Chapter 10: Meeting

Frost took a hot bath, changed her clothes, and looked for a book to look at under the lamp.

Yan'er, who was cleaning up on the side, glanced at Ning Shuang from time to time.

The girl hasn't touched a page of this book for a long time, right?

After cleaning up, Yan'er didn't bother the condensation cream and went to the outside to do needlework.

Ning Shuang took the book for a long time, and finally simply got up and pushed open the window.

The sky outside the window was dark and dreary, with no moon or stars.

The night in the mountains is so quiet that it is as if the whole world has fallen into a deep sleep.

The mountain breeze at night is a little cool, but it makes people's minds clearer......

Inexplicably, the frost that was originally a little anxious suddenly remembered the masked man he met halfway up the mountain during the day.

There seems to be a very familiar feeling, but I can't tell where it is familiar.

Ning Shuang raised his hand and rubbed his temples, his eyebrows were tangled, what is familiar?

I don't know such a person, do you?

……

After thinking about the people I was going to meet for a while, I couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

I can finally go and meet them...

Frost felt as if she was in a dream, and she couldn't remember how many times she had recognized them in her dreams......

After entering Beijing, I was also impulsive and wanted to secretly go to see them in the dark, but I finally held back......

The lights in the room were a little dim, and the fine sand leaking unhurriedly from the hourglass on the small table next to the window seemed to fall directly into my heart......

Frost was still pondering here, but there was a slight sound of footsteps in the courtyard, followed by a low voice.

After a while, Yan'er said outside the door: "Girl." ”

"Come in."

"Your Highness has sent a message from there, please come over." Yan'er pushed the door in, looked at her back standing by the window, and whispered.

"Okay." Frost let out a heavy breath before slowly turning around after a moment.

Yan'er took the cloak and stepped forward to put it on her, and watched her figure slowly disappear at the other end of the corridor, so she went outside to get the sewing basket, turned on the lamp on the table, and waited for the frost to come back while doing needlework.

When Ning Shuang arrived at Qin Moyu's room, Lu Ming and Yan Zhe had already arrived.

Qin Moyu had already put away his usual hippie smiling face, and was talking to the two of them, when his frosty eyes swept over his face.

Qin Moyu nodded at her with a smile, took out two token-like things, and handed them to her.

Ning Shuang stared at his hand silently, feeling that fine beads of sweat appeared in her palm, she clenched her hands, and slowly let go, and finally reached out to take the sign in his hand, hesitated, and walked step by step towards the wall carved with peach blossom reliefs on the side.

She accurately inlaid the brand in her hand in the two places of the relief, turned her head to look at the wall a few times, her dark eyes flashed with an unusually bright light, and she reached out and gently covered one of the peach blossoms in the large carved peach blossom bush that bloomed just right, and slowly turned the peach blossom with a little force.

Just listen to the muffled "creaking-" sound.

The relief wall slowly separated, and in front of everyone appeared a narrow door that could only be passed through, connecting a long, endless corridor.

Several people glanced at each other and walked inside one after another.

Qin Moyu walked last, took the token off the wall, and then flashed in. The door was closed from the inside, and the outside wall was restored to its original appearance.

The walls of the corridor are lined with torches, one every few dozen steps.

The light was a little dim, but it didn't affect the vision of several people.

Several people walked silently in the corridor for about two moments or so before they reached the end of the corridor.

Frost reached out and pressed the handle of the torch at the end of the wall twice, and the door at the end of the corridor slowly opened.

……

In Qingsuyuan, the eldest princess and the concubine in the study were drinking tea absentmindedly. The eldest lady Ji was waiting on the side, looking at the hourglass on the side from time to time......

The eldest prince Xiang Ling set up a game of chess on the side, playing with himself and himself.

"Wait, wait, no hurry!" The colt patted the eldest princess's hand and whispered reassurance.

The eldest princess's originally well-maintained face was already clearly wrinkled and tired, and her eyes were even more blue and black, and there was some pain and anxiety on her face that could not be hidden, and her eyes were slightly red.

The eldest princess closed her eyes and did not speak.

Back then, I heard that Liu Shaoqian plotted rebellion and killed his brother to steal the country. The eldest princess and the concubine were anxious, especially when they heard that Xiang Wan was missing, and the two children also fell off the cliff and died, the eldest princess didn't mention it in one breath, fainted, and woke up as if she was several years old all of a sudden......

Over the years, the Eldest Princess's Mansion has sent many people to Ye Kingdom to inquire about the news, but there has been no result......

A few years ago, Qin Moyu suddenly sent news to Xiang Wan, and not only the news of Xiang Wan, but also the good news that Qingyue's sister and brother were safe.

Everyone in the eldest princess's mansion was overjoyed and slightly relieved.

If it weren't for the fact that they couldn't act in a high-profile manner, the eldest princess and the concubine would have to go and meet their siblings in person immediately.

It's just that when she knew that Qin Moyu knew about their sister and brother early on, but hid the news from them, the eldest princess was so angry that she scolded him well.

Qin Moyu could only listen, but he was also very innocent!

Although I am not worried that someone in the princess's mansion will leak the news, I can't help but prevent someone from secretly staring at it......

Since receiving the news from Xiang Wan and Qingyue, the eldest princess and the concubine have been looking forward to meeting their siblings as soon as possible.

Listening to the low sound of "squeak-yah-" finally sounded. Several people looked at the carved wall on the left side of the study.

Each courtyard of the Peach Blossom Inn has several such rooms with carved walls, and no one pays special attention to these walls on weekdays.

The eldest princess and the colt stood up suddenly, and they didn't know whether they were too anxious to get up or because they were too excited, and the eldest princess's body shook.

The horse hurriedly helped the eldest princess steady, and said with concern: "Don't worry, save the child from worrying." ”

The eldest lady and the eldest prince also looked at it with concern, and the eldest lady hurriedly stepped forward to hold the other arm of the eldest princess.

The eldest princess shook her head at a few people, her breath floated slightly, and said; "I'm fine"

After speaking, he didn't care about anything else, and his eyes were firmly fixed on the carved door that was slowly opening......

As soon as Ning Shuang came out of the corridor, he saw a few people nervously guarding the study.

Everyone was staring at themselves with burning eyes......

Ning Shuang stopped, she carefully looked at these unfamiliar faces in front of her, as if there were thousands of pounds under her feet, and the whole person couldn't move, only letting those complicated and indescribable emotions slowly spread into her limbs from the bottom of her heart, drowning her whole person......

She has never shed tears since she left Ye Kingdom, but her eyes are uncontrollably red at this moment.

Several people looked at each other fixedly for a long time, and Ning Shuang seemed to regain a trace of clarity and strength, she slowly spoke, her voice was as soft as a dream: "Grandfather, grandmother, aunt, cousin, ......"

Although she endured it, as soon as she opened her mouth, the tears still couldn't be stopped, she blinked slightly, and desperately forced the mist gathered in her eyes back.

"Yue'er ....."

"It's Yue'er......"

"Good boy ......"

"Cousin.....

Several people responded at the same time, their voices choked.

The eldest princess stepped forward quickly, took Qingyue's hands, and looked at it carefully, although she couldn't see the lively and lovely shadow of her childhood, but the beautiful face in front of her, which was six or seven points similar to Xiang Wan, would not be wrong. The eldest princess couldn't help but wipe a few handfuls of tears, and choked up: "Okay, good, it's really our Yue'er...... I'm not dreaming...... Good boy...... Good boy ......"

Qingyue finally forced back the mist in her eye socket and quickly gathered again.

Gently withdrawing his hands from the eldest princess's hands, Ning Shuang reached out to hug the eldest princess, and said softly: "Yes, it's Yue'er, Yue'er is not filial, so you are worried!" ”

"Silly childβ€”" The eldest princess's tears fell down one by one, and she couldn't hold them back.

"Over the years, you have suffered hardships......"

"Yue'er is not bitter, it's just that Yue'er is incompetent, she hasn't been able to rescue her mother, and she hasn't been able to avenge her grandmother and father......" Qingyue gently leaned her head on the eldest princess's shoulder, her voice trembling slightly.......

Although the pain in my heart has never subsided for a moment, at this moment, there is a peace in my heart that I have never felt in the past few years.

The eldest princess already has white hair on her head, and it is not easy for nobles like her to grow gray hair......

The eldest princess raised her hand and stroked Qingyue's long satin-like hair, and her heart was sour for a while......

"Silly boy...... How can I blame you, your mother, she ......"

"It's all sin! How could Liu Shaoqian be so ruthless and inhumane...... Your father treats him well......"

The eldest princess was heartbroken, hugged Qingyue and muttered, at this moment, she is no longer a noble and elegant eldest princess, but just a most ordinary mother and grandmother......

The horse, the eldest lady and the eldest prince also had red eyes, and the eldest lady wiped her tears a few times with the handkerchief.

The concubine patted the eldest princess on the back, choked up, and said, "What are you doing with these things to tell the child, Mo Pingbai makes the child even more sad." ”

"I ......" The eldest princess was speechless for a while, only wiped a few more tears, thinking that there were still many things to ask Qingyue slowly, although she was a little reluctant, she still patted Qingyue's back and let her go.

She took Qingyue's hand and sat down at the table.

Qingyue thought of Qin Moyu and the others who were still in the corridor, and looked at the horses who were still blocking the entrance of the corridor: "Grandfather, Your Highness, they are still inside!" ”
