After pulling it again, the lotus flower bloomed instantly, and a real butterfly appeared from it, a blue butterfly with a long black tail, fluttering into the flowers.

The stars don't come out of the sky, and the lotus flowers don't bloom in the water.

Just when everyone was amazed, the shape of the lantern suddenly changed again.

The lantern has changed back to its previous appearance, and the words written on it are carefully read, and the font is like floating clouds, like a dragon, and it is written exactly "There is nothing in the first place, where to stir up dust".

Full of Zen words and lotus flowers, everyone immediately felt that the lamp designed by Gu Jiming was very delicate and profound, and they praised it one after another.

"The lights designed by Gu Xiang are very ingenious, especially the butterfly, which is really outstanding!"

"Yes, it must be the top of this year's Thousand Lights."

The voices of praise are endless, more and more people are gathered here, He Xiangxiang smiled at this time, his beautiful eyes were full of affection, and a shallow pear vortex appeared on his pink lips, and he said sweetly, "Look at the lotus net, you should know that your heart is not stained." I don't know if Gu Xiang's lantern has a name? ”

Gu Jiming raised his head when he heard this, and there was a sea of stars in his eyes, He Xiangxiang's heart moved, revealing her most beautiful smile.

Gu Jiming looked away, fixed on Jiang Cailing, and said, "This lamp was originally meant to be given to you, and since you are present, you will choose a name." ”

When the words landed, not only Jiang Cailing was surprised, but the people around her also showed different looks.

Some are surprised, some are jealous.

He Xiangxiang stood in the first row, looking at Jiang Cailing's mediocre face, the handkerchief in her hand seemed to be about to be broken, she was naturally unwilling in her heart, how could He Ling'er, who was not as good as her in trivial matters, be able to enter Gu Jiming's eyes.

"Me?" Jiang Cailing stared at the apricot eyes slightly, seeing that there was no joke in Gu Jiming's eyes, she lowered her head and said softly, "Ling'er is only a shallow learner, and the name she gave may not live up to the lantern made by Gu Xiangqiao." ”

"It's okay, I believe you."

Six words came from the top of her head, and Jiang Cailing actually heard a little tenderness from them.

raised his eyes, and met a pair of cold eyes, not hiding half a minute of warm color.

Is it her auditory hallucination, Jiang Cailing pulled out a smile, the butterfly flew out of the blooming lotus, the lotus finally showed its blooming posture, but lost the butterfly.

If the lotus knew that the price of making it beautiful was loss, would it still make such a choice?

Thinking of this, he slowly spoke, "Then it's better to call it a ruthless lamp." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was first surprised, and then looked at each other, and a faint ridicule appeared on their faces.

The name of the lantern is to marry auspicious, this ruthless word is neither auspicious nor artistic conception, how can anyone name the lantern like this, it is really a joke, the daughter of the waiter "giggled", and said with an innocent face: "Miss He Wu is not a lot of Jianghu words, this ruthless word with a knife, fork and sword halberd is reluctant, and the ruthless lamp is the first time I have heard of it." ”

Jiang Cailing also smiled, she didn't want to be in the limelight, and everyone regarded her as a girl with mediocre qualifications, so she pretended to be ashamed and said, "I'll just say that I can't have a good name." ”

"If the lotus flower is not in full bloom, the butterfly will not leave, the lotus shows its most beautiful state, but loses the butterfly, and the infatuation is always ruthlessly annoyed, so this lamp is called ruthless, do you think so?"

Jiang Cailing was stunned when she heard this, and for a while she couldn't tell whether he was helping her out of the siege or really spied on her thoughts.

Gu Jiming's narrow eyebrows narrowed, and he didn't wait for her to reply and continued, "Infatuation is always ruthlessly annoyed, this name is good, this lantern is a ruthless lamp." ”

When the people who were originally mocking heard this, they felt a little Zen, and they couldn't help nodding their heads.

Gu Jiming ordered someone to take down the ruthless lamp and send it to Jiang Cailing's hand, "This lamp, send it to you." ”

He Xiangxiang's eyes flashed with unwillingness and jealousy and turned to leave, the crowd around him gradually dispersed, and when he arrived at the place of other lights, only Gu Jiming and Jiang Cailing were left under the ruthless lamp, Jiang Cailing really didn't know what to say to him, and in the face of a murderer who killed her, she couldn't be calm and pleasant.

Just look at the nose and nose and look at the heart, stand dumbfounded, and say nothing.

Gu Jiming approached Jiang Cailing, smelled the faint scent of orchids on her body between his noses, the black pupils in his eyes moved, and he opened his lips and said, "You have a good name." ”

"Thank you Gu Xiang for helping me out."

"Hiding wisdom is wisdom, but you should know that you hate deception the most."

"Oh."

There was a coldness in her eyes, and she didn't hate deception. The words on the flower note appeared in her mind, with a wry smile on her lips, it was difficult to return to the branches after falling flowers, how did the flowing water return to the west?

Feeling the warmth on her shoulders, Gu Jiming didn't know when she draped a snow-white cloak on her shoulders, and her cold voice was full of magnetism, like flowing water hitting a stone, clear and graceful, "You and I are getting married, and Benxiang is going to Liangzhou to treat the flood, and he will not be able to come back until at least half a month." ”

"Oh."

"You take care of yourself."

"Oh."

Suddenly there was a low laugh overhead, clear and pure, like the sound of jade. Jiang Cailing raised her eyes and saw a pair of smiling eyes. This is the first time she has seen Gu Jiming's real smile, and as she imagined countless times, people with good-looking facial features smile even better, changing the feeling of alienation and indifference in the past, Gu Jiming's smile is like a warm sun in the cold winter, bright and dazzling, and the jade mountain is toppling.

When falling in love, a woman is a fool.

The first time Jiang Cailing heard this sentence was on the first day she entered the palace, a grandmother said it.

Later, she learned that the grandmother was the emperor's favorite concubine when she was young, and she was decrepit and relaxed.

Mama said to Jiang Cailing that when she was favored, she was not inferior to Tang Xuanzong's favor for Yang Guifei.

She loves to eat peaches, Luoyang does not produce peaches, so Emperor Zhaohong ordered people to transport peach trees from thousands of miles away, and planted them behind her dormitory. It's just that the peaches that bear are sour and bitter, and later, they specially let people transport the peaches thousands of miles, riding the red dust, just for the concubine to laugh.

Whenever she encounters a sweet peach, she will let Emperor Zhaohong taste it, and the emperor also praises her for being considerate and gentle.

Later, with the emergence of new people in the harem, all of them looked bright and slender, and her color was not there, Emperor Zhaohong rarely came to her palace.

For the last time, the emperor seemed to think of her, and went to her palace after the next court. She dressed up and handed a bite of the sweet peach to his lips as before, she intended to evoke the old feelings of Emperor Zhaohong, but she angered Long Yan and threw the peach to the ground.

"You woman really don't know what to do, I remembered my old love to see you, but you let me eat your remaining peaches! Come on, reduce them to slaves, and move out of here on the same day! ”

After she had moved out in the morning, a newly canonized beauty came, and she looked from afar, as she had done then, with bright eyebrows and eyes, gentle and moving, and the palace maids and eunuchs who were rushing in all held gold trays with pink and juicy peaches on them.

It seems that she is also a woman who likes to eat peaches.

After speaking, the grandmother then took a broom and swept up the fallen leaves, and with the sound of "swish", she heard the voice of the grandmother sighing, "Falling in love, a woman is a fool, wasting her beautiful youth, and in the end it will be empty." ”

After Jiang Cailing became Emperor Zhaohong's confidant, she occasionally had a reward of peaches, and she had looked for her in the palace, but she never saw her again.

She didn't understand at the time why a woman would become a fool when she met love, and only treat that grandmother as nonsense. It wasn't until Gu Jiming's sword stabbed that he realized that the person was really right.

recalled carefully, Gu Jiming never smiled at her, she only thought that he didn't like to laugh, and always liked to make him laugh, but she didn't succeed once. If you really face the woman you love, why don't you want to laugh?

And now that she has become He Ling'er, she accidentally saw Gu Jiming's real smile, and the will of heaven is really hard to guess.

When she got out of her memories, Gu Jiming didn't know where she had gone, holding the lamp pole in her hand, feeling the weight of the cloak on her shoulders, and suddenly felt extremely heavy.

Looking around, although she knew everyone around her, and could even accurately tell their family background, she didn't have the slightest desire to speak.

After the Thousand Lanterns Festival dispersed, He Xiangxiang took the initiative to come to Jiang Cailing and asked her to go to the Jiuqu Bridge not far away to talk.

Ground white arboreal crow, cold dew wet osmanthus. At this time, it is late, the moon shadow is heavy, mottled and swaying, although the bridge is lit up, and there is a ruthless lamp in his hand, but it is still dark, no one comes and goes, there are few people around, there are only two of them on the whole bridge, the figure of the two is reflected in the river, the shadows of the trees are heavy, and it seems a little hidden.

He Xiangxiang had obviously been waiting here for a long time, his slender fingers were holding on to the carved pillars on the stone bridge, his thin clothes were blown by the autumn wind at night, his eyes looked at the riverside covered with lotus lanterns, and when he heard the footsteps, He Xiangxiang sneered and said, "Xiangxiang recently discovered that the fifth sister is really good at pretending to be stupid. ”

Jiang Cailing frowned, "I don't understand what you're talking about. ”

"Look, the fifth sister is pretending to be stupid again, if you are really as innocent as you seem, where will you seduce Gu Xiang so favored?"

"If you asked me to come here just to talk about these things, I don't need to stay."

"Why, I was told that my heart was empty?" He Xiangxiang's eyes touched the snow-white cloak and ruthless lantern on Jiang Cailing's shoulder, and a crack appeared on Yuexiang's face.

"He Ling'er, have you always treated me as a monkey, you are very happy to see me being played by you, right? You feel very proud to see Gu Relative to you wholeheartedly! You kept saying that I was the twelve noble daughters of Luoyang, and I was more worthy of Gu Xiang than you, but Gu Xiang still wanted to marry you. You feel a sense of accomplishment when you give me hope and see me disappointed, don't you? This cloak belongs to Gu Xiang, provoke him to pity, you are really smart! ”

The more he talked, the more excited he became, and he reached out to pull Jiang Cailing, who wanted to turn away, and his sharp nails slashed across Jiang Cailing's arm, and a little blood beads immediately appeared, dyed on the snow-white cloak, and from a distance, he only felt like a plum in the snow, and he admired himself.

Jiang Cailing was in pain, and shook off He Xiangxiang's entanglement in disgust, He Xiangxiang was defenseless, and was pushed to sit on the ground, and the carefully woven bun became messy.

Jiang Cailing's eyebrows and eyes were re-dyed with the momentum of when she was the queen mother, domineering, noble, and inviolable.
