Chapter 26: The Birth of the Dragon (16)
That night, the clouds covered the thin moon and the fog filled the hills. Jiang An had no intention of playing, so he lay down in a small boat and swung with the waves. The lake is like a mirror, the waves are not prosperous, but the boating people are not as silent as the lake in their hearts, or the waves are set off by thousands of waves, but they can only look at the river like a mirror.
He took a sip of warm wine, and lowered his eyes to look at the lonely moon reflected in the water. Close your eyes, but your consciousness is surprisingly clear, without a trace of tiredness, these days, for some reason, as long as you close your eyes, the scene of the red leaf forest seven years ago is in front of you, sometimes happy like a song, sometimes tragic like blood. The expedition will be set out in a few days, and the 10,000 horses of Donglai will face the 30,000 elites of the brave and good Qining people, plus the soldiers hidden in the so-called Dust Night Valley? Hidden soldiers in Dusty Night Valley, hehe, he sneered, he really couldn't think of anyone with such wisdom, and told King Donglai a secret, Dusty Night Valley Hidden Soldiers, Dusty Night Valley, Dusty Night Valley...... It's all dead there. At this time, the king's suspicion, the discord of Qi Ning, and all the spearheads are aimed at himself, and the trend of the world, under the calm, is the mountain rain is coming, and the undercurrent is surging. I often think of her lately, could it be that my death is approaching? Jiang An smiled bitterly, Awei, do you miss me? I miss you too. However, how can I die here, the great revenge is not avenged, how can I die here! He slammed his fist into the cabin, striking the hull of the ship and almost toppling it. In the sky, there was a drizzle, sprinkled in the middle of the lake, and flew away. Jiang An got up, poured himself a glass of wine, sat in the cabin, and drank alone.
Shu Yao Wang Mei is interested in herself? Hehe, he smiled bitterly, seven years together, the girl who was not the same in the past, has grown into a slim girl today, only complaining that she was not careful enough, and she didn't find Shu Yao's mind, now, how to tell her that in her heart, a woman lived in seven years ago, no, now, it should be said that she is a ghost. It's easy to get rid of a person in his heart, but how can he get rid of a wisp of fragrant soul that shattered the red leaf forest seven years ago?
Raised his eyes to look at Yuyun Pavilion, only to see the red candle in the Luo tent, the figure was confused, and in a blink of an eye, the red candle in front of the window gradually went out, the figure was mottled, the golden night beauty, and the hibiscus tent was warm. "Huh." Jiang An chuckled, raised his head and drank a glass of bitter wine.
The old dreams are vague, and the past is blurred. I remember that back then, Ah Wei was afraid of cold, lightning, and thunder, and that girl was like a porcelain doll, which would break when she fell, and she needed someone to hold it in the palm of her hand to care for her. Looking back, I was young and frivolous at that time, and I was really not gentle to her. He always taunted her, laughed at her, despised her timidity, and at that time, as soon as there was thunder, the porcelain doll-like man shrank into his arms in fear, and sometimes, when he was in a good mood, he would be generous once, and borrow her to shrink, and more often he was in a depressed mood, and walked away, leaving her alone on the bed and shivering. Now, the young man's shoulders have long grown strong enough, but the person in his arms, even if he wants to hug now, he can't hug it anymore.
Jiang An's hand at this time was a little shaky, he raised his head and drank a glass of bitter wine, he just sat in the cabin, poured himself a drink, looked at the drizzle outside the cabin, raised his glass but saw that Mingyue was shy, hidden behind the clouds, he couldn't help laughing, he was drunk alone.
Suddenly, I looked up and saw a person on the shore, dressed in purple, standing with a paper umbrella, looking at myself. The rain curtain was dense, almost wanting to blind his eyes, and from a distance, it looked like Ah Wei was holding an umbrella that day, smiling lightly, standing in the ancient temple and waiting for him to return. "Awei, is that you?" Jiang An muttered, hurriedly took the oars, docked the boat, and saw clearly the figure in the rain curtain, which was the Shiso girl who had just come to the shadow of the moon.
"Oh?" Jiang An saw that it was her, there was a trace of disappointment in his eyes, he smiled bitterly, this time, laughing at his own stupidity and confusion, Ah Wei has been dead for seven years, and now she has a glimmer of hope, it is really stupid! He smiled at Shisu, "Why did the girl come here alone?" ”
Zi Su didn't answer, raised his feet and stepped into the boat, collected the paper umbrella, sat silently beside Jiang An, grabbed his hand pouring wine alone, lowered his eyelids, and whispered, "The prince said, Zi Su will accompany you tonight." ”
Zi Su raised his eyes and looked at Jiang An's familiar face, but he suddenly looked at it blankly, his eyes were full of waves, and he looked at Jiang An, so he quickly lowered his head, and said in his heart, Brother Mu Yu, you didn't drink alcohol, and sighed, Brother Mu Yu, you have really grown up.
Jiang An was slightly stunned, grabbed her slender wrist with his backhand, took her in his arms, and smiled ambiguously, "I thought you were unwilling." ”
Shiso lowered his eyes and whispered, "The prince said that to be a maiko, you must have the promotion of a maiko." ”
"Do you mind?" Jiang An let go of her and poured another cup for himself. "Don't dare." She whispered a reply, then bowed her head and said no more.
"Hehe, don't dare." Jiang An smiled bitterly, repeated her words, and poured herself a cup of bitter wine. Zi Su couldn't help it, flipped his wrist, snatched the wine glass from Jiang An's hand, frowned and said, "Don't drink it." ”
Jiang An took off the wine glass in his hand, he was slightly stunned, glanced at Zisu in surprise, the gaze in his eyes turned calm, he laughed, "Yes, don't drink." After that, he grabbed the shiso and kissed it on the beautiful cheek, "Isn't it a waste of beauty on the side and drinking alone?" His lips touched the soft cheeks, and he felt her body instinctively shrink back, he hugged her in his arms, just smiled, and kissed all the way down the little face that exuded fragrance, until the neck, he gasped, suddenly turned over and covered her body, only to feel that her body was soft, like lying on cotton, Shiso was shocked, he didn't expect him to act like this, he was nervous for a while, struggling slightly, Jiang An looked up at her, the corners of his mouth chuckled, and he turned over, grabbed the wine glass on the case, played with it, and looked back, "You are not a maiko." ”
Zi Su got up, her whole messy clothes, and she was so frightened that she only lowered her head and didn't distinguish it. I only heard Jiang An's ambiguous voice, and said slowly, "In terms of dancing, there is indeed no one in the world who can compare with you, but when it comes to maiko, Mei Ji alone is enough to surpass you a hundred times." ”
"Oh." When Zi Su heard this, he raised his head slightly, a little distracted, "The prince likes Mei Ji?" ”
"Nope." Jiang An smiled and turned his head to look at Shisu, "When I was young, I lived in Rongcheng and spent a period of time with a girl," he looked at the rain curtain outside the cabin, and saw the drizzle flying, his eyes were slightly sad, "I was young at that time, and I couldn't tell what it meant to like." Jiang An put the wine and said to himself, he shook his hand and smiled bitterly, "It doesn't matter today, Yiren is alone." He looked up and drank the bitter wine, smiled abruptly, and glanced back at Shiso, "If she were still alive, she would be as old as you." ”
"The prince came alone in the rain, but he remembered the girl?" Shisu raised his hand to take the wine glass in his hand, quietly put it on the side of the desk, got up alone and took the oars, and propped it up towards the center of the lake. In the rain curtain, she looked back slightly, "The prince is affectionate, that girl must be grateful in her heart, but it's a pity that the face is weak, the man has passed away, and the prince should not worry." ”
"Oh?" Jiang An stood up, lay on his side in the cabin, rested his head on his arm, and teased, "It's better to come alone for a boat than to stay in the perilla room, the girl is stunning, Jiang An is not a willow Hui." ”
"Haha." Zi Su stood beside the boat, covered his mouth and chuckled, took Jiang An's golden cup, threw it in the middle of the lake, looked back and smiled slyly, "In this way, the prince will not be able to drink." ”
"It's terrible, it's terrible." Jiang An shook his head, tsk, his eyes were slightly closed, and he said slowly, "The girl from the flower shadow moon, although she is in the dust, is like a fairy in the nine heavens. ”
Zi Su looked at the dripping rain, her eyes were sad, she covered the corners of her mouth, Lingling smiled lightly, Jiang An got up, hugged her behind herself, rubbed her cheeks, and when the roots of her ears grinded, she asked, "I don't know what kind of story Zi Su will bring me tonight." ”
Zi Su covered his mouth, raised his hand and pointed at Jiang An, and turned around with a sneer, "Even if Zi Su says it, the prince won't believe it." ”
"Oh?" He saw that she broke free from his embrace, and he no longer insisted on it, but just turned his head to look at the calm lake, and his thoughts were full of thoughts.
The breeze is blowing, the night is as silent as water, the summer day is full of smoke and rain, like the pearls sprinkled by the clouds, ding ding dong scattered on the water surface, dripping on the lotus leaves in the lake, rolling up the spirit pearl on the dark green, rolling a few times, suddenly falling into the water, annihilation without a trace.
A page of flat boats rose in the lake, drifting with the flowing water, and if you looked closely, there was a man and a woman standing beside the boat, with grinding ears and whispering softly. Zi Su turned around and pushed away the hand that wrapped her waist, turned around, gently shook the skirt, purple clothes and silk, smiling in the drizzle, just like that day, Mo Ruowei rotated among the flowers, Yan Wu Yingge, suddenly looked back, and asked lightly, "Brother Mu Yu, is it beautiful?" ”
"Beauty." Jiang An lost his mind for a moment, and actually muttered such a thing in his mouth. At that moment, Zisu was distracted, Zi Su saw it in her eyes, and suddenly her figure was stunned, and she laughed desolately, she was five steps away from him, and a silk scarf covered her mouth and smiled, with a sad look in her eyes, "If I say that Zi Su was originally a princess of a clan, and she was helpless under the collapse of the country, and the flower shadow came to live in the moon, just to wait for one person to return, do you believe it?" ”
She suddenly leaned over, bent down with a smile, raised her hand and pointed at Jiang An, "If I say that Zisu is threatened by people, unable to return to the sky, deeply gracious, and bad things are done, and the flower shadow moon comes to live, just to round a shocking lie, does the prince believe it?" ”
"Hahaha," Jiang An smiled with a soothing palm, raised his hand to carry the wine jug, turned out a golden cup in his hand, and threw it at the woman leaning over in front of him, Shisu's eyes lit up, she turned around suddenly, flipped her slender hand, and caught it skillfully, she raised her head and met Jiang An's gaze, "Guess right, you are really not an ordinary maiko." Jiang An's eyes wandered, staring at her for a short while, before he moved away, and said slowly, "Originally, I thought that you could tell what kind of miserable life experience, being kidnapped, or having a poor family to pay off debts," he suddenly sighed, "I didn't expect it to be so tragic." ”
"Oh?" Shisu was slightly surprised, stepped forward, raised his hand and asked, "The prince actually believes it?" ”
Jiang An took a few steps into the cabin, as if he didn't hear her surprise, he lay down again, and said to himself, "A beautiful woman like a girl, she is really unbearable, I wanted to send you away secretly, but now it seems that such thoughts are really ridiculous," his eyes closed slightly, and a chill hit, and he coughed slightly, "Your martial arts are enough to stand alone, why do you need help?" ”
