The Qiluo nationality is really very beautiful, the wooden bridge and flowing water red lanterns, the bluestone road of the ancient road guest lane, the houses are mostly blue bricks and gray tiles and horse head walls, black and white are reflected, and they are scattered. It's a beautiful and bustling town.
It stands on the highest part of the canyon, protected in the center, and a field of trees as far as the eye can see, no matter where you stand, the refreshing fragrance of the leaves and the faint mist soothe Bai Hanyan's restless heart.
Chang Fengxuan arranged them into the palace city of the Qiluo people, saying that it was the palace city of the Qiluo people, but in fact it was a city within a city, sitting high in the city, the high platforms were stacked and scattered, the palace flew eaves and wing corners, looking from afar, the white tiles of the houses of the Qiluo tribe surrounded it layer by layer, protecting it in the center, and there was a kind of majestic king's atmosphere that people did not dare to look up to.
After moving in, Qiao Chu looked back and just explained a few words to Mo Yun lightly, and left alone.
Chang Fengxuan naturally lives here, he didn't shy away from raising his eyes to look at Bai Hanyan, his eyes were bloody and dark, Bai Hanyan knew that he, like Yang Zhao, wanted her life to avenge his father, but he couldn't do it at the moment when he took care of Qiao Chu.
Bai Han Yanyun raised her eyebrows lightly, turned around and went back to the house, she didn't take Chang Fengxuan's hatred in her eyes, she could see life and death at the moment.
It wasn't until the night was falling and the golden crow was hidden, she pushed open the window, leaned half against the window, and looked at the large sparkling pond outside, it seemed that the summer of the Qiluo tribe was more intense than that of the Central Plains, and even the pink and white lotus flowers in the pond drew out countless lotus tips, which were pink and lovely at night.
Bai Hanyan took a deep breath, the elegant green eaves surrounded by the mist like colostrum, the moonlight was tender yellow, the sky was blue, and the mountain breeze was narrow with a cool and faint smell of leaves, washing away the filth of everything, including people's hearts.
"Why, the white girl can't sleep well?" A soft and soft voice came from the wooden bridge across the pond, Bai Hanyan frowned, the night was dim, she saw the silhouette of a person standing faintly on the bridge porch from a distance, she couldn't tell the appearance of this person, but she was dressed in red, floating on the moonlight, a gorgeous mass like a mouthful of blood from a jackdaw.
Bai Hanyan closed his eyes and laughed faintly, this person didn't have much intersection with her in the capital, but he also had a few faces, at least ...... The fierceness when she took the lancet to cut her lower abdomen, Bai Hanyan still remembers it clearly.
"Isn't Miss Luqi also sleepless in the middle of the night, unable to sleep?" Bai Hanyan said softly, turned around and walked to the door, walked out with his legs raised, took out the fire fold in his sleeve and reached out to light the lantern on the lintel, and suddenly, the firelight shrouded the faces of the two women in a dim halo.
Lu Qi slowly approached her, Bai Hanyan raised her eyes to look, at this time the look in her eyebrows did not seem to be as depressed as when she first met in Changfu, and the ruthlessness and determination stretched out from the corners of her eyebrows and eyes a little bit, the wind in the pond pulled her red clothes, and the dazzling eyes unfolded violently in the wind, like a scarlet flag, and the people who shook were a little dizzy.
Lu Qi looked sideways at the gentle peach under the lantern, and Lu Qi sneered: "White girl, I am different from you, I can't sleep today, I can make up for it tomorrow, but Bai Girl......"
Lu Qi paused with interest, with a bewitching smile, Lianbu moved lightly to Bai Hanyan's side, his waist was like a willow, his willow eyebrows were raised, and he said with some ill intentions: "I'm afraid that the white girl will cherish the days of sleeping in bed more, I'm afraid that if you sleep for a while, you will miss a while." ”
"Miss Midori is here to remind me?" Bai Hanyan's eyes turned, he glanced at Lu Qi, a touch of cunning rose in his eyes, and he suddenly sighed: "In this way, how about we make a bet?" ”
Lu Qi was slightly stunned, and the smile on her face also paused, she didn't know Bai Hanyan's means, she saw it many times when she was in the capital, and then she quickly came back to her senses, and shook her red sleeves disdainfully and sneered, her subordinates were defeated, she said casually: "I don't know what the white girl wants to bet with me?" ”
"Just bet on ......" Bai Hanyan's narrow phoenix eyes were filled with a gleam, and the deliberately elongated tail note trembled on the tip of Lu Qi's heart: "Just bet on whether Chang Fengxuan will not want you?" ”
As soon as Bai Hanyan's words fell, Lu Qi seemed to have heard a funny joke, the wide gauze sleeves covered the red lips and smiled phoenix eyes, and the crisp sound of the tassels on the head colliding softly: "White girl, you are really funny, Feng Xuan is not only my father-in-law, but also my childhood sweetheart's cousin, the two of us have been urinating since childhood, childhood sweetheart, he loves me deeply, how can he be disappointed by me?" ”
Bai Hanyan leaned on the doorpost, her phoenix eyes were shining, and her eyes were soft, Lu Qi smiled inexplicably under her gaze, and snorted disdainfully with her hanging sleeves: "Don't you compare me with Zi Yan and Liu Yan, the two rouge vulgar fans in the Qinglou, to tell you the truth, Xianggong and them are just playing on the spot, without a trace of true feelings." ”
"In that case, do you dare to make this bet with me?" Bai Hanyan's voice was very soft, ethereal floating, raised her eyebrows and laughed a few times, seeing Lu Qi's expression, she hooked her lips and said: "Mo No, Miss Lu Qi has no confidence in herself, and she still doesn't dare to put the bet on your husband Chang Fengxuan." ”
"Why wouldn't I dare?" Lu Qi was suddenly angered by Bai Hanyan's words, and her eyes sharpened: "Bai girl, Lu Qi knows that you are very smart, but I, Lu Qi, am by no means a straw bag, since you have set up a gambling game, this bet can be set by me, do you dare?" ”
Bai Hanyan smiled with a smile in his eyebrows, shrugged his shoulders and said, "I want to hear it in detail." ”
Lu Qi raised his head suddenly, and his phoenix eyes were full of hatred and grief, and he sent out a sharp mang: "I know, even if you are tied up with the patriarch at this moment, he may not want your life." ”
Her words made Bai Hanyan's heart tighten, and her eyes sank slightly, her grudge with the Qiluo clan was also quite deep, the Qiluo patriarch didn't kill him, firstly, for Qiao Chu to protect her, and use her to contain Duan Changge, and secondly, to ...... It was also for the huge amount of tax money left by his father.
"I'm going to gamble with you." Lu Qi squinted slightly, and his blurred peach blossom eyes suddenly became fierce, and released two fine lights: "Xianggong hates you so much, if it weren't for the fact that you are still useful, I am afraid that when you are in the abandoned workshop that night, you will die at my hands, but now yours is not very useful, and you will not lose much if you kill you, but Xianggong's wish, Bai Hanyan, do you dare to gamble with me?" ”
Bai Hanyan looked at her appearance, and suddenly remembered what Wang Xin had said, the mouth of the green bamboo snake and the needle on the tail of the wasp, neither of which is poisonous, the most poisonous woman's heart, somehow she laughed out loud, "Okay." ”
Seeing that she responded so simply and indifferently, Lu Qi was a little flustered at the moment, twisting her sleeves and being a little unsure, Bai Hanyan looked at her with a smile: "Don't worry, I don't want your life, if you lose, just do one thing for me." ”
"What's the matter?" Bai Hanyan's words made Lu Qi's heart fall, but it fell into the water, suddenly stirring up a thousand waves, at this moment, she suddenly didn't believe in herself, nor did she believe in her beloved cousin Feng Xuan.
"Don't worry, you'll know." Bai Hanyan raised an eyebrow at her, turned around and walked into the room with a light smile, and locked Lu Qi out of the door.
Lu Qi was now under the lantern, her eyes were blood-stained and she stared at Bai Hanyan's closed door silently for a long time, only to feel a tightness in her chest, she turned around and left, suddenly she seemed to think of something funny, her eyebrows trembled, and she smiled: "Bai Hanyan, don't be too happy, there will be fun tomorrow." ”
Bai Hanyan didn't sleep all night, she knew that she had joined the Qiluo clan, and her real catastrophe began.
On the second day, she was forcibly escorted away by a group of guards wearing ghost-faced suits who suddenly broke in, Bai Hanyan had long known that there would be this scene, so she did not resist, and obediently followed those ghost-faced men out, until these people pushed her to the door of the main hall before she paused, Bai Hanyan raised her eyes and saw that this was actually an ancestral hall.
At this moment, someone opened the door, and those behind her pushed hard, and she was mercilessly thrown into the hall by several people like a broken bag.
Bai Hanyan's back fell the red marble floor, the pain made her frown, and she couldn't help but cry out in pain, but Bai Hanyan didn't complain much, and calmly raised her body from the ground, but saw that in front of her was the side of the deep ancestral hall, the wide offering table and altar, the eight or nine inches of lattice layer by layer, all the tablets densely placed on it were tablets, incense and candles, and white smoke curling.
Bai Hanyan couldn't help but feel short of breath for a while, and then she lowered her head, feeling a little sad and sorry in her heart, after all, these people may have died because of her father's words, but Bai Hanyan always believed that her father definitely did not intend to reveal the secrets of the Qiluo clan, although she didn't know the inside story, and it was impossible to know now, but she believed in her father, and believed that he was definitely not a person who didn't believe in his words.
"White girl, I wonder how you feel when you look at these spiritual positions?" A thick man's voice came from behind Bai Hanyan, with a deep sense of majesty, Bai Hanyan, this person is undoubtedly the patriarch of the Qiluo clan.
She slowly turned around and looked up at the main hall of the ancestral hall, the furnishings were simple and solemn, on the stone steps of white marble, several pear blossom wooden chairs were slanted from the center downward, and a few people were sitting on the chairs, Qiao Chu was also inside, looking at her with a faint expression.
It's just that Bai Hanyan's gaze passed over the person sitting on the chair on one side, and she couldn't help but be stunned on the ground, sluggish and stupid, and her body was like a cold heart like falling into an ice cave.
The man was not wearing a red robe, and the pale white brocade robe was a little too cold, and his face was particularly cold and ruthless, and Bai Hanyan saw him for the first time that he was not wearing a scarlet robe.
The man supported himself with one hand, tilted his head and lowered his eyebrows, his eyes fell to the side coldly, he didn't look at her, but he suddenly burned Bai Hanyan's heart, and there was a burst of pain, as if he was pricked by a knife and a needle, the fog under her eyes was surging, and she couldn't help but glance at the person who had been away for a year but was like a world away, and silently pronounced his name in his heart: "Long Song ......"
