Chapter 52: Floating Life and Getting Drunk (1)
At that time, because Mrs. Xue was also present, she didn't ask much, but after dinner, she fed the mosquitoes alone on the shore of this lake.
Thinking of this, she heard the familiar footsteps not far away, Yumo got up and looked up, and a plain white figure slowly walked towards her with a palace lamp.
You don't have to look closely, she already knows who it is.
Whenever he sees him, he is always in this state of being a fairy, everything around him is like floating clouds and flowing water, he is like a fairy who comes from the clouds, and his handsome posture is a person like her, and she must also be moved.
"Brother Qing, has you always been good?" With bright eyes and bright teeth, he asked softly, he was slightly stunned, a little stunned, the ink girl he was familiar with had already grown up unconsciously.
Look at her slender figure, her small face lined with pink and white clothes is as cute as white jade, the jet-black hair is scattered, moving with the breeze, and on the delicate face, the ink-black eyes seem to be smiling but faintly with a hint of inexplicable sadness. His heart tightened suddenly, and he couldn't help but raise his hand to brush her cheek, and his sudden movement made her stiff and not dare to move.
After a while, he finally lowered his arm and said with a faint smile: "I haven't seen you for many days, and the girl is getting more and more stunning!" ”
Yumo heard Xuanyuan Qing's words, and in an instant, his cheeks flew up to the red glow, and after being stunned for a moment, he finally replied softly: "Brother Qing said that he laughed, Mo'er is just mediocre, how can he be worthy of the word 'stunning'?" ”
As soon as he closed the palm of the palace lamp, the sound of the joints clenching was particularly clear in this night, knowing that she had a heart, but still couldn't control the heart that had already sunk for her, her smile had already been engraved in his heart, and when he was out on patrol, if he hadn't been accompanied by her in his dreams, how could he survive until he returned to Beijing. He often hated himself, and if his fourth brother was domineering, she might be his woman.
But he is such a humble gentleman, even though the love for her in his heart has long been crazy, he can still pretend to be casual on his face and talk and laugh with her.
Sensing his strangeness, Yumo retreated slightly, deliberately widening the distance from him.
In the face of her alienation, his heart had already cried blood, but the warmth in his eyes forced this love into his heart, allowing his heart to flow into a river.
Raising his eyes to look at the bright moon in the sky, he paused, then looked sideways at her, and asked, "Hong'er gave you those red beans?" Do you like it? ”
Yumo nodded and chuckled: "I like it!" Of course I do! It's hard for Brother Qing to work so hard outside on patrol, and he is still worried about coaxing Mo'er to be happy! This bean is so special, Mo'er watched and smelled it carefully in the afternoon, and there was a slight hint of tranquil fragrance! The mother also said that this color is very rare, but it is a pity to put it so scattered, Mo'er took it upon herself to wear a bracelet with needle and thread, Brother Qing, look, is it good-looking? Yumo raised his right hand, and his long sleeves slid down instantly, revealing his slender and white arms, and a string of blood-like bracelets on his wrists were very dazzling under the moonlight.
Xuanyuan Qing looked at the red beans on her wrist, her heart suddenly rejoiced inexplicably, her whole body trembled slightly, and her hand carrying the palace lamp also trembled a little, her phoenix eyes were full of brilliance, and her tone of voice was also a little trembling: "Good-looking!" It's good if the girl likes it! ”
Looking at her coquettish gestures, the worry in his heart finally faded away, and she was still her, and she had not changed.
He never told her that the red bean she was wearing on her wrist was not an ordinary red bean, this bean was born in the south, commonly known as "acacia bean", which has the effect of driving away evil spirits and avoiding suspicion, and it is also a thing of lovesickness between folk men and women.
If she knew what it meant, she might not want to wear it on her body. At present, he deliberately concealed it out of selfishness, but he just hoped that this string of acacia beans could bless her for a safe life.
It's just that King Rui didn't expect that this string of little acacia beans not only failed to protect her safety, but caused her a lot of trouble.
On the day of Concubine Mei's sacrifice, Emperor Fuxuan ordered the waiter of the Ministry of Rites to go to Qingyun Temple on the outskirts of the city to do a grand ceremony.
The king of Qin wanted to go to the imperial tomb to worship, so he told the waiter to prepare a lot of things early, and then told Yu Shunquan to go to the prime minister's mansion to send a message to Yumo, preparing to take the opportunity to take Yumo to the suburbs to ride a horse and relax.
On this day, before the time came, Jiang Yumo was dressed neatly and was ready to go to the West Gate to meet Xuanyuan Che. Only then did he pull Chiyun out of the stable, but he saw Zhuying with a depressed face and led the horse into the stable.
"Big Brother Bamboo Shadow! What's the trouble? "Bamboo Shadow has always been a person who is moody and invisible, but today her face is full of sorrow and does not hide it, no wonder she is confused.
Zhuying was clearly thoughtful, it can be seen that she asked, but she deliberately avoided it, and hesitated for a while before saying: "Thank you Miss for your concern, my subordinates still have important things to do, so I will retire first!" After saying that, he tied the reins in his hand to the wooden bolt, and then walked away with a slight salute.
Seeing that he was evasive in his words, he had something to hide, but he didn't want to say it, and she didn't want to ask again. Although Yumo was suspicious in his heart, he had no choice but to make an appointment, so he had to lead Chiyun to the mansion.
Xiangfu, Zhiyi Garden.
Zhuying's face was heavy, and he half-bowed down and whispered something to Jiang Chengze, only to see Jiang Chengze's face instantly pale, and his hand holding the bookcase trembled.
"Is the message accurate? Where is this person now? After a long time, he asked in a dumb voice.
"Back to the Prime Minister, the news is indeed true! That person has now been taken by Shen Can to the prison of the Criminal Department to be strictly guarded, according to Yan Ming, when Shen Can interrogated him for the first time ago, he did say that he was ...... by Xiangye" Zhu Ying said and looked up at Jiang Chengze, not knowing whether to continue to speak.
Jiang Chengze heard that his body was unstable, he sat down on the bamboo chair, waved his hand to signal that the bamboo shadow didn't need to say any more, and then stared blankly at a plaque given by Emperor Fuxuan on the wall.
The plaque is made of gold lacquer, and there are four big characters written by Emperor Fu Xuan himself, "Hundred Officials Model".
It's early autumn, the weather is no longer hot, and the breeze is still a little cold at night.
The hour is still early, the city is as quiet as night, Jiang Yumo is riding a horse galloping in the city, but the kung fu of the two pillars of incense, the West Gate Tower has come into view.
Yumo caressed Chiyun's neck, and as if she knew her thoughts, Chiyun slowed down and walked forward meekly, snorting low.
Before he walked out of the city gate, he had seen a familiar plain white figure outside the city gate from a distance, with a tall posture, and when the breeze rose, the clothes were fluttering, elegant and dusty.
"Brother Che!" After this shout, Yumo's cheeks turned red unconsciously, and every time she saw him, she always couldn't suppress the joy in her heart, knowing that he would never respond, even if she heard it, she just glanced at her coldly. But even so, as long as she can see her, her heart is as sweet as honey.
