Chapter 17: Evasion

The scenery of Qixia Mountain is very beautiful, this season, the maple leaves are already red, like the face of the girl Huaichun, which makes people look excited. . .

There is a maple pavilion on the mountainside, built near the water, standing in the pavilion, the beautiful scenery of Qixia Mountain is in full view.

At this time, the pavilion was full of people, and from a distance, the people in the pavilion were like paintings, blending into the mountains and rivers. . .

Xiao Qingyue and a few people, walking and stopping all the way, looking at the scenery of green mountains and green waters, she couldn't help but take a deep breath and smell it well... As royal ladies, such opportunities to travel are rare for them...

At this time, Xiao Youyu also sighed, "What a beautiful scenery, I really want to live here."

When Xiao Qingyue heard this, she couldn't help but glance at the man behind her, and then teased.

"After you become a parent, let your husband take you here to live permanently, as long as you want, and as long as you want"

"Qingyue! You're talking nonsense again. The girl said coquettishly.

Shen Yuzhang couldn't help but twist his eyebrows, looking at what he was doing...

Xiao Qingyue glanced at the shy person, thought about it, slowed down, walked side by side with the person behind her, and asked pretending not to care.

"I don't know if General Shen is in his twenties now?"

After a while, the man replied, "I am the same age as Imperial Doctor Su, and I am forty out of twenty this year."

As soon as she heard him mention Su Xing, the girl couldn't help glaring at him, and then asked, "Have you ever thought about marrying a wife?"

"You should have known about this for a long time"

"Me?" Xiao Qingyue was stunned. After a few seconds of pause, she remembered what he had said last time, 'I'm here to meet my future lady'

Then she frowned and said, "General Shen, I'm not joking with you."

"I'm not kidding, what I said before, I was serious"

"You!!" Xiao Qingyue suddenly had a feeling of digging a pit and jumping by herself, and the good impression she had just raised for him was beaten back to her original form at this moment.

Xiao Youyu, who was walking in front, listened to the conversation between the two, and his eyes couldn't help but darken...

And Shen Yuzhang looked at the person who was anxious to jump his feet funny, although he was said to be a military general, but for so many years, he had seen a lot of this kind of men and women, and he knew what Xiao Qingyue wanted to ask.

"Does the princess want to ask, do I have someone I like?"

Hearing him say this, Xiao Qingyue suddenly scolded herself for being naΓ―ve in her heart, how could she forget, Shen Yuzhang is an old Jianghu, what does she want to ask, he has already thought of it... She originally wanted to pull the strings for Youyu, but now she is lifting a stone to hit her own feet...

"Forget it! I don't want to know! As she spoke, she strode forward angrily.

At this time, Forsythia exclaimed, "Look, princess, there is a pavilion in front of you."

A few people looked in the direction they pointed, and sure enough, a picturesque pavilion not far away appeared in sight. And the people in the pavilion are even more picturesque.

Forsythia looked excited, the four beauties of men and women in Jiankang City are all here today... It's really rare to see in a hundred years.,It's a pity.,This time the pothos didn't come together.。。。

Xiao Qingyue looked at the people in the pavilion, thought for a while and said, "Youyu, why don't we rest here, there are so many people in the pavilion, I'm afraid there is no place to sit."

Xiao Youyu also watched for a while, she thought that Xiao Qingyue was having trouble with Su Xing, so she thought about it and agreed.

But she was wrong ... Compared with Su Xing, Xiao Qingyue was more afraid of meeting the other two...

Shen Yuzhang touched his nose and didn't say anything, he knew what Xiao Qingyue was afraid of, and then sat down on the stone on the side...

Forsythia couldn't help but be depressed, it was like arriving at the door, but she chose not to go in, she couldn't understand what her princess was thinking...

And at this time, the people in the Maple Pavilion had already seen them...

In addition to Su Xing and Shen Momei, who were traveling together, there were also Sima Chufan's brothers and sisters, as well as Yin Jun and his wife, and... Xiao Nanfeng...

Here, Xiao Qingyue was thinking about whether it was time to go back, and it was not a way to sit like this, but when she was thinking so. A man came out of the pavilion and was walking towards them...

Xiao Qingyue recognized him, he was Xiao Nanfeng's close guard. Instantly, the uneasy emotions slowly expanded in her heart...

Li Xun came to a few people and said respectfully, "Meet the two princesses, the young general."

"Yes. . . What's the matter" Xiao Qingyue was so nervous that she couldn't even speak...

"The prince instructed his subordinates to invite a few people over to enjoy the scenery together"

The most scared thing is to come, Xiao Qingyue couldn't help but swallow her saliva, she didn't want to go, but she couldn't blatantly refuse, what could she do. She couldn't help but look at Xiao Youyu beside her with a bitter face...

Xiao Youyu knew that she didn't want to go, so she replied softly, "Thank you for your kindness, I suddenly felt a little headache just now, so I rested here."

At this time, Shen Yuzhang on the side also interjected, "That's right, when the princess is rested, we will return the same way."

Hearing Xiao Youyu say that he was unwell, Li Xun replied,

"Then my subordinates asked Imperial Doctor Su to come and have a look."

When Xiao Qingyue heard that she wanted to let Su Xing come over, she hurriedly refused, "No! As soon as she finished shouting, she noticed her gaffe...

At this time, Xiao Youyu hurriedly took over, "Don't bother Master Su to come over deliberately, I'm just a little tired, just go back and rest, it's rare for everyone to come out and get together, don't spoil the fun."

Li Xun didn't know what they were nervous about, so he saluted and went back...

Seeing that the people were gone, Xiao Qingyue quickly got up and pulled Xiao Youyu and returned the same way...

In the Fengfeng Pavilion, everyone looked at the opposite side, and when they saw that people were leaving, Xiao Yuyao, who was sitting, said in surprise, "Why did Sister Yue go?"

Sima Han on the side was dissatisfied, "The prince has sent someone to invite, and he actually left like this" When the words fell, she received a reproachful look from the other side. Sima Chufan was signaling her with his eyes not to talk nonsense...

"Xu Yes, maybe there's something urgent" Shen Momei took over, her impression of this princess was still good.

At this time, Yin Jun sat aside with a somewhat indifferent face, not knowing what he was thinking...

And Xiao Nanfeng, who was standing on the other side, still had a calm expression, and the corner of his eyes swept over the man in white who was facing away from everyone and looking at the lake...

There are a lot of people in the pavilion, each with their own thoughts...

At this time, Li Xun came back and reported the conversation with Xiao Qingyue just now, all the same to Xiao Nanfeng...

After a while, the man in white, who had been staring at the lake just now, slowly turned around and said.

"Since the Jade Princess is unwell, then Su will leave first"

Hearing this, Xiao Nanfeng's deep eyes flashed imperceptibly twice, and his gaze met the man with a calm face.

"Master Su is really responsible"

"The prince laughed, this is outside the palace, and it must not be sloppy"

"What Master Su said is that this king is not thoughtful"

"The prince is serious"

。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。

This is not unusual to the ears of others, but for the more sensitive people, it is different...

The interaction between the two fell in Xiao Yuyao's eyes.

Time in the mountains seems to pass very slowly...

The back mountain is a rushing river, and the monks in the temple are washing their clothes by a stream. Some maple leaves flew down from a great place and eventually fell into the stream, drifting away with the current.

Xiao Qingyue stood not far away and stared at the fallen leaves, thoughtfully, after sending Xiao Youyu back, she ran here alone in a daze...

It didn't take long for a familiar cold voice to sound behind her.

"What are you looking at?"

Xiao Qingyue turned around in some surprise, how could he appear here.

The two were not a few steps apart, looking at each other quietly...

Xiao Qingyue wanted to find some clues from that calm face, but after looking at it for a long time, the man's face was calm in addition to calm.

Is he hiding too deeply, or is he thinking too much...

Xiao Qingyue would rather believe that it is the latter...

She then smiled and said, "Why are you here?"

"I heard that Princess Jade is unwell, I'll come and take a look"

"Oh".

Su Xing looked at the somewhat listless person with a calm gaze, thinking of the moment he was pale when he saw him and Shen Momei together in the Southern Courtyard before.

He asked, "You don't have anything to ask me?" ”

Xiao Qingyue was stunned for a moment, she understood what he meant, and then smiled lightly, "I don't want to ask"

"Why"

"I believe in you"

Hearing her say this, the man's gaze sank instantly...

After a while, the man's voice came again, "If one day, you find out that I lied to you, will you hate me?"

Hate? Xiao Qingyue felt a pain in her heart, and then she smiled, "It depends on what you lied to me."

At this moment, Xiao Qingyue seems to be no longer the innocent girl, mature, and with a different temperament...

She is like this, which makes men look at it all of a sudden.

Su Xing retracted his gaze a little unnaturally, walked to her side, and the two looked at this great river and mountain side by side...

He couldn't help but hope in his heart, hoping that the years in the mountains could pass slowly, slowly...

Let him stay away from the world, avoid reality, and enjoy it all ...

But such an expectation was then broken by a sentence from someone around him...

'Whatever you're going to do, don't hurt her'

Last night, the conversation between the two lingered in Xiao Qingyue's mind, and after pondering for a long time...

"Su Xing 。。。。。"

"Huh?"

"I have something I want to ask you"

The man turned his head sideways, his eyes revealing tenderness, "Well, I'll listen."

"You。。。。。。。 Will you marry me? ”

The man frowned suddenly, and his eyes instantly became cold, how could he have thought that it was such a question...

Xiao Qingyue was a little afraid to look at it, the man's expression at the moment, she unnaturally tightened her clothes.

"My mother said that since the two of us are in love, she will make the decision and ask her father for a decree to marry us."

It took her twelve points of courage to ask this sentence, and every minute and second of the man's silence was a great test for her。。。。。

But...

Except for the long silence ... Still is... Silent...

Xiao Qingyue's heart, from the beginning of nervousness, expectation, gradually turned into calm, disappointed...

In the end, she only waited for three words...

"I'm sorry"...
