486 Floating Dreams
The figure was half-leaning against the carved balustrade, almost ethereal.
The handsome hand holds the delicate luminous jug, and idly fills the wine glass.
The wine is crisp and the sound of the water is clear, like a moving nocturne.
He took the jade cup, sent it to his lips, sipped it gently, and then turned his gaze, looking out of the pavilion, as if looking at the sparkling lake in the distance, and like appreciating the autumn chrysanthemum in the garden, half cold and half spring eyes drooped slightly, his eyes were hidden behind the curly black eyelashes, only the corners of his lips were slightly upturned, as if he was laughing, and he seemed to sigh.
There was a shallow sound of footsteps, and the corners of the lips were really smiling.
He turned his gaze and followed the prestige, but saw a delicate figure standing outside the pavilion.
On such an autumn night, the figure was dressed very thinly, and the light gauze fluttered gracefully, like a butterfly perched on the petals of a flower fluttering its wings, ready to ride the wind.
And yet they came to him......
The night wind ruffled her long hair, and he reached out his hand, but only touched a wisp of green silk.
"Why are you wearing so little?"
She didn't say anything, just sat across from him, and set an object on the table.
He found out that she had come with a piano.
Smiled wryly, his eyesight had been getting worse and worse lately.
However, he still looked at her for a moment, watched her tune the strings, and audition......
Tonight, she is wearing a goose yellow gauze dress, which is so beautiful......
This color flattered her perfectly, but she only wore it once, on the night when the two of them first met......
He narrowed, a deeper smile on his lips.
But the vision became more and more blurry.
The deep night is like smudged ink, devouring the tender goose yellow little by little. She is like a fluttering petal about to sink into the icy waters.
No, not her, but ...... He, it was he who sank to the bottom of the lake and looked at her fluttering on the other side of the water......
The strings swiped, shedding a string of clean notes, breaking the silence and desolate dreams.
The corners of his lips were cold and soft.
Holding the pot, pouring the wine, the jade cup was gently squeezed, and it was brought to his lips......
As if the night rain had just stopped, the rain was dripping and swirling on the tips of the emerald green bamboo leaves, and finally dripped to the quiet lake, accompanied by a crisp sound, which once again stirred up a little ripple, and there was a mischievous wind shaking the branches and leaves, so the water droplets slipped down in strings, and suddenly disturbed the dream of a lake.
The ripples spread, cutting through the coolness of the lake, and the night began to sing.
At the beginning, it is very soft and graceful, like a beautiful woman's wonderful eyes, and the middle section is extremely beautiful, like a beautiful woman singing and singing, gradually to majestic, like a mountain flowing water, stirring up the mist to rise and fall, galloping thousands of miles, and there is no lack of tenderness tossing and turning, as if the light yarn surrounds the flowing clouds and flying mist, and the dance is light.
Micromoon, light stars, light clouds...... Reflected on the surface of the lake, all in the breeze through the forest gaps, in the intoxicating clear sound of broken, flickering, a little bit of crystalline, dazzling......
In a flash of light, he watched as she walked towards him, took his hand, and helped him sit down by the piano.
He smiled, and with a flick of his long fingers, the same tune was unmistakably from his fingertips, flowing from the strings, and once again spreading out the dazzling tranquility of the eyes.
In the sound of the piano, he seemed to see her dancing.
The light yarn brushed in front of him from time to time, teasing the emanation of his sideburns, bringing a strange fragrance.
It's her taste, his favorite taste to the bones.
He took a deep breath and smiled deeper.
The night was too thick and too bright to obscure her figure, but he could still appreciate her dancing gracefully through the soft sound of the bell on her dress.
The fragrance was permeated, the bell was clear, and he seemed to see her shake off the mink wind, dancing in the jumping firelight, and in the amazement of the people.
It was the first time he had seen her dance. At that time, she was angry because of Yuwen Xuancang's indifference, and danced with Prince Luogo.
He watched her slender figure weave through the crowd, dancing in the firelight, so many people cheering for her, but she was so lonely...... Suddenly, he had a strong desire to take her for himself, to isolate her from this earthly world, to go to a world with her......
He didn't know how he got close to her......
He took her into his arms, looking at the surprise in her eyes, he stretched out his fingers, just to soothe the grievances in her eyebrows.
But he let her go, but he was by her side, dancing with her, accompanying her whenever and wherever he was, watching her and protecting her whenever and wherever he was...... But now, how long can he protect her?
The second time was at the Lingbo Palace, where envoys from various countries gathered. Her father was furious that she had once again refused to take a concubine for him, and embarrassed her in public.
It's good for her, she just wants to lose everyone's face.
It's just that dance, it's really amazing.
He watched her sing and dance, her whirling figure like a fluttering rhododendron that caught all eyes.
She swept past him several times, and he couldn't help but catch the fluttering flower several times, but he repeatedly let her go, accompanied only by the sound of the flute.
Because he knows that they are inseparable at all times and in all places.
Then, he took her away and went on a long journey to live a free life.
Jinling, I want to be with you whenever and wherever I am, but ...... How long can I stay with you?
There was a hint of strangeness in the heart again, but it was no stranger. In the past, every midnight, he would probe the appearance of the brain, and he would suppress it with internal force, but now, they have broken through the barrier of internal force and wandered around, reminding him of their existence at any time. The only thing he could do now was to cut off the cold, heat, pain and itching all over his body, otherwise he really couldn't guarantee that he would appear in front of her so leisurely, he couldn't let her feel his strangeness, no!
But some things can't be hidden after all, and when he first found a bug lying on his wrist, he knew that he couldn't stay with her for long.
There are more and more bugs, often appearing inadvertently on the skin, slowly wriggling. They slowly gnawed away at his body until they gnawed him into an empty shell.
Yuwen Xuancang must have thought that he was unruly and deliberately embarrassed him for the sake of the throne, but how can he stand on top of the court in this state now? He had to be so cautious about getting close to his own woman that she had been looking at him with a little resentment lately.
In this case, it will be ugly when she dies, will she be afraid?
He tried to look at her, but he only saw a faint shadow of goose yellow fluttering in the night, like a shawl flying in the air.
Jinling, I know your intentions, you learned that the holy decree was made today, and you were worried that I would be sad, but you didn't know how to comfort me......
You think I'm in a bad mood, so I ran to this mountain to blow the cold wind and drink alcohol, but in fact...... Only then will the bugs be quiet.
I don't want to die yet, I want to spend some more time with you. I'm not as decisive as you, I haven't arranged anything, I thought we'd be together for a long, long time.
Even though King Guangling has already said that our "fate is about to end", even if I do everything I can, I must break this proverb. I don't know if I'm winning or losing now.
Jinling, please forgive my eyes for not being able to appreciate your moving dance anymore, but I already have the most beautiful dance in my heart, no matter when and where, I will always be connected......
The sound of the piano was like water, messing up the silent night, and in the inky rendering, a light veil floated towards him......
Raising his hand slightly, the Liulan fell into the palm of his hand.
With just a slight tug, a soft and fragrant body fell into his arms.
The sound of the piano stopped, but the afterglow did not cease, and the wind swirled in the pavilion with the faint sound of strings, and then rolled over the curtains, through the treetops, and slid towards the sparkling lake......
"Do you blame me?"
Her face was blurred in his eyes, but he still accurately picked up her messy sideburns and pinned them behind his ears: "What kind of song is this?" It's so nice. ”
"Reflection." Her voice was choked.
"Dreaming" ......" The smile on the corner of his lips was as flickering as his voice, but it was extremely elegant and clear: "Good name!" ”
Is the seven years of him and her also a dream reflected on the water, and now he is about to wake up......
"Xuanyi, will you blame me?"
If it weren't for her, there would be no such decree as it is today, it literally robbed him of everything, and he was such a proud man.
Why, why did you choose Yuwen Xuancang in the first place? And apart from her, no one saw the edict at all, why did she ......
If she had known today, would she have ......
He has struggled for so many years, born and died, and what he has today is well-deserved and deserved, but she ruined it all with her own hands. The words and words of the holy decree are like a heart.
If it weren't for her, he would not have "framed" King Xiang and "forced" Chang Xiang to rebel, and he almost died.
If it weren't for her, he would not have given up the important position of auxiliary government in the imperial capital, and took over the matter of arranging the sacrifice to the sky, but he was taken advantage of by Yuwen Xuansheng and impeached by the ministers, which is also the line between life and death.
If it weren't for her, he wouldn't have left Tianluan City without authorization at the critical moment of investigating Yuwen Xuansheng's whereabouts, just to avoid her worries and his concerns.
If it weren't for her, how could he "say goodbye" at the banquet for the envoys of various countries, and "leave Beijing without permission" and take her on a "long trip"?
If it weren't for her, how could he give up everything he had painstakingly managed for many years, "delayed or even shirked the affairs of the court several times", "disobeyed the emperor's orders", just to find her whereabouts?
If it weren't for her, how could he let Lu Xiao and Chu Sheng go? Because they were her benefactors, he was grateful to them with the same feelings as himself.
He is such a person with clear grievances, and such a person who values love and righteousness!
And the "fate" that has been circulating for a long time...... He is just to fulfill a dream of "wishing to have one heart, and the white head will not be separated", otherwise, he can use marriage to grow his power, and the harvest at this time must not be comparable to that day.
But he didn't want to sell his feelings.
He is such a pure person, how can this purity become his crime?
What do you say about "forming a party for personal gain" and "buying people's hearts"?
Is marriage with a courtier a "party"? Does giving those women a glorious status counts as a "buy"? And how many marriages did he refuse for her?
