Jian Huaizhen came to Huaiming Garden, which made Fang Xiao and Jiang Shaoheng very happy, they hurriedly welcomed Jian Huaizhen in, and saw that Jian Huaizhen was only dressed normally, and he also carried a burden in his hand, which was very strange.

Jiang Shaoheng was smart, and he had already thought that Jian Huaizhen was here to resign, and he felt gloomy in his heart for a while, and he couldn't say a word.

Fang Yu opened his mouth and asked, "Sister Princess, why did you dress up like this today and come to Huaiming Garden?" But what's the matter? ”

Jian Huaizhen glanced at Fang Xiao, smiled reluctantly, and said to Fang Yu: "Brother Fang, I came here today to bid farewell to you, and I have already decided to go back to Jiangnan." ”

Jian Huaizhen's words surprised Fang Xiao's heart, but Jiang Shaoheng had already expected it, so he was not surprised.

Despite this, he still felt that his heart was heavy for a while, and the whole person was like being thrown into a cold pool, and he was speechless for a long time.

Fang Xiao smiled reluctantly and said to Jian Huaizhen: "Sister Princess, why do you suddenly want to go back to Jiangnan?" Isn't this capital city good? ”

Jian Huaizhen said deeply: "It's not bad in the capital, but I can't get back those times in Jiangnan." Now that Qingqing is dead, I want to return to Jiangnan. Settle in seclusion, live some unrestrained days, and never ask about this earthly matter again. Fang Yu heard Jian Huaizhen say this, and his heart sank suddenly.

He originally stayed in the capital because it was nothing more than Jian Huaizhen, but now Jian Huaizhen is going to drift away alone, so what's the point of him staying.

Therefore, he also clenched his fists and said to Jiang Shaoheng: "I have been in this capital for a long time, and I am tired of the deceit and competition for fame and fortune in the capital, and I also want to find a green mountain and green water to go to seclusion." Brother Shaoheng, don't let Fang Yu say goodbye. ”

Jiang Shaoheng originally wanted to tell Jian Huaizhen that he wanted to go to Jiangnan with her to live in seclusion, live in seclusion in the Osmanthus Lane in Jiangnan, and stay there for the rest of his life.

But when he heard that Fang Xiao was about to leave, his heart suddenly became hazy like a layer of fog.

Since Fang Yu said this, he must have already had a plan, he must not have given up on Jian Huaizhen, he must have wanted to follow Jian Huaizhen to Jiangnan to Liu Yan Shuangfei, why should he bother himself.

Thinking of this, Jiang Shaoheng reluctantly smiled and said, "Since this is the case, Brother Fang Yu and the princess sister will say goodbye, I hope to have a chance to meet again in the future." ”

Before Jian Huaizhen came to Huaimingyuan, he felt in his heart that "a hundred steels are made into finger wrapping softness", and the overlapping hearts only felt like they were entangled.

But when she heard that Jiang Shaoheng did not keep herself, nor did she propose to go to Jiangnan with her to live the days of double accommodation and double flight, she only felt cold, as if she had fallen into a cold pool for ten thousand years.

Originally, she thought that she no longer cared about her children's personal affairs, but when she saw Jiang Shaoheng, she knew that she was wrong.

Twenty or thirty years ago, the two of them used to be in love, but they couldn't be together for various reasons. Now they have the opportunity to be together, but the two seem to be separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, and as for what separates, Jian Huaizhen can't say.

It's just that Jiang Shaoheng refused to go with her, so he knew that Jiang Shaoheng might not have a heart tied to her for a long time.

Jian Huaizhen smiled faintly: "In that case, let's say goodbye, I hope to meet again." ”

After speaking, Jian Huaizhen walked out of Huaiming Garden and walked towards the white horse step by step.

At this moment, her heart had already flown into the dense osmanthus alley.

And Jiang Shaoheng watched Jian Huaizhen and Fang Xiao leave one after the other, and his anxious heart seemed to be oozing blood.

He never kept her, maybe it was fate that the two of them couldn't be together.

Tang was shocked to look at Jiang Shaoheng's dejected appearance from the side, and couldn't help but step forward and ask, "Uncle Jiang, are you okay?" ”

Jiang Shaoheng smiled reluctantly and said, "What's wrong with me." ”

Tang Jingshan sighed and said quietly: "The word love is the most tiring, I know that Uncle Jiang still can't let go of the princess and aunt in his heart, why don't you chase her back?" Or accompany her to Jiangnan to live in seclusion? ”

Jiang Shaoheng shook his head a little helplessly, and he said, "You are still young, and there are some things that you still don't understand." Sometimes two people don't say that they can be together if they want to be together. ”

After Jiang Shaoheng finished speaking, he went straight into the room.

Tang looked at his back in shock, and couldn't help sighing: "Life is a lover, and this hatred has nothing to do with the wind and rain." ”

Jian Huaizhen rode a white horse all the way to the south of the Yangtze River.

Fang broke up with Jian Huaizhen after leaving Huaiming Garden, and he did not follow Jian Huaizhen all the way to Jiangnan.

Because he knew that Jian Huaizhen's heart was no longer here, what could he do with her.

Fang Yu went to find his green mountains and green waters, and lived the days of idle clouds and wild cranes.

As soon as Jian Huaizhen thought of Jiang Shaoheng, she felt depressed in her heart, she didn't understand why Jiang Shaoheng didn't keep her.

The two of them have gone through so many years of ups and downs, twenty or thirty years have passed, and now they have ended up like this, she smiled bitterly when she thought of it.

After several days, Jian Huaizhen finally returned to the ordinary alleys of Jiangnan.

Yanliu Jiangnan, ordinary alleys, warblers and swallows, small bridges.

Jian Huaizhen returned to the small courtyard where she and Bai Qingqing once lived, and the small courtyard was still the same, with strange willows and green eyes.

But now her sister Bai Qingqing, who has lived with her for more than 20 years, has turned into a wisp of soul and is no longer in this world.

Jian Huaizhen gently raised her hand to remove the dust that had accumulated on the windowsill for a long time, and she cleaned the house again, leaving the white and clean room spotless.

The white Qingqing Yaoqin is still in the original place, and the dumb girl's favorite thing in the past is to play a song when she has nothing to do.

At this moment, he can only cry to Yaoqin.

After Jian Huaizhen cleaned up the house, he sat alone in front of the window, looking at the osmanthus outside the window.

At this moment, Fang Xiao wandered to the end of the world and wandered somewhere.

And in Huaiming Yuan, is there still a woman in Jiang Shaoheng's heart?

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that her heart was heavy and anxious, and in the end, it was as thick as an ink cloud in the sky, and it could no longer be dissolved.

Jian Huaizhen lived in Jiangnan in this way, and Mo Shanghua returned with money and lived a free life.

In her spare time, she practiced swords and piano strokes in the small courtyard, and her days were completely living in memories.

In the memories, there are green grass, blue sky, a smart encounter, her affectionate brother, and Bai Qingqing, who has been trapped by love all her life.

When she was fine, she went alone to the river outside the alley to fetch water.

Every time she returned from fetching water, looking at the bustling crowd, she felt an indescribable sense of desolation in her heart.

When the sun sets, she likes to walk down the alley alone. The clogs under her feet stepped on the bluestone slab, making a "tick-tick" sound, which was as beautiful as the melody of life.

At the end of the alley is a teahouse called "Dust Washing Fang".

This Jiangnan is such an exquisite place, even a small teahouse, all have such a beautiful name.

Wash the dust, wash the dust, wash away the dust of a lifetime, and welcome the travelers who return from the end of the world.

Jian Huaizhen has nothing to do, so he likes to go to the small teahouse at dusk and sunset to drink tea. She sat in Aoki's chair and quietly reflected on the past.

The past was like a cloud of smoke, one by one unfolding in front of her, and soon turned into smoke and dust, never to be found again.

She likes such quiet days, and she still has a thought in her heart, she hopes that one day Jiang Shaoheng can suddenly appear by her side, dressed in white, and say to her I came to Jiangnan to accompany you.

At that time, her heart would be full of flowers, but this day did not come.

On this day, Jian Huaizhen practiced his sword for a while, stroked Yao for a while, sat alone under the windowsill, and thought about the past for a while, then changed his clothes and walked out of the alley.

She came to the "Dust Washing Workshop", asked for a pot of tea as usual, and sat alone on the Aoki table and chair, watching the clouds roll up and change unpredictably.

Suddenly, she heard a commotion next door, and when she looked back, it turned out that there were many people surrounding a woman, and the woman seemed to be a singing woman.

Dressed in white clothes like snow, the woman was emaciated, and her long hair flowed like a waterfall on her shoulders.

Jian Huaizhen only saw her back, not her real person.

There were several vulgar men around her, and everyone spoke foul language, and one of them said: "Little beauty, you are so beautiful, how do you sing in this teahouse?" It's better to accompany the uncle to be happy, the uncle rewards you with silver flowers, how about raising you? ”

Jian Huaizhen saw that the girl shook her head, and where the ends of her hair trembled, Jian Huaizhen's heart suddenly sank, she felt that this scene seemed to be seen before, and this girl was indescribably familiar.

Before she could come to her senses, she saw another man pulling at the girl's shirt and said, "Why are you buried here when you are so beautiful?" Let's go home with my uncle. ”

The two men pushed and shoved, and the girl's clothes were torn by the rude man.

The onlookers let out a snort.

Jian Huaizhen couldn't hold back any longer, she picked up the teacup in her hand and gently threw it out.

The teacup flew to the man pulling the woman in white as if it had eyes. The hot tea in the teacup spilled steadily over the man's body, and then the teacup flew back into Jian Huaizhen's hand as if it had eyes.

In fact, what Jian Huaizhen used was just ordinary internal force, hitting things in the air, but how did those people know.

The man screamed at the burn, and he turned around and said angrily, "Who the hell splashed me with tea?" ”

The people around looked at each other, dumbfounded.

"Who the hell is it? Get out of here, if you don't get out, Lao Tzu will smash this teahouse. The man roared, toeing high.

Seeing this, the shopkeeper hurriedly stepped forward and apologized: "Uncle, uncle, please don't take the small shop out of anger, the small shop is a small business, if anyone accidentally burns you, I will compensate you." Please don't take it to heart and forgive us. ”

Seeing Xiao Er's cautious behavior, the man became even more proud, and he said, "Hmph, you have scalded Uncle Ben, do you want to stop like this?" If you want to give up, you will first compensate Uncle Ben with 1,000 taels of silver as medical expenses. Second, let us take this woman away. ”

The shopkeeper spread his hands helplessly and said, "Uncle, our small shop is not worth a thousand taels of silver, where can I compensate you for a thousand taels of silver?" Besides, she's just singing here, and we don't have the right to give her to you, do we? Besides, this girl is a mute girl, will you like it? ”

"What? The dumb girl is still singing, who are you fooling? ”

The man raised his hand and slapped the shopkeeper, who covered his swollen face and said sadly: "Uncle, everything I said is true, this girl didn't rely on singing, she relied on playing the piano, and the piano she played was very good." Why don't I go and ask her to play a song for my uncle, so that you can dispel your heart? ”

The man pouted and said, "What, I burned me, a song can be used to pass the time, you think about beauty." I don't care if she's a dumb girl or not, I have to bring her back. There are still 1,000 taels of silver, and I will smash your small shop if it is less. ”

Seeing this, Jian Huaizhen said calmly on the side: "How about you who I scalded with hot water just now?" ”

The man turned his eyes and saw a lady in her forties and fifties sitting on a green wooden table and chair by the window.

Although the lady looked dressed in coarse linen, she looked elegant, not like an ordinary lady.

The man was afraid of provoking some dignitaries, so he was stunned and said, "Don't confess here, you are so far away from me, how did you burn me?" It's not your business, so don't rush to admit it, I won't pursue you for the time being, you don't have to meddle in your business. ”

Jian Huaizhen still didn't change his color, and said word by word: "I scalded you with tea just now." ”

After saying that, she poured a new cup of tea and used her internal force to throw the cup of tea out.

The teacup seemed to have eyes, and poured the tea on Dahan, and the teacup flew back into Jian Huaizhen's hand.

The big man's eyes were round, like two brass bells, he had never seen such a strange thing.

The onlookers were also so frightened that they screamed and shouted, "There are ghosts, there are ghosts." ”

Jian Huaizhen smiled and said nothing, quietly watching them panic.

At this time, a man dressed like a person in the martial arts walked up to the man and said to his man: "Don't be afraid, this is not a ghost at all, but a profound martial art." Unexpectedly, there is such a hidden dragon and crouching tiger in this small town in the south of the Yangtze River, and there is such a master hidden here, admiring and admiring it. ”

When the people around heard that Jian Huaizhen was a martial arts master, they all felt incredible, especially the shopkeeper of this teahouse and the shopkeeper.

Every day, they saw Jian Huaizhen drinking tea here alone, and there used to be a woman in white who sometimes accompanied her. But now the woman didn't come again, and every time she was alone and alone. Jian Huaizhen looked no different from ordinary people, but she didn't expect her martial arts to be so strong, and she couldn't help but look at Jian Huaizhen with a look of help.

When the man heard that it was not some evil magic and ghosts that were doing it, but just martial arts, the fear in his heart was reduced a little.

He looked at Jian Huaizhen and said with some hesitation: "Whether you use evil arts or martial arts, I advise you not to trouble me." The name of the blue-headed Wang Hansan has not been heard in this town, and it will not end well if he offends me. ”

Jian Huaizhen smiled slightly, and said softly: "I limit you to leave immediately, and you are not allowed to come to this teahouse to make trouble in the future." ”

The blue-headed Wang Hansan had long been frightened by Jian Huaizhen's momentum, but he felt that he would just leave, and he would not be able to raise his head and be a man in the town from now on.

Therefore, he clenched his fists and threatened Jian Huaizhen and said, "You dare to let me go, you are so bold." You leave me right away, or I'll have you good-looking. ”

Jian Huaizhen didn't speak anymore, she casually took out a chopstick from the table and chair, folded it gently, and threw it at the blue-headed Wang Hansan.

The chopsticks were not biased or slanted, and they were piercing the forehead of the green-headed Wang Hansan.

The blue-headed Wang Hansan only felt dizzy for a while, and suddenly fell to the ground, unable to get up for a long time.

Finally, someone helped him up, he looked at Jian Huaizhen and said with horror: "Woman, are you using evil arts or martial arts?" If it is martial arts, how can there be such shocking martial arts in the world. ”

Jian Huaizhen smiled and said nothing.

Seeing her like this, the blue-headed Wang Hansan felt more and more frightened, and hurriedly crawled out of the teahouse.

The rest of the onlookers were also afraid of ending up like this, so they dispersed in a hurry.

The shopkeeper and the shopkeeper immediately went forward and bowed and thanked Jian Huaizhen.

Jian Huaizhen waved his hand and said, "That's it, this is a quiet place, and I don't want to be disturbed by others." ”

After speaking, Jian Huaizhen took out the silver from his sleeve and put it on the table, turned around and wanted to leave.

Suddenly, the woman in white, who had been sitting in it and being teased, turned around, and she walked up to Jian Huaizhen and saluted her, as if thanking her for saving her life.

Jian Huaizhen smiled and shook her head, but the first time she saw the woman in white, her whole body froze there.

She felt like she was dreaming, but if it was a dream, could it be so real?

The woman in front of her had black hair like a waterfall, two willow eyebrows that seemed to be frowning, a pair of dark eyes, and very fair skin. That smile, every move, is like Bai Qingqing living in the world.

She doesn't look very similar to Bai Qingqing, but when she stands in front of you, you can't help but associate her with Bai Qingqing.

In terms of appearance, she and Bai Qingqing are only six or seven points similar at best. But their temperament, the elegant beauty, and the extraordinary temperament are exactly the same.

Jian Huaizhen was shocked, and she couldn't help but take two steps back in a row, pointing at the woman and asking, "Who are you?" ”

The woman's eyes widened and she looked at Jian Huaizhen with great trepidation, she nodded, shook her head again, and made a gesture.
