Chapter 16: The Crescent Moon of Memory

Ximen Zhe has figured out everything five years ago, before Mrs. Peach Blossom gave Xing'er poisonous fruit, he did meet Li Xueyun, according to the boy who saw Li Xueyun and Mrs. Peach Blossom together, the time of the meeting between the two should be before he went to the garden to pay tribute to the spring peach.

After the Spring Peach Qiqi Festival, Ximen Zhe changed to go to see the Spring Peach once a month, which lasted until the end of the year. The time when the two of them were found to have met was on the eve of the day when he was going to see Chun Tao, a day that Li Xueyun, who often went to Guandi Temple, was most familiar with.

That is to say, even if Ximen Zhe did not go to Guandi Temple with Li Xueyun that day, Li Xueyun would invite him to see the group of children when he came back from the garden and "bumped" on the way, and would definitely try to facilitate this matter, and then take the opportunity to drug him.

In this way, she can not only get rid of the suspicion of her involvement in the drug through the mouth of Xing'er, but also have the opportunity to become the antidote to Ximen Zhe, who has been poisoned, ** to him, copy the means of Su Ranhua marrying into the North Wangfu to become the princess of the West.

It's a pity that the sky has eyes, and after five years, he still found the clue and was revealed by the boy. At this time, Ximen Zhe had already arranged the sixteen-year-old boy to work outside Beijing, and Li Xueyun was still kept in the dark for thinking that he was smart, and he didn't know the truth was revealed.

And Ximen Zhe didn't want to provoke the calculated incident five years ago, so he decided to use another method to destroy the marriage contract that Li Xueyun forced in the name of Chun Tao.

Ximen Zhe's words directly gave Li Xueyun's future, Mo Qinghan knew that Li Xueyun was completely out of play, Ximen Zhe said this, not only a simple refusal, but his expression was not an ordinary anger, Li Xueyun clearly did something to annoy King Xi, and it was not an ordinary degree.

What is it? Mo Qinghan was a little curious, thinking back to the situation when he was cleaning up Mrs. Peach Blossom's corpse, and let him rack his brains to guess what might have happened under such circumstances back then.

Ximenzhe leaned back in his chair, squinted his eyes slightly and squinted at the side, and a bird flew gently by the window edge.

Just like the woman back then, she hurriedly crossed his life, but did not leave any news, as if she had never appeared, but just had a panicked dream. But—

The edge of the back of his chair rested on the back of his head, leaving a scar there, the only evidence that the woman had really appeared, and it could not be erased.

Moreover, whenever he thinks of that trembling face in the light rain, his clear and moving appearance, it is a fresh memory for him, sometimes it takes him back to his eleven-year-old youth, and sometimes it takes him back to five years ago, when he was almost standing. Such a crossover made him want to see her again, and even get her again.

"The prince thinks of that crescent moon again?" Mo Qinghan saw that Ximen Zhe was lost in thought, so he asked boldly.

Maybe it was the last thing he saw, Ximen Zhe remembered the crescent moon birthmark on the woman's waist very deeply, so that every time he saw the crescent moon, his heart would move inexplicably.

"Lord Wang, what does the crescent moon have to do with the woman you are looking for?" Mo Qinghan asked, he had seen Ximen Zhe draw a crescent-shaped thing, and he didn't know what it was, but seeing that Ximen Zhe had compared that thing with the portrait of that woman, he thought that it should be related to that woman, but this clue Ximen Zhe never told him, and all the questions were his guesses alone.

This time, Ximenzhe still didn't answer.

Mo Qinghan's eyes flashed, staring at a piece of paper placed on the desk in front of Ximen Zhe, leaning over, turning the paper over, and sure enough, it was still the portrait of the woman.

The woman in the painting is not a peerless beauty, but she looks very comfortable, with a pair of smart big eyes, and the dress of the girl next door, with a bit of quiet and pleasant atmosphere, as if she does not belong to the noisy street market, and should be accompanied by quiet green mountains and green waters.

In order to find someone, Mo Qinghan has memorized the appearance of this painting, and has become the second person in the past five years who has "never forgotten" this woman, except for Ximen Zhe.

Mo Qinghan found that the woman in the painting had a charm similar to the current queen's mother, perhaps more similar to the Miss Su he saw in Wan'an Temple in the memory of King Xi.

Mo Qinghan has heard a little about the matter between the King of the West and the Queen Mother, it seems that even if the King of the West is no longer obsessed with the Queen Mother, the candidate for the Queen Princess of the West in his heart still can't get rid of the shadow that has been deeply embedded in his memory - the Miss Su who only belongs to him.

It's just that the king of the west should know that he likes more than just a substitute, right?

"I got married to Miss Xiangfu, the prince still thinks about this dream lover, if I let Miss Li know, how can I be embarrassed?" Mo Qinghan retracted his body, took a step back, and shook his head.

"She? If she is really smart, she should know that even if this king really accepts her as a concubine, she will not really have her in her heart, she wants fame, taking care of Chen'er is the only requirement of this king, and don't expect what this king's heart is. Ximen Zhe got up and put away the scroll.

Actually, shouldn't we also thank Li Xueyun at this time? If it weren't for her calculations, she wouldn't have touched "her".

But where can she, an ordinary woman, hide? I've spent so many years working and still haven't gotten anything. If you are against the enemy, this time it will be a real fiasco!

"By the way, Lord Wang, the person in charge of rehearsing the play for the Empress Dowager, I plan to add two more." Mo said lightly.

"This matter is already in your charge, so why do you need to tell this king more?" Simon Zhe doesn't care about the way.

"But the subordinates originally had to listen to the prince's orders, so they had to tell the prince if there was any situation." Mo said lightly.

"The king has always been at ease when you do things, otherwise he wouldn't have used you to being like this." Ximen Zhe glanced sideways at Mo Qinghan, Mo Qinghan could be said to be the most free subordinate under him.

Originally, Mo Qinghan, as the son of General Mo's family, could make his own achievements, but he wanted to follow the king of the west, because of his background and trust in his ability, Ximen Zhe gave him as much freedom as possible, so that this kind of relationship between ministers and friends was formed, which was rare in the court.

"It's better to show the prince according to the rules, if there is anything, the prince will stand on it." Mo Qinghan smiled, deliberately pretending to be afraid.

The next morning, Mo Qinghan sent someone to pick up Daixiao's mother and daughter from the troupe.

This is the second time Fluttershy has been in such a luxurious carriage, the first time was yesterday.

It's the first time she's out in the capital again, and Fluttershy's face is full of excitement, and she opens the window and looks around with her big eyes open.
