The blood in my heart seemed to have congealed, but on this summer night, my hands and feet couldn't stop getting cold.

"What's wrong?" The voice sounded again, still incredibly gentle, without a hint of impatience.

Wang Yun! It's actually Wang Yun!

What am I going to do?

The killing intent towards him had gradually subsided when he saw Dong Zhuo on the battlefield that day. Nowadays, I just want to live in peace, even if it is to eat and wait for death, I just want to live peacefully in this era.

Just want to live in peace? I chuckled silently at the expense of such a humble wish in this day and age.

"The Queen Mother's birthday has begun, why are you still here, are you uncomfortable?" A pair of hands rested gently on my shoulders, and the warmth of their palms frightened me.

My fingertips couldn't help but tremble slightly, feeling the cold veil in my palm, I leaned back from the panic in my heart, lowered my head to cover my face, and shook my head gently.

The owner of those hands gently turned my body, gently lifted my chin, and looked at me.

Under the silver moonlight, I raised my head lightly and looked at the gentle, but nightmarish face, still a flawless white, fairy-like man.

But he scared me.

He looked down at me, and then his eyes froze slightly on my face.

"Smiling?" A cursed name escaped from his mouth.

I froze.

He, recognize me?

Under the moonlight, his eyes were so gentle that it made my heart palpitate, but I couldn't help but feel a chill in my heart.

After a while, he hung his head down, leaned against my neck, and sighed softly, "I'm sorry, cicada." His voice was low and ringing in my ears, and the warm breath brushed through my ears with a touch of pity.

I breathed a heavy sigh in my heart, he didn't recognize me, he just thought I was someone else.

Is it because of this dance costume?

It's just that I still can't digest everything in front of me.

The man in white, who always had a gentle face, how could he have such a depressed look?

"Let's go, after this dance, we'll go home." His fingertips gently slid over the corners of his eyes outside his veil, and he curled his lips slightly, smiling. The expression is so natural, so natural that you can't help but believe that it is really "our" home.

I immediately decided that I would rather be a cicada for his dancing time than be recognized by him as a woman who had been lurking in his heart for a long time.

I can't imagine the consequences of that.

His fingers intertwined with mine, his fingers clasped tightly, and he pulled me along the porch: "How's that dance doing?" ”

Feeling the temperature of his fingertips, I was silent, not daring to speak rashly, for fear that my voice would leak out.

He didn't mind hearing my answer, so he just took my hand and walked towards the Queen Mother's Palace.

All the way is prosperous and lively, the palace maids hold the palace lanterns, whether they are sincere or not, they are all happy and smiling.

The Queen Mother's Hall is lit up, and there is a faint sound of silk and bamboo in it, which is extravagant and chaotic.

"Wang Situ." A slightly mocking voice rang out.

I froze for a moment, barely daring to look at the man who spoke.

The little poisonous tongue was standing at the door of the Queen Mother's Palace, calling Wang Situ in his mouth, but his eyes were staring at me. Under the heavy and luxurious clothes, his face is particularly pale, although he is the king of Chen Liu, but without the protection of the Empress Dowager Dong, he should have suffered a lot.

I lowered my head, wishing I could find a hole in the ground and get in. Looking at the eyes of the little poisonous tongue, he clearly recognized me.

"Woman, what are you doing here?" Sure enough, he grinned and asked.

With a deep sigh, I decided to play dead to the end.

"Back to the prince, this woman is still the righteous daughter of Weichen, Diao Chan, and this time she was specially summoned to the palace to dance." Wang Yun gently held my wrist with one hand, bent down and saluted, even if he saluted, he was also calm and gentle, and when he got up, he glanced back at me, raised his lips slightly, and compared the shape of his lips.

He's saying, "Don't be afraid. ”

His grip on my wrist didn't exert any force, but I was able to calm down my panic. What's going on? I was actually calmed down by the words of the culprit who caused me panic?

What the hell.

Wait...... Wait a minute! What did he just say? Diao?! Diao Chan, one of the four beauties? Diao Chan that attracted Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu against each other?!

The girl I saved in the afternoon...... What turned out to be?

Diao Chan!

There was a mess in my head, and there were signs of a temporary short circuit.

"Righteous girl Diao Chan?" A trace of doubt flashed in Liu Xie's eyes, and then he had some interest again, staring at my eyes, "You want to dance?" ”

I stiffened my head and nodded.

"Okay." Liu Xie nodded, and finally showed mercy.

I bowed my head quietly and followed Wang Yun into the main hall.

Standing far away in the doorway, I looked up. This is the second time I have met Empress Ho, the current Empress Dowager. The first time was at the funeral of the Empress Dowager Dong.

Now she is dressed in brocade and half-leaning and half-sitting on the phoenix couch, and there are five or six maids standing behind her, all holding feather fans and fanning the wind carefully. There were also five or six maidservants, either holding incense beads, or holding gargles and embroidered handkerchiefs, and so on.

The courtiers present also offered their gifts.

It's a scene of stars holding the moon. And I looked at this beautiful, illusionary everything, and I was left with indifference.

Because, all of this is really just an illusion, when the ten permanent servants ambushed the killer in the Jiade Gate of Changle Palace, and the day when the general He Jin was cut into two sections, it was the end of the empress dowager's end.

It's just that at this time, the queen mother is still so high.

"Cao Cao, the captain of the military academy, offer a pair of jade Ruyi!"

"Holding Jin Wu Ding Yuan, nine pearls of the night, I wish the Queen Mother a long life and Tianqi!" Shrill voices came and went.

Fourth...... Ding Yuan?!

Is it Lu Bu's unlucky father-in-law in history?

I looked at the thin old man in a daze, he was Ding Yuan.

Behind Ding Yuan, there was a young man who was half a head taller than him, and his eyes were still so bright.

Yes, not a teenager, a young man, dressed in dark green robes.

"Father-in-law, my Fang Tian Painting Halberd!" He spoke, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, as if he was very dissatisfied.

"Be quiet, today is the birthday of the Queen Mother, you can't bring a blade into the palace, and I will return you when I leave the palace." The thin old man scolded softly.

"One hundred gold!" Lowering his voice slightly, the bright-eyed man complained.

Hearing him do this, I suddenly couldn't laugh or cry. Is this fate? In one day, I saw so many old people.

As if noticing my gaze, those bright eyes looked over.

I was slightly stunned, as if he would scream "daughter-in-law" in the next second, and then pounce on me.

He stared at me for a long time, and then his eyes turned slightly, falling on Wang Yun's face, and then his brows furrowed suddenly, and his face was a little difficult to look at.

My heart skipped a slight beat, didn't he recognize Wang Yun? I once took him to the Moon Tower, and he met Wang Yun, who used to be a fine dust.

"Cicada, what's wrong?" Wang Yun's voice rang in my ears.

I subconsciously shook my head.

The sleeve was gently pulled, and I paused, turned around, and looked into a pair of eyes like water.

"Guo ......" I was shocked, and then I was busy silencing.

Guo Jia laughed: "I entered the palace with Brother Meng De, and he said that he might meet you, and sure enough, he did." ”

"Who is this?" Wang Yun gently pulled me away and looked at Guo Jia, who was dressed in a wide-sleeved green coat and wearing a scarf.

I hurriedly followed Wang Yun and took a few steps back, bowing my head and pretending to be a lady.

With Guo Jia's cleverness, how can he not know the situation at this time? After looking at me for a while, he smiled slightly: "I'm sorry, I recognized the wrong person below, this girl is somewhat similar to an old acquaintance of mine." ”

Wang Yun held my hand and tightened slightly: "Old acquaintance? Then he returned to his usual gentleness, "I wonder where your old acquaintance lives?" ”

"Liangzhou." Guo Jia smiled lightly, "She also called herself a little goddess." ”

I glanced sideways at Wang Yun, and was shocked to find that there was a hidden pain in his usually plain and gentle eyes, and the hand holding me unconsciously let go.

"Really? It's true? In the distance, a voice came.

A black line immediately appeared on my head, it was Lu Bu!

"I'll go out for a while." I noticed from afar that Lu Bu was walking towards this side, and I didn't care about anything else, so I was busy withdrawing.

Wang Yun was a little abnormal and didn't suspect me.

Lu Bu is different from Guo Jia, if he finds me, he will definitely ignore the thirty-seven twenty-one, and shout, I can't take this risk.

Taking advantage of Wang Yun's distraction, I slipped out. I've been thinking since just now, if the woman I saved in the afternoon is really Diao Chan, then she is very likely to be nearby, if she and I appear at the same time, there is a real or fake Diao Chan, at that time, this scene will really not be able to continue.

The palace lights in the palace of the Queen Mother are everywhere, and the court musicians, singers and dancers come and go, so it is not lively.

Before you know it, you will go around to the back garden, which is very quiet.

I found a place to sit down on the steps, the garden was transparent, there was no palace lamp, it was the light of the moon, I stroked my stomach, but I was a little hungry. I haven't eaten since the afternoon, and it's torture for me. I knew this was the case, and I really regretted stealing some melons and fruits when I just sneaked away.

"How's it going?" A voice that seemed a little strange because it was deliberately lowered suddenly sounded.

"Dong Zhuo has been summoned by He Jin, and now the garrison is outside Luoyang City, and He Jin is determined to kill our brother." Another voice said angrily.

"As soon as the Queen Mother's birthday is over, we will strike first, kill that guy, and put on a crime of rebellion. At that time, the orphan mother and the young emperor, the government will be under our control. ”

The evening breeze was blowing, and the whispering in the corner of the wall was in my ears, and I was slightly startled.

Is it the Ten Constant Attendants? They were in the middle of what to do, and they were bumped into......

Dong Zhuo, is he already outside Luoyang City? A trace of warmth unconsciously seeped into my eyes, and I looked at the moon sky in a daze, he was also under the moon in Luoyang?

Will he forget to smile?

There was warmth in my eyes, and the smile on the corner of my mouth slowly expanded, how could it be, how could I forget? A hand gently reached into my arms, and I touched a piece of silk paper, on which there was a woman like a smiling spring mountain, which was a smile. Dong Zhuo's handwriting, the smile in his mind.

Behind me, someone gently put it on my shoulder.

I was startled, the smile on the corner of my mouth froze slightly, the moon was dark and the wind was high on the murderous night. Well, even though the moonlight was still bright at this time, it was clear that it didn't prevent the killing. I secretly annoyed, Dong Zhuo's news made me forgetful, I didn't hide in the corner of the wall, isn't this recruiting people to kill people!

Thinking that his life was in danger, he slowly turned around, but saw a pair of beautiful eyes, but the eyes were still gray and seemed to be covered with fog.

Under the moonlight, he was dressed in a royal robe with red edges on a black background, embroidered with a five-colored golden dragon with teeth and claws.

"Liu Bian! What are you doing here? With a sigh of relief, I stood up and yelled, venting to soothe my heart that had just been almost broken.

With an innocent face, Liu Wei stood behind me: "What are you doing here?" ”

Stroked my forehead, I remembered that he was the emperor, no matter how I had to give face, bend down, I want to salute, I can't fall into a big disrespectful crime.

Seeing that he stretched out his hand to hold my shoulder, I was too lazy to be lazy, so I simply continued to sit down, put my hand on my chin, and look at my moon. The whispering voice had disappeared, and I thought it must have noticed someone, and this person was not small, and he had avoided it.

"I thought it was Diao Chan just now, but as soon as you opened your mouth, I knew it was you." He sat down next to me and smiled.

"The Queen Mother's birthday, why did you hide out again, not afraid of waiting for another upheaval?" Anyway, the bottom has already leaked, and I unexpectedly lifted the veil and set it aside to breathe.

"It's okay, when the banquet is over, I'll go back later." He smiled lightly, his face a little misty.

"Don't you like the hustle and bustle inside?" Looking at him sideways, I vaguely understood what he meant.

"The excitement is theirs, and it has nothing to do with me." Under the moonlight, he smiled faintly, and his beautiful face seemed to be in the fog, misty, and unreal.

I forgot his identity and raised my hand to stroke his head, and I suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in my heart.

"By the way, Diao Chan she...... What kind of person is it, is it really like me? After a moment's hesitation, I asked.

I thought of the woman in the afternoon, when her hair was messy, and I only felt that she was very familiar, but now that I think about it, that face is very much like myself. Everyone thinks they are very familiar with themselves, but if one day, when you see another self standing in front of you, you will realize that you don't know yourself at all, otherwise, how can you not even recognize that face?

"Well, yes, especially when you laugh, it's very similar, but Diao Chan doesn't laugh often." Liu argued.

"I don't laugh often." I subconsciously repeated, but in my heart I remembered the woman's bright smile in the afternoon.

"She doesn't have a scar on her face either." Liu Wei is an honest child, so he is honest and authentic.

Subconsciously raised my hand and stroked my face, I smiled bitterly. I didn't have that scar. After all, it's a woman, and she still cares a lot about things like appearance.

"Well, she was originally a female official in the palace who held a sable hat, but later because of her outstanding talent, she was accepted as a righteous daughter by Situ Wang Yun, so she left the palace."

I nodded speechlessly, but my stomach cried first.

"Jingle ......"

Suddenly, a slender hand appeared and slowly reached in front of me, and that hand was a delicate embroidered bag.

Is that...... The embroidered bag that Ling'er embroidered for me before, the snack bag that I often tie around my waist? I remember...... Wang Yun has one in his hand.

I jerked my head up, and sure enough......

Wang Yunzheng stood in front of me, smiling gently, and then he bent down: "Weichen has seen the emperor." ”

The moonlight was hazy, and I sat on my side, the veil in my hand blown away by the wind......

For a moment, I felt like a ghost exposed to the sun, and I was at a loss.

"Wang Situ, please get up." Liu Wei stood up, quite like an emperor.

Wang Yun stood up and looked straight at me, with too much emotion in his eyes.

I couldn't help but tremble, I was too careless!

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is looking for you." Zhang let the sharp and thin voice hurriedly move from far to near.

Liu Wei stood in place expressionlessly, watching Zhang Rang come in a hurry.

While speaking, Zhang Rang has come to him, his eyes are inexplicably vicious when he looks at me, the person who just conspired in the back garden, he is also there!

"Miss Diao, it's time for you to dance." Zhang Rang looked at me and said, then lowered his head and looked at Liu Wei respectfully, "Your Majesty, please go back." ”

Liu Wei turned around and glanced at me and Wang Yun, and walked out of the backyard with Zhang Rang.

Looking at Liu Wei's figure gradually walking away, I clenched my fists slightly, and my heart beat like thunder. What to do, what to do, I don't want to face Wang Yun alone!

Turning around, Wang Yun had reached out and took out a delicate pastry from the embroidered bag and handed it to my lips.

I pursed my lips subconsciously.

"Aren't you hungry?" He looked at me with a look in his eyes that was too gentle to refuse.

I wanted to be honest, but my stomach was already rumbling.

Opening my mouth, I swallowed the pastry in his hand.

He looked at me, his usually gentle eyes suddenly deepened, and his fingertips gently stroked my left cheek, and there was a faint pain under his eyes, but it seemed to penetrate deep into the bone marrow.

In the next second, he had taken me into his arms.

My fingertips were cold, like falling into an ice cellar. I have imagined countless pictures of the reunion of old people. Maybe it was Guo Jia, who was holding his hairless little donkey, dressed in a green robe, and standing in front of me with a smile; Maybe it was Lu Bu, he shouted "daughter-in-law", and then rushed forward and hugged me vigorously; Maybe it's Dong Zhuo, he will call me "smile", and then hug me into his arms, and the haze in his eyes will disappear......

However, I never dared to think that it was Wang Yun!

Pushing him away, I lowered my eyes slightly, pretending not to know.

"The ...... Danced. "I opened my mouth, and I spoke with some difficulty, as if I was covering my ears and stealing a bell. I want to escape, I want to escape from Wang Yun's sight.

He looked at me carefully, then he looked around, slowly walked to the left and was only five paces away, bent down and picked up the tulle from the ground, walked up to me, and gently covered me: "Okay, after dancing, we will go home." ”

"This time, I picked you up first. So, you're mine. His warm breath brushed my neck, and then he pulled me and accompanied me back to the main hall of the Queen Mother's Palace.

I just covered my ears and stole the bell, and went to the Queen Mother's Palace first, but I really couldn't find a little poisonous tongue to help......

When I walked out of the garden, I found that I didn't know when, everyone had already opened a table outside, and I noticed that there was a high platform in front of me, which was facing the bright moon hanging high in the sky, and the Queen Mother was sitting under the high platform in front of it.

At this time, there were people playing on the high platform, and the sound of the piano was melodious.

Zhang Rangzheng was standing behind the Queen Mother, and when he saw me coming, he bent down and didn't say what he knew, only to see the Queen Mother nodded.

"Situ Wang Yunzhi's righteous daughter Diao Chan, dance, I wish the Queen Mother a long blessing......" pointed his throat and raised his voice, his voice was suppressed and frustrated, which was quite ridiculous.

I gently broke free of his hand, turned around and stepped up to the high platform.

The summer night wind gently swept through the crescent-white dance clothes, and I stepped on the melodious melody of the piano and stood on the high platform.

Raise your sleeves and turn your body.

The whole person is like a fairy in the night sky, I carefully recall every dance detail, as if I returned to the dance practice room, the teacher was standing next to me and looking at me, I remember she said, I am very talented in dancing.

This song is called "Looking at the Moon".

Many years later, the officials of Luoyang City still talked about it.

They said that Situ Wang Yun's righteous daughter, the woman named Diao Chan, danced amazingly.
