Chapter 137: A Coincidental Encounter

In such a noisy and noisy atmosphere, Xue Hainiang never imagined that she would be able to sleep peacefully until night.

When I opened my eyes again, the room was already dark, and when the hour came, Suizi would light red candles in all corners of the hall for lighting, but today, I am afraid that the girl has gone crazy.

Xue Hainiang got up, stepped on the silk shoes and got up, walked to the four corners of the hall familiarly, lit the red candles, and then covered the candle wall, and for a while, the hall was bright.

Looking at the empty inner hall, it was not empty compared to the West Garden of the Chonghua Hall in the past, but now there was a sense of loneliness in his heart.

Although she has always stayed alone in the inner room, Suizi is busy with her in addition to her spare time, and at this hour on weekdays, Suizi is also going to watch the night, it stands to reason that she should have been used to facing this empty house alone, but today is suddenly feeling cold and lonely.

Unconsciously it has been to the outside of the hall, gently push the vermilion lacquer pear wood door, the wind blows through the cold into the bones, the ears echo the sound of silk and bamboo from nowhere and the hustle and bustle one after another, look around, the red that can be seen everywhere adds a lot of joy to the world wrapped in silver.

In fact, she is not the only one who is incompatible with this noisy and festive atmosphere in this huge palace, and it is difficult to sort out her thoughts when she wants to come from thousands of miles away and be confined in a foreign country.

Thinking of this, the dull and depressed mood is actually a little better, but it really responds to that sentence, people's happiness is always consciously or unconsciously based on the suffering of others.

Perhaps this poor and beautiful temple is too cold, just like the jade worth a thousand gold, although it is luxurious, but it is cold to the touch.

Xue Hainiang couldn't help but move her steps to the outside of the hall, walking by the moonlight, where it was barren and remote, she walked straight to wherever she was, and before she knew it, she had arrived at the maple pavilion that no one cared about for a long time.

If the maple tree pavilion is replaced by autumn high and cool, it is also a beautiful place in the palace that everyone yearns for, but in winter, the maple tree is no longer red and gorgeous red leaves, a depressed realm, since few people set foot on it.

It was as she had expected, quiet and lonely, and there was no sign of people in sight.

Xue Hainiang randomly found an open space to sit next to the trunk of the maple tree, and took out the flute that was resting on her waist before leaving and brought it to her lips.

The melody is low and depressing, like an ape singing a crane at the beginning, and then like a stone into a cold pool, it is difficult to hide the sadness.

The slow and mournful melody of Rusi slowly wandered on the surface of the forest water, which was very different from the silk bamboo that reverberated between the Qiong Towers, and for a moment it seemed to divide the same place that was close at hand into two worlds.

At the end of the song, Xue Hainiang was about to get up and walk away, however, a vigorous and calm voice came from behind her, "The flute sound is excellent, but it is very inconsistent with the artistic conception of today's Chinese New Year's Eve." ”

Xue Hainiang's delicate body stiffened.

It stands to reason that playing a flute is not a violation of the palace rules, but what surprised her was that today's banquet in the six palaces, the concubines and concubines were all invited, and the palace people and guards were all performing their duties, and they were very busy, she really never thought that someone would pass by here. Moreover, as the man said, today is Chinese New Year's Eve, and it is the emperor's birthday, which is originally a time of joy and festivity, but she is playing such a mournful and depressing flute here, if it is transmitted to Nan Jiuxi's ears, wouldn't it be disrespectful?

Red lips moved, Xue Hainiang was about to cover up the big disrespectful crime, however, the person behind him had already spoken, "I haven't seen you for many days, but Miss looks more worried than before." ”

A 'miss' made her heart shake, and her heart fell to the ground, Xue Hainiang inserted the flute into her waist casually, and the red tassels hung down to her waist, which at first glance looked like she was wearing a valuable jade pendant.

"I said who it was, and I was so scared that I almost threw my flute...... It's Gu San, on such an important day today, you don't wander in front of the saint, how can you come here alone?" Turning to the side, Xue Hainiang saw that he was carrying a large jar of wine casually, looking unruly, but it was very different from him who was plain, steady and dull.

"Today is the emperor's birthday, and it is inevitable that the dragon heart will reward more people with some things, and those people under my hands are scrambling to come forward to serve, I am not a person who is good at the left and right, but it is better to move a position to others to come to leisure. He brushed it off lightly, and then sat down leaning against the trunk of a tree in the same way as Xue Hainiang, sat side by side with her, and handed her the wine jar in his hand very casually.

"It's rare that you and I are here today, wouldn't it be boring if we didn't drink together?" his vigorous and low voice came into his ears, revealing a slight sense of incomprehension.

Xue Hainiang lowered her eyes slightly, and said with a smile: "It's Chinese New Year's Eve, why did you come here alone to drink alcohol?"

He didn't answer, turned his head sideways and collided with Xue Hainiang's gaze, "It's Chinese New Year's Eve, why did you come here alone to play such a low tune?"

The obsidian-like pupils seemed to express the unknown feelings of others, clear and pure, so that she could see her stunned appearance through his clear eyes......

"If there are no relatives on the side, what can Rao do on Chinese New Year's Eve?" Xue Hainiang's red lips raised lightly, raised the wine altar and raised her head, her throat was full of wine, Xu drank too quickly, choking her cough a few times.

Since she entered the palace, she has never seen the Xu family again, although she has sent Mingxi back to the mansion to serve her weak and indisputable mother, but every time she thinks of the affectionate Xue Jingzheng, and the old lady who picks bones in the egg, she can't help but worry in her heart.

And Liang Bairou, who is accompanied by her and supports each other, is also in prison, although the Qiankun Palace is luxurious, it is as cold as an ice cellar, and she can't detect a trace of human warmth.

Gu San was silent, took the wine jar in Xue Hainiang's hand and drank it again, he had always had an excellent amount of wine, although it was almost half a jar of wine in his stomach, but except for the slight infrared on his cheeks, there was no abnormality.

He looked into the distance with a vague expression, as if it was the place where the sun was rising, however, the inner courtyard of this deep palace was always a boxy cage, and Rao looked through the correct direction but could not see the end.

"As long as it exists, one day it will come together. He paused, and raised a smile as if relieved, "I believe it." ”

Xue Hainiang was silent for a long time, at first she didn't know how to respond, and then she felt that it was good to sit so quietly and drink the same jar of wine.

When the jar of wine bottomed out, Xue Hainiang's cheeks were already red, although she was a little sane, but she walked crookedly, and she was filled with a smell of wine, choking her nose.

On the other hand, Gu San, who had drunk half of the jar earlier than her, and who had drunk nearly half more than her during the period, still had no abnormalities except for the slight infrared in his cheeks.
