Chapter 16: The Lotus Knot
The rain curtain was still widening, and there was nothing left in my ears except the sound of the rushing rain, and the heavy rain had fogged everything in the world.
The window was open, and looking at the continuous rain outside, Yunyang suddenly spoke.
"I've never seen such a long rainy season in previous years, and I don't know what's going on this year."
I watched the flowers in the yard bend over under the torrential rain, and many petals gradually fell off and were buried in the soil by the rain.
At this time, Yunyang was wearing a loose white robe and a cyan gown, looking quite lazy.
The three thousand green silk were just casually curled up with a green jade hairpin, and there were still two handfuls of hair lazily attached to their ears.
The girl's quiet face stared intently at the purse in her hand, and her eyes were full of sweet and greasy smiles.
The delicate facial features are quite agile, and the silver threads shuttle freely in the hands, as if they have their own life.
Feng Qi also supported his hand with one hand, lazily lying by the window and watching, the cold wind made him sober up a lot.
She accosted unhurriedly, "That's why this year's sky will be extraordinarily good-looking." ”
Yunyang smiled softly, "I heard my aunt say that she also taught you embroidery, do you want to embroider a purse too?" ”
Feng Qi turned his body and looked down at the thing Yun Yang was holding in his hand, it was indeed a delicate purse.
The blue-green purse is embroidered with fine silver thread, but Feng Qi really can't do such a thing.
She waved her hand and sat down beside Yun Yang, "Forget it, aren't all purses for the person you like?" What do I embroider for myself? But Sister, do you have someone in your heart? ”
I don't know if Feng Qi said something in his heart, Yun Yang's face was dyed a trace of crimson, and he hurriedly lowered his head.
"Of course not, I'm just idle and have nothing to do......"
But Feng Qi could see it at a glance, and Yunyang was just covering it up.
"It turns out that Sister Ah also has her own thoughts, if you don't say it, you won't say it."
I just turned my head to the side, as if I didn't like to hear it.
The thoughts of such a rich businessman's sons and daughters, Feng Qi felt that it was still extremely easy to grasp, and sure enough, Yunyang was immediately relieved.
She hurriedly put down the silver silk in her hand, took Feng Qi's hand, and the crimson on her face became more and more obvious.
"Okay, okay, I'll just talk to you, it's just Bai Tang, the son of the Bai family."
Baitang ......
Feng Qi searched for news about Baitang in his mind, and it seemed that he did have some impressions.
The Bai family is also a well-known merchant, but the master of the Bai family only gave birth to a son and is nowhere else, so he is also very precious to this son.
Although Bai Tang is quite spoiled, he is also a rare talent among young boys.
Whether it is riding archery or business road, Bai Tang can be regarded as proficient at a young age, and he only needs to accompany the master of the Bai family to handle it.
Speaking of which, the Bai family and the Yun family are also world friends, Yunyang has been taken by Yunqing's side, and Bai Tang can be regarded as childhood sweethearts.
It is rumored that the two families have always had a baby parent, and as long as the time is up, they can directly manage the marriage.
Looking at Yunyang's appearance, he should be about to marry into the Bai family.
Feng Qi propped up his face, "Sister, do you really like Bai Tang?" ”
Yunyang looked at Feng Qi's appearance, and he was also rare and serious.
"Naturally, I like it, Bai Tang is the best among people, and he is a model for everyone and everything, it's hard to dislike it."
"But this kind of talent is the most difficult to see."
It was a casual sentence, but it made Yun Yang fall into silence, and the movements in her hands paused slightly, as if she was thinking.
"White Begonia...... Bai Tang and I both know the roots, but I can't say that I can't see clearly. ”
If Yunyang really wants to marry into the Bai family, there will be a lot more contacts between the two families during this time.
Feng Qi bowed slightly, the heavy rain outside the window finally stopped, but the heavy and damp smell had not yet dissipated.
"It's getting late, and it's time for me to go back."
Yun Yang stood up and nodded slightly, "Well, I'll look for you later." ”
Saying goodbye to Yunyang, as soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Shen Chi, drinking tea at the table, and seemed to have been waiting for himself for a long time.
Feng Qi closed the courtyard door unhurriedly, although he returned to Yunfu, Lu Youran still did not allow anyone to serve Feng Qi, so Feng Qi has always been alone.
But for Feng Qi, this is quite good, and he is comfortable alone.
Seeing Feng Qi coming, Shen Chi yawned lazily, and his tone was a little lazy.
"You generally understand what happened to Yun Zhuo, right?"
"Well, but there's still a lot I don't understand."
Shen Chi half-propped his face, "For example?" ”
Feng Qi sat down opposite Shen Chi unhurriedly, "Yun Zhuo's appearance ......"
She subconsciously touched her face and lowered her eyes slightly, as if she was thinking about something.
Shen Chi chuckled, "Coincidence, although it's unbelievable, but the world is so big, it's all strange, isn't it?" ”
Feng Qi didn't continue to talk, but the thoughts in her mind gradually drifted away, and she couldn't help but mutter.
"Bai Tang, what kind of person is you?"
"Huh?"
Shen Chi stood up and looked at Feng Qi condescendingly, and the playfulness in his eyes gradually became obvious.
"What, when did you see Bai Tang, and you were a little interested?"
Feng Qi turned his head away, "It's just a casual question." ”
Shen Chi pursed his lips and said lightly: "Last time you saved the know-it-all, he said he wanted to see you." ”
"Hmm."
The two of them had nothing else, but when Shen Chi was about to leave, he couldn't help but glance at Feng Qi a few more times.
I have seen her standing in the wind and rain and killing wantonly, and now I see her sitting here obediently, it is really a little uncomfortable.
Gradually, the moonlight fell, Feng Qi changed into his clothes, and walked towards the dungeon.
The guards of the dungeon had seen Feng Qi many times, so they didn't stop it much, and just let Feng Qi go to see the know-it-all.
Still the same as last time, the know-it-all wore a white robe, his hair was simply fixed with a silver-white hairpin, and two long strands of hair were left on the sides of his cheeks.
Some of his pale faces were sickly, just lazily leaning against the wall, his shadow stretched long by the candles around him.
I don't know if it was because he was frightened that day, Feng Qi always felt that the face of the know-it-all was more and more ugly than before.
She walked unhurriedly to the jack-of-all-trades, "I heard Shen Chi say that you are looking for me?" ”
The jack-of-all-trades lifted his lowered head with a faint smile on his face.
"Well, I just wanted to thank you in person."
Feng Qi's face was expressionless, "It shouldn't be more than that." ”
The know-it-all smiled, closed the thing in his hand, and gradually moved closer.
"You were asked to enter the Cloud Mansion for your doubts, but now your doubts should have been solved, right? You can leave first. ”
Everything seemed to be going well, but Feng Qi always felt that something was missing.
"I still don't understand, why did Chen Mohan harm Yunzhuo? No matter how Yun Zhuo said it, she grew up under her knees......"
The jack-of-all-trades smiled, "This is nothing more than a battle of interests, what is there to worry about?" ”
But seeing Feng Qi's silent appearance, the know-it-all still said: "But if you don't want to leave, you can naturally choose to stay." ”
The four eyes were facing each other, but the know-it-all stretched out his finger and pointed at the moon in Feng Qi's hand.
His fingers are also white, with distinct joints, and he is exceptionally good-looking.
But before he could speak, he began to cough with a frown, so he had to take a few steps back and cover his mouth with his cuff.
He sat down in a chair on one side of the table a little weakly, and his face became more and more ugly.
As if he was worried that Feng Qi would see him so embarrassed, he turned his face to the side.
A violent cough was heard, and a ghost soldier in heavy armor ran in outside the door, and the sound of heavy footsteps made people palpitate.
I can't see the appearance of the ghost soldier clearly, but all I can see is a tall figure wrapped in armor.
But in his hands he was holding something, a fine little box, with a graceful and luxurious pattern that was extremely cumbersome.
When I opened the brocade box, there was a pill with a fair skin and a faint fragrance.
The know-it-all swallowed the pill under the gaze of the ghost soldier, and after a long pause, his face improved a little.
After confirming that the know-it-all was fine, the ghost soldier left.
The know-it-all smiled apologetically at Feng Qi, "I shouldn't have let you see this, I'm really sorry." ”
Feng Qi didn't speak, just knelt on one knee and looked at the know-it-all lightly, "Who is it this time?" ”
Fang Cai pointed to the month by month, obviously with the meaning of task arrangement, as a knife, it is natural to do the duty of the knife.
The know-it-all took a sip of hot tea unhurriedly, "Second Master of Yunfu, Yun Qi." ”
He has been observing Feng Qi's appearance, but unfortunately, Feng Qi's face has not changed in the slightest, just bowing slightly, which can be regarded as an answer.
Feng Qi seemed to have completely lost his original appearance, like a person like a wood, without the slightest emotional fluctuations.
As long as it is an order, Feng Qi can almost do it perfectly, no matter what it is.
The know-it-all also looked at Feng Qi coldly, but unconsciously a smile rose at the corner of his mouth.
It was as if the ice that had not yet coalesced in early winter suddenly dissolved, and the stones rippled on the calm water, and then gradually spread.
That night, Feng Qi found Yun Qi's room.
I don't know if it's because of staying in the account room all the year round, Yun Qi has been living in the study, and Feng Qi seems to have never seen Yun Qi.
It is said that the second master of the Yun family has a strange personality, even if he is his own child, he rarely meets.
It's not that he doesn't like to see him or has a weak temperament, it's just that Yun Qi feels that he has a lot of things to bear.
When he dedicates all his energy to one place, it is difficult for him to take care of other aspects.
Yun Qi also seemed to care about Yun Zhuo, but his concern was brought by Yun Qing.
In the second half of the night, the wind and clouds suddenly changed, and it turned out to be a light rain, and the heavy ink color melted in the sky.
Only a few red lanterns were swaying in the silent cloud house, which seemed so faint in the rain.
In fact, Yun Qing is to himself, no, to Yun Zhuo. Yun Qing is really good to Yun Zhuo, but he is going to kill his father with his own hands today.
During the day, there may be a few people walking around the study where Yun Qi is located, but it is exceptionally quiet on a rainy night.
She didn't even ask the know-it-all why she wanted to kill Yun Qi, the dungeon and the Yun family clearly had nothing to do with it.
Temptation?
Quiet, pitch black, lifeless.
Feng Qi flashed in front of the study and stepped lightly on the steps, holding a black oil-paper umbrella in her hand.
Feng Qi has never been sneaky in killing, and he is bold and even willful in doing anything.
The icy rain flowed in the direction of the umbrella bone, and the sound of raindrops hitting the umbrella was particularly harsh, but it was also so secret under the heavy rain.
It's here.
There was still a dim candle flame in the study, and Feng Qi closed the umbrella, but he didn't step into it for a long time.
The people inside seemed to be looking through the ledger, and the busy figures were motionless, like stone carvings.
The rain was chilly, icy, and the feeling of being wet was terrible.
Bong-ki pulled out the moon, and the pattern on the blade also flashed with a chill, and tonight it will once again fulfill its mission as a sword.
"Come in, people from the door."
A strong male voice sounded, and the people inside noticed Feng Qi in the rain curtain.
Feng Qi pushed the door in, and Yun Qi sat there, without even raising his head, frowning, as if he was still worried about the account book in his hand.
