Chapter 534: The Old Place
Shao Xi is what Lao Wu has seen since he was a child, although this child has been a little funny since he was six years old, but he is very lively and cheerful, although he is smart and clever, he often seems to be fooling around like he has no heart.
Only Ye Ziyuan's incident made Lao Wu see that he had undergone a huge change, and when he accompanied Shao Xi to break into the county guard's mansion, it was the first time he saw Shao Xi so sad and crazy.
If he hadn't intervened to stop it, Chen Mohuai and the others might have died under Shao Xi's sword a year ago.
Before and after the incident of Ye Ziyuan and entering Daliang City, Shao Xi was very wise and calm, but when facing this matter, Shao Xi's heart seemed to be uncontrollable.
Just like at this moment, Lao Wu saw an extremely terrifying and cruel look on Shao Xi's face, which showed that he was full of resentment in his heart at this time, as if he wanted to tear the people he was about to see to pieces.
Shao Xi's appearance even Lao Wu couldn't help but be afraid.
In Lao Wu's opinion, Shao Xi at this time was no longer the young master he had always been familiar with, but more like a terrifying beast that was extremely angry and ready to attack.
However, Lao Wu did not plan to remind Shao Xi to stay calm, Ye Ziyuan's death was a blow to Shao Xi that others could not imagine.
This matter has become a knot in his heart, if this knot cannot be opened, Shao Xi will never be able to let go of this matter.
Therefore, Lao Wu felt that he should take this opportunity to let Shao Xi vent his inner grievances and anger to his heart's content, and only by completely releasing the long-standing grief and anger in his heart could Shao Xi truly cross the hurdle in his heart.
What's more, what Chen Mohuai and the others did to Ye Ziyuan at the beginning, even Lao Wu himself hated it so much, how could he stop Shao Xi from taking revenge on this group of scum?
At this time, Lao Wu secretly scolded in his heart, this group of blind dog-eyed things, who are you messing with, do you have to provoke my young master?
This time, it will be a luxury for you to die comfortably, and even if you go to the eighteen layers of hell, I am afraid that you will never be able to forget this fear.
The banquet was not dispersed until nightfall, and under Xing Wenxin's arrangement, Shao Xi and the others went back to their rooms to rest.
It's just that Shao Xi lost sleep again this night, and from the moment he saw Ye Ziyuan's stone tomb, the grief in his heart was like a wound that had been re-torn open, and it had been bleeding non-stop.
Tomorrow, I will see Chen Mohuai and the others who want to kill them quickly, and the rekindled anger makes Shao Xi's blood boiling.
After tossing and turning, Shao Xi simply stopped sleeping, got up and walked to the window, pushed open the window, and looked at the full moon outside the window.
Shao Xi suddenly remembered that a year ago today was also the middle of the night when the full moon was also full, and he and Ye Ziyuan were drinking and writing poems in the flower pavilion in the small courtyard.
It was also on that night that Ye Ziyuan confided all the bitterness and helplessness in her heart to herself, and agreed with herself that after she stole the account book, she would leave Qingshan County with her, travel the rivers and lakes hand in hand, and live an unrestrained life from now on.
But it was from that night that Ye Ziyuan endured endless pain, and finally committed suicide with hatred.
Thinking of all this, Shao Xi couldn't help but feel a pang of cramping in his heart.
It's been a year, and I wonder if there is a new girl living in that small courtyard? I wonder if the flower pavilion and the willow tree are still there?
Thinking of this, Shao Xi couldn't help but have the urge to go and see it again, so he didn't think much about it, and jumped out of the window.
As soon as his feet touched the ground, he heard someone whisper, "Who is it?" How dare you break into the county guard mansion at night? Don't report your name yet? ”
Shao Xi turned his head to follow the prestige, and saw that it was Qiao Wu'an, the captain of Xuanjia, and said in his heart, doesn't this guy need to sleep? It's almost time, and he's still wandering around the courtyard, and it's dutiful to say it.
Shao Xi also replied in a low voice, "It's me." ”
When Qiao Wuan saw that it was Shao Xi, he hurriedly bowed his hand and said, "It turned out to be an adult, it's approaching the time at this moment, why hasn't the adult fallen asleep?" ”
"I can't sleep, I want to go out for a walk, you just keep this place, I don't like people to follow me."
Qiao Wu'an heard that Shao Xi was in the way, and he had already heard that this Lord Shao's martial arts were far above him, if there was really something, who would protect whom!
During the day, as the captain of Xuanwu, he led the Xuanjia guards to guard Shao Xi to a greater extent to support Shao Xi, and Shao Xi was going out in the middle of the night, and it was indeed inconvenient for him to follow.
It's really something, but I'm a burden.
So he arched his hand and said: "I hope that the adults will go early and return early, and the lower officials will not follow." ”
Shao Xi saw that this kid was quite eye-catching, nodded with satisfaction, and then jumped out of the courtyard wall, seeing Qiao Wu'an stunned for a long time with his mouth open.
You must know that the courtyard of this county guard is not small, the two of them are standing in the courtyard and talking, Shao Xi is just a person who has already left the courtyard wall.
It didn't even attract the attention of the armor guards who were in charge of guarding outside the hospital, what kind of mysterious body technique was this, and it could come and go without a trace?
Don't say that Shao Xi won't let him follow, even if he lets him follow, he won't be able to keep up!
Qiao Wuan shook his head self-deprecatingly, it seemed that he was really just an ornament, and this adult was really an ordinary person who might not be able to deal with it.
After Shao Xi left the county guard's mansion, he did not climb over the wall and cross the ridge like chasing Ye Ziyuan a year ago, but walked slowly along the bluestone road, and it didn't take long to find the original courtyard wall.
When I looked up, I saw that the willow tree in the courtyard was still the same.
Shao Xi hesitated for a moment, wondering if he would disturb the people living in this courtyard after jumping into the courtyard wall?
But in the end, the memories of the past and the longing for Ye Ziyuan finally prevailed, and Shao Xi jumped into the courtyard and was silent when he landed.
After landing on the ground, I looked around, nothing had changed, the door of the house in the courtyard was still closed, and the flower pavilion was still there.
The willow tree was exactly the same as it had been a year ago, and its branches swayed gently in the bright moonlight, as if to greet its returning old friend.
The moonlight is like water, and the broken shadows next to the flower pavilion are mottled, just like the broken memory, all of them are clearly visible, but none of them can be picked up again.
Shao Xi sighed heavily, walked into the flower pavilion and sat on the stone bench.
The moonlight is still the same, the scenery is still the same, but the old man has passed away, and there is no longer the person who talks to him warmly.
Shao Xi took out the red ribbon that had been tied to his wrist by Ye Ziyuan himself from his waist bag, put it in the palm of his hand and stroked it gently, and couldn't help but feel sad in his heart.
sighed in a low voice: "Everything here has not changed, only you and me have changed, now I am still here, but you are no longer there, this courtyard without you is so deserted." ”
The moon shadow of the flower pavilion is faintly there,
The willows and vines mourn the cold.
There is no jade cup to hold warm wine,
Leaving a grudge full of empty platforms.
Looking at the situation in front of him, Shao Xi seemed to see that beautiful figure again.
A year ago, it was in this courtyard, in this flower pavilion, that Ye Ziyuan confided her heart to herself by her side, and promised to let herself redeem herself and leave this sad place that had hurt her with her.
At that time, both of them had imagined traveling together in the rivers and lakes and spending the rest of their lives together.
But who would have thought that that meeting would become the only good memory left in this world by the two of them in this life.
Since that time, Ye Ziyuan has been imprisoned with a grudge because she broke her legs for breaking into the county guard mansion at night, although Shao Xi tried her best to rescue her, but after all, there was an accident.
In the end, Ye Ziyuan was unwilling to commit suicide in humiliation, which was Shao Xi's biggest regret in this life.
Shao Xi has been blaming himself all along, if he could have done better, if he had been able to think more thoroughly, maybe the result of things would not be what they are now.
But now everything has become an established fact, and no one can change it.
After all, it was lost, Ye Ziyuan was lost, and the life that the two of them once longed for, and everything could not be turned back.
Now all that is left is this courtyard, only that short and beautiful memories are left, and there are regrets.
Ye Ziyuan is the first woman Shao Xi was moved by after coming to this world, although she came from a humble background, although she was a little stubborn, but she was the first person in this world to give up her life for herself.
Now sitting in this courtyard, although everything around me is still the same as before, there will always be such a person missing by his side, a person who should not be missing no matter what.
Shao Xi only felt a sour heart, and two lines of hot tears slipped down his cheeks quietly.
"Purple Kite, we still missed it after all, if there is really an afterlife, I hope you don't change your name, so that I can find you, so that I have a chance to make up for the debt of this life."
Shao Xi wrapped the red silk in his hand around his wrist again, but he couldn't tie the beautiful bow that Ye Zikite had tied at the beginning anyway.
Maybe she's the only one in the world who can make a bow like that, right?
Looking at his clumsy appearance, Shao Xi couldn't help but choke up again.
I can't go back, I really can't go back!
Shao Xi sat in this courtyard and in this flower pavilion for a long, long time, and even he didn't know how long he had been sitting?
At this time, his heart was full of Ye Zikite, recalling the scene when the two met for the first time, recalling her beautiful fairy-like sword dance and piano sound like Luan Yinfeng singing.
recalled the way she tied this red silk to her wrist, and recalled the scene of the two of them talking all night in the hall of Lanxiufang.
Everything is as if it was yesterday, everything is as if it were right in front of you.
Shao Xi sat here in a daze, looking at the familiar courtyard in front of him, recalling the bits and pieces between himself and Ye Zikite, and unconsciously heard the sound of roosters.
At this time, Shao Xi realized that he had unconsciously sat here all night.
The rooster's crowing is the dawn, the sky is about to dawn, and today I will ascend to the court to judge those who killed Ye Zi Kite.
"Purple Kite, I can finally avenge you now."
