Because I couldn't make an appointment with Ye Fengzhi on this trip, although it was said that I was going to Jishuitan to swim in the lake, it sounded full of leisure, but Zhu Xuanrao's interest was not high.

In order to take care of her mood, Jiang Shu accompanied her to float on the water until the sky was twilight, and then went ashore.

Then, he personally sent her back to Luwangfu, which is located in the clarification workshop near Dong'anmen.

After such a toss, when I returned to King Fu's Mansion with Ping Qian, the night was completely shrouded.

It's just that because the sky is clear and cloudless on this day, the first quarter moon in the ink blue sky is particularly clear against the backdrop of stars, and the reflected earth is not particularly dark.

The master and servant walked slowly along the winding path lined with flowers and trees under the moonlight, all the way to the vicinity of the gathering garden in the backyard of the palace, and somewhat unexpectedly, they found that Zhu Changxun, who was dressed in plain white clothes that was particularly conspicuous in the night, was waiting at the gate of the courtyard.

Behind him, stood his guard, Timid, and the four maidens of the Garden—Golden Cherry Blossom, Green Calyx Plum, Wood Butterfly, and Cloud Poria.

When the two of them came closer, they stopped in their tracks, and the cowardly feathers and Jin Yingzi immediately raised their hands respectfully and saluted Jiang Shu who was in front.

Jiang Shu waved his hand to signal that they didn't have to be polite, and when they reached the screen, they also bent down towards Zhu Changxun, and after automatically retreating to the side, he moved his gaze to Zhu Changxun opposite, and pulled the corners of his lips lightly: "It's so late, why did the prince come over?" ”

"It's so late, the princess hasn't returned home, and the king can't rest assured." Facing her firm and clear eyes, Zhu Changxun spoke in a calm and authentic tone.

When Jiang Shu heard him say this, he suddenly thought that before he went out, he had specially instructed her to come back earlier, his smile couldn't help but stiffen, and he hurriedly explained: "I didn't mean to come back so late, it was Xuanrao who ...... her."

"It's okay, as long as you come back safely," Zhu Changxun smiled softly at her, took two steps forward, raised his hand and took her hand, "Come with this king." ”

After finishing speaking, without waiting for her to say anything, he slowly turned around and led her to the courtyard gate.

The few people standing at the door were all discerning, and immediately retreated sideways to the sides and moved out of the way.

Under the leadership of Zhu Changxun, he crossed the threshold of the Gathering Garden, walked all the way to the row of houses in the innermost part of the courtyard where his room was located, Jiang Shu was about to ask him what he was going to do, but he saw him leaning over to his ear, and then whispered: "Close your eyes." ”

The gentle and soft tone that almost melted into his ears floated into his ears, Jiang Shu only felt that his heartbeat seemed to miss two beats, and he forgot to ask why, so he obediently closed his eyes.

Then, hearing him chuckle, he lifted himself up gently, and walked on, carefully helping himself up the steps of the corridor of the house that rose above the ground, and stopped in the corridor.

Then, with the creak of a door being pushed open, he was helped to step carefully across the threshold.

As soon as he stood still in the door, a warm breath approached his ears, and then his gentle and patient voice came: "Open your eyes." ”

Jiang Shu answered softly, slowly opened his eyes, and looked forward, only to see that in the dim room without a palm lamp, there were countless small yellow-green bright spots floating high or low, and they were still flickering, looking very moving.

"Do you like it?" Seeing the look of surprise on her face, Zhu Changxun's thin lips raised slightly, and asked softly.

Jiang Shu wanted to nod, but quickly reacted to what this was, his face immediately changed, he pushed him away, turned around and strode out.
