Chapter 145: The Storm in the Palace (13)
The man just stood in the crowd, and the glow around her body was like a thousand acres of brilliant light overturning, like the sun hanging in the night, shaking her eyes into broken shadows, and she could no longer see the people around her. It seems that under the fire tree and silver flowers, the starlight and the moon shadow, he is the only one who is independent of heaven and earth, and all the noise in his ears has dissipated at this moment.
I saw his lips move slightly, and he whispered something to the person next to him.
Even though the voice was very small, she could accurately catch the answer between his lips and teeth.
"It's a painting." She replied firmly.
The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "The girl is amazing, and listen to the last question - the left does not come out, the right does not come out, either it does not come out, or it does not come out." Typing. ”
At this moment, her attention was completely focused on a certain place, so focused on the man's movements that she didn't even hear the shopkeeper's questions.
Fortunately, after Prince Lu gave him the puzzle at the store, he couldn't help but ask him for an answer again, but this time, she couldn't hear his answer for a long time.
She unconsciously looked at him, but saw him looking faintly ahead, his eyes full of flashy lights, clearly brilliant, but the depths of his eyes were like a twilight covered with thick ink, so that she could not get a trace of emotion from them.
For a moment, she seemed to feel that his gaze had crossed thousands of mountains and rivers and landed on some distant place.
After a long time, I heard him speak softly: "It's the word 'forest', Shuangmu Lin." ”
His voice is not as lazy and casual as before, and there is a faint hint of softness in the lowness, like a guqin plucking, the strings are melodious, and the threads are heartwarming.
Her heart was inexplicably tight, and there was an indescribable taste that permeated her heart.
Before she could recover her senses, she heard the shopkeeper urge, "Can the girl answer the riddle, if not—"
"Forest, double wood."
She answered without hesitation, although she didn't know what the question was or whether it was accurate, but as long as it was the answer he gave, she believed it from the bottom of her heart.
"The girl is really powerful, today this begonia in our store is shaken, and it will return to the girl."
Cicada Yi took the box from the shopkeeper and handed it to her.
"The third sister won!"
"Third sister, you are amazing!"
The admiration of the two sisters, as well as the envy and regret around her, were endless, if she didn't hear it, she was happy in her heart, but at this moment, she just wanted to share this joy with him.
She picked up the box and turned to look for the man, but as far as she could see, he was long gone from the crowd around her.
Just when she was depressed, she saw that on a carriage on the street, Prince Lu just leaned out half of his body, waved his hand to the back, and shouted: "Then I will go back to the house first, and I will look for you in the building tomorrow." ”
I saw the person in the back standing with his hands in his hands, his posture was as tall as a jade tree and a pine, and he was like a fairy and a demon in an ink robe under the moonlight. At the end, Prince Chaolu nodded with a smile.
She was overjoyed in her heart, her eyes were fixed on that place and she didn't dare to let go, and immediately ordered the servants behind her: "You are here to accompany Miss Fifth and Miss Six, and I will go back when I go." ”
"Hey, third sister, where are you going?"
The sixth sister's voice sounded from behind her, she didn't pay attention to it, but accelerated her pace and walked straight to the street with the cicada clothes.
"Young Master Su."
As the man was about to leave, she finally arrived in time to stop him.
The man turned his eyes back, his gaze swept lightly over her, and then he smiled lightly and said, "Miss Hua? ”
Unexpectedly, he actually remembered her. Somewhere in her heart seemed to tremble slightly, like the wind passing through the flat lake, causing a circle of ripples.
She tightened the box in her hand a little nervously, and before she could think about how to speak, she heard him ask again: "I wonder what Miss Hua is looking for?" ”
His tone sounded languid and loose, but there was a sense of politeness and detachment.
She quickly sorted out her thoughts, smiled apologetically at him, and said: "I'm ashamed to say it, in fact, Hua Qiong only solved the first puzzle, and the next two and three questions were all answers from Su Gongzi's mouth, not Hua Qiong's solution, so this step Hua Qiong can't take it for himself, and it should be returned to its owner." ”
With that, she handed him the box in her hand.
He raised his eyebrows, but he didn't reach out to take it, just laughed lowly and said, "Miss Hua's words are serious, it's just casual nonsense, how can you take credit?" Moreover, begonias with beauties are both delicate and beautiful. This begonia flower is so delicate, it should complement the beauty, but he is just a vulgar person, and it is useless to take this woman's things, so Miss Hua should keep it. ”
Although he knew that he was prevaricating and did not mean anything else, his words were still like a warm hand gently caressing the tip of her heart.
She raised her eyes in a daze, but saw him smiling lightly, like a demon rampant in the dark night, with a deadly charm, bewitching people all the time. Especially those peach blossom eyes, as if there is a kind of magic, seemingly calm, but like a whirlpool, let her sink uncontrollably.
The box in her hand suddenly became a little hot, as if something was burning her fingertips.
"If Miss Hua has nothing else to do, she will leave first."
Seeing that he turned around and wanted to leave, she bit her lip and asked the words in her heart: "This step is a begonia and a pedicle, the meaning is excellent, why don't Su Gongzi give it to the person you like?" ”
After saying that, she regretted it a little. How could he not hear the temptation in these words?
He stood in the flickering light and shadow, narrowing his eyes slightly, although his expression did not change in any way, she could vaguely feel that his eyebrows and eyes seemed to be colder.
She was a little apprehensive in her heart, after all, being tempted like this by an unfamiliar person, anyone would feel that there was something else.
Just when she was thinking about how to redeem it, she saw him hook his lips and smile, and replied: "There is no one to give it to you." If Miss Hua doesn't like it, she can give it to others, so why bother. ”
His tone was still languid and loose, and he didn't seem to be upset by it.
Seeing that he was not unusual, she relaxed slightly.
And his answer made her even more unhappy, and she was about to start talking to him about something, so she heard him say: "Su still has important things to do, so I can't accompany him, so I will leave first." ”
At this point, her memory was fixed on that cold back.
Thousands of willows, stumbling on the spring breeze. I can't help myself, but my love is deeply rooted.
The candle flame in the hall flickered, Hua Qiong's eyes still fell on the step, and there was a tenderness that could not be hidden between her eyebrows.
"Cicada clothes, you say, if I didn't enter the palace back then, would I be able to leave a place in his heart?"
A hint of gloom flashed in the eyes of the cicada clothes, and then comforted softly: "Yes, Niangniang is so delicate, just in response to this begonia flower, presumably Su Gongzi left this step to Niangniang because of this." ”
Hua Qiong smiled and said no more.
She had thought that after entering the palace, everything would be peaceful, that time would wear away the mark left by a person, and that one day she would forget him completely, but after all these years, she could still vividly recall his bewildering eyebrows, his languid tone, and every word he had ever said.
These memories can always make her sink over and over again in the years.
It turns out that some thoughts can be as strong as wine, but they will only precipitate over the years, and the more they are brewed, the more mellow they become.
Under the begonia flowers, suddenly glanced, and knew that the lovesickness was endless, and he taught the love silk to go deep into the bones.
