Why is she like that (Woman) vs 28
From beginning to end, the two of them maintained a safe social distance, even if the opposite sex was in the same room and talking to each other, this distance was very innocent, not to mention that there were the emperor's people waiting to supervise at the door.
When their eyes met, Xie Budo broke free from his stunnedness, and he suddenly approached suddenlyβthe distance suddenly became extremely close, and Xue Yuxiao could almost feel his slightly hot breath falling on the mask.
Xie Budo stared at her, there were too many inexplicable emotions in these phoenix eyes. He whispered, "You also think that the pure ones are self-purifying, and they don't need external objects to corroborate it, right?" β
Xue Yuxiao: "...... Be. β
That's what you mean.
Xie Budo was lying on the table, this small case was very narrow, and as soon as he approached, Xue Yuxiao had to retreat backwards. But he didn't allow it, and directly reached out and grabbed Xue Yuxiao's old collar, his finger bones were tightened tightly, and asked her: "Then you say, there is no foreign object to prove innocence, so what is dirty and low?" You can write such a work in your humble body, you can break through the world and think about widows and orphans, and when they know your origin, they will say that you are low-blooded! People are not livestock, since they are born of people and people, why are there 'mongrels', there is a difference in blood? We-"
"Coral." Xue Yuxiao interrupted him, paused, looked into his eyes and said, "Outside the door." β
Xie Budo slowly let go of his hand and sat back abruptly. He sat with his head tilted back, a little depressed and misanthropic, from Xue Yuxiao's angle, he could only see his white and well-proportioned neck, and the trembling Adam's apple when he said those words.
After a while, Xie Budo said, "Thank you for reminding me." You know better than I do. β
Xue Yuxiao said: "There are too many cages in the world, and there are too many things that cannot be said, spoken, or mentioned. β
Xie Budo got up and said, "Since you are an understanding person and can guess from my book who represents behind me, then we don't have to hide it...... On the third day, or the fifth day, His Majesty will soon issue an edict to summon you to the military palace, and you can answer the call. β
Xue Yuxiao said: "There is labor." β
Since he got up, in order to express his gratitude and politeness, Xue Yuxiao also stood up. Just when the two were about to separate, a commotion suddenly sounded outside the Danqing Pavilion, and the noise was loud enough to be heard.
"The military government acts, and the divisions avoid it."
"Coral master? A flattering villain who hides his head and tail, a lackey who smears the facts. Fuck off, we're not looking for her! β
"I obviously saw someone enter that room to talk, why do you say no, and if you stop it again, you will bear the consequences, we will be ordered to come......"
Amid the admonitions and warnings, the guards remained at the door. Li Furong, who led the soldiers of the military government, didn't say a word, just pulled out the saber from her waist, snorted, and put it on the neck of the guard guarding the door. The cold light burst into her face, reflecting a gloomy and cold brow: "Looking for death." β
After that, Li Furong raised her wrist and raised the knife, making a gesture to split.
The guards didn't expect her to move seriously, her legs were frightened, and her body fell down against the knife wind. Li Furong's saber also passed the tip of her nose and stuck it on the floor in front of the guard outside the door, chiseling out a handful of flying wood chips.
Li Furong directly pushed open the door and opened her mouth to say: "General Xiao is very fond of you, and the shadow of this bright moon is really-"
Difficult.
These two words were stuck in my throat, but I didn't spit them out.
Everyone followed Li Furong into the room, and the two of them were not in the elegant posture of meeting friends, but empty, without half a figure. The windows on both sides were opened, and the scrolls on them were torn to pieces.
"Li Peng." This is the soldier's honorific title for literary Peng, although these ladies of the scholar clan are new recruits, their status is still much higher than that of ordinary sergeants, "I should have escaped through the window." β
Li Furong walked to the window, reached out and touched the dust on the window lattice, and sure enough, when she saw footprints, she said, "Chase." β
Danseikan has a verandah outside the second floor, and it is not a problem for an adult woman to escape from here. But why did she run away? Is it because the master of Mingyue has been taken under the command of Huan Chengfeng's people, or is it that His Majesty has sharpened her into an imperial sword as a weapon to weigh the scholars?
Li Furong didn't say anything more, and led people to chase down from the verandah, and the soldiers divided into two roads and searched on the two streets.
After the group left, in the corner of the Danqing Pavilion studio, Xue Yuxiao pushed open the door of the compartment.
The footsteps were far away, and Xue Yuxiao also let go of the hand covering Xie Budo's mouth, which was her subconscious action to avoid Xie Budo's refusal to cooperate. Li Furong has met her more than once, the two have been sworn enemies for a long time, and if she finds out, the risk of exposure will increase exponentially, which is not in line with her expectations.
Xie Budo was exceptionally quiet. He was like a cat who opened his teeth and claws on weekdays, but knew how to be quiet at critical moments, and only when Li Furong left, did he ask slowly: "What, are you afraid of being discovered by the people of the Shi clan?" β
He found an excuse by himself, and Xue Yuxiao also went down the steps: "The more you pay attention to talent and learning, the more mediocre talents will be jealous of your ability." Once she has murderous intentions, you and I will not survive the dozen or so knives of the sergeant behind her. β
Xie Budo grabbed her hand, rubbed her palm, and suddenly said, "Why do you women like to cover other people's mouths at critical moments?" But...... You're a lot gentler than that rough bastard. β
Xue Yuxiao's back was cold, and he glanced at the hand he had grabbed - this hand had not been bitten, and the palm was smooth and intact. She couldn't help but shrink her left hand, which had not faded from the scar, in her sleeve, and said in her heart, if you take another bite, I will be symmetrical.
After a moment, he let go of his finger and glanced at her, "...... Although the face is ruined, the person is not bad. It's a pity that it's ...... the "royal sister."
After speaking, Xie Budo sighed, walked out of the compartment, and shouted out. When the guards heard this, they immediately rushed in, and after making sure that the Fourth Highness was safe, they put on a new coat for him and hugged him away.
Moonlight Phoenix Dragon Tower(1)
Chapter 28
After leaving the Danqing Pavilion, Xue Yuxiao changed his clothes, removed the mask and forged scars, and returned to Xue Yuan from Jinshui Street.
When she returned, it was getting late, and the main courtyard had just been lit with wind lanterns.
Xue Yuxiao stepped into the garden, and before he got close, he heard a melodious flute sound - it was the transverse flute song "Plum Blossom Falling", the music was lingering, elegant and exquisite.
Xue Yuxiao's footsteps paused slightly, unwilling to be abruptly disturbed. She slowly walked to the door, thinking that this was the first time Pei Yuxue had played the flute in front of her. His flute sound is like Wang Heng's pipa, all of which are peerless, and even because he rarely interacts with people, it is even more difficult to find a song.
According to the original work, it seems that only Li Qingchou has heard of it, right?
Xue Yuxiao leaned against the door frame and did not enter, so as not to disturb the music with the noise of footsteps. She memorized the score in her heart - "Plum Blossom Falling" is a very classic Han Yuefu horizontal blowing song, which was later adapted into a qin song, that is, the classic "Plum Blossom Three Alleys". Although she can't blow, she listens to it a lot.
Across a lonely crane Izumo screen, Pei Yuxue knelt on the bamboo mat in front of the window, and the night breeze blew the curtains, blowing frost sleeves. This is really a very beautiful scene, but Pei Yuxue's flute is not at peace, revealing a dull sound in the music, and when the plum blossoms are over, his flute hole is also wrong, so the tune is fragmented, and it ends without ending.
He held the jade flute, stared at the palm of his hand for a long time, and suddenly heard a soft sigh not far away.
Xue Yuxiao walked in, and commented while entering the inner room: "It's absolutely moving, it's just that the tune is wrong, what are you thinking in your heart?" β
Without waiting for Pei Yuxue to answer, she smiled again: "But this is also very good, there are some fallacies, so that I don't think you are an ethereal immortal." β
Pei Yuxue's gaze shifted to her, stared at her for a moment, and did not answer her question immediately, but said softly: "You can return safely as scheduled, I am ...... I was delighted. β
Xue Yuxiao handed the golden knife back to him.
Pei Yuxue wanted to keep it as a token between the two, but there was no excuse to keep it as a token, so she had to withdraw the treasure knife with both hands. He continued: "If the tune is wrong, so that Chan Niang can frequently look at each other, and make mistakes all day long, what's the matter? β
Xue Yuxiao didn't think he heard his footsteps, nor did he think that he deliberately blew it wrong, so he asked with some surprise: "Did you hear that I was back?" β
"Nope." Pei Yuxue said, "Thinking that you, an ethereal immortal, are now facing a dangerous situation, and you have to pretend to mediate in front of the emperor's mouthpiece, and hide from the world, I can't help but worry that you will never ......return."
When he said this, he was very reserved and did not admit that he was worried: "If you don't return, how do you want me to explain to Xue Sikong?" So the mind is restless. β
That's true. Her mother is good everywhere, but she has no moderation in pampering her daughter, and now if it weren't for Xue Zeshu being ordered to build the Great Bodhi Temple, busy with the construction of the project in the suburbs of Beijing, and personally supervising the construction, then Xue Yuan would inevitably welcome Lord Sikong three times a day.
This little action between her and Pei Lang, if it was under Xue Zeshu's nose, I am afraid it would not be able to hide it. Xue Yuxiao is okay, after all, she can blow the wind of her baby daughter in the ears of Lord Sikong, but Pei Yuxue will definitely be blamed.
Letting the wife and the owner be in danger and not dissuading them is also a way to criticize Lang Jun's dereliction of duty in the world.
Xue Yuxiao arranged her clothes and sat down, the blood-colored pomegranate skirt reflected a sunset, the sunset passed through the gap in the bamboo window, shrouded her face and body, between the precious fabric and the glow of the sunset, there was almost a kind of holiness that was not in the world...... Pei Yuxue was slightly stunned, and her fingers curled up.
His eyes moved from her face to her shoulders and chest, but his heart was still pounding and hanging to her waist in disguise. The goose yellow pendant in front of Xue Yuxiao's waist shook gently in the fabric, and the jade reflected the golden glow, and his eyes fled as a thief, looking out the window and calming down.
Xue Yuxiao didn't realize it, rolled up his sleeves and poured tea for him, in a good mood: "Don't you ask me how I can show my powers?" β
Pei Yuxue stared at the camphor tree outside the window, and praised in a tone without waves: "The wife must be a powerful man, relying on her own charm, she didn't need too many words to persuade His Royal Highness and make him admire." β
Xue Yuxiao shook his head and said: "Xie Budo is unpredictable, it is difficult to see through at a glance, I think he is not even willing to do things for His Majesty." If necessary, you can win over ......"
After that, he told him about today's Danqing Pavilion as it was.
Pei Yuxue is the person who has taken care of her life and taught her to read and write since she wore books, he is lonely and cold, has no quarrel with the world, and has no heart of betrayal, in this case, Xue Yuxiao is more willing to treat him with sincerity, to continue the indestructible friendship between the two.
As for whether this friendship is friendship or a combination of interests that conform to the situation...... She was actually a little unsure of Pei Yuxue's meaning.
After she finished speaking, Pei Yuxue pondered for a moment and asked, "Li Furong came too fast. It is common sense for her to take the people from the military palace to find out the identity of Mingyue's master, but she doesn't have to cover her armor with a sword, and she is so arrogant, unless there are other instructions. β
"You mean the military palace...... Someone is not happy to see me enter the court? β
Pei Yuxue said: "I don't know much about government affairs, and I don't know much about the current situation, this is your woman's business." β
At this time, I am very modest, the one who analyzed the identity of Xie Budo's book yesterday, is it your second personality? Xue Yuxiao glanced at him and thought, "This time the momentum is too loud, and you may encounter excessive co-optation and threats...... If I am really a humble person without the slightest background behind me, I can't help but have worries, bow my head for it, and attach myself to a certain faction or a certain person in the military government. β
Speaking of which, it is completely within the scope of the struggle between the government and the government. Pei Yuxue didn't want to say more, picked up the "Qiu Fang Ji" that he had seen half, and said seemingly casually while flipping to the location of the bookmark: "This book you gave me...... It seems to be different from everyone else. β
"Huh?" Xue Yuxiao leaned over, "How can there be?" β
Pei Yingxue glanced at her and flipped the book to the homepage, with a string of handwritten fonts that made people's pupils tremble-"One Child and Three Treasures: The Domineering Wife and the Boss Are Fiercely Petted".
The small print below reads: Lantai Study Special Print, dedicated to the Mingyue master's collection.
Xue Yuxiao was shocked.
She watched in silence for two seconds, her eyelashes flapped a few times, and her words flickered: "This, this is...... Special Edition. β
β¦β¦ This is the one that Zhao Wenqin and Zhao Zhongcheng specially left for her. Xue Yuxiao forgot about it when he took it home and put it directly on the bookshelf.
Pei Yuxue bowed her head slightly, her eyes were as clear as ice, and there was a little smile on her lips: "Domineering wife? β
Xue Yuxiao: "...... Why don't you change the name to "Remarry Sister-in-law's Widow"? β
Pei Yuxue was stunned for a moment, she really didn't know how she quickly came up with another stupid name in her head. He couldn't make a joke, so he pretended that he hadn't done anything, took out a few pieces of paper from the book, and said, "I'll help you make the singing passages you said." β
Now the opera has been completed, and only the lyrics and songs of "Qiu Fangji" have not been compiled. You must know that if you want literary and artistic works to be popular in the Goolan market, it is also a big advantage to be able to sing them.
Xue Yuxiao's eyes lit up slightly, turned his head to look, and read out the words on his note: "...... The autumn rain is cold, the heavy door is deeply locked, ruthless but waiting. Who asks? Messy red and ......"
Let her write the lyrics, it's not that she can't do it. But in line with Li Xiaolangjun's lyrics in the article, they are always not so satisfactorily written.
Pei Yuxue's poem is very good, Xue Yuxiao admired it for a while, and thanked him: "That's good, this poem is written in your name, and it will be printed together with your notes, have you figured out what pen name you want to call?" β
He didn't think about it for too long, as if casually: "Look at Qinghui." β
"Look at ......" Xue Yuxiao was stunned, she stared at him intently.
As soon as these three words came out, Pei Yuxue suddenly chuckled in her heart.
His hand gripping the page tightened suddenly, and every inch of his body seemed to be covered with a layer of flames under the other's gaze, and it suddenly burst up, covering his skin with boiling heat...... Wrapped around him was a kind of fear and avoidance that wanted to talk about it. In the subtlety and restraint of men in this era, a little bit of heart is revealed as much as a dangerous sacrifice to the other party.
"This name is my ......," Xue Yuxiao pondered.
She didn't realize it all at once, Pei Yuxue quickly calmed down, his face was as usual, even if his fingertips were against the pages of the book, pressed tightly, his voice was still indifferent and detached, as if the two were just gentlemen's friends: "Don't you think this is appropriate?" Between the original book, the annotations, and several lyrics and songs, even the author's pen name corresponds to each other. β
He paused and concluded, "That sounds neat. β
Xue Yuxiao looked at his determined expression and dragged his loose thoughts backβhe was right to say this, and there was no flaw. So Xue Yuxiao nodded: "It's inevitably ambiguous, which makes people suspect the relationship between us." β
Pei Yuxue sighed and said, "Living under the same roof, do you still need to be suspicious?" β
Xue Yuxiao reacted: "...... Also. Are you done with your notes? β
"There are still some things that don't work." Pei Yanxue said, "You get closer, I'll tell you." β
The two were already very close, so Xue Yuxiao listened to his words and moved slightly. Her hair fell in a staggered bun against his side, and the cold beads were in his ears, rubbing softly and softly.
The roots of Pei Yuxue's ears were red, and the hidden burning still remained behind his ears. He was able to maintain his composure and Su Ri's cold feeling, all thanks to Pei Yuxue's amazing willpower, even if Xue Yuxiao was so close to him, as if snuggling, his gaze did not move.
ββ¦β¦ Here," he said softly, "why did Song Zhen use half of the bronze mirror as a token......
Oh, the allusion. Xue Yuxiao listened to his soft voice, and replied in a gentle tone: "From Dongfang Shuo's "Divine Strange Sutra", it is said that when the chaos had to be dispersed, the wife and husband broke the bronze mirror in half, and each of them attached to half of it, as a token, and when they met again in the future, they would close the bronze mirror ......."
