Chapter 29: The Dark Tide
You walked through the world towards me, leaving behind an empty city with every step you took.
At this time, a poisoned arrow shot from the afterlife destined me, the only way out.
"Ride!" a puff of dust flew in the distance, and the sound of horses' hooves could be heard from far and near.
The vermilion palace gate was heavily pushed open by well-equipped officers and soldiers.
The three men and horses galloped into the palace gate like arrows, and the palace gate was struggling to close again.
The red walls and green tiles are all colors waiting for your return.
On the blue brick building, all the paintings are thoughts that fall into the smoke and rain.
Finally, everything here is waiting for your return. Qi'er.
"Phew!" Zhan Tianfeng tugged at the reins, and the horse paced back and forth with brisk steps.
"I went to the Taiqing Palace to discuss with the ministers about going to the southern border. Xuan'er, you take your Aunt Hua to Shuiyue Pavilion to live first. Zhan Tianfeng looked at Hua Qi with an apologetic expression.
"Go, I've got a Xuan'er here. Hua Qi looked at Zhan Tianfeng with a smile.
Zhan Xuan slowly drove the white horse in front of Huaqi and walked towards the depths of the Dao Palace wall.
After being silent for a long time, Zhan Xuan pulled the reins slightly and stopped.
Hua Qi is so smart that she already understands that Zhan Xuan has something to ask.
"Aunt Hua, how did you know my identity?" Zhan Xuan finally asked.
Hua Qi smiled and didn't say anything, just pointed to the Xuanyu Sword in Zhanxuan's hand, and looked at Zhanxuan like a spring breeze.
"My sword?" Zhan Xuan carefully examined the sword, except for the meticulously carved workmanship, the rest was no different from an ordinary sword!
Hua Qi guessed Zhan Xuan's doubts, and said with a smile: "This sword is called the Xuanyu Sword, it is an ancient weapon, which can drive away resentment, this is the only one in the world, and it was originally with your father." ”
Zhan Xuan suddenly realized, no wonder Hua Qi changed her mind to save Hehuan at the beginning, not because she thought it was effective, but because of this sword!
Thinking of this, Zhan Xuan hurriedly apologized: "I hope my aunt will forgive me for the previous faux pas." ”
Hua Qi smiled: "There are so many rights and wrongs at this time, but it's just red tape, don't worry too much." ”
Zhan Xuan nodded yes, secretly admiring Hua Qi's insight.
A woman who seems to behave frivolously takes righteousness first, can ride the world, or escape from the world, no wonder her father has never forgotten her to this day!
"Xuan'er, where is your biological mother?" Hua Qi couldn't help but ask when she saw Zhan Xuan's appearance like this.
"My birth mother passed away before I could remember. Zhan Xuan said.
Hua Qi was silent for a while, with a slight sense of guilt on her face, presumably this child has suffered a lot.
Zhan Xuan turned to Hua Qi and smiled brightly: "Auntie, there is the Water Moon Pavilion in front, I'll take you there!" After speaking, he quickened his pace.
Hua Qi looked at Zhan Xuan's distant back, this son grew up in the palace, without the protection of his mother, and it is rare to have such a distraction.
Across the palace wall, in the distance, Hua Qi heard the sound of mountain spring water.
"How can there be the sound of a mountain spring here?" Hua Qi was puzzled.
"Auntie, you'll know when you arrive. Zhan Xuan said with a smile, and then gently pushed open the palace door.
Inside the door, you will see a patch of green trees, high and low, lush. There is a spring at a rockery not far away, which leads the water down to the top of the mountain, and drip down the clear hot spring along the trajectory of the bamboo pipe, making a pleasant sound of "ding dong". The pond is surrounded by fragrant plum blossoms, forming a natural barrier around the pond. Two layers of varnished stilted buildings are hidden behind the trees, and only a corner of the phoenix is exposed. From time to time, there is the crisp call of birds, and occasionally the colorful butterflies hovering and shuttling at low altitude surround you. It's not quiet!
Hua Qi looked at all this, and her eyes were a little moist. The past comes to mind.
"Qi'er, what kind of palace do you want?" Zhan Tianfeng asked with a smile while holding Hua Qi's hand.
"Palace? I don't want a palace! I should have a hot spring pool in front of my house, surrounded by trees, listen to the birds in the morning, and smell the flowers when I sleep at night!" At that time, Hua Qi's face was intoxicated, and his fingers were gesturing in the air.
He did it. He really remembers. Hua Qi choked up for a while.
"This Water Moon Pavilion has been built since my father's accession to the throne, and it is the closest to the Taiqing Palace, and it is closer than the queen's bedroom. No one has been allowed to approach, and only people have been ordered to clean it every day. Now I understand that I was waiting for my aunt to come back. Zhan Xuan looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't help but sigh.
"Let's go inside. Hua Qi sighed slightly and said to Zhan Xuan.
Zhan Xuan stopped and did not move forward.
"What's wrong?" Hanagi questioned.
"Auntie, I have a question, has my aunt always treated only men and not women?" Zhan Xuan lowered his head crampedly and asked in a low voice.
When Hua Qi saw Zhanxuan's situation, she estimated that it was related to the Hehuan incident, so she smiled and said, "It must be a beautiful man!"
Zhan Xuan followed behind Hua Qi with a lost face, thinking that Hehuan was indeed a man and not a woman, it seemed that I was thinking too much.
And Hua Qi, who was walking in front, couldn't help but laugh.
"Qi'er, what are you laughing at? So happy. Behind him, Zhan Tianfeng strode towards him, looking at Hua Qi with a doting smile.
"It's nothing, I just think Xuan'er should find a concubine!" After speaking, Hua Qi began to cover her mouth and laugh.
"Oh, is it?" Zhan Tian asked Zhan Xuan as he grabbed Hua Qi.
"That, Erchen will retire first!" Without waiting for Zhan Tianfeng's consent, Zhan Xuan fled in the wilderness.
Leaving Hanagi with a chuckle.
Under the sunset, Huaqi and Zhan Tianfeng leaned side by side.
Tianfeng, it's so beautiful here.
Then live here for the rest of your life and stay with me.
The melodious sound of the piano is drowned out by the dark fragrance, and has been embroidered on the surface of the water by a wisp of breeze.
Inside the Fengyi Palace.
A phoenix-crowned woman took the delicate teacup, lifted the tea lid, put it on the tip of her nose and smelled it for a while, before pursing her lips and drinking.
A eunuch knelt on the ground and reported in a shrill voice: "Niangniang, the master of Shuiyue Pavilion is here today." It was His Majesty who brought it back personally. and have lived. After speaking, he raised his eyes and peeked at the woman's face.
I saw that the woman's eyelids were not raised, she blew lightly, took a small sip from the teacup, and said leisurely: "Oh?
"It's true! the little one saw it with his own eyes!" said the eunuch at once, and rolled his eyes.
"Got it. There is a reward. The woman who was called Niangniang put down the teacup with her orchid fingers, supported her head with one hand, and said lazily.
"Xie Niangniang. Hey. The eunuch laughed and knelt backwards.
Niangniang glanced at a palace maid on the side, only to see the palace maid nodding slightly.
After a while, there was a miserable cry outside the house, and blood was splattered on the ground.
"I don't know what is alive or dead. The mother touched her long nails and glanced at them contemptuously.
Lingfu.
"Wow, Brother Ling, your family is so big!" Yao'er walked in the corridor for a long time, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
"I fancy which room to live in, this is a garden, it's all empty. Ling Yuan said with a smile.
"Wow......" Yao'er stuck out her tongue and glanced at Hehuan, with an expression of being rich.
Hehuan rolled his eyes amusedly, spread his hands, and said to Ling Yuan, "Where's the chicken soup?"
Ling Yuan looked at Hehuan and said with a smile, "Yours are indispensable." Feel relieved. ”
Seventh Brother and Mei Niang followed behind with a smile and a smile.
Bai Suxiao and Mo Tian walked at the end of everyone without saying a word.
"Mo Tian, who shot the hidden weapon in the body of the poppy senior, and what is the purpose?" Bai Suxiao thought for a moment.
Mo Tian put the sword into the sheath with a "click" and said, "I don't know, the only thing I know for sure is that this matter is not so simple." ”
"How can you see it?" Bai Suxiao hurriedly threw away the dog tail grass in his mouth, and caught up with Mo Tian and asked impatiently.
Mo Tian glanced at Bai Suxiao, looked indifferent, and walked forward instead.
"No, Mo Tian, do you have to be so cold? Just ask a question, can't you answer it? Hey, hey!"
Bai Suxiao watched Mo Tian go farther and farther, so he had to speed up his pace and catch up.
On the other side of the wall, a figure flickered.
"Wow! Hehuan! look! there is a pond!" Yao'er ran over with joy, stood on the edge of the pool, and sprinkled the water into the sky, drawing an arc and falling crystal clear.
He Huan looked at Yao'er's happy appearance, and couldn't help but smile when he thought of the ignorant appearance that he had brought her out at the beginning.
Just as everyone was laughing, a melodious guzheng sound came from the back mountain.
"When I was in the middle of the day, I was as quiet as the night sky, and under the stars, I was unmistakably anonymous. Powerless to save the king, a grain of barley finally brought all beings back to forgiveness. ”
The singing voice like a song made everyone fascinated, and the open-mindedness and helplessness of the meaning of the word tugged at everyone's heartstrings, it must be a lovely person.
Ling Yuan saw that everyone had stopped, so he said with a smile: "This is my little sister playing a clumsy trick, and it makes everyone laugh." ”
"Nope. This girl's singing voice is very beautiful. Mo Tian actually opened his mouth and boasted.
Bai Suxiao grew his mouth, this was the first time he heard Mo Tiankua a woman.
He Huan stood by the pool, the breeze blowing her hair, she looked at Mo Tian from a distance, and then lowered her eyes.
The sound of the piano was suddenly interrupted, and after a slight sigh was heard, there was no more sound.
When everyone went around to the back of the rockery, they saw a pavilion, and the pink gauze curtain was raised with the wind, confusing everyone's sight.
And only one zither sighed quietly in the pavilion.
The beauty is gone, but there is no smile.
Hehuan looked at the pavilion in a daze, and did not move his steps for a long time.
"Hehuan, let's go! Let's eat something delicious!" Yao'er obviously didn't notice Hehuan's mood, but still cheered and took Hehuan's hand, dragged Hehuan to the house.
And Hehuan couldn't help but look back at the pavilion, as if he vaguely saw a pale yellow cloth blowing with the pink curtains.
Mo Tian walked in front with a boundless face, and Bai Suxiao asked Mo Tian in his ear: "Do you have a crush on this beauty?
Mo Tian really couldn't help it, suddenly stopped and turned around, and Bai Suxiao bumped into it all of a sudden.
I only heard Mo Tian say solemnly: "Bai Suxiao, warn you one last time, don't bother me anymore." ”
Bai Suxiao raised his hands above his head and made a gesture of surrender with a helpless expression, expressing his agreement.
When Mo Tian turned around, Bai Suxiao leaned forward again: "You're interested in that girl, right?"
The dream interpreter is the wind, whose sword can pierce the rainbow?
The pale yellow clothes flutter in the wind, and the jade hairpin is lightly inserted, do you know that I have been waiting for you here for a long time?
