Anthurium blood

The rain in Jiang Country lasted for seven consecutive days.

Originally, Jiangguo was located in Huaiyin, with abundant rainfall.In the season of Huangmei, it will be normal for the next half month.But this time, first, it was bad because of the time. In March, there was no need for so much rain, and it would be annoying if there was too much; , It's like the Milky Way pouring down, the ocean basin pouring, making people unable to distinguish day and night.

Although the Yuanqing Mansion had dug a three-foot-deep waterway earlier, the sewage still accumulated in the courtyard.Because of the rain, Wei Cheng received an unconventional reward, so he warmed up in the side hall for a while.

Wei Cheng is a child of an aristocratic family, and has learned the rules since he was a child.Even though he hadn't seen the princess at the moment, he lowered his head, not daring to look at the furnishings in the side hall.He only felt that the side hall was cold, and the fragrance of flowers and plants hurriedly moved from the garden wafted across the room.When I couldn't help shrinking my body because the dampness had not dissipated, what I saw inadvertently were lavender petals, very similar to the color of acacia.A moment later, a maidservant in Tsing Yi entered the palace.She blessed her body slightly, and said in a soft voice, "My lord, the princess invites you to enter the hall. Go with the maidservant."

Wei Cheng thanked her and followed her through the corridor into the lobby.Although the lights are dim along the way, it can be seen that the layout is exquisite. The glazed lamps hanging every ten steps reflect the begonias through the window, leaving unclear shadows.

The head-on heating wiped away the last bit of wetness from Wei Cheng's body, and he couldn't help being shocked.

He raised his head slightly, and saw Princess Jingjie kneeling behind the jade carving table, casually putting a few incense sticks in the burner.A wisp of white smoke rises slowly, and the fragrance escapes, fragrant and graceful, like Baihexiang.

"Princess." The little maid called softly, "Lord Wei is here."

Jing Jie didn't raise his head, but only glanced at Wei Cheng from the corner of his eye: "Didn't your lord go to invite the crane girl? It's hard to welcome distinguished guests in Yuanqing Mansion." Her voice was cold, not like broken jade, but like a set The sound of broken glass falling on the ground.

Jingjie is the Princess of Yin who was proclaimed by the emperor. She is under one person and above ten thousand people. Even the queen has to be courteous.When Jing Jie opened his mouth in such a sarcasm, Wei Cheng couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

He smiled bitterly, and said: "Princess, I have betrayed my servant. Today, I took the golden seal and rushed to Heqi Mountain. I saw Mrs. Henu at the mountain gate, and Mrs. Henu said..."

Let Jingjie come.

Wei Cheng walked to the mountain gate this morning, and was surprised that there was no rain falling around. The crane girl was standing among the flowers and leaves in a white wide-sleeved long dress, like a phoenix nestling in a phoenix tree, surrounded by a gentle glow.As the breeze blew, her sleeves showed some blue water, she really looked like a fairy girl of the Nine Heavens, without a little bit of human fireworks.With some cold compassion in her eyes, she said softly: "Let Jing Jie come."

"She wants Jing Jie to go." Jing Jie muttered in a low voice, then raised her head again, and stared at Wei Cheng with those pale eyes, with some indistinguishable emotions.She repeated again: "She wants Jingjie to go."

Wei Cheng raised his head slightly, the princess was already approaching, that frost-like face was still cold, but the phoenix eyes were as calm as a quiet lake, and there was no difference in sight: "Your Majesty, please come with me."

Wei Cheng naturally agreed.

Heqi Mountain is a hundred miles away from Yuanqing Mansion, and it only takes less than an hour for BMW to travel quickly, but now the wind is strong, the rain is pouring, and the official roads are also flooded, so Jingjie can only go there by boat with Wei Cheng.All I saw along the way were people who abandoned their houses and went to Weiyun Mountain by boat. The boats were densely packed and paddling became more difficult. Fortunately, there were people clearing the way around Jingjie, and the white clothes thought that Princess Jingjie probably left the mansion to invite cranes. Nu Xiangzhu, the time to arrive at Mount Heqi was much earlier than Wei Cheng expected.

Jing Jie put on a coat and walked to the mountain gate. He Nu was already standing on the jade steps waiting for her, her indifferent and compassionate eyes suddenly became brighter.

Her head was tilted a little, showing a faint smile, which was a bit like her original appearance.She called Jing Jie, using her previous name, everything seemed to be yesterday, the three-year absence was just a dream, all the estrangement and resentment were just accompanying dreams

A useless bitter medicine.After waking up from the dream, it doesn't count.

She called: "Ayan."

Ah Yan.

It must have been a long time since Jingjie had heard anyone call her that.Her mother is Princess Chengqing, and her father is Marquis Anping. They called her this way before she was eight years old. Later, because His Majesty's descendants were few and there was no princess of the right age to accompany Henu, Yubi Yidian named her Princess Jingjie. There is no such thing as honor or inferiority.

In the whole world, there are only two people who can call her Ayan, and there is only one person who is willing to call her Ayan.

Xu Shi hadn't seen such a warm Xi He for a long time, and Shimmer dragged Jing Jie into an old dream.

At that time, she was Xinli's princess. When she first arrived at Heqi Mountain, Henu stood on the steps in a red skirt and waited for her.He Nu raised her chin proudly and said, "I call you Dan, where is the princess?" She was amazed by He Nu's arrogance and beauty on the first day, and also knew her name "Dan" on the first day.

In this way, she spent eight years guarding Heqi Mountain with her.From what she thought, nothing happened during the period, and there was no need to mention it.

Memories of the past can always prolong time, Jing Jie thought he had been thinking about it for a long time, but in fact it was only a moment.When she came back to her senses, she found that the crane girl had been watching her carefully, her eyes were as soft as water.

She has read poetry and books since she was a child, she is very intelligent, and she is as decisive as the queen mother of the former dynasty when a strong man broke his wrist.But at this moment, facing Dan's gaze, she didn't know what to do.

Jingjie had no choice but to think about it, and picked out the business to avoid such an embarrassing situation for her: "The people are worried about the flood, so please ask the crane girl to help." Jingjie saluted neatly, and happened to miss Dan's eyes.

But the time she raised her head, the crane girl had already landed beside her.Danwei raised his drooping eyes and looked at her affectionately.It seems that no matter how many people there are in the world, these eyes can only hold her princess: "Of course I want to help, Ayan. Flamingo will never reject the princess." These words are as light as ghosts, faintly revealing Very unusual.

How should you deal with a person who was once close to you, but after a few years of seeing each other, his temperament has changed drastically, as if he has been completely reborn?

Jing Jie was suddenly speechless, but felt in his heart that he should speak.So she opened her mouth and called out: "Dan..." But she couldn't think of the next sentence.

Dan just looked at her quietly, calm and serene.

Not long after, it was Dan who broke the deadlock of Gu Gu's speechlessness.She tilted her head and said: "Princess follow me into the Red Feather Palace."

Wei Cheng stood far away, occasionally a few words drifted towards him with the wind.He just pretended not to hear, but he couldn't help thinking about it inside.

What is the relationship between the princess and the fire crane?

If the legend that everyone knows is separated by thousands of rivers and mountains, Wei Cheng has no intention of exploring it.But now that the two of them are standing a few feet away, his little curiosity has been completely aroused, and he has easily crossed the family rules of "no one listens to any indecent insults, no thought of indecent insults", and also surpassed his usual ignorance of understanding and caring for the human body. stick.

The story of the princess and the crane girl is a picture scroll of Yunmeng covered with gold powder.Everyone can tell this story with wine, but Wei Cheng has never heard of anyone delving into the feelings of the princess and the crane girl.

Everyone knows that Crane Lady Xia followed Phoenix Goddess to Penglai Xiandao after bathing in fire.Passing through the country of Jiang, Princess Cheng Yan healed her wounds with a drop of fairy dew.Xia was grateful in her heart, and she resigned from the Phoenix Saintess to stay, and blocked the once-in-a-hundred-year hurricane for Jiangguo.Princess Chengyan also feels his kindness, and has been in close contact with Xia since then, with deep affection.Unfortunately, half a year later, the princess and Henuxia haven't seen each other for decades.

And Jixiu Mountain in Jiangguo was renamed Heqi Mountain, and Henvxia lived on it.

This is the asylum the princess seeks for the weak Jiang country, and it is also the reason why they can no longer see each other.A person who is quite popular, with the help of the fire crane, no matter if he is a man or a woman, he will become a thorn in the emperor's flesh, suspicious and jealous, and everyone is indispensable.The princess didn't want to cause such trouble, so she chose not to see her.

The princess's kind heart and He Nuxia's kindness have been talked about by the people for decades, and Cheng Yan is getting old.She knew her time was approaching.Before she died, she begged Xia not to leave, just for the original friendship.

In fact, there is no need to ask for it.As long as she stroked Xia's face with her hand and smiled, Xia could not help herself.Cheng Yan knew it himself.Even if she and Xia haven't seen each other for decades, she will still continue to bless Jianguo for the kindness of that drop of fairy dew and the companionship for half a year.

Wei Cheng's grandmother was only 14 years old at that time, and she took care of the eldest princess before her death as usual.At that time, she was folding the medicine handkerchief that the princess had used, and vaguely heard Henuxia say: "Princess, I will never forget your kindness."

It seems that it has lasted until now, just for such a sentence, and the princess went away with peace of mind after hearing it.

Crane girl Xia still wanted to leave, but before she left, she gave Jiang Guo a new crane girl.She said: "There is a flamingo who is responsible for the crime. Her mortal heart is still there, and her obsession is still there...give her a princess, then...you can do whatever you want."

Princess Chengyu is to blame.

Later, Princess Chengyu passed away, and Jiu also left.Like inheritance, she also left behind a girl, and she also wants a princess.

Jiang's royal family was finally satisfied, and finally able to be a restful person.No emperor from another country dared to declare war on Jiang, no matter how powerful he was or how cruel and stupid he was.

Since then, there has been an unwritten rule that every crane girl and the chosen princess will stay together in Heqi Mountain for eight years.Eight years later, the chance of the crane girl and the princess meeting again is slim.Often, the day of goodbye is the time when the princess will die.

Obviously just need to leave.Wei Cheng thought, why should he hang the shackles around his neck when he could break them by himself?

He raised his head, but the princess and the crane girl had disappeared.

Suddenly realizing that his thoughts could be called outrageous, he interrupted his thoughts in shock.

Heqi Mountain didn't change much, Jingjie looked all the way, and the acacia flower also fell quietly all the way, hitting Tan Yu's body, gently shattering.

The Red Feather Palace is hidden in the green mist and long leaves, Jing Jie secretly described its appearance in his heart.It seems to be the same as before, with mahogany and golden carvings, and flying phoenixes on the pillars.There are a few wind chimes hanging on the eaves, and when Jing Jie sees them, they will make a soft ring.This should have been hung up after she left, it doesn't seem like a major change.

Dean pushed open the door, a scent of fragrant wood spread out, Jing Jie walked in and took a quick look, only to see thousands of golden bells hanging on several long ropes across the main hall, and a jade statue of the Phoenix Goddess stood in the center of the main hall , surrounded by a circle of fragrant wood, with a Fuling properly placed on it, simple and elegant, matte and mysterious.The repressed look of a weapon on it can even vaguely feel the Jingjie of the mortal body.

"This is slightly different from the layout when you left." Dan sighed softly, "But it always has to change. The sea has changed into mulberry fields, and weapons have changed into blessings. What in this world is eternal?"

Delay broke a fragrant wood branch and lit it with the spark of a boneless lamp.The aroma quietly continued in the air, swirling slightly and spreading out.

There were only Jingjie and Dan in the hall, neither of them spoke, leaving the room silent.

"Ayan, since you left, I..." Dan suddenly said.

"Stop talking." Jing Jie reprimanded lightly, "Stop talking, Mrs. He Nu."

Dan's face turned pale, and he said softly: "You are always like this, Ayan. I couldn't stand you before..."

"Did I do something wrong?" Jing Jie looked at Dan, her beautiful eyes were extremely dull.

Along the way, she was reflecting on the mistakes she made.She has plenty of reasons not to fall in love with her, and she doesn't need to fall in love with her.Her previous embarrassment was too much to be ridiculous, but when she figured it out, it wasn't her who was ridiculous.

Dan looked at her quietly for a while, then lowered his head slightly, without answering, only looking at the fragrant wood.

The last wisp of green smoke from the fragrant wood in his hand was cut off, and he enshrined the remaining piece beside the jade statue, stretched out his jade white hand to hold the Fuling, and shook it gently.

It may be a dance.

Dan is a flamingo, with wide sleeves spread out when holding the fuling bell above her head, but it looks like a butterfly the color of a frozen lake, mysterious and soft, as if the snow of the ages has fallen on her body and melted into her flesh and blood.

During this time, the dark fragrance floated, and the silvery-white flames that appeared out of thin air splashed everywhere, and then slowly disappeared with the end of the long movement.

After finishing, Dan put the Fuling back to its original position, Jingjie could see the sleepiness between her brows.

"Princess, I said I will help you." Dan Wei closed his eyes, as if extremely tired. "The name of this dance is 'Fei', and it can control thousands of miles of wind and cloud changes. The rain in Jiangguo should have stopped now."

Jing node nodded and thanked Tan Xing.After thinking for a moment, she asked again: "What about the flood deposits on the ground?"

"Tomorrow," Dan opened his eyes and shook his head lightly, as if to drive away the tangible sleepiness. "I have no strength now, and tomorrow I will take away this trouble."

After finishing the answer, he turned into a prototype, flapped his wings and flew to the long rope, then curled up and rested lightly: "Ayan, I haven't seen you for three years, and you have changed a lot."

Jing Jie turned around and stood there blankly for a moment, in Dan's eyes, she was still that cool and steady beauty.She sighed softly, as if she was reading a scripture that was too difficult for her teeth: "People are always going to change. My lord... just rest."

"Don't go!" Jing Jie only took one step, and Dan stopped her as if he had rehearsed a thousand times.

It fell to the ground and took human form.

She closed the door, and pressed her back firmly against it: "Ayan...Princess, please don't go!"

"Why are you doing this?" Jing Jie only said this sentence.

Jing Jie suddenly remembered that there was nothing wrong with her and Dan in the first few years in Heqi Mountain.You can even say, very happy.She was young at that time, and when she saw Mrs. Henu, who was already so beautiful, she instinctively wanted to get closer.Dan is stubborn and proud, but he can't beat people with smiles. In less than half a year, the two of them are like brothers.

Obviously that's fine.Unfortunately, Dan fell in love with her.Like, Xue Susu fell in love with Shun Xiuyu.

"I've been thinking about it for three whole years... Ah Yan, if I hadn't let you go back then, you and I were still in Heqi Mountain, and I would have no regrets!" Dan Yong looked straight at Jing Jie with those eyes, as if making an oath. "There is nothing wrong with me...my looks, my roots, and my infatuation are all bad. Jing Jie, stay with me for half a year." Dan actually shed tears.She threw away all her dignity, and softly begged the cruel princess: "Stay with me for half a year, and I will be satisfied."

Jing Jie was startled, she didn't expect her to do this.Dan never wanted others to see her cry, even if Jing Jie hurt her time and time again, she never shed a single tear in front of Jing Jie.

"...Dan... You know it's impossible." She said slowly, "The rule has always been eight years. At the end of eight years, the fate is exhausted. You have already gained one more day, so don't ask for more."

"That's the rule established by your Yan family." Dan straightened his back and looked at her with sad eyes, "Huohe always agrees...but not this time."

Jing Jie sighed, "Why do you bother?"

"Why should I?" Dan Wenyan actually laughed, "Why should the princess ask me? Why should I obediently listen to you and help you get rid of the disaster? Fire Crane owes the princess, and it has been paid off... Later, all It is the princess who owes Huohe. Princess, do you really not know or fake? What Huohe does for the princess is always out of friendship."

"Enough." Jing Jie stopped softly, but he didn't expect that these two words would drive him crazy.

"You've always been like this!" Dan screamed, covering her face with her hands, her nails pierced her face, leaving a little blood.

Jingjie heard from Guzheng, who had stayed on the mountain to serve, that since she left, Dan has become more and more surly and extreme.It's just that she is arrogant by nature, usually cold and cheerless, so she doesn't really show her self-satisfied side.When Jing Jie left, he guessed so.In other words, since she refused to delay like that, Dan has gone half crazy.It's just that she was crazy in an extremely methodical manner, so crazy that it was almost impossible to guess. According to what her mother said after hearing it, she was not crazy, but possessed by a demon.

Dan was like a dying fish, struggling to breathe for a long time, and then seemed to have lost all his strength, he couldn't even breathe.In the end, she only whispered: "Ayan, I was wondering if I was wrong. I shouldn't have let you see so many people, let alone let you see your mother. The royal family... the royal family has always been Look down on the flamingo."

She was talking about old things seven years ago.Jing Jie was still young at that time, and he had been away from his mother for a long time, so naturally he couldn't imagine it.Delay entrusted the blue bird to King Xuan, reunited Jingjie with his parents for two months, and happily enjoyed the blessings that a princess should be entitled to.The royal family looked down on Flamingo... all previous Crane Girls knew it.What they love is Phoenix, and they are crazy about Phoenix.Tan said that, but he thought that his princess was pure and pure, and was spoiled by others.

She knew that it was not that her princess never liked her.It's just that I don't love her and don't want her.She was going to die, or rather, had died.All she wants is to be alone.She had believed that the princess loved her, and then she found out that she was wrong, very wrong.

"Ayan, I recalled last night, that day, I stood among the acacia flowers, and you under the acacia tree, softly recited 'Pinkwood Fragrance'. You thought the flowers were accidentally blown by the breeze, but in fact ...I secretly took a breath of fresh air, turned it into a breeze, and put the best flowers in your hair. Tell me, let's go back to that day, shall we?"

She looked like she was about to cry again.If you listen to her tone, it is true.

Dan cautiously walked towards Jing Jie, step by step, full of sadness and hidden hope.

When she was only one step away from Jingjie, she stopped.Jing Jie still looked deserted, and he didn't seem to be interested in this person in his eyes.But she still hugged Jing Jie lightly, it was cold and icy.

Jing Jie pushed her away forcefully.

She just stood there.After a long time, she asked foolishly, "Princess, do you agree to what I asked you four years ago?"

She asked anyway.She never dared to ask again, because she was afraid of getting the answer she didn't want again.It is also a blessing to be able to deceive yourself.But at this moment, she understood that if she didn't ask, she would have nothing.She is not afraid of not being able to spend the rest of her life with her princess.Whether Jingjie agrees or not, she doesn't have to die with endless hopes that the princess might love her.What's more, she just wanted an answer that would make her completely give up.

"Four years ago, I said too much. But Master Huohe, I still dare not think about it." Jing Jie's voice seemed to keep her away from her thousands of miles away.She took a step back, bowed to Tan, and then gently opened the door.

Delay did not stop Jingjie.She just said: "Jing Jie, don't forget what you said back then. You said you wanted me to die."

Jing Jie stopped in her tracks, tilted her head slightly and said, "I just said it. I said it too much back then. I will apologize to my lord now, and I hope my lord will forgive me." Afterwards, she closed the door and closed the door by the way. The last bit of light left only a place of loneliness and despair.
