The knock on the door was soft and unhurried. Zhou Xu followed Li Sang's example and put his ear against the door to see if there was that soft voice reaching his ears.

but don't want to...

"Heng Zhi, did you fall asleep?" the person outside the door asked softly.

Zhou Xu clicked his tongue, straightened his clothes, opened the door, and said with a smile, "No." Just as he was about to invite the emperor in for a cup of tea, he saw that he was neatly dressed, his hair was tied up, and he looked like he was going out, so he asked Said: "Brother, what's the matter?"

The emperor looked at him and said with a smile: "It's not a big deal, I just want to invite you to go to the night market in Guzhou and meet someone by the way."

Zhou Xu's heart shuddered. His brother said that taking him to meet people must be nothing good.

After changing his clothes, Zhou Xu didn't dare to keep the emperor waiting, so he walked out of the cabin with him in fear, not wanting to cause too much noise.

On the shore, the moonlight is bright, and you can see clearly without turning on the lights. After turning around the pier, the voices and lights in the market gradually become thicker.Guzhou is full of river freshness, and the street market at night is clamoring for the sale of crayfish, each of which is as big as two thumbs. Spicy and five-spice garlic paste is sold by the catty, which is not like selling by the individual in the capital, which is cheap and beautiful.

Seeing Zhou Xu's eyes lingering among the crayfish, the emperor smiled and said, "Hengzhi likes it, so just buy a basket and take it home."

"It won't be too late to buy after meeting the man my brother said." Zhou Xu said in his heart, although this crayfish is delicious, he doesn't know if he still has the heart to eat it later.

This Guzhou is a land of beauties, in addition to crayfish, of course, there are also ladies with soft voices, sweet, sweet, and graceful figures all over the street. The smell of lobster or powder along the way makes passers-by drunk.

The emperor led him to turn a few alleys familiarly, and came to an ordinary courtyard with lanterns. There was neither a plaque nor a door number, so the two doormen stood outside with their heads listless, as if they were opening the door. place of business.

As soon as the doorman saw the two of them, he immediately became energetic and bowed to invite them to enter.Entering the gate of the courtyard, turning around several rockeries, bypassing several corridors, the two were led to a small wing room that was neither a main hall nor a guest room.There are all kinds of beds, tables and tea tables in the house, and the antique toys are also quite strong, which shows that the owner has very good taste.

As soon as the two entered the room, someone sat down and served tea, Zhou Xu sat down and took a sip of tea, and then saw a well-behaved maid enter the room and said: "Please wait a moment, my son is changing clothes, he will be here in a while. "

Zhou Xu was surprised, who would dare to use the reason of changing clothes to make the emperor wait, that would be interesting.

Sure enough, within a short while, Zhou Xu heard the sound of footsteps approaching, and the carved door was slowly pushed open. She was dressed in plain clothes, and her hair was half tied up.

It's been a long time since I saw her, her appearance has not diminished, but there is a little more charm between her brows and eyes.

Alas, besides Yueqing, who else could be such a stunning person?

The person who has thought about it thousands of times, the reunion scene that has been thought about thousands of times, now that this person is in front of him, Zhou Xu feels a little dazzling, lowers his head, takes a cup of tea, takes a sip, his hands trembling a little.

"Yueqing, I've been waiting for you." The emperor smiled at the corner of his mouth, raised his eyebrows and looked at the man with joy on his face.

Yue Qing was stunned for a moment, and said with bent eyebrows, "Why does the emperor call me that way on weekdays? It's better as usual." Since he knew that the two people in front of him were the emperor and the prince, he didn't even bow to him, but came forward to cheer for them. tea.

Sure enough, Concubine Jing's words were true, ha, ha.

Zhou Xu laughed twice in his heart. He didn't know what he was laughing at, so he thought it was very funny.The two of them are pretending to show me now, why bother?

Zhou Xu saw the white clothes swaying in front of his eyes without raising his eyes, watching the pair of white and thin hands making tea for him, and the ancient porcelain cup was full of clear water.

"My lord, long time no see." The voice was still calm and familiar.

"Yes, how is Mr. Bai?" Zhou Xu's tone was also calm. He didn't have the strength to say anything, all his strength was to control the trembling of his body.

Yueqing's tea making hands visibly shook, and a few drops of tea fell on the table.

Before he could answer, the emperor laughed and said: "Yue Qing is probably happy when she is not in the palace now."

Yueqing put down the teapot, sat opposite Zhou Xu and said, "Of course everything outside is not as good as the palace."

Zhou Xu smiled, said nothing, lowered his eyes, and in a moment the cup of tea was drained. He reached for the teapot, but Yue Qing preempted him. His hand hung in the air, paused, and retracted.

Yueqing made tea for him, and it was another cup of Biyingying.

"Since my lord likes this tea so much, I'll take some back later." Yue Qing said with a smile.

"Then thank Mr. Bai first." Zhou Xu raised the corner of his mouth reluctantly and continued to drink tea.

The emperor raised his eyebrows, looked at Zhou Xu who had been burying his head in the teacup with interest, and said, "Pour him a cup of ink now, and he might drink one cup after another."

"Brother Huang was joking, this tea is indeed very good." Zhou Xu glanced at the emperor, his tone still calm.

The emperor squinted at Zhou Xu, and said, "Why, the Yueqing you think about day and night is right in front of you, and you are reluctant to lift your eyelids?"

"..." Zhou Xu felt his temples twitching, his eyes were turning gray, and his palms were sweating.

Yue Qing smiled and said, "Your Majesty, don't embarrass the prince."

The emperor raised the corner of his mouth and said to Yue Qing: "You are protecting him."

Yue Qing was noncommittal, and asked with a smile: "Why is the emperor thinking of coming here today?"

"It's been a long time since I've heard your piano sound, so think about it, and then—" The emperor cast a sidelong glance at Zhou Xu, raised the corner of his mouth and said, "I guess Hengzhi has never heard Yueqing's piano sound?"

Zhou Xu's hand trembled suddenly, his face turned pale.Indeed, he spent half a year with Yueqing day and night, but he never heard his piano sound.

Everyone was silent, and after a while, Yue Qing said to Zhou Xu: "I'm afraid the prince has offended the emperor? The emperor is so angry with you on purpose."

The emperor smiled, noncommittal, Zhou Xu twitched the corners of his mouth, and said with a dry smile: "How dare I, life and death depend on what the emperor says." That's right, he was the one who said that day, Li Sang, he didn't dare to stay .

The emperor pondered for a moment, and said coldly: "It's good to know forever." After taking a sip of tea, he turned to Yueqing and said, "You don't know, my brother, I have a lot of people in my heart. It was you before, but now There is another handsome young master, and I don't know who else, I'm afraid he will spend his whole life stepping on a few boats like this."

The corners of Zhou Xu's eyes twitched, and she pursed her lips tightly. Yue Qing smiled and said, "When I was in the palace, the prince always treated me like a family member. It's not what the emperor thinks—" Standing up while speaking, slowly Stepping up to a guqin, he said, "What music does your lord want to hear?"

Zhou Xu raised his eyes slightly, and saw that the guqin was pitch black and glowing with green light, like green vines wrapped around an ancient tree. Yue Qing, who was dressed in plain clothes, was sitting beside the qin, elegant and enchanting.

The emperor seemed not to be surprised, squinted at Zhou Xu's reaction, twitched the corner of his mouth, and said lightly: "Follow Yueqing's state of mind."

Yueqing nodded knowingly, lowered her eyebrows and stroked her sleeves, flicked her fingertips, and spoke eloquently, causing ripples in everyone's hearts.

The moonlight is light, the night fog is getting thicker, a song is played, the night wind is blowing, and I feel a little cool in a thin shirt.

Before the lingering sound fell, the emperor and Zhou Xu talked about the past.

Two years ago, in Guzhou, it was also June, the plum rain had just passed, the ground was full of basil, and the mackerel was fattening.

The concubine has been ill for more than half a year, depressed all day long, long-term illness breeds depression, and depression becomes illness. No matter how many imperial physicians have been changed, thousands of medicines have been tried, but there is still no improvement in the slightest.

The crown prince, who is the current emperor, heard that there is a folk doctor named Saburo, who is so skilled in medicine that he can even bring people back to life.But his whereabouts are the most elusive, the prince sent someone to investigate for two months, only to find out that he might be in Guzhou at that time.The news is not 100% accurate, but it is worth a try.

During those days, because of the concubine's illness, the prince had trouble sleeping and eating, and was depressed all day long. He also wanted to take this opportunity to take Guzhou in a trance, first to go out to relax, and second, to find the elusive and elusive Saburo, who would be a dead horse as a living horse doctor anyway. stop.

Unexpectedly, Saburo the Mighty Hand didn't find it, but met someone.

It rained in the afternoon that day, and in the evening, the emperor entered a restaurant by the river, which was the one they had been to at noon.The delicacy of mackerel is famous all over the world. The more the imperial court banned diners, the more curious they became. It is said that mackerel is eaten in Guzhou, and the most famous restaurant in Guzhou is the restaurant.

The prince was curious, so he asked Xiaoer to make the scorpion. Unfortunately, a customer in front also ordered the scorpion, but there was only one left in the building. Compensation is not, but there is no way, it is always the principle of first come first served.The shopkeeper pointed to a table next to the window and said, it was the guest officer who ordered the mackerel first.

The prince followed the direction of the shopkeeper, there was only a man in plain clothes sitting at the table, his back was tall and slender, quite handsome, he looked like a young man, his back was facing them, the prince stared at them for a while, but didn't pay much attention.

Yue Lang, who was with him, wanted to exchange a hundred times the price with the young man for the mackerel, but the crown prince refused, so the two had to sit down at the next table and order some fresh vegetables.

It is said that this fish is plump and delicious, smelling it, even monks want to return to vulgarity, the prince felt regretful, but he couldn't do anything about it.

Not long after, Xiao Er brought the finished mackerel and sent it to the table by the window. As soon as the dishes came out, the fragrance filled the building.

I saw the young man in plain clothes whispered a few words to Xiao Er, Xiao Er opened his eyes and smiled, and brought the plate of mackerel in white sauce to the prince's table, saying, it was a gift from the little guest officer at the table by the window.

The prince was both surprised and happy in his heart, he hurriedly turned around, the young man cupped his hands towards him, smiled faintly, his eyes were full of spring breeze.

The emperor was stunned, unable to speak for a long time.

This person actually had the same face as the Crown Princess. At first glance, he really looked exactly like him. On closer inspection, his brows were clearer, and there were more edges and corners on his face. Three points for the princess.
