Cherish the other side

Perhaps the most beautiful season in Fancheng is now.The coldness of early spring is often captured by the warm sun inadvertently, and the vitality of the day after day makes the buds stick out. It seems that in a moment, the colors of flowers are all over the mountains and alleys.

Lu Beiyuan felt that the weather was extremely comfortable, and there was still an hour before the scheduled chess match with Li Qing, but he thought it was a waste of good time and went out early.Ling Zuo didn't take it seriously, and sighed in his heart that God knows why his master is so disturbed.

The street seemed to be extremely lively today, Lu Beiyuan listened to the hawking and wondered if he should buy a gift for Li Qing.Looking around, he felt a little troubled. What suits Li Qing must be good, and of course it must not be expensive, otherwise Li Qing would never accept it.Thinking about it this way, Lu Beiyuan went straight to a fancy shop in Fancheng.

Stepping into the store door with ease, he saw a man writing something at the table. "Su Lijin, do me a favor." Lu Beiyuan casually found a stool and sat down, looking at the man who was writing.Hearing the sound, the man at the table raised his head, saw the person coming with a pair of red phoenix eyes, and smiled at the corner of his mouth, "My lord, you are really welcome." Su Lijin stood up, sorted out the paper he had just written on with both hands, and continued, " Tell me, what are you busy with?"

Su Lijin looks very good-looking, Lu Beiyuan does not deny that he is a rare face he has seen, not more handsome than women, but more charming than women.Unlike Li Qing, if Li Qing gave people the feeling of warmth that he wanted to get close to, then Su Lijin was unpredictable and enchanting.As Lu Beiyuan once said jokingly, this elegant and unique shop is not suitable for him at all, it would be better to open a brothel.Of course, Su Lijin rolled his eyes afterwards.

"Do you have anything special but not expensive here?" Lu Beiyuan simply explained the purpose of his visit.

"It's too difficult to understand what you're saying. What are you going to do?" Su Lijin picked up a stack of papers on the table, turned around and walked to the counter to put them away.

"I want to give it away as a gift." Lu Beiyuan looked around to see if there was anything he liked.

"Hey, what kind of girl has you taken a fancy to and came to my place in person, so thoughtful?" Su Lijin teased amusedly.

"It's not a girl, it's a man. It's about the same age as you. Just help me look for it seriously, don't smile."

Hearing this, Su Lijin's body with his back turned was startled, the smile on the corner of his mouth suddenly disappeared, Su Lijin turned to look at Lu Beiyuan, the corners of his mouth raised nicely, as if he didn't exist at that moment just now, "I have."

This is a clear jade pendant.When Lu Beiyuan saw it for the first time, he felt that coming to Su Lijin was the right choice.The patterns carved with roses and vases symbolize the peace of the year, and the meticulous carvings are lifelike. The most special thing is that the luster of this piece of jade complements the transparency of the color, which seems to be the only one in the world.Lu Beiyuan felt that this was really suitable for Li Qing.

After leaving Su Lijin's shop, Lu Beiyuan reckoned that it was almost time, so he walked towards the school.

Li Qing also came to the school early at this time, humming a tune and preparing new tea, maybe he didn't realize how good he was in a good mood.So when Lu Beiyuan walked into the school, he saw such a peaceful scene.

Sensing the sound, Li Qing turned around, "Are you here? Come and sit down, this is the new tea this year, try it."

Lu Beiyuan nodded and walked straight towards the stone table.

"This is given to me by my master. I don't know much about tea ceremony, so I just drink it casually. Don't mind." Li Qing fixed the tea set, poured a cup for Lu Beiyuan, and looked at him expectantly. sitting person.

"How could it be?" Lu Beiyuan said, taking a sip lightly, the fragrance from the tongue coating stimulated the taste buds, which made people feel unsatisfied, "Mingqian's new tea is already top-grade, and your tea art is also very good."

Hearing Lu Beiyuan's words, Li Qing was a little embarrassed, "Mr. Lu was joking."

"I don't mean to be joking, the pot you made is really good." Lu Beiyuan paused, and then continued with a little dissatisfaction, "Also, why did you start calling Mr. Lu, Mr. Lu again?"

Li Qing suddenly realized this problem, and smiled at Lu Beiyuan, "Understood, Beiyuan."

Lu Beiyuan looked at Li Qing, a little dazed, not sure if it was because of his voice or his smile, as if something was dragging him deeper and deeper.

"The weather is very nice today. Instead of playing chess, why don't we go out and walk by the lake?" Li Qing suddenly suggested, calling back Lu Beiyuan who was distracted.

"Very good."

The two of them walked side by side in the streets and alleys of Fancheng, and would discuss any new things they encountered.From a distance, it is indeed a beautiful picture.Not long after the winding road, they arrived at the lake in the suburbs, which was the place where the two met for the first time.

"You fell asleep here last time." Lu Beiyuan looked at Li Qing and said.

"That's right, this is where you made me sick." Li Qing joked.

"That's the next one, isn't it?"

"Forgive you for now." Li Qing turned his head and looked across the lake. The sky was very blue, birds were singing in the distance, and the warm wind blew across his face. The refreshing scenery made Li Qing take a deep breath and close his eyes.

Seeing this, Lu Beiyuan felt a little throbbing in his heart. Looking at Li Qing's lips, he unconsciously leaned forward. When he was about to get close, Lu Beiyuan suddenly recovered and retracted his movements.Then, Li Qing opened his eyes and found Lu Beiyuan with a slightly strange expression.

"What's wrong with you? Are you uncomfortable?" Li Qing asked with concern.

"No, no..." Lu Beiyuan was a little embarrassed, he didn't know how to change the topic, and suddenly he said with a flash of inspiration: "I heard Yu'er said that you sing better than the musicians in the city, can you sing for me?"

"This... is so incompetent, it really flatters me." Li Qing was a little shy.

"Hey, you can't say that. Besides, it's okay to appreciate it as a friend."

"Then, Bei Yuan is not allowed to laugh at me."

"Of course." At this moment, Lu Beiyuan felt the pleasure of a successful plot.

Li Qing looked away from Lu Beiyuan and turned to the other side of the lake just now, then coughed lightly and took a deep breath.

"The stars, frost and lonely moon are far away, leaning on the railing and elegy, and the autumn colors are sad. Sigh and sing the city's sorrow, turn around and cry in sorrow. The flowers bloom and fail, and the water goes to the country. , cherish the other side."

Lu Beiyuan looked at Li Qing who was singing, as if he saw his story, his telling.At the end of the song, the lingering sound lingers on and continues continuously.In an instant, the sex in front of me seemed to disappear, and only the loneliness and sadness in the words appeared.At this moment, Lu Beiyuan really wanted to step forward and hug the person in front of him, as if this was the only way to drive away Li Qing's grief.

Li Qing turned around, looked at Lu Beiyuan and smiled: "You're showing your ugliness. How does Beiyuan feel?"

Seeing Li Qing's smile, Lu Beiyuan was taken aback, as if the sadness in the song just now didn't exist at all. "I have never heard such a beautiful voice, and I have never heard such a sad feeling."

Looking at Lu Beiyuan's staring eyes, Li Qing felt a little turbulent in his heart.At this moment, he wanted to tell the person in front of him his own story.

As if sensing something, Lu Beiyuan quietly did not speak, but just looked at Li Qing affectionately.

"This piece of music was composed by myself after my family members passed away." Li Qing said slowly, "This is a very long story. My father was the elder of the court, because he supported King Li's succession. So I was framed by the current emperor, and the literary prison was full of copies. Because I was young at the time, I was escorted out by my family in the chaos. I found Taifu Pu Huaiyuan to take care of me and changed my name. Afterwards, the Taifu brought me here Life." Li Qing whimpered, lowered his head and paused for a moment, then continued, "At that time, I hated everyone who killed my family, the former king, the pilgrim, the queen mother, and even the entire royal family. I also hate why I survived, but I don't have the ability to take revenge." Li Qing's voice was a little audible crying, Lu Beiyuan was about to say something at this moment, but was blocked by Li Qing's next words. "But now I don't hate it anymore, I figured it out. My family wants me to survive, so I should live and feel life well. Life in Fancheng also makes me calm a lot. I hope to go on like this and replace my family Look at the peace in the world, and never have anything to do with the royal family. Everything is over." After speaking, Li Qing smiled at Lu Beiyuan, he didn't want to bring any pressure to Lu Beiyuan.

When listening to Li Qing's narration, Lu Beiyuan was thinking about this incident: he was also involved in the battle for the throne, and the one who supported him the most at that time must have been King Li, and he himself supported King Li's succession, but it was the Concubine Tian back then. That is to say, the empress dowager made a conspiracy, which led to the current situation.If it is said that Li Daohong was the only one who was exterminated by the literary prison, then Li Qing should be Li Daohong's youngest son, and he himself had seen the young Li Qing in the palace.Thinking of this, Lu Beiyuan was a little happy. He didn't expect that the fate had already happened a long time ago.It's just that, should he conceal his identity as King Fan for a while, facing Li Qing's never getting involved, Lu Beiyuan has a bit of a headache at this time.

Lu Beiyuan stepped forward, took out the jade pendant he got from Su Lijin in the morning, grabbed Li Qing with one hand, and stuffed the jade pendant into Li Qing's hand with the other.Li Qing was a little puzzled, and before he could speak, Lu Beiyuan said, "I saw it and thought it was suitable for you, so I will treat it as a return gift for you singing for me today. I also hope you can know that from now on, you are no longer alone Alone, you can treat me as your family," Lu Beiyuan paused, "Can you?"

The sunshine at this time was just right, just as warm as Li Qing's smile.
