Rebirth: sailing a thousand times

On the table is a simple breakfast, porridge and side dishes.

Mu Liunian scooped up a spoonful of white porridge, looked at Fang Qingchi across from him, remembered hearing him come out at night again last night, and suddenly lost his appetite at all.

Fang Qingchi also noticed the strange expression on his hesitant to speak, and asked warmly, "Liu Nian, what do you want to say?"

Mu Liunian knew that Fang Qingchi had something to hide from him, and he also knew that he should not pry into other people's privacy, not to mention that this person was Fang Qingchi, whom he secretly liked.

Fang Qingchi was very kind to him, but that kind of estrus, almost polite, I don't know whether it was due to his temperament or intentional, and he always kept a distance from him, which made him feel that he had no reason and no position to ask questions.

Mu Liunian was silent for a while, and put down the spoon. At some point, his heart was already on Fang Qingchi, and he also knew that he was a criminal of the imperial court and was shameful, so no matter how much he liked, he couldn't say it out loud, which would delay Fang Qingchi's future. Not to mention, what I fear most is that it will cost his life.

Under Fang Qingchi's cold gaze, he bit his lips, knowing that he shouldn't ask, but he couldn't help asking, "Qingchi, last night...you went out again, didn't you?"

Fang Qingchi looked at him with an inexplicable expression, and Mu Liunian felt ashamed. He lowered his eyelids, stared at the lines on the table, and gently picked the table with his fingertips, "I don't want to care about you... I just Sleeping lightly, I heard the door ring... Well, it's cool at night, put on more clothes when going out..."

"You want to ask me what I did, didn't you?" Fang Qingchi's voice was clear and flat, with no emotion or anger.

Mu Liunian lowered his head, his eyelashes trembled twice in embarrassment, his knuckles were tense, and after a long while, he asked nonchalantly, "Are you looking for fun?"

For several days in a row, I only went out when it was dark. What are you going to do if you are not looking for a woman?

Fang Qingchi almost couldn't help laughing, no wonder Gu Shaobai said that this prince was sickly since he was a child, he was raised in a boudoir like a woman, he had never been in the world, and his mind was pure like a piece of white paper.

Over the past half a year or so, I can see that he has a calm mind and is not arrogant. After staying in this small place for several months, he is peaceful and shows no signs of impatience. Looking at it now, these are really peeps!

His true innocence and clarity can only be seen today.

Mu Liunian, can you be a little more tactful, don't be as straight as a stick!

"What do you think!"

Mu Liunian was so nervous that he almost suffocated. This rhetorical question seemed to confirm the guess in his heart. Unknowingly, an indescribable sadness surged in his chest. He put his hands under the table, and his fingers were twisted together until his joints ached. , said just now, "If I'm looking for a woman, I'm not worried... I'm just worried that you're going to do something dangerous. If you don't come back someday, I don't even know where to find you... ..."

Speaking of this, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, he quickly raised his eyes, and added, "No...I'm not cursing you, you're good at martial arts, so you're fine...I am, I am..."

His heart hurts, it really hurts!

Fang Qingchi stood up suddenly, and approached under Mu Liunian's frozen gaze, with a smile on his expressionless face, for the first time, he held his clenched fingers for the first time, and lifted him from his seat. The chair was pulled up, "Fool, without you, what woman should I go out to find?"

Mu Liunian opened his eyes wide, his pupils were full of disbelief, the feeling of being folded in his palms, both real and in a trance, the dazzling morning light shot from Fang Qingchi's handsome and tall back, which made Mu Liunian feel a little kicked. The illusion of stepping into a dream.

"On the official road that day, I recognized you from a group of prisoners at a glance. Although you were chained and looked like a mess, you were so dirty that you could hardly see your original appearance, but your eyes were very beautiful, um... …Like the snow lotus blooming in Tianshan Mountain, peaceful and pure. I was thinking at the time, I want to protect this person forever..."

He gently hugged him into his arms, and rubbed his thin eyelids with his thumbs, "I can tell that you like me, but I'm very dull and not good at words... It's my fault that you misunderstood me so far... ..."

Mu Liunian couldn't do anything other than hug him tightly, close his eyes and enjoy his hug and the beauty of his wish fulfilled. He closed his eyes and leaned against his chest, listening to the throbbing heartbeat, feeling that the heat on his face could be cooked. egg.

I heard him continue to say, "I went out in the middle of the night to do something for my brother, so don't worry."

"En", Mu Liunian responded as thinly as a gnat, feeling really good.

But he was not without worry, "But, I am wanted by the court, and I might implicate you..."

Fang Qingchi kissed his smooth and soft long hair lightly, and asked back, "You think I'm afraid of being implicated!"

Of course, he couldn't tell Mu Liunian that he had accepted an order from "Moyi Pavilion" to do tasks these days.

A long time ago, he made up his mind that when he found the murderer and avenged his family, he would take Mu Liunian away and go to a place where no one knew him, changing his name and starting over.

Therefore, he needed a sum of money, a sum of money that would allow the two of them to spend the rest of their lives in peace no matter where they lived.

So, he found Ji Jianchen.

"Moyilou" never lacked business, he picked a mission to assassinate a corrupt official, stepped on the spot and tracked, spent several nights, until last night he was done, and the corrupt official was killed in the room.

He can do these things by himself. As for Mu Liunian, such a pure person, let him make white paper, why bother with ink stains!

Therefore, getting involved or something is pure nonsense!

"Master Gu is here, have you eaten yet?" A reborn voice sounded in the courtyard.

Gu Shaobai opened the door curtain and said, "No, my father..."

Seeing the two people embracing each other suddenly, Gu Shaobai was stunned for a moment, then retracted the foot that stepped in, and smiled awkwardly, "I'm going to eat in the kitchen, don't bother me..."

Mu Liunian blushed even more, and slipped out of Fang Qingchi's embrace, not showing an overly shy expression, and beckoned, "Come in!"

Gu Shaobai just sat down on the chair, looked at the two people with flushed faces with a smile on his face, and waited for Rebirth to set the table and chopsticks and retreated, then he asked Fang Qingchi leisurely, "Qingchi, this hot potato can finally be thrown to you ,Is it?"

Mu Liunian filled a bowl of porridge and placed it in front of Gu Shaobai with a "boom", "What are you talking about!"

Gu Shaobai didn't look at him, but only looked at Fang Qingchi, and seeing Fang Qingchi swallowing the porridge unhurriedly, he said slowly, "Didn't you throw it to me a long time ago?"

Gu Shaobai laughed, stretched out a white palm, palm up in front of him, "Bring it!"

Fang Qingchi wondered, "What?"

Gu Shaobai said, "In order to save Fleeting Years, my young master owed Ji Jianchen a lot of money, and I rented this small courtyard where the golden house is hidden away. Every day I pay for an old mountain ginseng. I am almost bankrupt. Since Now that everyone belongs to you, why don't you return the principal to me!"

Fang Qingchi was angry, and Mu Liunian rolled his eyes.

Gu Shaobai also felt that he seemed to have offended everyone, so he withdrew his hand embarrassingly, and smiled, "If you don't pay it back, don't pay it back. Why are you staring at me?"

After thinking about it for a while, he still said to Qingchi, "At least, Ji Jianchen's blame must be yours, otherwise, he will force the young master to call 'brother' all day long. Seeing him gives me goosebumps."

"I agree to this," Fang Qingchi finally said something that was quite pleasant.

"Who gets goosebumps when they see me?" Someone outside the door shouted.

Gu Shaobai's heart twisted, he really couldn't tell right from wrong behind his back.

There was a blur in front of my eyes, and in the blink of an eye, Ji Jianchen's beautiful Danfeng eyes were only half an inch away from his eyes.

Gu Shaobai leaned back, getting a little further away from him, remembering that he was now debt-free and light-hearted, he couldn't help but become confident in his conversation, "Just talk about you, you are so beautiful that you don't look like a human being, let my young master Just looking at it gives me goosebumps."

Ji Jianchen moved the chair under his buttocks to his side, getting closer to him, and hooked his chin with his fingers habitually, "It's impolite, I won't even call my brother!"

Gu Shaobai turned his head to avoid his fingers, picked up the bowl and sipped the porridge, "Let Qingchi call, the debt has changed hands."

Ji Jianchen looked at Fang Qingchi puzzled, Fang Qingchi nodded, his serious look made Ji Jianchen wish he could slap him twice.

After the meal, Ji Jianchen and Fang Qingchi went out to do errands together, while Gu Shaobai stayed to listen to Mu Liunian playing the piano. In fact, Mu Liunian is also excellent in all aspects of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but Prince Yu held him in the palm of his hand and held him in his mouth since he was a child. Here, it is really raised in a deep boudoir that no one knows!

"Shaobai", Gu Shaobai raised his head when he heard the words, only to realize that Mu Liunian had already finished playing the piano, and he fell into deep thought without knowing it.

He smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry, fleeting time, I was distracted."

Mu Liunian walked around the piano stand and sat beside him, "Shaobai, do you have something on your mind?"

Gu Shaobai lowered his head and did not answer.

"Is it related to Prince Yi?" Mu Liunian asked inquiringly.

Gu Shaobai raised his eyes and looked at him.

"A few days ago, Ming Yue came to deliver things. I heard from him that you came back from Mobei with Prince Yi. The journey will take at least a month. Did he make things difficult for you?"

Gu Shaobai shook his head. He realized that even Mu Liunian couldn't make him confide in him. In this world, only Mu Qingfeng knew him well. His past, his present, his resentment, his Helplessness, his last resort... are all related to this person!

Mu Liunian coughed several times in a muffled voice, Gu Shaobai turned his head and asked worriedly, "Is it still coughing so badly recently?"

"It's much better." Mu Liunian took two sips of tea, "Old and chronic diseases, sometimes good and sometimes bad."

Gu Shaobai thought to himself, this is still an old disease left by him being poisoned when he was ten years old, and it has not been cured for many years. Prince Yu has invited countless famous doctors, but in the end he couldn't find a solution. If this continues, Mu Liunian may not be able to longevity.

Mu Liunian saw what he was thinking, patted his arm, and comforted him, "Shaobai, it's nothing, you saved me and let me know Fang Qingchi, it's already a great favor to me, as for the rest, it's up to you." Sure, I won't force you."

To meet a friend like you, to meet a lover like Fang Qingchi, what is there to be dissatisfied with!

It was night, and a stage was set up in the "Gong Lefang", and various operas in the southeast, northwest, and north were staged in turn.

The singing voice of "Yi Yi Ya Ya" spread far to the east corner gate of the inner court of the imperial palace, and it sounded vague and unreal.

In the shadow cast by a tall and thick sweet-scented osmanthus tree, stood a black figure dressed in a navy blue eunuch's uniform. It was the "Bao inquiring" Eunuch Lin in the palace. He closed his eyes, leaned against the tree trunk to rest, and waited. people.

A figure quickly passed through the corridor and walked up to the osmanthus tree. Eunuch Lin saw clearly that it was Zhou Ping through the dim moonlight. Then he emerged from the shadow of the tree and handed him a scroll.

Zhou Ping took the paper roll with one hand and stuffed him with a purse with the other.

Eunuch Lin weighed it in the palm of his hand, and said with a flattering smile, "Boss Zhou is really generous."

Zhou Ping also laughed in a low voice, "Eunuch Lin is an old man in the palace, so maybe he will have to trouble you in the future."

Eunuch Lin said, "It's easy to say, the Xian family takes money to do things, and I have to thank Mr. Zhou for taking care of him."

After a short chat, the two walked away.

Zhou Ping returned to the "Gong Lefang", and "The Peony Pavilion" was being sung on the stage. He walked behind Mu Qingfeng and stood still with his head down, met his gaze, and nodded imperceptibly.

Mu Qingfeng turned his eyes back to the stage again, and listened intently to the soft, long-lasting singing of the clouds, "It turns out that there are so many purples and reds blooming everywhere, but they are all ruined like this. The beauty of the day is so beautiful, but who can enjoy the pleasure?" ..."

The woman on the stage was full of misery, as if she was planning to frame Gu Shaobai. The old shadow of the night in "Deruiju" reappeared, and the time going around, seemed to be discussed, reminding him how much he had done. How absurd and arbitrary, if it were he who experienced all this, he would not forgive, nor would he give his heart to such a merciless executioner again!

The author has something to say:

After suffering for too long, let Liu Nian and Xiao Fang sweeten it, I suddenly discovered that the names of people in the text are all watery, what is the matter?
