Half-dead paulownia

(in Xumi Taoist Temple)

The yard is not big, and the fragrance of peach blossoms comes out, which is refreshing. There is even a small pool formed by flowing mountain water in the yard. It turns out that all the water in the yard in the Taoist temple is drawn from the running water of the mountain stream, no wonder it is so pure Naturally, the peach petals floated all over the pool, and the water was actually warm, it really was the water of a divine spring.A small rockery stood in the center of the pool, and Liu Meng gradually walked around the rockery, approaching the front of the courtyard, and the sound of water fluctuations became louder and louder. Could it be that there is a spring in front?Liu Meng couldn't help speeding up his pace, wanting to find out.

Unexpectedly, what kind of complicated life will be deduced by the fleeting time involved in this curious glance?

As Liu Meng got closer, his curiosity intensified. Finally, when he turned around the rockery to find out, this was the first time Liu Meng panicked in his life, and he stood there in a daze, at a loss for what to do.

What came into view was a woman who was taking a bath, her skin was as beautiful as porcelain, her lips as cherry blossoms, her pretty face was slightly flushed by the steam, her beautiful eyes were tightly closed, and the peach petals adhered wantonly to her skin with the fluctuation of the water flow. "who is it?"

"Yep…"

"Ah!" A scream like a yellow oriole pierced the sky, and I saw colorful silk flying out of the rockery, spinning colorfully and gorgeously, stirring up the peach blossoms in the courtyard and scattering together. In a blink of an eye, the colorful silk has already surrounded After entering the pool, it is about ten feet tall and gorgeous.

Liu Meng was so nervous that he didn't know what to do, he hadn't recovered yet, he was frozen there like a stone statue, after living for so many years, he has been by Prince Anling's side all the time, how could he cope with such things.

Just in an instant, the sound of the colored silk bursting, the shattered flocks and petals intertwined, shining brightly and beautifully.Without thinking about reacting, the sword pointed at Liu Meng's throat, and Liu Meng realized his danger. The woman wrapped in pink satin and just out of the bath was obviously angry and ashamed. Charming, "red apricots planted by the sun against the clouds" enchanting, full of spring eyes, light spring eyebrows, crystal drops of water dripping from the waist-length hair, a slightly shy pretty face gives people a feeling of deja vu .

"You are Meng...Meng'er?" Liu Meng suddenly realized that she was less murderous and indifferent after just getting out of the bath, and more gentle and graceful as a woman.

"Stop talking nonsense, Liu Meng, you're really lecherous."

"Meng'er, everything is a misunderstanding, what a misunderstanding, I was just bored, just strolling around and enjoying the scenery here, but I didn't expect..." At this time, Liu Meng was even more shy than Meng'er.

"Stroll around? What did you appreciate?"

"I just... just started to walk around, and I'm not familiar with the terrain here. I was dizzy, and I saw you...you."

"Shut up, don't make excuses, you're a hooligan." In fact, Meng'er also knew in her heart that it was their first time here, and they were not familiar with the terrain, but this alone could forgive the man who saw her body , "Say, what did you see?"

"Actually, I didn't see it... I saw it clearly." Liu Meng muttered in a low voice.

"What? It means you saw it?" Meng'er widened her eyes wickedly.

"No, I didn't see it."

"Then you want to renege on your debt?"

"Meng'er, it's really my fault this time."

"Is that true seeing? Anyone who sees will die."

"I swear, I swear I never saw it."

"It seems that I still want to renege."

"Then did I see it or didn't I see it?" Liu Meng really didn't know how to answer this time, his little face was flushed, and he couldn't help this guard who had been protecting Prince Anling. Apart from the prince, no one forced him to be like this.

"If word of a guard peeping at someone else's bath gets out, my master will definitely be upset. If he is upset, how can he save Xiao Jinmo? If he can't be saved, what will happen to Anling Yuhao?"

"Don't do this, please." Hearing this, Liu Meng felt cold sweat all over his body.

"Hmph, what should I do then? If I'm not careful, I'll report you!"

"Then I, Liu Meng, owe you a favor. If you need it in the future, you will definitely go through fire and water, and you will die."

"There's no evidence for what you say?"

I saw Liu Meng took out a jade pendant from his bosom. The carved pattern was cumbersome, crystal clear and shining with strange light. One could tell it was not an ordinary thing. "Give it to you, this is the heirloom of my Liu family." Bao, it is the only memory my mother left for me in this world, someday I will return your favor, and you will return it to me."

"This... so precious."

"Accept it, I should also let go of some hatred, keep it by my side, there will always be lingering resentment tormenting me, it's time to let go." Seeing Liu Meng's painful and helpless expression at this time But there was a little loneliness hidden in her heart, which actually made Meng'er feel guilty about herself, how could she have such thoughts?There was nothing wrong with me, I was too kind.

"Okay, okay, accept it, just remember."

"Then I bid farewell."

"Hmph, can't you stay?"

"..."

Liu Meng is really convinced by this eloquent Meng'er. It is clearly about his own reputation, but he is so confident that he still threatens others with it. He is really full of personality. If he doesn't leave quickly, something will happen again.

(Hall of Mental Cultivation in Huanzhao Kingdom)

"Your Majesty, Ling Su is here." Eunuch Li whispered into Lord Huanzhao's ear.

"Quick, let him in quickly." It was an urgent order.

"Everyone go down, Eunuch Li, you go down too, let me get together with him alone."

"According to the order!"

The door of the palace opened slowly, still wearing the blue clothes, the indifference under the deep eyes seemed to be mixed with a little persistence, who knows the waves hidden in the silence?

"Ling Su, you're here."

"Hmm." Simple question, simple answer, but the kind of concerned eyes of King Huanzhao, no one has ever seen, this kind of gentle eyes has never appeared in this handsome man more than 10 years ago. The man's face made so many women in the world sad and lamented. It is rumored among the people that after the death of a man who is jealous of the sky, the heroic and heroic monarch of Huanzhao Kingdom will never smile again, and the world will never smile again. There is one more handsome gentleman who is ruthless and independent.

"Ling Han, you haven't looked like this for a long time."

"Ling Su, tell me, you will never betray me, right? Never!" The helplessness and pain in the words, the stalwart that he usually pretended to collapse completely, it turns out that his fragility is stronger than that of others Violent, vigorous hands covered Long Yan, unable to see the expression clearly, feeling the pain of choking.

"Emperor brother, you are my emperor brother, we are connected by blood, blood is connected, understand? The sea will change, and I will stand by your side." Ling Su walked forward and hugged the fragile man in front of him tightly. bosom.

"Let's put it down, more than 10 years have passed, what about love? What about hate? Are you tired?"

"Ling Su, I hate myself so much. It's all my fault. It's all my fault. How can I be so unsteady? What should I do? What should I do to stop thinking? Tell me, okay? "

"Ling Han, I want you to know that in all the incidents, you are not the only one who is enduring the test and longing. We have no choice."

"Ling Su, you won't betray me, will you?"

"Ling Han, raise your head and look at me with your confident eyes. I want to tell you that no matter what I do, everything is just for you, and there is nothing else."

Love and hatred, right and wrong, no one can let go of the nostalgia of the year, but at the beginning of the moon, it is as bright as jade, and the peerless love is swayed, but it is an eternal fetter.

(Jingluan Garden, Capital of Huanzhao Kingdom)

The river sky is moonlight, spotless, hanging alone in the air.

The room is quiet, as if no one is there, incense is lit in the jade furnace, and the silk is lingering, but the red candle on the sandalwood table is extraordinarily dazzling, it seems to have been burning for a long time, facing the wind, holding the scroll, poetry and books on the moon, the shadow of the candle The man below him didn't feel lonely at all, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, making this majestic man even more picturesquely handsome.

It seems to be recalling the happiest thing in this world. Of course, these subtle changes cannot escape a pair of wise eyes. They quietly walked into the house, warned the servants not to make a sound, and walked to this place without realizing it, as if intoxicated Suddenly, he took the painting away from the man's hand, "Haha, when did the emperor start to be obsessed with women?" Ling Zhuoxi was also taken aback by this sudden attack, and in a panic wanted to snatch Zi The portrait in Ning's hand.

"Sister, don't talk nonsense, return it to me quickly."

"Oh, this is the first time I see Brother Huang being so nervous about a woman? Let me take a closer look, who is this beautiful family?"

"Princess, you... bring it quickly."

"Is it really right? I'm so nervous, she is a natural beauty, she is as gorgeous as a fairy, her eyes are clear but so stubborn, the dazzling red skirt is even more beautiful, If it is not in the world, it is true that the flowers are not enough to imitate its color, and the pistils are not enough to describe its appearance. It is amazing. In the world, there are such beauties? Didn’t the emperor dream of a fairy? Return it to you soon, see you That anxious look!" The handsome face in the speech is not known to be flushed by the candlelight, or the shyness in Zi Ning's words, as gorgeous as the sunset.

"It's so late, why don't you rest?"

"Brother, it's okay, just take a stroll."

"Hehe, I'm still like a child. When I was young, I would come to my brother to complain about any unhappy things. After so many years, don't I understand you?"

"My brother still loves Ning'er and cares about Ning'er."

"Silly girl, you're talking stupid again, tell me, why are you bothered this time?"

"I...your door..."

"Huh? Ning'er, what happened to you today?"

"You... have they proposed marriage?"

"Marriage proposal? Oh...haha!" Looking at the shy little sister who looked like a water lily, she was not at all like the delicate and noble Princess Zining who was envied by the world.

"So that's what happened? It's really embarrassing for Ning'er. It's my brother's fault for a girl to ask us. My brother is stupid. Who are you talking about?" Ling Zhuoxi deliberately teased her sister.

"I hate it, my brother bullied Ning'er, so I won't play with you anymore." The flustered appearance and coquettish tone made Ling Zhuoxi burst into laughter.

"Sister, don't run away, let me tell you, father said that Emperor Anling is willing to make this marriage, and he will come to hire on the eighth day of next month." Ling Zhuoxi said with affirmative tone.
