After the prosperous Tang Dynasty

Du Erlang glanced around, but he didn't see Li Tan, so he knew what was going on, and simply followed, and at the same time told Xiao Heng in a low voice that he had just seen Xiao Yansui and Li Tan talking together.

With Du Erlang around, Zhao Junzhuo would inevitably follow him--no way, he is still a newcomer in Chang'an City after all, he doesn't have many friends, and he knows and has a good relationship. At present, there is only Du Erlang, because it is an imperial examination after all. The friendship that can help him answer the papers in the examination room...

Xiao Heng, who was striding forward, glanced at the two people behind him, and frowned slightly, as if he was still a bit in deep thought. However, Du Erlang and Zhao Junzhuo showed sincerity on their faces. , In the end, Xiao Heng didn't say anything, and he acquiesced in the fact that the two of them went together.

With Xiao Heng's acquiescence, Du Erlang took the initiative a little bit, took two steps forward, pointed in a direction and said: "I just saw here that Xiao Liuniang was sitting and resting alone."

Xiao Heng glanced at him slightly. Although he didn't say a word, there was something subtle in his smiling eyes. He took his sister to find a secluded place that she might like, how could he not know?

Unexpectedly, Du Erlang's next sentence was: "As for the young man from the Eastern Palace—well, he came from here."

Xiao Heng: "..." Although he didn't know this, Du Erlang is still very annoying!

However, after the three of them walked in, they suddenly found that Xiao Yansui and Li Tan were not here.

Unexpectedly, the three who came here by themselves turned out to be in vain. They couldn't help but looked at each other, and the scene was silent and awkward for a moment.

"Maybe you are walking around in the apricot garden!" Zhao Junzhuo glanced at the expressions of Xiao Heng and Du Erlang, and comforted him in a timely voice.

Xiao Heng walked up and took a closer look instinctively. There were traces drawn casually with branches on the ground, which were obviously Xiao Yansui's handwriting.

--When she is distracted and thinking about problems, she seems to like random symbols that don't make sense. She has seen them many times since she was a child. Xiao Heng even memorized the fixed patterns she likes. When he got up, Xiao Heng never thought that his younger sister would have such a long-term affection for the symbols that were smeared casually.

Du Erlang didn't know what Xiao Heng was thinking at the moment, but out of instinct, he followed Zhao Junzhuo's words with a smile and said: "The apricot blossoms in the Xingyuan Garden are blooming just right, so it's good to walk around."

"Well," Xiao Heng responded casually, but continued to look into the depths of Xing Huayuan, hoping to see Xiao Yansui's figure.

However, at this moment, Zhao Junzhuo's gaze inadvertently landed on the mathematical formula sketched on the ground with branches, but his eyes froze instantly.

In an instant, his mind was greatly shocked, as if the blood in his whole body was about to stop flowing, and the momentary trance even made Zhao Junzhuo feel a kind of dazed trance that he didn't know what day and night it was.

His eyes stared straight at the strange yet familiar symbols on the ground, and only these strange numbers and symbols that should not have appeared in this era were left in his mind, surrounded by the rustling apricot blossoms. The sound of blowing down and the whisper of the wind around the treetops seemed to be completely annihilated at that moment.

On weekdays, Xiao Yansui always writes a few formulas casually, or does two high-level math problems casually, after calming down, and then directly destroys those things, which is how Xiao Heng watched her grow up. , The relationship between the two of them is good, that's why Xiao Heng encountered these many times at Xiao Yansui's place.In addition, no matter whether it was Du Erlang or Li Tan, they both came suddenly, and Xiao Yansui was also distracted for a while, so she didn't deliberately cross out what she wrote with a branch. However, before leaving, she Still inadvertently stepped on the middle position.

--It's just that both Xiao Heng and Zhao Junzhuo are too impressed with these "ghost painting symbols" that only Xiao Yansui can make, which ruined most of the formula, but the symbols at the corners , it is enough for them to clearly identify it...

After a long absence, seeing these "ghost painting symbols" that made him feel complicated and familiar again made Zhao Junzhuo's brain almost unable to think at all. Different, when you look at it at first glance, it seems that she is surging inside like a dancing flame...

--If it is because Xiao Heng went around Xiao Yansui's yard from time to time when he was at home, and then naturally discovered the "ghost symbols" left by his sister unconsciously when he was thinking, then, for Zhao Junzhuo In other words, before the fire that burned almost everything in Zhao's house, the limited number of "ghost painting symbols" that she inadvertently left behind have already been deeply engraved in his mind, but they have always been unsatisfactory. , but still will never be forgotten.

In fact, those few unfamiliar handwritings were also the most direct reason why Zhao Junzhuo knew early on that she and his real sister, Concubine Zhao, were not the same person...

I don't know how long it has passed, but Zhao Junzhuo's eyes still fell on the handwriting and symbols left by Xiao Yansui on the ground. It was still when Du Erlang was talking to him, but he couldn't get an answer for a long time, so he casually patted him on the shoulder , Zhao Junzhuocai seemed to wake up from a dream.

The silence in the ears and the blankness in his mind faded away in an instant, and with the voices of Du Erlang and Xiao Heng coming from beside him, Zhao Junzhuo's eardrums twitched gently, and finally made a little bit of response: "I just said What?"

"Can you be distracted while standing?" Du Erlang blinked in surprise, and looked at his friend with a smile.

Only then did Zhao Junzhuo raise the corners of his mouth, smiled helplessly, and said casually: "In the courtyard of my house, there is a peach blossom tree. When the spring breeze blows, the pink and white petals fall down one after another, just like the rain of flowers in the apricot garden. It’s quite the same thing, just now I accidentally lost my mind and remembered the things at home.”

--Under the peach blossom tree with soft petals and gorgeous blossoms, there are scattered traces of "her" carefully sorted out by Zhao Junzhuo.

He didn't know "her"'s name, nor where she came from, even if he wanted to set up an inscription for her, he couldn't do it.

However, due to the common understanding of life and death in this era, people in the Tang Dynasty still paid attention to burying themselves in the soil. The education Zhao Junzhuo received since childhood, subconsciously, naturally formed this kind of inseparable incense inheritance. , The consensus of the era of enshrining after death.

What Zhao Junzhuo said to Du Erlang just now was true--seeing those ghostly painted symbols just now, and the apricot blossoms blowing down the branches, really made him return to the peach blossom tree at home in a daze.

Many years ago, he had thought that perhaps only he could remember that in this world, behind Concubine Zhao, there was another "she" who existed for a short time...

After calming down for a while, Zhao Junzhuo almost forced himself to calm down, and then he heard Du Erlang ask Xiao Heng: "The scenery in this apricot garden is just right, Liu Niang may have gone to play elsewhere, what should we do next? Go ahead and find her?"

However, to Zhao Junzhuo's surprise, Xiao Heng did not accept Du Erlang's opinion, but simply shook his head, "No need, Liu Niang likes to be alone, maybe she is hiding somewhere right now." Quiet, we are going to find her this way, maybe we will have to send someone from Tanhuayan to find the three of us later, let's go back first!"

Although at the moment Li Linfu is fighting fiercely with Prince Li Heng, Huangfu Weiming, Wei Jian and others, Xiao Heng is naturally not happy to see Xiao Yansui and Li Tanguo, who is also from the Eastern Palace, getting close .

However, considering that Li Tan's birth mother died early at a young age, coupled with the humbleness of his mother's family, he basically disappeared. In the East Palace, except for his elder brother Li Chu who was thinking about him a little bit, no one cared about him at all. The transparent person is pitiful, so he feels that anyway, Donggong and Xiao Yansui have a good relationship, and there is only such a person who can't provoke the slightest disturbance. I will choose to attack him. It is rare for my sister to have a good friend, so let her go. After all, Li Tan can't affect the overall situation at all. Now that he is young, to put it bluntly, Li Linfu is too lazy to pay attention to him...

After Xiao Heng said that, Du Erlang naturally nodded in response, except for Zhao Junzhuo who was full of thoughts with his eyes slightly lowered to cover up all kinds of thoughts.

·

At this time, Xiao Yansui and Li Tanzheng were walking leisurely together in this apricot garden of bright flowers and rain, wandering around the remote and quiet place with beautiful scenery.

She didn't know that the mathematical formula she just wrote on the ground with a tree branch, and finally stepped on her foot with her shoes on, would happen to fall into the eyes of Xiao Heng and Zhao Junzhuo, let alone expect that in Chang'an City I happened to meet Zhao Junzhuo twice, and now he is already a handsome young man, gentle as jade, Zhao Junzhuo, who was the thin and frail child of the Zhao family back then, who was the twin brother of Concubine Zhao.

After all, more than ten years have passed since the Zhao family's past. Although Xiao Yansui's memory is good, the events that happened in the Zhao mansion within a few days are more like a dream to her.

Xiao Yansui, who just crossed over, was still in a daze after forcibly calming down. If it wasn't for the fact that Concubine Zhao's situation in the Zhao family was too critical at that time, Xiao Yansui would probably slowly accept the reality after a while .However, Mrs. Liu was seriously ill, and the back house was ruled by concubines, without mother's protection, and the twin siblings were bullied terribly. At that time, Concubine Zhao was sick and weak, and Xiao Yansui was in a bad state when she woke up. So, Trapped in this situation, Xiao Yansui's coping methods can be called decisive, coupled with the distance between life and death, for Xiao Yansui, all these have a sense of unreality that he does not want to recall...
