It's not good to be a widow [Comprehensive]

If it wasn't after the Mid-Autumn Festival, her daughter would come back from Xiuyu Valley, and Lu Jinglu even wanted to play with Ye Gucheng outside for another half a year.

It's not that going out is definitely better than staying in Nanhai, but after isolating most of the people who know them both, life is really leisurely and happy.

They went to Kunlun Mountain at the end of summer. The mountains are lush and snow-capped. Looking down from the peak, you can see magnificent scenery that cannot be seen on the island.

When people are in it, with the sea of ​​clouds behind them and the cliffs in front of them, it is really easy to feel that they are insignificant compared with the sky and the earth.

But the strange thing is, just because Ye Gucheng is by his side, Lu Jinglu has never been afraid.

On the way back, when she recalled this wonderful scene, she was still filled with emotion.

Seeing her like this, Ye Gucheng said, "If you like it, you can come out once a year from now on."

"Forget it then." She knew how many things he was busy with on weekdays, so she hurriedly stopped the proposal.

"Why?" He was puzzled.

Lu Jinglu knew that if she spoke out about her concerns, he would definitely say that it was nothing.

But it was also because she knew his heart that she didn't want to crazily compress his time to do business because of this matter.Thinking of this, she couldn't help squinting her eyes, and found another excuse: "Good times don't come often, and it's not so rare to see them every year."

After all, Ye Gucheng didn't have time to react, and she continued: "Calculate the time, when we return to the South China Sea, Susu should come back, right?"

Ye Gucheng's attention was indeed diverted, he thought for a moment, nodded and said: "That's right."

"Children grow up fast. When she comes back this time, those clothes should be too small." Lu Jinglu said, suddenly regretting, "Before we come out, I should ask the mansion to make some new clothes for her. of."

Ye Gucheng said it's okay, they can send the letter back first and let the housekeeper order someone to prepare it.

Lu Jinglu thought about it, and felt that this was the only way to go.

But on the way afterwards, they still sped up a little bit, no longer as leisurely as when they went out, and finally managed to return home before their daughter.

A few years ago, after the Gold Cave and Unnamed Island were pulled out, the South China Sea was much more peaceful than before.Therefore, the two of them have been away from home for half a year, and the accumulated affairs are not particularly large.

Lu Jinglu couldn't bear Ye Gucheng to go up and down by himself, so after he came back, he also went to help.

In the days before their daughter's return, the two met the leaders of dozens of caravans, large and small, as well as the leaders of some small sects.

After seeing everything that should be seen, the people Ye Gucheng sent to pick up his daughter finally came back in a mighty way.

To Lu Jinglu's surprise, Yaoyue came with her, saying that she was worried, but there were Lianxing and Bai Feifei guarding Yihua Palace anyway, so nothing serious would happen.

Lu Jinglu was very moved: "The Grand Palace Master has a heart."

"By the way, Susu...she didn't cause you any trouble in Yihua Palace, did she?" Thinking of her daughter's usual behavior, Lu Jinglu was really worried.

Yaoyue shook her head: "No, she is very good."

As soon as the words fell, Chlorophyll, who was left out in the cold, also repeated with a puffy face: "I'm very good!"

Lu Jinglu let out a chuckle and said, "Okay, okay, I know you're good."

Ye Gucheng bent down at the right time to pick up the little girl, then turned to Yaoyue, and said, "Since the Palace Master is here, why not stay for a while longer."

In the past few years, Yaoyue has seen him a little more pleasingly than before, and her attitude has softened a lot. Hearing this, she only pondered for a moment before nodding: "I originally planned to do so."

At this time, Lu Jinglu was very happy to hear this, after all, Xiuyu Valley and the South China Sea were far apart, and it was not easy for them to meet each other.

But after dinner that night, when Yaoyue was told that she was going to find her at the old time tomorrow morning, she realized what else was included in Yaoyue's "planned to do so"—to examine her sword skills.

Lu Jinglu has been playing wildly outside for the past six months, Duijian was indeed not diligent when he was at home, he was very nervous immediately, and kept talking about it after returning to his room at night.

"What should I do?" She asked Ye Gucheng, "The Grand Palace Master will definitely be angry when he sees that I haven't made any progress."

"Well... you can say it's all my fault." Ye Gucheng didn't mind helping her bear the blame.

Lu Jinglu: "..."

"Okay, don't worry too much." He said again, "Actually, I don't think you haven't improved."

For any topic related to swords, Ye Gucheng disdains to lie, so this is indeed his truth.

Lu Jinglu started late and had a hard time learning earlier, but over the past few years, she has already achieved the ultimate in her skillful moves.

On this basis, if she still wants to improve, it depends purely on her understanding of the sword, but this is where she has never been weaker than others. He has discovered this since before formally learning the sword.

"Don't worry about going tomorrow." He said, "Just draw the sword and don't think about anything else."

"...Okay." She finally felt relieved.

After a night of sweet dreams, Lu Jinglu went to find Yaoyue on time.

In the past few years, Yaoyue lived in the same courtyard every time she came to live in the same courtyard. She walked along the stone path through the garden corridor, and before she reached the courtyard gate, she heard rustling sounds from there.

It should be that Yaoyue is already practicing sword, she thought so, took three steps and made two steps, raised her hand and knocked on the courtyard door twice, and then went in directly.

As a result, as soon as she entered, a sword aura rushed towards her face, forcing her to tremble, and she instinctively drew the sword.

This was not unheard of in their past sparring sessions, so after a short period of stupefaction passed, Lu Jinglu followed Ye Gucheng's advice last night - don't think about anything, just draw the sword.

I saw the soft sword popping out, resisting the sword edge of Bixue Zhaodanqing, bent down again, and fell back, narrowly avoiding the sword.

And the next sword came in an instant, and she didn't have time to react at all.

Lu Jinglu didn't even have an empty stomach to slander why the Grand Palace Mistress was so fierce when she came up today. At this moment, she is fully focused on this test that is much more severe than before.

Several times, the sword edge completely wiped her face, and it was only a hair's breadth away from disfiguring her, but she had no time to complain or accuse this, so she could only try her best to dismantle Yaoyue's body. moves.

After ten strokes, Yaoyue suddenly slowed down for some reason, leaving more room for her to breathe.

But she still didn't dare to relax, she put all her mind on the sword, after all the difference in martial arts between the two was there, the initiative was always in Yaoyue's hands.

Another five moves, Yaoyue's movements are getting slower and slower.

Lu Jinglu was puzzled, and finally couldn't help but look at Yaoyue.

What came into view was an indifferent face with furrowed brows, just like when she came in, far more serious than before.

At the same time, Yao Yue also spoke.

"Who are you?" Yaoyue actually asked, "Why did you use the sword technique I created?"

"Ah?!" Lu Jinglu almost thought that there was something wrong with her ears, "Grand Palace Master... what did you say?"

"I'm asking who you are." This Yaoyue's voice was indifferent and his tone was cold. Compared with yesterday afternoon, there were almost two people.

Lu Jinglu: "..."

No way, the husband's amnesia is finally over, now give her a girlfriend who has amnesia?

Yaoyue couldn't wait for her answer, her brows frowned deeper, and when she spoke again, her voice was colder than before: "Who the hell are you? Where are you? Why am I here?"

Lu Jinglu thought to herself that this mother had lost her memory a lot. This knowledge made her dare not withdraw her sword immediately, and she only dared to test in a low voice: "Well, Grand Palace Mistress, do you remember who you are?"

Hearing this, Yaoyue suddenly had an expression like "What the hell is this person talking about?" and said, "I don't even know who I am!"

Lu Jinglu: "...uh."

"Don't hesitate!" Yaoyue said.

"I'm not... Oh forget it, I am." Lu Jinglu felt tired, "Although I don't know why you lost your memory, we have known each other for many years, and this is Feixian Island in the South China Sea."

"Feixian Island?" Yaoyue repeated the name of the place expressionlessly, and then said in a cold tone, "I've never heard of this place! Don't try to lie to me!"

Lu Jinglu: "???" How could I deceive you!

She took a deep breath and said: "If the Grand Mistress doesn't believe it, you can go out of Baiyun City and take a look. The seas around you will never lie to you. This is really the South China Sea."

Yaoyue didn't care about this sentence, but cared about another one, saying: "You just said that we have known each other for many years? Are you my friend?"

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Lu Jinglu to answer, she denied it herself: "This is absolutely impossible."

Lu Jinglu looked at Jianfeng who was close at hand, and really mustered up the courage to continue explaining.

She succinctly summed up a series of events that she took the token of Tianshan Child Elder to go to Xiuyu Valley, and later gave birth to a daughter and learned martial arts there.

Every time Yaoyue listened to a sentence, her face became more ugly, obviously she didn't want to believe her words.

Just as she was about to finish speaking, there was another sound of footsteps outside the courtyard door.

Lu Jinglu recognized that this was one of Ye Gucheng's most trusted sword servants, and he calmed down a bit, and said directly, "What's the matter?"

The sword attendant also obediently did not come in, and replied directly outside the courtyard: "Mrs. Yan Nantian is here. The city lord said that he will hold a banquet in the water pavilion at noon. He ordered me to inform you and Palace Master Yaoyue."

Before he finished speaking, Yaoyue, holding a sword, suddenly strode towards the gate of the courtyard, pushed open the gate with a murderous look, and said sharply: "Yan Nantian?!"

The Sword Attendant was not frightened, he just nodded for a moment and said, "Yes, Hero Yan said that he was passing through the South China Sea, and he heard that our city lord and wife had returned from a break, so he came over to say hello."

Yaoyue: "Where is he now?"

Sword Attendant: "Should it be by the Sword Washing Pool?"

Yan Nantian and Ye Gucheng are both masters of swordsmanship, it is rare to meet each other, and it is necessary to learn from each other. They have come here in this way for the past few years, and everyone in the City Lord's Mansion knows it.

Listening to their conversation, Lu Jinglu always felt something was wrong.

The next moment, Yaoyue asked the sword servant to lead the way, and she finally understood——

Although Yaoyue and Yan Nantian were at odds with each other, they didn't have any grudges!Compared to Yan Nantian, Yaoyue even looked at Ye Gucheng a little less pleasing to the eye!How could it be possible to forget her and Feixiandao, but remember Yan Nantian who he met later, and still act like he has an old grudge with him for eight lifetimes? !

"Wait!" In the blink of an eye, Lu Jinglu reacted, and quickly stepped forward to confirm, "Grand Palace Master, do you have any grudges with Yan Nantian?"

Yaoyue didn't answer, but the awe-inspiring look already explained the answer.

Lu Jinglu: "..."

So this is not amnesia, this is probably the invitation to the moon from the original work.

……

A quarter of an hour later, the two arrived at the Sword Washing Pool one after the other.

For her own safety, and also for the sake of the city lord's mansion being demolished by Yaoyue from the original book, Lu Jinglu bit the bullet and revealed her speculation on the road.

At first, when Yaoyue heard "I'm afraid this is not the world you lived in before", she felt that she was talking nonsense.

But as she told the distribution of each palace in Yihua Palace, including the Zangshu Pavilion and the dungeon verbatim, Yaoyue could only believe that she had really been to Yihua Palace in Xiuyu Valley, and she was very close to "myself". Intimacy, otherwise it would be impossible to know so much.

"So 'I' taught you your sword skills?" Yaoyue asked.

"Yes, yes." Lu Jinglu nodded.

"You are better at learning swords than my sister." Yaoyue said, "But you learned it too late."

"It's too late." Lu Jinglu obediently admitted, "If it weren't for the guidance of the Grand Palace Master, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to get on the stage now."

Yaoyue: "That's not me."

Lu Jinglu: "..." You said it first, I just followed your words!

All in all, although it sounds fantastic and unbelievable, Yaoyue still confirmed that what Lu Jinglu said was true with her extraordinary judgment.

Everything else is fine, except when it comes to the relationship between 'her' Yaoyue and Yan Nantian in this world, it seems difficult for her to accept it.

Fortunately, at this time, they also came to the place where Ye Gucheng and Yan Nantian were exchanging ideas.

Lu Jinglu didn't have to worry about Yaoyue who was dissatisfied with the original work and would give him a few sword strikes, and he relaxed a lot.

She walked quickly towards Ye Gucheng who was already withdrawing her sword, and greeted Yan Nantian by the way: "Hero Yan."

Yan Nantian was as big as always, and he smiled silly when he saw everyone: "Mrs. Ye, Palace Master Moon."

As soon as the title Moon Palace Master came out, Yaoyue's expression became You Qi couldn't explain it, as if he had seen a ghost.

Lu Jinglu saw it, and always felt that she was going to say "don't call me like that" in the next moment.

Because Yaoyue didn't answer for a long time, Yan Nantian let out a surprise and said, "Could it be that Palace Master Yue doesn't remember me anymore?"

Yueyue: "..."

Lu Jinglu really wanted to remind Yan Nantian that although they looked exactly the same, this Moon Palace Master in front of you was not the one you knew, but before he could organize his words, Yaoyue spoke out first.

Yaoyue said: "You are Yan Nantian."

"That's right." Yan Nantian didn't think there was anything wrong with this, scratching his head while continuing to say stupidly, "We met once in Luzhou the year before last."

As soon as these words came out, Lu Jinglu was startled: "Huh?"

You must know that Yaoyue seldom goes out, unlike Lianxing, she will leave Xiuyu Valley for a walk when she is bored.

Yan Nantian didn't think much about it at all, and immediately explained: "In the first month of the year before last, when I was passing through Luzhou, I ran into Palace Master Moon who brought Miss Bai's son out to play. She wanted to buy candied haws for Miss Bai's son, but there were too many people. It's..."

Lu Jinglu was stunned for a while, looking at Yaoyue's face, she seemed to be a little more curious in the indescribable words, and finally couldn't hold back and asked: "Well, what then?"

Yan Nantian: "Then I bought it for her. I'm a rough person. It's okay to squeeze in."

As he was talking, he felt emotional, saying that the boy was very polite, and he looked good, and he would definitely become a unique swordsman in the future.

Lu Jinglu: "Hmm... and the Grand Palace Master personally gave pointers."

Yan Nantian: "The Moon Palace Master's sword is actually not suitable for him to learn."

As soon as he said this, Lu Jinglu felt that something bad was going to happen.

Sure enough, when Yaoyue heard it, she raised her eyebrows and said, "You look down on my sword?!"

Lu Jinglu: "..." I knew it.

Of course Yan Nantian immediately said no.

"I just think that the Moon Palace Master's swordsmanship is more suitable for Mrs. Ye." He said, "As for Miss Bai's son, his hands and feet are actually more suitable for practicing swords that open and close—"

"—For example, your Divine Sword Art?" Yaoyue said coldly.

Yan Nantian was stunned for a moment, and then he really thought about it seriously, and said: "If he comes to practice the Divine Sword Art, he must be better than blue."

Yaoyue snorted, and although she didn't say anything, "this person is annoying no matter which world he is in" was written all over his face.

Lu Jinglu didn't find the opportunity to tell others about whether this invitation to the moon was not the other, but Ye Gucheng, who watched the whole process, seemed to sense something was wrong, so he tilted his head and asked her softly: "Palace Master Yaoyue is not in a good mood today. ?”

"...Hmm." When I woke up, it was a different world, and my previous enemies were so close that I couldn't do anything (after all, there was Ye Gucheng, who was as good at martial arts as both of them), so I was naturally in a bad mood. .

Ye Gucheng thought for a while, and said: "Then let Susu come here together, she was still talking about it just now."

Lu Jinglu: "Are you talking about looking for the Grand Palace Master!?"

Ye Gucheng said yes.

Lu Jinglu: "...no more."

After finishing speaking, she was about to start explaining the whole story to Ye Gucheng when the back door of the study on the other side was opened with a creak.

The four people looked at the sound at the same time, and saw that Chlorophyll was holding a wooden sword and running towards this side.

The little girl is not tall, but after gaining a little foundation of internal strength, she walks more steadily than her peers, and she is full of energy when she speaks. She raised her head and greeted her happily once she was only halfway through the run.

"Father, mother! Aunt Yue, Uncle Yan!" No one was left behind.

Yan Nantian hadn't seen this girl for a while, and seeing her running out of the study, she was quite pleasantly surprised: "Has Susu grown so tall?"

"Oh yes, Palace Master Moon came to Nanhai just to send her home, right?" He smiled boldly, as if he was using his laughter to cover up his embarrassment, "At the beginning, I always thought that Palace Master Moon was vicious in his actions and people were also vicious, and he said After a lot of impolite words, I ran into them by chance in Luzhou last time, so I realized that I have misunderstood all this time."

Yueyue: "..."

Yan Nantian sighed, and said: "I forgot to make amends last time, but this time I happened to meet, probably God is reminding me."

After finishing speaking, he actually turned sideways to Yaoyue, bowed his hands solemnly, and put on a posture of apologizing.

Yaoyue didn't expect that he would come out suddenly, and she was also stunned for a moment.

When the scene was extremely weird, Chlorophyll who ran over directly bypassed his parents, hugged Yaoyue's sleeves, and said: "Aunt Yue, please say something, if you don't say something, Uncle Yan will be in trouble. "

Yaoyue once again: "..."

Lu Jinglu put herself in Yaoyue's shoes and imagined it, and couldn't help being speechless for Yaoyue.

She felt that if she was Yaoyue, she probably just wanted to draw her sword and chop Yan Nantian in front of her at this moment, to see what kind of monster he was.

In order to avoid such a tragedy from happening, she had no choice but to stand up and smooth things over, saying: "The Grand Palace Mistress never cares about other people's opinions, and Hero Yan doesn't have to care so much."

"That's right." Yan Nantian was straight-hearted, "Palace Master Moon never explained anything to a vulgar person like me back then, so naturally it doesn't make sense for me to apologize or not."

"No." In the silence, Chlorophyll said softly, "Aunt Yue admires Uncle Yan very much. She has praised Uncle Yan's sword many times with brother Afei and me."

"Isn't that right, Aunt Yue?" After the little girl finished speaking, she looked up at Yaoyue, assuming the usual posture of begging for praise.

Lu Jinglu, who knew the truth, almost fainted, thinking that you really dare to say anything.

Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Yaoyue's expression subtly improved, and she asked, "Really? How did I tell you?"

"Oh, because I said that Daddy is the most powerful swordsman in the world." Ye Chlorosu said, "Aunt Yue said that it depends on Uncle Yan's face whether he is the most powerful or not."

Lu Jinglu: "..." This is indeed what the Yaoyue Club I know said.

Yan Nantian was very modest, squinting his eyes and said: "Exaggerated, exaggerated, Lord Ye's sword is like a flying fairy, so you don't need to look at my face."

Yaoyue glanced at him, puzzled: "Are you happy?"

Yan Nantian said that he must be happy to be recognized by Palace Master Moon.

He spoke so directly, but blocked all Yaoyue's remaining words.

In the end, Yaoyue turned around, shook her sleeves and left, saying that she was going to be quiet and that no one should bother her.

Chlorophyll wanted to follow, but Lu Jinglu grabbed her and said earnestly, "Don't bother your aunt Yue."

The little girl didn't know why, but Tingniang's tone was serious, so she let out an oh.

"Then I want Daddy to hug—"

Ye Gucheng, the daughter slave, of course immediately agreed to this request.

From then until noon, the family of three stayed together, and Lu Jinglu finally found a chance to tell Ye Gucheng what he had discovered.

Ye Gucheng was shocked at first, but after thinking about Yaoyue's performance, he also believed it, and said that no matter how he thought about it, he felt that it was wrong.

"Then the luncheon?"

"Uh... when the time comes, I'll ask her if she would like to come?" Lu Jinglu felt that this was the only way to do it.

As a result, at noon, before she went to find Yaoyue, Yaoyue took the initiative to come to the water pavilion.

As soon as Yaoyue came in, before she sat down, the first sentence was: "I had a very strange dream, Ah Lu."

Lu Jinglu: "...Are you back?"

"It's back to me." She paused, and then suddenly realized, "Wait, why did you say that? Could it be that when I was dreaming..."

Lu Jinglu observed her expression, and said slowly: "When I went to look for you in the morning, you said that you didn't know me, that you didn't know where Feixian Island was, and... it seemed that you had a deep connection with Lord Yan. hatred……"

Yaoyue was in a daze: "Could it be a dream?"

Yan Nantian was confused when he heard it: "Ah? How could Palace Master Moon have a grudge against me?"

Yaoyue ignored him directly.

……

another world.

In the Yihua Palace of Xiuyu Valley, Yaoyue woke up from the palace where she was practicing, and her first reaction was also that she had a dream.

But if it was a dream, how could what happened in the dream be so real?

She was thinking, and suddenly heard a faint breathing sound outside the palace.

It is her and Lianxing's apprentice, Hua Wuque.

"Master." Hua Wuque called her outside, "Did you really promise to let Wuque go out for a day?"

Yaoyue instinctively wanted to say how it was possible, but when she thought of that "dream" and the little girl in the dream who didn't hesitate to pick up her sleeves and smiled happily, for some reason, her heart softened for a moment.

Maybe when she left for a short time, Yaoyue, who had experienced different experiences, was really so promising?

Thinking of this, she hummed and walked out of the palace.
