Qingchuan History

Chapter 240 Come late to listen to the mountain rain
The imperial garden was also extremely quiet.

The two master and servant came down from the Mingguang Terrace, without talking all the way. After entering the imperial garden, they walked slowly along the road closest to the Huizhe Snow Palace.

Ruan Xueyin was wearing her crimson cloak, with the hood covering half of her face; this cloak was put on by Jing Tingge for a few days, and the scent of orange blossom faded, and it was faintly tinged with the fragrance of gardenia.

There are naturally no gardenias in late autumn, this is the smell of Jing Tingge.

She never changed her taste.Ruan Xueyin thought silently.

She raised her eyes to look at the garden in the night. The layout is exquisite, but the colors are monotonous in autumn, but the air is cold and comfortable.Occasionally, some palace people held the lamps and walked quickly with their hands tucked in, which added a bit of fireworks to this vast and empty place.

In the sky and on earth, apart from those remote mountains, high forests, deserts and lonely seas, the imperial palace is indeed the least smokey place.

Fireworks are blocked in a small area of ​​Yushansi's world, everyone looks up at the flowers and moon in the mirror, and faces the abyss at their feet.

At the end of this deep silence and occasional smoke and fire, at the end of the emptiness where the vast night can be seen in the eyes, a person came from afar.

It's two people.

Ruan Xueyin didn't see Heng'er walking behind her.

"Mrs. Yu."

"Mrs. Pei."

Ruan Xueyin took off the hood.

"I heard that Mrs. Pei and Mr. Jing said goodbye on the Mingguang Terrace, but you just came from there?" Ji Wanling asked with a smile when she saw that the other party was wearing a cloak.

"Exactly." Ruan Xueyin replied with a smile.

Ji Wanling nodded: "I also just went to Wanlan Palace to deliver some soup. Your Majesty is busy, so I can't stay longer. When I came out, I felt that the air was refreshing, so I walked around the imperial garden." She smiled again, "No Together for a while?"

The bracelet, which was a hundred times brighter than the jacket and skirt, shone on her left wrist.

Jade will only become brighter and brighter if it is worn on the body.Ruan Xueyin thought silently.The brilliance of this bracelet is much better than when Gu Xinglang held it under the lamp a few months ago.

"Mr. Jing came to Jidu this time, I am both happy and worried." Under the moonlight, the two walked slowly side by side, "I am happy that I finally have the opportunity to ask her about Fengtingguan in person. So she is so grateful Interested." She paused, "Suddenly appeared outside the Qingyan Pavilion that day, it was so abrupt, Mrs. Pei can't be blamed."

"Understood." Ruan Xueyin replied lightly, "Speaking of which, she injured Mr. Ji Qi during the horse race at Qiji Courtyard this time. I should apologize to Mrs. Yu."

Ji Wanling smiled slightly, "It's all a joke. If you fall, you will fall. Ji Qi is a man, so he should take good care of the girl, not to mention that Mr. Jing is a distinguished guest. This small injury is all about experience, and what you will face in the future." Compared with the wind and waves, it is not worth mentioning."

Ruan Xueyin vaguely understood what the other party was referring to.At the night banquet of the Tianchang Festival in July, the long scroll of mountains and rivers was already a vision of loyalty.

No matter Cangwu where Jing Tingge is located, or Jidu where he lives, or Suoning City, which is about to move under the mist, or even Yunshui, which has almost no sense of existence thousands of miles away?
Everyone is eagerly or arranging this competition.Everyone thinks it is inevitable.

What about him?
"It's a pity. Mr. Jing only had one day to enter the harem, and after all, he couldn't talk to her." She glanced at Ruan Xueyin, "Madam Pei wants to ask the king to borrow something, have you borrowed it?"

"I'm ashamed to say it." Ruan Xueyin replied, but she didn't answer the question, "The matter I promised to help you investigate at the beginning, the progress is slow."

She wants to borrow something, she wants to find out the truth, these are all things that happened in Pishuang Temple in early summer.As far as years.

"It doesn't matter." Ji Wanling smiled again, "I also promised at the beginning, I can't rush you. You have your goal, I have my wish, it's not just a matter of time. As long as the result is good."

That's not my goal either.is the teacher's goal.She used to think that the teacher's goal could also be counted as her goal. After all, as a student, she had to obey the teacher's order.

Not so now.She needs to know why.

It's time to go back to Pengxi Mountain.

Under the same moonlight, Gu Xinglang met someone in the imperial study.

The man was tall, but thin, but his shoulders were flat and his back was straight. He was full of heroism, and his slightly thin body bones overlapped into a person with a strange sense of coordination.

"Do you remember it all?"

Gu Xinglang glanced at Di Yan.

"Yes." Diyan held a pen, and there was a thick and thin volume in front of him, "The people and places are listed one by one as Master Xue said just now, and I will check with you later."

Gu Xinglang nodded, and then said to the tall and thin man in front of him: "Being a coachman for three days for such an ignorant girl, I have wronged you."

The man's face was also thin, with sharp edges and corners, wide chin, high cheekbones, and piercing eyes.

"Your Majesty's arrangement has its own deep meaning, such a heavy responsibility, I thank you for your trust."

Gu Xinglang smiled: "I didn't expect her energy to be so good. She fell down in the Qiji Courtyard and she was fine. She still ran around in a carriage and met so many people in more than two days. "

Xue Zhan was also quite helpless, shaking his head and laughing: "That morning, when she opened her mouth, she was going to teach the army camp, which frightened the minister. The disguise of the minister is no problem in front of unfamiliar people, but when she returns to the cavalry camp , but it is very easy to be recognized. Because it is a secret order from the emperor, I have not explained it to anyone, and I am afraid that some ignorant kid will call it out in the street. Fortunately, there is no danger."

"You sent them back to Xiangguo Mansion from Qiji Court, right?"

"Yes. Mr. Jing and His Highness Chunfeng sent by the minister. Master Shen drove Ji Qi in another car." He paused, "Ji Qi probably recognized me, so he stared at me for a long time. But he didn't say anything." , I think Mr. Shen has an explanation."

"It's okay." Gu Xinglang said, "What about the others? Does anyone want to do something to her?"

He arranged for Xue Zhan to drive Jing Tingge himself, firstly to know her whereabouts, and secondly to protect her, and to check on the movements in the hall by the way.

Like Cangwu, Jidu also has people who want to take her life.It's just that different people have different motives.

"I didn't find anyone suspicious." Xue Zhan thought carefully for a while, "I think there is no one."

"Very good." Gu Xinglang nodded, "Go back to rest early. It's hard work."

It's halfway through the hour.

The night was extraordinarily clear.

He glanced at the two stacks of memorials on the case, all neatly arranged on the right.It should all be approved.

"Seven in total."

Diyan lowered her head to look at the case book, "Yes."

"According to the order of time, please come to the palace one by one in the next two days. The time is staggered."

Today's affairs are over.

The ginseng soup that Wanling sent over is on the table in the distance.He glanced at it, and hurriedly asked:

"Do you want to use some now, Your Majesty?"

Indeed a little tired. "Let's serve a bowl."

Still warm.He doesn't like sweet soup. Over the years, the soup that can be used as a supper has been these ginseng soups prepared in different recipes.He drank a few sips, felt quite satisfied, and drank two bowls in one go.

"It seems that the soup made by Mrs. Yu suits your appetite." Di Yan was also satisfied, and smiled.

Gu Xinglang glanced at him indifferently, noncommittal.Scan the ebony table again to make sure there is nothing to deal with.

"Order to go down and prepare for placement."

Di Yan responded with "Yes", but did not move immediately, hesitated for a moment, and asked cautiously: "Your Majesty, are you still not going anywhere tonight?"

Gu Xinglang was taken aback for a moment, then turned around to look at the moonlight between the window sills, "It's so late at night, where do you want me to go?"

"Well," Diyan laughed, "Mrs. Yu sent soup tonight, can you go and have a look?"

Gu Xinglang stared at him for a while.Di Yan's smile gradually disappeared.

"Yes. Let's arrange it."
