Dust and Ember Song

Chapter 12

Fire Cloud Palace, an unexpected guest came today.

She is wearing a blue dress, and she wears a pearl waffle in her hair, the fragrance is very pleasant.

Xingjun was handling matters in the main hall, and she was sorting out the documents.Zu Yun was also there, he was lying on the mat not far away, looking at the idle books he was carrying.

Zhijin walked in, and the three of them looked up at her.

Feeling embarrassed, she turned and walked away, perhaps because she was afraid that the tears on her face were still wet, as usual, she went to the Piandian tea room to get tea, but the utensils were missing.

Just now, I seemed to see a woman beside Xingjun, and I thought that woman was a fairy who came to worship, report or discuss matters.Could it be that she is serving tea to Xing Jun?why?
Zhijin held a tray of refreshments and watched Zu Yun walk over.

"What are you doing here?"

He snatched her plate, picked up the tea and ate it casually, "The taste is average."

"Why, is the world fun?" He looked at her displeased expression and didn't take it seriously, "Don't go in, your Xingjun is accompanied by a beautiful woman at this moment, so it's not easy to bother her."

Confused, she was dragged by Zu Yun to the pavilion in the garden.

"Who is that woman?"

"A gentleman loves a beautiful woman."

"Can't you explain more clearly! Who is she and what is she doing here?"

"She is the granddaughter of the old Yaoxian, and she is in love with your family Xing Junlang, what else can she do when she stays together."

She was shocked, and half-believed Zu Yun's words, so she ignored him and walked straight to the main hall, seeing a scene she couldn't believe.

The woman leaned on Xingjun's shoulder and looked at the document with him.

"Do you believe it now?"

Regardless of his pull, Zhijin stepped up to the hall and stood in front of them, looking at them with unknown eyes.

Xingjun deliberately lowered his head, the woman was startled, and asked Xingjun after a while who she was.

He didn't answer, got up to look for some books.

"Who are you?"

Who am I!Xingjun's attendant, his wife in the world, the woman who has slept with him for many years. "Who are you?"

She smiled slightly, "My name is Wan Qi, the granddaughter of Yao Xian."

Zu Yun came to pull Zhijin, she somehow became so naughty, and even yelled at him, "Go away!"

He was startled at first, and then smiled kindly at Jin, really good-natured as always.

"It's rude to rest!"

Xingjun saw Zhizhi like this, and was a little angry, "In the days when there is no self-discipline, I don't know where to learn this, go back to the room and reflect on it."

He seldom treated her so seriously. She was puzzled and aggrieved, and said loudly to him, "Tell me, why do you want her by your side, why!"

With a livid face, he said calmly, "You go back to the room first." He motioned Zu Yun to take Zhijin out.

Zhijin was full of bitterness, tears fell again, and he walked out of the main hall with difficulty.

"Don't be sad, Kongchen cares about you after all."

"When did this happen?"

"You mean Wan Qi?" He lazily walked beside Zhijin, looking at her expression from time to time, "Well...it might have happened very early, but you didn't know about it."

Zhijin recalled Xing Jun's usual doting on her, but he didn't know that he would do the same to other women.

"Let's go, I'm sleepy." She shut him out, and the thing in her chest seemed to fall into a fire, burning so dizzy that she fell to the ground.

Zu Yun outside the door was in a daze for a long time, he didn't know how to comfort her, he knew that this matter would hurt her deeply, but he also selfishly planned to leave her for Kong Chen.

If Wan Qi and Kong Chen form a happy relationship, then Zhi Jin will naturally leave them.But can she really say goodbye? He and her have a deep friendship, so how could they push each other away so easily, not to mention that Kong Chen doesn't like Wan Qi.He smiled wryly, forget it, let him help Kongchen get rid of Wanqi after he got the elixir, at least in this way, Zhijin will be happy.

Late at night, she was in the room, slowly opening her eyes, the pain in her chest was still there.She got up from the ground, lit the ever-burning lamp, sat under the window, looked at the moonlight, took out the letter written by Luo Tang, and the image of him when he wrote the letter appeared in her mind.

In the dark and dark prison, he wrote word by word with an ink pen on the thin cloth that Ge Lingtou found. He was not afraid to tear open the wound of the first half of his life, and told me his story. He was waiting for me. I'm back.

My husband left me this letter before he died. He may have hidden it in his prison clothes and wanted to take it to the afterlife.Maybe he gave the letter to Leader Ge and asked him to give it to me after he found me, maybe... In short, the letter arrived in my hands safely, and I also knew his last words.

"Luo Tang, I miss you, are you okay?" Zhi Jin drew Luo Tang's tomb on the paper following his memory.

"Luo Tang..."

"Jin'er, who are you calling?" He asked softly behind her.

Zhijin put down the pen, stood up, and looked at his eyes with loss, helplessness, and cautiously waiting for her answer.

She didn't answer, but asked him instead, "Wan Qi is gone?"

Kong Chen approached her, extremely gentle, "You don't have to care, she is not important."

After listening, she was puzzled, but couldn't suppress her joy.

"Who is Luo Tang?" He asked.

Zhijin looked at his face, remembered his appearance in the world, and remembered the moment of marriage.

He kissed her cheek stained with tears, doting on her, "Jin'er, don't cry, I'm here."

She embraced him, embraced Xingjun who had experienced life and death with her in the world before reuniting.

"Xingjun." Zhijin called him, gently, enduring the pain that hadn't dissipated.

He responded, and hugged her tightly, embracing the dusty past between each other, the unspeakable vicissitudes of life.

"The man named Luo Tang asked me if I would like to sleep in Xinghe, if I would marry him, and if I would be fine now and in the long run."

"Is that the dream that made you cry in pain... I'm sorry, it's my fault."

"Mr. Xing, Luo Tang is your name in that dream, and it is also the name I gave to that nameless valley."

The bright moon is in the sky, and the osmanthus cicada is in the building.

When Yuenu recalled her arrival, there was a turmoil in her heart, Luo Tang in that letter was so affectionate, much like her He Yin.

Thousands of years ago, she was tired of the loneliness of the moon palace and yearned for the excitement of the world, so she used the magic method to descend to the earth privately, and after arriving in the world, she wandered around, extremely excited.

Without the control and discipline of the heavenly court, she is happy and at ease. Although she looks like a man, she is so handsome that it makes people look at her frequently.

She drank alcohol for the first time, and the colorless liquid was so pungent. She was so drunk that she lay on the ground drunk and sang songs in a daze.It's a joke even if you think about it, the majestic lord of the Moon Palace was defeated by the little wine in the world.

The waiters bit their bullets and carried her to the guest room, who was already sprawled, for the other guests to have a quiet meal.

When she woke up, at the end of the next day, she completely forgot about being drunk.

It was the time when the crown prince of the Cheng Dynasty was hunting in autumn, and the outside of Yucheng was already arranged by the officials.
