Chapter 10 A Thousand Colors Peach Garden (1)
In the city of Kyoto in March, it began to rain continuously, and it lasted for ten days at a time.Every corner of the capital city is shrouded in dampness.

After Nangong Ye finished handling the government affairs, he walked in the corridor of his backyard. Except for the slight sound of rain, there was no other sound around him.He walked a few steps, stopped a few steps, and suddenly felt a little unaccustomed to such quietness.

"Changfeng, in Chaoxi Garden...has there been any movement lately?"

Changfeng appeared, "My lord, since the concubine was banned, she stays in her dormitory every day, doesn't speak, even rarely goes out of the yard, and doesn't let Shuiyue enter the house to serve her."

"Oh?" Nangong Ye asked suspiciously, "Why?"

Changfeng thought for a while, and gave an answer he thought was more reasonable: "Maybe... is it sad!?"

sad?Nangong Ye's eyes flickered, and the face of the woman who was still smiling after being tortured in Richao Yiyuan suddenly appeared in front of him. Even though at that moment, he could clearly see the strong sadness in her eyes, she was still able to smile. When she came out, she might not know that such a smile made people want to feel more pity than crying.

"The wound on her body...has it healed?"

"Mr. Qi said that he injured his bones and needs at least one and a half months of recuperation."

so serious?Nangong Ye frowned, didn't think much, turned around and walked towards Chao Xiyuan, just a few steps away, a person flashed behind him, said a few words in Changfeng's ear, and then stepped back.Chang Feng hurriedly caught up with Nangong Ye, "My lord, there is news from Langya Mountain."

Nangong Ye immediately paused, turned around, his usually deep eyes suddenly lit up, "What's the news? Tell me quickly."

Chang Feng said: "Yesterday evening, a masked woman in white appeared near the stone house under the cliff."

Nangong Ye's expression brightened, and he asked anxiously, "Did she ever enter the house?"

Chang Feng said: "Didn't enter the house, she just stood outside for half an hour, her eyes were looking at the stone gate, there was no one else around, our people came up to ask her if she was the girl in the stone house back then, she left without answering gone."

Nangong Ye immediately remembered the situation in that stone room when he chased after her and asked her ten sentences and she didn't answer a single word. She immediately raised her lips and smiled. It was right if she didn't answer. With her temperament, she naturally couldn't answer. .

"Where is she now?" Nangong Ye asked, feeling suddenly agitated.Ten years ago, he never forgot the stubborn girl who saved his life on Langya Mountain and fought against the enemy by his side.

Chang Feng shook his head, "I haven't heard yet, but our people lost... shortly after she left."

Nangong Ye's heart sank, "Why did you lose it?"

Changfeng bowed his head and said: "They followed the woman in white into a forest, the forest was densely foggy, once in, the woman seemed to disappear out of thin air, our people walked around for five hours before turning out of the forest, the forest was thick with fog, The woman has long since disappeared."

Nangong Ye frowned, is it the dense foggy forest?Back then, she used that forest to help him escape, and from her appearance, she seemed to know some strange formations, so it was normal for them to lose track.It's just that this time, he disappeared again, and I don't know when he will meet her again.

"Order, if you find this woman's whereabouts again, don't show up, and report immediately."

"Yes." Chang Feng was about to step back, Nangong Ye said again: "Also, ask them to find someone to draw her appearance, body shape, clothes, hair bun, headgear... as detailed as possible."

The next day when Changfeng handed over the portrait to him, he was on his way back to his residence when he passed a garden with gray and white brick walls, and peach branches stretched out from inside the wall, and three or two peach blossoms on the branches were just beginning to bloom, bright red. Young burning.

After passing this garden, in front of you is Prince Chen's Mansion.

"My lord, the portrait has arrived." Outside the carriage, Chang Feng suddenly appeared, and handed over a scroll with both hands.

The carriage stopped, the curtain was lifted, Nangong Ye took the scroll and unfolded it immediately.

In the painting, the woman's clothes are as pure as snow, her long hair is blowing in the wind, her face is covered with a light gauze, and her facial features are indistinct, carrying a unique sense of mystery.There is no ornament on the whole body, but she is so beautiful that she is not like a mortal girl.

Nangong Ye subconsciously raised his lips, looking at the white veil on the woman's face in the painting, he felt an urge to take it off, he believed that the face behind the veil would be so beautiful, if there were no scars left.

The door of memory opens again at this moment...

The sky closed, and the girl who had not returned for a long time finally appeared at the door of the stone room covered in blood with the last ray of light in the dusk behind her back.It was like this every day, the old wounds were not healed, and a new wound was added, and the blood-stained clothes were hanging on her small body in pieces, which were not as tattered as a beggar on the street.But this time, even her delicate little face was covered with blood, only a pair of indifferent but aura-filled eyes were still black and white.

"Your face is hurt too? Come here and apply the medicine." He stood up and waved to her.

The girl didn't seem to hear him, didn't even look at him, she dropped the food in her hand, went straight to the place where a worn-out dress was spread, and lay down, she looked extremely tired, and that kind of expression, he was only seen by those who were tortured in prison. I've seen it on the faces of tortured prisoners.

"What's the matter with you?" He asked, dragging his seriously injured body to her side, wiped off the blood on her face with his hands, and carefully applied the special wound medicine on her wound.He is rarely so gentle, like a piece of fragile china.

She closed her eyes, lying there, motionless and silent, her butterfly-like eyelashes trembled slightly, he saw that the corners of her eyes seemed to be wet, and his heart ached involuntarily, and asked, "You Why did you get injured? Is it because of the food you sent me?"

"No."

That was the first time she answered his question, her voice was cold and hoarse.She never answered other questions.Like her name?Why did she live alone under that desolate cliff?Where has she been during the day?Why were you injured?Who hurt her... and so on, he didn't know anything, only the word "family" was her biggest taboo.

"If you don't leave scars, you will be magnificent in the future, and you will overwhelm the country and the city." After applying the medicine for her, he said with a smile.But she lowered her eyes and walked away silently, with no shyness, no joy, no expectation and longing on her face...

Nangong Ye raised his hand and gently stroked the face of the woman in the painting, just like the gesture of wiping the blood off her face.Although he couldn't see the face, but the refined indifference showed through the painting, which made him feel familiar, and suddenly, he seemed to have seen it before.He couldn't help but frowned, and was searching carefully in his mind, when a melodious piano sound suddenly came from the courtyard wall with peach branches stretching out beside him, a short string of notes, like the jingle of spring water, refreshing the heart and soul.

Nangong Ye's hand touching the portrait paused slightly, "Who plays the piano?"

Changfeng said: "My lord, he is the owner of this Garden of Thousand Colors."

Nangong Ye opened the curtain and glanced out, "Qian Se Yuan? Isn't it Dong Yuan?"

Changfeng replied: "Dong's family sold this garden half a month ago, and the whole family moved out of the capital city. The new owner of this garden has renamed it Thousand Colors Garden."

There are thousands of peach trees with different colors, which are thousands of colors.

At this moment, in the Garden of Thousand Colors, there are thousands of peach blossoms in full bloom, and the yard is full of colorful purples and reds, a magnificent and charming color, which is too beautiful to be absorbed.

In this peach blossom forest, there is a wooden tea pavilion. There are two women in the pavilion. One is sitting in front of the piano case, and the other is leaning against the fence of the pavilion. Regardless of the appearance of the two, the noble and elegant temperament alone is not enough. vulgar.

These two people are none other than Rumo, the new owner who left Chenwang Mansion after being injured and later bought the garden, and Yi Yu, a woman in purple from Jingxin Teahouse.

Yi Yu leaned against the fence of the pavilion, with a springy smile, waiting for Rumo to respond to the Fang Yaoqin she brought.

Ru Mo looked at Fang Qin, his eyes were shining brightly, flickering on and off, and after a long time, he slowly raised his hand, and gently plucked the strings, a string of pearls and jade sounds flowed by, Ru Mo looked back in surprise, extremely surprised.

"It's Zhengyin!"

For thousands of years, Mr. Rong Qing, the most famous violinist, personally built Zhengyin, one of the famous pianos "Zhengyin" and "Xingming" handed down more than 100 years ago!It has been her dream since she was five years old.

She has loved the piano since she was a child, and she is also very smart. At the age of seven, her accomplishments in playing the piano were already beyond the reach of others who spent their entire lives.Therefore, she has very high requirements for Qin. Although all the Qins she owns are rare and good, what she wants most is Zhengyin.But Zhengyin is not only a famous qin handed down from ancient times, which is hard to find with tens of millions of gold, but also rumors in the world that this qin and another famous qin "Xi Ming" belong to the whereabouts of a major treasure in the past century. An enemy country can even shake a country and even the world, and it is what the world seeks.

Everyone came for the treasure, but she was the only one who came for the piano itself.

"I have been searching for three years, but there is no news. Yi Yu, where did you get it?"

Yi Yu shrugged and shook her head lightly, "It's not me."

"Not you?" Ru Mo was slightly surprised, "Who is that?"

Besides Yi Yu, who else knew that what she wanted most was Zheng Yin?Who else has the ability to help her find Zhengyin?
Yi Yu laughed and said, "It's Cange."

Ru Mo was stunned, it was him? !Silent and introverted, always only obsessed with martial arts, Mo Cange, who has been called No. 1 in the Jianghu since the bloodthirsty building was destroyed two years ago, is Mo Cange!

"He's back? Are things handled so quickly over there?"

Yi Yu said: "Can Ge's work efficiency has always been very high, but... he asked the disciples in the pavilion to send this piano back to you first, and he is still on his way back. It is estimated that it will take a few days before he can return to the city. "

Ru Mo nodded, "It's hard for him." Here we have to deal with the remnants of the rebels, and the newly transferred secret cabinet forces from the Kingdom of Jin are beginning to develop, so it is inevitable that there will be some troubles.

Yi Yu smiled and said: "He is willing. Who told him to lose to you? If you want to bet, you have to admit defeat. Hey, by the way, I still have some things to deal with in the pavilion, so I have to go first. This time you go to the Chen Palace, Don't let him bully you anymore! Otherwise, I'll kill him, so don't be sad."

Ru Mo laughed, "I'm afraid you won't be able to kill him!" Nangong Ye is not an ordinary person, she met him when she was seven years old, he was an injured person, and he was able to survive dozens of top masters, he was absolutely incomparable.

Yi Yu was disdainful, pouted, said "Let's go", and disappeared outside the Garden of Thousand Colors.

Ru Mo looked back, stroked the Yaoqin in his hand, and his thoughts moved slightly, Nangong Ye, it's time for him to come too!A few days ago, she went to the bottom of Langya Mountain, and the stone room is still there. In front of the originally very secret stone gate, all the branches and weeds have been removed, as if she was afraid that she would not find the location of the stone room after returning.

"Miss Qifeng, there is someone asking to see you outside the door. The person who knocked on the door was a guard in black with a sword, saying that it was his master, Mu Qinyin, who came." The servant girl Qinzhen entered the pavilion to report.

Ru Mo's eyebrows moved, and he asked lightly: "Then you can see his master?"

"The subordinates have never seen that his master is in the carriage. The carriage is very big and decent. He should be a person of status."

identity?He is indeed a man of standing!Ru Mo smiled mockingly, "Go and talk back, Qianseyuan only sees bosom friends, not the unknown."

Outside the gate of Qianse Garden, Nangong Ye was sitting in the carriage, listening to Changfeng's report, staring at the portrait in his hand, but in the Sacred Heart Lake, a young woman in white with a light veil floated away on a bamboo raft. The passing figure is like a fairy, elegant and refined.

Rumo, Rumo... He silently said the name, his eyes narrowed slowly.

I only see bosom friends, but no unknown people!
"Before this, has anyone come here to ask to see?"

Chang Feng thought for a while, and replied: "Gu Yushu has been here three times, but he was turned away."

"That's strange. Gu Yushu is proficient in rhythm, and she is not an unknown person. She should meet her requirements. It seems that today's rules are specially made for this king." Nangong Ye squinted his eyes for a moment, and ordered Said: "Chang Feng, go and invite Yi Xiao to come."

Not long after, the coldness came along with the long wind.Yuebai gown, long hair loose, consistent casual and chic posture.Seeing Nangong Ye who was seated calmly in the carriage, he asked doubtfully, "What's the matter, calling me so urgently?"

Nangong Ye put away the scroll, jumped off the carriage neatly, glanced at the gate of Qianse Garden, and the dark light in his deep phoenix eyes surged, "I need to use your face to enter this garden to meet someone."

Leng Yixiao said with a smile: "Who is it? My face is bigger than that of your King Chen?"

Nangong Ye was very sure: "It's up to you! Half a month ago, she played the piano in the Sacred Heart Lake. There were countless boats in the lake that day. She never took a look at it. She only borrowed your bamboo raft to leave after you came. , must be seen differently."

"It's her?" Leng Yixiao was slightly surprised. She said goodbye that day in the heart of the lake, and never saw each other again. It turned out that she actually changed her identity and lived next to Prince Chen's mansion.

Nangong Ye ordered the carriage to leave first, and approached the door together with Leng Yixiao.

After knocking twice, the door opened.

The person who opened the door was Qin Zhen who had been waiting behind the door. When she saw Leng Yixiao, she was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled and said, "Mr. Yixiao!"

Leng Yixiao cupped her hands slightly and said: "Young lady has a good memory, I'm going to visit Miss Rumo, please pass it on to Miss Rumo."

Qinzhen laughed quickly and said, "There is no need to pass it on. My master has something to say beforehand. If you are Mr. Yixiao, please come in. But..." She turned her head to look at Nangong Ye who was beside Leng Yixiao, and hesitated a little.

Leng Yixiao hurriedly said: "Oh, this is Yixiao's good friend, who came here just because of the name, if it's inconvenient, it's better for the girl to come in and let me know."

Qin Zhen thought for a while before saying, "Then please wait a while, my lord."

"It's work."

Qinzhen left, and the gate of Qianse Garden was closed. Nangong Ye, who had been silent by the side all this time, said slowly: "Gu Yushu came to the door three times, but he couldn't see you, but Yixiao, you don't need to communicate, and you can come and go as you like. It seems She treats you...it's not just as simple as treating you differently." He looked over with searching eyes, and there was a trace of sourness in his heart.It suddenly occurred to him that this woman might just be similar in dress and body shape to her in memory, or maybe it wasn't her.He felt that no one would be able to easily obtain privileges from a person as cold as her.Unless, that person means a lot to her.

Leng Yixiao smiled lightly, but did not respond.

After a while, the door was opened again, and Qin Zhen stood beside the door, politely asking: "Please, two young masters."

The two entered the garden and followed Qinzhen straight into the peach forest.

Covered by thousands of peach blossoms, she is like wearing a pure white dress, sitting playing the piano, with a light veil covering her face, revealing a pair of peerless eyes of Tsinghua University, indifferent and mysterious, elegant and dusty, just like a peach blossom fairy, enveloping the surrounding beautiful scenery Overshadowed.

Nangong Ye's gaze paused, and he unconsciously clenched the scroll in his hand a little, before putting it into his sleeve robe calmly.

Ru Mo raised his eyes at this time, and on the gravel road in the peach blossom forest, Nangong Ye was walking towards him, dressed in a black brocade robe with flowing light and dark patterns, and wearing a green and white jade hair crown, his face was as handsome as a god, and his phoenix eyes were as deep as the sea, He is watching her.

There were two dark lights in his eyes, sharp and slightly cold, as if Mo's heart trembled slightly when he saw it, he immediately turned his eyes away, ordered someone to put Zheng Yin away, and then turned his eyes to Leng Yixiao who had entered the pavilion first.
