Red makeup against the world

Chapter 927 Disgust
Yao Zhiyue dismissed this, but Xu Wanzhen couldn't let her marry Quan Moxian.

The Jiuqu Bridge in winter is deserted, and there is really no good scenery.In the lotus pond under the bridge, the remaining flowers and fallen leaves were cleaned up by the palace people, and as far as the eye can see, there is only a lake of clear water.

The north wind blew, carrying the humidity in the lake, and the temperature was a little lower than other places.

In this place, if it snows and the lake freezes, it will be a different world covered in silver.At this time, it can be said to be the most depressing time.

Quan Moxian wore a cloak and came out of the front hall towards the Jiuqu Bridge.He was holding a note in his hand, on which he was asked to meet at Jiuqu Bridge, signed "Yue".

Now that the two families have made a marriage agreement, Quan Moxian knows that this is Yao Zhiyue's boudoir name.

He wasn't keen on this marriage, but it was his mother's wish, and Yao's mansion was chosen out of thousands of choices.

With his current position of power, it is natural that he has climbed the Yao Mansion.Originally, he was unwilling to agree.This kind of noble daughter wants to be arrogant and indulgent, but he is so focused on his official career that he doesn't have the energy to coax him carefully.

Besides, he was just continuing, and I heard that Yao Zhiyue was the old man in the family, the jewel in his palm.No matter how you think, you don't deserve it.

What made her feel strange was that the Yao family's attitude towards this marriage was very enthusiastic, and their attitude was not arrogant.Unable to resist the old mother's repeated requests, he complied.

But until now, he didn't even know whether Yao Zhiyue was flat or round.

At this time, Quan Moxian suddenly received a note from her asking him to meet. Although Quan Moxian felt a little strange, he still went to the appointment.

Maybe, she just wanted to see herself.

Now that the marriage has been settled, Quan Moxian feels that he also has the obligation to cooperate with her request.

A large lake divides the entire Baolin Garden into inner and outer parts, which are just used to receive male and female guests for the banquet.The Jiuqu Bridge is located in the middle of Baolin Garden, connecting the two sides.

Many banquets were attended by important court officials and their female relatives, but they were not in the same place.

For example, when attending a banquet at Duke An's mansion, Duke An and Shi Jingze were in the front hall, while Mrs. Zhuang brought her two daughters in the back garden.If there is something urgent, it can also be taken care of through communication between the servants.

It's just that, normally, everyone abides by the rules in the palace and will not meet through the Jiuqu Bridge.

Entering the palace for a banquet takes at most one day.Is there anything you can't say at home, why come here?

Therefore, at this time, the scenery of the Jiuqu Bridge is deserted and no one visits.There are very few palace people passing by, only the palace guards are still sticking to their duties, patrolling back and forth here.

Hao Yun shrank her shoulders and said, "Zhiyue, let's go back!"

Looking around here, there is a desolation, neither the scenery of the lotus pond in summer, nor the snow in winter.Really, nothing fancy.The wind blowing from the lake made her wear a thick cloak feel useless.

Yao Zhiyue's cheeks were flushed from the cold, but the light in her eyes became brighter and brighter.

"No, let's go there." A bright smile bloomed on her face, and her jade finger pointed to the Jiuqu Bridge not far away, and said with great interest.

That's where she met Wu Zhengxiang for the first time.It is also winter, the only difference is that the lake is not frozen at this time.

But that didn't dampen her enthusiasm.Looking at the palace guards passing by the bridge, Yao Zhiyue thought excitedly, maybe she could see him again?

Hao Yun was already regretting it to the point of death, why did she come to this place with her, instead of watching the excitement in Wanli, she wanted to come to this place where people were freezing to death.

She nodded resignedly.Now, she just wants to go and come back quickly.

Yao Zhiyue walked briskly towards the Jiuqu Bridge like a butterfly.The expression on her face was as if she was about to meet her long-lost lover.

Hao Yun knew what she was thinking and couldn't help but secretly slander her.She's really mesmerized!The last time was just a coincidence, it's freezing cold, who would come here?
The two of them didn't see it, but there was a figure in a black cloak on the other side, walking towards this side alone.

Wen Mulan stood among the trees behind the two of them, using the big tree to block her figure.She had good eyesight and knew in advance that someone would come.Crossing this big lake, searching on the other side of the lake, he saw Quan Moxian's figure.

She calculated the time in her mind, yes, it was just right.

Yao Zhiyue walked lightly, and now her mind was full of Wu Zhengxiang's star-like eyes.If she could be held in his arms again and gaze at her affectionately, she would be willing even if she died immediately.

Yao Zhiyue is not a fool either, she is just too infatuated with Wu Zhengxiang.The more he dismissed her, the more she wanted it.Coming here at this time, I also hold a little hope in my heart, hoping to see him again in this place.

Jiuqu Bridge, now in her heart, is the place where she made love with him.

She has always been quite confident in her heart.I am confident that Wu Zhengxiang is by no means indifferent to her, but because of Xu Wanzhen who was bestowed by Empress Dowager Xiao, he had to alienate her.

Wen Mulan watched Yao Zhiyue get on the bridge, and Hao Yun followed behind with the cloak tightly wrapped around her body.

The bridge deck is made of high-quality Chinese fir, treated with a special insect-proof and moisture-proof technique, and coated with a layer of red paint on the surface.

The weather in the past few days has not been good, the air is finally mixed with sporadic light rain and snowflakes, and the bridge deck is very humid.In some places, there are still drops of water.

As soon as Yao Zhiyue stepped on it, she almost slipped.Fortunately, she reacted quickly, grabbing the handrail by the bridge to stabilize her body.However, this did not stop her enthusiasm at all, and she slowed down and walked towards the center of the bridge.

Hao Yun walked very slowly, she was reluctant to come here to enjoy the cold wind.Wanting to go back first, but also worried about Yao Zhiyue's quick temper, she slowly lagged behind.

In front of them, a group of patrolling palace guards walked over with long halberds.

Just between the bodyguard and Yao Zhiyue, Wen Mulan narrowed her eyes slightly, and a golden bead the size of a little finger shot out from her hand.

There was wind on the lake, but this bead was made of gold and weighed half as much.Coupled with the speed of Wen Mulan's ejection, she was not hindered by the cold wind at all, and shot to the back of her knee joint with a "huh".

Yao Zhiyue only felt a pain in the back of her right leg, and she threw herself forward.The knee joint is originally a joint for people to walk upright. When an external force hit her, her balance suddenly became unstable.

Coupled with the fact that the bridge was slippery, she staggered and rushed towards the guard on the opposite side.

"Ah!" Yao Zhiyue screamed.

This is the second time she has been in danger on the Jiuqu Bridge, but this time she did not meet the him in her mind.Although the guard in front of her was a good young man, he was like a chicken and a dog in her eyes.

But with this pounce, she threw herself into the opponent's arms firmly, which made her disgusted.
