Cold Palace’s Abandoned Consort

Ping'er looked at me and said, "I want to tell you that you're late, and someone came to see you just now."

"Find me?" I was a little puzzled. "Who came to me?"

Ping'er said: "It's the bhikkhuni I sent you before."

"What? Is she?"

I subconsciously wanted to stand up, but I felt dizzy for a moment, and fell back in a daze. Ping'er helped me and said, "Don't get up, she's gone."

I snapped: "Already gone?"

"Well, she said she sent you here and wanted to see how you are doing now. I heard that you woke up and went out again. She waited for you for a while and saw that you haven't been back before leaving."

"That's it ..." I'm a bit sorry, that bhikkhuni is my benefactor. I really should thank her in person, but I missed it today. I hurriedly asked, "Did she say in which temple she practiced? Or, would she come here again?"

Ping'er shook her head: "She's a You Fanni, I asked her, too, and I hope she will come back to see you again, but she said she has more important things to do and will leave tomorrow, so-can't wait Met you. "

I sat down in bed.

Seeing that my pale face was getting darker because of disappointment, Pinger could only comfort me: "Don't do that. When that bhikkhuni left, he also said that he would meet by fate. You two have no fate now."

No fate ...?

I listened, only feeling heavy in my heart, no more talking, just closed my eyes against the bedpost.

No fate ...

Ping'er didn't know whether I was awake or asleep, and he stood carefully beside him for a long time, and didn't open his mouth. He waited until I slowly opened his eyes, and then he came over carefully and looked at me sternly: " Are you crying? "

"..."

I didn't say anything, my face was numb enough to feel nothing, and I reached for my hand to feel a tear running down the corner of my eye, and my fingertips immediately became wet.

"What's wrong with you? I think it's weird as soon as you come back."

I looked down at Shuiguang at my fingertips, slowly tightened my fist, raised my head and said to Pinger, "It's all right."

"Then how do you--"

I interrupted him and said, "Pinger, I have good news for you."

"Good news?" As soon as he heard it, his eyes widened: "Are you--"

"Um." I nodded with a smile.

.

Later when Qisong and Erya returned, Ping'er told them the good news.

The child jumped excitedly in the room: "It's great, you can cross the river, you can cross the river!"

Qiyu never spoke. At this time, he said, "Don't make a fool, it's not that you cross the river. What's so good about? I won't go to the kitchen to get food at this late hour. I want to starve your sister."

Ping'er listened, stuck his tongue out, and took the second girl to the kitchen.

Qixi came to the table and sat down. I smiled and said, "Qiyi, thank you for your care these days."

She waved her hand.

I looked at the expression on her face, not happy or unhappy, but smiling very calmly, she said to me: "In fact, I also know that if you want to find a daughter, you must find a way no matter what. But twelve dollars, how can it be so easy. You— "

I laughed: "Qiyi, don't worry, I met an acquaintance and lent me the money."

"Oh……"

"That's right, what's your husband's name and what are the characteristics? Tell me, when I go there, I'll help you."

Qi Chen paused.

I don't know why, I think her meal seemed to shake her heart, but she didn't have any other expression, she just said calmly: "Oh, my surname Gu is called Gu Qi. He is very tall, It's very eye-catching in the crowd. If you really see him, A Qing, let me tell him, it's all right at home. Let him think of a way back. "

I do n’t know if it ’s my illusion. Qi Qi ’s words are a bit light, not like what a couple who was forced to separate the two places to say, but after thinking about it, ordinary couples are not like this. How sweet is it, eachother.

So he nodded and smiled, "Okay, if I see him, I'll bring it to me."

I don't know why. Compared with Ping's eagerness and my enthusiasm, Qi Ji is rather strangely calm. She smiled at me: "Thank you very much."

I looked at her a little strangely, I somehow always felt that something was wrong, but I did n’t know what was wrong. At this time, Pinger had happily ran in holding the rice pot and the second girl, and everyone set the tableware to eat. No mention of it.

After eating, Ping'er went out to inquire again, and immediately came back in full swing, only to realize that there was a ship crossing the river tonight, and left the port as soon as the sea passed. Qi Yan originally thought it was too urgent. Besides, my body is not good and I should cultivate for a while, but He Pinger always said that he had to leave tonight.

I also understand that after tonight, I do n’t know when there is a boat, and when there is a boat, I do n’t know if I can leave.

So, I only lay a little beside the bed in the evening and waited for it to get dark outside. Qilian carefully called me to get up and helped me sort it out. Then I turned to explain to Ping'er: I ’m afraid I ’ll be noticeable, and Erya and I wo n’t go. Ping'er, just go and send Aunt Qing, remember, you must be careful. ”

"Got it."

"You just have to watch her get on board, if you meet someone in the government house--"

"I know, rather than Jiang, don't get caught."

"Be careful."

She also made a lot of promises. I and Hepinger agreed to them one by one, and the second girl standing beside her was so sleepy that she raised her toes and gave me a large oil paper bag in her arms: Give you."

I took it. Inside were a few steaming buns.

"Thank you." Then I looked up at Qi Qi again, gratefully: "Qi Qi, I really appreciate you."

Not just her care these days, I am grateful that in such a difficult world, there are such good people, and such good people still maintain a good heart.

Qi Zheng only smiled slightly.

Looking at her faint smile, I do n’t know why there is a strange anxiety, I do n’t know where it came from, but it ’s too late to think about it, Pinger has opened the door and stood at the door and beckoned: “Aunt Qing, let ’s go It ’s too late. "

I went to the door and looked back at Qi Qi, who was holding Erya, and said gently, "Goodbye."

Qi Yan smiled and waved at me.

I turned around and followed Ping'er and went out.

.

Private boats leave the port, naturally not the public port where they are coming, but a hidden river beach. To go to the river beach, you must pass through a dense mathematical system. The surrounding trees are shaded, and it is more like a towering city wall in the dark night, covering everything in front of the eyes.

Fortunately, there was Pinger. The child probably didn't know how many times he had been here. He even led me forward without even lighting the lights. I walked all the way, although I was trying hard to suppress it, I felt a bit difficult. The food I ate in the evening was spit out halfway. Although the smell of buns in my arms was fragrant, I didn't enjoy it at all.

Just feel tormented.

Finally, when my eyes were about to be integrated with the night, Ping'er pulled me down a **** and felt suddenly bright.

The sound of the water was greeted with a cold chill.

As soon as I lifted my eyes, I saw the sparkling waves in front of me, the cold night in the south of the river, a meniscus hanging in the dark sky, and the magnificent spray of clear water on the river surface, like a silver wire mesh, covering the entire Yangtze River. Up.

Could not help but hold back.

When I was still in the capital, I heard that Lier was in Jiangnan. I had dreamed of the Yangtze River more than once. I imagined that I would cross the river to find her one day. But at this time, the river separating me and Lier was crossing. Now, but a little helpless.

Seeing me standing by the shore, Ping'er carefully pulled my sleeve: "Let's go."

I turned to look at him, and the boy looked excited in the moonlight and pointed to the front: "Look, the boat is here!"

I looked up, and I saw a big ship slowly sailing on the river under the moonlight, and the waves on the calm river surface were bursting with waves, constantly beating the shore, and the quiet night was also broken. There were murmurs of excitement murmuring around.

These people are waiting to cross the river by private boat.

Ping'er took my sleeve and ran to the temporary trestle bridge. He ran and lowered his voice while saying, "I've figured it out. Someone will come to collect the cash when I get on the boat. Please be prepared quickly, if not Silver, they will leave people in the water. "

"Ok."

I nodded and didn't speak. Although my chest was boring when I saw the Yangtze River and the big ship, it was uncomfortable or uncomfortable. People around me saw the ship slowly approaching and gathered to the bridge. The crowds of time crowded, Ping'er desperately guarded me, pushing people around: "Be careful, don't touch!"

I looked at this little man gratefully.

After a while, the ship came ashore.

This boat is not big, but it ca n’t cross the river without permission. When everyone sees the boat, it ’s like drowning people see life-saving straws. In the crowd, I heard a bump in the front. The people on the boat put the huge sampan on the trestle bridge. Several five and three thick sailors came to guard, and constantly pushed the crowd: "Don't squeeze! Silver comes on board again, twelve per person! "

I already held the silver in my hand and went forward little by little with the flow of people.

Soon after arriving at the bridge's bridgehead, the already sloppy river water at the foot of the river kept pounding on the wooden piles, bringing the cold smell of the river water.

but……

I don't know if it is an illusion. I seem to have smelled something else from the water.

Seems a little scented.

But it's too late to think about it, it's my turn to get on the ship, and the sailor in front stretches out his thick arm to stop me: "What about silver?"

I hurriedly found out twelve silver coins and handed them to him.

The man took the silver coin, and looked at Ping'er next to me. Ping'er immediately said, "I'm with her, I won't get on the boat."

"Oh. Then you go up. Imp, you step back, don't block people."

The man's sturdy hand grabbed my arm and pulled, and I got into the boat.

As soon as I stepped on the splint, the whole man stumbled, and almost stood still. I hurriedly supported the wooden fence next to me and looked back at Ping'er standing on the bridge, and desperately tiptoed: "Be careful."

"Thank you, Pinger."

"You must ... find my father!"

"I will work hard."

"A must!"

I smiled bitterly.

The child's heart is kept so reckless and naive, but it is not annoying. I know his eagerness is actually the same as the heart I expected to find Lier. As long as there is a last hope, it must be maintained. A hundred points of enthusiasm.

Thinking of this, I nodded strongly against him.

At this moment, the people behind the ship had crowded over and pushed me: "Hurry up, don't get in the way."

I walked forward timidly, and soon followed the sailor who led the way to the cabin door, and the black hole below was the cabin, and there was a hustle and bustle of human voices.

Below, are people crossing the river by private boat.

I carefully walked down the wooden fence and saw that there were indeed a lot of people in it. I was about to fill the cabin, and a faint oil lamp was hanging from the top of the cabin, shining on this small cabin. Some of the stools were seated, and everyone was sitting next to each other on the deck. Some familiar people were muttering.

I looked around and saw that there was a vacancy in a corner over there, so I walked over carefully and sat down.

As soon as I got there, suddenly the boat swayed. I stepped on the clothes of the person next to me, and apologized in a hurry: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."

The man, wearing a hat, kept sitting down with his head down, and then slowly raised his head: "Anyway."

As soon as I looked up, the pale and thin face met the faint light behind me, and my eyes widened in amazement: "You--"

The man was also surprised: "You-are you?"

I stood stiffly, staring at her with wide eyes.

This is a bhikkhuni in Haiqingyi, looking up at me, a slight smile on his face: "Tan Yue, see you again."

"..."

"The poor man thought that he really had no fate with Tan Yue."

This is a young Pichoni. She is very thin, and I am no stranger to the gray clothes. Even the faint sandalwood fragrance on her is not strange to me. I just remember the smell that I just smelled on the bridge.

This is the bhikkhuni who rescued me and handed me over to Qilian!

Her face was a clouded, light and windy smile unique to the monk, and it was not warm. It was light and easy-going, but I stood in front of her and looked at her in shock.

"It's you?!"
