That Person In That River and Lake

  Chapter 434 Him, the loneliness in the distance

In the imperial city of Chang’an, in the middle of the great lake, there is dense fog that does not disperse. The slim lotus is like a fairy in a light gauze bathing in the lake, standing with a smile on her face, shy and eager to speak, with tender stamens still resting, glistening and dripping, with a delicate fragrance With the wind, it is refreshing, the red sun rises, against the crystal clear water drops, and the breeze splashes, it is a good season.

Beside the big lake, Emperor Xia looked at the blooming lotus with his hands behind his back, and walked slowly with his brows tightly furrowed. Standing there, perhaps it was because of the pleasing viewing of the flowers, his frowning gradually loosened, and he suddenly turned to look at Xiao Yi, and said, "Xiao Yi, I remember, that kid Gu Qingci once wrote a poem in his Lantian County, saying The best thing is that the lotus leaves are infinitely green to meet the sky, and the lotus flowers that reflect the sun are so red, you say the lotus in the lake in front of his door is better, or my lotus is better."

   "Of course it's His Majesty's lotus flower, contaminated with His Majesty's dragon spirit, how can it be compared with the mundane world." Xiao Yi smiled and said without thinking.

"You old bastard, you know what to say about these things," Emperor Xia said angrily, "That kid, you still say that you can't get dirty when you get out of the mud, and you can't be demon after being cleansed. Every time you think of these two words, I think the lotus in my palace is very vulgar, but he is not in Chang'an, otherwise, I would like to go to Lantian County to see the undyed lotus in his mouth."

  Xiao Yi was still smiling, and said: "Your Majesty is not thinking of lotus, but the person who likes lotus!"

"Oh," Emperor Xia sighed, and said, "I feel very guilty for him. He is only in his twenties. He has suffered so much because of me since he was a child. Rain and rain, their family, I can't stand it."

  Xiao Yi bowed and did not speak.

He has been with Emperor Xia for decades, and he knows that this majesty is different from other emperors. He is a talented and generous emperor, but he has a little more affection. He also knows Gu Qingci's position in the emperor's heart, especially At the beginning of the year, after the King Ksitigarbha who entered the palace alone and talked with Emperor Xia all night came, Emperor Xia felt more guilty towards Gu Qingci.

   "A few days ago, he sent news that Qingzhou was not at peace, and a family had stepped in, and he refused to let me send troops to help, but I always feel a little uneasy in my heart." Emperor Xia said.

   Just when Xiao Yi was in trouble, a voice came over: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, there is no need to worry about Qingzhou matters!"

  Seeing the person coming, Emperor Xia hurriedly turned around, and said politely, "The student has seen you sir."

  In this world, there is only Mr. Wu Que who can be called Mr. Xia Huang.

   "Sir, did you make arrangements?" Emperor Xia asked.

"Well," Mr. Wuque nodded and said, "Qingzhou has Qingci there, and he brought thousands of people from Xingtian Mansion with him, and Princess Qinghe cooperated with him. In addition, Chen Tongxuan has also met me a few times, so he said that he is the same. Qingzhou will not be in chaos, and Buddhism will not be able to make waves. Besides, just in case, I have notified Cai Xi to go to Qingzhou."

  Emperor Xia heaved a sigh of relief, and said, "The Great Confucian Cai Xi went in person, which should be enough to suppress a family."

   "That's right," Mr. Wuque said, "I sent Cai Xi to Qingzhou to suppress the aristocratic family."

   Emperor Xia was taken aback, with a flash of sternness in his eyes, and said: "Is it really the aristocratic family who intervened? I can't help it so soon. May I ask sir, which family is it?"

   "The royal family of the former dynasty, the Su family in Cangzhou!"

  …

  June in Yangzhou, although it is sunny, is like a spring breeze passing by. There are many lotus flowers in the mountains outside the mountains beside the Slender West Lake.

By the lotus pond by the lake, on the promenade, Gongsun Linglong, one of the seven beauties of Qixiufang, was walking with Su Yi. From afar, when he heard the sound of the qin, the qin in Su Yi's arms hummed slightly for no reason, which made people Sadly.

"Oh," Gongsun Linglong sighed: "Girl Tsing Yi, since she came back from a trip to Heiyu a few days ago, she has become congenital in just a few months. It was a happy thing, but, by chance, her appearance , made me feel distressed, and I don't know what happened to her, and I wouldn't tell her when I asked her."

Su Yi lightly stroked the Changqin in her arms, and said: "She entered the way of swordsmanship in exchange for the qin, and the qin made love, and realized the sword intent of sadness. I can't think of anything else that can be done with this sword intent except that Mr. Gu." It makes her sad now, Young Master Gu killed the master in the battle of Baidi City, and the world is rumoring that he and Qin Keqing are connected with each other, but no one knows that Tsing Yi was also there that day."

   "Gu Qingci..."

Gongsun Linglong was a little dejected, and said: "People in the world say that the people in Qixiufang are smart, but they never thought that we also made a mistake. If it wasn't for Cihang Jianzhai's decision to come to Yangzhou, our Qixiufang's decision... oh, If at that time, Qixiufang had made a different decision, it wouldn't have made Tsing Yi even lack the courage to meet Gu Qingci."

  Walking to the attic, a little girl ran out from inside, and said to Gongsun Linglong, "Master," and then called Su Yi Zhili, "Senior Sister."

  Su Yi smiled lightly, rubbed the little girl's head, and said, "Little Pearl, why are you here?"

  Little Pearl said: "Sister Tsing Yi promised me before that she would take me to Xiao Shitou when she is free. I will see if she is free."

Gongsun Linglong stretched out her hand, flicked little Zhu'er's forehead lightly, and said, "You stinky girl, you are only so young, you just read little stones every day, you can do it when you grow up, I'm afraid you will be punished by that black brat." I was kidnapped and left, hmph, I don’t live up to my expectations, did I teach you how to practice the sword?”

   "I've learned it a long time ago," said little Pearl innocently, "Master, you are lying. You said that it would take several months to learn this sword technique, but I only mastered it in three days."

As she said that, little Pearl held a wooden sword and played a set of sword skills in front of Gongsun Linglong and Su Yi. After all, a set of complicated sword skills was perfected in Little Pearl's hands, which surprised Gongsun Linglong and Su Yi. Yi looked at each other.

This little Zhuer was brought back by Tsing Yi before. At that time, Gongsun Linglong thought that the little girl was very clever, so she took this disciple in. She didn't pay much attention to it at first, but then, little Zhuer's talent in swordsmanship shocked Gongsun Linglong, and she had no choice but to accept this little girl as a disciple. I didn't treat it carefully, and after thinking for a long time, I passed on a set of swordsmanship that took at least three years to learn after entering the school, but I didn't expect that little Pearl could still learn it so easily.

"Uncle, sister," at this moment, Tsing Yi appeared at the door, still the same long blue dress, still the same face, but inexplicably makes people feel distressed, the eyes are full of melancholy, at a glance, it is always the autumn wind Sizzling in general.

  Tsing Yi came out slowly, and as she passed by, there was a sudden and sad atmosphere in the air, and she became more restrained, standing in front of the two of them, but there was a kind of loneliness that made people ignore her existence.

Tsing Yi took little Zhu'er's hand, and said: "Little Zhuer was enlightened by Mr. Gu, and he used his sword intent to give little Zhuer a fortune. So, don't be shocked, Mr. Gu's swordsmanship is very good. No matter how far away, even just a random sword intent is enough for little Zhuer to use for a lifetime."

Gongsun Linglong pondered for a while, then said in a bad mood: "This Gu Qingci is really bad, little Zhu'er is so young, he decided to be his sister-in-law by default, because he is afraid that little Zhu'er will not be able to keep up with Gu Qingshi's black boy in the future step!"

   Tsing Yi smiled slightly, but was completely desolate, and said: "I only hope that little Pearl can really find her happiness!"

  Su Yi looked at her younger sister, felt sore in her heart, and said, "Sister, go and see Mr. Gu, maybe you can feel better!"

  Tsing Yi raised his head and said indifferently: "What's the point of seeing or not seeing? He has his own life. If I go, it will only add to his troubles. It will only increase his troubles, so I won't bother him."

"Forget it then," Su Yi said helplessly, "It's just that I heard that a few days ago when the Dong family was destroyed and the grand master fought, Mr. Gu also appeared, and he personally wrote a sacrificial letter to send Dong San off. I don't know what happened. Son, he suddenly brought thousands of people from Xingtian Mansion to Longyuan, and many people are spreading rumors that Mr. Gu had a conflict with Tianxiameng, I'm afraid..."

   "Sister!" Tsing Yi said suddenly.

   "What's wrong?" Su Yi asked.

  Tsing Yi turned and went into the house, took out a long sword, and said: "I want to go down the mountain, he is lonely in the distance, I am really lonely now!"

   Gongsun Linglong said speechlessly: "Didn't you just say that seeing him would only cause him more trouble? Why are you going again?"

   Tsing Yi's sword tapped lightly, like a dragonfly crossing a lotus pond.

   "It's enough to see him from afar and see him well!"

Beyond the mountain and down the mountain, Tsing Yi appeared on a horse, passing by the small mountain village, the river was lying beside the village, a cow blew, and a Taoist priest riding a yellow ox came to meet him. The Taoist priest was carrying a wooden sword and was wearing a gray Taoist robe. Holding a Daozang in his hand, he muttered aloud.

   When passing by, the Taoist seemed to feel something, and the Taoist suddenly nodded.

   The four eyes meet, and they pass by in an instant.

   "Girl," the Taoist suddenly jumped down and shouted, "Girl, please wait!"

   Tsing Yi stopped, rode his horse and turned around, without speaking.

  The Taoist priest came over and said: "Girl, I'm going down Wudang Mountain, Wang Yangming, if you dare to ask the girl's name, I've been looking for you for a long time."

   "Yes." Tsing Yi nodded, then turned around with the rein in hand.

   "Uh," Wang Yangming was stunned, and hastily chased after him, saying, "Girl, don't you wonder why I'm looking for you?"

   Tsing Yi rode away without saying a word.

"Old Huang," looking at Tsing Yi going away, Wang Yangming hastily greeted the old ox, rode on it, and chased in the direction Tsing Yi left, whispering: "My own way is also the way, I come from the way of fate Going is also the way, and I am also the way to seek immortality and ask, girl, you are my way!"

   "Just, why are you so sad."

  Wang Yangming covered his chest and said, "Ancestor Dao, my way is the way of sadness. Could it be that in my life, I also seek the way of sadness?"

   I don’t know why, every time I write about Tsing Yi, I have no reason to think of some things about myself. Is it because I am naturally humble when I am deeply in love?
