when will i see you again

In the 22nd year of Mu Kingdom, winter.

It snowed heavily in the imperial capital, and the white clothes were pressed against the red city wall. The wind was cold, but it was rare to see leisurely people on the streets.A few men were talking in the tavern.

"Have you heard? Boss Xie from Liyuan is leaving the cabinet!"

"There is such a thing! Alas, it's a pity, for a woman like Boss Xie, I don't know which prince has such a blessing."

"Haha, it doesn't matter which prince, it's not our turn."

"Today's dignitaries are probably going to watch this last play. If one day, we can be like General Shen, tsk"

three days ago.

Saibei hadn't seen the sun for a long time, and the cold wind blew the white grass all over the ground in the evening snow, and the gloomy clouds shrouded the northernmost city wall of Mu Kingdom.

Two rows of armored men stood on the city wall, inspecting the enemy troops that were about to move outside the city.A chirp broke the moment's silence.

The woman in fox fur in the middle stood up slowly. The black fox fur was scattered on the wooden chair with her movements, revealing a white robe. The four-clawed dragon was embroidered on the woman's robe.

The eagle flying over spread its wings obediently and landed on her shoulder, Shen Qingjue moved his fingertips slightly, and untied a silk satin from the eagle's feet, and he didn't know what was written on it, her noble eyebrows became more and more cold.The silk and satin fell into the charcoal brazier on the ground and quickly turned to ashes. As soon as Shen Qingjue gave it away, the eagle immediately returned to the sky and disappeared.

"Back to Beijing"

The woman's thin lips parted slightly, and the voice fell to the ground.During the past two years of disobeying her teacher's order in Saibei, wearing a boa robe on her tall and thin body made her even more imposing.

The generals standing on both sides raised their heads together, the sound of armor colliding sounded one after another, and then they knelt down on the ground.

"General! The Wei army is coming in a menacing manner. You can't leave at this time, as they are about to attack in the next few days!" The leading old general burst into tears, and the young generals also echoed.

Shen Qingjue said expressionlessly, "Prepare the car".Shen Jing leaned over and put the fox fur on the shoulders of a woman who was as tall as him.Shen Qingjue gathered his robe, walked straight through a group of people kneeling on the ground, and went out the door.

There are two kinds of opera troupes in the Imperial City, except for this one, the rest are poor theater troupes walking around the streets and alleys. This time, my son’s opera troupe is decorated with lights and festoons, and the servants are running around to greet the distinguished guests, and they dare not neglect them at all. .

The body-length bronze mirror is round and shining, a woman with loose hair is sitting beside the mirror, wearing a yellow cloak, the surface of the rhinestone head is shining, she is holding a painting in her plain hand, and gently hooking her watery peach eyes, it is an eye-catching beauty. Her phoenix eyes, half of her face covered with makeup were hidden in the flickering candlelight, and she was magnificent.

Lin Cuo stood behind her, wearing a meticulous cotton gown, bowed his head obsessively about her gestures, looked at her for a while, and found that the person hadn't noticed him, so he said, "Yuanyuan, tomorrow is your wedding day, I'll go get ready, I won't sing with you today."

Xie Bingyuan lowered her eyes and nodded: "Go."

Lin Cuo responded, and when he went out to look back, Xie Bingyuan still didn't give him a second look.

Lin Cuo is her childhood sweetheart. Since she came here at the age of 13, she has been taken care of by Lin Cuo. Lin Cuo's family background is very knowledgeable. What is rare is that she has been treating her consistently for more than ten years. From any point of view, she is the best husband-in-law's choice.

only......

Xie Bingyuan tied up her long hair, put her hands together in a luxurious imperial concubine dress inlaid with carved patterns and jade, and took a deep look across the stage to the empty second floor.

"Thank you, Boss, everyone heard that this is your last show, and they all came to join us. The first floor seems to be too crowded, how about..." There are two floors in the Liyuan, and you need to look up slightly when you sit on the first floor. For the people on the stage, the second floor is the best location, where you can have a sweeping view of the scenery on the stage, but only one person has sat on the second floor in the past few years.

The boy was at a loss. He didn't know why Boss Xie still insisted on leaving the second floor empty.

"Empty the second floor." Xie Bingyuan turned her head slightly, and the shadow of the candle danced wildly on her powdered face.He uttered every word very clearly, like a mountain stream flowing out of a piano.

Otherwise, why would Liyuan have such a red top?Boss Xie's voice and Boss Xie's appearance have been the two must-haves in Liyuan these past few years.

"This...there are more and more grown-ups..." the boy said with some embarrassment.

"Empty!" Xie Bingyuan turned her head, her phoenix eyes squinted at him.

"Yes" the young man clasped his hands together and saluted, then hurriedly retreated with his head down.

The sound of gongs and drums outside sounded again and again, and the voices of the guests' discussions gradually sounded, and it was impossible to wait any longer.She walked to the shelf, reached out and took down Yu Ji's saber, lifted the robe, lifted the curtain, and walked to the stage.

The eyes of the dignitaries were bright, and the whole hall applauded instantly.

As soon as they entered the city gate, the hoofs of the two horses pulling the carriage gave way, and they collapsed in the muddy water, gasping for breath.

Pushing aside the black curtain with both hands, the boots stepped out of the car, the tall woman stepped down, the driver immediately bowed his head in salute, and the white python robe was faintly visible in the black cloak.Shen Qingjue looked at the two dying horses who were now exhausted from running wildly day and night and squinted their eyes in displeasure.

The coachman immediately prostrated himself on the ground, not daring to utter a breath.

"That's all." Shen Qingjue glanced at him, and the coachman let out a sigh of relief.

"General" Shen Jing brought his horse over, held the rein in his hand and handed it to Shen Qingjue.Shen Qingjue fastened the fox fur and got on the horse.The horse's hooves stepped in the snow water, splashing in all directions, Shen Qingjue walked through the noisy streets of the imperial city against the cold wind, and passers-by looked sideways.

"Which lord is this? With such a demeanor"

"Looks like General Shen?"

"Except for General Shen, who in the world can wear a white boa robe?" The old Confucian scholar in a long gown shook his fan, and everyone nodded in conviction.

The gate of the Liyuan is closed tightly, and the sound of gongs, drums and cheers can be faintly heard inside. It is a rule passed down that "the opera opens and the circle closes".Once it is sung, it is not possible for ordinary guests to enter.

Shen Qingjue dismounted in one step, his boots rattled on the stone steps, the cold wind blew by, the cloak outlined her slender and tall figure, the two guards at the door were hesitating whether to stop this expensive The guests, the butler who heard the sound, pushed them away and hurriedly greeted them.

"General Shen? You're here, please hurry up, please hurry up." The housekeeper bent down and made a gesture of invitation, his whole body was almost as high as Shen Qingjue's legs.The two janitors suddenly realized, no wonder it was General Shen.

The only female general in the dynasty, her status is second only to the generalissimo, and the other one is special because of her good father, and the one who really has real power is today's one. Two years ago, Shen Qingjue and the generalissimo disagreed and went to guard Bei Sai, far away from the imperial capital, it's no wonder they don't have the eyesight to recognize them, but it's because the war in the north is tense, how come they came back in a good way?

Shen Qingjue was speechless all the way, and slowly went up to the second floor. The applause and applause of the spectators continued continuously. Now that he walked in, he could hear it more clearly.

"You see it's full of people today, the first floor can't be squeezed. Boss Xie insisted on letting the second floor be vacated, so he knew you were coming."

"Go back."

The second floor is low-key and luxurious, with a row of mahogany tables. On weekdays, it is used to welcome dignitaries. Guests can stand by the railing when they are tired from sitting. The stage is built higher, and the second floor is the most comfortable place.

Boss Xie is proficient in poetry and poetry, and the high-level romantic places in the imperial city invite her one by one according to her mood. It is only because of her master who studied opera in the early years that she is resident in Liyuan.

In the past, when Shen Qingjue came, he always had to cover the entire second floor.Baishan Heishui has been entangled with Wei Jun for two years, and now that he has returned to his hometown, he has never forgotten every plant and tree in the pear garden.The carvings and jade construction are still the same, and the play is still this play.

Shen Qingjue flicked his robe, and sat on the chair with his legs crossed.

"Your Majesty is exhausted, why are you chatting with this concubine?" Xie Bingyuan pulled out her sword and turned around beautifully, her body covered in silk and satin still swaying without stopping. Standing in the middle of the stage, she saw Shen Qingjue who was sitting there, Her long hair was tied up, and she was dressed in white, like a heavenly being.

I haven't seen him for two years, and my memory is not blurred in the slightest. The unrecognizable debauchery and wantonness in the past are all gone, and the whole body is tempered and more and more clear.Xie Bingyuan sighed, her uncontrollable heartbeat dispelled the remaining bit of resentment.

The sword fell to the ground with a clang, and Yu Ji, who turned around, fell in the center of the stage, and the black-faced Xiang Yu was crying beside her, and the soundtrack became sad and melodious, and the audience cheered louder and louder.The Chinese dress was covering her body, and her eyes seemed to be filled with tears, Yu Ji smiled, and the Overlord didn't want to live anymore.

Shen Qingjue's eyes were a little bitter, she untied the fox fur and threw it on the chair, stood up and walked to the railing to look at Xie Bingyuan with her hands behind her back.

This is Boss Xie's last scene before leaving the cabinet?This was clearly Farewell My Concubine sung to her!

The drum beat was rapid, and the curtain followed the rhythm to cover the stage one by one. Shen Qingjue sat back on the chair as if exhausted, not wanting to move.

She sat for a long time facing the stage where the music was over, and when everyone had left, the curtains were parted again, and she didn't get up to leave.

"General Shen... Boss Xie is waiting for you in the building." The butler walked over lightly and handed a word.

Shen Qingjue waved his hand, and the butler hurriedly withdrew.She collected herself, knowing that she couldn't hide.He simply put on his cloak, went downstairs and walked towards the small building behind the pear garden.

The snow is piled up, the flowers of the trees are withered, and the branches are bare, which looks a bit desolate.She slowed down her pace, and couldn't help thinking that when she went to the south of the Yangtze River, she walked with Xie Bingyuan like this, and the rain of apricot blossoms in the water lane hit their umbrellas drop by drop.

After going upstairs, taking a breath, Shen Qingjue pushed open the door, the hand that held the sword and looked at the flowers trembled slightly.Xie Bingyuan looked at the person in the mirror and turned around.

Xie Bingyuan washed off the heavy ink on her face, and her gorgeous clothes set off her plain face, which was comparable to spring flowers, and she was even more beautiful than the Concubine Yu on the stage. "General Shen is really fast, I thought you couldn't catch up."

"Thank you boss for playing, Qing Jue dare not neglect." Shen Qing Jue untied the fox fur and threw it aside casually, and sat on the chair by the table.While talking, he poured himself tea.

Xie Bingyuan came over and pushed the tea away, stopped Shen Qingjue's neck, and sat on her slender thigh.Shen Qingjue didn't seem to expect her to be like this, his body paused slightly, and then he raised his hand to wrap around Xie Bingyuan's soft waist, turning his face away, refusing to look at her who was so close.

"Thank you, Boss, for your good means. A few lines of words exhausted my three good horses."

Xie Bingyuan came closer, and poured a glass for Shen Qingjue with a jug of wine in her hand.General Shen, who was used to poisoning and assassinating, didn't even look at it. He held the carved cup and drank it with his head raised.

Xie Bingyuan leaned on her shoulder, her breath hitting Shen Qingjue's earlobe: "I'm getting married tomorrow, what gift will General Shen give me?"

"Give birth to a precious son early, and live longer than Nanshan." Every word was densely packed in her heart, Shen Qingjue pushed her away, turned and walked out the door.Every time she stays for a minute and a second, something in her body that she can't control surges up.

"These two years since the general left." Shen Qingjue suddenly stopped.

"Dignitaries come to my small building to talk all night, General, you and I are old acquaintances." Hearing this, Shen Qingjue suddenly turned his head and stared at her.

"Don't you want to touch me?" Xie Bingyuan, dressed in bright yellow, walked over and leaned close to the tip of her nose.

Xie Bingyuan kissed the center of Shen Qingjue's brow, as if she didn't see the gleam in Shen Qingjue's beautiful slanted eyes.

The chin was caught by the slender fingers, and Shen Qingjue's fingertips turned white. Feeling her strength, Xie Bingyuan smiled.

Then Xie Bingyuan was picked up by the waist, the bright yellow cloak was thrown on the ground, her lips that were still about to speak were blocked with a kiss, and she fell onto the soft big bed.The robes fell under the bed one by one, Shen Qingjue waved his hand, there was a slight sound of breaking wind, and the candle was extinguished in response.

Shen Qingjue grabbed Xie Bingyuan's restless hand, unbuttoned his long arm, and the boa robe that countless people dreamed of floated to the ground in a whirl.

"What's in the wine, huh?" Shen Qingjue turned the face of the person below him, sparks sparkled between their eyes.

"Hmm...something that makes you happy." Xie Bingyuan panted lightly.

"This is Boss Xie's way of hospitality?" Shen Qingjue's body trembled slightly, and he was also a little confused.

"Just try...you'll know"

At night, half of Mu Country is covered with snow.
