This sleeve is broken secretly

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is the deep summer of Hongwu's 28th year.At this time, the humming of cicadas is like a tide like a wave, washing the doors and windows day and night, coupled with the dullness of a kiln, it is easy to make people toss and turn at night and have difficulty falling asleep, and be irritable and weak during the day.

Xie Ling had a lot of errands these days, and he was so busy that he was dizzy every day. Coupled with the excruciating heat, he almost made him feel sick.Because of this, she didn't look for Shen Bing for a few days, and counted the days with her fingers when she had some leisure time, the two hadn't seen each other for less than half a month.

This person, why didn't he look for him when he was busy, and didn't take the initiative to come to condolences when he was busy?

Fortunately, today is a rare leisure day.Xie Ling rubbed his neck slightly and walked out from the main room of the household department, walked out through the shade of the yard, while greeted the colleagues who met him face to face, while secretly planning to go to his family, Master Shen.

He had just walked to the front yard, when he suddenly heard someone shouting from behind: "Thank you, sir!"

When Xie Ling turned his head, he saw the tea servant in the yamen running over panting with a bag in one hand, and saluted him: "My lord can teach me how easy it is to find... This is what my servant just sent me." Yes, it is said to let the adults use it as soon as possible after receiving it."

"My house?" Xie Ling was taken aback for a moment, and took it over.

That thing is not easy to get started with.Xie Ling shook off the carefully wrapped outer skin, revealing an elegant food box of sandalwood wood, with exquisite and delicate patterns carved on the surface of the box, it looks like something used by high-class people.

Holding the food box, he slightly pushed the wooden cover with his thumb, and suddenly a cool and icy breath poured out from the gap of the food box.But in the food box, there was a cup of sour plum agar cheese in a small celadon bowl, and the fresh milk curdled cheese was dotted with a little red plum sauce, which made the mouth water.And there is a small piece of ice in the corner of the box, which cools the celadon bowl and cheese to the extreme, which is most suitable for taking a bite on this hot summer day.On the edge of the ice was an orchid that looked like it had been pinched just now, it was so delicate and beautiful, and the tip of the flower was still slightly dewy.

Such an elegant thing... It doesn't seem to be something sent by Xie Zhai.

It should be known that Xie's father joined the army in his early years, and later brought a simple and simple lifestyle into the family. The Xie family's boys were all raised "poorly", and the family rarely provided them with the extravagant utensils and utensils that other aristocratic families are used to. utensils.

Therefore, Xie Ling could tell at a glance that this was not Xie Zhai's handwriting.

Who could that be?

A little bit of vigilance rose in his heart - it was too much like someone who didn't know the inside information pretending to be the name of the Xie Mansion, sending something imported from unknown origins to murder his life.

He frowned slightly, and stretched out his hand to push away the fresh orchid, but suddenly found a plain note hidden under the bowl at the bottom of the box under the flower branch.

The plain paper was pressed by orchids, and at this moment, a faint fragrance of grass and trees was released.However, the familiar face and handwriting on the paper are beautiful, elegant, agile and magnificent, and even a glimpse of the peerless demeanor of the writer can be glimpsed from this excellent font——

"One for a while".

Holding the food box in his hands, Xie Ling stood in the courtyard of Hubu in the scorching summer.The vigilance and keenness of Cai Cai had completely faded away, he blinked his eyes blankly, as if he had been dazed, and after a while, two suspicious blushes appeared on his cheeks.

"Crack", he slammed the food box shut and took a deep breath.The hotness on his face was heating up, he looked up and looked around guiltily, but there was only Feng Ye whispering, but there was no sound of anyone.He finally calmed down, couldn't help it, quietly opened the lid of the food box, and gently twisted the plain paper with two fingers.

The paper was cool to the touch, on the front was written the four characters "one period and one meeting", and on the back was written a line of time and address - "Xu time, west of the city at the foot of Yuepo."

An uncontrollable smile twitched the corners of his mouth.

No, this is not the place, it's too unserious and dignified.

Xie Ling cleared his throat suddenly, tried hard to suppress the smile, but still couldn't restrain the joy erupting from the bottom of his heart, he pressed his fist to his lips, and laughed softly.

Shen Liangqing, Shen Liangqing, you are really...

I like it.

----

Wangyue Slope in the west of the city is not a place with beautiful scenery. There is only a wild mountain that is not too high. Even if you climb to the top, you can't see any magnificent scenery.

However, Xie Ling didn't think about that much at all.

At this time, even if Shen Bing asked him to go to the pig slaughterhouse in Xishi for a while, he would go there happily.

Although it was written on the plain paper that they would meet at Xushi, Xie Ling had already been seduced into itching and arrived at the foot of the mountain more than half an hour earlier.

At this time, the sun was setting, the forest was quiet, and the heat was dissipating little by little. Xie Ling was leaning against a big tree, and his mind was full of Mr. Shen from his family, and he was giggling while thinking about it. It would be shocking enough for others to see his appearance. human.

Why did Shen Yan ask him to come here?Drinking to the moon?But why not in his own yard?There are also bamboo chairs and osmanthus trees to cool off.Or is it an outing to enjoy the scenery?But it's a big night, and it's in the wilderness, what scenery is there to enjoy——

Wait!

...the wilderness—the wilderness?

Xie Ling straightened up abruptly, his eyes widened in embarrassment, and the suspicion in his heart turned faster and faster.

Could it be that he was specially invited to a place where no one was around in the middle of the night for the purpose of...?But, but Mr. Shen from his family didn't seem to look like this.

But maybe it’s because I haven’t tried it before, so I want to try something new and open up new possibilities?

This, of course he is willing!But--

Xie Ling's Wannian thick skin was a little shameful.He leaned over and touched the land and grass, thinking with some anticipation and some worry——

Why didn't Liangqing say hello to him earlier, so that he could bring a mat or something... Now the ground is rough and dirty, and his Liangqing's body is icy and muscular, lying on the ground and knocking It's not good if you touch it.

What can I do.As long as he thinks of Mr. Shen lying softly on this wild wasteland, looking at him helplessly but coquettishly, he will—

What should he do if he feels that the nasal tube and nostrils are hot?

Here, Xie Jin's head is full of random and strange thoughts. Sometimes he stands and giggles, sometimes he sits in a daze, and sometimes he gets up and turns around anxiously.In a blink of an eye, the sun went west, the rays of the sun gradually dissipated, the damp and cool air surged up, and the night gradually shrouded the forest.

The time soon came to Xu time.However, the road from the capital is still deserted in the distance, with no people or horses, only the night breeze blowing up the dust on the ground.

Shen Bing still didn't come.

Xie Ling folded his arms, stretched his neck and looked at the way he came, gradually feeling a little restless in his heart.

Didn't Shen Yu meet him at Xushi?Why didn't you come when the time came?It's okay if the official business is delayed, but what should I do if I am afraid that I will encounter some danger when I come——

He was thinking of unnecessary pictures and scenes in his mind, and the more he thought about it, the more anxious he became.At the end, I really couldn't wait any longer, strode over to untie the reins of the horse tied to the tree, and prepared to ride the horse back to the city first to find Shen Bing's people before talking about other things.

He put the saddle on the horse, turned the horse's head, and was about to let out a whistle, but suddenly froze.

The moment he turned his head inadvertently, he saw a breath-taking scene.

Just now he stood with his back to Wang Yuepo, and didn't pay attention.But at this time, he was on top of a tall horse, but he saw a forest path shrouded in night, and at some point, a mountain path lit up with soft fluorescent lights lit up.However, he saw that this path started from the foot of the mountain where he stood, and spread up like a twist, among the trees, turning on and off, until the imprint of silver light was still faintly visible on the top of the distant mountain.

Like a nine-day Milky Way that travels through the mortal world, it is shining but silent, leading the way ahead of him.

Xie Qin was so stiff that he almost staggered off his horse, and took two steps to look at the fluorescent path.But I saw some stones on the ground, and I don't know what kind of paint was painted on the stone surface, as if it can absorb the light of the silver moon. Once the night falls on the top of the moon, this fluorescent path will light up silently.

It seems that this road has been here for a long time, waiting for someone to return.

Xie Ling's heart trembled violently.

Could it be him?Why...why did you do this all of a sudden? What's the purpose?Is it just to surprise him?still--

There are thousands of thoughts in his mind, but these thoughts are like leaves flying in the wind. Before he landed on the ground, he suddenly flew out, rushing along this road tracked by the moonlight.

is it him?Could it be him?

If it was really him... then I would see that person now.

Wangyue Slope has been deserted for a long time. This road is surrounded by trees and weeds, so it is not easy to walk.However, Xie Ling was very anxious, passing by like a flying swallow, speeding up against the breeze blowing from the top of the mountain, but after a while, he felt that the road under his feet was gradually flattened, the left and right branches were thinner, and the night wind slowly brushed against his cheeks It's cool, that's a comfortable temperature that belongs only to the high places on the top of the mountain.

After the fluorescent path led him to a bush on the top of the mountain, he disappeared.Xie Ling was slightly out of breath, and looked around in the dark night, but there was still no one there.The moonlight was like washing, and the silver chain behind his feet was still there. Everything was quiet in a gentle and peaceful silence, but the person he most wanted to hug was missing.

"Liangqing!" He couldn't help shouting, "Liangqing!——Shen Bing!"

Where are you?Where are you?Come out and let me-

A burst of fireworks rose suddenly from behind the bushes, drowning out his call.

Xie Ling turned his head suddenly, only to see the brilliance as bright as the rising sun soaring into the sky, flying into the night sky like a retrograde fashion, instantly lighting up the deserted mountain, his astonished expression and helpless heart.

...It's fireworks.

Clusters of magnificent fireworks rose into the night sky, colorful and full of flowers, blooming only for him.Xie Qin stared straight at the shining fire, and did not want to look away an inch until his eyes were sore, and at some point his eyes were filled with a shallow watery light.

He sprinted and rushed behind the bushes in an instant.But I saw a small piece of water in the open space full of waves, turning over the quiet ripples like a veil under the moonlight.The fireworks rising from the sky are reflected in the pond, and the reflection of the water color analyzes the shape of the fireworks, making them appear as a bright mass.

A cluster of fireworks is set off, and four words are reflected in the pool water-"Happy Birthday".

Xie Ling was shocked in his heart.

Another cluster of fireworks rose, but the reflection on the water changed its appearance again - "Pingshun Ankang".

The successive fireworks are still in full bloom.People at the bottom of the mountain look at it from a distance, and they can only see clusters of colorful lights. They probably think that some leisurely young masters and ladies come to the wild mountains to set off fireworks for fun.And only Xie Ling standing here, looking down at the undulating reflection in the water waves, knows the deep meaning.

"Happy birthday, peace and well-being."

Amidst the bursting out of the voice, it seemed that someone was whispering blessings with a smile in his ear with a clear and elegant voice.

Xie Ling closed his eyes and took a deep breath, trying to suppress the soreness in his nasal cavity and the rolling emotions in his chest.But everything is in vain, the surrounding air, sound, and everything reflect the light and shadow of that person, immersing him in sweet suffocation.

"Liangqing!" He suddenly shouted against the crackling sound, "Where are you? I want to see you!"
