Jian An Kee

Opening the lid of the box with [-]% curiosity, I couldn't help exclaiming: "Astrolabe!"

There are several wooden grids in the box, and in the middle is a bronze astronomy plate that has been missing for a long time.I still think that he will not return this thing for 100 years, and I plan to keep it as a family heirloom.

"Hey, put your things away." There was no trace of shame on the face of the instigator.

"You bastard, you didn't tell me when you borrowed it, who the hell!" I complained half-truthfully.

He squinted his eyes: "Will you borrow it if I tell you?"

"..."

"Needless to say, you must make excuses at length, and things will never be given. I may have to do it myself."

I lack confidence: "Then, anyway, the temple master said that it is not allowed to lend to others, so I can't help it."

He unceremoniously greeted me on the head: "Other people? Little white-eyed wolf, your dear uncle, do you dare to be included in the ranks of others?"

"I did it for your own good... It's not that I don't know, using this thing is really the next choice." I muttered and touched my head.

The banter on his face instantly calmed down, and he called me, "Guanglan."

"Ok?"

"You know I have no choice."

"Maybe." I smiled, tears welling up suddenly.The salty liquid irritated the head wound under the eyelids with a dull pain.

I opened my mouth and said: "However, the matter is less than ninety-nine percent, I still don't believe it. You are such a supernatural person, how can you leave? Are you leaving for Kunlun Mountain in a few months? Ah, March and September The month is a good time to go to the mountains to practice, remember to call me when the time comes."

He frowned irritably, pulled off his collar and showed me a black mark the size of a pigeon egg on his left shoulder blade: "Do you recognize this mark?"

I replied mechanically: "Yes. The Taoist technique, the forbidden technique of fighting poison with poison, is only used on dying patients, and it can keep them safe for three months. After that..."

"No need to say any more, I'm sorry to make you sad." He smiled, slender fingers across, and wiped away the tears from my cheeks.

I was shaking, trying to hold back the sobs with all my sanity.

As if he hadn't noticed my gaffe, he leaned over to take some things from another small compartment of the wooden box: "Look at these, they are my little gifts."

Several sealed white pottery balls the size of a fist were held up in front of him, and I took them and weighed them, and blurted out: "Poison?"

There was surprise in his eyes: "How do you know?"

Feeling sorry for me, I choked up and replied, "These few all smell like blood."

He said: "In the future, if I am not around, you will always need it."

After that, Zhou Yu became more and more busy, her eyes became sharper, and she stopped what she saw.After half a month, he waited to settle all civil and military objections, so he took his illness and set out on the road to Jingchu, walking towards the unknown road ahead.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

After the past two years of idle life, my thinking obviously can't keep up with the group of people around me.When I thought with all my heart that General Sun would only be busy with big things like expanding the territory, unexpectedly he was sure to keep me by his side.

When I was brought before Wu Guotai by Sun Quan again, I looked calm on the surface, but there were countless question marks in my heart.Having said that, what's the matter with her rare and kind attitude?

After Sun Shangxiang fled to Jingzhou privately, it was rumored that Wu Guotai scolded Zhou Yu and our family surnamed Zhou Yi in front of the servants for not having any good things, so except for the visit to Sun Quan, I never set foot in the general's mansion to make fun of myself.

Face to face with Mrs. Wu today, I felt an indescribably sticky feeling in my heart, and it was difficult to even maintain a standard and habitual smile at the corner of my mouth.To me, her peaceful expression was really strange, but she occasionally glanced at me during the dinner, and her expression was extremely unpredictable.

Then during the toast, Sun Quan had a falling out with her.

The situation at that time was as follows: After drinking for three rounds and eating five flavors, he first offered her a serving, "I wish my mother a happy life and a healthy life." Then he motioned for me to continue.

I was unprepared for a while, so I awkwardly raised the cup of wine and faced the old man: "... Alan wishes Guo Tai good health and peace of mind."

The old man snorted heavily, and put her palm on the bar, showing a gesture of rejection.

So I smiled and drank it all in one gulp.I have also experienced more embarrassing scenes, so what is the point of being cold-hearted.

I sat back safely, but Sun Quan next to me didn't know which nerve was wrong, and suddenly stood up.He is tall and sits at the head, even when the banquet is in full swing, he is still quite eye-catching.Gradually the hall became quiet, and even the actors playing elegant music behind the curtains noticed the subtlety of the atmosphere and stopped playing one after another.

Wu Guotai asked him, "What are you doing here?"

He lowered his head and didn't look at her, and slowly put the wine cup in his hand on the case, "Mother, didn't my son agree with you earlier?"

Everyone was puzzled for a while, and some people in the banquet commented: "The general is too drunk, why don't you go to the back hall to rest?"

Sun Quan suddenly raised his head and looked at me, and said loudly: "Mother, Xiangxiang's matter has nothing to do with Alan, please don't make things difficult for her."

The hostess of the banquet woke up and ran to the back of the curtain to urge the players to start playing again, but Sun Quan's words had already fallen into everyone's ears.Those present here were originally the closest family members of the Sun family, so they couldn't help but look sideways at this time.

I pressed the wine bar from beginning to end, just like Mrs. Xiao Qiao a year ago, with an elegant and decent demeanor and a calm demeanor.

Wu Guotai couldn't get a response, so Sun Quan jumped out of the table, grabbed my hand, and led me out of the general's mansion in full view.

I smiled and walked out of the gate with him under the astonished and disdainful eyes of everyone.Such a scene is not beyond my expectation, but if a man is willing to do this for you, there is no need to distinguish between the true feelings and the false, and the vanity alone will swell to the extreme.

As the saying goes: You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all of the time, but you cannot fool all of the people all of the time.

And now, I'm even lying to myself.I am satisfied with the benefits he gave. I don't know what Sun Quan thinks. I guess he is just greedy for the novelty I bring him, but he is capable and can make his own decisions. Who can persuade him?

He pulled me straight out of the gate, untied the reins on the horse-hitting stone, and carried me onto the horse together.I huddled in front of him and giggled: "Our General Sun has gone completely mad because he abducted a woman and fled in front of everyone."

"I'm crazy, hahaha!" He whipped his horse and hugged me tighter with the other hand, "Alan, I've always dreamed of a day like this. I make up my own mind. I don't want them to treat me Point fingers, never again!!"

"Okay," I also laughed out loud, "The general keeps his word, and now he says he wants to be his own master, so he won't be at the mercy of others!"

The two rode their horses all the way to the bank of the great river.The cold wind blew across my face like a sharp knife, but my heart was full of joy. Standing on the icy cliff, overlooking the broad and turbulent river, I suddenly felt open-minded. I held Sun Quan's hand, Facing Dajiang, he shouted: "Hello—how are you—"

He took my shoulder and looked down at me with a rare look of concern: "Alan, I am very happy with you, and I don't regret it."

I giggled: "Why are you talking so seriously. Is the general telling a funny story? At most, you and I just skipped the meeting halfway and were a bit rude in front of the guests. It's not elopement."

He laughed lowly, turned around and pressed me against the stone wall and kissed me fiercely.

I wrapped my hands around his neck, closed my eyes and responded with all my heart.

I guess I hurt my throat by yelling and taking a few breaths of cold wind, I coughed lightly, he paused, and immediately stopped: "Why are you coughing?"

Without waiting for an answer, he turned his head to call for someone, took the cloak handed over by the guard and tied it on for me.I blushed and lowered my head, and he shaved my cheeks again and said, "I like to play tricks. I was very annoying just now, why are you shy again?"

Of course I wasn't doing it for the sake of being shy, but I was thinking that I hid some of my true feelings in such a lingering and romantic kiss.

After this time, the situation changed subtly. Whether it was Mrs. Xiao Qiao, the people from the General’s Mansion, or anyone else, no one dared to slander anything related to Sun Quan in front of me—anyway, he and I It's past the light.

I was worried for several days, and seeing that Zhou Yu didn't send any harsh letters, I gradually became indifferent. Except for Zhou Yu and Mr., I don't care about other people's opinions.

The next day, I was thinking about how to prune a white plum plant in the front yard. Huzhu held a round bamboo basket and ran to me with a smile to offer treasures: "Miss, the winter jasmine is blooming. Take a look, isn't it beautiful?"

She is a small person with two small buns, her forehead hair hangs softly, and a very delicate flower is dotted on her sideburns, not to mention how attractive she is.

I couldn't help reaching out and rubbing the top of her hair: "Smelly chick. Girls like it, just take it to my room and decorate it."

"Thank you, Miss!" She was very happy: "I'll go right away."

She was about to turn around when I stopped her, "Is it the flowers from your sister Zhanlu again?"

"Miss Hui, that's right."

"Hmm." I looked away from the basket in her hand, "You go."

I turned my head and handed the scissors to the attendant Le Ling, I pretended to be careless and said, "Go to Madam for a walk."

"promise."

Seeing Mrs. Xiao Qiao's residence in front of me, I rubbed my arms: "I didn't expect it to be so cold, Le Ling go back and get me a cloak."

"Miss?" She hesitated for a moment, "Then there is no one around you."

I laughed: "It doesn't matter, is it possible to get lost in the distance of three steps? I will go in by myself."

"No, the servant girl will come back as soon as she goes."

I nodded and watched her go, pulled off the hairpin on her head and put it in my sleeve pocket, kicked off the corner of the wall, climbed over the wall and turned over, just landed on the flower room separated from the corridor by a wall.

Mrs. Xiao Qiao loves flowers very much. Although she also loves playing the piano, incense and making tea, nothing compares to cultivating flowers and plants to make her happy. It is because she has been busy taking care of her little sister these few months that she has let it go a little bit.I heard that the greenhouse in the Dudu Mansion spends thousands of gold every winter on charcoal fires, with the aim of urging the one or two hundred pots of delicate and famous flowers, which will also please the hearts of the beauties in the middle of winter.

I also heard before that there was a woman invited from central Fujian in the greenhouse who was an expert in cultivating flowers and plants.I glanced away, and saw a tall woman in a blue dress among the flowers, with one hand on the silk sash around her waist, staring at me vigilantly.

I couldn't help laughing, I stepped forward and bowed my hands: "Dare to ask, is it Yu Zhanlu?"

There was a looseness on her face, she stepped forward and bowed: "I have seen my nephew."

"Yo, I dare not take it." I hurriedly helped him up: "You gave me that flower basket in the yard, and it looked familiar to me. I asked you, but do you have something for me to see?"

She calmly bent her neck, untied a small jade pendant and handed it to me.It was a jade kiss beast of obscure quality, very inconspicuous at first glance, and could be bought in the grass market for thirty or fifty bucks.

I held the jade pendant in my hand and looked at it carefully, and said with a smile: "Tangtang 'Qi Kiss' is serving the flowers and plants in the greenhouse, I'm afraid I feel very wronged."

Thinking about her usual extremely cold temper, here I filter out my teasing words about her, pinch the little red string on the jade pendant and lift the jade pendant from my palm to put it away, and said indifferently: "Please come with your servant."

She deftly pushed aside a large bush of drooping winter jasmine and led me into the greenhouse.The two rows of tall fir shelves on the front and left are full of precious orchids, and the heat of the earthworm under the feet smells the fragrance of the flowers, which is very greasy.

I saw Yu Zhanlu groping in the row of orchids on the left, and stroked along the linear leaves of a spring sword. She touched out a finger-sized bamboo node and handed it to me.

I put the bamboo knot into my sleeve and said: "Thank you. Please be careful in everything."

She nodded reservedly.

I turned around and climbed over the wall from the other side, and walked along the road for a long time, until finally Le Ling caught up out of breath: "Miss, where are you going, so I can help you find it!"

I waited for her to put on the cloak for me, and said dryly: "I feel cold hands and feet, I don't want to go to Madam's, I want to go back."

"Ah? Then let's go back quickly, and the slave will ask the kitchen to bring ginger soup."

"Then I want to eat persimmons today." I bargained, while happily tightening my clothes.
