something wrong

After getting out of Weiyang's room, Sang Zi and Yan Qitong leaned on the railing and listened to the sound of the pipa for a while before being invited down to enjoy the chrysanthemum.It turns out that there is another place in the chrysanthemum garden, and with the twists and turns along the way, the dark fragrance floats.

Yan Qitong's mind was not on admiring the flowers at all.She didn't like tending flowers and plants in the first place, so she just walked around with the crowd.Chrysanthemum was not Sangzi's favorite, seeing her wandering mind, he took her hand, and the two walked against the crowd to the outside of the flower pavilion.Lieutenant Qi didn't have such an elegant mood, he had already been waiting outside the pavilion, seeing them coming out so quickly, he was a little surprised: "What's the matter, aren't the flowers blooming well?"

"The flowers are very nice, but," Sang Zi pointed to the front, "there is a flowing river over there, there should be many chrysanthemum lanterns in the water at this time, the lights reflect the color of the water, and the water reflects the moonlight, it's quite a sight to see."

Yan Qitong looked at the sky, there was no moon, but when she looked back and saw the corners of Sangzi's lips curled up, she was obviously in a good mood, so she didn't want to spoil the family.

The three of them walked towards the flowing river that Suqing City passed through.

Sure enough, the further you go there, the more people there will be.Most of them are women and children. Sangzi explained that chrysanthemums symbolize longevity, and when the Double Ninth Festival is approaching, it is customary in Suqing City to go to the river to pray for the elderly at this time.

Yan Qitong's heart moved as soon as he heard it, and he walked a little faster.When she got close to the river, she saw a small stall full of homemade chrysanthemum lamps of various colors, so she touched her body.It's a pity that although she came from Hongjing, she seldom even went to the street to buy things in that capital, and she had no idea of ​​bringing money to go out at all. Fortunately, Sangzi handed her a money bag from the side to relieve her embarrassment and save her Get scrutinized by the old woman who runs the stall.She smiled gratefully at Sangzi, then turned around and pointed to a blue chrysanthemum lantern.She has never seen chrysanthemums of this color here, but the handicrafts are different, with more colors and styles. She made a decision and chose a green one. She was about to pay and thought about it. , I ordered another red one.

Of the three lamps, the three of them happened to be holding one in each hand. Sangzi thought that Yan Qitong was choosing lamps for the prime minister and his wife in Hongjing, but she lit three lamps in one go and fell into the water.Every time a lantern is put on, Yan Qitong will stare at the lantern drifting away with the water.The river water was reflected in her eyes, and it seemed that there was a wave of water hidden deep in it, sparkling with light, undulating and turbulent.

On the way back to the inn, Sang Zi still couldn't help asking, "Who are those three lamps lit for?"

Yan Qitong was silent for a while.

The first blue light is for her parents who are far away in another time and space. The blue light is as deep as the sea and as far away as the sky, as if she misses her parents so sincerely.Her return date is unknown, and the long journey is infinitely variable. She occasionally suspects that she may not be able to reach it.But how would she know if she didn't try, besides, she didn't want to let the man who pushed her downstairs get away with it, this bad breath can't be suppressed, it's always difficult to calm down, it's a pimple, and it will be crushed no matter what;

And the second green light is for the parents of this body.She was eager to leave, and it was inevitable that she would be blinded by her eagerness.All kinds of things about the Yan family's parents, now that I think about it, I can't deal with it properly, and I forgot to think about the owner of this body. If he knows that he has taken her body and makes her parents suffer and despair, it is because I have encountered this situation , nor does it depend on it.I also hope that those two who have been hurt by me, who are already like dead trees, will one day be able to turn spring wind into rain and everything will recover;

This third red lamp is lit for Sangzi.I only wish that the cold disease in her body would melt like a scorching sun and turn into a trickle, nourishing her instead of consuming and destroying her.

She hoped that the river in Suqing City and the chrysanthemum lanterns in Suqing City could bless the people she wished for a long and safe life.But she can't say what she thinks.

Some can't say it, some don't want to say it, and some are too embarrassed to say it.For example, when she holds the red lantern in her hand and thinks about it, Sang Zi aligns with the lieutenant and says that every Chinese Valentine's Day, some people put lanterns on the moat of Hongjing, magpies line up in the sky, and the lanterns in the water form a river of stars. I don't know. How many idiotic men and women will form pairs that night, it is a scene.Lieutenant Qi complained that he was guarding the city gate on the seventh day of the seventh year of this year, and lanterns were not allowed on the moat, but he couldn't stand up to this customary rule. The city gate was open until midnight that night, and there was always some chaos. How much trouble.

Sangzi laughed and said, if someone wants to put a lantern in the river for you, you will be overjoyed no matter how much trouble you have, but Lieutenant Qi didn't hold back, and asked Sangzi if someone had put a lantern for her.

When Yan Qitong heard this, he was startled, and with a push of his hand, the lantern that had just been put into the river swayed twice in the water, almost toppling over.Fortunately, she dipped the water twice quickly, and the lantern stabilized her figure again.At this time, she only heard Sangzi answering lightly behind her.

Yan Qitong wanted to turn his head and point to the floating lantern and said, yes, that is.But Lieutenant Qi laughed and said that Dr. Sangzi is a rare woman in this world, and one day she will meet Mrs. Ruyi and become a fairy couple, and the little lantern is not enough to look forward to.

In this way, it is really difficult for Yan Qitong to say that she is one of the three lamps.

When I went back, I took advantage of the cool breeze, and the lights on the street became brighter, and the night became more and more beautiful. All kinds of people, men, women, old and young, who enjoyed the flowers and set off the river lanterns, gradually gathered on the street and walked back to their homes. During this noisy moment, Yan Qitong was in a trance. Returning to the steel-framed city that never sleeps, there will be similar bustle on the road in the middle of the night.And the woman who was holding her hand always held her tightly, making it difficult for her to feel out of her soul to search for the past, so she withdrew her hand and walked forward alone...

Sangzi stopped walking, watching Yan Qitong disappear into the crowd in a daze.Lieutenant Qi took a look at her and chased after her, while she looked down at her hands.

Be let go, and without nostalgia.

On the second day, they left Suqing City.

Before leaving, the pipa girl Xiangqi under Wei Young came to see off the guests.She sent someone to bring over two small boxes, one box of silver bills and the other box of silver ingots.Xiangqi said with a smile that Dr. Sangzi's body is weak, he can't go out and sleep in the wild, and he can't bear the wind and rain.This kind of money is indispensable everywhere, so Madam ordered her to send some money here, hoping not to wrong herself.

Sangzi listened with a smile and did not refuse, thinking that she had made too many medicines and some formulas, Wei Young benefited greatly, she said earlier that she would be counted as a share in the Weiyang Palace, but she was physically troubled at the time, and all she wanted was to hide , where these are needed.

After getting into the carriage, Yan Qitong was directed by Sang Zi to turn over the wooden board under the couch. She knew that there were hidden compartments underneath, but she didn't know that they were all hidden compartments.Especially in the innermost two squares, she was stunned even more.

There are all gold, silver and jewels, and the brilliance that cannot be concealed under this dark wooden plank.

Sangzi apparently only discovered it, and after being speechless for a moment, he said, "It should be your parents who let him go."

Yan Qitong silently put down the wooden planks and tidied up the bedding on the small couch. The more Yan's parents were like this, the more guilty she felt.Last night's parade was like a dream, and after waking up from it, the reality was that even lying on these thoughts, her back was very hot, which really made her feel uneasy.

Sang Zi only thought that she felt sad when she touched the scene, so she changed the subject and said: "Come to this Suqing City again, why didn't you ask how those flower houses are doing?"

Yan Qitong thought that if you didn't ask before you left, you must be afraid that I still have scruples, and you only mention it now that you are leaving, maybe you still want to test what effect it will have on me, she shook her head and said: "If you have any questions, go to thing."

It was actually the same as the answer before entering the city. A simple sentence about the past, Sangzi smiled slightly, but the smile faded away from his lips.If we can see through the past, whether it is good or bad.The scene of being let go on the street last night reappeared in Sangzi's heart again. At that moment, Yan Qitong almost seemed not to know her. After returning to the inn, although his expression was the same, there was always something different.In Sangzi's heart, Yan Qitong has always been cautious, the more we get along, the more I realize that sometimes she hesitates easily when things happen, and sometimes she is a different person.She imagined that something was affecting this woman, making her always reveal these things.

After all, the feeling of not being trusted very much by her letting go is a bit uncomfortable, but Sangzi is not a forceful person, just thinking that maybe their relationship is nothing more than that, then this journey will only arrive safely , the scenery along the way, I'm afraid I can't enjoy it very much.

Not to mention that Sangzi can see from it, why doesn't Yan Qitong know that his mind has been fluctuating a lot recently, sometimes the more he wants to stop it, the more he can't stop it, for example, people have left Suqing City, a sentence heard in Suqing City But it's still in my ears all day long.They walk all the way, and they also rest together. When they walk, they share a carriage, and if conditions permit, they have a room for each person.She and Sang Zi have known each other in the past few months, except for a certain period of time. Even if they have thoughts in their hearts, they can still be together without changing their expressions. This may be because she has always been relatively quiet, neither happy nor angry. It's invisible, so it won't be seen by others.

But the real journey is nothing more than traveling during the day and staying at night, and she gradually felt that Sangzi seemed to be nothing more than that to her.The atmosphere in those specific environments, such as caressing her face and holding her hand, is not like this every day, but it seems that I am the only one who is being bewitched by this.And when nothing happened along the way, Yan Qitong spent more time in a daze, as if right now, Sangzi was reading a book with his arms in his arms, unaware of the bumps of the driving, she had no one to speak, so she could only be in a daze .In fact, Yan Qitong wanted to remind her, don't you have bad eyesight, don't read at this time.But she also felt that once the words came out, there would be an element of concern in it, even if she couldn't control it, so she didn't want to say it; but what was worse, the feeling of being ignored by Sangzi was so empty, so she asked a question Worse words.

Yan Qitong asked Sangzi, did you tell her that I am a very important person?

At that time, while walking on the road, in the last city, Sangzi got a notebook by chance. The strange mountains and waters on it were described in a fascinating way. She was fascinated by it. She didn't know what Yan Qitong asked from the sky, so she looked up slightly. head, looking at her blankly.

Yan Qitong clasped his arms around his sleeves and intertwined his fingers. As soon as the words were spoken, there was absolutely no reason to take them back. Besides, she wanted to ask a long time ago, but she never had a suitable opportunity, and of course not now, so she bit the bullet and said something uncomfortably. Said: "Did you forget? The lady named Wei Yang said it."

Sang Zi covered the book and thought about it, and it was true: "Yes, I happened to be ill at that time, and you saved me again, so it is important." After speaking, he opened the book again and continued to read.

That bit of unwillingness to give up finally faded, so that's how it was.Yan Qitong fell on his back, raised his hands to cover his eyes, and laughed at himself in his heart.He hesitated for so long before asking, but that's just the way it is.Well, it seems that I am the only one who occasionally has abnormal thoughts.Fortunately, nothing happened. Fortunately, she was looking for her way home. Fortunately, she was bewitched by some strangers only because she was in a strange environment. Fortunately, the only person who was bewitched was herself.Thinking of this, Yan Qitong breathed a sigh of relief.

Even so, Yan Qitong still lightly reminded Sangzi: "The road is very bumpy, so be careful that your eyes hurt after reading for a long time."

Sangzi raised her already sore eyes, and the person on the couch had turned her back, as if about to rest, she closed the book, opened the window, raised the bead curtain, and looked out of the carriage.

Chen Da is now driving the car, and Lieutenant Qi is on the other side on a horse.As expected, their journey was just like what Xiangqi said, they would not go on the road unless they were on the road, and they would not enter the city unless they were in the city. So far, nothing has happened.Chen Da was obviously left behind by Prime Minister Yan on purpose, and he knew the route to go there, Lieutenant Qi had no choice but to accept him.Under his arrangement, a group of four people traveled through the city and around the mountains, traveling eastward without any rush every day.Counting the time, like this, the Chongyang Cold Dew, and even the Frost's Fall, it has entered October, and it is approaching the beginning of winter.

Thinking of Lidong, Sang Zi gathered up his clothes and closed the windows.She had already put on the light fur in advance, but the autumn wind still rushed in from all directions. I'm afraid this Lidong won't be so easy.
