Chapter 64 The Lantern

It was early winter, and the weather was getting colder. The trees in the courtyard were only bare trunks, withered branches and leaves fell to the ground. A few maids were cleaning, and only a few evergreen trees were left with luxuriant branches. The decadent scenery of the city has added a bit of vitality.

Ximo stood in front of the window. Since Beigong Qiyi imprisoned Beigong Juechen in this courtyard, most of the people in the courtyard were assigned to other places, leaving only a few strict-mouthed ones, and they were not allowed to step on the ground. After half a step into the inner room of "Xianyiju", he was the only one still living in the side hall. Xi Mo tied all the hair scattered on his back into the hair crown, and smiled coldly.

He was thin and handsome, and when he loosened his hair, he looked slender and even a little soft, but now that he combed all his hair, the weakness disappeared without a trace, and he even appeared a bit ruthless and cold.

He has excellent bones, he has been practicing martial arts with his father since he was a child, and he was born from licking blood on swords since he was a child, so how could he be weak?In order to avenge his father, he sealed off his whole body's strength, and he was unable to practice martial arts for six years. However, in the end, he paid for himself. What his father said was right. People from the Beigong family should not be provoked, otherwise he would only lose his wife Another soldier!

So, my father lost his life, Qi Yong lost his heart, and I also lost my love...

A crumbling leaf on the dead branch outside the window finally floated down slowly, Xi Mo closed his eyes, panting deeply, suddenly, his ears moved, his body took a step back, he opened his eyes, and saw I saw a woman in black standing by the window with her arms crossed, looking at him indifferently.

Xi Mo raised his eyes slightly, his expression unchanged, "Why are you here?" Qiang Yanxi stared at him for a moment, then said indifferently, "I need you to do me a favor." Xi Mo spread his hands and said with a smile: "I said, I'd like to help you with this."

Qiang Yanxi lowered her eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Save him, I have my purpose and you have yours. At other times, I will lure Beigong Qiyi out, and you will take him out of the village. The rest is up to you." How about seeing who is one step faster?" There was a flash of light in the star's eyes, and Xi Mo smiled lightly, "Okay."

He took out a note from his sleeve and handed it to Xi Mo, Qiang Yanxi said in a low voice, "Remember the time." As soon as the words fell, the person had disappeared into the room, Xi Mo glanced at the time on the note, and then wrote it down Kneading it in his hands, he walked to the window and slowly let go, the white powder flowed out of the window from his palm and was blown away by the wind, Ximo raised the corners of his lips with a half-smile, and slowly closed the window superior.

So what if you escaped?Everyone who saves you has a purpose, Beigong Juechen, you have always looked at others like ants, but you never thought that there would be so many people who want to tear you apart a little bit...

"If the second prince doesn't return to the palace, the gate of this palace will be closed." Ever since we met in the "Shiyuan Building", this person has been following them, which is really disappointing. Beigong Qiyi frowned dissatisfiedly, and said coldly, Zhao Yixiao didn't care that he was extremely disgusted by others, "Master Young Master, I have already left the palace to build a mansion."

Beigong Qiyi raised her eyebrows and said with a half-smile, "Yes, why did I forget that at the age of the second prince, he should have left the palace to build a mansion long ago. After all, the second prince is not a prince." Zhao Yixiao's expression turned pale. Shen, he looked at Beigong Qiyi, twitched the corners of his mouth after a while, and said with a smirk: "Young Master is right." Beigong Qiyi squinted at him, took Beigong Juechen's hand gently He smiled and said, "Where does big brother want to go next?"

It was getting dark, and the lanterns on the side of the road were lit up, half of the man's face was hidden in the darkness, strange and secretive, the little girl selling lanterns came to the three of them, her voice was as clear as a bell, "Brother , buy a lantern."

Beigong Qiyi was slightly taken aback, and then thought of the poem he mentioned on the lantern two years ago - Shuangshuang is sad and cold, the lonely lamp is incomprehensible, and she rolls up the curtain to look at the moon and sky and sighs, the beauty is like a flower separated by clouds.

A beauty is like a flower across the clouds... He looked sideways at Beigong Juechen's sculpted side face, and suddenly laughed out loud. He took out a piece of silver and handed it to her, and said with a light smile, "Little girl!" Sister, if I give you the money, we don't want the lantern." He held Beigong Juechen's hand even tighter, and the smile lines on his lips deepened, now that the beauty is by his side, why do we need any lanterns.

The little girl selling lanterns held the ingot of silver tightly, looked at the backs of the three leaving, and tilted her head in doubt, "That beautiful brother and uncle are a good match, but didn't mother say that only men and women are the same?" Right?" She muttered softly, as people kept passing by, she shook her head and put on a sweet smile, "Beautiful sister, let's buy a lantern..."

"Let's go to the theater." Beigong Qiyi was immersed in her own thoughts, when she suddenly heard the man's nonsensical words, she couldn't help but look up at him in doubt, "En? Brother, what did you say?"

There is a small theater not far in front of the three of them. Beigong Juechen pointed at the theater and said in a low voice, "Didn't you ask me where I want to go? Let's go to the theater." Beigong Qiyi thought for a while, nodded, "Brother wants to listen to the opera, but that theater is too small, how about going to the "Liyuan"?"

"Liyuan" is the largest theater in central Beijing. It is used by the royal family and nobles. It has produced many well-known actors. Heed his opinion.

The "Pear Garden" was already full of guests and overcrowded. As soon as the three stepped into the door, they heard a noise. Beigong Juechen frowned, and Beigong Qiyi gently squeezed the man's hand, and said in a low voice : "Brother, bear with me, there are many people in the lobby, so naturally it will be noisy." Zhao Yiqi looked at the play cards and said with a smile: "Oh, little Lian'er is going to sing today."

Xiao Lian'er is the most famous actress in Beijing, with a good voice and good looks, attracting a large group of people to spend a lot of money on him, just to hear him sing a play.

"Little Lianer?" Beigong Juechen doesn't like to listen to operas, so he doesn't know much about this industry. Seeing that someone finally paid attention to him, Zhao Yixiao hurriedly explained: "This little Lianer is the most famous one in the theatre. Danjiaoer has a good voice and good looks, but she is a bit arrogant and doesn't often come out to sing, but if she catches up today, it's a blessing to her ears."

"It's just an opera singer, and it's even better." Beigong Qiyi said with a sneer, "He is popular now, so I am willing to praise him. After a few years, he will grow old and his voice will no longer be able to sing. At that time, Even if the wall falls and everyone pushes it, let's see how proud he is."

Beigong Juechen looked at him sideways, and said with a half-smile, "Why are you angry with just an actor? Little Lian'er? That's a bad name." Beigong Qiyi frowned, and pulled Beigong Juechen As soon as he walked in, Beigong Juechen let him pull him, but he curled his lips into a smile.

Zhao Yixiao followed behind the two, his eyes became more inquisitive.

"Hey, three, I'm sorry, Xiao Lian'er came on stage today, and the seats are full, you three, why don't you come back tomorrow?" The sweaty waiter stopped in front of the three, Beigong Qiyi raised her eyebrows Picking, with the air of a dandy, "It's full? Today we still want to listen to this little Lian'er's play."

"This..." The buddy saw that the three of them were dressed in rich and noble manners, and they must be the ones who can't be offended. But this ordinary position really doesn't exist, so the buddy scratched his head, wondering: "Three masters, today It's really a coincidence that there is no place for you, if you want to listen, can you stand?" Beigong Qiyi's face darkened, and said coldly: "What are you talking about, let us stand?" With a shudder, he said tremblingly, "Grandpa...Grandpa...I..."

"What's the matter?" Boss Hou of Liyuan pulled the waiter behind him and reprimanded him: "How do you entertain guests? Go, go aside." The waiter stood behind the boss with his head down. He turned around and looked at the three of them with a smile.

Boss Hou was taken aback when he saw Zhao Yixiao, and even more shocked when he saw Beigong Qiyi, "You, why are you here today?" Understand the rules, I have neglected the three, please forgive me, please forgive me..." Then, he turned around and slapped the clerk on the head, "Why are you still standing there, why don't you hurry up and apologize to the three distinguished guests !" Seeing the boss like this, the buddy broke out in a cold sweat from fright, and quickly bowed to the three of them, "It's the villain's fault that some villains don't know Taishan, please forgive me... "

"Okay, okay," Beigong Juechen waved his hands impatiently. He looked at Boss Hou and asked in a low voice, "Is there any room now?" Although Boss Hou had never met him, he looked at Beigong Qi Yi's attitude towards him also knew that this person's identity was not simple, so he nodded repeatedly and said: "Yes, yes, the three of you will follow me."

Take the three of them to the private room on the second floor to sit down. In the private room, there are all kinds of pastries, melons, fruits, tea and wine. Boss Hou rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "This is the place with the best view. The three of you take a good look at it." If you need anything, call me." Seeing that Beigong Juechen nodded, Boss Hou bowed his body and retreated.

The sound insulation of the private room is indeed much better than that of the lobby, and all the noisy noises are blocked outside. Beigong Juechen is sitting on a soft chair. As Boss Hou said, this private room is in the best position, facing the Looking at the stage, you can see clearly from all three sides. The main play has not started yet, and there are only a few martial artists on the stage tumbling to add to the fun. Beigong Juechen looked away dully, and asked, "When will the main play start?"

He didn't look back, and his eyes kept falling on the crowd downstairs, so Beigong Qiyi and Zhao Yixiao didn't know who he was asking, and there was silence in the private room for a while. After realizing it, he said with a smile: "It will take a while for the main show to start. If the owner feels bored, you can start later..."

Before Zhao Yixiao finished speaking, the curtain of the private room was suddenly lifted, and the three of them followed the prestige, and saw a man wearing a dark blue golden moiré robe, a purple gold crown on his head, and a feather fan in his hand. When he came in, the man was dressed richly and gorgeously, and his appearance could be considered handsome. The man's eyes fell on Beigong Qiyi, and he couldn't help but light up. Then he saw Beigong Juechen, and his eyes became even brighter, because Zhao Yixiao had his back turned to him. , so he didn't see his appearance, the man coughed twice, clasped his fists at Beigong Juechen and Beigong Qiyi and said, "Hello, two young masters, I'm Zhao Gan, I don't know how to address you two?"

This voice...Zhao Qian...Zhao Yiqi frowned slightly, Beigong Qiyi looked at Zhao Yiqi with a half-smile, and said in a low voice: "Second prince, this one, you should know him Zhao Yiqiu nodded with a wry smile and turned around, Zhao Gan saw him startled for a moment, but he reacted in a moment, he played with the fan, and said with a frivolous smile, "Yo, Second Emperor, you are here too, why? , are these two yours?"
