mirror

Ao Lie strolled to the front of the Hanyuan Hall, and saw the white veil inexplicably appearing in the middle of the hall.He rolled his eyes, and was about to turn around when he saw Ao Xiaocun rushing out of the veil in a panic and heading straight for him.When Cun Xin saw Ao Lie, she didn't say anything, her face was like a cherry, and she brushed past Ao Lie's side like a gust of wind.Ao Lie raised his eyebrows, watched Yang Jian receive the spell, laughed secretly, walked slowly to the front of the hall, and whistled: "People say that the true gentleman of Qingyuan Miaodao is gracious and has extraordinary taste, and now it is true at first sight. A veil is missing in the main hall, and I told my brother to find a few sharks to weave it, but I didn’t expect Zhenjun to send it today.”

Seeing that it was Ao Lie, Yang Jian's blush flashed away, and he said with a bow: "Your Highness, you are safe here." Ao Lie resisted the twitching cheeks, leaned over to put Yang Jian's shoulders, and said, "I say brother-in-law, my sister Don't look at the stubborn temper, the soft heart. If you still can't handle her, just show her the wound on your chest caused by the axe, and make sure she will cry with pear blossoms." Yang Jian turned sideways, showing no trace After removing Ao Lie's arm, Fang said: "I'm with Cun Xin, not to make her cry."

Ao Lie was stunned for a moment, stopped laughing, and said seriously: "Yang Jian, Cun Xin has been arrogant since she was a child. She is my father, queen mother, and some of our brothers spoiled her. She didn't listen to her parents and went to sea to marry you. , so that she was separated from Xihai for thousands of years, and later returned home with Li, all because of this willfulness. I thought that only a hero like you can protect her with such a reckless temperament as Cun Xin. I never thought that, The girl we have cherished and held in our hands for thousands of years is actually crying every day."

When Yang Jian heard this, his heart felt sad.Only to hear that Ao Lie's deep voice said again: "Although it is inconvenient for me to intervene outside the prescription, I have heard about your affairs more or less. I can't say that my sister is right, but you are a husband, although you are red And thinking of Yicui, it is your fault. This debt, I, Xihai, will one day get it back."

Yang Jian raised his eyebrows. It was the first time he had such a serious conversation with Ao Lie. Before, he only heard that this Guangli Bodhisattva was self-willed when he was young, and he didn't see his heart and nature when he came to Lingshan. Looking at it now, his words are quite With the calmness and stability of his elder brother Mo Ang.Yang Jian cupped his fists slightly apologetically and said, "Your Highness is right. Everything you did yesterday is like death yesterday, and everything you do today is like being born today."

Ao Lie nodded in satisfaction, and his tone was a little slow: "You have been watching the moon for thousands of years, and you are already known in the three realms. I was blocked by Cun Xin. At that time, I only knew that you only had Chang'e in your heart, and that you married my sister to repay your kindness, but that day by the Yujing Lake, I saw that you were not completely ruthless to Cun Xin. I was only surprised that everyone said Erlang God You value love and righteousness, and you are a straightforward person, but since you have someone else in your heart, how can you hold back your heart and have been facing her day and night for a whole 1000 years?"

Yang Jian smiled wryly: "The matter of Wangyue is hard to explain in one word, but I still owe an explanation." Ao Lie patted him on the shoulder, changed his face, and said with a playful smile: "My girl is used to being stubborn, so I will leave her to you , we don’t have to worry about it.”

Yang Jian accepted it with a smile, and said: "Now Qinghua University..." "Is it up to you?" Ao Lie said before he finished speaking: "The master has something to do, and the disciple will do his best. I am just I haven't returned home for many days, and I'm going to go with my master, and I don't know when it will be over, so I just came back to see my father and queen mother, and I don't care. It's so good to see you again, Keke, I'll go to Miaoyan Palace right away. "

Yang Jian also said: "I will go with His Highness, and I still have a few words to tell Chen Xiang." Ao Liexin said, "Yang Jian, you are just a hard worker", but smiled on his face, and went to the Pure Land of Changle with Yang Jian without mentioning it.

Cun Xin stayed behind closed doors in Xihai for more than two months, and was already terribly bored.It was the Double Seventh day at this time, and although Xihai was not on this festival, the girls inside and outside the palace had already prepared to beg for clever things early in the morning.When Cun Xin was in Guankou, he also bought all kinds of colored paper, straw, and thread, and weaved them into all kinds of ingenious gadgets.She is a fairy herself, so of course she doesn't have to bow down to the sky and do the act of "welcoming the fairy", but she also exploded various kinds of fruit and gave them to the servants of the Yang family to taste.Now that I haven't been with this meeting for many years, I feel very fresh.

In the afternoon of this day, Cun Xin woke up after taking a nap, and Xiu Zhu took care of her dressing.Just hearing the sound of the curtain, a group of mussel girls meandered in holding a few boxes filled with lacquer and golden dragon patterns.Xiu Zhu saw it with a smile: "Princess, this is a pastry fruit for begging at night. In previous years, the eldest princess made a fuss. This year, the princess said it and gave it to the princess for review."

When Cun Xin looked at it, he saw that the box was filled with multicolored gold-painted and butterfly-pattern plates, which contained all kinds of freshly fried noodle fruits, some of which were cut into various patterns, and some were molded into various birds and animals. Exquisite and clear, vivid.She casually asked, "What kind of stuffing is it?" The leader clam girl quickly squatted down and replied, "Princess Hui, there are sugar, lotus root powder, lotus paste, and bean paste." Seeing that Cun Xin was speechless for a long time, Xiu Zhu then waved his hand and dismissed the clam girl.

If that person was there, he would frown again, Cun Xin thought to himself.In Guankou in the past, whenever she made sweets, she always brought them to Yang Jian to taste.Although Yang Jian is not addicted to sweets, he would frown and take a small bite, and then hand the rest to Cun Xin.There was only one time when Cun Xin Fu Zhi Xin made stuffing with loose rice, and Yang Jian ate three of them.Cun Xin was overjoyed, originally he only thought that he didn't like these snacks, but he never thought that this time it was right for his spleen and stomach.Just as he was about to say, "From now on, we will only make pine nuts", Xiao Tiangou rushed in, saying that the Meishan brothers were out, waiting for the second master to go hunting in Fangcun Mountain.Cun Xin knew that he would not come back until three or five days later, when he stepped forward to stop him, Xiao Tiangou accidentally touched the teacup, and a cup of good Yuqian Longjing poured it all over the dessert, soaking it all up In a mess, Cun Xin immediately dropped the plate.

Now I want to make a piece of Song Rang fruit, but who can I give it to?Cun Xin sighed, stood up and said to Xiu Zhu: "I'm going out at night, you tell my sister-in-law that you don't have to wait for me." After finishing speaking, without waiting for Xiu Zhu's reply, she left the Dragon Palace and came straight to the sea .When she landed, she hesitated again. Tonight, lights and festoons are everywhere in the world to celebrate the Qixi Festival. Where can she hide?After pondering for a while, Fang used the method of water escape and ran to Yujing Lake.

The water in Yujing Lake has been rising since two months ago, and the wind and thunder have changed its color, so fewer and fewer people dare to go there.The lakeside, which was originally not populated by people, is now desolate like a desperate situation.At this moment, the clear water of the lake reflected a crescent moon in the sky like a mirror, and the sparkling light seemed to penetrate directly into people's hearts.

Cun Xin was only wearing a pomegranate red tube top and high-waisted skirt, and a crimson purple half-arm gauze shirt. The moon was already in the middle of the sky, and the night in the world was still so hot.She looked at the scarf on her arm with distaste, and just as she was regretting, there was a gust of refreshing breeze from behind.She was surprised, looked forward to it, and looked back with some hesitation, and she saw the man next to the boulder not far away.

Cun Xin lowered her head, muttered something, walked over gracefully, and said, "Zhenjun is so leisurely." Yang Jian smiled, and the ink fan in his hand shook gently, bringing a pleasant breeze. "I can't sleep, so come down and have a look." Yang Jian looked at the boulder beside him, raised his hand to touch it, and rubbed off the moss on his fingertips.

"This is Ao Ruo and Cheng Jiao's...?" Cun Xin asked.Yang Jian nodded, as a tacit consent.The chirping of insects in the summer night came from the distant forest, one after another, making people inexplicably impetuous.Cun Xin sighed and said, "The two of them are seeking benevolence and gaining benevolence." Yang Jian didn't speak, but looked up at the Milky Way across the sky, thoughtfully.

Cun Xin also raised her head, in the dark night sky, fine stars flooded the sky like quicksand.When the wind suddenly picked up, the stars, big and small, twinkled along with them, as if they were about to fall down at any time, and they were too vague and out of reach.I remember one Qixi Festival one year, when she and Yang Jian set up a tea table to enjoy the coolness under the tree, Yang Jian took out a round fan from nowhere, handed it to Cun Xin and said: "You said the fan was lost the day before yesterday, this is a new style made by Zhinu Palace, you see How is it?" Cun Xin was so happy that she couldn't put it down, she held it up and took a closer look.Yang Jian said with a smile: "The one embroidered on it is willow tree jackdaw, the artistic conception is a bit bleak, but it's just for coolness." Suddenly a firefly flew by, and Cun Xin threw a fan and hurriedly got up to jump, which made Yang Jian laugh, "Everyone is so happy." Say 'Qingluo Xiaofan flutters the fireflies', you are good, throw the fan aside, and catch it with one hand." As he said, he grabbed something casually, and wrapped something into the gauze bag that did not know when it turned out, and made a lamp Fluorescent lamp.

It was not until many years later that Cun Xin read in her eldest brother's book collection, "Silver candles and autumn lights are coldly painted on the screen, and light Luo Xiaofan is fluttering fireflies. The sky and night are as cool as water, sitting and watching the Altair and Vega stars." It turns out that her life with Yang Jian also has its own meaning. After such a poetic night, it is a pity that the tuanfan has disappeared, and the person who gave the tuanfan has already moved to the deserted 33 Chongtian.

Cun Xin's neck was slightly sore, and the corners of her eyes were slightly wet. When she wanted to wipe it off with a handkerchief, she suddenly remembered that the four princesses had asked the fourth princess to give it back to Yang Jian a long time ago, so she had to sniff.Turning his head, he saw Yang Jian's hand beside him, holding a silk handkerchief.Just as she was about to pick it up, she withdrew her hand hesitantly and asked, "This handkerchief..."

"Don't worry, there is no magic power." Yang Jian replied lightly.Cun Xin picked it up, but didn't wipe away her tears, just stared at the handkerchief in a daze.This is not the side she embroidered. She wanted to ask Yang Jian where he put the original piece, but she felt that she was not qualified to do so.Yang Jian only smiled and said, "So that side is in the temple." Cun Xin raised his head in puzzlement, and heard Yang Jian say again: "There is only one side in total. I am afraid that I will lose it or get it dirty, so I locked it in the temple." In the secret room."

Cun Xin said with a smile: "That was originally your thing, you don't need to tell me where you put it." Yang Jian seemed not to hear her words, and said to himself: "There are still many things in the temple, all of which are left by you. When Cun Xin heard the words, she became sad again for some reason. She was afraid that Yang Jian's next sentence would be "When are you going to get it?" Xihai has a lot of them, and there is no shortage of those few items."

Yang Jian was taken aback for a moment, and saw Cun Xin abandoning him, walking towards the lake, and hurriedly asked: "What's wrong with you?" Let me go back to beg for cleverness. There is a lot of water here, so I just borrow the road to go back to the West Sea." Yang Jian laughed, and thought for a long time before opening his mouth, and the woman was about to run away.Seeing that Cun Xin had already gone on the waves, Yang Jian didn't have time to think, he flicked his fingers in a hurry, broke the waves, and threw a dragon girl into the water.

Unprepared, he choked on a few sips of water, struggled to stand up, and was about to speak with glaring eyes, but Yang Jian had already rushed forward, not avoiding the water, standing in the lake, his robe was half wet.Cun Xin was so angry with Yang Jian that she couldn't speak. Seeing him like this, her heart felt hot and she cried, "Yang Jian! You, you only know how to bully me..."

Qingyuan Miaodao Zhenjun smiled, stretched out his hand to wrap Longnu into his arms, gently stroked her back and said: "You forgot, right by this lake, you pushed me a somersault, and my arm fell to the ground to bleed " He looked down at Cun Xin, and said softly: "If we want to bully, the two of us are equal." Cun Xin choked on tears and didn't answer, just wiped all her tears and snot on Yang Jian's shoulder.

After finally slowing down, Cun Xin choked up and said, "I fell into the water like that that day, and you saved me." Yang Jian was also very emotional, "I saved you, and you saved me in the West Sea. You were quite resentful, thinking that you might as well let me die with my mother, so as not to suffer from the turmoil in this world. It was not until I went to the heavenly court that I realized that the law of heaven is permanent and cannot be defied. Later, you were in the heavenly court again and took my place The crime of deceiving the emperor—Yang Jian owes you more than a life-saving favor."

"You don't owe me anything." Cun Xin raised her head stubbornly, "I don't want you to owe me anything either." She repeated.The dragon girl's eyes were so dim that there was no brilliance: "You tortured me, and I tortured you. Even if there are thousands of grievances, they have been wiped out in those 1000 years. If there is anything left, that day by the Yujing Lake, You have been punished by God for me, and you can repay it. Or, I still owe you a life-saving grace."

Yang Jian endured the soreness in his throat, and said with a hoarse voice and wry smile: "The relationship between you and me is like vines and vines. No matter who owes whom, it has long been settled. If it is not clear, I don't want you to pay it back. I owe it to you." let's go."

Cun Xin burst into tears and smiled, raised her fist and punched Yang Jian on the shoulder.The water waves spread slowly from the place where the two stood, carrying the melting moonlight far away.The sky full of starlight spreads on the lake, as if there are countless fireflies flying under the water, blinking and blinking.The mountains and forests in the distance are hidden in the night, like tens of thousands of screens, reflecting the glimmering lake, as if it has never changed for thousands of years.

It's been a long time since I left my hometown,

Recently, the personnel affairs have been half-disappeared.

Only the mirror lake water in front of the door,

The spring breeze does not change the old waves.
