Glancing at the paper ball in his palm, a faint light flashed in his eyes. Fu Qimo avoided the sight of Fu Qiheng and Ji Zizhen and stuffed the paper ball into his sleeve without leaving a trace.
After a while, Ye Yun returned to the palace. Many people at the table had left. As for Yu Wenyong and the concubines in the harem, they had returned to the palace early.
Ye Yun picked up the wine glass on the table and drank lightly. He glanced at it casually and unexpectedly met a pair of eyes that were as soft as spring breeze and water. He paused for a moment with the wine glass in his hand, and then a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. He raised the wine glass high and shook it towards the opposite side. Drink it all in one gulp.
Seeing Ye Yun, who was acting so boldly and without being sloppy, the smile in Su Muyun's eyes deepened. He poured a glass of wine for himself, followed her example, raised the glass high to signal, then covered his face and drank the wine.
It's obviously the same movement, but the feeling of doing it is completely different. One is extremely free and easy, the other is elegant and noble. Looking from a distance, they are unexpectedly harmonious.
Not far away, Fu Qimo looked at the relaxed interaction between the two, and suddenly felt that the wine in his hand became boring. He put down the glass and stood up suddenly.
Beside, Ji Zizhen and Fu Qiheng were chatting. When he saw him suddenly stand up, Fu Qiheng said with some confusion: "Qi Mo, where are you going?"
Fu Qimo said nothing. Under the puzzled looks of Ji Zizhen and Fu Qiheng, he straightened his somewhat messy clothes and walked straight to Ye Yun.
Looking up at Fu Qimo who suddenly appeared in front of her, half a height taller than herself, a flash of surprise flashed through Ye Yun's eyes. She glanced sideways at the seats in the General's Mansion. General Fu, Mrs. Fu and Miss Fu were nowhere to be found. There, only the eldest son Fu was still sitting there. As if he had thought of something, Ye Yun suddenly said: "Are you here to beg me to let you go back to the General's Mansion? That's fine, today I..."
"Let's go."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted. Ye Yun looked startled, looked at Fu Qimo in astonishment and said, "Where are you going?"
"Don't you want to go back home? Let's go."
After finishing his words, without giving Ye Yun a chance to refute, Fu Qimo turned around and walked out of the palace door first.
Looking at the walking figure, some doubts gradually appeared in Ye Yun's eyes. Could it be that this man was fooled by her and refused to give up such a good opportunity? Or... he stayed for other reasons!
Thinking of this, Ye Yun lowered her head, a sharp look flashed in her eyes. She put the wine glass on the table, then stood up and walked out calmly.
Outside the waterside pavilion, the moon was full, and the soft moonlight poured down. Stars fell on Fu Qimo's long figure. He stood quietly beside the red fence, like an immortal admiring alone under the moon, as if in a dream. .
A few steps away, Ye Yun stood with his hands behind his hands, looking at the scene in front of him. He suddenly remembered a poem he saw in his previous life, and whispered softly: "You stand on the bridge and look at the scenery. The people watching the scenery are here." Looking at you under the bridge, the bright moon decorates your windows, and you decorate other people's dreams."
Hearing the noise, Fu Qimo turned his head and saw the dissociated color in Ye Yun's eyes that had not faded, and frowned slightly.
Seeing that the other party was gradually showing signs of impatience, Ye Yun raised the corners of his mouth and walked over slowly.
"Deliberately waiting for me here, I can understand that Mr. Fu is showing favor to me?" The brisk words rang in his ears, with a tone that was half teasing and half probing. Fu Qimo's expression changed instantly. As if he was angry, he flicked his long sleeves and strode forward.
Seeing the people in front of him walking faster and faster, the smile on Ye Yun's lips gradually deepened, and deep meaning appeared in his eyes, which soon became clear again.
The bright moon was in the sky, and there was a rare beauty in front of him. Ye Yun felt more and more happy as he walked and watched.
On the other side, when Fu Qimo came to his senses, he realized that he had boarded the princess' carriage. He was the only one in the carriage, and Yu Wenyun had not returned yet.
Fu Qimo leaned against the wall of the car. In the empty car, the sound of a strong heartbeat was particularly clear. He looked stunned and stretched out his hand to touch the heart that had been unable to calm down for a long time. His eyes were blank.
Until now, he still couldn't figure out why he did that just now, and why he panicked when he heard Yu Wenyun's joke, so much so that he ran away regardless of his appearance, trying to avoid her questioning.
There were too many questions swirling in his mind. Fu Qimo couldn't figure it out, and he didn't dare to think it through. He was vaguely repelled... It seemed that the answer would make him subvert his past. He didn't want that, absolutely not!
When Ye Yun returned to the car, Fu Qimo returned to his usual appearance, with disgust between his brows and a look of neither happiness nor indifference on his face.
Ye Yun glanced strangely at Fu Qimo, who was changing his face like a magic trick. Without saying anything, he found a comfortable position to sit down, closed his eyes and rested his mind.
The driver who drove Ye Yun was an old coachman who was very skilled. The carriage moved quickly and steadily. Even if he leaned against the wall of the carriage, he would not notice any discomfort.
The Princess Mansion is located at the foot of the palace, only a few blocks away from the main street, but it is clearly separated. Ye Yun opened the curtains and looked in the direction of the main street. The lights were bright. You can imagine how prosperous the street is today. Looking back here , except for the sound of horse hooves on the bluestone, it was eerily quiet.
Not long after, the carriage stopped at the door of the princess's house. Ye Yun lowered the curtains and got out of the carriage with Fu Qimo one after the other. Before the two of them started, the coachman had jumped on the carriage again, drove the reins, and drove the carriage to the back door. direction.
When the soldiers stationed in front of the mansion saw Ye Yun coming back, they leaned over and clasped their fists and said, "Princess!"
Ye Yun nodded and went in first, followed by Fu Qimo.
Along the way, Ye Yun walked in front and Fu Qimo followed. They had a tacit understanding with each other and neither of them spoke.
Fu Qimo didn't speak because he was in a complicated mood and didn't know what to say, while Ye Yun simply had something on his mind and had no time to pay attention to him.
When the two of them arrived at the intersection in the back garden in silence, Fu Qimo stopped. He looked at the person who continued to walk forward without looking back. He twitched the corner of his mouth, said nothing in the end, and raised his foot to walk. Go on the other hand.
When Ye Yun returned to Fengyang Pavilion, Bai Zhi and the others had not returned yet. After thinking for a while, Ye Yun called Long San out.
"Long San, please immediately take a few people to the side room next to Leng Palace to help me pick up two people."
"I don't know who it is."
"A maid and a child."
"yes!"
After Long San left, Ye Yun glanced at the sky outside and said to the door, "Here comes someone."
After saying this, a maid came in from outside the door and said, "I wonder what the princess has ordered."
"Go and prepare some snacks and sake. I'm going to see an old friend."
"yes."
The maid left in response. After a while, the maid came in carrying a food box and took the food box from the maid's hand. Ye Yun said, "Go down and rest" and left Fengyang Pavilion alone.
After coming out of Fengyang Pavilion, Ye Yun went all the way to the west, going straight to a courtyard on the west side. When the soldiers guarding the courtyard saw someone approaching, they immediately took out their sabers and said coldly: "Who is there, come out!"
"This is me." Ye Yun came out from the corner carrying a food box.
The soldiers guarding the entrance of the courtyard immediately knelt down on one knee, cupped their hands and said, "General, I will see the eldest princess!"
"Get up and open the door. I want to go in."
"yes!"
