Chapter 17 Chapter Sixteen
It has been more than half a year since we parted on Yingzhou Island, from winter to summer, and Jing only contacted Xiaoyao once, and it was because he gave Zhuanxu the nine pots of green plum wine as a thank you gift to Zhuanxu for his hospitality.Although Zhuanxu didn't know which item was given to Xiaoyao, he also guessed that Jing's gift was definitely not all for him.After receiving the gift, he called Xiaoyao over and said, "I don't understand your charades, so pick them out yourself."
Xiaoyao picked out nine pots of green plum wine, one color white jade bottle, painted with a crimson peach blossom, it was a very common white jade peach vase, but Xiaoyao felt that there was a little warmth rolling between her forehead.
Nine bottles of wine followed Xiaoyao from Mingser Hall in Wushen Mountain to Chaoyun Hall in Xuanyuan Mountain.
Xiaoyao drank green plum wine slowly, and only drank the last bottle left, she was reluctant to drink any more, kept it all the time, and carefully put away the eight empty wine bottles.
She really wanted to drink the last bottle, but she wanted to drink this bottle after Jing sent a new one.
In the dead of night, Xiaoyao would lie on the couch and play with the wine bottle. The three-inch-high wine bottle would be placed in the palm of her hand and she would hold it tightly.Sometimes, Xiaoyao would laugh, and sometimes, Xiaoyao felt sad for herself.
She waited for half a year, but there was no news from Jing.
One night, she played with nine jade vases on the couch, turned them over and over again, the nine jade vases were lying on the white silk, and the nine branches of peach blossoms were in full bloom, Xiaoyao suddenly thought of Yushan, where she waited for her mother For seventy years, nothing came in the end.In this life, she no longer wants to wait for anyone.
Xiao Yao opened the last bottle of green plum wine, instead of just drinking one or two sips at a time as before, she kept drinking it.But the three-inch high bottle, Xiao Yao finished drinking it in a short while.Xiao Yao put away the nine jade vases and never took them out to play with.
Xiaoyao began to spend more time refining poisons. When she couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, she fiddled with poisons on the couch, thinking about how to make them better.It's prettier, not more poisonous.
In her mind, Emperor Yan, who is respected as the ancestor of medicine by the world, left behind her. She can browse through the medical books collected by Gao Xin and Xuanyuan. Xiaoyao doesn't doubt the toxicity of the poison she made. Now she likes to make good-looking poisons.Seeing the phoenix flower, she pondered for a few days, and spent a few more days and nights to make a lifelike little phoenix flower, with bright colors and charming fragrance.Seeing the sunset glow, she made bright and golden poisonous incense crumbs, as if stepping down the twinkling sunset glow from the sky.
Each dose of poison is a thought, a mood of hers. She makes them, sees them in full bloom in her hands, and then carefully packs them and sends them out.
Xiao Yao wondered how Xiang Liu would feel when she received these poisons, and whether she would call her a pervert.
Xiaoyao put the prepared poison in a jade box and sealed it, went to the car dealership belonging to the Tu Shan family, handed the box to them, and asked, "How much does it cost to send it to the prostitution house on Xihuai Street in Qingshui Town? "
The boss said: "If the girl is referring to Qingshui Town, it is at the easternmost point of Xuanyuan Kingdom, almost reaching the sea."
Xiao Yao said: "That's why I specially found Tu Shan's car dealership, and handed it over to other car dealerships to deliver the goods. It's cheaper, but I don't worry."
The boss laughed, "The girl has found the right place."
The boss quoted a price, Xiaoyao didn't counter the price, and paid the money happily, anyway, she didn't earn it, so I don't feel bad.
This is the way Xiaoyao came up with to deal with Xiangliu. There are car dealerships run by Tu Shan's family all over the world. As long as Xiaoyao has money, he can send everything to Qingshui Town.
Xiaoyao sent poison to Xiangliu every three or four months, and the last time the poison was sent from Gao Xin.I don't know if Xiang Liu received it.I should have received it, otherwise, with that person's petty temper, no matter how busy he is, he would have to find time to trouble her.
Xiaoyao walked out of the carriageway and saw Fangfeng Bei again, she couldn't help but tried to use Gu insects to sense again, but there was still no response.
Fangfeng Bei walked over with a smile, "Do you want to deliver the goods?"
Xiaoyao looked at him, and he asked, "Do you still know me?"
Xiao Yao left: "You better not approach me, I want to poison you as soon as I see you."
Fangfeng Bei followed her, "Is that your friend who annoys you?"
Did Xiang Liu provoke her?Of course not, but he was more annoying to her.
Xiao Yao asked: "Why are you following me?" When we met in the garden that day, he probably didn't know who she was, but now, he should already know her identity.
"I'm bored, and I think you're bored too. It's better for two to be bored than one to be bored."
That night, Xiaoyao still had a fresh memory of the pressure of death in front of his arrow, and sneered, "What are you doing in Xuanyuan City? You didn't come here to be bored, did you?"
Fangfeng Bei said with a smile: "The things I do in Xuanyuan City are not visible, usually I am busy at night, and I am really bored during the day."
Xiaoyao couldn't help laughing, this person's temperament was completely opposite to his sister's, and she was a rascal, frankly, "I heard that everyone in your family is very good at archery."
"good."
"Who is better at archery, you or your sister?"
"she."
"How good is it?"
"Would you like to see my archery skills?"
Xiao Yao said casually, "Okay!"
"Follow me!"
Fangfeng Bei returned to his residence, ordered someone to lead two celestial horses, and led Xiaoyao out of Xuanyuan City, to Dunwu Mountain.
Fangfeng Bei asked, "What do you want me to shoot?"
Xiaoyao squinted her eyes for a while, and pointed to the dodder clinging to the pine tree on the opposite cliff and swaying in the wind, "The dodder blooms in summer and autumn, and there should be small yellow flowers now, let's shoot a flower."
Fangfeng Bei took the bow and arrow from the back of Tianma, bent the bow, nocked the arrow, drew the string, and shot it.
Xiao Yao laughed, "I don't know if I hit it or not."
Fangfeng Bei stretched out his hand, and the arrow flew back to his hand from the opposite cliff, Fangfeng Bei showed it to her, there was a little yellow on the front of the arrow, obviously it hit a flower.
Xiao Yao had no choice but to praise: "Sure enough, good archery skills."
"Want to learn?"
"Can this also teach people?"
"What you want to learn now is the posture of archery, not the mental method of cultivation. Anyone can teach you, but I teach it, which is naturally the best."
"Okay!" Xiaoyao couldn't figure out what Fangfeng Bei wanted to do, but as he said, it was boring anyway, let's see what he wanted to do.
Fangfeng Bei chose an uncle who was not too far away from them, "Let's use it as a target." He handed the bow to Xiaoyao, and Xiaoyao imitated his action just now, holding the bow.
Fangfeng Bei said: "That's right, it looks a little bit. The body should be upright, don't shrink your neck, don't show your arms, don't bend over, don't lean forward, don't lean back, and don't hold your chest out." He instructed Xiaoyao to adjust the subtle postures, "Your strength is weak, so it's better to use four fingers to draw the bow. The thumb naturally bends to point to the palm, the index finger rests under the jaw, and the bowstring aligns with the nose, mouth, and jaw..."
He handed an arrow to Xiaoyao, Xiaoyao shot it, the arrow flew obliquely and fell halfway.
He passed another arrow, which was still the same as last time.
After shooting several arrows in a row, Xiaoyao was much stronger than the previous two arrows, but none of them came close to the big tree.
Xiao Yao sighed, "It's really easy to look at, but hard to do."
Fangfeng Bei stood behind Xiaoyao, held Xiaoyao's hand, led Xiaoyao's hand, and guided Xiaoyao to follow his movements, "Stand straight, use force calmly, draw the bow skillfully, set the arrow calmly, push forward and backward Go, the bow is full!" Following the word "cheng", the arrow flew out and was firmly nailed into the tree trunk.
"What does it feel like?"
"I didn't think about anything, my eyes didn't stare at the target, I just focused on the action of drawing the bow and shooting the arrow."
"Good understanding."
Xiaoyao smiled wryly, it wasn't that she wanted to realize it, but that at that moment, her body's reaction was like when Xiang Liu approached her, she almost felt that he would bite her on the neck, and her mind went blank.But if Xiangliu is really Xiangliu, even if he has a cooperation agreement with Fangfengjia, Fangfengjia will never pass on the archery handed down in his family to a nine-headed monster.
Fangfeng Bei led Xiaoyao to draw the bow again, "Keep this feeling, continue."
Xiaoyao shot an arrow by herself, although she missed the big tree, she was already in front of the big tree.Xiaoyao was really interested, and immediately shot another arrow, nailing it into the big tree.Xiao Yao couldn't believe it, "Did I hit it?"
Fangfeng Bei smiled, Xiaoyao immediately took an arrow and shot it imitating the feeling just now, but unexpectedly it fell in mid-air just like the first arrow.Fangfeng Bei said, "You care about gains and losses."
Xiaoyao didn't believe it, and wanted to try again, but Fangfeng Bei stopped her, "That's it for today."
Xiaoyao was puzzled, "I thought I needed to practice more."
"If you practice more, you will only get worse and worse, and that wrong feeling will be consolidated in your heart because of practicing over and over again. Believe me, everything is as good as it gets."
Xiaoyao put down her bow, "If you become a master, all the apprentices will like you."
Fangfeng Bei laughed, "People are different, my method is only suitable for smart people."
"Thank you for the compliment."
Fangfeng Bei turned onto the Pegasus, and the two rode the Pegasus down the mountain slowly.
Xiao Yao said: "I see that your spiritual strength is much higher than Yi Ying's. How can it be possible that your archery skills are worse than hers?"
Fangfeng Bei laughed and said: "Many people think that archery requires amazing arm strength, but it's not true. Archery is a skill, and it's good to use four or two strokes of a thousand catties. Specially forged bows and arrows can penetrate the defense of condensed spiritual power. Even a person without spiritual power, as long as If you use the right method, you can also shoot people with much higher spiritual power than him. My spiritual power is much higher than that of my younger sister, but my archery skills are indeed inferior to hers."
Xiaoyao stared at Fangfeng Bei, her heart fluttered, her spiritual power was low, so she only wanted to protect herself, and she gave up the idea of taking the initiative to attack, but if what Fangfeng Bei said was true, then within a certain distance, she could also take the initiative to attack of.If she encounters something like Yu Jiang's assassination of Zhuan Xu last time, all she can do is stop it with her own body.
Fangfeng Bei didn't seem to feel that what he said would affect Xiaoyao at all, he asked Xiaoyao with a smile, "Are you interested in learning archery with me?"
"Have."
Fangfeng Bei said: "You accompany me to relieve boredom, and I will teach you."
Xiao Yao replied, "Okay."
Fangfeng Bei sent Xiaoyao to Zhuanxu's mansion, and said with a smile, "See you tomorrow."
Xiaoyao watched him gallop the Pegasus horse across the long street like a swinger.
Xiaoyao's life suddenly becomes very busy. She has to refine poison, practice archery, and when Fangfeng Bei is free, she has to learn archery from Fangfeng Bei and have fun with Fangfeng Bei.
After Xiaoyao got together with Fangfeng Bei, she realized what eating, drinking, and merrymaking are. She felt that she had rediscovered Xuanyuan City. There were many places hidden in the alleys. Not to mention her, even her cousins had never heard of it. But Fang Feng Bei knows.
Like an old horse who knows the way, he takes Xiaoyao to eat, drink and have fun.
The jewelry shop opened by the dwarves in Zhourao State may be because they are small and have small fingers, so the jewelry they make is extraordinarily exquisite. They can carve hundreds of roses from a piece of ordinary ruby; Carve the portrait of a couple into it, it is lifelike, just like seeing a real person.Xiao Yao was amazed, and chose a few pieces of jewelry for Anian and Princess Jing'an.
In the restaurant of the giant Kuafu’s family, the bowls for eating are like the bowls used by Xiaoyao. At first, Xiaoyao never believed that she could finish the bowl, but after taking a bite, she immediately ate the whole bowl of rice one mouthful after another. .She moaned and yelled that she was strangled to death, but she didn't regret being strangled to death.
Xiaoyao is not uncommon for the powder shop opened by the flower demon, but a drop of condensed floral dew can make people's body fragrant for a month. This concoction method can concoct a unique fragrance in this world, even Xiaoyao, who is used to being a man, can't help but sink into it, trying various fragrances, and couldn't help but buy more than a dozen kinds of flower fragrances.
Fangfeng Bei doesn't have time every day, every five or six days, he will ask Xiaoyao to accompany him for a day, just enough for Xiaoyao to consolidate the archery skills she learned last time.At one point he even disappeared for more than three months before reappearing.
Xiaoyao didn't ask him where he went, and he didn't explain.Xiaoyao and he both understand that their teaching and study is only a very short-lived relationship, which will end at any time due to an accident.
But in the eyes of outsiders, Fangfeng Bei and Xiaoyao are very close, and because of teaching archery, there is a vague intimacy between Xiaoyao and him.
Fangfeng Bei is a very casual person, sometimes he comes to look for Xiaoyao, if Xiaoyao goes to Yunfeng again, he will go directly to Xuanyuan Mountain and ask the guards to pass it on, Xiaoyao doesn't feel the need to cover up, the two of them come and go , the whole Xuanyuan City knew that Gao Xin's great princess and the second son of the Fangfeng family had a good relationship.
Even Zhuanxu teased Xiaoyao, "I finally got you back, and I want to keep you by my side for a few more years. Don't be seduced by that rascal from Fangfeng's family and run away."
Xiao Yao stuck out her tongue with a smile, "As long as he still has a chance to shoot you, I won't run away with him."
Before I knew it, more than a year had passed.
Xiaoyao was a little confused, she didn't know what Fangfeng Bei wanted to do.I thought that he taught her archery was just an excuse to pick her up. I thought he took her around to play, it was just a means to open the door of a woman's heart.However, he teaches very seriously, so that every time Xiaoyao learns archery, he really respects him as a teacher.Eating, drinking and having fun with him is more like two people enjoying life.Two people who don't care about anything, don't mind trying anything, but don't want anything, make a companion, looking for a little bit of fun in the bustling world of mortals.Many things, one person is completely different from two people, such as eating, no matter how delicious the food is, it will lose its taste if eaten alone.Xiaoyao believed that Fangfeng Bei felt the same way, so he dug up all the interesting things he knew without hesitation, and took Xiaoyao to experience them together.
Sometimes Xiaoyao feels that Fangfeng Bei is like a child who has been lonely for a long time. He has played with countless toys and has long been bored. Now that he has finally got a playmate, he can't help but can't wait to take his playmate to play together, wanting to share everything with him.It seems to be playful, but it is actually the most sincere.
Gradually, Xiaoyao sincerely accompanied him to eat, drink and have fun, as long as Fang Fangfeng Bei didn't point his bow at Zhuanxu, he was not her enemy.
On this day, in the morning, Fangfeng Bei taught Xiaoyao how to practice archery, at noon, the two of them went to the singing and dancing studio for dinner and sleep, and in the afternoon, Fangfeng Bei took Xiaoyao to the underground casino run by the Lirong people.Legend has it that the ancient ancestors of the Lirong people were two-headed dog monsters. I don't know if it was because of this or the reason, every man who entered the underground casino had to wear a dog-head mask, and women were free to wear it.Xiaoyao saw Fangfeng Bei put on the dog-head mask and turned into a dog-headed person, laughing so hard that her stomach hurts.Xiaoyao had laughed enough, she also put on the dog-head mask, raised two paws, and barked at Fangfeng Bei.Fangfeng Bei smiled, "If you are beaten up and thrown out by the Lirong people, don't blame me for not reminding you."
After entering the dungeon, there were dog-headed human bodies everywhere, making those women without masks extraordinarily enchanting, Xiaoyao smiled again.
Because everyone has lost their face, they can also be shameless, everything becomes extraordinarily naked, fragrant to lewd, stimulating to bloody.Xiaoyao and Fangfeng Bei walked through it, both cloudless and breezy.
Fangfeng Bei took Xiaoyao to gamble first, Xiaoyao had lived in the casino for five years, relying on this to make a living, now he is back to his old job, and keeps winning, Fangfeng Bei also keeps winning, but both of them know the rules, enough is enough.
They went to watch the slaves' deathmatch, and they just used the money they won to bet, the two sides in the fight were endlessly deadly, among a bunch of kobolds shouting frantically, Xiaoyao remained calm, and Fangfeng Bei didn't change his face either.
The dead side was bloody and bloody, and the surviving side was not happy, sitting in the corner with a pair of lifeless eyes.
This time Xiaoyao lost the bet, Fangfeng Bei won the bet.
Xiao Yao was not convinced, "It's just a fluke."
Fangfeng Bei said: "Then bet again, you can choose whatever you want to bet on."
"Okay, let's continue to bet on this slave."
"Do you still want to watch him fight to the death tomorrow?"
"No. Have you seen his eyes? They are eyes of despair. Let's bet who can give him hope in an instant."
Fangfeng Bei laughed softly, "It's very interesting, since you just lost, I'll let you go first."
Xiaoyao Xieou went over, the slave vigilantly held Xiaoyao's hand, trying to break it, but years of fighting made him immediately understand that these hands had weak spiritual power and couldn't kill anyone, and the instinct of the beast let him know that Xiaoyao Yao has no hostility.He hesitated for a moment, then let Xiaoyao go.
The master of the slave wanted to drive Xiaoyao away, but Fangfeng Bei stretched out his long legs to block him, and threw him the money he just won from the death fight.The master of the slave picked up the purse and obediently hid aside.
With her back to them, Xiaoyao took off the dog mask, smiled at the slave, hugged him tightly, and whispered in his ear: "There is always a little beauty in this world, which is worth living for you." The dog-headed mask walked back, and the blood-stained slave just looked at her blankly, as if she didn't understand what happened at all.
Fangfeng Bei bent down, his body trembled slightly, his laughter couldn't be suppressed.
Xiao Yao said angrily, "It's your turn."
Fangfeng Bei walked over, bent down, and whispered a word to the slave.The slave's eyes suddenly glowed with a strange look, as if excited, but also as if he didn't believe it, he stared eagerly at Fangfeng Bei, Fangfeng Bei just nodded solemnly and walked back.But the slave seemed to be a different person. When the slave owner took him away, his steps were extraordinarily firm.
Fangfeng Bei smiled and said, "I won."
Xiaoyao can't figure it out, even if Fangfeng Bei promises to the slave that he will buy him back and give him a free life, this slave whose heart has been crushed by the darkness will never believe it, and it is obvious that Fangfeng Bei made such a promise.
Xiao Yao murmured: "You cheated, you must know him. You know him, no wonder you bet on him."
"I saw him for the first time tonight."
"What exactly did you say to him?" Xiao Yao couldn't think of anything.
When the two arrived at the exit of the underground casino, Fangfeng Bei took off the dog-head mask, Xiao Yao also took off the dog-head mask, and returned it to the waiter in the casino.
After walking out of the casino, it was already late at night, Xiao Yao couldn't help taking a deep breath of fresh air that belonged to the world.
She said to Fangfeng Bei: "I really want to know what you said to him."
Fangfeng Bei smiled and said, "If you give me a hug too, I'll tell you. Beauty tricks won't work for him, but they will work for me."
Xiaoyao stomped her feet, and said with some embarrassment: "Don't talk about pulling down!"
She walked away angrily, Fangfeng Bei followed behind her, "Okay, I'll tell you."
"I don't want to hear it anymore!"
"Really stop listening?"
"Don't listen!"
Fangfeng Bei grabbed her and coaxed her in a good manner, "But I just want to tell you, I beg you to listen."
Xiao Yao tightly suppressed the smile on her lips, "Why do you beg?"
"Let me give you a hug? I'm willing to trick you."
Xiaoyao laughed angrily and pushed him away, "Fangfeng Bei, you're playing tricks on me!"
Fangfeng Bei laughed softly, grabbed Xiaoyao's arm, and refused to let her go, "I told him that I was also a slave in the death fight field, and I survived."
Xiaoyao stopped in her tracks and glared at Fangfeng Bei angrily, "You lied to him!"
Fangfeng Bei smiled lightly, "I hope Ben is a liar."
Xiaoyao's anger gradually dissipated, and she shook her head suddenly, "Although he is locked in a cage, he is a very smart beast. He won't believe what you say so easily. You must have done something else."
"I speak the special language of the slaves in the deathmatch."
Xiaoyao was surprised, "I heard that even slave owners don't understand, how could you?"
Fangfeng Bei smiled, "Maybe I was really a slave in the death match."
Xiaoyao stared blankly at him for a while, then murmured, "Who are you?"
"Who do you want me to be?"
Xiaoyao put one hand on her heart, slowly stretched out the other hand, and placed it on Fangfeng Bei's heart, his heart was beating at the same rhythm as hers.
Xiaoyao was at a loss, she thought he was Xiang Liu, Xiang Liu had nine heads, it was said that he had nine faces, and eighty-one incarnations, maybe one of them was exactly the same as Fangfeng Bei, but Fangfeng Bei and Xiang Liu were too different up.
He took her to buy makeup, powder and fragrance, and lazily nestled on the couch, watching her choose.Once a woman sinks in, she will completely forget the time. Xiaoyao stayed in that small shop for a day, experimenting with various fragrances.After smelling it, her nose was numb, and she could not make up her mind to show it to him and ask his opinion. He patiently helped her smell it one by one and gave her advice.
When we eat together, Xiaoyao likes to eat the innermost layer of shortbread, he eats the outer part and gives her the innermost layer.When eating barbecue, she likes the tender piece of meat above the ribs near the neck with sebum, and every time he would cut that piece of meat with the browned skin for her.
When he rode his horse on the path in the mountains, he always let her go in front, because when the people in front passed by, the overgrown branches would often bounce and hit the people behind.
How could Xiang Liu talk to her tenderly, give way to her considerately, and accompany her patiently?Only a prodigal like Fangfeng Bei can understand a woman's mind so well.
The days have passed, even though she still has that inexplicable feeling, Xiaoyao still believes that Fangfeng Bei is Fangfeng Bei, but now...she thinks he is Xiangliu again, there is no reason, she can't explain it, she just thinks he is.
She said to Fangfeng Bei: "Our hearts beat together." She looked up at Fangfeng Bei, waiting for Fangfeng Bei to give her an explanation.
Fangfeng Bei covered her palm with his hand, and said with a smile: "Yeah, it seems like they are really dancing together."
This rascal!Xiaoyao was helpless, gnashed her teeth again, and waited for Fangfeng Bei, who looked at her with a smile.
Dim lights enveloped their figures quietly.
A carriage stopped beside them, the curtain was pulled open, Fangfeng Yiying called out in surprise: "Second brother?"
Fangfeng Bei was very calm, and said with a smile, "Little sister, long time no see."
Xiaoyao's body was a little stiff, and she could feel someone behind her watching her.
Xiaoyao didn't know what to feel. She had been learning archery with Fangfeng Bei for 16 months. With Tu Shan's strength and her identity with Fangfeng Bei, Jing should have heard about her and Fangfeng Bei long ago. .In other words, at the beginning, when she didn't understand Fangfeng Bei's casual wandering, she didn't believe that Fangfeng Bei would really teach her archery, and she didn't plan to really learn from him. Xiaoyao didn't resist Fangfeng Bei's approach, It's just because she clearly knew that the news that she and Fangfeng Bei got together would fly into the deep houses of every aristocratic family.Of course Jing would hear it too, and Xiaoyao just wanted him to hear it.Xiaoyao didn't understand why she wanted to do this, and she didn't bother to think about it, anyway, she felt happy doing it, so she did it.
Later, Xiaoyao found out that she had misunderstood Fangfeng Bei, Fangfeng Bei was really teaching her archery, and she began to study hard.Gradually, the original purpose no longer matters.But Xiaoyao was still vaguely waiting for Jing's reaction, but after sixteen months, she really gave up waiting, she just thought she was a little ridiculous.Fortunately, fortunately, Fangfeng Bei took her by surprise, otherwise it would not only be ridiculous, but pathetic.
However, just when she had forgotten, he suddenly appeared again, bringing his fiancee with him!
Fangfeng Yiying got out of the car, Tu Shanjing also got out of the car, Fangfeng Bei greeted with a smile, "You must be Mr. Qingqiu, my famous future brother-in-law, nice to meet you."
Fangfeng Yiying was very helpless, and said to Jing: "This is my second brother."
Jing didn't speak for a while, as someone who was lucky enough to have seen Xiang Liu's "true face", he was probably the same as Xiaoyao when he saw Fangfeng Bei for the first time. After a while, he saluted and said politely, "Second brother is good."
Fangfeng Bei smiled and said, "Let me introduce you, this is..."
Fangfeng Yiying looked displeased and interrupted him, "Second Brother, you don't need to introduce your friends to us." Yiying only saw Xiaoyao in costume once at the worship ceremony, and Xiaoyao was dressed in ordinary Xuanyuan girl tonight. clothes, standing sideways, with his head bowed.Yiying also decided that the woman who was with Bei late at night must not be a serious woman, she didn't even bother to pay attention, so she didn't recognize it at all.
Fangfeng Bei smiled, and really didn't mention Xiaoyao.
Yi Ying asked: "Second brother, where do you live? The Tu Shan clan has a garden here, and Second brother can live with us."
Fangfeng Bei said, "No need."
Jing, who seldom spoke, suddenly said: "Yiying has been missing you very much, the garden is very big, and it is convenient to enter and exit, and I would like to invite my second brother to show you."
Yiying glanced at Jing in surprise, but was very happy. After all, it was her face that Jing entertained her family well.
Bei laughed and said, "It's hard to turn down the kindness, but I won't bother you tonight. I want to send my friend back. I'll move tomorrow."
Jing said: "Where is the second brother going? Anyway, the carriage is very spacious and can take you off."
Bei said: "Don't bother, we just sat in the casino for a few hours, now we want to move."
"Let's go!" Bei greeted Xiaoyao.
Xiao Yao followed him without hesitation and left.From beginning to end, she didn't look at Jing.
Jing stared at her back.
Yi Ying looked at her brother and sighed, "It is rumored that he and Princess Gao Xin have gotten close this year. I thought he met someone who really moved his heart, so he restrained his temper. I didn't expect it to be the same."
Jing didn't speak, and got into the car silently.Closing his eyes, what appeared in front of his eyes was the scene of Xiaoyao and Bei looking at each other just now, there was an inexplicable subtlety floating between the two.
Xiaoyao returns to Zhuanxu's mansion, and hurriedly looks for Zhuanxu, "Zhuanxu, Zhuanxu." Pushing open the door, she unexpectedly sees Anian and Haitang.
Xiaoyao was stunned for a moment, then looked at Zhuanxu.
Zhuan Xu smiled and said, "A Nian came to Xuanyuan City to play."
Xiaoyao asked: "She escaped?" The dignified King Gaoxin came to Xuanyuan City, if she didn't come secretly, no matter what, someone should report to the Yellow Emperor.
Zhuanxu smiled helplessly, "But I think Master should know."
Xiaoyao also felt that her father must know, if not for his acquiescence, and with Haitang's courage, she would not have dared to run away with Anian. The father is a weirdo, he has always indulged his daughters outside.Take her and Fangfeng Bei's matter as an example, it's nothing in Xuanyuan, Huang Di naturally doesn't care about it, but Emperor Jun doesn't care about it either, he just asked Fangfeng Bei lightly in his letter to Xiaoyao.
Anian asked Zhuanxu: "Brother, are you unhappy with my coming?"
Zhuan Xu said gently: "Of course not, I am very happy that you came to see me and Xiaoyao."
Ah Nian gave Xiao Yao a disdainful look, "I just came to see my brother."
Zhuanxu asked Xiaoyao: "You were in a hurry just now, what happened?"
"I just ran into... Tu Shanjing and Fangfeng Yiying on the street."
"Well, they will be here in the afternoon. It is estimated that in a few days, Feng Leong and Xin Yue will also come."
"Why are they here? What happened?"
Zhuanxu said: "Xiaoyao, this is Xuanyuan City! The capital of Xuanyuan Kingdom! Government orders related to most of the Great Wilderness are promulgated from this city. Whether it is Chishui, Tushan, or Shennong and Fangfeng, the fate of their families They are all closely related to the decrees of this city. The important children of each family will come to Xuanyuan City to live for a period of time every few years. If they make good friends, they will naturally make appointments to come together."
Xiaoyao remained silent, as if disappointed, Zhuanxu asked, "What's wrong?"
Xiaoyao shook her head, "I'm going to wash and sleep."
Zhuan Xu took Anian out of the house, and said to Anian, "I'll take you to your room. You lived here when you were in Xuanyuan City. Since you came here secretly, when others ask, you can say yes." Xiaoyao's friend, but I have to tell Grandpa, if he wants to see you, I will take you to meet Grandpa again."
Ah Nian obediently agreed, but asked with some dissatisfaction: "Why can't you say that you are brother's friend? Why do you say that you are Xiao Yao's friend?"
"Because my brother's abilities are limited now, it's dangerous to be my brother's friend, but it's safer to be your sister's friend."
Ah Nian has always been confused about small things but shrewd about big things, and she immediately realized a lot from Zhuan Xu's words. She bit her lip and said to Zhuan Xu, "Brother, don't worry, I know this is not Gao Xin, I won't give it to you. Trouble."
Xiao Yao, who was walking in front, burst out laughing, and Anian was ashamed, "Don't you believe it?"
Xiaoyao had already arrived at her room, she walked in, turned around and said to Anian: "I, wait, see, wait." Before Anian got angry, she closed the door with a bang.
Zhuan Xu hurriedly comforted Anian, "I know that Anian is the most sensible, don't be fussy like your sister."
Anian laughed, and followed Zhuanxu to her own room.
On the second day, Xiaoyao woke up early, left a message for Zhuanxu, and then returned to Chaoyun Peak.
According to the etiquette, based on the friendship between Jing and Zhuanxu, after Jing arrived in Xuanyuan City, he should come to visit Zhuanxu. Xiaoyao didn't know when he would come, but she really didn't want to wait any longer. , that feeling is too uncomfortable.So she chose not to wait any longer and fled back to Chaoyun Peak. Whether or when he will come has nothing to do with her.
Xiaoyao practiced archery in the mulberry forest. After practicing for half a day, she was sweating all over before she put away her bow and arrow.
"You are restless today." Huangdi's voice came.
The Yellow Emperor leaned on a cane and stood outside the mulberry forest.Xiaoyao walked over and helped Huangdi to sit on the mulberry couch, she sat next to Huangdi in a normal manner, picked up a plate of ice mulberries, and ate bunches of them.It is estimated that in the entire Great Wilderness, she is the only one who dares to sit on an equal footing with the Yellow Emperor.
Huang Di said, "Let me see your hand."
Xiaoyao stretched out her hand, and Huang Di touched her fingers. The place where she drew the bow was already covered with thick calluses, "When a girl practiced arrows, she would wear special gloves for fear of having calluses. Why don't you go to a craftsman?" Made to order?"
Xiaoyao laughed, "My purpose is different from theirs. They are for hunting and playing in autumn, and I am for killing people. Could it be that the enemy will wait for me to put on gloves before attacking?"
Huangdi let go of Xiaoyao's hand, "Fangfeng Bei can't teach you the archery skills of the Fangfeng family. I'll find you a master later. Your spiritual power is low, and you need to find a master with great skills for bows and arrows." It is specially made for you, but there is no rush, I will send someone to hire a casting master when you have a little success in archery."
Xiao Yao said nonchalantly, "Gao Xin lacks a good foundry master, so I will ask my father to find a foundry master to do it for me."
Huang Di looked at Xiao Yao's winking eyes, and asked lightly, "How does your father treat you?"
Xiaoyao's eyes narrowed into crescent moons happily, "There can be no better father than him."
Huang Di looked at Sang Lin, with Shaohao's shrewdness, it is impossible not to see Xiao Yao... Does he have any plans?The Yellow Emperor said slowly: "He is the king of a country, don't regard him as a simple father. Since he was born in the emperor's family, don't expect any pure feelings, and you can only rely on yourself in everything."
Xiao Yao sighed, "Not every king is as majestic as you."
Huang Di didn't care about the ridicule in Xiao Yao's words, and suddenly said: "Choose a husband carefully, before I die, I can guarantee you to marry any man you want to marry." He tried his best to arrange for her happiness.
Huang Di's topic was too jumpy, Xiao Yao was stunned, after a while, a sour and astringent feeling suddenly surged in her heart.No matter how much she blames him, he is her grandfather after all.
Xiaoyao suppressed those complicated feelings, and asked with a playful smile: "Is it okay to be anyone? Is it okay if there is a marriage contract? Is it okay if it is your enemy?"
Huangdi looked at Xiaoyao, "What kind of man do you want?" Maybe because Huangdi was born in an ordinary family and had no education from aristocratic family, when he spoke, he was far more direct and sharp than Jundi.
If it was so straightforward, other women would have blushed a long time ago, but Xiaoyao didn't twitch in the slightest.This time someone asked her this question, and she thought about it seriously for a while, "I started pretending to be a man before I was an adult, and I didn't know what I was busy with when I was a young girl, I was probably busy living. Maybe I spend too much time alone, I have always wanted to find someone to accompany me, either to marry someone, or to live together, to share suffering and happiness, even if it is noisy, at least I don’t have to talk to myself, but I am very timid, Think about it, my grandfather, father, and mother could abandon me for one reason or another, but who would I believe would not abandon me? I am with the helpless old man, I adopt orphans, they need I won’t abandon me.” Xiaoyao chuckled, “People think I’m kind-hearted, but in fact, it’s just because I’m cowardly, I’m with the weak, I feel like I’m in control of everything, I’m relied on, I won’t be given up, I feel at ease."
Huang Di leaned on the mulberry couch, looking at Xiao Yao thoughtfully.
Xiao Yao said: "After recovering my daughter, I always felt that getting married was far away, and I didn't think about it carefully, but I know that I am afraid of a man like you. In your hearts, there will always be a more important choice than a woman."
Huang Di was expressionless, and said flatly: "We are not suitable to be husbands."
Xiaoyao narrowed her eyes and said slowly: "I'm too afraid of having it and then losing it. If so, I'd rather never have it. Unless there is a man, no matter what choice he faces, I will be his first choice, no matter what If there is any reason, he will not give up on me, and I am willing to live with him for the rest of my life."
Huang Di said, "It's hard."
Xiaoyao laughed, "I know it's difficult, so I don't dare to think about any man at all, I'm afraid that if I try to save him, I won't be able to recover. Even..." Xiaoyao sighed, "Even if my mind is a little messed up, I will try my best to control it. "
Huang Di said: "You have already answered the question you asked me just now. If he chose another woman, it proves that you are not the first choice in his heart; if he chooses to be the enemy of me or Zhuanxu, it proves that you are他心中不是最重要，他可以放弃你。”
小夭觉得心里堵得慌，抱膝缩坐在桑木榻角，望着桑林发呆。
黄帝说：“其实你想得太多了，人有时候要学会糊涂，只要选对了人，相敬如宾、白头偕老并不难。”
小夭怔怔地思索着黄帝的话，半晌后，苦笑起来，“我明白外爷说的话，可是我已经是这样的性子了，如果真找不到那样一个男人，我宁愿不嫁，收养几个孤儿，日子照样过。”
黄帝什么都没说，只是凝望着桑林。
小夭在朝云峰待了五天，早上练箭，下午翻看医书炼制毒药，黄帝有空时，陪黄帝吃点东西说会儿话。
第六日清晨，颛顼带着阿念来拜见黄帝。
阿念对黄帝一场地恭敬，黄帝看到阿念有些意外，估计没想到阿念居然比小夭更像自己的女儿吧，也许因为这一点相像，黄帝对阿念多了一点亲切。
阿念立即感觉到了，居然半撒娇半央求地问黄帝：“我也好像要一个爷爷，陛下，我可以和颛顼哥哥一样叫您爷爷吗？”
黄帝笑起来，“只要你父王不介意，当然可以。”
阿念立即甜甜地叫：“爷爷。”
黄帝一时高兴，命侍者拿了一个嫘祖戴过的镯子赐给阿念。阿念听到是嫘祖娘娘的首饰，满面欢喜，立即爱惜地戴上。
小夭目瞪口呆，觉得阿念才是和黄帝有血缘关系的孙女。
颛顼朝她眨眼睛，现在知道阿念的厉害了吧？
小夭只能竖竖大拇指，她以前觉得阿念小事糊涂、大事精明，并不蠢笨，只是脾气冲、不会做人，可现在明白了，阿念不是不会做人，而是懒得浪费精力，对于影响不到她的人，阿念何必花心思花精力去讨好？其实仔细想想，阿念看似刁蛮，可实际上她从未逾越俊帝和颛顼的底线。
侍者进来奏报，“防风邶在山下求见王姬。”
小夭如释重负，对黄帝说：“我出去玩了，如果晚上回来得晚，你们不用等我吃饭。”
黄帝正在和阿念说话，不在意地说：“去吧。”
小夭随意地行了一礼就离开了。颛顼悄悄跟了出来。
小夭去牵天马，没有带弓箭。除了防风邶，只有黄帝和颛顼知道她在练习箭术，小夭也不想别人知道，当日特意买了两副一模一样的弓箭，一套在小夭手里，一套在防风邶哪里。纵使别人看到，也只当作是防风邶去山中射猎了。
颛顼拉住天马的缰绳，“你在故意躲着璟吗？”
"No."
“这几天，他每天都来找我，我想，他还没有闲到想天天见我。”
小夭说：“防风邶在等我，我要走了。”
颛顼踌躇了一瞬说：“防风邶是妾妾侍所出，防风家他做不了主，你和他玩可以，但……先不要和璟闹翻，我现在需要他。”颛顼低下了头，握着缰绳的手，因为用力，有些泛青。颛顼不是没有经历过屈辱，可这一瞬，他觉得最屈辱。
小夭握住了他的手，“哥哥，不要难受，这不是什么大不了的事，我会去见璟的，并不勉强，也不是为了你，我其实……其实在对他发脾气。”
颛顼依旧低着头，自嘲地说：“我可真是个好哥哥，连让你发点脾气都不行，要你上赶着去给男人低头。”他放开了缰绳，“去吧！”步履匆匆，向殿门走去。
小夭策天马离开，到轩辕山下时，看到防风邶，小夭只是挥了下手，防风邶策天马追上她，两人默契地向着敦物山飞驰。
到了地方，小夭取下弓箭，拉满弓射出，箭狠狠地钉入了树干。
防风邶笑道：“今日有火气啊！”
小夭不吭声，抽了一支箭，搭在弓上，慢慢地转身，对着防风邶的心口，拉开了弓，“你究竟是谁？”
防风邶无奈，“我现在住在未来的妹夫家里，和妹妹天天见面，你觉得我除了是防风邶，还能是谁？”
这会儿看他，又不像相柳了。小夭瞪着他，“如果日后让我发现你骗了我，我就在你心窝子射上一箭。”
防风邶笑起来，“你心里到底希望我是谁呢？那个让你想毒死的朋友？”
小夭指头一松，紧绷的弓弦弹出，箭贴着防风邶的头钉入了他身后的树干上。防风邶笑着鼓掌，“我这个师父教得不错！”
小夭抿着唇角笑。
防风邶说：“我看你心情不好，今日别练了！”
小夭抽箭，引弓对着树靶子，“今日心情不好，不练！明日心情太好，不练！人生多的是借口放纵自己，有了一必有二，我还学什么？”
防风邶轻叹一声，没再废话。他盯着小夭的动作，时不时指点一下小夭。
一直练到晌午，小夭收了弓箭。
两人和以前一样，打算回轩辕城，去歌舞坊吃饭睡觉。
两人并骥行过轩辕街头，虽然小夭戴了帷帽，可一看小夭骑的天马，再看到防风邶，几个心思活动的人猜到是王姬，不禁激动地叫了起来，行人听闻，纷纷让到路旁。
小夭这才发现早上心神不宁，牵错了天马，这匹天马的络头用黄金打造，有王族徽印，估计是专给黄帝拉车的天马。
此时，整条长街只有她和防风邶在移动，小夭觉得很怪异，却无可奈何，只能摆出傲慢王姬的样子，和防风邶行过长街。
防风邶低声说：“我虽然脸皮厚，可众目睽睽下带着你进歌舞坊，我还真有点不好意思。”
小夭笑，“说明你脸皮还不够厚，应该再练练。”其实，她也没胆子，怕传回高辛，让父王难堪。
小夭说：“去颛顼那里吧，他应该会在朝云峰用过晚饭才回来。”
进了宅子，小夭跳下天马，叹道：“我这野路子的王姬毕竟和阿念不同，看着那么多人盯着我，我总会下意识地检讨自己做错了什么，难道是以前做当贼的后遗症？”
防风邶半真半假地说：“不如你别当王姬了，跟着我四处去玩。”
小夭笑嘻嘻地说：“好啊，只要你能放弃一切。”
防风邶哈哈笑起来，小夭笑睨了他一眼，话谁不会讲呢？我浪迹天下当骗子的时候，你说不定还在家里缠着婢女讨胭脂吃呢！
正厅是颛顼接待官员谈论政事的地方，小夭带着防风邶去了颛顼日间休憩的花厅，隔子中间，悬着纱帘，外面的大间摆放了茶榻和几案，可待客，里面的小间有睡榻，可小睡。
婢女们很快端上了饭菜。用过饭后，防风邶斜靠在窗边的坐榻上，一边喝酒一边看着窗外的风景。
小夭睡眼蒙胧地说：“颛顼好像没养舞伎，你若想看，自己去问问婢女。”
小夭走进里间，垂下帘幕，侧身躺在榻上，闷头就睡。以前在歌舞坊时，两人也是如此，用过饭后，防风邶在外间看舞伎跳舞，小夭在里面窝在榻上睡觉，等小夭睡够了，再商量去哪里玩。
隐隐约约，小夭听到防风邶说了句什么，小夭挥挥手，示意他别烦，她还没睡够。小夭的身体不比防风邶他们，练一早上的箭，十分疲累，如果不好好睡一觉，下午什么都干不了。
又睡了一会儿，半梦半醒中，听到防风邶和什么人说着话，小夭以为颛顼回来了，也没在意，手搭在额上，依旧躺着。
“听小夭说王子要用完晚膳才会回来，你若真有要紧事，不如派个人去轩辕山通传一声。”
“我已经打发人去轩辕山了。”
小夭一个激灵，彻底清醒了，那从容沙哑的声音，不是璟，还能是谁？
真奇怪，每一次听他和别人说话，总觉得和自己认识的璟不是一个人。和别人说话是，他说假话也十分从容淡定，而和她说话，小夭总觉得他有些笨嘴拙舌。
“你和王子的交情很好？”防风邶在试探。
“王子平易近人，与大家相处得都不错。”璟回答得滴水不漏。
小夭坐了起来，纱帘外的两人停止了谈话。小夭走到镜前，稍微整理了一下发髻。
防风邶说道：“小夭，刚才婢女来禀奏说青丘涂山璟求见王子，我看你还在睡觉，就自作主张让婢女请了他进来。”
小夭掀帘走了出去，笑道：“幸亏你自作主张了，否则倒是我怠慢了哥哥的朋友。”
小夭只做刚才什么都没听到，对璟客气地说：“哥哥在朝云峰，我这就打发人去请他回来。公子若没有急事，就在这里等等，若有的话，可以先回去，我让哥哥去找你。”说完，小夭真叫了婢女进来，吩咐他立即派人去轩辕山。
小夭对璟略欠欠身子，说道：“我和邶还有事，就不陪公子了。”
小夭和防风邶走出了屋子，小夭问防风邶：“待会儿去哪里？”
防风邶笑说：“你想去哪里，我们就去哪里。”
小夭觉得身后一直有目光凝着，沉甸甸的，压得她几乎要走不动，可她赌气一般，偏是要做出脚步轻快，谈笑风生的样子。
走到门口时，小夭突然想起早上答应过颛顼的话，停住了步子。刚才也不知道怎么了，一心就是想和璟对着干。
防风邶看她，“怎么了？”
小夭说：“我突然想起哥哥叮嘱的一件事，今日不能陪你去玩了，改日补上，可以吗？”
防风邶盯着她，那种熟悉的感觉又又冒了出来，小夭的身体不自觉地紧绷，似乎下一瞬，防风邶就会扑过来，在她脖子上狠狠地咬一口。
突然间，防风邶笑了，不在意的说：“好啊！”
防风邶扬长而去，小夭忍不住摸了下自己的脖子，感觉像是逃过了一劫。
花厅内，微风徐徐，纱帘轻动，一室幽静。
璟坐在榻上，身子一动不动，也不知道在想什么。
小夭在心里对自己说：他是涂山璟，不是破破烂烂没人要的叶十七。
小夭笑眯眯地走了进去，坐到涂山璟对面，“你要喝茶吗？我让婢女煮给你。”
璟声音暗哑，“不要。”
小夭殷勤地问：“那你要喝酒吗？让婢女给你烫点酒？轩辕城应该没有青丘暖和，到了秋末，一般都喜欢烫酒喝。”
"don't want."
小夭笑，“那你要什么？”
“你在这里，已足够。”
璟眉眼清润，唇角带着微微的笑，虽然笑意有些苦涩，却是真的一点没动气，就好似不管小夭做什么，只要她在这里，他就心满意足。
小夭突然觉得很泄气，就如对着云朵，不管怎么用力，人家就是不着力。
璟把一个小盒子递给小夭，小夭打开，里面是一根银白的链子，链子上坠着一颗紫色宝石，晶莹剔透，散发着璀璨的光芒。
小夭想了想，不太确信地问：“这是鱼丹紫？”
“本来想给你找颗红色的，可这东西虽不算珍贵，却真实可遇不可求，只找到了一颗紫色的。原想雕个什么，但我想，你要这东西肯定是想含着下水玩，不管什么模样，都不如圆润的一颗珠子含着舒服。你若想要什么样式，我再帮你雕。”
小夭问：“找这东西不容易吧？”
"No trouble."
小夭说：“不麻烦？连富可敌国的涂山氏也只找到了一颗紫色的。以后给女孩子送东西，一定要三分的麻烦说成五分，五分的麻烦说成十分，才能见诚意。”
璟不吭声。
小夭把玩着珠子，“这个已经锻造好了？”
"All right."
“真的含着珠子就能在水里自由呼吸？”
“嗯，我试过了。”
小夭正拿着珠子，凑在唇边欲含不含，听到这话，忙把珠子收到手里，可拿在手里，也觉得那珠子变得滚烫。
璟也有些局促，不过他怕小夭贪玩出事，低声叮嘱道：“最长的一次，我在水里游了一日两夜，不过我有灵力，安全起见，你最好不要超过十个时辰。”
小夭低低嗯了一声。璟喜静不喜动，为了测试珠子，居然在水里游了一日两夜。
小夭突然趴倒在案上，头埋在双臂间。
璟吓了一跳，声音都变了，“小夭，小夭，你哪里不舒服？”
“我没有不舒服，我只是有点恨你。”每一次，她刚狠下心，他总有办法让她心软。难道只是因为她把他捡回家，救了他，她就对他狠不下心了？
“对不起，我知道我不该出现！”璟完全不知道小夭那百转千回的心思，他只知道，小夭现在很不高兴，刚才和防风邶在一起时很高兴。
小夭恼得把手里的珠子砸到他身上，“你就是个大傻子，真不知道那些人为什么觉得你精明。”
璟不敢躲，只能一动不动地坐着。
小夭又担心珠子被她摔坏了，问：“珠子呢？”
璟忙帮她四处找，把滚落在地上的珠子递给小夭，“不会那么容易摔坏。”
小夭瞪了他一眼，一边把玩着珠子，一边闷闷地说：“你来轩辕城，为什么要带……你还想取消婚约吗？如果不想，你提早和我说一声，我也犯不着守着和你的约定等待！”
璟急切地说：“我当然想取消！我已经和奶奶说了，我不想娶防风意映！”
小夭低着头，显然在等着他说下去。
璟说：“这些年，意映一直陪伴奶奶左右，和奶奶感情很深，奶奶没有同意取消婚约，但同意将婚礼推后。这次，意映主动要求一起来轩辕城，我不想带她，可奶奶说我们涂山氏欠她的，要我把她当成妹妹照顾。”
小夭摇晃着珠子，默默沉思。
璟说：“小夭，奶奶一直很疼我，我一定会说服奶奶同意。”
小夭说：“这枚鱼丹紫，我收下了！”小夭将项链戴到脖子上，微微拉开衣领，把珠子滚了进去，贴身藏好。
璟看在眼内，心急跳了几下，忙低下了头。
小夭说：“我在学习箭术，防风邶愿意教我，所以走得比较近。”
璟心里一下子盈满了喜悦，微笑着说：“不用解释，现在我也没资格要求你解释。刚才，你回来了，已经足够。”
可她刚才回来却不是为了璟，而是为了颛顼！小夭心里十分压抑，她和璟之间也要利用与被利用吗？小夭问：“你还记得答应过我不会伤害轩吗？”
"Remember."
“我不知道我哥哥想做什么，但如果不会侵害到涂山氏，你能否尽可能给他一点帮助？”
璟温和地说：“如果只是这个要求，你根本不必开口。其实，我和丰隆这次来，是有事想和颛顼商谈。”
“如果没事商谈，你就不来了？”小夭咬着唇，蹙着眉。
璟的心急跳了一下，有点迟疑地说：“本来丰隆想让我等他一起来，但我……等不及，先来了。”
“这也叫先来？我到轩辕城已经二十个月了。”
璟翻来覆去思索小夭的这句话，觉得小夭这句话的意思应该是认为他来得晚了，可又不太相信小夭是这个意思，他不得不一个字一个字地揣摩，简直恨不得求小夭再说一遍，让他再分析一下语气。
小夭看璟默不作声，叹了口气，起身要走。
璟一把抓住她，结结巴巴地问：“小夭，你、你、你……想见我？”
小夭看着他，璟不安地说：“我知道我有些笨，如果误会了，你、你别生气。”
小夭好似又看到了回春堂里的十七，她一下子心软了，柔声问：“你想见我吗？”
璟重重点了下头，正是因为思念入骨，所以他反复思考后，想出了个法子，先说服了丰隆，现在又拉着丰隆和馨悦万里迢迢赶到轩辕城，来说服颛顼。
小夭不满地质问：“那你为什么不来？”
“有些事要做。”
小夭叹气，“你真的那么笃定，我不会让别的男人走进我心里？”
Jing shook her head.不笃定，就是因为完全不笃定，所以他才想出了这个几乎算是釜底抽薪的法子。
小夭无奈了，“你……好笨！”
璟黯然，和防风邶的潇洒风流、挥洒自如比起来，他的确太木讷。
颛顼和阿念走了进来，彼此见礼后，颛顼笑道：“不好意思，让你久等了。”
璟淡淡笑着：“无妨，是我没事先告知你。”他扫了一眼阿念，颛顼立即明白了，对阿念说：“陪了爷爷一天，你也累了，先去休息一会儿。”
阿念知道他们有事要谈，可看他们不回避小夭，不禁心内很不痛快，却丝毫没表露，只乖巧地说：“好。”
看阿念走远了，璟对颛顼说：“估计丰隆和馨悦待会儿就到，我已通知过他们，他们一进城，会立即悄悄赶来这里，和你碰头。今晚见过你后，他们不会再单独和你相见。”
颛顼听完，神情一肃，忙快步走到屋外，叫来心腹侍从，低声吩咐了几句。
颛顼也不问璟是什么事，让婢女上了酒菜，对璟笑说：“我们边吃边等吧。”又对小夭说：“小夭，你也开坐。”
小夭坐下，颛顼和璟漫无边际地说着话，小夭觉得无聊，一个人倒着酒喝，颛顼笑拍了她的头一下，“你若再喝醉了，丰隆和馨悦肯定以为你酗酒，如果酗酒的名声传出去，你就别想嫁人了。”
小夭不满地说：“谁又喜欢喝无聊的酒？咦，你不是精擅音律吗？去奏一首来听！”
颛顼自嘲地说：“在青丘璟面前，我可不敢说自己精擅音律，不如让璟弹一曲。”
璟说：“我已十几年没有碰过琴。”
颛顼有些意外，说道：“那我就献丑了。”
颛顼坐到
