Chapter 22 first quarter

The cherry blossoms are fluttering and falling. In the darkness, the petals of cherry blossoms danced in the sky and fell down without a sound. no wind. The petals left the branches and fell to the ground because they could not bear their own weight. It's cherry blossoms in full bloom. The petals kept falling for a moment, but no matter how they fell, the number of cherry blossoms on the branches remained the same. Above the cherry blossoms is a pale moon. "Qingming, it's incredible..." Yuan Boya said. "What's incredible?" Seimei asked in a low voice.

"Sakura." Boya said intoxicated, then looked up at the cherry blossoms. This is the courtyard of Seimei's mansion, and there is a tall old tree of cherry blossoms in the courtyard. The tender green spring grass that has not yet grown tall just sticks out its face from the soil, probing around.Seimei and Boya sat on the spring grass under the ancient cherry trees, spreading blankets. The felt has a dark blue background and is decorated with exquisite flowers and plants. It is an item from the distant Tang Dynasty. Between the two of them—close to the trunk of the ancient cherry tree—is a candlestick with a light on it, and a bottle of wine.

There are two wine glasses.Qingming held one in his right hand, and Boya held one in his left.Other, nothing. Only cherry blossom petals piled up on the ground. Cherry blossom petals were piled high on the blue blanket of flowers and plants, on Boya's body, and on Seimei's white hunting clothes. In the wine glass in Boya's hand, there were also two petals floating. Moreover, the petals of the cherry blossoms still fell silently and calmly on the two of them. The white petals of the cherry blossoms covered the two of them and their surroundings, like a thick layer of snow. "Sakura?" Seimei asked.

"The petals of the cherry blossoms have been falling for a long time, but the cherry blossoms on our heads don't seem to have diminished at all..." "Really?" Qingming replied indifferently. "Exactly like you..." "I?" "Yes..." Boya moved the wine glass in his hand to his lips, and drank the petals together. "I mean, human talent... Abe Seimei's talent is the same as Sakura's." "What's the meaning?" "Even if you don't do anything, your talents will overflow naturally." "..."

"And, no matter how overflowing, talent seems to remain undiminished." "yes?" "It's as if you have a tall cherry tree inside you, spreading its branches, blooming cherry blossoms endlessly, and falling petals endlessly." It continued to bloom and fall, but the cherry blossom inside Seimei remained in full bloom. The more she spreads her talents, the more cherry blossoms in Seimei seem to bloom... This is exactly what Boya expressed in a brief metaphor. "Bo Ya, there is no flower in the world that never fades." Qingming brought the wine glass to her red lips, and took a sip of the wine peacefully. "A flower is a flower because it withers."

"However, I always feel that on your branch, it is impossible for all the petals to fall..." Boya said with emotion. Seimei smiled in a way that he tried not to embarrass Boya.He seemed to be enjoying the cold night air that slowly penetrated into his body through the hunting clothes. "Speaking of which, Boya, do you have something to discuss with me tonight?" "Oh, Seimei, don't tell me I almost forgot..." Boya put down his glass, "You should know that Fujiwara is the assistant, right?" "Yes, he became a councilor last year." "That's right."

Fujiwara Misuke is the grandson of the former right minister Fujiwara Joyata, and the son of Zuobingweidu Asorai.He has successively held official positions such as Tibetan, Suzakuin Magistrate, Owari Shou, Yamashiro Shou, and You Daibian. He became a councilor in Tianyan three years (AD 975). The age is similar to Seimei and Boya. "It is said that someone visits Mr. Fu every night." Boya began to tell the ins and outs.
