Gu Juefei went out.
long time.
Lu Jinxi waited in the room for a long time, thinking that it was the bridal chamber night, why should I give him some face, can't he say sleep, just sleep by himself
So even though she was a little sleepy, she still waited.
Unexpectedly, after waiting until the noise of the guests outside had dissipated, Gu Juefei hadn't come back yet, and no one said where the others were going.
This is a little strange.
Lu Jinxi remembered the phrase "wait for me" that he said when he left, and when he looked at the red candle that was burning for a while, he suddenly felt a little unusual.
It's just that this night, at such a special time, it's not easy for her to go out.
After thinking about it, I just lie down and sleep with my clothes on.
On the morning of her wedding, she got up early and didn't get enough sleep, and fell asleep after a while. It's just that the bed and the quilt on the bed are brand new. She recognizes the bed a little bit, and when she was halfway asleep, she only felt something slapped under her body, so she woke up.
In a daze, I opened my eyes and saw that the room was full of red.
The red character "囍" was still posted in the room, the dragon and the phoenix were burning brightly against the candles, and the food and wine were still on the table.
There was a man sitting in front of the bed.
It is still the bright red wedding dress, and the whole person adds that kind of intense fire cooking oil to the temperament of exile in the past, which makes people unable to take their eyes off.
It was Gu Juefei.
I don't know when he came back, so he just stared at her quietly.
"woke up?"
Seeing that she opened her eyes with a little confusion, he smiled, reached out his hand, and gently stroked her cheeks that were flushed after sleeping.
The temperature of the fingertips was a little cold.
As if the wind was blowing outside.
But the season in July is very hot, so the temperature not only did not shock Lu Jinxi, but made her feel a rare coolness, put it on herself, blinked and said, "When did you come back? What time? already?"
"Now Yin Shichu. There was a delay outside, and I just came back for a while. I wanted to wake you up, but I couldn't bear to call you when you were asleep. I just sat here and watched for a while."
His voice was soft, and the smile on his lips was warm.
Lu Jinxi's heartbeat was a little faster than expected. Inexplicably, he felt that the inside of the quilt was warm, so he lifted the quilt and sat up, and reached out to grope under it.
It didn't take a while to touch the "culprit" who woke her up.
A hard peanut.
At the moment, he laughed: "I will wake up if you don't call me. There are a lot of dried fruits sprinkled on this bed. Who can sleep well?"
Gu Juefei was sitting facing her, but the light came from behind him. The person turned against the light, and the face was hidden in the shadows, and the outline became a little dark.
But the more so, the more charming it is.
Hearing Lu Jinxi's words, he laughed out loud: "Not used to falling asleep?"
"I'm not very used to it." Lu Jinxi didn't lie, but he didn't take it seriously. "I always think this house is too new, but it should be fine to stay for two days."
This house is new.
Gu Juefei turned his eyes to look at her, then turned to look at her again, his eyes were deep, and he stretched out his hand to pull her out of the soft quilt.
Lu Jinxi was puzzled: "What are you doing?"
Gu Juefei directly took her hand and walked outside, saying, "Take you somewhere."
It's so late, are you still going out
She was a little stunned, but Gu Juefei pulled her and followed him out naturally.
As soon as the door was pushed open, the maids and servants were still outside. She was about to ask where she was going when a figure walked quickly in the front court.
Wearing a gray-blue robe, he is very popular with literature, and his face is still a little dignified.
It was Mengji.
This Taoan scholar, Meng Ji, is Gu Juefei's follower. Lu Jinxi has seen it before, and has an impression, but he didn't expect the other party to come to him. what happened
Sure enough, when Gu Juefei saw him, his footsteps also stopped.
Meng Ji came forward, as if he didn't expect to see Gu Juefei going out, and he didn't expect to see Lu Jinxi next to him. He hesitated for a while, and couldn't say anything.
The hallway was lit with red lanterns.
There are lush flowers and trees in the courtyard, and the near ones are illuminated by the lights, and the far ones are also dark, giving people a psychedelic feeling of seeing flowers in the fog.
Gu Juefei stood on the steps, and did not let go of Lu Jinxi's hand, only frowned and asked, "What else?"
"It's someone who has already arrested him. Master Fang asked if you would like to go over and ask in person..." Meng Ji said, noticing Lu Jinxi's curious eyes, his voice suddenly became smaller.
Gu Juefei's eyes were slightly cold. Hearing this, he raised his foot and pulled Lu Jinxi forward, and only threw it to Meng Ji: "Just let him do it himself."
After all, it's a candle night in the bridal chamber.
Meng Ji only felt that his neck was cold. Although there was something he didn't tell Gu Juefei, but seeing how he pulled Lu Jinxi out, he probably didn't want to know about it at all.
Especially, in front of Lu Jinxi.
So after standing there for a while, he still shut his mouth and just watched the two figures disappear outside the courtyard gate.
People have gone a long way.
Lu Jinxi was not very familiar with the road in the Grand Master's Mansion, let alone where Gu Jue had to take her, but just remembered Meng Ji's appearance just now, and asked, "Is something wrong?"
"Nothing big happened, just a few little thieves appeared at night, and it was all a fuss." Gu Juefei took the words lightly, "Meng Ji too, he has been with me for so many years, but he is still so ignorant."
I'm afraid it's not Meng Ji's lack of wink, but that this matter is also important, right
Lu Jinxi naturally remembered that he said before that he was going to entertain guests, but he didn't come back after midnight. It's just that her knowledge is really limited, and she doesn't know what secrets are hidden in the middle.
Only Gu Juefei didn't want to mention it, so she simply didn't ask, and just went with him.
The location of the new house seems to be in the center of the Taishi Mansion.
But now the place where Gu Juefei took her to was slowly quieting down. There were not many people on the road. Even if they did, seeing him taking Lu Jinxi, they all saluted respectfully in surprise.
After a while, the two walked to the small lake.
This time, Lu Jinxi knew where the destination was - she had been to this place before, and she still sent Xue Chi to the Taishi's house to worship Mr.
On the other side of this small lake is Gu Juefei's small building.
She smiled: "What are you taking me here for this big night?"
"I'm the head of the family, but I don't like to take care of family affairs. I don't live in the yard where you just slept, and it's not very human."
Gu Juefei smiled lightly and only let her stand beside him.
"Isn't your bed too new to sleep well? Take you to where I live."
With that said, he stepped forward, and unexpectedly untied a rope from a wooden stake standing by the lake, and pulled out a small boat from the lotus flower bush.
Then he stood up first, turned around and extended his hand to her.
"Come."
"I'm on a pirate ship."
Lu Jinxi made a big joke, walked over, put his hand in his, and he helped him up.
Each other's palms are warm.
The night wind blows.
There is a hazy water vapor on the lake, and the cool humidity takes away the sultry heat, and also makes the plain lotus fragrance fill people's hearts.
Gu Juefei held the penny, and she sat in the boat.
There is a lack of moon in the sky.
It seemed that only the two of them were left in the world, with lotus leaves and lotus flowers in their eyes, and their hearts were extremely calm for a while.
The gurgling sound of water was the only sound, and a few soft waves swayed, piercing the shadow of the moon.
When they abandoned the ship and landed, the two of them were already cool, and the fragrance covered the front of their clothes.
In front of him is Gu Juefei's Xiaozhu.
When I looked up, the word "Lonely Window" was still hanging on it, but there was no light inside, it was all dim and dark.
Gu Juefei didn't care either, still holding her hand and walking inside, lighting a lamp downstairs, and taking her upstairs all the way.
But not the second floor, but the third floor.
As soon as I entered, I smelled the fragrance of books in the room. There was a picture of the wind and snow on the side wall. It was a qin player holding a guqin and standing in the wind and snow. However, in the ink color, it haloed into a faint deep shadow.
Gu Juefei put down the lamp, lit a few more, and the house lit up.
But Lu Jinxi stopped in front of the picture.
He looked back, walked behind her, but stretched out his hand from behind, wrapped around her slender waist, brought her close to his chest, and asked, "What are you looking at? Does this painting look good to me? "
Lu Jinxi's eyes flickered in the light and shadow.
She blinked and wanted to laugh, but for some reason she didn't laugh, she just said, "What's the difference between looking at your paintings and looking at you?"
"Oh?" Gu Juefei also moved his gaze to Huashan, "What did you see?"
see what
I can see the unwillingness, ambition, ambition, and even the arrogance that does not put the world in the eyes. as well as…
Boneless loneliness.
Lu Jinxi closed his eyes, and then suppressed the strange emotion in his heart, and then smiled lightly; "Mochou has no confidants in the future, no one in the world knows you..."
The person holding her behind him paused.
It seems that she never expected to be seen through by her at a glance, and she never expected to be spoken to her heart again.
After a long while, he leaned against her neck and sighed: "Lu Jinxi, how can I not like you..."
No one in the world knows you, and he did it.
But there are very few confidants along the way.
Over the years, Lu Jinxi was the only one who said "the real general doesn't wear a sword", drank with him, read his words, and read his mind...
In fact, he said that Lu Jinxi was finished, but in fact, the moment he met Lu Jinxi, he was already finished.
Now it's just dragging her into it with him.
Covet such a confidant, covet such a confidant, be curious about her many faces, be amazed at her wisdom, and whether it will be doomed or shattered, they will never let go.
At this moment, the small building was extremely quiet.
The excitement at the banquet and the prosperity of the Grand Master's Mansion were all excluded, and there was only one she and one him here.
Lu Jinxi turned from his arms, put his arms around his neck, raised his head slightly to look at him, and said with a smile: "It's a coincidence, I'm also thinking, how can I drive you out of my heart."
Gu Juefei laughed angrily: "You dare."
Lu Jinxi teased him: "I really dare."
Gu Juefei was not angry, and was quite confident: "That's really a pity, I want to be as cunning as you, I have already tried it, I'm afraid it won't work, right?"
"… "
Lu Jinxi was speechless for a moment, and just looked at him with such determination.
This expression undoubtedly pleases Gu Juefei, and makes the smile on his lips widen. When it falls in Lu Jinxi's eyes, it becomes full of disgust: "You laugh like a fool."
"I really want to mourn for Madam. After tossing for a while, I couldn't escape the clutches of a fool." Gu Juefei stretched out his hand, took her away from the painting, and asked, "Are you hungry?"
"I'm not hungry." Lu Jinxi had already eaten some in his room, so he didn't treat himself badly at all, so he shook his head and said, "I'm just curious about something else."
"What's the matter?"
There was a jar of wine in the room, Gu Juefei picked it up, opened the mud seal, took a sip to himself, and brought it up to feed her.
It is Prajna wine.
Lu Jinxi tasted it, and was pulled by him to sit by the window again. Looking out from here, he could see the stars and moon covering the night sky, and the lotus swaying across the lake.
It's a location with an excellent view.
She laughed, sat side by side with him, and took the wine to drink, she felt that the temperature burned into her heart, a mellow one.
"At the Golden Palace that day, no one else wanted me to marry you. Is there any reason for this?"
"Yes." Gu Juefei didn't deny it, "but I'm not going to tell you."
"why?"
Lu Jinxi didn't understand.
Gu Juefei turned his eyes to look at her, the divine light at the bottom of his eyes was deeper and darker than the lake full of lotus flowers that they walked through.
It was a look that could drown her.
There was a smile on his lips, but not in his eyes, he just said, "This is my secret."
still secret...
Lu Jinxi was not so comfortable in her heart, she pretended to be sour, and said lightly, "If you don't tell me, I won't ask. Who in the world can't have a secret? To be honest, I have it too."
She thought that Gu Jue had to ask, "What's the secret?" But she didn't expect that he just looked at her with a smile and said warmly, "Then if you don't tell me, I won't ask."
"… "
Just for a moment, Lu Jinxi suddenly felt that he actually knew his secret, because the look in her eyes was too gentle.
Like a weeping willow in spring, it bound her.
In the depths of his consciousness, he suddenly froze for a moment.
Lu Jinxi looked at him without saying a word.
But Gu Juefei took her hand, put her cool fingertips to her lips and kissed gently, the alcohol in her breath had already soaked up, and only said, "What's wrong?"
He really entertained the guests. He had already drank a lot during the banquet, but he left the house when the banquet was almost over, and the alcohol on his body was blown away by the wind.
Although I only drank a little bit now, all the alcohol from the past came up.
There were ripples in his eyes, which made people blush and heartbeat at first sight.
Lu Jinxi trembled slightly when he kissed his fingertips, and at this moment, he didn't know which muscle in his head twitched, and asked in a dreamy voice, "You are talking to me now, but I suddenly want to sleep. You, are you a little unkind..."
