Chapter Forty-Seven: The Shadow of the Palace

Zhu Youcong is fifteen years old! After his birthday, the people of Luoyang have begun a year of busy work; the soldiers in the military camp are still immersed in the excitement brought by the last weapons display and have been training for their whole lives;

When everyone in the institute was so tired that they couldn't even carry the bowls, a thief started to break out in Prince Fu's Mansion.

This thief is really special. He worked hard for a month without stealing anything. Even the silver coins that fell on the ground would be picked up by the kind-hearted thief and placed in a conspicuous place. This thief is also very punctual.

He would appear in the peonies in the palace on time at the next watch, and would disappear before the third watch, not even taking away a single petal. Everyone in the palace chose to ignore this boring thief, not bothering to care about him.

This thief has a well-known identity - Zhu Youcong, the general of the country! How can this idle man, who can walk sideways in Luoyang City, let alone the palace, be so boring? He is not idle!

His fat father was busy counting money, and his three brothers were each responsible for the sales of jade porcelain, soap, and glass and had no time to pay attention to him. The two princesses were muttering to the little fairy in the backyard every day, and they had long forgotten that he was there.

Son! The profiteer Xiao Changzi returned to Shunde Mansion to visit relatives, and also brought several young nephews back to Luoyang to attend school; the loyal minister Xiao Lezi wanted to steal a dog two days ago to scare the little maid, but he was bitten and was lying on the bed humming

snort!

Gu Xichou and Wang Zhizhen, in addition to being responsible for civil affairs, also have to manage public security. They also have to go to the academy to teach students from time to time. They don't have the time to be bothered by this little fat guy. Not to mention the other three great think tanks in Luoyang and Master Zhu Qiji.

, wishing they were Nezha with three heads and six arms! Of course Zhu Youcong had no reason to harass them anymore. As for Zhang Guowei, who used the excuse to come back to visit and study, but was actually eating and drinking, he ran away without loyalty after reporting on his work.

None of this is the reason for Zhu Youcong to become a thief! The real reason is that a fairy appears in the waterside pavilion of the palace. Every time there is fog on the lake at midnight, she will play and sing softly there; but some people want to cross the peonies.

When she gets closer, she will suddenly disappear! Zhu Youcong, a fat little man with no taste, of course has no idea what she is playing or singing; he just thinks it sounds good and can calm people down in that moment.

The first person to discover this miracle was the little fairy Ningmeng. After all, they were all immortals, so maybe they would come to visit after saying hello. Ningmeng also played with the fairy, so the effect... wasn't very good.

!Anyway, after listening to it, Zhu Youcong still can't tell the difference between the taste of cabbage and meat! Fortunately, the little fairy is kind-hearted, and she is particularly worried about the health of her future husband. Now she goes back to the house very early every day.

, I was so embarrassed that I never came out to cause trouble again. Otherwise, the musicians in the palace would definitely lose their jobs collectively!

"Ding ding... dong dong..."

Zhu Youcong finally did not wait in vain today. A figure appeared again in the pavilion in the lake, and the sound of the piano sounded again, but the sound of the piano today was completely different from the past. It was like resentment and admiration, and seemed to be telling some secret resentment. There was a part in it.

The sadness that is so thick that it cannot be dissolved makes people want to cry!

"The male pheasant is flying, letting go of its feathers. I am pregnant, and I am trying to stop it..."

The ancient rhyme is elegant, the singing is lingering and sad, and the feeling of longing that lingers in dreams is fully revealed.

Who is she? Who is she? Of course Zhu Youcong will not believe the fairy tales, which he often uses to fool others. At first, he thought he was just a shy maid; but this lyrics is clearly

"Bei Feng·Xiong Pheasant" in the Book of Songs. Luoyang has not sent out any soldiers in recent years. Did she come from Liaodong? The family has never recruited new people, so how did she get in?

"Girl..." A series of questions made Zhu Youcong's heart extremely entangled. He stood up suddenly, ready to ask clearly. But when he ran around the flowers and ran to the place, the building was already empty. The piano was not cold, and the fragrance was fragrant.

Before it was extinguished, the whole pavilion was filled with a refreshing fragrance...

How could this happen? Is she really a fairy in the sky? Or an elf in the lake? Zhu Youcong was puzzled. The only entrance to this waterside pavilion was the way he came! A few strands of black hair on the piano table caused a stir.

After catching Zhu Youcong's attention, he carefully picked it up and carefully tied two bows together.

He should do something for them! A painting appeared in Zhu Youcong's mind. The woman in the painting was as delicate as a frail woman. Her long silky hair was blowing in the wind, and her eyes were staring into the distance. She was in the painting.

Waiting, hoping that the lover who doesn’t know where he is is safe and sound! Waiting, waiting for the one in my heart to come back to me as soon as possible!

"What a beautiful person!" Ning Meng was attracted by the paintings on the table as soon as she entered the room. Although the faces of the people in the paintings could not be seen clearly, it still stirred up her little heart. "There is also a poem.

?The sky is covered with frost over the ten-mile flat lake, and every inch of blue hair is filled with worry about the past. Looking at each other at the moon shape, we only envy the mandarin ducks but not the immortals. Brother Cong, who is this painting?"

"I don't know either!" The painting was painted by Zhu Youcong based on what he had in mind. His grandfather in later generations made a living by painting charcoal portraits for people in the town. Of course, he had followed him since he was a child. If he hadn't worked in the photo studio later

Appeared in large numbers, maybe their family would pass on this skill. As for the poem, of course it was plagiarized shamelessly. Compared with Lu Zhaolin's "The Ancient Meaning of Chang'an", he felt that this poem was more soothing. This painting he

I plan to place it on the piano table in the waterside pavilion. Maybe one day the fairy playing the piano will see it.

"I don't know?" Ning Meng pouted unhappily, you little fat guy! How can you draw people who don't know so realistically? Did you even add a poem to them?

"Meng'er, I really don't know!" Zhu Youcong accepted his fate. Everything has been destined. She will be his wife in the future. Besides, this little fairy is already so beautiful that she will not really become a witch as she grows older.

Ah! It’s better to hide this kind of disaster that is ruining the country at home, lest she go out and harm the world! I am the unique general who governs the country in the Ming Dynasty. Two generations of emperors have spent a lot of thought on this title. I should share the worries of the country.

Relieve people's difficulties!

"Tell me..." Ningmeng knew that there was no need to cry or fuss when dealing with Zhu Youcong. As long as he stuck to him and looked pitiful, the little fat man would definitely give in!

"Okay, okay, I said..." I can't stand it, this little witch does this trick every time! But I seem to enjoy it more and more! Zhu Youcong slowly told what happened outside the water pavilion that day

come out.

"Brother Cong, can't you help them reunite?"

"No!" Zhu Youcong shook his head cruelly, "I don't know if her husband is voluntary. However, every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the country. Since he is guarding the border for the country, he must fulfill his duties and complete his mission.

I understand them and I sympathize with them. But no matter whether her husband can return safely or die for the country, I can't destroy the Great Wall for the happiness of their family! At least I can't now!" Yes, soldiers! They also have flesh and blood,

They have seven emotions and six desires, and they have the right to enjoy life. But when foreign enemies invade and the country is in danger, they must abandon these and stand up!

"Then... what if the person she loves is not a lieutenant in the army?" Ning Meng blinked her eyes, revealing a hint of a smile.

"Haha, as long as she is willing, of course I can help." It would be much easier if he is not a soldier. No matter whether he is a high-ranking official or a child of a rich family, how can you not cherish someone who misses you like this? Even if you don't want him, you have to.

Speak clearly so that others can be relieved as soon as possible.

"Then you agreed to let them be together?" Ning Meng deliberately misinterpreted Zhu Youcong's meaning.

"Okay, as long as the girl doesn't look too scary!" We'll talk about freedom of marriage later! Anyway, it's popular in this era to tie couples up, so it doesn't hurt to do it occasionally for the sake of our goblin! Of course, if this girl looks too good,

I'm sorry, I have to ask the man for his opinion. After all, we have to live together in the future, and it wouldn't be good if I frightened someone when I lit the lamp at night!…

"It's not scary, of course it's not scary, and it's very beautiful!" Ning Meng declared loudly, as if she had seen it before.

"Oh? How do you know?"

"I guessed it! You can play the piano so well and have such a beautiful voice, how can you not be beautiful?" Feeling that she had let something slip, Ningmeng quickly started to smooth things over. "Don't you remember that I have been with her before?

Is it wrong? I'll lure her out tonight. You can take a good look at it yourself and ask her again, okay?"

The voice is beautiful, and playing the piano well can prove that you are beautiful? Zhu Youcong really wanted to tell the troublemaker who ran outside the door that there is a thing called voice-changing software in later generations, which can make the call of a drake sound more annoying than a beautiful woman!

The sound of nature once again surrounded Prince Fu's Mansion. This time, no one came to watch. Even Prince Fu could only stay in the hall and enjoy it from a distance.

The woman in the waterside pavilion did not flee in a hurry this time, but quietly turned her back to the entrance, staring at the painting on the piano table. The graceful and graceful figure, the high temples, the figure, the narrow waist, the straight line.

Like the fairy from the Moon Palace walking out of a painting.

"It's you?"

After seeing the woman's appearance clearly, Zhu Youcong shouted that he had been deceived! Little witch, little witch, you are causing me so much trouble! This is going to be bad luck, bad luck!
