Qingji didn't pay attention to her expression, but when he arrived here, he was fascinated by the scenery here.
Many years later, people could only enjoy the pure beauty of foreign villages on the landscape calendar, but now, he has seen it with his own eyes.
It's just an ordinary pond, meadow, willow trees, blue sky, white clouds, but all these combined, there is an indescribable beauty of artistic conception, even the air here seems to be extremely pure, the sunlight filtered by the willow trees, it seems not so strong, there is a kind of melting warmth in the softness, birds fly over the pond, the clouds in the sky are like dreams woven by flocculents, and the blue sky does not see the slightest turbidity and pollution.
Mrs.
Cheng Bi raised her legs and stepped on the weeds that grew on the gravel path, and walked towards the pavilion.
She walked into the pavilion and tilted her head slightly.
Qingji and the two maids quietly followed, standing behind her.
Cheng Bi looked at the clear blue sky for a long time, and suddenly turned back and smiled, his eyes were bright: "I remember the last time I came, it was thirteen years ago, when the pavilion had just been built, and it was Mrs.
Ai who stood here, and I was standing at Xiaohe's."
"Mrs.
Ai" Qingji couldn't help but be moved when she heard this.
The last time he was in Xingyuan, Ji Song Gongzi quietly told him about Ji Sun Xiaoman's identity, but he didn't tell Mrs.
Cheng Bi.
It was Ji Sun Zifei's family affair, a tragic war between two women competing for favor, and Ji Sun Xiaoman was just a poor daughter left by the one who failed, Qingji didn't know how Cheng Bi would treat her if she knew she was here, so he chose to remain silent.
Mrs.
Cheng Bi nodded slightly, as if immersed in the memories of Youyou: "Yes, I came with Mrs.
Ai, she has always liked fishing" After pondering for a long time, Mrs.
Chengbi suddenly realized it, restrained the leisurely contemplative expression on her face, and said lightly to Xiaohe and Xiaoling: "You go and wait in the car outside, Mrs.
Ben wants to fish here for fun, just have the chief steward to accompany her, and don't come to disturb me if you don't have to summon." ” "Yes, the servant obeys," Xiaohe and Xiaoling hurriedly agreed, retreated in a panic, and escaped through the dense weeds.
In their opinion, Mrs.
Cheng Bi took the Yang Steward to go fishing in the wild, it was clear that there were lovers traveling together, if it weren't for Cheng Bi who had never ordered them to leave, they would have avoided it far away, and now Mrs.
Cheng Bi suddenly mentioned Mrs.
Ai's again, this topic has always been a taboo in Chengfu, she can say that she can't listen to it, the more she knows, the worse the end will be, so as soon as she heard the order, the two clever girls immediately ran away.
"Madame, let's go and sit under the willow tree."
Qingji picked up two fishing rods, picked up a jar of bait, and said to Mrs.
Cheng Bi.
"Well," Mrs.
Cheng Bi replied, and the two walked side by side to a willow tree not far from the pavilion.
The two-acre pond is somewhat different in terms of water in the rainy season and dry season, and there is a vacant lot several feet away along the edge of the pond, and there are no tall weeds in this place, only some low and soft green grass that sticks to the ground, like a fluffy carpet spread on the ground.
There were stones under the willow trees, and a corner of the stern of the boat was exposed in the water not far away, which turned out to be a rotten and sunken boat.
Qingji folded some grass and spread it on the stones, asked Cheng Bi to sit down, and then put the two fishing rods on the bait, handed one to Mrs.
Cheng Bi, and threw the two fishing rods into the pond one after the other, and there were ripples on the water surface.
Mrs.
Cheng Bi smiled and said: "Today, maybe you can really catch a big fish, since Mrs.
Ai passed away, I asked the head of the family for this land, no one is allowed to expand the field to change the surrounding appearance, no one is allowed to come here to fish, fishing, more than ten years, there should be many fat fish in this pond." ” Qingji asked tentatively: "Madame keeps this place to commemorate Mrs.
Ai?"
Cheng Bi turned his head, the Yingying eyes turned slightly on his face, turned his head again, looked at the float on the water, shook his head lightly and said, "No, it's to commemorate myself and the past Cheng Bi."
From that day on, my identity was no longer a happy and carefree little maid, but my fate changed drastically."
She was stunned for a long time, and suddenly smiled lightly: "In a person's life, no one can predict where he will go next, what he will become, even if he has a rich imagination, he will never think of it."
Thirteen years ago, when I stood in that pavilion, I was still a servant girl, and it was Mrs.
Ai and Dr.
Ji Sun Zifei who were sitting here side by side fishing; Thirteen years later, it's me and you sitting here fishing, and those two people, two people who can make me live and let me die, have turned into a piece of loess, and thinking about it, it's like a dream."
Qingji was touched by her words, and sighed: "Yes, this is indeed unexpected, but no matter how big the ups and downs of your life are, no matter how bizarre the changes are, where can it compare to the strangeness of my life." ” "Hmm" Cheng Bi turned his head to look at him, and Qing Ji looked away.
His fate is indeed bizarre, so bizarre that many nights, he will look at the roof of the shed in a daze, wondering if this is his own absurd dream, maybe one day he will suddenly wake up, but this secret cannot be told to anyone.
He smiled bitterly and said: "Just a year ago, I was still the son of Wu who led the troops to fight in the Chu State, my father was the king of the Wu State, who would have thought that a year later I ran here incognito but I don't believe in fate, the big river goes east, duckweed on the water, leaves fall under the trees, and all rivers return to the sea, this is just a law, there are traces."

The most difficult thing to know is the human heart, and the most unpredictable thing is the fate of people, and no one can completely control it. ” Mrs.
Cheng Bi sighed deeply, nodded with deep sympathy, her eyes unconsciously turned to the side, and suddenly saw something on the willow tree next to her, Cheng Bi couldn't help but exclaim: "Look, there is a cicada." ” Qingji turned his head to see that there was indeed a cicada lying on the trunk, but this cicada had not completely molted its shell, and the cicada's emerald green wings were shaking slightly in the earthy yellow shell, trying to break free of the cicada and spread its wings to fly.
Mrs.
Cheng Bi only saw the scene of cicadas when she was a child and played in the forest with her friends, and now many years have passed, and suddenly saw such a scene at this time, her childlike heart suddenly rose, she bent her index finger, and was about to bounce the cicada into the water, and suddenly Qingji grabbed her wrist: "Slow" "Hmm" Mrs.
Cheng Bi turned her head and teased: "Why, the Qingji warrior who kills thousands of people and does not change his face actually pities a little cicada?"
Qingji shook his head and said, "The cicada hides in the ground and lives in endless darkness for several years, and when it crawls out of the ground and molts and feathers, it only has two or three months of life left.
After waiting for so long, just for the glory of this moment, and you and I are struggling in the unknown for life, what is the difference between its wishes, the moment it spreads its wings, it is eternal. ” Cheng Bi was stunned when she heard this, slowly lowered her arm, and stared at the cicada that was still struggling and wriggling in her shell with her sparkling eyes, not noticing that her silky and slender wrist was still in Qingji's hand.
Qingji walked past her, crouched down to the willow tree, and carefully tore the cicada's shell open.
Suddenly, the cicada struggled hard, and suddenly crawled out of the cicada, it slowly climbed up a little, and then tentatively spread its wings, and the wings that the cicada had just shed were emerald green, with golden patterns.
The wings slowly opened, shook lightly twice, and then spread their wings and flew into the air.
Qingji squinted his eyes and smiled as he watched it spread its wings and fly into the dazzling sunlight of the forest, and when he turned his head again, he saw a pair of gentle eyes like water, looking at him quietly As soon as the buoy sank, Qingji's eyes were quick, and he hurriedly shook his wrist, and the fishing rod bent, and a fat carp jumped out of the water, and then sank into the water with a "porphyr" sound, splashing a splash.
Cheng Bi exclaimed: "Ah, what a big fish" Qingji's excited heart is also pounding, big fish, big fish, at least ten pounds of big fat carp, he only saw it when he went to the reservoir to fish with his father when he was a teenager, and then later, even the reservoir can not see such a fat carp, this fish is only a rough visual inspection, at least at least ten catties or more, Qingji jumped up excitedly, and shouted in a panic: "The fish is too big, be careful to break the fishing line, you have to get tired of it." ” Qingji said as he held the fishing rod and ran around on the riverbank, neither letting it break free and escaping, nor rushing to pull it ashore, Cheng Bi also happily followed him, completely forgetting his noble identity now, clapping his hands and laughing, shouting and shouting, all the worries and pressures were thrown out of the cloud by her at this moment.
When the fish was finally pulled ashore, Cheng Bi was afraid that it would jump back into the water again, so she hurriedly bent down and reached out to catch it, but the fish's tail fluttered, and her face was shallow. ” Her laughter at this moment was not reserved at all, it was joy from the heart.
Qingji took out the reckless cut, killed the fish, removed the scales and intestines, washed it in the pond, and put it in the kettle.
Mrs.
Cheng Bi rolled up her sleeves, revealing a white wrist, she deftly mixed salt, tempeh, vinegar, ginger, orange peel, pepper, green onion, celery, garlic, perilla, dogwood and various spices into it, soaked the fish into the flavor, Xiang Qingji smiled proudly: "Burning fish is Mrs.
Ben's specialty, there are few people who are blessed to taste it, and today it is only cheaper for you." ” To be continued:
