The wind blew the leaves around me and rustled, and the sounds also sounded in my mind, like a tide that kept surging. I felt that the sounds would not dissipate, and they echoed in my mind for a while, and finally they would swell my whole body.

Hua Zhuyunshan stood behind me and saw Xie Houqi leaving. I stood blankly at the door and walked over worriedly and asked, "Miss Yan, what's wrong with you?"

"Are you uncomfortable? Your face is so pale."

"We, do you want to go back and rest, Miss Yan?"

I shook my head, but without saying anything, I lifted my foot, which was as heavy as a thousand pounds, and barely walked over the high threshold. Instead of going back to the bedroom, I walked along the way that Xie Houqi had just arrived and headed towards the Imperial Study.

Since I returned to the capital this time, I have hardly been there, but I still recognize the road.

There were familiar scenery along the way, but for some reason, it seemed a little different from what I remembered, but at this time I no longer had the heart to appreciate it. My legs seemed to be not my own. They moved forward with intuition and instinct. After a while, they walked on the path not far from the Imperial Study Room.

Hua Zhu and the others also recognized the road and asked me in a low voice: "Miss Yan, are you going to find Mr. Pei?"

“…”

I didn't say anything, but as soon as her words sounded, my steps stopped, and a gust of wind blew, making me wake up suddenly.

I really want to find Pei Yuanxiu?

When I find him, what should I say and what should I ask.

If he doesn't tell me, if he intentionally conceals it, then even if I ask him, he won't reveal a word to me. It's more likely that my actions today will alarm the enemy and completely destroy my next plan.

Just thinking about this, I was shocked and sweated.

Fortunately, there is still some distance from the Imperial Study Room. I took a deep breath and said, "No, I'm not going to find him."

"Then you are-"

"I'm just passing by here, let's keep going."

Seeing that I was inadvertent, I took a detour and continued walking forward. Hua Zhu and the others did not suspect that he was, so they followed me forward. However, after all, they were not familiar with this palace. Perhaps the only places that Xie Feng would tell them on weekdays were the places that they told them, and some places that they were not allowed to go, so they were completely unfamiliar with.

As they walked, they both became confused and asked me, "Where is this?"

"Yes, why have you never been here?"

“There are so many bamboos here.”

“…”

I was also a little dazed, because the surrounding scenery seemed to have changed a little compared to the past. I walked until the path that was covered with bamboos on both sides into a nearly closed corridor before I came to my senses.

This is the inner cabinet.

I had heard before that there was a catastrophe here. The bamboo forest was covered with blood and corpses piled up on this path. The pavilion was even more messy. Now I don’t know what it looks like inside, but when I saw that the trees were properly trimmed, the bamboo leaves were lush and the path was cleaned. It seemed that they had been washed with water. When I walked in, I felt a chill coming up from under my shoes.

Hua Zhu seemed to have a good impression of this place because of her name. She looked at the dense bamboo forest with a smile on her lips and said with a smile: "The scenery here is so beautiful."

Yunshan also said, "Yes, we have been in the palace for so long, and we didn't know that there is such a good scenery here."

"Miss Yan, what is this place?"

My steps had stopped, and when I heard them ask, my brows frowned slightly.

I said slowly, "This is the inner cabinet."

"Inside Pavilion?"

"Is it the place to collect books?"

"But, shouldn't the place where the books are collected be that - the place where the door is locked? What's the name?"

"Jixian Palace. You have a really bad memory!"

"Anyway, I don't have people in there, so I remember what I do?"

The two little girls probably became casual because of the beautiful scenery and quietness here. Just as they were talking to themselves behind, I looked at the path hidden by the bamboo forest, probably because the stone slabs on the soles of my feet were too cold. At this time, my body also became cold, which made me feel a little more awake. I turned around and said, "Let's go back."

"Ah? Miss Yan, aren't you going to come here to see it?"

"Go back now?"

They probably rarely came to a strange and beautiful place, and seemed to be a little lingering. I didn't care about their emotions and wanted to turn around and leave. But just as I took a step, a low and gentle voice came from behind--

“Light.”

As soon as I heard this sound, my back became numb.

Hua Zhu and Yunshan looked up and hurriedly said, "Young Master!"

The man slowly walked over from the other side of the path, and I heard his footsteps. Although I had been used to his footsteps and walked into the bedroom from outside, every time it seemed very heavy and worried, at this moment, his footsteps seemed to be very inconsistent, as if the big thing had been settled, no longer hesitated or pain.

He walked all the way to my back, and Hua Zhu and the others hurriedly stepped back.

His voice was gentle, as if he had a little smile, and in the almost nightmare memory of last night, his low and depressing voice was completely unnecessary: ​​"Are you here?"

Although it was asking, it didn't seem like it was really asking.

"Do you still remember here?"

“…”

Hua Zhuyunshan stood aside, opened his eyes wide open, looking at him and me again.

I was silent for a while, and finally turned my head slowly and met his smiling eyes. Perhaps because the surrounding bamboo forests were covered with the sky and the sun, his eyes were also reflected in green, with clear ripples. I said, "Yes, I wanted to come out for a walk, but I accidentally came here."

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! He said: "It just so happens that I plan to let you come in the afternoon."

"Yeah?"

I looked at him in a panic, but he seemed to not see my emotions at all. He just smiled and said, "Yes, because today just now-"

Speaking of this, he paused for a moment and said, "You come in and see."

After saying that, he grabbed my wrist as soon as he reached out.

I frowned and subconsciously wanted to break free, but he had already led me in. Of course, Huazhu and Yunshan would not follow him at this time. They even took two steps back and retreated to the other end of the path.

I was led by him all the way, with both hands not light or heavy, but I couldn't break free and pulled it to the door of the inner cabinet.

Not only is the road clean, but even the stone steps here have been washed away. There are some untouched puddles in the corners of the wall. The stone steps are clean and almost spotless, and the door is covered with a faint feeling because the wind blows from the road, causing the copper rings on the door to sway slightly, making a very light sound.

I was stunned for a moment.

After all, I have been here for several years, and almost every day, I cleaned the path with leaves falling, then carried a bucket of water to wash the stone steps, and then opened the door to serve as the duty.

Even though these scenes have not been staged in my mind for many years, when everything appears in front of me, it still makes me feel a little surprised, as if time has suddenly flowed back.

Seeing my eyes become wandering, he let go of my hand.

The door was still standing in front of me. The copper ring on the door was probably replaced by a new one, completely new and shiny, but it was a bit different from the one I had in the past, and the light green rust formed around it.

I reached out and pressed it on the copper ring and slowly pushed open the door.

A gust of wind blew in from behind.

It's very quiet inside.

Tall and neat bookcases stand inside, with a full list of books on the shelves, some more precious books, and they are specially stored in boxes. As soon as you enter the door, you can smell a very light fragrance. Although the wind blows, it does not blow away the fresh smell of the books.

I even saw that there were pens, ink, paper and inkstone on the table beside the window, and some words were written on one piece of paper, but as soon as the door opened, the wind blew around the entire house and the paper suddenly became blown away.

They were all fluttering in front of them, like falling snow.

I walked over slowly, picked up one, and then picked up another one.

He didn't stop me, picked up all the paper and put it back on the table, and saw his pen and ink on the top of the paper.

The joy of love is full of life, and only King Xiang remembers it in his dream.

I was silent for a while, then slowly raised my head and looked around. If what those people told me before was true, the inner cabinet here had almost been destroyed by war, then what stood in front of me now should be the inner cabinet he rebuilt by someone. After a sudden look, I could hardly see any difference from the past.

The only difference is that in my opinion, if you leave a place for more than ten years, the place will always become more dilapidated, such as cracks in the corners of the walls, and loose beams of the house... It's like, if you leave a person and meet again many years later, you can't just be like when you leave. You may get old, maybe marry and marry a husband. Life is like the Yangtze River, which seems to be running day and night, but the handful of water you scooped up the previous moment will definitely not be the same as the handful of water you scooped up afterwards.

But in front of me was an unchanged inner cabinet.

Even more newer and clearer than the one I remember.

A sound of footsteps came behind me, and he almost touched my back, and his gentle breath blew across my ears, and said softly: "I knew, you still remember this."

“…”

"I have someone rebuilt this place, and everything is exactly the same as before."

“…”
