A calculating light flashed across Xue Xichen's eyes. When he walked to the path below the Octagonal Pavilion, a white ice silk handkerchief in Xue Xichen's hand fell quietly inadvertently. It turned several times in the wind and left a trace in the air. A faint fragrance of mandala fell gracefully at the man's feet.
The man stopped, leaned over and picked up the silk handkerchief.
Xue Xichen pretended to look down casually. The man also happened to raise his head and look up. For a moment, their eyes met in the air.
Xiao Liuyue. It is indeed you.
A flash of surprise flashed across Xiao Liuyue's eyes. Then he put on his usual smile. He nodded towards Xue Xichen and said gracefully, "The Queen."
Xue Xichen smiled gracefully and nodded to him. Xiao Liuyue smiled lightly and walked up the stone steps towards the pavilion where Xue Xichen was. Xue Xichen leaned against the railing in a lazy manner and looked at Xiao Liuyue leisurely. Step by step, he got closer and closer to her, until he finally came to her.
Xiao Liuyue bowed respectfully to Xue Xichen. "This is the silk handkerchief that the Queen dropped just now. I am lucky enough to pick up a special item and return it to its original owner."
Xiao Liuyue picked up the silk handkerchief and handed it to Xue Xichen. Xue Xichen took it gracefully. She covered her lips with the silk handkerchief and said with a smile: "Thank you, Mr. Xiao."
Xiao Liuyue answered with a smile. Her eyes fell on the harp on the stone table. It was clear to her eyes. "It turns out that it was the empress who was playing the harp just now. On a whim, she couldn't help but play the flute in harmony. It was because I was rude."
"Where is Mr. Xiao's smile?" Xue Xichen stood up gracefully and replied gracefully. "Young Master Xiao plays the flute very well. It really puts Charming Tong at his wits' end. Mr. Xiao, if there is nothing else to do today, the scenery here is beautiful. Why not play small Sit down for a moment and enjoy the beautiful scenery with me."
"Thank you, Queen, for the invitation. I'm sorry, but I'm disrespectful."
Xiao Liuyue returned the courtesy respectfully and sat down with him.
Xue Xichen picked up the teapot, poured a cup of tea, and handed it to Xiao Liuyue. Xiao Liuyue thanked her. He looked around the pavilion and saw no maids or eunuchs. He couldn't help but smile and said, "The Queen is traveling. Why are there no maids and eunuchs accompanying her?" Instead, I asked the Empress to pour tea for me personally. This is really frustrating for me."
Xue Xichen put down the teapot and sat down on the stone bench. She said softly: "I don't like the bustle. It's so comfortable to be leisurely alone. I asked them all to leave. They are not allowed to stay nearby or disturb me. quiet."
Xiao Liuyue sipped the tea quietly and said with a smile: "I see. The Queen's temperament is very similar to that of a person I know."
Xue Xichen smiled and narrowed her eyes. She joked: "Oh. To be able to make Mr. Xiao miss you so much. Could it be that he is Mr. Xiao's confidante."
"She is my junior sister."
"Oh. It turns out that the person Mr. Xiao is talking about is Miss Xue Xichen..."
Xiao Liuyue smiled and said: "Speaking of which, the Queen and Junior Sister have a long history."
Xue Xichen curled her lips and imitated Wang Yingjun's tone. She said arrogantly: "It's not about origins. It's just that I and her don't like each other. Now that she is dead, to be honest, I really have two or three points. Loneliness. You know, it's not easy to meet a rival in life."
Even though he said this, he was muttering to himself in his heart: That stinky bitch Wang Yingjun is not worthy of being my opponent at all.
"Junior sister, we parted ways at the martial arts competition. I didn't expect that we would meet in the palace. Life is indeed full of surprises."
Xiao Liuyue's sudden words made Xue Xichen's expression shrink. She almost thought that Xiao Liuyue had just eavesdropped on her conversation with Feng Biqing. However, on second thought, since Feng Biqing could infer her Identity. How could Xiao Liuyue not be able to tell if he was smart?
Although Xiao Liuyue doesn't understand Wang Yingjun, Xiao Liuyue understands Xue Xichen...
"I don't understand what Young Master Xiao means."
Refuse to admit it.
She wanted to see if Xiao Liuyue was testing her or if he really recognized her.
"Junior sister, why should I deny it? Although I don't understand the Queen's temperament, I know the temperament of my junior sister quite well. 'The incense array reaches the sky and penetrates Kyoto. The city is filled with golden armor'... Such a powerful and heroic poem is not the one that does not A false queen with no skills can write it."
Sure enough, she knew the problem was with that poem.
Xue Xichen thought sadly.
At that time, she shouldn't have been able to control her temper and accept Bai Dieyu's provocation. Now she was exposing her identity.
Since Feng Biqing and Xiao Liuyue have already guessed it, what about Feng Qingge...has he guessed it...
"Young Master Xiao. Look, my name is Xue Meitong, and your junior sister's name is Xue Xichen. Although both of us are named 'Xue', we were a family eight hundred years ago. However, Xue Xichen failed to assassinate the emperor and committed suicide out of fear of guilt. She jumped off the nine-story pagoda and her body has long been gone. But I have been staying well in the palace. How can I be the 'junior sister' that Mr. Xiao calls me?"
"Junior sister's abilities are not known to others. Am I still unclear about them? Escaping from death, changing one's appearance, sneaking into Chencang, sneaking into the palace, and disguising herself as a snow-enchanted pupil. Of course, junior sister has the ability to do such things."
"Mr. Xiao, the more you talk, the more confused I become."
Xiao Liuyue changed the topic and said leisurely: "The Queen and I have never been in contact with each other. Why did I leave a handkerchief in the pavilion to invite you today?"
Xue Xichen said with a smile: "If I say that we met by chance, I'm afraid Young Master Xiao will not believe it. Young Master Xiao thinks that I have no business keeping you."
"The Queen's intention, I dare not speculate on it."
"Why don't you, Mr. Xiao, come and tell me about it?"
"If the Queen is willing to admit that she is Xue Xichen, I will tell you."
The old fox kidnapped her.
Xue Xichen said with a smile: "Master Xiao, this is really difficult for others. Since I am not Xue Xichen, how can I admit that I am Xue Xichen?"
Xiao Liuyue answered with the same smile: "Yes or no. The Queen knows it in her heart. I also know it in my heart."
Xue Xichen "..."
Xiao Liuyue, you are indeed an old fox. Your words are impeccable. You are three points more difficult to deal with than Mu Qingfei.
However, since she has made up her mind to fight to the death and refuse to admit her guilt, she is not afraid of being tested by Xiao Liuyue.
"Mr. Xiao, you are really embarrassing me by saying this."
After saying that, she shook her head slowly, showing a worried look.
Xiao Liuyue picked up the tea cup and gently blew the tea foam floating on the water. She said softly: "Junior sister, you were originally Xue Meitong. Now you just regain your identity. You kill your enemies. As you have always done. It’s normal to have a character that requires revenge. Why do you need to deny it?”
Xue Xichen babbled. "Young Master Xiao, when you say this, I really don't know what to say. I am Xue Mei Tong. I am just Xue Mei Tong. That's all."
Xiao Liuyue said calmly: "Okay. Since junior sister is so insistent, senior brother cannot force it. Junior sister, you have always been very independent. I believe this time, you must have your own reasons."
