Chapter 27: Meeting at the Bridge

 Lin Jingmo sat under the tall horse chestnut tree in the temple, and the white flowers all over the tree were fragrant.

Under the horse chestnut tree, the women brought tributes one after another to pray for luck. Holding five-color silk threads and nine-hole needles in their hands, they threaded the needles continuously under the moonlight to pray for luck.

Lin Jingmo knew that he was no match for them, so he just sat aside and watched their game with a smile.

After begging for skill with needlework, a woman will go to the Vega Temple to ask for a red ribbon, and tie the ribbon around the statue of Vega to pray for the blessings of Vega.

Just like this, Lin Jingmo waited and waited, from the bustle of people in the evening to the rush of people in the middle of the night. He didn't see Shang Shixu for two full hours.

It wasn't until someone reminded her that the night was getting late that she sat up from the stone bench, took off the curtain hat on her head, and asked for a red ribbon from the temple.

Lin Jingmo walked into the Hall of the Weaver Girl, knelt in front of the statue of the Weaver Girl, closed her eyes, clasped her hands, and prayed softly: "Your Highness, the Weaver Girl, I sincerely pray that I can discuss the timing with my husband and tie the red rope early, and the white head will be knotted forever."

..." She raised her bright eyes to look at the statue and said sincerely: "I... really really admire Shang Shixu, and I also miss him... I really want him to be equally happy with me!"
After saying that, she didn't get up for a long time. She nodded and said a few words silently before getting up and tying the ribbon next to the statue like other women.

Lin Jingmo stood alone by the canal bridge, looking at the lanterns floating in the river, and smiled lightly. When he thought that Shang Shixu had not come, he immediately grimaced: Is there really so much going on in the Hubu Yamen?

/p>

She leaned on the bridge and raised her head to look at the sky. The stars were particularly bright tonight. The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl could only meet each other on this day of the year.

They met once, but their longing for them lasted forever. Unlike him and Shang Shixu, who lived in the same Shang mansion but could not see each other.

Thinking of this, she sat on the bridge disappointedly. A figure suddenly appeared. She raised her head and a smile suddenly appeared on her face: "Husband..."

Before she could finish speaking, Shang Shixu reached out and pulled her into his arms. The tall man wrapped Lin Jingmo completely in his body and held her tightly for a long time without letting go.

Lin Jingmo was confused and was hugged by Shang Shixu, her eyes widened. She flickered her eyes and was about to ask a question, but Shang Shixu spoke: "Did you hear... my heartbeat?"

He suddenly let go of Lin Jingmo and stretched out his hand to distance the two of them.

"Heartbeat?" Lin Jingmo was confused by the question. Her heart almost forgot to beat for a moment. Where did she have the intention to pay attention to his heartbeat?

Shang Shixu looked at her coldly: "My heartbeat didn't change at all when I hugged you."

Are changes needed?

Lin Jingmo tilted his head and thought carefully in his mind: If it changes...it is true that every time Shang Shixian is around, his heartbeat will change, especially when he hugs me and...

Thinking of this, Lin Jingmo smiled sheepishly at Shang Shixu.

Shang Shixu glanced away with impatient eyes and said, "I don't like you as much as you like me. Do you understand?"

Lin Jingmo froze on the spot after hearing this.

Shang Shixu immediately took out the red ribbon that Lin Jingmo had just asked for from his arms.

Lin Jingmo stared at the ribbon in his hand: This is...

Shang Shixu released his hand and threw it into the river. Lin Jingmo saw this and hurriedly reached out to stop it, but the ribbon still floated away in the wind until it fell into the water.

Lin Jingmo looked at the ribbon that was drifting away, her eyes gradually filled with tears, and she murmured softly: "Why..."

"What's the reason?" Shang Shixu interrupted her. He reached out and pulled Lin Jingmo to face him. His tone was as cold as ice: "Who is Lin Jingmo? Your father is the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel.

How could your sister, who is a queen, admire me, a poor student? You once told me that you just wanted a decent husband, and at that time, I was the most beautiful man in the world!"

Lin Jingmo raised her head and shed tears. Her eyes were full of sincerity and she said: "That's not the case. Daddy said..."

"What can your father tell you?" Shang Shixu sneered: "Hey, do you want to know what Lin Jingmo was like before he lost his memory? You like to trample others under your feet, so that you are happy! You are mean to others, and your heart

Vicious, even you don't hide your cruelty! You treat your servants harshly, beating and scolding at every turn! Not only that, my mother is already delirious and has a child-like temperament, so you have to beat her too! Your maid

, I grew up with you, but you forced her to marry a butcher. Mother Cao was your wet nurse. She offended you and was kicked out of the house by you to starve to death! You are unruly, vicious, stingy and harsh. About you

There are a lot of rumors out there! Has he told you?"

Lin Jingmo's tears couldn't stop flowing down like broken beads. She listened in astonishment to the past events that Shang Shixu kept mentioning. She had no impression at all, but was unable to refute: These things... I did them all.

Did you download it?

Shang Shixu looked at Lin Jingmo and continued: "I, Shang Shixu, have read the books of sages and sages, and I also know that a gentleman should not stand behind a dangerous wall. If your father hadn't been able to help me, do you think I would have married a poisonous person?"

Will my wife go home? How can I be happy with you and love you?"

But Lin Jingmo covered her ears with tears and begged: "Don't say it anymore, don't say it anymore."

Shang Shixu had no intention of stopping. He stretched out his hand to pull Lin Jingmo's hand covering his ears away, and said word by word: "Listen, I, Shang Shixu, will never fall in love with Lin Jingmo."

Lin Jingmo used all her strength to push Shang Shixu away, and then shook her head in pain. She didn't know how to explain. She had already forgotten the past, so she had to turn around and run away.

Seeing Lin Jingmo running away and Shang Shixu paralyzed on the bridge, he suddenly remembered something, stood up and plunged into the river until he held the red ribbon tightly.

As early as when Lin Jingmo prayed for the blessing of the Weaver Girl to tie the red rope, Shang Shixu was standing on the other side of the statue, with countless red ribbons covering half of his face, and his expression could not be seen.

Even earlier, he arrived before Lin Jingmo came, but he did not appear in front of her. Instead, he kept hiding somewhere beside her and looked at her infatuatedly. His eyes did not leave for two whole hours.

Lin Jingmo watched her curious smile as she stared at the women threading needles, watched her disappointment when she waited under the tree and didn't see him, and also heard her praying in front of the statue.

The red rope is tied early, the white head is together forever... Can we do it?

Shang Shixu never imagined that he once hated her so much that he wanted to do everything possible to kill her, but now he also began to hope for a harmonious relationship with her.

For a moment he was about to come out to see her, but then suddenly stopped because he understood that he was not just an ordinary servant, he had so many burdens on him that he still wanted to cling to Chen Mian, the Secretary of the Central Committee.

It is true that Chen Mianzheng and Lin Yuanzhi are old enemies. He will not allow himself to fall in love with Lin Jingmo. Being with Lin Jingmo will also lose Chen Mianzheng's trust. He does not hesitate to tell Chen Mianzheng his true identity just so that one day he can

Revenge must not fall short now.

Moreover, it is easy to hide with an open gun, but difficult to guard against a concealed arrow. It was really easy for Chen Mian to kill Lin Jingmo.

He saw Lin Jingmo tying the ribbon, but he turned around carefully to avoid being discovered by her. When she walked out of the Weaver Girl Hall, he walked to where Lin Jingmo tied the red ribbon and took off the ribbon.
