193 “Drunken Bones (Guyan 1v1 High H)” Jin Gui

In the Imperial Garden, the sun shines through the winter mist on the stone path, and several golden osmanthus trees bloom quietly.Golden flowers are dotted on the branches like stars, exuding an elegant and fragrant fragrance, like a wisp of warm wind, passing through the cold air and refreshing into the heart.The palace walls are silent and the shadows of the flowers are swaying. On this winter day, even the fragrance of golden osmanthus softens the chilly season.

The osmanthus flowers on the golden osmanthus tree trembled slightly in the cold wind, and the petals were already covered with a thin layer of frost, crystal clear, like a fine silver net, shining with cold light.Biluo stood under the golden osmanthus tree holding an empty basket, and for a moment she didn’t know what to do.

Last night, her mother-in-law told her that she wanted to eat the sweet-scented osmanthus plum soup she made today. It was rare that her mother was willing to eat something other than preserved fruits, so she was happy to make the soup for her.It’s winter now, but the aroma of golden osmanthus is still strong and sweet. It’s not cloying, and it’s the best choice for making sour plum soup.

In the past, she always used a stick to knock down the sweet-scented osmanthus, but this time she didn’t expect that the petals were already covered with a layer of frost, making it extremely difficult to knock them off.She looked around carefully and saw no one nearby, so she suddenly had the idea of ​​climbing a tree and picking flowers.

Bi Luo didn’t think much about it. When she was in the mansion, she would often climb trees to pick flower petals for her young lady and make them into sweets. She was already used to this kind of thing.Climbing trees was already something she was familiar with.

She hung the empty basket on her arm, then gently grabbed the tree trunk and climbed nimbly along the branches, occasionally brushing the cool petals between her fingers.With a light figure and skillful movements, she climbed up step by step, finally stopping on a branch and picking off the frost-covered golden osmanthus flowers. The fragrance of the flowers floated in the wind and filled the cold air.

Suddenly there was a sound of light footsteps under the tree, and Biluo’s heart suddenly tightened. She vaguely recognized the footsteps that seemed to be… Huo Sui’s.Her fingertips paused as she picked flowers, and her heartbeat accelerated involuntarily. A glimmer of expectation flashed through her eyes. She nervously and hurriedly glanced down through the gaps between the leaves, and sure enough, she saw the familiar figure she hadn’t seen for many days.

He stood under the tree, looking around with a pair of sharp eyes, as if looking for something.

At that moment, Bi Luo seemed to be in a dream.The sudden longing in her heart made her want to get closer to Huo Sui involuntarily, and she would be satisfied if she could even look at him one more time.The tip of her heart softened slightly, and her breathing became rapid.She had never seen Huo Sui since the last separation, just like two rivers that were not supposed to intersect, but returned to their respective banks without disturbing each other.She desperately told herself not to think about him anymore and not to recall what he said to her in the camp, but that scene could never be erased from her mind, and Huo Sui’s figure kept lingering in her mind.

At this moment, she didn’t even dare to ask for anything extravagantly from him. She just hoped that through the cover of branches and leaves, she could take one more look at him quietly so that this secret joy could stay with her for a long time.Thinking like this, Bi Luo turned slightly to hide herself more secretly, and quietly took a few glances in Huo Sui’s direction.

Huo Sui, who has been fighting for many years, has amazing hearing. The tips of his ears move slightly, as if he hears strange noises in the trees.He seemed to be aware of it and raised his head suddenly, as if he suddenly met her burning eyes.

Bi Luo’s heart tightened, her foot slipped in panic, a cry of surprise escaped her lips, her body lost balance, and she fell downwards.Her heart skipped a beat. The position she was climbing was a bit high, and she would probably be seriously injured if she fell like this.

She closed her eyes subconsciously, but the expected pain did not come. She only felt a strong arm holding her tightly, warm and reliable.”Where’s the injury?”

Bi Luo suddenly raised her head, and before she could fully react, she met the eyes of the person she was thinking of. Her breath suddenly became suffocated, and her back became a little stiff.

As if aware of her nervousness, Huo Sui’s eyes flashed with a hint of sadness, which disappeared briefly.The next moment, he turned his head away with a stiff neck, but carefully put her down.”Next time, don’t do that kind of thing like climbing a tree again. No one will care if you fall to your death.”

Her face instantly heated up, feeling both shy and nervous.She suppressed the urge to raise her eyes and look at him again, but there were already turbulent ripples in her heart, but she could only pretend to be calm and say softly: “Thank you, General Huo.”

Huo Sui felt even more uncomfortable when he saw the embarrassed look on her face. He raised his steps slightly. He should have left to make her feel at ease, but he couldn’t move forward.He hadn’t seen her for a long time. After he understood his feelings for her, even after returning to the palace, he would occasionally quietly go to the place where she would hang out and take a peek at her. But since the last time they said goodbye, he said that he wanted Biluo to come to him by herself, he refrained from seeing her anymore.

He never expected that the girl would not react at all, and would treat him as a stranger when she returned to the palace.She was calm and calm, so calm that it was chilling. He was the only one trapped in this chaotic love. He wanted to get closer, but he hesitated every step, not knowing what to do.

He secretly cursed himself as “worthless”.

Then he turned around and said to Bi Luo, who was still lowering his head and pretending to be an ostrich, “What are you doing here? Why are you climbing the tree?” His tone was a little stiff, and he became a little regretful the moment he said the words. He touched the back of his neck, thinking about how to be gentler, so as not to push people further away.

Bi Luo seemed to have suddenly come to her senses. She raised her head and glanced at Huo Sui, who was dressed in military uniform. Her cheeks couldn’t help but blush a little, “I, I will pick some osmanthus and go back to make sour plum soup for the queen.”

Huo Suimu looked suspicious. He appeared here because he was ordered by the emperor to go to the imperial garden to find the petals of the tallest osmanthus tree.He walked around and found that no osmanthus flowers were in full bloom this season, and only the golden osmanthus bloomed in season. That’s why he came here to pick some petals and go back for business.

He raised his eyebrows and immediately forgot about the emperor’s mission.Huo Sui stepped forward and jumped up. His sword flashed and swept across the branches.After a few swipes, the golden color of the tree fell like rain, and pieces of sweet-scented osmanthus fell with the wind, like a quiet sweet-scented osmanthus rain.

Bi Luo looked up at the golden rain on the tree and was lost in thought.The petals fell on her hair and shoulders, as soft as snow, and her eyes gradually shone with light, as if she was stunned by this sudden romance.The corners of her lips raised slightly, and she murmured softly, “It’s so beautiful…”

When Huo Sui heard that whisper, the corners of his lips could not help but curl up slightly, and then they quickly curled up again, as if he was afraid of being discovered.He knelt down and picked up the petals on the ground one by one and put them into the empty basket in her hand. Seeing that she was still immersed in it, his eyes couldn’t help but smile a little, “Don’t you want to do the business?”

“Of course… I want it!” Her cheeks turned redder and she hurriedly knelt down to pick up the petals.Immediately, she pinched the hem of her clothes tightly with her fingertips and thanked her again.”Thank you, General.”

Huo Sui’s eyebrows were filled with a look of indolence, “Thank you like that?” His voice was lazy, but low and charming, making her ears tingle and her heartbeat dancing uncontrollably.”It’s so insincere.”

Bi Luo heard this and said anxiously: “What does the general want? As long as this slave can do it…”

Hearing her calling herself a slave again, Huo Sui frowned slightly and interrupted her next words.”You can definitely do it.” He glanced at the sweet-scented osmanthus in Biluo’s hand, and then said, “I want a piece of the sour plum soup you made. I’ll take it as a thank you gift.”

He paused for a moment and then spoke again, “But I don’t have time to go to the Yangxin Hall to look for you.”

Huo Sui raised his eyebrows, “I want you to come over and give it to me in person.” He lowered his expression and said in a slightly serious tone, “What? You don’t want to?”

Bi Luo shook her head hastily, it was just such a small thing, how could she not want to do it.Huo Suineng liked the food she made. She was happy and it was too late, so how could she not want to.Afraid that he would misunderstand her meaning, she hurriedly explained, “I, I am willing!”

Facing Bi Luo’s somewhat astonished eyes, Huo Sui felt as if a wisp of spring breeze was blowing through his heart, and he felt that she was so cute.In this way, it can be regarded as her walking towards him in person.

If she is willing to come, he is not unwilling to take a few more steps towards her.
