Rebirth of the Phoenix

Meeting without joy

After a while, the third young master suddenly remembered something, and patted his palm with a folding fan, and said with a smile: "Young Master Ye has been busy with business recently. Maybe I haven't heard of it yet. The courtesan in Qunfanglou has changed hands, and the red-wrapping girl's art

The four seats were shocked and Miss Yunshang was defeated. Now she is the master of Fuyun Pavilion.”

The name "Hongzhuang" hit Yejiu's heart like a huge electric current.

His heart was paralyzed for a while, and his mind was also blank.

After a while, he endured the excitement in his heart, calmed down, and tried to use a calm tone tone, and said lightly "Oh".

Yue Yinghua blinked. Did he read it wrong just now? Why do you think Ye Jiu seemed very shocked?

But the shock came and went quickly. Before he could confirm, Ye Jiu returned to his indifferent expression.

"Mr. Ye is not interested in the matter of Miss Hongzhuang?" he asked.

Ye Jiu said lightly: "Will her chess skills be better than Miss Yunshang?"

Yue Yinghua smiled: "I came down with her and Miss Yunshang, and I feel that her chess style is more decisive and cruel than Miss Yunshang."

"Is that right?" Ye Jiu showed a little interest and smiled. "I heard from the third young master that I am a little interested in her chess skills."

Yue Yinghua said: "How about we invite her to practice chess skills?"

Ye Jiuheshou: "That's good."

Yue Yinghua smiled: "The girl Hongzhuang is not only talented but also looks very popular."

Ye Jiu said lightly again and looked out the window.

He didn't want to hear anyone spitting out the word "red makeup" in his mouth, which would make him feel very uncomfortable, just like a treasure hidden in his heart, being discovered and discussed.

So, he pretended to be very interested in the street outside the window and didn't want to give Yue Yinghua another chance to talk to him about "Red Makeup".

Why did he give this name? He thought to himself, with so many wonderful words and endless combinations, why did the new courtesan insist on giving the name "Red Makeup"?

Isn’t it better to give a more confusing, tempting, and special name? Why do you want to give a name like Hongzhuang?

It was simply unbearable! His eyes were darker, and he needed to ask that woman to change this name!

Yue Yinghua folded her fan to cover her face and stared at him.

Is it my own illusion? I always feel that Ye Jiu seems a little strange, irritable and angry?

He was unable to be sure, because Ye Jiu's expression was always so indifferent, and his emotions were not reflected. Even if a little fluctuation flashed occasionally, it was so fast that he could not catch it.

Amid the thoughts of the two, Qunfanglou arrived.

The carriage kept rushing into the secret parking point in the back garden, and the two got off and headed towards Fuyun Pavilion.

Before I saw the attic, I heard the beautiful tinging dong sound, as if the moonlight and the mountain spring, soothing people's hearts.

Ye Jiuyi heard the sound of the piano and could no longer walk, and his mind was blank.

The spring flowing under the moon! It was that song again! He played it countless times, but the sound of the piano he heard at this time was the closest he had heard the sound of Hongzhuang playing for the first time many years ago!

He will never forget and remember the sound of the piano at that time.

Time seems to have stopped.

However, the gap in his mind lasted only for a short while.

He quickly came to his senses, stabilized his body, calmed his eyes, and took a deep breath.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he saw the situation in front of him, he touched Yue Yinghua's sharp gaze, which shocked him again and did not breathe.

Yue Yinghua smiled: "Young Master Ye doesn't look very good. Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Ye Jiu forced a smile: "I didn't expect that I would hear the familiar sound of the piano here, which was almost exactly the same as what I played, and I was a little shocked."

Yue Yinghua laughed: "When I first heard the song played by the girl Hongzhuang, I was shocked. I almost thought that Young Master Ye had not actually gone to war and stayed secretly."

This time, the subtle changes on Ye Jiu's face were not hidden from his eyes.

Couldn’t Ye Jiu have any connection with that girl with red makeup?

Otherwise, how could Ye Jiu, who has always been in a state of no trouble, be lost for a moment?

Ye Jiu smiled slightly: "I wonder how long has this red-wrapping girl been here?"

Every time I hear the word "red makeup", the heart feels like I've been stabbed. Although it has become a habit, it still hurts very much.

Yue Yinghua said: "Just Master Ye is about to return to the court, it's been more than a month. Now, the girl Hongzhuang is famous all over the world, but there are very few people who can see her."

Ye Jiu said: "I am lucky today. Only after I get the light of the third young master can I see the girl Hongzhuang."

Yue Yinghua smiled: "It may not be that. Maybe seeing Mr. Ye is the luck of the girl Hongzhuang."

Ye Jiu smiled: "The third young master has over-rewarded."

While talking, Fuyun Pavilion had already appeared in the sight of the two of them.

By the window where flowers were almost embedded, a woman was wearing a pink dress and was playing the piano with her head down, calm, elegant and elegant.

Ye Jiu's steps floated slightly again, and he almost couldn't stand steadily.

At first glance, it was simply the reappearance of red makeup in my memory...

But, but... he quickly stood firm, and a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes. She was no longer there, no longer.

No matter how similar the scenery is, it is not the scenery of last year, and no matter how similar the people are, it is not the people of last year.

Thinking of this, his face returned to his usual indifference and there was no fluctuation any more.

Yue Yinghua saw his subtle expression in his eyes, and said nothing, but said to the little turtle behind him, "Go and inform me, and I said that the third young master brought a guest and asked to see the girl Hongzhuang."

The little turtle responded and ran towards Fuyun Pavilion.

At the end of the song, the woman in pink by the window stood up, looked around the people downstairs who were listening to the song, smiled and said with a blessing. She turned around and her graceful figure disappeared.

Everyone left regretfully, talking and talking in full praise.

The two of them came to the gate of Fuyun Pavilion. The maid was already waiting respectfully. As soon as they saw them, they said, "Three Young Master, Miss Hongzhuang is welcome."

Ye Jiu followed Yue Yinghua into Fuyun Pavilion, and he had no curiosity or affection for the new courtesan "Red Zhuang".

In his opinion, this woman is just a woman who has snatched the name and image of "Red Makeup"!

He didn't want to know what kind of person she was, he just wanted to find his baby and leave this ghost place.

Compared with the time when he left, there was no change. Even the purple clay teapot, celadon cup and the lilac flowers he liked on the table did not change, which made him even more disgusted: she knew she had lived before.

Is it a man, but don’t change the things he uses?

Going to the second floor, the gauze curtains are heavy, swaying lightly with the wind, like waves.

Behind the gauze curtain, a woman's quiet and beautiful figure appeared and faintly. No matter how cold Ye Jiu was, she was still lost for a moment and almost screamed out: "Hongzhuang?"

That's red makeup!

That must be Hongzhuang!

There is no need to see so clearly, he also knows that she is Hongzhuang in his memory and fantasy, and it is not bad at all!

He looked at the woman in a daze like a possessive person and walked over.

Hongzhuang stood in front of him, smiling with flowers, as beautiful as the first meeting.

He was staring at her blankly, and tears almost burst into tears in his eyes.

However, he had no tears, and his eyes became redder and had bloody colors.

This is the Hongzhuang he wanted to marry when he grew up!

The red makeup, who is over 16 years old, must be like this, and the quiet beauty is so beautiful.

It must be a dream!

For the first time, he dreamed of the living, growing up Hongzhuang, without resentment, without indifference, only the gentleness of the first meeting.

I hope this dream will last forever and never wake up.

However, a clear voice broke his most beautiful and only dream in the past six years.

"Three Young Master, welcome to Fuyun Pavilion! Is there another Young Master, I don't know what to call him?"

The curse was broken, everything was restored, Ye Jiu returned to the cold and dark reality, and despair arose in his heart.

It's just a dream after all!

Reality, there will never be such beauty and happiness!

Back in reality, he finally saw clearly that he thought it was a living red makeup, but in fact it was just a painting, a lifelike painting.

No matter how beautiful the painting is, it is not real - what a desperate reality!

The third young master said: "Miss Hongzhuang, this is Mr. Ye. He has just been named General Silhouette by the emperor. He will leave Beijing in a few days to take office. I brought Mr. Ye to see the girl because I wanted to play three-person Go with the girl, completely

Let’s get a taller one, and ask the girl for advice!”

"Young Master, please be polite!" Hongzhuang said quickly, "The third master is very skilled in chess. I am afraid that no one can surpass him in heaven. How dare I advise me? At least this young master Ye is also a man of the same kind, so his chess skills are naturally no problem.

I have to ask the two of you to show mercy at that time!"

She looked calm, but her heart was already filled with storms.

It's really him!

After not seeing each other for a year, he became more calm and more cruel, but he was still the person she remembered.

There were many words to say, but at this moment, she could only choke speechlessly and regard him as a stranger.

Ye Jiu's eyes moved away from the portrait and fell on her face.

In an instant, his eyes widened, his breathing became slightly rapid, and his face, which was almost bloodless, appeared blood red for the first time - this blood color was definitely not a surprise, but anger!

Extreme anger!

The eyes, which were always red, burst out with flame-like anger.

She dared... she actually stole Hongzhuang's name, pretended to be Hongzhuang, and appeared in front of him!

How could she get involved or stolen from Hongzhuang?

This thief! This robber! This robber! This woman deserves death!

Hongzhuang felt his anger, but calmly, with a pair of clear and bright big eyes, neat and white teeth as bright as pearls, and two dimples that were looming, looking at him in a bright sunshine: "Young Master Ye?"

Ye Jiu stared at her tightly, his anger was like the boiling magma below the ground, rushing through his limbs and bones, and it would burst out at any time, burning and melting everything around him!
