Hengzhi disappeared during dinner, and she found him in front of a cliff after searching for a long time.

He stood tall and tall, quietly playing the jade flute with his back to her. The silver-white moonlight shone on him like a gauze, and his green silk hair flew like a waterfall in the night wind. The night wind rolled up his clothes, which were as clear as orchids.

The white color makes him look like an immortal, making people dare not look at him.

And the tune he played was the "Water Melody Song Tou" that she had taught him.

She looked at him quietly not far away. He noticed her approach, but did not stop until the song ended, and then turned his head.

Her snow-like skin glowed as clear and moist as jade under the moonlight, her water-blue eyes were sparkling, and her phoenix eyes were slightly raised, making the flowers eclipse and dazzling the heaven and earth.

He called her softly: "Qing'er..."

She watched him stretch out his hand towards her, and she slowly approached, but when she was one step away from him, he suddenly pressed her into his arms with great force, as if he wanted to rub her into his own bones and blood, but

But she couldn't feel any pain.

Because at this moment, her heart hurt even more.

He is leaving tomorrow, leaving her, leaving Piaomiao Peak, and returning to Dongmo.

She cried and said that she wanted him to take her away, but he said that the time had not yet come. After he had taken care of everything in Dongmo, he would go to Xichu in person to propose marriage to his father, the queen, and his mother, making her his wife, his only wife.

She still remembers the burning feeling of his tears on her neck, and still remembers his expression when he solemnly handed the blood jade pendant to her. He said:

"This is the symbol of our Helian royal family. Every prince has one with his or her name engraved on it. It is only given to the woman he loves most in his life."

But now, she lost the love token he gave her. She beat her head angrily, blaming herself for being careless.

She was secretly annoyed when suddenly a quiet flute sound came vaguely to her ears, just like what Hengzhi played for her that night, sad and sad...

Her heart skipped a beat, and without thinking any more, she climbed up, put on her clothes, and followed the sound of the flute to find her.

It was late autumn at this time, the air was crisp, the sun was shining brightly, the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant in the imperial garden. She was not at all depressed by the cold weather, and her mood improved unconsciously.

But the doubts in my heart are deeper. Under such prosperous autumn scenery, why is this flute player so sad?

After passing through the flower gallery filled with blooming flowers, she still didn't see the flute player. She looked up and saw a moon cave door. The sound of the flute came faintly from inside. She paused and then stepped in.

Inside the Moon Cave Gate is an abandoned garden. The wild grass has grown to about half a person's height. There is a small pond in the middle of the garden with green duckweeds floating on it. A few hibiscus trees on the right side of the pond are just right and their branches and leaves have never been pruned.

, stretching wildly, some even sticking out of the wall. The red hibiscus flowers stand out against the greenery of the garden, making them even more delicate and beautiful as fire.

Mu Qingwan has always been fond of this kind of natural scenery. She was in a better mood now and walked in. Walking along the path made of bluestone slabs, the breeze blew, bringing with it the fragrance of green grass, which made people feel

More and more peaceful.

The sound of the flute gradually became clearer. After walking along the path, there was a row of rockeries covered with moss. Mu Qingwan raised her head and her eyes narrowed slightly.

A man is leaning on the snow-white Taihu stone. He is wearing a scarlet robe. His long raven-colored hair is loosely tied with a scarlet hairband and casually draped over his shoulders. The pale golden sunlight dapples through the gaps between the trees.

It fell on him, casting a layer of faint golden shimmer around him, and his bright and picturesque face could be seen in the shimmer.
