The hotel arranged by the female officer for the two is located in the northern part of the city. It should be the most advanced area of ​​local development. It is backed by a bustling commercial center, and it is very convenient for food, clothing, housing and transportation.

On the first night of staying in Taoyuan, due to limited time, Luo Xingyi and Qu Lin just wandered around in the nearby commercial plaza and chose a specialty restaurant that is said to be very famous in the local area. After dinner, I had a preliminary understanding of the living habits of the Taoyuan people.

Before they had enough time to understand the whole picture of the Holy City, early the next morning, a piece of news intervened and robbed the attention of the two of them—the Queen of Taoyuan learned that the two of them had come here According to the news, they planned to meet them in person, set up a dinner in the palace, and sincerely invited the two of them to the banquet.

Hearing the news at that time, Luo Xingyi was having breakfast and was thinking about it for a long time, so he asked Qu Lin, "Qu Lin, tell me the truth, which country are you the prince of?"

Qu Lin: "Don't think too much, I'm not."

Luo Xingyi put down the spoon in his hand, leaned his elbows on the table, crossed his hands and rested his chin, and analyzed rationally with him one by one: "Look, as soon as you come to Taoyuan Township, Mr. Xia will let you in after showing your face; 'Cultivate a flower house', Ms. Dai has worked hard and arranged various matters for you in person; now that you have entered Taoyuan, the queen will personally meet you... If this kind of privileged class treatment is not the diplomatic standard and international practice, could it be that this Taoyuan has you alone? Shares?"

Looking at Luo Xingyi's face full of puzzles, Qu Lin stretched out his hands and rubbed his hard-care hair, with a natural and calm expression, as if he was not destroying the fruits of other people's labor but helping.

After messing Luo Xingyi's hair thoroughly, he felt happy and said, "No, don't think about it, it's all a coincidence."

"Tsk!" Luo Xingyi was furious after being rubbed until his head exploded, "Qu Lin, what's the matter with you! You need to be cured when you wake up!"

-

At six o'clock in the evening, the vehicle to pick up and drop off the distinguished guests stopped at the designated parking lot on time. Luo Xingyi and Qu Lin both opened the doors, one left and one right, and got out of the car.

In order to show respect to the queen, both of them put on formal clothes.The style is not complicated, but it is appropriate everywhere, and the figure and temperament of the two are vividly portrayed, and any more will seem excessive.

Luo Xingyi's black hair was tied behind his head, and even his bangs were combed with pomade, revealing a smooth and full forehead and jaw line, very energetic.Because of his well-defined facial features, sword eyebrows and star eyes, even if he is dressed with long hair, he is not at all feminine. A jewel in his hair and a pair of cufflinks complement each other and are radiant.

And Qu Lin next to him was wearing a black suit, as usual, he was meticulously dressed, not a single wrinkle could be found.

Maybe it's because he always dresses casually to show others that he is cold, but whenever he puts on fine and elegant formal clothes, it will give people a refreshing feeling.Mingming's expressionless face remained the same as before, and even his appearance did not change a bit, but because of the slightly casual dress, he revealed a trace of elegance and gentlemanly atmosphere, which was pleasing to the eye.

The escort maid who had been waiting for a long time saw the two people who were about equal in appearance, her eyes lit up, and she didn't know which one to look at for a while.It wasn't until the sound of the car door closing in the next second that she remembered her responsibilities, smiled calmly, and guided the two of them respectfully and politely: "The distinguished guest is here, but we are far away to welcome you. The dinner is being held in the garden. Honorable guest, please follow me into the palace."

The imperial palace in the holy city of Taoyuan is said to be an imperial palace, but it is actually a complex of buildings whose symbolic meaning is greater than its actual appearance. It is built near mountains and rivers, stretching in the lake and mountains.

Perhaps because of advocating their unique "Natural People" religion, the architectural style of Taoyuan City is very retro. From the Taoyuan Township outside the gate, it can be seen that there is a bit of ancient customs in a peaceful corner, which is quite different from the outside world.

The imperial palace in front of me is no exception. It is not so much a palace as it is a garden with verdant flowers and plants.

Because today's dinner queen only invited Luo Xingyi and Qu Lin, the scale was not large, so she just set up a banquet in the garden as a formality.

At this time, the banquet had not yet started, and the maid leading the way led the two of them to the side hall where the guests were waiting.

Taoyuan's imperial palace looks unattractive from the outside, but the inside embodies exquisite taste everywhere.Uniquely shaped lamps, thread-embroidered screens, authentic paintings and calligraphy that were almost lost in the chaotic times of the end of the world hang on the walls, and the tea set is a set of beautiful enamel porcelain.

It is luxurious, but it does not make people feel that it is a rough pile of nouveau riche. Everything is arranged with great thought, which shows that it is really elegant.

Even in the corner of the stairs just passed, there is a grand piano.

All the way to see here, although he has not seen the deity yet, Luo Xingyi has already nodded to the Queen and Pope of Taoyuan in his heart: it is a person.

He appraised the palace and the owner of the palace in a dignified manner, and found a seat to sit down at random. The maid who led the way couldn't help smiling, and said appreciatively: "Mr. Luo Such a natural posture doesn't look like someone entering the palace for the first time, many foreign guests who meet the queen can't be as calm as Mr. Luo."

Luo Xingyi said in his heart that I, a person who has been in the office of a national leader, come to a mayor's house for a meal. What is there to be afraid of?He raised his hand and pointed at Qu Lin, and smiled at the maid, "What am I, that one is really calm."

Compared to Luo Xingyi who occasionally had to observe the surroundings, Qu Lin had no interest in this place and kept his eyes on it. Entering the palace felt like coming home.Facing the room full of jewelry and antiques, let alone curiosity, he didn't even raise his eyelids.

It seems to have been commonplace for a long time, and I don't think there is anything special about it.

This kind of demeanor cannot be cultivated by a casual rich family, so Luo Xingyi couldn't help bringing up the topic again: "Qu Lin, don't you really want to tell me which country you are the prince of? ?”

Qu Lin sat down on the sofa, turned his head when he heard the words, and waved to him.

"Is there really an explanation?" Luo Xingyi was overjoyed, his gossip spirit was burning, and he happily ran over to listen to the whisper.

After the person approached, Qu Lin leaned back, with his knees slightly apart, and sat in front of him in a dignified and dignified royal posture, propping his head up to tease him: "What would you do if I were a prince?" ?”

Luo Xingyi thought about it for a second: "Walking out of a step that no relatives would recognize on Taoyuan Street?"

Qu Lin endured a smile, put away this attitude of looking down on the world, and pierced his unrealistic delusion, "I'm sorry, I'm not." But he also found it amazing that after so long, Luo Xingyi was really not at all. Do you know about his family affairs?It's obviously not a private file.

So he asked, "Did you never check on me?"

"No," Luo Xingyi replied as a matter of course, "I don't look at family background when I make friends. Why do I check you? To see if we are well-connected, right? As long as the three views are compatible, I don't bother to waste that effort. If you want to tell me, Of course you'll tell me, won't you?"

But after Luo Xingyi finished speaking, after thinking about it, he felt that he couldn't talk too much. What if Qu Lin really had some serious background, that is, the kind of domineering family that controls the lifeblood of the global economy?

With such a joke in mind, he thought about it for a while, and then said, "Why don't I tell my secretary that I want all your documents within five minutes?"

While the two were talking, a maid outside the door knocked on the door lightly, came in and whispered something to the maid who led the way.The maid who led the way smiled slightly after hearing this, and reminded: "Your Majesty has already moved to the garden. Please follow me to the table, two distinguished guests."

coming.Luo Xingyi and Qu Lin looked at each other, put away their joking and relaxed expressions, stood up, adjusted their clothes, and walked out with the maid.

They said they were going to sit for dinner, but the expressions of both of them were much more guarded than when they first came.

There is no doubt that the queen came for Qu Lin this time. After all, Luo Xingyi was a person who had just crawled out of the "Moon Palace" and was unknown. How could He De let the queen invite him personally?I just don't know if she summoned her this time to recruit Qu Lin, or to start a grand banquet.

The garden is located in the southeast corner of the palace. There is a running water system, and many exotic flowers and plants are planted in it, but the most eye-catching one is the grace flower forest in the center.

The pink and purple flowers are as gorgeous as the sunset, and there is a different kind of softness in the dim light that is gradually dimming.Just standing there quietly made other flowers and plants look like vulgar powder.

Luo Xingyi had just stepped into the garden with his front feet, and his back feet hadn't completely left the ground. For some reason, his heart jumped suddenly, like some kind of omen, he heard the maid announcing the arrival of the Queen and the Pope.

There was nothing unusual about him along the way, he was not in a hurry, he was still planning whether to take advantage of Miss Dai's privilege to find someone, but at this moment, he turned his head inexplicably and looked to the left rear.

——However, the direction he looked at was empty, and there was nothing.

The maid following noticed Luo Xingyi's doubts, and asked, "Mr. Luo, is something missing?"

Luo Xingyi shook his head, feeling that he felt a little unclear. He turned around and saw that Qu Lin was also looking at him. Just as he was about to tell him about this weird illusion, he heard a strange voice. Not far from the right, there was a sound: "Luo Xingyi...?"

With surprise, hesitation, disbelief, and trembling.

The strange woman's voice was not loud, but it was like a thunderclap on the ground, almost blowing Luo Xingyi's sky cap.

In this numbing void, he turned his head little by little, looking to his right side.

But this time, he found the right direction and saw a middle-aged woman with a graceful face looking at him in a daze.

She is gorgeously dressed and her hair is pulled back. She looks quite old, but because she is well maintained, she doesn't look old.And because she has been in a high position all year round, she has a very low temperament, and there is a deep wrinkle between her brows, which makes her look solemn and stable.

But at this moment, the blank expression on her face was exactly the same as that of Luo Xingyi.

Her wine-red pupils, which are different from ordinary people, are exactly the same as Luo Xingyi.

Who is she?

Luo Xingyi's first thought was that he didn't know him, but after watching for a long time, he realized that this person was actually somewhat familiar to him.In particular, the upturned corner of her eye and the tear mole under her eye are still very familiar in her memory.

He seemed to know who it was.

But this change is too big, the sky is turned upside down!It's just a moment of sleep, Baiyun Canggou, the young old friend is approaching old age.

"You...I..." Luo Xingyi tried to speak, but you and I couldn't form a word for a long time, as if we didn't dare to recognize each other.

The crackling in his heart was like setting off firecrackers, it was noisy and noisy, which made him unable to think, and it took him a long time to ask a name: "Ji Shuyao?"

Hearing him say this name, the middle-aged woman shook violently, and subconsciously supported her husband's arm beside her.Seeing this, the husband patted her hand reassuringly, as if giving her courage, and held her hand.

The middle-aged woman calmed down and responded, "It's me."

it's me.

Two words.

Simple, but sure.

The moment he heard these two words, Luo Xingyi had a feeling that everything had fallen into place, even his soul was very well placed.

It's like a traveler who has been wandering for a long time, carrying his luggage on his back for a long time, and finally no longer has to chase, no need to rush, no need to worry about where he is going tomorrow.

As if he had lifted a heavy burden, he let out a long breath of relief.Then, with a "puchi", he laughed, but couldn't help it, and called out the old title very smoothly: "Captain."

Ji Shuyao saw that the kid was smiling, but she didn't hold back, and laughed: "So you're not dead yet."

Then she smiled, tears came into her eyes, "You're not dead." With sobs, Ji Shuyao took a good look at Luo Xingyi's appearance, from head to toe, with a full beard and tail, just like in memory Exactly the same, "You're fine, it's still the same as before..."

"It's still the same as before."

Having said that, she finally couldn't help it anymore, she covered her mouth and turned her face away, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Good to see you again."

The author has something to say

Jiyou said that he realized that Xingxing should be much bigger than Linlin. This is a sure year!

I said: Don't you think this is eating the upper and lower years at the same time?Although it stands to reason that there should be many stars in Dalin, in fact Qu Lin is 26 and Luo Xingyi is 22.I don’t know why I ate two flavors, it’s so exciting!
