This palace maid is very careful.

Lu Jinxi listened and nodded, but did not answer, but just began to try to describe the legendary concubine Weiyi in her mind.

But before she could recall what she knew, an abrupt sound suddenly came from the convenience—

"Lady stay!"

Not to mention Lu Jinxi, even the palace servant who led the way was startled.

Although this place is still above the palace road, why is it still in the palace ban, who dares to be so presumptuous and make a loud noise?

The palace servant who led the way stopped.

Lu Jinxi felt that the voice was unfamiliar, and the sense of unease that had disappeared before appeared again. She frowned secretly, stopped and looked back.

In that instant, it was right.

It was one of several officials who had previously stood on Dan Chi in charge of the ceremony.

The stature is not burly and tall, but rather thin.

Wearing a white pheasant suit of a fifth-grade civil official on his body, it gave people a feeling of not fitting well and too loose. The face is handsome, the facial features are clean and elegant, and the eyes that look at people reveal a kind of natural softness. It can be seen that he is not someone with deep scheming or a strong personality.

He also held a book with cinnabar in his hand, which seemed to be an official of the Ministry of Rites.

Just now, he suddenly made a sound and stopped Lu Jinxi.

At this moment, after taking a few steps quickly, he panted slightly and stopped in front of her about two feet away to look at her. In those clear and moist eyes, there is a bit of real joy, overflowing with fullness of friendship, and almost tears...

It is the bitterness that contains thousands of words, but cannot express a single word.

At this moment, Lu Jinxi realized that something was wrong almost instantly.

But it's too late.

She had never seen the man in front of her, and she never expected to see him in such a situation. Everything was unexpected!

Even the highest pretender can't make an effective response in such a short moment.

At the moment of seeing the other party, the unfamiliarity and confusion subconsciously revealed had completely betrayed her. If you change the situation and change the person, she may be able to make up for it seamlessly.

But at this moment, what she was facing was a man who grew up with the Lu family and loved her deeply.

Everything has been in vain.

The man standing in front of him, looking at her, finally changed slowly.

Lu Jinxi could clearly see that the joy and bitterness in his eyes slowly disappeared like a low tide, but what gradually appeared was endless cold and despair.

It seemed that he had doubts about her identity for a long time, but he didn't expect it, and he confirmed it at a glance.

Although she had already heard the unusual rumors of the General's Mansion and had doubts, the letter, written in the same handwriting as usual, dispelled her suspicions.

He thought that even if she rejected him, it would be fine as long as she had a good time.

Knowing that she was going to the palace banquet today, although he tried his best to control it, he couldn't hide his joy. For this reason, he even asked Ping to be transferred to the Ministry of Rites and became the chief minister of the Qing officials, just to see her at this moment.

But this is the side...

It shattered the little remaining hope before, all self-deceiving fantasies.

The woman standing in front of him had the same facial features as the Lu Jinxi he knew well.

But there has never been a feeling so piercing, so clear-

Not her.

The book that was attached to the ceremonial device in his hand almost fell to the ground. Song Zhiyan had to use all his strength to hold it firmly and to stop the uncontrollable trembling.

That question was almost squeezed out of the gap between the teeth, with a kind of oppression!

"who are you?!"

Chapter 85

was spotted.

Such a cognition, Lu Jinxi already knew it almost the moment the other party's eyes fell on him and changed. So when the other party clenched her teeth and forced to ask this sentence, she didn't feel any surprise.

There is only a rare loss, a rare daze.

Countless thoughts passed by quickly like the water in the turbulent flow.

Is it to admit it in front of the other party, or pretend that the previous flaw has not appeared, play a qualified Lu family, and try to confuse the other party?

Admit it, it's definitely not a good way, because she doesn't know Song Zhiyan at all;

But knowing the tragic love between him and the Lu family, asking her to deceive this man who had clearly seen her identity, she felt a strange sense of resistance in her heart.

Lu Jinxi is by no means a good person, but people's hearts are full of flesh.

Under the increasingly aggressive eyes of the other party, she did not come up with a countermeasure, so she looked back at the other party with a bit of dazed thinking.

She didn't speak, Song Zhiyan became more and more angry.

He just thought that she was guilty, or that she was exposed, and was frightened. But when he noticed her state and eyes at the moment, he was full of questioning words, but strangely he couldn't say it.

Maybe it's the almost identical face, maybe it's her dazed look at the moment, she really can't see any malicious two factions.

The palace maid behind Lu Jinxi was completely frightened by the scene in front of her.

No one thought that a foreign official would suddenly run in and say something inexplicable to the general's wife.

For the time being, she couldn't understand the problem here, she just thought that Lu Jinxi was as frightened as she was.

When the two looked at each other, the atmosphere became cold and condensed.

Song Zhiyan only felt heartache, hoping that he guessed wrong, but rationally told him that he was not. The woman in front of him is definitely not the Lu Jinxi he knew!

Seeing that the other party was silent for a long time and still did not speak, his lips parted, and he was about to ask again: "I ask you, what are you—"

"Master Song!"

But no one thought that at this moment, at the gate of the palace behind, a tall figure suddenly appeared. When the visitor saw Song Zhiyan, he seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then he opened his mouth with a smile as if he recognized it.

"Why are you here?"

Song Zhiyan's words were interrupted immediately.

This voice sounded somewhat unfamiliar to him, but he felt that it was not a voice he often heard before. Tie Qing's complexion has not improved in the slightest, he turned his head along the sound, and saw a powerful person who had almost no intersection with him in the past——

Gu Juefei.

Wearing the official uniform that was obviously not worthy of his talent, he was dyed with a little Gao Kuang with an elegant artistic conception. Standing at the gate of the palace, the breeze lifted the corners of his robes, where does he look like an official in this court?

Just like a fairy.

But at this moment, the other party looked at him with a strange curiosity, and his scrutinizing eyes still fell on Lu Jinxi who was not far in front of him.

At that moment, Song Zhiyan's heart froze!

He has been admitted to the Hanlin Academy for many years, even earlier than Gu Juefei, but his status is very different. On weekdays, there are few opportunities to even talk to him. But Gu Juefei's ability, he has long known.

After all, both of them grew up in the capital, both of them were from the imperial examination, and they worked together for a short time in the Hanlin Academy.

Now the other party's eyes are wandering between him and Lu Jinxi, as if he is searching for something.

This kind of knowledge immediately made Song Zhiyan feel the danger, and at the same time, the back of his head suddenly cooled down: this place is in the forbidden area of ​​the palace, but one of his foreign officials stopped the general's wife on the palace road. What do other people think when they see it?

He is living a lifeless life, it doesn't matter, but what about Lu Jinxi?

As soon as he turned his eyes, he landed on that familiar face.
