Rebirth: The Gatekeeper

Just after Bei Tangjin gave Qiurong orders, he heard the sound of a flute. There was a sentence mixed in the sound of the flute, and it took her some effort to hear it.

Qiurong saw Bei Tangjin's strange expression, as if she was listening carefully, and was extremely surprised. Why couldn't she hear anything?It's just that she didn't bother Bei Tangjin, but waited until Bei Tangjin asked her to fetch Yuxiao before she moved.

"Qiu Rong, go and make arrangements, I'm going out soon." Bei Tang Jin looked a little strange, but soon regained his composure. Qiu Rong was very suspicious, but went out without asking a word.

Bei Tangjin picked up the jade flute and played the same piece. This piece was called "Floating Dust" and it was written by her master back then. The person playing the flute just now used sound transmission, so only she could hear it.

She returned quickly, and Qiurong also arranged everything at this time, but this character did not pose any threat to her, but she was a little uneasy.

Bei Tangjin traveled by light car, with simple luggage, and arrived at the Hanyan Lake that the man invited in less than an hour.

The water of Hanyan Lake is still misty and smoky. Standing on the shore, you can feel the cold wind blowing from the center of the lake.

Bei Tangjin took a small boat and rowed towards the boats wandering in the center of the lake.

Before she got on the boat, she saw a young man in snow clothes standing against the wind, his snow clothes fluttering, and he was looking into the distance, thoughtful.Seeing Bei Tang Jin coming up, he turned around quickly, his black hair flying, his eyes smiling, and said, "It's so cold, I invite Jin'er to come, and ask Jin'er to take care of my senior brother."

Bei Tangjin smiled faintly, and said, "We are from the same family, so you don't need to be so polite."

Mei Ningxuan also smiled lightly, looked into the distance again, with a slightly strange expression, and then said to Bei Tangjin: "Jin'er is tired from traveling, let's go in and have some hot tea."

Bei Tangjin said humbly, "Thank you, senior brother."

Bei Tangjin followed Mei Ningxuan into the cabin. This is also an extremely gorgeous painting boat, but the furnishings inside are elegant and clean, without any sign of luxury from a wealthy family.

Bei Tangjin knew that this painting boat must belong to Mei Ningxuan, so he invited her here.

"Master often praises that the cedar needles you make are very fresh and clear, with a slight fragrance. Today, the senior brother will make a pot of cedar needles for Jin'er."

Mei Ningxuan smiled lightly, and began to fiddle with the tea set to make tea for Bei Tangjin. In this spare time, Bei Tangjin looked around the furnishings of the cabin. The coffee table, screen, table, soft couch, incense burner, and incense table were all complete. But they are all elegant and generous, not gorgeous but refined, especially the orchid plum vase with a yellow glaze as the background, with a few snow-white plum blossoms in it, which makes the whole cabin have a faint fragrance, which is more elegant than the incense in the incense burner .

Mei Ningxuan saw that Bei Tangjin's gaze was fixed on the sparse white plum blossoms, and asked, "Does Jin'er also like plum blossoms?"

Bei Tangjin looked back, and said: "Sparse shadows and slanting, dark fragrance floating, noble and refined, lonely and elegant, it is indeed beautiful."

Mei Ningxuan nodded. The tea had already been brewed. He poured a cup of tea for Bei Tangjin and another cup for himself. Through the rising mist, Bei Tangjin saw that Mei Ningxuan's expression was calm, and his eyes were still bright. He seemed to be smiling but not smiling. Although there was no smile on his face, it gave off a gentle smile, which made his slightly cold face much softer.

It's just that his eyes are indifferent and calm, without waves, as if nothing in this world can move him.

Seeing this, Bei Tangjin quickly lowered her eyelashes again. Mei Ningxuan looked gentle and elegant on the outside, but he was a person with deep thoughts. His master had told her many times that if Daxia could not avoid being with Beimingguo If there is a war, the first thing she has to guard against is her second senior brother.

It's a pity that when they first met, she thought she had met another confidant, but in fact he was a strong enemy. Thinking of this, Bei Tang Jin couldn't help but shake her head.

Mei Ningxuan put down the teapot, and saw that Bei Tangjin's face was as ice and snow, but those most touching eyes were like a frozen lake, so calm that there was no ripple.

It seems that everything in her heart is isolated by this icy lake, making it impossible to see the bottom.

The master once mentioned Bei Tang Jin's life experience to him. Although she is a young lady of the Bei Tang family, she lived a very hard life and survived in the cracks. General Yurong looks glorious on the surface, but in fact she is on the cusp of the storm, and may capsize at any time and be lost forever.

Her life experience is so bitter, it is unbearable to feel distressed.

"Jin'er." Mei Ningxuan's voice was a little softer, with a touch of affection.

"Huh?" Bei Tangjin raised her eyes suddenly, surprised at the sudden change in Mei Ningxuan's voice, and met his gentle eyes with a touch of pity.

Mei Ningxuan, what kind of expression is this...?

Seeing that her face was still full of wariness, Mei Ningxuan just smiled lightly. When the defense got old, it became a habit. He could understand this habit very well. He lived in the royal family since he was a child, survived intrigues, and never believed easily. No one would easily let go of their guard. Therefore, Bei Tangjin was just like him, wary of anyone, even if that person showed favor to her.

"Master once said that if I meet you in this life, I will take care of you for his old man." Mei Ningxuan said calmly, his voice was as light as green smoke, seemingly nothing.

Bei Tangjin nodded, but she frowned slightly.

The master had indeed mentioned it to her, and he had already told her that he was taking care of her for the second senior brother, but she never thought that this person would mention this matter to her.

"Jin'er has something on his mind?" Seeing her frowning, Mei Ningxuan smiled faintly.

Bei Tangjin shook his head and said, "I can feel the concern of Senior Brother Dao, but you and I are in different countries and serve different monarchs. Beiming Kingdom is forming an alliance with Daxia at this time, but there will always be a day when we will go to war. Then I became hostile to my brother."

Mei Ningxuan just smiled and said: "Jin'er actually thought about such a distant thing, but Jin'er's thinking is not unreasonable, and we will inevitably meet each other at that time, but no matter what, Jin'er will always be my junior sister, we I will always remember the love between our brothers and sisters."

Hearing this, Bei Tangjin was slightly moved, and suddenly looked at Mei Ningxuan, only to see the sincerity in the eyes of the other party, even with a touch of pity and distress.

It's just that this kind of love and distress makes Bei Tangjin resist and reject. For so many years, she has been alone, and no one has loved her. There is no need to rely on such pity and distress.
