Before us, green mountains and clear waters are within easy reach.
As soon as Yu Qianqian landed, she couldn't wait to shake off Meng Fulin and, like a little monkey, dashed into the depths of the forest.
Meng Fulin stood there, somewhat stunned, looking around. All he could hear was the cheerful laughter of women: "Wow! This place actually has peach orchards, waterfalls, and even the big fish that I love to eat the most."
"My God! What a sacred place this is!"
"It's...it's as beautiful as a fairyland!"
Freed from the constraints of the rules, Yu Qianqian became as carefree as an innocent child, her heartfelt laughter echoing in the distance like the gentle tinkling of silver bells.
As she dashed away, Meng Fulin followed closely in that direction. When he got close to the source of the sound, he saw the woman dancing and leaping under the peach tree, holding a withered branch that seemed completely out of place with her demeanor.
As Yu Qianqian danced lightly, she sensed someone approaching and immediately stopped moving. She then slowly leaned against the tree in Meng Fulin's direction, facing him sideways.
Lost in thought, she gazed at the riotous flowers all around her, scratched her head, and muttered to herself, "This is really strange. I've wandered around Wuji Palace several times, how come I never noticed such a wonderful place?"
"Your Majesty, please be careful not to harm your health, otherwise..." Before Meng Fulin could finish speaking, he looked up and saw Yu Qianqian find the largest peach tree and sit down on the ground without any regard for her image.
Yu Qianqian leaned against a tree, casually tilted her head, and then looked Meng Fulin up and down. It was the first time she had looked at him properly, and she found that this little eunuch had both good looks and temperament, and exuded an air of elegance.
But for some reason, she noticed that Meng Fulin's every expression and extremely subtle movements always unintentionally revealed a very familiar feeling. Although she couldn't think of anyone he resembled at the moment, she had no reason to be suspicious.
Meng Fulin turned and met Yu Qianqian's bright gaze. In that single glance, his face inexplicably flushed red, and he lowered his head guiltily, softly calling out, "Your Majesty..."
"Hmm... This place has mountains, water, and blooming flowers; it's quite a paradise. It would be even better if we could dance here." Yu Qianqian said to herself, her smile gradually fading. "However, it's a pity that none of us can play any musical instruments..."
Meng Fulin's emotions suddenly surged, and he quickly replied, "Your Majesty, I will!"
However, when he looked up and saw Yu Qianqian frowning in surprise, he realized that he had been somewhat out of line, and then he repeated himself: "What this servant means is that if Your Highness wishes to dance, this servant can play the zither to accompany Your Highness."
"Huh? You, a mere eunuch, can actually play the zither?" Yu Qianqian was completely stunned, her mouth involuntarily forming an "O" shape.
Just the fact that Meng Fulin brought her to this place was already unbelievable to her. After all, Meng Fulin was just a newly arrived eunuch who spent most of his time going around the Imperial Household Department. She didn't know where he got such supernatural abilities. Moreover, she heard that he could also play the zither, which was quite outrageous.
At this moment, Meng Fulin bowed to her and replied slowly, "Yes, before I entered the palace, I had loved these things since I was a child. If Your Majesty does not mind, I can play a tune for you to add to the fun."
Yu Qianqian laughed heartily as she spoke: "Great! That would be perfect. There happens to be a zither in Fengyi Palace. Fetch it now."
As the laughter rose and fell, the tall, slender figure appeared and disappeared in the distance, the man and his zither now in sight.
