It was dawn, and it was raining.

After the night was blacked, except for the soldiers in front of the city gates, the people in the city did not know what happened last night. I only saw a few drops of rain falling, and I was all refreshed and ecstatic.

Since the beginning of spring, it has not rained in Pengcheng. It took a long time for the beginning of spring to finally usher in the first rain, regardless of whether it was big or small, the people who had land at home all quickly put on their robes, took their guys, and went down to the ground happily.

The burned land is finally waiting for the ploughing, and it is a big deal to think about it!

At that time, Song Ji was going back to the government with a sad face, thinking about how to deal with those Wei prisoners, and how to write the report to the king. was so worried that his head was tense, and suddenly his forehead was cold, and a few drops made him burn from his liver.

But he stretched out his hand and wiped it to come back to his senses, and for a while he laughed and laughed, forgetting all the bad luck, rubbing his hands vigorously and striding towards the palace, chattering and rejoicing: "It's raining! It's a good thing! It's a good thing! I'm worried that this year will be another famine year! This time I don't have to worry!"

The rain did not stop, but there was no joy outside the station. In the silence of the courtyard, the windows were half open, but because of the rain, they were closed, and the doors and windows were only a thin crack in the wind.

Zhou Rushui was lying in the inner room with half-open eyelids, and the sound of rain behind her was dripping, and before she knew it, she fell asleep.

The scene in the dream kept changing, she lost the phoenix card, and the queen mother smelled it, and lost her posture in front of her for the first time. The teacup in his hand suddenly loosened, fell to the ground, and shattered into pieces.

She was startled, and ducked back with red eyes, but she stepped on a foot of porcelain slag. The porcelain slag was so strong that it poked into the center of her foot overnight, and she screamed in pain, and big tears fell out.

At that time, the monarch's father was just outside the door, and he rushed to hear the sound, followed by the prince. Seeing that she was crying heartbreakingly, and her socks were full of blood, he picked her up, held her in his arms and patted her slowly, and asked the queen mother: "It's just a phoenix card, as for this?"

The prince also agreed, while passing on the doctor, he pinched her face distressedly, and whispered to the queen mother: "Don't worry about the queen mother, the son is young, but he lost a phoenix card, and he just made another one." ”

Hearing this, the queen mother's wrung brows did not stretch, she seemed to be trying her best to suppress the anger in her heart, and the words came to her lips, and she said without anger: "That's a phoenix card, what if you ask others to pick it up?"

The monarch's father didn't care at all, but waved his hand and smiled at her: "What about picking it up? Lone is such a delicate girl, where can others replace it?" ”

When the queen mother heard this, she frowned again, and persuaded on the side: "Your Excellency is too extravagant!"

The monarch's father didn't look at the queen mother, he just smiled at her, his heavy palm fell on the top of her hair, and he said proudly: "The lonely Jiaojiao is worthy of the support of all the people!"

At that time, the seventh brother somehow came, he was not tall enough, and saluted respectfully to the queen mother, then turned around, came to her on tiptoe, and wanted to wipe her tears with his own sleeve, and his mouth was also coaxing: "Don't cry!"

But he couldn't reach her in the arms of his father, and he couldn't do it enough, so he untied his jade plate from his waist, jumped up and stuffed it into her palm, and said with a smile: "The seventh brother's is all for you, don't panic!"

The prince sighed and raised his hand to rub the top of his hair.

When the phoenix card returned to her hand, more than a month had passed. Brother sent it in person, and told her to keep it well, don't fall again.

I didn't want his cautious appearance to provoke the seventh brother to laugh, and there were no good words in his mouth, so he bent over and picked her up and walked out, the two of them were like arhats, and he also covered her ears and ridiculed the elder brother, saying: "How do you look like a little girl, mother-in-law." After speaking, she let go of her hand, and when she didn't listen, she rubbed her face and continued: "Let's ignore him, it's just a jade card." Later, he even said to the seventh brother, and the seventh brother will get it for you. ”

She didn't hear the words clearly, she only instinctively protected her own sibling brother, who was still in the arms of the seventh brother, but her little hand pushed away the face of the seventh brother, and she was so anxious that she snorted indiscriminately: "You are the little lady who raised you." ”

Her immature words made the seventh brother stiffen, but his hand holding her never let go.

Suddenly, he hugged her tighter, and came over again, with a face smiling like a flower, a brilliant appearance, rubbing her face with his face, and said indifferently: "Yes, my son is really smart, and the seventh brother is really a little girl." ”

Outside, the sky was a little dark because of the rain, and the servants were waiting outside the courtyard, and Wang Yuxi sat under the eaves in front of the door, not wearing a robe, only covering a silk blanket on his legs.

Raindrops rustle on the leaves, nests hang in the air between branches, and young birds poke out their fluffy heads. After a short time, the rain entered the eaves and wet the ground, and Wang Yuxi sat motionless on the steps, his eyes falling on the puddle not far away, and he was distracted.

Through the courtyard gate, Fuliu and Nangong Qi looked at each other, and when they saw this scene, a Bodhi Zi with a flat expression and quietly twitched his fingertips. One had a sad face, and made the force crawl the hair in front of his forehead.

After guarding for a while, Nangong Qi finally showed his impatience, glanced at Fuliu, and took the first step to the corner by the door. Seeing Fuliu coming, he approached him and asked him in a low voice, "Does the holy monk know that Wang San hasn't closed his eyes for a few days?"

Hearing this, Fu Liu glanced at him, and there was no sadness or joy, he only shook his head and didn't say half a word.

Seeing this, Nangong Qi was also a little anxious, and asked again: "Two days or three days?"

"Even if you close your eyes, you can't sleep peacefully. Fuliu didn't answer the question, but looked like he let Wang Yuxi boil.

Nangong Qi loved to listen to him play meditation in the past, but today he somehow couldn't get used to it, and he couldn't ask a reason, so he had to mumble vigorously: "Is he so honest on weekdays?"

"It's not something you have, it's a willingness. Fu Liu glanced at Nangong Qi, his clear eyes as bright as glass dimmed slightly, and he paused for a moment before continuing: "Guarding like this, he feels comfortable. People live but they want to be comfortable. ”

This sentence reminded Nangong Qi of Wan Qimei, he pursed his lips, his expression was a little depressed, his mouth was full of bitterness, and he said in a low voice: "You don't know about this matter, if you make it clear to the female monarch, maybe you will eat less rows." ”

Fu Liuzhi chuckled, looked at the flying rain in the sky and said, "He is willing." As he spoke, he turned his eyes to look at Xiang Nangong Qi and added, "Then Xie Liu is in prison, do you see it?"

Nangong Qi was stunned by his words, shook his head, and said in a muffled voice: "I don't like her person, it's just her shadow." She even wore a person/skin/mask/mask when she was in Yecheng, which was all illusory, and there was nothing to be attached to. ”

Zhou Rushui was not solid in his sleep, when he opened his eyes, it was pitch black both indoors and outdoors, his eyes were swollen, and his mouth was also very dry. She was half-propped up, and the room was pitch black, and she couldn't find the tea set for a while. wanted to call people, and suddenly remembered Wang Yuxi, and remembered that she asked him to support her.

When I think about it, I forget about my thirst. She cautiously approached the door barefoot, and did not push it, but looked out through the half-hidden door.

With just one glance, Wang Yuxi appeared in her eyes.

There was a half-worn oil-paper lamp hanging in front of the door, and he sat cross-legged on the steps in the dim light, with his back to her, motionless.

The ground in the courtyard was drenched, water was still dripping on the eaves, and the vamps of his shoes were already soaked, but he didn't realize it, dressed in white and half-hidden in the dark, silent, revealing boundless loneliness.

In her dream, the family rose and fell, and when she opened her eyes, he was guarding a lamp in the darkness and supporting her.

There are many emotions in my heart that I can't let go, and there are many emotions that I can't let go. Before she knew it, she pushed the door open and stood in front of the open door, looking at him generously with her swollen eyes. This is the first time in her life that she saw loneliness in the cloud-shaking Wang Sanlang, and most of this loneliness was given by her.

It occurred to her that she might be wrong.

As soon as the voice came out, Wang Yuxi came back to his senses. The four eyes are facing each other, and they are all red in their sockets.

Slowly, he smiled at her, very gently, but with a tired tenderness.

Seeing this, Zhou Rushui's heart was slightly suffocated, and he couldn't help but approach him and sat beside him.

As far as the eye can see, the courtyard is pitch black. Her eyes could only see close. Nearby, Wang Yuxi was holding the Liuyun Baifu Pei in his hand. Nearby, the filthy rain and mud on his shoes.

Such an embarrassment, such an unorthodox, should never appear on Wang Yuxi's body. But here he is, calm and calm, as if he didn't feel half uncomfortable.

As soon as she sat down, he put the silk blanket between his legs on her lap, and his eyes fell on her face, and he looked up at the night sky.

The courtyard fell silent again, and after a short silence, Zhou Rushui pinched the silk blanket on his knees, couldn't bear it anymore, and said slowly: "I dreamed of the seventh brother." ”

As she spoke, the tears in her eyes also washed down, and she couldn't stop it, so she lowered her head and only looked at her own fingertips, letting her eyes blur.

She took care of herself and said slowly: "I have always been different from Brother Seven, and he and I are not born to the same mother, so Brother and him, I always stand on Brother Brother's side every time." In this way, he was not angry with me, and he still remembered me until he died, and he carried all the sins on him. Let me go to you, let me stop taking care of state affairs and family affairs, give birth to children, go to mountains and rivers, and live a free life. He always said that he had been in this life, and he had nothing to do. But who is successful in this world?" At this point, she looked at her empty palms and laughed at herself: "I have achieved nothing,"

Tears were endless, Zhou Rushui sat side by side with Wang Yuxi, as if there were endless words to say here, and as if there was a knot in his heart that could not be untied, he could finally breathe in this dark night and see the skylight, even if it was the dark and dreary light in the dark night.

Zhou Rushui's lips moved and moved, choked for a moment, making her breathing become cloudy, she tried her best to control her instinctive trembling, and said slowly: "Buddhism is dedicated to the four graces, and the three ways of suffering are suffering." The fourfold grace refers to the kindness of parents, the grace of the guru, the grace of the family and the country, and the grace of sentient beings. Those who follow my will, those who make me happy, those who go against my will, and those who make the Tao enlightened, are all immeasurable kindness. The seventh brother treated me with a hundred good and harmless, and I treated him well, but I can't remember. Moreover, I have never repaid this kindness in two lifetimes, and perhaps, I am also a ruthless and unrighteous person, and when I resent you, did I also forget your kindness to me?"

Zhou Zhan died absurdly, and because of his reckless behavior in the past, he was unpopular, so he fell, no one would say anything about his good, in the dark alleys, especially the people of his fiefdom, most of them were happy, and they really achieved nothing.

In this regard, others are embarrassed, she is indeed a pain in her chest. Now that I am reunited in my dream, I miss it very much, and I am unforgettable. She suddenly understood that right and wrong in the world are always vague. When others are right and wrong, have the world ever looked back at themselves?

When she spoke, Wang Yuxi had already turned her face. He looked at her quietly, at her eyes blurred with tears, at her eyes that were obviously red and swollen, but still bright, still clear, and still beautiful.

Who walks in this world, who is not full of blood? It is him, and it is better not to see blood. But when the clouds and rain are overturned, the shoes and socks are often wet. Inhaling the faint aroma of her body, very familiar, and a little strange, made him extremely greedy, but also extremely warm, there were many words in his heart, sullen, even made him speechless.

After a while, he finally stretched out his hand, he stuffed the Liuyun Baifu Pei in his hand into her palm, his cold hand tightly wrapped around her trembling palm, some force, some trembling, he changed his breath slightly, and then said in a dumb voice: "You don't do nothing, you have me." ”

His words are as heavy as a thousand pounds. Zhou Rushui couldn't help but raise his face, his eyes were hazy with tears, and his eyes were facing each other.

She saw him looking at her affectionately, and suddenly, he shook his head at her,
