Chapter 743: Flowing Fireflies

At night, the stars are brilliant, the bright moonlight shines on the grassland, the heaven and the earth are quiet, the evening breeze blows gently, and the grass waves fluctuate with the wind, which is extraordinarily pleasant.

Lin Zhixuan's eyes suddenly lit up, and she pointed to the reedy river in front of her: "Lord Wang, look, what is that?"

Wei Mingxu hurriedly raised his head, but saw that in the pitch-black reeds, there was a little fluorescent flying light.

Lin Zhixuan had already gotten up and ran over.

Wei Mingxu was afraid that she wouldn't be able to see her fall into the water again in the dark, so she hurriedly put down the things in her hand and followed: "It's just a firefly, look at it for you, in midsummer, there are fireflies on the lake in the back garden of the palace, if you are rare, I will let people plant reeds in the coming year, and take you to take a boat to see the fireflies flowing all over the lake." ”

Lin Zhixuan was so excited that she couldn't express it, she shook her head again and again: "There must have been more fireflies in my family than the prince has seen in the past, but when I was very young, Gu's mother once told me that fireflies are transformed by pampas grass, born in the season of summer flowers, and will shine throughout the summer until they find another firefly that can only dance with it.

Gu's mother said that if you can see the fireflies in autumn, it is a very lucky thing, and you must make a wish for it, it will make your wishes come true. When I was a child, I used to believe that after autumn, I went to the lotus pond every day to wait, hoping to see the legendary autumn firefly one day, and I waited for many, many years.

Later, when I grew up, I only thought it was my mother's story of coaxing me, but I still never gave up, and told this to my daughter, and the girl also went to the lake at home to see it for many years, but she never saw it. ”

Wei Mingxu only looked at the little girl beside her who was so excited that she couldn't even speak faster, since she knew her, over the years, I have seen her handle family affairs dignified and steady, breaking into the palace to deliver medicine in danger, punishing concubines decisively, or raising children gently or harshly, as if except for her petite appearance, everything next to her does not look like a little girl who is only a teenager.

At this time, seeing her hurriedly clasping her hands together, she had closed her eyes, as if she was making a wish, and she was even more devout than to the Bodhisattva.

Wei Mingxu looked at Lin Zhixuan and finally opened his eyes, and then asked, "Okay?"

Lin Zhixuan nodded, and watched the firefly drift away with Wei Mingxu with Lin Zhixuan's wish.

Wei Mingxu said: "Go back quickly, the pheasant will be roasted in a while." ”

Lin Zhixuan reluctantly went back with Wei Mingxu, but Wei Mingxu suddenly asked: "When did you tell the ninth sister, why haven't I heard her mention it?"

Lin Zhixuan's footsteps suddenly paused, and the daughter she said was not the ninth sister, but the sister Lin in the previous life.

Lin Zhixuan changed her words and said, "It's Sister Xin." ”

Wei Mingxu didn't pursue it anymore, but Lin Zhixuan was happy, and there was a slip of the tongue for a while, the pheasant on the shelf had already been roasted, Wei Mingxu took the oil paper wrapped and tore off a leg and handed it to Lin Zhixuan.

Lin Zhixuan looked around at no one, so she took it over, and she was really hungry after making trouble so late. I took a small bite gently, and I couldn't help but make my index finger move, and it was very fragrant.

I just saw that Wei Mingxu took a piece of meat with a blade and threw it into his mouth, and took a bowl again, and there was still wine on the side.

Lin Zhixuan has never seen Wei Mingxu eat like this, he is the respect of the prince, and he has always eaten at the same table with himself as a strict person, after a meal, he can't even hear the sound of the bowl and chopsticks colliding, and there are rules for everyone.

But this time, Lin Zhixuan looked interesting, so she also blew the chicken leg gently, took a bite, and after seeing that there was no one again, she asked Wei Mingxu for wine.

But the more I eat, the more I lose my appearance.

Lin Zhixuan only ate one leg, and was fed a few bites of chicken breast by Wei Mingxu before she was full, saying that she couldn't do it anymore.

Wei Mingxu compared Lin Zhixuan's previous appetite, he has eaten a lot of these today, and he has drunk alcohol, and it is night, so he shouldn't eat more. didn't force her, Wei Mingxu stopped eating half by himself, after all, this pheasant is very big, I'm afraid it is more than ten catties.

Wei Mingxu accompanied Lin Zhixuan to the river to wash his hands, because he ate too much and it was all meat, he was afraid of accumulating food, so Wei Mingxu led Lin Zhixuan to walk slowly on the grassland under the bright moon.

After walking a short distance, Lin Zhixuan shouted that she couldn't walk anymore with the strength of the wine: "The prince has walked too much today, you look at the scenery in front of you, it can be called 'the stars are hanging down and the plains are wide, and the moon is surging and the river flows', why don't we sit down and enjoy it quietly?"

Wei Mingxu was helpless, looked at Lin Zhixuan, who was already sitting on the ground, and said, "How many steps did you take today?

But I also know that she is tired, she has never been a person who is much moved, and she is afraid of being tired, and then looking at her actions now, she is also quite drunk, after all, it is cold in autumn, and they are drinking so they don't realize it, Wei Mingxu didn't dare to put her here, so he wanted to pull Lin Zhixuan up: "Go, carry you back, let's talk with the fire." ”

Lin Zhixuan was just very tired, and drank such strong wine, although she felt that her consciousness was still sober, but the road was a little unstable, and she struggled to stand up and almost fell. Originally, he still shirked and said that he didn't need Wei Mingxu's back, but now he can't do it.

Quietly lying on her back, today is too many firsts for Lin Zhixuan: "Lord, I never knew that such a day is so comfortable." I don't want to go back. ”

Wei Mingxu walked slowly with her on his back: "Look, the little girl who didn't know it, when I wanted to bring you out, you were still unwilling. ”

Lin Zhixuan hugged Wei Mingxu's neck tightly: "The prince still laughs at me, doesn't the prince like it?"

Wei Mingxu sighed: "I like it, I like it very much." So I liked to go out to war with the old fifteen and them, galloping on the battlefield quickly, killing countless enemies, and I really felt that the land in the world was flat for me. ”

Lin Zhixuan listened quietly, and Wei Mingxu told her about the time when they went to Mongolia together: "At that time, there was also a shortage of food and grass, but the soldiers under our command were more and more anxious to be fed. Almost swept the entire Horqin grassland, as long as I saw the enemy, I couldn't be excited, because when I saw people, I had grain and grass, cattle and sheep.

Ying Xiang and I were leading a group of people to hunt at that time, and we were surrounded by a group of steppe wolves, there were fifty or sixty of them. ”

Lin Zhixuan listened with interest: "What happened later?"

Wei Mingxu said: "Later, the whole army had a full meal of roast wolf meat, chased wolves all over the grassland, and saw wolves, all of them were more fierce than hungry wolves. As for the rabbits, snakes, and even rats that have eaten them, there is a kind of vole on the grassland, and the meat is very fat and fragrant. ”

"Huh. Lin Zhixuan twisted her nose in disgust.

Wei Mingxu continued to smile and said: "At that time, I was only thinking about how to eat enough and how to kill the enemy. Surrounded by friends of life and death who can deliver their backs, and brothers who can fight together in blood, it is more reassuring than the blood relatives in this majestic capital. ”
