The night is darker, and the evening breeze is slightly cooler.

Shaw House, Main Courtyard.

"Grandfather. ”​

The hoarse voice dispelled the original fatigue, and the old man lifted his eyelids, and his eyes fell on the figure reflected on the bright paper.

"Come in. ”

As the voice fell, the man outside the door pushed the door and walked in.

The person who came was dressed in a purple dress in the morning, and there was no emotion on his handsome and boundless complexion, and the cold and noble man stepped forward and slowly sat on the chair opposite the old man.

There was a silence in the back room, except for the sound of candles burning.

"Do you know why your grandfather called you?" Seeing that his grandson was as stable as Mount Tai, it was the old man himself who couldn't hold his breath first.

If he had waited for him to ask, he would have waited until his eyes rolled and he hadn't waited.

Xiao Chengyu is so smart, even if the old man is silent, he has probably calculated what the old man wants to say.

A trace of chipping appeared in Gujing Wubo's eyes, and the dark light flickered.

"The time has not come. ”​

The old man frowned, and said a little lately: "Now that the girl has been married, if you continue to pretend to be stupid, I'm afraid her life in Xiao Mansion will not be easy." After a pause, the old prince seemed to sigh: "Even if you pretend to be stupid, the emperor has no intention of letting our Xiao family go." ”

When Xiao Chengyu was born, Chang'an auspicious clouds shrouded, hundreds of birds came to court, and the fate of Yunxu Dao was returned, which pushed Xiao Mansion to a catastrophe.

The Xiao family is loyal and good, and has never thought of rebellious things, Xiao Chengyu is talented and intelligent, but because of that proverb, he pretended to be an idiot since he was a child, until he came to the Northern Desert that year, Xiao Chengyu's father died on the battlefield, and his mother died of illness due to longing.

The Northern Desert army was like a bamboo, all the way into the hinterland of the Central Plains, for a time no one could match, in order to avenge his father, Xiao Chengyu tried his best to put on the armor and drive the Northern Desert army out of Dayan.

Xiao Chengyu that year can be said to be in full swing, not only outstanding in battle, but also deeply loved by the people, which naturally aroused the royal family's fear.

In addition, Xiao Chengyu was deeply poisoned by the heart devouring poison in order to destroy the demon sect that was the cause of the disaster, and he was in danger for a while, if it weren't for Gu Nanxun, I am afraid that Xiao Chengyu would have been gone long ago.

In desperation, Xiao Chengyu had to rein in his edge and pretend to be an idiot again, but where is the lesson from the past, even if Xiao Chengyu pretends to be an idiot again, the royal side is still eyeing the Xiao Mansion.

Recently, a lot of Xiao Mansion's power has been reduced in the court, and the next step is probably to target Xiao Mansion.

Xiao Chengyu is clear about this, but now is not the time, why didn't he want to shelter her from the wind and rain and protect her behind him.

Seeing that he was silent, looking directly at the candle flame in front of him and not knowing what he was thinking, the old man did not urge, but there was a faint fatigue between his eyebrows.

"Cheng Yu, grandfather believes that you have your own plans, do what you want! ”

The man's contemplative eyes were like a rock falling into the water, and in a moment, the waves were repeated, although he did not say a word, he was at ease.

This is a tacit understanding between the grandfather and grandson.

Cloaked in the night, out of the main courtyard, Xiao Chengyu fell into the courtyard of the bamboo courtyard like a breeze.

At that time, the bamboo courtyard was dark and cold, and where the wind passed, there was a rustling of bamboo leaves.

The former bamboo courtyard was like an empty city, filled with emptiness and desolation, until her appearance cast a glimmer of light into this dark sky.

Because of the proverb that "destiny returns," he has endured all the hardships since he was a child! Doesn't he want to nest in the arms of his parents and spread joy? No...... It's that he can't choose......

When the emperor Song Xiuwen deliberately sent his father to the front line, he did not give enough troops food and grass, his father was not defeated by the army of the Northern Desert, but he ran out of ammunition and food, and he was unable to return to the sky.

So he can only be strong, strong enough to have the ability to subvert this dynasty.

Since it is "destiny", then he doesn't mind making it a reality......

He has calculated all his life, whether he wins or loses, but he has never been defeated, only her, he is afraid, he does not dare to act rashly, he is afraid that she will know that this marriage contract is all calculated by him, and he is afraid that he will lose a lot.

knew that his side was in danger, but he couldn't let go of her.

On the day of the wedding, what did he have in mind? He deliberately let the sedan chair go to Mofu to welcome his relatives in advance, in order to calculate that Sheng Jingchen would rush back to Chang'an on this day, and he was afraid that she would go with Sheng Jingchen desperately, so he secretly informed the old marquis to go............

Gathering his eyes, he walked up the stone steps, and with a slight push of the door, it opened.

Even if the night was thick, he could see the sleeping face of the woman on the couch at a glance.

He sat on the edge of the bed with complicated eyes, and his large, slightly cool hand gently brushed over the woman's rosy cheeks.

Stupid woman, if I knew that I would know your ways, I shouldn't have shown mercy to your men in the first place............

The most taboo thing for a person like him is to have a weakness, otherwise one day if he is pinched, he will never recover......

But............ His eyes gradually deepened...... But he seems to be more afraid of regret for the rest of his life than of a catastrophe......

...........................................................................

In an unknown small courtyard outside Chang'an City.

Mu Yao sat on the slightly cool stone steps with her knees crossed, her original agility seemed to be full of stars, and her eyes were dark and unclear.

She stared blankly, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Miss Mu, let's go into the house and rest!"

The autumn breeze was slightly cool, and the woman was thin, and she had already sneezed several times in a row after sitting for such an hour.

Gu Yi couldn't bear it when he saw it, so he couldn't stop persuading.

Mu Yao shook her head and smiled: "If I fall asleep, Nanxun will come back in a while, and I won't be able to see him." ”

Even if he took her to Chang'an with him, he was still the head and tail of the dragon, and she closed her eyes slightly, I am afraid that when she opens her eyes, he will not know where to go.

Gu Yi sighed lightly, looking at the woman's thin figure, his eyes were almost complicated.

I'm afraid she doesn't know that as far as the master is concerned, she is just a stand-in for the delicate girl.

How could the master go to great lengths for a stand-in?

Seeing that she couldn't be persuaded to do so, Gu Yi didn't say much, just silently stayed behind her.

It wasn't until the middle of the night that the man in white who was victorious of snow came quietly in the night.

The eyes suddenly crashed into the petite figure, only to see her sitting alone on the stone steps, with her hands on her cheeks, staring blankly at the ground, I don't know what she was thinking?

Gu Nanxun's brows were almost invisible and slightly furrowed.

It wasn't until the white was imprinted in the eyelid that the woman's wooden eyes gradually regained their brilliance.

"Nanxun, you're back. She threw herself at him with a high spirit.

She said you were back, and she asked him: where are you going, what are you doing............

He hugged her and asked gently, "Why don't you sleep yet?"

She nestled in his arms, tears falling silently: "Waiting for you." ”

The cold around the body seems to meet the warm sun, and quietly turns into a piece of spring water.

He didn't notice the strangeness of the girl in his arms, and rubbed the top of the girl's hair affectionately with his big hand, but his thoughts had already flown away............

Not long ago, he suddenly got the news that someone had found Linglong's traces in the Northern Desert............
