Chapter 175: Suddenly, I was young
The streets were full of people looking for people, full of teams searching with torches, Zheng Chexuan and Flawless walked carefully in the dark alleys, the sky was still snowing heavily, but the body was hot from running.
"Be careful!" A low cry, Zheng Chexuan stretched out his hand and took the man into his arms, hugged him tightly, the black cloak on his body covered the plain body tightly, and the chaotic voice was at the end of the alley, flawless and not struggling, his body was trapped in the man's arms, and the man surrounded him tightly.
His cheek was against the man's chest, and the heat of his body was spreading through his clothes, and his heart was beating so strongly that it was ringing in his ears.
"Alright. Letting go of Flawless, Zheng Chexuan looked up and said, "It seems that the inn can't go back, let's find a place to stay first, and then make plans when Master Fu and Jingtian arrive." ”
Flawless nodded, his body was still very weak, he knew that this was an inevitable reaction after a fever, his heart was beating rapidly, and he really needed to rest.
The two jumped on the roof, got up and down lightly, away from the city center, and arrived in a remote place, Zheng Chexuan knocked on a farmer's house.
"Who!" a yawning voice sounded, and the two waited at the door for a long time, and the door creaked open.
Raising the candle flame in his hand and looking at Zheng Chexuan carefully, an old man gasped and asked, "So late at night, what is the matter with the son?"
"Old man, we are passing by here, we don't want to be stolen by someone, we can't live in an inn, it's snowing heavily, there is really nowhere to go, take the liberty of disturbing, can you make it convenient, let me settle here." ”
"What's the matter, old man?" said an old woman, who saw two richly dressed men standing at the door, and hurriedly leaned over to take a look.
"Oh, it's such a cold day, why did the son stay outside the door with the little lady, look at her face is really bad, old man, get out of the way, this girl is going to freeze." ”
Flawless with a snow hat on his head, and fine velvet against the skin, anyone who sees it, will recognize it as a woman, and is waiting to explain, but suddenly heard Zheng Chexuan say: "Thank you, auntie, my lady is not in good health, the silver was stolen, and she couldn't live in the inn, so she had to knock on the door and ask to be taken in." ”
"Come on, come on, come in, it's a cold day, the snow is heavy, it's okay for you lords, the girl's family can't freeze. After the old woman finished speaking, she stretched out her hand and pulled it over Flawlessly, and said, "Look at this cold hand, come in and come in." ”
Flawless's face was crimson, and he could only let the old woman pull him into the door.
When they arrived at the house, they lit a brazier, and the two sat next to them and roasted their bodies, and the old man poured two bowls of hot tea, and after the two drank them, their bodies immediately warmed up.
"Tut, look at this girl's handsomeness, the son is so blessed to marry such a fairy-like lady. The old woman looked at Flawless with a loving smile and smiled, Flawless was even redder by her, and wanted to explain, but she didn't know how to say it, so she had to keep her head down and be silent.
Seeing that the flawless was embarrassed, the old man coughed lightly, and looked at the old woman reproachfully: "I always stare at the little ladies of the people, and I see that they are also tired, go and clean up the side room, and let the little couple be wronged there for one night." ”
"No—" Flawless looked up and blurted out.
The two old men were stunned, and Flawless realized that they were out of shape, and immediately bit their lips and frowned, thinking about how to deal with it, Zheng Chexuan had already smiled slightly, stretched out his hand to wrap his body, and said: "My lady is afraid of disturbing the two old people, so we will sit here all night without worrying." ”
"The girl dislikes us poor families. ”
"It's just that it's getting late, and it's already very undesirable for us to disturb us, how can we bother the two old people. ”
The old woman smiled and said, "Don't bother, my daughter has just gotten married, the house is empty, just change the quilt, you bake your body first to warm up, I'll clean up." ”
Seeing the two old men go out, Zheng Chexuan let go of his hand and said, "You have to rest well, we don't know what the situation will be tomorrow, how can you do it if you don't take care of your body, you can sleep at ease, I'm in good health, just lie on the table." ”
When I arrived at the house, I saw that the furnishings in the house were simple, because the place was not big, there were no tables and chairs, only a small cabinet and a bed.
"The two of you rest early, our old couple is in the next room, something calls us. ”
"Thank you, two old men!" The two nodded and thanked them, and when the two old men went out, Zheng Chexuan turned around and said, "You sleep, I'll lean on the side of the bed." ”
Flawless was a little helpless, the weather was so cold, but there was only one bed, how could the person sit on the side, how could he sleep in peace.
After standing for a long time, there were a few coughs from the room over there, the two of them were relatively speechless, and they were both a little embarrassed, and finally Flawless lowered his head and said softly: "The prince also sleeps, I don't know what situation I have to face tomorrow, it is really important to recuperate, and I believe that the prince will not do anything wrong." After saying that, he went to the bedside, took off his cloak and coat, and went to bed, but his back was to the outside of the bed, and he did not speak.
Zheng Chexuan stood for a while, and when he arrived at the bedside, he also took off his cloak and coat, lifted the quilt and went to bed, but he faced Flawless, looked at the white neck under the soft black hair, and suddenly said softly: "Flawless, let me hold you, your body is cold, this quilt is so thin, I am afraid that my body is still cold all night." ”
"No!" the man replied in a low voice.
"Flawless!" The hand slowly stretched out, grabbed the man and pulled him into his arms, Flawless struggled, the bed immediately creaked, and there were a few more coughs in the room, Flawless suddenly stiffened, and no longer moved.
Zheng Chexuan slowly approached the body, and finally pressed his chest against the cold back, and then warmed the cold body of the person with his body, Flawless did not speak, nor struggled anymore, but kept his back to the posture, and finally closed his eyes in the tired exhaustion, and fell into a deep sleep.
This feeling is so unreal, that person is in his arms at the moment, the sound of soft breathing rings in his ears, at this moment he is so supple, without the stubbornness of resisting a qiē, the body gradually relaxes due to sleep, and the slowly warm skin exudes a faint fragrance, lingering in the nose.
In fact, he should still have trust in himself, because he fell asleep so peacefully, and he was so relieved to be a person who longed for him, so he couldn't lose this trust again!
Leaning his head on the silky green silk, Zheng Chexuan closed his eyes with a smile.
Blood!
Those people were strangled by the man in an instant, and the man was pure, his long black hair fluttering in the wind, and his whole white clothes were stained with blood, like poppies swaying in the wind.
The little marquis sat up suddenly, and cold sweat was dripping on his forehead.
How long has it been since I've dreamed of that person?!
This is a nightmare that I can't escape, no matter who that person is or where I am, I am destined to be unable to erase the feeling engraved in my heart.
Pushing open the window, seeing that there was still candlelight in the mother's room, the little marquis locked his eyebrows, put on his coat and went out.
Bai Geyue sat at the table in a daze, looking at the brocade box containing the red scarf in a daze.
"Mother!"
What was she thinking? She was so engrossed that she didn't even hear herself push the door and call?
The red scarf?!
Didn't my mother say last time that someone had put the red scarf here? Why didn't you sleep in the middle of the night, looking at the red scarf in a daze?
"Mother!" the little marquis came to his side and called again and sat down.
Bai Geyue came back to her senses, stretched out her hand to close the brocade box, and said, "Yan'er, why don't you sleep so late." ”
"Is it because my mother is still meditating so late at night, Yan'er came to take a look, does my mother have something on her mind?" The little marquis hesitated for a moment and said, "But is it because Yan'er wants to send Zheng Guo to envoy?"
Bai Geyue's heart twitched violently, people are not as good as heaven, she tried her best to block her son's footsteps from going to Zheng, but now because of the diplomatic relations between the two countries, she has to go, that person is in Zheng State at the moment, although the world is so big, how could he have met it so coincidentally, but what if he really met it?
"Yan'er, my mother will enter the palace tomorrow, and we will push this errand. ”
"Mother!" The little marquis stared straight at his mother, and said: "The emperor said that Lord Zheng Yuan specified that Yan'er should go, although Yan'er didn't understand why, but it was a matter of diplomatic relations between the two countries, although the emperor's power has rebounded now, but the relationship network that has been entrenched by the military minister for more than ten years, how can it be brought down in a moment and a half, no matter what the purpose of this time is, as long as it is not beyond Yan'er's power, Yan'er will definitely do his best to make friends between the two countries and strive for an external support for the emperor." ”
"But, that Zheng Guo ......"
"Mother, do you have something to say to Yan'er?" the little marquis looked at his mother with deep meaning and asked.
“…… It's okay, it's not too early, go to rest early, when is the itinerary set?" Bai Geyue sighed lightly, knowing that she couldn't stop it, she was anxious and depressed.
The little marquis stood up, walked to the back of his mother, stretched out his arms and wrapped his arms around her shoulders tightly, rested his chin on his shoulders and said softly: "Five days later! Mother, Yan'er promises you that you will no longer act recklessly, go to Zheng completely, and come back unscathed, okay." ”
"My Yan'er!" Bai Geyue grabbed her son's hand, thinking of the night a few months ago, her son's flesh and blood were blurred in a pool of blood, dying, and her heart ached like a pinprick.
"Mother, did Yan'er hug her mother like this when she was a child?" The man smiled and leaned his head on his mother's cheek, feeling the love from the heart.
"When your father wants to beat you, you will run to me for help, you, you are too skinny, when you were a child, the people near the Hou Mansion ......"
…………
In the middle of the night, the woman in the room murmured about her son, who was already very tall, but snuggled up to her like a child, listening to her talk about her forgotten childhood, about his happiness and sorrow in the past ten years, until she fell asleep on the table.
Children, your mother can't be by your side all your life, so many things, after all, you still have to face it yourself, but you have to promise your mother, you can't give up your life lightly, and that is, you must live a happy life!
Fingertips gently caressed his son's flying eyebrows, the little child who was standing in ragged clothes on the street of Chengle and shot through the horse's leg with an arrow had grown up! Bai Geyue said softly with tears in her eyes: "My mother has lost a son, and I can't lose you anymore!"
