Chu Xianzhao was busy and finished his day, looking at the city of rest that was gradually covered with maple red, and now it was late autumn, when Chu Xianzhao passed by on the street, he found that the maple leaves piled up on the earthen walls around him were covered with mud and turned light green, and the whole city seemed to be asleep, and from time to time a few birds flew overhead, leaving a string of loud birdsong.

He doesn't like to bring guards when he travels, and there are only a handful of people in this city who can hurt him, he stops and stops in the city, and in a blink of an eye he is seventeen years old, last year it seems that his father gave him this dragon bird sword, and now he has adapted to his state, and he no longer runs to find his sister when he encounters anything like before, he misses his sister and pomegranate bamboo and them very much, these thoughts are piled up in his heart, like trivial memory fragments, filling the room in his mind.

A lot of things happened this year, some people left him and came to his side, Chu Xianzhao didn't know if the current state was good or bad, he was a lot of sentimental and sensitive people, when he was a child, he cried and laughed, he could always think of a way to solve it, if it couldn't be solved, he would move the rescuers, he never liked to drill the horns.

He let out a long breath of cold air, looking at his children peeking at the corner of the wall, Chu Xianzhao grimaced at them, scaring them away.

Chu Xianzhao finally walked back to the Yanfu Palace, came to the door of a quiet courtyard, knocked on the door, the person who opened the door was Guan Ju, the girl rubbed her eyes as if she hadn't woken up yet, and she was still wearing a thin nightgown, the two looked at each other for a while, Chu Xianzhao smiled: "Let me go in, I'll bring you something delicious." ”

After that, he took out the small pear wood brocade box, Guan Ju yawned and walked ahead, Chu Xianzhao smelled the obvious aroma of porridge, the fallen leaves in the courtyard were piled up in the corner, and there was a small broom next to it.

Chu Xianzhao looked at Guan Ju's sleepy god, she didn't have the majesty of the previous reverse slashing divine flame, she was sitting on a small bench in a plain white nightgown, just like a girl from a small jasper, the green silk was simply tied together by a sandalwood comb, Chu Xianzhao asked softly, "Are you ...... How's it going, you can't get the scales off?"

"These are a lot better, I was worried to death before, and when I took a bath, I rubbed hard a few times and fell out of several pieces, am I sick? She looked at Chu Xianzhao bitterly, and the young man muttered: "Maybe it has something to do with the strength in your bloodline, the bloodline of the Zhao royal family is too complicated, although I can't give you an answer, but I think it shouldn't be a disease, it's good to see you okay now." ”

"Huh, are you here?" Su Nianyu walked out of the house and looked at Chu Xuanzhao who was sitting in the courtyard, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and Guan Ju stretched: "You two talk, I'll continue to sleep...... Don't disturb me when you kiss. ”

Chu Xianzhao watched her staggering back into the house, slammed the door shut, leaving the two embarrassed for a while, Chu Xianzhao stood up and walked to Su Nianyu and hugged her, put his face on her mouth and closed his eyes

Eyeball.

Su Nianyu held his hand and said softly, "Xiao Zhao...... I want to go back to Yinguo. ”

"Well, me too. ”

"I mean I want to be alone...... Get back. ”

The aroma of porridge in the kitchen kept wafting out, and the tone of the two was gentle, Chu Xianzhao took her hand, opened the brocade box and stuffed a piece of pastry into her mouth: "What if I say I won't let you go?"

Su Nianyu smiled, swallowed the pastry, and said softly: "What can I do if you don't let me go, I'm all yours anyway, you can do whatever you say...... It's just that I really want to go back and see, Sabbatical City...... It has never been our home. ”

Chu Xianzhao was silent for a moment, and pinched the white sugar cake: "I also want to go back to Yinguo, this trip is different from what I thought...... Is it tiring you to be with me?"

Su Nianyu shook her head and said stubbornly: "No, I know that Xiaozhao is more tired than all of us, and it is not good for us to help you." She rubbed Chu Zhao's face and let Chu Zhaozhao sleep on her lap, Chu Zhaozhao played with her round and silky chin and said softly: "I can see that you are safe, you have helped me a lot, and many people have died...... He's dead. ”

"Xiao Zhao, we've known each other for almost a year, right? Do you remember the first time we met?" Her tone gently stroked the young man's face, Chu Xianzhao thought about it and subconsciously pinched her chin with heavy strength: "I'll catch you, you beat me, no one dares to beat me like that since I was a child, even my sister." ”

The woman laughed and said, "Then now that I'm yours, you can take revenge on me as much as you want." She got close to her face and put on a wanton look, Chu Xianzhao put his arms around her neck and let her cheeks close to herself: "Ha, then I can't bear it, I think the best thing I've ever encountered in my life is that I was beaten by you that time." ”

"Little fool!" she said with disgust, "there have been many, many things that have happened since then...... I'm worried about you when you go to war, and I've been praying for you all the time...... Did you know that when I used to live in the palace, every day I wanted to hear your footsteps coming from the door, push open the door and pretend to startle me...... Actually, I'm pretending to be scared by you, and I like to see you laugh. ”

Chu Xianzhao frowned and asked directly, "Since you like me, I like you too...... Then why are you still leaving?"

"Because...... Because you're so stressed, I like the carefree you you used to be...... Instead of the current you, who have been pushed into battle...... It's true that a man wielding a sword to kill an enemy is handsome, but I ...... I still like you who can live with me safely. She was silent for a few moments before she spoke.

"Peace and ......" Chu Xianzhao frowned, and said in a stiff tone: "I paid a lot of price for your peace, in fact, it's nothing, someone has to come out to block the enemy's sword for you, men are like this, if I don't be cruel to myself, many people will die in vain because of my weakness." ”

"I know, but you weren't like this before......" She sniffed and said softly: "Xiao Zhao, you have done what no one in the history of Yinguo can do, the people of Xilin can't hurt you, and now even Yan Fu has been taken down by you, but we ...... Ye Weiwei and I have embarrassed you, it shouldn't have been like this, we have become an existence like an oil bottle, in fact, I am still very happy...... Watching you grow up day by day, and because of this, I feel that you have become a stranger, and I want to go home......"

"No, absolutely not. Chu Xianzhao took a deep breath and carefully considered the sentence, "You are my sustenance, many times I have faced a dead end, and the pictures flashing in my head are all of you, you are the things that are important to me...... What about family and country affairs or something?"

The woman in her arms said stubbornly: "I don't think we're talking about the same thing. ”

"You think you girls make me feel tired? No, not really, I'm happy to be with you. Chu Xianzhao shook his head and said.

"Or do you think I'm still putting pressure on you, that's why you want to leave me?" Chu Xianzhao grabbed her arm and said, Su Nianyu patted his arm softly and said softly, "Do you listen to me?" ”

"I have encountered far more bad things than good things in my life, until one day I met you, since the ten years since the Peking University Massacre, I have done everything to survive, especially the years when I was an assassin, I was afraid of it, and I could die at any time...... Xiao Zhao, I'm not afraid of hardship, I'm really not afraid, especially after meeting you, there are so many women in the entire Yin country, I am definitely not the most beautiful and worthy of your trust...... But no matter what, there are more good things after meeting you than the bad things that came before you combined...... I know you're a good guy and you don't want to let down the girls who trust you. ”

"Even if it is your concubine, whether it is your side concubine, even if it is a little ugly, no matter what kind of title I use, I have no complaints, I am satisfied...... But I can't help you with anything, I'm not the same kind of woman as General Hua, I can only help you play tunes and chat with you at most to relieve boredom, I can't do anything else, I'm worried that if one day you don't want me, I will become a burden to you, but you are still happy with me on the surface, thinking about it like that, I feel distressed tears are going to fall, I don't feel sorry for myself, but I feel sorry for you......"

"Why do you want to think about such strange things?" Chu Xuanzhao said weakly.

"It's all your fault!"

"Y-my fault?!"

"You are really strange about you, obviously born in the emperor's family but not at all like a child born in the princely family, I would rather you be a little romantic, timid and fearful, and those ordinary noble children get drunk and occasionally beat and scold me, if this can make you happy, I will also be very happy, this is my earliest thought, I am afraid that you will think I am strange so I have not told you." ”

"You are really strange about you, obviously born in the emperor's family but not at all like a child born in the princely family, I would rather you be a little romantic, timid and fearful, and those ordinary noble children get drunk and occasionally beat and scold me, if this can make you happy, I will also be very happy, this is my earliest thought, I am afraid that you will think I am strange so I have not told you." ”

Without waiting for Chu Xianzhao to speak, she looked at Chu Xianzhao deeply and said softly: "When I was in the warm building before, I also wanted to get married, even if it was a concubine, most men are like this, they were very good to you at the beginning, and when they like you, they will spoil you, and if they don't like you, they will drive you away and change you to a younger and more beautiful girl...... I know you're not that kind of person, but it's because you're not that kind of person that I feel scared, because you're so good to us, so good that I think you're not suppressing something, obviously you're very unhappy or depressed. ”

"You're thinking too much. ”

"But that's how women are!" her voice suddenly became louder, and then she grabbed the corner of her skirt a little shyly, and her voice became quieter: "We women are like this...... When you're not good to us, we always think about when you're going to be good to us, and if you're too good to us, we're worried about when you're tired of playing and don't want us, and that's how we are......"

Chu Xianzhao sighed in a low voice: "How could I not want you, I have my own responsibilities, and I also have a sense of you, I am good to you, you are pressured, if you are not good to you, you feel relaxed, I don't want this, I-"

"Then can you marry me? Like an ordinary family marrying, you don't want any silk and satin, and you don't want a fragrant car or a BMW, just a few red candles and a wedding dress, can you promise me?"

"How can our Chu family marry a family that is as shabby as a few red candles and a wedding dress, if I want to marry you, the wedding dress you are wearing must be like the queen's phoenix robe, and the whole country will sing and cheer for you. Chu instantly summoned and coaxed.

"But I don't want that...... You see, that's the problem, what I want you feel shabby, what you give me I don't like, that's the problem...... We're still not suitable...... At least not right now. ”

"Are you leaving me?"
