"I'm hungry and want a bowl of noodles. Chu Xianzhao didn't directly refuse her, playing with the orange floating on the water.

She left silently, and after a while, she took a silk wide cloth and a cloud-colored robe and hung it aside: "Your Highness, the face will be ready soon." ”

"Add more chopped green onions......"

"Got it. Her words slowly drifted into Chu Xianzhao's ears, fortunately, there was a feeling of hunger in his stomach, so that he did not feel comfortable all over, and he slept dead in the bucket of water, he climbed out of the bathtub, put on the cloud-colored robe, and gently closed the door of the bath room, leaving only a shallow candlelight, flickering in the darkness.

Chu Xianzhao sat in the pavilion with a bowl, Su Younu stood behind him, combed his wet long hair for him, combed his long black and shiny hair to the back of his head, and then pulled the top and side hair into a simple sideburns, fixed with a hairpin, looking very elegant and elegant, he felt her slender hands tighten on his head, not forcefully, with a crispy and numb feeling.

"Does your shoulder still hurt?" he rolled up a large ball of noodles and swallowed it, making a slugging sound.

"Thanks to His Highness's medicine, it doesn't hurt anymore. ”

"Why did you come back so late, did something happen?"

"My brother just came to the Eagle Wing, and he took me out to eat delicious food. She had a smile in her eyes.

"Oh......" The two of them talked sentence by sentence, and the content of the conversation was mostly plain, but they didn't feel embarrassed, Chu Xianzhao suddenly felt that if his mother was not dead, it must be like Su Younu, who gave him delicious noodles on weekdays, sent a few thick quilts when he was cold, and occasionally gave him two warm hugs when he was sad.

As for the woman wielding a long sword in the moonlight on a black horse, it seems to exist only in the story.

"Sister Young Slave, I met a very interesting person today, her name is Su Nianyu, and she is also surnamed Su like you, but she is from the north. He said with a fluttering eyebrow.

"Did you meet in the Qinglou?" her words made Chu Xianzhao feel like he had been struck by lightning, but she couldn't refute it, "Yes...... But she ......" he couldn't say a word for a long time, he turned his head to see if it was her expression, whether it was shame or anger, like his sister, but she said, "You go on, leave me alone." ”

"Hmm...... She should be a few years older than you and your sister, and she was forced to leave Libei because of the wolf soldiers and came to Lin'an City......" Speaking of this, Su Younu suddenly interrupted him: "Your Highness, Libei is not called Libei now, it is called Shangkang." ”

After Liu Kang entered Libei, when he looked at the word "Libei" stained with blood and ashes on the city gate, he wanted to repair it well, but a soldier in his hand said that instead of washing and protecting the word Libei again, it was better to change the name of the city directly, and the cost was not much different, anyway, this small country is also His Majesty the Emperor, and you can change it as you want! Liu Kang adopted the soldier's suggestion at that time, and directly changed the departure from the north to Shangkang, as a subsidiary jurisdiction of the Bottle State, and let one of his children manage it for himself.

"Leaving the North...... Much better than Shangkang, isn't it?" he said softly.

Su Younu thought about it, no longer refuted, and continued to listen to him: "Su Nianyu, she told me that women are very pitiful, and she lost her home when she was very young, just like you, she lost her home when she was very young, but you came to the palace, and she went to the Qinglou...... I haven't experienced that feeling of ruining a country, but I know it must be uncomfortable. ”

"What about after that?" she rested her chin on Chu Xuanzhao's head and listened quietly.

"I went to her because she had something to do with the palace assassination, and she was the assassin who escaped that night, and I should have executed her on the spot, but I didn't want to embarrass her, she told me a lot of things I didn't know, war, death, disaster...... and some stories about my mother, Princess Lou Huan. When Su Nianyu recounted those haunting past events, her pupils carried indifference, anger, wisdom and ...... Grief is like a dusty mirror blown by the wind, showing the rough past of the mirror owner in his eyes.

"You say I'm not cowardly, I don't even dare to kill a female assassin, I always make my sister angry in the palace, and I don't know how to comfort her, I knelt like a fool and didn't see her all night, I don't know how to help you when my sister embarrasses you, every time it's the eldest brother who helps me clean up the mess. He lowered his head like a wounded lion cub.

Su Younu shook his head gently: "You think too complicated, you are just a child, how can you carry so many things." ”

"But my father, the Emperor, was already on the battlefield when he was my age, and I could only sit here and sigh, and I could do nothing. He just wanted to sigh, only then did he remember what Su Nianyu told him to sigh and sigh one year older, so he stiffly held back.

"You're the best person I've ever met, really, better than all the best people I've ever seen combined, and if I had a brother, I'd like you. ”

Chu Xianzhao was suddenly a little embarrassed.

"Actually, I sometimes think about how good it would be if you were my own sister, Chu Xun would also treat you as a sister, and he wouldn't embarrass you like he does now. His childish words made Su Younu laugh, this was the happiest time Chu Xianzhao had ever seen her smile, and her smile was half a point brighter than the last time he gave him a golden silk pink delicacy bell group.

"How can a man pray for so many good deeds? Sometimes it is a great blessing to be able to see the golden sun every day. She whispered in her ear, as if she were telling him a very important secret.

Chu Xianzhao looked at her blankly, he touched her face, found a comfortable angle to lie in her arms, and had a smile on his face.

They snuggled up to the edge of the pool, watching the skyline gradually whiten, the sleepiness accumulated day and night was released in her arms, and Su Younu hummed a song softly in her mouth, gentle and vague.

In the cool wind, she watched the sky and waited quietly, waiting......
