Chu Xianzhao looked at Su Changyan's slender and graceful figure, and didn't say the sentence sister, aren't you hot when you wear so many clothes in the bath room?

The word dream confused Su Changyan, but the movements of her hands did not stop, but rubbed harder and harder: "My dream is to hope that His Royal Highness can be safe and live a happy life in the future." ”

Chu Xianzhao smiled bitterly and said, "Hey, hey, I'm talking about your dream, why are you involved with me again." ”

"Let me guess, after the restoration of the West Facing Dynasty, you will restore your West Dynasty to the glory of a thousand years ago, and be a generation of empresses, right?"

Chu Xianzhao lay on the edge of the bathtub and looked at Su Changyan, although Su Changyan said that she was his personal maid, she was talented and intelligent, and she never forgot to read and write, Chu Xianzhao recited aloud a thousand-character essay when he was a child, and Su Changyan could almost recite it word for word after listening to it a few times, when Chu Xianzhao finally memorized it, it was not difficult to let her recite it upside down, she was in strong contrast with Chu Xianzhao, who didn't like to read all day long and thought about digging out the bird's nest, in fact, she was also very sensitive to national politics, and it was not much worse than Chu Xun who listened to politics since childhood。

"No, being the Empress of Xilin is just my responsibility as a descendant of the Su royal family, and it can't be regarded as a dream. ”

She smiled and stood behind Chu Xianzhao to wipe the water beads from his hair.

Chu Xianzhao said with a smile: "Tell me if it's okay, maybe I can help you achieve it." ”

She smiled softly, "Does Your Highness really want to help me achieve it?"

"Let's talk about it. ”

Chu Xianzhao stretched out his hand to scratch her slender willow waist, and Su Changyan smiled and shouted that His Highness won't tell you if he makes it bad again.

Chu instantly summoned his teeth and claws and said that he dared not to tell me the family law for a while, and the two of them were laughing and playing in the bath, as if they had returned to their childhood.

In the end, Su Changyan was carried into the bathtub by him, lying in Chu Xianzhao's arms and smiling warmly, like a little snow rabbit caught by him.

Chu Xianzhao said seriously: "I'm serious, what do you want most?"

Su Changyan blushed and hesitated, leaned into Chu Xianzhao's ear and whispered a word, Chu Xianzhao slowly stopped laughing after hearing this, rubbed her face quite distressedly and said: "I really can't help you realize this wish of you, although I am the son of Yinguo, but many things are not yet my final say, just now I asked you if you regret it, you said that you will not regret death, now I tell you that we may not be able to talk about this matter for the rest of our lives, do you regret it now?"

She held Chu Xianzhao's face and said softly: "How can I regret it?" Your Highness is my only relative in this world, and Your Highness is willing to give it to Your Highness even if it wants my life." ”

"Don't talk about the fateful east

West, we all have to live well, until we die of old age. ”

Chu Xianzhao hugged her body tighter and tighter, feeling that she was so fragile that she felt as if she would be broken at the touch of it.

He couldn't help but think of the Empress of the Shotai who fell to her death on the city wall, she didn't know what to say when she hugged her father, and then jumped off the city wall and died.

The father stood aside like a fool and did nothing.

If it was him, he would rather fall down with her than stand aside and be indifferent.

She looked at Chu Xianzhao with wide eyes and asked, "What is Your Highness's dream?"

"Didn't I tell you many times when I was a kid that I wanted to be the best swordsman. ”

"And now?"

"Now......"

Chu Xianzhao smiled, her hand was very dishonest under her waist, she blushed and gently pinched Chu Zhaozhao's waist, and said softly: "Your Highness——"

"I'm not afraid to tell you, I've found the clues of the Great Qin Emperor's Mausoleum, I plan to go to the Great Qin Emperor's Mausoleum in two days, there is a shocking secret about the future and the past, I won't tell you this first, I'm afraid your heart won't be able to bear it." After that, I plan to go to Shuyue, it is said that the army of the Yin State has begun to converge to Shuyue, maybe I can ask my father to ask for a general's position, although the first appearance of Tie Shura caught them off guard, but the Qing'an Dynasty is not so easy to deal with, I want to go to the Nanlu side to see, if I can find a suitable ally it would be better. ”

She said with a worried face: "Your Highness is going to find the Great Qin Emperor's Mausoleum, do you want me to send someone to accompany His Highness?"

Chu Xianzhao shook his head and said, "No need, I'll go alone, and you are not allowed to tell others where I am, and I will come back to you after I am done." ”

Su Changyan hummed lightly, and didn't ask too much further, Chu Xuanzhao said that what was okay was no problem.

Chu Xianzhao gently pinched her soft earlobes and said, "Don't send anyone to follow me, if I pull them out, I'll swell your little ** when I come back, believe it or not?"

The charm between her eyebrows and eyes was soft, and only the um-huh that came out of her nose was left, Chu Xianzhao smiled angrily: "Don't wait for later, I will let you see how good His Highness's swordsmanship is in a while." ”

"Your Highness, may I ask you something?"

She turned to face Chu Xuanzhao, reached out and wrapped her arms around his neck and whispered in his ear.

Chu instantly summoned her to be so coquettish, and he was relaxed again, and said in a trembling voice: "That's it, even if I want to pick up the stars and beacon fire for you, I am willing." ”

"What beacon fire?"

She looked at Chu Xianzhao in confusion, and poured out that wish in Chu Zhaozhao's ear in a much smaller voice than just now, and after Chu Xianzhao heard it, he sighed again, and hugged her with pity on his face

The body said softly: "I have just said, I really can't marry you as a wife, and I can't let you go back to Yinguo as a concubine, you know that the status of an illegitimate child in the world dynasty is the lowest, if we have a child between us, then he is an illegitimate child, this child will be poked in the back from childhood to adulthood, if he is allowed to grow up under the belly of everyone, it is better not to start from the beginning." ”

She looked at Chu Xianzhao's eyes, pursed her red lips, and said confidently and calmly: "Whoever dares to slander my children, I will take off their heads with my own hands." ”

She deliberately emphasized her current identity, and Chu Xianzhao said helplessly: "But...... I was not married to you before, if we secretly had a child between us, what would the people of your west think of you, many invisible arrows would shoot at you, I can't always have the opportunity to stand up and protect you, you will be hurt. ”

She still shook her head stubbornly and said, "My brother is dead, and I am left in the Su royal family now, and I will always have an heir after I come to the west...... I just want a child, and His Highness can't satisfy me with this little request?"

Chu Xianzhao had a headache and said, "This matter really can't be discussed, don't be so stubborn." ”

She slowly let go of the arm that was surrounding Chu Xianzhao, lowered her head, her eyelashes fluttered slightly, and she said with a little crying: "Why does Your Highness want me to come back to Xilin...... These days of leaving His Highness...... I'm lonely and I don't know what I can do?"

She didn't want Chu Xianzhao to feel that she was weak, she sat in Chu Xianzhao's arms with her knees and cried softly, looking very pitiful.

Chu Xianzhao suddenly felt guilty, and the two of them were speechless in the bathtub, so they hugged quietly until the hot water slowly cooled down.

Chu Xianzhao carried her out, she raised her head in his arms, and looked at him pitifully.

Finally drying off his body and getting dressed, Su Changyan returned to the bed and lay down softly, throwing a jade back to Chu Xuanzhao, just not looking at his face.

Chu Xianzhao asked cautiously, "Angry?"

"It's so tiring to be alive......"

Chu Xianzhao just wanted to say something, but she didn't turn around, but said softly: "Does Your Highness really understand the situation on this side of the Northern Regions now? It's better for me to come to a sword depot in the west, don't think that your real enemy is the Qing'an Dynasty, as your Yinguo Iron Cavalry continues to move south, stirring up the stagnant water of the Tianxia Dynasty, how many thousand-year-old kings who have been deposited under the pool will soon surface on the surface, and these forces are innumerable, and no one knows whether they are friends or enemies. Even if Yinguo now gets the Tiannan Road from Shuyue to Nanlu, no one can give an answer to whether this road is a way of life or a way of death. As soon as you, your cavalry, set foot on the land of the Southern Continent, many will come out by then. ”

She said with a hint of desolation: "After all, this world,

The people who want war are not only you. ”

Chu Xianzhao lay down on her side beside her and sighed: "I didn't expect that although you are in the west, you know the movements of the Yinguo Iron Cavalry very well. What you said is not wrong at all, these are the words that I have never said to my father in my heart. ”

"Your Highness doesn't know, if the war in the world really breaks out because of the Yin country, how many countries will be ruined like us in the west, and at that time, the people of the entire southern continent will go north, and many, many people will die in that war, and the Yin country will become the target of the public, watching the world fall into a full-scale war, is this the future that His Highness wants?"

Chu Xianzhao smelled her quiet fragrance, and said with a wry smile: "But there is no way to do it, there is only so much land and grain in the world, if you don't go to conquer, you will be conquered." ”

Su Changyan turned around suddenly, looked straight into Chu Xuanzhao's eyes and said, "Does Your Highness think that if you win the battle against Emperor Yan Mang and Tantai Ninghua, you will have the confidence to win the Qing'an Dynasty?" There are too many people in this world who want you Chu Xianzhao to die, and His Highness has become a thorn in the side of too many people, I don't want Your Highness to be injured, I just want Your Highness to be safe, is this kind of mood understandable?"

"If I don't pick up the sword to win these wars, but instead be a mediocre and incompetent prince of the Yin Kingdom to spend my life in peace and security, as you said, will you like this kind of Chu Xuan? Chu Xianzhao sighed and said: "People can't help themselves in the rivers and lakes, the world is a stage that is confused by black and white, and all of us are in it. ”

"If you can't help yourself, how can you be self-conscious? Listening to His Highness's words, he seems to be very disappointed in this world. ”

For the first time, Su Changyan said to Chu Xianzhao in a mocking tone: "The war is caused by you men, we women are just thinking about how to live, Your Highness is now outstanding in war, will you continue to do those things that harm the people of other countries like Chu Xiaohua in the future?"

Chu Xianzhao frowned and didn't say anything.

"Your Highness thinks what I said is wrong?"

"That's right, I'll take these words to heart. ”

Although Su Changyan did not show his hatred for Yinguo Tieqi in front of him, he understood Su Changyan's mood very well, she can now be called a sentence of more than 10,000 people, but there are very few people around her who can confide, as she said, all her relatives are dead, and the only person who can be called family with her is herself.

She gave her body to herself, just wanting a child to be the successor of Xilin in the future, but such a simple wish Chu Xuanzhao couldn't satisfy her.

Chu Xianzhao suddenly understood her bitterness and difficulty, the woman in front of him, who often knelt half-kneeling to dress and put on shoes for himself in his memory, was the strongest person among all the women he knew.

Compared with Su Changqing, she is more tired, no matter how much grievance Su Changqing has in her heart, she can't suffer a little girl who has witnessed the destruction of the country and the death of her mother, and has to wash and cook for the children of the initiator of all this.

She helped herself clean up her desk, fold the quilt, clean the yard, feed the koi, do laundry and cook, and get up in the middle of the night to check everything in the yard, day after day, year after year.

She didn't tell anyone about the bitterness and hardship of these things, but after coming back to Xilin to be the empress, she told Chu Xianzhao for the first time that she was tired of living.

But she is just a woman, Chu Xianzhao can't give her the life that an ordinary woman can have, even if she pretends to be strong, Chu Xianzhao understands the resentment in her heart very well.

Chu Xianzhao asked: "Sister, if you didn't use hundreds of thousands of people to forge swords in the first place, in the face of the large-scale invasion of the Yinguo Iron Cavalry when the soldiers and horses were strong, do you think you can win against us?"

She heard Chu Xuanzhao suddenly put the old accounts of Xilin and Yinguo up to talk, and said more and more angrily: "If my father doesn't forge so many swords to empty the treasury of Xilin, at least our army still has the strength to fight and can defend our homeland, and many people will not die." ”

Chu Xianzhao smiled and said, "But do you know why Xilin lost?" In the end, your peaceful life has been too long, you are adjacent to the Yin country but separated from the Golden Horde by a desert mountain, the cavalry of the Golden Horde cannot threaten your borders, even if the Emperor Bottle before Liu Kang usurped the throne is also your friend to the west, neither will nor dare to do anything to you, and our Yin country has been fighting with Yan Mang, and we have to be careful of the soldiers of the Golden Horde, it can be said that the enemy is on the back, if we don't strengthen our own soldiers, arm them with iron armor to fight to the death with the artillery of the Yan Mang, our Yin country will have died a long time ago!"

"But look at your Xilin, since the battle of the southern invasion eighty years ago, the Xilin has been living a stable life, when the rampant in the northern regions of the Xilin Euphorbia from a wolf and tiger division into a wine bag rice bag, you rely on the ancestors to leave the foundation to create a scene of national peace and security, this began to be as stable as Mount Tai Dynasty is actually leaking on all sides, an army that has not gone through a harsh war will soon forget how to fight, even if you don't go to forge a sword, with your so-called strongest state to face the Yin State Iron Cavalry, you will still be frightened by our cavalry to lose their armor。 Although the country is safe, forgetting the war will be dangerous, do you understand this truth, sister?"

Su Changyan muttered: "If you forget to fight, you will be in danger......"

"For a country, there is no better way to keep soldiers strong than war, since my father became emperor, the Yinguo Iron Cavalry has been sent out to fight for many years, and the thirst for victory has naturally become a habit. ”

Chu Xianzhao pillowed her jade arm and said with a smile: "Xilin loses is losing, and now Yan Mang has also lost, and Tantai Ninghua has also lost, this has become a happy ending for our Yinguo expedition,

We intend to let the rest of the country keep losing, and lose and lose......"

She muttered, "Will His Highness really be happy to live such a life?"

"I want you to be happy rather than I'm unhappy. ”

Under Chu Xuanzhao's intentional or unintentional touch, her body was as soft as mud, and she slowly turned to look at his face, pouting her full red lips, and said in a voice like a mosquito: "I just want a ......"

Chu Xianzhao turned her body domineeringly, and pretended to be vicious: "This matter is not negotiable. ”

She twitched her delicate nose, as if she wanted to cry again.

Chu Xianzhao was most afraid of seeing her like this, so he sighed softly, gently hugged her and slowly closed his eyes.

"Will His Highness and Princess Ye Weiwei be happy together?"

"That won't be known until later. ”

"In your heart, what kind of person is she? ”

"My wife. ”

"What about me?"

"My loved ones. ”

What exactly is love? She thought to herself, she once thought that men and women must love each other in order to accompany each other for a lifetime, she once felt this kind of thing, when she was still the princess of Xilin, many people gave her this kind of thing, her father Su Shuntian even when the Yinguo Iron Cavalry was in the city, knowing that the country would be ruined after today, but still put his hand on her and her brother's shoulders, this kind of self-confidence in holding power tightly made her no longer afraid, and she could completely smash everything in front of her that threatened her safety. After the country broke and her family died, when she came to the strange land of Yinguo, the only person who could make her feel love and warmth was her brother, and only Chu Xianzhao was left.

In her heart, she is more willing to be close to Chu Xuanzhao than her biological brother who looks at anyone like an enemy at that moment, only in front of him will she expose her vulnerable side, even if she cries a mess, he will not laugh at herself, she will only gently hug her, and say comforting words in her mouth.

She gently raised her hand to caress Chu Xianzhao's face, pressed her face to his chest and listened to the beating of his heart, after so many wars, Chu Xianzhao's heart was already scarred? But he was still willing to smile so happily in front of him, and did not bring the cruelty of those wars to her.

"What Your Highness wants to do, I understand, my Highness will be a hero in the future, no matter what kind of things happen. ”

Su Changyan said softly, "Your Highness has remembered, we must be happy." ”

"Good. ”

Chu Xianzhao's heart throbbed slightly inexplicably, and he hugged her tightly and didn't dare to move again, feeling the warm fragrance and slippery jade in his arms, and the corners of his mouth pursed a happy smile.

At this moment, he felt that the ambition of a king, the future of the world, was compared to his arms

's beauties are too insignificant.

When he was a child, Chu Xianzhao ate the sesame candy she stuffed into his mouth, and he smiled innocently, and his mouth was sweet.

Su Changyan looked at the love that was close at hand, always worried that he would disappear as soon as he woke up, and unconsciously burst into tears.

She didn't know when the tears flowed out, and she didn't know when the tears were wiped away by Chu Xianzhao, she just wanted to hug like this until the vicissitudes of life.
