There was no rain in the southwest tonight, and from time to time there were crows passing over the sky overhead.

On the stone bench under the trellis, I looked up into the distance.

The courtyard at night is quieter than during the day.

Yun Chu walked silently behind me through the path among the flowers, and I withdrew my eyes when he sat in front of me.

The night was cool, and he took out a delicate little teapot from between his sleeves as if he were juggling, and brought two cups by the way.

I looked at his movements in surprise and said in surprise, "Won't it be hot?" “

I saw that when the tea in the pot was poured into the cup, there were clear wisps of white smoke. "You try." Yun Chu smiled and handed the teapot to me.

When I put the back of my hand on it, I noticed that the temperature of the pot was pleasant.

"What is this made of?" I got interested, put down the glass of water in my hand, took the teapot from his hand with two hands, and held it in my hand to study it carefully.

Under the moonlight, I couldn't see anything strange, I played with it repeatedly for a while, and handed it to Yun Chu with my backhand, "Why do you always have some strange things that I don't know where to find them." ”

"Xiao Ling'er," Yun Chu paused in his voice, "It's hard for your senior brother to go around to collect treasures, and it's really a waste to put them there for you." ”

"Senior brother?" I reacted, so this teapot was found in that pile of objects.

I smiled and said, "It's true, it's not an exaggeration to say that Mingzhu is secretly invested." ”

I said very generously: "If you like it, take it, these things may not be taken away when you leave, and the days of living in the yard are just right for you to enjoy when you are bored." ”

Yun Chu smiled at the corner of his mouth and picked up the cup and motioned for me to drink, and he slowly took a sip of tea himself.

With the hot tea in my stomach, I held the cup in both hands.

Yun Chu raised his hand and knocked on the body of the teapot and said, "This pot was made into a double layer when it was fired. Therefore, even if you pour boiling tea inside, it will not be hot outside. "This kind of craftsmanship can be done in the southwest. It must have been bought from outside by a big family and transferred to my brother's side. I said with appreciation.

Drink between flowers. I sighed: "It's a pity that the wine made by Cui'er and the little girl will have to wait for ten or twenty days, otherwise it would be great to have a glass of hot wine at this time!" "Celebrating the reunion of old people?" Yun Chu raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile. "I can't talk about it, it's just that I can't think of him coming to the door today and saying something like that," I put down the cup in my hand, and my expression was a little gloomy. "When I was in Snow Country, the days I spent in the palace were simple. Snow Eagle hasn't taught me my homework for long. "When my father was so early, he arranged such a move in the southwest, and now I think about it and think it's incredible." "According to the circumstances. The country is peaceful and the people are rich, and I have also disguised myself as the capital of the Snow Country to go out of the palace to see it, and he actually has such a deep plan. "It's just that the thing I don't understand the most is, why is this pen buried thousands of miles away in the southwest?"

My eyes turned to Yun Chu's face and saw him with a breezy expression. There was a slight frown between his eyebrows.

The leaves fluttered gently in the wind, and I whispered, "Is there anything else I don't know?" ”

As soon as the words came out, I said with a wry smile on my face: "This is very helpless, in fact, I want to say that I don't know anything about their plans." ”

"Snow Eagle was out of the palace at the beginning. He said that he was an envoy to another country, and you know that place, last time I heard you talk to the Night Star Spirit. ”

Looking at the scattered fragments of my memory, I tried to string them together, but I didn't have a deep understanding of the world, and the beginning of a qiē was just a sudden crossing that began on that day.

The deepest impression and memory left by this world are all from this person around me!

"If there are so many questions, why are you?" Yun Chu wanted to speak and stopped.

The faint shadow of the flower was projected on the bluestone slab by the moonlight, and Yun Chu's eyes looked as bright as stars in the night.

"You ask me why I don't go to the City Lord's Mansion with him?" I looked at him thoughtfully, "Would you believe me if I said I hadn't had any of that since I heard about him?" ”

Yun Chu looked at me with a smile, but didn't answer.

I said to myself: "Even if this place in the southwest is the first time that my father ordered him to come? ”

"Do you know how many people are displaced and how many people die when the snow country dies."

"Snow Eagle was originally playing the brand of envoys to neighboring countries, but what about his family?"

I swallowed and didn't say those few words, I raised my head and looked at Yun Chu in amazement, "I saw him on the street this morning." "At that moment, I was sure of my thoughts, no matter how good the southwest is, it is not my credit, he can find his career here, find his own belonging, and it will be of great benefit to the southwest." "If I don't show up, will it have a great impact on the people here and on him?" I laughed and said, "If I can, what I want most is to help him with advice before leaving, and then give him the money I have brought to use on the right path." “

I stood up and said, "The southwest will not be a place where I will live for a long time, and since I have to leave sooner or later, I have nothing to think about." “

I turned to look at Yun Chu and said, "The most important thing is that it's me, even if I am a temporary guest in this courtyard, but I don't want to live in an outsider's place." “

Yun Chu's eyes didn't look at me, and he didn't react at all when he heard what he said just now. "Hey," I reluctantly stepped forward: "Why are you so inattentive, I just said a big call, are you listening?" “

Yun Chu raised his hand and grabbed the back of my hand and said, "Xiao Ling'er, look at the sky." “

The corners of my mouth twitched, and my first reaction was actually very funny, I wanted to say, do you want to ask me to see the moon?

Unexpectedly, in the next second, Yun Chu's beautiful voice sounded in my ears, simple and clear three words.

It's three words! "Look at the moon."

The corners of my mouth froze, the smile had not yet appeared, and I subconsciously followed his meaning, and my eyes were locked on the moon in the sky.

The bright moon on the original deep blue sky curtain was hidden by a cloud at some point, and the strange thing was that the cloud was not the color seen on weekdays, and there was a faint dark red light.

Looking a little weird, I squinted my eyes and heard Yun Chu say, "This moon phase is a little abnormal. ”

His tone sounded less relaxed than before: "Pay attention these days." ”

"Watch out for what?" I disagreed: "It may be raining, the southwest is already rainy, and the climate is changeable. ”

"Xiao Ling'er," Yun Chu turned his head, leaned down, and looked at me with both eyes, "Tomorrow morning, you ask someone to go to the City Lord's Mansion to deliver a message." ”

He pondered for a moment and changed his mind: "I still send a message to the captain of the guard who is checking at the city gate, and ask him to tell the city lord to pay attention to the movements inside and outside the city these days. ”

I was confused when I heard this, grabbed Yun Chu's arm and shook it, "They send guards to patrol the city every day, do I need to that heart?" Could it be nosy? “

I half-jokingly said, "Don't forget that I just rejected their boss in the afternoon, and at this time I sent someone to instruct me to patrol the city and pay attention to the movements, these are the duties of the guards." ”

"I'm not the wife of the city lord, even if I am the wife of the city lord, I can't care about it." "Don't you be afraid that when they see the messenger I have sent, they will fork them out and throw them into the river to feed the fish."

Yun Chu and I have a way of getting along with only two people, and usually at this time, he will definitely make fun of me.

However, this time, Yun Chu didn't smile for the first time, he said with a straight face: "Listen to me." ”

I looked at him in amazement for a few moments before I put away my playful expression and nodded

Cui'er leaned on the railing of the small building with a sad face, overlooking the courtyard.

"You swallowed three bowls of yellow lotus water early in the morning, what are you doing?" I put down my pen and glanced at her.

Cui'er turned her head sideways and said, "Girl, the weather was so good yesterday, why has the sky changed today." ”

"It's going to rain, can you manage it?" I walked over with a grin, still holding the paper in my hand, the ink on it was not dry, and I blew as I went.

The room was humid and muggy, and looking at the weather, it was really bad as Cui'er said.

"Are you worried that if the grapes can't be dried, the fruit wine won't be made?" It dawned on me.

"yes, I was busy yesterday, and I have to stop today."

"According to those grapes that were dried yesterday, I am afraid that the wine I make is not enough to drink."

"It's not enough, then drink less, you don't open a wine shop, this is the family's wine, doing fun."

"If you want to brew it, send some to the East Courtyard and give it to the son next door." Tsui Er said dejectedly.

"Also, the lord of the castle who came yesterday." Cui'er's voice was softer, whispering like a mosquito.

I laughed and said, "I agree with the rest, these two people will be exempted." ”

"This noble man next door, I'm worried about his stomach when I eat, he can't eat this dish, he can't eat that dish, let alone drink." I stuffed the ink-dried letter into a cardboard envelope, "As for the Snow City Lord you said, he, this fruit wine is too much for him to see, and people love to drink burning knives." "Coming down from the battlefield, you don't know Cui'er."

"So, if you have to worry about this wine for this and that, you might as well think about giving it to your girl." I winced my eyebrows at Cui'er and said, "Everything else is cloudy, you know?" "I'm the most important person to you."

"Yes, the most important thing is that you don't take me when you go out," Cui'er glanced at me angrily and said, "When the city lord left yesterday, I asked you to stay for a few days, and you said it so sincerely, why did you refuse?" ”

"Cui'er, you're not right, why did you mention the city lord twice in a while." I sniffed and said, "You really want me to live in the City Lord's Mansion?" You're going to follow? ”

Cui'er pushed me: "The girl said it." ”
