Chapter 8: Time for Two
After waking up, I found that in the woods, on a cold night, Qi Han was by my side, seeing that I was awake, I breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "You finally woke up." ”
I shook the water off my hair and asked, "Why is this here?" ”
Qi Han spread his hands: "The boatman is frightened, if Concubine Yun rows the boat away, I can only take you here." Don't worry, the Guards will be coming soon. ”
I shook my head: "Impossible, it's so big, if it's a search, one night must not be enough-" Speaking of this, I suddenly remembered Qi Min's words, what's going on? Qi Min, what do you mean?
Qi Han didn't care: "It's not a big deal, it's just that you're cold?" ”
"It's okay, it's not cold." I forced a smile.
He suddenly hugged me: "This way it won't be cold, and I don't have a flint or fire fold or anything like that, so I can't make a fire at this time." ”
I was a little overwhelmed by him, and after a while, he said, "It's okay." ”
He smiled softly, smiling happily: "I thought Chu Xi was not afraid of heaven and earth, why are you embarrassed now?" ”
I was not convinced: "How can I have! ”
He tried some more force to hold me tight: "Really? ”
I was encircled in his arms, and the warmth came through a little bit, and there was a faint fragrance of water-soaked plants, this smell seemed to have been smelled somewhere, where? I shook my head vigorously, and I couldn't remember.
Qi Han smiled: "Your hairpin ring probably fell into the water, if it is uncomfortable to scatter, just tie it with a belt." As he spoke, he tore a silver-gray strap from his cuff and gave it to me.
I took the strap and muttered, "No, I was just thinking about things, and my hair was still loose and comfortable." "I held the strap in my hand.
"Do you like loose hair? No wonder you had your hair loose at that meeting. He was thoughtful.
I asked, "Which time?" "I'll just have my hair covered in green silk in the courtyard, how could he see it?
"It's the ugly time you cried!" He reminded with a smile.
It dawned on me, "W-you?" ”
He teased: "Otherwise, is it the imperial brother?" ”
"You, you, you, how can you be?"
"Appreciate the chrysanthemum, and then walk around, and see someone crying."
I smiled embarrassedly: "That, accident, accident." ”
He suddenly asked seriously, "Can I know what's going on?" Brother Huang bullied you, you want to go home? ”
I was a little speechless, and I wanted to say it several times, but I didn't know what to say.
After a long time, he smiled: "It's too stupid to make excuses, okay, don't ask." ”
I puffed up and said, "You're stupid! ”
He raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh, yes, isn't it a young man, who is independent and gentle like jade?" Isn't it talented and beautiful, resisting thousands of miles of enemies, and bravely championing the three armies? ”
I listened to him say all my drunken words, and I wanted to jump up and hit him, but now I despise myself even more, what a shame!
He looked at my puffed up and remorseful expressions, and couldn't laugh to himself.
I gave him a blank look and didn't speak.
After a long time, he hugged me tighter again, gently put his head on the top of my hair, and said softly, "Chuxi, you seem to have changed into a different person." ”
When I heard this, my heart suddenly beat faster and I became nervous again.
He continued, "I prefer this you, though, elves are cute but silly. ”
My face was flushed at this point, and I didn't dare to talk casually.
He paused for a long time and sighed lightly: "Born in the emperor's family, Chu Xi, I am not so perfect. ”
I replied softly, "I know." ”
He smiled wryly, "You don't know, you don't know anything," he paused and called, "Eighth sister-in-law." ”
My heart ached, and I struggled to get out of his arms, but he wouldn't let go.
I stopped struggling and sneered, "Isn't the ninth brother still letting go?" ”
He smiled reluctantly: "Chuxi, you are angry." "Affirmative, not interrogative, his firm tone made me instantly angry.
I shook off his hand suddenly, stood up, and said indifferently: "The ninth brother will definitely be able to match the reputation of the fifth master in the world in the future." ”
He also stood up: "I won't." ”
I sneered, "Really? Say you like it to someone you've only met a few times, isn't it? ”
Emotions flowed in his clear eyes: "A poetry confidant, a song bosom friend, and a heart, isn't it enough?" It's all your fault, weishenme knows what I know, thinks what I think, makes me unfilial, disloyal and unjust, against the will of my father, against the thoughts of the emperor, against the order of the monarch, against the love of brothers! ”
I was speechless by what he said.
He walked towards me step by step, every step seemed to step on my heart, I had a voice in my heart telling me to avoid him, but, the body was out of control, I just looked at him in a daze, and then gently hugged me in his arms again, and then gently, carefully said to me: "Chuxi, I rarely promise anything, but my soldiers know that I promise a thousand gold, although now I have no way to face the world and embrace you in my arms, but, believe me, one day, I can hold you like this without any scruples, trust me. ”
I froze in place, there was always a cold feeling when I said this, Ah Han, what is he going to do?
He still hugged me and didn't move, stroked my long hair, and said softly, "Chuxi ......"
I'm in a state of turmoil, what the hell should I do? I felt like I didn't know anything, as if some conspiracy had stretched out like a net, and I didn't know it, and I was in it.
I don't know anything, so I opened my mouth with difficulty: "Ah Han......"
I obviously felt his body stagnate, I closed my eyes, hesitated for a long time, and still asked, "You, do you have any plans?" ”
He didn't seem to know what I was going to ask: "Chuxi, what do you mean?" ”
I was sure that he must have understood what I was asking, but since I answered like this, I still blocked the words I wanted to ask and shook my head: "It's nothing." ”
"Chuxi, you don't need to know anything, just leave it to me."
I nodded, it's better to be unaware, it's always better to be in the dark than to tear up the truth, so that I don't get tired.
He hugged me and sat down: "Sleep for a while, this forest is very big, it's still early to wait for the Royal Forest Army." ”
I didn't want to sleep, but if I was awake and speechless, I didn't know what to say to Ah Han, so I leaned on him to close my eyes and pretend to be asleep.
After a while, he said softly: "Chu Xi, would you rather pretend to be asleep than talk to me?" ”
I was debunked, a little sneering, and quietly faced him: "I don't know what to say." ”
He begged, "Say whatever you want." ”
I thought for a moment, "Ahan, I'll tell you a story." ”
"Okay." He agreed tightly, as if he was afraid that I would not speak, and looked at me intently.
"Once upon a time there was a prince who was very beautiful, but he was not weak," he chuckled and listened, coughing lightly, and my face suddenly flushed, "I didn't mean you! Listen carefully! He nodded, staring at me with starry eyes, and I continued unnaturally, "He fights in disguise, and every battle is victorious, and the warriors sincerely surrender to him," I suddenly turned to him and asked, "Do you know his end?" ”
He nodded: "He's dead." ”
I lost my mind for a moment, the sentence "he died" was so light, as if Ah Han was also so light, like a mist that would dissipate at any time, I stretched out my hand and hugged him: "Ah Han, you won't, there is me." ”
He was like a sculpture, for a long time, and muttered: "Born in the emperor's family, this is fate, and there is no escape." His expression was sad and resolute.
My heart twitched hard, and I hugged him tighter and tighter: "No, there is me." ”
I don't know if I can say, "With me", I can't actually do anything, I have no power, no money, no power, my mother's family is just a farmer, and the prince doesn't like me, but I just want to give Ah Han a little comfort, even if it's just a little, a little bit.
He hugged me and replied in a low voice, "Yes." ”
I gently hugged him: "Ah Han, you can sleep for a while, there is me." ”
He hesitated for a moment and replied, "Okay." ”
I immediately felt a sinking on my shoulders, almost didn't hold him, hugged him vigorously, slowly sat down against the tree, gently lifted his head to a comfortable position, and I sat quietly under the tree to look at the stars.
