"Minister Shen Changfeng, please go to Broken Leaf City and guard the frontier!"

In the seventeenth year of Jingyun, one night in May. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info Shen Changfeng was dressed in armor and knelt in the huge palace. He looked down at the clean, shiny marble floor, reflecting his face. is already thirty years old, which is not considered to be a big age, but is in the prime of life.

The beads of sweat on the tip of his nose condensed one by one, rolled into a big bead, dripping on the ground, and became extraordinarily crisp in the empty palace. He really couldn't bear his temperament, raised his head to look at the middle-aged man sitting high on the dragon chair facing him, and repeated loudly again. "Minister Shen Changfeng, please go to Broken Leaf City and guard the frontier!"

"If you leave, then what should I do in this imperial city!" The emperor really couldn't refute it, he angrily slapped the dragon head on the armrest and stood up. He took a deep breath, calmed down his stern tone, and then softened himself. "The matter of Sheng An is that the royal family is sorry for you, but you don't have to hurt yourself. After her big wedding tomorrow, she will go to the fiefdom with the Marquis of Jin Zhao, and you will have no big problem in the imperial city. ”

Hearing the word "Sheng An" in his heart, Shen Changfeng's eyes trembled unconsciously. He replied to the emperor with a very resolute attitude. "It has been more than ten years since the emperor ascended the throne, but the Turkic Uighurs and other ethnic groups have been harassing the frontier and ...... the courtiers"

"Don't tell me these high-sounding reasons, of course I know what is really in your heart." The emperor slowly walked down from the dragon chair, he stopped in front of Shen Changfeng, and dissuaded him with a serious tone. "At the beginning of my accession to the throne, no one was on my side, and the uprisings in the four places were quelled by you with the army. Over the years, I have moved a lot of people, but I only go up and not down for you! Those officials all said that you were a great meritorious, when did I punish you! ”

Shen Changfeng secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva. "The minister knows that the emperor is a great minister, but the minister has made up his mind."

"The minister has already thought about it. After Weichen left, the position of the general was assumed by Murong Chui, and the leader of the guard was held by Xu Lin. ”

The emperor snorted coldly. "So you already arranged everything." He held his forehead and waved his hand at Shen Changfeng and said. "If you want to go, I can't stay. Let's go! His last two words were very resolute. Seeing that the emperor was relieved, Shen Changfeng's heart finally fell.

When he really wanted to leave Chang'an, Shen Changfeng felt reluctant for the first time. He shook his hands and slowly walked to the gate of the palace, and saw three people standing in the dark.

Hearing someone coming, the three of them hurriedly leaned out to take a look, and when they saw that it was Shen Changfeng coming out, they immediately surrounded them.

"Brother Shen, are you really going to Broken Leaf City?" Xu Lanze wrinkled her good-looking little face, there was a touch of crystal in her eyes, and she held Shen Changfeng's hand with both hands, for fear that he would disappear in the next second.

Murong Chui and Xu Lin also looked worried, but the friendship between men never went without words.

Xu Lanze saw that Shen Changfeng was silent, and his heart was even more anxious. "Brother Shen! You speak! How can you leave us silently and go to that hellish place in Shattered Leaf City! She looked at Shen Changfeng angrily, and saw that tears were about to fall. Are you necessary for her? ”

Xu Lin saw that his sister was open-mouthed, and immediately stopped her. "What nonsense! After treating my eldest brother for so many years, I already know what kind of person he is. Since you've made up your mind, brother, we don't have much to say. ”

"Brother!" Xu Lanze glared at Xu Lin angrily, feeling more and more aggrieved in his heart. Why is there no one to speak for themselves? "On weekdays, you all call you brothers, why is Brother Shen leaving, you don't stop you!"

Murong sighed, who had been silent. He crossed over to Xu Lanze and patted Shen Changfeng on the shoulder. "Will you go back to Chang'an?"

Shen Changfeng shook his head, hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled. "Don't go back, stay there to defend your family and country."

"It's close to the Western Regions, and there are a lot of good-looking girls, if you find a good one, you will become your own child." Murong Trai was still out of tune as usual. Shen Changfeng was teased by him like this, and his mood was also relieved a lot. immediately ridiculed the three of them,

"Don't talk about me. You are not much younger than me in two years, and Xiaolan-" Xu Lanze raised his head suspiciously when he heard her call his name. "It's all twenty girls, so if you don't get married, you won't be able to get married."

Xu Lanze listened to his words and pouted very displeased. "I'm not married! I can only marry you Brother Shen in my life, and I can't look down on other men! She said so boldly, her face was not colored, but Xu Lin listened to her sister's explicit words and was ashamed for her.

"The girl's family doesn't know how to be ashamed!" After that, Xu Lin pulled Xu Lanze to his side. "Big brother, when are you going to leave?"

Shen Changfeng looked at the dark sky, and the full moon showed that today was the fifteenth. "Let's go now, the more you delay, the more troublesome it will be."

Hearing him speak, the three of them were shocked again. Murong Chui's expression sank, put away the hippie smile he had just now, and said in a low voice. "But tomorrow is Sheng An's wedding day, you better see her before leaving."

"Fate is determined, since I don't have this fate with her, that's it." Shen Changfeng sighed. He waved goodbye to the three of them. "Good brothers, farewell. But I'm not coming to Chang'an, you can come to Broken Leaf City to see me! ”

Xu Lanze saw him leaving quickly, his back was about to be covered by darkness, and he hurriedly wanted to chase after him, but Xu Lin firmly held his hand. "There's no point in chasing after him, just let him go in style."

Shen Changfeng paced, there was no sound in the imperial city at night, and a few dog barks became more and more lonely in the night. As he walked, he suddenly raised his head and smiled bitterly. "How did you get here?" As he looked at it, there was a closed gate in front of him, and a plaque hung on the door that read "Princess Sheng'an Mansion".

At this time, the princess's mansion was already silent, and she thought she had fallen asleep a long time ago. He skillfully rolled over the furnishing wall and walked to the master bedroom. Seeing that the dim light was still flickering, the silhouette of a woman was reflected on the white window paper.

He looked at the woman's vague outline for a long time, knowing that the candles in the room were extinguished, and he heard the sound of the woman falling asleep, and he still stood there still. After looking at it for a while, Shen Changfeng searched all over his body, and took out a dark sachet from his waist, and he hung it on a young peach tree outside the window, ensuring that he could see this sachet as soon as he opened the window.

"Farewell......" Shen Changfeng said to himself in front of the window, his eyes full of affection, but he couldn't penetrate this thin layer of window paper. With a short sigh, he jumped out of the courtyard and disappeared into the night.
