Chapter Eighty-Four: Above the Tower
For several days after this day, Lu Xiaohan felt a little hatred in her heart, and when she thought of Yu Yuchengxin peeking at her bath, and spending the whole night with her naked self, and when she went to look for him, but he squatted in front of other women to flatter, her whole heart ached. On this day, in order to be out of sight and out of mind, she simply slipped out of the house early in the morning, and she didn't even inform Lan'er, only planning to temporarily get away from this place of right and wrong and completely distract herself.
When I went out, the sky was not completely bright, the streets were closed, and I couldn't see a few people, which was far from the scene of the prosperous royal city on weekdays. A gust of wind swept over a few fallen leaves on the road, which even made Lu Xiaohan feel a little desolate.
She wandered around the streets and alleys, and she didn't know how long she walked until she reached the city gate. At this time, the sky had already opened, and his vision was much clearer, Xiao Han saw a figure standing on the city wall, the figure was completely different from the guard beside him, and his figure was very slender, like a woman. When she looked at it again, it turned out to be a familiar face, and when she looked at each other, the man seemed to recognize herself, and then turned around and went down the tower.
"Don't come unharmed, Miss Wu." Xiao Han stepped forward with a smile, "This uniform is really not lost to the soldiers." ”
Wu Yuejun raised the corners of his mouth: "I was originally a soldier. Princess, why did you get here so early in the morning? ”
"I ...... Morning exercise. She shook her arms and pretended to be careless, and said to him, "Eh, you don't really work in the barracks, do you?" Dressed like this, standing on the city wall at this time, it doesn't look like you're here to play! ”
Wu Yuejun stood still, clasped his hands into fists and bowed to her: "Wu Yuejun, the commander of the Dongcheng Army, pays a visit to the princess." ”
"Dongcheng Army? Manager? Xiao Han was taken aback, she didn't expect her to be this kind of identity, the Dongcheng Army is a Praetorian Guard in the royal capital, only more than 10,000 people, although it is not comparable to the vast army of the emperor and the king of Yu in terms of quantity, but in terms of the army, it is an outstanding team, not only responsible for the most important eastern exit of the city, but also responsible for the important task of guarding the palace.
"Y-How can you be the commander of the Dongcheng Army?"
"When the current saint ascended the throne, the Dongcheng army resisted a lot, but it was also loyal, so the emperor replaced the previous commander and reselected me."
"But you're a woman!"
"What about women?" Wu Yuejun raised his chin and looked unruly, "Niangniang, would you like to follow me to the city tower for a walk?" ”
"Why?" Xiao Han gathered his shawl, "The cold wind is swishing, go up and suffer this sin!" ”
"I promise that after the mother goes up, there will be an unexpected harvest." Miss Wu said confidently, although Xiao Han knew that she was playing tricks, she was still attracted, and she climbed up suspiciously.
"What are you going to show me?"
There was nothing on the city wall except for the two rows of soldiers standing on the edge of the road. Xiao Han was about to have a seizure, when she saw Wu Yuejun nodding to the side, and following her gaze, there was a boundless cityscape.
At this time, the morning sun is rising, the sky is dyed with a layer of fiery red, and under the morning glow, is the capital that has just woken up from sleep. Standing at the highest point in the city, even the tallest 'Moon Pavilion' in the city has become short and small, at this moment, Xiao Han really experienced the feeling of "overlooking", which is extremely spectacular and extremely shocking.
"If a man can stand on a special high place, then both men and women can see the world at a glance, and this is not the exclusive property of men. From ancient times to the present, women just lack a chance to climb up, and when they really stand on the top, we, and them, are no different. Wu Yuejun looked at a certain rooftop in the distance, looking fascinated, "Look, looking from here, won't you be fascinated by the country?" Do you ...... Aren't you tempted by the world? ”
