Ah Ji lifted the curtain and entered, "Young Master......"

Her voice was flat in the first word, and startled in the second word. The pen %fun %pavilion www.biquge.info there was surprise and heartache.

"Which one got you wine?"

Her gaze fell on Zhao Mianze's upright figure. The light in the room was dim, the breeze licked the tongue of fire, and a broken cobwebs in the corner of the beam swayed in the wind, but he was still, and the whole person was paved with a stagnant sculpture by the dim light of the fire.

Almost subconsciously, Ah Ji wanted to rush out to settle accounts with Lu Hui.

On the way to Xinjing, Zhao Mianze suffered from some cold, coughed badly, and was clearly taking medicine, but on the low table beside him, there were several pots of famous daughter red, and the red silk seal seemed to be grinning and laughing at her worries.

"Don't blame Lu Hui, it's my order."

Zhao Mianze saw through what she was thinking and explained lightly.

Then he beckoned to her and motioned for her to come over.

Ah Ji walked up to him with a black face as if he had a grudge against those wine jugs, lowered his head, stared at the ground with his eyes firmly on the ground, and said in his mouth: "The young master doesn't know how to cherish himself." Even if the bones of your body are not your own, you have to think about the people who serve you, right? ”

Zhao Mianze looked at the tail of her eyes.

The eyelashes under her eyes seem to be particularly long. The upturned curvature adds a delicate and handsome look to her whole face, and it also gives her a different look from the woman next to her.

Usually in the palace, Zhao Mianze didn't pay much attention to her.

As soon as she was wearing men's clothes, she wore the same forbidden military uniform, and she looked no different from his male guards except for her small size. Second, he has too many things, too many things, and there are so many women in the palace that he can focus on her, too little.

Now he's idle.

I have nothing to do except run for my life, read books, and play chess all day long.

Only then did I find out that she was actually good-looking.

His soft eyes fixed on her fluttering eyelashes.

"Ah Ji, how many years have you been with me?"

Hong Ah Ji was slightly stunned, and came back to his senses from his hatred of wine, probably finding that his previous complaints against him did not take into account each other's identities, and were a little arrogant. Thinking about the meaning of his question, she lowered her head and hung even more, but she said: "Back to the young master, his subordinate Hongtai has entered the East Palace in the twenty-second year, and it has been more than fourteen years......"

Fourteen years......

How many fourteen years does a person's life have?

Zhao Mianze's brows furrowed inadvertently, his eyes crossed her body, looked at the firelight dancing under the lampshade, and watched quietly, wearing a plain white robe, with long hair scattered, except for his innate dignity, every part of his body was lonely.

He said: "Your family originally lived on the bank of the Qinhuai River, right? ”

Hong Aji was stunned again, "Yes, how does the young master know?" ”

Zhao Mianze said lightly, "Your father once said it. ”

Hong Aji thought of secretly following his father to the East Palace to lecture when he was a child, and when he saw the young Zhao Mianze, it was like a world away. Many details, many faces, have been blurred in her mind, only a handsome silhouette reading by the window, deeply in her mind - that was the first time she saw Zhao Mianze.

After thinking for a moment, she smiled: "I didn't expect the young master to have such a good memory." ”

Fourteen years ago, not many people can remember.

Zhao Mianze also smiled, "I was originally a smart person. ”

When he said this, he probably thought of the palace life when he was a child, as well as the dignity and privilege of his eldest grandson when Emperor Hongtai was alive, Zhao Mianze smiled easily, and a few white teeth, under the lamplight, swept a strange glow. Just like the homely way he chatted with her at this time, it made Ah Ji very strange.

After a few years of fugitive life, Zhao Mianze didn't say much.

It's even rarer to talk to her about the past like now.

What's wrong with him today? Was it the queen's birthday that touched his mind?

Hong Aji thought sullenly, and then was relieved. No matter when and where, all Zhao Mianze's joys, angers, sorrows, and joys are actually related to Xia Chu. For example, his greatest pastime is to ponder the chess game that he will never be able to solve, day after day, year after year.

For example, his favorite thing is the mud dolls made by the two Xia Chu.

For example, the one he hung on his waist was the old sachet that Xia Chu gave him at the beginning.

For example, in his purse, there is always an old amulet.

Like what......

"Ah Ji, come and have a few drinks with me."

Zhao Mianze's voice was faint, and there was no emotion at first glance.

But Ah Ji has been with him for too long, but he still hears at least ten thousand tastes from it.

His loneliness, loneliness, and confusion have not changed since the day of the Jinchuanmen Change. The down-and-out king Sun Shang likes to use wine to kill his sorrows, tell old things, and think about the past, not to mention that he is this down-and-out emperor?

Once reigned over the world, once overlooking mountains and rivers, but now it is traveling all over the world, like a lost dog. Such a world-wide gap, but it is difficult for any normal person not to be decadent. But Zhao Mianze has maintained his elegance and nobility for five years.

It was probably his loneliness that infected her.

At this moment, she couldn't say no.

took a pestle and sat on the side of the table in front of him, she poured wine into the bowl sullenly, and said softly: "Young master, be careful, the girl who grew up on the bank of the Qinhuai River is not only good at water, but also has a lot of alcohol." ”

Zhao Mianze was slightly surprised, looked at the girl in front of him with low eyebrows, and his eyes involuntarily fell on her slightly curled eyelashes. Her fluttering eyelashes, compared with her stiff and rigid face, have almost become the most agile part of her whole person.

Pursing his lips, he chuckled.

"Then you and I will have a drink today, look at the Qinhuai River and the East Palace, where the people drink a lot."

If there is no respect and humility in this way, Zhao Mianze does not often say it. The night was always a little different. Ah Ji peeked at him, didn't speak again, only handed him half a bowl of wine that had been poured, and he took a full bowl and drank it all, so proud and refreshing, Zhao Mianze closed his eyes slightly, but he didn't ask, and drank it directly.

"Good wine!"

He smiled and complimented, and coughed again.

"Young master, drink less, coughing." Ah Ji's voice was as muffled as ever, as if he was trying to grab wine from him, he directly ordered the second bowl of wine, deliberately diverting his thoughts of drinking, "When I was a child, my father was an alcoholic, and he often fell drunk under the peach blossom tree in the yard. My father doesn't drink well, but he drinks well, so he laughs with my mother every time. When I was young, I always felt that getting drunk under the peach blossom tree and playing and teasing with those close to me was the most beautiful thing in the world......"

In the flickering firelight, Ah Ji's voice was faint. Sentence by sentence, she was always talking, and Zhao Mianze was listening. Slowly, his gaze drifted a little away, and she said a little dazed. I don't know if it's her past or his......

Ah Ji has been with Zhao Mianze for 14 years and has known him for more than 20 years. From the humid corner of the Qinhuai River, to the bluestone slab stained with the dust of the East Palace, from the smoke and rain in the south to the snow in the north, she is no longer a little girl who has just fallen in love, and he is no longer the eldest grandson of Emperor Dayan......

When she said it, she forgot the original purpose before she drank it - to drink it all so that he would have nothing to drink.

She poured bowl by bowl.

He also drank it elegantly bowl by bowl.

Sure enough, it was Qin Huaihe's daughter who drank well.

Zhao Mianze used to drink alcohol without touching it except when it was necessary, and the amount of alcohol was extremely poor. It's that he doesn't drink as much as Ah Kee, but he pours faster than her. Without eating a few bowls of wine, with a faint smile on the corner of his lips, he did not fall drunk under the peach blossom tree, but fell drunk on his quilt.

Elegant son, the wine is fragrant, and the posture of lying on his side is extremely soulless.

"Young master, young master?"

Ah Kee burped and touched his arm lightly. He didn't react, she probed his forehead, and was about to pull the quilt to cover him, but saw him frowning slightly, opened his eyes as if drunk, and suddenly stared at her and said.

"Ming'er, you leave, don't follow me anymore."

The inexplicable words came suddenly, and Ah Ji didn't understand it.

"Young Master...... Are you drunk? ”

When a person says he's drunk, most of them aren't. But when he said that he was not drunk and was completely fine, he was basically very drunk. Just like Zhao Mianze at this time, his face was drunk with a red color, and he couldn't open his eyelids when he spoke.

"I'm not drunk! Get up tomorrow and don't let me see you again...... Remember to bring some silver taels...... Find a good husband...... Get married. Wait, you'll have to wait until you're an old girl. ”

Ah Ji smiled bitterly and tucked the quilt, "Yes, you also know that I am an old girl, and I can't get married anymore." Where else can I go? The young master wanted to drive me away, but I didn't want to......"

Zhao Mianze seemed to be displeased with her resistance, and waved his hand irritably, but he did drink too much, his eyes were half-closed, and gradually, his breathing was shallow, as if he had fallen asleep, and there was no sound.

In the palace, Ah Ji rarely watched him sleep so closely.

When she left the palace, she didn't know what to take into account, and Zhao Mianze didn't allow her to wait for her to go to bed.

Now, when he's drunk, he's the only chance?

Ah Ji was actually a little drunk, his brain was in chaos, he looked down at Zhao Mianze who was groggy on the couch, rubbed his hot face, and felt more and more that he was handsome and beautiful. She thought: A man like him should be born with dignity and dignity and dwell above the temple, right? But the world made people, but he could only sleep in front of her, sleeping on such a simple couch, she suddenly felt that such a situation was a blasphemy for Zhao Mianze.

“…… What shall I do to you? ”

She whispered, her tone full of helplessness.

If she could, she would exchange her all for his honor as yesterday, instead of running away. But she is not only a woman, but also an ordinary woman, and she does not have the ability to turn the clouds and rain like Xia Chu, and she can't even help him fulfill his wish and go to the imperial city to see his beloved woman.

With a stagnant face, Ah Ji's mood has never been so discouraged for a moment.

"Master, it's me who is too incompetent...... Too incompetent......"

She lowered her hand, sighed, and turned to retreat, but she felt that her legs and feet were weak, and the wine seemed to be on her head. She frowned, sat softly on the edge of the couch, smelled the wine on the cuffs, and then looked at the man asleep on the couch, with heroic eyebrows and slightly curved lips, and a strong desire suddenly rose in her heart.

Thirty years old, she is indeed an old girl.

But she had never been close to any man, nor had she ever had such a strong thought.

She wanted to kiss him on the lips.

He's asleep anyway, and won't know. She kissed it.

Slowly, she stood up, bowing her head little by little, her movements wandering, but the goal was clear.

In addition to the smell of wine, there is also a faint elegance of a man on his body, she can't tell what it smells like, but in the past, she has to retreat when she smells like this. Finally, she could get so close.

She felt like she was drunk too.

The dragonfly touched the water, and with just one touch, she left.

His lips were soft, clean, and crisp with a booque.

Man is greedy. Once, she felt that it was not enough.

Looking at his closed eyes, she closed them and touched them again.

This time, Zhao Mianze rolled over, her lips brushing his cheeks.

She was startled, her heart clenched with nervousness, and she turned to run away.

“…… Change my clothes. Zhao Mianze seemed to be drunk and confused, and didn't know who she was, she called in a low voice, her voice was hoarse with drunkenness, and her heart skipped a beat, and the ghost stopped her steps and turned her head.

On the couch, his eyes were still closed, and he didn't wake up.

Ah Ji wiped his mouth with the back of his hand, thinking of the kiss just now, his thoughts were already surging.

It is said that "wine is strong and intimidating", if she didn't drink, she wouldn't dare to borrow her twenty bear galls to take Zhao Mianze lightly, but this time is different, her blood is boiling, the tip of her heart is tight, and every cell in her body is shouting.

He's drunk, and no matter what she does, he won't know.

And if he wakes up tomorrow and insists on driving her away, will she stay?

Zhao Mianze is a gentle person, but the imperial spirit still exists, and he has never been the same.

She hardly dared to imagine how she would spend her days after she did leave him. It will become a habit for a person to serve someone, it will become a habit for a person to respect another person, and it will certainly be a habit for a person to like another person. Zhao Mianze is Hong Aji's habit.

With trembling hands, she reached for his neckline.

His loose mid-coat faded.

Her hand reached for his waist, trembling even more.

She thought: If she had become one of his men, would he have driven her away?

Except for his own clothes, Hong Ah Kee has never taken off other people's, let alone men's clothes. Although Zhao Mianze was not dressed complicated, she felt that the task of undressing was more difficult than asking her to kill someone.

Her hands trembled so hard that she could hold a sword, but not a piece of clothing.

When the last of his little coats slid from her hands to the footrests, she finally stripped him clean.

This is the man she sees as god-like as an offense.

But she actually took him ...... Stripped naked.

When people do something risky, their nerves become extremely excited. Hong Aji is like this at this moment, her eyes are glazed, her cheeks are red, her mind is confused, and her heart is beating fast, as if she is doing something extremely evil, she quickly and accurately climbed onto the couch, lay down beside Zhao Mianze, and pulled the quilt to wrap the two of them tightly.

In the quilt, she took off herself one by one.

What's next? Her mind seemed to be no longer her own, blank.

In a trance, she thought, just do nothing, so that he can't let her go until tomorrow morning, right? …… If Lu Hui and the others were allowed to come in and see it now, he wouldn't have any reason to drive her again, right? There was a lot of thought in her head, and her thinking was not clear.

I guess I was really drunk. Thinking like this, she had a reason.

And after doing the first year of junior high school, I am not afraid to do fifteen.

Hengzhu has already gone up the mountain, and she is not afraid of fighting tigers.

The transgression has been done, and doing more and doing less will result in the same. Unafraid! She comforted herself, gently lifted the quilt, and aimed at Zhao Mianze's honey-white but sturdy body, which was a sense of strength completely different from that of a woman...... He looked thin, but he didn't expect the skeleton to be so powerful. She blushed and stroked her hand. From his face, neck, shoulders, slowly whisked ...... Her mouth also leaned in.

Die and die.

Close your eyes and kiss him, that's what she thought.

But the imaginable softness was not touched, and his breath fell abruptly on her face, and the voice with the smell of alcohol was drunk, but seductively drunk.

“…… Ah Kee, don't make trouble. ”

Her name came out of his mouth, and Ah Ji was slightly surprised.

Was he drunk or not? He even knew it was her?

"Young master......" she whispered again.

He said "um" and answered, but didn't open his eyes.

Ah Ji was hot all over, and his heartbeat was almost at its limit.

She suddenly understood what he meant by leaving her a small life, finding her a staircase to get out of here? The light master was arrested, this embarrassment made her no longer have the courage to commit a crime, no matter what she thought and did before, she just wanted to find a crack drill now, or simply wipe her neck and commit suicide.

She involuntarily moved her body out, trying to get dressed and leave.

But when he turned sideways, he was hugged from behind by a pair of strong hands.

Ah Ji froze there, motionless, and the clothes in his hands could no longer be put on his body.

"Young Master......?"

He didn't answer, he didn't open his eyes, or rather, he didn't wake up at all, but just relied on manly instinct to hug her and turn around. He was above, she was below, his face was amazingly hot, buried in her neck, and his breathing, like a boiling fire, burned her consciousness, just like his voice, lingering and intoxicating.

"Don't go."

"Young master......" Ah Ji sighed lightly, like a rabbit in his arms, jumping very hard. She wanted to turn over, but he grabbed her hand and held him down, not letting her move, and he didn't say anything, just kisses as hot as a soldering iron.

"Why?"

She seemed to hear herself ask.

It was a stupid question, she asked, but she couldn't get an answer.

It was also on this day that she learned that men and women were actually different. They could be in love with another woman in their hearts, but that didn't prevent him from finding a moment of pleasure in her.

At that particular moment, she saw his frowning brows, and his eyes that opened and closed in an instant.

She knew that he was awake, but he didn't stop, he didn't speak, and he didn't ask her for anything, in this small village on the outskirts of Xinjing, in a strange silence, he gasped for heavy breath to complete her first experience of life.

Sweating like rain, it is finally calm.

Ah Ji opened his eyes with a red face and met his dark eyes.

"Ah Kee." Zhao Mianze didn't go to get dressed, nor did he pull the quilt, there was still residual sweat on his forehead, his expression was also very calm, he looked at her shy eyes, his eyebrows were tightly locked, "I can't give you anything." ”

"Huh?" Ah Ji hasn't recovered from the afterglow yet.

Zhao Mianze didn't explain, just stared at her without blinking.

She realized. He's probably referring to the status that women value, right? Today's Zhao Mianze really can't give her anything, not even a stable environment. But as she replied to Xia Chu many years ago - Zi Fei Fish, how do you know the joy of fish? What a person wants and what he doesn't want, others can never understand it except herself.

Biting her lower lip, she shook her head, "I just have to follow you." ”

Silence, eyes facing each other.

He was silent, silent for a long time, stroked her hair, and said in a dumb voice, "You are so stupid." ”

"I'm willing." She raised her lips and smiled like a flower.

That night, the atmosphere in Peiping Mansion was tense and depressing, and the officers and soldiers were investigating and searching everywhere, but the fire of this mountain village farmhouse on the outskirts of the city was lit until dawn. In the second half of the night, they communicated with candles, but they had nothing to do with love. Things between men and women, many times, are just lonely and glued, satisfying each other, and not lusting for love. For Ah Ji, on this day, she never thought that she had only wanted to be quietly by his side and watch him rise to sunset, so she thanked God for the beautiful gift to her.

He was welcoming.

Ah Ji silently calculated, for more than five years, he had not been close to a woman. At this moment, she could feel his intoxication and his concentration with a woman's instinct. This intoxication is caused by her, and concentration is also used by her. In this way, even if there is only a moment of pleasure, it is enough.

The past and present are very beautiful, why bother asking how the Ming Dynasty is?

When it was almost dawn, Ah Ji blushed and wanted to get up and leave.

He hugged her waist tightly, "Sleep a little longer." ”

This embrace was too warm, and she was reluctant to leave, so she was ashamed to lie back in his arms, pillowed his arm, and whispered in a small voice, with a woman's rhyme and hesitation afterwards, "I'm afraid...... Lu Hui they found. ”

Zhao Mianze coughed, smiled and tightened his arms around her waist, took her into his arms, moved to a more comfortable position, and responded softly, "Just such a big movement, don't you think they can't hear it?" ”

Ah Ji's head slammed, and he climbed on him helplessly, but he was speechless.

The absurdity of the whole night, how could they not hear Lu Hui?

Just as she used to be in the palace, she also spent the night for Zhao Mianze...... At that time, she could only stand far away, kissing him and his concubines in the boudoir pleasure in the room, she knew it clearly, but her heart was already numb.

"Don't be nervous, you should do what you shouldn't do."

As if he was afraid of embarrassing her, he smiled again, "Tomorrow I will tell them that I was drunk and immoral and offended you." ”

Ah Ji's heart warmed, "Thank you, young master." ”

A man like him is really gentle and benevolent...... This is the essence of Him. In Ah Ji's heart, he has never been bad, and even he can do things that men in the world can't do for the woman he likes. If there is anything wrong with him, it is that he did not fall in love with Xia Chu when he should have fallen in love with her, but he believed Xia Wenqiu easily. When he shouldn't have fallen in love with Xia Chu, he was so powerless to extricate himself.

"What are you thinking?" Zhao Mianze's hand ran lightly over her hair, but he didn't wait for her to answer after asking, so he said to himself, "Let's sleep for a while, I have to leave tomorrow, how can I live if I don't have enough physical strength?" ”

Ah Ji raised his head suddenly, his eyes were surprised, "Young Master, have you thought about it?" ”

Zhao Mianze smiled on his lips, and his voice was subtle, "Hmm." ”

Such a gentle and considerate him was something Ah Ji had never felt, she almost looked at him greedily, looked at his deep eyes, forgot what she wanted to say, and only said softly like a dream, "Young man, it's good to be your woman." ”

Zhao Mianze smiled slightly and hugged her tighter, "Sleep." ”

"Oh." She obediently closed her eyes, and didn't ask him why he suddenly figured it out, willing to leave Xinjing "tomorrow", no longer do that risky thing, and didn't ask him again to go all the way to Beijing, but he couldn't see Xia Chu, do you have regrets in your heart? At this moment, she closed her eyes contentedly, lay in his arms, and slept for the first time in five years.

"You're so stupid."

Zhao Mianze's whispering, lingering above her head with her breathing, was like a lullaby, blurred in her sleep......

By the time she woke up, it was nearly noon.

When I opened my eyes, the stone blue tent was as familiar as a beautiful dream.

The events of last night came to her mind, and she subconsciously leaned to her side.

It's empty, it's cold, and there's no one left.

She was slightly startled and sat up nervously, "Young Master? ”

No one answered, and a bad premonition flooded her mind, and she got dressed and got out of the house. The mountain village is still the same mountain village, the clear blue sky is as distant and ethereal as usual, but not only is there no Zhao Mianze in the farmhouse, but even Lu Hui and they are gone.

The one who looked at her approaching with a smile was a middle-aged village woman.

She carried a large burden in her hand, called "girl", and then enthusiastically stuffed it into her hand, and whispered, "The horses are all fed, and they are tied to the willow tree at the door...... The young master said not to call you, let you wake up......"

Ah Ji looked at the village woman with her mouth closed one by one dream.

It's not clear, but it's all understood.

Zhao Mianze led Lu Hui and them away, leaving her alone. It turned out that the person he said last night that he was going to "set off" was not him, but her...... After all, he drove her away. Even if they shared the same bed last night, he didn't think about her, not only could he not give her a name, but he even deprived her of the opportunity to serve her closely.

A beautiful night, the end is a dream.

She grinned bitterly and opened the heavy package.

There was gold and silver in it, but there was not a word.

He didn't explain, not a word of explanation.

Sure enough, his heart belonged to Xia Chu alone.

For other women, he was never intentional.

While thinking about it, there was a sound of footsteps outside, she nervously collected her mood, brushed her hair, tied the package on her back and turned over on her horse, and was about to leave, but saw a strong black man running over.

"Mother! I am back! ”

The man seemed to be the son of the village woman, and he had not seen him for three days. Looking at it this way, the clothes on his body turned out to be the forbidden army clothes of the imperial city. Startled, she turned sideways and threw her hand at the village woman, and rode away.

Behind, the voices of men and village women were faintly heard-

"Mother, are you okay these days? My son misses you. ”

The village woman smiled between her eyebrows and eyes, and took her son's hand to ask for warmth, "Okay, mother." Pillar, why did you come back today, are you okay? ”

The man's voice was smiling, "Today's double happiness is coming, the head gives me a half-day rest, and I came back to see my mother." ”

The village woman also laughed, "How can you be happy?" ”

The man said: "One is happy for Niangniang's birthday, and the second is happy, how many people have been arrested by the forbidden army today...... Let's say, it's very likely...... Emperor Jianzhang ......"

Ah Kee's whipping hand paused in mid-air and slowly drooped.

And sure enough, he went......

And go so thoroughly, what should she do?
