Chapter 154: Trapped in the World

Time flies, and the hot summer lasts until the end of August, and as we enter September, the temperature plummets and the night winds start to chill.

The queen carved the front and back of a piece of wood and prayed a hundred times a day for the national teacher Ernar to return safely.

Waited and waited, and it had been ten months since he left, and he had not returned.

"Brother Chengyin, did you say he didn't want to come back?" The queen sorted out the wooden chips on a table, and was listless: "Maybe the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty gave him a high-ranking official Houlu, or a treasure and beauty, and he forgot to return home." ”

Cheng Yin smiled and comforted: "No, there is only one beauty in E'er's heart." ”

"Who?" Hearing this, the queen stopped what she was doing, grabbed a handful of wooden chips, and asked in surprise, "How did I not know that he had a beauty?" ”

Cheng Yin didn't say anything, just smiled: "Well, you can ask him." ”

The queen wrinkled her nose in dissatisfaction, "Men love to pretend to be ghosts!" ”

"How well do you know men? Just comment on men? Chengyin helped her put all the wood chips into the bag, and said, "These things, when Annar comes back, you can hand them over to him, he must be very happy." ”

"Some rotten wood chips, what's so fun about it?" The queen pursed her lips and continued to clean up disapprovingly.

Cheng Yin stopped what he was doing, squinted his eyes and looked at her quietly, soon, soon, the day of their parting was coming. Read > novel ybdu

The queen also seemed to sense the change in Chengyin's mentality, and he became a little silent, many times, encouraging the queen to make her own judgment and occasionally give a little advice, but most of the time, she was silent.

When the first autumn wind started, the outpost came quickly, and the mission of the national division had already returned to the outpost.

The queen was overjoyed and urged them to return to the city overnight.

Cheng Yin persuaded: "The national teacher, they must be back in a hurry, and finally arrived at the outpost, let them rest for a while, they will come back tomorrow, don't worry." ”

When the queen saw Chengyin speak, she pressed her temperament and decided to stay one more night.

At night, she tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, and asked, "Did you say that Ernar has changed?" Gained weight or thinness? Datang should have a lot of delicious food, he must be fat...... But if you are in a hurry to eat and sleep in the open, will you lose weight again? ”

"I'll know if I see you tomorrow."

“…… Eh, Brother Chengyin, you say, did the Tang Emperor give him a beautiful woman? ”

“……”

"Or, did he see a lot of beauties in Chang'an?"

"You've got too many questions, sleep."

The queen saw that Chengyin closed her eyes and didn't want to pay attention to herself, so she also pouted and closed her eyes.

Chengyin didn't sleep at all, he waited for the breathing in his arms to become soft and steady, and then opened his eyes gently.

He looked down at the person in his arms, sighed softly, and in the middle of the night, he got up and dressed.

Standing on the edge of the bed, looking down at her curled up in the quilt, Chengyin reached out and gently stroked her cheek with the back of his hand, and leaned over to drop a kiss on her forehead.

A cool breeze slipped in through the lifted curtains.

Outside the door, Tumor was dozing off against the wall, and Cheng Yin patted him and made a silent gesture.

"I'll head to the outpost now, I should be able to get there before daylight, and when the queen gets up, you can let her freshen up and open the barrier." Cheng Yin fastened his cloak and turned around to go out after giving the order.

He usually walked freely in the palace and in the country, and the guards never stopped him, and where he walked, the guards saluted him all the way, and rode to the arrow tower at the col, and the guards saw that it was him, and knew that he was going to meet the national teacher, so they opened the fence.

A hundred miles away, Chengyin's horses have run very skillfully, and they can accurately identify the direction in the dark night, and when the sky is slightly bright, they have arrived at the outpost.

To his surprise, the national teacher leaned on the flagpole at the gate of the outpost, waiting for him.

"I thought you'd come sooner." The national teacher said lightly.

After nearly a year of traveling, he has become lean and weathered, with a slight circle of stubble on his chin, and he looks more mature.

"Well, coax her to sleep, delay a little time." Cheng Yin turned over and dismounted, and walked in front of the national teacher, "What about the edict of the Tang Dynasty?" ”

The national teacher took out a bright yellow holy decree wrapped in leather from the placket on his chest, as well as a small piece of jade seal.

"The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty is very happy, and he also asks about your situation, and asks you to return to Chang'an as soon as the holy decree arrives." He said.

Chengyin smiled and said, "It's time to go back, it's been so long...... you've been out."

"You said goodbye to her?"

Chengyin shook his head and said, "No, just leave like this, I don't want to see her cry, this, help me give it to her." ”

He took out a letter from his bosom, and a small flower that was white on the inside and red on the outside, and the flower had dried up and could only be used as a letterhead.

"She wants red flowers, I'll figure it out." Cheng Yin said with a smile.

“…… She wants you to be with her more than flowers. The national teacher shook his head and said, "Although I don't want her to love you, I don't want you to leave either, will you come back?" ”

“…… Yes, it depends on the situation, after all, I still have parents, and I have been away from home for many years, and I am already very unfilial. Chengyin paused and said, "Don't let her know that I will come back, the road ahead is boundless, and no one knows what the future will bring, so don't let her have empty hope." ”

He looked at the national teacher and said softly: "The Great Khan of the West covets her, you should be more careful, if you need help, go to Yumen Pass to find a guard, I will send someone to stay in Yumen Pass to deliver the news." ”

The national teacher put his letter and the holy decree in his arms, looked up and asked, "Are you really willing to give her up?" Or do you remember the woman in Chang'an? As far as I know, your parents dismissed your concubine, and only your wife remains. ”

Cheng Yin smiled bitterly: "I've almost forgotten what she looks like...... I'm not a good couple, and you're better suited to her than I am...... Over the years, your thoughts, words and deeds have grown rapidly, even if I am not there, you will be more than enough to govern here, protect her well, if you ......"

He took a deep breath and sighed, "If in the future, she gives birth to an heir and the country has something to rely on, take her out for a walk...... If I am still here, I will meet you at Yumen Pass. ”

The national teacher smiled and did not answer.

If her love can be compromised and transferred to others, then it is not called love.

I can't ask for it, it's the most bitter.

As soon as you leave, her heart is no longer here.

With a long way to go and a long way to go, who knows what the next sunrise will look like?

As the sun rose, the direction of the sand flow inside the outpost quietly changed.

"The barrier opened...... That's it, don't get by. Cheng Yin smiled, looked back at the mountain in the distance, and turned over on his horse.

The national teacher walked a few steps and said loudly: "She loves you!" ”

Cheng Yin reined in his horse and turned back.

"If one day, she says that she doesn't love you anymore, then I will marry her, if she has always loved you, then I will guard her, no matter how many years, I hope you can come here again, come here again to see her!"

Cheng Yin's eyes were a little sour, the man didn't flick his tears, he turned around and took a deep breath, and said with a smile: "You are a good man, Erner, I admire you." ”

“…… You taught me! Although I have never respected you as a teacher, I ...... Thank you again. Ernar bowed.

Chengyin didn't look back, and replied lightly, "No thanks, I'm for her." ”

He rode his horse and trotted all the way out of the outpost, and Ernar looked at his back and sighed, "...... I'm also for her. ”

……

Cheng Yin rode his horse for a long time, until the sun set in the west, and then he reined in the horse at a mountain pass.

He remembered here.

Eight years ago, when he came here with a caravan of only a few people from the Jade Fuling Kingdom, he passed through this mountain pass.

At that time, the sky was full of frost.

At this time, when I turned around, there was only a slanting sun.

Leaving silently, avoiding the pain of separation and soft-heartedness, if there is a future, if there is a future......

If there is a future, I will give her the flowers she wants and the company she wants.

It's a pity that the end of the world is far away, and what fate is, it's really unpredictable.

Cheng Yin looked back in the direction of the Jade Fuling Kingdom, and suddenly found that a horse was chasing from the foot of the mountain over there.

When he saw the clothes of the comer, he reined in his horse and waited for him.

Tomor's robe scimitar, carrying a burden, carrying Chengyin's sword in the baggage, chased after him non-stop.

"Mr. Chengyin, this is what the queen wants me to give you." Panting, he handed over the burden on his back.

Cheng Yin squinted at him, he scratched his head, and said a little uneasily: "I think there is something wrong with you, usually, even if you get up and leave first, you will tell me to be optimistic about Your Majesty, but if you don't have it today, I think you have something on your mind...... As soon as she told the queen, she sent her guards to the outpost at once...... That's when you know you're gone. ”

"The queen asked me to catch up, and she said, it's too late to fix the book, only one sentence for you."

"Your kindness, if you don't have the chance to repay it in this life, you can live in the next life, may you cherish it, cherish it!"

As he spoke, he took out a piece of broken jade from his arms.

Cheng Yin took it, spread it in the palm of his hand, and looked at the broken jade in a daze.

It used to hang under the queen's head, a gentle jade, a gentle person, a jade-like skin exposed from the snow-white fur, closed his eyes and stretched out his hand, and called: "Brother Chengyin......"

She broke the jade.

Does it symbolize her feelings? Would you rather be a broken jade, and this life will not be swerving?

Cheng Yin clenched the piece of jade in his palm, closed his eyes and felt the warmth in his palm.

It was as if caressing her cheek.

“…… Will you ever come back, sir? Tomor's eyes reddened.

"If fate is not over, I will come, and you can also help me tell the queen, cherish, let her remember what I said in her heart, and pay attention to her own safety......" Chengyin muttered.

The mountain behind him is getting farther and farther away, but the person in his heart is getting heavier and heavier.

Sometimes, parting may be able to see his heart more clearly, Chengyin covered the half of the jade huang in his heart, like holding a handful of tears.

Read all the Chang'an flowers in one day.

Once guarded the end of the world for love.

An inch of acacia with the wind and sand.

I will love him all my life.
