Chapter 126: No Return
But in this state, Wen Ge didn't dare to suggest to Xie Jing that he should just take care of his injuries in the capital, why bother to come all the way to this Xun Mountain? Wen Ge has been by Xie Jing's side for so many years, and naturally he has long known that the road of fighting for reunification has been a road of no return from the beginning.
"Your Highness, drink some water."
"Hmm."
But unlike Wenge's worries, I couldn't see Xie Jing's worries at all now, but on Xie Jing's face, there was no other expression at this time except for a gentle smile as before.
But Xie Jing, who was seriously injured and had not healed, seemed to have nothing to do, but at this time, Emperor Zhou Hui was already physically exhausted, after the group rested for a while, Emperor Zhou Hui still decided to rest in place first, and the others began to hunt independently, as for Emperor Zhou Huidi's decision to hunt a prey first and then rest, it seems that it is also going to be changed now, but this is a good thing for Xie Jing, after all, without the constraints of Emperor Zhou Huidi's presence, then Xie Jing and they can find a place to rest in the forest, Wait for noon to come.
So in this way, under the order of Emperor Zhou Hui, except for most of the Praetorian Guards under the leadership of Liang Yi, the governor of the capital, who stayed behind to protect Emperor Zhou Hui, the rest of the people were scattered from here, or began to hunt prey in groups of threes and threes. It wasn't until the time to go back, after noon, that everyone returned to the place where Emperor Zhou Hui was, and then returned to the other palace together.
And among these people who have returned, Xie Jing is obviously much, much better than just now, it seems that Xie Jing has been resting since he found a place just now. Otherwise, how could he only bring back two geese, not to mention, and his face was much better, and this also made Xie Wen on the side smile slightly. It's just that there is a lack of warmth in his smile.
Bessy
Before noon, almost all of the palaces were very quiet, and most of the ministers and ladies who were left behind were almost all resting in their respective courtyards at this time, so in this huge palace, it was very quiet at this time. And this quietness. It's the same in the courtyard of the Chu Palace, since Xu Youshan and the four of them took a rest, this courtyard has been very quiet. Until a few moments before noon, when the entire palace was lively, the Chu Wangfu was the same.
After Wan'er and Chu Dai woke up Xu Yourong and Xu Youshan. They hurried to freshen up and change their clothes. Then after everything was ready, they took a soft sedan chair together, arrived outside the entrance of Xun Mountain, and waited for the return of Emperor Zhou Hui with everyone.
And just when people waited and waited, at about a quarter of noon, there was finally a burst of horses' hooves from Xun Mountain, and then Xu Youshan and they saw that under the service of the upright and lofty Praetorian Guard, Emperor Zhou Hui rode his peerless sweat and blood horse. The first to drive in the front, let people look at it at a glance. I really feel that Emperor Zhou Hui's instruments are very extraordinary.
But it is also a glance, because then, people's eyes will immediately be taken away by Xie Jing and the three behind Emperor Zhou Hui, and although Xu Youshan and they absolutely dare not compliment the second prince Xie Yan and the third prince Xie Wen, but if you only talk about appearance, Xu Youshan and the four of them still have to admit that they are really rich and handsome, especially Xie Jing, his appearance that can almost be described as a stunning alluring city, Xu Youshan is the one who knows it all.
It's just that for Xu Youshan, Xie Jing's stunning appearance is particularly lethal to her, but not necessarily for others, such as Xu Yourong, when people must have followed Emperor Zhou Hui at first glance, and were attracted by the three princes of Xie Jing, Xie Yan and Xie Wen, Xu Yourong was the first to see, but he was always the person next to Liang Yi, the governor of the Praetorian Guard, Nie Suhyun!
Even if Xu Yourong no longer deliberately looks for Nie Suhyun's figure now, as long as Nie Suhyun is there, Xu Yourong can always see him at first sight, whether she is willing or not, and whether she wants to or not, this seems to be engraved into her bones and only has a special ability that Nie Suhyun has, but it always makes Xu Yourong see him at a glance among so many people; And such a special ability also makes the current Xu Yourong a little more sad.
"Big Sister ......"
And Xu Yourong's sadness, when Xu Youshan turned her eyes to look at her, she knew what was going on, Nie Suhyun is now a lieutenant of the Praetorian Guard, and it is the time to get Emperor Zhou Hui's weapon, so how could Emperor Zhou Hui's hunting trip to Xunshan not take Nie Suhyun with him? Therefore, Xu Yourong and Nie Suhyun must meet, especially under Xu Yourong's "clairvoyance" for Nie Suhyun, how could she not see him.
But this was Xu Youshan's "clairvoyance" used by Xu Youshan and them to make fun of Xu Yourong in previous years, but now it has become a place for them to worry about Xu Yourong, and at this time, when Xu Youshan saw that Xu Yourong was fine, but when she saw Zhou Huidi and his party coming back, she quickly had a sad expression, Xu Youshan knew that Xu Yourong must have seen Nie Suhyun.
"I'm fine." Facing Xu Youshan's worried eyes, Xu Yourong said to her with a smile: "This is all necessary, after surviving this period of time, it will be fine, Sister Shan, you don't have to worry, really, when this most difficult time passes, I will be fine." Xu Yourong said with certainty, but Xu Youshan understands, and Xu Yourong herself understands, her words are not only for Xu Youshan, but also for herself.
Because in fact, Xu Yourong herself knows best, how much she likes Nie Suhyun, how far she likes him, and what kind of state she is attached to him, and how long should it take to forget him? Xu Yourong has no confidence, and he doesn't want to know, let alone know.
"Well, that's right, eldest sister, as long as this time passes, everything will be fine, it will be fine."
Xu Youshan said categorically, which made Xu Yourong stunned and looked at her blankly, but Xu Youshan continued to Xu Yourong: "Eldest sister, you are right, there is nothing that you can't get through. After the time passes, everything will be fine, big sister. You are really smart. ”
Time is a butcher's knife, it will make everything in the world disappear with it, and all the beautiful and hot things that were once in the past will be burned with the passage of time, becoming the past that people have been clinging to in their memories. It's just that time is cruel, but it's also gentle. Because not only will those beautiful and blazing heat disappear in the river of time, but the pain that people once seemed to hurt to the bone marrow will also be erased by time. Years later, when people look back, everything is just the word "past".
Therefore, although the last thing Xu Youshan wants to see is that Xu Yourong is sad, in her opinion. She also thinks the same as Xu Mingcheng and Xu Mingwen. It is impossible for Xu Yourong and Nie Suhyun to have results, so even if Xu Youshan looked at Xu Yourong at this time and felt distressed, she still supported Xu Yourong's decision.
Therefore, Xu Youshan believes that Xu Yourong will definitely get better, and without Nie Suhyun, Xu Yourong, who no longer has Nie Suhyun as the center of the world, will definitely get better. And she will eventually know that there is no Nie Suhyun. The sun is still the same, there is no sunrise and sunset, and the moon is still the same.
……
……
On the second day of the hunting in Xunshan, people's interest was particularly high, perhaps because of the fact that several people led by the third prince Xie Wen this morning hunted a lot of prey, among which Xie Wen even caught a tiger cub and a rare white fox, and dedicated them to Emperor Zhou Hui and Concubine Xian, so that Concubine Xian Niangniang was very happy on the spot, and praised Xie Wen for how filial piety and how heroic he was.
And when Emperor Zhou Hui saw that among the prey hunted by everyone today, it was Xie Wen's prey that was the rarest, and he also praised Xie Wen fiercely, and even the ministers were competing to pat Xie Wen's ass, so that for a while, Xie Wen could be said to have taken up the scenery.
And it is also because Emperor Zhou Hui and Concubine Xian are in a good mood that everyone at the banquet tonight is also in high spirits, so the entire banquet can be said to be almost full of laughter, and of course this also includes Xu Youshan, but Xu Youshan's face is indeed smiling, but in the bottom of her heart, Xu Youshan is not like this, in fact, she is very worried now, she simply can't wait for Emperor Zhou Hui and Concubine Xian to leave the table quickly, so that she can go to Xu's house to see how Xu Yourong is doing.
It's just that it's not a coincidence, Emperor Zhou Hui seems to be very happy tonight, but now, there is no preparation to leave the table, so Xu Youshan can only frequently move his eyes to the Xu family, but everyone in the Xu family is a little far away from Xu Youshan's side, no matter how hard Xu Youshan looks, in fact, he still can't see anything clearly.
But Xu Youshan couldn't see anything clearly, but Xie Jing could see it clearly, and when Xu Youshan looked at the Xu family for the umpteenth time that she thought she had covered it well, Xie Jing approached Xu Youshan with an intimate look and asked lightly, "What are you looking at?" ”
Xie Jing's sudden approach, the frightened Xu Youshan immediately froze on the spot, and her mind immediately stopped spinning, so after Xie Jing asked again, Xu Youshan came back to her senses, and quietly moved back, "It's nothing, it's just that the sisters made a little awkward during the day, so I'm a little worried now." Xu Youshan said with a dry smile, and what she said was also true, Xu Yourong and Xu Mingcheng did have a little awkward quarrel during the day, so what Xu Youshan said was not very weak-hearted.
But after Xu Youshan finished speaking, Xie Jing just glanced at her and sat back, but in his eyes just now, it was full of three words "you are lying", which made Xu Youshan suddenly feel very empty, but fortunately, although Xie Jing saw that Xu Youshan was lying, he didn't ask again, which made Xu Youshan still breathe a sigh of relief.
And after Nie Suhyun let Xu Youshan go, Xu Youshan's spirit drifted back to the Xu family, but when Xu Youshan now thinks about what happened during the day, she still feels very speechless.
Originally, at noon, when Emperor Zhou Hui and his entourage had already left Xun Mountain and returned to the foot of the mountain, although Xu Yourong was a little discouraged because he saw Nie Suhyun, but fortunately, Xu Mingcheng, Xu Youshan and Xu Mingwen accompanied her, so even if Xu Yourong was depressed, she would always be laughed at by the other three, so that she could not continue to be depressed. But when everything was fine, a soft female voice suddenly remembered next to him broke all this.
"Miss Xu?"
At that time, Xu Yourong immediately stiffened when he heard this voice, and Xu Youshan and the others were a little surprised to see Xu Yourong so abnormal, so except for Xu Yourong, the other three turned their heads quickly, and when they all saw who the owner of the voice was, the three of them, like Xu Yourong, immediately froze in place.
And who is this person, who can have such a great ability, just one sentence made Xu Youshan and the four of them freeze on the spot? - Nie Yufu.
Xu Youshan didn't expect that Nie Yufu would appear in front of them, although Xie Jing told her not long ago that Miss Cousin of the Nie family of the Zhenguo Mansion had come to look for her, but at that time, Xu Youshan was diverted from all her attention by other messy things that could affect her even more, so the fact that the great Miss Cousin of the Nie family of the Zhenguo Mansion came to her was naturally thrown out of the clouds by Xu Youshan, where would she remember? But it was such an oversight that Xu Youshan despised herself at that time.
It's just that compared to the worries of Xu Mingcheng, Xu Youshan and Xu Mingwen, Xu Yourong was stronger than they thought at that time, and not long after the first one stiffened in place, she cheered up again, and when Xu Youshan and the three of them had not come to their senses, she turned around calmly and smiled at Nie Yufu: "Miss Nie, what a coincidence." ”
"yes, what a coincidence." And Nie Yufu looked at Xu Yourong, but her eyes were a little meaningful, but Xu Yourong at that time had to maintain a calm and calm expression, which was already her biggest bottom line, how could she still have the spirit to observe the deep meaning in Nie Yufu's eyes when she looked at her?
As for Xu Mingcheng, Xu Youshan and Xu Mingwen, they have been in a state of stupor since Nie Yufu appeared, of course, they won't notice this, and if Xu Yourong hadn't gently pulled them later, it is estimated that when they left later, the three of them would still be in a state of soul wandering.
It's just that after Xu Youshan and the three of them came back to their senses, they had questions, why did this Nie Yufu come to them? But don't say anything like a chance encounter, here, the gathering of each clan and force is clearly divided. (To be continued......)
