Chapter 191: The Great War is Imminent
The border pass has been calm these days, and the moonlight is very good tonight, Chu Xiangwan sat on the hillside in the distance, looking at the moon, and his thoughts were flying. The wound on his body was still a little painful, and even if he wore a fox fur to keep him warm, he still felt that the cold wind pierced the wound. The scene ten days ago is still painful to think about now, she and Helian Cheng have come to this point, which she never expected at the beginning, but the world is so changeable, no one knows what she will become tomorrow.
"What are you thinking?" Huangfu Jingyao looked at the figure in the distance, a little heartache, the woman he loved had suffered too much, just looking at her back from afar, he knew how much pain she had in her heart. So Huangfu Jingyao stepped forward and draped his big coat on Chu Xiangwan's body.
Chu Xiangwan felt that her body was suddenly warmer, someone was wearing clothes for her, and when she turned around, it was Huangfu Jingyao, she smiled faintly: "Why are you here?" ”
"If I don't see you in the tent, I know you must be here again." Huangfu Jingyao was concerned, his care for Chu Xiangwan was subtle, although he also had a domineering and arrogant side, but he didn't want to put pressure on Chu Xiangwan, so he didn't dare to speak to Chu Xiangwan too clearly and straightforwardly. Although they don't talk much in the tent these days, they have a feeling of gradually familiarity spreading in Chu Xiangwan's heart.
Huangfu Jingyao continued: "It's cold and foggy, and your body has not healed, so you shouldn't come here. ”
"I love the view here, especially at night, when the starry sky is bright and you can touch the stars in the sky when you look up. It's much more comfortable than being stuffy in a tent all the time. Chu Xiangwan said softly.
"There's something I want to tell you." After looking at the scenery for a long time, Huangfu Jingyao spoke again.
"What's the matter?"
"In half a month, I will raise troops, and you will leave tomorrow with Yanchen and Xiao'er." Huangfu Jingyao stared at Chu Xiangwan's eyes. Saying such words, he also felt reluctant, after all, they had just reunited but were going to separate, and the next war would never be ten days and a half months, and they didn't know what it would be like to see each other again. Also, Helian Cheng will never give up, he must settle Chu Xiangwan first.
Chu Xiangwan was stunned. She didn't expect Huangfu Jingyao to make a decision so quickly. Leaving means that she will soon be able to accept Ning Yanchen's treatment and recover her memory. It's obviously a happy thing, why is she a little uncomfortable in her heart when she first heard Huangfu Jingyao say about it, and she seems to be reluctant to leave.
Chu Xiangwan said: "Leave so soon? ”
blurted out words like this, all of which made Huangfu Jingyao's eyes light up. He laughed and said, "I don't want to be so fast. But for your safety, I had to. ”
Chu Xiangwan also realized that she had lost her words, she twisted her head to the side with some embarrassment, and when her face calmed down, she turned her head back and said, "You are careful." ”
"I know, so do you." Huangfu Jingyao said with burning eyes, "In my memory, we always seem to be separated. ”
"I'm sorry. I don't remember at all. Chu Xiangwan bowed his head.
"Don't get me wrong. I don't mean to blame you, and besides, it's not your wish to lose your memory, and it's my responsibility. ”
"You once said we don't need to be polite?" Chu Xiangwan looked back at Huangfu Jingyao.
Huangfu nodded respectfully.
"Well, let's never say who is right and who is wrong, everything is impermanent, and the will of heaven is not something we can control."
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Huangfu Jingyao also smiled, but Chu Xiangwan was a little embarrassed, such a simple answer was more touching than the most intimate love words.
"By the way, you just said that we are always separated, so why don't you tell me what we were like before?" This is the first time Chu Xiangwan asked them about the past, she didn't believe it before, and then she didn't dare to ask, but now she was about to leave, but she finally asked.
Huangfu Jingyao looked at Chu Xiangwan and was silent for a long time, he sighed and said: "We were very bitter in the past, but even if we are bitter, there is also the beauty of knowing each other, I don't want to say anything more at the moment to make you feel burdened, when he recovers your memory, everything will naturally fall into place." After a while, Huangfu Jingyao said again, "Actually, I am also very conflicted, you had a hard time in the past, let you recover your memory, I don't know if it is good or bad for you." ”
"Since it is my memory, good or bad, it is a part of my life, and I am willing to bear all the hardships."
"It's true that I'm a late acquaintance." Huangfu Jingyao said with a smile.
"Helian City" Chu Xiangwan frowned, not knowing how to continue.
"You don't have to worry, there will be a battle between me and him sooner or later."
"But now that you are about to raise troops into Beijing, what should you do if he invades the border again?" Staying here these days, Chu Xiangwan is not ignorant, she knows Helian Cheng's character, and she is afraid that this is because their relationship is about to be ruined again.
"That's why I want to send you away as soon as possible, only if you leave, I can have no worries. However, I have made a pact with him that he should not act rashly for the time being. ”
Chu Xiangwan's face was a little pale, and she didn't know if it was because of the wind or because of these heavy topics, she said, "You are careful. ”
"I'm not worried about all this, my husband was born in the world, and when it comes to a vigorous life, I, as the son of the first emperor, should not live a mediocre life. On the contrary, I am worried about you, afraid that your journey will not be smooth. Huangfu was full of pride, but when he finished the last sentence, he stroked Chu Xiangwan's shoulder.
"You should know Mr. Ning's ability better than me, and Xiao'er, I'll be fine." Chu Xiangwan glanced sideways at Huangfu Jingyao's hand on his shoulder, and did not refuse, just smiled.
"The moonlight is very good tonight, I still remember that when we first met, you once sang "The Ballad of the Stars", and I will never forget that kind of singing in my life." Looking up at the moon, Huangfu Jingyao remembered the night at the bottom of the cliff again.
"Then why don't I sing it for you again, it should be a farewell before leaving." Chu Xiangwan calmed his breath and began to sing.
Such a gentle and tactful tone, such a shallow melody like water, but Huangfu Jingyao felt that there would never be a better sound in the world. He hugged Chu Xiangwan's shoulder, but he didn't look at her, just quietly admired the stars in the sky, so bright, just like Chu Xiangwan's eyes, Chu Xiangwan was not by his side in the future, as long as he looked up at the starry sky, it was as if he saw Chu Xiangwan.
