Chapter 45: Midnight
Ye Jinqing is holding a pen in his right hand, silently writing a poem. After only two sentences were written, I could hear the person behind me say.
Ye Jinqing pouted, but still changed the pen from her right hand to her left hand, and continued to write the remaining two sentences.
After a poem was written, Ye Jinqing put down the pen, picked up the rice paper, blew it lightly, and waited for the ink to dry.
Before she could finish admiring what she had written, the man behind snatched it first. Su Xuan took Ye Jinqing's silent verses and watched them quietly.
"Grape wine glow-in-the-dark glass, if you want to drink the pipa, urge immediately. Drunk and lying on the battlefield, Jun Mo smiled, and a few people came back to fight in ancient times. ”
The glyphs of the first two lines of the poem are full of casual and leisurely, but the style of the last two lines of the poem has changed abruptly, although this poem is about the cruelty of the battlefield, but each word has a slight upward meaning, so that the rhyme of the whole poem has changed. With the kind of courage that knows that the road ahead is difficult, but can still face the difficulties with a smile.
The different handwriting of the two fonts gives a poem two different artistic conceptions, but these two artistic conceptions should be in harmony with the content of the poem, so that the change of the font is not obvious.
"It's better than I expected."
Su Xuan also didn't expect Ye Jinqing to be able to integrate these two different rhymes just right.
"It's better."
Ye Jinqing snatched the rice paper from Su Xuan's hand and looked at it carefully. This word is really a few points better than the previous ones.
Looking at Ye Jinqing, who was a little complacent, Su Xuan diverted the conversation and said, "What are you going to do tomorrow?" ”
Hearing Su Xuan's inquiry, Ye Jinqing replied casually: "Naturally, I went to the city tower with you." ”
Su Xuan shook his head, stretched out two fingers, and tapped Ye Jinqing's smooth head.
"Stop looking at what you're writing, it's silly to read it any longer. Tomorrow, the Changdi clan will never come to attack the city again, so I don't have to go to the city tomorrow to blow the cold wind. ”
Ye Jinqing then took his eyes off the font in his hand: "Chang Di is scared by us?" Is the crisis in Zhenbeiguan resolved? Can we go home? ”
Go home. Su Xuan secretly chewed these two words, does this refer to his Su Mansion.
"I didn't expect it to be late." Su Xuan shook his head in frustration and said.
Ye Jinqing looked at Su Xuan with a puzzled expression, not understanding why he suddenly became depressed and lost.
"Look, you're not stupid, Changdi is a member of the Di clan, if I expect it to be good, then Chidi is already on the way."
Only then did Ye Jinqing understand that Su Xuan's words just now were squeezing himself, and he actually forgot that there was such a thing as Chidi.
"Then Chidi is here, what should we do?"
Thinking that it is only a narrow victory over Changdi now, if the Chidi clan is involved, then this town of Beiguan is really dangerous.
"What's the matter, since I have already sworn to defend the north pass of this town in Jinyang, no matter how many Di people come, I have to block it."
Knowing that Su Xuan would not easily confide even if he had a strategy, Ye Jinqing didn't want to break the casserole and ask to the end.
"Dai Lao should have received a lot of wounded soldiers, and I promised Sister Zhou before that I would go to help, so can I go to the hospital tomorrow?"
Thinking that he had made an appointment with Zhou Qingwan to go to the hospital before, but he had delayed going for so many days, Ye Jinqing suddenly felt a little sorry for Zhou Qingwan.
"Hospital."
Su Xuan lowered his head and thought for a while: "It's okay, I'm just going to see how the casualties of those generals are." Su Xing was also injured a lot this time, and asked Dai Lao how he was treated. ”
"Su Xing." Ye Jinqing thought of the young man who was quiet on weekdays.
"And when are we going to leave tomorrow?"
"Naturally, the sooner the better."
As the night deepened, Su Xuan blew out the last candle in the room, and in an instant, the room was pitch black.
Su Xuan still calmly bypassed the screen, put on a moon-white underwear and lay on the bed.
Su Xuan secretly recalled today's battle in the day, although he seemed to be confident, but he was really standing at the head of the city, so many soldiers' lives were in his hands, he was still a little nervous, but he hid it very well, and others could not easily see it.
I think that when he thought of this plan at that time, he deduced it in his mind no less than a hundred times, but fortunately, there were no major mistakes. Thinking of this, Su Xuan exhaled deeply.
"Su Xuan, you're asleep." Ye Jinqing's small voice came from the other side of the screen.
"Nope." Su Xuan replied.
Hearing Su Xuan's answer, Ye Jinqing was a little relieved.
But after a while, Ye Jinqing asked again, "Su Xuan, aren't you asleep yet?" ”
"Nope."
After a few breaths, Ye Jinqing asked the same thing again, but this time it was quiet on the other side of the screen.
Ye Jinqing waited and waited, but still didn't hear an answer, and carefully pulled the quilt, covering half of his face, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed, looking around vigilantly.
Ye Jinqing thought that he had stood in the city for most of the day today, and he had watched the battle situation for most of the day with his heart, and he would fall asleep at night.
But who knows, as soon as she closes her eyes now, mountains of bones appear, rivers of bloody battlefields, and fragmented wreckage.
In the quiet room, there was a sudden sound of Suosuo, and Ye Jinqing's hand pulling the quilt tightened even more. The sound was getting closer and closer, and Ye Jinqing's heart was beating out of his chest.
Hearing only an exclamation, Ye Jinqing stabbed and got into the bed.
"What a coward."
The familiar voice came through the thick quilt, Ye Jinqing got out of the quilt, and Su Xuan didn't know when he had lit the candlestick again.
The fluorescent candlelight illuminated Ye Jinqing's messy hair and frightened expression more clearly.
"Let's sleep with the light on tonight."
Looking at Ye Jinqing's appearance, Su Xuan stretched out his hand and gently brushed away the hair covering Ye Jinqing's face. Before he could withdraw his hand, Ye Jinqing held his hand first.
Su Xuan watched Ye Jinqing bury most of her face in her hands, and her eyebrows revealed a rare vulnerability. This seemed to be the first time since he met her that Jin'er showed this helpless look in front of him.
Su Xuan's heart was sullen, and he regretted a little that he shouldn't have taken her to the city recklessly.
"Jin'er, don't be afraid, I'm here."
Ye Jinqing didn't know when he fell asleep, but he remembered that there seemed to be a hazy shadow beside him all the time.
The next day, when the sky was still bright, Su Xuan and Ye Jinqing got into a carriage and drove to the medical hall.
Although it was a little sleepless at first last night, Ye Jinqing slept until dawn later. At this moment, Ye Jinqing was in good spirits, and picked up the curtain and looked out.
But the streets outside were empty, it was wartime, and it was still early, and the carriage that Ye Jinqing was sitting in was driving alone on the road.
Ye Jinqing put down the curtain with some interest, but she didn't know what to do for a while. Turning his head, he saw Su Xuan holding his hand, supporting his head, closing his eyes, and leaning on a few points.
Ye Jinqing wanted to talk to Su Xuan, but noticed that Su Xuan's eyes were thick and indissolvable, and the complexion of Yin was extremely pale, and his heart warmed.
Thinking of this morning, as soon as I opened my eyes, I saw a figure lying on his small couch.
The man carefully rested his hand on the edge of the couch, his head resting on his right hand, his long hair covering his face
, the side of the robe that was casually draped on his body had slipped off.
Ye Jinqing moved at that time, and when he wanted to cover his outer robe, he found that his hand was tightly wrapped by a big hand.
Ye Jinqing looked at his right hand steadily, and it seemed that he still had the temperature of holding each other all night.
