Chapter 468: There Are No Absolutes
Looking up at the fireworks in the sky, the story between the two of them continued in this unending excitement.
Now this Lin'an City is like boiling water, and there are people everywhere you go. With the bends and turns in the gap in the main stream, Zhu Xishi and Zhao Zhengyuan unknowingly came to the moat.
The Jade Belt River surrounds the imperial city, and the clear water completely separates the atmosphere on both sides. Far away from the bank of the river in the imperial city, men, women and children are mixed and intertwined, and they are happy to crowd on the bank to put river lanterns Xu Ping'an, sending lovesickness; On the other side of the river, between the palace roads, the forbidden army of the imperial city formed groups of three or five, patrolling back and forth around the palace.
When there is silence and movement, the atmosphere seems to be a little distinct.
At this time, when Zhu Xi, who was cautiously shuttling through the crowd with Zhao Zhenyuan, he also had a little regret in his heart: Why do you have to come here to join in the fun? Suffering. And looked up at Zhao Zhenyuan, who was opening the way in front, and the seriousness shown in his side face was as persistent as holding his hand at this time, Zhu Xishi really couldn't muster the courage to stop.
But soon, the two walked on the jade bridge leading to the Beigong Gate, and Zhu Xishi understood Zhao Zhenyuan's plan at this time, and his heart became even more apprehensive.
"Hey, Zhao Zhenyuan, this is not good"
Timidly said a word to Zhao Zhenyuan, but before he could respond to him, the forbidden army patrolling around the imperial city blocked it.
"Don't trespass on the important places of Miyagi, please retreat to the other side to see the scenery and put the lights."
"What, not even this king?"
In the face of the obstruction of the forbidden army, Zhao Zhenyuan raised his unruly eyes to meet the other party, and those who had the eyesight and price naturally saw who was coming, and the momentum was instantly overwhelmed.
"It turned out to be Lord Rong. The little eye is clumsy, please say hello to the prince. ”
Seeing that several forbidden soldiers clasped their fists and saluted, Zhao Zhenyuan didn't have many big shelves. Said it calmly.
"On the occasion of this festive season, you are still guarding the safety inside and outside the imperial city, and you brothers of the forbidden army have worked hard."
"The prince praises falsely, this is the responsibility of the little ones, and they dare not slack off in the slightest."
A clever forbidden soldier took Zhao Zhenyuan's words, turned to peek at him and Zhu Xi, and asked cautiously.
"The prince is going to enter the palace? At this hour, the palace is about to fall, it seems"
"This king is not entering the palace at this moment. I just want to borrow a clean place here to enjoy the scenery around the Yudai River. ”
If these words have the effect of enlightenment, the forbidden army blocking the road in front of them has opened up. On the occasion of the festive season. It is naturally a beautiful thing to bring a beauty to feel the excitement of the city here, and looking at the black crowd on the other side of the river, how can a person with Zhao Zhenyuan's identity be crowded into it? It is estimated that if you put it on the other side, all the good mood will be dispersed.
understood Zhao Zhenyuan's intention. This forbidden soldier also said with a good sense of current affairs.
"It turns out that the prince is appreciating the scenery of the Jade Belt River by purity. The little nature is not daring to disturb the prince's temperament, please. ”
Respectfully replying, the Janissary whispered to his fellow wards, as if telling them to pass on the word and not disturb them as they patrol along the way.
At this time, when Zhu Xi, who was looking at all this from behind, couldn't help but wonder: Who dares not to sell his face as a prince of Rong? It's true that there are differences in status and treatment.
"Hmm." Zhao Zhenyuan simply answered, took out his money bag from his arms and threw it to the forbidden soldier. said lightly: "These are considered to be the king's reward for the soldiers guarding the city, and after the change of defense." Buy some good wine and meat and celebrate with your brothers. During the holidays, you can't treat your brothers badly. ”
"Thank you, Lord Rong! Brothers, King Rong has a reward, and after the change of guard, invite us to a good drink. ”
"Lord Xie Rong's reward!!"
Suddenly, all the soldiers in the imperial city thanked each other in unison, and this jubilant energy echoed with the excitement on the other side, which was very eye-catching.
"Let's go on patrol, let's walk along the perimeter of the Yudai River."
As he spoke, Zhao Zhenyuan quietly pulled Zhu Xishi towards the secluded place, leaving the discussions of the forbidden soldiers behind.
When Zhu Xi was walking behind, although he couldn't hear what the soldiers of the forbidden army who had not dispersed were quietly discussing, he could roughly guess the reason in his heart: this limelight was a little dazzling.
felt awkward in his heart, Zhu Xishi didn't mind if he and Zhao Zhenyuan were too close at this time, and hurriedly broke free from his restraint.
"I'll go by myself."
"What, I'm afraid that people will play right and wrong behind my back?"
The palms of the hands were empty, but the residual warmth was still there, making the heart a little painful.
"Although I'm not like you, I'm a man of the hour in Lin'an, but I still have to avoid suspicion."
"Hmph, put a hundred and twenty hearts, you look so ugly, I guess no one will recognize you."
I don't know if Zhao Zhenyuan's words made him sulky or joking, anyway, when Zhu Xishi heard it in his ears, he was as energetic as chicken blood.
"You're ugly, and the whole family is ugly!"
"My whole family is ugly? My mother is the current queen mother, and my brother is the supreme of the Great Song Dynasty; If this word reaches their ears, it will be more than enough to cure you of contempt. ”
“”
In the bright moon and clear breeze, Zhao Zhenyuan, who was standing in front of Zhu Xishi with his back, didn't know what his expression was. felt that he was joking at himself, but he always felt that his momentum around him was a little intimidating, and he felt that he was talking seriously, but he felt that he was snickering behind his back at this time.
Such a contradictory mood made Zhu Xishi like an oil fruit, repeatedly fried in hot oil.
"You want to put on a score, I'm sorry, I can't afford to accompany you in the past."
"Only the governor was allowed to set fires, and the people were not allowed to light lamps. Your character is domineering, and you scolded you, and you didn't even give you a chance to ask for interest? Stingy bag. ”
The mystery was finally revealed, and Zhao Zhenyuan, who turned his head under the bright moon, smiled as bright as moonlight. And Zhu Xishi, I have to say that this person is really magical when he laughs, and he suddenly made himself look stupid.
"What are you looking at? Do I have something dirty on my face? ”
Puzzled by Zhu Xi's stupidity, Zhao Zhenyuan rubbed his face while asking, but he was a little shy of a young man.
"Less smelly and beautiful, a hippie face, you will be blind and unable to eat after watching it for a long time."
There was no forgiveness on his lips, Zhu Xishi immediately turned his head to put away his gaffe, and looked at the flowing "galaxy" in the Yudai River. This river lantern that drifts with the tide carries the wishes of people's hearts, and they don't know where they are going to drift; Looking, watching, can't help but arouse another infatuation in people's hearts.
Life is like a torrent, fate is uncertain, and many troubles in the world are like this rolling river, and they will eventually run to the unknown future with their heart's wishes.
The good and the bad will become a cloud of the past, and you don't have to remember too much.
"Zhao Zhenyuan, there is something I want to ask you."
"You say yes."
Zhao Zhenyuan, who responded happily, frowned slightly, and there was a trace of bitterness between the corners of his lips.
"For you, there is never a question of asking for or not asking."
"Don't be so absolute, maybe you can't do what I beg you?"
When Zhu Xi was in the river breeze, her face suddenly became extremely serious, and when she was brewing the emotions in her heart and facing Zhao Zhenyuan again, her expression suddenly hurt people.
"The thing I want to ask you for is about Xiaoyi and Princess Yongning, is it okay?" (To be continued......)
