The cold wind was howling, the night road was bumpy, Yu Shu didn't know how far they had run, she sat behind Xue Rui, her arms tightly wrapped around his waist, her fingers were numb from the cold, not only cold, but also full of hesitation.

"It's almost there!" Jin Ke led the way in front, and they had already prepared the back road, close to the river bank, and there was a small boat hidden in a hidden overgrass, just enough to seat the five of them.

Xue Rui turned over and dismounted, and then hugged Yu Shu, who had already frozen, he put her hands together, took a few breaths of warmth, and then pulled her to a sheltered place, and ran to help Jin Ke and Zhao Xiaozhu carry the boat out together.

"Ahem," Yun Hua paced to Yu Shu's side, and at some point there was an extra wine bag in his hand, he handed it to Yu Shu and gestured to her: "Drink, drink two more sips." ”

Yu Shu clenched his trembling teeth, and without saying a word, he took the wine bag and poured it down, the hot liquid burned his throat, and his body finally had a hot energy.

On the bank of the river, Xue Rui and the others had just pushed the boat into the water, and there was a layer of cold blue floating on the wide river, and the rich tone made people feel dangerous for no reason, in this weather, they would be trapped by the ice if they were not careful, but they had no other way, only the waterway could allow them to avoid the pursuit of the imperial court.

Yu Shu, like Yunhua, didn't believe that Da Tidian would let them live, but because she was still in Yunhua's hands, he had to let them escape a certain distance first, and when they lost Yu Shu's talisman, Da Tidian would inevitably order them to be wiped out.

"You can leave with us." Yun Hua seemed to see through her thoughts, and his dilapidated voice concealed temptation: "I know about you and Shining." When we have fled to the border city and settled down, I will make it to you to marry. ”

This is a heart-warming mention yì, a big mention to get the "Xuannu Liuren Book", no scruples, the next step is to take the destiny of the bone, what Yu Shu will face when he returns to the capital, can be imagined.

Following Xue Rui away and flying high has become her only way out. But would the big mention fail to take this into account? He dared to let her go. It's just to be completely sure. She will eventually return to the capital, to the palm of his hand.

To go back is to separate from him, to be separated. It's a farewell.

Yu Shu clutched the wine bag tightly. I know I'm in a desperate situation. Sad, she looked at Xue Rui's busy figure, and her eyes suddenly became a little sour. She was a person who never wanted to cry, and she couldn't help but want to cry at this time.

"Senior brother," she suppressed her nasal voice, forced out a laugh, and said to Yunhua: "You lied to me once, and you want to lie to me a second time, when I don't know what you think, you are in the way of my eldest brother, you can't kill me, and you don't want me to go back and be used by the big men, so you have to coax me to go with you." ”

Hearing a trace of resentment in her words, Yun Hua said: "You are right, I don't want Zhu Muzhao to get the Heavenly Destiny Bone, that's because you and Jing Chen's children are my own grandchildren, if you don't go with us, do you want to go back to Beijing to break Jing Chen's life?" ”

Yu Shu said coldly: "If you don't return to Beijing, will you be like you, a ruthless person who abandons his family and children?" ”

In the dark, none of them could see anyone's expression, and her words seemed to poke Yunhua's scar and silence him. Yu Shu didn't regret saying heavy words, Yun Hua wanted to kill her before, she couldn't have no mustard, if it wasn't for Xue Rui's vow to live and die with her, Yun Hua really had to fight with Da Ti, she was already a dead person at this time.

At this moment, Xue Rui and the others had already packed up, beckoned Yunhua and her to get on the boat first, Jin Ke drove the horses away, Zhao Xiaozhu and Xue Rui cleaned up the traces on the shore, and then they were in the same boat and fled from here.

Jin Ke was wearing a cloak to support the boat on the bow, Yunhua, Zhao Xiaozhu, Xue Rui and Yu Shu were all hiding in the cabin, the cabin was small and narrow, and they had to meet when they stood up, the roof of the shed could block the wind but could not block the cold, and several people were so cold that their lips were blue, but fortunately there was a stove to keep warm, which was better than nothing.

Zhao Xiaozhu squatted on the edge of the stove to boil water, drumming up to make tea to drink, while he was busy, he peeked at the two people on the opposite side. Xue Rui wrapped Yu Shu in a quilt and hugged the person tightly in his arms, her head rested on his shoulder, his chest was close to her face, gentle and delicate, such intimacy, where can the two brothers and sisters have.

Yun Hua was covered with another quilt, his eyes closed and he didn't know what he was thinking, Zhao Xiaozhu looked at his father-in-law's pale face, coughed, and pretended to be relaxed and said to Xue Rui Yushu:

"Neither of you have been to the border city, let me tell you, it is much more interesting than the capital, the food and clothing are different, have you seen a camel, have you seen the Gobi Desert, I will take you to ride a camel to the Gobi Desert to watch the sunset, at night, we set up a tent, around the fire to drink wine all night, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, no one can control us, I will roast you a tender little lamb, that taste, tsk"

Zhao Xiaozhu's chatterbox couldn't be closed when it was opened, Yu Shu and Xue Rui listened quietly, no one interrupted him, under the quilt, the two hands were tightly clasped together, and gradually there was warmth.

I don't know how long it took, Zhao Xiaozhu suddenly lost his voice, Yunhua opened his eyes, and saw a pair of people on the opposite side snuggling up, sleeping with their necks crossed, he sighed silently, there was a moment of hesitation in his eyes, but it quickly settled down.

In this way, the boat traveled all night, and docked once before dawn, Jin Ke went to a nearby village and town to buy a few inconspicuous clothes, asked Yu Shu and Xue Rui to change into them, dressed up in disguise, scuttled the boat again, put on a carriage and continued to hurry.

After traveling for two days and two nights, bypassing the Taiyuan area, and coming to a small town in the evening of the third day, Yunhua was helped by Jin Ke to get out of the carriage, looked up at the sky, and said after a while: "Stay for one night, there is snow at night." ”

So they found an inn in the town and settled down. This is only the tenth day of the first month, the people have not yet come out of the New Year, there is a shopkeeper and a guy in the inn, the cook went home for the New Year, the backyard is full of empty rooms, they simply asked for four rooms in one go, except for Zhao Xiaozhu and Yunhua to sleep in a room to take care of him, everyone else is alone.

The carriage was pulled directly into the backyard, and Jin Ke unloaded the carriage. asked the guy to feed the horse, called Zhao Xiaozhu to make the bed and fold the quilt, and he went to chop wood and boil water by himself. After Yu Shu saw that they were busy, he wanted to go up to help, but as soon as Xue Rui pulled her, he brought someone into the house, pressed her on the bed and took off her boots, and wrapped her tightly with the quilt.

"Lie still, I'll look for something to eat."

Along the way, Yu Shu's lips were full of dry skin. A few of them are fine. She is a girl with fine skin and tender flesh, her hands and feet have long been frozen and cracked, and her feet are swollen, painful and itchy. She held back and remained silent. It doesn't mean that Xue Rui doesn't know.

He asked the shopkeeper in front of him. Taking advantage of the fact that it was not yet dark, I found a medicinal herb shop and prepared some chilblain medicine, and bought a few taels of red dates and cloud ginger. Back at the inn, I went into the kitchen.

Jin Ke came in with a pile of firewood from outside, and when he saw Xue Rui squatting on the edge of the stove, he hurriedly put down his things and stepped forward to take hands: "I'll come, I'll come, just go and rest." ”

In the end, he was honest and knew that he had deceived Xue Rui this time, it was they who were wrong, Xue Rui didn't even give him a straight eye this way, Jin Ke secretly complained, for fear that he would hate himself, and how could he be unflattering when he seized the opportunity.

Xue Rui didn't fight with him, stood up and asked him to add firewood to the fire, and he took two bowls and soaked the herbs separately with vinegar first. Jin Ke often walks on the rivers and lakes, well-informed, as soon as he uses vinegar to soak medicine, he knows that it is a home remedy for chilblains, and when he sees that his hands are clean, he guesses that he has frozen feet, so he flatters:

"When the water boils, I'll soak your feet first."

Xue Rui glanced at him coldly, Jin Ke didn't dare to talk anymore, honestly boiled his water, Xue Rui turned around and went to the room to find a teapot, waited for the water to boil, first scalded a pot of red jujube cloud ginger tea, poured a large basin of hot water, and brought it into Yu Shu's room.

Zhao Xiaozhu hid aside, saw him go out, squeezed into the kitchen, stood beside Jin Ke, bumped his shoulder, and whispered: "Big brother, do you see it?" ”

Jin Ke frowned: "What? ”

Zhao Xiaozhu stretched out two thumbs up, squeezed his eyebrows and said, "Second brother and Miss Yu are this." ”

Jin Ke had a bitter face, of course he could see it, otherwise he would be worried about something. You must know that he almost killed Yu Shu in front of Xue Rui, can Xue Rui not be annoyed with him?

", as far as you know, have you time to gossip and skip eating? Hurry up and find rice and noodles! ”

Zhao Xiaozhu was scolded for no reason, and went to the shopkeeper to ask for ingredients. In the room, Xue Rui sat at the head of Yu Shu's bed, washed a handkerchief with hot water, and was about to wipe her face, Yu Shu's face was skinned, and he didn't want him to take a closer look at her ugly appearance, so he stretched out his hand and said:

"I'll wash it myself."

Xue Rui took the opportunity to take her hand, and looked down to see that several of her knuckles were red, swollen and swollen, and there were small cracks in some places, and there were blood scabs, and he gently wiped the back of her palm without saying a word, and stuffed it back into the quilt.

Yu Shu couldn't resist him, so he had to let him serve her once, but after washing his hands and face, he saw him bring a wooden basin, rolled up his sleeves and tested the temperature of the water, and asked her to stretch out her feet, but she refused to say anything.

"How can I ask you to wash my feet, no, no," Yu Shu pushed him with a smile, "You go out, I'll soak it myself." ”

Xue Rui squatted beside her bed, looked up at her and said: "Daughter's feet, only the husband can see it, only the husband can touch it, in my heart, I have long regarded you as a wife, and I will not marry you." ”

Yu Shu was in a trance, his tone was too serious, and his eyes were too sincere, so that these words didn't sound like a confession to her, but like an oath. She should have replied with a sentence of "If you are not a gentleman, you will not marry", but her mouth is like a sticky paste, and she can't open it.

But seeing that his eyes dimmed a little bit, she couldn't bear it, although she didn't speak, she stretched out her feet and put them on his lap, and his dark and shining eyes instantly had a look.

After washing her feet, Xue Rui rubbed chilblain medicine on her hands and feet, and watched her drink a big bowl of red jujube cloud ginger tea, and then closed the door and went out.

Jin Ke and Zhao Xiaozhu were still cooking in the kitchen, Xue Rui came to the opposite guest room, Yunhua changed into a clean cotton coat and sat on the bed, holding a cup of steaming tea in his hand, covered with a half-quilt, obviously the two righteous sons took care of him meticulously.

Xue Rui didn't go around in circles, and asked him straight to the point: "What are your plans?" He didn't believe that Yunhua would let go of a qiē and go to the border city to live in seclusion.

Yun Hua patted the side of the bed, Xue Rui followed his meaning and walked to him and sat down, the head of the bed was lit with an oil lamp, Yun Hua looked at Xue Rui with these few inches of light, and spoke slowly:

"Let's go to the border city first and avoid it for two or three years."

Xue Rui sneered: "First there is the hatred of killing my father, and then there is the hatred of taking my wife. You want me to hide and be a turtle? ”

"Is the hatred of killing your father and taking your wife," Yunhua murmured, people are alive, if they can't bear it, it's nothing more than these two things. When he killed his father, it was for Xue Soap, and Zhu Muzhao personally admitted that he killed the person; said that it was for Yu Shu, she and Xue Rui made a private agreement for life, but they couldn't live and live together. It was also forced by Zhu Muzhao.

There is such a deep hatred. As a man who stands up to the sky, how could Xue Rui be willing to hide and steal his life.

Yun Huaxin couldn't say it well, but he was afraid that Xue Rui had the intention of venturing back to Beijing. Then he got up: "You want revenge." I'm not going to stop you. But if you want to hit a stone with an egg and send you to die, I will never agree to it. With your current situation, you want to seek revenge on Zhu Muzhao. It's tantamount to a grasshopper shaking a tree, and it can't do it all. I know that you are reluctant to be separated from Yu Shu and do not want to be separated from her, but if you follow her back to Beijing together, she can save her life, and you only have one way to die, but it is better for you to be separated from each other and be well. ”

"You can rest assured that I will not return to Beijing at this time." Xue Rui's eyebrows twisted into a fierce force, and he said in a deep voice: "Until the day I return to Beijing, it will be the time for me to take revenge." ”

Seeing him like this, Yunhua was both relieved and guilty, reached out and patted him on the shoulder, and said, "No matter what, my father will help you." ”

Xue Rui didn't dodge, after being comforted by him, he got up and refilled a cup of hot tea for him, Yun Huagang was a little flattered, and saw him go to tuck the quilt for him expressionlessly, bent down closer, and asked in a low voice:

"What you got from the big mention point, is it really the "Xuannu Liuren Book"?"

Yun Hua was stunned for a moment, and without waiting for an answer, Xue Rui retreated, a pair of discerning eyes fell on his face, and after a moment's pause, he turned around with his master

Dinner was both meat and vegetarian, Yu Shu was hungry for a few days, and finally had a hot meal, Xue Rui vigorously added vegetables and soup to her bowl, Jin Ke's cooking skills were really good, they caught a pheasant on the road, and he stewed it into a pot of chicken soup, most of which went into her stomach.

After the meal, some guys cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and they went back to their rooms to rest. Yu Shu extinguished the oil lamp, lay on the bed, listened to the movement next door, and distinguished the sound of Xue Rui pouring tea and water, and waited until the other side of the wall was completely quiet before she slowly closed her eyes.

There was a wind outside the window, whining like a cry, in the dark, Yu Shu opened his eyes suddenly, sat up from the bed, groped to put on his shoes, draped a quilt on his body, walked to the door step by step, opened and closed the door, and then walked to the door next door step by step, bent two fingers, and knocked lightly.

"Big brother, have you slept?"

In the house, Xue Rui heard her call for the door, hurriedly turned on the lamp, didn't care about the clothes, strode to open the door for her, the cold wind poured in, she hugged the quilt with her head, standing pitifully outside the door, he pulled people in without saying a word, and closed the door tightly.

"It's so cold outside, what are you running out for?" Xue Rui brought her to his bedside and sat down, not because of him Meng Lang, but because this guest room was simple, a small room, and only such a place could sit people.

Yu Shu blinked his eyes and whispered, "I can't sleep alone." ”

Alone, can't sleep. Xue Rui was stunned when he heard this, he had a romantic life anyway, how could he not understand the meaning of these words, but the person who said this was Yu Shu, so he didn't know what to do.

Yu Shu saw that he was stunned, and secretly gritted his teeth, but when he didn't understand, he cheekily added: "It's cold at night, let's squeeze the two of us." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, she felt that her face was hot, and she was not ashamed of the two lives combined, she hugged the quilt over, and she was determined to sleep with him tonight.

Seeing her like this, how could Xue Rui be willing to refuse her, he sighed with a smile, rubbed her hair, and bent down to take off her shoes: "Then you lie inside, I'll lie outside." ”

"Hmm." Yu Shu rolled up her quilt and crawled inside to lie down shyly, Xue Rui checked the doors and windows, then also got on the bed, shook off his quilt, covered her with a layer first, and then lay down in it himself, so that although he was lying on the same bed with her, there was a quilt in the middle.

There was only one pillow, which was given to Yu Shu, and he leaned sideways on his arm and looked at her softly, "Sleep, I'll guard you." ”

The lamp at the head of the bed was on, so a little firelight, not as bright as his eyes, Yu Shu stretched out a finger, from his forehead to the bridge of his nose, tracing his outline, to keep this face firmly in mind.

Xue Rui indulged her every move, holding her into his arms, rubbing her throbbing into his bones, letting her fingers rub against his lips and hook his chin.

Yu Shu leaned over and kissed him quickly, Xue Rui chuckled, grabbed her finger and put it to her lips, and pecked it, the slightly sour smell of medicine on her hand was not good, but he was reluctant to let go.

"Does your hand still hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt anymore."

"What about the feet?"

"It doesn't hurt anymore."

"Is it cold?"

Such a simple answer was obviously not tasteful, but it made Yu Shu's heartbeat faster, which invisibly gave her courage and made her let go of her reserve, and just wanted to be closer to him, closer.

"Cold." She lifted the inner layer of the quilt and slipped into his bed, and before he could react, she reached out and hugged his waist and buried her face in his arms. She only had a middle coat on her, and her body was clearly hot under the thin fabric, and it was so tender that it almost burned him.

"Big brother, sharing a bed is a husband and wife, and I only have you in my heart." Her voice was astringent.

Xue Rui's heart slammed hard, he could still be a gentleman, but at this moment, he forgot what etiquette he had, his ears were buzzing, and when he came back to his senses, he was already hugging her tightly, holding her back with one hand, holding her head with the other, and couldn't wait to bite her lip, which was overwhelmingly entangled, and both of them couldn't breathe when kissing.

"Ashu" He buried his head beside her neck, breathing unevenly, trembling slightly, as if trying his best to restrain his impulse, and the wet and faint breath penetrated into her ears and eyes: "It's good for you to wait for me, and when I get done, I will pick you up and ask you to marry me openly." ”

Yu Shu's heart trembled, his eyes became sour again, on the way to escape, he didn't open his mouth to keep her from beginning to end, and he never asked her to make a choice between him and his relatives, not because he didn't want her to go with him, but because he understood her too well, so he couldn't even say a word to stay, not afraid that she would refuse, but afraid that she would be embarrassed.

is so considerate, how can she not love, hate to give her life to him, but she has a large family behind her, up and down more than a dozen lives, she can't do what she wants, so she can only endure the pain and separate from him.

She also understands him, how can he let go of the revenge of killing his father, this time he left in order to make a comeback in the future, he asked her to wait, she went back and waited for him, whether it was three or five years, or ten or twenty years, there is this hope, I believe that they will meet again one day.

"Okay." She wrapped her arms around his neck and bit him the shoulder, tears falling silently: "Don't lie to me, I'm waiting for you to marry me." ”

With this promise, it is worth a thousand words, and both hearts are at peace.

The little light at the head of the bed refused to disperse, enveloping the intertwined figures, and the cold wind outside the window hid a few soft whispers. The night is sleepless, the love is difficult, I don't complain about lovesickness, I only hate tomorrow morning. (To be continued......)

PS:――――(After thinking about it, I still pull the lamp, I don't want meat for meat, and the parting scene is still plain.) After Yu Shu returns to Beijing, he will explain some more things, and he will fast forward and jump for a few years at a time, so as not to let them be separated for too long. ）
