In the middle of summer in June, at noon, the Chudi Plain was still like a blazing sun.

Xu Buling rushed to the front-line military camp with more than ten light horsemen and continued to quell the rebellion of the four kings 'for the imperial court'. But this time, the identity is obviously different; Xu You, the king of Su, and 100,000 Xiliang troops sat in Guanzhong, and Xiao Chuyang, the young prime minister of the Son of Heaven, handled the government on his behalf, which basically meant that the Xu family had the final say in everything. Xu Buling was naturally appointed as the commander of the counterinsurgency army, and Guan Hongye was transferred back to Guanzhong and stayed in the Guan family's mansion to retire.

The confrontation between the two armies was not an overnight thing, and the weather was too hot to walk under the scorching sun during the day, and they all hurried at night.

During the war, the population was already sparse, and at noon, there was no half of a figure, and it was built in the post station next to the official road, and several royal guards patrolled in the shade, and the rest rested in the post station.

Cui Xiaowan stayed alone in the room, lying on the bed with a mat, looking up at the roof, and sighing faintly from time to time.

The guest room is not simple, but it is just an ordinary room, the function of warm in winter and cool in summer is not there, the sun is almost red tiles, and even the room has become like a steamer, and even the mat is hot.

Cui Xiaowan sees everything very lightly, but after all, she is a weak woman who doesn't know martial arts, and it is impossible not to feel cold, hot and sleepy. I was tired from traveling all night, and I was almost steamed when I lay here, and I couldn't sleep.

In the past, in Peach Blossom Valley, summer was very cool, even when it was the hottest, she could run to the river to take a wild bath, she was alone in the world, and she wanted to do what she wanted, but it was obviously not possible in the post station. Cui Xiaowan could only calm down, secretly muttering 'calm and naturally cool'.

Got it—got it—

The sound of cicadas outside the window is like in my ears, and the more I meditate, the clearer I can hear it.

After Cui Xiaowan endured it for a long time, she finally couldn't stand it anymore, turned her head to look at the head of the bed, raised her hand, and wanted to get the teacup on it......

----

Smack-

In the next room, Xu Buling was lying on the pillow and closed his eyes and fell asleep, and when he heard the sound of porcelain breaking, he woke up instantly, and his eyes looked sharply in the direction where the sound came from, but only the soft breathing of the woman remained.

？

Xu Buling listened carefully, and nothing wrong happened. But to be on the safe side, he got up and put on his boots, walked out of the door with his sword, came to the next room, raised his hand and tapped:

"Miss Cui?"

There was silence in the room for a while, and then a weak voice sounded:

"I'm fine, I accidentally dropped the teacup......"

Xu Buling frowned, raised his hand and pushed open the door, and in a blink of an eye, Cui Xiaowan was lying on the bed wearing only a thin Luo shirt, and the cloth buttons on the placket were unfastened two, revealing the corners of the half of the snow under the collarbone and the belly pocket.

"What are you doing in here?"

Cui Xiaowan saw Xu Buling coming over, raised her hand and pulled the collar of her shirt, but she didn't get up.

Xu Buling took the teapot and cup from the table, walked to the front and sat down, poured a glass of water and handed it to her:

"The weather is too hot, and the post station is relatively simple, which is a bit difficult. Leaving tonight, it is estimated that it will be able to Nanyang in the early morning of tomorrow, and it will be comfortable when I return to the ship. ”

Cui Xiaowan pursed her lips, stood up and sat on the bed, took the teacup with her little hand, and took a sip.

The weather was hot and there was no blanket, and he was only wearing a thin shirt with no buttons. Holding the teacup in both hands and bowing his head to drink water, his throat moved slightly, the collar was also scattered, the pale cyan belly pocket inside was very tight, sweating, more transparent, embroidered with peach petals, faintly visible and slightly protruding......

Xu Buling sat next to him, this glance swept over, it was already dry, but now it was hotter, his eyes moved, and he was a little hesitant to move away.

Cui Xiaowan held the water cup, drank and looked at Xu Buling.

Xu Buling coughed lightly, looked left and right in a blink of an eye, picked up the fan on the small table, and fanned it next to him: "It's hot, and my clothes are soaked with sweat......

With a faint coolness, Cui Xiaowan suddenly felt a lot more comfortable, her scrutinizing gaze softened, she put down the teacup, and lay back down: "For the sake of you fanning me, I don't blame you." As he spoke, he took out a small mahogany sign from under his pillow and began to engrave orthography again.

Xu Buling is used to it, and when he wakes up anyway, he is not in a hurry to go back. Raising his hand and shaking the fan, he smiled: "Don't carve it, go to sleep, I'll leave when you fall asleep." ”

Cui Xiaowan held the carving knife intently and shook her head: "You are in front of you, how can I sleep?" ”

"Why don't I knock you out?"

？

Cui Xiaowan made a movement in her hand, thought about it, and slept inside: "No, Auntie, I'm dizzy, you must be dishonest." ”

“……”

Xu Buling was just joking, and when he saw Cui Xiaowan calling herself 'aunt', he shook his head and said, "What aunt, you don't look as old as me." Besides, how could I take advantage of others' danger. ”

Cui Xiaowan took the mahogany card and said softly: "I'm twenty-eight years old, the same age as her master in Qingye, and I'm the former queen...... No, now it's the Queen Mother, and you originally called me Auntie. By the way, the Queen Mother is now the Queen Mother. ”

What's the matter......

Xu Buling shrugged slightly, not knowing how to respond.

Cui Xiaowan finished carving the mahogany card, put it back under the pillow, and looked sideways at Xu Buling:

"I have been in the palace for several years, and the emperor's work and rest are very regular, almost unchanged, and it is impossible to accumulate labor and die suddenly. You killed the emperor, right? ”

When Xu Buling heard this, his expression stiffened slightly. The consequences of killing the monarch are too serious, what he did in the Taiji Hall is naturally to use a high-pressure policy to seal up, no matter what is written in the history books, at least no one dares to talk nonsense now. Naturally, I won't tell Cui Xiaowan about this.

Seeing Cui Xiaowan asking, Xu Buling knew that he couldn't deceive her, so he sighed lightly: "Yes, hmm...... That's a bit of a hassle......"

Cui Xiaowan shook her head: "You don't have to explain to me. In order to seize power, there are many cases of father and son killing each other and siblings in ancient times, you and the emperor have long been dead, if you don't kill him, he will kill you, and there is nothing to be done about it. However, I can't praise you, I used to be the queen, and the queen mother was the queen mother. You kill the emperor and **** mother ......"

？！

Xu Buling stumbled and raised his hand: "Miss Cui, don't talk nonsense." Xiang'er and I are in love, and I am even more innocent to Miss Cui, but I didn't do anything angry and resentful to you. ”

Cui Xiaowan's expression was calm, and she said seriously: "I'm here with you, and I can't go anywhere else, it must be written in the history books." What 'Tai Chi Hall on the killing of its king, overnight in the dragon bed chaos palace', but my mother and I should be victims, sympathized with by future generations, you must be stinking for 10,000 years. ”

Xu Buling held back for a long time and had nothing to say.

Cui Xiaowan smiled: "If a man dares to act, you don't have to worry, as long as you do more practical things for the people in the future, future generations will not hold on to this little thing." ”

Xu Buling nodded, and naturally kept Cui Xiaowan's pillow wind in mind.

The fan shook gently, and the breeze was gentle.

Cui Xiaowan was already sleepy, but when she cooled down, she naturally felt a little sleepy, and after saying a few words, she slowly closed her eyes and leaned quietly on the pillow.

Xu Buling shook the fan, looked at it a few times, and as soon as the folding fan stopped, it was estimated that he would wake up again, so he simply sat on the edge of the bed and shook it until the sunset was in the west......

I'm writing the tenth volume of the outline, but I haven't sorted it out yet, and I haven't even started the title of the volume, so it's estimated that I will have to transition in two days......
