"Don't tell anyone about what we are doing in your house." I put down the empty medicine bowl and whispered to him.

"No one?" Cai Yu asked.

"Nobody."

After a slight pause in his eyes, Cai Yu said, "I'm going to see Xinrong", and hurriedly left from the wing.

"Qingzhi, help me up, I want to go to the yard to have a look." Du Rong coughed lightly twice and said to me.

I don't agree, "You can't move your injury, and you can stay alive, if you can't sleep, I'll find you some books that interest you, and you can just sit and read." ”

Du Rong frowned slightly, and complained slightly, "Why do you care so much?" It's like a long-winded housekeeper. ”

I was angry, my hands were on my hips, and I stared at him with a straight face, "If I were really a verbose housekeeper, I would be chattering in your ear every day, so that you would not have a moment to rest, hum." ”

Du Rong was stunned for a moment, then restrained himself and laughed softly.

"Little green branches, little green branches......"

When I saw him laughing, I laughed along, got up and went out the door, and it wasn't long before I walked in through the door with a large stack of books.

"Cai Yu has a lot of books here, Lord Cai always stares at him and reads these things, I picked among them, but there are quite a few interesting ones." I put the book next to the bed, then found a small stool and sat down next to the bed, "Look, do you like to read?" ”

Du Rong flipped through two books at random, the title of the book was either "Ancient Secret Techniques" or "Nine Turns of the Spirit Pill", saying that he was not interested, but it was not true, but if he wanted to say that he was interested, it was not the case.

"Which one do you want to read?" When I saw that he had not chosen the books to read, I couldn't help but wonder what I had known about him for many years.

Doesn't he deserve to love these books the most?

"That's it." Du Rong raised his finger and pointed to a book with white characters on a blue background with a new cover.

I was a little curious about which one he chose, so I leaned over and took a look, ""Peach Blossom Debt - Muzhi"? This is a book about the love of the rivers and lakes, and it is not a serious book. ”

I kindly reminded him, but he didn't think so: "Good books and books, only after reading them will you understand." ”

I shook my head and went with him.

I casually spread out the few folds I had just brought from outside, and I lowered my head and looked at them carefully.

"Is this an excerpt about the affairs of the court?" Du Rong asked me.

I nodded, "Now that Lu Xuan's power is growing wildly, even Taifu Pei is showing a disadvantage, and the chaos in the court is probably not far away." ”

"Which of them do you think will win?" Du Rong looked at me.

My eyes narrowed slightly, and I shook my head and smiled, "It's just a rebel and a thief, who can win?" ”

Du Rong's voice was silent, he didn't speak again, and turned the page to read.

Seeing this, I didn't say anything and continued with what I was doing.

Because it was still night, because the bright moon in the sky had not yet set, everything around me seemed extraordinarily silent, the sound of his flipping book, the sound of my breathing, everything, as if he had returned to the past in an instant, at that time, he and I were just two children studying in the academy.

Time, it's never in a hurry, and people don't have time to be sentimental.

"Aren't you sleeping? It's almost dawn, huh? Cai Yu didn't know when he came in again, he was holding a tray in his hand, on which was a pot of tea, and two plates of dim sum, the fragrance of tea mixed with the fragrance of dim sum, it was really very tempting.

"You're weird, you've been idle all day, why are you still walking around?" I put down the fold in my hand, stood up, and took a piece of pastry from the tray in his hand and stuffed it into my mouth.

"There are two Buddhas at home, how can I sleep peacefully?" Cai Yu gave me a blank look and put the tray on the table.

"Thank you so much for bringing me supper." I smiled and picked up another piece of pastry and handed it to Du Rong, and poured him a cup of tea by the way.

Cai Yu shook his head, and waved his hand to let the subordinate outside the door bring a small porcelain white cup in front of me, "Your medicine is the most difficult and time-consuming, but it wasted a lot of my time." ”

My face froze, but I didn't say anything, I didn't say a word, I picked up the cup, "gurgling" a few times, and drank it to the bottom.

"It's unpleasant!" I conclude.

Cai Yu looked at me dumbfounded, almost not believing his eyes, "You...... You actually drank it all in one go? ”

If this had been placed in the past, it would not have happened at all, how afraid Shen Qingzhi was of drinking medicine, I am afraid that few people up and down the White Crane Academy did not know.

"The big war is coming, how can we afford to slacken?" My face was solemn, and there was a storm in my eyes.

Du Rong drank tea for a moment, and lowered his eyes slightly.

"Tsk, it's really rare to see you so excited!" Cai Yu couldn't help but stroke his palms and admire: "It seems that the world of Qinguo still has to be guarded by our prime minister." ”

I gladly accepted his compliment: "Visionary." ”

“......”

Cai Yu didn't bother to pay attention to me, waved his hand, yawned and left.

"It's really late." I looked at the sky outside, turned back to him and said, "You have a good rest, I'll go back to my room first." 123 Literary Network

Du Rong didn't speak.

I couldn't tell what was going on in his mind, so I just stared at him, not knowing what else to say.

"Little Green Branch." He held the white jade teacup with both hands, and suddenly called out to me.

I was stunned and looked up at him.

But he didn't look at me.

"In your eyes......" he paused for a moment before asking me, "am I also a rebellious minister and thief who has plagued the Qin Kingdom?" ”

I was stunned.

Nothing to say for a long time.

Du Rong smiled in a low voice, something passed under his eyes, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"I'm tired."

I paused, pursed my lips and turned back, and when I reached the door, I finally stopped.

"Du Rong, I have never been a qualified prime minister of Qinguo."

Du Rong was stunned, and looked up at me for a moment, but I had already slowly disappeared into the boundless night by the moonlight.

"Little Qingzhi ......" he muttered softly, and suddenly he laughed silently, just laughing and laughing, and tears fell in his eyes.

If you don't see each other again for the rest of your life, will you still think of me once in a while?

If...... If I push you one more step, will you never forgive me again?

He held the warmth in his hand tightly, and the whole person trembled almost invisibly.

The next day, under the dead vine trellises, apricot leaves flew.

I helped Du Rong sit down on the bamboo chair and casually covered him with a thick blanket.

"The sun is shining and the air is good." I sat down next to him, took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled again.

Du Rong looked at the early morning sunlight in the distance, smiled and nodded, "Today's day is indeed good." ”

"yes." I laughed, "By the way, what kind of story is the book you read last night?" How did it end? ”

Du Rong pondered for a while and replied, "As you said, this is about a matter of rivers and lakes, and the situation of rivers and lakes." The daughter of the leader of the martial arts alliance is young and playful, disguised as a man and roamed the rivers and lakes, and met many like-minded strange people and ghosts along the way, as well as old beggars begging for food on the roadside, as well as a merry son in a high hall and temple, and even among the children of ordinary people, there are many of her 'brothers'. ”

"However, it didn't take long for the smooth sailing days, and a major event occurred in the rivers and lakes, the Demon Sect invaded, and the martial arts were in danger. In order to destroy the Demon Sect, this young woman shouldered the heavy responsibility of her father, and after several twists and turns, she finally gathered the power of decency to break the Demon Sect and eliminate the remnants of the Demon Sect. ”

"As for the ending," Du Rong looked at me and smiled lightly, "She became the leader of the martial arts alliance, and by the way, she also found Ruyi Langjun." ”

I was a little uncomfortable by his strange eyes, and I hurriedly looked away...... It's just a book, and most of them end like this. ”

"Someone's life is even more legendary than this book!" Du Rong looked at me meaningfully, smiling like the wind.

My face flushed, and I didn't know how to answer.

"I ask you," I shrunk my sleeves, and my eyes fell silent slightly, "When you were in prison, did Cen Xi really come to look for you?" ”

Du Rong didn't expect me to take the initiative to mention this time, and he was stunned for a long time without answering.

"I thought about it carefully last night, you fell into the hands of the emperor, it is impossible for him not to take the opportunity to do something, just tell me, what did he say and did when he looked for you?" I took a deep breath and turned to look at him.

Seeing that I wanted to know so much, Du Rong was silent for a while, and asked me, "Qingzhi, do you think Princess Yuhe's death can escape the relationship?" ”

I was stunned.

"What...... Meaning? ”

"The sixth princess is the younger sister of the prince's mother, it is impossible for him not to know what harmony means to the sixth princess, but he has almost nothing to do in this matter, why?"

There was a momentary blankness in my gaze.

Du Rong didn't stop, and continued, "You and I both know that when the prince was in Jiangnan, he attracted a lot of people's hearts, and even Jia Chun, the governor of Jiangnan, had been taken into his pocket, so why did he still tolerate you going to Qi Country and bring the condensation branch to Gu Yuancheng, who was about to die?" ”

"And, if my guess is correct, you can't get out of the jungle alone, you don't know anything about that forbidden realm at all, did he give you something? Is it part of the map of the jungle? Why did he have this? Why give it to you? Why, did he want to save Gu Yuancheng? ”

"And the fact that he was captured by the Blood Alliance in Qi Country, don't you think there's something wrong?" Du Rong reminded me, "Qingzhi, I know that he is the person you are loyal to, but no matter how much you believe in him, you should leave some bottom lines, just in case, don't forget what you said, he is the emperor's family, and the people of the emperor's family are cold-blooded enough." ”

Du Rong's words exploded in my ears like thunder, and those things that I had been deliberately ignoring gradually surfaced from the bottom of my heart.

I was scared, but I had nowhere to hide.

Yes, I had long thought about why Cen Xi expected me to go to the Jungle so early, and what was his intention in giving me the Jungle Map? Is it just to save Cen Xi? Or did he actually know the hiding place of the Blood Alliance for a long time, and he didn't say it, just because the time hadn't come? But what does it have to do with me before the time comes?

And the fact that he was taken away by the Blood Alliance, did he really not know the ulterior motives of Princess Huizhong? He dared to stay alone in the Qi Palace, could he not be prepared at all, and let the Blood Alliance arrest people if they wanted to? Can he really do whatever the Blood Alliance wants to do to him? The Blood Alliance didn't hurt him in the slightest, and was it really just luck, or was the people of the Blood Alliance kind?

There were so many things to do, and he stood in front of me and pushed me into his trap with great ease.
