When night fell, a waning moon hung in the sky, and the shadows of the moon were hidden in the treetops not far away, and the dim moonlight pulled the two figures on the eaves.

"Brother Wang, how are you going to settle your sister-in-law?"

Xuan Qi picked up the small porcelain altar in his hand and took a sip of wine, and only after a while did he speak: "Take it with you." ”

Xuan Yi was a little worried: "The march is dangerous, and my sister-in-law is just a daughter after all." ”

After hearing this, Xuan Qi chuckled and said, "Eleven, don't underestimate it, your sister-in-law is not a weak woman." ”

"Oh." Xuan Yi suddenly looked at the wine jar in Xuan Qi's hand, pursed his lips, and asked with an obsessive expression: "Brother Wang, is there a 'turbid sage' in the altar?" ”

"Yes."

"Can you let my brother taste it?" Xuan Yi's face was full of anticipation.

"No." Xuan Qi's tone was non-negotiable.

"Why?"

"Children should not drink alcohol."

"I'm almost sixteen." Xuan Yi looked reluctant.

"That's not going to work either."

"Stingy." Xuan Yi pouted dissatisfiedly.

Seeing his expression, Xuan Qi turned around, leaned lazily on the ridge of the roof, raised the wine jar and poured it into his mouth, laughed and shook his head, so shocked that Xuan Yi beside him couldn't believe that his brother Wang would laugh so happily.

……

Ji Qianning, who slept until nightfall, got up and didn't find Xuan Qi's figure, used up the food that Su Wei served, and then inquired about Xuan Qi's whereabouts, and found a tall building on the bank of Jinxi in the city. In the distance, I saw two familiar black figures.

She used her internal force, stretched out her arms and flew towards the tall building, in order to see Xuan Qi, she deliberately changed into the only women's clothes in the baggage.

A red dress fluttered in the night breeze, and after a while, he flew to the eaves.

The wind ruffled the green silk, blew the corners of the clothes, and the ring around the waist triggered a crisp sound, and the man in front of him looked a little obsessed.

Xuan Qi's eyes looked at the half of the jade pendant on her waist, the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously, he suddenly looked at Xuan Yi beside him, and his eyes clearly said, "What are you still doing here?" ”

Xuan Yi immediately understood, and reluctantly got up and saluted Ji Qianning to say goodbye: "Sister-in-law Wang, eleven won't bother you and Brother Wang, farewell." ”

Ji Qianning nodded slightly.

Waiting for Xuan Yi to disappear quickly, Ji Qianning slowly walked to Xuan Qi's side and sat on the roof.

Xuan Qi asked with concern, "I asked Su Wei to prepare a meal for you, have you ever used it?" ”

"Well, it tastes good."

"Your injuries?" His eyes were full of tenderness.

"Thanks to your medicine, it's all cured."

Xuan Qi smiled and handed her the wine jar in his hand, Ji Qianning took a quick sip, and asked happily, "Xun Xian?" ”

"Ning'er now knows 'Xunxian'."

Ji Qianning raised her head again, the wine went down her mouth, she gently wiped the corners of her mouth, and said with a smile: "You Chiyan is the most famous is this wine, how could I not know." ”

"It's a habit to drink."

"I'm fine, but my uncle thinks it's too strong."

Xuan Qi looked at her with a smile on his face.

Ji Qianning suddenly looked ahead, only to see the dim moonlight hitting the river not far away, sparkling, the smoke and waves were vast, all kinds of green aquatic plants floated with the waves, from time to time, a small boat lit with a fishing fire sailed by, startling a sand gull along the way.

"How nice it would be if the world were so happy." There was a trace of envy and expectation flowing in Ji Qianning's eyes.

"There will come a day." Xuan Qi looked ahead, his eyes firm.

Yes, the war will always end, and the land of Kyushu will finally usher in a peaceful and peaceful day.

Unconsciously, a jar of wine was drunk by Ji Qianning in one sip, and when Xuan Qi asked for it, there was not much left.

"Slow down, the wine of 'Xunxian' is too strong, you are easy to get drunk if you drink it like this, give it to me." Xuan Qi said, stretching out his hand.

Ji Qianning's cheeks were slightly red, as if she had been smeared with rouge, she shook the jar in her hand, and said with a smile: "It's okay, but that's all there is to it, it's not enough for one person to drink, I don't want to give it to you." After speaking, he pursed his lips and hugged him in his arms.

Xuan Qi pretended to be angry and said, "Ning'er, don't be like this, you forgot who gave you the wine?" ”

Ji Qianning suddenly stretched out her left index finger and pointed at him, smirking: "You, haha...... I won't give it unless, you grab it. ”

"Seriously." After Xuan Qi finished speaking, he rushed over and wanted to snatch it from Ji Qianning's hand.

Ji Qianning instinctively dodged backwards, but forgot that she was on the roof, her feet were unstable, and she was careless, her arms were conditionally stretched out, and she almost fell.

Xuan Qi's eyes were quick, and he took her in his arms, and her hands grabbed his arm tightly. The jar of wine slipped from his hand, rolled down with a clatter, and smashed a piece of tiles, falling and shattering to the ground.

At this time, the two of them could hear each other's heavy breathing closely, Ji Qianning's face turned even redder, and her heart was like a deer colliding.

Looking at each other, Xuan Qi stared at her face tightly, but he didn't expect her to be more cute after drinking, and he couldn't help but slowly approach her face for a while.

Ji Qianning's heart beat even more, her face was a little hot, and she hurriedly said, "Xuan Qi, I have something to ask you." ”

Xuan Qi stopped his movements, stared into her eyes and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Ji Qianning bit her lip, frowned and said, "Why do I pretend to be a man, but I am always recognized?" ”

Xuan Qi laughed, all her expressions at this time, he took all of them into his eyes, slowly approached her ear, and said softly: "There will not be a man as good-looking as you." ”

After he finished speaking, he kissed her lightly on the lips......

Night, quiet......

The next day, at dawn, the two armies lined up neatly on the school grounds.

Xuan Qi was dressed in military uniform, holding a sharp sword, standing in front of the two armies with a majestic expression, and Xuan Yi and Su Wei, who were also dressed in military uniforms, stood on either side of him.

"The soldiers have been assembled, please give orders to Your Highness." A man of about forty years, with a full beard and a righteous body, respectfully reported to Xuan Qi.

Xuan Qi hurriedly helped him bent down: "General Cheng doesn't have to be polite, this king will hand over this Ruofeng City to you." Xuan Qi's tone was less cold than usual, and a little more respectful.

"The minister will live up to His Highness's trust and swear to defend Ruofeng City to the death." General Cheng looked as determined as if he were at home.

Xuan Qi nodded with satisfaction, and then shouted inspiring words to the soldiers in front of him......

Ji Qianning, who was standing not far away, heard Xuan Qi's generous statement, and saw his extremely high prestige in the army, and couldn't help but think of treating him as a child of a prodigal family who had nothing to do, and couldn't help laughing at his own ridiculousness.

Just as she was sighing, Xuan Qi appeared beside her at some point, and when she saw him, her cheeks immediately flushed, and she looked shy, not daring to look him in the eyes.

The corners of Xuan Qi's mouth suddenly raised a smile, and he didn't say anything, and directly pulled Ji Qianning towards the tent.

"Did you sleep well last night?" Xuan Qi, who was walking in front, did not look back, and Ji Qianning did not see the evil smile on his face at this time.

"Huh?" Ji Qianning, who had been absent-minded all the way, suddenly reacted and hurriedly said, "There is no dream all night." ”

"Really?" The smile on Xuan Qi's face was even stronger, "I don't know who walked out of the big tent in the middle of the night and muttered to the moonlight." ”

Ji Qianning said in a panic: "You must have read it wrong. ”

"Oh." Xuan Qi deliberately lengthened his voice.

She suddenly thought of something, and immediately stopped in place, Xuan Qi couldn't pull the person behind her, and also stopped, and turned around, only to see her glaring at herself.

"Okay, you Xuanqi, you actually dare to peep at me." Her cheeks bulged.

Xuan Qi was amused by her even more: "Ning'er, who did you say to me?" I just unintentionally touched it, look at you, this is not self-defeating. ”

"Xuan Qi, you ......" The more Ji Qianning thought about it, the more angry she became, her face was flushed, and she was about to fight after Xuan Qi, Xuan Qi immediately ran forward when she saw the situation, and she chased after her.

Xuan Yi and Su Wei, who were not far away, were shocked when they saw such a scene.

After a while, Xuan Yi took the lead in speaking: "Su Wei, Fang Cai is the king's brother, isn't this king wrong?" ”

Su Wei stared at the front tightly: "Your Highness, you are not mistaken, it is the master." ”

"Then have you ever seen such a bright smile and a serious brother missing?"

"Very little."

"Hey......" The two shook their heads in unison.

Xuan Qi and Ji Qianning fought all the way back to the tent, while having fun, Xuan Qi suddenly grabbed Ji Qianning's hands and told her with a serious face: The army has not yet gathered, but the current situation is grim, and he can only leave Ruofeng City with less than a thousand Xuanjia troops to go to the front line. After a while, he took out a delicate wooden box and pulled out the contents of it.

"What is this?" Ji Qianning was a little surprised when she saw the object in Xuan Qi's hand.

"Ice Silkworm Soft Armor."

"But the legend has a strong defensive function, and the ice silkworm soft armor is invulnerable." When Ji Qianning saw this thing for the first time, she couldn't help but be a little excited.

"Exactly, this soft armor was given by my father before, there are no eyes on the road, and Ning'er you are wearing civilian clothes, it just so happens that I have always carried this thing with me, and now I can protect you for a while." Xuan Qi said, handing the soft armor to Ji Qianning's hand.

"How can I accept such a precious thing." Ji Qianning suddenly frowned.

"Ning'er, be obedient, no child's play on the battlefield, only in this way can I resist the enemy with peace of mind." Xuan Qi knew that only by saying these words could Ji Qianning accept it peacefully.

Ji Qianning hesitated for a moment, then nodded suddenly, her heart was full of emotion, no matter when, Xuan Qi always put her safety first, so he is worthy of doing anything for him in the future.

Suddenly, Xuan Yi's urging voice sounded outside the account, and when Ji Qianning put on the soft armor and came out, Xuan Qi immediately untied the saber at his waist, took her hand and put it on it: "Use it for self-defense." ”

Without waiting for Ji Qianning to refuse, he picked up her suit, took her other hand and walked out of the account, and joined Xuan Yi with the Xuanjia army waiting to set off.

Ji Qianning held the sword in her hand tightly, this was the second time that Xuan Qi handed over the innocent sword to herself, she suddenly laughed, and her heart was full of happiness.

……

The army left Ruofeng City and went all the way north, and the further north it went, the more desolate the scenery became.

After two or three days of walking, I saw that the mountain was getting lower and lower, and there were no dense woods, and only some dead branches grew laboriously in the cracks of the rocks. Along the way, there were withered vegetation, discarded chariots and horses, blood-stained weapons, and tattered helmets and armor. From time to time, several villages appeared, all of which were smoking, and all that had been destroyed by the war was a mess.

All this was shocking in Ji Qianning's eyes, as if she had returned to more than ten years ago, when she thought of Jingdu when she was a child, she suddenly slowed down the pace of the horse.

Others did not notice Ji Qianning's abnormality at this time. Xuan Yi found that Ji Qianning was not beside his brother Wang, so he immediately pulled the horse in parallel with Xuan Qi, and asked in a low voice: "Brother Wang, since this morning, every time my sister-in-law talks to you, she will unconsciously blush, I don't know why?" Xuan Yi smiled evilly.

Xuan Qi suddenly thought of the picture of kissing Ji Qianning in the moonlit night last night, and inadvertently raised the corners of his mouth.

Xuan Yi saw that he was silent and just smiled, and asked, "After I left last night, what happened." "All kinds of abnormalities between the two today, under the joint discussion of him and Su Wei, it came to the conclusion that the two must have done something indescribable last night.

Xuan Qi's face suddenly sank: "Eleven, what are the children's minds thinking. ”

Xuan Yi protested dissatisfiedly: "Brother Wang, I am nearly sixteen years old, why do you always call me a child?" Then he quickly put on a smiling face, "Brother Wang will tell me what happened last night, and I promise not to tell it." ”

"Itchy skin?"

Xuan Yi knew that as soon as these words came out, it was in vain to ask again, in order not to be on the verge of being beaten, he had to stop his curiosity, turned the horse's head, looked frustrated, walked in the direction of Su Wei, and shrugged his shoulders at Su Wei, making a helpless expression.

After a while, there was an anomaly ahead, and the neighing of horses and the shouting of people could be faintly heard.

Xuan Qi's right hand stopped in the air, and everyone immediately clenched their arms and stopped in place vigilantly.
