"When will he let Master come back?"

"I don't know, maybe I'll wait until this war is over."

"Did the master come back with a message, how was he doing there, and did the emperor embarrass him? Are we really going to let Master go under house arrest and have nothing to do? ”

"I once asked Xuediao to go to the palace to find the master, and the master replied with a letter, asking us to listen to Uncle Su's command and not act rashly, the emperor respects him, and he has Zhu Yan there to take good care of him. He could come back at any time if he wanted to, and the reason why he stayed there was only to reassure the emperor. ”

The salute is because the Double Holy Gate recaptured the city for him, if the Double Holy Gate can't hold the city in the future and is defeated, what will he do to the master. The Son of Heaven is suspicious, and thinking about it makes people feel cold.

The two were silent for a long time before Xiao Xinyi asked, "How did you and Master keep Senior Sister?" ”

"Master used half of his internal strength."

Zhong Yuan's voice came after a long time, with an ethereal coldness and imperceptible guilt.

"What."

Xiao Xinyi couldn't believe it, she thought about many possibilities, but she didn't think that Su Yuexian's life was exchanged for half of Sima Zhengqing's internal strength. Her master turned around and went to the palace after he had just lost half of his internal strength, but in exchange for the emperor's confinement. Xiao Xinyi covered his mouth tightly, saluted Zhong Yuan and hurriedly left. She didn't go back to her yard and went straight to the medicine store, and found a book that recorded the forced output of internal force, she remembered reading this book, which clearly recorded that "those who forcibly deplete the internal force of the dantian cannot be recovered, and all five organs are injured and six veins are damaged." Xiao Xinyi tearfully went through almost all the books on the records of internal forces, and the answers he got were always the same. What made her happy was that she finally saw a record of losing half of the internal force in a book, "Those who forcibly lose half of the internal strength of the dantian have reduced their strength and age rapidly, the young are white-headed, and the old are dazzled and deaf." Seeing this, Xiao Xinyi eased up, but her skills had decreased and she was dazzled and deaf, and her master's life was fine.

can think of Sima Zhengqing's childish appearance on weekdays, Xiao Xinyi still couldn't hold back the tears in her eyes, she hadn't seen him for a few months, and she didn't know what he would look like when she saw him again.

When she said goodbye, she would stay by the deaf and dazzling master and take care of him for the rest of his life.

It snowed that night, at first it was only sporadic snowflakes, and then it became bigger and bigger, and it didn't stop until Chinese New Year's Eve, and the disciples in the Double Holy Gate posted couplets and hung lanterns as in previous years, but there were only a dozen disciples left in the door, and the Chinese New Year's Eve meal was deserted, and Ling Feng, who had no Sima Zhengqing, seemed to suddenly have no sense of home, leaving only a group of orphans to fend for themselves.

Xiao Xinyi and Qin Youyou kept the New Year together in Su Yue's fairy room that night, Ling Mo was attracted by the story under the mountain told by Qin Youyou, and when he passed the time, he also pulled her to let her finish it, Qin Youyou had to accompany Ling Mo to her room to continue telling the story. Xiao Xinyi had no choice but to step on the ankle-deep snow to go back to the yard by herself, and before she entered the room, she was hugged in her arms, and the long-lost breath surrounded her instantly with the cold air of the snowy night, and before she could react, a warmth instantly hit her lips. The room is snowy outside, and the room is full of spring. After Zhuge Qinghong was satisfied, Xiao Xinyi, who was almost suffocated, could only wrap his arms around his neck to make himself stand firm.

"When did you come?"

"Shortly after arriving."

"Uncle knows?"

"My father asked me to come." Xiao Xinyi didn't speak yet, only heard Zhuge Qinghong say again: "I want to come myself." ”

Xiao Xinyi didn't speak, just put his hands down and hugged Zhuge Qinghong's waist, very hard, very hard. It took a long time for the two to separate, Xiao Xinyi lit the oil lamp on the table to see Zhuge Qinghong's appearance clearly, the two have been at night every time they met since they separated from Ling Feng, although there was a charcoal fire shining on it, they could only see the outline, and now they can finally light the lamp and look at each other carefully.

"Ah Yin, you've lost weight and become dark." Xiao Xinyi's hand swept over Zhuge Qinghong's sunken eye sockets, and he was distressed.

"I am tormented by longing day and night, can I not lose weight." Zhuge Qinghong looked at Xiao Xinyi with a smile.

Although Xiao Xinyi was not very accustomed to Zhuge Qinghong's ambiguous tone, he was still sweet and sweet in his heart. She actually likes such Zhuge Qinghong very much, and he is a high-spirited and unrestrained young man.

Zhuge Qinghong sat on the edge of the couch, Xiao Xinyi was covered with a quilt on the couch and fell on his knees to listen to him talk a lot, many Xiao Xinyi couldn't remember what he said, and fell asleep in a daze, when he woke up, the charcoal in the brazier was burning, and there was no shadow of Zhuge Qinghong beside her, but there was a red embroidered money bag next to the pillow, which was full of copper plates, Xiao Xinyi was stunned, and then laughed softly.

When she was a child, she was naughty, and every time she asked Zhuge Qinghong for New Year's money, every time the little boy who was two years older than her would hand over all the New Year's money she received to her with a bitter face.

It turns out that he still remembers this incident all along.

On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, news came from the bottom of the mountain that the Falling Moon Army gathered a large number of troops and set off towards Jianhe County. A heavy snowfall a year ago was undoubtedly a lifesaver for the affected areas, and as the weather warms up and the land in the arid areas is moistened, the disaster will be relieved, and if there are a few more spring rains, the disaster will be solved. At that time, the victims who rebelled with the Falling Moon Army will no longer be as determined as they were at the beginning. If there are people who leave, it will inevitably affect morale. The Falling Moon Army wants to take Jianhe County before the beginning of spring, Jianhe County is the only way to the imperial city, and everyone who takes Jianhe County has no way to retreat.

When Xiao Xinyi rushed back to Jianhe County, the Falling Moon Army had already assembled, and standing on the city wall, he could see the crowd outside the East City Gate. At that time, the wind frightened Hu Guyue and the disciples of the Double Holy Gate in other cities and counties were also rushing to Jianhe County. A big war is on the verge of breaking out.

The Falling Moon Army had set up camp in a mountain sixty miles outside the city, and it seemed that they were indeed preparing for the siege of the city.

Although Xiao Xinyi's eyesight is not as good as ordinary people, she still saw Zhuge Qinghong in pitch-black armor among the few people not far outside the city, he was so tall and heroic in armor, as if he was born for armor.

Zhuge Qinghong seemed to feel something, and when he was looking down to talk to others, he suddenly turned his head to look at the city wall, just saw Xiao Xinyi's gaze towards him, he frowned and didn't say a word just looked fixedly, Hua Rujiang on the side also saw Xiao Xinyi with his gaze, he wanted to wave his hand to say hello, but then thought of the identity of the two at this time, and raised half of the hand to change the direction and put it on Zhuge Qinghong's shoulder, today he also wore a suit of armor, but unlike Zhuge Qinghong, his armor is snowy, and coquettish at first glance. However, this bright color called his eyebrows and eyes handsome, much more pleasing to the eye than his purple clothes.
