Chapter 18: Goodbye Yue'er (Part II)
Yu Wenxuan sighed lightly and took a sip of wine.
"Ouch, what's the pretense." Zhang Shaohua snatched the wine jar from Yu Wenxuan's hand and took a sip, "What kind of wine, let me taste it." ”
Yu Wenxuan held his chin with both hands and looked at the stars in the sky.
Tian Shaotu and Zhang Shaohua glanced at each other, and then followed Yu Wenxuan's example, and also looked up at the sky.
The three of them, none of them spoke, quietly doing the same action.
They are young but they are all in high positions, and the pressure can be imagined. Nowadays, between heaven and earth, under the sky, it is undoubtedly extremely luxurious to have such a good night to empty yourself and enjoy the moon and stars without distractions.
After a long time, seeing that the two friends didn't speak, Yu Wenxuan couldn't hold back a little, he was completely the kind of person who couldn't be quiet for too long.
"Why don't you two speak?" Yu Wenxuan looked left and right, and then asked.
"If you don't speak, how dare we speak." Zhang Shaohua joked.
After hesitating for a while, Yu Wenxuan spoke again.
"I want to tell you both something." Yu Wenxuan said very seriously, "You guys are my best friends, so ......"
Before he finished speaking, Tian Shaotu looked at Yu Wenxuan in surprise: "Did you drink too much or?" It's rare to see you once. ”
"Oh, listen to me." Yu Wenxuan cleared his throat, "You guys are my best friends, so I won't hide it from you." In fact...... Actually, I've always had a girl in my heart. ”
Speaking of this matter, Yu Wenxuan also thought about it for a long time and struggled for a long time. But in the end, I decided to tell my two friends.
Zhang Shaohua and Tian Shaotu's eyes widened, and they looked at Yu Wenxuan incredulously.
"When?"
"Whose girl? Do I know her? ”
"Why didn't you tell us that?"
……
After a brief period of surprise, there is a storm of questions. These questions were smashed at Yu Wenxuan one after another.
For the current situation, Yu Wenxuan had prepared in advance, but he never expected that in reality, their reaction would be much more radical than expected.
Just thinking about how to answer her friend's question, a shadow suddenly flashed in Yu Wenxuan's heart, petite and lovely, playful and cute, she jumped up and down beside him, calling "Brother Xuan, Brother Xuan." ”
"Ah......" Yu Wenxuan scratched his face with his index finger and said a little embarrassed, "That girl...... Actually, it's Princess Yue'er that we're going to pick up this time. ”
Zhang Shaohua and Tian Shaotu looked at Yu Wenxuan in amazement again, as if they had learned something shocking.
"Yue, Princess Yue'er?" Zhang Shaohua swallowed violently.
"Just this princess of Ryuji Province who might marry you?" Tian Shaotu was also shocked.
"Hmm!" Yu Wenxuan looked serious and nodded solemnly.
"Oh......" Zhang Shaohua deliberately stretched the tone very long, and the tone became very strange. looked at Yu Wenxuan with a wicked smile.
Tian Shaotu put his hand on Yu Wenxuan's back: "Explain." We definitely don't interject. Yes, Shaohua. ”
"Yes, yes, say it quickly." Zhang Shaohua leaned closer, looked at Yu Wenxuan excitedly and said.
Yu Wenxuan pretended to look at Zhang Shaohua and Tian Shaotu with disdain. However, the two of them still stared at themselves with great interest, and could even see the little stars in their eyes.
Yu Wenxuan brushed his thoughts, and then said, "Yue'er has come to our Da Zhou before, probably more than ten years ago. At that time, because I was the same age, I often played with her. Then the relationship became very good. When she was a child, she was indeed good-looking, lively and cute. I kind of like her. I also said that I wanted to marry her when I grew up, and she also said that she wanted to marry me when she grew up. But at that time, after all, they were all children, and they didn't understand love, love, or anything at all. And because of our respective identities, those so-called agreements may be just words. But it wasn't until she was going back to Ryuki later, including for a long time after she was gone, that I felt ...... It's quite uncomfortable. ”
Yu Wenxuan smiled, shy, bitter, but more embarrassed, he pulled his hands together with each other, and then recalled: "Later, after being separated for a long time, I am getting older, but her shadow in my heart is getting deeper and deeper. I didn't dare to tell my father, but I just told my brother quietly. As for what I didn't tell you later, it was because even if I did, it wouldn't be useful. But in my heart, I really like her. Even if so many years have passed. Speaking of which, I envy Shaohua, who can be with me and like to be with me all the time. ”
"Oh...... No wonder His Majesty asked you to pick her up personally this time. Zhang Shaohua suddenly realized, "Huh? In other words, you are still childhood sweethearts. ”
"Then since you like her, why don't you agree to Your Majesty?" Tian Shaotu asked puzzledly, "This kind of beautiful thing that is tied by a thousand miles of marriage is not something that can be encountered easily. ”
It's not that you don't want to, but you can't. If the monk said that I can't survive the robbery, wouldn't it ruin Yue'er's life. Rather than ending like this, it is better not to marry her from the beginning.
"As I just said, I'm afraid I'll die on the battlefield." Yu Wenxuan said with a strange expression.
Zhang Shaohua and Tian Shaotu both gave him a roll of the eyes, they knew Yu Wenxuan, and naturally knew that his words were excuses. As for the truth, if he doesn't say it, there is naturally a reason not to say it, maybe there is really something unspeakable. So I didn't ask anymore.
The two patted Yu Wenxuan's shoulder respectively and dropped the sentence, "It's not early, I'm going to sleep." "You also rest early and drink less." After that, they went back to their rooms.
Early the next morning, everyone said goodbye to Zhao Guangzhe, brought enough dry food and water, and hurried again.
Yu Wenxuan and his entourage arrived at Yumen Pass three days earlier than the time agreed with Liuji Kingdom. The Yumen guard Wang Lu came early to greet him. Because he didn't want to disturb the soldiers in Yumen Pass who were tasked with guarding the frontier, Yu Wenxuan refused Wang Lu's request to invite them into the city, and instead ordered him to prepare enough tents and food to come out and camp on the spot outside the city.
Three days later.
The sky was bright, Yu Wenxuan got up, and at this time he could still see the moon very clearly, and the firewood outside the camp tent had not yet burned out. He moved his muscles and bones as he looked towards the sky outside the gate.
Yue'er, I'm going to see you today. Do you know I'm here to pick you up?
"Why do you wake up so early?"
Yu Wenxuan turned back in the direction of the voice, it was Zhang Shaohua.
"You're up early, too." Yu Wenxuan walked over.
"Can't sleep?" Zhang Shaohua asked.
Yu Wenxuan nodded.
"Let's go, walk the horses." Zhang Shaohua proposed, and without waiting for Yu Wenxuan's reaction after speaking, he pulled him towards the place where the horse was tethered.
The two of them had no purpose or direction, and rode the dark clouds and snow and the jade unicorn all the way until the sun rose.
