Zhou Xuan couldn't let Xiahou Tassel leave like this, and said: "Tassel, wait a minute, I have something very important to tell you, come with me-" As he spoke, he turned the horse's head and walked north against the tributary of the Min River.

Xiahou Tassel looked at Zhou Xuan's steep back on the horse, that was the heart of the heart, where was the ruthlessness to turn around and leave! With a soft sigh, he rode the "Black Rose" to follow.

The two of them went up the river one after the other, and traveled about five or six miles, Zhou Xuan didn't speak, and Xiahou Tassel didn't know what to say, just now she was hot, and said loudly in front of her father that she liked Zhou Xuan and wanted to marry Zhou Xuan, but now that she thinks about it, it is really impossible, she loves Zhou Xuan very much, but if she wants to leave her father and go with Zhou Xuan, then she can't do it, because in this case, her father will be heavily responsible for Chen Duhu, and even death is unpredictable, and with her father's temperament, it is impossible to betray Chen Duhu and follow Zhou Xuan to Tang Kingdom.

Zhou Xuan looked back at Xiahou Tassel and said with a smile: "Tassel, are you worried about your father?" ”

Xiahou Tassel nodded.

Zhou Xuan asked: "Will the tassel regret helping me?" ”

Xiahou Tassel shook his head: "Never regret it." ”

Zhou Xuan asked, "Then what are you going to do now?" ”

Xiahou Tassel shook his head gloomily and said softly: "Tassel will return to Daddy and accompany Daddy." ”

Zhou Xuan said: "If you let me and Pan Yujiao go, Chen Si'an will never spare you, and your father will also be implicated, so how can I feel at ease?" Tassel, I said I wanted to make your life safe, and I must do it. ”

A sad smile appeared on Xiahou Tassel's haggard face: "Thank you, Childe, being with Childe is the happiest time in Tassel's life." ”

Zhou Xuan smiled: "Tassel, don't be so sad, there is no happiness, only happier, I want you to be with me, your father and the two of us serve together." Wouldn't it be good? ”

Xiahou's tasseled eyes flashed with a blazing look, like a meteor crossing the night sky, fleeting, shaking his head and smiling bitterly: "Childe, it's impossible, my father is very stubborn." ”

Zhou Xuan said: "There is nothing impossible in this world, let me deal with it." The song ends elegantly, there will be a happy ending, tassel, do you believe me? ”

"I believe it!" Xiahou Tassel nodded solemnly, although she and Zhou Xuan had only been together for a few months. But I haven't seen Zhou Xuan suffer, Xuanzhou, Xinzhou, all the way, it is not smooth sailing anywhere, this is mainly because of his resourcefulness. Well, maybe that time outside the town of Mahuiling, she heard that she was plotting to deal with Chen Si'an's land protection, which was the only mistake of the child.

Zhou Xuan said: "Believe that I will be happy!" Tassel, don't worry about it for the time being, leave it to me to deal with, I am a responsible man, and I will never let your father and daughter suffer for me - tassels, we are rarely together, even if the Ming Dynasty wants to be its own master and go its own way, but tonight. I want to see the tassels flashing with eyelashes and a smile. That's really fascinating. ”

When Xiahou Tassel heard it, he was ashamed and happy, and his fine eyelashes fanned involuntarily, smiling shamefully, and it was gorgeous for a while.

There was a "squeak" sound from the river in front of me, as if an ox cart was tirelessly moving, looking up. But it was a water mill that kept turning with the help of the current. The water mill is a mill, and there is ***.

Zhou Xuan said: "Tassels." Let's go ask for a glass of water and see if we can spend the night. ”

Xiahou Tassel's heart trembled, his face couldn't help but turn red, but deep in his heart there was a restless longing, and he let out a low "um".

There are three wooden houses in the mill, the one on the right is a rice bowl with a machine water mill, a thin old man is licking rice, several baskets of millet are placed on the side, four stone pestles are lifted and smashed down with the help of water power, one after another, the aroma of rice bran is permeated in the mill.

Zhou Xuan knocked on the door, claiming to be a wealthy son who was lost in the autumn hunt in Fuzhou City, and wanted to stay here for one night.

One of the two people who didn't notice the thin old man came was a woman, and said: "Little old man is going to scoop these four loads of millet tonight, and he has no time to sleep, and the two sons go to the house on the left to rest, there is tea, there is no food, only some green pears, if the two do not dislike it, although they eat, it is not strange to be sluggish." ”

Zhou Xuan said: "Thank you old man. Tie the horse under the camphor tree in front of the mill, and enter the room on the left with the Xiahou tassel, only to see a bamboo couch, a low table, on the low table there is a black Ou porcelain teapot, two tea cups, a few small fist-sized green pears scattered in the corner of the low table.

Zhou Xuan picked up the teapot and poured the two teacups full, his nose was ** twice, and he said with a smile: "This old man pours good tea, this is Jianzhou Beiyuan tea, no matter how thirsty you are, don't be in a hurry, taste it slowly." ”

Xiahou tassel said "um", raised the lamp and slowly sighed, although it was herbal tea, but the fragrance of tea still made her mouth linger, with a refreshing feeling, she couldn't help but think of Zhou Xuan's tea fight in Shezhou, and asked with a smile: "Childe, did that Zeng Daqian send silver later?" His Huangshan tea has been tasted by the son, and the price of tea has increased several times! ”

Zhou Xuan said with a smile: "Not yet, let Laifu go to collect debts in March next year, Laifu should still be building Yizhuang and Academy in Xinzhou now, and will return to Jiangzhou at the end of the year." ”

Laifu, cumin, the three idiot couple, as well as the Jingyi fairy and Lin Hanyun sisters...... That vivid image in Xiahou tassel heart swept by, from Xuanzhou to Jiangzhou thousands of miles of journey, all kinds of amazing, gratifying, ridiculous, lovely experience, bit by bit into the heart, in the dead of night, Xiahou tassel in the bottom of the heart over and over again recalled that unforgettable journey, and now, the person she misses the most is by her side, with her toast to drink tea, this scene is like a dream.

Xiahou Tassel couldn't help but reach out and hold Zhou Xuan's hand, staring at Zhou Xuan without blinking, for fear that Zhou Xuan would disappear in the blink of an eye, it turned out to be a dream.

Zhou Xuan scratched her palm and smiled: "Don't worry, it's not a dream, just blink." ”

Xiahou tassel blushed on his cheeks, and said in his heart: "Childe can see through my thoughts." Withdrew his hand, pulled out the short knife on his waist, took out a silk handkerchief and wiped the blade, grabbed a green-skinned pear and peeled it, with high martial arts and skillful hands, he cut one in a blink of an eye, handed it to Zhou Xuan, took another pear, slowly peeled it, lowered his eyebrows and asked: "Childe, the tassel said goodbye that night, doesn't Childe really blame the tassel?" ”

Zhou Xuan chewed the pear "crunched", and asked inarticulately: "What do you think about the tassel?" ”

Xiahou Tassel smiled and stopped asking about it, but asked: "Childe, can you fill in half of the words that night later?" As he spoke, he sang softly: "Ice muscles and jade bones, cool and sweat-free - people have not slept, and the pillow hairpin is messy." Get up with your hands, the courtyard is silent, and you see the sparse stars and the river from time to time. How was the night? It's been three watches in the night, the golden wave is light, and the jade rope turns low-"

Zhou Xuan smiled: "Tassel, do you often sing my poems?" Your father said that the red lotus incense remnants of the jade in the autumn, lightly dissolve Luo Shang, and it is an obscene song to go to Lanzhou alone, fortunately I explained that there are several layers of clothes in Luo Shang, not bare, otherwise your father will stab me to death with a spear! ”

Xiahou tassel smiled, peeled a pear, ate it in small bites, and said, "Childe, let's go outside, shall we?" ”

Zhou Xuan asked, "Aren't you tired?" Don't want to rest sooner? ”

Xiahou Tassel blushed: "I'm a little tired, but I don't want to sleep, my heart is jumping." ”

Zhou Xuan said: "Well, that's the spring heartbeat. ”

Xiahou Tassel was ashamed, walked out quickly, and when he heard Zhou Xuan follow, his heart was beating like a deer, and he said in a panic: "I want to wash my hands." "I looked back and forth, and there were several stone steps leading to the water's edge by the mill, and I went down to the bottom level, where the river was already in line with the stone steps.

Zhou Xuan also walked down, washed his hands together, washed his face again, and said: "This water is a little cold, otherwise I really want to swim in the water, I swam in a small pool in Lushan before the Mid-Autumn Festival last year, the water was too cold, and then I fell seriously ill." ”

The two of them sat side by side on the stone steps, took off their boots and cloth socks, and soaked their feet in the water, which was cool and comfortable.

There should be a lot of osmanthus trees on the shore not far away, and the fragrance came for a while, and the two people smelled the fragrance and snuggled together, as if they were drunk.

A bright moon hangs high in the sky, the river surface is fine, the silver snake is ten thousand ways, the sound of "squeaking" water is light and heavy, the water flows endlessly, and it does not stop.

Zhou Xuan rested one foot of Xiahou's tassel on his lap, stroked her bare calf, snow-white, firm, slender, and her skin was as delicate as condensed cold jade, and said: "This is the ice muscle and jade bone - tassel, I have never intended to fill in the residual words, but tonight I have a poem, this word is filled in for the tassel, the tassel is by my side, I can continue it-

Xiahou Tassel leaned tightly against Zhou Xuan, overjoyed, and only listened to Zhou Xuan chanting:

"Ice muscles and jade bones, cool and sweat-free. The wind on the surface of the water is dark and fragrant. The embroidered curtain is opened, and a little bright moon peeps at people. People have not slept, and the pillow hairpin is messy. But when will the west wind come? No, he secretly changed it in the past few years. ”

Xiahou tassel felt the context of the words, and was intoxicated for a while, leaning her head on Zhou Xuan's shoulder, listening to the "squeak" sound of the water mill, it was very reassuring, as if Zhou Xuan was there, she could put down anything, open anything, relax, relax, she fell asleep.

Zhou Xuan tilted his head sideways, looking at Xiahou's tassel sweet sleeping appearance, covered with long eyelashes, motionless like a tired butterfly, only occasionally trembling as if frightened, it was really cute!
