Lan Xi'er clenched the flare in her hand, sat back by the campfire, curled up her legs, and looked at the flames, her eyes straight. After a long silence, he slowly spoke:

"If we let this out, someone will come and save us."

Yue Tuo walked over to her and sat down, picked up a wooden stick, stirred the bonfire, sighed softly, and nodded slightly.

"The capital class should be nearby, send out the signal, and we should be found in an hour." Yue Tuo was also stunned as he watched the flames sway, and his face lost the charm just now.

"Will it attract pursuers?" Lan Xi'er looked at Yue Tuo, and she didn't know whether she wanted him to nod or shake her head.

Yue Tuo turned his head to look at her, a pity rose in his eyes, and after being stunned for a moment, he finally shook his head lightly.

Lan Xi'er took a deep breath, although her hanging heart fell, but a trace of sadness welled up in her eyes, she raised her eyes and looked at the sky and the forest, even though the sky and the earth were big, there was no place for her to stay after all, and said leisurely: "So, we can go back a long time ago." When we fled into the deep forest, I heard the sound of two forces fighting each other, and it must have been my cousin's rescuer. ”

Yue Tuo snorted softly, his eyes were cold and helpless.

"Why?" Lan Xi'er turned her head and looked at Yue Tuo.

Yue Tuo took a deep breath, got up and stood in front of Lan Xi'er, squatted down again, and looked at her with a serious and serious expression.

"Xi'er, if you want to leave, I'll let you go."

"Let me go?" Lan Xi'er looked at Yue Tuo in disbelief, and her heart began to get nervous again, but the person was still repeating what he said in a daze.

"Yes, the ends of the earth, wherever you want to go, it's up to you." Yue Tuo suddenly clenched her arms with both hands, and Lan Xi'er felt a force slowly infuse into her body. made her lost soul a little lighter. Just a quick wry smile. A stream of tears welled up in his eyes. sniffed.

"Let me go, then how are you going to explain to my mother? How to explain to Guo Luomafa? ”

Yue Tuo saw that her eyes were wet, and his heart was moved. With a firm face, he said:

"Xi'er, these are my business, I'll face them. I just hope that you can live well, with a smile, with a smile, and a good life. ”

"Brother Yueto."

The tears in Lan Xi'er's eyes finally flowed out. It's been five years, and his coldness has made her heart colder and colder. I couldn't understand him, I couldn't see through him, and the brother Yue Tuo who protected her and spoiled her disappeared abruptly. But yesterday, when I was at the post station, I reappeared.

At this title, Yue Tuo was also moved. Five years ago, when he resolutely went the other way, he knew that he would say goodbye to this title forever. He had tried hard to convince himself that she was just his little cousin, but year after year, as he got farther and farther away from her, his heart grew colder and colder, and his whole world lost all its warmth.

A loud sound swept through the air, and both of them were interrupted.

"That's a signal from my cousin."

Before Yue Tuo could reply, Lan Xi'er smiled indifferently, gently broke away from Yue Tuo's hands, opened the signal flare in his hand, and responded to the signal just now.

"Xi'er." Yue Tuo looked at her in shock. The smile that was vague hurt Yue Tuo's heart, just like she lost her vitality on the way when she came.

"Brother Yuetuo, I have received your heart. We don't belong to each other at all, we can't be the master, let's go back. ”

The sound flashed, and although it left a trace, it quickly disappeared, just like yesterday's night, no matter how fierce and dangerous it was, but in this huge forest, it was difficult to discern the direction, and it was difficult to find the trace. Lan Xi'er's smile gradually retracted.

The capital class really lived up to expectations, and found them in less than an hour.

"Well, you're both alright." Seeing that the two of them were in tattered clothes and wet, they hurriedly ran over to check.

Lan Xi'er was suddenly looked at by him, frowned, and unconsciously stood behind Yue Tuo.

"It's okay, it's okay, what can happen." Yue Tuo was already bored in his heart, but suddenly heard his noise, blocked in front of Lan Xi'er, and shouted loudly. took the reins handed by Sony, led the horse, helped Lan Xi'er onto his horse, and sat behind her, ready to leave the forest.

Seeing that these two people were so intimate, they smiled evilly, hurriedly rode on their horses, followed them, and did not forget to joke:

"I thought you wouldn't want to go out of the forest for the rest of your life."

Yue Tuo didn't care, glanced at Du Class, and suddenly asked seriously, "How is Tieling?" ”

"Naturally, I took it." It was all an understatement, but Lan Xi'er looked at the two of them with surprise on her face.

"Uncle Nine didn't say anything." Yue Tuo snorted softly.

"The oil and water that sends relatives can be compared to those who attack cities and conquer cities, and there are benefits for him, why don't he do it."

"Don't disturb the people." Yue Tuo suddenly said sharply.

"Don't worry, even those corrupt officials are enough for him."

Yue Tuo relieved his expression and nodded.

"This Tieling is also considered an important land, I thought I would have to fight bloodily, but I didn't expect it to be as you expected, vulnerable."

"Their forces should be brought back soon, and if we hold out for three days, Amma should be there."

As soon as these words came out, it was the turn of the people who were full of surprise, even if there were rescuers, it would not be a three-day journey from Hetuala to here, and it seemed that this kid Yue Tuo had already made the idea of Tieling. Shouting loudly:

"How much more do you have to hide from us?"

Yue Tuo ignored him anymore, and rode his horse and whipped Lan Xi'er away.

Du Zhi looked at the back, and there was a smile on his face, Yue Tuo's Fu Jin and Big Brother passed away a year ago, and Yue Tuo, who was cold and silent, lost his only remaining enthusiasm for the world, and there was no more temperature in the life of the day.

However, after the calculations of several of them, when Yue Qi was rescued and did not go to kiss, Lan Xi'er was involved in rumors, Du Du and Guohuan, the two emperors and grandsons, fought to marry Lan Xi'er as a blessing, which was definitely a reverse scale in the eyes of the Han Dynasty, and naturally no one dared to move, and it was not an exaggeration to give Lan Xi'er a small life. seems to have escaped a catastrophe, but who doesn't know that harmony is another sea of suffering.

Yue Tuo changed his previous composure, the whole person fell into anger and worry, and finally he was desperate to save people single-handedly, at this moment, looking at his back as he walked farther and farther, he nodded with satisfaction, very good, really good.

"Why isn't Gege awake yet?" Yue Tuo's cold voice can always give people an invisible pressure. There was a rare tenderness in his eyes, looking at the sleeping Lan Xi'er, waiting for the doctor's reply. Guarding the city of Tieling, just two days ago, Lan Xi'er fell ill and started a fever.

"Yue Tuotaiji rest assured, Gege is infected with wind and cold, so he has a fever, and he has been frightened a lot before, among the medicines prescribed by Weichen, there are not only antipyretic, but also some soothing, so it is easy to snooze, and now that the heat has subsided, Weichen will reduce the calming medicine again, and he should wake up later."

Yue Tuo nodded lightly and stopped talking. Du Zhi sent the doctor away, saw that Yue Tuo was still staring at Lan Xi'er, and patted Yue Tuo's shoulder.

"Don't worry, the doctor didn't say it, it's not a big deal. It's useless for you to stay here, Zilharan has arrived, and he should have brought Amma's instructions, and we should also reorganize our army and prepare for the next step. ”

Yue Tuo hummed lightly, raised his hand to tighten the quilt for Lan Xi'er, instructed Su Ya a few words, and walked out of the house with Du Ya.

"What's the matter, it's been so long." Yue Tuo and Du Zhi, who had just entered, heard Zilharang's impatient shouting.

"Where's Amma?" Yue Tuo knew that Amma's soldiers were the main force.

"The prince is outside the city, and the prince means to let the soldiers stay in Tieling, and the rest of the troops will make other plans. I have brought a team of men and horses, enough to hold Tieling, you two put your troops and horses in order, and we will go to meet the prince tomorrow. ”

"Tomorrow?" Yue Tuo looked up at Zilharang and frowned.

"What's going on tomorrow? Any questions? The two of you won Tieling this time, but you have made great contributions, but we have not gained an inch of land, and we have not made an inch. I'm too slow tomorrow. ”

Yue Tuo and Du Zhi ignored Ji'er Harang, and looked at each other, their faces gloomy. Zilharang felt that there was a difference in the faces of the two. Hurriedly asked, "What's the matter, you two don't have the right faces, nothing will happen." Oh, by the way, what about Xi'er? Xi'er is okay, Dahan and the third sister both instructed to bring it back unscathed. ”

"Take it back?" Yue Tuo and Du Xiang spoke in unison, and looked at Zilharang with a look of surprise.

"That's right, take it back, the third sister is still waiting for her baby daughter to go back." Zilharang couldn't understand the surprise of the two.

"How can this be done...... Yue Tuo said in a hurry. There was tension and dissatisfaction in his eyes.

Du Zhi pushed Yue Tuo to the side, and asked cautiously, "Do you still want to take her on the expedition?" ”

Yue Tuo raised his eyes to look at Du Class, took a breath, and finally eased his emotions.

"What do you mean, don't sue me for being gone. I can't afford to mess with the third sister, and the big man also instructed him to bring it back unscathed. Zilharang watched the two of them stumble, and his heart panicked.

"What are you talking about, the two of us are here, and we can still lose Xi'er, so naturally we rescued it, but we suffered from the cold, took medicine, and rested in another room." Du Zhi glared at Ji'er Harang angrily, suddenly eased his mood again, glanced at Yue Tuo, and continued to ask Ji'er Harang: "Isn't this person meant to be married, how can he send it back." ”

"Hey, you both have taken down Tieling, who cares about the peace with the Han people, not only send it back, but the Han will also officially canonize Lan Xigege on the grounds that Gege lures the enemy to go deeper. Although it was called so before, after this canonization, he entered the royal jade butterfly. The third sister is very happy, she speaks to me kindly, just to let me send Gege back, can I not care. ”

"Lan Xigege." Yue Tuo muttered in his heart, but he became more and more uneasy, frowning, but he was helpless. Du Zhi looked at Yue Tuo worriedly. On the royal jade butterfly, it is used to kiss, this time it doesn't work, naturally it doesn't matter, and next time, the young Gege, and the kiss is not a chance.

"Assemble the army, and leave tomorrow." Yue Tuo coldly shook off a sentence and walked out of the house.

"Hey, you're waiting, what are you going to do, what should Lan Xi'er do? Are you going to take her with you? Du Zhi ran out of the house, leaving the unknown Zilharang to look alone.

"Brother Duojili is injured, let him protect Xi'er and go back."

Yue Tuo blinked, and he felt his coldness return.

"Gege, you're finally awake."

Looking at the elegant smile, Lan Xi'er subconsciously moved her body and tugged at the quilt.

"Gege, slow down, the doctor said you need to rest more." Seeing that Lan Xi'er was about to get up, Su Ya hurriedly supported her, set up a pillow with her other hand, leaned on the side of the bed, and helped Lan Xi'er to lean over.

"Plain."

"Yes, Gege, it's a slave."

"What kind of place is this?"

"Gege, we're still in Tieling City. When the master rescued Gege, he let the slave guard Gege. Su Ya saw that Lan Xi'er began to be stunned again, carefully pushed her, and said softly:

"Gege, you're hungry, you've been asleep for two days. The slave and maid will get you something to eat. ”

"Su Ya, where is Yue Tuo?" Lan Xi'er relieved herself, propped herself up, and grabbed Su Ya's arm, her eyes anxious and worried.

"Ye is fine, Ye should be in the city." Su Ya saw that Lan Xi'er suddenly had emotions, and she was shocked, and hurriedly comforted.

"Yo, wake up. What does my cousin think? You're finally awake. ”

"Su Ya please be safe for the master, and please say goodbye to Du Class Taiji."

"Su Ya, you are becoming more and more incapable of being an errand, you are waiting for the news of Gege's awakening, and you don't even report a letter."

Lan Xi'er heard Du Xiang's voice, frowned, raised her eyes and saw Yue Tuo walking in front, her delicate and handsome appearance, her bright eyes were a little warmer, Lan Xi'er's boredom was a little more soothing, looking at Yue Tuo without dodging, the two were looking for some emotions looming in each other's eyes, indescribable, inexplicable.

"Slaves deserve to die, slaves deserve to die." Su Ya was about to kneel down as she spoke, Lan Xi'er glared at Du Xiang angrily, and was about to speak, but she heard Yue Tuo's faint voice floating: "Go down, get some porridge for Gege." Su Ya said no more, saluted and hurried out of the house.

"It's good to wake up, the sixth uncle has already brought the news, the Han canonized you as Lan Xigege, when you are well, we will arrange for someone to send you back to Hetuara City, everything is over, you can take good care of your body, and wait to return to the city to be your Lan Xigege." Du Zhi sat casually on the chair next to the bed, crossed Erlang's legs, and then leaned over to carefully check Lan Xi'er's face.

"Back to Hetuala? Canonized Gege? Du Tuo said it lightly, but Lan Xi'er combed and sorted out the information he said, looked at Du Category in disbelief, and finally fixed his eyes on Yue Tuo.

Yue Tuo took a deep look at Lan Xi'er, and finally nodded, sat on the edge of the bed, and raised his hand to put his hand on Lan Xi'er's forehead: "The heat has subsided, and the body is still uncomfortable, I will ask the doctor to come and see it again, eat some porridge for a while, I haven't eaten for two days, don't eat too much." ”

After Yue Tuo finished speaking, seeing that Lan Xi'er still didn't react, he sighed lightly. He covered her with a quilt again, and said softly, "Tomorrow I will go on the expedition." I will ask Brother Duojili to send you back, and if you have anything to do, just look for him. ”

"Expedition? Where to go? Lan Xi'er finally came back to her senses and looked at Yue Tuo with wide eyes.

Looking at her clear eyes, Yue Tuo's heart moved, smiled softly, and said softly: "Go and meet Ama first." ”

Although he said that it was easy, there was nothing that was not dangerous when he set out on the expedition. Lan Xi'er's face was worried and nervous, and she lowered her head and bit her lip unconsciously.

"Listen to me, I will set off early tomorrow morning, since Marfa has decreed, let you go back, don't think too much, and go back to the city obediently. I'll talk about it when I get back. ”

"Wait for me to go back ......", Lan Xi'er was touched in her heart and raised her eyes to look at Yue Tuo. Seeing that his expression was firm and serious, he finally nodded infected.

"Anything else to tell me?" Yue Tuo breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and saw that Su Ya was already holding the porridge, and stood up to leave.

"Your injuries?" Lan Xi'er said and looked at Yue Tuo's arm.

"It's okay." Yue Tuo smiled slightly.

Lan Xi'er nodded with satisfaction, raised her eyes and looked at him with a straight face: "Poor Kou Mo chases." ”

Yue Tuo was moved and delighted, and the two looked at each other and smiled. Nodding his head, he walked out of the house.

Du Zhi looked at Yue Tuo with a playful expression, then at Lan Xi'er, stopped talking, and then left the house.

Just after the hour, the army departed. Lan Xi'er rode a horse and stood on the hillside not far away, watching the team slowly go out of the city, passing through thousands of heads, and at the front of the team, she found that familiar figure, dressed in red and white clothes. Although she was in the team, the back still made her feel lonely and even distressed.

Yue Tuo suddenly turned his head, and the gaze he cast, even if it was far away, caught Lan Xi'er off guard. When he saw that he had turned his horse's head, he stopped him with one hand, and did not know what to say. When Yue Tuo looked at her again, Lan Xi'er hurriedly shook her head. Motioned for Yue Tuo not to come over. Yue Tuoshen looked at her, and nodded after a moment. But the man remained where he was, letting others pass by.

Lan Xi'er smiled, shouted "take care", and finally raised her hand and whipped away. Looking at the blue cloak floating in the wind, but the people were drifting away, Yue Tuo couldn't help but feel sad from it, and with a pain in his heart, he also turned the horse's head and galloped away. Xi'er, this time, wait for me.

The sun hung on the horizon again, shining on the whole land, Lan Xi'er looked at the sky, her eyes became more and more wet, and sighed deeply, Lan Xigege, Gege on the royal jade butterfly, is this the end of this rumor. In the vigorous process, those who sacrificed for her, the fatal rumors caused by her, will it really be diluted like a dark night, who manipulated her fate, she really wants to ask, after these arrangements, did she finally get what she wanted?

In these days, the indifference of her relatives, the supremacy of imperial power, and the uncontrollable fate condensed into an invisible pressure that covered her heart, and she had no vitality or vitality. Helplessly hesitating, there was a fresh wooden vine, which appropriately pried open a gap, and the sunlight and air that spilled in gave her a chance to breathe, and at the same time turned out a long-sealed past, her heart ached faintly, and the person at the bottom of her heart gradually became clear.

The dust raised by the army as it walked by finally settled quietly, and looking at the emptiness in front of him, tears still broke through the last line of defense in his heart, and flowed slowly down his cheeks. I don't want to think about it anymore, whether I should be sad or happy, but Yue Tuo, if I say goodbye today, what can I wait for......
