Chapter 294: Beauty

The drizzle was sloppy, like a small raindrop with a broken line flying down to the shore of the neighborhood, and the stone bridge by the lake was hazy, like an ink painting, and it seemed to exist between the blurred smoke.

The thin rain stained the face, it was cold, the cold seeped into the skin through the clothes, and the people who knew the cold and the heat added clothes.

Holding out the oil-paper umbrella left by Side, Zhao Xian walked onto the broken bridge and looked at the slim figure in front of him. The light was dim, and the crystal raindrops hung in her hair bun and ears, reflecting the hazy bath fire in the distance, emitting a little crystal light. The water green Luo skirt is soaked by rain, like the lotus leaf in the vast plain color, with the cold wind and water sleeves swaying lightly, quiet and beautiful, it seems to be the only color on this pale broken bridge.

The rain overhead suddenly disappeared, and the sound of breathing came from behind him. Shen Yu squeezed his small fists, gritted his teeth and said, "You go back to Changzhou!" You care about your family, I want the world, you and I have different purposes, so don't embarrass me anymore. Thank you for your help last time, I don't blame you for what you did, and I don't mean anything else, you don't have to take this matter to heart. The paper umbrella stayed silently in the rain, the fine 'rustle' echoing in her ears, and she waited for a response, as if even time was much more viscous.

Zhao Xian smiled lightly and asked, "Miss Shen Yu, what did you mean by last time?" ”

Shen Yu was stunned for a moment, and then his face turned crimson, this bastard asked knowingly. After all, she was embarrassed to answer, so she snorted lightly: "If you don't remember the best, I have long forgotten!" ”

"Oh?!" Zhao Xian smiled and quipped: "I remembered!" Last time you forcibly took me into the woods, and you didn't say goodbye after eating and wiping them clean. This is a matter of honor to my name. How can you not take it to heart, you haven't compensated me yet. ”

Shen Yu's beautiful cheeks froze, she turned around and stared at Zhao Xian, with a flame in her eyes: "Don't be hippie and smiley, I, Shen Yu, don't rarely like your kind of charity care." Don't you doubt me? I'm far away from you, and I haven't disturbed your quiet and peaceful life, what do you want me to do? ”

Zhao Xian touched his nose, and his heart suddenly had mixed feelings, and he touched his nose and said helplessly: "I used to doubt you, but people always make mistakes..."

Shen Yuxiang's shoulders trembled slightly. interrupted him and said, "You have been confused for more than a day or two. Even if you understand it now, everything is over. She turned her head, the resentment in her eyes still existed, but it was a pity that the lingering charm in her mind made her unable to calm down.

The scene cooled down. Both of them were silent for a moment. Only thin rains fall on the oil-paper umbrellas. Make a subtle sound.

Shen Yu's eyes kept drifting, always paying attention to the movements behind him, and there was a little complexity in the depths of his beautiful eyes. Several times I wanted to walk away. But I endured it for some reason.

Zhao Xian knew that she resented her suspicion and use, and he had no choice but to do it at the beginning, if he could stay out of the matter, how could he be willing to make such a fuss.

Just outside the city, from the hidden arrow that flew to remind him of the fraud ahead, Zhao Xian saw that she was very entangled in her heart, she didn't want to see herself, and she didn't want to send herself to death. If it weren't for Shen Lingshan, she probably wouldn't show up.

Zhao Xian thought for a moment, and always felt that such a cold scene was not the way, so he checked the topic and said, "Miss Shen Yu, what are you doing in Hangzhou?" ”

The voice finally came from behind, Shen Yu was silent for a while, and then said lightly: "King Xian intends to raise troops to restore the Great Liang River, it is when there is a lack of talents and soldiers, my father and the old ministers left by the previous dynasty are all thrown into his disciples, I, as the former queen, escaped from your clutches, and naturally want to take refuge in his door." ”

In Kyoto, Shen Yu followed Zhao Xian on the grounds that he was forced to occupy by Zhao Xian's force, and now the two broke up unhappily, so they naturally wanted to escape from his clutches. It's just that there was a bit of a joke in this, Shen Yu's originally cold little face blushed, and he looked away as if he didn't pay attention.

Zhao Xian couldn't help frowning when he heard this: "King Xian succumbed to a corner of the south of the Yangtze River, even if he collected the rest of the old department of the Great Liang, how could he compete with the Northern Qi, but it was just a matter of killing and killing the people." ”

Hearing this, Shen Yu was a little serious: "Don't be small King Xian, the fall of the Great Liang represents the rise of the Northern Qi Dynasty, and the most nervous thing is that Goryeo Dongying and the Nanyang Kingdoms, losing the last barrier of the Great Liang, they will become the bag of the Northern Qi sooner or later." King Xian has sent envoys to the countries to make peace and form an anti-Qi alliance. And as long as you are caught, in order to ensure that the incense is not extinguished, An Guogong will definitely go out of the mountain to assist King Xian, and the prestige accumulated in the An family era is still there, and the divided generals will only be able to reorganize in a few days, and there is no power to fight. ”

Zhao Xian laughed when he heard this: "Are you stupid when you are a fool of the Nanyang countries?" The prosperity of the shipbuilding industry in the Northern Qi Dynasty even shocked me, the girder has been destroyed, and they don't even need to go forward with all their strength to pacify them. The Nanyang countries did not go to Chang'an to bow down, but instead formed an alliance to join King Xian to support him to restore the country, why did King Xian let them help? ”

Speaking of family and country affairs, Shen Yu put aside the personal affairs of his children first, giggled a few times, and snorted softly: "Who said that all countries took refuge in the virtuous king?" He has no soldiers and no power, and he can't suppress the Nanyang countries with the prestige of the previous dynasty alone. At present, the most powerful in the surrounding states is Dongying, imitating the military industry of the Northern Qi Dynasty and studying the art of war of the Great Liang, which can be said to be the best of the two families. Now that his lips are dead and his teeth are cold, Dongying responded to King Xian's call, formed a brotherly alliance, and took the area around Songjiang Mansion as a base to command the armies of all countries to help King Xian restore the country......"

"What?!" Zhao Xian was furious, and Fang Cai's charming mood was gone. What is the alliance of brothers to help King Xian restore the country, it is clear that it is logical to garrison troops in the south of the Yangtze River, taking advantage of the unstable foothold of the Northern Qi Dynasty, to come to Daliang to get a piece of the pie, really blocking the Northern Qi, how can Dongying tear the army away.

Zhao Xian already knew about the ambition of the wolf son at the beginning of this year, but he didn't expect that King Xian would beg for such a covenant of loss of power and humiliation of the country. He angrily rebuked: "What a fool! Qi and Liang are in the same vein, even if the world changes hands, it will not harm the people, in order to hold the glory and wealth, how can you collude with Fanbang, Jiangnan is all divided by the Nanyang countries, and the lives of the people are miserable, what is the point of his restoration of the country? ”

I saw that the veins on his forehead were bursting up, and his eyes seemed to be murderous. Shen Yu actually had a few fears, bit his lower lip, and said angrily: "What are you fierce to me?" It's not my idea......" said this, and she felt a grievance in her heart. The nose is sour, and the head is lowered and not spoken.

The drizzle wet her dress, her beautiful figure was exposed, her hair was slippery and sticky to her beautiful cheeks, water was dripping from her chin, and her eyes were so red that she couldn't tell whether it was rain or tears.

The grievance that was angry but didn't dare to argue loudly made Zhao Xian suddenly wake up from his anger. What am I doing so fiercely, and the idea was not from her, what's the use of me losing my temper in front of her.

Although he was quite angry at King Xian's actions in his heart, Zhao Xian hurriedly put away the next words of reprimand. He sneered, "I'm sorry! It's that I'm so excited. I don't mean to kill you, but I can't get used to the practice of the virtuous king, so don't be careful. ”

He said that he didn't think it was enough, and he stepped forward boldly. Hold Miss Shen Yu with her hand. He patted her on the back as if reassuringly. The body is soft as boneless. With the slightest hint of his daughter's fragrance, but it was cold and cold, and he hugged it tighter.

Keep your head down and be in a trance. Shen Yu didn't react for a while, and only when she was wrapped in a fiery man's breath and tightly hugged by two strong arms did she come back to her senses violently.

The tip of his heart trembled, he was stunned for a moment, and then his face turned red, and he screamed softly, and without thinking about it, he raised his hand and slammed his palm on his chest and pushed him away, took a few steps back and raised his hand to cover his chest, and his face was red and white and said angrily: "You, you dare to ...... with me"

In a hurry, he slapped his palm, although the strength was not serious, Zhao Xian, who had recovered from his serious injuries, still made a muffled snort in his throat, and his feet were unstable and he was knocked down on the stone bridge, and the oil-paper umbrella was torn apart in an instant. He coughed a few times, his face turned pale and endured the pain, but a few bloodshots oozed from his back, and it seemed that the wound had cracked.

Seeing that his face was wrong, Shen Yujiao's words slowly weakened. Her martial arts were taught by Shen Lingshan himself, and she was probably comparable to Su Wanyun, and Zhao Xian's face changed in an instant.

This palm will not beat him like this, is he hurt? She frowned slightly, and suddenly ran forward, wanting to tear open Zhao Xian's collar to check.

Zhao Xian was torn by her little hand by her neckline, and wanted to cover it up a few times, blocking her chest and quipping: "Hey, hey, hey!" Miss Shen Yu, in broad daylight, this is not good! Don't mess around, I'll scream! ”

Shen Yu's face was red, this guy really had no face and no skin, regardless of tearing his neckline, she saw a thick gauze wrapped around her wide chest, and she covered her mouth in shock. There was a hint of remorse in his eyes, and he stared at Zhao Xian and said, "Why are you so seriously injured?" She grabbed Zhao Xian's arm and lifted him up from the ground.

Zhao Xian smiled lightly, took her little hand and said, "The bandits I met on the road have suffered some skin injuries, you don't have to worry." ”

The small hand was held by his big hand, and the slightest heat came from above, Shen Yu suddenly stiffened, and wanted to raise his hand to push it away, but he gritted his silver teeth and held back: "Who is worried about you?" I'm just afraid that I'll kill you by mistake! Martial arts are not good, and I don't know how to bring more guards with me, if those high-ranking and powerful people are all like you, the killer assassin will die happily. ”

She was looking for a wound on Zhao Xian's chest, but Zhao Xian moved her strong chest muscles, which made her face a little redder, as if she remembered some scenes that were inappropriate for children. glared at Zhao Xian angrily a few times before he became honest.

After searching back and forth, he finally found that the wound was on the back, and the oozing blood had stained half of the gauze red, but he chuckled as if nothing was wrong. Shen Yu suddenly became depressed, and reprimanded angrily and anxiously: "How can you get drenched in the rain if you have an external injury?" Didn't you know it would suppurate the wound and get tetanus? ”

His face was very cold to Zhao Xian, but after the clouds and rain under the red maple tree, no matter how cold and arrogant Shen Yu was in the boudoir, it was difficult to treat him as a dispensable person. At this time, she lost her former calm, and she didn't dare to face it in her heart, so she hurriedly pulled Zhao Xian to walk under the bridge.

Zhao Xian saw that she was anxious for herself, and she was quite happy in her heart, and there was a little smile on her face. It's just that the purpose of coming here is to have a round with Sister Su, and now that people haven't waited, how can they leave easily.

However, Shen Yu's fierce appearance is unlikely not to go with her. Zhao Xian thought for a while, and said a few words to Si De, who was waiting in the distance, before following Shen Yu all the way.

About half an hour, come to a pavilion by the lake, surrounded by water on three sides and backed by mountains and forests, standing on the top floor can overlook the beautiful scenery of the lake, and the broken bridge in the distance is also in the field of vision.

Seeing this pavilion, Zhao Xian suddenly realized, no wonder he was found by Shen Lingshan, Shen Lingshan was elegant by nature, and it was not strange to live on the shore of the picturesque West Lake.

At this time, there was no one else in the pavilion, and he was pulled by Shen Yu to the second floor. Enter a boudoir.

The beaded curtain curtain tent is arranged very elegantly, and a long piano is placed on the ground, facing the lake in the distance, and you can imagine the beautiful scene of the jade man stroking the qin. There are also several pairs of calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall, all of which are from the hands of famous artists, Zhao Xian floated away at will, and found that the pair of words he wrote on the Changzhou Literary Association was also hung in the middle.

Shen Yu took off his wet coat and wore only a slender spring shirt, looking back to see Zhao Xian moving around. She said crisply, "Don't take off your wet clothes yet." I'll give you those clean clothes. ”

As he was talking, he suddenly saw Zhao Xian turn around, revealing a few pig-like expressions, and the corners of his mouth were strangely drooling.

Look down. But I saw that my white spring shirt was soaked. The pattern of the belly pocket is reflected on the body. The graceful silhouette of the proud twin peaks is unabashedly presented.

"Yikes!" Shen Yu was suddenly embarrassed, and floated behind the screen like a breeze, blocking his graceful figure. He said in a trembling voice: "I took off my clothes and lay down, and I will immediately go to find medicine to clean your wounds." ”

At the same time, there was a sound of Suo Suo from behind the vermilion lacquer screen, which seemed to be changing into clean clothes.

There was a tingling pain from his back, and Zhao Xian also wanted to re-bandage. Just hearing the embarrassed voice behind the screen, his heart fluttered slightly, or the ghost walked over, and said with a grin: "Don't worry, where did you put your dry clothes?" Do you want me to get it for you? ”

Before the words fell, I heard "Whew! There was a crisp crack, the slender sleeve arrow was nailed to the ceiling, and the coquettish voice came: "If you dare to take another step forward, I will throw you out." ”

Don't be so fierce! It's not that I haven't seen it. Zhao Xian was taken aback, his footsteps paused slightly, shook his head knowingly, and came to the bed, took off his shirt and lay down.

The boudoir was filled with fragrance, and the embroidery bed was neat, and Zhao Xian was embarrassed to mess it up with her. When he raised his hand to touch it, he touched a soft fabric, and he was slightly surprised in his heart, and when he took a closer look at it, it was a fiery red profane garment, on which the golden phoenix was lifelike, with a vague frankincense.

This dirty dress is quite familiar, Zhao Xian took a closer look, isn't it exactly what she wore last time outside Jinling City!

After a while, Shen Yu changed into a white nightdress, and came in from outside the house with a tray with a slightly red face, with gold sore medicine and a long gown inside.

When I raised my eyes, I saw Zhao Xian lying on the embroidery bed, holding her dirty clothes in her hands, and kept turning them from side to side. She ran over in surprise, snatched off the obscene clothes and hid them behind her back, and scolded: "You shameless person, I am kind enough to help you, but you... Hum! You get me out. "Obscene clothes are the most intimate items for women, even if they are relatives, they don't give casual contact, let alone Zhao Xian, who has an unclear relationship.

Seeing that she was embarrassed, Zhao Xian couldn't help but snort: "I accidentally touched it, and I'm still wondering what it is." ”

Seeing him like this, Shen Yu didn't know what to say after all, he put the tray on the head of the bed, looked at his sturdy body, and felt something strange in his heart, and in an instant, his face turned crimson, and his heart was full of embarrassment.

However, when she untied the gauze on Zhao Xian's back, she saw that her scarred back and two extremely deep wounds had penetrated the flesh, her little face suddenly changed, the itchy feeling in her heart suddenly dissipated, and her hand movements became more gentle.

Feeling the caress of the little hand on his back, Zhao Xian felt painful and comfortable, and lay on the pillow to calm down. After a while, he still couldn't help the irritability in his heart, and looked back and asked, "Miss Shen Yu, you said that King Xian and Dongying formed a brotherly alliance, how is the situation now?" Dongying has already sent troops into our country? ”

Hearing him speak, Shen Yu's hand paused slightly, Fang Cai's embarrassment disappeared a little, and he said softly: "The nose of the Dongying people is very smart, and not long after you captured Daliang, they had some communication with King Xian. Now that the brotherly covenant has been decided, the army is marching here, and it was supposed to arrive in the next few days, but it rained heavily and delayed the trip, and I am afraid that when the weather is fine, it will be able to land in the Shaoxing area. Now Toying's little prince Takeda Nobumasa has come to the Xianwang Mansion as a guest. ”

Zhao Xian frowned, stopped her little hand, sat up and said hurriedly: "No, I can't let this covenant be reached, if Dongying's army is allowed to gain a firm foothold in Jiangnan, I don't know how many soldiers and people will suffer because of this!" ”

Shen Yu sat on the edge of the bed, his willow eyebrows frowned slightly, and he snorted softly: "You can't let go of that fox spirit in Northern Qi, right?" Thinking about people everywhere, it's not enough to give up the world in hand, and now I'm afraid that people will be bullied by Fanbang. ”

This inexplicable flying vinegar made Zhao Xian quite stunned, and he shook his head lightly and smiled bitterly: "How could I have this kind of thought!" ”

Shen Yu's face was slightly displeased, and he said softly: "When you were the general of the Great Liang, there were not a few Northern Qi soldiers who were killed. After defecting to the Northern Qi Dynasty, it was not without the Liang soldiers who reflexively killed. Now suddenly tell me that you feel sorry for those soldiers, you have no official or position, why do you feel sorry for them? ”

The sarcasm in this remark, Zhao Xian couldn't hear it, Shen Yu was complaining that he was ruthless, but he didn't be ruthless to the end, he was a wicked person in the end, but he was kind-hearted, and as a result, he was not a human being inside and out.

Zhao Xian's face stiffened slightly, and then he smiled bitterly: "The big house and the second room of the family fight, even if you fight to the death, it has nothing to do with outsiders." I have never faced either side of Daliang and Northern Qi, only because Northern Qi can make the descendants of Yan and Huang strong, I will quickly cut through the chaos and become a villain. After the deed was accomplished, I did not dare to sit on the throne of the Ninety-Five, because it was too dirty, and it was piled up with the blood of countless compatriots. There are many reasons why I return the world to Xingya, I don't want my wife and children to be involved in the cold-blooded deception of the imperial court, I don't want Ye Sha to be disappointed because of my ambitions, I don't want to hurt Miss Xingya, who likes me, and I don't want to involve the hard-won world in the war again because of my selfish desires..."

Zhao Xian exhaled softly: "I'm not a heroic gentleman, nor am I a villain who compromises. The soldiers of Northern Qi and Daliang, who were on the battlefield, killed 110,000 in order to quell the war. And Dongying is a foreigner, let him enter Jiangnan, just like two brothers fighting, the second brother called outsiders to help clean up the boss, and gave the eldest daughter-in-law to outsiders as a reward, I can sit back and watch the boss and the second brother kill each other, but do not allow outsiders to come to my house to show off their might, not to maintain the rule of the Northern Qi royal family, but to defend the backbone of the descendants of China. ”

He is a person who likes to be leisurely, but people are bloody after all, but he is unwilling to exert this bloody nature on his compatriots, and only when facing foreign invasions will he show the blood in his eyes.

"Defend the backbone of Huaxia's descendants..."Shen Yu was slightly stunned, as if he didn't expect Zhao Xian to be so disgusted with the help of foreign clans. After a long time, she laughed again, and nodded on Zhao Xian's backbone: "You have no power or position now, even if you have such a big mind, what ability can you stop?" ”

Zhao Xian's face was depressed, his vigorous mind calmed down, he stared at Shen Yu beside him, and said with a wry smile: "Shen Yu, I'm afraid I need your help again." ”

Shen Yu blinked, and there was a slight smug light in his eyes, as if he liked the feeling of being trusted. She looked at Zhao Xian for a few moments, and snorted softly: "My father assists King Xian, why should I help you?" ”

Unconsciously, maybe she didn't even notice that the ice cubes directly with Zhao Xian were gradually melting.

Zhao Xian smiled lightly, looked at her silently, and took out a jade pendant from her arms, which she left under the red maple tree last time.

Seeing this piece of jade pendant accidentally scattered between the clouds and rain, Shen Yu's proud beautiful eyes suddenly turned into embarrassment, his face turned crimson, and he grabbed it and got up to leave.

Zhao Xian hurriedly raised his hand and grabbed her wrist, and said softly: "You are already my person, who can you help if you don't help me?" My father-in-law is amazingly talented, but he can't be reused in his life, I can recommend him to go to Northern Qi, and there is a better development space in comparison. ”

Shen Yu shook slightly, shook his head again and again, and said shyly: "Don't talk nonsense, who is your person!" Last time... Last time it was an accident, it doesn't count..."She said incoherently at the end, and ran away with the tray again.

Zhao Xian shook his head with a smile, and took his clothes back again, do you want me to spend the night here? He felt a slight itch in his heart, so he lay down on the embroidery bed again and rested quietly... (To be continued......)
