Leaving a wisp of sweet fragrance in the air, Ruoyun looked at the empty maple forest in front of her in a daze, thinking that Cheng Qingxuan was sitting alone in the pavilion behind her, and she felt a chill down her spine.

He is a king with a different surname but is not an official, his younger brother is a bastard, his brother is a powerful minister who has a dispute with Prince Rong in court, Xiaohong didn't know the details when he mentioned it, and he seems to know a little about medicine and is an elegant person......

However, Cheng Qingsu has had friction with Rong Yixuan many times, she is from Rongwangfu, will Cheng Qingxuan take the opportunity to start?

Her heart rose to her throat, but she saw a little snow white drifting through the tip of her nose. Then, at two or three o'clock, it shook off, and the snow began to fall finely and densely.

She suddenly realized that the sky was about to snow, and she picked up some snowflakes, and the white spots instantly turned into water droplets to cool down.

The maple forest is very quiet, and occasionally the leaves rustle in the snow, and the red leaves are blurred like frost after a while.

"Miss Su, don't stand in the snow, if you don't dislike it, come in and sit." Cheng Qingxuan's eyes were heavy, looking at her back, and he spoke lightly.

Listening to his warm voice, her back stiffened, and the tip of her nose almost sweated on this snowy day.

"Bai Ze is my friend, and his temperament is so informal, so don't worry about offending the girl." Seeing that she didn't move, he persuaded her softly.

Ruoyun nodded at this time, slowly turned around and sat down, burying her head and not daring to look at him.

Adding hot tea to the empty cup and pushing it to her, as if he was looking at her thoughts, Cheng Qingxuan said in a low voice: "This is ten miles west of the city, the back mountain of the palace." ”

Hearing King Yu, she turned from worry to fear, that invincible and cold-blooded god of war King Yu!

But they are all kings with different surnames, and it is natural for Cheng Qingxuan to come here to drink tea.

She looked around in horror, and was relieved to make sure that there was no figure of "King Yu", took a sip of hot tea, and peeked at the person sitting in front of her: "The prince doesn't suspect that I am from Prince Rong's mansion to inquire about the details?" ”

Relaxation after extreme tension is the most confusing, and she regrets it as soon as she speaks, how can she ask such a dangerous question.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Qingxuan glanced at her, and then looked carefully at the red sugar man in his hand, and was not surprised: "Oh? What did the girl want to ask? ”

"I ......" Now it was her turn to stutter, and she didn't think of a problem after taking a long sip of tea.

Seeing him looking at the sugar man thoughtfully, his silver-white clothes were as quiet as the snow melting in the red fire, Ruoyun became more and more confused, and rubbed his eyes vigorously.

Qing Xuan held the branch and picked out the charcoal fire in the furnace, looked at the getting bigger and bigger snow, shook his head slightly, and said: "The palace with a different surname is just for the sake of this Tianyi country, if the Tianyi Dynasty is safe, we can also have a safe homeland." Although I don't know how to say many comments, just like people know how to drink water, only the person concerned can deeply understand the taste. ”

Ruoyun was stunned, she never expected him to be so frank and straightforward about the evasive question, and rarely called himself "this king" between words, she instinctively felt that he must be an easy person to get along with.

"Then I can report this to Lord Rong?" Ruoyun raised her eyebrows and said tentatively with a smile.

Because of the charcoal fire, the sugar man in his hand slowly became shapeless, Cheng Qingxuan's eyes suddenly became sad, and he sighed at the end, "What Lord Rong wants to ask, I'm afraid it's not a girl." ”

Touching his indifferent gaze, she was speechless again.

This prince's gaze is the same as that of Chang'an Avenue that day, as if he is looking but he is not looking, as if he can see the far away nothingness through the person in front of him. The occasional emotions are fleeting, and she exists in the world but doesn't feel anything, which makes her inexplicably melancholy.

Cheng Qingxuan took a sip of tea and added another cup with her, unlike the fair-skinned and brilliant Bai Ze, the jade-colored hands were delicate and clean, elegant and white.

Not only the eyes, but I am afraid that the whole person has never lived in this world.

Ruoyun somehow became even more uncomfortable, and when she came back to her senses, she was shocked to find that the snow in the maple forest had accumulated half an inch.

Here ten miles west of the city, Kerong Wangfu is in the south of the city at the end of the Suzaku Street and then to the east.

Ruoyun couldn't sit still anymore, stood up and saluted: "The prince forgives me, if Yun sees that the sky is not early, she still says goodbye first, she is going out of the house and walking around at will, I am afraid that if I go back late, Chen Lao will ask someone to find me." ”

Cheng Qingxuan bowed slightly when he heard this, took out a white paper umbrella from under the table and handed it to her.

She stretched out her hand to take it, but heard him say: "Since the emperor has summoned her, the girl must ensure her own safety." ”

He wanted to speak again and again, and finally sighed: "Since I have a relationship with the girl, I should be convenient in the future." If you go downhill along the trail and follow the street, you will find Chengxi Avenue. ”

Ruoyun looked at his almost expressionless face in disbelief, grabbed the umbrella tightly and bowed his head and thanked him: "Thank you, Lord Xie, Ruoyun will leave." ”

If she hadn't heard her wrong, he would have said that he wouldn't harm him, and might even help her a little.

She walked into the snow with an umbrella, and did not look back, but hurriedly followed the path into the maple forest, startling the snow to fall in a torrent.

As soon as she walked on her front foot, Cheng Qingxuan's face became gloomy, and she slowly walked out of the pavilion and reached out to pick a maple leaf.

The maple trees shook, and as the snow fell, several figures in white turbans and gray tights came from the maple forests in all directions, all holding willow-shaped sharp knives in their hands.

In the next moment, the willow-shaped sharp knife had almost reached Cheng Qingxuan's throat.

Sent it forward, the long figure in a silver brocade robe retreated into the pavilion in a flash, and the willow knife twisted the light yarn Zhang Man into several pieces and fell.

Cheng Qingxuan left from the side of the pavilion a few zhang away, and the maple leaf twisted by his fingertips was thrown casually, and it spun out like a thin hidden weapon, and the necks of the two of them fell down with red marks.

His sleeves flew over, blocking one person's willow knife, and three backhand shots were aimed at the rest of the people's seals, and the deviating blade was turned by the sleeve and submerged into the chest of the person holding the knife.

The snow was silent, and the blood that flowed had stained the frosty ground the color of the treetops, scarlet.

"Tell your master, instead of wasting time making these weapons, it is better to study more to get revenge." He whispered impatiently, and someone in the depths of the maple forest hurriedly fled.

One person landed lightly, wearing a fiery red thin shirt and a red turban, and knelt down in front of Cheng Qingxuan: "Lord Wang, the mountain has been cleaned up." ”

"Who is Bai Ze chasing?" Cheng Qingxuan retracted his anger and spoke calmly.

"Back to the prince, the people of Dingzhou have also come to the capital slightly, and the bandits in the suburbs have increased, and it seems that there are suspicious people in the capital recently." The man in red only stated the situation and did not answer directly.

"Clean up here, and send someone to fix it." Cheng Qingxuan looked at the corpses lying on the ground, and was a little displeased, brushing his sleeves and leaving.

Ruoyun left along the trail, but did not hear the sound of fighting, and the end of the trail suddenly opened up, and it was already under the hillside behind it, and the city wall of the capital was also visible.

She couldn't help but quicken her pace, and several tall figures sprang out of the bushes.

"The boss told us to look for it here, and we can really catch the lonely." The leader was tall and burly, with a stubble on his face, and his whole body smelled, and he looked at her like a man who had been hungry for many days saw a delicious food.

"Do you think it's going to be caught, or is it just being sold?"

"Recently, the imperial city has been tightly guarded, and if you don't take this opportunity to make a windfall, you can sell it for a good price if you look at it."

Are they talking about themselves?!

These people were dressed in coarse cloth, with hideous faces, strong and short figures, armed with clubs and crude weapons.

Ruoyun's face turned pale, she lowered her head and tightly covered her face with a paper umbrella, and staggered back a few steps.

Seeing the footsteps of several people approaching, her hand holding the handle of the umbrella began to tremble, and one of them stepped unsteadily on the gravel and sat down.

The paper umbrella rolled down, and she only felt a sharp pain in her ankle, and she was terrified in her heart, and she didn't dare to look up at a few smiling faces.
