Chapter 16: The Alliance Under the Moon
When I arrived in the territory of Huiji, the waterways gradually increased, and I often had to change to a ferry after walking for less than ten miles. It was already very inconvenient to carry horses, Han Xin estimated that it was not far from Wucheng, and it was only a few days' walk to the schedule, so he found a market to sell the old horses.
is getting closer and closer to Wucheng, but the smile on Yu Miaoyi's face is getting less and less, and the mood of laughing in the past is now gone. Han Xin also slowed down intentionally or unintentionally, and every day when it was just early in the afternoon, he found an inn to rest.
Although he was reluctant, Wu Cheng finally arrived, Yu Miaoyi looked at the faintly visible city wall in the distance, and suddenly bowed her head and whispered to Han Xin: "Brother Han, don't enter the city today, can you accompany me for another day." ”
Han Xin saw that her drooping eyelashes trembled slightly, and his heart was suffocated, and he nodded involuntarily.
The market here already belongs to the outer city of Wucheng, which has always been the center of Wuyue, so it is also very lively here.
Han Xin took Yu Miaoyi around the market, taking her to see the candy man for a while, and juggling for a while, digging out hollow thoughts to make her happy.
But Yu Miaoyi always looked absent-minded, her eyes were in a trance, and several times it was Han Xin who patted her for a long time before she came back to her senses and smiled at Han Xinqiang. Han Xin saw that although she was still smiling like a flower, there was an indescribable pain in her smile, and she only felt a pain in her heart, as if she was pressing thousands of catties.
Han Xin, who was walking in front, suddenly warmed his hand, and saw Yu Miaoyi gently holding his hand.
"Brother Han, I'm a little tired, let's find an inn to rest."
When it got dark, I hastily ate dinner. During the meal, the two of them were silent, as if no one was willing to open their mouths to bring up the topic of Wu Cheng, and after eating, they went back to their rooms to rest early.
After returning to the room, Yu Miaoyi flipped over on the bed for half a night, only to feel stuffy in her chest, and she didn't feel sleepy at all. So he turned over and got up, pushed open the window, and the hand that pushed the window suddenly froze there.
I saw two starry eyes on the opposite roof starry staring at her windowsill, and when I saw her push open the window, I was slightly stunned.
In an instant, the whole world was fluttering, Yu Miaoyi smiled in his heart, smiled very happily, it turned out that he cared about me.
The two looked at each other and smiled, time seemed to freeze for them, they were silent with each other, staring at each other, surprisingly quiet, only the sound of the lonely wind, the chirping of insects, and the quiet snort of the two.
Han Xin smiled suddenly, and reached out with a smile on the corner of his mouth to make an inviting gesture.
"The moonlight is so good, why don't you come up and sit? Belle. ”
Yu Miaoyi smiled sweetly, like a lily blooming in the night, gently tugged the bangs in front of her forehead, and smiled like a flower.
"Okay, Brother Han, you pull me up."
Han Xin jumped lightly into the windowsill, gently hugged Yu Miaoyi's soft waist, and jumped onto the roof.
The two sat side by side, Yu Miaoyi saw a gourd not far from Han Xin, and faintly smelled a faint smell of wine between her noses, so she looked at Han Xin and asked, "Brother Han, have you drunk?" ”
Han Xin nodded with a smile and said, "When I went downstairs just now, I asked Xiao Er for it, do you want to taste it." After speaking, he picked up the wine gourd and handed it over. Yu Miaoyi hesitated, but still took it and put it to her mouth and took a sip, and hurriedly stuck out her tongue and said, "It's so unpleasant, then why do you men like to drink this." ”
Han Xin smiled, shook his head and said; "It's not all, men like to drink this when they have something on their minds."
"Do you have something on your mind?"
"Yes."
Han Xin regretted it a little after speaking, and the two were silent for a while, and the scene was slightly awkward.
Han Xintian snorted 'haha' and broke the silence: "Look, the moon is so round tonight." Yu Miaoyi nodded solemnly, "Yes, it's really round." ”
The two of them looked at each other, and suddenly they both came to their senses, and they both burst out laughing.
Tonight is obviously a crescent moon.
The wind on the roof was a little strong, and Yu Miaoyi's clothes were a little thin, so she sat closer to Han Xin. Han Xin looked at the beautiful woman on his side, Ruyu, a virgin fragrance like an orchid and musk between his mouth and nose, he couldn't help but feel a wave in his heart, his hand unconsciously grabbed her shoulder, Yu Miaoyi's body was shocked, after all, he still did not refuse, and gently leaned on Han Xin's shoulder.
"What are you thinking?" Yu Miaoyi raised her bright eyes and looked at Han Xin, seeing that he was looking at the moon in the sky attentively, she asked curiously.
"I'm wondering if the moon in 2,000 years will still be the same moon we see now."
"Huh?" Yu Miaoyi sat up straight, looked at Han Xin a little strangely, and said in surprise: "Brother Han, why do you say two thousand years later." If the average person wants to say it, they are talking about a hundred years from now, or a thousand years from now. ”
Han Xin smiled, and didn't know how to explain to her, so he didn't answer.
"Miaoyi."
"Huh?"
"Shall I read you a poem?"
Yu Miaoyi clapped her hands and said, "Okay." ”
Han Xin remembered the perverted Chinese teacher in his previous life, and after watching the performance of "Spring River Flower Moonlight Night" at the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, he became crazy and forced the class to memorize the full text of Zhang Ruoxu's "Spring River Flower Moonlight Night". He's probably remembering something, and he's just getting it now.
After pondering for a moment, Han Xin slowly chanted: The tide of the Spring River is even with the sea, and the bright moon on the sea is born together. Thousands of miles with the waves, where is there no moon in the spring river? The river flows around Fangdian, and the moonlit flowers and forests are like hail. The frost in the air does not fly, and the white sand on the Ting cannot be seen. Jiangtian is colorless and dustless, and the lonely moon wheel in the bright sky. Who first saw the moon on the riverside? When did Jiang Yue shine at the beginning of the year? Life has been infinite for generations, and Jiang Yue is only similar every year. I don't know who Jiang Yue treats, but I see the Yangtze River sending water.
Thinking of this, Han Xin couldn't help but think of his parents in his previous life, and he couldn't memorize it anymore.
I wonder if they would have thought that their son would have looked at the same bright moon as them in this era when they sat under the moon on the balcony.
Two thousand years later, he has long been dust, and the bright moon is still the bright moon, still high up, coldly watching the changes in the world.
Yu Miaoyi silently recited, 'Life has been infinite from generation to generation, and Jiang Yue is only similar every year. Suddenly, his delicate body was shocked, and there was a trace of confusion in his eyes when he looked at Han Xin. She felt Han Xin's sadness, but she didn't know how to comfort him, so she could only gently put her face on his chest, listening to his heartbeat and feeling his breath.
"Brother Han, tell me your story, okay."
Han Xin nodded.
"I am not a filial child, I have not listened to my parents since I was a child, and I often go against their will. They told me to read a good book, and I tore it into pieces. They told me to go to school well, so I didn't go to class all day and ran out to fool around. ”
"Then I had a younger brother, and they had to be distracted to take care of him, and they couldn't be around me all day like they used to. I hated it at the time, I hated my brother, I hated him for taking away my parents. So I became even more angry with them, deliberately doing things that made them very angry and saying things that made them very sad. Now that I think about it, they must have been very sad, disappointed, and disappointed. ”
"And then." Yu Miaoyi's sparkling eyes looked at Han Xin.
Han Xin was silent for a while, "Later, I left home and came here. My current mother has taken me in because I look like her son. ”
"Haven't you thought about going home?"
Han Xin looked at Mingyue in a daze, and suddenly two lines of tears flowed down. "I can't go back, I can't go back."
"What I want to do most now is to say 'I'm sorry' to my mom and dad and tell them that I love them."
"But I can't go back."
Yu Miaoyi gently pulled Han Xin, her body was quietly close to the tearful Han Xin, her hand slowly stroked Han Xin's back, silent.
For the first time, she felt Han Xin's sorrow, so strong. It's just that too often, his cynicism covers up his sadness very well.
At this moment, she only felt that Han Xin was like a child, a child who needed to be comforted.
Yu Miaoyi said softly: "Is it really that far?" ”
Han Xin had already recovered at this time, sat up straight, and nodded with a wry smile: "It's far, far away, like the end of the world, I won't have a chance to go back in this life." ”
Yu Miaoyi was silent for a while, plucked up her courage, and then said in a voice as thin as a mosquito: "Then I won't go back." ”
"I'll be with you always." After speaking, he blushed and lowered his head.
Han Xin was stunned for a moment, and then he was ecstatic in his heart, happily holding Yu Miaoyi around a few times, and kept saying to himself in his heart: I finally have someone to love, finally someone to love, I will never be lonely again, never again.
When I stopped, I saw Yu Miaoyi's pretty face slightly red, she opened her mouth and gasped lightly, she couldn't help but move in her heart, and involuntarily answered her lips. Yu Miaoyi's delicate body was shocked, her whole body tensed, and she stood there stiffly, but she still didn't refuse after all. The four lips touched, and the whole body seemed to be drained of all its strength, and leaned softly into Han Xin's arms.
Two men and women who are just beginning to fall in love are on the roof of this month, clumsy but greedy from the mouth of the sweet jin @ liquid, there is no sea vow, no red candles, only the bright moon high above, witnessing their love.
At that moment, it seemed that the moonlight was drunk, and it was softly sprinkled on the body, and I was reluctant to leave for a long time.
It wasn't until a long time that the two reluctantly parted, Yu Miaoyi gasped slightly, pretending to be angry and said, "Hmph, you hurt me and I'm about to suffocate to death." ”
Han Xin smiled, nodded and said, "Next time, next time it will definitely improve." ”
Yu Miaoyi couldn't help but laugh when she looked flattering to him, and she couldn't pretend to be angry anymore. The two snuggled up for a while, and Yu Miaoyi seemed to remember something, her face darkened, revealing a little worried.
"Brother Han."
"Yes." Han Xin answered.
"I haven't told you anything about me yet, in fact, I am a remnant of the Chu State, and my father's family was originally a prominent family of the Chu State. When the state of Chu fell, I was only four years old, and my mother, younger brother, and entire family were all killed by the Qin army in the rebellion, and only my father fled to Wucheng with my brother and me. In order to take revenge, my father and elder brother have been actively contacting the Chu State and the relics of other countries to seek revenge. Because I was afraid that something would happen to me, he sent me to my grandfather's house when I was eight years old, and the good uncle who took me home this time was the general of the Xiang family of the same Chu Guowang clan. ”
Han Xin was stunned, "Xiang family? ”
Yu Miaoyi nodded, hesitated slightly, and then said softly: "The Xiang family is the descendant of Xiang Yan, the general of the Chu State, and their family has always been the leader of the Chu State's relics. When I went home this time, my father intended to marry me to the young master of the Xiang family and deepen the relationship between the two families. ”
Han Xin's face changed drastically, he looked at Yu Miaoyi in a daze, and asked in a trembling voice, "Then are you willing?" ”
"Originally, I thought that would be it. Since my father wants me to marry him, it is naturally for my own good, and even if I am not willing, I will not object. Yu Miaoyi deliberately stretched out her voice and said, seeing Han Xin's bitter expression, she laughed out loud.
"Now I don't want to, because I have you." Yu Miaoyi gently leaned on Han Xin's chest.
"Take me away, Brother Han, wander the world from now on, with me with you."
Han Xin hugged the beautiful woman, his mind was blank, he only felt that happiness came so quickly, and suddenly nudged her away in a panic.
"Wait a minute." Then he jumped off the roof, leaving a confused Yu Miaoyi on the roof, inexplicably watching Han Xin busy in the grass outside the courtyard.
"That's it."
Han Xin jumped back to her in a hurry, holding two strangely shaped small grass rings in his hands.
"Hehe, that condition is shabby, forgive me." Han Xin touched his head and looked at the two deformed grass rings in his hand with some embarrassment. Then suddenly his face tightened, and he said in a calm voice with a solemn expression:
"Mr. Han Xin, are you willing to accept Ms. Yu Miaoyi as your lawful wife, to live with her according to God's decree, and to live with her in a sacred covenant? And promise to love her, respect her, comfort her, cherish her, and always be loyal to her from now on, unto death?"
Han Xin changed his voice and said, "I am willing." Then she held Yu Miaoyi's hand, which was stunned, and clumsily brought a straw ring to the ring finger of her left hand.
He looked at Yu Miaoyi, who was looking at him in a daze, and said slowly and affectionately: "Ms. Yu Miaoyi, are you willing to accept Mr. Han Xin as your legal husband, live with her according to God's decree, and live with him in the sacred marriage contract?" And promise to love him, respect him, comfort him, cherish him, and always be loyal to him from now on, unto death?"
Looking at Han Xin's gaze staring at her, Yu Miaoyi suddenly understood, tears of joy couldn't help but welled up in her eyes, and she said in a trembling voice: "I am willing." Then he grabbed Han Xin's hand, took another straw ring on his fingers, and held his hand tightly.
For a lifetime, never lose.
