Chapter 115: Seeing Off
There are indeed a lot of interesting places in Yingzhou, and Baili Jinyang has fallen, and now there is a lot of waste to be revived, and there is hope in everyone's eyes.
Everyone's hearts are relaxed, although there is a gloomy atmosphere in the sky over Yingzhou, everyone will believe that this dark cloud will eventually disperse.
There is a small hill that is neither high nor low in Yingzhou, if you climb to the top, although you do not have a panoramic view of the majestic momentum of the small mountains, there will also be a unique landscape.
From top to bottom, you can take the entire Yingzhou City into your eyes, standing on a high place, the scorching sun is molten gold, and the grass and trees are shining.
Luo Zhu's body did not heal, but he insisted on reaching the top in person, Baili Ji was more worried about his body, and tried to help him many times, or carry him, but Luo Zhu refused.
In the past, when his spiritual power moved, he could leap over a mountain, but now his dantian is wasted, and he has become a mortal for the first time, and just climbing the mountain makes him very fresh.
Although Luo Zhu's face was pale, his spirit was very full, and he was paying attention elsewhere, and he didn't notice the pain.
Baili Jiyue stared at Luo Zhu's face and sighed imperceptibly.
Luo Zhu didn't pay attention to Baili Jiyue, he was all caught by this brilliant and magnificent scenery at the moment.
The planning of Yingzhou is very square and standardized, whether it is a large road or a small road or an official road, it is straight and upright, extending from north to south, and vertical and horizontal from east to west. A central axis splits the whole Yingzhou into two halves, and the large and small buildings are arranged on both sides, which are usually not visible in the low places, and only from a bird's-eye view of the past can we really appreciate the rigorous and almost harsh cultural atmosphere of Yingzhou.
Baili Jiyue stood beside Luo Zhu and said, "Yingzhou is an ancient city, which has stood proudly in the eastern part of the Haoyue Continent since a thousand years ago. ”
It's very strange that he is about to sit on this great country, and all of this will belong to him alone, climbing high and looking into the distance, which evokes not his long-lasting shock and uneasy mind, but the kind of bleakness, and a bit of confusion and helpless loneliness.
What can he do now that he has the throne, and he is not alone.
At this time, Baili Jiyue was a little loose, and if he really left with Luo Zhu, it would not be impossible to ......
As soon as this thought came to him, he poured cold water on himself.
How can it be?
The country is still in the country, the border barbarians are ready to move, and the country needs a leader too much.
When the country was in danger and his family was in trouble, he himself chose to be a hero, he had no position, and he was not qualified to retreat.
He deserves to be lonely for a lifetime.
Luo Zhu's face was still a little childish, but this childishness was no longer obvious under his pale face.
As he stood here, he suddenly felt that his heart was open, but even if he was open, he could not open his heart.
He just couldn't understand why Baili Jiyue would reject him.
He knew what Baili Jiyue was worried about, the two of them had different fates, and they took completely different paths, the two had too many differences, and such feelings were too fragile, maybe something would go wrong somewhere in the long river of time, and then the whole line would collapse.
Baili Ji Yue said that he had a hundred years of life, and now it was over one-third, he was afraid that he was just a passerby in Luo Zhu's long life, and in the end, he gave everything, and Luo Zhu's freshness was over, and there was nothing.
Luo Zhu is just a few decades with a flick of his fingers, and Baili Jiyue has paid him a lifetime.
Luo Zhu's heart sank little by little, and finally sank into the bottomless sea, unable to even bubble out.
At this moment, the magnificent and splendid scenery could no longer arouse half of his interest.
Baili Jiyue noticed Luo Zhu's loss, he pretended not to see the loss in Luo Zhu's eyes, and said, "Tired? ”
Luo Zhu's good mood disappeared in that moment, and he glanced at Baili Yue forbearingly, closing his eyes and calming down.
After a long time, he opened his eyes and looked a little cold: "I'm a little tired, where are we going next?" ”
Baili Jiyue took Luo Zhu almost to turn the entire Yingzhou City, Luo Zhu was excited, and he didn't see the excitement at the beginning, he just sat in the carriage and heard the destination, then looked up, got off the car, walked around the destination, and walked around, Luo Zhu's mood was even worse.
Baili Jiyue was a little anxious, but he didn't show anything on the surface, he looked up at the rising moon in the east, and moved closer to Luo Zhu: "The night market is about to get up, do you want to eat something?" ”
Luo Zhu was not in the mood and shook his head.
Baili Jiyue said: "The night market is very lively, and you can put river lanterns at night." ”
Hearing the word river lantern, Luo Zhu's eyes lit up for a moment, and the whole person finally became a little lively, and he finally changed his depression at the beginning, temporarily put aside his worries, and prepared to follow Baili Jiyue to the night market.
Baili Jiyue is not wrong, the night market is one of the most lively places in Dayin under the devastation of the war.
All kinds of snacks and grocery stores are hung with red lanterns, swaying in the breeze, forming a long dragon that is bright and uncertain, roaring and winding forward.
Luo Zhu got out of the carriage, and the others didn't even look at it, and went straight to the place where the river lantern was placed.
Baili Jiyue had no reason to refuse, but followed him closely, afraid that he would get lost.
They didn't bring guards with them this time, first, for fear of attracting attention, but because Luo Zhu said that as long as he was with him.
At night, the lake is as smooth as a mirror, and the silver moon hangs upside down, falling on the water-drenched waves.
Some children were putting river lanterns, laughing and shouting, while squatting on the bank, carefully protecting the small candle with their hands, and making some secret little wishes in their hearts, hoping that Daddy and Auntie could buy them more candy to eat, and wishing that Ah Niu next door would stop bullying themselves.
Luo Zhu learned from the children, squatted down, folded a lotus lantern, lit it, closed his eyes, said something in his mouth, and then carefully sent the lotus lantern into the water, for fear that the lamp would turn over before it entered the water, so that his wish would be directly stifled by God.
Baili Ji was more afraid that he would be squeezed down by people coming and going, so he stood beside him silently, his eyes fell on the lotus lamp, and his expression looked a little deep.
When it was done, Luo Zhu was ready to get up, but I don't know if his body was too weak, or if he had squatted for a long time and all the blood flowed to his brain, and the moment he got up, his eyes were black.
He didn't stand firmly, and the soles of his feet were weak and he fell backwards.
Baili Jiyue quickly grabbed his wrist with one hand, and the whole person also rushed up quickly, using Luo Zhu as a human-shaped cushion.
Luo Zhu was in a trance, feeling that his wrist was being clenched by a hand like an iron tong, he "hissed", and when the dizziness dissipated, he crashed into the eyes of Baili Yue's deep pool.
Baili Ji seemed to be aware of his gaffe, and immediately let go of Luo Zhu's wrist.
Luo Zhu seemed to see some hope, held Baili Yue's hand with his backhand, and asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, do you know what wish I made just now?" ”
Baili Jiyue's eyes were a little evasive, and he said, "If you say that your wish is spoken, it won't work." ”
"If it doesn't work, it won't work," Luo Zhu smiled, "Anyway, this wish will not come true anyway." ”
Baili Jiyue felt his throat tighten for a while.
Luo Zhu said: "I hope that Baili Jiyue will agree to return to the Xuanyue Poison Sect with me." ”
As soon as these words came out, both of them were silent.
Luo Zhu also felt that his wish was ridiculous to the extreme, and smiled: "If you can't say it, the result is the same." ”
Baili Jiyue felt that his heart was instantly choked by a hand, and it was a little difficult to even breathe at that moment.
The warm orange light in the distance was bright and warm, and the moon was quiet and long, but Luo Zhu knew that none of this had anything to do with the two of them.
But he still didn't give up and asked, "Your Highness, can I kiss you?" ”
Baili Jiyue reacted immediately, breaking away from his hand and taking a step back.
Luo Zhu's eyes became empty at that moment, he lowered his head in disappointment, and then raised his head again, revealing a forced smile: "Haha...... Tease you, I'm a little hungry, Your Highness, take me back, my master will come to pick me up early tomorrow morning. ”
When the last few words came out, he trembled a little at the end, and he was obviously about to cry.
Baili Jiyue's eyes moved away, and said, "Go back to the palace, it's not too early, you have to take medicine, otherwise your body won't be able to hold it." ”
Luo Zhu reluctantly pulled the corners of his mouth and said "um".
The road back to the palace was silent and long, with the occasional whisper from the coachman, and the atmosphere between the two of them was awkward and silent.
Luo Zhu was thinking almost all the way, how he and Baili Jiyue got to this point, and when the final moment of separation came, he didn't even have a warm memory between the two.
Except for the initial glimpse in the Devil's Cry Forest. Nothing else remained.
Luo Zhu leaned against the wall of the carriage lonely, the corners of his eyes slightly wet.
-
Luo Zhu stayed awake all night, and at the beginning of the morning, he pushed the door and walked out.
Baili Jiyue was still busy reviewing the recitals, and Luo Zhu wanted to see him one last time, and instructed the little eunuch to lead him to him.
The little eunuch didn't dare to disobey, after all, this was the person personally ordered by His Royal Highness King An to take care of him.
Luo Zhu found Baili Jiyue in the imperial study.
Baili Jiyue was obviously a little absent-minded, and he didn't notice that Zhu Mo was dripping on the fold.
"Your Highness......" Luo Zhu shouted softly.
Baili sent more and more no response.
Luo Zhu shouted again, and Baili Jiyue suddenly came back to his senses, raised his head and met Luo Zhu's eyes.
"Your Highness, I'm leaving, can you send me off?"
-
The two walked side by side, walking along the bricks.
The two of them seemed to have a tacit understanding, the frequency and size of their steps were exactly the same, and neither of them was willing to open their mouths first to break the deadly silence.
Wu Moyu waited outside the palace gate, and Baili Jiyue stopped leaving after leaving the harem.
Luo Zhu turned his head to look at him suspiciously.
Baili Jiyue: "May you have a bright future in the future." ”
Luo Zhu took a deep breath: "Your Highness, it's not over yet, you can give me another ride." ”
Baili Jiyue had no reason to refuse, so he didn't say a word and continued to move forward.
The two were silent, Luo Zhu didn't take medicine in the morning, his face was as pale as paper, and the sharp pain in the dantian found him hauntingly.
Luo Zhu laughed at himself: "Your Highness, as long as you speak, I can stay now and not go forward." ”
Baili Jiyue subconsciously looked up and saw the towering palace gate, and Luo Zhu's master was waiting outside.
Baili Ji knew what Luo Zhu was waiting for, and this was also the last chance Luo Zhu gave him.
