The war between Xuanyuan and Gaoxin had been going on for ten years, and in the course of ten years, both sides had won and lost, and Xuanyuan had a slight advantage, encroaching on Gaoxin's land at a very slow pace.

After a long time in Gaoxin, many of Xuanyuan's soldiers learned to speak Gaoxin. Strict orders were issued not to disturb the people. Otherwise, there will be no mercy, and the soldiers are always very kind to the people of Gaoxin. Every year during the flood season. Soldiers helped the people maintain the dikes and divert the river. When farming is not working. Soldiers often wore musical instruments and masks into each village, and performed square plays for the people without pay.

As long as there is no war, the people of Gaoxin really can't hate the Xuanyuan soldiers.

At the end of summer, Xuanyuan attacked Bailing City, an important city in Gaoxin, and the battle lasted four days and four nights. Hong Leong was defeated by the harvest.

After getting the news, what he was worried about was not the gains and losses of one city and one pool, but Fenglong. Feng Leong is young and vigorous, born noble, talented and high, he was raised by everyone, brave enough, lack of tenacity, but he was tempered by the master thousands of times, polished to be cunning and cunning, not afraid of anything else, I am afraid that Feng Leong has a shadow in his heart because of defeat, which will affect his morale. Everything is easy to say, but morale is difficult to condense, and once the morale is dispersed, the defeat will be revealed.

After thinking about it for a while, he decided that he still wanted to go to the army in person, even if he didn't do anything, he only accompanied Feng Long to drink two jars of wine, and scolded and scolded together. With Feng Long's cleverness, it slowly eased up.

When he went to Xiaoyue to see the Yellow Emperor, Xiao Yao and Jing happened to be there.

Zhen Xuan said to Xiao Yao: "I want to leave for a while. ”

"Where to go?"

"Externally, it is said to go to Xuanyuan Mountain, but in fact, it is a trip to the army, and it takes about a month to go back and forth."

Xiao Yao reacted that this army refers to Fenglong's army, and asked a little awkwardly: "Is it dangerous?"

"Danger is always everywhere, the most difficult days have come, what danger can be more terrible now than then?"

Xiao Yao nodded slightly: "Well, you can go with confidence, I will take care of my grandfather." ”

Zhen Xuan said: "You said some days ago that some medicinal herbs grow in Gaoxin, but unfortunately I didn't have a chance to see them, but I'm afraid that the record is not accurate enough, do you want to go to Gaoxin with me, just to see those herbs with your own eyes?"

"I don't want to!" Xiao Yao replied very simply.

Zhen Xuan smiled slightly, and said to Jing, "There is one thing I want to discuss with you. The products of Xuanyuan and Gaoxin are completely different, because the two countries are not closely connected, and although there was a little exchange in the past, it was limited to items favored by the nobility and did not benefit the common people. The products are circulated all over the country, and they are mutually beneficial. It is a good thing for the people of the whole great wilderness. Tu Shan's business is all over the Great Wilderness, if the wheel of the Great Wilderness products of the first recommendation, I want you to go with me to Gaoxin, to see what is suitable to introduce into the Central Plains now. If possible, this matter will be troublesome to the Tu Shan clan in the future, after all, the circulation of property must be tested at will, and it is not suitable to send a few officials to do it with great fanfare, and it will definitely not be able to do it well!"

Jing glanced at Xiao Yao and said with a smile: "This is a great thing that is good for all the people in the world, and the Tu Shan clan can also profit from it, Jing is willing to go to Gaoxin with His Majesty." ”

Xiao Yao stared: "Do you want to go together?"

Xiao Yao was ashamed that he was pinched by Zhen Xuan. He said stiffly: "Don't go, don't go, don't go!"

Zhen Xuan smiled and didn't say anything more, called Xiaoxiao over, and told her to prepare things, remember to count Xiaoyao.

Xiao Yao went to talk to the Yellow Emperor and pretended not to hear anything.

On the day of the trip, Xiaoxiao was sent to pick up Xiaoyao, and Xiaoyao was packed up early. and Miao Pu neatly got on the clouds.

When he arrived in Gaoxin, he was not in a hurry to go to the army, but wandered around with Jing and Xiaoyao.

It was a private trip, and he didn't bring a large team of guards, and they all followed him secretly.

Zhen Xu, Jing and Xiao Yao changed into Gao Xin's costumes, Zhen Xuan and Xiao Yao are authentic Gao Xin dialect, Jing also spoke decently, walking on the street, so that all the vendors thought they were Gao Xin people.

Perhaps, when the city was first captured, there were traces of war, but after years of governance, Xiao Yao could not find a trace of war. On the street, people come and go, teahouses and restaurants are open, similar to the scene Xiao Yao saw before, the only difference is that it seems to be more lively, there are many women with Central Plains accents in Gaoxin dialect asking about prices and choosing to buy things.

Xiao Yao was puzzled, and asked Jing: "Why is this happening?"

Jing said with a smile: "Xuanyuan's army is stationed in Gaoxin, and the soldiers will inevitably miss their families, His Majesty has specially allocated funds to encourage the families of the soldiers to settle down here, as long as there is no war, the soldiers can take turns to go home for three days every month, and the soldiers with children can also receive more money." His Majesty's move not only reassured the soldiers, but also invisibly made the soldiers more careful when guarding patrols, because they were not only guarding other people's cities, but also their homes. ”

Xiao Yao saw many ladies carrying vegetable baskets in their hands and carrying children on their backs, and couldn't help asking, "Their children were born in Gaoxin?"

"yes!" Jing thought, not only was he born here, but he estimated the meaning of Zhuan, it is very likely that they will grow up in Gaoxin and take root from then on.

At the base of the wall, a group of half-grown children squatted on the ground fighting grasshoppers, shouting from time to time, and for a while they couldn't tell which one was Gaoxin and which one was Xuanyuan, Xiao Yao looked at them and muttered: "This is different from the war I imagined." ”

Jing said: "His Majesty the Black Emperor is different from His Majesty the Yellow Emperor, His Majesty Emperor Jun and Chi You don't raise, and the most important thing is that the current Xuanyuan Kingdom is different from the previous Xuanyuan Kingdom." ”

Xiao Yao and Jing's conversation was heard clearly, but since Xiao Yao entered Gao Xin, he acted like he didn't want to talk to him, so he kept silent, and he didn't say a word at this time, let Xiao Yao go and listen to it by himself.

The sun is setting in the west, and it will be late.

He said, "The gates will be closed in a while." I don't want to live in the city, I intend to stay in the village, and if you don't object, we'll go out of the city. ”

Jing looked at Xiao Yao, and Xiao Yao said to Zhen Yan: "You are Your Majesty, so naturally I will listen to you." ”

They went out of the city gate and rode south in ox-carts. When it gets dark, you arrive at a village.

There are torches burning at the entrance of the village, and it is crowded with people, and it is very lively. Some sat on the ground, some on stones, some children climbed on trees, and some were on boats.

Xiao Yao said to the secret guard who was driving, "Stop!" Let's check it out!"

Because of the large number of people, the secret guard could only park the ox cart outside, and Xiao Yao stood on the cart, stretching his neck to look inside. It turned out that there was a square drama inside. Fang Xiangshi is a god in ancient times, and it is said that he is very good at changing, and he can have a thousand faces in a day. Dressed as a woman and a man as a man, after he died, he turned into a mask, and as long as people put it on, they could change at will. No one has ever seen a real square mask, but people have made all kinds of masks with skillful hands, put on different masks, played different people, sang and danced. Gradually, a square drama was formed.

To put it bluntly, the mask is a kind of representation, and when you wear the mask, it is as if you have the power to change like Fang Xiang's family, and while you are that person, you can interpret the story of that person.

Fang Xiang drama is popular among the people, and it is about the legends of heroes and beauties that are mostly liked by adults and children. Tonight's Fang Xiang drama has been played for more than half of the time, and it is estimated that it started from the legendary Pangu Emperor who split the heavens and the earth, and there is a smart and affectionate Hua Xu in the story. There are the loyal and brave Shennong, the suave Gao Xin, the erudite and talented Xiling, the cunning and money-loving nine-tailed fox Tushan, the mentally handicapped Gui Fang, the Chishui who is good at resisting water, and the Jin Tian who is good at casting...... Together with the land of Pangea, they eradicated demons and monsters and created the Great Wilderness. At that time, there was no Shennong royal family, no Gaoxing royal family, and no Xuanyuan royal family.

Adults and children watching the play were sometimes amused by the cunning nine-tailed fox Tu Shan. Sometimes he wipes his tears for the cunning ghost, sometimes he cheers for the loyal and brave Shennong, and sometimes sighs for the intelligent and affectionate Hua Xu. Seeing that the suave Gao Xin clan gave up the prosperity of the Central Plains for the sake of the great wilderness and tranquility, and went to protect the distant and desolate Tang Valley, they would even applaud vigorously together and cheer loudly.

Xiao Yao also looked at it and sighed. Although there must be many discrepancies from the truth when everything becomes a legend, she believes that the heroism, friendship, loyalty, and sacrifice in the story are true.

In addition to sighing and sighing about the story, Xiao Yao sighed even more at the thoughts, these are just the elegant side dramas that are difficult to wait for the lobby when the farm is slack, and the people of Gaoxin are also watching and playing, anyway, they don't want money, laugh, cry, and still go to work the next day. However, after laughing and crying, they unconsciously accepted a fact passed on by the person: the world is one family, there is no distinction between Gaoxin and Xuanyuan, whether it is the Central Plains, the people of Gaoxin, or the people of the north and the south of Xinjiang, they are all the people of the Great Wilderness.

After watching Fang Xiang's play, the night was already very deep, and the three of them did not rush again, and rested in this village that night.

On the second day, under the big banyan tree at the entrance of the village, a group of children were playing games, and they had no money to buy masks, so they used the grass juice fuel available everywhere in the countryside to paint their faces in various colors: You are Shennong; I, to be Tu Shan's clan; Brother Xin is the most handsome, so he will be Gao Xin's family; Dashan is the best swimmer, so he will be Chishui; Xiao Yu'er always loves to get sick, and he has the most ghost ideas, so he will be a ghost Fang's ......

The legend of the heroic beauty is staged in a strange and funny way in the children's game.

Xiao Yao laughed while watching, laughing and sighing. As long as Zhuan Xuan and Feng Long don't make murder, when this group of children grows up, they won't hate the Chishui clan or Zhuan Xuan.

The ox cart slowly left the village, and the screams of the children faded away.

Xiao Yao arched his hand and expressed his admiration: "I really don't know how you came up with it?" Even I watched last night's Fang Xiang drama and they were affected, and they will definitely be affected. ”

Zhen Xuan said: "Fang Xiangxi is telling the truth, I just let the people face up to a fact. ”

Xiao Yao couldn't help but sneer: "I hope that facing this fact doesn't require life." ”

Looking at the mountains and rivers in the distance, he said, I have lived in Gaoxin for more than 200 years, and I have gone out early and returned late with fishermen, fishing hard; once used his hard-earned money with the peddlers and pawns to drink bad wine; After digging lotus roots, a companion sang under the moonlight around the lotus pond; He also assassinated bandits with soldiers. When I was forced to leave Xuanyuan and wander around Gaoxin, it was the people of this land who accompanied me through that lonely and confused days, although they have long since died, but their children and grandchildren are still living on this land, they will still go out early and return late to support their families, they will still use their hard-earned money to sell wine, they will still sing songs under the moon to pursue the girl they like, and they will still shed blood and sacrifice to kill bandits, I know their hardships and their joys!"

Zhen Yan looked back at Xiao Yao, his eyes were calm and sincere: "Xiao Yao, in terms of feelings for this land, I will only be deeper than you, and I will never be shallower than you!"

Xiao Yao was speechless, indeed, although she was the princess of Gaoxin, she didn't know Gaoxin, and she was the one who had stepped on every inch of Gaoxin's land and every river.

"I admit that I have my own ambitions, but I just do it at the right time and follow the general trend of the world. The great wilderness of unification is good for all the people of the world. War is inevitable and there will be bloodshed, but I have done everything in my power to avoid hurting the innocent. Xiaoyao, I don't expect you to agree with my approach, but at least please see my efforts. ”

Xiao Yao turned her head to look at the scenery of the field, and after a while, she said in a low voice, "I saw it." "The sound is like a filament, but the ears and eyes are clear, and they can hear it clearly.

He sighed contentedly, crossed his hands, pillowed under his head, and lay down under the ox cart, looking at the blue sky and white clouds in the distance. He had always been moody, but now he thought about Xiao Yao's words, like a young man, grinning happily.

Hong Hou's loud singing voice, Zhen Xuan actually sang a fishing song in Gaoxin dialect:

Foot on the bow of the ship

Hand swing bamboo tip

The sun is fierce overhead

Rain all over the head

The cold wind pierces the bones

……

Not far away on the river, fishermen who were rocking their boats to catch fish heard his singing, tore their throats, and began to sing together.

As if he was going to compete with him, he also pulled his throat and shouted happily:

Eat the bran cabbage head

Wear a knotted head

Fishing boats with nailheads

Fishermen are exposed

Dusk hits the fifth watch

Ke to a basket of wild fish

……

Jing was very surprised in her heart, she knew that he had been a wanderer for a hundred years, and she also knew that he had a lot of market energy, but she really didn't expect him to still show this side now, but Xiao Yao was not surprised, obviously very used to such a sting. It seems that Zhen Yao has always been like this in front of Xiao Yao, but today he happened to bump into it.

Jing remembered the Yellow Emperor's sentence "Between Zhuan Xuan and Xiao Yao, I am just an outsider", Jing suddenly felt a little uneasy, but after thinking about it carefully, I don't understand why I am uneasy, his marriage with Xiao Yao has been decided, Zhen Xuan and the Yellow Emperor both agree, all along, Zhen Yao has never objected to his relationship with Xiao Yao.

In the evening of the second day, they arrived at the garrison of the large army of Hong Long.

Xiao Yao thought of seeing Feng Long, so she was awkward, and whispered to Zhen Xuan: "Why don't I change my clothes and pretend to be your secret guard!"

Zhen Xuan said: "I've been hiding for almost 20 years, is it possible that you plan to hide for the rest of your life?" Isn't it just that I escaped from marriage? Feng Leong and Jing don't mind your, why don't you let it go?"

Zhen Xuan's voice was not suppressed at all when he spoke, Jing who was walking behind and Feng Long, who had just come out of the camp, heard it clearly, both of them were a little embarrassed, but Zhen Xuan didn't see anything, Xiao Yao carried it to Feng Long, and asked with a smile: "Feng Long, you should tell her, do you still have a place in your heart to worry about her escape from marriage?"

Feng Long bowed to Zhen Xuan, and when he got up, he said, "I am now thinking about harvesting from the moment I open my eyes early in the morning to the time I close my eyes at night, and I also dream about harvesting at night. ”

Zhen asked Jing again: "Do you mind that Xiao Yao has escaped marriage?"

Jing stared at Xiao Yao and said very clearly, "I don't mind at all." ”

He said, "Did you hear that? One has long forgotten, the other doesn't mind at all, can you also let go?"

Although Xiao Yao was very embarrassed, she also understood that Feng Long took the opportunity to talk about it, after all, even if she could hide from Feng Long for a lifetime, Jing was still Feng Long's friend, and she couldn't let Feng Long and Jing be estranged because of her. Xiao Yao saluted Feng Long: "General." ”

Feng Long politely replied: "Miss Xiling." ”

Xiao Yao retreated behind Zhen and Jing.

Feng Long looked at Jing and asked curiously, "Why did you follow Your Majesty?" The embarrassment just now has vanished, and the casualness of the past has returned.

Jing said with a smile: "I thought you wouldn't be able to meet someone to treat you in your life, but I didn't expect that the harvest would make you suffer three defeats in a row, so I naturally came to see the fun." ”

Feng Long made a distressed look and screamed: "Your Majesty, listen to it!"

The three men walked into the tent and got down to business.

Xiao Yao quietly left and went to wash and change clothes. Now she really believes that Feng Leong has let go of everything, this is the difference between men and women, men's world is broader, and many things will soon be diluted, just like Jing and Zhen said back then, within three months, Feng Leong will indeed mind very much, but three years later, Feng Leong will not feel anything, to this day, he is a general, commanding hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, and he will not care about Xiao Yao's escape, not to mention that Xiao Yao is no longer Gao Xin Wang Ji, against the rumors that it is Chi You's daughter, I am afraid that the ambitious Feng Long is very glad that he did not marry her.

Zhen Xuan sent a person to see Jing, who could provide all the information that Jing needed, and help Jing complete the things entrusted by Zhen Xuan, it was actually Jin Xuan.

The old people reunited, Xiao Yao was very happy, specially prepared wine and food, and drank a few glasses with Jin Xuan.

Xiao Yao asked, "Why are you in Gaoxin?"

Jin Xuan arrived: "Your Majesty needs news from Gaoxin the most now, so I came to Gaoxin to help Your Majesty collect news." ”

Xiao Yao smiled: "I thought that you and Xiaoxiao would become His Majesty's concubines, but I didn't expect that the two of you would continue to do the same thing." With your merits, it is easy to want to be a concubine, I think you are to Your Majesty...... I thought you would stay at the Purple Gold Peak, but it seems that I misunderstood. ”

Jin Xuan looked at Xiao Yao with a smile, didn't speak for a while, and slowly finished a glass of wine before saying, "You didn't misunderstand, I was indeed emotional." It was because I was emotionally attracted to His Majesty that I took the initiative to ask to leave. ”

Xiao Yao said in surprise: "Why?"

"If you are not emotional, everything is just how much you give and how much you get, Your Majesty has always rewarded and punished clearly, as long as I abide by my duty, I will not be treated lightly. But if you understand the situation, you will want more uncontrollably, but I clearly know that Your Majesty can't give it to me. Rather than me being tormented by demons, suffering and uncomfortable, and even making a big mistake and disgusted by His Majesty, it is better to take advantage of the love to avoid the end of the world. With my merits, I can get the favor of His Majesty for the rest of my life. ”

Xiao Yao sighed: "You...... You...... It's smart and ruthless! There are very few women who can give themselves a sea and a sky in your situation!"

"I also want to thank Your Majesty for your willingness to give me a sea and a wide sky! I know a lot of secrets, and if I were someone else, I would have to stay by my side to rest assured, but if I wanted to leave, His Majesty let me go!" Jin Xuan shook the wine glass, smiled, and said, "It's not easy to forget a man like Your Majesty!" But I believe that time will dilute everything, the world is so big, as long as I am still on the road, there is always a new hope, sooner or later I will meet a man who will make me forget Your Majesty. ”

Xiao Yao raised her wine glass and toasted Jin Xuan: "I wish you to meet that person soon!"

Jin Xuan drank the wine with a smile, said goodbye and left, taking Jing to collect the information Jing wanted.

On the 17th, the army of the harvest launched an active attack.

Gathering the morale of the previous three victories, the army pressed forward step by step, and Jumang defeated Xian.

In order not to fall into the predicament of being alone in the depths of the army, Feng Long ordered Xian to retreat, and Xian led the army to retreat to the north of Yeosu and join Feng Long's army.

Yujiang, who is proficient in water stations, guards the shore of Lishui, and Bei Shu does not dare to rashly order a forced pursuit across Lishui, and orders the army to be stationed on the shore, and the two armies face each other across Lishui.

This is the fourth time that Feng Long has been defeated by the harvest, Feng Long is very ashamed, but Feng Long is relieved: "The most important thing is to preserve the troops, there will always be gains and losses in the territory, people die but can not be resurrected, if the Xian Lone Army is allowed to fight deeply, the loss of the Xian and the Right Army is an irreparable defeat, as long as they live, I believe that they will only lay more and more territory." ”

Because Xian is a disciple of the Chishui clan, Feng Long was still a little worried, afraid that Zhen Xuan would misunderstand that he was reluctant to let his children take risks, so he ordered to retreat, but he did not expect Zhen Xuan to have the slightest doubt, and he understood and trusted him very much, Feng Long was relieved and also very moved, he did not choose the wrong one back then, and Zhen Xuan was indeed a Ming Jun worth following.

Feng Leong asked Jing to go outside for a walk.

There was no one around, Feng Long said to Jing: "Back then, although I thought that Zhen Xuan was good, but seeing that he was weak, I have always been determined to support him in fighting for the throne, fortunately, you kept lobbying me and urging me to make up my mind, thank you!" In order to make up his mind, Jing even said: "It is precisely because of his weak strength that you should choose him even more." Whether you choose Liang or Yu, it is the icing on the cake, you are just one of the many supporters, but if you choose 颛顼, you are the first, and you will be the only one in your heart. ”

Jing smiled: "I'm just analyzing the facts, you made the decision with your own vision." ”

Feng Long looked at Lishui in the distance and sighed: "You are always like this, you don't want to take credit for anything!" You came up with a plan to compete for the throne, give up Xuanyuan Mountain, and choose Shennong Mountain. You analyze it for me, Your Majesty has a shallow foundation, since he can't compete with Canglin and them in Xuanyuan City, it is better to simply show weakness, give up Xuanyuan City, go away to the Central Plains, and strive for the support of the Central Plains clan. With my help and your help, everything is promising. Waiting for the original decision, and with the support of the four families, with His Majesty being the eldest grandson of the Yellow Emperor and the ancestor, it is impossible for Xuanyuan's old clan to fiercely oppose his succession. Your lobbying and stratagem have struck me to decide to support Your Majesty. Your Majesty still thinks that it is my strategy, it is my insight that I am a hero, and I have always had a gratitude and trust in me, so that I can be a minister and friend with Your Majesty, and I have an outstanding status. ”

Feng Leong asked in confusion, "Jing, why don't you fight with me for anything?" He was born the same as Jing, one is the future patriarch of the Chishui clan, and the other is the future patriarch of the Tushan clan.

Jing said, "Why didn't I fight with you?" What I give away is what I don't want, and I really don't want to give it to you. ”

"You mean......" Feng Long frowned and thought for a moment, then reacted, "You mean Xiaoyao?"

Jing sighed and said, "You have always regarded me as a brother, but I am not fair to you. I knew that you had taken a fancy to Xiaoyao, but I robbed her in your house; I knew that you wanted to marry Xiaoyao, but I asked Feng Shao to help me rob the marriage. I have never done anything bad in my life, only these two things, but they are all for you. ”

Feng Long remembered the events of that year, and was still a little indignant: "When Xiao Yao regretted his marriage, I was uncomfortable for a long time, and I almost felt shameless. ”

Jing said, "I thought I could let go, but I overestimated myself, I'm sorry!"

Feng Long stared at Jing for a moment, and suddenly laughed: "I thought you were calm and generous, and you acted in a glorious manner, every time I saw you, I was ashamed of myself, it turned out that you were just a selfish and stingy man!"

Jing said: "When Xiao Yao and I got engaged, you were already fighting in Gaoxin, and the congratulatory gift you sent should have been prepared by the elders of the Chishui clan while cursing me, although we have corresponded in the past few years, we have never mentioned this matter, and there is nothing to do, but I hope to get your sincere blessing." ”

"Do you care?"

"I care. You know, it's impossible for me to get the blessing of my eldest brother in this life, and I don't want to be without your blessing. ”

Feng Long couldn't help but be happy in his heart, Jing compared him to Hou, it can be seen that he really sees him as a brother, but he said with embarrassment: "I will consider it." ”

Jing and Feng Long have been together day and night for more than 30 years, and he can see the narrowness in Feng Long's eyes at a glance, and he laughs: "You think about it slowly, anyway, there will be a period of time before Xiao Yao and I get married." ”

Feng Long didn't pretend anymore, and said with a smile: "To be honest, I was a little annoyed when I just learned that you and Xiao Yao were engaged, after all, it's hard not to think of the past, but more to admire your courage." Xiao Yao is not what it used to be, it used to be a treasure, everyone wanted it, but now it is a big trouble, no one wants to provoke, at least I never have the courage to touch it, so it will pass after a few days of anger, but I can't be happy, so I told the elders to prepare some congratulatory gifts for you casually. Feng Long patted Jing on the shoulder, "Don't worry, when you get married, I will personally prepare a congratulatory gift for you, as long as the dead man is not fighting with me, I will definitely find time to attend the wedding." ”

"Thank you!"

"What are you thanking me for? If you really want to say thank you, I should thank you. Everyone envies the head of the fourth family, but in my eyes it is a cage. In the past, as long as you were sure to listen to my nonsense, only you would not reprimand me for being bold, not only did you not reprimand, but you always supported me. Now, I finally broke the ancestral teachings, became an official in the court, became a general, and chased my dream! Jing, you helped me get what I really wanted, don't say that Xiaoyao doesn't belong to me in the first place, even if it's mine, you can take it, she is not what I want, but you are willing to exchange your life for it. ”

Feng Long hugged Jing's shoulder, smiled and sighed: "Actually, I should be glad that what you want is Xiaoyao, if you want the same as what I want, one mountain is not allowed to be No. 2, I'm really afraid that we can't be brothers." ”

Jing didn't resist physical contact as before, and quietly shook off Feng Long, after so many joys and sorrows, he knew that under the power and fame, in their position today, a hook of intimacy was not easy, at this moment, Feng Long and he completely trusted each other, so they both gave each other a distance that could kill each other with one blow.

As soon as Feng Long and Jing arrived outside the camp, Yu Jiang hurriedly came and said: "I caught a woman who sneaked into the barracks, the source is unknown, but it should be a nobleman of Gaoxin." ”

Feng Long was surprised and said, "Didn't you interrogate clearly?"

Yu Jiang had two scars on his face, and his expression was very embarrassed: "That woman is too rude, I ...... I...... Let's go to the general for trial!"

Feng Long said to Jing, "It's okay anyway, let's stop by and take a look!"

Jing did not object, followed Feng Long, and walked towards the camp in Yujiang.

From afar, I saw a woman who was tied up strongly, but she refused to give in, and still fired a water arrow on her left and a water blade on her right. The soldiers did not dare to kill her, and they could not abandon their duties, so they could only surround her in the middle.

Feng Long sighed: "If it is Gao Xin's meticulous work, this has already been caught, and it is still so public, it makes no sense!" But if she wasn't meticulous, why didn't she speak well?"

Jing had already recognized who it was, did not speak, and walked away as Feng Leong walked quickly.

When he got closer, he saw the woman's face, and Feng Long was stunned. This woman who was gagged and trapped with her hands and feet turned out to be Wang Ji of Gaoxin. Although Yujiang is from Gao Xinxi and the ministry, he has never met Wang Ji.

Feng Leong hurriedly asked, "Who gags your mouth?"

A soldier shouted: "It's a subordinate, she has been scolding Your Majesty and the general, so I plugged her mouth with a sweat towel." ’

Feng Long hurriedly waved his hand to untie the demon cow tendons, took off the sweat towel, and Ah Nian scolded: "Death, you black-hearted, ungrateful bastard!" And Yujiang, ungrateful bastard, get out of ......"

Feng Longchou's eyes and nose were wrinkled together, and he wanted to stuff the sweat towel back into Ah Nian's mouth, but he didn't have the guts.

Jing took a glass of clean water and handed it to Ah Nian: "Rinse your mouth first." ”

Ah Nian was stunned for a moment, didn't care about scolding, immediately took the cup, rinsed her mouth vigorously, and remembered that it was a sweat towel used by a stinky man just now, she couldn't wait to take a brush to brush her mouth from the inside out.

Jing seemed to know her very well and wanted to say, and said, "If you want to scold, wash up first and then scold, I'll take you to wash." ”

Ah Nian tilted his head and looked at Jing, the man in front of him had elegant eyebrows and eyes, a slender figure, if the empty valley was clear and the mountain stream was cultivating bamboo, it was calming to see, "I have seen you, you are the son of Qingqiu - the patriarch of Tushan." ”

Jing smiled and bowed his head: "It's all men here, it's not clean, please come with me." ”

Ah Nian obediently followed Jing away.

Feng Long was secretly glad that he had brought Jing here, and he ordered the soldiers not to leak today's affairs! Then, he immediately rushed to see Zhuan, this "Gao Xin meticulous work" he couldn't afford to judge, and if he wanted to try it, His Majesty had to try it himself.

Jing took Ah Nian to the camp where Xiao Yao lived, and handed it over: "Xiao Yao, guess who is coming?"

Jing lifted the curtain and invited Ah Nian in, his attitude was calm and his tone was natural, he didn't seem to feel that they were on opposite sides at all, Xiao Yao was only slightly stunned, seeing that Ah Nian was embarrassed, he immediately said to Xiaoxiao and Miao Pu: "Quickly prepare bathing utensils for Wang Ji." ”

Ah Nian stood at the mouth of the tent. didn't speak, didn't move, just stared at Xiao Yao. Obviously, she didn't expect to see Xiao Yao here.

Jing made a gesture to Xiao Yao to rinse his mouth, Xiao Yao took the green salt of Guixu and gave Fusang flower water to Ah Nian: "Rinse your mouth." ”

Ah Nian felt that she should refuse, but the stinky sweat towel bothered her even more, she struggled slightly, and began to busily rinse her mouth and wash her teeth

Jing looked at Xiao Yao suspiciously, Xiao Yao smiled and nodded, Jing lifted the curtain and left quietly.

After Ah Nian washed his teeth and rinsed his mouth, he just wanted to say a few cruel words aggressively, Xiao Yao said calmly: "You have a smell of sweat on your body, go take a bath." ”

Ah Nian asked himself in frustration and immediately went to take a bath with Xiaoxiao.

After taking a shower, changing into clean clothes, and returning to Xiao Yao's house again, Ah Nian felt that the momentum just now was gone, and the real emotions came to his heart.

Xiao Yao suddenly appeared in Wushen Mountain, snatched her father, snatched her brother, she hated Xiao Yao, and never wanted to call Xiao Yao's sister, but she always paid attention to Xiao Yao. Because of Wang Ji's noble status, he never dared to offend her in person, but he talked about her behind her back. Xiao Yao is different, she never talks about her right and wrong behind her back, and she doesn't even let the maid sue, but she dares to scold her. Dare to hit her too. When she has a conflict with Xinyue, Xiao Yao will not hesitate to defend her and teach her how to do it, she gradually accepts Xiao Yao's sister, and even likes this sister.

The father and daughter went to sea together, and the two sisters talked all night. When parting, she clearly agreed to see her in winter, and she even prepared a beautiful gift for Xiaoyao.

However, Xiao Yao didn't come!

She suddenly disappeared again. It's like she suddenly appeared in Wushen Mountain, without saying hello to Ah Nian.

Ah Nian hates Xiaoyao, not because she is Chiyou's daughter, for Gaoxin people, although they have heard that Chiyou is terrible, but how terrible it is has nothing to do with Gaoxin, Ah Nian hates Xiaoyao just because Xiaoyao missed the appointment, and he didn't miss the appointment with a hello!

Ah Nian looked at Xiao Yao, who was calm and calm, and suddenly felt very sad and angry. See! What a good life is for Xiaoyao! I don't remember promising her that I would go back to Wushen Mountain in winter and teach her to swim!

If it is replaced by Xiaoyao, at this time, she will definitely use calm and sudden to cover up her sadness and anger, and hide her care with not caring, but Ah Nian is different, when she is very angry, she has to vent the dissatisfaction in her heart.

Ah Nian shouted angrily at Xiao Yao: "I persuaded me not to blame you, saying that you are actually very pitiful. But are you pitiful there? I'm the most pitiful, a fake sister, tricking me into treating her as a sister, and Zhen Xuan, he actually ......" Ah Nian couldn't go on, his eyes were full of tears, "You two are ruthless liars!" I hate you!"

Xiao Yao said: "I didn't lie to you to treat me as a sister, I really want to be your sister, but I ......" Xiao Yao wanted to say that the sky does not follow people's wishes, but she feels that although it is sad that she can't be her father's daughter, she is also very good to be her father's daughter, since she likes to be her father's daughter, it is obviously inappropriate to say that God does not follow people's wishes.

Ah Nian suddenly stopped talking when he saw Xiao Yao say it, and asked loudly: "Just what?"

"At the time, I didn't know that my biological father was Chiyou."

"You found out later, so you don't want to be my sister anymore?"

Xiao Yao walked to the window and looked at the hills in the distance, not wanting to expose the weakness in his heart in front of Ah Nian: "It's not that I want to or not, but ...... Ah Nian, His Majesty Emperor Jun removed me from the Gaoxin genealogy clock, and did not allow me to take Gaoxin as my clan again. ”

Ah Nian opened his mouth, not knowing how to condemn Xiao Yao, after being removed, Xiao Yao was indeed no longer qualified to go to Wushen Mountain, thinking about the courtiers' contempt and vicious curses for Xiao Yao, Ah Nian's heart softened.

Ah Nian said, "Then you ...... You...... If you can't come to Wushen Mountain, at least you should say hello to me, I'...... I...... Still waiting for you. ”

"Are you waiting for me?" Xiao Yao was very surprised, and then realized that Ah Nian's attitude towards her was angry rather than disdainful.

Ah Nian snorted and said impatiently, "I'm not here to catch up with you!" Since you're here, isn't that black-hearted bastard there, I want to see him!"

Xiao Yao walked up to Ah Nian and sat down, and said: "I haven't known my life experience, and when I suddenly found out, my heart was very painful, from birth, everything is a lie, I don't know anything, but everyone hates me and wants to kill me!" I really didn't expect you to wait for me. I thought you would look down on me and not want to see me again. After all, everyone thinks that my mother is sorry for your father, and my father is Chiyou. Even now, I am still cautious in the face of you, for fear that if you don't agree with you, you will say the most hurtful words. I'm afraid that you will scold my mother, and I'm afraid that you will scold my father, and I'm afraid that you will scold me for being a sinister. ”

Ah Nian stared at Xiao Yao and said hesitantly: "I can't see your pain, and I can't see that you are careful." ”

Xiao Yao smiled and said: "When I was a child, I had no father or mother, no matter how painful it was, no one would comfort me, and crying would attract a vicious dog who bullied the soft and feared the hard, and I already liked to hide all my emotions in my heart." ”

Ah Nian was silent for a while, and his expression softened. He asked, "Is it the same as you?"

"Almost."

"Could it be that he suffered some grievances when he was in Gaoxin, but he didn't let me and my father know, so he will attack Gaoxin now?"

When he was in Gaoxin, he must have been wronged. But he attacked Gossin, and it was not for this reason. ”

Ah Nian was anxious and sad, and asked, "Why is that?" Why did he do it? Is there anything I am sorry for my father and me? Why would he do this to us?"

Xiao Yao didn't know how to answer, so he opened the curtain and said, "You have nothing to be sorry for me, this is a matter between me and your father." ”

Xiao Yao breathed a sigh of relief, walked out of the camp lightly, and let the two people who had not seen each other for decades talk alone for a while.

Ah Nian saw Zhuan, all kinds of tastes came to her heart, she didn't realize that the tears had fallen one by one, she knelt on the ground softly, crying and said, "I don't understand!" Father also said that everything has nothing to do with me, this is a matter between you and him, but how can it have nothing to do with me? You're at war! It will bleed, it will die, how can it not have anything to do with me?"

Zhen Xuan said, "How could Master let you sneak out? I'll send you back to Wushen Mountain. ”

Ah Nian cried and begged: "Brother Zhuan, don't attack Gao Xin anymore, okay?" Father is really hard, his hair is all white, his health is getting worse and worse, and it is difficult to even walk!"

Ah Nian grabbed the corner of Zhen Xu's robe, looked up at Zhen Xu, and tears rained down: "Brother Zhen Xu, I beg you!" I beg you!" In the past, whenever she begged her coquettishly, she would agree to no matter how difficult it was, but now, she was just expressionless and silent.

After a long silence, Zhen Yan finally spoke: "I'm sorry, I can't agree. ”

Ah Nian was sad and angry, and asked, "If Xiao Yao is still the daughter of her father, if she begs you, won't you agree?"

Zhen replied calmly: "Ten years ago, she had already forced me. Ah Nian, I made this decision as the king of a country, and I will never change it just because you or Xiaoyao begged me. ”

Ah Nianwa cried loudly, hating Zhen ruthlessly, but faintly relieved, it turned out that Xiao Yao had already begged Xiao Yao, and it turned out that Zhen Yao did not agree to Xiao Yao.

After all, he watched Ah Nian be born and raised, and he couldn't bear it, squatted down, and handed her the handkerchief: "I know you will hate me, and I know that it seems hypocritical for me to say this, but I really think so." Some things are between Xuanyuan and Gaoxin, and some things are between me and your father, but between you and me, you are still Ah Nian, and I am still your brother, as long as it does not involve the two countries, I will try my best to satisfy you if you ask for anything. ”

Ah Nian covered her face with a handkerchief and cried, she didn't know what to do, on one side was her father, and on the other hand, why could her father and Zhuan Xuan say so calmly, "It has nothing to do with you"? If it has nothing to do with her, why since the war between the two countries, Bei Shui no longer collects news for her, and Zhuan no longer writes to her? If it has nothing to do with him, why does her mother, who doesn't even know anything, ask her to stop worrying about it?

Zhen Xuan didn't coax Ah Nian as before, making her laugh, he sat next to Ah Nian and looked at Ah Nian silently. There are years of the past in the eyes, revealing sadness.

Ah Nian cried for half an hour, and the crying gradually became quieter.

Zhen Yan asked, "You said that Master's hair is all white, is it true?"

Ah Nian whimpered and said: "When my father announced that Xiao Yao was no longer Wang Ji, one day I went to see him, and found that he was seriously injured, and his hair was all white, and he had been slowly recuperating from his injuries, but I didn't expect you to send troops to attack us, and my father's illness has not improved...... I think my father is sad that his hair and body are not getting better. ”

Zhen Xuan said, "Since Master is seriously ill, why don't you accompany Master in Wushen Mountain and come here?"

Ah Nian immediately raised his head, stared at his teary eyes, and said, "I'm not here to find you!" I only knew you were here when I saw Xiaoyao. ”

"I know."

Ah Nian said: "I'm here to assassinate Yujiang and Fenglong. ”

Zhen Xuan was dumbfounded, secretly glad that Ah Nian was not here to assassinate Xian. Feng Long recognizes Ah Nian, and he will not hurt Ah Nian, Yu Jiang is loyal, and he feels guilty about Gao Xin, looking at Ah Nian as a weak woman, he will not be a killer, but the ice cube is offered, once he shoots, he will see blood.

Zhen Xuan said angrily: "Gao Xin is a general, and it is not your turn to be an assassin!" I think I'll have to write a letter to Harvest and ask him to strengthen the guards of the Five Gods Mountain. ”

Ah Nian began to shed tears again, and said with a whimper: "You know, the White Tiger Department and the Chang Xi Department did not choose a concubine from the two departments because they hated their father, but they chose a mother who was from a humble background, deaf and dumb, and they have always refused to obey their father, and they have always looked down on me. Over the years, the army has been busy fighting, and my father's health has not been good, so they began to make a fuss, shouting that my father should establish a prince, and my father has a daughter for me, Qinglong and Xihe do not propose to make me the prince, and the White Tiger Department and Changxi Department resolutely disagree, saying that my ability is mediocre, stupid and stubborn, and I am overwhelmed, and they ask to choose one of my father's sons and nephews to be the prince, and my father has not expressed his position, and they quarrel every day. I'm not uncommon to be a prince, but I don't necessarily see them going to trouble my father every day. They said that I was mediocre, stupid, and unusable, and I thought that I had to do something big to show them, so I planned to assassinate Yujiang or Fenglong. Yujiang is a traitor to our Gaoxin, and Feng Long is the general who leads the troops, no matter who I kill, they have to be convinced!"

Zhen said: "Don't do such a stupid thing in the future!" You don't have to worry about the White Tiger Department and the Chang Xi Department, they have a long-standing conflict with the master, and it's not because of the princess and you. Don't feel sorry for what they said, thinking that it was because of the princess and you that Master was in today's predicament. ”

Ah Nian will be skeptical: "Really?"

"Really! It's just that the master could indeed use the choice of concubines to alleviate the conflict, but the master didn't do it. ”

Ah Nian pursed her lips, and tears were about to fall again: "That's still about us." ”

Zhen Xuan said: "Master refuses to choose a concubine because of his obsession, it shouldn't be for your mother, so he refuses to choose a concubine!" It's none of your business, you know?"

Ah Nian thought for a moment and nodded with tears in her eyes.

"Ah Nian, you have to believe Master, sometimes it seems to be a dilemma, maybe you just want to weave a spider's web." Zhen pointed to the cobwebs outside the window, "The spiders build webs, and they seem to be trapped in the middle of the web, but in the end, it is the butterflies that are flying around that are bound by the web. ”

Ah Nian seemed to understand whether he understood or not, pondered for a while, and then cried again, "Why are you attacking Gaoxin?" If you don't attack Gao Xin, I can ask you earlier, you tell me how it is possible, I don't use to assassinate Yujiang, and I was gagged by a stinky man's sweat towel......"

While patting Ah Nian's back, he pondered: With Master's means, the White Tiger Department and Chang Xi Department will definitely not be pleased, but since the matter of Lichujun has been raised, Master must face it. Because this is not only a matter that the White Tiger Department and the Changxi Department care about, but also the Qinglong Department, the Xihe Department, and all the Gao Xin Clan and the courtiers are concerned about. Except for Ah Nian, no one is justifiable, but Master has never cultivated Ah Nian as a monarch...... If the master does not take this step well, Gao Xin will be disrupted, and the safest way is naturally to choose a capable and reliable husband for Ah Nian, make Ah Nian the prince, and carefully cultivate Ah Nian's children. Does Master want to choose to harvest? Could it be that this is the reason why Harvest has been attacking aggressively lately?

He really can't guess Master's thoughts, although he has been by Master's side for more than 200 years, he still can't see through Master, just like he can never see through Grandpa, maybe this is the emperor, and it will always be difficult to predict their thoughts.

In order to assassinate Yujiang and Fenglong, Ah Nian tossed for a few days in a row, and he didn't close his eyes at all last night, and he was tired of crying at this time, and the tight string was loosened, and he fell asleep with a whimper.

He beckoned to the maids and asked them to serve Ah Nian to rest.

He walked out of the tent and followed the path pointed out by the guards, heading towards the mountains and forests.

Under the sunset, Jing and Xiao Yao sat on the bluestone by the stream, Xiao Yao chattered about something, Jing kept smiling and listening, Xiao Yao suddenly kissed the corner of Jing's lips, and without waiting for Jing to react, she sat back as if nothing happened, looking away with a smile.

He stepped on it heavily, and the dead branches under his feet snapped, making a crisp sound.

Xiao Yao immediately turned around, and when he saw him, he blushed weakly: "Brother." ”

Jing stood up casually and asked, "Has Wang Ji left?"

"She fell asleep, and I saw that she was very tired, and I didn't want to toss her any more, so I ordered the maid to serve her and rest in Xiaoyao's tent." Xiaoyao, you can sleep with Miao Pu for one night tonight. ”

"It's okay for me and Ah Nian to sleep in a camp!"

Zhen Xuan didn't want Xiao Yao to have too much contact with Ah Nian, and said, "No, I'll let Xiaoxiao take care of her, and you go and spend the night with Miao Pu." ”

Xiao Yao said, "Okay." ”

Jing saw that he seemed to have something on his mind, and took the initiative to say, "I'll go back first." ”

Xiao Yao smiled and waved at him.

He walked slowly along the stream, Xiao Yao followed him, waiting for him to speak, but after waiting for a long time, he just pondered as he walked.

Xiao Yao had to take the initiative to ask, "What are you thinking?" Is it because of Ah Nian?"

"I'm worried about the people of this land." Zhen Xuan sighed, "I was born in Xuanyuan and grew up in Gaoxin, and sometimes, I can't tell whether I see myself as a Xuanyuan person or a Gaoxin person. As the monarch of Xuanyuan, I should be very happy to see Gao Xin in chaos, which is a great thing for Xuanyuan to take advantage of, but I am not happy at all, but sincerely hope that Master can come up with a proper way to solve everything, and not let this land be ravaged by war. ”

Xiao Yao blinked: "Who is ravaging this land with war now?"

Zhen Xuan was annoyed and patted Xiaoyao, "Although I provoked the war, Master and I are very restrained, so far the war has not affected the common people, but if Gao Xin really has civil strife, those people will not have the restraint of Master and me, they will only be driven by greed and destroy everything frantically." ”

Xiao Yao was horrified in her heart: "What kind of mess will happen?"

"It's useless to tell you, I don't want to say it!"

"You...... Hmph!" Xiao Yao was angry, turned around and wanted to leave, "I'm going to find Jing." ”

Zhen Yan grabbed her: "Don't allow it!"

His hand was like an iron hoop, and Xiao Yao couldn't help but scream: "It hurts!"

Zhen Yan hurriedly let go of his hand, Xiao Yao rubbed his arm, "What's wrong with you?" It's too much!"

Zhen Xuan pursed his lips tightly, did not say a word, and walked faster and faster.

Xiao Yao saw that he was in a very bad mood, and hurriedly ran to chase him: "Okay, if you don't want to say, I won't ask." Slow down, I can't catch up with you......"

Zhen Xuan stopped his steps suddenly, and Xiao Yao looked at him cautiously.

He looked to the northwest and whispered, "I still remember when you were in the Chaoyun Hall of Xuanyuan Mountain, you said......"

Xiao Yao quietly waited for Zhen Xu's next words, but Zhen Yan didn't speak again, Xiao Yao asked, "What's wrong with me?"

He smiled and said, "It's nothing. ”

Zhen Xuan's smile was already seamless, and he couldn't see his true mood anymore, and Xiao Xiaohu looked at him suspiciously.

Zhen Yan took Xiao Yao's hand, dragged her to the tent, and said with a smile: "Go back and rest, I'm fine, but I was disturbed by Ah Nian's sudden appearance." ”

Xiao Yao didn't follow Zhen Xuan, she looked at him and said, "I don't like you to attack Gao Xin, and I will sarcastically attack you from time to time, but I don't understand you completely." Although you were born in Xuanyuan, your time in Gaoxin is far greater than Xuanyuan, this land makes you who you are today, in terms of feelings, I am afraid that you will have more feelings for Gaoxin than Xuanyuan. I know you brought me out this time, just to make me not so nervous and worried, you want to tell me that you haven't changed! You are the emperor, but you are still the same sad boy as ordinary people, you have lost your relatives and suffered yourself, so you will never take away other people's relatives at will and make others hurt. I don't know what will happen to Gosin, but I know you'll stop the worst from happening. ”

Zhen Yan slowly turned his head and looked at Xiao Yao with a smile, this time the smile was very soft, very pure, and really happy.

Xiao Yao smiled embarrassedly and shook his hand: "Let's go back!"

Early in the morning, when Ah Nian woke up, he found himself on the cloud chariot flying to Wushen Mountain.

She was unwilling, and felt that she couldn't treat her like this, but she vaguely felt that this was the best way to say goodbye. Everything that can be said has been said, and the rest is not what can be said, or it is useless to say it!

Ah Nian touched the Fusang hairspring wrapped around her wrist, this is the assassination weapon she asked Jin Tianshi to cast for her, yesterday, she was so close to Zhuan, but she didn't want to use it at all.

Fenglong's army attacked slowly, and the battle lasted for ten years, and the Gaoxin land it occupied was not even a tenth of it, but if one day, Xuanyuan's army arrived in front of Wushen Mountain, would she want to use Fusang Gossamer to assassinate Zhuan?"

When I didn't understand the lovesickness, I had planted the lovesickness, just understood the lovesickness, and tasted the lovesickness bitterness, I thought I had swallowed the bitterness, but I didn't expect that there was more bitterness.

If you think about it carefully, the love for Zhuan Xuan has been nine bitter and one sweet from the beginning, and to this day, it is all bitter, but I still can't give it up.

Ah Nian bent down, covered his face with his hands, and tears fell silently. It turned out that when he could cry, it was because he knew that someone was listening, hoping that he would feel distressed, and when he was alone, he would only choose to cry silently.
