Thin lips gently hooked.

The black boots stepped on the ruins, he stopped half a zhang away from Shen Yijue, the Mo knife flickered with a cold light, like a ghost blade of Shura, sweeping towards the other party's head without emotion-

"Second brother!"

There was a shout from behind.

The blade stopped at Shen Yijue's neck.

The sharp blade could cut off a strand of his sideburns.

Shen Yijue's face was gloomy, and fine beads of sweat were faintly visible on the corners of his forehead.

"Second Brother ......"

Nan Baoyi stepped forward and gently grabbed Xiao Yi's arm.

She stared at Xiao Yi and shook her head seriously.

Shen Yijue is not only the confidant of Empress Shen and the leader of Jin Wuwei, but also the eldest son of the famous Shen family.

Not to mention......

She glanced at the quiet smoke not far away.

Boss Han seems to have a good impression of this man.

is reasonable, and Shen should not be killed.

Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows.

He turned the Mo knife around like a weighing, then put it away, dragged a small pestle from nowhere, and sat up cross-legged: "Your brother's business, you have to give an explanation to this king." Shen Yijue, will you deal with him, or will this king come? ”

Shen Yijue clicked out another mouthful of blood.

He raised his sleeve and wiped his mouth, his expression gloomy, and he did not make a sound.

Xiao Yi sneered: "Do you think that this king really doesn't dare to do anything to you?" ”

Shen Yijue slowly adjusted his breathing.

After a while, he dragged his injured body, sat on the edge of the ruins, and said softly: "When my brother was young, he was not an unreasonable person. ”

He looked up at the night sky: "When my brother was young, he was modest and polite, not only was he born with pink carving, but he was also very accomplished in reading, and he was already a famous prodigy in Chang'an at a young age.

"My aunt heard about his talent and took him into the palace to accompany her. The palace is flashy, and his aunt prefers him, and gradually, he has developed a self-respecting character there.

"Everything is the best, everyone has to respectfully call Shen Xiaolangjun when they see him, he is even more noble than the prince. How noble is it?

Because his aunt doted on him, she even took the emperor to please him, and the emperor even held him in his arms, sat on the dragon chair with him, and accepted the worship of the hundred officials.

When he was fifteen years old, he finally moved back to his home. Our Shen family only produces military generals, and as the only child who takes the civil official route, he is loved by the elders. Coupled with the fact that he didn't grow up around when he was young, we subconsciously indulged him even more.

"When I was a teenager, although I was very spoiled, I was only a little picky about food, clothing, housing and transportation, and my character was still very good. All the changes started when he went to Jinguancheng on behalf of his aunt. ”

Shen Yijue spoke, his eyes falling on Han Yanliang.

The beauty stood under the hexagonal tassel marquee in the verandah, with her big sleeves swaying lightly, graceful and graceful.

His eyebrows softened a little, and he continued: "Ah Di can get anything he wants, and he thinks that the same is true for women.

He wanted it, so he spent the Spring Festival with her. When he had enough, he returned to Chang'an to marry another noblewoman. However, he regretted it.

He found that he preferred the cold smoke to Wei Chuchu. He wanted to turn back, but he forgot that people are not objects that come and go when they are called.

But he couldn't tolerate it, there were things in this world that he couldn't get. So even if he exhausted his calculations, even if he gambled on his conscience, even if he wanted to inflict pain on others, he still wanted to get that woman to satisfy his desires.

"It is not his fault alone, but the fault of all people. If King Yong wants to kill him, it is better to kill the rest of us first. ”

Outside the gallery, the water is murmuring.

The marquee lanterns are swaying, and the sparkling water is crocheted to create a dream-like beautiful spring night scene.

Xiao Yi has no interest in Shen Yichao's past, let alone pity.

He laughed: "Wrong is wrong, what do other people do?" Shen Yijue, you'd better pray that he doesn't let this king catch him, otherwise, this king will still kill him. ”

Putting down the cruel words, he pulled up Nan Bao's clothes and left with a cold face.

Shen Yijue frowned and covered his chest in severe pain.

Blood spilled up his throat again, fishy and sweet.

The cold smoke came slowly.

The girl held the thin pipe in her fingertips and condescendingly handed him a handkerchief.

She sat down on a well-established beauty, and exhaled a deep puff of smoke ring: "You also know that he is selfish by nature, and if you take your life to protect him, he may not be grateful to you." ”

Shen Yiju held a handkerchief.

The handkerchief was clean and lightly scented with tobacco.

He pressed the corner of his bloody mouth and looked at her helplessly: "I always tell you not to smoke, but you don't listen." ”

Han Yanliang just smiled: "Who am I, general, I want to listen to you?" ”

Shen Yi was speechless.

He had to bow his head and quietly wipe the blood from his face.

Cold smoke shook his feet.

She took another puff of cigarette, but she didn't feel that the taste of tobacco was so intoxicating.

It's all because of this old iron pimple, who always whispers in her ear that smoking is not good.

She spat out a random puff of smoke rings and asked, "Do you like me?" ”

Shen Yijie was silent for a moment and nodded: "I like it." ”

Han Yanliang laughed twice, kicked off the embroidered shoes, and hooked him with his feet: "You like me, but you can't pursue me, right?" ”

She came in her sleep when she heard movement.

I only had time to put on embroidered shoes, and I didn't wear socks.

The toes were round and white, and the red dancome was carefully painted, rubbing Shen Yijue's shoulder, but it did not disgust or offend him.

He picked up the embroidered shoes and put them on her feet seriously: "I like you, and I plan to spend the rest of my life protecting you." However, unless Ah Di takes the initiative to give up, otherwise, I will never pursue you. ”

The cold smoke looked down on him.

This old iron pimple, honest and stubborn.

has lived under Shen Yichao's aperture for half his life, but he does not feel aggrieved at all.

She tugged at her lips, smiled softly, and muttered, "Who wants you to protect?" ”

She turned her head and knocked the soot on the beauty's lean.

The sparks fell into the dark water one after another, illuminating the koi inhabiting the bottom of the water for a moment, and then quietly disappeared without a trace.

……

The other side.

Nan Baoyi and Xiao Yi returned to the dormitory.

The girl muttered something, took off her embroidered shoes under the porch, trotted to the bed, rolled into the quilt, and rubbed her eyes tiredly: "Second brother, don't do things in the middle of the night, I'm sleepy......"

She was frightened when she went up the mountain and down the water today, and now her legs and stomach are still sore and trembling.

Xiao Yi responded lightly.

The maid prepared hot water for him.

As he was bathing behind the screen, he suddenly noticed a small golden Buddha statue in the dormitory.

The area around Luoyang advocates Buddhism, and almost every household believes in Buddhism, so Buddha statues are often placed in the house and worshiped at any time.

It was past midnight and the lights were slightly dim.

The golden Buddha statue gradually distorted in his eyes, and the compassionate and dignified smile was more like a mockery.

Xiao Yi frowned.

He washed himself up, put on a loose middle coat at random, walked to the Buddha statue and looked at it for a long time, and suddenly picked up a piece of cloth to cover it.
