As night fell, the sound of horses' hooves rang out, and a man and a horse swept quickly, bringing up patches of dirt over the horses' hooves.

On horseback, Xia Xiaoba clutched the reins, and kept whipping in his hands, each whipping made the horse scream and run faster.

In the hazy night, Xia Xiaoba ran desperately, the cold wind came and whirred, and the cold night wind blew numb, but he didn't stop, not even a moment of rest.

His face was already wet, and he only had a cry of anger in his heart, and there was only one thought in his mind, that is, to go back to the capital.

Only now did he understand that the departure of the prince and the fifth brother was because of the war, and his father and mother did not return to the capital because of the birthday of his aunt.

The war in the northwest is urgent, and the prince must have gone to the northwest, as well as the fifth brother, all the guards of the prince, and even the father.

They all went to the northwest to kill the enemy, leaving him alone, and he was abandoned. Only he was stupid enough to believe that they would come back. For the first time, Xia Xiaoba hated himself, why was he not smart enough and not careful enough, if he could pay close attention to his parents, he would definitely be able to find their abnormality.

recalled the eyes in which my mother looked at her when she left, with sadness and reluctance; Xia Xiaoba's tears flowed down his eyes, and his hand holding the reins tightened.

The boy doesn't flick when he has tears, but he hasn't reached the sad place.

He must go to the northwest and fight with the prince and his brothers.

He didn't want this kind of protection to stay, even if it was death, he didn't want to be a coward hiding behind his parents.

I don't know how long I ran, the horse's physical strength was exhausted, and the speed slowly weakened, and Xia Xiaoba was also blown by the cold wind, and his brain gradually became clear.

Eventually, as soon as the reins were pulled, the horse stopped where it was.

Looking at the vast night, I couldn't see the five reflections. Xia Xiaoba's face was cloudy, and he deeply understood in his heart that forcibly driving forward at this time would only bring more accidents.

Looking at the darkness behind him, Xia Xiaoba hesitated and struggled for a moment, and finally sighed and commanded the horse to turn around and walk back.

In the Xiao Mansion in the middle of the night, several courtyards were lit by candles. Xia Xiaoba's sudden departure made the Xiao family sleepless all night.

In Fangfei Courtyard, the candlelight is flickering.

Because she couldn't sleep, Xiao Ming wrote a few medical books in the small study to barely dispel the boredom caused by Xia Xiaoba.

Leave and leave!

Maybe it's really urgent, Shi Tingyu and they already have a lot of things, and they often don't see people, maybe they will come back tomorrow, and they will celebrate the New Year together.

Xiao Ming suddenly thought of Shi Tingyu's elusiveness before, and he was relieved of his departure this time.

If you come back, I will forgive you for not saying goodbye.

But somehow, because of Xia Xiaoba's actions today, the sense of loss in her heart became stronger and stronger, and the excuse of comfort became untenable.

She has a bad premonition in her heart~~

I'm afraid that person will not come back.

Alas!

I would have lit the moon with my heart, but the bright moon shone on the ditch.

In the midst of countless lamentations and losses, Xiao Ming slowly closed her eyes.

In the blink of an eye, the next day, the sky appeared a little white and slowly scattered into the night, and gradually, the earth could barely see vague shadows.

The ice skates condensed at night are like translucent crystal pillars, hanging in rows on the windows, and the fine glazed windows are dyed with a layer of white cold mist, and the cold wind is blowing, and the bare trunks are stained with layers of frost.

It's getting colder.

A sturdy figure quietly jumped down from the high courtyard wall, and walked straight towards Fangfei Courtyard in the dark night.

The visitor cautiously entered Fangfei Courtyard, he did not go to the main entrance, but took a detour to the back of the house, looking for a glass window, raised his hand and was about to knock on the window, but unexpectedly his foot hurt in his stomach.

At the bottom, he suddenly realized that there was an extra dog beside him at some point, the black fluff was integrated with the surrounding volume, quietly approaching him, and biting his foot with a mouth, and a pair of cold eyes stared at him tightly.

Everyone who came was scared out of the sky.

"Ouch!" Feeling the deepening of the strength on his feet, he cried out in pain, hurriedly shook his feet, and whispered: "Mao Mao, let go, it's me." ”

The visitor pulled down the mask on his face, revealing a familiar face.

It turned out to be Xia Xiaoba.

At this time, Xia Xiaoba, who was bitten by a dog, was sad in his heart, the horse was broken by him last night, he walked all night and rushed back, he wanted to do it quietly, and then set off back to Beijing, but he met Maomao.

Xia Xiaoba raised his foot and wanted to kick Mao Mao away, but he didn't kick it.

Xia Xiaoba.....

Maomao, you're a god!

"Loosen your mouth, it's going to bleed!" Xia Xiaoba was in a hurry, and he didn't let go, he wanted to hurt him to death!

Mao Mao stared at Xia Xiaoba with a pair of eyes, without the slightest intention of letting go.

How dare you come here, it doesn't matter who you are, bite it and talk about it.

Loosen, what does that mean? The dog said he didn't understand.

"You can't let it go." Xia Xiaoba had nothing to do, so he had to point at Maomao and threaten.

You're going to be beaten up like that.

It's a pity that Mao Mao just doesn't let go.

A man and a dog are holding each other like this, and they are about to fight.

"Who's out there?" Xiao Ming's inquiry sounded in the room.

The interaction of one person and one dog woke up Xiao Ming in her sleep, and she hurriedly put on a shirt and got out of bed, opened a slit in the window and looked at the blurred figure in front of her.

"Xiao Ming, I'm Xia Xiaoba, tell Maomao to let go." Xia Xiaoba cried with joy when she saw Xiao Ming! Even the volume has increased a lot.

He's excited, savior!

Maomao let him go. Xiao Ming looked at the person in his eyes but secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, Xia Xiaoba came back, he didn't leave,

Should she be happy, Xiao Ming thought.

Hearing his master's order, Mao Mao was relieved, but he squatted still, staring at someone.

"Do you have a problem?" Xiao Ming asked, it's not dawn in the morning, you have to climb the window, you deserve to be bitten.

Xia Xiaoba stood outside, and he was not embarrassed to enter the house, mainly because he was stared at by a big dog, and he didn't dare to make any moves.

Now his leg still hurts, and if he dares to move, Mao Mao will really bite his neck.

Stared at by a wolf dog whose strength and wisdom coexist, he is also the master of Yali Mountain!

"I was leaving, but I forgot to tell you something, so I'm back." Xia Xiaoba said embarrassedly, after staying in the cold wind for a night, he calmed down, his sanity finally returned, and he knew that he couldn't just leave.

"Oh!" Xiao Ming responded, looking at Xia Xiaoba speechless.

The sense of loss in my heart slowly crept up in my heart.

So, do you still want to go?

"Let's go, I'll take you somewhere." I want to chat with more like-minded people about "{?$article_title?} ", WeChat pays attention to "excellent reading literature", chatting about life, looking for confidants~
