In the summer of the ninth year of Yuanping, the weather was hot and hot, and the sand and dust rolled up were hot.

The wind and sand in the desert are cold, and the sand and dust raised by the wind hit people's faces, causing pain. The smoke of the desert is lonely, unreachable in the vast world. The yellow sand of the desert is like snow, stretching into the distance as far as the eye can see, disappearing at the end of the sky.

The city wall of Beiyanmen Pass stands tall in the afterglow of the setting sun, and the dark purple flag fluttering on the wall, the golden Wei characters on it flicker in the setting sun. Purple Banner ......

Under the big tree in the distance, there were two horses, a man and a woman, the man was only about twenty years old, two sword eyebrows, the eyebrow bones were slightly high, but the eyes were extremely rare dark blue, high nose bridge, thin lips, a pale face, white clothes were blown by the evening wind, fluttering with the wind, this person was obviously not from the Great Jin Dynasty. The woman on the white horse next to her was a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl, very good-looking, with long eyebrows and sideburns, a pair of apricot eyes with twelve points of agility, a straight nose and cherry mouth, and snow-white skin also wrapped a layer of golden brilliance in the sunset.

Looking at the handsome flag from afar, the little girl frowned: "Purple? Wei? Which of the emperor's relatives is guarding the city here? ”

The man smiled: "Wei Peng." ”

The little girl was surprised: "The handsome flag he holds?" I didn't think King Xuan would let him stay outside for so long. ”

The man's expression was always gentle: "He has been in Mobei for eight years, and when Wei Jiao got married, he went back to stay for a year, and it is estimated that he will not go back for a while and a half." This kid, his kung fu is really good. ”

The little girl pouted, "How old are you from him?" That's it, this kid, this kid. ”

The man laughed and stretched out his arm to pat her on the head: "I'm just younger than him, and he has to call me uncle when he sees me." ”

The little girl gave him a blank look: "Bully." Uncle, is his martial arts good or my martial arts better? ”

The man thought for a moment and replied seriously: "It's good for him now, but you have your master's old monster here, and in less than a year, you will be able to tie." ”

A smile appeared on the corner of the little girl's mouth, and the man looked at the sunset on the horizon and urged: "It's getting dark, if you don't enter the city again, the city gate will be closed in a while." You haven't received all the gifts today, why don't you hurry up and receive that one?

When it was dark, Wei Peng took people to inspect the city defense again, the war has slowed down a little in the past two years, but it is always not to be taken lightly, the personal guards around him are Wumo and Xiyan, on a day like today, these two people dare not relax. Wumo and Xiyan have been with him since childhood, practicing martial arts and living together, kung fu is naturally not bad, and he also knows Wei Peng very well, at this time of year, Wei Peng will be depressed for a few days, especially today, sometimes he will drink a little, and one year he even quarreled with Yang Xiaohou and then started to fight, so that the two of them lay on the bed for two days before going to the ground.

In fact, they all know that all this stems from the evaporation of Lian Ruixue in the world, after she disappeared out of thin air that year, the son of the world has changed, every year on her birthday, he is like this, today is her birthday, if there is no change in the year, today's capital must be very lively, what gift will the prince give her? If there were no changes in the past, after today, they would have to pay a wedding ceremony to discuss the marriage date.

They seem to know this now. At this time, Wei Peng was sitting at the table in the flower hall, a few simple dishes on the table, there were more wine bottles than plates, he stepped on the round stool next to him with one foot, the dark purple coat embroidered with gold silk auspicious cloud patterns, and the hem of his clothes had been dragged to the ground; He was playing with a white jade hairpin carved with a delicate orchid, and if she was still there, she would have bloomed like an orchid in the hollow valley. If she was still there, he would definitely pin this hairpin to her hair today and spend his life curling her hair. But she is like evaporating from the world, and there is no news of her in the world. She's so ruthless that she can't even give herself the slightest hint. Is she no longer alive? His heart twitched violently every time he thought of it, and if that was the case, he would spend his life waiting for them like that...... That kind of indescribable affection - the love that she was destined from birth.

Because he stays here all the year round, the Shizi Mansion was built in the Beiyanmen Pass, although it can't be according to his regulations, but it is also complete, and there is even a school field to facilitate his daily practice.

Suddenly, the voice of washing inkstone came from outside the door: "Shizi, Mr. Hua is here, can you see it?" ”

Mr. Hua? Wei Peng was slightly stunned, why did this product come so late? Still picking today? However, it seems that it is impossible not to see it yet. I sighed in my heart: "See." And he commanded the remnants of the mat to be taken away.

After a while, Xi Yan led a man in white and a girl in from outside, which were the two uncles and nephews outside the city before evening. Seeing one more person, Wei Peng still couldn't help but look at it, and the girl also looked at him quietly behind Mr. Hua, the man in front of him, well, a nineteen-year-old little man, had a look on his face that no one was close to, his body exuded a trace of coldness, and the purple robe embroidered with python patterns and auspicious clouds on his body was the uniform of the prince. The angular face, the skin is a healthy wheat color, the two thick sword eyebrows, and a pair of phoenix eyes flashed with a hint of coldness, turning around on her, and then all the convergence, the corners of the mouth slightly hooked upward, and a faint smile to Mr. Hua.

Why are you laughing so reluctantly? The girl couldn't help but slander.

This dissatisfaction fell in Wei Peng's eyes, and he couldn't help frowning slightly, and asked Mr. Hua: "Mr. Hua is late this year, who is this girl?" ”

Mr. Hua smiled: "This is my niece, I have always promised her to give her a gift on her birthday, but it is the time we agreed, this time there are more things, I can't do a gift for her, and she will interfere in the affairs of the family sooner or later, so I simply take her with me, and go to the city restaurant to celebrate her birthday later." Xue'er, this is the famous Xuan Shizi. He patted the girl lightly on the head, with a doting face: "Haven't you always wondered what he looks like now?" How can you see the deity and not ask the son to see the courtesy. His voice was not loud, but Wei Peng and Wumo Xiyan could hear it clearly.

Wei Peng frowned, what does this mean?

Wumo looked at Xi Yan: What is Mr. Hua trying to do?

Xi Yan: This girl is also today's birthday?

The little girl Xue'er frowned slightly, but she still stepped forward to give Wei Peng a blessing, and said: "I have been looking up to the name of the prince of Xuan for a long time, and I have always been curious. He pouted his lips to his uncle and said, "Uncle Xiao should deal with me, this can't be counted as a birthday gift for me, you have to make it up to me when I go back." ”
