As soon as Su Jinyao's mind moved, she shouted: "It's looking for me, looking for me." Gu Xuebin knew the news of my disappearance. ”

"Impossible." After the second prince finished speaking, he whistled at the night owl that was diving in the air, but he didn't expect the night owl to spread its wings and fly over.

The second prince stretched out his arm, and the night owl stopped on his bracer. He also shook his wings and looked quite energetic.

Su Jinyao was stunned and asked, "What is impossible?" Isn't this Gu Xuebin's bird? She knew Gu Xuebin's ability to resist the bird, so she thought that he was looking for her.

The second prince smiled and hooked the beak of the night owl with his finger, and then said: "He can indeed control birds, and he is also a middle master." But he wasn't the only one who used birds to send messages. And if I want to control a bird with Gu, it's also extremely easy (qíng). ”

Only then did Su Jinyao remember that the second prince's control over Gu worms was unprecedented. So he might really use Gu worms (cāo) to control birds.

Su Jinyao shrugged her shoulders and said, "Then this bird is also a messenger, you can see what news it has." However, if it is really Gu Xuebin looking for me, you have to send me back immediately. ”

"No, it won't." After the second prince finished speaking, he took out a small piece of white lambskin from the night owl's ankle ring. Unfolded it and glanced at it, and his face immediately changed.

Su Jinyao was also shocked, and had a vague bad premonition, and asked, "What's the matter?" Are you looking for me? ”

"See for yourself." After the second prince finished speaking, he actually handed the white sheep skin to Su Jinyao.

Su Jinyao hurriedly took it, and saw that there were only eight words on it: Qingfan rebellion, the prince personally conquered.

Su Jinyao was a little panicked when she saw the words "Prince Pro-Zheng", and asked anxiously: "What is Qingfan?" ”

The second prince took a deep breath and said, "There are eighteen states in the southwest border, and the largest one is Qingfan. Also...... My mother's hometown. ”

"You mean, Gu Xuebin was sent to attack the state where your mother lived back then?" Su Jinyao felt that this matter (qíng) was not simple, so she hurriedly said, "Send me down the mountain." Immediately, immediately! ”

"Okay, come with me." The second prince did not refuse. Instead, he stretched out his hand and grabbed Su Jinyao's wrist, and took her to turn (shēn) and walked out of the basin.

But after a few steps, he stopped again and looked back with a thoughtful look.

Su Jinyao became even more anxious, and urged: "You can't go back on your word, I'm going down the mountain now." ”

"Not really. Wait for me for a while. The second prince let go of Su Jinyao's wrist and walked back, glanced at the fire on the ground, and kicked up a pile of earth and stones, covering the fire.

Su Jinyao can understand this action, after all, this is the paradise of the second prince, and it is where his dream lies. Of course, one negligence should not allow the fire that has been forgotten to be extinguished to burn here.

However, after extinguishing the fire, the second prince did not immediately take Su Jinyao down the mountain. Instead, he picked up a branch next to him, pushed away the embers that still carried the spark, and dug it up vigorously.

This time, Su Jinyao knew what he was going to do, so she ran back anxiously and angrily, and said loudly: "When is it, you still get this?" Can you starve to death if you don't eat a meal? Will it? ”

"But......" The second prince raised his head and looked at Su Jinyao, and said seriously: "But if you don't eat it this time, you won't be able to eat it again in the future." ”

After a pause, the second prince said again: "This is the last meal I have for you and me here." From then on, each of them has his own master. ”

After speaking, the second prince dug hard again. dug out the few sweet potatoes buried inside, then picked up the best-looking one and handed it to Su Jinyao, and asked, "Do you eat it?" ”

"I don't eat it." Su Jinyao was so angry that she slapped it over, knocked off the sweet potato, and said, "Take it, can you eat it on the road?" I'm really anxious. ”

The second prince was not angry, picked up another sweet potato, peeled it by himself, and asked, "Are you so worried about the imperial brother?" ”

"Or else? Should I worry about you? He is on a campaign, and when he goes on a campaign, he fights and dies. Su Jinyao remembered the famous saying "one will make ten thousand bones dry". Although she didn't know if Gu Xuebin had killed anyone, in Su Jinyao's mind, he definitely hadn't been on the battlefield.

And that kind of picture of corpses all over the field and rivers of blood is in front of Gu Xuebin, what should he do?

Although Su Jinyao knows that he is a dignified prince and a prince, these always have to be experienced, and after experiencing the baptism of war, the whole person will be trained to be truly domineering and sharp.

But Su Jinyao didn't want Gu Xuebin to go that way alone. If she had to go through this, Su Jinyao wanted to be by his side (shēn).

It's better for two people to sword together (cāo) than for one person to face a dry bone, right?

The second prince raised his head and only said lightly: "It's very sweet and fragrant, if you don't eat it today, I'm afraid that you will never be able to eat it again." ”

"Okay, you eat, I'll help you peel it." Su Jinyao was so angry that she squatted down, picked up a sweet potato and peeled it quickly.

She felt that it was estimated that the second prince would not leave if he didn't finish eating these sweet potatoes. And if he doesn't leave, he really can't get out.

So in order to let the second prince eat less and eat faster, Su Jinyao peeled the sweet potato skin vigorously, peeling off the large pieces, leaving only a small part of the 瓤 (ròu) in the middle.

And there is also a sweet potato that is not fully ripe, the outside is ripe, and there is a hard core inside. Su Jinyao was stunned, and Suo (xìng) sent the hard core to the mouth of the second prince.

The second prince didn't think about it, so he ate the unripe sweet potato core with Su Jinyao's hand. Chew crunchy in your mouth.

The second prince didn't raise his head until he finished chewing the sweet potato core and swallowing it, smiled at Su Jinyao, and said; "It's so sweet. This is the sweetest and most fragrant sweet potato I have ever tasted in my life. ”

After speaking, he stood up (shēn), grabbed Su Jinyao's wrist with his big hand, pulled her and walked out.

Su Jinyao followed, as anxious as grass had grown. I don't care if this mountain road is rugged and difficult to walk, no matter how big the second prince's footsteps are, she tries to keep up.

"Jinyao......" The second prince suddenly called Su Jinyao like this, and then said: "I'm going to enter the formation in a while, you remember how to go out." When you come back, just go the other way around. ”

"Come back?" Su Jinyao shook her head and said, "I won't come back." ”

"Yes, I know. I'm saying, once you have the results, whoever wins or loses, you come back and see. I've given this to you. ”

After the second prince finished speaking, he pointed to a pine tree that appeared in front of him and said, "This is the beginning of the battle." There are two ways to get in and out. One road is a trail, which is only allowed to walk, and is relatively close; A road is available for horse-drawn carriages to travel to. When you came, you were in a carriage. The person who drove the car was called Geng Bin, and he was a close follower of me (shēn). No one has been here except him. ”

After speaking, the second prince pulled Su Jinyao and turned the pine tree. As he walked, he recited his self-made mantra, what "three on the left and one after one" and "six into the right two".

Su Jinyao remembered it carefully. With this mantra, just use it backwards when you come in.

Until it was completely dark, the woods were foggy, and there was no moonlight to see.

The second prince's big hand, which was originally holding Su Jinyao's wrist, loosened slightly, slid downward, and grabbed Su Jinyao's hand instead.

Su Jinyao only felt that his palms were full of sweat, and his big hands were still rough and full of calluses, so he hurriedly pulled back.

The second prince instead held her tighter and said, "Jin Yao, this is not an ordinary mist, it is a miasma barrier I have set up, you don't leave me half a step, otherwise it will be dangerous." I (shēn) have medicine to ward off miasma, and the closer you are to me, the safer you are. ”

"Then you still hold my wrist, why bother holding my hand." Su Jinyao struggled hard again, trying to shake off the second prince's hand.

But I heard him say: "Jinyao, it's good to have your concern." How I wish one day, you would be so nervous about me? But I also knew that it was impossible. ”

Su Jinyao bit her lip, and suddenly had a bad premonition. Raising his head and looking forward, the fog was too big to see the road ahead, and even the back of the second prince was blurry and covered by the fog one step away.

Su Jinyao tried to call him "Cang Qianmi", and then asked, "Do you know something?" Or are you waiting for this moment today when you brought me here? ”

"It's not." The second prince's tone sounded very serious, and he replied, "I just want to save your life, but I never thought of threatening anyone. I also just learned about the prince's expedition, but I know ...... Qingfan's purpose is not simple. ”

After speaking, the second prince squeezed Su Jinyao's hand even harder, held her little hand tightly in his palm, and then said, "Jinyao, remember what I say now, and remember every sentence." ”

"Well, you say." Su Jinyao didn't struggle anymore, let him hold his hand a little painfully, but just listened carefully while walking.

The second prince pulled Su Jinyao and turned another boulder, and then said, "I will ask Geng Bin to send you to Qingfan, and it will be fine to have my token on the way." But after arriving at Qingfan, don't send troops, don't fight with Qingfan's soldiers. Su Jinyao was stunned when she heard the words of the second prince, and her steps couldn't help but slow down.

Although he could only see the outline of the second prince's back in the fog, he said to the outline of his back: "Are you saying that Gu Xuebin's army drove to Qingfan but couldn't fight?" So what are you waiting for? If the fighter plane is delayed, who will be responsible? ”

"Wait for me, wait for me to pass." The second prince said: "I will ask my father for a holy decree, and I will quickly send troops to Qingfan to respond." You must convince the royal brother to wait until I pass. Until then, don't go to war. ”

"Why? You should give me a reason. Although Su Jinyao said this, she had already begun to believe the words of the second prince inexplicably in her heart.

She just needs a reason to convince Gu Xuebin now.

The second prince glanced back at Su Jinyao. In the mist, he couldn't see Su Jinyao's face (qíng) and facial features clearly, so he had to sigh and say, "The reason is that if you want to believe me, I also believe that you will be able to convince the imperial brother." ”

After speaking, the second prince paused in the mist, pulled Su Jinyao closer, looked down at her at close range, and then said with a serious face: "There is a reason that cannot be said, I want to rot it in my stomach." And what I just said to you, you must not say it to a third person, including the imperial brother. ”

No matter how smart Su Jinyao was, she really didn't understand what the second prince's words meant.

After thinking about it for a while, Su Jinyao asked, "You mean, let me wait until you arrive in Qingfan before fighting together (qíng), can't you tell others?" ”

The second prince nodded solemnly and said, "Yes, this is the case, only you and I know." Don't tell the third person when it comes. And I can assure you that I will not do anything to hurt you (qíng), never. ”

Although Su Jinyao was puzzled, she still nodded. She has never been a person who asks questions. What's more, with the guarantee of the second prince.

Originally, his promises and assurances should be the most untrustworthy, but Su Jinyao really believed it, and he believed it without reason and explanation.

Intuition, in addition to this, Su Jinyao didn't know why she made such a choice.

When the second prince saw Su Jinyao nodding, he smiled.

Even though there was no moonlight, even though the surrounding miasma was foggy, Su Jinyao could still clearly see that the smile of the second prince was brilliant from the heart.

At this time, she realized that the second prince, Cang Qianmao, was really handsome, with a tall (shēn) shape, strong muscles (ròu), a perfect combination of strength and beauty, and a face that was resolute and beautiful. The facial features are sharp and angular, and the vision is deep and ...... 多 (qíng).

"Jinyao, it's the first time you've looked at me like this." Gu Xuebin pursed his lips, his smile became brighter and brighter, and he said sincerely: "I dare to say that since you have known that you have been together for the past few days, even if you meet every day, you have not seriously seen me once." And today, your heart looks at me. ”

Her heart...... glanced at him.

Su Jinyao's eyes put a question mark. But the next moment, the second prince stretched out the index finger of his left hand and pressed it horizontally on her eyelids.

He had thick calluses on his fingers, which were not at all the hands of a prince who should have them. But it definitely fits his image of being fierce and handsome.

His hand was also very large, and one finger was across Su Jinyao's eyes, gently pressing her eyelids on both sides, but she couldn't open her eyes.

And the second prince's right hand was slightly opened, passing through Su Jinyao's fingers and clasping her ten fingers tightly.

Su Jinyao didn't move, her breathing was slightly chaotic. The hand that was not grasped quietly shrank into the sleeve, and had already touched the silver needle on the sleeve.

"Jinyao, don't move, I just want to take a good look at you. Just let your heart look at me more. The second prince's voice sounded above Su Jinyao's head, which showed that he did not mean to lower his head.

Su Jinyao hesitated in her heart, and finally let go of the silver needle that her fingers had pinched.

With her heart, look at him more!

Su Jinyao thought about the words of the second prince, nodded slightly, and said, "I will remember your smile at that moment just now, it was very bright and beautiful, as warm as the sun; There is sunshine in your heart. ”

"Yes, there is sunshine in my heart, and in the palace (diàn) where the sun shines, there is a person." After the second prince finished speaking, he gently took away the hand that was lying on Su Jinyao's eyelids. said softly: "In five days, I have never crossed the rules, I am worthy of my conscience and the imperial brother." But the parting is imminent, and I don't want to leave a single trace of regret. ”

After speaking, his arm slammed and pulled Su Jinyao into his arms.

Su Jinyao let out a "yes" sound, opened her eyes and struggled. She obviously guessed what this guy was going to do, but she slackened again, and he caught the loophole.

The second prince's arm was like an iron tong, tightly encircling Su Jinyao's waist, and her waist was about to break, and she couldn't break free.

When Su Jinyao went to touch the silver needle again, the handsome face of the second prince had already been suppressed, the tips of the noses of the two were already attached to each other, and the breathing could be heard. The lip flap is less than an inch away, and both of them can feel the breath coming out of each other's mouths.

Su Jinyao narrowed her eyes, the chill of Zhou (shēn). The fingertips pinched the silver needle and was ready to pull it out, and if he made one more move, it would be stabbed.

But the second prince only stopped at this awkward and hot distance, his eyes were firmly fixed on Su Jinyao's eyes, staring at her without moving.

In the time of two breaths, Su Jinyao counted the eyelashes of the second prince, but he didn't move, and he didn't kiss the so-called parting kiss.

Just when Su Jinyao couldn't hold her breath and was about to struggle again, the second prince let go of the hand that was bound to Su Jinyao's waist, picked up her little hand again, and said lightly: "Okay, enough is enough." You are nothing more than that, you don't have peerless beauty, but you just rely on a stubbornness that makes me a little unwilling. ”

"Huh?" Su Jinyao was stunned, didn't he want to kiss himself and leave no regrets? Why did you suddenly come to such a sentence?

The second prince smiled "hehe" and said, "Otherwise? I kissed it, and you stabbed me with a silver needle, and then the qíng we got along with these days was gone, and you stopped believing me, and everything went back against each other? ”

After the second prince finished speaking, he pointed to another stone in front of him and said, "Remember, use this stone as a mark, and take eleven steps after passing around the right side, it will be considered out of the formation." ”

Su Jinyao nodded blankly, but she was still thinking about the rollercoaster-like nervousness (qíng) just now.

He, the second prince, this guy Cang Qianmiao, has never let her guess.

The second prince still walked in front, holding Su Jinyao's hand tightly, and bypassed the stone together.

One-step, two-step, three-step...... Eleven steps later, the long-lost moonlight fell. The moonlight can finally shine through the branches, illuminating the road ahead, and at the same time, the back of the second prince is clearly illuminated. A section of the road in the fog just now, there was a scene in a dream, which seemed to be real and illusory.

Su Jinyao was even a little skeptical, what did the second prince say just now? What was done? Why is the moonlight in front of her clear, but her heart is still confused?

"Stupid girl, I know you don't have me in your heart, never." The second prince's voice was a little hoarse, and he said: "So the palace (diàn) in my heart is locked, and you who don't know the importance and are angry and opposed to each other are locked in." ”
