The night was hazy, and a figure in a green robe lay quietly on a tall tree that reached the sky, almost blending in with the treetops in the moonlight.

Murong Tianlian pillowed one hand behind his head, and held a small wine jug in the other, looking at the coiled moon hanging in the sky, and the seven stars around the moon hanging on one side.

Half an hour ago, Beigong Yu and Xia Xiaoxiao's horses walked down the road under him.

He stared at the dark blue sky for a long time without taking his eyes off, and only then did he pick up the wine jug in his hand and take a sip, one foot on the other, swaying leisurely, the dark green robe was raised in the wind, and the occasional sleeve robe was gently brushed onto his demonic and delicate face, adding a layer of mysterious beauty.

I don't know how long it took for a gust of wind to lift the clouds under the moonlight, blocking out all the light, and a light breeze passed by my ears.

A man in ink suddenly appeared beside him, standing on tiptoe on the treetops, looking down at him with lowered eyes, and a disdainful laugh came out of his mouth, "Now that I see her again, I finally don't have to call her sister anymore?" ”

Murong Tianlian was not surprised by the man who suddenly appeared, there was no expression on his face, and he didn't even leave a corner of his eyes for the other party, his thin lips only lightly spit out a cold word, "Get out." ”

The low laughter, accompanied by the hoarseness of his voice, even if he didn't see his face, it was not difficult to guess that his face was amazing, he was not angry when he heard Murong Tianlian's words, his hands were around his chest, and he was playing with a twelve-bone fan in his palm, "Helian Chi can say a lot to Xia Xiaoxiao tonight, don't you worry that Beigong Yu can dig something out of his mouth?" ”

Murong Tinglian just stared at the dark color above his head, and didn't speak again, the man in ink saw it, and there was a low laugh, too, Murong Tianlian himself didn't care, what was he worried about?

It's just that

The man's eyes were slightly lowered, and his gaze traced down the almost invisible road below to the end, the corners of his mouth curled in an inexplicable arc, but the smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes.

The wind swept by, the clouds lifted, the silver light poured down through the veil of tulle, and the earth returned to its bright color.

The man in ink had disappeared with the wind, and Murong Tinglian raised his hand again and poured a sip of liquor into his mouth, and the silver-white moonlight fell on his slightly drooping eyelashes, falling in an arc, and he couldn't see his emotions clearly.

Night, noisy silence, Yue Guo is located on the border of Yuehua, tonight, I am afraid that there will be no more Yue No. country, maybe in a few decades later, it will be precipitated into a page of history that is difficult to turn over, that seven hundred years ago, who can remember now?

The night gradually turned dark, and when Beigong Pheasant Li rushed outside Yuecheng, the people of Beigong Changting immediately withdrew after learning that he had released Beigong Yu, Chu Muruo was injured, and even the men and horses he led also lost most of them.

Chu Muruo, who was bandaging the wound at the military doctor's office, saw Beigong Pheasant Li slowly walking towards her, and immediately sneered, "Don't go to your sweetheart, this princess really dares to gamble with my life." ”

Beigong Pheasant glanced at her lightly, and then looked at the sky outside, Chu Muruo saw that his heart was even more angry, "What, seeing that I didn't die, you still want to chase her?" ”

"It has nothing to do with her."

Beigong Pheasant threw down this sentence and walked out again, ordering people to assemble the troops, Beigong Changting deliberately missed the time to meet him, at this time it was undoubtedly to meet Beigong Yu, heh, Beigong Changting and Duan Moqing, a racking of their brains to try their best to help Beigong Yu, a calculation behind the back of Beigong Yu, who wins and who loses in this game of chess is destined to be a mystery, as long as he still has chips in his hand, he doesn't care about this time.

Dividing line

There are countless wonders in the world, and from south to north, it can always attract countless people from the rivers and lakes to see a wonder.

Yue Hua You Yanze, Nanming Gu Duwu, Jin State Xuanlian Wei, Wu State Xizhou Shu, Chaoyang Changjie City, Yue Kingdom Qianlong Sha, each place can be called a unique wonder in the world, but if a person really wants to go to every place one by one, how can it be so easy?

The thousands of ridges of sand in the country of Yue, the summer wind, at sunset, the twilight in the distance is dim, the remnant sun is like blood, along the thousands of ridges of sand from the ground one after another to the place of flames, as if burning in the fire, but mixed with a little cold before the night comes, the border is like a gold-edged sunset, at this time it is round, radiant, dazzling eye mask like a dream.

Thousands of ridges of sand and thousands of ridges of sand, as the name suggests, by the thousands of sand ridges piled up of wonders, Xia Xiaoxiao standing on a high sand ridge, overlooking a vast desert, mixed with fine sand particles of the wind blowing by the side, she raised her hand, almost visible sand with the breeze slid through her fingers, as soon as she held it, the palm of her hand retained a few grains of gold.

She has been to almost anywhere since she was a child, mixed in the West Street of the capital when she was a child, and entered the palace when she grew up, and even later finally escaped from the capital, ran out of Yuehua, and then from Nanming to Yueguo, although the road is long, but there is no moment when you really travel to the mountains and rivers, all day long is either to hide this or to hide, where to get so many leisurely thoughts.

Qianlongsha, Xia Xiaoxiao first heard that she knew this name from Ji Xiaoer's mouth, that guy was always much more knowledgeable than her in these aspects, and his eyes were always shining when he talked about it, using all kinds of idioms he could say to describe the scenery, at that time, she had imagined all kinds of similar pictures in her mind, but she never imagined that it would be such a beautiful scenery in front of her that even a brush could not depict.

Her palm loosened slightly, and the wind came in from between her fingers, blowing away a few grains of golden sand lying quietly in her palm, and she wanted to grab it again, but a big hand reached out from behind without warning, holding her, ten fingers interlocked.

Then his body leaned directly behind him, and his other hand was naturally unable to wrap around her waist naturally, and he lowered his head to her ear, and said a little muffledly, "What are you thinking?" ”

Xia Xiaoxiao was not too surprised, judging from the time of Yuecheng to Qianlongsha in the past half a month, Beigong Yu would almost not let her stay alone, and even once she caught a glimpse of her in a daze, she would come over to interrupt her thinking.

"Huh?"

Seeing that Xia Xiaoxiao didn't say anything for a long time, Beigong Yu couldn't help but remind, the hand holding her waist tightened, and he couldn't help but wonder if she was thinking about Beigong Pheasant again whenever she was in a trance in the past half month.

Xia Xiaoxiao was in pain, and finally turned his head and glared at him, and said angrily, "I'm wondering how you survived and led the soldiers and horses into Yuecheng." ”

Beigong Yu breathed a sigh of relief, and his mood was obviously a little happier, "Curious about what this is doing?" ”

"The next time something like this happens, I'll be able to guess if you're really dead or fake!"

She deliberately accentuated the last word, which had the meaning of hating him because she had been deceived.

She was in front of him like this, tilting her head slightly, staring at him with her cheeks bulging, but he loved her vigorous and open teeth and claws, pinched her face, and said with a low smile, "Xiao Xia'er, with your words, I can cure you of a great crime of rebellion." ”

Sure enough, Xia Xiaoxiao frowned, her face still showed some unnatural fear, but she said unhappily, "Why do you want to punish me again?!" ”

Beigong Yu squeezed her hand for a moment, and Xia Xiaoxiao realized that he was just joking with her, but it was no wonder that she was so unfamiliar with Beigong Yu from the beginning, even if so much time had passed, that fear had never really come out of her heart.

Suddenly remembered the fire that broke out in the barracks at that time because of the dice cup Beigong Yu, she chuckled in her heart again, her eyes dodged, and she cautiously changed the topic, "That said, you haven't answered me yet." ”

It was a little unnatural, and the hand he held in his palm wanted to be withdrawn, but Beigong Yu held it tighter, and sighed slightly, "Don't move, hold it for a while." ”

Xia Xiaoxiao didn't move, his chin fell on her shoulder, and he looked at the distant scenery with her, and then he spoke, "As early as a month before Helian Chi planned to raid, he had already thrown an olive branch to Murong Tinglian, first allied with Wu State, and then planned to borrow troops from Murong Tinglian's forces."

"But isn't Murong Tinglian from the Red Kelou? Where did the soldiers and horses come from? ”

It's still 160,000, and even if some ill-intentioned Jianghu forces want to cultivate it secretly, it can't easily escape the eyes and ears of the imperial court.

"He really doesn't have an army, and he doesn't have the 160,000 men and horses, that's my people."

Beigong Yu said lightly, Xia Xiaoxiao's mouth opened wide, his face was surprised, he couldn't help but laugh when he looked at her, "All this is just Helian Chi himself walking into his own trap." ”

However, it is indeed because of his plan, Yue is not a big country in these countries, not to mention the soldiers and horses, but the victory is rich in resources and the treasury is full, and it is not difficult to guess his next plan after the next step after the Wu State, he brought 300,000 soldiers and horses, and spent two months, while dealing with Helian Chi, he secretly transferred 160,000 horses to Murong Qianlian, and then he came to make a deal with Helian Chi.

It took a long time for Xia Xiaoxiao to sort out a few words and speak, "Then why did the green peacock help him?" Aren't you afraid that he will really use those 160,000 soldiers and horses to fight you? ”

Who is Murong Tilting? After Xia Xiaoxiao's observation, he is definitely an out-and-out villain in the eyes of losing money!

Beigong Yu thought for a moment before she realized that her green peacock was referring to Murong Tianlian, and her eyes were a little gloomy at the moment, "Helian Chi has something that he needs to investigate, and by the way, I found him, why don't you want the silver you earned for nothing?" It didn't hurt him to do it well. ”

Murong Qianlian has always been not interested in these battles, which he and Beigong Pheasant Li both know, otherwise he will definitely become an existence that both him and Beigong Pheasant Li find tricky, but he didn't expect him to take the opportunity to attack Xia Xiaoxiao.

She didn't seem to notice the change in Beigong Yu's eyes, and asked, "Even if Helian Chi really believes in that peacock so easily, as you said?" 160,000 troops, he didn't doubt it? ”

"Doubtful?" He sneered, "At that time, my men and horses have already forced them back to the border of the Yue Kingdom, if he doesn't try to fight back, my army will break through the barrier in less than half a month, and seeking Murong Tilt is the only way for him to retreat." ”

How could Helian Chi not doubt it at that time? But he was too conceited, not to mention that he had always believed that Murong Tilting was the person sent by Beigong Pheasant, in other words, in his subconscious and Murong Tilting's misdirection, the 160,000 men and horses he deeply believed that it was the reinforcements given to him by the Luminous Kingdom, and he was even more convinced that he had the handle of the Luminous Empire and those unknown secrets in his hands, and Chu Boyuan would not really give him up.

He looked down at her, as if he was really listening to him very carefully, but now that Helian Chi had been captured, what was the use of her knowing this?

In just a few months, maybe every next step has been calculated from the moment Beigong Yu came out of the palace, Xia Xiaoxiao is not sure what role she plays in these bureaus, and the seemingly inconsequential words that Helian Chi said to her but linger in her mind, after Beigong Yu goes back, will she dig something out of his mouth?

Such thoughts were only fleeting, and she added lightly, "I suddenly feel that you people have too many bad games, and this move is very dangerous." ”

It's very dangerous, if Murong Tianlian really turns around to deal with him, he just moves a stone to hit his own feet, if Beigong Pheasant doesn't miss, Beigong Yu may really die in the hands of Beigong Pheasant, for example, Beigong Changting didn't come over in time, maybe they can't retreat from Yueguo, and Beigong Pheasant will not let him go.

But it just so happened that these were all expected by him, and he never took risks.

Every step is calculated, every step is carefully planned, and every step is speculating on people's hearts, so, is it that including her, those things from the beginning have never been hidden from Beigong Yu? And he's been just pretending not to know about playing a game of cat and mouse with her?

He knocked down his eyes and said lightly, "Win in danger." ”

The remnants of the light in the distance were gradually approaching the horizon, the wind was getting stronger, and the golden sand was raised, and the direction of the wind could be clearly seen.

Regarding these tactics used in the court or in the war, she didn't ask him and wouldn't say, she asked, and she didn't plan to say too much, but he could see that Xia Xiaoxiao was indeed suspicious of his fraudulent death.

"Is it so pretty?"

He followed Xia Xiaoxiao's line of sight, Qianlong Sand, not so much a painting, is more in line with the poetry, the flat desert is thousands of mountains, and the sunset returns to the wild goose ridge.

"Well," Xia Xiaoxiao replied lightly, looking at the sunset in the distance and couldn't take his eyes off, "It's a pity that there is no paper and no pen." ”

In fact, even if she had pen and paper, she would definitely not be able to draw, but she suddenly wanted to regret it.

Beigong Yu's hand slightly pinched Xia Xiaoxiao's little hand, which was the hand that loved to hold a paintbrush, and said softly, "What to do after painting, after the world is unified, I can often take you to the places you want to see." ”

Xia Xiaoxiao was stunned, noticed his words, and took a look.

"Beigong Yu, do you still want to take me back to the palace?"

In fact, it's not that hard to guess, he has been chasing her for so long, and he has trapped her for so long, can she really think that he will just let her go to the free?

She turned her head and looked at Beigong Yu's eyes, he just lowered his eyes slightly, and his previous tenderness frowned tightly when he heard her words, "Xiao Xia'er." ”

There was little willingness or reluctance in her tone, but he knew she was certainly unwilling to go back with him.

Xia Xiaoxiao didn't speak anymore, his hand was withdrawn from his palm, he sat down on the spot, and said lightly, "You go back first, I want to watch the sunset for a while." ”

Xia Xiaoxiao felt that she should really think about it.

The tent they set up here was not far away, because they almost went around half of the Yue country to Qianlongsha, and the Helian Chi people were still in his hands, so it was impossible to risk following them, so Beigong Yu let all the soldiers and horses Lu Wuxian and Ye Ji lead the army to take Helian Chi, including several important ministers of the Yue Kingdom, back to Yuehua first, and at this time, he also brought a few people from Wuxilian Camp with him, and there was the Beigong Changting who had been following them since he came out of the Yue Kingdom.

Beigong Changting has been coming out of the tent for a while, looking at the sunset in the distance, the wild geese are setting in the west, and the tens of thousands of sand ridges above the land boundary are crossed by the red sun with a layer of gold.

Helian Chi became a prisoner overnight, the second day followed by the turmoil of the people of Yueguo, the great cause of hundreds of years of Yueguo was subverted overnight, Beigong Yu directly led people to break through Yuecheng that night, Beigong Pheasant Li's people were still a step late after all, the two armies directly had a short fight, she took Chu Muruo as a hostage to force him to retreat, and the second day Shuangyi both withdrew from Yueguo, the matter was a foregone conclusion, Beigong Pheasant Li had to take Chu Muruo to withdraw to Nanming, and although their Yue Guo is now greatly damaged, but it is not safe, Beigong Yu should have immediately returned to Yuehua at this time. He personally arranged everything, but he just sent someone to escort Helian Chi back to Yue Hua, and sent all the soldiers and horses back with him, while he himself accompanied Xia Xiaoxiao here.

Beigong Changting first wondered why Beigong Yu had to go around almost half of the Yue Kingdom to Qianlongsha, but when she saw the scenery in front of her at this time, she seemed to understand a little.

When the last trace of the remnant sun hit the ground and merged with the dull yellow desert, the golden light was shining, swallowing the sky and the fertile sun, gradually dyed the sky red, and the clouds on the sand ridge were also dyed with a layer of crimson, saying that it came out, in fact, she didn't go far, but it was enough to see the two people not far away.

The figure of the two was on the sand ridge, and the silhouette cut out by the remnant sun came into view, the woman sat quietly on the sand dune, looking at the sunset that was gradually sinking in the distance, and the man in a dark robe quietly looked at the woman's side face behind him, and then the breeze blew, bringing up some golden sand, forming a tulle in the air, she couldn't see the look in Beigong Yu's eyes, but inexplicably it should be gentle and soft, and even spoiled.

Beigong Yu has spoiled her since she was a child, tolerated her willfulness, tolerated her arrogance, and always responded, this is his favor for her, but after following him for so many years, she has never seen Beigong Yu look at someone quietly with this appearance.

No, maybe there is, maybe she noticed it a few years ago, from the moment Xia Xiaoxiao entered the palace, his eyes on Xia Xiaoxiao have always been different, but at that time she was still too disdainful of being young, and buried the big and small differences she had noticed in her heart, not thinking about it, deliberately ignoring it.

There was a fine and dense pain in her chest, but she suddenly felt that there was something missing, so that the pain disappeared in an instant, and the rest didn't feel much, she didn't even feel sad, at most it was just a pity, so much love left by the green years, maybe in Beigong Yu's eyes, it was just a sister's dependence on her brother, and now no matter what, time can never go back, and she can no longer follow him behind him and call him Brother Yu as before, didn't even call him Beigong Yu big or small.

Beigong Changting stood in the wind for a long time, until the weather had blown a cool breeze, the huge round wheel in the sky left the last ray of light, and the bright stars rose in the vast expanse, she gradually pulled back her thoughts, Xia Xiaoxiao also sat in the wind for a long time, she saw Beigong Yu put a coat on her, and seemed to say something in her ear, and then walked towards her.

The night view of Qianlongsha is also extremely beautiful, the sun has just set, the starry sky soon emerges, her legs are a little numb, she simply sat down, her legs crossed, her hands on the intersection of her legs and ankles, the posture is casual, the martingale who has been standing behind her is happy to see it, and she came forward to persuade her to go back, she just said a faint two words to blow the wind to send away.

Beigong Yu approached, glanced at the entourage who had been by her side almost every inch all these days, and wrinkled his eyebrows beside her with a little reproach, "It's windy at night, and you've never been in good health, why don't you go in?" ”

Beigong Yu gave a look, and Yingle glanced at Beigong Yu, regardless of his prejudice against Beigong Yu, he was not as good as his master, but the queen's body and bones really couldn't stand the cold, so she turned around and went back to the tent to get a coat out.

When Martingale handed over his coat with both hands, his eyes fell directly on Beigong Yu, but at a glance, he quickly took it back, but Beigong Yu captured something from it very accurately, he didn't say much, walked to Beigong Changting's side, and sat down next to him, almost in the same posture as her.

Beigong Changting glanced at him, and then looked in the direction of Xia Xiaoxiao, only to find that Xia Xiaoxiao's gaze hadn't swept over this side from beginning to end, just sitting with her chin resting on her knees, looking into the distance and not knowing what she was thinking, she laughed and said, "Sister-in-law looks in a bad mood?" ”

"She just doesn't want to stay with me."

The corners of Beigong Yu's mouth hooked a self-deprecating arc, and followed the gaze of Beigong Changting and finally fell on the woman who looked more and more petite under the blue sky, but there was a rare softness and entanglement in her eyes.

Beigong Changting was stunned, half-kowtowed his eyes, a low smile on the corner of his mouth, and he couldn't see the expression in his eyes, "It turns out that it has always been the imperial brother who is forcing it." ”

"Forced?"

Beigong Yu is obviously not full of this word, but it seems to be true. The world is big, Xia Xiaoxiao wants to go to her rivers and lakes, and she also wants to go behind his back to find her young man Ruyi Langjun, don't let her go, she stays by his side almost every moment of worry, let her go, Beigong Yu also knows that once she leaves, she may really forget about him, what else can he do except force?
