Chapter 160: Looking back, everything is empty
The marriage of the third prince Wei Sa is imminent, and the streets and alleys are talking about this happy event of the royal family, but what makes these people most puzzled is the bride of the third prince, why is it not the established princess who chooses Princess Xianyue, but a little-known little palace maid.
For this reason, the three princes submitted to the lord of the country, Wei Ying, asking for a three-month reduction of taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and the lord gladly agreed, and as soon as the good news spread, the people were grateful and worshiped the discussion of this palace maid.
In the bazaar, the imperial list posted everywhere conveys the good news of heaven, and at this time, someone is facing Huang Chengcheng's imperial list, I don't know whether it is happy or worried.
After a long time, Bai Chuan touched the soft sword in his waist, sighed, and left the crowd.
Walking into a tavern, Shirakawa asked for two pots of good wine, four plates of hot and cold side dishes, and poured himself a drink, the wine was clear and sweet, but when it fell into his stomach, it turned into a burning fire, spicy and spicy, and a little sour.
She's finally made it this far.
Looking at the wine syrup in the cup, Bai Chuan didn't know why he went down Xinglin Mountain, came to the capital, and walked this way. Knowing that she is a decisive woman, knowing that she will do whatever it takes to achieve her goals, knowing that she is coming, and witnessing all this in person, it will be difficult to accept it in her heart.
He knew everything, but he still couldn't help but want to come over and ...... Come and see her.
The royal family of the Great Qi Kingdom stipulates that the bride is not allowed to meet with the groom on the night before the wedding, which means that Wei Sa will not go to see Ruoxi tonight. This is the great time for him, perhaps, he just wants to see her, and he has come here today because of ...... So.
The second pot of wine was also empty, Bai Chuan was slightly infected with a vague drunkenness, he had never poured a thousand cups, and today he could not escape the heavy heart, the essence of the wine, pinched the nerves, casually threw a few pieces of silver, left on the table, the bartender has not thanked him, his people have flown away.
Fighting with swords and wine, how many grievances and drunken dreams, suddenly looking back, everything is empty.
The few words that the master left before leaving, still beating in his eardrums, he didn't know at first, until today, more than ten years later, he understood that everything is empty.
He assisted Ming Jun, but Ming Jun lost his life, he doted on the princess, but the princess married another woman. None of the things he cherishes and loves can be accompanied.
He had also fantasized countless times about fighting with a sword and wine, but such a chic and wanton life had never had half a blue eye for him, he was like a lonely guest on a journey in the desert, coiled, dazed, haunted and blocked by an invisible city.
His grudge with her, she ...... I don't understand.
His affection for her, she ...... Not accepted.
His guilt for her, she ...... I don't know a little bit. Too many secrets weighed heavily on Shirakawa's heart and shoulders, so heavy that he couldn't breathe. Shaking his head, Bai Chuan had already paced to an inn, walked in, and let Xiao Er open an upper room and go to rest.
He was so tired, he had never been so tired, he just wanted to find a place to lie down and lean on.
However, he had only rested for less than half an hour when he heard the undetectable sound of the window. A faint aroma rushed to the tip of his nose, and he opened his eyes and moved his lips slightly, "You're here." ”
"I can't see you like this the most, Bai Chuan, you really are a lover." Bai Jiang, who was dressed in white, spoke coldly to this man who had made him love since he was a child.
Shirakawa pretends to be a dead man and ignores him. Bai Jiang looked angry, his bewitching eyebrows narrowed slightly, and he took a step forward, a little angry, "Don't lie to people here, Bai Chuan, if you are a lover, why have you ignored me all these years!" The way you look now is just to show me how sincere you are to the princess! So that I die, right? ”
The last sentence has almost become a roar.
Bai Chuan moved his jade-like fingers, and seemed to be a little weak, "You are wrong, Bai Jiang." This time you were completely wrong. He sat up slightly, his dark, thick hair hanging down behind him, like the best waterfall hanging upside down.
"You can always guess what I'm thinking, but this time, it's really wrong." Bai Jiang stood straight, trembling slightly because of some nervousness, Bai Chuan looked at the man who had followed him for more than ten years, and suddenly felt a little unbearable, but he still did not hesitate to say the truth.
"I'm not trying to use this to provoke you to die with this, but ...... I'm really moved by her, how can I not face my heart now? Bai Jiang, listen up, I like her. It is not the kind of concern that the master has for his disciples, but the love between men and women. ”
"Enough!" Bai Jiang clenched his palms, creaking and making a sound, and his eyes were slightly red.
"No, I should tell you." Shirakawa smiled bitterly. Looking at Bai Jiang's angry expression, he said calmly, "Chi Yanjing, you and I have known each other since childhood, and you know who I am. And...... I never lied to you. ”
The four eyes were clearly opposite, his eyes were full of pain, extremely heavy, like the most difficult to dissolve in the dark night, it was heart-wrenching, but Bai Jiang's complexion at the moment had returned to normal, but it was a little pale, Bai Chuan looked at him, opened his mouth, felt that what he had just said was a little too much, and was about to speak, when he heard Bai Jiang in an extremely light voice, facing himself, and spoke.
"Everyone says that Wei Sa is a prodigal son, born with a cold heart, but I didn't know until today that Wei Sa's coldness and ruthlessness are nothing compared to you, if it's so sad, how did you say it to me with such a calm and waveless face now? In the past ten years, although you and I have gathered less and left more, we have also shared weal and evil, and we have a great plan, and now we ...... You are so ruthless to me for a woman, for a woman who doesn't have you in her heart at all! At the end of his speech, Shirakawa saw his temples jump abruptly twice. Then, on his fair skin, there were two traces of red blood, blood, which slipped from the corners of his lips abruptly, Bai Chuan was startled, stepped in front of him, supported his fluttering body, and asked in surprise, "Bai Chuan, what's wrong with you?" ”
"I'm fine." Bai Jiang opened his mouth lightly, his breath had weakened, but he pushed away the arm that Bai Chuan was holding. Shirakawa was dumbfounded, a little embarrassed.
"Why are you so embarrassed to allow yourself to do something you don't want to do at all." Bai Jiang looked at his expression, looked at his unchanged clothes, and smiled. "Wei Sa won't go to the Forgotten Soul Hall tonight, he wants to live in the former prince's study, and if you go to the dormitory tonight, you will definitely be able to see her."
Bai Chuan frowned, "Bai Jiang, you ......"
"I said I'm fine!" Bai Jiang raised his head fiercely, his eyes were terrifying, Bai Chuan glanced at him, his brows furrowed even more, "Pale face, what's wrong with you lately?" ”
Bai Jiang turned his head awkwardly, and slowly straightened up by himself on the table, intending to leave, but as soon as he raised his legs, he felt dizzy, and the dark shadows in front of him were heavy, and his body shook and he was hugged by Bai Chuan, his body was very cold, and it seemed that he had lost his playfulness and charm in the past.
"Don't move." Bai Chuan's hand touched his pulse, Bai Jiang was stunned, and subconsciously wanted to push him away, but was restrained by Bai Chuan. Immobile.
"The breath is very chaotic, what kind of kung fu have you practiced in recent days?" His veins are chaotic, complex, sometimes frivolous, sometimes low, and you can faintly glimpse the signs of going mad. Shirakawa was surprised, so he asked. Bai Jiang's face flushed, it was the first time he was so close to him, but he was just ...... But I wasn't happy at all.
"What have I practiced, what does it have to do with you!" There was a slight pain in his heart, how much he had longed for this man to be so gentle and considerate to him! But he wants to return to what he wants, but it is definitely not such a method!
"Bai Jiang ......" Bai Chuan was a little helpless.
"If I hadn't died, you wouldn't have looked at me like that!" It's so uncomfortable to be looked at so condescendingly! Bai Jiang moved awkwardly in his arms, trying to break free from his grip.
Shirakawa raised his hand to him a little, and he settled down a lot. He could only open a pair of bewitching eyes wide, and looked at Bai Chuan angrily, "What are you doing?" ”
***
"Help you open up the qi and blood in the meridians, you must be in a hurry, and you will go crazy when you practice, and the qi and blood are blocked in the meridians, if you don't open up the meridians, I'm afraid your kung fu will be wasted." Shirakawa dragged him to the bed expressionlessly, posed him, and crossed his knees behind him, lifting a breath of true qi.
Bai Jiang could only be fiddled with, unable to move on his own, and shouted angrily, "Who wants your help!" Quickly release my acupuncture hole. ”
"If you want to be known, scream." Bai Chuan said in a low voice, put his palms on his back, felt that Bai Jiang had a breath resisting him, let go of his hand, and said, "If you want me to die violently for a while, then continue to exercise." He had already felt that Bai Jiang was deliberately angry with him.
"You ......" Bai Jiang was choked speechless, and could only smile bitterly, "Bai Chuan, you know that in the world, the person I can't look at the dead is you." ”
This sentence is obvious, but in Shirakawa's ears, it has become the heaviest hammer.
Over the years, what he can't accept the most is also the deep meaning of this love.
"Shut up." Bai Chuan was a little annoyed for no reason, and snorted angrily, "It's not enough to go crazy? Do you want to come back a second time? ”
Bai Jiang slowly closed his eyes, ignoring the little coldness that slipped from the corners of his eyes.
***
The moon has moved to the treetop branches, slowly, but it has honed man's patience.
"Sister Ruoxi, why don't you rest?" Xiaoxiao walked in from outside, holding a box in her hand, and smiled when she saw Ruoxi.
Ruoxi was sitting on the big rock by the lake of forgetfulness, looking at the shadows of the stars falling on the lake, stunned. Hearing the smile of the question, he sighed suddenly and said in a low voice, "The day has come to such a time, he ...... I guess it's not coming. ”
