In this world, there are always some things that don't need a reason to do, just like now, he knelt outside the palatial hall, looked at his biological father sitting in a high position, and said indifferently: "You are the prince of the Western Regions, how about paying a little bit for the people and the Qianqiu Sheji of the Western Regions?" It's just that you were asked to go to the north to be a proton, what do you have to be wronged about? ”

Dongling Mo knelt on the ground, his knees were numb with pain, he heard his father's words, leaned over again, and kowtowed fiercely on the ground, "Father, the mother concubine is seriously ill, and the child wants to stay and take care of the mother concubine." ”

"Presumptuous!" The man in the dragon robe was furious, "You are not a doctor, why do you need to take care of you?" Could it be that there is no one in the palace of the Western Regions to take care of your mother? ”

He finally had nothing to say, so he had to kowtow again, "Erchen obeys." ”

When he was sent to the northern country, there was only a small carriage and a guard with him, and the carriage gradually went farther and farther, and he heard a voice from behind him, "Brother Tanglin...... Tanglin brother ......"

He turned around, lifted the sedan curtain, and saw a tearful reflection running towards him behind him, and beside him, standing was her father, the mighty general of the Western Regions.

Donglin Mo didn't have any expression, turned around again, curled up, leaned in the carriage, and didn't say a word.

After a few days of turbulence, he finally reached the territory of the northern kingdom, and came to pick him up from a eunuch in the northern kingdom, who commanded the people to take him to a courtyard near the river, and then left.

Then the guard also departed, saying that he was going back to his life, and he dragged his tired body in, and found a place to lie down, and in the darkness of the night, tears slid down his young face.

That year, he was thirteen years old.

No one cared about him, no one paid attention to him, and he slept until dawn, and then he felt so hungry.

He stood up, trying to find something to eat, and dragged his tired body around, but there was nothing to eat.

He was a little desperate, but the more desperate he became, the more he felt that he couldn't die like this, his mother was still there, and he had to go back to take care of his mother.

It was at this time that he met his master, Yingwu.

Yingwu was an extremely beautiful woman, she always came here at night, brought him food and clothing, taught him martial arts, and taught him poison.

He always felt that Master was the most beautiful woman in the world, but until that day, he met the woman who changed his life.

He had food and clothing, sat by the river in a daze every day, and at night the master would come to teach him to practice martial arts, so during the day, he slept all morning, and then sat by the river in the afternoon.

He remembered that afternoon, a very ordinary afternoon, he was sitting by the river with a stick of grass in his mouth basking in the sun, and suddenly there was a ripple on the surface of the river, and when he looked up, he saw a little girl of about ten years old sitting in a boat, rowing towards him with her oars.

The little girl was dressed in blue clothes, with a circle of embroidered patterns on the cuffs, and her thin body seemed to have infinite strength, rowing with great effort while picking lotus pods under lotus leaves.

Tanglin Mo hid his body inside, not wanting the girl to see him, but the girl stopped the boat on the shore and smiled at herself: "Hey, come and help me......"

There was a bright smile on the girl's immature face, and Donglin Mo was stunned, until the girl stomped her feet again and called him, he hurriedly stood up, forgot to put on his shoes, and ran over to help her park the boat.

After parking the boat, the girl covered her mouth and smiled, "Why don't you even wear shoes?" ”

Only then did he realize his embarrassment, and hurriedly turned around to put on his shoes, and the girl followed him, walked over and sat down by the river embankment, took out a snow-white lotus root from the basket on the side, washed it twice in the river, broke it vigorously, handed it to him, and said, "Now, for you, eat it." ”

Dongling Mo looked at the lotus root handed over by the girl, and was stunned for a long time before reaching out to take it.

The girl sat down beside him and said with a smile, "Who are you, I've been here before, why have I never seen you?" ”

Tanglin Mo touched his head and said, "I am...... Newly moved. ”

The girl smiled and said, "My name is Xia Mengning, and I am a ...... of the Prime Minister's Mansion" Speaking of this, the girl seemed to pause, and then continued: "My family lives in the Prime Minister's Mansion. ”

Tanglin Mo didn't care, and whispered: "My name is Donglin Mo." ”

This is the first acquaintance, the youthful time, intertwined with different emotions.

They will meet again every day in the future, until one day, there is no smile on her face, Donglin Mo is very worried, and asks her vigorously, but she refuses to say anything, until the end, she cries and rolls up her sleeves and shows him the wound on the back of her hand.

Shocking, the back of her hand was covered with bruises and purple scars, Donglin Mo was annoyed, and stood up suddenly, "Who is it, I'm going to avenge you." ”

Xia Mengning hurriedly stopped him and cried, "It's useless, it's useless...... It's the second brother, the second brother is very popular with his father, it's useless......"

Donglin Mo softened suddenly, he clenched his fists fiercely, gritted his teeth and said, "It's all useless for me!" ”

Xia Mengning cried and shook her head, "No, no, no...... It's today...... Today, my mother said that she would marry me to the Mojun Mansion to be a concubine and pave the way for my sister, I didn't want to be a concubine, so I resisted a few words, and I was beaten by my second brother......"

Being a concubine? Tanglin Mo was stunned for a moment, and then grabbed her arm, "Why do you want to be a concubine, why?" How old are you? ”

Xia Mengning cried and said, "The concubine of our family is like this...... It is a ...... that paves the way for the daughters of the concubines."

That afternoon was an afternoon that Tanglin Mo couldn't forget until he died, because of his own incompetence, he couldn't protect the people he wanted to protect.

So, since then, he has become extremely diligent, practicing martial arts, reading, and simply forgetting to sleep and eat.

He thought that as long as he could work hard, he could protect her, and he could keep her from crying and let her be wronged.

Seeing her shed tears in front of him, he was almost suffocated, how he wished he could be angry for her, to help her teach the group of bullies who had bullied her.

But he can't, so he can only make himself stronger, and only when he is strong can he protect the people he wants to protect.

Then, he told Xia Mengning about his life experience, Xia Mengning listened quietly, and at the end, he said: "Brother Tanglin, it turns out that we are all poor people......

Donglin Mo didn't make a sound, but suddenly felt his body warm, it turned out that it was Xia Mengning who reached out and hugged him.

"Brother Tanglin, fortunately there are still you, Ning'er is not afraid of ......"

Tanglin Mo's nose was sour, in fact, what he wanted to say, fortunately there are you, otherwise, he might have died a long time ago.

This is the woman who changed his life.

Then, he was finally taken back to the Western Regions, and he never saw Xia Mengning again, he counted the time in his heart, thinking that he must come to take her away before she and Lu, but then he came, and he came before Xia Mengning and Lu.

What I met was a completely different Xia Mengning.

She was still the same, and seemed to be more beautiful than before, but her eyes were cold, hypocritical, polite, and even rusty and indifferent when she looked at herself.

He didn't know if she remembered herself, so he made a lot of hints, and it wasn't until finally that he really knew that she had forgotten about him.

She was engaged to Changsun Yun, and he was going crazy after knowing the news that night, he wanted to kill Changsun Yun with a sword and snatch her back, but he didn't dare, he didn't dare to appear in front of her once.

It's just because he can't stand Xia Mengning looking at him like a stranger.

In the woods, he watched Xia Mengning stab the dagger into his body, it hurt, but no matter how bad the physical pain was, it couldn't compare to the spiritual pain.

When he walked barefoot through the thousands of tempered ropeways, it hurt, but no matter how painful it was, it still couldn't withstand the pain that Xia Mengning would rather risk himself to die than save the pain brought to him by Changsun Yun.

In the Western Regions Palace, when she took her heart and blood over and over again, it hurt, but no matter how painful it was, it couldn't withstand the pain when she woke up in the middle of the night and had to go away quietly.

All the pain, it doesn't hurt, Donglin Mo feels that as long as it is related to Xia Mengning, it will hurt, but it doesn't hurt either.

It doesn't hurt, for example, that time in the forest, he vomited blood, but Xia Mengning was worried about him, so it didn't hurt, on the cliff, he fell off the cliff, but Xia Mengning was worried about him, so he didn't hurt.

When you fall in love with someone, the pain and the pain are all in her hands, you give your heart away, and at the same time hand over a dagger that can slaughter yourself at will to her, the pain, you have to endure it, if it doesn't hurt, you have to endure it.

He remembered that once in the past, there was a heavy rainstorm in the summer, lightning and thunder, she couldn't go back, she could only follow him back to his house, the night was very dark, they had no candles, Xia Mengning took a delicate small bamboo basket from the box beside her, which contained a lot of fireflies, she smiled and handed it to herself, and said: "Brother Tanglin, you see, with this, you are not afraid of the dark." ”

Donglin Mo took it, and sure enough, the fireflies flashed and flashed, illuminating the night.

Xia Mengning sat on the bed with her knees crossed, leaned against the wall and said: "Brother Tanglin, my status in the Prime Minister's Mansion is very humble, everyone can bully me and my mother, and we don't have candles, so I often go to catch fireflies by myself, Brother Tanglin, I'll sing you the song of fireflies." ”

Donglin Mo nodded, and heard Xia Mengning humming softly, "Don't be afraid, the sky won't be dark, there will be fireflies when it's dark, and fireflies will light up the night......"

Donglin Mo didn't sleep that night, Xia Mengning's head rested on his lap, and he slowly fell asleep, the fireflies were like twinkling little stars, Donglin Mo took advantage of the light of the fireflies, lowered his head and touched Xia Mengning's lips with his lips.

This is the young love that belongs to the teenager, it is the night when the teenager is determined to give his heart for the first time, the two cold lips are leaning together, one has decided to give this life, and the other is laughing in his sleep.

When Donglin Mo recalls this scene, he always has an impulse.

He wanted to ask, "Ning'er, don't you remember me?" I'm Brother Tanglin. ”

She used to talk to herself like that, she used to be so close to herself, she used to be so good to herself, why, why did it become like this?

Finally, he recognized this cruel fact, Xia Mengning had completely forgotten him, and he was also desperately in love with Changsun Yun.

He had been mad, repentant, annoyed, and even wanted to die, but until the end, he still watched her turn away and disappear from his vision.

Is it because the love is too deep?

It should be.

He looked at the carriage that was getting farther and farther away, and remembered every scene he had ever known her, every word he had said to her before, and every thing he had done for her before.

Finally, tears flowed out, he stood on the high city wall, watching her carriage gradually move away, he shouted softly, "Ning'er...... Ning'er ...... Xia Mengning ......"

It seems that such a call can make his heart not hurt so much, and only by shouting out like this can he feel that he is still alive.

The chamberlain on the side stepped forward and said softly, "Regent, it's snowing, aren't you going back?" ”

He shook his head and waved his hand, and the chamberlain hurriedly stepped back and turned to go down.

Spread out his hand, what he had in his hand was the hair he took from Xia Mengning's head when he was leaving, it was just a thin one, he looked down and felt that her face seemed to be in front of him.

It was snowing, he looked up at the sky, hoping that the snowflakes could hear his heart, don't freeze her, don't cool her, don't ...... delayed her.

In his life, he has lived for her, so all the pain and sadness are not so important, what he wants from beginning to end is that Xia Mengning can be happy, and there is nothing else.
