Chapter 44: First Love

It is worthy of being a cultivator," the elder brother's faint voice crashed into Duan Lizheng's mind, and he opened his eyes and looked at Duan Haochu in a trance.

"It's worthy of a cultivator, just by imagining it, you can feel things that ordinary people can't perceive," Duan Haochu repeated his evaluation of cultivators for some reason.

Duan Lizheng, who had not yet recovered from the restored scene in his mind, just looked at him in a daze.

Duan Lizheng instinctively felt that his brother's mood was wrong, but he himself was also very confused in his mind now, and he missed the opportunity to notice it.

Looking at the young brother's pure expression, Duan Haochu's eyes crossed with an emotion of unknown meaning, and he sighed and returned to his usual expression.

"Hearing from your master that your senses and consciousness as a cultivator are extremely keen, it seems to be true." Duan Haochu smiled without any ups and downs on the corner of his mouth, "He is worthy of being the first son of Huizhou." ”

Duan Lizheng was stunned, but the next moment a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"That's in Huizhou," he said lightly, "I'm nothing in Shendu." ”

Although the teenager's emotions were restrained, he couldn't hide from Duan Haochu's eyes.

"What's wrong?" Duan Haochu stared at him solemnly, "Your state is not quite right, where did you go with your usual confidence?" ”

"Confident me?" Duan Lizheng suddenly laughed, "I have always been confident in your eyes? ”

"It's useless to talk nonsense in front of me," Duan Haochu looked at his younger brother coldly, "If you still treat me as an elder brother, tell me it." ”

Duan Lizheng was stunned, then looked up at his brother who was like a great enemy and smiled, "Don't mention this first, brother, you haven't told me yet, why did you mention Gao Shenyuan and sister-in-law to me?" ”

The young man's originally somewhat misty eyes sharpened in an instant, stabbing at Duan Haochu, "What does all this have to do with Zhu Ying?" ”

Facing the younger brother's questioning, Duan Haochu said as if he had prepared a speech from the beginning.

"Because I don't want you to make the same mistakes as me again."

"Repeated?" The elder brother's tone was complicated, and Duan Lizheng always felt that this sentence not only seemed to have a deeper metaphor than the surface meaning.

"Gao Shenyuan's name, did you feel anything else when you heard it for the first time?" Duan Haochu stared at his younger brother's eyes.

I think it's a little ...... Inauspicious. Duan Lizheng said in his heart.

Although he knew that the names of the royal family were affected by divination, no, it was better to know that these felt more ominous, combined with the sentence that Duan Haochu was born guilty before, Duan Lizheng seemed to understand something.

"You mean high-pitched...... That is, the current Song Huaizhu may also be unmarried to me...... Cough...... Will it be bad for Zhu Ying? ”

Except for the terrible speculation in my heart, there is only this one explanation.

Duan Haochu nodded, "I used to have my wife who didn't protect well, I hope this kind of thing doesn't happen to your future wife and you again." ”

Staring into his brother's eyes, Duan Lizheng was stunned.

It seems that the elder brother put Song Huaizhu on guard against Lone Star that day, but his mood for his sake is not fake. Duan Lizheng didn't know what to say, and at the same time, another word in Duan Haochu's words touched him.

"What about the future wife...... the fist at the side of the young man clenched and loosened, and then said with a wry smile, "But big brother, I don't think I'm worthy of her anymore." ”

As soon as this sentence came out, Duan Lizheng was stunned first.

It turns out that this is his true mood now.

Duan Haochu looked at his younger brother for a moment, and the figure of the young man who was in pain was reflected in his deep pupils, as if he had seen his past self.

"So that's the confidence you've lost?" Duan Haochu said lightly.

"Confidence?" Duan Lizheng smiled, "It's okay to say that." ”

"Big brother, do you know," as if to express the emotions in his heart, Duan Lizheng smiled softly, "I was originally very confident. ”

I believe that he is the man who is most worthy of her.

Even if he wasn't a grandmaster, he was still young and he could grow up with her.

"But that self-confidence is constantly disappearing from Huizhou to Shendu." Duan Lizheng muttered.

"It's too fast."

He found that he could no longer keep up with the girl, and one day, she would fly into the sky.

Fly away from in front of him.

And he was afraid of the day when it would finally come.

What is feared can no longer be feared.

"Are you scared?" Duan Haochu stood on a high place, looking at his younger brother who was in pain.

Duan Lizheng was about to nod honestly, but the next moment, he heard his brother's self-deprecating laughter coming from above his head.

"According to what you say, wasn't your eldest brother and I worse at the beginning?"

Ay?

Duan Lizheng, who was immersed in his own pain, raised his head in a daze and looked at his brother who had a more bitter and helpless smile than himself.

"I don't know why you feel this way, but Li Zheng," Duan Haochu looked at his younger brother with a complicated expression.

At the age of sixteen, this dual cultivation of civil and military affairs became the younger brother of the Great Zhou Wen Examination Eye and the cultivator of the middle stage of the Ascending Pole.

"If you as a cultivator think so, that big brother would be much worse than you at the beginning."

Duan Lizheng was stunned, but the next moment he suddenly understood what Duan Haochu was talking about.

Because of his brother's fiancΓ©e, the fiancΓ©e of the eldest brother who explored flowers in high school back then.

It is the pearl of His Majesty's palm, who is both civil and military, talented and became a grandmaster at the age of nineteen.

The elder brother is not a cultivator, but he still stays with that sister-in-law, and in the end, although it was such an ending, he finally became a husband and wife.

Thinking of this, Duan Lizheng couldn't help but ask.

"Big brother, big brother, how did you face this problem in the first place?"

"Me?" Duan Lizheng was stunned.

Duan Lizheng quietly waited for his brother's answer.

The next moment, however, his brother's eyes were stained with colors he could not understand, and then he heard his brother speak softly as if in a dream.

"I am willing to be worthy of virtue and hand in hand. I shall not fly away, and I shall be destroyed. ”

The meaning of this sentence.

Duan Lizheng didn't understand until much later.

And by the time he understood, it was too late.

……

……

At that time, he didn't understand.

What exactly does this phrase mean?

When he said that, his brother's expression made Duan Lizheng extremely concerned. Even the next day, this sentence was swirling in his head, making him wander unconsciously.

"Lizheng?"

"Huh? I'm sorry!" Duan Lizheng came back to his senses, looked at the worried eyes of the girl on the other side of the stone table, and spoke apologetically.

"It's okay," Zhu Luan smiled at the young man with dark circles under his eyes at the stone table under the pavilion.

"I'm sorry, I'm distracted, you're talking about something very important." Duan Lizheng said remorsefully.

In the British Mansion of the Divine Capital, under the familiar pavilion, Zhu Luan and Duan Lizheng were sitting facing each other.

Duan Lizheng looked at the girl with a calm expression and exhaled.

Because of the seriousness of the matter, the imperial court had already issued an order early this morning, asking him to set off with her and the disciples of Xiliang Sword Pavilion this afternoon to escort the second prince of Xiliang back to the court. And this morning, Zhu Luan gave him and the Huizhou teenagers a post, inviting them to the British public to say that they had something to say to them.

I don't know what kind of psychology it is, Duan Lizheng arrived at the British Mansion an hour earlier than the time on the post.

At this time, there were only two people under the pavilion, him and Zhu Luan.

"It's okay, the others haven't come here anyway, I'm just chatting casually," Zhu Luan smiled and looked at Duan Lizheng's dark circles, "But what were you thinking about just now?" ”

Duan Lizheng was stunned, and then spoke, "I'm thinking about my sister-in-law......"

Yes?

Zhu Luan froze, noticing the girl's expression, Duan Lizheng gasped and quickly added, "The matter between me and my eldest brother." ”

Zhu Luan breathed a sigh of relief, it's okay.

But at the same time, she suddenly became a little curious, and she spoke as if unintentionally.

"By the way, you shouldn't have seen your sister-in-law, right?" Zhu Luan asked.

Duan Lizheng nodded honestly, "But my eldest brother told me a lot about my sister-in-law. ”

"Yes...... Zhu Luan groaned, and then asked, "So did your eldest brother tell you what kind of person your sister-in-law is?" ”

She was suddenly a little curious about what she was like back then in Duan Haochu's eyes.

Looking at the shining eyes of the girl opposite, Duan Lizheng nodded heavily, "Of course!" ”

"What kind of people?" Zhu Luan frowned.

"My eldest brother said ......" Duan Lizheng thought for a while, and then spoke in Duan Haochu's tone with great seriousness and pride.

"Although she herself is not self-conscious, Princess Yingluan has the beauty of captivating all beings, her character is resolute but gentle, Bing Xue is smart but knows how to be silent, as long as she sees it once, she will never forget it."
