Huan Ke was surrounded by soldiers and drinking, and he was going to go on the expedition the next day, which was a must-have incentive and carnival before leaving. Bonfires burn with wood and crackle incessantly. I lowered my eyes and apologized slightly: "This matter is complicated. Lingyue can only tell you that the truth is not what you think. Between Lingyue and the prince...... It's just an extra layer of debt. ”

"This ......" was stunned, Huaiyan saw that something was wrong, and hurriedly said: "That's it, as long as the general and Emperor Lingyue can be well, stay in Qingshan without worrying about no firewood." "The preface doesn't match the afterword." Guangqi glanced at him with disgust, I smiled and nodded, and they stopped asking, and walked back to the crowd with their shoulders hooked.

“…… Tigi. After a moment's hesitation, Zhufeng finally stopped. I knew that he was bold and careful, and he was the best friend of Huan Ke, so he didn't ask questions first, but listened to him silently: "The purpose of the general and the emperor's trip to Dingshan is not just to quell the chaos, right?" ”

Looking straight at him, I bowed my head to confirm. Zhu Feng took a deep breath: "Huaiyan may not know, but the general told me. The place where Emperor Ji will go in the end is Liang Hong's final Shu. Until then, everything that Emperor Ji has done has been a foreshadowing. Cast abundant courage and ask more questions. If everything goes as the emperor thinks, then the general ...... to the emperor."

He stopped talking, I was speechless, the atmosphere was deadlocked for a while, and it took a long time before I said slowly: "As the prince once said, he may not have been involved in these incidents, because I was in it, and it was difficult to extricate myself. Maybe at first, the two of us were holding each other's hearts, but now, only I am left to use the prince unilaterally. ”

Zhu Feng listened very quietly on the side, I raised my eyes to look at him, and smiled lightly: "You know where I will go eventually, Zhu Feng, that is also my final destination." He was shocked, and I gestured to silence: "The clouds and mud have gone on a different path, and all thoughts have turned to ashes." Xiao Yuemu and Huan Ke are destined not to stay together, even if they forge ahead. The fate is extinction, and it is impossible to escape. If you know that you will not die well, you should simply not start wrong, so as not to be heartbroken and sad in the future. ”

I wanted to speak and stopped, Zhu Feng almost scratched his ears and cheeks for the words of persuasion, I waited for him with a smile, and looked back to see Huan Ke looking here, his eyes were gentle and wide, and he stared at me silently. Holding up a smile back to him, I turned back to Zhufeng and whispered, "What I said tonight, I hope it is a secret between you and me." My heart has been decided, and no one can stop me, so I don't have to worry about the prince anymore. ”

"But Emperor Ji," it seemed as if I had reminded him of what I said, and Zhu Feng hurriedly persuaded him, "Have you ever thought that sooner or later the general will know what Emperor Ji is thinking now?" If he had remembered it after it had all been over, he would have reproached himself for not realizing it earlier. Everyone in the world knows that Hu Ru Pingzhou Wang Sunai scolded Fang Xuan, a genius who has no regrets, what he wants to do, the people he wants to protect, at least he will not be wronged in vain. But on that day, the emperor hurt herself to save us, and the general's fury when she was unconscious went all at her right hand. He drank only water for those days, and did not eat a grain of rice. I was stunned, Zhufeng whispered, and looked in the direction of the bonfire: "When we persuaded him, the general only said lightly, 'This sword, these hands, should have been used to protect her, but it hurt her. ’”

This is indeed what he told me. It's just how he vented his anguish on himself, how he didn't value the most important right hand so much, how he was so stupid, and how he hurt himself to share the pain with me...... I don't know anything about that. If it hadn't been for Zhufeng's inform, maybe I wouldn't have known about it in my life.

My mind didn't seem to be able to think, I was still sitting where I was, and Zhu Feng had already gotten up: "Emperor Ji should also know that disobedience at this moment is another kind of harm to the general. If the ending is really irreversible, according to what Emperor Ji is doing now, there will be only regrets between the general and Emperor Ji, and nothing else. The emperor endured it...... Don't even the memories and the past leave the general with a single bit? ”

That night, I shared a room with Qi Lianyi. She kept rolling over, and I didn't feel sleepy. Lifting the quilt and getting up, I glanced at the immobile Qi dress, put on a cloak at random and walked out of the tent. Frost condenses the branches, and the leaves are withered. The late autumn night was so cold. Touching his shoulders and walking and stopping, he inadvertently raised his eyes and saw a very dim candlelight lit in a camp tent, and there were many people.

Smell a wisp of sandalwood first, I must be in my heart, open the curtain, and it is Huan Ke. There was an incense burner on the prayer table in front of him, and he was holding sandalwood to worship, and when he saw me entering the house, he didn't ask me why I hadn't slept, but frowned slightly: "It's such a cold day, and I don't wear more clothes." I walked closer and looked at the scriptures copied in hairpin script on the scripture case, silently puzzled. Huan Ke picked up the scripture and handed it to me: "It was transcribed by the imperial sister." On the eve of my battle, she will write a book with her own hands and tell me to worship incense. ”

After waiting for Huan Ke to finish silently, I whispered: "The princess cares about you so much, but she is still so good to me, she is really kind." After stopping Huan Ke's comfort, I turned my head to look outside the tent: "Although I said that I would not set off until noon tomorrow, since there are soldiers guarding the camp and you are the leader, you should rest early tonight." ”

"I've drunk a lot of wine, but I'm not sleepy anymore." Smiling, Huan Ke lightly touched the corner of his forehead: "Speaking of tomorrow, I think of something." It's a long journey, and the wagons have to be used to load the necessary items, so you're afraid you'll have to ride a horse. ”

"Huh?" I was astonished: "But I won't ......" "So tomorrow I will wait for you outside the tent." Tomorrow morning, I'll teach you how to ride a horse. Huan Ke raised his eyebrows, and my face was bitter: "I can't learn it in the morning." ”

"If I want to teach, you will learn." He was full of confidence and walked out with me: "Besides, you are spiritually wise, I am afraid that it will not take you a morning." ”

Before dawn, as soon as I left the camp, Huan Keguo was already waiting there. In order to be neat and neat, I combed my hair into a double screw bun and wore a Hufu riding costume given by Huan Wei. Left side of the begonia red lapel, a red-sleeved Uighur robe with a cinched waist and a narrow primrose-colored band. Wearing a plain white shin shirt, the feet are bamboo-green and pointed.

Looking me up and down, Huan Ke joked: "Just talk about the costume, it's half the battle." "A man is clothed and a horse is saddled." I was a little lighter and couldn't help laughing: "It's just these seven words." It's hard for the prince to bother to encourage me like this. ”

Smiling without saying a word, Huan Ke led the white horse he had been riding, and walked side by side with me to the racecourse. Some of the soldiers guarding the camp looked over with great interest, and many people were startled by their friends, and they didn't approach, but just smiled and pointed. Quite awkwardly, he watched Huan Ke turn over and get on the horse first, and then handed me his right hand. After a moment's hesitation, I still took a silk handkerchief and put it on my hand before handing it to him, and I seemed to hear the soldiers booing in my ears. Huan Ke didn't hear it, and taught me how to hold the reins, how to step on the pedals, and run slowly. When he turned a deaf ear to him, there were already a lot of people on the side of the racetrack.

I drove my horse all over the field after a lap, Huan Ke stopped the horse, jumped up without warning, I didn't have time to be surprised, he was already chuckling in my ear, breathing warmly: "There is a ginkgo forest in front, it is best to see at this time." It's too noisy here, I wonder if Huan Ke is lucky enough to invite the emperor to go with him? ”

I couldn't help but laugh at his pretended flamboyance, but I hadn't eaten since the morning, and I was worried that he was tired, so I couldn't help but hesitate. Huan Ke saw through what I was thinking, and patted the cloth bag with him: "If you want to have breakfast, I have already prepared it." Everything is ready, only the emperor is owed. I glared at him, I wanted to be angry, but I couldn't help but smile after all, and raised my head in a serious way: "That's it." For the sake of your dedication, Ben Diji will enjoy it. ”

Huan Ke laughed loudly, raised his whip and shouted, and galloped on his horse. The crowd behind me burst into cheers, and I was in a good mood and chuckled. It didn't take long to run into the ginkgo forest, Huan Ke didn't slow down his pace, just galloped first, the autumn breeze swept across his cheeks, and I couldn't help but close my eyes slightly. It wasn't until the end of the woods that he reined in the horse's head and turned the horse's head, and Huan Ke's breath was still steady: "How?" ”

"Hearty." I turned my face to look at him, and in an instant the two of them were very close to each other, and after being slightly stunned, I hurriedly turned my head and covered up my shame with a ruddy face. Huan Ke was silent for a moment, and Qi Er was happy, said hello, and raised the whip again. I also thought that if this return trip would be a pity for this good scenery, who knew that Huan Ke seemed to know my mind, only half of the way to live, and said lightly to rest here for a while, I nodded and agreed.

Huan Ke first threw the stirrup out of the saddle, turned around and stretched out his hand to me with a smile. The sunlight flowed through the cascading leaves, and the golden light flickered on his face, and there were small shadows of light flickering under his eyes, making the sword eyebrows and stars more brilliant and moving. I smiled and wanted to take out the silk silk and put it on my hand, but I was surprised to find that the silk had just been galloping smoothly, and the silk was lost at some point. Huan Ke looked at me for a moment, still holding out his hand steadily, waiting for me to put my hand in his palm. I felt uneasy, and my wrist suddenly warmed up, and my body rose into the air, and he took the horse steadily. His palms were as warm as jade, and his hands were slender and powerful, and when I stood firm, he let go, only smiling quietly and looking at my stunned appearance.

Last time in the night autumn hunting paddock, the situation was urgent, just saw a few people, especially Lan Tangheng die in front of me, I still didn't ease up, and subconsciously handed my hand to Huan Ke, relying on this seems to be the only comfort in the world to escape from the absurd panic. After that, under the pressure of the Empress Dowager in the Hu Ruxuan Palace, her hands folded several times just to hide from the sky and cross the sea, and round the drama. And this time, when I raised my eyes sluggishly and after realizing it, I met a pair of bright eyes. Among them, there is the promotion of youth, the depth of feelings, the obvious pleasure, and the implicit melancholy.

I found myself reluctant to look away. In Huan Ke's eyes, Xiao Yuemu was reflected; In the eyes of others, regardless of sadness, love and hate, it is always reflected in the cool and beautiful moon. Sitting on the ground with him, the wind blows, the ginkgo rustles, and occasionally the gold leaves fall, like a splendid rain of flowers. I only praised the shortbread prepared by Huan Ke once in Pingzhou Palace, and he didn't feel too trivial to wrap a lot, and all the shortbread handed to me was complete, and what he kept was broken. I chewed slowly, looking at Huan Ke to stroke the back of the white horse, and my heart turned thousands of times, and the teeth and the lower lip were separated and combined, until I felt a trace of blood, and I wanted to open my lips with this slight pain.

Just as he was about to speak, Huan Ke turned his back to me and took the first step, headless and brainless, and burst out with a sentence: "This white horse has been with me from birth to death, and has been by my side for several years." I named it based on its characteristics, and guess what? ”

The determination that had been brewing vanished in an instant, and I was secretly annoyed that these words had not come at the right time, so I got up and approached, trying my best to hide the fluctuation of my tone: "There are so many words in the world, how can I guess this." Don't sell it. ”

"'Don't be scared, walk steadily, the best thing to ride in the mountains is drunk'." Huan Ke looked back and smiled: "It can run extremely steadily even when galloping, and it is always on the ground no matter where it is." That's why I call it 'drunk'. ”

"That's a wonderful name." I repeated the two words, stroking the drunken white mane: "It has a leisurely taste and a sense of grandeur." Not only does it fit you, but it fits you perfectly. ”

"It's more leisurely than me." Sinking his voice, Huan Ke's tone was forbearing, and his eyes were deep and long, forcing me to look at him wholeheartedly: "It only cares about one heart and one horse." It's not like Huan Ke, he has entered the lovesick door, and he hates to be close to Fengyue. ”

Life is a lover, and this hatred is not about the wind and the moon. My heart was pounding, the hands hidden behind me pulled at my shirt, at this moment it seemed that even the breeze had stopped, and my heart suddenly floated on the hazy dazed "dream soul is used to no inspection, and stepped on the poplar flower to cross the Xie Bridge", until Yi drunk and snorted on the side, I woke up from a big dream, and forced myself to speak: "I have ...... I know each other deeply. ”
