Chapter 1 It was winter
It's a cool night.
It was deeper and heavier, the moonlight was dim, and there were no people walking in the general's mansion at night, even if someone passed by, they were in a hurry.
In the silent bedroom, only a few faint fires can be seen flickering and dimming, and there seems to be a soothing incense that seems to be permeated.
Perhaps because of the effect of soothing the incense, Chu Ruojun just put on the pillow and fell asleep.
In her dream, it was a land of ice and snow. Heavy snow was flying all over the sky and raging at will.
It snowed heavily that day, Chu Ruojun stood in the snow in a warm brocade robe, snowflakes fell and fell on her shoulders, and her eyes were clear.
The maid hurriedly ran over, looked at her lips that were purple from the cold, handed her a stove, and said to her, "Miss, it's windy outside, let's go back to the house." ”
Chu Ruojun smiled slightly, and was just about to walk towards the house, when she suddenly heard someone shouting: "Young Master, it's the Young Master who is back." ”
She was extremely happy, she didn't expect her brother to come back so soon. Chu Ruojun ran to the main gate with a smile, and the moment she saw her brother Chu Shaozhuo, she couldn't stand anymore and collapsed to the ground.
The maid came over and hugged her, and said to her vigorously: "Miss, don't be afraid, it's okay, the young master will be fine." ”
As she spoke, her trembling hand tightened her grip.
But he wasn't fine.
All the guards helped was a cold corpse.
The corpse was still smiling, as if it had returned to a warm place, and smiled so calmly and elegantly.
There was a buzz in her head, and all sounds disappeared in an instant.
Chu Ruojun remembered what her brother said to her at the end, he said Ruojun, I will go to the banquet, and I will come back soon, and I will come back to bring you your favorite pear blossom cake.
Snowflakes flying, like pear blossoms, the pure and flawless white pear blossoms, not only represent the purest feelings.
It also represents parting.
Chu Ruojun looked at her brother's body for a long time, and finally staggered to his feet, only to hear his father say: "Temporarily block the news, saying that he will go out for a few days, and secretly he must find out, whoever hurts my son's life, I will definitely make him pay for it with blood." ”
His father's voice was as low as a bell, and only his slightly trembling shoulders betrayed his emotions.
She reacted instantly, her mind cluttered.
The queen mother and the emperor fought for power, and the emperor was indecisive, and his brother Chu Shaozhuo clearly stood on the emperor's party, and the queen mother couldn't bear it anymore and finally attacked him.
Go to the banquet, this banquet is also the handiwork of the Queen Mother!
In addition to the Queen Mother, who else will there be!
The moment the answer came to Chu Ruojun's mind, she couldn't stand anymore, pulled out her sword from the guard's waist, and was about to walk out emotionally.
As soon as her father grabbed her, his hands trembled, and his eyes were full of fear when he looked at her: "Ruojun...... What are you going to do......"
"Don't you understand?!"
Chu Ruojun yelled at him: "I want to avenge my brother!"
"Ruojun!" The general looked cold in the sharp blade in his daughter's hand in an instant.
He looked at her, she looked at him with trembling hands, and finally, at last, defeated by her father's cold gaze.
The long sword fell to the ground, and Chu Ruojun knelt beside his brother's corpse, hugging him deadly, screaming on his back, crying heartbreakingly.
The guards and slaves knelt down, howling and begging the old lady to mourn and let the young master be buried in the ground.
He thought that he shouldn't shed tears at this time, as a proud general of the Iron Horse Glacier, where could he cry easily.
However, he couldn't suppress it, no one could accurately describe the specific expression of this grief-stricken father after hearing that his beloved son had died in vain, he walked over and gently hugged his only little daughter now, patted her shoulder and said, "Ruojun, he is my son, I will definitely avenge Shaozhuo." ”
It's a pity that I didn't wait for him to grow up.
"What if you can't kill that person?"
"I'm going to try it to the death!"
"What if you fail?!" The wind poured into the mouth, mixed with flakes of snow, and it was cold to the bone.
"That ......"
"Ruojun, if you fail to serve your father, don't go to ......"
Chu Ruojun didn't talk to her father again, because her father's eyebrows and eyes were full of deep meanings that she couldn't understand.
She watched in silence as they slowly peeled her brother from their hands, the pain like a person's heart, ripping flesh out of it.
It was an extremely cold winter.
It's a terrible dream.
Chu Ruojun sat up from the bed with a sigh of surprise, gasping for breath.
It's this dream again, the nightmare that lingered three years ago.
Even after so many years, even if she can't remember some details clearly, his voice and smile will still burrow into her dreams for no reason, reminding her of all this, and she will never forget it.
She felt a little thirsty, and with the help of the candlelight, she got out of bed and poured herself a glass of water to drink.
The window was not closed, the shadows of the trees swayed under the moonlight, and the eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of hazy fog, like a dream like smoke, like fog like a fantasy.
In the night, she suddenly heard the sound of someone waving a bamboo sword, driving the sound of whirring wind.
Chu Ruojun put down the white porcelain cup, opened the window and looked out, but there was nothing.
She was a little helpless, looking at the open space in the courtyard with an expressionless face, turning into a wry smile in the warm yellow candlelight.
What happened next.
A few days later, the general's mansion was covered in white.
On that day, people in the streets and alleys of Changping City saw a woman, dressed in a drama costume with messy hair, frantically looking for a person named Chu Shaozhuo.
The streets were really chaotic, and they were all talking about the General's Mansion.
The actor walked all the way to the General's Mansion, where the door was tightly closed, and there were guards with swords in their hands standing in front of the door.
Her eyes were full of depressed white, everything happened so fast that she was stunned and couldn't think, she didn't know that the general's mansion was under martial law, and as soon as she stepped up the steps, the sound of the sword unsheathed sounded in her ears.
The guard's face was gloomy, and his voice was a little cold, "Where did you come from, this is not the place you should come, don't leave quickly!" ”
She froze and didn't move.
The guard gritted his teeth and said, "If you don't leave, don't blame us for being unkind to you!" ”
As he spoke, he reached out to push her, but the actor was petite, and one fell to the ground unsteadily, but he was reluctant to leave.
She crouched in front of the door of the General's Mansion and wept, knelt at the feet of the guards and begged them to come in and give a report, so that she could go in and take a look.
The guards were impatient and wanted to give her some color.
There was a flash of cold light, and then she was jerked into her arms, and the cold saber seemed to pass over her ears, so real.
In a trance, she saw that Chu Ruojun's smiling eyes were now cold.
If it weren't for the fact that she pulled her with her hand, then her current self .......
The door of the General's Mansion finally opened, and the drama came back to his senses. She saw Chu Ruojun's eyes slightly red and her face tired.
When Chu Ruojun saw her, she was a little surprised: "It's you?" Sister Wanwan? ”
At that moment, the actor almost burst into tears, she thought that she had finally met someone she knew, and that she had finally had the opportunity to go in and see him for the last time.
But Chu Ruojun was expressionless, and said in a low voice: "My father gave an order, I won't let you in, I can't help it, you better go." ”
"Even now, can't you?"
General Chu has always looked down on his background in the play, and tried his best to oppose them being together, and now, at the last glance, can't it?
A low sneer came from behind him, "Don't! ”
"Why?" Ye Shuwan didn't give up and asked.
General Chu had a gloomy face, "There is no reason. ”
There was another sound of swords unsheathed, Ye Shuwan looked up, but saw Chu Ruojun raise her hand to stop the guards who were about to draw their swords.
She closed her eyes lightly and struggled to stand up, Chu Ruojun supported her from behind, she slowly turned around and pushed her away.
is a drama by himself, and his identity is humble to the dust, where can he be worthy of the general's daughter to support.
Chu Ruojun was stunned, and the drama broke into her sight like this, with the full white background as the background, in her thoughtful gaze, she gradually walked away, her back slightly bent.
A cool breeze blew from the window, Chu Ruojun couldn't help but shiver, and her flying thoughts were also pulled back from her memories.
She quietly looked out the window, and after a long time, closed the window and turned back to the bed.
Chu Ruojun remembered that every time her brother went out to fight when she was young, he would look at her and say to her: "Ruojun, you know, Wanwan has a gentle temperament, some people think she is cowardly and bullies her, you know what to do." ”
Chu Ruojun curled her eyebrows: "Brother, don't worry about going to war, I know what to do, with me, no one dares to bully Sister Wanwan." ”
As he spoke, he raised his fist.
Chu Shaozhuo looked at her and smiled calmly. Finally, he said, "I will definitely come back." ”
She didn't answer him, but waved goodbye, confident that her brother would come back victorious.
Now Wanwan is already a famous corner of the painting building, and no one dares to bully her casually, but the person who explained her matter is gone.
