Chapter 60: Sympathy

At the end of the song, the two people under the moonlight fell into their own hearts.

Mu Lan remembered the unrestrained life in the past, the light in her eyes flashed slightly, and then quietly slipped down, silently handing the flute in her hand to Wu Sanbian with a smile.

Wu Sanbian saw that Mu Lan's expression was a little strange, and wanted to divert the topic: "Miss Mu Lan, why do you also play this "Out of the Stopper"? No, the girl's ancestral home is also ......"

Mu Lan raised her eyes and said with a smile: "Huizhou." ”

Wu Sanbian was very surprised: "It turns out that we are fellow villagers!" ”

Mu Lan bent her eyebrows and said softly: "Actually, I was on the road just now, and as soon as I heard the sound of the adult's flute, I felt that I was in the capital and met a fellow villager. ”

Wu Sanbian smiled warmly and said excitedly: "Where is the girl's ancestral home in Huizhou?" ”

Mu Lan stared at the sparkling lake and said leisurely: "Mother once told me that my grandfather lived in Huizhou Shidi for a long time. Where is your ancestral hometown? ”

Wu Sanbian's expression was a little gloomy and said: "When I was a child, I remember my father said that our hometown is in Taozhen, Huizhou. But, actually, I'm supposed to be a homeless person......"

Mu Lan didn't expect this question to poke at the wounds of the guards, and she was secretly surprised and sighed in her heart, and hurriedly said softly: "Mu Lan didn't intend to cause adults to be sad......"

Wu Sanbian smiled slightly, tried his best to pretend to be casual, and said, "It's nothing." When I was six years old, I went to work with my mother and my father on a boat on the Yellow River. ”

Mu Lan's heart moved slightly, and she couldn't help but ask, "What about later?" ”

Wu Sanbian smiled bitterly: "Later, under a burst of lightning and thunder, the Yellow River set off huge waves, my father expected that there would be more than one bad luck, found a large wooden basin on the boat, and wrapped the silver taels and a letter with him on my body, and told me with tears with my mother, if I was lucky enough to escape, I must hide the silver money and letters in the baggage, and hire a carriage to go to the capital to seek a way to live." ”

When Mu Lan heard this, she had already guessed seven or eight points of the matter in her heart, and she couldn't bear to listen to it anymore.

Wu Sanbian was immersed in reminiscence, and continued in a sad tone: "Later, at the critical moment when the cabin did not hit the reef and enter the water, my father and mother pushed me sitting in the wooden basin into the river steadily. I was still young at the time, and I only remember that the tub was drifting farther and farther away from my parents' precarious boat in the whirlpool river......"

Speaking of this, because he saw Mu Lan in front of him, his eyes were hazy with tears, and he couldn't hold back, his heart moved slightly, pretending to be nothing, and continued to say lightly.

"However, I did not see my parents' boat capsizing in the waves of the Yellow River. After all these years, I prefer to believe that my parents just don't want to go back to their old life of constant migration. Perhaps, they are just tired of the days of their lives willing to be the dogs and horses of the court. ”

"At that time, if there had been no accident, we would have taken the waterway and then the post road, and took my father to Chang'an by carriage. I remember that before leaving, my father told my mother and me that it was not far from the Mogao Grottoes in Dunhuang and Shazhou. When we get there, when we are not busy, we must take us to visit the majestic Thousand Buddha Caves of the Tang Dynasty and the legendary Crescent Spring of Mingsha Mountain. ”

"I was thinking that maybe they got there before me, and when they saw the magnificent scenery there, they didn't want to go back to Huizhou, maybe they took root in the local indigenous people's villages, and wanted to live in obscurity for the rest of their lives."

Speaking of this, Wu Sanbian looked up to the sky and smiled slightly, I don't know if he was afraid that a line of tears in his eyes would drip down wantonly in front of Mu Lan, or if he wanted to raise his head and use the power of the starry sky in the dark night to silently dispel a trace of sorrow in his heart.

Wu Sanbian didn't know why he said this to Mu Lan, he was not a person with exposed emotions, although he had an easy-going temperament, but he was not the kind of person who casually told his heart to others.

But at this time, facing the beautiful and weak little woman in front of him, who is also making a living in the palace, how could he let the feelings that he had suppressed for many years flow like a torrent of decisive mentions for a while.

Wu Sanbian looked at the few stars shining quietly in the sky, and waited for the wind to gently dry the tears in the corners of his eyes before slowly moving his gaze back to the horizon.

I saw the woman in front of me, under the moonlight as clear as water, silent and independent in the wind, and suddenly felt a spring breeze-like warmth in my heart.

Mu Lan looked at the breezy man here, crying silently under the starlight, and her heart was quietly filled with a burst of grief and sadness.

Everyone has their own destiny and the path they can't choose.

In everyone's heart, they also silently hide their own part, deep, love and desolation.

A few months ago, she had seen with her own eyes that the heroic man in front of her was speaking up for himself in Nishan Academy, fighting grievances, and bringing the thief who stole her property to justice.

Now, perhaps by chance, she had nothing to reciprocate, so that she could listen to him tell the story that had been buried in her heart with a sad heart, and she couldn't say whether it was her honor, or whether God intended to arrange it so that she met and re-acquainted herself with the strong man in this deep palace, and re-acquainted with each other, in the same identity as a stranger in another country, in the high walls of this red cage where they were both located, they could care for each other, support each other, and be introduced as bosom friends, in this long night, each other was cited as a beam of light. Illuminate the darkness around each other, and in every ordinary or extraordinary day in the future, you can have more upward strength in your heart, be strong, and live well.

Thinking like this, Mu Lan's eyes seemed to be illuminated by a beam of fluorescent light.

raised his eyes, but saw that under the night sky, Wu San seemed to have the same feeling, and projected a pair of eager eyes towards him.

Mu Lan had never been stared at like this, and although her heart was frank and natural at this time, her cheeks couldn't help but quietly fly a hint of red.

She didn't notice the two eager gazes, she only stared at the inky lake in front of her, muttered for a moment, turned her head sideways towards Wu Sanchang and said calmly: "Lord Fangcai's expectations for his parents, Mu Lan also imagined in his heart. Although they are not around adults, they must also look forward to adults, live well, and live well in the present. ”

When Wu Sanbian heard this, he also smiled and nodded thoughtfully.

Mu Lan was relieved to see it, and Ying Ying smiled and said, "The name of an adult is so unique compared to ordinary people. Mu Lan dared to guess. The ancients Zeng Yun: A gentleman has three changes, and he looks at it as if he is warm, and he is also strong when he listens to his words. May I ask, does the name of the adult also come from this meaning? ”
