Chapter 505: That Gentleness Is Not For Her
He Mai listened to his heartfelt words, and he didn't know how many times he had been moved.
It was the first time she had heard Rokuro talk so carefully about their old lives, and the kind of life he was talking about was actually the day she faintly looked forward to in her heart.
"I just don't know when I'll be able to live like this." He Mai muttered.
Rokuro smiled: "Actually, I won't tell you, I've been looking forward to this day for an unknown amount of time." For the past eight months, I have fought many battles and fought the battlefield, but every night I went back to the camp and slept, and my head was full of pictures of holding hands and laughing with you in the fields. Hemai, when Donglin is too peaceful, let's live in seclusion in the countryside and don't care about these mundane things anymore, okay? ”
He Mai was a little tempted by what he said, but he didn't rashly agree at this moment, but said, "Dad is still in White Night City...... If I want to leave, I'll have to wait until my father can get out of the battlefield. ”
"The general is dedicated to the country, and not long ago persuaded me to take over the responsibility of garrisoning White Night City, this matter is in the general's place, I am afraid that it will not be promised." Rokuro said with a wry smile.
He Mai smiled and said, "Then there is my mother!" What my mother said, my father will naturally listen. As long as they agree, let's take Mu He back, back to Xiaoqing Village, right? ”
"That's right, Xiaoqing Village!" Liulang smiled, "I don't know what He Lin and Grandma are doing at this time?" ”
……
……
Xu Zhuofu stayed alone in her camp for three days, and was very disappointed when she heard her soldiers say that Liulang had no intention of calling her into battle when he led his troops out of the city again.
It had been several days since the wheat was produced, but Rokuro still didn't let go, and he wanted to forgive her.
Among them, Xu Jiang came to visit her once, but when he saw her indifferent attitude of not approaching others, even her "brother-in-law" was scared away.
Xu Congquan's letter has been coming for half a month, and if there is no miscalculation, the holy marriage decree should have been transmitted to Yuanfeng City immediately.
As long as the holy decree is along, no matter how much Rokuro doesn't like her, he has to accept the decree and marry her, otherwise, he will end up disobeying the decree.
And no matter how arrogant and domineering Hemai is, no matter how much someone supports him, I am afraid that he will not be able to withstand the will of the saints.
Xu Zhuofu thought that she had planned things very carefully, and she was only waiting for the holy decree from the imperial capital, so she didn't think about going out of the camp to take revenge on the mother and daughter.
But after waiting for half a month, the wheat was almost out of confinement, and she had already walked in front of her tent three times, and the holy decree had arrived.
Was there an accident on the way that delayed the people who carried out the holy decree?
Or is the saint's mind changed, and the news of Xu Congquan's persuasion is no longer accurate?
Xu Zhuofu's heart was in turmoil, and her head was also a mess.
As the middle of the night approached, Xu Zhuofu listened to the sound of the horn in the barracks, and sat up uneasily again.
She had too much baggage in her heart, and the weight was overwhelming her at this moment.
There is no news from my father, and my brother has never sent a letter again, what happened to the imperial capital?
Xu Zhuofu wiped the cold sweat from her forehead, and thought jealously in her heart that she saw Liulang in a military uniform during the day, but with a smile on his face, he helped He Mai to spread his gentle appearance in the barracks.
That kind of gentle and patient appearance was what she was most looking forward to in her dreams, and Brother Liulang, whom she had known for more than 20 years, had never shown such a look in front of her, saying that it was jealousy, but it was better to say that Xu Zhuofu was envious of Hemai every inch of her body.
She envied that Hemai could easily get Rokuro's love and care, and envied that she had a face comparable to herself, but there was a trait that made Rokuro fall in love at first sight.
She has known Rokuro for more than ten years, and the only time she saw him smile at her like a warm spring breeze was at the celebration banquet after defeating the Donglin army last month.
Rokuro didn't know whether he was too happy to repel the enemy army or borrowed wine to kill his sorrows, so after a few more drinks, a group of people sent him back to the camp.
In that case, she didn't find a suitable opportunity to be alone with him.
Maybe it was because she had other intentions, and the lieutenants under Rokuro guarded her like thieves, until the sobering decoction was delivered, and several of the lieutenants wanted to come forward to feed the medicine, but they were waved back by the confused Rokuro, and she got the opportunity to walk up with the decoction.
It was the first time in several years that she had been so close to her brother Rokuro, and there was no other woman beside her.
The soup spoon scooped the brown liquid and fed it into Rokuro's mouth one by one.
Xu Zhuofu saw that Liulang opened his eyes slightly, looking at her with eyes that were half expectant and half intoxicated, gentle as spring water, enough to melt all the ice of jealousy in her heart.
Her hand in the bowl of soup trembled slightly, and the brown liquid in the bowl reflected her anxious and nervous face—perhaps she had never been so nervous when she was struggling to kill the enemy on all sides......
The next moment, Liulang's hand tied Xu Zhuofu's face-
This scene made several lieutenants in front of the bed gasp, looking at each other and not knowing what to do.
Xu Zhuofu had long forgotten the existence of the deputy general beside him, and hugged Xu Zhuofu's trembling body tightly-
"Hemai......" he muttered.
There was an indescribable pain in his usually low and steady voice, like a bright pine and cypress suddenly burned by fire.
There was even a hint of crying in Rokuro's voice, and everyone was moved by this voice.
Even if it wasn't Xu Zhuofu's name, she admitted that her heart was pinched hard and she was sad and had trouble breathing.
"Brother Rokuro......" she whispered to him with tears in her eyes.
Liulang's eyes were originally fascinated, but they suddenly cleared up for three points, looked at the bed beam in a daze, and the hand that was originally holding Xu Zhuofu also loosened.
"You're not Hemai......," he said bitterly.
His wheat was never called Brother Liulang's......
His wheat, just Su Su standing there quietly and shouting "Liulang" softly was enough to make him scratch his heart and liver, and he was willing to pick the stars and hold the moon for her......
Xu Zhuofu was stunned, and the next moment several lieutenants came forward and invited him: "General Xu, the general is drunk, you better go back first, we can take care of it here......"
The soup bowl was snatched away from Xu Zhuofu's hand, and several lieutenants took turns to persuade him, each with a look in his eyes.
And nothing happened that night, but the gentle side that Rokuro gave Xu Zhuofu was like a glimpse, and it was difficult to erase in her heart.
Afterwards, she even went to Rokuro desperately and told her that as long as she could be with him, even if it was only for a day!
She is willing to stay by Rokuro's side without a name, isn't that okay?
Rokuro's resoluteness surprised her.
