The night was silent.

Shangguan Jiyue glanced at the lonely thin figure on a poplar tree in the distance, and with a light tap of her toes, the person turned into a breeze and floated down on Mo Yi's side, sitting casually on the trunk next to him.

Neither of them spoke, as if there was a tacit understanding, and at the same time, through the gaps in the branches and leaves of the poplar trees, they looked at the few stars hanging sparsely in the sky.

A cool night breeze blows, the branches sway, and the leaves of the aspen trees rattle slightly, accompanied by the low chirping of unknown insects, which is the only music in the night.

Shangguan Jiyue still maintained her original posture, as if inadvertently whispered: "Mo Yi, since some things can't be changed, let them pass, let alone let it disturb your heart." ”

Mo was stiff, turned his head slightly to look at Shangguan Jiyue's quiet side face, was silent for a moment, lowered his head and smiled bitterly: "Brother Qi, I know what you want to say, don't worry, I have accepted the matter of big brother." ”

Shangguan Jiyue was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting Mo Yi to say this, and couldn't help but turn sideways and look at Mo Yi.

Under the night, the ink face is calm, a pair of peach blossom eyes are clear and far-reaching, and the clear facial features are more and more handsome.

Shangguan Jiyue sighed in her heart that the impulsive and willful boy who was once had unconsciously slowly become a handsome man like the one in front of him.

As if sensing Shangguan Jiyue's gaze, Mo Yi slowly raised his head, looked at the woman beside him, and smiled lightly: "Brother Qi, what's wrong?" ”

Shangguan Jiyue looked at Mo Yi and was in a trance for a moment. Mo Yi's shallow smile just now gradually merged with that boundless face.

Shangguan Jiyue laughed at herself, shook her head and shook off the strange thoughts that suddenly popped up in her mind, and smiled faintly: "It's not much...... It's just that it's rare to see you so quiet, and I'm a little unaccustomed to it for a while. ”

"People have to grow up, I think...... Maybe it's time for me to grow up......" Mo Yi's gaze fixed on the silent night in the distance.

"If you can really let it go, I'll be happy for you." Shangguan Jiyue paused, "Actually, I'm still worried that you won't be able to think about it, and you have to give up everything in the current army and give up these brothers who once lived and died with you......" Shangguan Jiyue smiled, with obvious relief in her tone, "It seems that I have thought too much." ”

"If I had done it before, I might have given up." Mo Yi's gaze was firm and brave, and he said word by word, "But now, Brother Qi, I won't." ”

Shangguan Jiyue smiled: "Why? ”

Mo Yi's expression had a relieved calmness and a fleeting gloom, and he said slowly: "The moment I knew that my eldest brother was the city lord of Wucheng, I was indeed confused, and considering my identity was embarrassing, I was also at a loss. However, when the eldest brother told me how he got this identity, all I felt in my heart was the distress for him. I never knew that my eldest brother had such a hard time all these years......"

As soon as Mo said this, he paused, his voice was a little choked, and his eyes were slightly red, as if he was forcibly suppressing something.

Seeing this, Shangguan Jiyue's heart softened, and she opened her mouth to comfort Mo Yi, but she didn't say anything, but only reached out and patted him on the shoulder.

She knew that he could only feel better if he was allowed to say it now, otherwise, who else could he talk to but her?

Mo Yi was silent for a while, and then said: "When I was a child, my mother passed away early, and my father was not in good health. My eldest brother loves me in every way, but I take it for granted and enjoy all this with peace of mind. also teases the eldest brother from time to time, and some things are against him everywhere...... My eldest brother has been better than me since he was a child, better than me in all aspects, and his temperament is gentle and elegant, and he will always be like that with a shallow smile. I've grown so big, I've never seen him lose his temper, and no matter how excessive I did, he would at most lock me up in the village village and ignore me...

It wasn't until that day, in Wucheng, that my eldest brother personally told my mother about it, that I realized that I had been so willful and reckless before, and I had lived a happy life under the wings of my eldest brother for sixteen years. I never found that behind the eldest brother's unchanged warm smile, there was a sadness and hard support that had been silent for many years.

At that time, my mother passed away, and my father was too sad to get sick, and even if his condition improved later, his health was not as good as before. It was the eldest brother who repeatedly begged his grandfather, saying that his mother's bones were not cold, and let him stay in Jian'an for the time being to take care of his father and young me, which was the ......"

Mo Yi's tears couldn't stop flowing, and there was some endless chagrin and repentance in his trembling voice: "But I'...... What have I done all these years? Not only did he deliberately make the eldest brother angry, but he didn't understand his good intentions, and he couldn't see that the eldest brother was struggling to support the Shen family's century-old foundation alone, and he had to go back to Wucheng from time to time, and he was tired from traveling back and forth...... Others only see the brilliance of the eldest brother on the surface, but no one knows that he has really worked hard over the years......"

Shangguan Jiyue looked at Mo's eyes flushed, almost out of control, pondered for a moment, and comforted gently: "Young Master Shen is indeed a person worthy of admiration, you should be proud and proud to have such a brother, isn't it?" ”

Mo Yi was stunned one by one: "Brother Qi, do you really think so?" ”

Shangguan Jiyue smiled lightly: "Of course! ”

"But big brother, he treated you like that at the beginning, and he almost ......"

I almost forced you to marry you, but Mo didn't say this sentence several times.

"But in the end, he didn't do that, even if I hadn't found that Fang Jinpa, I believe him, he would never have had that wedding."

Mo Yi wiped the corners of his eyes with his sleeve indiscriminately, and pulled the corners of his lips from the bottom of his heart: "Brother Qi, if Big Brother knows that you think like this, I don't know how happy he will be." ”

"Actually, there are some things that I only figured out not long ago."

"What's the matter?"

Shangguan Jiyue looked at Mo Yi fixedly, and said quietly: "A person as careful as your eldest brother has lost the Jinpa he carried with him, how can he really not notice it?" ”

Mo Yi was stunned one by one, and gradually widened his eyes: "Brother Qi, what do you mean...... It was the eldest brother who deliberately ...... Deliberately let you find out who he is?! ”

"Now, only this one explanation can make sense......"

After Shangguan Jiyue finished speaking, she took her eyes off Mo Yi and stared at the void in the direction of due south, but her heart was inexplicably sour and moved.

I thought of the slender moon-white figure, the clear and gentle phoenix eyes, and the faint sadness buried deep in the eyes...... Even if Fengyue is not concerned, Shangguan Jiyue is also uncomfortable in his chest at this time.

Shen Peifeng, as Tsinghua as boundless as you, why did you fall in love with someone who couldn't respond to you? In this life, you are so affectionate, is it fate or calamity? If there is really cause and effect in the world, is it predestined in the dark?

I hope you can cut off the unvained thread of you and me, find a person who loves you, and accompany you in this life, so that I can have peace of mind......

Mo Yi never spoke, his eyelashes drooped, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

At this moment, another night wind blew, raising the leaves of the poplar tree to "rattle", but the insects suddenly stopped chirping. The night was even more silent, except for the light of the torches in the barracks and the faint light of the oil lamps in the tent not far away......
