Chapter Fifty-Seven: Relax My Heart

Today's update is shorter because there is no time. I didn't have time, because I was notified yesterday that I would write a year-end work summary before I was sent a red envelope...... I'm obviously just a supernumerary freelancer, and I'm not a regular employee...... As a result, it took two hours to write 200 words, and I died of pain, but I was really reluctant to take the big red envelope of 50,000 yuan...... So I'm going to continue writing today......

The convoy of Mu Wangfu turned away, and before long, only a trace of smoke and dust remained, gradually fading and sinking in the cold and hard air of midwinter.

Leaving the sheltered rock wall, the cold wind that had been squeezed and accelerated by the valley in front of him immediately swept the ground, blowing Mei Changsu's black hair into the air and rolling in the air.

The middle-aged guard who was accompanying him immediately walked over and tried to put the head pocket of the cloak on his shoulder, but was gently pushed away by the cold hands. Ahead is a soothing slope, the grass has long been hidden under the snow, and the sparse trees are scattered and scattered, and the dead branches are also very depressed. Mei Changsu looked at the faintly exposed corner of the skirt on the slope, reached out and stroked the hair that was blown by the wind on his face, and walked quickly up the slope until he reached the highest place, before slowly condensing his steps.

Under the cold branches and remnants of snow, the lord of Nihuang County stood in the wind, wearing a jade-colored cloak and hunting, which showed the awe-inspiring temperament of this southern handsome woman who was not afraid of the wind and cold.

Mei Changsu didn't expect the county lord to come, but since she had already come, he didn't think about avoiding it.

That little girl who used to be his, no matter how majestic she is now, no matter where her love has gone, can not change the most simple and innocent friendship back then, can not change the guilt and pity he has for her.

Hearing Mei Changsu's footsteps, the Nihuang County Lord turned his pretty face and showed him a soft smile.

Since that day when Wu Ying Hall broke up, the two have not seen each other again. But what should be said has already been passed on to Xia Dong, and with Nihuang's arrogant temperament, he will either break up with each other, or wait silently, and he will not be like an ordinary child, suspicious and worried, entangled and questioned.

So Mei Changsu couldn't guess why Nihuang deliberately took this opportunity to go out of the city to meet him.

"Mr. Su, I haven't seen you for a long time, have you been healthy lately?" The first sentence is always polite and cold, and it is a courtesy that makes people feel more alienated.

"Thanks to the lord of the county, everything is fine. Su moved to a snail house not long ago and received a generous gift from your house, but he has not been able to come to the door to thank him, please don't be surprised. ”

"Sir is gracious." Nihuang stepped closer, pinching the clouds of deerskin boots, girdle green cloud armor, the whole person was radiant and heroic, as if many troubles and grievances after coming to Beijing did not linger in her heart.

Mei Changsu couldn't help but smile, and praised: "Magnificent and magnificent, the moonlight wind, the county lord can be this eight characters." β€œ

"How can you compare Mr. to be as deep as the sea?" Nihuang smiled brightly, "Even Mr. Zhou will move for you, Jiang Zuomeng's strength is really unfathomable." ”

"It's just that they are all people who have fallen into the rivers and lakes, and they are destined to meet each other to form this alliance." Mei Changsu glanced at the county lord, couldn't bear to let her speak first, and directly brought the topic to the point, "In my alliance, righteousness comes first, and I don't overly restrain my subordinates, so ...... He couldn't come to the capital, not because there was a ban, but because there was a reason......"

"I don't want to ask this," Nihuang said calmly into his eyes, his eyes shining as bright as the morning star, "I know why he can't come." ”

"You know?" Mei Changsu was slightly surprised, "You mean to say ......"

"He went to Yunnan to help me, and he tried his best to save the situation, and everyone in the south admired him inexplicably, so although we quickly saw that he had changed his appearance, no one tried to find out his true appearance."

Mei Changsu lowered her eyes, and she had vaguely guessed what she was going to say next.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Later, we gradually fell in love, but he always wanted to avoid and refuse, I asked him many times, but he would not say why, until finally, he was forced to ask him tightly, and let me see his real face. ”

"Hmm......" Mei Changsu looked faint and put his fingers in his sleeve, "What about after reading it?" ”

"At first, I just felt familiar, but after a few more glances and a little more thought, I figured out who he was......" Although the Nihuang County Lord's lips kept a smile, there was a painful breath in his eyes, "He is a person from your Jiang Zuo League, you should also know his real name, right?" ”

Mei Changsu nodded expressionlessly, "Yes, I know." ”

"Then tell me about it."

"Nie Duo, one of the generals of the Red Flame Rebels, if anyone finds out that he is still alive, he is a prisoner of the imperial court."

"So," Ni Huang looked at him deeply, his eyes fierce, "Do you really want to take in and shelter such a person in Jiang Zuomeng, or do you plan to use him in the future?" ”

Mei Changsu slowly walked a few steps forward, held on to a half-withered old tree, and smiled miserably: "Of course I want to use him, Jiang Zuomeng took such a big risk to take in the imperial court, I'm afraid it's not to accumulate merit, right?" ”

The Nihuang County Lord raised his eyebrows, and a sudden anger flashed on his face: "Are you serious?" ”

Mei Changsu turned his head, his dark pupils were as bright as gems, and they were steadily fixed on the county lord's face, "What about really?" ”

"If you take it seriously, I will definitely take Nie Duo away, even if I pour all my strength into the Mu Palace, I must protect him thoroughly. This is not only because of my own affection for him, but also to repay him for his kindness in stabilizing the crisis in my southern border and saving my thousands of soldiers. ”

A smile mixed with sadness, emotion, relief, and melancholy floated on Mei Changsu's lips, he locked Nihuang's gaze, and shook his head gently, "You are the county lord, he is a traitor, how can you combine it justifiably?" How could His Majesty the Emperor agree to you marrying a prodigal son of unknown origin. What's more, since you know him, there are naturally others who recognize him, do you want to let him stay by your side for the rest of his life, just like this? ”

Nihuang bit her lower lip violently and turned her face to the side, stubbornly unwilling to let people see her fragile expression: "What if you don't do this? Ever since I knew he was Nie Duo, I knew that our future was not going to be easy. I had hoped that he would be able to participate in this son-in-law contest by pretending to be an identity, hoping that he would break in front of me one level after another, but until the end, he did not show up...... How many times have I looked at you and wanted to ask you what he thinks, but I am afraid that he is just hiding in Jiang Zuomeng, and you don't know who he is. It wasn't until later that you asked Sister Xia Dong to send a letter, and I confirmed that you knew his identity, because he even told you about the matter between us, and he should have nothing to hide from you. ”

"You're right," Mei Changsu's tone was extremely steady, as if with a soothing magic, "Nie Duo trusts me very much, he has no secrets to me, and I am the same to him. I now hope that you can trust me in the same way, and I will do my best so that you can stand together with dignity, and you can hold your wedding on the Yingfeng Tower, without masks, without disguises, with your real name, and accept anyone's blessings calmly......"

"How is this possible?" Nihuang's eyes widened in disbelief, "Unless the Red Flame Army can be rehabilitated, this is definitely just an unattainable dream." ”

"It's man-made," Mei Changsu said coldly, "Do you believe that the Red Flame Army is really a rebel?" ”

Nihuang took a step back, her shoulders trembling slightly, "I don't know...... I was a young ...... at the time I only know that the few people I know will never betray the king and commit treason...... But does it make sense to say this now? The iron case has been decided, and neither the prince nor King Yu will rehabilitate the Red Flame Army, because this old case was originally their most proud masterpiece! ”

"Yes, neither the crown prince nor King Yu will rehabilitate the Red Flame Army," Mei Changsu's gaze fell fixedly on the front, and a slight chill seemed to ooze from under his skin, "but no one thought of counting on them. …… In order to achieve this goal, there is actually only one way to go. ”

Nihuang's cherry lips trembled violently, her face turned pale and then flushed suddenly, and something that had been blurry gradually emerged from the mist, and the conclusion was already coming.

"King Jing...... You...... What you want to support is King Jing......"

Facing Mei Changsu's silence, Nihuang's mind was blank for a moment. But after all, she was a female general who had been on the battlefield, and she only took a few deep breaths, and then quickly stabilized her emotions and calmed down.

"You're right, it's true that only King Jing can ......" Lord Nihuang pursed his lips and paced a few steps in place, "but it's too difficult...... It's too difficult, and if you're not careful, you'll step into death and never look back. ”

"Who would want to turn back?" Mei Changsu said lightly, "In the future, you may be able to ask Nie Duo, has he ever thought about turning back for a moment?" ”

"Nie Duo, he's different, he's an old Red Flame man, and it's to wash away his grievances, but you're ......" Ni Huang stalked, as if he suddenly realized something, "You...... Who are you? Why did you take such a big risk for the sake of the Red Flame Army's old case? ”
