Chapter Ninety-Four: The Branches Must Be Broken

Without further ado, he quickly soaked his clothes and wrapped himself in clothes, and when he opened the door of the room, Xuanyuan Chen was hugging his shoulders and curling his lips and smiling not far away.

My face burned, and I turned back to the room, and he came in, and after closing the door, he went directly to the couch and lay down in his suit.

It was midnight, and I hesitated, then went back to the couch and lowered the curtain.

The rain was still falling outside, thundering and lightning, but there was a strange silence inside the house.

Listening to the raindrops knocking on the window lattice, the crackling sound, the heart kept beating, obviously very sleepy, but I just couldn't sleep.

I rolled over on my side, my eyes closed, and I was sleepy, but I was getting more and more energetic.

"Little girl, can't you sleep?" Xuanyuan Chen's voice came softly.

I didn't reply, so he chuckled and said, "Since I can't sleep, I'll tell you a story." ”

I'm a little helpless, I'm not a child, what kind of story.

He paused for a moment, and then began to say slowly, "I'll tell you about an incident when I was a child with my imperial brother." ”

"The central continent is cold, and it is not too hot in spring and autumn, but the climate is slightly higher in summer. Seven miles out of the city from the palace, there is a snow-capped mountain, which does not melt through the snow all year round. But there is a gap in the mountainside, drill into it from the crack, it is another appearance inside, the spring flowers are prosperous, the leaves are green, it is very pleasing to the eye, the most important thing is that there is a kind of green lotus grass in it, it is a rare herb, the queen mother likes medical science, and found the crack when going up the mountain to collect medicine, and then, he took me and the royal brother to go twice. ”

If I remember correctly, Ji Yunchang also said about this place, it turned out that this place was seven miles away from the Zhonglu Palace. I thought it was interesting, so I pricked up my ears and listened carefully.

"Because of the cold seasons, the summer in the middle of the continent is a little hot, and my brother and I were very naughty when we were children, and when we were bored, we would often sneak out of the palace and run into the cracks to play, and later, we got some thick branches, and built a simple little pavilion there. The two of us were tired of playing, so we went into the tree pavilion to rest. ”

At first, the queen mother couldn't find me and the imperial brother, she was very anxious, but then she found the pavilion, and when she couldn't find us, she went to the mountain crevices to look for it, and every time she could find it, she also left the palace at will.

That time, my brother and I knocked over the medicine stove of the queen mother, and for fear of being scolded, we ran to the crack in the mountain again, thinking that we would go to rest in our tree pavilion, but we thought that there was a girl sleeping in the pavilion.

That girl, there is a small medicine Lou next to her, who should also go up the mountain to collect medicine. When my brother saw that she slept soundly, he was amused, so he caught a green worm, put it on the placket of her garment, and twisted her hair into a little rope, and scratched it a few times by her ear, and the girl awoke. ”

"That girl, was you scared to cry?" I asked out loud.

Xuanyuan Chen said, "Imperial Brother Xu also thinks so, who knows, the situation is not like that at all, after the girl woke up, she glanced at the green worm at a glance, and there was no fear on her face, and with just a flick, the little insect flew out." ”

The royal brother felt bored, so he thought of new tricks to trick her, and she accepted them one by one.

Since then, my brother and I have often gone to the Tree Pavilion and often seen the little girl. In this way, half a year passed in a flash.

In the past six months, the imperial brother has slowly stopped tricking her, and she began to smile sweetly when she saw the imperial brother.

Such a day is very beautiful, and when the father and queen mother knew about it, they all felt that the two of them were childhood sweethearts, which was really good.

That's it, after another half a year, the royal brother gradually, he didn't drag me to the mountain crevice tree pavilion, that day, the imperial brother dressed very beautifully, tied up his favorite Luo Guan, and left happily. But he didn't come back that day in the evening.

My father sent the Praetorian Guards to look for him, and I followed.

We went to the crack in the mountain, but there was no one inside, and there was no one in the pavilion, so everyone was in a hurry, so they began to look for it. In the end, he finally found the royal brother who had dug out the snow with his hands in the depths of the snow-capped mountains. ”

I thought of something in my heart, and asked tentatively, "Did something happen to that girl?" ”

He slowed down for a while, and said in a low tone, "That day, there was an avalanche in the snowy mountain, and the girl was buried in the depths of the snowy mountain forever. ”

I felt a little regretful in my heart, and I heard him say again, "The imperial brother later told me that that day, the imperial brother told her that her father and queen mother liked her very much and wanted to meet her, but the girl was poor and felt that it should be better to give those congratulatory gifts, so he took the imperial brother to the depths of the snowy mountains." They found an epiphyllum on the cliff of the snowy mountain, and when they got closer, they found that it was a double-pedicled epiphany, one of which was blooming, and the other flower stem was actually bearing epiphany. ”

My mind moved, "Is there really an epiphany?" ”

Xuanyuan Chen said, "The book says that there is, but it is really an epiphany, everyone has seen it for the first time, and the girl resolutely climbed the cliff regardless of the danger, and it was just as soon as the epiphany fruit was picked, and it was an avalanche." ”

"Since that day, the imperial brother has not eaten or drunk, and every day he has taken people to dig in the place where the snow-capped mountain has collapsed, and finally on the tenth day, the girl's body was dug up. The girl was smiling, and in her hand she was clutching the withered epiphany. ”

I listened a little heavily, so I sighed softly, "It's a pity." ”

Xuanyuan Chen also sighed lightly, "But it's a pity, since then, the imperial brother has been like a different person, from the original lively and cheerful, to taciturn, these years have never been close to other women, let alone married a concubine, until now, there is still an emperor and no queen in Zhonglu." ”

The more I listened to it, the heavier it became, so I sighed and deliberately opened the topic, "So, many years ago, you came to Xiqi to marry Princess Heshuo for your imperial brother?" ”

Xuanyuan Chen seemed to smile and said, "I have already said that over the years, he has not been close to other women, and the matter after marrying is naturally not what he meant." Don't you understand, why did I come back then? ”

I was silent, not talking.

He sighed lightly and said, "When there are flowers, you need to fold them, don't wait for nothing to break the branches, how many people want to cherish it, it's already impossible, little girl, I'm by your side, you have to cherish me, don't always snore, be gentle, especially for me, you must be gentle." ”

I exhaled for a while, it turned out that he said so much, this sentence is the key, I really don't miss the slightest opportunity to say such things.

After secretly scarring for a while, I was a little sleepy, turned over and covered the quilt, and fell asleep after a while.

I slept lightly, that is, when I was in a hurry, and I woke up. Gently pull the curtain to see, Xuanyuan Chen is sleeping incense, Xu is chair is not very comfortable, he curled up, wrapped his head in a quilt, like a big cicada chrysalis.

It wasn't yet dawn outside, but the rain had stopped.

I saw that he was sleeping very soundly, hesitated for a moment, but still quietly went to the ground, took the package with the lightest movement, went downstairs all the way, took my BMW and pulled it to the road, jumped up lightly, and then broke into the morning morning.

Playing horses all the way, about an hour, I was slightly hungry in my belly, and then I remembered that I was in a hurry to leave in the morning and did not eat breakfast.

When he saw a pavilion in front of him from a distance, he rode over, thinking that he would go there to rest and eat something by the way.

The man wore a coarse cloth coat, a pair of leggings, a pair of lace-up shoes, a coarse cloth towel around his head, and some beard sticking to his lips.

This is not Xuanyuan Chen, who else will it be......

It's really ghostly, I got up early and drove the sweaty BMW for so long, and he actually waited here in advance.

If I had known this, I wouldn't have left early......

Seeing that I had arrived, he curled the corners of his lips and did not mention anything about me getting up in the morning without saying goodbye, but beckoned me to go over and take out the steamed buns that were still steaming, and handed them to me, "There is nothing delicious in the backwoods, and I asked the store, who is this steamed bun is good, come and taste it." ”

He took out a small bamboo tube again, and said, "I'm afraid you won't eat enough, so I asked the store to buy two eight-treasure porridge, and I drank a bucket when I was hungry on the way, and the taste is quite light, you can come and taste it." ”

So saying, he took the porridge back with it.

There are hot things, so I naturally don't eat jerky and drink cold water, and take a bite of the bun, well, pork and green onion filling, the taste is okay.

"Drink some eight-treasure porridge." He watched me eat two buns, handed over the bamboo bucket, I didn't doubt him, took a big sip, paused, and spit it all out.

"Poof...... Ahem. I coughed, Xuanyuan Chen helped me pat my back, and opened the mouth of his water bag and handed it to me, I didn't answer, I picked up my cowhide water bag, and rinsed my mouth.

Spicy and salty, this is eight-treasure porridge, it is clearly a jar of condiments!

I looked up angrily, but saw that he took out another bamboo tube out of nowhere, looked unhappy, and said with a little distress, "Little girl, if you sneak away alone next time, I will put more salt ......"
