If you kill Chu Qingchen, Baili Mansion will be implicated by yourself, and if you don't kill Chu Qingchen, there will be no more Lin Nuoya in the world. What's more, there is also a Ah Ding who has sacrificed his life countless times for himself. When was there such a deep moat between her and Baili Jiu? The simple stay together has become unattainable.

Partial, she can't say, how can she bear to let the man she loves face such a dilemma with herself? Brothers and lovers, loyalty and righteousness, how does he choose? No matter how you choose, it's all wrong, how painful torture and tug-of-war you have to endure in your heart?

The long pain is better than the short pain, the general's mansion, and he may never be able to go back.

The weather outside is so warm, and Noah has been in a cool autumn breeze since she woke up in Linlang Pavilion. After a harsh winter, she felt that the wind of Da Chu had never been so gentle and warm, but why was her heart frozen?

Feng Chi drove the carriage from behind and stopped beside her, and Chu Qingchen did not lift the curtain: "You can choose again now, get into my carriage or turn back?" ”

Noah stood down and clenched her fists tightly. She knew that Baili Jiu must be standing behind her, watching the direction she was leaving. She was ruthless and twisted into Chu Qingchen's carriage: "Since I said it, there is nothing to regret." However, it seems to be dragging you down again. ”

Chu Qingchen didn't speak, and handed her a handkerchief.

She took it in her hand and twisted it into a twist.

"The veil is for wiping your face."

She involuntarily wiped her face, only to find that her face was wet.

"It's really unproductive." She laughed self-deprecatingly: "You've seen the joke again." ”

"I've never taken it as a joke." Chu Tianchen said indifferently: "I will only feel distressed." ”

She wiped her face clean, her nose was a little blocked, and she thought, if it was Baili Jiu sitting opposite, she would definitely not care about her own image, "snort" to blow it out, and then put the handkerchief in a ball and threw it on his face full of disgust. In front of Chu Tianchen, she felt that it was an offense.

How can you think of him again? Noya was unprovoked and a little sad, and sniffed: "But I'm the joke of the whole Da Chu now, if you take me in, aren't you afraid of provoking gossip?" ”

Chu Tianchen looked at her inquiringly: "Xiao Jiu has wronged you, hasn't he?" ”

Noah wanted to say it, but how could Qin Bao'er's shameful privacy be said? He snorted angrily and covered it up: "It's me who is careful, and I don't want to watch him marry another woman, even if it's Qin Darling." ”

"I understand." Chu Tianchen agreed: "Feelings are originally extremely holy existences, and they cannot be tarnished by the invasion of others. Spirited Away is a thousand like, a lifetime and a couple. ”

Nuoya had long heard that Chu Tianchen had said in front of the emperor that he would only marry one wife in his life, and today I heard him say it in person, and the impact and shock in his heart were still incomparable.

In this world, a lifetime and a couple is just a woman's luxury, a dream that will never be attainable, but from the mouth of Chu Tianchen, who is admired and worshiped by thousands of girls in Dachu, Noya still feels unbelievable.

"I thought I was the only one who was greedy." Noah said with a wry smile.

"I'm just as harsh. But unlike you, I was born from the heart, once the sea was difficult to water, except that Wushan is not a cloud, I can never find a second similar person in this world, and I am not willing to settle. ”

Chu Tianchen's every word has a mystery, and Noya doesn't dare to ask or say, lest he be careless and will never be able to get along so calmly.

The two were silent for a while, neither of them spoke, and the carriage passed through the streets and alleys, and went straight to the bamboo garden.

Noah's heart finally calmed down for the time being, and she was no longer as worried as she was yesterday. She took a comfortable hot bath, changed into the men's clothes on her body, and put on the skirt that Chu Qingchen prepared for her, full of exhaustion.

Chu Qingchen was sitting on a smooth lying stone in front of the bamboo forest and playing the flute, the flute sound was brisk, as if it was a bamboo forest under the moon, and there was a spring sound.

Noah walked over softly and sat down next to him, her wet hair hanging down behind her and scattered on the stones, with a faint scent of flowers.

Chu Qingchen sighed, put the flute down, took out a snow-white handkerchief from his arms, and naturally leaned over to help her wipe the water droplets in her hair.

Noah blushed and hurriedly took it in his hand: "I'll just come by myself." ”

Chu Qingchen put his fist against his mouth, and the fragrance of flowers stained on his fingertips was wisps.

"Why didn't you ask me where I went some time ago?"

Chu Qingchen smiled slightly: "If you want to say it, you don't need me to ask at all." As long as you are not wronged, whatever is fine. ”

Noah was secretly thinking in her heart, if she changed to Baili Jiu, she would definitely keep asking where she had gone and who she was with, and then chase her out of the city with a snort, and tie up the phantom back to let her fall, right? Oh no, he wouldn't have let the Phantom out of the city at all.

"I was taken deep into the mountains, it seems to be the Taihang Mountains, quite far from here."

"No wonder all the people around the capital have been searched, but they haven't found your whereabouts."

"The one who captured me, or saved me, was a killer."

"It's the one with you, right?"

"Well," Noah replied in a low voice, "he was kind to me and saved my life, so I let him go." ”

Chu Qingchen didn't ask, he captured Noya and took him to the mountains to hide, what was it for.

"You saved me again." Noah was embarrassed and said, "I may still have to stay in your house and cause trouble for you." ”

"As I said, I'm happy to eat it."

Noya's face turned red, and she was a little at a loss: "I will ask Peony to pay attention to the house in the capital as soon as possible, that is, three or four days." ”

"You can stay as long as you want."

Chu Qingchen didn't look at her, and on the lips of the transverse flute, a song "Baitou Yin" poured out, lingering and tossing, like crying and complaining.

It is said that life is elegant, piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, hops and tea, those who are good at the piano are able to be calm, those who are good at chess are wise and wise, those who are good at writing are affectionate and sexual, and those who are good at painting are perfect and beautiful, and Chu Qingchen understands music and rhythm, fine chess, through hundreds of schools, good Danqing, no wonder, just his gestures can be popular in Da Chu, and his open-minded and calm heart is by no means comparable to ordinary people.

Only then did Noah realize that he seemed to have lost weight, his cheeks were sunken, his face was not good-looking, and he was wearing white clothes on his body, which was a little loose.

She thought that if she hadn't married into the General's Mansion and she was still just a cook in Linlang Pavilion, then she would definitely fall in love at first sight when she saw a man like Chu Qingchen at first sight. However, at that time, he was covered in the smell of oil smoke, his hands were black, and he was like a gray face pulled out of charcoal ash, and he may not have the courage to like him, and he may not pay attention to himself in his eyes. Even if you start all over again, it's just a passing by.

Noya doesn't understand the rhythm, just admired, but couldn't hear the subtlety, Chu Qingchen's flute sound was a bit of a cow playing the piano. Especially after a long journey, she took a hot bath and was tired, and her whole body was comfortable, but it was difficult to hide her sleepiness, sitting on the hot stone, blowing the drunken spring breeze, burying her chin in her knees, listening quietly, and falling asleep.

The sound of the flute gradually softened, gentle, softer and softer, and her heart was still, and then she really fell asleep. The body slowly leaned down, leaning on Chu Qingchen's body, unaware.

Chu Qingchen put down the flute in his hand, sighed lightly, wrapped his arms around her, took her in his arms, pillowed her on his lap, and then took the cloak on the side and covered her carefully.

There was silence in the bamboo garden, and Chu Qingchen didn't do anything, just looked at the person in his arms dementedly. The sun was setting, and the gentle sunlight was mottled on her face through the bamboo forest, and the fine fluff was clearly visible.

When she fell asleep, she completely relaxed her guard, peaceful and serene, her delicate porcelain skin seemed to be breathing gently, blowing and breaking, and it was lovable. The clothes she wore were a little loose, and the neckline was open, revealing a delicate collarbone, and a cluster of delicate begonias on the collarbone was like the first rain and dew, and she was shy.

There was a wind blowing through the bamboo forest, rustling, disturbing Chu Qingchen's heart lake, and he was also a little inexplicably restless.

He bent down and brushed away a bamboo leaf that had fallen on Noah's body, and gently imprinted a coveted lip print on her forehead.

I can't hate, just like that, time stands still, or it's eternal.

When Noah woke up, it was almost dusk, and she slept in Chu Qingchen's study, shrouded in the smell of books.

She thought about it, she seemed to have fallen asleep listening to Chu Qingchen's flute, could it be that he carried herself in? It's a shame, it's so incomprehensible.

She sat up, rubbed her face vigorously, got out of bed and walked out, the courtyard had already held the glass lamp, and the faint light of dusk and the lamp reflected each other, adding a bit of seclusion to the bamboo garden with swaying bamboo shadows.

The door of Chu Qingchen's room was ajar, and Nuoya stood at the door and called softly, but no one answered. Curiously, she pushed the door open and poked her head in, and the room was silent, with no half of a figure in sight.

When the door opened, the wind swept in, and the two pieces of rice paper on the desk struggled twice, were dragged by the wind, and fell to the ground.

Noah thought about it, walked into the room, picked up the paper that had fallen on the ground, gently placed it on the table, and took the ballast on the side and pressed it.

Inadvertently, she caught a glimpse of a painting on the table that had not yet been finished, and she was curious, so she leaned over, and with a little afterglow, it was a vague picture of a lady's spring sleep. A woman is lying on a boulder, her long hair is dragging to the ground, she is sleeping soundly with her eyes closed, her shirt is gently swayed by the wind, and a delicate begonia looms at the neckline.

She "coaxed" in her brain, could it be that Chu Qingchen painted herself? Barely holding back the throbbing in her heart, Nuoya picked up the rice paper and looked at the light outside the door.

The painting has already been completed, and it should be that the ink has not dried at that time, so it has not been put away. After she panicked, she laughed at herself, this Chu Qingchen is really an elegant with interest, and he secretly slept by himself, and he painted such a charm. You're being amorous again, aren't you?
