11 Strangers meet old acquaintances

But when she thought that Xiao Haotian would love the children born to other women like her father loved herself, she was in pain to death, and she would never be satisfied to look at them and smile. Her love is selfish, narrow-minded, and does not tolerate a grain of sand, let alone a child.

Xiao Haotian may be like his father, who loves his children more than anyone else in the world. Then in Xiao Haotian's heart, wouldn't his status be ranked behind this child.

Ling Dongwu thought about this question, and at the same time found that he cared so much about Xiao Haotian's son, and was so stingy and jealous, all because he cared about Xiao Haotian! This cognition made Ling Dongwu question his character, didn't he love Mu Zicheng deeply, didn't he want to die or live for Mu Zicheng, why did he start to care about Xiao Haotian again, could it be that his nature was a watery Yang Hua person, can't it!? Could it be that deep down in my heart, I have never forgotten Xiao Haotian for so many years, won't I!?

In a daze, Ling Dongwu finally fell asleep, and it seemed that he had been half-asleep and half-awake all the time. Vaguely felt that he had come to a world of birds and flowers, the eastern sky had shown the first glimmer of dawn, Mu Zicheng after the morning exercise, strode towards him with a long knife in his hand, because after the morning exercise, his forehead was full of sweat, and his body was full of the irrepressible vitality of young people, standing in front of him, staring at himself so deeply, his lips moved slightly, as if he was calling his name softly. She was ecstatic and stretched out her hand to hug him, but even at such a distance, it seemed that she couldn't reach it with all her strength, she was in a hurry, and shouted loudly: "Brother Zicheng...... Brother Zicheng ......"

I was startled and suddenly woke up. She touched her forehead, and it turned out to be a sweat. Since Mu Zicheng's death, the long night has become a kind of torture, whether he is dreaming or she is not dreaming, the pillow is always empty when he wakes up, with a chill to the bone. During these days, I was tired from traveling, and I fell asleep while lying in bed, and I rarely dreamed of Mu Zicheng. Even if I dream occasionally, I never see my face clearly. However, this time, she not only saw his face so clearly in her dream, but also saw the crystal clear beads of sweat on his forehead under the morning sun......

Could it be that Mu Zicheng knew that he came to the Northern Desert with Xiao Haotian, and he was unwilling, so he came to remind himself not to forget him! But everything that belongs to them is weathered into sand in time, and the grains are blown away, and they can no longer be traced, Mu Zicheng, he is really gone!

It was late at night, and there was silence all around. There was a "Taiping Watch" in the distance, three long and one short, and it was already the end of the year. There was no candle in the house, the moonlight sinking in the west penetrated, Ling Dongwu woke up from a frightened dream, she couldn't sleep anymore, she lay quietly for a while, got up and put on her clothes, pushed open the window, the moon outside the window was dark and the stars were dim, and the cold wind blew the cool of the north with a slight smell of dust and sand, she couldn't help but shiver.

There is no brightness in this world, even if it is moonlight, she said to herself: "Brother Zicheng, do you miss me, living alone in that barren mountain and wilderness, it must be lonely, do you think that I can come to be your companion?" ”

The two maids who were guarding the guard at the door were still napping, and at this time, they also woke up one after another when they heard the sound of Ling Dongwu opening the window, and ran over in a panic, knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly: "The girl spares her life, the slave maid is confused for a while, I don't know that the girl is awake, please spare the girl!" Their heads thumped, but in the blink of an eye, there was blood on the ground.

Ling Dongwu was stunned, and secretly sighed that these two people were too sincere, and they were so honest in kowtowing! However, I didn't say what happened to them, as for being scared like this? She hurriedly beckoned them to stop kowtowing immediately, and then looked at them in confusion, such a small thing, as for the use of the word sparing, she reacted for a while, thinking that since she entered the mansion, all the guards and slaves have been cautious, it must be Xiao Haotian who is ruthless, the family rules are naturally extremely strict, and the means of punishment will be extremely cruel.

She smiled faintly, raised her hand and said, "Get up, it turns out that I am not good, I don't sleep in the middle of the night, I run around, and you can't sleep." ”

When the two maids heard her say this, their faces were bloodless, and they trembled with fear, "Girl, spare your life, the slave will not dare next time." ”

Ling Dongwu knew that they thought they had said the opposite, so he shook his head helplessly, and said coldly: "You guys light up, if you don't get up, I will immediately ask the prince to kill you." ”

Only then did the two maids stand up, Ling Dongwu looked at their nervous and uneasy, and said, "You are so cautious, is the prince too strict?" ”

One of the more courageous maids said: "The prince has many things, often leads troops to fight, fights all the year round, and cannot stay at home for a few days a year, and the slaves and maids are all under the discipline of the lady. ”

"Luo Yange!" Ling Dongwu blurted out, and the beautiful and proud woman in red clothes on the grassland appeared in his mind, remembering the domineering woman he saw in front of the gate yesterday.

"Yes, ma'am."

"Madam, hasn't your prince yet married a wife?" Ling Dongwu suddenly felt like he had been deceived, could it be that Xiao Haotian had already corrected Luo Yange, and he was lying to himself along the way.

Seeing Ling Dongwu asking about something bolder, he said in a whisper: "Yes, it's the second lady, but we all call her Mrs. on weekdays!" ”

Ling Dongwu's heart when he mentioned his throat fell suddenly, that's right, it turned out that Luo Yange's vanity was doing the trick.

There was silence all around, the sky began to show the first rays of dawn, Ling Dongwu and the two maids talked for a while, but became sleepy, the maid lifted the Zhuluo tent for her, she was extremely sleepy, she didn't take off her clothes, and lay on the bed and fell asleep.

I slept very well this night, and when I woke up, the red sun was full of windows, and there was still silence in all directions. Only to see the window gap of the sun shadow wisps shining on the table on the bottle of magnolia flowers, white as jade, fragrant far away should be clear.

When the maids saw that Ling Dongwu had woken up, they rushed in, holding the washing bowl, while Ling Dongwu was lazily at the mercy of others. When I was finally combing my hair, I suddenly heard a warm voice in the condensation behind me, "You don't need to comb the young lady's bun, she is willing to let her do it." ”

Ling Dongwu turned around and saw Xiao Haotian standing behind him, he was wearing a thin cyan robe today, his hair was no longer tied up at will, but a golden crown of hair, the sun outside the window was rising minute by minute, through the window screen, the light in the room became brighter and brighter, he stood in the bright sunshine, Leng Jun was full of strength, and his eyes were firm and sharp. That look seemed to say: Even if the sky falls, I can bear it!

Ling Dongwu looked at Xiao Haotian in front of him, looking at his handsome face like a sculpture, something seemed to be reviving little by little in his body, and what seemed to be precipitating little by little......

Seeing Xiao Haotian take two steps closer to her, she suddenly woke up, "Lord Wang, morning." Ling Dongwu concealed his embarrassment, and randomly found a sentence to say to Xiao Haotian, his cheeks were crimson, and he turned his face away. He took the comb from the maid's hand, and combed his long hair for a while, and the hand holding the ivory comb was as white and delicate as the ivory, and the black hair was like a waterfall, and the light was recognizable.

Xiao Haotian only felt that the bright light in front of her was blurry, and she couldn't open her eyes, her head drooped slightly, and there was a surprisingly charming and tactful. After a while, he said in a dumb voice: "It's not early, it's going to be lunch soon." ”

When Ling Dongwu heard him say this, he was annoyed, and was about to speak, when a guard ran to the door, "Lord Wang, Lord Batu is here." ”

"Lord Batuu?" Ling Dongwu subconsciously repeated, and suddenly said happily: "It's Zhou Ze, it's Zhou Ze here!" ”

Seeing her like this, Xiao Haotian smiled helplessly, "Ling girl, do you want to go with this king to meet the old man?" ”

"Of course I want to, I really miss Zhou Ze." Ling Dongwu tied up his hair haphazardly and walked out of the room first. She didn't see Xiao Haotian's eyes behind her like the glow of the middle of the sky, dimming minute by minute.

In the hall, a man in military uniform was waiting, and when he saw Xiao Haotian coming out, he immediately said happily: "Big brother, you really came back, I heard the guard report yesterday, I thought he was talking nonsense, I really thought you were going to stay in Jingshan for a year, do you know ......?"

Ling Dongwu turned out from behind with a grin, interrupting Zhou Ze's gushing words, "Dude, I've come to see you!" ”

Zhou Ze looked at Ling Dongwu in front of him, stayed for a long time, and immediately jumped up in ecstasy, grabbed her shoulder, "Ling girl...... It's you? ”

Ling Dongwu laughed, "Isn't it me!" ”

Zhou Ze was overjoyed, but he didn't know what to say, and suddenly saw her dressed in women's clothes, a gorgeous dress embroidered with gold wire, mopping the floor, lining her graceful figure, black eyes like paint, looking at herself, the brilliance was uncertain.

And Xiao Haotian, who was standing beside her, was as handsome as a god, one was tall and handsome, one was petite and soft, one was cold and indifferent, and the other was smart and coquettish, obviously two extreme characters, but once they stood together, there was an indescribable harmony and tacit understanding, as if they were born to be a pair that should be together.

Zhou Ze knew that when he was in the siege, his ambiguous relationship with Ling Dongwu was completely over. He sneered and embarrassedly let go of the hand that was holding Ling Dongwu's shoulder, and rubbed his hands a little crampedly under Xiao Haotian's high-pressure gaze, "Ling girl, when did you come?" ”

"I arrived here yesterday. Hehe, I didn't expect to see you like this, even if you don't come today, I will go to you. ”

At this time, the maid walked up and said softly, "Lord Wang, the meal you ordered to prepare for Miss Ling has been prepared." ”

Xiao Haotian saw that Ling Dongwu and Zhou Ze looked like they had met in a foreign country and were inseparable, patted Zhou Ze's shoulder, looked at Ling Dongwu again, and said, "In this case, if you don't have anything to do today, stay and eat together." ”
