In a private room in the teahouse here, a green-robed man picked up a teacup, raised the corners of his mouth lightly, and smiled at the white-robed man opposite: "You kid can, you have found a good storyteller!" ”

"It's funny, it should be said that the storyteller that Brother Mo is looking for is very good!" The white-robed man replied seriously.

This white-robed man is Chu Juechen, the third highness of Great Qi, and the blue-robed man opposite is none other than Qin Liumo, the son of the Qin family.

"Good tea!" Qin Liumo took a sip of the tea in the cup, "Isn't it good for me to ask the storyteller to rap about the heroic deeds of your third highness in Linjun, which is close to the Northern Desert?" But I didn't expect you to be bought, talking nonsense here, saying that my sister is like a fairy, how will I marry in the future? You're responsible for my sister! ”

Chu Juechen smiled and said nothing, in fact, he had long wanted to be responsible for her in his heart, but he just didn't say it, not that he didn't want to say it but didn't dare to say it, Chu Juechen understood his current situation, she didn't want Liusu to follow him to be frightened and panicked.

Qin Liumo seemed to see what Chu Juechen was thinking, so he didn't continue to talk about this topic, and instead said: "The queen has worked hard for this group banquet, but in the end she is busy in vain, I'm afraid she won't give up!" ”

Chu Jiechen looked pensive, "Actually, I'm more worried about the identity of the queen. ”

"Oh? The status of the Queen? Qin Liumo looked at Chu Juechen in surprise.

"The queen was originally the princess of the Liao Kingdom, and after the death of the Liao Kingdom, she was recruited as a concubine by her father, and finally achieved the position of the queen step by step," Chu Jiechen looked in the direction of the original Liao Kingdom with a worried face, "For so many years, the queen's heart to restore the country has not died, and she has secretly cultivated her own forces, colluding with the Northern Desert outside the Guan. I'm afraid ......"

"Are you afraid that the queen is bent on Chu Lian becoming the emperor not only for the sake of the mother of the world and becoming the queen mother, but also wants to use the national strength of Daqi to help him restore the country?" Qin Liumo answered.

"That's right! That's not all that scares me. Chu Lian had nothing to do all day long in the eyes of others, and he wandered in the fireworks alley. But according to the report of the spies I left with him, Chu Lian is a very deep person in the city and is familiar with history books! And I haven't shown his talent in front of the world all these years, and I don't know much about his ability! ”

"Now that the Northern Desert is getting stronger and stronger, it has long been eyeing our Daqi. The father is getting old and declining, and the queen is bewitching by the pillow. Today's Daqi can be described as having internal and external troubles! Speaking of this, Chu Jiechen looked at Qin Liumo, "The Qin family is a loyal martyr, and since the day of the founding of the Great Qi, he has served as the Taifu and taught many princes, and now that the Great Qi is in danger, you and the teacher will definitely wish me a helping hand!" ”

"I naturally understand this, Daqi and my Qin family are cold. What's more, as a courtier, even if your head is different, you will definitely protect me and the prosperity of the country, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. ”

Qin Liumo couldn't help but think of his sister, and continued: "The two of us have grown up together since childhood, and I understand what kind of relationship you have with Liusu. I know that in your heart, you have long believed that Liusu is your person, and I also know that in Liusu's heart, you will not marry. But it's not a problem for you to drag it out like this! I don't know how many more years it will take when you ascend the throne, and then I don't know who the woman is by then! ”

After speaking, Qin Liumo got up and tidied up his robe, and without saying goodbye to Chu Juechen, he walked straight towards the door.

"Wait!" Just as Qin Liumo was about to push the door out, Chu Juechen hurriedly called out to him.

Qin Liumo turned his back to Chu Juechen, with a treacherous and weird smile on his face, thinking: This kid has still fallen into my trap! Immediately, Qin Liumo relaxed his facial muscles, turned around and said coldly, "What's the matter?" ”

"I ...... I ......" Chu Juechen regretted that he shouldn't have stopped Qin Liumo, but when he heard that his beloved Liusu would be his wife, he couldn't help but speak.

"Why are you procrastinating now, where is the arrogance of the Northern Desert Wolf Army back then?" Qin Liumo couldn't help but blurt out and scolded, everyone's demeanor was lost, "Do you want me to help you make an appointment with Liusu?" Isn't it? ”

At this moment, Chu Juechen didn't know what to say, he touched his forehead awkwardly, and scolded in a low voice: "Damn, I've fallen into your trap!" ”

It was night, the moonlight was as clear as snow, and the wind caressed the leaves outside the window, making a soft "rustle" sound.

The moonlight shined through the dense trees next to Ramadan and through the windows, reflecting on Qin Liusu's beautiful face.

Although it was late at night, Qin Liusu didn't feel sleepy, maybe because he had slept too much in the morning, or maybe because when Chu Lian stretched out his colorful head to her last night, the person had no displeased expression.

She couldn't fathom the man's thoughts.

Tonight's moonlight looks like the past.

When he was young, he and her were commensurate with the second brother and sister, and when he was ignorant, he didn't know the relationship between men and women, and he only felt that the two were like brothers and sisters. Together with his eldest brother, he followed his father to learn ancient literature and poetry, and became the way of the emperor. Although her mother is a woman who fights on the battlefield with guns, she has good cooking skills, and often makes some delicious pastries in her small belly pocket, and Xiao Liusu will hide under the window where the two brothers are reading, while listening to the sound of the two brothers reading, while eating those delicious small pastries, and sometimes taking advantage of his father's absence, secretly put the pastries on the table of the two brothers.

After thinking about it for a long time, Liusu's nose was a little sour.

Liusu sometimes thinks: If he is not the Miss of the Qin family, and he is not the Third Highness of the Great Qi, then they may have married and lived a life of male farmers and female weavers, right?

But her fate has been decided, and only the smoke and clouds of the past can give her a moment of peace. Over the years, she often thinks of the past, and whenever she thinks of the ignorant feelings when she was young, she will make his face warm.

The Lantern Festival when Chu Juechen was 17 years old was the last Lantern Festival that Chu Juechen accompanied her to the Qin family. After this Lantern Festival, Chu Jiechen will go out with the army with his eldest brother Qin Liumo to fight against the Northern Desert Wolf Army that invaded Daqi.

It was a lively night, and the Baique Bridge outside the city was crowded with people, and lanterns could be seen everywhere.

Qin Liusu, who has been in the Qin family's compound for a long time, has never seen such a lively scene, so he naturally wanders around, touching this and that. Chu Jiechen, who was following him, couldn't see Qin Liusu in a blink of an eye.

"Girl, buy a boat lamp!" But how could Qin Liusu, who only had lanterns, find out that she was lost with Chu Juechen, and her attention was all attracted by an old woman who was sitting on the side of the road and constantly weaving all kinds of lanterns in her hands.

Seeing her staring at herself, the old woman continued with a kind face: "It is said that if any girl lights a boat lamp with her own hands and puts him on the Baique River under this Baique Bridge. If you are picked up by a son, then that son is the girl you like! ”

"Really?" Qin Liusu will be skeptical.

The old woman was still kind and laughed, "Can my wife still lie to you, this little girl?" That's true! Look at the boat lights on the river, many girls have found their sweethearts here!"

"How much, I want it!" A deep voice sounded in Qin Liusu's ears.

Qin Liusu looked up and saw that the person was Chu Juechen, and secretly wondered when the second brother's voice became like this, in his memory, the second brother had always been the child who was willing to fight for him.

Just paid the money, Qin Liusu followed Chu Jiechen with the boat lamp and asked him, "When did the second brother start to believe in this kind of unfounded words?" ”

"Oh, I just think it's interesting, and I see a lot of boat lights on the river, and it's pretty good." Chu Juechen explained.

Just like that, when they arrived at the river, Chu Jiechen helped Liusu to light up the boat lights.

"If this legend is true, then who do you think my crush will be?" Liusu asked innocently, holding the lit boat lamp.

Chu Juechen looked at her face and didn't answer, just muttered, "You'll find out later." ”

Liusu held the lamp, closed his eyes, and made a wish shyly: "Just let me see the person I like!" With that, gently put the lamp into the river.

The ship's lights drifted slowly towards the middle of the river with the ripples, and the lights were swaying by the wind, as if they were about to be blown out. Suddenly, Chu Juechen beside him jumped into the river.

Although it was past Chinese New Year's Eve, the river was still cold and biting. His jump frightened the young Liusu, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

At this time, Chu Jiechen had already swam into the river, got the boat lamp that had just been Liusu, and shouted at Qin Liusu: "Little sister, tomorrow I will go to the Northern Desert, and when I become famous, I will marry you, do you think it's okay?" ”

Qin Liusu looked at Chu Jiechen standing in the river, the water slid down the long hair in front of his forehead, sliding over the face with tough features, there was a small mark on it, it was a trace that had protected her.

Liusu didn't say anything, just looked at him with teary eyes and nodded vigorously.

The next day, Chu Juechen set off.

Soon after he set off, there was good news from the north that Chu Juechen had retreated from the Northern Desert Wolf Army. Liusu didn't do anything all day, just went out early in the morning and ran to the Baique Bridge to wait for him to come back, and this wait was only a year.

Finally when he returned, he didn't mention a word. Then Chu Juechen moved out of the Qin family and moved to Dongzhao Palace, and the opportunities for them to meet became less and less.

Liusu was still waiting for him, but he didn't wait for him until his mother was seriously ill and died. She finally decided to leave the Qin family to travel in the rivers and lakes, but she still couldn't get rid of him in the three years of traveling—the people's trust and admiration for him made him follow.

But he doesn't have her in all his stories, and he doesn't have her in every story.

Thinking of this, Qin Liusu, who was lying down, had already burst into tears unconsciously.

The moonlight shone on her face, showing off her pretty face, "Chu Juechen, you bastard!" You don't remember anything! Did you say you were going to marry back then? ”

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door. Liusu hurriedly wiped the tears from his face, thinking to himself, why is there something wrong with thrush so late?

Qin Liusu said to the door, "Come in!" "But after waiting for a long time, no one came in.

Out of the vigilance of a martial arts practitioner, Qin Liusu quickly turned over and got out of bed, and reached the door with light skills. When she was sure that there was no one else's breath by the door, she opened the door, and when she opened it, she saw that the thrush was still asleep, and there was a letter on the threshold.
