Where is the sunset township, and the Yanbo River makes people worried.

The fleet went all the way south from the Grand Canal, along the water, and more than a month passed in a blink of an eye, the air slowly warmed up, standing on the deck, the scenery on both sides of the bank was slowly dyed with verdant green.

It's almost south.

And in the past month or so, my body has also improved a lot, although there are still some repeated coughs and low-grade fevers, but the cold has completely disappeared, Pei Yuanfeng will send someone to bring me medicine every day, and most of the meals used are mainly warm supplements, so that the rest for more than a month, although it is on the way, it is better than staying quietly in the cold palace for half a year.

It's just that what worries Shui Xiu every day is that when the twilight is about to end, I will stubbornly stand by the window and watch the sunset.

The wind in the south is not urgent, and the wind also carries a warm breath, not as cold as the wind in the north, which is unbearable, Shui Xiu came over with a piece of clothing and draped it on my shoulders, and suddenly felt warm, and she also nagged: "Girl, don't stand for too long, watch your body." ”

"It's fine."

I still stood on the railing, the wind blew my hair and stroked my face, bringing a burst of ****, I gently stretched out my hand to brush it away, and I saw Shui Xiu kneeling down behind me: "Slave maid to meet the prince." ”

As soon as he turned around, he saw Pei Yuanfeng standing behind him.

He was wearing a cyan robe, his ink-colored belt was tightly tied, his shoulders were as broad as a mountain, his waist was tough, his sturdy figure looked more and more erect in the setting sun, and his dark face looked at me with a look of concern.

I smiled and bowed to him: "Lord." ”

He looked at me and smiled at him, he seemed to be a little stunned, standing two or three steps away from me and then stopped coming, and said with concern: "Why are you standing here blowing the wind again?" ”

He would come to see me every day, and when he needed to avoid taboos in the palace in the past, he would break into the cold palace to save me, but when he arrived on the boat, he was a little more restrained, and he didn't dare to touch me lightly, as if he was afraid of breaking me.

I think, no matter how many people he kills, no matter how much he makes great contributions, he is still a small martial artist after all.

That reckless and frank kid who will ignore a qiē for me.

"It's okay, I'm just looking at the scenery." I smiled, turned my head to look at the vast smoke in front of me, the sunset sprinkled thousands of golden light, the river under my feet was also plated with a layer of gold, people seemed to move forward in a golden light, I sighed softly: "What a beautiful scenery." ”

Pei Yuanfeng looked at me in a daze, and when he was illuminated by the sunset, his face was also a little red, and said, "Yes, it's so beautiful." ”

I glanced back at him, and he smiled again: "It's almost Jiangnan." ”

"Everyone says that Jiangnan is good, and tourists are only old in Jiangnan." I read it softly, recalling that when I first read this poem, I was in a trance thinking about how beautiful Jiangnan can be, so that people are willing to die of old age, and before going south, facing swords and swords, danger is everywhere, but I have also seen the snow in the south of the Yangtze River, and the lights in the night.

And also...... Those unforgettable, amorous eyes.

"Tourists are only old in the south of the Yangtze River?" Pei Yuanfeng muttered and repeated this poem, and suddenly smiled: "I don't want to die of old age in Jiangnan." ”

I looked up at him, "Why?" ”

"People like me, if they want to die, they must be shrouded in horse leather, blood splashed on the battlefield, and die of old age in Jiangnan, I am afraid that it is the most unproductive way to die in the mouths of those brothers in Xidatong."

His young face is full of fortitude, and although his eyes are facing the sunset, they are full of vigorous vitality and hope.

This is the power of life, which is only available at a young age.

I looked at him with a faint envy in my heart, lowered my head and muttered, "But I want to." ”

When Pei Yuanfeng heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then immediately reacted to something, and the look on his face immediately sank: "Qingying!" ”

Seeing that he was a little anxious, I hurriedly laughed and said, "Just kidding." ”

He seemed to have palpitations, and looked at me a few more times, but saw that I was just focusing on the scenery, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and asked again, "Have you drunk the medicine?" ”

I laughed and said, "You ask every day, I drink every day." It's just that the medicine is too bitter, and it tastes bitter in my mouth. ”

"I knew you were going to say that."

He walked over with a smile and reached out to me with the hand hidden behind his back: "That's why I brought you this." ”

When I looked closely, it was a stack of paper bags, carrying a heavy look with hemp rope, and the words Wanbao Zhai on it, I immediately understood when I saw it: "Dim Ast? Where did it come from? ”

"Hmm." He smiled and nodded, and said: "Last night, the ship docked in Rencheng to replenish supplies, you have already slept, and I didn't wake you up, so I went ashore by myself, fortunately, there is a semicolon of Wanbao Zhai near the pier, I know that the dim sum there is done well, and you always say that the medicine is bitter, so I bought it for you." ”

After speaking, it was sent to me like a treasure: "Taste it!" ”

I looked down at the bag of snacks, and then looked up at him, and the bitterness on the tip of my tongue that I couldn't swallow came back to me.

Wanbao Zhai, I haven't forgotten jì, the dim sum in there is really good, so I will remember to bring him back to the capital, but that time, he was poisoned and almost died, until now, I still remember him lying on the bed, crying tears, with his back to me and refusing to speak.

Looking at me, he seemed to feel something, and said cautiously: "Qingying ......"

I looked up at him.

He looked me in the eye and said solemnly, "What is past is gone." ”

"......" I looked at him silently for a while, smiled faintly, and when he saw me smiling, he was also relieved, and handed the dim sum bag to Shui Xiu: "Go and clean it up, bring it to everyone to taste." ”

"Yes."

When the water show went down, the two of them didn't say anything for a while, and he still stood in front of me, quietly accompanying me.

I looked at the endless river and said softly, "Lord Wang." ”

"What?"

"......" I actually have doubts in my heart after all, suppressed these days, the closer to Yangzhou, the more uneasy the feeling becomes, until what he just said, I finally couldn't help asking: "What are you going south this time, what are you going to do this time?" ”

His brows furrowed, and he turned his head to look at me: "The emperor's southern tour is to investigate the people's feelings in the south." ”

"It's not." I shook my head slightly.

If it was really to inspect the people's feelings, several cities along the way should be docked into the city, but Pei Yuanhao just stopped the ship to replenish, and he didn't even get on the boat and kowtow, especially when he docked in Rencheng last night, he didn't even know the people on the boat, so it can be seen that he didn't want to investigate the people's feelings along the way at all.

His goal is Yangzhou!

That's why it's going day and night, and the waterways for more than two months have been reduced by almost one-third, and Yangzhou is already close at hand.

I looked up at Pei Yuanfeng: "Moreover, the emperor could have gone south very early, but he has been waiting, I thought he was waiting for the victory in the northwest, but when you came back, I knew that he was waiting for you." ”

"......" Pei Yuanfeng didn't speak, lowered his eyes.

"What the hell are you going to do going south? Can you sue me? ”

"......" He was silent for a long time, and then slowly raised his head to look at me: "Qingying." ”

"Huh?"

"Do you still care about him?"

As soon as this sentence came out, I was stunned for a moment.

“……”

"You're still thinking about him and working hard for him, aren't you?"

“……”

"He did that to you, so that you- you still, can't you forget him?"

Shui Xiu originally walked in with a plate of pastries, but as soon as she walked to the door and heard this sentence, she was stunned for a moment, looked up at me and Pei Yuanfeng, she cautiously walked in and put the plate on the table next to me, and then turned around and walked out.

The two men faced each other and fell silent.

This sentence, no one has asked me so clearly, but in my heart, it is not that I have not asked myself like this, although every time I ask, my heart stings once, but to know the real truth, it is often in the deepest pain to wake up.

At this time, as if I was being stabbed again, I couldn't hold back and coughed.

"Cough cough cough cough ......" The cough was a little unstoppable, and there was a labor pain in my chest, Pei Yuanfeng saw that my face changed, and hurriedly stepped forward to help me: "Qingying!" ”

I waved my hand and wanted to say something, but I couldn't say it, I couldn't straighten my waist with a cough, Pei Yuanfeng was anxious all of a sudden, picked me up and walked to the side of the bench, and put it down gently, I tried my best to suppress the pain in my chest, biting my lower lip to death, Pei Yuanfeng squatted in front of me and held both sides of the chair with both hands, looking at me anxiously: "Qingying!" Qingying, are you okay, I won't ask! ”

Finally calmed down, the flush on my face receded, but it became even paler, and he was so anxious that his forehead was sweating, and he looked at me cautiously.

I gasped a few times, looked him in the eye, and said, "If I said no, would you believe it?" ”

He froze, staring at me with wide eyes.

"Would you believe me if I said that all I care about is what you are going south?"

He looked at me for a while before he said, "You say, I will believe it!" ”

I laughed, and the sun finally set, and the last rays of blood-colored sunlight were withdrawn from my eyes, and for a moment the heavens and the earth fell into a quiet darkness.

Seeing that there was no light in my eyes, his expression also darkened, and after a long silence, he said cautiously: "Qingying, I-I don't mean to force you to do anything, if you really are-I don't know what to do, but, but- I don't want to see you hurt again. ”

I looked down at him.

"This time you go south, you don't care about anything, okay?"

I frowned slightly, and the slight uneasiness in my heart became even worse, as if it was slowly becoming real.

"I don't want to see you hurt again."

“…… What are you going to do when you go south? ”
