Pei Yuanhao......

I have forgotten how long I stood in the doorway, the cold wind blowing on my back, drying all the cold sweat on my body, the cold seeping to my bones, spreading to the objects in my limbs, and even the blood in my whole body froze.

How could it be him? How could it be him?

Childe-The childe that Liu San'er said-I originally thought it would be Xichuan, but how could it be?

Thinking of this, my ears suddenly remembered what Liu San'er once said - in his twenties, he looks rich and noble, he is a decent person, he doesn't talk much, and he doesn't smile......

Maybe it's because of what the student of Xishan Academy told me, and Huang Tianba told me that the people from Xichuan may have come to Yangzhou, so I was full of thoughts, all of them were over there, but I also forgot about it, when I was in Yangzhou, Wei Ningyuan once told me that the emperor had plans to go south, but the itinerary was undecided.

I didn't expect that he had already gone south!

He's coming, he's coming!

And me, what should I do?

Just when my heart was in turmoil, and I was almost about to collapse, a gentle voice came to my ears.

"Lightness. Light? ”

I seemed to wake up from a dream, my eyes widened all of a sudden, Liu San'er gently held my hand, maybe the cold fingertips made him a little worried, and frowned slightly: "What's wrong?" ”

“…… No—it's fine. ”

When I said this, my voice was almost shattered, and the next moment it would tremble to shatter, Liu San'er looked at me again, and finally said: "This is the one I told you before, who saved me." ”

As he spoke, he turned his head to the other party and smiled: "I'm bothering tonight." ”

"Where."

A deep voice sounded in my ears, the familiar sound quality was magnetic, so that I heard as if I had been struck by a lightning point, and my whole body trembled slightly, and I felt him stand up, slowly walked in front of us, looked at Liu San'er and said, "Liu Gongzi-" Then, slowly turned his head and looked at me-

At this moment, my heart almost stopped.

……

"Ma'am."

This voice seemed to come from the distant sky, I could hardly believe my ears, I was stunned for a long time, and finally slowly, little by little, raised my head and looked at each other.

The time of separation is long, but in fact, it is only half a year; But if it is short, it seems like a lifetime, and I no longer think about that handsome face, nor do I think about the days when my skin was close to each other, and my ears and temples were grinding, and I have forgotten those days of torture, imprisonment and death.

However, he slowly came out of the ashes of time, and just like that, appeared in front of me.

Still the same as before, tall and handsome, a gorgeous black robe, faintly revealing the auspicious clouds and flying tigers embroidered with gold and silver threads, shining under the candlelight, but the eyes are getting deeper and darker, and under the high nose bridge, the thin lips are always pursed lightly, with a slightly raised arc, but no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a smile.

Madam.

I never thought that there would be this moment, let alone that the first thing he said to me was this.

He called me "Madam," and he wasn't surprised.

That is, he already knew, and - he wasn't going to debunk anything?

I looked at him, trembling with the possibility that the ice under my feet would suddenly crack in the next moment, and would be engulfed by the flames of hell, and gently bowed my head at him: "Childe." ”

After that, I couldn't hear anything when they said anything else, and I forgot whether I walked over by myself, or was pulled over by Liu San'er and entered the table, and the two of them were still talking.

"Don't call me Engong anymore, my surname is Yuan, double name, Yi Chu."

Yuan――Yi Chu――

Hearing the name made my fingers tremble even more.

Liu San'er said with a smile: "It's not easy to ask questions these days. Yuan Gongzi, this is clumsy Jing - light. ”

"Light...... Profit ......"

I lowered my head, my whole body numb and listened to the familiar, low voice slowly read out these two words, as if I was slowly groping for something from these two words, and after a long time, I said slowly: "Mrs. Zun's name is really special." ”

"Really?"

"The name of one of my old people is very similar."

Hearing this, my heart skipped a beat, and I raised my head sharply and looked at the person opposite.

He sat at the table, perhaps because the candle flame behind him was too much, but there was a faint layer of shadow on his face, the feeling of backlight made the face more and more angular, when he lowered his head to pour wine, his eyes were slightly lowered, but there was a faint light, flowing through the thick eyelashes.

After taking a sip of wine, his gaze fell on my arms again, and the swaddling swaddling clothes squirmed slightly: "This is—"

"Oh yes, Yuan Gongzi, forget to tell you, when I went back to find Qingqing this time, she had already given birth to a daughter, so we called her to leave her son."

"Li'er?"

"Yes, it's the name you took before, I discussed it with Qingqing, and we both like this name very much, so it's the nickname of the little girl."

"Really?" He paused for a moment and said, "It's rare, you all like this name." ”

Liu San'er smiled and said: "I and Qingqing, we only have such a daughter, and we will still count on her to be filial to us when we are old in the future. ”

……

This was the day when he said the child's name, he joked with me, thinking that we would be old in the future, with lost teeth, and a full head of gray hair sitting at the base of the wall basking in the sun, both of them laughing, but their hearts were full of joy and happiness.

But now, I was so frightened that I couldn't even breathe, and I looked at the person in front of me uneasily.

He-what will he say, what will he-what will he say?

He also looked at me, but his eyes seemed to be in a trance for a while, I don't know if he was looking at me, or looking at the swaddling clothes in his arms, just when I was extremely nervous, he raised his head and waved his hand: "Open the table." ”

The heart that was originally hanging fell down fiercely.

I wanted to step out with one foot, I originally thought it was hell fire, or it could be a cold pool, but I stepped on the most ordinary green grass, although there was no danger, but it made people's hearts more and more empty.

It's not that he forgot about me, if it was someone else, such an expression, I would definitely think that he had suffered some kind of change, forgot about the past, and forgot about me as a person, but he wouldn't, from the time he heard my name just now, I understood, but why did he do this, or was the sharp edge of the hurt hidden under this superficial calm?

At this moment, it is not an exaggeration to say that I am sitting on pins and needles.

There was incense burning in the room, and there was a stove in the distance, which was warm, but my palms were already dripping with cold sweat.

I don't know what he's going to do.

Just like now, I don't understand why he is sitting in front of me, as if he doesn't know me at all, without the slightest fluctuation in love, and Liu San'er is talking about current affairs in detail, and the two of them are still very speculative.

After taking a sip of wine, he slowly put down his wine glass and said, "According to this, Yang Ji is also innocent. ”

"Of course."

Liu San'er said: "Not to mention the harsh policies he did in Yangzhou, which made the people complain, just because he careless of people's lives, it should be thundered and struck." I don't know why the emperor sent such a bastard to Yangzhou as an official, it's-"

He spoke, gritting his teeth, but without saying any more, he raised his head and took another sip of wine.

My heart was about to jump out of my throat, but when I looked at the other side, that person's eyes were still calm and unwavering.

I gritted my teeth, gently tugged at Liu San'er's sleeve under the table, and said, "Don't worry about talking too much, Yuan-Yuan Gongzi is a knowledgeable person, and he wants to laugh at you." ”

When Liu San'er heard this, he was also stunned for a moment, and immediately blushed and smiled: "I forgot my form again." ”

After that, he raised his glass and said, "I'll punish myself." ”

The man on the other side also raised his glass, and I slowly lowered my head, but I seemed to feel his gaze for a moment, just faintly.

Then, the dishes begin.

He set up a banquet to entertain guests, and the dishes served were naturally some delicacies, but I couldn't eat anything, no matter what I picked up, it tasted like chewing wax in my mouth, and it was so difficult to swallow.

At this time, Liu San'er put down the chopsticks all of a sudden, inhaled straight in his mouth, and made a sizzling sound.

"What's wrong?"

I hurriedly turned my head to look at him, and saw that his cheeks were red, and his eyes were red, and he fanned his mouth with his hand. ”

I was stunned for a moment, glanced at him, and then looked at Liu San'er, he was really spicy.

Some of the dishes on the table are spicy, but I am used to eating spicy food and don't care, but Liu San'er has had a light diet since he was a child, and the spicy tears after eating a small pepper are about to come out.

"It's because I was negligent, and I forgot that Liu Gongzi can't eat spicy food when I was dishing."

"Don't, don't say that."

He waved his hand: "Come on, take Liu Gongzi down to gargle, don't hurt your throat." ”

As soon as the words fell, a long entourage came over, cautiously asked, Liu San'er was not easy to push, and he was really spicy, so he got up, patted my hand and signaled me to sit well, then turned around and followed the man out.

As soon as he left, it was just me and the man left in the room.

I also turned to look outside, even with my back to the person, it seemed that I could feel a hot light shining on my back, I don't know whether it was the eyes of the people, or the flickering candles all over the house, like my mood at the moment, uneasy, as if it would collapse in the next moment.

I gritted my teeth, got up and walked out, and said, "I'll go see him—"

As soon as he finished speaking, as soon as he reached the door, he heard a mellow voice behind him.

"If I'm not mistaken, you're from Shuzhong."

……

"Why is this spicy and makes you uncomfortable?"

……

It was as if there was a thunderclap overhead, and after the whole mind went blank, only a buzzing sound remained, and my back was numb, and I stood there stiffly, I don't know how long it took, and finally slowly turned around.
