The carriage was gurgling and slowly driving towards Huainan City.

The road has been bumpy for two or three days, and the days before being in prison were really difficult, Gu Yufu was really tired, she leaned on the carriage and fell asleep.

"Tsk... It's a lively place! ”

A sudden exclamation sounded in her ears, and Yu Fu opened her eyes, and she was seeing a girl like a peach and plum through the curtain, peering out of the window.

That was Yuan Xiang, who was originally Li Xiangru's maid, the man in Xuanyi that day, Zhao Yunqing, the commander of the right guard of the house, was afraid of the inconvenience on the road, so he stayed to take care of his daily life.

"Madam, won't you take a look?" Yuanxiang turned around and saw that Yufu had woken up, and a smile suddenly appeared on her face.

"Look, I'm a little tired, and... I'm not a lady...... cough cough ......" didn't say a word, Yu Fu coughed a little again, although Zhao Yunqing invited the best doctor in the city to treat her, but the illness went like a thread, and the root of the illness in prison was not so fast and thorough.

When Yuan Xiang saw it, she was busy patting her on the back: "Look at what you said, Lord Zhao said that you are a lady." ”

"Madam..."Yu Fu suddenly felt sad when she read these two words, her nose was sore, so she had to pretend to be sleepy, close her eyes and lean on the carriage to recuperate.

Yuan Xiang saw that she looked sick, the smile on her face faded, and she sat in the corner with a cold face.

The carriage traveled for a short while, and gradually heard the sound of human voices and the neighing of the horses, and Yufu got up.

When I lifted the curtain and looked out, I saw that I had arrived outside a high gate compound in the city.

In the middle of the palace, the plaque is hung high, and the four big characters of vigor and strength are written "Mingzun Zhongxing", and the handwriting is much newer than the brick carving eaves of the gatehouse. There is a tall and majestic stone lion on the left and right sides of the gate of the house, three beast-headed gates, and there are seven or eight guards in gorgeous clothes standing solemnly in front of the door, and they look like people in the right guard of the house. The main entrance is not open, and only the east and west corner doors are occasionally entered.

"Madame, it's time to get there. Please forgive Mrs. for her sins, the Lord has not been in Huainan recently, and it is inconvenient to swagger, so today I want to grieve Mrs. to enter the house through the west corner gate. Zhao Yunqing had dismounted in advance and whispered through the curtain.

After three days of companionship, no matter how Yu Fu denied it, he still insisted on calling her Mrs., and later, she had no choice but to let him go.

"I'm tired of Lord Zhao, I can do anything." Yu Fu sat up straight and replied softly.

Zhao Yunqing added two sentences respectfully as if she was afraid of her concerns: "Please rest assured, Madame, my subordinates have passed the book to the lord." The Lord has repeatedly told you that no matter what day you are found, all the courtesies will follow the wife, and on the day of the wedding, the door will be opened to welcome you. ”

The carriage entered the corner gate, walked along the alleyway for a long time, turned a corner, and finally stopped in front of a hanging flower door, and the man was nowhere to be seen except for Zhao Yunqing.

All the mothers-in-law and girls in the whole house were waiting here, Yuan Xiang muttered in her heart that there was a big battle, and she was about to open the curtain, and someone was already one step ahead of her.

Two more girls approached the hand that was going to help Yufu, Gu Yufu was a little embarrassed, she helped the car door and jumped down, and when everyone saw it, they knelt on the ground in a panic.

"This is ......" Yu Fu frowned and pulled them, but Zhao Yunqing hugged his fists and said: "Madam, this is their due courtesy, if you are not polite, it will be difficult for them to do it, if the Lord knows that someone has neglected you, it is not a joke." ”

Yu Fu frowned, and her heart became more and more worried.

I haven't seen him for ten years, and now he is in a high position, and his subordinates are so afraid of him, and they don't know what he has become.

In her memory, at the latest, he was just past the weak crown, when she was only fourteen years old, and the two lived in the neighboring yard, childhood sweethearts for many years. As soon as he had the opportunity to sneak out, he learned the cuckoo song through the courtyard gate and secretly asked her up.

At that time, he was in a youthful spirit, with a high ponytail, and there were always a few strands on his forehead, looking unruly. But whenever she is alone, if she looks at each other, the gaze of those starry eyes is like a clear spring, clear and gentle, and she can always see her shyly and cowardly resenting him.

The love opened early, the two of them were in the Qixi Festival before the separation, and they also had to hug secretly by the lake, their ears and temples grinding, he kissed her lips, causing her face to be hot, he swore a promise for a lifetime, and her heart beat fast in his arms.

At that time, the galaxy was like a dream, and everything was so beautiful, as if it was another world.

And now... It's been ten years.

Things are wrong, I didn't expect her to see him again, it was such a posture.

Yu Fu was invited to rest in an independent courtyard in the middle of the house, Yuan Xiang wanted to accompany him with a thick face, but was immediately stopped by Zhao Yunqing and sent to the outer courtyard on an errand.

After moving in, Gu Yufu always felt that this bedroom was full of an indescribable familiarity, and when she looked around, she opened the wardrobe only to find that it was actually all men's clothes. When the maidens told her that this was the regent's own bedroom, she was really taken aback, and said with a look of embarrassment that she would change places.

The girls knelt on the ground again, crying that this was specially arranged by the Lord in the letter, and there was no room for error, and that the lady should take care of them.

Yufu couldn't, so she reluctantly gave up.

The three or four girls were really busy for a while, arranging food for her, and boiling water for her to bathe.

The layout of the bedroom is graceful but elegant, hanging are all famous landscape calligraphy, only a painting at the head of the bed, but it is a portrait of a woman.

After sending everyone away, Yufu nested alone in the bathtub and stared at the painting in a daze.

It was on her fourteenth birthday, and Yang Shao painted it for her by himself.

There is a stain in the upper right corner of the painting, which Yu Fu remembered when he had just finished painting, she deliberately said that the painting was not good, and the two of them flipped over the tea bowl on the table while laughing and splashing the left.

A wisp of tea fragrance was just ordinary at the time.

Now goodbye, things are still the same, people are no more.

After wiping and changing clothes, Yufu sat down at the round table and poured herself a cup of tea. The tea is the best Shifeng Longjing, take a sip, fresh and mellow, and have a sweet aftertaste.

On her white and slender neck, there was a thin black chain, and under it fell a small pendant in the shape of a flame, neither gold nor silver, which was not eye-catching.

It was the object that Zhao Yunqing took out of his bag that day.

No one knew that it was a relic of his mother, which he had given her ten years ago when he was leaving.

He took it off his neck with his own hands, and solemnly put it on her neck, telling her not to forget it, and never to abandon it.

That year he was going to go to the border with his father, and the whole family was going to the west of Longxi, and he said that he would definitely come back, and when she turned sixteen, he would come back to propose marriage to her father, and the two would never have to be separated again.

But later, not long after he left, the world was full of war and gunsmoke, and the land of Shenzhou became a mess for the rest of the month, and she never saw him again.

If it's just a matter of separation, it's a big deal to wait for him for the rest of his life, and she is not afraid. Since ancient times, there has been affection and hatred, even if they end up forgetting each other, it may not be a kind of kindness. But providence makes people, my father has been loyal all his life, he has to embark on the road of rebellion, and now, it has become like this...

Yufu put down the teacup and gently held the object under her neck.

There is a secret in this lost token, which only they know.

He said that this is called iron flame, the outside is fine iron, and there is a mechanism inside, and according to the special steps to unscrew the delicate bracket, you can find another mystery.

Yu Fu held her breath, carefully according to the law, the iron flame petals opened in response, gradually revealing the bright light inside.

In the dark iron, a dazzling and enchanting ruby revealed a lustrous luster, like the flames of fire, and as bright as blood.

In the crevices under the gems, the fine white foam that had been hidden before was still there. She bit her lip and closed her eyes, her body shook almost imperceptibly, and she suddenly opened her eyes and poured the powder into the teacup, and before long, the powder merged with the translucent tea and disappeared.

She has arrived here, and Commander Zhao will not disgrace his mission, and he will not be affected again.

Yufu raised the teacup, remembering her father's roar and her brother's face, and her mother's grief-stricken cry......

There was a desperate smile on her white face, as desolate as a gardenia falling in the wind.

Life should live up to lovesickness, and death will not disgrace the lintel.

Unexpectedly, Fang escaped, and this preparation to prevent being betrayed and humiliated ended up in such an ironic fate.

"Madam, ma'am, the prince is back!"

The shrill cry of the girl outside the door broke the silence, and the cup of tea that had been brought to her lips shook suddenly, and half of it spilled.

Yu Fu was stunned suddenly, her heart was still beating wildly after putting down the porcelain cup, she had heard Zhao Yunqing say before that Yang Shao was supervising the battle on the front line of Muyang, she had calculated the time, and she never expected him to come back so quickly.

Followed by a dense hoe of horses' hooves and chaotic footsteps, one after another, the door opened with a loud whistle.

Gu Yufu rushed out, crossed the screen and saw Yang Shao standing by the door, his sword was unsolved, and he was still wearing a power suit, and it was gray.

As soon as he saw her, he couldn't move like a fool.

The simple bun can't help but break the hair, scattered in front of the forehead, the face is like a knife, the beard is undrawn, the skin under the eyes has a faint layer of black green, and the eyes are full of bloodshots.

His thin lips were half-open, and he opened and closed them for a long time without saying a word.

Zhao Yunqing followed five steps behind him, looking at the master's hand that had not shaken in front of thousands of troops, and he was pressing on the door and trembling. Sighing, Zhao Yunqing raised his chin and motioned for the people in the courtyard to slowly withdraw with him.

After a while, the world was pure, and there were only two people looking at each other in the small courtyard.

"Yu Fu ......", a man who is thirty-two years old and holds the world in his hands, actually shed tears with just this sentence.

"Brother Shao." Gu Yufu also choked uncontrollably, he lost weight, the wind and frost sword changed his face, and the beard he grew showed that time had passed.

In the past, there was always a casual smile on the corner of his mouth, and everyone looked at him with a little arrogant stare on him.

And now, he is more like a lone wolf who has been on the battlefield for a long time, standing there alone, and she is so distressed that she is suffocated for no reason.

Decade...... It's been a whole decade......

She was immersed in the old times and struggled, crossing her fingers, counting the three thousand six hundred days a day.

For a moment, she forgot that he had now turned his hands into clouds and turned his hands into rain, just like watching her beloved young man who had been away from home for many years, crossing thousands of mountains and rivers, and finally returning.

In three or two steps, Yufu was vigorously embraced into the arms of a dusty servant, and he hugged her so tightly that she almost had some pain on her body. She couldn't hold back her tears, letting them run down and wet the hem of his clothes.

He laughed like a fool, but the tears in his eyes rolled down and flowed non-stop, and all the attachment and infatuation of all these years choked into a whimper in his throat, like a child who had been lost for a long time, and finally found the home that haunted him.

“… Yufu... Why don't you come to me, how can you give up on me..."When Yang Shao spoke, his voice soaked in sour was already hoarse, "Do you know that I have been looking for you for ten years? You have all left from Hanyang, there is no news, I will find a place, I will find a country, I will find a country, do you know what kind of life I have lived in the past ten years, it is not like the world..."

"Brother Shao..."Gu Yufu's internal organs were burning, but he knew that he could no longer be like when he was a teenager, so he responded to his affection without reservation, but closed his eyes helplessly......
