"Xiaohan, when you are sixteen, I will marry you."

That year, he was only eight years old, had just escaped from Kyoto, fainted at the mouth of Miao Village, but fortunately was rescued by a girl from the Miao family who went out to pick herbs. Xiao Han, who was six years old at the time, was carrying a small basket up the mountain on his back, and was frightened by an older brother who suddenly fell at the entrance of their village and was dressed strangely.

"Okay." The girl had just sneaked out of the village to play, and the basket was still beside her. She was wearing a colorful skirt and silver jewelry, which made her little face red: "But you are from the Central Plains, I am from the Miao family, I am afraid that you will not see me again when you leave." The girl said as she hung a string of silver bells around her ankles.

"That's it...... Reasonable. The boy with picturesque eyebrows was dressed in a pale blue robe, with a jade pendant hanging from his left waist, and a small bun on his head sat side by side with the girl on the stone bridge. The girl swayed her legs, listening to the sound of the silver bells and looking up at the clouds, and the boy sat down and looked down at the rushing river at his feet, and suddenly a trace of melancholy rose.

"Hey, here......" Jiang Xin's Lady called the crow to catch the yellow croaker loudly, and saw the girl from a distance: "Xiaohan, I've escaped to play again." Have you finished harvesting the herbs? The voice drifted from the heart of the river. Xiao Han immediately got up like a little rabbit and shouted while jumping:

"Not yet! Uncle! You are not allowed to tell anyone ......"

"Okay, if you come and help me catch fish, I won't tell anyone." The old man shouted with laughter.

"Let's go," the girl tugged at the boy's shirt, "let's go and help the old man catch fish, otherwise she will sue my aunt and I will be scolded again." “

After speaking, before the boy could answer, she had already run out of the way:

"You hurry up ......"

The boy got up to look for her, but saw that she was already fiddling with the boat on the shore and turned his head to urge him.

The boy smiled wryly and shook his head.

"I have a love, sing and pull the princes to listen," the girl stood at the bow ......of the boat and sang looking at the green mountains and green waters. Although it is a child's voice and is still immature, that kind of singing voice can hardly hide its elegance, as if born in Jiangnan.

"Ladies and gentlemen, listen quietly." On the boat in front, the old man rocked the boat and looked back. Seeing that it was Xiaohan, he smiled at her kindly and motioned for her to continue singing. The girl also smiled, showing her white tiger teeth, and sang louder:

"The second spring in the world, half of the foot of Huishan. The spring water is clear, and the tea leaves are fragrant. Xishan, relative to Huiquan Mountain. At the foot of the mountain, on both halves, open a mud Buddha shop......"

In the blur, like a song of water and mountains, it goes around one bend after another. After the rain disappears, the outside of the ship is a thin roll, there are lush forests and bamboos on the right, and there are long bridges and short pavilions on the left. In the distance, there are several strings of strange cliffs and strange rocks and white waterfalls. The boy looked at the petite shadow that was compatible with the mountains and rivers, and he ......

Half in the bag.

The moon sets and the sky is white, the boat moves and the lotus opens, the water flows and the mountains are delighted, and the wind and clouds come.

It is as sweet as a pour of cinnamon wine.

As beautiful as a dream.

But it is more real than the moon in the mirror.

Because of her.

She has been in harmony with the soul of this landscape, without her, this mountain and river are magnificent, but there is no harmonious color. He thought.

"Xiaohan." He called her.

"Huh?" She replied back.

"As the saying goes, the grace of saving lives should be promised by body, I can meet you, and we are destined. Besides, my eldest husband is hard to chase after him when he speaks, and when you are ready, I will come back to marry you. "He stared at her really seriously.

"Hahaha......" The girl covered her mouth, but finally couldn't hold back, and the laughter like a silver bell echoed under the blue sky and white clouds. She laughed for a long time.

"You...... Don't believe me? The boy was in a hurry.

The girl stood at the bow of the boat with her waist crossed, turned her head and gave the boy a roll of the eyes:

"No, but I saved you, so you have to marry me with your body." The girl laughed and teased, and when she saw the boy's silence, she knew that he couldn't get over his face, so she was very intimate and planned to give him a step down:

"Oops, I'll ...... with you"

"Okay." Who would have thought, the boy pondered for a while, and nodded solemnly, "Then you are not allowed to break your promise, and you are not allowed to marry other men." “

The boy felt that he was very serious, he really didn't know why the girl looked at him so stunned with her mouth wide open, and then suddenly rolled around the boat with laughter, and jingled in silver......

Maybe she was happy for what he said. Who knows?

Later, he was gone.

Quietly walking.

He knew that there was no feast in the world that would never be dissolved, and there would be no sweet dream that would not wake up. He also knew that he would always go to the capital, because there was his duty there, and there were things that he should get back that belonged to him.

The Central Plains is his hometown.

He always didn't sleep well on the road, not because of the tiring travel, but because he was always worried that she would be too sad. In my sleep, I often dream back to Miao Village, and I hear her crying, which is very real. Then there was a little red face that saw her crying, her eyes were bloodshot, and she yelled at him aggrievedly:

"Cry blindly, cry blindly, cry blind and never have to see you again! Why don't you say goodbye? I hate you! “

At this time, he would suddenly wake up from the bed, and after waking up, there was a burst of palpitations and the desire to return to Miao Village.

But in the end, abominable reason will always prevail.

But he still often gets out of his mind.

returned to the palace to fight with the prince. Just after the beginning of winter, the spies came to report that the prince had slandered in front of the emperor that he had flouted the royal law and had embezzled and accepted bribes, and that he should be punished for his crimes, and that the emperor seemed to have let out his mouth and wanted to exile him. The doorman on the side was so anxious that he was in a hurry, with all kinds of strategies and advice, he only felt that it was too noisy, and shouted:

"Shut it all up!"

After being quiet, he stared at the blue and white porcelain tea set on the table:

That girl didn't cry blindly......

Her eyes were so beautiful, purple grapes, so vivid. It's a pity to cry blind.

It's so cold now, I don't know if the plum in Miao Village has bloomed, but is there a plum in Miao Village? I didn't seem to see it at the time, oops, stupid, stupid...... At that time, it was spring in March, where did the plum come from.

Xiaohan has changed into winter clothes now...... What does she look like in her winter coat? Do you tie yourself up like a fat dumpling? Hahaha......

And then, there is always a gentle smile on his face.

"Lord Wang?" An old guest who had been with him for a long time stepped forward and bowed, "I know that the prince misses his Miao relatives, and it is not impossible to bring her after you take power." “

"In power? After taking power, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty will give me a beautiful family who is right and conducive to the society of the country, and a woman who can't get on the stage from a foreign clan will feel like a concubine, and she will feel that her face is dull......"

Old Keqing was choked by his words and stopped talking.

He stopped looking at him and shouted to the other doormen, "Go back." “

The doormen were all stunned, looking at each other, and in the end no one moved.

"How can this work? The prince is still watching from the sidelines, and the situation should not be underestimated, my lord! “

"Please think twice, do you sit back and wait for the exile to let the prince watch a good show?"

"Yes, we won't go, we will swear allegiance to the king!"

The doormen chattered, but he said without arrogance:

"I told you to go, and I have my own decision on this matter."

The old guest also said: "The prince has always been resourceful, don't worry about salty radishes, hurry up." “

When there was no one left, he suddenly smiled at the old guest and added:

"Besides, I won't let her be a concubine at all."

The old guest was stunned for a moment before he came over, he was making up for what he had said. He could only sigh:

"The relationship between the two of you is broken. Those in power will gain and lose, and besides, the jokes of the children there are not true. ”

He was silent for a long, long time, and finally hummed.
