The bell tower is in the county town of Yunzhong, and according to legend, during the Warring States period, King Wuling of Zhao once ordered soldiers and horses here. It's just that the years have passed, and it has long been deserted, leaving only a dilapidated pavilion, standing there alone. Zhao land borders the Xiongnu, the land is vast and sparsely populated, and later when the city of Yunzhong was rebuilt, the bell tower was also encircled, and now there is only an old man guarding there. Zhang Yan gave him the usual money, so he went out to buy wine, leaving Zhang Yan with an empty bell tower.

After staying upstairs for a while, I saw the general platform where King Zhao Wuling had ordered troops, and then looked at the big bell that was now broken and rusty and covered with dust. Zhang Yan carried her skirt and went downstairs from the ladder at the back, and when she arrived on the ground, she was annoyed to find that the skirt was still stained with dust. The guards were too old to clean well, and gradually, half an inch of dust accumulated. When a person steps on it, the dust kicks up, and it is impossible to prevent it.

Anyway, it's already like this. It's better to ......

She simply put down her skirt and put her right hand on her eyes, the sky in the north has a peculiar blue color, wide and comfortable.

The slanting afternoon sun shone on the school field behind the building, which has now been covered by a large area of wild grass, and spring and summer are the time when there is enough rain in the clouds, because few people come, and gradually grow more than half a person tall.

Zhang Yan remembered that when she first came to Yunzhong, it was still before winter, and the whole place was full of white ice and snow, reckless and blue, and it was so quiet that people's hearts were solemn; Now it is spring and summer, and the grass is lush and green, stretching to the sky, occasionally blooming with small blue-purple flowers, full of vitality.

Spring and autumn, although it is a different scenery, but it is not moving.

On the south side of the school field, there is an old locust tree, which I don't know how many years it has grown, and the crown of the tree is dark green and dense, opening like an umbrella. Shadow day.

Zhang Yan walked over and was pleasantly surprised to find that on the thickest branch of the tree, I don't know who tied a swing when.

The rope of the swing looks very strong, and it has not been long to tie it, but after a period of sun and rain, the swing board is stained with dry mud and plaster, showing a mixed color.

She stood under the tree with a swing, remembering her girlhood days in Shinpei. Then. The plum is green and green hanging on the branches, the wind blows, and the smile is bright. With the freshness peculiar to a girl.

She burst into laughter and indulged herself on the swing.

If it was on an ordinary day, with her habit of loving cleanliness, she would not touch this windswept swing.

But now, what does it matter?

Anyway, her dress had already been soiled on the bell tower just now.

And she has a strong desire to be close to nature at the moment. I want to sing loudly, and let her indulge herself today, at least today, while waiting for that man.

When Liu Ying found the bell tower, the sun had just set. The sunset spreads out in the sky, and the grass in front of the bell tower has a little crimson color.

Turning the bell tower, I heard the girl's clear and beautiful singing voice. "There is a beautiful person, as graceful as Qingyang. Yanzi smiled skillfully and charmingly. ”

In the twilight, Lang Wei got off the horse, and his movements were neat. The rustling of footsteps was not noticeable in the silence of the bell tower. Liu Ying stepped on the school field alone, until she saw Song Wei, the slender figure of the girl sitting on the swing from a distance. The look settled down.

"Bosom friends know music, good for music. The mourning strings are subtle, and the breath is fragrant. ”

He walked through the knee-high weeds and walked in front of her.

"Liu Zheng is excited, and the palace is slandered. Heart-warming, beautiful and unforgettable. ”

Zhang Yan sat on the swing, raised her head, and was not surprised to see that it was him, and looked at him with a smile as she walked towards her.

The eyes of the two people met in the air, and a shallow smile came up, knowing each other.

"I'll wait here," Zhang Yan sat on the old swing, looking at the golden crow that was about to fall in the western sky, and the clouds were dyed into a red color by homeopathy, gorgeous and desolate, "I originally thought that I needed to sit here and wait until it was dark to see you coming, but I didn't expect you to come so early." ”

Liu Ying smiled, "After I saw that Jiang Duwei, I came out and asked people where you went." Qingkui said that you just came back from the east of the city, and you came to the bell tower again, so I came here. ”

Zhang Yan tilted her head slightly, looked into his eyes, and slashed across each other without a trace.

Regarding the Taishou Mansion in the east of the city and Meng Shu's intentions, the two have a tacit understanding with each other, and they each handle it according to their own methods and do not interfere with each other.

Liu Ying lowered her eyes and looked at her wife in front of her with a serious and appreciative gaze. She was wearing a snow-white brocade shirt today, with a moon-white ice skirt. Sitting on a dilapidated swing, his clothes were stained with a large amount of ash, but his expression was bright and cheerful, and it was difficult to hide his beauty, and the country was unparalleled.

"Today's Ah Yan, beautiful like a dream." He really praised it.

When Zhang Yan heard this, she turned her head and smiled slightly, "Am I your dream?"

"Nature." Liu Ying said, "If I can, I am willing to indulge in it for the rest of my life and never have to wake up." ”

"-Beidi is different from Chang'an, it's very cold outside the night, what swing are you swinging here. If you really like it, I'll give you a ride at home when you go back, and now it's better to go back. ”

Zhang Yan nodded and stretched her feet in front of him.

In the waiting just now, the evening wind was a little smoky, and Zhang Yan simply kicked off the silk shoes on her feet, and only swinged leisurely. Now she was wearing white socks on her outstretched feet, revealing a very small, delicate and beautiful shape, like a blooming nasturtium.

Liu Ying smiled, picked up a silk shoe scattered on the ground, squatted in front of her on one knee, held her ankle, and put on the silk shoe for her, with gentle and proper movements. Looking up and seeing her Wu Lingling's gaze, he wondered, "What's wrong?" ”

"Nothing." Zhang Yan replied.

Some long-ago memories suddenly came out of my mind, in the past, in my previous life, I once saw a saying: the man who is willing to accompany you when you go shopping, and put the socks you take off in his pocket, must be the one who loves you deeply.

She thought, this man who would squat down and put on my shoes for me must be the one who loves me deeply.

"Uncle,"

"Sometimes I think about myself, pampered and self-willed, with so many years by my side. You didn't do anything, why, but in the six months after I left Weiyang Palace, you suddenly changed your mind? ”

Even though it was not the first time that this question had been asked, in such an atmosphere, Liu Ying was still a little embarrassed, "It's not the first time I've answered you," he looked at the girl in front of him, knowing in his heart that this was about the time when Zhang Yan was going to have a showdown with himself after thinking about it. "Ah Yan has always been the best in my heart. I just, I thought we couldn't be together. But after you're gone. I realized that I couldn't bear to lose you in my life more than anyone else. ”

"Ah Yan, do you know?" He sighed slightly. "After you left, I missed it very much, one day I went to the Jiaofang Hall to spend the night, and I dreamed of you at night, quiet and happy. When I woke up, I thought. It's time for me to admit it. Ah Yan,......"

His voice hesitated slightly, "Have you thought about it?" ”

"Hmm." Zhang Yan nodded. "I have a stingy and troublesome personality, and I can't stand the man who covets me from other women. There was no way to do it before, so forget it. From now on, I will not allow any of them. ”

Liu Ying looked at her like a child she had raised. "Okay."

"You can hear me clearly, don't regret it later." Zhang Yan looked at him. His chin was raised slightly, and there was a hint of pride, "I know that there are still a lot of eight beauties in your Weiyang Palace, you can treat them well, but no, quasi, again, and, she, they, have, relation, tie, if you are reluctant to those warblers and swallows, you can turn around and leave now, I can live well without you." Definitely not a single tear. - If you still have the intention of enjoying the blessings of all people, you will die before you have this heart. ”

She said her request in one breath, but she was actually a little apprehensive. Liu Ying really has a love for herself between men and women, and now, she will no longer doubt it. But whether this relationship can be important enough for him to refuse other women, she is not very sure. But she still threw out her request without hesitation.

For her, no matter how much she loves someone, she also has a bottom line. In the past, although she had the name of husband and wife with him, but there was no husband and wife, even if she didn't have a husband and wife, even if she got it now, she could only uphold the principle that if she got it, she would get the best. If he answered, they were all happy. If you are embarrassed, you can just smile and say goodbye and keep the status quo.

"Yikes." She let out a soft cry, and her slender waist was taken into the man's arms.

Liu Ying's mood was peaceful and satisfied, and the corners of her lips couldn't help but curl up an arc, "I knew that you were a willful and jealous person." ”

"Ah Yan," he stood up, looked at the girl in front of him, and said, "Long before you, they were already in the Weiyang Palace." Therefore, although I am tired of the situation of concubines competing for favor in the harem, I still can't completely abandon them. However, the most important person in my heart is you. There will never be another woman who gives me so many joys and sorrows as you do. As long as you're by my side, I don't need another woman. He held the girl's slender and delicate hands, with a touch of longing and expectation between his eyebrows, "Ah Yan, you believe me, we will live well." In the future, when you have children, I will teach them myself and pamper them. I will pass on the position of emperor to my son, and we will all be together for the rest of our lives. ”

She felt that she should be shy. Because of his passionate love words, the expectations for the future life in the words, and the children who are far away or not far away. However, she was in a calm and peaceful mood at the moment, and she couldn't help but curl up the corners of her lips slightly, revealing the deep dimples on her cheeks.

"In the future, you are no longer allowed to ignore me for any reason, don't want me, and say what is good for me. What I want, I know in my own heart. Even if I really want to leave, I can leave myself, and I don't have to work with you Liu Dashan to arrange it after sale. ”

Liu Ying was stunned, and replied with a smile again, "Okay." ”

He let go of his wife in his arms and looked at her, "What else do you want?" ”

Zhang Yan was slightly stunned, "Why do you ask that?" ”

Liu Ying squinted at her with big phoenix eyes, "Didn't you ask for the third chapter of the law?" That's one chapter away, but there's a third chapter? With a faint teasing.

Zhang Yan snorted, "Chapter 3 owes first, and I'll tell you when I think about it, but," she bit her lip lightly and glared at Liu Ying, "I want to ask you something else." ”

"Do you really think I can't live alone outside?"

Liu Ying was stunned, suddenly laughed, and bent down with a smile, "It's been a long time, these days, are you angry with me for this?" ”

He held his wife's hand, "Ah Yan, the answer to this question is not important to me. He replied, waving his hand at his wife's slightly angry face, "because for me, I want you to be under my protection all your life, and not have to face the wind and rain alone." It's not a question of whether you're capable or not, but that I, as your former uncle and current husband, want to protect your mind. ”

"Ah Yan," he wanted to ask her, but his wife let go of the swing rope in her hand and jumped off the swing board without hesitation.

Liu Ying was taken aback, and hurriedly opened her arms, caught the girl steadily, took a step back, and then tightened her arms. Holding her tight is like hugging the heart that has gently settled in your chest.

"Uncle," Zhang Yan raised her face in her arms, revealing a bright face, "Uncle, give you one last chance, I'm stingy and troublesome, you want to return it now, is it too late?" ”

"You're already mine, how can I return it?" Liu Ying's disapproving voice came softly in the wind, "If I dare to return the goods, I'm afraid that the Queen Mother and your aunt won't spare me, right?" ”

"Ah Yan."

"Huh?"

"Don't call me uncle in the future."

"Giggle...... Good. ”

Zhang Yan lowered her head gently, and saw her hand tightly held in the palm of her hand by the man's wheat-colored skin, her apricot eyes blinked gently, and the corners of her lips curved slightly.

He and she still have a long way to go. But, she thought, she was sure, no matter how difficult the road ahead was, now, she didn't want to let go of his hand.

On this way forward, perhaps, their steps are different, but as long as the two people work together and slowly adjust their pace, they can always be in harmony.

Eye waves.

Did you see that? On a happy winter day that year, I held the outstretched hand of the young man who stepped down the stone steps.

Do you smell it? That year, Xinping's plums were fragrant, and the girls sang the love song of "Plum Blossoms", and their voices were clear and light:

"There are plums, in fact, seven Xi.

Ask me to be a gentleman, and I will be lucky.

There are plums, in fact, there are three.

Ask me to be a gentleman, and I will be in the future.

There are plums, and the basket is sinked.

Ask me to be a gentleman, and I will say it. ”

The plums on the trees have grown, and they are so full of branches that they are full of, and the summer wind brings their fragrance, which is already intoxicating. I waited for my loved one to say that to me, and waited for a long, long time until the plums on the tree began to fall, from seventy percent to thirty percent. Eventually, all the plums were gone, and they were packed in baskets, leaving only a single leaf, fluttering in the wind. I was so desperate that I began to weep bitterly, thinking that I could no longer wait for the one I loved, and that you would not come to me until the end of the day, and say to me,

"I love you."

——4,200 words, revised on May 11, 2011

Concentrate:

This chapter will be counted on the 11th.

"There is a beautiful person, as graceful as Qingyang. Yanzi smiled skillfully and charmingly. This poem is excerpted from one of the four poems of Cao Pi's "Good Deeds", and the following lines of Ah Yan's singing are from the same poem. It's strange that Cao Pi is the founding emperor of Wei, but these poems of women and beauties are very well written.

Well, I finally want to jump out and say a few words. When I wrote this chapter, I felt very relaxed, and I kept smiling. It may look a little numb. But I still can't help but want to say what a happy thing it is to be able to put on a stand in front of a person without scruples. I can put up a fight because I know that no matter what seems unreasonable to make, the other party will not be angry. If you can have such a cognition, it means that you will not have a sense of insecurity and insecurity. Then, no matter what kind of hurt there was in the past, you can laugh it off.
