Seven

Do An An still remember the old monk that your father and the emperor took you to see during your coming-of-age ceremony? ”

"Yes. He said at that time, I will die alone. My uncle also smashed the temple. An An remembers it very clearly. ”

"Although the emperor was angry and threw the cup, he didn't smash the temple because of a word, but the emperor was really angry at that time and almost killed the old monk."

"Almost? But how do I remember that the old monk died? ”

"It's true that he died, but he wasn't killed by the emperor, he didn't have much time, but in their eyes, the old monk was eaten up because of the leakage of heavenly secrets."

"That's it! And what about later. ”

"Later, the emperor calmed down, the old monk lived for a long time, and he had a little skill in his body, the emperor asked the old monk why he said this, and the old monk didn't say anything at first, and then the emperor promised to build a bigger temple for them, and promised a lot of things, and the old monk relented."

Speaking of this, Father stopped, looked at me with strange eyes, and looked into the distance again, that... It won't be the direction of the old monk's temple.

"What did the old monk say?"

"The old monk said a lot, but it was too long for me to forget it, and I only remember one of the sentences: old friends in the past will not become best friends today."

Won't old friends become the best friends we are today? What exactly does this phrase mean? What does it have to do with Achi? Could it be that he is talking about Azhi? Ah Zhi is the child of a subordinate of the former crown prince.

If the previous dynasty is the past, and the best friend is Ah Zhi, who is the old friend? Old friends... My mind was a mess, and I couldn't figure out what that meant.

"An'an, you have grown up, and your father is very happy to have your own ideas, but Daddy wants you to remember, no matter what, you have to remember who you are, if you are sad and sad one day, go home, father and mother have been waiting for you at home."

"Daddy."

I looked at my father, the person who was just shining was my hallucination, and the person in front of me was my real father.

Then, Father drank the tea that had been cold in the cup in one gulp, and then left. I looked at my father's back as he left, deep in thought, and couldn't extricate myself for a long time. When I came back to my senses, I realized that I was in tears.

I looked up at the sky, and the white clouds like fish scales gradually dissipated, and the blue of the sky was a little lighter. Only the bright moon, which looked like a silver platter, continued its voyage peacefully.

"Do you want to drink?"

I looked back and saw Su Ming holding a wine bottle. He was tilting his head to look at me.

"Why are you here?"

"Why are you crying?"

The two of us spoke in unison.

"Why are you here?" I asked again.

"Ah Zhi asked me to come, saying that you should need me very much now."

Su Ming sat down in the position of his father just now, looked at the things on the table, and frowned.

"This can't be what we do, right?"

"Yes, I brought it all back, and then I gave it all to my father, mother, and uncle. You just said that Ah Zhi asked you to come, what about Ah Zhi? ”

I didn't see Ah Zhi's figure, and then I thought about it, Ah Zhi may have been called by my mother. This couple is really, and I don't know when they will be able to finish talking.

I took the wine in Su Ming's hand, I thought I had lost my sense of taste, and I shouldn't feel anything, so I took a big sip, but I didn't expect to be choked. After coughing a few times, I found that my throat was spicy. The chest also feels spicy.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem."

"Hahaha."

I watched Su Ming laugh, forgetting the discomfort in my chest, and laughed along. Laughing and laughing, as if the unhappiness with Father was gone just now, the two of them always had this effect.

We looked at each other, then stopped laughing, and I looked at the moon in the sky, and my mind kept recalling the memories of the past. I took a sip of wine, and this time I didn't have a lot of preparation, and I felt pretty good.

"Su Ming."

I looked at the moon and suddenly had some questions, and I wanted to ask Su Ming. In fact, there are some questions that I have answers in my heart, but I just want to hear him tell me in person.

"What's wrong?"

"Why don't you go and see her!"

I didn't say the name, but I knew that Su Ming understood who I was talking about, Su Ming was silent for a long time, and took a big sip.

"Because I know that she doesn't have me in her heart, and she treats me well only because I ransomed her."

"She didn't lie to me, she told me from the beginning that she had someone in her heart, and I felt that as long as I was always by her side, she would have me in her heart one day."

"But when I saw that man that day, I realized that everything was a joke, and how beautiful his eyebrows and eyes were."

"She came to me because of guilt, not because she liked it, I didn't see her, because I was afraid that after I saw her, I would be desperate to snatch her back."

I paused, Su Ming didn't know that she had returned to Qinglou again, he just thought that the money was returned to him by the two of them, we were afraid that Su Ming would go to her again after knowing about it, and it would be unclear, so we kept hiding it from Su Ming.

My hands shook involuntarily. My heart trembled.

"Su Ming, she went back to the Qinglou, and the money was taken out by herself."

I didn't know how to face Su Ming, I was afraid to see any emotion in Su Ming's eyes, and I looked at the sky evasively.

"Actually, I know, but I see that you are worried about me, and you don't seem to want me to know, so I just pretend not to know."

I looked at Su Ming in surprise, and Su Ming quickly turned his head away, but I still saw tears on both sides of my nose. My heart felt like someone was grabbing me, and it was uncomfortable to twitch and throb.

Su Ming originally knew, so how uncomfortable he was at that time, he was still afraid that we would be worried and pretend not to know, pretending to be slowly relieved. Su Ming...

"I really envy you and Ah Chi sometimes."

I, I don't know what to say, I can only keep drinking, drinking non-stop.

It's getting late, but I can still see Su Ming's face clearly, the moon tonight is really big, very bright, so bright that no star dares to come out.

We have been drinking, and the wine that Su Ming took has already been drunk, and now it is the people in the house who can come over.

I'm already dizzy. But I was very sober.

"Han Zhao."

The name I blurted out made both of us wake up in an instant, and Su Ming looked at me in surprise.

I seemed to understand something, but the alcohol affected my thinking, and I couldn't figure it out, so I just asked.

"Ah Zhi said, Han Zhao didn't want to harm me."

I always paid attention to Su Ming's changes, and sure enough, Su Ming's eyes widened, and then he dodged again, his mouth wanted to say something, but he didn't say it, his hand held the wine glass tightly and shook it.

Really, really really.

I closed my eyes and tears welled up in my eyes.

"I've seen Han Zhao often come into contact with them before, and Han Zhao is practicing the kung fu of a killer secret guard."

"I heard them talking about the county lord of Anning that day, and they also said that the county lord of Anning had arrived in Suzhou, so I knew that Han Zhao was him..."

"I just thought about not letting them find out your identity, and then I killed all of them, leaving only Han Zhao, and when I talked to Han Zhao later, he also told me that he didn't tell them your identity, but I don't believe it..."

"Then, when there was a fight, you came, and I lied to you, saying that Han Zhao told them your identity. I..."

We turned out to be really friends. You really really thought of us as friends.

"He... Still alive? ”

Su Ming's cautious tone pierced my heart.

"Dead."

"Also, how could the person who went to pick you up not find out his identity, and if his identity was exposed, how could he survive."

"It's Ah Chi who did it. Because I..."

I didn't continue halfway through my words, Su Ming was puzzled.

"Because of you? What's wrong with you, Han Zhao won't really do it! We also let him go, he resented him because we didn't believe him, and then he did it to you, and was discovered by Achi. Isn't it. ”

The more Su Ming spoke, the more excited he became, and the more I listened, the more painful my heart became.

No, no, I was so uncomfortable that I couldn't speak, I could only shake my head, and I couldn't tell Su Ming about my poisoning, I was afraid that Su Ming was worried, he already had too many things to carry, and I didn't want me to be his responsibility again.

"You shake your head, it's not like this, what is it like, what happened to you, why did you do it, are you okay."

As he spoke, he checked on me. I can only let him check.

"I'm fine."

I spoke hoarsely, my voice already shady, probably because of the wine.

"It's okay, it's okay."

We sat down again, I leaned on him, didn't speak, drank slowly, there were so many things that happened today, I didn't seem to be able to accept it, my head was a little buzzing, it was very uncomfortable, I saw that everything was ghosted, I understood that I was drunk.

Su Ming has hangover medicine there, but I don't want to drink it, so let me get drunk once. Just let me get drunk once

I fainted in a daze. I felt that someone picked me up, it was the fragrance of medicine, it should be Ah Zhi, I fell asleep with peace of mind.
