The night was already deep, and in the gloomy blackness, a bright moon was in the sky, but under the cover of large dark clouds, only a very shallow and shallow gap was exposed, and there was no moonlight, as if the whole world had entered the darkness for no reason.

Nowadays, although it has entered winter, the weather is quite pleasant, and the bright stars, like a stroke of genius, are dotted in the depths of the vast Milky Way, which is dizzying; Outside the capital, the continuous mountains, the snow has not melted all year round, and it looks different shades, just like a Danqing painting scroll with black and white ink marks, and like the black and white two sons on the chessboard.

The fierce cold wind rises in the sky; The cold wind swept thousands of miles.

The "Qin Palace", which is known for its solemnity, solemnity and fierce killing, is like a thousand-year-old temple, standing in the vicissitudes of the sea and accepting the baptism of wind, frost, rain and snow; The wind from outside the sky brought up scattered broken ice, blowing through the corner of the Qin Palace, only to hear that the pale blue glazed tiles on the eaves of the palace were vibrated under the roar of the wind and frost......

Qin Wangfu, outside the Wufeng Building.

The hazy night, against the backdrop of a faint crescent moon, adds a bit of weirdness to this huge prince's mansion; Surrounded by a bleak black cloud, it was covered with a layer of blurred color.

At this moment, I saw a chic man in white, wearing a long black cloak, carrying a pot of freshly brewed "plum wine", and carrying a black and heavy ancient sword, walking slowly on the quiet corridor, and his steps seemed so heavy; Under the night, the man's expression showed unprecedented loneliness and loneliness, compared to the beautiful face of the wind god, at the moment, his cold face, empty eyes, resolute outline, and a dustless white clothes seemed to be pouring out the sadness in his heart.

The wind, blowing from the ears, pulled the long cloak on the man's shoulders, hunting and rolling; I don't know when Xiao Changling started to be alone, dragging Xiao Ran's figure, carrying a pot of wine and a sword, through the secluded corridor, to the small stone table under the corridor, and slowly sat down.

He tilted his head slightly, staring at the silent night sky, letting the night breeze pass through his cheeks, leaving knife marks on his face; The endless darkness reflected in Xiao Changling's eyes, there was no light, and there was no brightness, just like the state of mind of the white-clothed King Qin at the moment, lonely, helpless, and gloomy; It's really hard to imagine that the man in front of him is the one who holds 400,000 Jingbei troops, once shocked Kyushu, led the army to sweep away Southern Chu, stepped on the grassland, and killed Xiao Changling, the king of Qin, who was far away from the desert north...... Now he is not a King of Qin, a hero, or a commander, but a sad man who has nothing.

On the small stone table, there are fine wine vessels on display: a pot of old wine, a silver cup, and an ancient long sword, also with a sword blade and scabbard, resting on the table; The wine is plum wine, the sword is the sword of King Qin, and the sword number is "Chengying", Xiao Changling lowered his head, lifted the wine jug, and poured a glass of clear plum wine.

Silver cups, light wine.

Wine into the bowels.

Xiao Changling put down the wine glass, the spicy plum wine brought a hot breath, and it was fiercely competing with the depressed air that had been accumulated in his chest for a long time; Suddenly, Xiao Changling only felt that his whole body was getting lighter and lighter, as if he was surrounded by this heavy drunkenness, and as if he was occupied by the fog of wine.

The wind in the night was soft and cold, accompanied by the night breeze blowing softly, rolling up the fragrance of flowers in the sky, crashing into the strong wine, Xiao Changling felt even more miserable, almost drowsy.

Since returning home from the palace banquet, Xiao Changling has been in a low mood and has been in a bad mood all day long; Tonight, he was even more distraught, and he could only rely on wine to alleviate the sorrow in his heart. Therefore, he has been drinking, although he is not very anxious, but he can't stand his continuous drinking, and soon half a pot of wine is in his stomach, he also faintly has a slight drunkenness, the whole person is drunk and confused, as if he is in an ethereal fantasy.

At this moment, Xiao Changling stood up on a whim, with the slight spicy wine, holding the "Chengying" in his hand, and strode to the center of the courtyard, standing freely; A man dressed in white, wearing a black and red cloak, holding a black and heavy sword, concentrating, his eyes were silent, drunk, hazy, and the depression of many days was also gone; In a trance, the King of Great Zhou Qin, the lord of Jingbei, who was once high-spirited, flying and jumping, crisscrossing the battlefield, and fighting with the Southern Chu army for five days and five nights in the princess's tomb, seemed to be back again.

"Uhhh

A vibrating sound like a dragon's exuberance, from the quaint scabbard, broke through the air, piercing the silence of the night and tearing the winter slaughter.

But when he heard the sound of the dragon's groan, Xiao Changling's face was cold, his left arm shook suddenly, and the black and heavy ancient sword scabbard was gently ripped off by a strong and powerful hand, and the shadow came out of the sheath in the air; The sword body was as clear as snow, wrapped in a ghostly cold light, like a bright lightning, illuminating the dark night sky.

The ancient sword is unsheathed!

It must be admitted that the sword of His Royal Highness King Qin is indeed extremely sharp, "the four famous swords in the world", Chengying, Lulu, Feishuang, Tai'a, and Chengying of Xiao Changling, King of Qin, ranks first and dominates; If you talk about the sharpness of the blade, Chengying can blow hair and break hair, cut gold and jade in an instant, far better than the other three famous swords, even if it is the "Lulu Jade Sword" used by the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it is not as good as one ten-thousandth of Chengying, not to mention other swords.

I saw that Xiao Changling held the sword in his backhand, gently pulled a sword flower, and listened to the sound of "Zheng", the long sword buzzed and roared, and the sharp sword qi, like a white snake spitting out the core, poured out along the tip of the sword, and drew a crescent moon in mid-air; The ancient sword of King Qin, held in Xiao Changling's hand, with a cold sword intent, just like this, the sword was full of wind and danced a set of elegant swordsmanship......

As the commander of 400,000 iron cavalry, Xiao Changling has been a battle-hardened general since he was young, and he is good at cutting off generals and holding flags in millions of troops, tackling key problems and capturing villages, coupled with the martial arts talent of the King of Qin himself, he is already a veritable "the strongest man in the world" at the age of less than twenty.

Xiao Changling's swordsmanship, born from the Tianquan Sword Sect, is like a breeze and the moon, beautiful and elegant, at this moment in a slightly drunken state, the feet are slightly light, which can better reflect the chic swordsmanship, shooting out the sword light as bright as the stars, the sword dance is flying, and gradually merging into a shallow river bay; As far as the shadow of the sword reached, a large piece of residual snow was rolled up, sometimes reaching the sky, sometimes falling to the ground, as if the moonlight was sprinkled on the mortal dust, and like the moment at the turn of day and night, blooming with instant brilliance.

Dancing the sword to a hearty place, Xiao Changling's movements became more and more cloudy, and the bottom of his eyes became slightly flushed; He ripped off his cloak, the long sword was as cold as autumn water, and the rhyme of the sword fluttered back and forth in his ears, and his mouth also sang softly with the fierce sword wind.

"Bright White Horse,

In the Valley of the Void.

A bunch of raw,

His people are like jade. ”

The song is sad.

Bang Dang!

Jin Tie touched the ground, the sword shadow dispersed, and the shadow fell off from his hand, making a crisp sound.

Xiao Changling's eyes were slightly closed.

Suddenly, two lines of clear tears oozed from the corners of Xiao Changling's eyes, and his eyes were shrouded in tears, dense, sudden, and blurred; After a long while, he slowly opened his eyes, and with a slightly sad gaze, he quietly cast himself into the distance, and at this moment, he seemed to see that beautiful figure, the only love of his life, was slowly walking towards him, and it was getting closer and closer, closer and closer.

The heart-rending pain and the deep feelings in the bone marrow made Xiao Changling feel depressed, and he only felt that his chest was stuffy, as if there were thousands of catties of boulders, pressing on the body of the king of Jingbei, making him breathless; At this time, Xiao Changling, like a poor drowning man, wanted to reach out and grab the rattan on the shore, but he couldn't catch it, and even his consciousness was intermittently low, and his whole body had fallen backwards softly.

Xiao Changling lay flat on the cold ground, facing the sky on his back, looking at the black and oppressive night sky, dressed in white, stained with wet snow, and letting the cold invade his muscles and bones.

"Wan'er ......"

His eyes were blank, and in his black and white pupils was dead silence; Xiao Changling stared at the sky in a daze, never got up from the ground, and his dusty thoughts, which had been sealed for a long time, had already unconsciously turned into a wisp of breeze, slowly drifting away from the nine heavens, floating to the youth of more than ten years ago, returning to the memory that was gone forever, that ...... What does it mean for her, for herself? Is it love, or hate?

……

Eleven years ago.

Yongxing six years, spring.

It was a sunny early spring season, full of spring colors, birds and flowers.

The spring mood in the capital, in other words, is the spring in the Great Zhou Palace, compared with other places, there is a little more solemnity of spring, but a little less joy of spring; After all, even if the cold comes and the summer comes, the spring goes to the autumn, everything in the world is in the wind and rain of the four seasons of the year, and the only thing that remains unchanged is the supreme authority that is regarded by the men of the world.

This year is the sixth year of the reign of Emperor Xuan Xiao Longxian.

At the beginning of the new dynasty, the Son of Heaven worked hard to govern the country, and implemented the "Yongxing New Deal" of enriching the country and strengthening the army, and was committed to opening the layout before the war of destroying the country. Although at this time, the world had not yet been unified, and the two countries of Southern Chu and Western Yan were still splitting the territory and fighting against the Great Zhou; However, after the two generations of emperors of Emperor Wen and Emperor Jing, the Northern Zhou army launched several fierce offensives against Southern Chu and Western Yan, as well as the encroachment strategy set by the Great Zhou Temple against Chu and Yan, between the three kingdoms, the offensive and defensive trends are different, from the initial two strong and one weak, to the later three equal, and now the Great Sunday is getting stronger and stronger, sweeping Chu Yan to dominate the world, there is no suspense.

The bright spring light shines through the high palace wall and falls on the young willows with mottled shadows, casting a graceful shadow; Nowadays, the harsh winter has just passed, the spring cold is steep, the thin sunlight, from the blue sky through the clouds, look up, you can clearly see, the blue bricks and tiles of the imperial city palace, under the reflection of a spring color, flashing a crystal clear luster, like the white snow in early winter.

"Squeak-"

With a loud sound of the door shaft turning, the latch was slowly lowered, and the tall vermilion palace door opened on all sides from behind the city wall, and the busy day began; No one knows when the palace gate closes again, when it will be, dusk? Or late at night?

In March, Shangjing, the capital of the Great Zhou Empire, is now immersed in the vitality of spring, and everything is reviving and thriving; Five miles away from Shangjing, a crystal clear river, the water flow is gentle, flowing through the outside of the city, and has been flowing to the "Qingliang Mountain Villa" not far away, like a beautiful jade belt, surrounding the foot of the mountains, calm and waveless.

The mountain is "Qingliang Mountain".

The river is the "Jade Belt River".

Today is the Shangsi Festival, only to see the two banks of the Yudai River, the flow of people is crowded, gathering countless young men and girls who come here to go green, it is particularly lively; After a while, the people who went to the riverside party gradually increased, there were young girls who were pregnant with spring, there were wives who thought of their husbands, and there were also newlywed people, they all laughed and laughed, wandering between the mountains and rivers, the women were full of songs, throwing pots and shooting pills, and the men were singing and chanting, and they were happily enjoying the joy of the festival......

The river is a long trickle.

As far as the eye can see, on both sides of the Yudai River, is a large green meadow, and the comfortable new green, just one glance makes people forget to return; Moreover, it is the time of spring when the flowers are blooming, the flowers are vying for beauty, the sound of birdsong is pleasant and beautiful, and even the refreshing fragrance of flowers that blends into the air is gradually diffused at this moment, as if it will make people intoxicated.

The girl's crisp laughter rang like gusts of wind chimes and spread thousands of miles away.

At the same time, under a flower tree not far away, Chunlan was gorgeous, fragrant, dressed in white and riding independently, quietly staring at the group of beautiful girls, the beautiful shadows with their own spring colors, ice posture and jade bones, hair and red makeup, as if coming out of the picture scroll, came into his eyes, making him inevitably lose his mind for a while.

The man on the horse, dressed in white and snowy, graceful, dignified figure, handsome demeanor, with a white robe of proud snow and frost, looks so elegant, the face is like a crown of jade, full of the feeling of the breeze of the moon, a pair of shining bright eyes, under the backdrop of the two heroic sword eyebrows, released an unparalleled light, and under his high nose, a warm smile of the spring breeze appeared on his face, more and more showing the person's jade tree in the wind...... is the so-called "strange man in the world", if these five words are put on this man in white, based on his appearance and bearing, he is absolutely deserved!

He is Xiao Changling, the king of Qin eleven years ago. It's just that Xiao Changling at that time was not the highness of the King of Qin who would be famous in the future, holding a division of 400,000 tigers and wolves, and commanding the world; At that time, he was just a young general who was only 16 years old at the time, and had not yet faded his chivalrous spirit, but he had already made a name for himself in the army.

As Emperor Xuan's favorite second prince, Xiao Changling joined the army at a young age, entered the military camp at the age of ten, was named "King of Rencheng County" at the age of eleven, went to the battlefield at the age of twelve, took charge of himself at the age of fifteen, personally led seven hundred "Tiefutu", swayed out of the fortress for three thousand miles, annihilated three thousand barbarian horsemen, and won the first victory since his horse career; Now, Xiao Changling, who was 16 years old at the time, is already the general of Zhenbei who commanded 70,000 soldiers in the Beida Battalion and was in charge of military affairs in Youzhou.

Sixteen years old, in his prime, full of spirit, for Xiao Changling, it is a good time for a man to make contributions and serve the country; Therefore, at this time, Xiao Changling, from his face, could not see a trace of cold murderous aura, nor could he see a trace of coldness that was not angry and arrogant, and the young general's own youthful spirit was all displayed on his bright expression at this moment.

Under the flower tree, Xiao Changling rode on a horse, with thick black hair, a snow-white hairband, black and white eyes, clear and bright, revealing a sixteen-year-old vitality; And on that handsome face that is as white as jade, he always has a smile like a spring light, and he looks radiant, where is the commander of the Peking University Battalion who commanded 70,000 soldiers, and he is clearly a reckless young man.

In this early spring season when the apricot blossoms are in full bloom, a group of young and moving girls, wearing all kinds of dresses, with delicate hairpins between the clouds and temples, through the swaying leaf shadows, leaving a looming figure, just like a breeze, broke into the heart of the young prince.

Xiao Changling saw that this group of flower-like beauties was holding an exciting crushing pill competition at this moment, they were divided into two different teams, you come and go, and they don't let each other go; On the field, the girls are heroic, waving the clubs in their hands, and with their outstanding skills, they accurately hit the ball into the hole.

"What a beautiful time." Xiao Changling narrowed his eyes slightly, and couldn't help but sigh softly.

Suddenly, at this moment, Xiao Changling's gaze unconsciously fell on a woman; What kind of woman is that? Or, what kind of peerless beauty can make this young star who has risen to prominence before reaching the weak crown, and is unique and invincible among the younger generation, can't stop thinking about it?

I saw that the woman in front of her, although she was not tall, was very slender, especially when she was wearing a white skirt with flowing clouds, and the skirt was embroidered with a few shallow rose patterns, which set off her already slender figure, with silky long hair, a loose and beautiful hair bun, with a perilla jade hairpin inserted on it, compared with the women around her who were full of flowers, it looked a little different.

Perhaps it is because of the lack of powder that her beautiful and gentle temperament is displayed at a glance, especially her slender waist, round breasts, and charming demeanor, which more and more show the curling and gentle grace of a young girl; Her lips contain dandew, her delicate face is slightly powdered, like a hibiscus out of water, and under the two curved willow eyebrows, there is a pair of peach blossom eyes with affection, like a pearl, and no one can resist those charming eyes.

Obviously, although Xiao Changling is far away, he has been completely attracted by the woman's appearance, temperament and style, this is the first time in his life that he has been tempted by a woman, and it is also the first time he knows what love is.

At this moment, the girl bent down slightly, gently pinching the club with both hands, and the spring breeze blew, blowing her flowing green silk; I saw that she waved the club lightly, and the ball was knocked out, and after crossing a huge arc in the air, it fell into the hole impartially, which immediately amazed everyone.

"Wan'er is so good!"

"Miss Four's skills are good again."

Xie Wanxin's good hand made him fight for his life on the battlefield when he was young, with only seven hundred horsemen, he dared to go deep into the enemy's territory, slaughtering three thousand iron horsemen of Rouran, and at the age of sixteen, he worshiped the general of Zhenbei, and Xiao Changling, who was in charge of the Beida Battalion, was secretly surprised; He never expected that Xie Wanxin, who was born so beautifully and fragrantly, would have such superb ball skills, and the ball she hit really made her eyes shine.

Xiao Changling sat on his horse, turned his head to look at the guards beside him, and asked curiously.

"Whose girl is that?"

"Your Highness, she is Miss Wanxin, the fourth daughter-in-law of the Xie Situ family,——." The guard glanced at His Highness, then replied with a smile.

At that moment, Xiao Changling let out a soft "oh", and the love and fluctuations in his heart became more and more vibrant.

"The girl of the Xie family?!"

"Exactly, Your Highness."

"It turned out to be her." Xiao Changling muttered to himself, and the smile on his face became thicker and thicker.

He looked straight at Xie Wanxin, his icy and jade face, his breathing temperament, his heroic posture of swinging and beating pills, his smile and smile, and his every move, all of which were engraved on the tip of Xiao Changling's heart.

……

Here, he, to her, fell in love at first sight and never forgot it.

Here, she and him, at a glance, for thousands of years, and forever dwell in each other's hearts.

The love of a lifetime, the love and hatred of a lifetime, may start here.
