The most fulfilling love is always hard to happen.

Some people love too rationally, and some people love too firmly.

In the end, it may seem to be a complete one.

But deep down on both sides, I am afraid there will also be some regrets.

Qingran's heaven and earth are originally very large.

But for Xiao Zhong, the place left for her love is too small.

Qing Ran only loved his deceased lady deeply, persistent in love, and full of love interest.

When we first met.

Qing Ran is no longer a stupid boy who has just entered the rivers and lakes.

But Xiao Zhong's family didn't know anything about this infinite heaven and earth, the ghostly human heart.

Pretty women have always been a good match for heroes.

It's just that this kind of matching always starts with worship.

Xiao Zhong is no exception.

Although she is not a peerless city.

But it's also a beauty who is famous in the local area.

But she had only one vision.

Or rather, ambition.

That is to say either not to marry.

If you want to marry, you must marry a true hero who stands up to the sky, a real hero.

Browse the Hongzhou swordsman.

At that time, Qing Ran was not the most outstanding one.

However, because Qingran was born in Qingfu, he is the heir of Qingfu in the future.

With such a name hanging on it, anyone has to look up to it by three points.

Xiao Zhong has not decided on a family affair until he is twenty-five years old.

The people who used to talk about the matchmaker stepped on the threshold of her house by two inches.

However, there is not a single one that can be seen.

Xiao Zhong's parents were anxious.

An ultimatum was given to her.

In the first month of next year, it must be decided on a family matter.

Otherwise, even ordinary people like Xiao Zhong's will be left and right by the neighbors, poked in the backbone behind their backs.

However, Xiao Zhong disagreed.

She is unrelenting in her ambitions.

However, the older the good wine, the more fragrant it becomes.

Beauty is the opposite.

Since ancient times, beauties have been afraid of twilight and are not allowed to see white heads in the world.

She couldn't afford to wait.

If it really comes to the day of old age and decay, what can you do if you have no ambition?

So Xiao Zhong quietly ran out of the house late at night.

Along the way, women disguised themselves as men and walked to the capital city of Hongzhou.

It's a lot livelier than her hometown.

It's all new things that you've never heard of.

Xiao Zhong later felt that he had not been able to really impress Qing Ran.

Maybe it just made him think that he was an interesting girl and that she was good-looking.

Xiao Zhong is extremely spiritual.

In the words of a cultivator, it is called good understanding and high wisdom.

Although she is a northern woman.

But with the temperament of the south.

Not to mention thoughtfulness, but also gentle and lovely.

This is completely different from the desert in the north of the country, and Hongzhou is full of wolf smoke.

As soon as Xiao Zhong stepped into the Hongzhou Mansion City, he heard people's discussions about Qingfu and Qingran.

She was curious.

I want to know what this most outstanding swordsman of the Qingfu generation, Qing Ran, who has been passed down by word of mouth, looks like.

After taking him to really meet Qing Ran.

It turned out to be very different from the picture he had sketched in his head.

Qing Ran is not smart.

Even a little clumsy.

was born in Qingfu, and then wandered on the rivers and lakes for a long time, but he still had no scheming.

But these seem ridiculous in the eyes of others.

Xiao Zhong felt extremely real and down-to-earth.

From that moment on, she felt that her ambitions could only be realized with this man.

However, what she didn't know was that Qing Ran at this time already had a marriage contract.

After traveling through the rivers and lakes, he will return to Qingfu to get married.

Qingran has a good horse.

While he was whipping his horse and galloping through the market, Xiao Zhong suddenly appeared and stood in front of his path.

"What do you have to teach Miss?"

Qing Ran had never encountered such a scene.

Immediately grabbed the reins, dismounted and asked.

"You're Qingran?"

Xiao Zhong asked, tilting his head.

"It's Qingran down there. ”

Qing Ran replied politely.

He is a whole head taller than Xiao Zhong's.

Xiao Zhong didn't speak after hearing this, but just circled around Qingran twice.

"Girl, but you're looking for me?"

Qing Ran felt strange in her heart and asked.

That's how honest he is......

Whatever comes out of your heart, your mouth speaks.

If he thinks it's strange, he'll definitely ask for it.

"I just want to get to know you, does that count?"

Xiao Zhong said with a smile.

"This ...... Why does the girl have to know her?"

Qing Ran smiled a little embarrassedly and said.

"Because your reputation is great. ”

Xiao Zhong said.

"That's not my reputation...... It's just my family's reputation. ”

Xiao Zhong's words were not a compliment.

However, Qing Ran's answer was really true.

Although at this time, he had already cultivated all three swords of the Shadow Slashing Knife.

But when others talked about him, they still couldn't bypass the big mountain of Qingfu.

Qing Ran didn't like it very much.

Like every Young Ranger, he aspires to make his own world.

Qingran is Qingran.

It has nothing to do with Qingfu.

But until now, he has still not been able to get rid of the shackles and shackles of Qingfu.

Maybe you can't get rid of it at all.

"Are you surnamed Qing?"

Xiao Zhong asked.

"It's Qingran below, of course the surname is Qing!"

Qing Ran frowned.

But he was confused by Xiao Zhong's words.

"Since your surname is Qing, then you will be a member of Qingfu for the rest of your life. The name of Qingfu is also your name. ”

Xiao Zhong said.

"That's a good girl...... I still know the truth that both glory and loss are lost. It's just ......"

Qing Ran wanted to speak and stopped.

He was going to the east of the city on an errand.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, he stopped here and said so many words to Xiao Zhong.

"It's just that you're still unwilling, aren't you?"

Xiao Zhong asked rhetorically.

"Haha...... The girl is really insightful! That's right, I'm not reconciled. ”

Qing Ran said with a hearty smile.

It had been a long time since he had spoken to anyone about these things.

Others will only whisper a few words behind their backs.

But no one dared to say it in front of him.

But it was like a thorn stuck in Qing Ran's chest.

Although it has been stuck for a long time, Qing Ran has become numb.

But when I think about it coldly, or when I am mentioned like this, I still feel a faint pain and feel very uncomfortable.

"Then how will you be willing?"

Xiao Zhong asked.

She wanted to think about Qing Ran again.

A person, especially a man.

If you only rely on the name of your family to make a name for yourself, you can't be considered a real skill.

It's just a.

True heroes, true heroes, even if they are born glorious and noble, they will not stop their desire to forge ahead.

The family may be a kind of shackle that two people hate at some point.

But more often than not, it's a sense of responsibility that spurs people on.

She didn't know if Qing Ran had this sense of responsibility.

So she has to think about it.

"Now when others talk about me, the first sentence is the eldest son of Qingfu. I hope that one day this order will be reversed. ”

Qing Ran looked into the distance and said.

Although it's just a hope.

But he spoke very calmly and firmly.

A gust of wind blew through the hall.

blew up Qingran's clothes, and also wrinkled Xiao Zhong's skirt.

The two men were speechless at odds.

Qingran is standing against the wind.

But the wind and sand didn't make his eyes change in any way.

It's still so clear and clean, revealing a strong sense of confidence.

What comes out of the mouth can be a lie that is used to deceive people.

But it is difficult to fake a person's eyes.

Especially a frank person like Qing Ran.

No matter how big the wind and sand are, it can't blow his heart, and it can't close his eyes.

To this day, when Xiao Zhong recalls the scene of the first meeting, he still feels very sweet in his heart.

The luckiest thing about the two of them is that when they meet, their emotional world is not scarred at all.

It's like the snow falling in the middle of the night in winter.

The lights of thousands of homes are extinguished.

There wasn't a single footprint on the snow.

The emotion without scars can be regarded as extremely fair for the anti-dumping and anti-dumping forces.

But fair is a ridiculous word for feelings.

Soulmates may part ways over a trivial matter.

Peerless lovers will also escape from the sedan chair at the last moment before getting married.

However, when others generally talk about fairness, they usually say whether the identities and status of the two match each other.

If you look at it from this point.

Xiao Zhong's is not worthy of Qingran at all.

So love must be unfair.

When you feel the perfect fit.

God will definitely break this fit in other places.

This can be regarded as a kind of balance and patchwork.

Qing Rangui is the eldest son of Qingfu.

And Xiao Zhong is just a private girl.

My father owned a small shop.

Relying on the support of the surrounding villagers, live with food and clothing.

"You are the eldest prince of Qingfu...... What's the point of reversing it?"

Xiao Zhong's tone gradually lowered.

Qing Ran was standing in front of her.

But it was too far away from her.

Standing in front of him was only Qing Ran's body, a shell.

And Qing Ran's mind is a floating cloud above the nine heavens to her.

This is half a stone's throw away, half the feeling of the end of the world.

Xiao Zhong really couldn't bear it......

Her ambitions have also wavered.

Maybe I should listen to the name of my parents and the words of the matchmaker.

Find a good person who is relatively equal.

One is not a hero, nor is he a hero, but he can live a down-to-earth life and marry an honest man.

The days will be dull though.

But no matter how fierce the love is, won't it all return to that three meals a day in the end?

It's just that some people eat the delicacies of the mountains and seas, and some people only have coarse tea and light rice.

But whether it is delicacies from the mountains and seas, or coarse tea and light rice, you can still be hungry when you eat it.

As long as they don't die, then everyone is alive and well.

"If Qingfu is at its peak, its status in the lower will naturally rise. But if the Qingfu is in decline and decay, the burden of revival will also be shouldered by me...... Others only saw the scenery of me relying on the name of Qingfu, but they didn't know how much suffering I was suffering every day......"

Qing Ran shook his head and said.

Xiao Zhong couldn't understand these words.

She couldn't keep up with Qing Ran's thoughts at all.

In her eyes, Qingfu is a behemoth high above.

Even if it is the state ruler of Nahong Prefecture, he is also a brother and sister to the head of Qingfu.

Xiao Zhong really couldn't understand what Qing Ran was talking about.

"Where's the girl?"

Xiao Zhong was very disappointed and ready to leave.

She secretly laughed at herself in her heart.

When she was in her hometown, if those who were in a slightly worse condition came to her door to propose marriage, her mother would say, "The toad wants to eat swan meat." ”

But now that he has arrived at this Hongzhou capital city, especially after chatting with Qing Ran for a few words, Xiao Zhong really feels that he is the toad who just wants to eat swan meat.

The swan is white and elegant.

The toad spends his days in the muddy pond......

There is no way that the two sides will intersect.

Qing Ran can get off the horse and stop and talk to himself, which may already be a great luck and gift.

Xiao Zhong looked up at the sky.

She felt that it was all arranged in the dark.

It is the number of days to meet Qingran.

And he talks to himself gently, which is also a few days.

But in the end, the number of days was to make her realize her insignificance and humility......

Sometimes knowing too much can lead to unhappiness.

At least in this Hongzhou capital city, Xiao Zhong's family is far from being happy when he was in his hometown.

"I'm going home. ”

Xiao Zhong said.

"Oh...... Where does the girl live? If the girl doesn't mind, I can give you a ride. ”

Qing Ran said.

This was something that Xiao Zhong didn't expect.

The purpose of the days has been fully achieved.

Why do you want Qing Ran to say this more?

The joy of first sight is gone.

His own ambition is also crumbling.

Could it be that this number of days still refuses to let go of himself?

She must be covered with blood?

Xiao Zhong thought so, but said a good word in his mouth.

Since it is already so.

No matter how intense it is, there's nothing to worry about.

Xiao Zhong was also numb.

Her appearance, for Qing Ranyan, may be just an accident.

And there is something that has changed his life, let alone a surprise.

However, at the beginning, Xiao Zhong felt that emotions could satisfy her ambition and comfort her gratitude.

But some are just passing by.

Qing Ran said to send her home, maybe it was just that this passerby stayed a little longer.

Qing Ran helped Xiao Zhong and rode on the horse.

He led the horse and walked briskly.

Xiao Zhong did not say where her home was.

Because she doesn't have a home here at all.

So whenever she came to an intersection, Qing Ran would stop and look back at her.

Xiao Zhong had to point in a random direction.

There are a lot of people in Hongzhou Mansion who know Qingran.

There was no one who knew Xiao Zhong's family.

What's more, with her appearance, she is not extremely outstanding in the Hongzhou Mansion.

People on both sides of the road kept greeting Qingran.

At the same time, his eyes also wandered around Xiao Zhong's body.

But it made her feel numb.

Women would have liked to have been noticed.

Especially beautiful women.

The more people who follow, the more attractive she is.

But there is no need to hide it.

But Xiao Zhong felt disdain and contempt from these people's eyes.

After all, such a woman with such an unknown name and a bit of grace actually asked the eldest son of Qingfu to lead the horse for herself.

Ordinary people naturally have a lot of pickled thoughts.

"Alright, I'm here!"

Xiao Zhong couldn't stand it anymore after all, and jumped off the horse and said.

"But...... This is the gate!"

Qing Ran pointed ahead and said.

Xiao Zhong was not familiar with the roads in Hongzhou Fucheng.

Just casually talking about it left and right.

Unexpectedly, he walked to the gate of Hongzhou Mansion City crookedly.

She looked at the tall castle tower and smiled bitterly.

Sure enough, this day is the last time to play tricks on her.

Now it seems that this Hongzhou capital city is really not where she should come.

"I'm not from here...... I'm from the countryside. ”

Xiao Zhong said.

The tone is very proud.

Even if she's lost face.

But the last stubbornness in my heart is still unwilling to let go.

The throbbing has long since faded.

The current Xiao Zhong family has regarded Qingran as normal.

Xiao Zhong's mother is just an ordinary woman.

I haven't read any books, and I don't know any big truths.

However, she once told Xiao Zhong:

"Love is about being with someone day and night and then seeing who dies first. ”

"But isn't that annoying?"

Xiao Zhong asked.

"If you really love someone, you will continue to accept and endure their shortcomings. Eventually, I got used to it. You see, your father often secretly goes to play pai gow when he is looking at the shop. At first, I would talk about him, but then I just laughed and laughed. I don't have anything to do left or right, and you've grown up. If he really has itchy hands and wants to play, I will let him go home and let me know and let me see the shop, and he will play to his heart's content. ”

Xiao Zhong's mother said to her.

The two have been together for a long time.

They will also be numb to each other.

In the end, the plan is not to be beautiful, but to show each other the ugliest side.

This ugliness is real.

Xiao Zhong also felt that life was dull without a trace of waves.

She had also seen her parents arguing, throwing things, and even dying and crying and making trouble at one point, all of which became very common in her eyes.

And her mother is extremely familiar with his father's every movement, every word, and every strand of hair.

But it's because it's too familiar, so it's so commonplace.

At least in Xiao Zhong's eyes, everything about these parents will no longer have such a heartbeat.

But the strange thing is that in my mother's heart, there is still no man who can compare with her father.

Whether it's smart or handsome, or in good shape.

can't compare to her father.

These shortcomings, after being accepted, have also become complete in the eyes of Xiao Zhong's mother.

Perhaps when he was young, Xiao Zhong's parents were also ambiguous.

Hiding in the bed in the middle of the night, I couldn't sleep because of the smile of the other party during the day.

But after so many years.

But they can finally see each other as normal.

Never shy away from anything, never run away.

Return to a sense of calm.

"Now if you go back to the country, I'm afraid you'll have to walk at night...... That's not safe. ”

Qing Ran said.

"But I have to go home. ”

Xiao Zhong said.

"Have you eaten?"

Qing Ran suddenly asked.

Xiao Zhong shook his head.

"Then let's go eat first! ”

Qing Ran said with a smile.

Then he took Xiao Zhong to the Xiangteng Inn in Hongzhou Mansion.

Qingfu has chartered three boxes here all year round.

As soon as the shopkeeper saw Qing Ran, he greeted him respectfully and politely.

Xiao Zhong walked behind.

Everything in the Xiangteng Inn was something she couldn't think of.

————————

"Madam, the master is awake!"

Just as Xiao Zhong was thinking about how to say something to Wen Qiwen, a little subordinate suddenly stepped forward and said.

"Wen'er, I have to go over, so I won't leave you first. If you have time these days, come and sit down. I still have something to tell you. ”

Xiao Zhong got up and said.

"Okay, Aunt Zhong, please also ask for hello to Uncle Qing on my behalf!"

Wen Qiwen said.

Xiao Zhong nodded, and then asked the villain to lead Wen Qiwen away.

She herself breathed a sigh of relief and walked towards the main seat of the Qing Mansion.

"You're here......"

Xiao Zhong walked into Qing Ran's room.

Although Qing Ran closed his eyes, he still knew who was coming.

Although he is very haggard now, his mind is not confused, and his ears have not declined.

"Would you like something to eat?"

Xiao Zhong stepped forward and sat at the end of the bed and asked.

"How is the house?"

Qing Ran shook his head and asked.

There was not a trace of blood on his cheeks.

The lips are also chapped and flaky.

There is a light in the house though.

But his upper body was in the shadow of the curtain.

It's hard to see.

"Everything is fine in Fuchu. ”

Xiao Zhong said.

"How's Qing'er's cultivation?"

Qing Ran then asked.

"She has already cultivated to the third sword, and she should be able to practice by the end of the year. ”

Xiao Zhong said.

Although she never praised Qing Xueqing in person.

But in her heart, she was very proud of her daughter.

"Qing'er still has a future!"

Qing Ran coughed lightly twice and said.

"I heard that Wen Tingbai came this afternoon?"

Qing Ran said.

He couldn't finish a sentence smoothly.

There are always a few gasps in between.

"Yes...... He came to ask us Qingfu for help. ”

Xiao Zhong said.

"You've said yes, haven't you?"

Qing Ran asked.

"I think it's a good opportunity. ”

Xiao Zhong said.

"What good chance?"

Qing Ran asked.

"In this way, it will make our Qingfu's position in Hongzhou more stable. ”

Xiao Zhong said.

"Wen Tingbai is going to send his son, so you also took your daughter. ”

Qing Ran said with a smile.

"I think that since we have decided to cooperate, we have to have some sincerity. ”

Xiao Zhong said.

He couldn't hear the joy and sorrow at all from Qingran's tone.

I don't know what his attitude is.

"You're doing a good job. This is indeed a good opportunity. What's more, Qing'er should also go out and practice. Always stay at home, no matter how good the knife is, it's useless. You must know that the sharpest edge in the world is the human heart. That's something that no sword can resist. ”

Qing Ran said.

"Didn't the master also go out and travel back then?"

Xiao Zhong said with a smile.

A hanging heart is finally let go.

It seems that Qing Ran approves of her approach.

"yes...... I also fell a lot back then. ”

Qingran said self-deprecatingly.

But it suddenly became relaxed.

Xiao Zhong also smiled slightly.

Didn't she meet him on the way to Qingran's travels?

"However, when it comes to the robbery of the money, you have to be very careful. The forces that dare to shake the king of the north as the enemy are not something that our Qingfu can offend. We just want to help, and we don't leave a trace. ”

Qing Ran said with a twist.

"How do you think you can be safe?"

Xiao Zhong asked.

This is not a politeness.

She also really wanted to hear Qing Ran's opinion.

"Come out!"

Qing Ran didn't answer, but said to the back of the bed.

Xiao Zhong looked up suddenly.

I saw a man come out of the shadows behind the bed.

After Xiao Zhong completely saw the natural appearance, he couldn't help but tremble......

Even his lips began to tremble.
