At this time, it is the end of the year and the beginning of the year, as the saying goes, the shower never ends, at this time the rain has gradually stopped, the east is gradually white, and only the roosters can be heard chirping everywhere.

Lu Man sighed in his heart: The wind and rain are like obscurity, and the rooster crows. Seeing a gentleman, Yunhu doesn't like it......

She and Chen Xiuyuan glanced at each other, got up and left the table together, and said goodbye to Yu Dayou, Chen Xiuyuan said loudly: "There is no banquet in the world, tonight is a good meeting, the prosperity is not shallow, the general is the pillar of the pillars, and he will eventually be a major military event, and he will cherish it!"

Along the way, Lu Man kept his head down and remained silent, as if he was thinking about something. After a short time, he came to the lake, and Chen Xiuyuan said: "Miss Lu, you are tired too, hurry up and get on the boat to rest first." Lu Man said "um", raised his head, and said: "When the matter of the Fu'an Dart Bureau is over, I don't know what your plans are?" Chen Xiuyuan saw that she was beautiful and refined under the reflection of the morning light, and his heart was hot, and he couldn't help blurting out: "When the matter of the eldest brother is over, and then I have completed the things that the master has explained and the things entrusted by Zhang Daxia, I want to go to the account of General Yu to serve and wait until the Japanese are wiped out, and the banquet in the sea is clear, and I have passed my parents...... I'll go up to Mount Emei to see you......"

Lu Man said softly "um" again, and said, "Okay! I hope you don't have everything going well, I ...... I was on Mount Emei...... Waiting for you to ......" said that his face was full of flying clouds, infinite shyness, and almost inaudible.

Chen Xiuyuan didn't want to be short of breath and have a long love for his children, although he was very reluctant to part with Lu Man at this moment, he still turned his head and only said: "Yes!"

Lu Man looked at his back as he gradually moved away, until he couldn't see it clearly, his eyes were already hazy with tears, and he sighed softly: "Affectionate parting from ancient times......"

Chen Xiuyuan returned to the inn from the original road, passed through a few alleys, and just turned an intersection, he saw Liu Baoan leading two horses from a distance, waiting anxiously and looking in front of the main entrance of the inn, Chen Xiuyuan hurriedly rushed forward to meet. Liu Baoan saw that he had not returned overnight, and at this time there was another sword on his waist, and he hurriedly asked about the situation last night, Chen Xiuyuan said it briefly, but did not mention the names of Lu Man and Yu Dayou, only said that he happened to meet two good friends, and the three of them drank and talked together.

The two chatted for a few words, Chen Xiuyuan no longer modified, and then got on the horse with Liu Baoan. Along the way, Chen Xiuyuan remembered last night's adventure, and his heart was full of mixed feelings. In my heart and mind, Lu Man's beautiful and beautiful face always came out, and I didn't know if I could see her again in this life, and I felt a cool sourness in my heart. On this day, the two of them galloped out of the road for more than 100 miles, and they had entered the territory of Jianning Mansion at the time of the application.

Liu Baoan saw that he had arrived in Jianning, but it was not early today, and he saw that Chen Xiuyuan's eyes were bloodshot and tired, so he discussed with Chen Xiuyuan that he would find an inn to rest today, and after he had enough spirits, the two of them would go together to hand over the order of the day early tomorrow morning. Although Chen Xiuyuan was in a hurry all day, most of the time he was dazed on horseback, but fortunately, he was skilled, so he didn't fall off the galloping horse, and at this time, he didn't think about anything, just listened to Liu Baoan's arrangement. When Liu Baoan saw him like this, he was concerned in his heart, and couldn't help asking, "Brother Xian, what's wrong with you?" It wasn't until the third time that Chen Xiuyuan came back to his senses, and replied casually: "No, nothing, probably didn't sleep all night last night, and it's okay to sleep well tonight." ”

Liu Baoan shook his head helplessly, and had to lead him to rest in a "Sui'an old store" next to the road. The inn was spacious, and the two sat down on a table of eight immortals in the southwest corner, and as soon as they sat down, the sky was getting dark, the spring rain was continuous, and it was raining outside.

The shopkeeper hurriedly came to say hello, Liu Baoan is a glutton, just because he goes out all the year round, and the heavy responsibility is not convenient to drink and covet some appetite, although he ordered some meals at will, he still felt insufficient, and asked the shopkeeper what local special food there is, the shopkeeper smiled and said: "The guest officer is afraid that he doesn't know, our Jianning is the hometown of lotus seeds, and the lotus seed is built in the world, and this lotus seed is also used as a royal tribute, sent to the palace ** to the emperor and the ladies to enjoy! Jianlian Red Date Soup' is the signature of our store, and the guest officer will come to serve two bowls to your liking. ”

When Liu Baoan heard that it was eaten by the emperor and his mothers, he immediately felt salivating, and said: "Okay, good, the shopkeeper is not busy with your meal, first bring two bowls of this lotus seed soup to let us taste it!" The shopkeeper said: "Well, it's 'Jianlian Red Date Soup', you two later, I will let the little second brother bring it to you." After a while, the guy who ran the hall brought two celadon bowls, Liu Baoan and Chen Xiuyuan looked into the bowl, only to see that the lotus seeds were large and full, the color was like congealed fat, and then scooped up with a spoon and put it in the mouth to taste, sure enough, the taste was delicate, the fragrance was pleasant, and the entrance was extended, Liu Baoan couldn't help but praise. Chen Xiuyuan suddenly muttered: "It's a pity, it's a pity!" Liu Baoan held lotus seeds in his mouth, chewed with a slurp, and said strangely: "It's so delicious, what is a pity?" Chen Xiuyuan's face turned red and he said busily: "It's nothing." "But I thought in my heart: It's a pity that Lu Man is not here, but she didn't taste such a delicious 'Jianlian Red Date Soup'......

Chen Xiuyuan looked at this lotus seed, and thought of the lotus flower in his heart, and thought of the "Love Lotus Said", "to love the lotus out of the mud but not stained, clear ripples but not demons, straight through the outside, not vines and branches, fragrant and clear, pavilion and pure planting, can be viewed from a distance and can not be blasphemed...... Lotus, the gentleman of flowers...... Who is the love of the lotus...... I thought that Lu Manhua looked jade, isn't it just like the "water hibiscus" lotus......
