lonely king

Ning Huai Wang three years.

The sun is scorching and the trees are lush.On a hot summer day, even the cicadas on the trees stopped singing and limp on the branches, as if they would be shackled into a ball of fire by the scorching sun if they moved.The birds were also dying, and the horses were hiding in the stables, collapsing as if they had lost their souls.This summer is really annoying.

But Sai Jian was in high spirits, and after the morning court, he handed everything over to the eldest son Liu Jing, while he ran to the stables, and involuntarily pulled up his favorite red horse, riding on it, he was about to leave the royal city , Out of Yeling.

Wei Yu got out from nowhere, he looked at Sai Jian who was full of interest, curled his lips, "Your Majesty is going to the Qiangma Grassland again?"

Sai Jian glanced at him, "Why? You also miss the scenery of the Qiangma grassland, and you want to go back with me to have a look?"

Wei Yu snorted, and rolled his eyes again, "Your Majesty, you went to the Qiangma Grassland. You missed the scenery of the grassland, didn't you? Don't you know who you are thinking about? I have only established a country in Daning for a few years, and the monarch is so disrespectful." In order to manage the government, he even traveled thousands of miles from Yeling to the Qiangzhu Grassland."

A stone hit Wei Yu hard on the head, and Sai Jian looked down at Wei Yu with a look of majesty in his eyes.He said: "Wei Yu, you kid is really getting bolder and bolder. How dare you make fun of this king? It seems that this king appointed you as the great general protecting the country too early. When this king comes back, he will withdraw your general. I will confine you in the general's mansion, and you are not allowed to run around!"

"Your Majesty!" As soon as Wei Yu heard that he was not allowed to run around, he immediately became unwilling. He still wanted to find Mo Yan. How could he be grounded in the General's Mansion?

Wei Yu bit his lips aggrievedly, and stared at Sai Jian like a child, "Your Majesty is the ruler of the world and the ruler of a country, how can you not count your words! You can't ground your feet casually, and you didn't say anything. Well!"

"Besides, this king really grounded you!"

Wei Yu covered his mouth instantly, and smiled flatteringly, "I will definitely stop talking nonsense, and I will go back to the mansion right away. Your Majesty, you have a smooth journey!"

Wei Yu ran out of the stable as if fleeing, as if he stopped for a while, Sai Jianzhen would ground him in the general's mansion.Sai Jian looked at the back of Wei Yu leaving, smiled helplessly, then tightened the reins, turned around and walked out of the palace.

It was not easy to convince the chief of the family that he had stolen a few days of leisure, of course he had to rush to the Qiangzhao Grassland, and these days should not be wasted.

Just what to do in the Qiangzhu Grassland?A smile overflowed from the corner of Sai Jian's mouth, of course he was going to see an old friend.

Qiangma Grassland, Luoxian Palace.

Luoxian Palace was originally the old palace of the Qiang Emperor. After Sai Jian established the Daning Kingdom and moved his capital to Yeling, he changed the name of the old palace to Luoxian Palace and made it a separate palace for the royal family to play and rest.It's just that this Luoxian Palace is different from other other palaces, no one is allowed to live here, and only when Sai Jian occasionally comes to the Qiangzhu Grassland will he settle down in Luoxian Palace.

Luoxian Palace is no different from before, the most towering place in the palace is Wangshu Pavilion.But at this moment in Wangshu Pavilion, there is a leisurely cool air coming out of the east window, which attracts many birds to stop here, stealing the coolness.

The cool air comes from the large water tank in the house.Next to the east window at the top of the building, there is a large water tank filled with cold water.This water is scoured from the Qingmu River at the foot of the snow-capped mountain in the northernmost part of Cangyu Mountain. The water in the Qingmu River is the coolest, and it is the best way to get rid of the heat in summer.

There is still a white shadow in Wangshu Pavilion, standing beside the desk.Looking from the east window, one can only see the back of the man, even if it is only the back, one can see that the man is slim and tall, and there is a sense of leisure and elegance in his gestures and gestures.He was drawing with a pen, occasionally raising his eyes and looking out the window.From the beginning to the end, without uttering a word, it is like a good painting.

When Sai Jian broke into Wangshu Pavilion, he saw such a scene. He seemed to be afraid that the person in front of him would disappear suddenly, so he rushed over in an instant, hugged him tightly from behind, and put his chin on his chest. The man's shoulder socket was lightly rubbed, and it was about to be buried in the neck.

The man frowned slightly: "You ruined my painting."

The cold voice came into Sai Jian's ears, but Sai Jian didn't take it seriously. Instead, he stretched out his hand from his armpit, snatched the pen from his hand, and broke the man's shoulder so that he was facing Own.

Sai Jian said: "I miss you, I can't wait to see you, don't you want to see me, Nian'er?"

That face was astonishingly Baili Nian's face, except that it was paler, it was the same as before.But it was this face and this person that made Sai Jian feel sad for a long time, and even heartbroken over his death for a long time and could not turn back.But what about this person?He actually hid in the Qiangma grassland.If Saijian hadn't returned to the Qiangzhu Grassland because of political affairs, he might have thought that this man was dead and would be immersed in grief forever.

"Nian'er, how can you be so cruel!" Sai Jian teased, gritted his teeth.

When he first discovered Baili Nian, Sai Jian couldn't believe it, but how could Baili Nian's face be faked by others.At that time, Baili Nian was standing alone by the stream at the foot of Cangyu Mountain, still dressed in white, even if he used extremely ordinary cloth, it still couldn't conceal his temperament.He was holding a green fruit that he didn't know where to pick, and was taking a bite, when he raised his head and met Sai Jian's fiery gaze.

Looking at his ordinary mountain man's attire, with a hunting bow and arrow beside him, he looks like a Guiyin mountain man.Sai Jian burst into tears, is this man planning to live in the mountains and forests for the rest of his life?How could Sai Jian allow it!

He didn't say anything, ran over and tied Baili Nian up, ignored Baili Nian's struggle and refused to say anything, just dragged him onto the horse, and immediately brought him into Luoxian Palace.As if he was afraid that Baili Nian would run away again, he set up heavy troops in Luoxian Palace, not allowing anyone to spread the news that Baili Nian was still alive, and even more so not allowing Baili Nian to leave Luoxian Palace.

Today is the third month that Baili Nian has been imprisoned here.Sai Jian didn't intend to let him go, and even planned to lock him up in Wangshu Pavilion for the rest of his life.

Baili Nian raised his hand and pushed Sai Jian away, and walked under the mahogany table in the middle of the room without saying a word.Tea was still brewing on the small peach wood table, and he sat on the soft cushion, pouring tea carelessly, "Why are you here?"

His words were neither cold nor cold, even though he was asking a question, he didn't care whether the other party answered or not.This clear and cold appearance is the same as before, but Sai Jian is not as honest as before. He got to the side of Baili Nian with one buttocks, put his arms around his shoulders, and brought him into his arms.

"I came here when I missed you. I'm afraid that in the blink of an eye, you will be blown to death again, and you don't know where you went. Wouldn't this king never find you again? I can no longer get close to you, and I will never get close to you again." Can't hold you in my arms?"

Hearing this unscrupulous nonsense, Baili Nian didn't change his face.He slapped Sai Jian's hand off his shoulder, sat up straight again, and brought a cup of tea to Sai Jian, saying sternly: "It's hot, move less and talk less."

"What if the king insists on moving more and talking more?" Sai Jian stretched his hand to his waist and squeezed it deliberately.Xia Ri's clothes were thin, even though Sai Jian didn't use much force, he still felt the light and smooth sensuality through the thin clothes.And Sai Jian's hand holding the sword for many years is full of calluses, and even the fingertips are a bit hard, and it feels quite deep to the touch.

Baili Nian's face finally changed, he turned to look at Sai Jian, "Stop making trouble."

"Do you have to make trouble?"

"..." Baili Nian looked at Sai Jian quietly, "You are more annoying than before."

In the past, Sai Jian followed Baili Nian in everything, but first provoked Baili Nian again and again, which is indeed a bit different.But Baili Nian's teasing didn't make Sai Jian angry.Not only was he not angry, but he even laughed, he hugged Baili Nian recklessly, and even raised his head and kissed him on the cheek, causing Baili Nian's eyes to show a bit of panic.After all, although this person was reckless before, he will not be as unscrupulous as he is now.

But Sai Jian said: "You have made me sad for two years in vain, if this king coaxes you like before, wouldn't you want to control me again."

She held Baili Nian's shoulders, not allowing him to take half a step away from her. "This time, I'll tell you the truth. You don't want to leave again, and you don't want to take advantage of this king. This king will not listen to you this time, but let himself do it."

Saying that, Sai Jian seemed to be determined, and then kissed the other party hard on the face.He was entertaining himself, complacent about what he said, but when he looked up, he met Baili Nian's cold eyes, Baili Nian stretched out his hand and slapped him on the forehead, Sai Jian didn't reach out, Baili Nian The man had pulled out his arms and stood aside.

"Don't listen to anything, just let yourself do it—?" Baili Nian raised his eyes slightly, and repeated this sentence with a very profound tone.

Sai Jian was taken aback for a moment, and immediately raised his hand in surrender, while pulling Baili Nian's hand, he explained: "I'm just talking nonsense, talking nonsense!"

"My king is still the same as before! Nian'er can do whatever she wants. If Nian'er doesn't want to stay in Wangshu Pavilion, then just go out and play, but don't run to places where this king can't find her, and don't want I'll leave this king again." At the end, Sai Jian pursed his lower lip aggrievedly, I felt pity for that look.

Baili Nian was also affected by his words, didn't say anything, sat across from him and poured tea again, and drank a cup by himself.

Sai Jian didn't know what Baili Nian meant, so he looked over eagerly, "Nian'er won't really want to leave Wangshu Pavilion, will he?"

"What if we leave?"

"Then this king will send you away, dress you up and salute you, prepare food, water and wine for you, and after sending you away, this king will wait here eagerly for your return. If you don't come back every day, this king will wait for a day, every day." If you don't come back, you will wait for a year, anyway, you have waited for two years, and you have been depressed for two years, what are you afraid of?" Sai Jian sobbed twice, and drank the tea in front of him, his posture was extremely artificial.

Baili Nian laughed, and shook his head slightly, feeling helpless.

He said: "Wangshu Pavilion is very good, I don't want to leave."

"That's what you said!"

Sai Jian jumped up like chicken blood, he looked like a different person from the one who was about to cry just now, and even leaned closer to Baili Nian without any explanation, and wrapped his arms around his waist tightly, looking like he was about to tie him up. Posture here.

Baili Nian frowned, "Don't you feel hot?"

"I don't think so!" Sai Jian said without thinking.

With his rascal appearance, Baili Nian couldn't care less about him, and he stuck to himself like a skinny plaster, and he couldn't get rid of it, even getting in the way of drinking tea.Baili Nian moved slightly, and he followed suit. In the end, Baili Nian couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to poison him!

"Nian'er, do you feel hot?" Sai Jian asked inexplicably.

Baili Nian said unhappily: "You are hotter than the sun outside." It is naturally hot to be close to him.

"If it's hot, you shouldn't wear so much." Sai Jian said stickily.

Before Baili Nian had time to comprehend the deep meaning, he felt that his girdle had been untied.His face turned red, and he grabbed Sai Jian's hand, "What are you doing?"

"Do nothing. Really..."

"—!"

Without the confinement of the girdle, the thin white silk shirt was torn off, and it was unknown who kicked down the low mahogany table during the disturbance, and the tea spilled all over the floor.Sai Jian simply picked him up and walked towards the inner room.Baili Nian blushed, before he could say no, he felt a kiss, and then his jaw was broken, his lips and teeth intersected, and the taste was shared.

The white gauze curtain in the inner room fluttered slightly, and the two figures were also buried in the silk curtain.

……

The next day was as hot as usual.

There was a figure swaying at the gate of Wangshu Pavilion, and Wei Yu was asking the guards guarding the gate, "Has the king woke up?"

The guard nodded and shook his head again, "Subordinate... I don't know either."

"You don't know what it means!" Wei Yu raised the hilt of his sword and knocked on the guard's forehead, obviously not satisfied with the answer.

The guard said vaguely, "Your Majesty came out just now, but he went back again. It seems... It seems that Mr. Baili hasn't got up yet."

There was a blush on Wei Yu's face, and he exchanged a glance with the guard, and understood the meaning.Some intermittent voices came from Wangshu Pavilion again, Wei Yu subconsciously scratched his head and looked aside.Wei Yu came to find Sai Jian with something important, and wanted to wait here for Sai Jian to get up, but hearing the voice inside, it didn't seem like he would be able to finish it in a while, Wei Yu squeezed the memorial in his hand, sighed, and turned around want to go.

Before he left, he patted the guard's shoulder, "After the king gets up, remember to tell the king that I have something important to tell the king."

Guard: "Yes."

After noon, Wei Yu was taken to Wangshu Pavilion. He had been waiting impatiently, but what about Sai Jian?He was standing at the door of the inner room, kept knocking on the door and talking nonsense, even Wei Yu called "Your Majesty" twice when he entered the door, but he didn't hear him, he was just playing tricks.

Sai Jian: "Nian'er, I know I'm wrong, don't drive me out. Besides, it's getting late, you have to come out for lunch, right? What do you want to eat, I'll let the kitchen do it .Twister~"

Sai Jian: "Nian'er! Did you hear me talking?"

Wei Yu: "My lord, did you hear what I said!"

Wei Yu looked at Sai Jian, who was lying on the door like a gecko, and shook his head helplessly. Didn't it mean that after dominating the world, he became mature and stable, and obeyed the rules and manners?But what is the difference between this look and the prairie man many years ago?It is no different from the bastard who ran to the official road to take Baili Nian back to Qiangzhu!

Sai Jian finally found Wei Yu, he turned to look at him, "Why are you here?"

"Why do you think I'm here?" Wei Yu had one head and two big heads, "Didn't you send someone to call me over just now?"

It was only then that Sai Jian remembered that just after waking up, a guard reported that General Wei Yu had come to Luoxian Palace and had something important to report to the king.Sai Jian sent someone to invite Wei Yu, but now he had offended his heart again, so he forgot about it in a hurry.

He looked at Wei Yu: "Is there something wrong with Yeling?"

Wei Yu nodded: "The Lord Wu Prison came to Yeling with generous gifts, and wanted to discuss the matter of paying tribute with the king. Although the chief minister was already appeasing, the Lord Wu Prison came prepared, and the chief minister did not It is good to say that King Ming has come to the Qiangzhu Grassland, so he can only drag it along, and ask the king to make a decision."

"Wu Prison Kingdom really will find something to do when there is nothing to do! Isn't he just adding trouble to this king!?"

Both the Wuyu Kingdom and the Qiangzhu Kingdom are grassland kingdoms, and there were some blood connections in the past, but in Sai Jian's generation, there is not much involvement.After Sai Jian unified the world and established the Daning Kingdom, there was no embarrassment in thinking of the "old relationship" with the Wu Prison Kingdom. In the past two years, the Wu Prison Kingdom has grown stronger and stronger. It also gave Sai Jian a headache.

"Your Majesty also wants to return to Yeling immediately?" Wei Yu asked.

Sai Jian was speechless, he really didn't want to go back from the bottom of his heart, but Wu Prison was also the leader of a country and came to Yeling, so he couldn't just let Liu Jing deal with it.Just as he was suffering from a headache, the door of the inner room suddenly opened, and Baili Nian, dressed in white, stood in front of him, his face still expressionless and indifferent.

"Nian'er, you are finally willing to come out!" Sai Jian said and started to fight, but when he raised his hand, Baili Nian beat him down.

Baili Nian pushed him away and walked out, "But the lord of Wu prison who killed King Yue of Xizhao back then?"

The words were addressed to Wei Yu. Wei Yu didn't expect Baili Nian to talk to him before he appeared. He was stunned for a while, then remembered to talk, and followed Baili Nian to the outer hall. "Yes, it is the king who wants to take the head of King Xizhao to Qiang Zhuo to claim credit."

"I think so." Baili Nian nodded.

I thought he would say something about the Wu prison country, but Baili Nian was already sitting at the low mahogany table, and invited Wei Yu to sit across from him, and sent someone to make some tea, and sent the kitchen to have lunch.

"General Wei hasn't eaten lunch, has he?" Baili Nian asked Wei Yu.

Wei Yu nodded embarrassedly, "I came here in a hurry, and I haven't had lunch yet. But this matter of the prison country..."

"It's just a trivial matter, let's talk about it after lunch."

trifle?Wei Yu secretly raised his eyes and glanced at Baili Nian, this is not a trivial matter, the world is peaceful today, the only thing that is not peaceful is the Wu prison country, at this time the ruler of the Wu prison country has gone to Yeling, and Baili Nian Say it's a trivial matter?Wei Yu slandered, but didn't care what he said.

But Sai Jian squeezed to Baili Nian's side like a taste, "Why do you only talk to Wei Yu and ignore me?"

Baili Nian still ignored him, and poured tea for Wei Yu himself. Wei Yu took a sneak peek at Sai Jian, seeing that the latter's face was so dark that he was cowardly afraid to speak up, and he didn't even dare to drink the tea in front of him. bump.Rao Wei Yu usually commits the following crimes to provoke Sai Jian, and he also knows that it is related to the matter of Baili Nian, so he must not touch Sai Jian, a tiger.

"Why doesn't Nian'er pour me tea!" Sai Jian pursed his lips, with an expression like he wanted to eat someone.

Baili Nian finally gave him a glance. After seeing the latter's appearance, a faint smile rose from the corner of his mouth, and he didn't speak. He just picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Sai Jian.

It was just a cup of tea, and a smile immediately appeared on Sai Jian's face, and the change of face became faster than Tian'er.Baili Nian didn't take it seriously, but Wei Yu on the opposite side was dumbfounded.

"Why are you still stuck here, why don't you leave? After reporting the matter, people can leave."

Seemingly finding that Wei Yu was an eyesore here, Sai Jian chased him away without hesitation.Wei Yu, who was picking up the teacup but before putting the tea into his mouth, put it down again without even taking a sip, and stood up tremblingly.

"What about the Wu prison country—?"

"Let's talk again!" Sai Jian waved him out, showing the appearance of a fool who doesn't want to care about political affairs.

Wei Yu frowned tightly, as if he couldn't accept such a complete change of attitude.When Daning just founded the country, Sai Jian looked like a good monarch who worried about the world. How could he find Baili Nian and beat him back to his original form!

Baili Nian was still sitting upright on the cushion, without a mission expression or any words.Wei Yu also had no choice but to turn his head and leave, and heaved a long sigh, lamenting that his king was on the right track again.

"Aren't you going to deal with it?" After Wei Yu left, Baili Nian finally spoke.

Sai Jian approached rather rascally, "Why don't Nian Er give me an idea."

"I'm not a king." Baili Nian was also not polite.

Without even thinking about it, Sai Jian said: "If you want to be king, I will immediately give up my throne to you!"

A slash flew over, and Sai Jian, who was always laughing, realized that this matter might really provoke Baili Nian, so he immediately suppressed his smile. "This king is just joking! I have no idea about the matter of the Wu prison country! If you don't want to give me an idea, this king knows that Nian'er is the most clever person, and the clever plan is easy to come up with." .”

"do not know."

Baili Nian said mercilessly, after deciding to go back to the mountains and forests, he swore to himself that he would never get involved in the affairs of the world again, no matter how serious it was, and no matter what the world would become in the end.From the time Baili Nian drank the poisoned wine, he has nothing to do with this world.

Looking at Baili Nian's downcast eyes, Sai Jian understood what he meant, Baili Nian didn't want to interfere with the world.But is Sai Jian a person who will follow the rules?He leaned in front of Baili Nian: "Now the world has been settled, even if there is any war, the country will not change hands, but if the Wu prison country provokes a war, it will be the soldiers and the people who will suffer. Nian'er came up with an idea to help Ben Wang relieves unnecessary troubles, this is not interference in the world."

"Don't you think so?" Sai Jian deliberately leaned closer to Baili Nian's face, his lips were about to stick to it, but Baili Nian slapped him back again.Baili Nian's expression remained calm, but after Sai Jian's hand reached his waist, his expression changed.

"If you make trouble again, I will drive you out."

After Sai Jian took advantage of it, he didn't care about messing around again. Since he came to Luoxian Palace yesterday, he has been pestering Baili Nian. Although Baili Nian still looks indifferent, Sai Jian also knows in his heart. , this person has obeyed him several times, and if he provokes him again, he will really get angry.

"I'm not going to make trouble anymore." Sai Jian withdrew his hands as a flattery, and raised his hands in front of Baili Nian, as if asking for credit, "You and I see how good I am".Baili Nian didn't even give him a look. This man had been tossing so hard last night that Bai Li Nian was not very energetic at the moment.Before, he knew that he was a little bit jealous, but now that Sai Jian was in bed, he was really overwhelmed.

Baili Nian put a distance away from him, "Now that the world is peaceful, we can't let the Wuyu Kingdom grow stronger, so as not to cause more troubles. The leader of the Wuyu Kingdom is too ambitious. Let's find an assassin and kill him directly on the way back to the country. The prince of Wuyu Kingdom is a gentle person, and when the prince succeeds to the throne, he will be more kind to you, and he will surely keep his own place and will not cause trouble."

"Kill the Lord of the Unprisoned Kingdom directly..." Sai Jian muttered these words, and then looked at Baili Nian meaningfully, "This is a clean and neat way to get rid of future troubles forever. Nian'er, it's still the same as before. The same cold heart..."

Baili Nian's originally docile eyes widened in an instant, and even threw the teacup on the ground. "I've always been cold-hearted, and maybe I'll attack you one day, so don't keep me by your side, lest you cause disaster!"

He stood up and walked out, as if he wanted to leave Sai Jian and return to the mountains and forests again.Sai Jian realized that he had really angered Baili Nian, so he stood up and hugged him tightly.His movements were even faster than Baili Nian, before Baili Nian took two steps, he was imprisoned in his arms.

"This king is talking nonsense! You are talking nonsense! Nian'er, don't be angry."

However, it was too late for him, Baili Nian didn't know martial arts, so he raised his hand and patted Sai Jian on the shoulder, but Sai Jian didn't set up defenses against him, and he was patted back a few steps if he didn't pay attention.Although he didn't fall down, he left Baili Nian's body.

"Nianer?"

Sai Jian still wanted to make an aggrieved expression, and use it to keep Baili Nian, he knew that Baili Nian would attack him, but he didn't expect Baili Nian to turn his head and leave without even looking at him. people.When he finally made an aggrieved expression, there was no one in the room.

"..." Sai Jian scratched his head embarrassingly as he looked at the empty lobby and the smiling worker next to him.
