lonely king

The bright moon in the north is half covered by dark clouds.

On New Year's Eve, with sparkling silver trees and every family sitting together, it was very lively, but the candlelight in the Chaoming Courtyard was extremely quiet.

Tonight, New Year's Eve, Yu Wenyang has already entered the palace in the afternoon. After the state banquet, Yu Wenyang was raised in the palace since he was a child. Every New Year's Eve family banquet, he will have his seat, and this year is no exception, not to mention Beiyan Wang Zhongyan specially The position of prince was reserved for Yu Wenyang.

Although Yu Wenyang is not in the General's Mansion, but thinking about New Year's Eve, he did not neglect Baili Nian. The annual feast and wine are all available. Sui Yi and others are all celebrating the New Year in the General's Mansion. Yu Wenyang specially asked Sui Yi to invite Baili Nian to come The main seat of the hall was rejected by Baili Nian because he couldn't drink too much and didn't like the excitement.With Yu Wenyang absent, Sui Yi and the others did not dare to disturb Baili Nian, so the Courtyard of Ming Dynasty was empty and silent.

"My lord, my subordinates have warmed up the wine, and Sui Yi brought over dumplings."

Mo Yan said, he looked at the desk, Baili Nian had been standing there for most of the day, he had been painting, but he didn't complete a picture, after Mo Yan's voice entered his ears, he didn't look up, as if he didn't hear it, Mo Yan Didn't dare to bother him anymore.

After a long while, Baili Nian finally spoke, "The people below are waiting for you, you go."

Baili Nian's eyeliner is all over the place, and there are many people in Beiyan Wangcheng. These people are all in contact with Mo Yan. Baili Nian has never shown up. Bei Yan should go, but Mo Yan couldn't bear to look at Baili Nian at this moment. Every New Year's Eve, he would paint all night by himself.

"Subordinate...subordinate." Mo Yan still turned around and left, he had to rely on New Year's Eve to win over the world's information this time.

A black shadow flashed out of the General's Mansion, and the Chaoming Courtyard became even more quiet and cold, with only one person holding a Vermilion Bird jade pen, smearing and outlining on the pure white rice paper.

Mo Yan left the General's Mansion, swept up the roof, ran towards the dimly lit place, passed several buildings, but stopped suddenly.He frowned slightly, looked sideways to the right, and noticed someone sitting on the roof.

"Why did you come to Beiyan?" Mo Yan looked at the black figure on the other side of the roof with doubts.

Sure enough, there was a figure in the darkness, shaking and stood up, "Oh, I was discovered after hiding for a long time."

It was Wei Yu's voice, he brushed the hair hanging in front of his eyes, looked up at Mo Yan, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, a playful but not serious smile, "Okay, admit that your martial arts are still better than mine ,it's me."

Wei Yu originally thought that he would at least be able to avoid Mo Yan by working hard these days, but he was discovered in such a short while that Mo Yan's skill was indeed far superior to his own.

The one who really came was Wei Yu, but Mo Yan gave him a cold look, he didn't have the joy of reuniting with old friends, he was all on guard.

"Who asked who you are! I asked why you came to Beiyan?" Mo Yan said coldly.

"I'm just bored, come to Beiyan to have a look...look at the moon!" Wei Yu glanced around, pointed at the bright moon above his head, and said nonsense with a lost smile.

The corner of Mo Yan's mouth curled up into a sneer, he didn't believe Wei Yu's nonsense, he pointed his toes suddenly, and in the blink of an eye, he flew in front of Wei Yu, and suddenly grabbed his neck, "Don't tell me nonsense, you come to the north What did Yan do!?"

Wei Yu was not angry, nor did he fight back, he just smiled and said, "I told you to see Beiyan's moon, why don't you believe it?"

"Stop talking nonsense!" Mo Yan squeezed Wei Yu's hand a little harder, Wei Yu's face turned red, but he still didn't say anything else, instead he looked helpless, as if Mo Yan was really suspicious.

Mo Yan still refused to believe it, he looked around for a week, then looked at Wei Yu, and asked, "Are you the only one who came to Beiyan?"

Now Wei Yu frowned, rolled his eyes, and said with a smile, "Only I am here."

The answer was extremely tactful, and Wei Yu smiled a little mischievously, which turned out to be a bit bright in the dry and cold winter night.

Mo Yan frowned, and turned his head to look in the direction of the General's Mansion, worried, "Could it be that the prairie man also came to Beiyan?"

He is not a fool either. From Wei Yu's words, he can tell that Sai Jian also came to Beiyan. Wei Yu is Sai Jian's personal bodyguard. He came to Beiyan. How could that person not come?

Mo Yan frowned, shook off Wei Yu, turned around and headed towards the general's mansion, he wanted to protect Baili Nian's safety!But just after reaching another roof, Wei Yu behind him grabbed his sleeves tightly. Under the moonlight, Wei Yu had a pretty face.

"Ha, I caught up with you this time! It seems that my hard work of lightness kung fu was not in vain!"

Mo Yan had a cold face, "Let go! Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"

Wei Yu laughed and said, "Master Mo, I also came all the way from Taoyang City to Beiyan, old friends meet, why don't you invite me to have a drink together, tonight is New Year's Eve, how can you bear to let old friends hang out?" On this roof?"

Mo Yan clasped his wrist that was holding onto the hem of his clothes with one hand, then tore it off and raised it with his backhand. His face was always gloomy, and his tone of voice was extremely cold, "You and I are not old friends, I have no friends."

Grabbing Wei Yu's wrist and pushing it hard, Wei Yu almost fell off the roof. Mo Yan held his long sword in front of him with a cold face.

"Don't follow me anymore. It would not be polite to deny me. My sword doesn't mind letting you die here."

The smile on the corner of Wei Yu's mouth dissipated, and he frowned slightly, looking at Mo Yan, "You are really as ruthless as your master."

"What's the matter with you!"

Mo Yan glanced coldly, turned his head and walked in the direction of the general's mansion, but just two steps away, a chill came from his neck, he stopped, his face became even worse, a cold sword was pressed against his neck, only If you move, you will die.

Wei Yu behind Mo Yan held up his long sword, and his eyes gradually darkened a bit. He didn't want to do this, but he had to.

"I admit that martial arts are indeed not as good as yours, and you may not be able to take a few swords in a fight, but I also have my mission, and I will never let you go back. Since you and I are tit for tat, then kill me and go!"

Mo Yan frowned, the sword in his hand was already tightly clenched, as long as he turned his head, he could understand Wei Yu.

The bright moon is like a plate, and the moonlight is cold and cool, shining on the roof, making the figure a little smaller. Under the bright moon, the figure is clear and tiny.After freezing for a while, the cold sword was unsheathed, and the two shadows began to fight under the bright jade-like moon.

The sword was on the verge of breaking out, and the bright moonlight was missed.

……

The bright moon in the General's Mansion seemed a little far away.

Under the west window of Chaoming Courtyard, Baili Nian is holding a vermilion bird pen in his hand, outlining the vast landscape, the candlelight flickers suddenly, Baili Nian suddenly raises his eyes, and seeing the flickering candlelight, his eyes gradually darken.

He didn't look up, his hands were still sketching the painting, and he put down the Vermilion Bird Pen after the painting was completed.

"On New Year's Eve, you should go to Qiangma King City, not Beiyan." Baili Nian said flatly.

There was a sound from the plum grove under the window outside the house. The plum blossoms were particularly beautiful under the moonlight. A figure walked by, bringing down a few red plums, and was also stained with plum fragrance. With this light plum fragrance, the figure leaped into the house from the window.

It was still snowing outside, but Sai Jian was only wearing unlined clothes. After entering the house, Baili Nian looked up at him. There were a lot of snowflakes on his head, and his shoulders and body were covered with snowflakes. Sai Jian had never been restrained, even this On a dry and cold winter day, she was dressed so simply, her face was flushed from the cold.

Since entering the room, Sai Jian stood there blankly, with a tense face, neither speaking nor showing any expression, as if angry.

After a long time, Baili Nian picked up a white velvet cloak and threw it on him.

As soon as the cloak hit Sai Jian's body, his expression couldn't hold back. He grabbed the cloak of Baili Nian, which still had a light fragrance on it, and Sai Jian quickly wrapped it around his body. In front of twisting.

"Hey, it's really cold tonight, my face is so cold that my face is numb."

Baili Nian looked calm, turned around and sat on the soft mat by the stove, and added a few pieces of charcoal.Sai Jian also hurriedly followed, sitting next to Baili Nian, warming his hands on the stove, and rushed to Beiyan day and night, it was really cold.

Baili Nian raised his eyes and glanced at him. The snow on his head had already melted and turned into drops of water dripping down the tip of his hair. The eyelashes were covered with water drops. He must have endured a lot of cold during the journey. .

Baili Nian picked up the wine pot on the stove and poured a glass of the simmering wine to Sai Jian. As soon as Sai Jian took the wine glass, he beamed with joy, his face full of smiles, as if there had never been an unpleasant parting between the two of them. .

"How does Nian'er know that this king is greedy for your wine?" Sai Jian held the wine glass and drank it down.

Baili Nian added another glass for him, "After drinking this jug of wine, the king will go back to Qiangzhu."

When Sai Jian heard this, his smiling face disappeared suddenly, and he frowned, "This king has just been here for a while, are you going to drive me away?"

"Tonight is New Year's Eve," Baili Nian glanced out of the window, and it was almost midnight, "The new year is coming soon, the king is not in Qiangzhu Palace, nor is he in Taoyang City, what are you doing in Beiyan? Taoyang City is now But it’s not entirely in the hands of the king.”

Sai Jian took the jug in Baili Nian's hand, poured himself a glass of wine angrily, and drank it down, "This king knows the situation of Taoyang City, and will guard Taoyang. One day, Qiang Hao will be strong and strong." Don’t lose to Bei Yan! The soldiers led by this king will definitely not lose to Yu Wenyang! This king will guard Tao Yang and become the overlord of the Central Plains!”

Sai Jian looked at Baili Nian, with some anticipation in his eyes, Baili Nian raised his eyes to meet his, "What do you want to say, Your Majesty?"

Sai Jian grabbed Baili Nian's hand, "Nian'er, let me go back to Qiangzhu with this king! This king will have a strong country and strong generals. If Nian'er really can't let go of the old hatred, this king can help you."

Baili's eyelashes trembled slightly, a little moved, but it was only for a moment, and his face became cold again.

He pushed Sai Jian's hand away, "What can your lord help me? Attack Nanming in the south? Or fight Xi Zhao to the death, or lead troops into Beiyan? If Qiang Zhuo is facing Beiyan, hit the stone with an egg."

"Twister!"

Sai Jian frowned, he never thought that Bai Li Nian could say such unfeeling words, Sai Jian is not a person who hates the world, he does not understand Bai Li Nian's national hatred and family feud, but if Bai Li Nian is determined, he is willing to She wanted to help each other, but she didn't expect him to say such cold words.

"If Nian'er stays in the general's mansion, will he be able to get what he wants? Isn't Beiyan one of the three kingdoms that destroyed Da Jiang back then? This king really doesn't understand why Nian'er stays here? What exactly is he going to do?" ? Are you going to destroy Nanming, or fight for the world?"

He never understood Baili Nian's thoughts, if he harbored hatred for the Three Kingdoms, why he didn't want to stay by his side, Qiang Zhuo didn't have any hatred with Da Jiang.

Baili Nian lowered his eyes, picked up his wine glass, and took a sip.

"You go back to Taoyang City, just guard Taoyang, and wait and see about the Central Plains."

"I won't go!" Sai Jian played a rogue again, and he sat down next to Baili Nian, "The king came to Beiyan from a long distance, so it's fine if you don't go with the king, I don't think I've even looked at you yet." What, are you going to kick someone out?!"

Sai Jian pursed his lips, took a sneak peek at Baili Nian, and suddenly got the courage to grab Baili Nian, clasped him tightly, and hugged him in his arms.

"My king won't leave anyway!"

Baili Nian frowned at this move, he was very displeased, he raised his hand subconsciously, intending to push Sai Jian away, but he lowered it after lifting it up, allowing him to be arrogant.

"The wind and snow along the way, my body hasn't warmed up yet? Nian'er, don't drive me away, okay?"

Sai Jian's face was buried in Baili Nian's hair, like a child acting like a baby, but Sai Jian was also really cold, his frozen hands were still cold at this moment, even colder than Baili Nian's hands .

Baili Nian naturally also noticed his coldness.

Frowning, Baili Nian's face was still indifferent, but he didn't say anything else, and he opened his mouth after a long time.

"The night sky is clear tonight. Although there is light snow falling, there are no dark clouds. Tomorrow should be a warm and sunny day." Baili Nian looked out the window.

Hearing this, Sai Jian didn't understand. He blinked his eyes and thought for a long time. After thinking of something, he straightened his body immediately, and his brows fainted with a smile.

"Nian'er is saying... tonight, let me stay here??"

Baili's face turned pale, and he pursed his lips tightly, "Don't come to Beiyan in the future."

Sai Jian stared at Baili Nian in front of him, still a little dazed, "Then tonight..."

……

New Year's Eve should always be a day of companionship.
