The meeting in the alley of the town in the previous life was the last time he and Min Shao spoke.

In the many years after that, Wen Xuan didn't see him very much, and most of the time he only heard rumors about him from other people, such as withdrawn, serious and paranoid, moody, and so on.It doesn't match the image in his impression at all.

It wasn't that Wen Xuan didn't think about going to see him at that time, but he could only think about it.

He is the Sixth Highness of Dongjing, and he has no real power in his hands. Most of the time, he can only stay in Dongjing peacefully. How can he have any reason to meet the King of Yuyang?At most, I just heard some gossip from other people's mouths, and then I secretly figured it out when I went back, thinking that the original rumors were not reliable at all.

It was after a long time that he was finally convinced that those were not rumors, but the truth.Min Shao has indeed become very different from the person in his impression, year after year, the distance from him is getting further and further away.

It's the same even in this life.

Min Yinghan hid too many secrets from him, both about himself and Banguo.

The lamps in the hall flickered brightly, and the wine in his arms was half empty again.

Wen Xuan rubbed his forehead, closed his eyes, thinking drowsily... How could he be so easily carried away and believe what Min Yinghan said?

He clearly knew what happened in the last life, no matter it was for Dong Jing or Wen Xiangjing, he shouldn't have come back to Yuyang with Min Shao.

He even made a bet without knowing it... It's just too ridiculous for him.

Wen Xuan frowned, the strength of the wine rose, his mind became more and more heavy, and he didn't even notice that Min Shao behind him had stood up.

He only felt that there was a shadow covering his eyes, as if it was blocked by something tall. He opened his eyes and raised his head, and saw Min Shao standing in front of him.

"What if I say otherwise?"

Min Shao spoke with a deep voice.

He was very close, his eyes fixed on Wen Xuan, his brows were stern and deep, and under the reflection of the candlelight, he was inexplicably flustered.

Under the pressure, Wen Xuan couldn't help but want to back away, but there was already a table behind her, so she had to hold back, "What... what?"

Min Shao didn't answer, but asked again: "Why do you think so?"

"Otherwise, what should I think?" Wen Xuan asked back, and said with restraint, "I know you saved me and treated me well, but the little friendship between us is not as good as the great cause of the state. If you have to choose another If it's one, I know what you'll choose...so I can't gamble with anything else."

"And..." He suddenly remembered as he spoke, and took out something from his arms with his lowered eyes.

When Min Shao saw something like that, the color of his eyes changed, and his eyebrows frowned slightly——

It was the rabbit wooden sculpture that Wen Xuan threw away by himself a few years ago, but he found it back later and kept it in the study in the palace.

Unexpectedly, Wen Xuan saw it.

Wen Xuan put the two wooden carvings on the table, and said in a deep voice, "I know you won't tell, so I won't ask any more... Thank you for remembering the friendship between us. If there is a chance in the future, I will will pay back."

Min Shao looked at him with deep eyes, "So, you won't believe me no matter what, just so sure that I will be bad for Dongjing?"

Wen Xuan didn't make a sound.

"...That's fine." Min Shao's face turned cold, and he didn't say anything else.

The candles in the room were flickering. After a while, he suddenly changed the subject and said, "I remember something."

"If I remember correctly, when you were poisoned, you once said that you wanted to tell me something, but you were afraid that you would lose your mind and regret it if you said it. You have to think it over before deciding whether to tell me... So now, have you figured it out?"

Wen Xuan didn't expect that he still remembered, but was stunned by the question.He suddenly recalled the original thought in his mind, coupled with the urging of alcohol, facing Min Shao, his heart beat inevitably, "I..."

He felt a little flustered for a moment, and it took him a long time to suppress the chaotic mood, and replied with patience: "Thought it out... I regret it, so there is nothing to say now."

"Also..." He clenched his fingers in his sleeves, and said slowly, "I didn't think much about that bet, and now I regret it..."

"Leave it void."

Min Shao looked at him silently for a while.

After a long time, his eyes were slightly cold, and he said solemnly: "Okay."

"In that case, you can go."

"..."

Wen Xuan opened his mouth, his eyes changed slightly.

He didn't expect Min Shao to be so happy, but his heart felt like it had been chiseled, and he felt a little uncomfortable.

After a while, he closed his eyes, his throat seemed to be blocked by something, he only said "good", and put down the wine jar in his hand.

Sure enough... things are right and people are wrong, and things are right and wrong. Once you understand some things, you should let them go, and there is nothing to be nostalgic about.

The spirit of wine gradually came up, Wen Xuan's eyes were shaking a little, and he was not stable just standing, he didn't speak any more, frowned slightly, still bypassed Min Shao, didn't look any more, and walked straight towards the gate of the palace up.

Now it's winter, and the cold wind is bleak in the middle of the night, the crabapple branches in the courtyard are blown uncontrollably, and the petals are falling all over the courtyard.

The moment she opened the door, Wen Xuan felt lost in her heart.

It's so late... where should he go?How to go back?

As soon as the hall door opened a gap, the chilly wind poured into the hall, blowing the candles to keep flickering.

However, before he could go out, a palm behind him suddenly pressed over, the arm missed his face, and slammed the temple door shut.

Immediately afterwards, Min Shao's voice sounded from behind him: "There is one more thing..."

"I've thought about it carefully, I might as well let you know before leaving."

"What..." Wen Xuan frowned slightly, and just turned around, before she could finish speaking, her shoulder was suddenly pressed hard, her back bumped against the closed palace door, and the shadow in front of her fell down. Suddenly opened his eyes wide.

Min Shao grabbed his skirt, without thinking for a second, and kissed him forcefully.

Wen Xuan only felt that her lips were warm, soft and hot, and she was stunned.

too suddenly……

He couldn't react at all, the wine he drank seemed to be evaporated by the high temperature in an instant, his cheeks suddenly became red, and his heart was beating violently, almost breaking his chest.

Wen Xuan didn't respond for a long time, but Min Shao kissed him even more deeply, his arms wrapped around his waist, and the scorching breath entangled together, almost melting him.

The alcohol quickly rushed to the top of his head with the temperature, Wen Xuan's mind was blurred, he was hugged too tightly, the touch between his lips and teeth was too hot, and he couldn't think about anything.

Not long after, the embarrassing feet became weak and he couldn't even stand firmly.

It wasn't until a long time passed that Wen Xuan finally thought of pushing him away, panting with her head down in a dizzy state, her eyes were moist.

He leaned his back against the palace door, his legs slipped limply, his mind was still blank.

"...Wen Xuan?"

Min Shao's hoarse voice sounded above his head.Wen Xuan's eyes were still somewhat confused and astonished, she didn't answer, she just pursed her lips, her face was flushed, she buried her face in her knees very slowly, and remained motionless.

It looked like he was trying to hide himself.

The room was silent for a long time.

After a while, Min Shao slowly squatted down in front of him, and said in a low voice:

"It's windy and cold tonight, how about going another day?"
