Jincheng flower hour

Bamboo shoots sit on the hill of bamboo shoots, and the bamboo shoots are gnawing on the tender bamboo shoots dug up by the guards. They are in a very happy mood, and they don't care about being surrounded by people at all.Not only the four guards were staring at it, but also the artisans and the children nearby.

Because it is Gong Zihong's "precious beast", the guards take care of it and prevent the bear from poking it with a branch.

Since early in the morning, the bamboo shoot hadn't seen Zhuang Yang, but it didn't miss it too much, grabbed a bamboo shoot, skillfully used the bear's paw and teeth, peeled off the bamboo skin, and ate the sweet and tender bamboo shoot inside.

Liu Hong and Zhuang Yang rode to Luwei Lake with two guards by their side.

The wooden house Liu Hong built in Luwei Lake is still there, and the wooden boat sank in the clear lake, covered with moss, where small fish and big fish play.

A few white waterfowls by the lake are either hovering in the air, or appearing in the reeds, and the reeds are swinging in the wind and rustling.

Liu Hong was fishing in front of the wooden house and brought a small wooden bucket to hold the fish.Zhuang Yang was by Liu Hong's side, and his eyes fell on the waterfowl. Among the hunting waterfowl, he recognized a gray crane and saw it soaring between the blue sky and white clouds.

Liu Hong took up the line and caught a fat mandarin fish. The fresh fish hit the water with its tail, and the white water splashed in the sun.The mandarin fish struggled to escape, but Liu Hong caught it calmly, unhooked it, and said with a smile, "Be good and catch it."

Erlang likes to eat steamed mandarin fish, this one is so plump, it just happens to be steamed for Erlang to eat.

Liu Hong grabbed the fish body, Zhuang Yang picked up the wooden bucket, scooped some water into the lake, and handed it over.Liu Hong slowly put the fish into the barrel, and Zhuang Yang took a bamboo cover to cover the barrel to prevent the fish from jumping out of the barrel.

"Catch another tail."

Liu Hong looked down at the fish swimming sadly under the bamboo cover, he looked up and smiled at Zhuang Yang.

The two looked at each other and smiled, Zhuang Yang always had a smile on his face, as pleasant as the autumn wind slowly coming by the lake.

The two accompanying guards were left far away in the pine forest by the lake. They could see the two people in front of the wooden house, but they couldn't see them clearly.Beside them were four horses, two of which were handsome white horses, grazing leisurely.

Liu Hong continued to fish, Zhuang Yang and Liu Hong sat back to back, snuggled up to Liu Hong, listening to the sound of wind and forest.

The time spent together like this is precious and will never be there again.

Liu Hong quickly caught the second mandarin fish and put it in the barrel.Two mandarin fishes were enough for them to have a good meal. They were not greedy. Liu Hong collected the fishing rod and Zhuang Yang carried the wooden bucket. Liu Hong said, "Erlang, I'll do it." Then, the two walked towards the guards.

Both the barrel and the fishing rod were tied to the horses, and Liu Hong and Zhuang Yang rode along the river.Walking to a cliff, Liu Hong suddenly stopped, pointed to a cluster of flowers on the riverside and said, "Erlang, is that an orchid?" Zhuang Yang nodded, and whispered, "That's Jianlan."

"Erro, do you like it?"

Liu Hong asked Zhuang Yang, his sleeves were rolled up, ready to move.

"Don't go there."

Zhuang Yang said anxiously, how could he not know what Liu Hong was thinking, the river was turbulent, and crossing the river was dangerous.

Of course I like it, this flower is elegant and beautiful, even Liu Hong, who doesn't know how to appreciate flowers, pays attention to it at a glance.

Liu Hong listened to the order and didn't dare to think again.

Zhuang Yang remembered that iris flower was picked on this cliff, and there are many flowers on the cliff.

After so many years, this person is still like this, in order to please him, he will not hesitate to take risks.

The two returned to the bamboo hut, the sun was warming, and the people around the bamboo shoots had dispersed, and the bamboo shoots lay in the pile of bamboo shoots, and fell asleep happily.

Liu Hong was busy in the kitchen, picking up the fish, dissecting it, washing it, putting it in a steamer, and steaming it in the oven.

In terms of cooking, Liu Hongyuan is better than Zhuang Yang, but his cooking skills are only average.

During the two days together, the guards have long been familiar with Gongzihong's various civilian behaviors. They saw Gongzihong making fences and surrounding the chicken coop; they saw Gongzihong himself grilling meat and fish.

The guards are loyal to Liu Hong and will not pass on what they have seen.

At night, the craftsmen who built the house stopped working, and Liu Hong and Zhuang Yang drank wine and ate fish in the corridor of the bamboo building.Under the starlight, the two talked softly.Downstairs, Ayila stopped the bamboo shoots, and the fine silk was holding a plate of batter.The bamboo shoots tried to pounce on Xijuan's legs, but Xijuan was so petite that she fell down as soon as she pounced, so she had to dodge in a hurry. Fortunately, Ah Yi came to help.

"No matter how naughty you are, I won't give you batter."

Bamboo shoots were beaten by Ah Yixun, they didn't care at all, and happily ate the batter.Xijuan stood aside, watching each person and smiling.

Upstairs, Zhuang Yang served Liu Hongsheng the third bowl of rice, thinking that General Liu was tall and mighty, capable of carrying a tripod, so his appetite was really not small.

"Erlang is so skinny, besides steamed mandarin fish and barbecue, what else do you like to eat?"

After taking the bowl from Zhuang Yang, Liu Hong touched Zhuang Yang's slender, fleshless fingers.

"I'm not thin."

Zhuang Yang is not picky about food, but he doesn't eat much.He was very idle, without work, and had nowhere to use his excess energy.

"When Erlang undressed, I looked carefully..."

Liu Hong pressed against Zhuang Yang's neck, whispering in his ear, and he hugged Zhuang Yang's slender waist.

"you……"

Zhuang Yang put a glass of wine to Liu Hong's lips, not letting him continue.Liu Hong smiled lowly, drank the wine, and leaned over to kiss Zhuang Yang with the smell of wine.

The corridor was dim, so no one would notice. Zhuang Yang was held in Liu Hong's arms, and the two kissed silently.

That night, Zhuang Yang was playing the piano in the study, while Liu Hong was lying on the mat and listening.The bamboo shoot bleats downstairs, as if it also knows how to play the piano, and responds.

The sound of the piano was originally melodious, but for some reason, it stopped abruptly.

In the past two days, Liu Hong came to Zhuli not because he had business to do, but because he was taking time off.Most of Linqiong's affairs are done by Huo Yuqi. Liu Hong knows Mr. Huo's ability, but many things still need to be handled by him personally, and the time he can stay in Zhuli is quite limited.

Early the next morning, Liu Hong woke up, and Zhuang Yang was still sleeping peacefully in his arms.Liu Hong tried to get away quietly, but Zhuang Yang had already opened his eyes to look at him before he got on the bed.

"Erlang, I woke you up."

Seeing that he was sleeping soundly, he woke up all at once.

"No, I'm awake."

Zhuang Yang smiled slightly, he missed Liu Hong's warm embrace, but actually woke up for a while.

Another day, every day the two of them spend together is particularly short.

Liu Hong still helped Zhuang Yang comb his hair and put on his clothes. He obviously enjoyed serving Zhuang Yang.He especially likes to wrap Zhuang Yang's belt and buckle it with a hook. At this time, he will be delighted that this person belongs to him.

It doesn't belong to anyone, it's just for him.

Also combing Liu Hong's hair and dressing, tying a knot with a hook, Zhuang Yang's heart is heavy, he knows that the agreement between the two of them is coming to an end, and he will break it.

This agreement was fatal to Liu Hong.

On this day, I came here without any illness, and it was at noon.Wu Jiben followed Liu Hong to Linqiong, but was left alone by Liu Hong in Linqiong.

Wuji rode in a carriage, followed by a group of guards.His carriage is gorgeous and attracts attention as soon as it enters the bamboo.

The people in Zhuli knew that Liu Hong, the son of King Han now, lived in Zhuli, and Dachun, as a general, also led troops to garrison in Zhuli.I thought it was defending against the enemy, but I never thought it was because of the banker Erlang.

Wuji came, but the people in Zhuli didn't know his identity. Several children followed the carriage to the Zhulou of the farmer. When they saw Wuji get off the carriage, they were shocked when they saw a big tapir.

"Brother, is this a big bear?"

Wuji pointed at the bamboo shoots with a frightened expression.The bamboo shoots were sitting on the ground, gnawing on the bamboo shoots, showing contempt for the rich and powerful.

"It's a tapir."

Liu Hong took Wuji upstairs, and when Wuji passed the bamboo shoot, he was trembling, but the bamboo shoot focused on the food and didn't bother to pay attention to the stranger.

Wuji is fond of reading and knows about tapirs, but this is the first time he has seen a living thing.

The two brothers entered the study and handed a letter to Liu Hong Wuji.Liu Hong opened it and recognized Huo Yuqi's handwriting. The letter was very long, so he read it roughly.

In Huo Yuqi's letter, he told Liu Hong not to stay in Zhuli any longer and to go back earlier. The envoy of the King of Han came yesterday, probably to spy on him.

Huo Qiong naturally knew why Liu Hong went to Zhuli.

"Brother, is there anything urgent?"

Seeing Liu Hong frowning, Wuji asked with concern.

Wuji is still young, he just came with the army, he doesn't have any position in the army, so naturally he doesn't have access to documents.

"There is nothing urgent, but I will go back today."

Liu Hong got up, folded up the letter, and put it in his arms.

I heard that there was nothing important, so I was relieved of my illness.He chatted with his brother in the study, then ran downstairs to see the big tapir.

Although I am afraid, I am also curious. This animal with a round face, short legs, and sitting like a human is really novel.

Zhuang Yang saw that Wuji came in a hurry and went to the study with Liu Hong, so he knew that Wuji was here to deliver a message.Liu Hong stayed in Zhuli for three days, and it was time to leave.

This was expected, and Zhuang Yang didn't follow up to find out what was going on.He was walking by the pool alone, and when he went downstairs without any problems, Zhuang Yang happened to walk up to the bamboo shoots and inspect them.

When the bamboo shoots were first found, they were not in good condition and may have been starved.In the past two days, he ate and ate nonsense, his sunken belly became rounded obviously, and even his hair became much shinier.

"Zhuang Sheng, doesn't it bite?"

Wuji saw Zhuang Yang touching the head of the bamboo shoot, and the bamboo shoot was very docile.

"If it is provoked, it will bite."

Zhuang Yang smiled, he liked Wuji very much, and felt that his temperament was similar to that of Aping.

"Then can I touch it?"

Seeing Zhuang Yang nodding, Wuji stretched out a hand with thin skin and tender flesh, and touched the head of the bamboo shoot in a panic.It turns out that the hair is hard, not soft at all, I don't think so.

This touch attracted the bamboo shoot's attention, it discarded the bamboo shoot, raised its bear paw and threw Wuji to the ground.

"Bamboo shoots!"

Zhuang Yang pulled it, but the bamboo shoot was very strong, and Zhuang Yang had nothing to do with it.Wuji was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he didn't dare to struggle vigorously, so he weakly pushed the bear's head of the bamboo shoot with his arm.

Suddenly the big tapir was mentioned, reluctantly let go of Wuji, it hung upright on Liu Hong's wrist.

"Go over there and play."

Liu Hong carried the bamboo shoots to the pool and put them down.As if the bamboo shoot could understand human speech, it shook its fat round buttocks and walked towards the bamboo mountain path.

In the afternoon, Wuji took a pot of batter to feed the bamboo shoots, followed by a group of guards.Bamboo shoots walked slowly towards the food, showing no interest in the group of nervous and strangely dressed people, and lowered their heads to lick its batter.

Upstairs, Zhuang Yang put on the armor for Liu Hong, tied the rope and put on the helmet.

"Erlang, after I return to Beijing, I will write you a letter. When the world is unified and the country is divided, I will come to you."

Liu Hong held onto Zhuang Yang's hand with firm eyes.

Even if Zhuang Yang has not allowed him to do this, he has made up his mind.

"No, I won't meet you."

Zhuang Yang withdrew his hand and tied the sword around Liu Hong's waist.His fingers left Liu Hong's warm waist, trembling slightly, but his expression was resolute.

"Erlang, don't reject me, I will come to you after one year."

Liu Hong embraced Zhuang Yang with great strength, as if he wanted to rub Zhuang Yang into his flesh and blood.

"Hiro, let's go."

Zhuang Yang broke free from Liu Hong's embrace, and he refused to meet Liu Hong.If I want you to die for me, I would rather be separated than see each other.
