Husband is a piece of cloud cake

The twilight is all together, the golden black is falling to the west, and the deep and twilight purple enveloped Floating Cloud City.Amidst the sound of rumbling drums, the gates of the big and small fangs in the city were closed one by one, and the lights of every house were lit.The moon was bright and the stars were thin, the street was finally silent, and Lu Jing also jumped up from the roof.

Crossing the streets and alleys, he deftly dodged the night watchman Wuhou, as light as a bird.The moonlight flowing on the worry-free lake looks like ice and snow from afar.The willow branches along the bank cover the waves of the lake, and Liuyunhou's mansion is there.

As soon as he saw the lantern sticking out from under the cornice, Lu Jing's heart became quiet.On the lantern is the coat of arms of the Xue clan, Jade Bell Mountain, Wuyou Lake, Sun and Moon Pagoda, all these things that Zi Yang had told him were displayed in front of him one by one.If the accident did not happen two years ago, Liuyun County would be what it is today.If this is true, when Lu Jing came to Liuyun County, Zi Yang would treat him as a guest of honor, as he himself said, when he heard the news of his arrival, he would greet him with all his feet, right?

But today, there is no such thing as a warm welcome.Lu Jing could only climb up the tree like a thief, and use the jade ring to quietly look for Zi Yang.Through Yuhuan, he can see through the houses and rocks in the water mirror world, and he finally found the shadow of the eldest son.The eldest son in white fur was standing behind a moon-shaped window, playing with a star crown.

Lu Jing's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly hid in a tree closest to the house.He saw Xue Nanyu's eyes drooping, his complexion was paler than last time, and his lips were tightly pursed.While turning Xingguan, Xue Nanyu was arranging and recording with counting chips. The chips on the table were densely packed, obviously he had been counting for a long time.

He is stargazing.In the past, the princes and counties sent the young master to Yingdu to study in the Imperial Academy, and the Imperial Academy assigned them different courses in addition to their studies according to their respective aptitudes; Xue Nanyu, who had a bright mind, was personally awarded the star-gazing technique by the Taishi.This esoteric technique originated from the Wen family, and the son of Liuyun County was able to teach this art of stargazing, which shows the imperial court's win over the King Liang's faction.

Lu Jing himself had heard Xue Nanyu talk about stargazing more than once.He said that the stars come from the gods, and the direction of the stars foreshadows the laws of all things, and he will deduce them when encountering major events.And Lu Jing's last and most profound stargazing to Xue Nanyu was at Shangxiao Peak.

——Senior Brother, Senior Brother Xue, I heard that Liuyun County sent someone to pick you up! ?

At that time, he was practicing swords in the sword practice field, and immediately came to him without thinking about changing clothes after hearing the news.Xue Nanyu stood on the stargazing platform, put down his counting chips and slowly looked towards him.The night in Xiaofeng was extremely dark that night, only a fiery red star shone brightly.

—Brother, is it true?

Seeing that he didn't answer, Lu Jing became more and more anxious.Xue Nanyu smiled wryly.

——Yes, Junior Brother Lu.Brother can't come out to congratulate you on your coronation ceremony.

After he finished speaking, he counted the chips and began to gather them one by one.If Lu Jing is careful enough, he will see that his movements are more hesitant than usual, and obviously there are waves in his heart.But Lu Jing just stared at his face and asked almost beggingly.

——Senior brother, postpone it for a few days, stay for a while, and leave in three days, okay?The master will come back three days later, he once said that he will give you the Secret Code of Guiyuan when he returns from Yunyou.

Since being selected into Shangxiao Peak five years ago, Lu Jing studied under the Sword School, and Xue Nanyu studied the Medicine School, both of them are leaders in their respective schools; Master especially favors these two disciples.The master said that Xue Nanyu was destined for a catastrophe, and he couldn't solve it without the ancient Guiyuan secret code, so he went out to look for it.And three days later was also the day when Lu Jing became crowned, he planned to tell Xue Nanyu his thoughts after that.In the past, he had also vaguely mentioned it, but Xue Nanyu always avoided it.Xue Nanyu always said that Lu Jing was still a child, even though Lu Jing was only half a year younger than him, even though Lu Jing was already taller than him.Since he evaded the matter by saying that he has not yet performed the coronation ceremony, after he is coronated, this should no longer be an excuse, right?

But Xue Nanyu just shook his head.

——The king will leave Yingdu in a few days, and my father Hou Xiushu called me to go back together immediately.This father's order cannot be violated.

He was talking about King Liang.Liuyun County is a territory of Liang State, and Liuyunhou is an important minister of Liang Wang, and has been assisting Yingdu with Liang Wang in Yingdu for the past few years.Talking about the height of the king's father's fate, Lu Jing knew that this parting could not be changed, so he turned to ask him pitifully.

——Brother, when are you coming back?

--return?

Xue Nanyu smiled lowly, caressing the star crown, and sighed softly.

——According to the astrology, there will be major events in the east, and I will not be able to avoid the collapse of the nest.Junior brother Lu, there is always a banquet in the world...

But his words were immediately interrupted by Lu Jing.The man with the sword came over a few steps and grabbed his hand firmly, his face flushed red.

——what's the big deal?Senior brother knew that there was going to be a big event, why didn't he stay at Shangxiao Peak?

King Liang wanted to leave after his son died without knowing why, and Lu Jing also knew about this from his brother's family letter.King Liang has accumulated prestige for a long time, and returning to the country full of resentment this time may not be a good thing. Hearing Xue Nanyu say "I can't escape it", Lu Jing is even more unwilling to let him go.

He must have looked stupid at the time, because Xue Nanyu immediately laughed.The head of Liuyun county had crooked eyebrows, which perfectly concealed the bitterness in his eyes.

——Junior Brother Lu, although the destiny is hard to violate, it is not without room for mediation.As the young master of Liuyun County, how can I hide in Shangxiao Peak with my own safety in mind?Junior Brother, this star map was drawn by my Observatory over the years, and I originally planned to ask Senior Brother Cui to pass it on for me.Now that you are here, let me give you a gift in advance as an adult.I promise you that you will climb Yuzhong Mountain and swim in Wuyou Lake in the future, and you will come back to fulfill it when you have time.

He gently pushed Lu Jing away, handed over a sandalwood box, turned and left.Lu Jing chased after a few steps, and said loudly when Xue Nanyu was about to step out of the observatory.

—Brother, don’t go yet!Me, I still have a lot to say to you!

His face and ears burned, and he decided to say those long-held words tonight.Xue Nanyu also stopped.

——Junior Brother Lu, you don't have to say it.I already knew what you wanted to say.

The voice trembled slightly, it was not at all like the forever calm and even a little arrogant Senior Brother Xue that he was familiar with.He looked back, as if he wanted to say a lot to Lu Jing, his lips moved, and his eyes were slightly red.But after stamping his feet, Xue Nanyu still left.Only the shape of his mouth before turning around made Lu Jing ponder over it anxiously for a long time in the later years.

Is it "I too" or "Mo Nian"?

This question has no answer.Xue Nanyu had disappeared from his life since then, and when he met again, it was the fatal fire, and now the indistinguishable water mirror Floating Cloud City.

So did Zi Yang already know what was going to happen later?Otherwise, why would he keep pushing himself away?

Sitting on the willow tree and recalling the past, Lu Jing was heartbroken.The green firefly grass sways gently in the wind beside him, this kind of parasitic vine unique to the mirror world will always have a faint fluorescent light at night.He silently looked into the courtyard, Xue Nanyu behind the window was still calculating.He seemed to be in great trouble, and his expression became more and more anxious.

What is he counting?The night is so deep, will staying up like this make me tired?

Feeling a little uneasy, Lu Jing turned the jade ring to see those calculations clearly, but saw the counting chip in Xue Nanyu's hand suddenly fall to the ground, and he also fell on his back.

Startled, Lu Jing immediately turned over and fled away.His movements were so fast, when he hugged Xue Nanyu, Xue Nanyu hadn't even completely fallen to the ground.Lu Jing held him in his arms and called out in a low voice.

"Master...Young Master? Eldest Young Master!?"

But Xue Nanyu didn't answer him, he just closed his eyes tightly.His heartbeat and pulse were very weak, but his breathing was extremely rapid.Lu Jing was busy looking for pills on him—Xue Nanyu was born with a disease, and he used to take his medicines in the Imperial College and Shangxiao Peak, never leaving his body.

But after turning it over, Lu Jing found that there was nothing on him.Reasonably, he didn't care too much, and hurriedly gave Xue Nanyu one of the master's elixir taken out from Yuzhong Mountain, and instilled inner breath into his chest.

"Brother, wake up."

He whispered in Xue Nanyu's ear, cold sweat dripped from his forehead.Xue Nanyu's comatose appearance is too much like sleeping in the Jianmu bud room.Lu Jing went to Jianmuzhong to visit him countless times, seeing his ignorance, touching his cold skin, felt like his heart was being torn apart.But even though Xue Nanyu fell into eternal sleep in the Jianmubao room, he knew that his soul was actually alive in the water mirror.Zi Yang followed the trajectory of his life, and lived safely in Liuyun County, which had not been attacked by war. This was Lu Jing's only consolation.But how could he have thought that Xue Nanyu, who entered the water mirror, was more weak and melancholy than outside the water mirror?

He can't accept losing Ziyang, never.

The elixir from Shangxiao Peak was tyrannical, and Xue Nanyu's breathing and heartbeat quickly calmed down.He should have also heard Lu Jing's call, and murmured in a low voice.

"Son... Ann..."

He whispered.Lu Jing's arm trembled, and he held his breath and stared at him.Xue Nanyu's thick black and slender eyelashes trembled slightly. After all, he was unable to wake up and fell into a coma.Lu Jing waited for a while, gritted his teeth, carried Xue Nanyu to the low couch in the room, covered him with a cloak, and then jumped out.

Snapped!

He flew a stone from the willow tree and hit the house, the vase in the house shattered, and the tiles scattered on the ground.The attendants outside the house were also alarmed, and Cai Mo was the first to push the door in.They surrounded Xue Nanyu, and soon realized that he was not in the right condition, so they quickly summoned a doctor.

The doctors rushed in one after another, and Lu Jing relaxed a little bit.He hid in the tree and watched the people in the Hou's Mansion busy. After seeing Xue Nanyu finally fully awake after midnight, he was completely relieved.

After this night, Lu Jing was filled with sorrow and joy, his heart was exhausted and heavy, thinking that since Xue Nanyu had woken up, he could quietly leave before dawn.But when he was about to stand up, he found——

—a pair of hands suddenly grabbed his feet under the tree.
