There was a sound of falling on the window lattice, and the black-feathered bird landed on the window sill of the medicine hut, raising its head and chirping a few times.

Qin Zhao looked back, put the teacup in front of Du Yue, and walked over to take down the secret letter.

Du Yue put down the list of medicines in his hand, stepped over the herbs hanging on the ground, leaned his head over and asked, "What is it written on?"

"Senior Brother ordered that we investigate the attitude of the courtiers who remained in the court towards the alliance with the Xiongnu." Qin Zhao folded the letter and put it away.

"Is there even a need to ask?" Du Yue said decisively, "It must not be let out!"

Qin Zhao looked at him and nodded, "Brother also means the same thing."

Du Yue was stunned for a moment, and then guessed the original intention of Chu Mingyun's letter.He shyly withdrew his gaze, leaned over to put the medicinal materials back into the box, and Qin Zhao continued to help in silence. His pair of bony hands held the sword for many years, but he was very proficient in classifying the medicinal materials.

Du Yue endured and endured, but finally couldn't help but said: "Hey, Qin Zhao, what kind of person do you think... Chu Mingyun is?"

Qin Zhao didn't pause, thought for a while, and asked, "What do you think?"

"I think... I..." Du Yue scratched his head, "How many years have I been friends with the surname Chu? I thought I knew it before, but now I don't know it anymore."

"How to say?" Qin Zhao asked.

"That's right..." Du Yue sighed heavily, pulled the stool and sat down, and told Qin Zhao through gritted teeth about Chu Mingyun's throwing of the jade pendant, "Not to mention, my cousin gave it so well with good intentions. Good jade, he just threw it away like that! When I was in Cangwu Mountain, I only thought that his character was really attractive, but I haven’t seen him for a few years. Seeing how ruthless he is now, I really don’t understand what he is doing. What are you thinking about?"

"Brother has not changed, it has always been like this." Qin Zhao said.

"Are you sure?" Du Yue looked suspicious.

"Apart from the two masters, there were only the three of us on the mountain back then. The elder brother was not wary of us, so of course you wouldn't be able to find out." Qin Zhao also sat down and said, "Since we came down the mountain, no matter who gave you anything, as long as it is for unknown purpose , Senior Brother will destroy it without hesitation, and it is true that many disasters have been avoided."

"...Is that so." Du Yue responded sullenly, and after a moment of silence, he frowned and said in a low voice: "Chu Mingyun...what is the origin of it?"

Qin Zhao shook his head.

"No way?!" Du Yue was surprised, "Even you don't know?!"

"Senior brother never mentioned it to anyone." Qin Zhaodao, "And you weren't the one who stayed on Cangwu Mountain the first time?"

"Yes. At that time, Master Baili clearly said at the beginning that he would not accept apprentices, but after I came back from visiting relatives at home, I found that there was an extra Chu Mingyun. I asked the master what was going on, and the master only said that he was Baili. The child of the old master." Du Yue suddenly raised his eyebrows, "By the way, I asked him when I first saw the surname Chu, but do you know why he talked to me?"

"what?"

"He said that he was actually a lonely ghost, and he didn't die cleanly because of his obsession. The spiritual energy on Cangwu Mountain is full, and he is going to eat people after practicing!" Du Yue was furious.

Qin Zhao looked at him, "Do you believe it?"

"I believe it." Du Yue took it for granted.

Qin Zhao silently looked away.

Du Yue continued: "I asked him if he had eaten people before, and he said he had. I've always been a little afraid of him because of this, and I can't change it now!"

Qin Zhao: "..."

"You can't blame me for believing it!" Du Yue hurriedly added, "It's not like you don't know Qin Zhao. At first, the surname Chu was cold-faced and unreasonable all day long. When I asked him these things, he sat in the seat By the side of the stone pool, there was white mist all around, and then he suddenly smiled at me, this is the first time for me, you don’t know the look in his eyes at that time, it scared me to death!”

Qin Zhao sighed, and slowed down his voice, "I understand what you mean."

To this day, I still have lingering fears when I think about it. Du Yue patted his chest and sat down, then heard Qin Zhao speak slowly: "Master obviously knows about Senior Brother, but he never mentions it. A lot of wine, and spoke a few words indistinctly when drunk."

"What did Master Baili say?" Du Yue asked.

Qin Zhao frowned, "That night when I went to pack the wine utensils, the master suddenly sighed and said that the road chosen by the senior brother was too bitter. I asked why, but the master only told me..." He met Du Yue's expectant eyes , lowered his eyes again, hesitatingly said:

"He wants to change the whole world with his own power. If he can't accomplish great things, he will die without a place to die."

Chu Mingyun stopped, raised his eyes and stared at the room where the light came out of the window, thinly smudged the flower tree in the courtyard, the remaining flowers were wet, and the light and shadow flickered.

He walked up the stone steps and was about to raise his hand, but the door opened from the inside, caught Su Shiyu's gaze unexpectedly, Chu Mingyun didn't recover in time, "How do you know I'm here?"

Su Shiyu smiled faintly, "I heard Master Chu's footsteps." He turned sideways to let Chu Mingyun enter the room, "I just don't know what's the matter with Master Chu?"

"I have something to ask." Chu Mingyun sat down and glanced casually at the desk, "What are you doing?"

"Just now Lu Shangshu brought me the summary of the Ministry of Punishment a few days ago, and I just read a few pages." Su Shiyu poured a cup of tea, "What does Master Chu want to ask?"

"Is there anyone who often stares at your face?" Chu Mingyun thought for a while, then added, "Except me."

Su Shiyu couldn't help laughing when he heard the words, and seeing that he didn't mean to be joking, he thought about it carefully, and said frankly: "Except for Mr. Chu, I didn't notice others like this."

"...Then when Lord Su was in Huainan, there should be some attendants by his side from time to time?"

Su Shiyu nodded, "I'm not familiar with Huainan, so there will naturally be a waiter to guide me."

Chu Mingyun understood it, laughed inexplicably, and took the teacup casually.

"What does Master Chu mean by asking this?" Su Shiyu asked puzzled.

"It's nothing." Chu Mingyun took a sip of tea, and then said again: "How is Mr. Su preparing for the Tweet Order?"

"I have already drawn up the content of the ordinance, and I have presented it to His Majesty for review," Su Shiyu said, "It's just that in order to implement it smoothly, in addition to Huainan King's charge of rebellion, a vassal king is required to take the lead."

"It seems that Mr. Su has found a suitable candidate." Chu Mingyun looked at him.

Su Shiyu smiled, "The letter has been sent to the King of Xiling, and he will arrive soon after we return to Chang'an."

"King of Xiling?" Chu Mingyun groaned as he placed his fingertips casually on the blue and white porcelain cup, "King of Xiling has some friendship with other feudal lords, which can be regarded as having some prestige, and he is the most stable one at present. You have chosen well." .”

"Since Master Chu also said so, it seems that it will not be bad." Su Shiyu smiled, seeing that Chu Mingyun seemed to have nothing to say, he asked with a little confusion: "Does Master Chu have anything else to ask?" ?”

"Ask what?" Chu Mingyun raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile, "I asked you if you would answer me, didn't you ignore me?"

"I don't mean this." Su Shiyu closed his eyes and smiled softly, "About the fact that the Huns want to cede land and form an alliance, does Master Chu have anything you want to ask me?"

Chu Mingyun rested his chin with one hand and looked at him with a smile, "No."

Su Shiyu frowned slightly, "According to what Wei Shangshu said earlier, Master Chu's attitude was unusually tough at that time."

Chu Mingyun laughed casually, "It's always unusual for Wu to fight and Wen to reconcile."

Su Shiyu looked at him, "But I'm also a civil servant."

"You are different."

"How is it different?"

Chu Mingyun met his gaze and smiled slowly: "It's different everywhere."

Su Shiyu couldn't answer for a moment.

Chu Mingyun curled the corners of his lips, stared fixedly at him, suddenly remembered something, got up and took a step forward.

Suddenly they got too close, and the sandalwood smelled faintly, Su Shiyu subconsciously took a step back, "What's wrong?"

"Hide what, I won't eat you." Chu Mingyun pressed his shoulders, his eyes fell on his face, "Suddenly want to try it out, if it's me... how it would feel."

Su Shiyu frowned inexplicably, but he really stopped moving.

Chu Mingyun approached slowly little by little, his eyes turned into entangled strands covering Su Shiyu's eyebrows and eyes, carefully taking his face into his eyes.

Slightly frowning brows, only the eyes of his own figure, and the faint smile on the corners of his pale lips.

The silence that can be heard by breathing, the distance that can be felt by breathing.

This is his sweetheart, with downcast eyes and a smile full of elegance that cannot be concealed, the more spotless and elegant, the more it arouses his deepest desire.

Want to touch, want to own.

A trace of thirsty heat quietly grew, Chu Mingyun's eyes gradually darkened, he moved closer, and kissed Su Shiyu's palm.

"..."

Chu Mingyun raised his eyes to look at the person who raised his hand to block him, the tails of his eyes were raised, and suddenly he bent his eyes to reveal a provocative smile.

Su Shiyu's heart twitched, and then there was a soft touch in his palm, accompanied by a bit of tantalizing itch and commotion. He subconsciously withdrew his hand but was clasped tightly by Chu Mingyun, and it was difficult to break free without distraction.

Su Shiyu's hands were warm and dry, with slender fingers and well-defined joints.Chu Mingyun kissed the palm of his hand, and traced along the lines of his palm with the tip of his tongue, and his breath was also entangled between his fingers.Licking and kissing all the way from his palm to his knuckles, Chu Mingyun raised his eyes slowly again, looked straight into Su Shiyu's eyes, smiled, opened his mouth and bit his fingertips, and licked his tongue flexibly, reflected in Su Shiyu's eyes. A sudden bright red.

He unconsciously bent his fingers against Chu Mingyun's teeth.Chu Mingyun stared at him and blinked, and let out a low laugh from his throat, biting his teeth lightly on his phalanges, even caressing the hand clasping his wrist restlessly.

He felt Su Shiyu's stagnation, and he saw that Su Shiyu's pupils were also in chaos.

Chu Mingyun opened his mouth loosely, and kissed the back of his hand for the last time, then pulled his hand to the side of his face, leaned slightly, and approached him again.

The four eyes meet each other, without blinking or blinking, like a stalemate chess game, or a confrontational battle situation, no one looks away, and no one dodges.

The dripping sound of the treetops under the eaves is extended extremely slowly.She could smell the calming fragrance on his body, and feel his growing temperature, and the corners of her lips had already been rubbed.

The sound of footsteps and rapid knocking on the door suddenly sounded, and Su Shiyu retreated suddenly as if awakened by a thunderbolt. Chu Mingyun stroked his forehead, turned his head and scolded at the door: "Why are you making so much noise in the middle of the night? You don't want to live anymore?"

The viciousness in the words frightened the people outside the door for a moment, and they said anxiously: "My lord, there is a big incident at Wei Shangshu's side, Your Majesty urgently summons you to the main hall!"
