Second minister and thief
Chapter 59: Hiring
It has been five full days and nights since Chu Linqiu regained consciousness for the third time.Xu Shi had finally had enough rest. Not only was he able to hold on to a few conversations with others after waking up, but he even felt much better mentally.
Lying halfway on the bed, he tried his best to pull out the phoenix eyes, looked around vainly, and saw a group of people surrounded by his bed, most of them were familiar faces, he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief.
"By birth, didn't you study in Nanchong? How did you appear here? I, I this time...cough cough, slept for a long time?"
"..." Du Pingsheng thought to himself, it's not just "very long", you are almost going to sleep for a long time.etc! ! !Did I hear anything just now? !
"Brother, brother? Do you know me? You said I was studying in Nanchong?! Isn't that...then do you know him?"
"Uncle Ning..." Chu Linqiu only closed his eyes and rested for a moment, and then was forcefully dragged by Du Pingsheng to recognize a group of people. He couldn't help being a little irritable and about to explode, but suddenly he raised his eyes and saw himself The "savior" who behaved strangely was also pulled out from the corner at this time, and pushed to the side of the bed.
"Brother, who is this person's name? Do you have a slight impression of him? He is you..." Du Pingsheng originally wanted to tell the whole story, but he stopped abruptly because he didn't know what came to mind.He secretly lowered his head to take a few glances at Xiao Cen's extremely disheveled complexion, and a sense of "retribution for the great revenge" suddenly rose in his heart.
"..." Chu Linqiu thought that his patience was finally exhausted by the trouble, so he gently broke away from the man's hand, closed his eyes and said softly, "I don't know."
There was inevitably a little impatience in the words, and Xiao Cen's expression became more and more lost when he heard it. He supported the bedpost and slowly squatted down on the side, raised his hand slightly and lovingly stroked the temples of the person in front of him, and said softly Said, "Husband, I am A Tan...how did you forget?"
"In July of the Bingyin year, you and I got married according to the imperial edict, and became a couple. So far, we have been inseparable and inseparable. Husband... Ah Tan knows that you are exhausted, and I don't want to recall the nostalgia It’s okay, it’s okay, A-tan will love you, respect you, and take care of you in the future, what do you think?”
"A Tan owed you a lot...now it's time to repay it."
"You..." Chu Linqiu was shocked when he heard the words. He suddenly turned his head to avoid Xiao Cen's hand, and couldn't help but move his body inward, and then he looked at the side who was standing beside him with a very serious expression on his face. The ugly Du Pingsheng opened his eyes wide and murmured in disbelief, "Husband? Ridiculous... really ridiculous..."
"By birth, what is the purpose of this person suddenly appearing here? Why don't you quickly pull him away?! I don't want, don't want to see him...cough cough..."
"Nine Merchants?! Husband... Husband, you just woke up, you are too weak to be too excited! Don't say it...don't say it...A Tan. .....Thousands of mistakes, I shouldn't have acted too hastily..." Xiao Cen was completely terrified. While wiping away his tears, he hurriedly stretched out his hand to help Chu Linqiu up, and put a hand on Chu Linqiu's chest. He kept patting his back, and kept apologizing, obviously regretting his impulsive action just now.
This person can't stand the slightest stimulation now, and the best policy is to proceed step by step.After figuring this out, Xiao Cen never mentioned the matter of "he is his husband" in front of Chu Linqiu, but he always inadvertently found a good opportunity for him to see the colored notes they had exchanged earlier. and tokens.
At this moment, the things that Chu Linqiu Tuodu handed over to him with his own life must come in handy.Xiao Cen only hated himself when he was young and ignorant, not only did he not collect those things properly, but he didn't know how to cherish them and lost them many times, he really deserves to die!
Fortunately, this time Jiushang also came to his senses without any risk, and he was finally able to make up for the mistakes he made stupidly.
At first, Chu Linqiu really didn't like this kid who claimed to be "the grandson of Old General Xiao", and he often had people drive him out.However, every time he woke up from his sleep, he would unexpectedly bump into a pair of eyes that were shining brightly all the time.
Over time, he was allowed to go.
What's more, that person did take out a marriage certificate with a seal, dozens of letterheads and small portraits written by himself. The evidence is conclusive and does not seem to be fake.
During this period of time, in order to be able to stay by Qingqing's side and take care of him, Xiao Cen used all his shameless skills.Not only did he bring out all the tricks he had learned in Mobei, but he also made up a few nonsense words, which made Du Pingsheng almost violently attack with a knife.
For example now... He lowered his head and stirred the bitter medicine in the porcelain bowl, while pretending to be sad and murmured, "My husband doesn't know, you and I were like glue back then, we were very affectionate, and there are many people in Beijing and China." What makes people envious. You once twirled a strand of my hair and said, 'If you are with me in this life, what more can I ask for', these...do you really not remember at all?"
"Jiu Shang... You once went deep into the enemy's line to save me alone, and you were almost killed by an arrow in your shoulder. Now, there... you still have a shallow mark."
"You really..."
"I don't remember." Hearing these past events, Chu Linqiu seemed to be watching a big drama, and he couldn't make any ripples at all, but for some reason, when he accidentally saw Xiao Cen deeply frowning, he couldn't help but raise his hand Soothe it.
Du Pingsheng, who was rushing in, saw this scene rightly, and his face turned pale with fright. He quickly walked two steps forward and slapped Chu Linqiu's slender jade fingers between the man's eyebrows with his palm. "My brother! It's rare to have such a good opportunity, you have to let him go! You can't be easily deceived by this person's few words again! Isn't Ding Maonian's lesson not enough?!"
"Again? Lesson? Cough..."
"It's nothing, nothing! I'll talk to you another day!" Xiao Cen suddenly felt that something was wrong, so he quickly waited for the man to lie down and rest with his eyes flashing, and then wrapped his four fingers in the palm of his hand, cherishing and cherishing it He dropped a light kiss, mixed with two hot tears.
Chu Linqiu felt it, but his eyes were tightly closed, and his fingertips trembled slightly, but he didn't move away, obviously acquiescing.
Xiao Cen suddenly understood the meaning, and it was inevitable that he was so sad and happy that he almost covered his face and wept. He hugged the person in his arms with tears and laughter, and buried his head in his shoulder. After a while, Fang trembled and said vaguely, " When will you ride a horse for ten miles to Changting Road with you, and then drink... apricot blossom wine?"
......
In the late autumn of the fourth year of Taishi, Chu Linqiu's body, which he had raised for a long time, finally improved, and he was barely able to walk on the ground. In that month, the two of them used the spirit of their ancestors as a matchmaker, the heavens and the earth as witnesses, and relatives and friends as proofs, and married again.
Xiao Cen finally fulfilled his promise of "three homes with red make-up", and under the watchful eyes of everyone, he personally unfolded the volume of marriage letter that had been written for ten days and nights, causing everyone to be in an uproar.
So far, the rumors about the right and wrong, love and hatred between this pair of "loyal and sycophants" have come to an end.
Spoiler: be careful
Unknowingly, the flames outside the city of Taodu had collided with mountains and rivers, making the twilight that was gradually gathering suddenly turn into daylight.
The fighting on the plain was still going on, and all I could see were ferocious Nanrong warriors, wielding their golden knives and slashing around, occasionally making vague cry.
Blood gushed out, stumps piled up, and feathered arrows flew.
And the imperial guards from the northern and southern yamen who gathered at the east gate and were ordered to fight to the death were already very few left at this moment.
It was in such a situation that Chu Linqiu walked along the edge of the steps with a knife, and climbed up to the roof of the supporting building alone.His current situation was terrible, not only his face was covered with soot and his true face could not be discerned, but also dark red blood was flowing from his forehead and cheeks, making him look extremely horrifying.
But what makes people feel even more cold from the inside is that when the man supported the purple brick and raised his eyes to look at the fallen figures in the distance, there was an imperceptible smile on his lips. Like a plum in winter, lonely and sad.
He hummed an unknown ditty outside the Great Wall, and in the blink of an eye, two strings of beads rustled down like this without warning.
It's too late, the Privy Envoy thought so.
"My lord! My lord! Why are you here? Let the subordinates find it easy! The city gate is dangerous, please follow me quickly..."
"This is the end of the matter, let's run for our lives." Chu Linqiu suddenly raised his hand and waved back the people who came to look for him, then staggered a few steps to the side by himself, and stopped at the broken flagpole.
At this time, the fire had already spread to the entrance of the stone steps, and it was about to pounce on everyone with its teeth and claws.But Master Chu still straightened his back, staring blankly at the path ahead full of hoofprints, not knowing what he was waiting for.
"My lord...? My lord, what are you talking about? Brothers know each other from the bottom of their hearts, and they treat each other with sincerity. Since they entered the Yamen, they have been favored by you. Now that the country is in danger and the city is in danger, how can they abandon their master and run away?!"
"Exactly! My lord, let's go! The fire is about to burn up in the east wind!!! If you don't leave...it's really too late..." Seeing the serious situation, the disgraced captains immediately Turning his mind, he hurriedly held Chu Linqiu's two arms and tried to lead him to another direction where the fire was slightly calmer.
But who would have thought that the man was dizzy, his limbs were limp, and he couldn't walk at all. He hung up and down on his subordinates, but he still persistently raised his hand tremblingly and pointed at a certain peak, and said with all his strength, " Go... After Chu's death, you will go to seek refuge with General Xiao... He is a loyal person, if you still remember... the little friendship with Chu ......inevitable......"
"My lord!!! If General Huwei is really loyal and unparalleled, how come he is the only one who is so harsh on you?! There will be no reinforcements...to be alone and helpless today is exactly his revenge for us."
"Let's go, my lord! Keep the green hills here, don't be afraid... there is no firewood!!!"
"Yes, my lord..." Several people looked at each other, and they thought of a trick to knock Chu Linqiu away, but before they had time to do it, the man pushed him out with a palm first. Two lengths away.
Coincidentally, when no one came close, the jumping flames opened their bloody mouth like a demon and directly swallowed Chu Linqiu, making his black armor instantly covered with bright red seedlings, very similar to that In the midsummer of the year, I wear a luxurious wedding robe on my body...
"My lord... My lord!!! My lord... woo..." The school captains immediately knelt heavily on the ground and kowtowed twice. They subconsciously wanted to go over and take the man He was rescued, but was blocked by crossbars and blue tiles that suddenly fell from the sky.
In the end, they could only hold each other in place, watching helplessly as their master was surrounded by flames little by little.
At the same time, several feathered arrows pierced through the air and shot straight into his shoulders, arms and abdomen.This sudden tearing pain made it unbearable for Chu Linqiu to stagger forward two steps, trying to hold on to the wall brick.Unexpectedly, with one hand in the air, the whole person turned over and fell from the gate tower.
"No!!! No—Nine Merchants...Nine Merchants...Ahhhhhhhhhhh!!!"
Just like that, Chu Linqiu flew down with sporadic flames and four or five arrows, and slowly closed his eyes in the night sky with a resolute smile.In a trance, he not only "saw" Xiao Cenxuan's white horse riding on the lake, but also heard the heart-piercing cry of that person.
Good...to die without regret.
Xiao Yuanshan, if there is an afterlife you and I will never...
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhly
Xiao Cen had indeed rode his horse and led the [-] Mobei Army, but it was a pity that he was one step too late, seeing such a tragic scene.He dismounted from his horse like a maniac, and scrambled to the bottom of the city gate, his arms stretched out to try to catch the body that had lost its soul and was blowing in the wind.
I don't think it's still a step too late, and in the end he could only sit on his knees and watch the person he admired fall heavily in front of him, without making a sound.
"Nine merchants... Nine merchants... I'm here... The most damned Xiao Yuanshan is here!!! Open your eyes and take a look...your Xiao Here comes Cen..." Xiao Cen hurriedly crawled up to him with hands and feet, first he stretched out his hand and lightly brushed off the gray ashes on the man's face, and then he dared to use his fingertips to trace the end of his beautiful eyes inch by inch, The bridge of the nose and lips.
"Jiu Shang, wake up soon... why are you ignoring people? Xiao Cen is here... to save you... to take you away... Xiao Cen will take you away now!!! You, why don't you speak? You, do you blame me for coming late and complaining that I always say hurtful words, so you are angry with me and deliberately ignore me? It must be so of......"
"Jiu Shang, get up quickly...I'll take you back right now..." Xiao Cen felt that everything around him had nothing to do with him, and his vision was so narrow that he could only pretend to lie down The person lying on the ground with his eyes closed and the corners of his lips slowly overflowing with blood.
Trembling, he stepped forward to support Chu Linqiu's shoulders and neck, trying to hug him up, but in the end he lost strength and fell down because of the heavy armor, and lay on his back directly.
"Jiu Shang... Jiu Shang... hold on... I, I will take you back to Mo, Mo Bei...there are the best Physician and Mr. Yun, they will surely save your life!!! Yes, yes...I will take you back right now..."
Spoiler: be careful
"If it's late, it's too late. How dare you say, 'I'll take you back'? He's out of breath."
"General Xiao...Why don't you dare to go over and try? Xiao Yuanshan, my Brother Chu has something to say, he can't wait for you, so he will go first..." Someone who appeared behind him at some time Du Pingsheng took out a stack of colored papers from his pocket and casually lifted them up, and those papers, as light as cicada's wings, fluttered in the wind, and a little piled up at Xiao Cen's feet in an instant.
General Huwei's hand stopped in the air for a moment, then tremblingly picked up the top piece of letter paper, and saw that there was an ancient poem written in small script with about a hundred characters neatly written in it.
There were two sentences in the middle that gripped Xiao Cen's heart tightly like a pair of pliers, making him suddenly feel out of breath, and his eyes turned black, but he fell to the ground in a short while.
"It's useless to be straight and lovesick, but it's okay to be melancholy."
"Jiu Shang... Jiu Shang... I'll take you back..." He crawled over and grasped Chu Linqiu's hand with all his strength, only to feel the coldness reaching his limbs. skeleton.
"Jiu Shang, you wake up...you wake up!!! You... That year when I conquered Xichuan, you told me that if the army triumphed, you would ride a horse from the ten-mile long pavilion... ...And, there is Ding Maonian! You once made a big promise to me...you are called the double branch, one heart and one mind! And, there is a big marriage between you and me!!!"
"That's enough for Xiao Yuanshan! Just let him go with peace of mind!!! Don't let these words...disturb him even when he is under the Nine Springs..." Du Pingsheng couldn't bear it in the end. Then he grabbed Xiao Cen's shoulder and slammed it to the side, pointed at him tremblingly with a finger and said, "Now the general knows how to remember what he has done to you? When I wrote down these two lines of 'resolve grievances and end knots, don't hate each other; one is different and two are lenient, each is happy', did you ever think about what kind of mood this person would be in?!"
"..."
"You just let a few tears wet the letter paper, but he... braved the heavy snow and drank a bunch of apricot flower wine in the pavilion, and then he vomited blood and was dying!!! Mr. Yun saved his life by giving acupuncture. It took five days and five nights to make him turn around..."
"But what about you? Where are you? You hate him!!! You blame him for not increasing his troops and leaving you helpless...but why have you ever thought about his situation in the capital?!!! "
"No...not as you said...not...I..." Xiao Cen's pale lips wriggled weakly, and finally recovered My own voice, "I was wrong...Jiu Shang, I knew I was wrong...I knew I was wrong...I knew I was wrong! I knew I was wrong, I knew I was wrong! !! Wake up and scold me!!!"
Everyone was horrified to see that after Xiao Cen knelt beside the man covering his face and weeping bitterly for a long time, he suddenly got up and shook his face several times with all his might, finally opened his mouth without warning and vomited a few red lips. Dazzling blood came, and then his whole body collapsed to the ground like a weed in the wind.
"General!!!"
After he passed out, some subordinates boldly surrounded him, stretched out two fingers tremblingly and tried to press Chu Linqiu's neck, but saw that his pair of phoenix eyes were half-opened and half-closed at some point. attitude.
His eyes were slack and out of focus, and his pupils had already expanded to the edge... For a while, many people around him stood still and began to sob softly.
"My lord—"
......
"what!!!"
"General!! You finally woke up General!!! If you don't wake up again...I don't know what to do..."
"Yes, General, you must take care of your health. The siege of the capital has just been lifted, and there are still many matters waiting for you to decide. If you fall down again..."
"This general seems to have had a terrible dream." With the support of others, Xiao Cen got up from the bed, pawing three thousand hairs in a trance, "I dreamed that Jiu Shang fell from the city gate and died. ...how is this possible?"
"By the way, you just said... the siege of the capital has been lifted? The Nine Merchants and the others have also been rescued? How come I don't have any impression of the general? Where is the Nine Merchant? Why don't you stay with the general? That's right...he must be angry with me for being late, so he deliberately hid in the room and disappeared. Wait for me to apologize..."
"General... General!!!" Seeing that their coach was really disheveled and barefoot, and he was about to look for someone outside, they hurriedly pulled his arms from left to right and lamented, "General, don't fall into a dream!" I can't get out! Master Chu...you can see him with your own eyes when he is gone!!!"
"Yes, General, the coffin is currently in the front hall...Do you, do you..."
"...What did you say? Who gave you the guts to curse your lord? Huh?!" Xiao Cen came back to his senses, and then gradually saw that the soldiers in front of him were all dressed in plain white. There is also a cloth handkerchief around it.
"What are you doing?! Where are you, my lord...? I ask you, where are you, my lord?!"
"General, please be sober! My lord has gone...he really went!!! If you don't believe me, go..."
Before the words fell, the generals only felt an afterimage flash in front of their eyes, and the man had disappeared without a trace before returning to their senses.
What the subordinate said was true, there was indeed a coffin without a lid parked in the front hall of the yamen at the moment.What echoed it was the white flags fluttering in the wind in the courtyard and the howling sounds from far and near.
Xiao Cen described himself as embarrassed and even wearing only a jacket, so he appeared in front of the steps staggeringly, he staggered two steps forward with his hand on the doorpost, and finally fell on the edge of the coffin as he wished.
"Jiu Shang..." The man only raised his hands to clamp the sharp corners of the wood tightly, but he couldn't muster the courage to look inside.
Chu Linqiu had been wiped of blood last night, dressed neatly and placed in it.Therefore, he was very decent lying in it. Not only was he wearing his favorite purple uniform, but he even carefully rolled up his hair and tied it with a hosta.
If it wasn't for that face that was bloodless or even faintly blue, I'm afraid someone would believe that he was asleep.
Finally, Xiao Cen stretched his hand in, touched the end of his eyes tremblingly, and his fingers were cold to the bottom of his heart, "Woo...why didn't you just wait a little longer? Leave me in this world. ...how cruel you are..."
Spoiler: end of be
"General, the dead cannot be brought back to life... Please mourn and take care of your body."
"Go away!!!" Xiao Cen waved the man's hand on his shoulder, and then he grabbed the edge of the coffin and tried his best to get in.At this time, his expression was ferocious, his hair and beard were all messed up, his eyes were wide open, and he looked like an evil spirit coming from the netherworld. One couldn't help but feel chills seeing him, especially the fierce look in his eyes... To turn into a sharp sword and stab the people around you right through.
After the master woke up, he was so mad that his subordinates didn't dare to touch him easily, so they only looked at each other, and then retreated one after another.
"Jiu Shang, seeing how decent you are, you even changed into this purple suit... As expected, 'A gentleman is like jade, and his feathers shine brightly'. It's just that the complexion is too ugly. Those people are too disgusted. It looks good, but he refuses to take out the makeup and make up. It seems that I have to come in person..." After finishing speaking, under the astonished gazes of everyone, Xiao Cen slowly leaned over and looked at Chu Lin. Qiu kissed the center of the eyebrows, both cheeks, and the corners of the lips, and then parted and held his face with both hands, murmured with tears in his eyes, "Jiu Shang, if a ghost leads you to the bank of the Wangchuan River, But don't believe the boatman's words, you must wait a little longer... that's all, Xiao Cen hurt you so far, how can he beg you not to forget the past?"
Speaking of this, he closed his eyes, sighed and took a deep breath, "Qingqing, just go ahead. If there is an afterlife, I swear to live up to the king. If you violate this promise, you will die with five limbs."
"The general can't!!!"
"Let's all go down, let me...stay with him for a while." Xiao Cen pulled out the horizontal knife from his subordinate's waist with his backhand, and after slashing his own wrist, he acted as if nothing had happened. He turned around and ordered everyone to retreat and close the wooden door.
Some of the subordinates were young and energetic and did not want to move, but they were also dragged across the threshold by the shoulders of the elders.
Not long after, even the wailing sounds that seemed to tear the heart and lungs in the courtyard disappeared without a trace, and there was only a pale and desolate place in sight.
Xiao Cen slumped down the coffin in such a situation that made people want to cry, and let the bright red blood flow out from his wrist, ignoring him.
"Jiu Shang...Chu Lang...What should I do? Xiao Cen only now knows what is meant by 'heart-wrenching pain', it is a kind of pain that... even hurts the body The feeling of less than half a cent, that is raw..."
"Jiu Shang, you and I still have a lot of lovesickness when we reunite. How can you just let it go and leave? This is calling me... Where can I apologize? Haha...hahaha! Are you How heartless, how stupid I am."
"Damn it! Damn it! I told you to abandon your lover for the sake of the common people in the world...I told you to listen to the words of the villain and hurt the person who really loved you so badly...Retribution. .....this is retribution!!! Cough cough..." Xiao Cen muttered with a wry smile, but raised his still-moving hand to wipe the blood line overflowing from the corner of his lips.
At this moment, he was dazed and dizzy, and he felt that the whole world had been turned upside down, not only his chest was aching and he was about to vomit, but there were also phantoms appearing in the void, among them was Chu Lin who was wearing a jade crown and stepped on the steps Autumn.
"Jiu Shang...It's so good, you have come into my dream again...If there is another life in front of you, please don't act...There is love and infatuation... .”
......
Since he was rescued in the mourning hall after he lost a blood loss and fainted that day, Xiao Cen seemed to be a completely different person. Not only did he no longer show a smile in front of outsiders, but he even became more ruthless in his actions.
Over time, the common people said that General Huwei, who used to be kind and caring for the world, has now become a blood Shura.
He seemed to be tireless. He often led [-] iron cavalry alone into the Nanrong king's tent with his black armor and white horse.
Established supreme prestige in the Beiqi Army, and also suffered from illness.During the rainy season, his wrists, knees and chest would gradually experience intense pain, which was unbearable.
What's more, they will be tortured on the couch until they lose consciousness and pass out.
It was not until today that Xiao Cen finally understood, how persevering must it be for Chu Linqiu to be able to maintain his dignified demeanor and demeanor despite being eroded by chronic illness?
It's a pity...it's too late to regret.
"Chu Lang, I don't know if you still remember the snow disaster at the beginning of Xinwei? It took away the money and food that countless people depended on for survival, and it also took away my love... Maybe this is God's punishment... ...."
"Jiu Shang, please wait a little longer. After I go straight to the king's tent and take the head of Iro to avenge you, I will go to the underworld to meet you. Ah Tan misses you... .Woo... Ah Tan misses you!!!" Xiao Cen raised his head and "gululu" after drinking a jar of fragrant apricot blossom wine, he raised it mercilessly and threw the empty altar in the air. An arc was drawn in the middle, and it was thrown into the loose soil under a tree.
During these years of spring and autumn, as long as the general has no internal and external affairs to decide, he must always be in a drunk dream with that white jade in his pocket.Because he felt that this was the only way to see that handsome man who was always handsome and extraordinary like a jade tree standing in front of the court.
But recently, Chu Linqiu did not often appear in Xiao Cen's dreams, he seemed to be tired of this kind of dark waiting, and was about to reincarnate as a human.
I broke promises and missed appointments, Qingqing must be terribly disappointed, so that's fine... Let's go to the world and choose another confidant who is willing to understand you and believe in you to accompany you for the rest of your life.
As for me, Xiao... I really don't have the face to appear in front of you.
"Chu Lang...Chu Lang Hou me!!! Chu Lang!!! Don't!!!" Xiao Cen woke up from the dream again, sat up straight like a puppet, and opened his mouth before calling anyone in. After washing, he buried his head deep in his arms and burst into tears.
Those howls that were louder than others made the bridge of the nose sore, and felt quite uncomfortable.
"The cuckoo cries blood" is nothing more than this.
"This is... what's wrong? Cough cough..."
"..." Just as Xiao Cen was immersed in his boundless sorrow and couldn't extricate himself, a thunderstorm in his ear blasted him back to the world.The man couldn't believe his ears, so that for a moment he just sat with his knees hugged and didn't respond at all.
Spoiler: Husband and wife's daily routine ([-])
Xiao Cen didn't know if he was in a dream, he sat on the bed with his knees bent and didn't dare to look back, for fear of breaking this beautiful illusion, after about a quarter of an hour, he raised his hand tremblingly to go Touch your own face...
hiss!His fingertips were immediately pricked by the green and hard stubble.
"Woo..." Xiao Cen's tears, which had been so hard to stop, welled up again and flowed all over his face in an instant. How is it possible? Jiushang... my Jiushang..." He bit down on the corner of the brocade quilt desperately to prevent himself from making a sound, but the eye-catching scream still came from his lips from time to time The overflow made the expression of the reclining person on the couch even weirder.
"You have been sleeping for several days with high fever, cough cough...how did you start hysteria as soon as you opened your eyes? Are you in a nightmare?"
"..." Come on, the sound at the moment is really real, it is absolutely impossible to be an illusion produced while half dreaming and half awake!Therefore, after slapping his face fiercely twice, Xiao Cen got off the bed with his chest spread out, stumbled towards the beauty couch not far away, and plunged into the bed that made him daydream without even looking at it. Si Ye wanted to be in the arms of the maniac, knocked his head away, and coughed a few more times.
"You..." Chu Linqiu opened his phoenix eyes slightly, and looked down at the person in his arms inexplicably. He wanted to push him away, but when he saw Xiao Cen's trembling with extreme fear, When the eyelashes grew, the pain in my heart turned into a pat.
"Don't move...don't move...let me hug...alive...really alive Jiushang woo woo woo... . Could it be that God is merciful... No, no, I, Xiao, have an unforgivable crime, so I will not be taken care of like this. Please, let me have a good look! Lively...... It's really alive..."
After saying that, Xiao Cen reluctantly got up, he knelt beside the couch, held Chu Linqiu's face in his hands and carefully looked at the person who haunted him.
Although Chu Linqiu was able to sit alone on the couch and read a book, his face was still pale and weak, as if a gust of wind could blow him down.Especially when he was hit by an unintentional "boulder" just now, he accidentally lost his breath, and until now he still can't stop the desperately suppressed low cough.
Therefore, after barely easing up, he couldn't help but have a bad look at the reckless "culprit", and even put the scroll aside, closing his eyes and getting ready to rest.
However, it didn't take long before I was disturbed by two very penetrating sights and had to open my eyes again, "Cough... the general has a high fever, so I don't worry about giving Chu a bad breath." ?”
As soon as the words fell, the "dog" in front of me turned into an afterimage, quickly climbed onto the original bed and lifted up the brocade quilt to wrap herself tightly, only the remaining pair of bright eyes that couldn't hide their disappointment could not stop Looking at the beauty's couch, it's ridiculous and pitiful.
Although Chu Linqiu didn't have the slightest impression of him, but during this period of time, he really saw a lot of his shameless skills, and some small ripples appeared in his heart.Seeing this person's behavior very different from usual at this moment, I can't help but secretly feel suspicious, and at the same time, I can't help but want to explore the scene he experienced in his dream.
"You...cough, if you really feel tired, lie down and rest..."
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Cen hurriedly interrupted, "I'm not tired! I'm not tired...I'm not tired...Just, just look at you like this. Right, right? It's because I'm not healthy enough to be by your side to take care of you...but, but I can also watch you sleep here. Jiushang, don't you...do you still want to drive me away? I won't go, I won't go...Xiao Cen swears to God that he will never leave you again in this life."
After all, this person woke up from a serious illness and was exhausted. He only said a few words in a hoarse voice, and then he felt a strong sense of sleepiness rushing over his face.But even so, he still secretly pinched the soft flesh of his palm to help him wake up, so as not to find out after waking up, it turned out that this was Huang Liang's dream.
"..." Chu Linqiu had no doubts at all, if it wasn't for the words just now, this person would have come to grab him so hard that he couldn't tear it off.Xiao Cen's gaze was too hot, explicit and aggrieved, which made people quite uncomfortable, so that even he was upset, so he could only pretend to be angry, picked up the scroll in hand and threw it over, and shouted, "Close your eyes! Otherwise Just get Chu out of this door! Ahem..."
After a seizure, he was so angry that he fell on the desk coughing and panting, and of course Xiao Cen was terrified.
The idiot subconsciously wanted to crawl to the side of the couch to rub someone's chest and pat his back, but he remembered his physical condition in time, and worried that he would be overwhelmed by illness, and it would inevitably make things worse... ...So I could only stand hesitantly by the bed, not daring to step forward
Lying halfway on the bed, he tried his best to pull out the phoenix eyes, looked around vainly, and saw a group of people surrounded by his bed, most of them were familiar faces, he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief.
"By birth, didn't you study in Nanchong? How did you appear here? I, I this time...cough cough, slept for a long time?"
"..." Du Pingsheng thought to himself, it's not just "very long", you are almost going to sleep for a long time.etc! ! !Did I hear anything just now? !
"Brother, brother? Do you know me? You said I was studying in Nanchong?! Isn't that...then do you know him?"
"Uncle Ning..." Chu Linqiu only closed his eyes and rested for a moment, and then was forcefully dragged by Du Pingsheng to recognize a group of people. He couldn't help being a little irritable and about to explode, but suddenly he raised his eyes and saw himself The "savior" who behaved strangely was also pulled out from the corner at this time, and pushed to the side of the bed.
"Brother, who is this person's name? Do you have a slight impression of him? He is you..." Du Pingsheng originally wanted to tell the whole story, but he stopped abruptly because he didn't know what came to mind.He secretly lowered his head to take a few glances at Xiao Cen's extremely disheveled complexion, and a sense of "retribution for the great revenge" suddenly rose in his heart.
"..." Chu Linqiu thought that his patience was finally exhausted by the trouble, so he gently broke away from the man's hand, closed his eyes and said softly, "I don't know."
There was inevitably a little impatience in the words, and Xiao Cen's expression became more and more lost when he heard it. He supported the bedpost and slowly squatted down on the side, raised his hand slightly and lovingly stroked the temples of the person in front of him, and said softly Said, "Husband, I am A Tan...how did you forget?"
"In July of the Bingyin year, you and I got married according to the imperial edict, and became a couple. So far, we have been inseparable and inseparable. Husband... Ah Tan knows that you are exhausted, and I don't want to recall the nostalgia It’s okay, it’s okay, A-tan will love you, respect you, and take care of you in the future, what do you think?”
"A Tan owed you a lot...now it's time to repay it."
"You..." Chu Linqiu was shocked when he heard the words. He suddenly turned his head to avoid Xiao Cen's hand, and couldn't help but move his body inward, and then he looked at the side who was standing beside him with a very serious expression on his face. The ugly Du Pingsheng opened his eyes wide and murmured in disbelief, "Husband? Ridiculous... really ridiculous..."
"By birth, what is the purpose of this person suddenly appearing here? Why don't you quickly pull him away?! I don't want, don't want to see him...cough cough..."
"Nine Merchants?! Husband... Husband, you just woke up, you are too weak to be too excited! Don't say it...don't say it...A Tan. .....Thousands of mistakes, I shouldn't have acted too hastily..." Xiao Cen was completely terrified. While wiping away his tears, he hurriedly stretched out his hand to help Chu Linqiu up, and put a hand on Chu Linqiu's chest. He kept patting his back, and kept apologizing, obviously regretting his impulsive action just now.
This person can't stand the slightest stimulation now, and the best policy is to proceed step by step.After figuring this out, Xiao Cen never mentioned the matter of "he is his husband" in front of Chu Linqiu, but he always inadvertently found a good opportunity for him to see the colored notes they had exchanged earlier. and tokens.
At this moment, the things that Chu Linqiu Tuodu handed over to him with his own life must come in handy.Xiao Cen only hated himself when he was young and ignorant, not only did he not collect those things properly, but he didn't know how to cherish them and lost them many times, he really deserves to die!
Fortunately, this time Jiushang also came to his senses without any risk, and he was finally able to make up for the mistakes he made stupidly.
At first, Chu Linqiu really didn't like this kid who claimed to be "the grandson of Old General Xiao", and he often had people drive him out.However, every time he woke up from his sleep, he would unexpectedly bump into a pair of eyes that were shining brightly all the time.
Over time, he was allowed to go.
What's more, that person did take out a marriage certificate with a seal, dozens of letterheads and small portraits written by himself. The evidence is conclusive and does not seem to be fake.
During this period of time, in order to be able to stay by Qingqing's side and take care of him, Xiao Cen used all his shameless skills.Not only did he bring out all the tricks he had learned in Mobei, but he also made up a few nonsense words, which made Du Pingsheng almost violently attack with a knife.
For example now... He lowered his head and stirred the bitter medicine in the porcelain bowl, while pretending to be sad and murmured, "My husband doesn't know, you and I were like glue back then, we were very affectionate, and there are many people in Beijing and China." What makes people envious. You once twirled a strand of my hair and said, 'If you are with me in this life, what more can I ask for', these...do you really not remember at all?"
"Jiu Shang... You once went deep into the enemy's line to save me alone, and you were almost killed by an arrow in your shoulder. Now, there... you still have a shallow mark."
"You really..."
"I don't remember." Hearing these past events, Chu Linqiu seemed to be watching a big drama, and he couldn't make any ripples at all, but for some reason, when he accidentally saw Xiao Cen deeply frowning, he couldn't help but raise his hand Soothe it.
Du Pingsheng, who was rushing in, saw this scene rightly, and his face turned pale with fright. He quickly walked two steps forward and slapped Chu Linqiu's slender jade fingers between the man's eyebrows with his palm. "My brother! It's rare to have such a good opportunity, you have to let him go! You can't be easily deceived by this person's few words again! Isn't Ding Maonian's lesson not enough?!"
"Again? Lesson? Cough..."
"It's nothing, nothing! I'll talk to you another day!" Xiao Cen suddenly felt that something was wrong, so he quickly waited for the man to lie down and rest with his eyes flashing, and then wrapped his four fingers in the palm of his hand, cherishing and cherishing it He dropped a light kiss, mixed with two hot tears.
Chu Linqiu felt it, but his eyes were tightly closed, and his fingertips trembled slightly, but he didn't move away, obviously acquiescing.
Xiao Cen suddenly understood the meaning, and it was inevitable that he was so sad and happy that he almost covered his face and wept. He hugged the person in his arms with tears and laughter, and buried his head in his shoulder. After a while, Fang trembled and said vaguely, " When will you ride a horse for ten miles to Changting Road with you, and then drink... apricot blossom wine?"
......
In the late autumn of the fourth year of Taishi, Chu Linqiu's body, which he had raised for a long time, finally improved, and he was barely able to walk on the ground. In that month, the two of them used the spirit of their ancestors as a matchmaker, the heavens and the earth as witnesses, and relatives and friends as proofs, and married again.
Xiao Cen finally fulfilled his promise of "three homes with red make-up", and under the watchful eyes of everyone, he personally unfolded the volume of marriage letter that had been written for ten days and nights, causing everyone to be in an uproar.
So far, the rumors about the right and wrong, love and hatred between this pair of "loyal and sycophants" have come to an end.
Spoiler: be careful
Unknowingly, the flames outside the city of Taodu had collided with mountains and rivers, making the twilight that was gradually gathering suddenly turn into daylight.
The fighting on the plain was still going on, and all I could see were ferocious Nanrong warriors, wielding their golden knives and slashing around, occasionally making vague cry.
Blood gushed out, stumps piled up, and feathered arrows flew.
And the imperial guards from the northern and southern yamen who gathered at the east gate and were ordered to fight to the death were already very few left at this moment.
It was in such a situation that Chu Linqiu walked along the edge of the steps with a knife, and climbed up to the roof of the supporting building alone.His current situation was terrible, not only his face was covered with soot and his true face could not be discerned, but also dark red blood was flowing from his forehead and cheeks, making him look extremely horrifying.
But what makes people feel even more cold from the inside is that when the man supported the purple brick and raised his eyes to look at the fallen figures in the distance, there was an imperceptible smile on his lips. Like a plum in winter, lonely and sad.
He hummed an unknown ditty outside the Great Wall, and in the blink of an eye, two strings of beads rustled down like this without warning.
It's too late, the Privy Envoy thought so.
"My lord! My lord! Why are you here? Let the subordinates find it easy! The city gate is dangerous, please follow me quickly..."
"This is the end of the matter, let's run for our lives." Chu Linqiu suddenly raised his hand and waved back the people who came to look for him, then staggered a few steps to the side by himself, and stopped at the broken flagpole.
At this time, the fire had already spread to the entrance of the stone steps, and it was about to pounce on everyone with its teeth and claws.But Master Chu still straightened his back, staring blankly at the path ahead full of hoofprints, not knowing what he was waiting for.
"My lord...? My lord, what are you talking about? Brothers know each other from the bottom of their hearts, and they treat each other with sincerity. Since they entered the Yamen, they have been favored by you. Now that the country is in danger and the city is in danger, how can they abandon their master and run away?!"
"Exactly! My lord, let's go! The fire is about to burn up in the east wind!!! If you don't leave...it's really too late..." Seeing the serious situation, the disgraced captains immediately Turning his mind, he hurriedly held Chu Linqiu's two arms and tried to lead him to another direction where the fire was slightly calmer.
But who would have thought that the man was dizzy, his limbs were limp, and he couldn't walk at all. He hung up and down on his subordinates, but he still persistently raised his hand tremblingly and pointed at a certain peak, and said with all his strength, " Go... After Chu's death, you will go to seek refuge with General Xiao... He is a loyal person, if you still remember... the little friendship with Chu ......inevitable......"
"My lord!!! If General Huwei is really loyal and unparalleled, how come he is the only one who is so harsh on you?! There will be no reinforcements...to be alone and helpless today is exactly his revenge for us."
"Let's go, my lord! Keep the green hills here, don't be afraid... there is no firewood!!!"
"Yes, my lord..." Several people looked at each other, and they thought of a trick to knock Chu Linqiu away, but before they had time to do it, the man pushed him out with a palm first. Two lengths away.
Coincidentally, when no one came close, the jumping flames opened their bloody mouth like a demon and directly swallowed Chu Linqiu, making his black armor instantly covered with bright red seedlings, very similar to that In the midsummer of the year, I wear a luxurious wedding robe on my body...
"My lord... My lord!!! My lord... woo..." The school captains immediately knelt heavily on the ground and kowtowed twice. They subconsciously wanted to go over and take the man He was rescued, but was blocked by crossbars and blue tiles that suddenly fell from the sky.
In the end, they could only hold each other in place, watching helplessly as their master was surrounded by flames little by little.
At the same time, several feathered arrows pierced through the air and shot straight into his shoulders, arms and abdomen.This sudden tearing pain made it unbearable for Chu Linqiu to stagger forward two steps, trying to hold on to the wall brick.Unexpectedly, with one hand in the air, the whole person turned over and fell from the gate tower.
"No!!! No—Nine Merchants...Nine Merchants...Ahhhhhhhhhhh!!!"
Just like that, Chu Linqiu flew down with sporadic flames and four or five arrows, and slowly closed his eyes in the night sky with a resolute smile.In a trance, he not only "saw" Xiao Cenxuan's white horse riding on the lake, but also heard the heart-piercing cry of that person.
Good...to die without regret.
Xiao Yuanshan, if there is an afterlife you and I will never...
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhly
Xiao Cen had indeed rode his horse and led the [-] Mobei Army, but it was a pity that he was one step too late, seeing such a tragic scene.He dismounted from his horse like a maniac, and scrambled to the bottom of the city gate, his arms stretched out to try to catch the body that had lost its soul and was blowing in the wind.
I don't think it's still a step too late, and in the end he could only sit on his knees and watch the person he admired fall heavily in front of him, without making a sound.
"Nine merchants... Nine merchants... I'm here... The most damned Xiao Yuanshan is here!!! Open your eyes and take a look...your Xiao Here comes Cen..." Xiao Cen hurriedly crawled up to him with hands and feet, first he stretched out his hand and lightly brushed off the gray ashes on the man's face, and then he dared to use his fingertips to trace the end of his beautiful eyes inch by inch, The bridge of the nose and lips.
"Jiu Shang, wake up soon... why are you ignoring people? Xiao Cen is here... to save you... to take you away... Xiao Cen will take you away now!!! You, why don't you speak? You, do you blame me for coming late and complaining that I always say hurtful words, so you are angry with me and deliberately ignore me? It must be so of......"
"Jiu Shang, get up quickly...I'll take you back right now..." Xiao Cen felt that everything around him had nothing to do with him, and his vision was so narrow that he could only pretend to lie down The person lying on the ground with his eyes closed and the corners of his lips slowly overflowing with blood.
Trembling, he stepped forward to support Chu Linqiu's shoulders and neck, trying to hug him up, but in the end he lost strength and fell down because of the heavy armor, and lay on his back directly.
"Jiu Shang... Jiu Shang... hold on... I, I will take you back to Mo, Mo Bei...there are the best Physician and Mr. Yun, they will surely save your life!!! Yes, yes...I will take you back right now..."
Spoiler: be careful
"If it's late, it's too late. How dare you say, 'I'll take you back'? He's out of breath."
"General Xiao...Why don't you dare to go over and try? Xiao Yuanshan, my Brother Chu has something to say, he can't wait for you, so he will go first..." Someone who appeared behind him at some time Du Pingsheng took out a stack of colored papers from his pocket and casually lifted them up, and those papers, as light as cicada's wings, fluttered in the wind, and a little piled up at Xiao Cen's feet in an instant.
General Huwei's hand stopped in the air for a moment, then tremblingly picked up the top piece of letter paper, and saw that there was an ancient poem written in small script with about a hundred characters neatly written in it.
There were two sentences in the middle that gripped Xiao Cen's heart tightly like a pair of pliers, making him suddenly feel out of breath, and his eyes turned black, but he fell to the ground in a short while.
"It's useless to be straight and lovesick, but it's okay to be melancholy."
"Jiu Shang... Jiu Shang... I'll take you back..." He crawled over and grasped Chu Linqiu's hand with all his strength, only to feel the coldness reaching his limbs. skeleton.
"Jiu Shang, you wake up...you wake up!!! You... That year when I conquered Xichuan, you told me that if the army triumphed, you would ride a horse from the ten-mile long pavilion... ...And, there is Ding Maonian! You once made a big promise to me...you are called the double branch, one heart and one mind! And, there is a big marriage between you and me!!!"
"That's enough for Xiao Yuanshan! Just let him go with peace of mind!!! Don't let these words...disturb him even when he is under the Nine Springs..." Du Pingsheng couldn't bear it in the end. Then he grabbed Xiao Cen's shoulder and slammed it to the side, pointed at him tremblingly with a finger and said, "Now the general knows how to remember what he has done to you? When I wrote down these two lines of 'resolve grievances and end knots, don't hate each other; one is different and two are lenient, each is happy', did you ever think about what kind of mood this person would be in?!"
"..."
"You just let a few tears wet the letter paper, but he... braved the heavy snow and drank a bunch of apricot flower wine in the pavilion, and then he vomited blood and was dying!!! Mr. Yun saved his life by giving acupuncture. It took five days and five nights to make him turn around..."
"But what about you? Where are you? You hate him!!! You blame him for not increasing his troops and leaving you helpless...but why have you ever thought about his situation in the capital?!!! "
"No...not as you said...not...I..." Xiao Cen's pale lips wriggled weakly, and finally recovered My own voice, "I was wrong...Jiu Shang, I knew I was wrong...I knew I was wrong...I knew I was wrong! I knew I was wrong, I knew I was wrong! !! Wake up and scold me!!!"
Everyone was horrified to see that after Xiao Cen knelt beside the man covering his face and weeping bitterly for a long time, he suddenly got up and shook his face several times with all his might, finally opened his mouth without warning and vomited a few red lips. Dazzling blood came, and then his whole body collapsed to the ground like a weed in the wind.
"General!!!"
After he passed out, some subordinates boldly surrounded him, stretched out two fingers tremblingly and tried to press Chu Linqiu's neck, but saw that his pair of phoenix eyes were half-opened and half-closed at some point. attitude.
His eyes were slack and out of focus, and his pupils had already expanded to the edge... For a while, many people around him stood still and began to sob softly.
"My lord—"
......
"what!!!"
"General!! You finally woke up General!!! If you don't wake up again...I don't know what to do..."
"Yes, General, you must take care of your health. The siege of the capital has just been lifted, and there are still many matters waiting for you to decide. If you fall down again..."
"This general seems to have had a terrible dream." With the support of others, Xiao Cen got up from the bed, pawing three thousand hairs in a trance, "I dreamed that Jiu Shang fell from the city gate and died. ...how is this possible?"
"By the way, you just said... the siege of the capital has been lifted? The Nine Merchants and the others have also been rescued? How come I don't have any impression of the general? Where is the Nine Merchant? Why don't you stay with the general? That's right...he must be angry with me for being late, so he deliberately hid in the room and disappeared. Wait for me to apologize..."
"General... General!!!" Seeing that their coach was really disheveled and barefoot, and he was about to look for someone outside, they hurriedly pulled his arms from left to right and lamented, "General, don't fall into a dream!" I can't get out! Master Chu...you can see him with your own eyes when he is gone!!!"
"Yes, General, the coffin is currently in the front hall...Do you, do you..."
"...What did you say? Who gave you the guts to curse your lord? Huh?!" Xiao Cen came back to his senses, and then gradually saw that the soldiers in front of him were all dressed in plain white. There is also a cloth handkerchief around it.
"What are you doing?! Where are you, my lord...? I ask you, where are you, my lord?!"
"General, please be sober! My lord has gone...he really went!!! If you don't believe me, go..."
Before the words fell, the generals only felt an afterimage flash in front of their eyes, and the man had disappeared without a trace before returning to their senses.
What the subordinate said was true, there was indeed a coffin without a lid parked in the front hall of the yamen at the moment.What echoed it was the white flags fluttering in the wind in the courtyard and the howling sounds from far and near.
Xiao Cen described himself as embarrassed and even wearing only a jacket, so he appeared in front of the steps staggeringly, he staggered two steps forward with his hand on the doorpost, and finally fell on the edge of the coffin as he wished.
"Jiu Shang..." The man only raised his hands to clamp the sharp corners of the wood tightly, but he couldn't muster the courage to look inside.
Chu Linqiu had been wiped of blood last night, dressed neatly and placed in it.Therefore, he was very decent lying in it. Not only was he wearing his favorite purple uniform, but he even carefully rolled up his hair and tied it with a hosta.
If it wasn't for that face that was bloodless or even faintly blue, I'm afraid someone would believe that he was asleep.
Finally, Xiao Cen stretched his hand in, touched the end of his eyes tremblingly, and his fingers were cold to the bottom of his heart, "Woo...why didn't you just wait a little longer? Leave me in this world. ...how cruel you are..."
Spoiler: end of be
"General, the dead cannot be brought back to life... Please mourn and take care of your body."
"Go away!!!" Xiao Cen waved the man's hand on his shoulder, and then he grabbed the edge of the coffin and tried his best to get in.At this time, his expression was ferocious, his hair and beard were all messed up, his eyes were wide open, and he looked like an evil spirit coming from the netherworld. One couldn't help but feel chills seeing him, especially the fierce look in his eyes... To turn into a sharp sword and stab the people around you right through.
After the master woke up, he was so mad that his subordinates didn't dare to touch him easily, so they only looked at each other, and then retreated one after another.
"Jiu Shang, seeing how decent you are, you even changed into this purple suit... As expected, 'A gentleman is like jade, and his feathers shine brightly'. It's just that the complexion is too ugly. Those people are too disgusted. It looks good, but he refuses to take out the makeup and make up. It seems that I have to come in person..." After finishing speaking, under the astonished gazes of everyone, Xiao Cen slowly leaned over and looked at Chu Lin. Qiu kissed the center of the eyebrows, both cheeks, and the corners of the lips, and then parted and held his face with both hands, murmured with tears in his eyes, "Jiu Shang, if a ghost leads you to the bank of the Wangchuan River, But don't believe the boatman's words, you must wait a little longer... that's all, Xiao Cen hurt you so far, how can he beg you not to forget the past?"
Speaking of this, he closed his eyes, sighed and took a deep breath, "Qingqing, just go ahead. If there is an afterlife, I swear to live up to the king. If you violate this promise, you will die with five limbs."
"The general can't!!!"
"Let's all go down, let me...stay with him for a while." Xiao Cen pulled out the horizontal knife from his subordinate's waist with his backhand, and after slashing his own wrist, he acted as if nothing had happened. He turned around and ordered everyone to retreat and close the wooden door.
Some of the subordinates were young and energetic and did not want to move, but they were also dragged across the threshold by the shoulders of the elders.
Not long after, even the wailing sounds that seemed to tear the heart and lungs in the courtyard disappeared without a trace, and there was only a pale and desolate place in sight.
Xiao Cen slumped down the coffin in such a situation that made people want to cry, and let the bright red blood flow out from his wrist, ignoring him.
"Jiu Shang...Chu Lang...What should I do? Xiao Cen only now knows what is meant by 'heart-wrenching pain', it is a kind of pain that... even hurts the body The feeling of less than half a cent, that is raw..."
"Jiu Shang, you and I still have a lot of lovesickness when we reunite. How can you just let it go and leave? This is calling me... Where can I apologize? Haha...hahaha! Are you How heartless, how stupid I am."
"Damn it! Damn it! I told you to abandon your lover for the sake of the common people in the world...I told you to listen to the words of the villain and hurt the person who really loved you so badly...Retribution. .....this is retribution!!! Cough cough..." Xiao Cen muttered with a wry smile, but raised his still-moving hand to wipe the blood line overflowing from the corner of his lips.
At this moment, he was dazed and dizzy, and he felt that the whole world had been turned upside down, not only his chest was aching and he was about to vomit, but there were also phantoms appearing in the void, among them was Chu Lin who was wearing a jade crown and stepped on the steps Autumn.
"Jiu Shang...It's so good, you have come into my dream again...If there is another life in front of you, please don't act...There is love and infatuation... .”
......
Since he was rescued in the mourning hall after he lost a blood loss and fainted that day, Xiao Cen seemed to be a completely different person. Not only did he no longer show a smile in front of outsiders, but he even became more ruthless in his actions.
Over time, the common people said that General Huwei, who used to be kind and caring for the world, has now become a blood Shura.
He seemed to be tireless. He often led [-] iron cavalry alone into the Nanrong king's tent with his black armor and white horse.
Established supreme prestige in the Beiqi Army, and also suffered from illness.During the rainy season, his wrists, knees and chest would gradually experience intense pain, which was unbearable.
What's more, they will be tortured on the couch until they lose consciousness and pass out.
It was not until today that Xiao Cen finally understood, how persevering must it be for Chu Linqiu to be able to maintain his dignified demeanor and demeanor despite being eroded by chronic illness?
It's a pity...it's too late to regret.
"Chu Lang, I don't know if you still remember the snow disaster at the beginning of Xinwei? It took away the money and food that countless people depended on for survival, and it also took away my love... Maybe this is God's punishment... ...."
"Jiu Shang, please wait a little longer. After I go straight to the king's tent and take the head of Iro to avenge you, I will go to the underworld to meet you. Ah Tan misses you... .Woo... Ah Tan misses you!!!" Xiao Cen raised his head and "gululu" after drinking a jar of fragrant apricot blossom wine, he raised it mercilessly and threw the empty altar in the air. An arc was drawn in the middle, and it was thrown into the loose soil under a tree.
During these years of spring and autumn, as long as the general has no internal and external affairs to decide, he must always be in a drunk dream with that white jade in his pocket.Because he felt that this was the only way to see that handsome man who was always handsome and extraordinary like a jade tree standing in front of the court.
But recently, Chu Linqiu did not often appear in Xiao Cen's dreams, he seemed to be tired of this kind of dark waiting, and was about to reincarnate as a human.
I broke promises and missed appointments, Qingqing must be terribly disappointed, so that's fine... Let's go to the world and choose another confidant who is willing to understand you and believe in you to accompany you for the rest of your life.
As for me, Xiao... I really don't have the face to appear in front of you.
"Chu Lang...Chu Lang Hou me!!! Chu Lang!!! Don't!!!" Xiao Cen woke up from the dream again, sat up straight like a puppet, and opened his mouth before calling anyone in. After washing, he buried his head deep in his arms and burst into tears.
Those howls that were louder than others made the bridge of the nose sore, and felt quite uncomfortable.
"The cuckoo cries blood" is nothing more than this.
"This is... what's wrong? Cough cough..."
"..." Just as Xiao Cen was immersed in his boundless sorrow and couldn't extricate himself, a thunderstorm in his ear blasted him back to the world.The man couldn't believe his ears, so that for a moment he just sat with his knees hugged and didn't respond at all.
Spoiler: Husband and wife's daily routine ([-])
Xiao Cen didn't know if he was in a dream, he sat on the bed with his knees bent and didn't dare to look back, for fear of breaking this beautiful illusion, after about a quarter of an hour, he raised his hand tremblingly to go Touch your own face...
hiss!His fingertips were immediately pricked by the green and hard stubble.
"Woo..." Xiao Cen's tears, which had been so hard to stop, welled up again and flowed all over his face in an instant. How is it possible? Jiushang... my Jiushang..." He bit down on the corner of the brocade quilt desperately to prevent himself from making a sound, but the eye-catching scream still came from his lips from time to time The overflow made the expression of the reclining person on the couch even weirder.
"You have been sleeping for several days with high fever, cough cough...how did you start hysteria as soon as you opened your eyes? Are you in a nightmare?"
"..." Come on, the sound at the moment is really real, it is absolutely impossible to be an illusion produced while half dreaming and half awake!Therefore, after slapping his face fiercely twice, Xiao Cen got off the bed with his chest spread out, stumbled towards the beauty couch not far away, and plunged into the bed that made him daydream without even looking at it. Si Ye wanted to be in the arms of the maniac, knocked his head away, and coughed a few more times.
"You..." Chu Linqiu opened his phoenix eyes slightly, and looked down at the person in his arms inexplicably. He wanted to push him away, but when he saw Xiao Cen's trembling with extreme fear, When the eyelashes grew, the pain in my heart turned into a pat.
"Don't move...don't move...let me hug...alive...really alive Jiushang woo woo woo... . Could it be that God is merciful... No, no, I, Xiao, have an unforgivable crime, so I will not be taken care of like this. Please, let me have a good look! Lively...... It's really alive..."
After saying that, Xiao Cen reluctantly got up, he knelt beside the couch, held Chu Linqiu's face in his hands and carefully looked at the person who haunted him.
Although Chu Linqiu was able to sit alone on the couch and read a book, his face was still pale and weak, as if a gust of wind could blow him down.Especially when he was hit by an unintentional "boulder" just now, he accidentally lost his breath, and until now he still can't stop the desperately suppressed low cough.
Therefore, after barely easing up, he couldn't help but have a bad look at the reckless "culprit", and even put the scroll aside, closing his eyes and getting ready to rest.
However, it didn't take long before I was disturbed by two very penetrating sights and had to open my eyes again, "Cough... the general has a high fever, so I don't worry about giving Chu a bad breath." ?”
As soon as the words fell, the "dog" in front of me turned into an afterimage, quickly climbed onto the original bed and lifted up the brocade quilt to wrap herself tightly, only the remaining pair of bright eyes that couldn't hide their disappointment could not stop Looking at the beauty's couch, it's ridiculous and pitiful.
Although Chu Linqiu didn't have the slightest impression of him, but during this period of time, he really saw a lot of his shameless skills, and some small ripples appeared in his heart.Seeing this person's behavior very different from usual at this moment, I can't help but secretly feel suspicious, and at the same time, I can't help but want to explore the scene he experienced in his dream.
"You...cough, if you really feel tired, lie down and rest..."
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Cen hurriedly interrupted, "I'm not tired! I'm not tired...I'm not tired...Just, just look at you like this. Right, right? It's because I'm not healthy enough to be by your side to take care of you...but, but I can also watch you sleep here. Jiushang, don't you...do you still want to drive me away? I won't go, I won't go...Xiao Cen swears to God that he will never leave you again in this life."
After all, this person woke up from a serious illness and was exhausted. He only said a few words in a hoarse voice, and then he felt a strong sense of sleepiness rushing over his face.But even so, he still secretly pinched the soft flesh of his palm to help him wake up, so as not to find out after waking up, it turned out that this was Huang Liang's dream.
"..." Chu Linqiu had no doubts at all, if it wasn't for the words just now, this person would have come to grab him so hard that he couldn't tear it off.Xiao Cen's gaze was too hot, explicit and aggrieved, which made people quite uncomfortable, so that even he was upset, so he could only pretend to be angry, picked up the scroll in hand and threw it over, and shouted, "Close your eyes! Otherwise Just get Chu out of this door! Ahem..."
After a seizure, he was so angry that he fell on the desk coughing and panting, and of course Xiao Cen was terrified.
The idiot subconsciously wanted to crawl to the side of the couch to rub someone's chest and pat his back, but he remembered his physical condition in time, and worried that he would be overwhelmed by illness, and it would inevitably make things worse... ...So I could only stand hesitantly by the bed, not daring to step forward
