Jade of Rebirth

For a moment, there seemed to be no sound between the sky and the earth, only the slight sound of the night wind blowing through the trees.

Through the moonlight, Yu Li saw Yuan Heng's lonely expression at that moment, and her heart sank little by little.He withdrew his hand from Yuan Heng's, and took a step back without any trace.

"It's very late, I'm going back to my room to rest, you should go back to the palace, I'm afraid there will be trouble if someone finds out..." Yu Li said, turning around to leave, but Yuan Heng grabbed her arm and pulled her back In his arms, Yu Li subconsciously raised his head in surprise, unexpectedly Yuan Heng was waiting for him to raise his head, the corners of his lips curled up, and he turned his face and lowered his head to kiss his slightly parted lips because of surprise.

Yu Li's heart skipped a beat, his whole body stiffened for a moment, he even forgot to struggle until he felt something moist and hot on his lips licking, as if he was about to attack the city.He couldn't help but hide back, and stretched out his hand to push away Yuan Heng who was trying to confine him in his arms.His face was red and his ears were red, as if he had a fish off the shore in his heart, he kept jumping non-stop.

Yuan Heng reached out to touch his earlobe, his voice was gentle and smiling: "Look at you, your ears are all red, and you still want to reject me." The tone was not without complacency and joy, as if he had seen through his lover's prank.

Yu Li reached out to grab his hand, held it in her palm, took a deep breath, as if to cheer herself up, and then said: "Yuan Heng, I admit that I am also tempted, but I don't want to be with you Develop relationships that go beyond friendship."

"And why?" Yuan Heng frowned.

"I still have a lot of things to do, and I'm not sure if you really fell in love with me, or just a whim... Rather than get it and lose it, or never get it and be deceived, I would rather not have that kind of thing myself." Yu Li lightly Gently let go of his hand, with a smile on his face, looking at him sincerely with pure eyes, but his voice as cold as water betrayed him, "Whether it's family affection or love, it's not like you can't live without it." , Therefore, I prefer to live this life alone without any worries."

Yuan Heng didn't expect to get such an answer, and fell silent for a while.

Yu Li suppressed her smile, pursed her lips apologetically, and said, "Sorry..." After speaking, she turned and left without even looking at him.

Tu stayed Yuanheng on the spot, frowning his handsome eyebrows and looking at him with a complicated expression.

……

On March 25th, Yuli arrived at Yu's house in Xifu in a carriage.

In a few days, Yuqing will go to the northwest with the army to defend the frontier. Yuli kept the jade pendant he gave to Yuli last time, and Yuli wanted to find a chance to return it to him, so today he came here specially to see him off, and also came here specially Give it back to him.

When they arrived at Yu's house, the housekeeper said that Yuqing was in his mother Lin's room, and Yuli waited for him to come out in the living room.

After a while, Yuqing and Lin came out together, and Yuli hurriedly saluted Lin: "I have seen Aunt Tang, and say hello to Auntie."

Mrs. Lin liked him quite a bit. When she saw him coming, she had a gentle smile all over her face: "Sit down quickly, why is it that Li'er is rarely free to come and sit down today?"

Hearing this, Yuli glanced at Yuqing who was standing beside her, and then said with a smile: "Auntie was joking, and my nephew often wants to come here, but my father always pulls me to ask me to study, and I'm also afraid that Brother Qing and Ah Che is studying, disturbing them... I came here today because I have something to do."

"Oh? What's the matter?" Mrs. Lin sat up first and looked at Yuli suspiciously.

"The last time Brother Qing came to my room, he accidentally dropped a jade pendant on me. I saw it on Brother Qing once, so I knew it belonged to him, so I came here specially to return it to him today." He said, taking the jade pendant from his sleeve. Take it out, pass it to Yuqing, and said with a smile, "Brother Qing, take it back quickly, don't be so careless in the future."

"So it's like this, Qing'er, you child is too sloppy." Lin said with a smile and reproached.

Yuqing didn't want to take it back, but in front of his mother, he couldn't refuse, so he forced a smile, took the jade pendant back, and said, "Thank you."

"You're welcome." Yu Li smiled at him, and said, "One more thing, I heard that brother Qing is going to join the army in a few days, I saw someone selling swords in the market a few days ago, and saw that sword It is very beautiful, and the blade is even sharper, thinking of giving the sword to heroes, so I bought it specially for Brother Qing."

Then, he turned around and took a sword from Wu Yeti, and handed it to Yuqing: "Brother Qing, look, does he like you very much? When you wear a battle robe and a sword, you must be a majestic man." General!"

Speaking of Yuqing's going to join the army, Lin's smile was obviously a bit sad, and he forced a smile: "I don't know why he is crazy, it's fine, he suddenly wants to join the army, fortunately there is no major war recently, otherwise, It’s like trying to gouge out my heart!”

After hearing this, Yuqing glanced at Yuli and saw that his expression had changed. Afraid that he would feel guilty, she hurriedly said to her mother: "Mother, why are you saying such things in front of Li'er? Well, it's good to speak to Li'er's interest." It's gone. A man has the great wish of being loyal to the country in his heart, and my martial arts are not bad, so there will be no mistakes, so don't worry!"

Then he turned around and smiled at Yu Li: "Li'er, thank you for giving me the sword, I will definitely wear it by my side, use it to fight the enemy, charge into the battle, and earn a lot of military achievements, so that I can live up to your expectations of me .”

Hearing this, Yuli felt uncomfortable, and couldn't maintain her smile anymore, she just said: "Brother Qing, I am the same as Auntie, as long as you come back safely..."

Yuqing listened, with a real smile on her face, and said, "Okay, I promise you."

After talking for a while, Yuli was about to leave, and Yuqing sent him out.

"Brother Qing, you don't have to send me off, I..." Before Yuli could finish speaking, Yuqing interrupted:

"Li'er, I'm very happy, but also very sad."

Yu Li was stunned for a moment, stopped in her tracks, and then lowered her head guiltily.

Yuqing smiled, but her eyes were full of sadness: "I know what you mean...'Return Jun's pearl, thank you for your ruler. Give you a sword of wisdom, hope you will cut off your lovesickness.' Are you trying to tell me this? "

Yu Li lowered his head and remained silent, not even daring to look at him.

Yuqing smiled bitterly and said: "Actually, you don't have to be ashamed of me. In fact, although the result is not perfect, it is worse than I expected. I thought that after you knew my feelings for you, you would feel that I was inferior to a beast. If you have such affection for your younger brother, maybe you will avoid me... But you don't, you can even maintain brotherhood with me, so I am already very satisfied, at least you can leave me some expectations and fantasy."

As Yuqing said, he stretched out his hand to grab Yuli's hand, held him in the palm of his hand, and looked at him tenderly: "As for joining the army, you don't have to be burdened, this is my own decision, and it has nothing to do with you. Relationship. I just hope that after you and I say goodbye, you can still think about me occasionally and write me a letter, so that I won’t fall in love..."

Hearing this, Yuli couldn't help but clenched his hand: "Brother Qing!"

Yuqing saw that he wouldn't let her talk any more, so she stopped talking, smiled sadly, hugged him gently, but quickly let him go: "Okay, I'll send you here, I won't see you off .”

"Well, Brother Qing, take care of yourself." Yu Li nodded at him, then turned and left without any regrets.

Yuqing stood there, looking at his back with deep eyes as he gradually walked away, thinking of a poem by Li Yishan...

The heavy curtain is deep in the hall of Mochou, and the night is long and thin after lying down.The life of the goddess was originally a dream, and the sister-in-law lived without a man.

The storm does not believe that Lingzhi is weak, who will teach the fragrance of bay leaves in the moon dew.It's useless to go straight to lovesickness, but melancholy is madness.

Even if she knows that her unrequited love is completely useless, she might as well be infatuated and feel melancholy for the rest of her life. Yuqing thought to herself, how similar her mood at this moment is to that of Li Yishan!
