Stirring up with the old enemy

Say what you say, laugh what you laugh, in the end parting is close at hand.

Chen Jingming's thin lips parted slightly, and two rows of snow-white teeth bit down on the cloth strip soaked in medicinal herbs. With a hiss, his hands wrapped around the wound on his back that had not fully healed, and tied a knot again.He raised his face and looked at the two most powerful men in Yingtian. "Your Majesty, benefactor, the student wants to... send him off."

Hao Chun had already left the door when he spoke.After all, he was a minister of Yingtian, Emperor Yong'an favored him, and allowed him to delay for half an hour to gouge out the flesh and heal Chen Jingming's wounds, but that's all about his face and honor.If you delay any longer, your head will be gone.

Before Hao Chunlin left the Town God's Temple, he turned his head and glanced at Chen Jingming for some reason.

It was that look that made Chen Jingming feel uncomfortable from the bottom of his heart.

"Teacher," Chen Jingming begged with eyes open. "The students just sent him to the door."

Cheng Huaijing's half smile was not a smile, and the voice behind the bamboo hat was also a little lazy. "Oh? The door?"

"Just to the door."

"It's late, Pingle Houda has probably rushed to the official road by now." Cheng Huaijing paused, impatiently let go of Emperor Yong'an's big hand that had been harassing him, and laughed softly. "Mr. Han, what you said is delivered to the gate, I'm afraid it has to be delivered to the gate of Pinglehou Mansion in Chang'an City?"

Chen Jingming opened his mouth, but was stunned speechless.

"Young people are always affectionate." Yue Nanhua dragged his tone, shrugged and smiled. "Why does Cheng Jiawulang treat them too harshly?"

Cheng Huaijing turned his head, this time he looked at the direction of Yue Nanhua for a long time, and after three breaths, he smiled softly: "The pavilion is thousands of miles away, and we have to say goodbye. Some people think that the king knows the meaning of going to Jiangnan."

Emperor Yong'an had ascended the throne for more than ten years, and the nine sons of Emperor Lu who used to compete with him for power had long since died. It stands to reason that he should rest easy.But he is still not married and has no heirs, so all the branches of the Qin clan are ready to move.The sale of officials and nobles on Jiangnan Road was apparently done by Fan Xun, the head of the Fan family in Luyang, but in fact, the instigator behind it was the "ancestor" of the Fan family, the princess who was not favored in the previous dynasty.Ever since the clan released the words to choose the emperor's heir, men and women surnamed Qin have been in commotion. No, even King Anyang, a remote side branch, is not very peaceful in Chang'an City.

How many people are looking forward to the death of Emperor Yong'an?

No one in the world dare to count the buddha demon in a single thought, but everyone knows that there is a head demon hiding under Ying Tian's curtain.That demon was wearing black clothes, smiling maliciously at everyone in the dark night.

Chen Jingming knew that he had violated a taboo and shouldn't bring it up, so he pursed his thin lips slightly, and lowered his head unwillingly.

Cheng Huaijing glanced at him again. "If you really don't want to part with it, you can go outside the temple gate to have a look. If he also doesn't want to part with you, he must...haven't gone far."

Chen Jingming was startled, raised his face, and his face paled for an instant.

"Go ahead, why don't you take a look?" Yue Nanhua held the copper-nickel pipe to his lips again, and the amber cat eyes behind the snow-white happy mask were unpredictable. "Isn't there a saying in the Central Plains that if you don't reach the Yellow River, you will never die? You can go and meet me."

Not optimistic that Hao Chun is still waiting for him outside the door.

Chen Jingming pursed his thin lips again, then suddenly got up and saluted the four distinguished men. "Students want to see it."

None of the four men spoke.

Emperor Yong'an Qin Su waved his sleeves at last. "Go, go, young man, this is the trouble."

Chen Jingming immediately bowed and walked backwards outside the Town God's Temple. When he reached the door, he turned around and stepped over the threshold, and hurried out.

He was panting as he left, afraid that he would not be able to catch up with Hao Chun after such a long delay.

Dense cold sweat oozes from the back of his red body. His body is cold and hot, and the freshly bandaged wound is oozing out again.But he can't care about anything!Ping Lehou is a heartless guy, if he runs a step slower, maybe this guy will slip away again!

This scene seems familiar.

Five years ago, Hao Chun was also ordered to lead troops to the Western Regions, and he had been there for more than four years. When he came back, he almost didn't recognize him, and he would beat him when he lifted his official sedan chair in the street.Fortunately, before the two of them turned to the imperial court to judge, he had already privately asked his mentor to fulfill his infatuated love.Seeing that Hao Chun has not married or discussed relatives for many years, his mentor sneered, and said to him, if Pinglehou really doesn't love red makeup and loves men, then it's Chen Jingming's chance.

This royal bestowed marriage contract is his only chance for Chen Jingming.

Chen Jingming's cold jade-like cheeks were covered with sweat, his breath was thick and heavy, not to mention his clothes were not fully dressed, there was no more inappropriate scholar than him in this world!

But after rushing out of the temple gate, the withered grass rustled in the wind.

Without Hao Chun.

Sure enough, Hao Chun had left.Even a parting word, never waited for him, never whispered a word in his ear.

Chen Jingming stared blankly at the empty intersection outside the temple gate. After staring for a long time, he couldn't help being in a trance.It seemed that in the next moment, the guy would turn his horse's head and come back, grinning at him.She coaxed him again with sweet words, what's wrong, you... miss my master?

Or leaning over again, pinching his lips with calloused fingers, tilting his head and smiling.Hehe, how did my young master not know before, that you are so reluctant to part with me?

Chen Jingming thought about it, his thin lips parted slightly, and he really laughed out loud.

I don't know why a period of lovesickness started, but now there is only desolation left.Hao Chun didn't even give him the chance to see him off at the Changting Pavilion.

**

Half a month later, Chang'an.

The troubled people in Pinglehou's mansion turned on their backs.

Hao Chun stared impatiently at a pair of Qiushuidan phoenix eyes, with one foot resting on the table, and said angrily: "Pei Shishi, are you stupid? I have never thought of you before, and besides, I have already Engaged."

"But brother's dowry, that man did not confiscate it."

A weak willow-colored forehead belt was tied on Pei Yuan's forehead, and he breathed out more than he breathed in, half of his body lay on the soft couch and was carried into Pinglehou's mansion.But she still had to wear a sparrow-colored blouse, with the placket slightly open, and the ribs protruding from under the pale skin could be vaguely seen.

Looking more and more ominous.

Hao Chun stared at him condescendingly, his eyes went from Pei Yuan's pale but powdered face to the large area of ​​skin deliberately exposed, and he couldn't help frowning. "You are insane, you can't stand the cold, can you? Why don't you wear your clothes when you go out today."

Pei Yuan's face turned paler, and his body swayed as if he was about to fall.He lay down on the soft couch and leaned close to Hao Chun, his jaw raised, and Xingzi's eyes showed a rare prayer. "Brother, you are going to the Western Regions this time... It will be a long time, and I may not be able to wait for you any longer. I have nothing to ask for in this life, but I only hope that you can sing "Meeting Joy" for my brother again."

It is not too much to sing a song for a dying man.But Hao Chun is anxious!

He anxiously put down the raised foot, thought for a while, and then switched to the desk table with another leg, his bushy eyebrows raised slightly, and Danfeng's sharp eyes, staring at Pei Yuan. "Master, so what if I sing, so what if I don't?"

Pei Yuan smiled sadly, and groped for a long flute from the splendid quilt. "If elder brother is willing to sing, younger brother is willing to play the flute and sing."

After a pause, he took another long breath, and his voice became more breathless. "...Also, this life is not in vain."

The house of Marquis Pingle was full of drunken people, and the extra idlers had already been arranged by Mr. Wang's servants, only Hao Chun and Pei Yuan were in the hall right now.The soft couch was resting in the center of the hall, and Pei Yuan was standing on the soft couch, looking like a living "love infatuation" in capital letters.

It seems that if he doesn't agree to Pei Yuan, it will appear that he is ruthless.

Hao Chun let out a cold snort from his nostrils, not hiding the coolness in his words. "Pei Shishi, although you and I have known each other since we were young, and I did study in your school, but..."

"I know, I know everything. Brother, you don't need to go on!" Pei Yuan interrupted him panting, but it caused a severe cough. "Brother, I know that all of this is caused by my own family, and now I don't ask for anything. This disease has discouraged me from being competitive all my life. My brother is sixteen this year. The child prodigy is famous all over the countryside, and became an official in the court at the age of 13. In this life, I think that everything is glamorous and proud of everything, and the only time in my life that I am unlucky is only because of my brother."

Pei Yuan held the flute tremblingly, his face, as beautiful as a quiet woman, was pale, he paused, tears seemed to fall from his eyes.He raised his jaw, and there was an affectionate look in his brow that could not be ignored. "I don't dare to blame my brother, I only hate that person. My brother's marriage was originally specially designed by that person. My brother has been chic all his life. If he has to be with that poisonous snake for the rest of his life, my brother...will not accept it."

This imperial gifted marriage was designed, and Hao Chun has now realized it.Probably no matter when he returns to Beijing, Chen Jingming will be there waiting for him.

But Chen Jingming is so good-looking!Those eyebrows, those eyes, that thin waist and long legs!

Hao Chun's body tightened, his Adam's apple rolled, he swallowed his saliva, his voice was a little hoarse. "Who dares to speak rashly about what His Majesty has decided? Pei Shiyi, don't you want your head?"

Pei Yuan lowered his eyelashes and smiled sadly. "Why do you need to speak these official words to my brother? My brother asked himself with sincerity, and now he is a dying person, and he has no other thoughts. He came to the mansion specially before his brother went to war, just to ask for a ensemble with his brother." A song "Meeting Happily". Why does the elder brother treat the younger brother so cruelly?"

Hao Chun touched his chin and rolled his eyes.Is he cruel?It seems that Chen Jingming has never heard of it.

"elder brother?"

Hao Chun came back to his senses and bared his teeth impatiently, revealing two small white canine teeth. "It's all up to you. Just one thing to make clear first, I have a wife, my young master. Besides, my wife is always jealous! Pei Shixi, what else do you want? I'll do it, young master, finish it all at once, don't trick me!"

Pei Yuan's lips also became as white as snowflakes, trembling and trembling, shaking out a sentence. "So that's how my brother sees me?"

Otherwise, how can I see you, Young Master?

Hao Chun rolled his eyes inwardly, but his full lips were raised as usual, revealing two small canine teeth. "Hey, if you really play a song, it's over? You know, I'm in a hurry to clean up the guys. After noon, I have to go to the school grounds to count soldiers. After meeting with the Minister of the Ministry of War, I have to discuss food and grass with Lu Ji. thing."

Leading the army is indeed very busy.

But not so busy!

Pei Yuan's eyes drooped, his brows trembled, he held the purple jade flute close to his lips, and tried a tone lightly.Immediately without speaking, he played "Meeting and Happy" by himself.

"Lin Hua thanked Chunhong too hastily. It was helpless when the cold rain came and the wind came later.

Rouge tears, stay drunk with each other, when will it be heavy.Naturally, people grow up and hate water and grow east. "

A piece of purple jade Xiao Man whispered softly, and the tone was sad.Hao Chun frowned, put down his feet on the table, listened to the tune, and started to chant the beginning.

Hao Chun is endowed with unique talents in this life, not only has good looks, but also has a clear voice.At the age of thirteen or fourteen, he often went in and out of the palace, and when he went out, he accompanied the emperor's chariot. Occasionally, when Emperor Yong'an was happy, he stayed in the side hall of the palace.At festivals and feasts, whenever he speaks, the house is always full of applause.Earlier, when I was studying with Pei Yuan, my husband always liked him to recite poems.

The fragrance of flowers in Pinglehou's mansion was silent, for a while, even the singing of birds outside the painting hall was suppressed by him.

Lu Ji came across this scene just as he was passing through the corridor!The flower hall is open and bright. The young and handsome Ping Lehou is rare and serious today. He is wearing a emerald green silk robe, with five-color unicorns tattooed on the neckline and cuffs, and his long hair is half bunched and half loose. See Huan".And the "beautiful gentleman" Pei Yuan, who was famous as a child prodigy since childhood and was as bright as the moonlight, lowered his brows and eyes, and pressed his pale lips against a purple jade flute, and the sound of the flute was like weeping.

But any individual, as long as he is not blind or deaf, can see and hear Pei Yuan's deep yearning in the sound of his flute.

Lu Ji clenched the fingers holding the pearl curtain tightly, until his fingertips turned white.After three breaths, there was a gloomy sneer between his brows and eyes. "Oh! What a gentleman!"

Pei Yuan had been ill for a long time, and he was still playing this flute with a strong tone, so he couldn't pay attention to the people outside.Hao Chun, on the other hand, saw Lu Ji at a glance, and when he saw him pinching his pearl curtain, he immediately became unhappy.

"Hey! It's just in time for you to come," Hao Chun stopped singing and grinned. "Master, I'm going to the mansion to look for you. Hurry up, come in! Let's figure it out, you're the food supervisor when we go back to the Western Regions. What's the matter, do we have enough food, grass and horses for this year?"

The corners of Lu Ji's lips curled down, and the contempt and resentment on his face could hardly be concealed.He also opened his clothes today, unlike Pei Yuan's pale white that was carefully applied with powder, his skin texture was elegant, revealing a noble ivory white.After all, the little child prodigy of the Lu family was not a cover. In the past, he was quite suave and suave when he was a literary student. Now that he has joined the army, there is actually a saber hanging from the buckle of his belt buckle inlaid with white jade and seven-colored cat's eyes.

"Come in!" Hao Chun waved to him with a smile, and then pretended to take a few steps to welcome him.

Hao Chun raised his legs and walked down the corridor of the flower hall, and he inevitably passed Pei Yuan who was half leaning on the soft couch in the middle of the hall, panting.If he didn't sing, Pei Yuan's purple jade flute also stopped, his chest heaved and his ribs were more clearly visible.If someone is willing to take pity on him, he must stop and look at Pei Yuan first.

But Hao Chun's footsteps didn't spin, he walked quickly, passing Pei Yuan.

Pei Yuan's face became paler by three points, his eyes drooped, and after a long time, he smiled self-deprecatingly with trembling lips.The smile is silent, like a flower that has withered on the surface of a frozen lake.

Lu Ji's eyes were glued to Pei Yuan from beginning to end. Lu Ji saw Pei Yuan's desolate smile.Not only has he seen it, but he also understands why Pei Yuan is so miserable, and why he still smiles self-consciously after repeatedly recommending himself to the door in spite of his face but being rejected repeatedly!

Lu Ji felt pain in his heart.His eyes were burned red with anger, and he raised his head again. Hao Chun, who was walking towards him with a playful smile in his sight, was capitalized [human, scum]!

"Ask me about food and grass? Food supervisor? Heh!" Lu Ji stared at Hao Chun with red eyes, gloomy eyes. "I'm afraid Hou Ye doesn't know something. I have received a secret order temporarily. I am not the food supervisor. I am the one who is going to conquer the West... to supervise the army!"

Hao Chun stopped in his tracks instantly, his pupils shrinking slightly.The corner of his mouth was still grinning, and he looked Lu Ji up and down with a smile on his face. "What the hell, Supervising Army? Why didn't His Majesty tell me?"

Lu Ji dusted off the wide sleeves of the snow-colored cross-collar uniform, and raised his feet across the threshold with a calm expression. "I don't know."

Pei Yuan was panting with his eyes closed on the soft couch, with three thick embroidered pillows behind him, his chest rising and falling endlessly.Lu Ji stopped when he came to him, bent down to help him tighten his neckline, lowered his head and said in a hoarse voice: "Although the weather in Chang'an City is not too cold right now, A Yuan, your body is so weak, you still don't want to be exposed to the wind." good."

When pulling up Pei Yuan's collar, Lu Ji's fingers unconsciously touched Pei Yuan's skin, and they froze for a while, and the smile on his lips quickly turned bitter.

Pei Yuan specially smoked incense before coming to Pinglehou's mansion this time.

Pei Shi Ayuan, a young and noble son with no dust in his eyes, needs a hundred years of incense even to sit quietly, but right now, in order to please this damn Pingle Marquis Hao Chun, he specially smoked the most vulgar and most fragrant cinnamon incense today. !

The sweet-scented osmanthus fragrance is the fragrance of the brand Ruyuxun in the Anxiang Building of Xiaoguanguan.Ruyu is also the young lady who has stayed in Pingle Hou Haochun the most times so far in Chang'an City.

Lu Ji's eyes were so red that they almost bleed. "A Yuan, why do you humiliate yourself like this?"

"No, don't worry about it!" Pei Yuan raised his hand vigorously to open Lu Ji, the dying man had an abnormally coquettish face. "I came to Pinglehou's mansion to see off my brother. You, you are sneering and sarcastic as soon as you come in. Lu Liu, you...cough, you, you are too lenient!"

"A Yuan, don't be upset, it's all my fault." Lu Ji was stunned, and slowly closed his pale, veined hand with both hands, forcibly holding back the soreness in his throat, and coaxed him in a hoarse voice: "You are not healthy. Comfortable, I will take you home first."

As soon as Lu Ji came in, he was busy coaxing Pei Yuan, nothing happened to Hao Chun!

Hao Chun simply stood aside and watched the fun with his teeth bared.He didn't know before that Lu Ji's sweetheart was Pei Yuan?It can be seen that Shen Hutou is a fool!Why is Lu Ji and Pei Yuan crazy because of him, shit, Pei Yuan is really crazy, Lu Ji?It's obvious that Lu is looking at the sick guy Pei Yuan, right?Look at this low eyebrow and pleasing to the eye appearance, dogs are not as good at licking as he is.

However, Lu Ji seems to be unfriendly to him.Be on your guard.

Hao Chun's thoughts turned, but there was still that careless smile on his lips. "Yes, you send him back first. He has been here for more than half an hour. I am afraid that Lao Pei's family is already in a hurry, and they are all waiting for him to return home to drink medicine!"

Pei Yuan's cheeks flushed suddenly, his breathing was rapid, and he turned his head to look at Hao Chun unevenly. "I'm afraid I won't get better from this illness. Brother, you haven't finished singing that song yet."

Why would a dying person be so humble for another person?

Lu Ji hated him so much that he almost gritted his teeth, but he held back, and suddenly picked up Pei Yuan who was on the soft couch, and walked out with big strides. "A Yuan, I'll take you home first!"

"No, Lu Liu, put me down!" Pei Yuan fluttered in his arms like a paper boy, his face was as pale as snowflakes, his lips were red, and he was struggling to turn around.

Turn around and take another look at Hao Chun.

Regardless of Lu Ji's disregard, he built up his chest muscles in his open uniform, and firmly hugged Pei Yuan with his big hands, allowing Pei Yuan's fists to rain down on his chest.He knew that Pei Yuan would run out of strength soon, and he also knew that Pei Yuan's time was running out. The reason why he stubbornly stayed in Chang'an and refused to return home was to wait for Hao Chun to fulfill his promise.

He is so in love with Ping Lehou!

Lu Ji kept carrying Pei Yuan out of the door, and when he was carefully putting him into the carriage, he suddenly slapped him on the cheek.

Pei Yuan was lying half-lying on the soft embroidered mattress of the carriage, his upper body lifted up, and he slapped Lu Ji viciously with almost all his strength.The weak willow-colored forehead band has long since fallen apart, and the young man's long green and pale hair hangs over his temples, dripping with sweat.

"Lu Liu, what do you mean?" Pei Yuan raised his head and stared at Lu Ji, with undisguised hatred in his eyes. "You clearly know that I am obsessed with him!"

Lu Ji didn't dodge or evade, but took his hand and stroked it to the place where his cheek had just been slapped, and rubbed it repeatedly.He bent down, and said in a hoarse voice, "Then... what about me?"

Pei Yuan panted heavily, his eyes were slightly closed, and his pale lips were trembling.

"You are obsessed with an impossible man, and at one point no one in the world would recognize him except him." Lu Ji leaned over, getting closer and closer, his Adam's apple rolling unnaturally. "But have you ever thought, A Yuan, have you thought about others? Have you ever seen the people around you? There are many people in this world who like you, many... are very good and willing to live for you For the man who died."

Lu Ji's breath sprayed on Pei Yuan's pale lips, and his breath almost melted in one place.

Pei Yuan is currently weak and can't push him, but his temper is still arrogant.He raised his eyelids and sneered fiercely. "Another person? In the eyes of my Pei family, Ayuan, there has never been anyone else in this world except him!"

In a word, it is idiot's words, but it also completely misses Lu Ji's life.

Lu Ji raised his eyebrows and trembled almost imperceptibly with his naked eyes.He approached step by step until his lips brushed his lips and his eyes met his eyes. The place under his body also forced Pei Yuan, his gloomy eyebrows and eyes were full of hostility.

"A Yuan, isn't it... you will only see me when that person is dead?!"

The author has something to say:
