Emperor made a pair

"Oh? So, that old guy Boyi is not willing to give up his Sands? That's right, he wouldn't be willing to sell such a good thing easily, not to mention that he is not short of money..." King Xi Quite nerve-wrackingly turning the wine glass in his hand.

Zhao Haiqing said: "I picked the best set of 'Yunfengge' from the tribute porcelain from Yinquan Kiln and gave it to him. He knows what to do next."

"'Yunfengge'? It is indeed a good thing, Brother Huang is really willing."

"If you want to find a good sword, the raw materials can't be sloppy." Zhao Haiqing subconsciously glanced at the place where Yuntian was sleeping, then the corners of his mouth slightly curled up, his eyes filled with warmth.

King Xi noticed his elder brother's expression, and sighed helplessly: "Oh, I think Brother Huang is completely trapped this time... Forget it, I also asked many ways, but there is really no other way, so I just talked to the king of Valais, and said It’s just gold dust, forgive the old man for not daring not to give it.”

Zhao Haiqing couldn't help laughing: "Hua Yao, you are a businessman, not a robber."

"For the happiness of my elder brother and sister-in-law, what's the harm in being a robber?" King Xi also laughed, "I have seen my sister-in-law dance with a sword, she is really magnificent, if the injury on his foot can heal, then I will come again It couldn't be better."

Zhao Haiqing nodded, and couldn't help thinking of the time when he and Yun Tian once drank and discussed swords in Prince Ning's Mansion, that was the day he missed the most...

Just as she was thinking, she saw her lover walking out of the cabin wearing a moon-white tunic slowly, her steps were still a little staggering, and she must have been a little weak at the moment.

Zhao Haiqing was amused and distressed, and took the initiative to ignore the slightly playful eyes of King Xi, and embraced Yun Tian and said, "It's windy here, why are you wearing such thin clothes?"

"Oh...Come out and have a look, I'll go back later." As soon as Yuntian finished speaking, King Xi immediately fetched a fox fur and handed it to Zhao Haiqing, and then said very considerately: "Talk slowly, I'll go Look at the little nephew."

Yun Tian looked at the direction he left, and murmured: "Actually, sometimes I think he's so careful that it makes people's hair stand on end."

Zhao Haiqing smiled lightly and said, "Just get used to it."

The night sea and the starry sky complement each other, and tiny lights flicker on the vast water surface.

The two leaned on each other, absorbing each other's warmth.

After a while, Zhao Haiqing suddenly said: "That's great."

"What?" Yun Tian looked at him suspiciously.

"It's nothing..." Zhao Hai tilted his head and kissed his temples, "Is it cold after standing for so long? Go in and have some hot tea?"

"Okay." Yun Tian smiled and followed him back to the cabin.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Jie Huo happily sitting among a large pile of cloth tigers, who seemed to have been brought here by King Xi.

"Look, Daddy! There are so many cloth tigers! But it's still not as good-looking as the one Daddy sewed..."

"Eh?" King Xi looked at the thing Jiehuo was holding in his arms in surprise, and said in surprise, "I thought..."

"Stop." Yun Tian stopped him with a dark face.

Zhao Haiqing wanted to laugh but didn't dare to, she turned her face away with the corners of her mouth sullen.Yun Tian said bitterly: "You laugh, I won't hit you."

King Xi smiled and said: "Cough... let's not talk about tigers, I have prepared some food and wine, third brother and third sister-in-law, please sit down."

During the dinner, King Xi mentioned the annual harvest ceremony in Valais, which happened to be three days later.In addition to holding a large family dinner, there is also a hunting competition. Every year, the first prize is extremely generous, and everyone rushes to it. However, this competition has a strange rule-non-family couples or brothers and sisters are not allowed to participate.

King Xi said regretfully: "Last year's top prize was a peerless horse. It's a pity that my wives don't know how to hunt, otherwise I can give it a try."

Yun Tiandao: "Even if your wife can hunt, you are not from Valais, so you are not qualified to participate?"

"What's so difficult about it? Ask Boyi for two sets of clothes, and put on a beard, so no one else can see it."

Both Zhao Haiqing and Zhao Huayao had deep-cut features. Yun Tian imagined that they might really look like Valais with makeup on.

"Or...you can ask a local woman who can hunt to accompany you?"

King Xi shook his head: "This is a grand gathering for the whole family. There are so many people. If I use such a method, people will definitely see the clues. Then it will be difficult for the woman to gain a foothold in Valais in the future."

Yun Tian thought so, and nodded in shame.

Just when the two were about to change the subject, Zhao Haiqing suddenly said to Yun Tian: "Otherwise, you and I will go together this time?"

"Ah?" Yun Tian was stunned, "Didn't you say they hate broken sleeves here..."

A flash of inspiration flashed in King Xi's mind, and he said with a smile, "Good idea!"

Zhao Haiqing said: "Yun Tian is so good-looking, so no one will doubt her if she pretends to be a woman."

The corner of Yuntian's mouth twitched wildly: "You want me to wear women's clothing? No."

"Oh..." Although Zhao Haiqing was disappointed, he didn't force him, but told him to eat more vegetables.

Yun Tian felt embarrassed that the other party took such good care of him.Scratching his hair, he whispered, "If this year's first prize is the kind of sand you want... I will agree."

Zhao Haiqing smiled and covered his hand under the table, "Don't force it, I will never ask you to do what you don't want to do."

Yun Tian twitched the corner of his mouth, on the surface he didn't care, but in his heart he was completely moved.

After the merchant ship returned, the two stood at the highest point to watch the fireworks on the shore, and then fell asleep in each other's arms.

But no one thought that Yun Tian's words would become a prophecy.

──The next day, when Master Boyi came to visit with a return gift, he told Zhao Haiqing that the first prize of this year's hunting contest was a bottle of Valais's best top-quality sand. This is what he heard from friends in the palace. The news is absolutely true.

Zhao Haiqing raised his eyebrows and looked at Yuntian, and as expected, he found that Yuntian had a dumbfounded face on his face.

"If Mr. Zhao is interested, you can try to buy the sand from the winner..." Boyi said, "The best hunter here is called Waji, and his wife Lisa is also the daughter of the hunter. Has won the hunting contest two years in a row."

Speaking of this, he was a little embarrassed: "However, my clan has always attached great importance to this competition. Even if we win the first prize, we will not easily give it up to others."

Zhao Haiqing nodded slightly, at this moment Yuntian could not wait to dig a hole to bury himself...

After Bo Eryi left, Zhao Haiqing walked slowly to Yuntian's side, and purposely elongated his voice, "God's will..."

"...That's enough," Yun Tian regretted endlessly, "You just want to see me in women's clothing, it's just a few pieces of cloth, once a man says his word, it's hard to follow..."

"Honey, didn't I tell you that if you don't want to, I won't force you."

Zhao Haiqing was so "understanding" that Yuntian's stubbornness came to the fore, "C'mon, who is showing such a righteous look? Am I going to renege on my debt?"

Zhao Haiqing smiled and hugged him, and pressed a resounding kiss on Yuntian's left and right cheeks: "Since you said so, I can only be respectful as a husband, rather than obedience."

At noon, King Xi sent two sets of local clothes.

Yun Tian's suit is considered a relatively conservative women's hunting suit, but even so, he is still annoyed by the jingling decorations on his head: "Can I not wear this..."

"If you don't wear it, others will think we have broken sleeves."

"We were originally..."

Jie Huo ran in excitedly, looked at Yun Tian, ​​was stunned, and then said in a straight voice: "I'm sorry! I went wrong!" Turning around, he was about to go out.

"Come back to me!" Yun Tian yelled.

"...Daddy?" Jiehuo jumped into Yuntian's embrace in surprise, "Daddy, what are you wearing?"

Zhao Haiqing said: "This is a hunting suit. How about it, doesn't your father look good in this?"

"It looks good," Jie Huo nodded, "Daddy looks good in anything he wears."

Zhao Haiqing smiled from ear to ear, and Yun Tian said with black lines all over his head: "Your mother and I will participate in a hunting competition in three days. You should stay with Uncle Fifth obediently and don't run around."

"Know it!"

three days later.

Valle.Paya Prairie.

The grassland here is greener and more fertile than Longteng's, and the cattle and horses raised are also extraordinarily robust.Looking from a distance, there are countless men and women riding tall horses on the boundless green land, and everyone has an expression of determination on their faces.

Although Yuntian was beautiful, but after all, he was a man's silhouette, so he covered his head and face with a layer of tulle; Zhao Haiqing was originally a tall man, and he looked like a Valais, but the thick circle on his face The bearded man was teased by Yun Tian for a long time.

Only a sound of the horn was heard, and hundreds of horses rushed out together with great momentum, and the sound of horseshoes was like thunder and rolling, like dark waves churning in the green sea.

Zhao Haiqing held the rein with both hands, and Yun Tian's body was wrapped between his arms.

The horse was bumping, and Yun Tian had just done a physically exhausting exercise the day before, so he unceremoniously leaned his whole body weight on Zhao Haiqing.

"... uncomfortable?"

"No," Yun Tian shook his head, "I just feel my legs are sore...it doesn't matter."

Zhao Haiqing pulled the reins, and the horse slowed down, moving forward slowly like a walk.

Although it is much more comfortable, but in this way, the two are far behind the others.

Zhao Haiqing said: "Together with them will alarm those beasts, let's find a place with few people, and my husband will give you a few big ones."

When he spoke, the bearded man moved his chin, and Yun Tian couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"What are you laughing at?" Zhao Haiqing pretended to be serious, "Dare to laugh at my husband, I will go back to clean you up at night."

There is a kind of golden lion on the Paya prairie. They are huge, fierce and cunning, and ordinary hunters will not easily make enemies with them.

──And Zhao Haiqing's target is an adult golden lion by the river.

But obviously, it wasn't just the two of them who discovered the prey.

There is a man and a woman hiding in the grass on the other side of the river. The man is carrying a longbow, and the woman is wearing a hunting knife. They both look very sassy.Zhao Haiqing pondered for a moment, then said: "These two people are probably the Waji couple."

Yun Tianqi said: "...Ah? How did you see it?"

"intuition."

"..."

While the two were talking in low voices, the Wajis also looked over.

The other party obviously didn't pay much attention to Zhao Haiqing and Yun Tian, ​​and the woman smiled provocatively and contemptuously, her narrow and beautiful eyes were full of disdain.

Yun Tian didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "We've been sacked."

Zhao Haiqing said calmly: "It's the challenge, Gu is the king of a country, are you afraid he won't succeed?"

When he spoke, he had already held the longbow in his hand, and he had set his posture.

Waji has also aimed at the golden lion with an arrow, and his wife Lisa is crouching in the grass, holding the scimitar tightly, ready to go, like a beautiful and fierce leopard.

At this time, Yun Tian suddenly discovered that Lisa's hands and feet were well-structured and very strong. Although she knew that a hunting woman would be stronger, her body shape... didn't seem like a woman, but a slender man.

Before Yun Tian had time to think more, he suddenly heard the sound of sharp arrows being shot rapidly.

Looking up, the arrow shot by Zhao Haiqing was obviously three points faster, and there was a faint white light flowing on it, which was clearly infused with internal strength.

Yun Tian was overjoyed, secretly thought that the arrow would go through even a stone, let alone a beast?

His joy didn't last long, because just before the golden lion was shot, the cunning guy suddenly lowered his body as if he sensed the danger. As a result, the sharp arrow grazed its scalp and only penetrated it. ears.

But Waji was much luckier, the arrow he shot was placed very low, and the strength was mastered very delicately, and it happened to be nailed into the golden lion's hind leg.

Zhao Haiqing frowned, and then shot another arrow!

Waji followed, his longbow drawn into the shape of a full moon.

The two let go at the same time, and two sharp arrows flew through the air, aiming to grab the head of the golden lion!

The golden lion was seriously injured. Although he ran away immediately, he was limping and bleeding profusely.Lisa let out a low growl, jumped up quickly and ran towards it, seeing that the hunting knife in her hand was about to stab the golden lion, but──

"Keng──!!"

A long sword stabbed out obliquely, Yuntian turned his arm, and used skillful force to separate the hunting knife, the golden lion took the opportunity to jump up and counterattack, Yuntian used the finger wind as a sword, stabbed with his backhand, stabbing blood in its belly instantly Hole.

Lisa's heart skipped a beat, and she looked at Yun Tian in surprise, she never thought that this "woman" would be so capable, she could cut open the lion's belly with just her fingers!

Zhao Haiqing and Wa Ji arrived later, and to their surprise, Boyi and his younger sister Alna also ran over on horseback, and they seemed to have been watching the excitement for a long time.

The prey was dead, but he didn't know who was responsible for it. It is said that Yuntian gave it the last blow, but if it wasn't for Waji's arrow, he would definitely not be able to chase the golden lion.

Lisa was very excited, but she suppressed her mouth and didn't argue with Yuntian. Her pretty face was flushed and she looked weird. Waji and Boyi were yelling something loudly, and the two were arguing. .

Boyi and Zhao Haiqing have an interest relationship, and obviously they want to stand on Zhao Haiqing's side. He is a businessman and has an excellent eloquence, but Waji is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Let the prey out.

Yun Tian was bored waiting for the two of them to exchange words, Lisa crossed her arms and stared at him angrily.Although it was a fair competition, Wa Ji always shot the first arrow. Yun Tian felt ashamed, so he nodded apologetically to Lisa.

Seeing the belly of the golden lion, Arna let out a soft cry, and saw that the two fingers of Yuntian's right hand were stained with blood, her eyes immediately became admiring.

Boyi didn't know what condition he offered, Nawaji was taken aback for a moment, and then looked at Lisa in embarrassment, but Lisa just shook her head and didn't agree.

Seeing that the woman was really unwilling to give in, Yun Tian faintly thought of giving up, but Zhao Haiqing also spent a lot of energy for Jinsha, and he couldn't bear to see Zhao Haiqing's efforts go to waste.

The most important thing is...he is wearing women's clothes today!Make such a big sacrifice, how can you not get some benefits!

Just when the situation was at a stalemate, the golden lion that had fallen to the ground suddenly moved its paw.

Arna and Lisa were standing one step away from the golden lion, with their backs turned to it, and no one noticed that the golden lion jumped up in the carelessness of everyone, waving its huge claws towards them. Down!

"Get out of the way!"

In desperation, Yun Tian didn't care about revealing his identity as a native of the Central Plains, he yelled, and swung his palm towards the golden lion's head!

He poured almost all his internal energy into this palm, and Jin Shi was beaten to the point that his brains were split apart, turning him into a corpse. Lisa couldn't dodge in time, but Yun Tian forcibly crushed her under her body.

Zhao Haiqing stepped forward in shock, helped Yuntian up and hugged him in his arms, but Yuntian and Lisa looked at each other, and they both saw surprise from each other's faces.

"What's wrong? Are you injured?" Zhao Haiqing asked anxiously.

Yun Tian shook his head and said in a low voice, "He...is a man."

"Him?" Zhao Haiqing was taken aback, looked at Lisa, and suddenly understood what Yuntian meant.

──No wonder, Lisa's limbs are stronger than those of ordinary women. I thought "she" was like this because of hunting, but if you look closely at "her" skeleton, you can find that it is clearly a man's body.

Although Lisa couldn't understand Yun Tian's words, she could understand from Yun Tian's expression that someone had discovered her secret. She blushed and jumped onto the horse, kicked the horse's belly hard, and walked away.

Waji was tongue-tied, and called him in a daze, and then "robbed" Boyi's horse to chase his "wife" as if he had just woken up from a dream.

The two disappeared in a blink of an eye, and the result of the competition became Master Boyi without any suspense, and the golden sand as a prize also fell into Zhao Haiqing's hands logically.

That night Boyi held a banquet at home, and when everyone was drinking and eating meat happily, Waji quietly brought a lot of prey to visit.

He was obsequious and hesitant to speak, until Boyi patted him on the shoulder to encourage him, and he hesitated to explain the whole story.

Yun Tian became curious and secretly asked Zhao Haiqing to translate his words to himself.

It turned out that Waji did have a wife named Lisa. Although she was a woman, she was a good hunter.Lisa's parents died early, and she only has a younger brother who depends on each other, who looks like her.Waji is handsome and strong, and he soon gained Lisa's favor, but in the long process of getting along, Lisa's younger brother Say also developed a heart for Waji.In Valais, homosexuality is absolutely not allowed.Say has been suppressing herself, and even offered to replace Lisa as Waji's "wife" after she was killed by a herd of beasts.At first Waji naturally disagreed, but Say's patience was far better than he imagined, not to mention that Sai was able to hunt when he went out and cook at home, taking care of Waji's life in every detail.After all, Waji is not a heart of stone, so he gradually softened.Finally, after a drunken relationship, the relationship between the two had a substantial development. Since then, Waji has acquiesced in the existence of Say.

The relationship between the two became stronger and stronger, but Sai had to pretend to be a woman outside, worrying about being seen through all the time, it was very hard, but also very happy.

I thought they could live like this all the time, but Yuntian found out Sai’s identity today. Waji was worried that Boyi would tell the story. After thinking for a long time, he finally decided to come and beg Boyi to keep this secret. .

Waji pointed at Yuntian and said, "If Mr. Boyi let us go, I will keep this Central Plains person's matter forever in my stomach."

Boyi is indeed a person who has seen the world. Even though he knew about the man's love affair, he still remained calm. "It's natural. My friend just needs a little sand. You are still the best hunter in Valais."

Waji shook his head in shame, "I just found out that there is someone out there today. He is very good at cutting the belly of the golden lion with his fingers. I am willing to bow down."

After Wa Ji left, Yun Tian said embarrassingly, "Why do I feel like I'm sorry for them?"

Boyi waved his hands indifferently and smiled, "He's not as good as others, what does he have to do with Mr. Zhao?"

Alna sat next to her brother, her beautiful eyes glanced at Yuntian from time to time, and she was still recalling the scene of Yuntian's "hero saving the beauty".

Perhaps because of drinking, Yun Tian's already handsome appearance became more and more attractive. Alna looked at her, her cheeks burned, and she even felt that although Yun Tian had a lame leg, he was the tallest, strongest and most powerful person she had ever seen. handsome man.

Finally, when Zhao Haiqing proposed to leave Valais the next day, Alna bit her lower lip and whispered a few words to her brother with determination.

After hearing this, Boyi was dumbfounded for a moment, and then laughed out loud with relief, until Arna lowered her head, and the blush floated from her cheeks to the base of her ears.

"Master Zhao, I wonder if your brother is married?"

Zhao Haiqing was taken aback for a moment, and immediately understood that Bo Eryi, an old guy, wanted to match Yun Tian, ​​and the matchmaker was his own sister.

Good fellow, Yun Tian's charm is indeed undiminished, even this little girl with upturned nostrils dares to covet him, how can it go on like this?

Zhao Haiqing narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "My brother got married five years ago and has a son. The family of three is very happy. We all envy him."

Boyi didn't seem to understand what Zhao Hai said, and said calmly: "It's very common for people in the Central Plains to have three wives and four concubines. My sister was spoiled and spoiled since she was a child, and I am reluctant to let her go to the Central Plains to be a concubine, but come first, then come. I always understand the truth, as long as Mr. Zhao is willing to treat her well..."

"Master Boyi doesn't understand what my brother means," Yuntian interrupted him politely but without hesitation, "When I married my wife, I made a solemn oath to him, and I will only have him in this life." One, if you marry someone else, you will be punished."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Zhao Haiqing casually, as if he had made a promise to him, which made Zhao Haiqing feel warm in his heart.

Arna's face froze, although she didn't understand what Yun Tian was talking about, she also knew that she was rejected.

The girl was thin-skinned, she stood up resolutely and ran back to the boudoir, leaving the three men looking at each other and smiling wryly.

The trip to Valais ended soon, and Zhao Haiqing and his party returned to Longteng just in time for the eve of the Spring Festival.

The imperial city was originally a land of abundance, and the Spring Festival is especially lively, it is all dazzling red, the joy seems to overflow from every street and everyone's face, the first time Yun Tian saw this scene, his mind immediately Four words popped out - peace and prosperity.

A family of three rode in the same carriage, Zhao Haiqing held Jiehuo in his arms, and whispered in Yuntian's ear, "I finally... waited until the day you came home."

The crowd was noisy, and Yuntian suddenly felt that the whole world had been condensed into this small space. His lover and children were by his side, and they would never be separated from now on. This feeling of happiness was indescribable.

He couldn't help but took Zhao Haiqing's hand and shook it vigorously.

"……I am back."
