What's wrong with GL

That night, after Nangong Yu handed over the invitation card to Jun Xizhu, he waited at the agreed Lianli River for more than two hours, and it was not until midnight that someone came.

But this person was not Jun Xizhu, but a person who surprised her - Marquis Wu Ouyang Mingyue!

At that time, Ouyang Mingyue was accompanied only by a guard leading a horse. When he passed the Biyi Bridge on the Lianli River, he saw Nangong Yu. Said: "Are you waiting for someone?"

After seeing Nangong Yu nodding her head, Ouyang Mingyue looked up at the sky and said slowly, "It seems that the person you are waiting for probably won't come."

The bottom of her heart was filled with unspeakable bitterness. Nangong Yu knew that Jun Xizhu would definitely not come, but she was not familiar with this Wuhou of Nanchu, who was all over the world, so she unconsciously brought a few words into her words. Alienated like a cover-up: "Maybe... Maybe she was delayed by something..."

Hearing this, Ouyang Mingyue let out a rare laugh. She didn't know whether she was laughing at Nangong Yu for being too stupid, or because she was too naive. After laughing, she strode forward. After walking for a few steps, she suddenly turned around and asked: "Since you are alone and I am alone, how about watching the fireworks with me?"

Nangong Yu was about to shake her head to refuse, but she stopped when she saw him, and continued: "Don't refuse me in a hurry, maybe after you accompany me to watch the fireworks, I can give you a surprise."

After saying that, Ouyang Mingyue stopped uttering a few words and led the guards to walk out of the city. Nangong Yu hesitated for a while before following, and the three of them went out of the city all the way until the bank of the Tianzai River before stopping.

At a glance, I saw a small boat standing on the river, with drinks and food already set up on the low table in the boat, Ouyang Mingyue boarded first, and after Nangong Yu also sat down, the guards pushed the boat towards The center of the river, drifting away along the river.

Ouyang Mingyue poured herself a drink, and didn't stop until the boat arrived in the middle of the river, listening to the bell from Shangjing, without saying a word.

Nangong Yu didn't know what to say, she didn't want to talk, she kept drinking, when she heard the bell, she turned her head to look in the direction of the capital, and then she saw Ouyang Mingyue, but she was silent Just as he was about to ask questions, he suddenly heard explosions in front of and behind him.

Nangong Yu was startled by the sudden sound, looked around, but saw the river surface in the dark, countless boats floated at some time, and these boats were filled with fireworks tubes, and each boat was filled with fireworks. Sergeants in armor held torches and lit these fireworks tubes one by one.

Fireworks fluttered all over the sky, almost illuminating the entire Tianzai River. After blooming that short-lived brilliance, they gradually disappeared into the boundless darkness... just like... just like the power over Southern Chu The fleeting smile on the face of Ouyang Mingyue, Marquis of Wu, was like...

Nangong Yu only took one look at that smile, and then was buried in the night, but even just that one glance made Nangong Yu feel... probably, she will never forget it in the countless years to come. Can't you miss the person in front of you and the expression of laughter in tears?

"You...you..." Nangong Yu was anxious to say something comforting, but felt that it was inappropriate to say anything, so she had to think about her words, but she had already drank a few glasses of wine. She was so excited that it was difficult for her to utter a complete sentence.

"I'm fine." As the fireworks disappeared, Ouyang Mingyue's expression and voice returned to normal, and after he drank two more glasses of wine, he said slowly: "I just remembered a promise made many years ago, that's why I'm like this." His gaffe made Mr. Nangong laugh."

"What... what agreement?" Nangong Yu felt that she must be drunk, otherwise, how could she have the courage to ask about the old affairs of Marquis Nanchu?You know, she doesn't even dare to reveal her heart to the woman she likes...

Unexpectedly, Ouyang Mingyue did not refuse to answer this question. With a glass of wine in his belly, he recalled in words: "I made an agreement with someone back then to accompany her to enjoy the thousands of city fireworks..."

Nangong Yu shook her dizzy head and asked, "What about her?"

"She..." Ouyang Mingyue pointed to the river not far away, and said, "It's just below here."

"what……?"

"She has been gone for many years before me." Ouyang Mingyue put down her wine glass, looked at Nangong Yu who was already drunk, and said slowly: "So, I still have to thank Mr. Nangong, otherwise, this year's fireworks will be another one. I watched it alone..."

"You even want to thank me for this?" Nangong Yu moved her body, trying to make herself sit upright, she didn't want to show herself drunk, she wasn't sure if her wine neck would be at such a time Crying aloud in this kind of place, I had to keep looking for words: "How can you thank me?"

"How can I thank you?" Ouyang Mingyue sat with folded arms, thought for a while, and said, "How about I give you your favorite gift?"

"My favorite?" Nangong Yu automatically ignored Ouyang Mingyue's words after hearing the first few words, and kept shaking her head: "I like it, you can't give it to me."

"Tell me, what do you like best? Let's see if Ben Hou can give it to you..."

"I like...I like Miss Xiao Lingxue...Can you give it to me?"

After Nangong Yu said this, she passed out drunk. She didn't know that at the same time, Jun Xizhu was standing by the Lianli River, setting up a lotus lantern by herself. After reaching the capital city, drifting across the moat, and flowing into the Tianzai River...

Just as the lotus lantern was floating from the moat into the Tianzai River, Chu Xi rode back to the capital. When her horse's hooves stepped over the suspension bridge on the moat, countless dust splashed up and fell into the river...and landed there. On a lotus lantern, the flickering lights on it were extinguished...

Chu Xi came from Qiuchang Pass and was intercepted several times by Beiqi soldiers. After losing dozens of soldiers, she finally returned to the capital wounded. The first time she entered the city, she went straight to the palace. After waiting for two full hours, I finally saw King Chu at the cock crowing.

"What?!!! Are you saying that the three cities of Jiang, Yi, and Qingyuan have fallen into the hands of Beiqi? And Qiuchang Pass is at stake?"

After hearing Chu Xi's urgent report, King Chu was so shocked that he almost fell off the throne. He pointed at Chu Xi with a trembling hand, his face ashen ashes: "If Qiuchangguan falls, the Northern Qi army will go deep into the hinterland of Southern Chu." , the remaining two passes, Yulin and Taopei, stand in front of Shangjing. If Yulin and Taopei lose, the Northern Qi army will go straight to our southern Chu royal city..."

Although the king of Chu has lived like a puppet these years, he is not stupid. At least he knows about the branch of the city checkpoints in Nanchu, and he also knows the military importance of these city checkpoints. Facing the tragic situation, he hurriedly summoned the ministers of the DPRK and China overnight, and began to discuss matters such as the deployment of troops for support.

Ouyang Mingyue was also on the list. He didn't make a sound after listening to Chu Xi's battle report. Jiang Taiwei, who was in charge of the military in the court, was also from Marquis Wu. Since Marquis Wu didn't move, he followed suit as a mute, instead It was Prince Chu Zhuo who reacted the most violently: "Princess Yonghui insists on going her own way, disregarding the safety of thousands of people in Southern Chu. According to the law, she should be punished severely, otherwise, it will be difficult for the people to complain!"

A servant who was usually quiet and quiet in the court also came out and said: "General Sikong Ping of Zhenbei has been defeated in a row and has few generals. He should change his generals first and then help the army..."

……

All of a sudden, the various cities in the DPRK began to argue. Some people supported sending reinforcements to Qiuchangguan, some people asked for a change of generals, and some people couldn't wait to recommend candidates who could take up the post... Only Ouyang Mingyue's faction Has remained silent.

Chu Xi didn't speak anymore, she just silently watched these noisy and arguing people, feeling extremely sad in her heart - before stepping into the capital, she thought that although the court was torn apart and rotted, at least these People still have a conscience, and they will take into account the life and death of thousands of people in Southern Chu, but in reality?Although the princes and ministers of the Manchu Dynasty spoke high-sounding words, they were all fighting for power and profit. They only cared about the tens of thousands of Zhenbei Army in the hands of Si Kongping. Who cared about the life and death of the people in the world?Who cares about the survival of the entire Southern Chu Kingdom?

Finally, Chu Xi cast his eyes on Ouyang Mingyue, and after thousands of struggles in his heart, he finally raised his footsteps, walked to Ouyang Mingyue slowly, lifted up his clothes, knelt down slowly, touched the ground with his forehead, and begged : "Please ask Marquis Wu to increase his troops at Qiuchang Pass, and save the people of Southern Chu from suffering..."

Ouyang Mingyue silently glanced at Chu Xi, suddenly let out a long sigh, got up and flicked his sleeves, and walked out of the palace hall without looking back. From a distance, Chu Xi heard his voice coming along with the night wind: "Is it right? The temperament of accomplishing great things can only kneel and beg for help..."

As soon as Ouyang Mingyue left, many officials in the hall began to leave one after another. In a short period of time, more than half of them left. Except for those who had been arguing before, only Chu Xi was alone. Lingling knelt there.

The King of Chu looked at her for a while, and drove away angrily. When the Prince Chu Zhuo left, he spat several times and cursed loudly: "I never thought that there would be such an unscrupulous person from my Chu family who would kill me like this!" Father and enemy kneel..."

Seeing that all the princes and officials of Southern Chu dispersed, and there was no conclusion to such an urgent military situation, Chu Xi couldn't help but feel disheartened—disappointed with the entire court of Southern Chu, so he hurried back to the Princess Mansion , just want to see her military adviser as soon as possible, she knows, the military adviser has always been smart, there must be a way to solve the current predicament...

Unexpectedly, when Chu Xi returned to the mansion, she did not see Jun Xizhu. Only after the guards told her did she know that Jun Xizhu had left the mansion as early as dark to watch Lan Ye The lanterns are gone.

Seeing that the sky was about to dawn, the important matter had not yet been settled, and her military adviser had not returned overnight, Chu Xi felt anxious and angry, flicked his horsewhip, and drove the horse along the streets to find the past...

From the east of the city to the west of the city, from the main street to the alley, after searching for it for more than two hours, it was not until the sky was bright that they finally found someone on the Biyi Bridge over the Lianli River...

Jun Xizhu was dressed in white, standing there alone, looking at the river under the bridge, she didn't know what she was looking at, her back was bathed in the morning light, she looked very lonely, as if she had been standing here all night, Watched all night, waited all night...

Chu Xi was very angry. She thought that when she found Jun Xizhu, she would definitely express all her anger and dissatisfaction... But she didn't expect that when she saw this scene, her eyes were inexplicably wet, and all the emotions in her heart All the anger disappeared, replaced by reluctance and heartache, and even kept cursing herself: Damn it, how could I be angry with Axue?Why would you want to scold her?how come……

Chu Xi tried to adjust her rapid breathing, suppressed all the impatience in her heart, stepped forward a few steps, and tried to say to her in the most apologetic voice: "Axue, I'm sorry, I'm late..."

But before she had time to speak, she saw Jun Xizhu turn around when she heard footsteps, and slowly said in a tone of surprise or irony: "Yo, you're finally back?"

"..." The words he was about to say were blocked in his throat, and Chu Xi also knew that he was wrong, so he lowered his head and said softly: "I came back late..."

"Then you still know that you want to come back?" Jun Xizhu felt very angry. She is not an ordinary daughter who doesn't understand the world, and she doesn't want Chuxi to come back to accompany her through this blue night... But at least, at least there should be Shall I send a message back?At least it shouldn't be her tossing back and forth between hope, expectation, disappointment and despair... isn't it?

Seeing Jun Xizhu's anger was extremely strong, Chu Xi didn't feel angry anymore, but rather felt aggrieved, so he could only murmur, "I've been looking for you for two hours..."

"You...you..." Jun Xizhu was about to vent his anger, but Chu Xi suddenly said this, and was almost choked by his own words, saying 'you...you...you' several times in a row, Only then did he suddenly realize that His Highness felt that he had been wronged, and his fullness gradually disappeared, and finally turned into a sigh, cursing: "You idiot, don't you know how to send someone to find me? You have to find it yourself..."

At that time Chu Xi was anxious, but he forgot about it, so he kept silent and let Jun Xizhu scold him. Seeing that it was still early and there were few people around, he took a step forward and couldn't help but give Jun Xizhu a hug.

Jun Xizhu didn't expect Chu Xi to be so bold and hug herself in broad daylight, so she couldn't bear to scold her, so she could only say: "If you can't find me in the future, just let me come to you... "

Hugging the person, Chu Xi was a little reluctant to let go, and all the suppressed thoughts and loves emerged together, and all merged into this hug: "The vast crowd, how could you find me? "

Jun Xizhu couldn't bear to break away from this embrace, so she could only use some rationality, thought for a while, and said vaguely: "If you stand taller, I can find you."

"Then how high do you have to stand to find me?"

"Of course I'm standing at the highest place in the world. When your name spreads all over the world, I will naturally come to find you..."

At this time, neither Chu Xi nor Jun Xizhu took this question seriously. One asked casually, and the other answered casually and irrelevantly. Looking for each other in the vast sea of ​​people.

And they never expected that this short hug after a long absence would fall into the eyes of a caring person by such a coincidence—if Jun Xizhu had eyes behind her back, she would see that young man who happened to be walking slowly from the corner of the street. If so, she would definitely remember that not long ago, she molested a young man in brocade clothes in the Hero Building. . .
