It was late at night, and Xun Yu stood under the moon-washed phoenix trees, letting the heavy snow wet the corners of his robe.

After thinking for a long time, he held the buckle and knocked on the door of the Tang residence.

The sleepy-eyed old concierge woke up from his dream, quickly put on his clothes and got up to open the door. Seeing a refined young man, he asked, "Dare to ask your surname, so I can let you know."

"My surname is Xun and my name is Yu. I am sorry to trouble you that the door is open late at night."

The concierge had heard his name before and quickly invited him in.

Tang Ji was flipping through the music scores in the classroom, and was a little surprised to see Xun Yu coming back so late.

"I take the liberty to come to visit Miss Tang, I wonder if she can meet me next time." After bowing to Tang Ji, Xun Yu said.

At this time, Tang Si came out from behind the Moyu screen, his eyes were full of surprise smiles, and he hid his face in a shy manner: "I don't know why the master came to find the younger sister?"

Xun Yu glanced at Tang Ji lightly, and the latter walked out of the room knowingly and with interest.

Immediately, Xun Yu bowed deeply to Tang Si.

Tang Si was shocked immediately, and when he returned the gift, his face turned pale: "Why is this, my lord?"

"Xun should abide by the marriage contract, and return to Yingchuan to marry the girl the next day. In the past, the famous scholar Liang Hong and his wife Meng Guang raised eyebrows and respected each other like guests. Xun hopes to do the same with Miss Tang."

Tang Si felt relieved, and acted like a lady who was dignified and respectful, and replied: "Little sister also admires the stories of Liang and Meng, so this is also what I wish in my heart."

Xun Yu was silent for a long time suddenly, Tang Si didn't know what he was going to say, so he could only wait for him to continue without saying a word, and it took him a long time to hear his voice: "I have one more request."

"please say."

After a moment of silence, Xun Yu cupped his hands: "I hope that the girl will not embarrass Sheng'er. She has been with me since childhood, and her thoughts are pure and innocent. Please treat her as a younger sister."

It turned out to be for this.

Tang Si felt a little disappointed. Every time that woman saw him, she always had a hostile and displeased face. She once tried to drive her out of Xun's mansion, but Xun Yu actually had a deep feeling for her, and was so daring. He kept her in the name of disobedience to the old lady.

From then on, she knew that the girl's position in Xun Yu's heart was beyond her control.

But she couldn't help it in the end, and asked Xun Yu: "Does the young master plan to raise her for the rest of his life? Do you want to take her as a concubine?"

Xun Yu shook his head. He had never thought of this before. He always felt that a girl like A Sheng made him a little elusive. She was so fragile that she was still a child, but she was very strong. She said her heart was higher than the sky, but Never complaining about his situation and background, he would rather treat a girl like this with the attitude of a close friend and protect her as a brother.

Tang Si saw him shaking his head, but how could she know what was going on in the mind of the person in front of him? He just thought he was confused and couldn't understand: "Then since the young master is unwilling, she will naturally want to marry when she reaches the age, can she still stay here forever?" she?"

Her heart was extremely sour and uncomfortable, and she couldn't help but have a tone of condemnation.

"Let her have her own heart. She can go wherever she wants. Whether she follows me or marries someone else, I will not restrain her. If she wants freedom, I will give it to her. If she wants happiness, I can't ask for it."

**

The lake in front of the door reflected the reflection of the sky, the winter wind inadvertently wrinkled the pool of green water, and some snowflakes fell.

Xun Yu saw that A Sheng was concentrating on reading an ancient book, and couldn't bear to disturb her.

After she finished reading the paper, she got up and said to her: "Sheng'er, pack your bags, we will leave tomorrow and return to our hometown in Yingchuan."

A Sheng was completely unprepared, so suddenly he heard the news, and asked in shock: "Is there something important, my lord? Why is there no news of going back at all before?"

"I'm going back to marry Miss Tang Si." He said softly.

As soon as this remark came out, to her, it was a bolt from the blue.

She was caught off guard, she felt trembling all over, and the blood in her mind surged, and she no longer kept her duty as a maidservant, and asked her master aggressively: "Why?"

The tone of voice trembled between words.

She never thought that Xun Yu would marry Tang Si. Although she knew that he would eventually get married, she never expected that it would make people so defenseless.

Most importantly, he married Tang Si, who she hated the most.

Instead of blaming her for her rude questioning, he stopped packing the scrolls and said slowly, "Because I have to marry her."

She didn't understand the meaning of his words and didn't want to think about it. She just felt shocked and angry, and the sense of losing him was overwhelming.

She threw the scroll on the bamboo slips vigorously to the ground, only to hear a crashing sound, and then ran out of Xun Yu's sight, and disappeared in a few seconds.

She ran forward desperately, and ran to a place she didn't know.

Hiding under a big tree, she gasped for breath, couldn't hold back her tears anymore, and simply didn't want to bear it anymore, so she wailed into the air.

"Why is Miss A Sheng in front of my house?" Just as she was crying desperately, a familiar male voice suddenly sounded.

She tried her best to hold back the bursting tears for a while, and when she looked at the person in front of her, it was actually Cao Cao in black clothes.

She looked up, and the big word "Cao Fu" was reflected on the plaque.

It turned out that I accidentally ran to the front of his house.

But for some reason, when she saw him, she didn't care whether she lost her composure in front of this person she didn't know very well, and she didn't care about any woman's reserve and shame. Falling, accidentally covered his face.

Cao Cao approached her and asked softly, "Miss A Sheng, what's bothering you?"

Ah Sheng immediately found someone to confide in, she wiped away her tears, her voice sobbing: "My son, he is getting married."

Cao Cao had actually heard Xun Yu mention it a long time ago, and he wasn't very surprised, but seeing A Sheng crying so sad and hopeless, his heart didn't know why, but he could feel her sadness at this moment strongly, and it seemed to affect him too. own emotions. "Do you like Mr. Xun?" he asked.

Hearing this, Ah Sheng trembled violently and was stunned.

Does that count as liking?She admires Wen Ruo's every move, every word he said to her makes her recall for a long time, every poem he recites makes her yearn for her involuntarily, she always hides outside the door to watch him concentrate on writing at his desk .

She was so afraid that Wen Ruo would abandon her in the future, she wanted to stay by his side all the time, and she was willing to serve tea and water for the rest of her life.

But she didn't know if this was what Cao Cao asked about.

"He is my belief." Ah Sheng thought for a long time before he came up with this accurate answer, "But now he is going to marry that vulgar Tang Si as his wife, and my belief has collapsed in front of me."

She was not reconciled to such a beautiful piece of jade falling into the mud, she never thought that there would be such a woman by Xun Yu's side.

"Everyone has their own difficulties," Cao Cao raised his hand and gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, his voice was low: "Even a modest gentleman like Xun Wenruo is no exception. He is a spotless piece of jade, but in this world This is the biggest quagmire, we are all trapped, and we can no longer escape."

He seems to see all of this clearly, that's why he is so free and easy.

After a pause, he looked at A Sheng again: "He is not only your son Xun, but also the hope and sustenance of his family. For the sake of the family, he has to do things against his own wishes. You can lose your temper Cry, but he can't, no matter how much dissatisfaction and reluctance he has, he can only bury it deep in his heart, because this is his life."

Because this is his fate, no one can untie it for him, let alone himself.

A Sheng raised her head, her crystal eyes were surrounded by misty mist, "What about me? Will I also be trapped by fate?"

The dead leaves on the top of the head were swept by a bird, hovered leisurely, and floated in circles before her eyes.

Cao Cao didn't answer, but hugged her gently.

She was a little startled, but she didn't break free from his arm.

The unexpected warmth of his embrace gave her the greatest stability at this moment.

She leaned on his chest and heard the short and strong heartbeat.

Looking up, she said softly: "No matter what, I hope that this life can be full of joy, love and hatred."

"What a carefree, full of love and hate." He had never heard a woman say such a thing, and he had never seen a woman with such ambition. Stubborn, unwilling, and looking forward to the future, he was reluctant to let her go for a while.

After a long time, she left from his embrace, bent down to pick up the falling leaf, stroked the distinct veins with her fingers, and said with some regret: "My son is going back to Yingchuan to get married, and I want to marry you as well." Farewell, if you have the opportunity to come to Luoyang in the future, you should remember to visit my young master."

His heart darkened, although it was the result that he had expected, but when he thought that he might never see her again, his tone dropped again: "You are the most special girl I have ever seen, I hope you don't forget me."
