Fate is easy to tie, not easy to solve

Wuling Pass was much cooler at night than during the day, so Chu Hong tightly wrapped her clothes.During the hot day, he only wore single clothes, but now the slightest bit of cold seeps through.Mao San was really drunk, and he staggered and fluffed along the way.Coming out of the soldiers' barracks, Chu Hong looked at Mao San's appearance, frowned, and said, "General Mao, if you are always like this in the army, how can the soldiers be convinced?"

Mao San trembled, his drunken eyes were mostly sober, Chu Hong called him General Mao instead of Big Brother Mao, just to remind him that this was not an ordinary joke. "General, Your Highness, you know that I, Mao San, have only this little hobby. Besides, Wuling, a place where nothing shits like a bird, has nothing to do for fun, but I promise that I will never delay the business. Today is His Highness coming to be happy, so drink more A few sips, I still have a sense of proportion on weekdays."

Chu Hong didn't even look at him, her face was expressionless, "Wuling is an important place on the border, if there is any disturbance, you must be alert. How can such an important task of protecting the family and the country compare with having fun!"

Mao San bowed his body, swallowed his saliva, "Your Highness is right." How could he have forgotten that beside him was the God of War, a man killed from the dead.

Chu Hong's face softened: "I believe that Brother Mao understands these principles better than I do. Isn't it because of the defense of the border guards that Chu can be what it is today?"

The two of them boarded the tower, and under the darkness of night, they could faintly see a faint fire in the distance, that was the Nanman tribe a hundred miles away.

"What happened to them?" Chu Hong looked at the light in that direction.

"Last month, they lost a horse and insisted that they entered the pass and asked us to open the city gate to search, but they gave up because they couldn't produce any evidence," Mao San said.

Chu Hong was a little annoyed, "Why didn't you report this incident?" Whether it was a big deal or a small thing, it might lead to a war if you were not careful.

"Your Highness, don't you know that Master Xu is responsible for reporting the news. I saw him writing letters many times and thought he had already reported it. Maybe Master Xu didn't report it because he thought it was not a big deal and could be resolved." Mao San Also feel strange.

Chu Hong didn't speak. He had received reports from Xu Shimin in the past, but he didn't have this one. He really didn't feel the need to report it as Mao San said.

"In the future, no matter how big or small the situation is, we must report everything in detail," Chu Hong said.

"Well, good." Night Breeze lifted Chu Hong's clothes and flew them up.Against the backdrop of the night, his handsome facial features and stalwart body made him no longer the childish boy he was four years ago.Mao San seemed to see a red flame burning between his foreheads.

The war four years ago made him a general from a small squad leader.When the morale of the enemy army was high and our army was in a state of uncertainty, he gave an order: 100 taels per enemy head.saved the situation.But what shocked him was not this, but when the winner was determined to be rewarded by the leader, he sent people to arrest and kill the soldiers who were first moved by his "100 taels of song"!Mao San remembered what he said in front of the soldiers at that time: The two armies are at war, whoever disturbs the morale of the army, kill!Anyone who puts military duties behind interests for self-interest will be killed!

Those few people were killed and other soldiers who still wanted to be rewarded according to the leader were still rewarded with silver taels, which not only did not break their promises, but also preserved the dignity of the soldiers.From this moment on, his emperor has only one, and only this.

In the courtyard, Xu Shimin looked at the pomegranate tree and drank another glass of peach blossom wine.The bitterness is poured into the throat together with the faint aroma of the wine. Although the peach blossom wine is good, it is very easy to drink, so don't be greedy.Chu Hong didn't come to Wuling Pass very often, including this time, it was only three times, but every time he came, he would bring him a pot of peach blossom wine.Just because he once said: There is no Dukang wine in the world, a glass of peach blossom brewing in leisure time!But how long ago it was, he remembered it, but he himself didn't take it to heart.

He was three years older than him and became his companion.At that time, he was not yet a prince, but only a little prince.Although everyone said that he was destined to be the emperor of Chu, he was the most precious among the princes.When His Majesty ordered to select the eldest prince's companion from among all the heirs of the university scholars, he had no intention of Chu Hong, but the second prince Chu An.Chu An is not as smart as the other princes, and looks a bit dull, but he just wants to be his companion.When he told his father what he thought, he didn't expect his father to lose his temper inexplicably, picked up the whip and hit him three times heavily.Said, "No matter what, you must win the eldest prince's companionship for me, otherwise your legs will be broken!"

At that time, he was very puzzled, why he should not be the companion of that person.And my father was originally a general, why did he become a bachelor when he came to the imperial city?

He became the companion of the eldest prince very smoothly, but he was full of doubts, and after a few months, he forgot the fact that he didn't want to be that person's companion in the first place.Unexpectedly, he and the eldest prince became friends who talked about everything.

In that year, the peach blossom wine in Changzhou became the national wine.On His Majesty's birthday, Chu Hong secretly took out a cup to him and said: This is a good thing.The aroma of that kind of wine really intoxicated him, and after drinking that glass of wine, what he said was that sentence: There is no Dukang wine in the world, and a glass of peach blossom stuffing in leisure time!

Soon, the eldest son, mother and concubine were poisoned to death.The ruts of history have changed and nothing is the same anymore.He was only thirteen that year.

The wine of that day and the love of that day, just like those years, can only be used as a memorial in the painting, and cannot be found or returned.

The nights at Wuling Pass are always bitingly cold, and he is still not used to it after four years.

Someone behind him took a cloak and put it on him carefully. "It's so cold, why don't you go back inside?"

Xu Shimin knew who was behind him without turning his head.He didn't speak, raised his glass and wanted to drink.Fang Zheng sat down opposite him, stopped his hand, and took the opportunity to hold the hand that he thought about day and night, secretly happy in his heart.The hand in his hand was not as cold as a human hand, but like a piece of ice. "Why is it so cold!"

Fang Zheng looked at him, and Xu Shimin also looked at him.Only then did Fangzheng see that Xu Shimin's face was very red, which was different from the coldness of his hands!Must have been drunk.Fangzheng sat beside him, and Xu Shimin leaned over like a child, looking at him with wet eyes, "Are you here?"

Fangzheng put his arms around his waist and pulled him into his arms. "I'm here." As she spoke, she kissed him lightly on the forehead. He was the most obedient and closest to himself only when he was drunk.

"Father forgave me, and he asked me to take you back to have a look."

The person in his arms didn't move, only the sound of light breathing, Fangzheng smiled, and fell asleep just like that.Long time no see, he doesn't miss him at all?He was a majestic seven-foot man, but he was defeated by him, and he was willing.

Fang Zheng recalled the first time he and Xu Shimin met, five years ago.Your Majesty summons the world, and the people of Chu State should stand up for foreign thieves who insult our country's prestige.At that time, his father wanted him and his elder brother to learn how to do business. He had no intention of doing business, so he ran away from home in a fit of anger.It happened that Chu Hong led the army passing by, so he participated without hesitation.

He was eighteen that year, and Xu Shimin was also eighteen.Xu Shimin and Chu Hong were almost inseparable, and he had been standing beside Chu Hong with a calm expression on his face.At that time, he was among the many soldiers, looking at that man, he felt like a refined military advisor.

He has always loved martial arts, and gradually emerged in the army, and finally became a close soldier of the general, and Wu Mu was with him.He finally got closer to the military division.

When the two armies were at war, he always searched for that person intentionally or unintentionally. It turns out that the military division does not know martial arts!In that enemy raid, in order to protect him, he was shot in the back by a bow and arrow and almost died.But he thought it was worth it, and the man began to notice him.

The army was victorious and returned to the court. He followed Chu Hong and was incorporated into his personal dark guard.Later, he wrote a letter to tell his family that he liked a man. At that time, his father replied: "If you disobey your son and ruin your family style, if you don't cut off contact with him, don't set foot in my Fang's house!"

It has been five years since he never returned to Fang's house.Unexpectedly, my father let go and admitted their relationship.Fangzheng was overjoyed, the night wind blew, and the person in his arms trembled slightly, Fangzheng hugged him tightly, kissed him lightly on the lips, and smirked contentedly.The night in Wuling City was really cold, Fangzheng carried Xu Shimin back to the room.

Chu Hong and others stayed in Wuling City for three days, watching the soldiers drill and defend.Sure enough, everything was in order, and there was no perfunctory place.Chu Hong was very satisfied, he had always believed in Xu Shimin, and he did not disappoint him.

Since Chu Hong's visit was private on Weibo this time, and because of his special status, it was inconvenient for more people to know about it.So, on the fourth day, they left Wuling Pass and returned to Beijing.

Along the way, he was listless and talked less, presumably his heart hadn't come out of Wuling City yet.

Wu Mu couldn't help laughing at his dumbfounded appearance, and wanted to make fun of him again.He sighed and said: "This Xu military division is as good as it used to be. It is boring to train soldiers all day long in this bitter and hot place. I can't guarantee that he has been in love with a little brother in the army for a long time!"

Fangzheng's originally stunned face immediately became energetic, "Nonsense, he is not that kind of person."

Wu Mu asked: "Really, but why do I think Xu Junshi is very cold to you?"

Fangzheng snorted and said, "What do you know, you can't see us when we are together!"

Wumu said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Naturally, you said those self-deprecating words when you slept in the bed, and we outsiders naturally don't know, so let me talk nonsense." Covering his mouth and laughing.

Chu Hong couldn't help but chuckled, Fang Zheng was blushing at that moment, he didn't mean that!

Seeing him like this, Chu Hong looked like an overcooked shrimp, and couldn't bear to make fun of it anymore. "Shimin is really cold by nature, and he always expresses less than he thinks." Especially since five years ago, Xu Shimin's temper has become more and more cold.

Fangzheng hummed and thought, yes.

Walking to the fork in the road, Wumu looked at the road on the left, which was the road to Yongzhou, and the road on the right was to Zhuzhou, which could be reached in a few days.However, Emperor Hui had to take a detour to return by the same route, so he was not sure what Chu Hong meant.

"My lord, where are we going?"

Chu Hong was looking at the road to Yongzhou. It seemed that because there were few vehicles and horses passing by, that road obviously had more weeds than the other one.Chu Hong looked in the direction of Yongzhou, giving the impression that what he was looking at was farther than Yongzhou.

Chu Hong withdrew her gaze, tightened the reins, "Go to Zhuzhou." She clamped the horse's belly with her legs, and ran forward quickly.

Fangzheng followed closely behind, Wumu rode forward for a while, and looked back.Yongzhou used to be Jialing City, and Jialing City was the fiefdom of the Second Prince Chu An.

Fangzheng saw that he didn't keep up with the class, and shouted, "Haven't you kept up?"

Wu Mu turned his head and rode his horse to follow.

Under the fiery sunset, on the wall of Wuling City, a man in childlike clothes held his hands behind his back, looking to the north with deep eyes.
