Yuanzhong poultry

The night was long and warm, but the dawn came at last, though it sometimes didn't mean light.

After a heavy rain, all the dead leaves in late autumn have fallen.Looking at the figure standing at the door, Yu Bai was silent for a moment, then turned around coldly as if he hadn't seen it.

However, Zhao Jun walked in: "Ah Bai."

"What's the matter, Your Majesty?"

"Your sister has news."

Yu Bai looked Zhao Jun up and down for a moment, then chuckled softly, "What a coincidence."

Zhao Jun was speechless.He has indeed used this reason to trap Yu Bai many times, like a hunter with a sure chance of victory playing with a prey hesitating by the trap, tempting Yu Bai to kiss him with red eyes, enduring tears and pain, and leaning on him to serve others thing.

Yu Bai turned around coldly: "Come in and talk."

Zhao Jun took out a letter from his sleeve, flattened it carefully, and handed it to Yu Bai: "This is a letter from Ruoshui City in the south of the Yangtze River. I personally found out the information about your sister in it."

Yu Bai's expression was calm as usual, and he didn't even reach out to receive the letter: "What is your majesty's condition this time? You might as well just say it."

"Abai." Zhao Jun said in a low voice, "You... are you just so unwilling to believe me?"

"Your Majesty has never had a reason to trust me."

"No...not this time." Zhao Jun was speechless, "I just want to tell you that your sister is doing well now."

Have a good time?Yu Bai laughed sarcastically: "Then what? My sister is doing well, so I don't have to think about her anymore. It's enough for me to stay in the palace for you to play with?"

Zhao Jun was speechless.

Now it seems that no matter what he says or does, it is wrong in Yu Bai's eyes.Yu Bai has countless reasons to question him.Indeed, those things were also done by him, and he was indisputable.

Since there is no debate, there is no need to argue.Zhao Jun gently put the envelope on the table, pushed it towards Yu Bai, and said calmly: "A Bai, you should know that if I really want to do something, it doesn't matter whether you read this letter or not. "

Yu Bai gritted his teeth tightly.

It was he who clearly did something wrong, and he was the one who clearly failed others. Why did he act so calmly, why, why faced him with such a condescending attitude?Zhao Jun looked at him like he was looking at an unreasonable child. Did he think that after a beating and a candy, he could erase all the past?

"Really, that really underestimated His Majesty."

Yu Bai loosened his clenched back molars, looked at Zhao Jun's calm face, left a sneer, and stood up with a flick of his sleeves.He left without looking back, the letter was blown to the ground by the wind from his sleeves and fell under the table.

Everything fell into Zhao Jun's eyes.The thin figure from his back flashed across his pupils, like white lightning in the dark night, piercing his heart with pain.

Zhao Jun stared at the direction that was already deserted for a long time, squatted down slowly beside the spotless table, and picked up the letter that was sent from Jiangnan in a hurry.

.

When Yu Bai saw the letter again, it had been flattened and placed on the table.It seems that people who are afraid of reading the letter are unwilling to even open it. The letter does not even have an envelope, and it is spread flat on the table, with an emerald green paperweight pressed on the corner.

Yu Bai was silent for a moment, then reached out and picked up the letter.

Feng Shishi, who was peeping in the dark, let out a long sigh of relief, thinking that his dog's head was saved.

……

After reading, Yu Bai closed his eyes.

Although it was a clichéd story, if Zhao Jun hadn't lied to him, then the ending could not have been better.

The letter said that after being framed by Jiang Yueqin, her sister was exiled in the rivers and lakes, and happened to be rescued by Qin Xianzhi, the son of a famous family in the rivers and lakes. It is a place where the seasons are warm like spring.

My sister and her beloved live there, and she must be full of joy to be able to get rid of the shadow of the past.

The sun is already warm outside the window, and there is no more wind and waves.He was at a loss in his heart, and suddenly remembered that night when the wind and rain blew up, that familiar yet distant embrace.

A low voice sounded from behind him: "...Ah Bai."

Yu Bai took a step back lightly: "I have seen Your Majesty."

The standard of etiquette he performed was so great that he couldn't find a single mistake, which was very different from the time when he lost his memory.After all, he has spent two years in this deep palace, so how could he be ignorant of etiquette under the influence of his ears and eyes——no, it's the third year now.

Standing on the same spot, Zhao Jun saw the young man who had never bowed his head in the past respectfully bent down to salute, but he knew in his heart that what Yu Bai bent was only his body, not his "unquestionable" backbone.However, he felt an indescribable discomfort in his heart, and he felt a suffocation in his chest. Compared to this, he even hoped that Yu Bai would walk away without showing any face.

He shook his head and said in a hoarse voice, "...get up."

Yu Bai didn't want to wait any longer, but Zhao Jun grabbed his arm: "Ah Bai."

"What's the matter, Your Majesty?"

"I... I have something to tell you."

Yu Bai stood up straight, his black eyes looked at Zhao Jun without any emotion.Under the peach blossom tree whose leaves are mostly yellow, Yu Bai is wearing an old blue shirt, outlining a tall and clear figure of a young man, his brows and eyes are cold and distant, vaguely his appearance that haunts his dreams.

The wind picked up, and a piece of fallen flowers fell tremblingly on Yu Bai's temples.Zhao Jun wanted to reach out his hand out of nowhere, wanting to brush away the fallen flowers for him, just like his ambiguous caress under the burning peach blossom tree in spring.

However, he held back in the end.He watched helplessly as the pale yellow petals drifted down with the wind, disappeared into the bustling rose bushes that were still blooming in autumn, and could no longer be found.

.

Yu Bai didn't intend to pour tea for him, and Zhao Jun didn't mind it, he picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup: "You are not in good health, don't drink alcohol these days."

Yu Bai didn't answer, but Zhao Jun continued on his own: "I have always remembered being on the side of the Red Gate with you all these years. .”

Yu Bai was silent for a long time, as if being reminded of the past.Finally he said coldly: "Your Majesty's praise."

Since Zhao Jun is the emperor, it will never be possible to change back to Qi Zhao.What's more, Qi Zhao is just a one-sided relationship for him.He really didn't need to think about that ridiculous confidant.

Liucheng, Red Gate Pass...

The lonely smoke in the desert, the sunset over the long river, the horse holding the sword...

The youthful years flew by quickly, and the past was full of unrecallable dreams.Yu Bai suddenly realized that he could no longer remember the smell of wind and sand dancing wildly in the sky, and the temperature of ice and snow in the cold winter.

Whether he likes it or not, in the past two years, regardless of resentment or struggle, he has almost adapted to the life in the palace, singing and dancing in the daytime, lying on the soft couch, and drinking in gold cups and silver cups in the spring night.

"Zhao Jun...you are the emperor." Yu Bai said suddenly, "There are so many people in this world, some of them are willing to follow you, begging for even a single glance of your pity, why on earth are you so obsessed with me?"

"In terms of family background, Yu's family has long been run-down, and in terms of temperament, I am withdrawn by nature. Even if I have a bit of face, you will know that time passes by and beauty is easy to grow old. One day, I will reach an octogenarian age. I'm old, I can no longer describe it today."

Yu Bai raised his head slightly, and rolled back with tears.He repeated: "There are so many people in this world, so many people... Zhao Jun, why on earth do you insist on pestering me?"

The tea in front of me was already cold.Zhao Jun was silent for a long time.

He said: "I like you."

Yu Bai seemed to have heard some joke, hooked the corner of his lips, and smiled lightly: "So that's how it is, I really like it."

He said he liked it, so he was forcibly called into the palace, regardless of his will, and later threatened him with the whereabouts of his elder sister.Later, he lost his memory while escaping, and he was held in his palm and played around, made a promise but couldn't give up the imperial power, and tried to deceive him again in vain—there is such a liking in this world.

He gently asked Zhao Jun, and also asked himself: "Do you like me, or do you like me being deceived, humiliated, and played around in the dark by you, hitting the south wall with my head bleeding?"

"Let me go, Zhao Jun, I admit what happened before, I won't pursue it anymore, I just hope you don't disturb my future life..."

In Zhao Jun's eyes, his appearance pierced Zhao Jun's heart like needles.

Since the truth came to light, Yu Bai has always been calm, and has never been so desperate and miserable, let alone saying "you let me go, I admit it" such a compromise.

This is not the Yu Bai he knew, not the high-spirited, humble but proud young man he knew.

Zhao Jun closed his eyes.

"Okay, I'll let you go."

"It's just that I promised you before that I would accompany you to set off fireworks on your birthday this year. I made a mistake before, but this time I want to fulfill my promise. After your birthday, as long as you don't change your mind... I will let you go. "

"I swear in the name of Zhao's royal family. If you break this oath, the country will change hands, and gods and humans will perish together."

He looked at Yu Bai's dazed eyes, and he couldn't tell whether he was sad or relieved.
