Half-dead paulownia

The cold wind suddenly blew up, a strand of long hair fluttered in the night, the fleeting warmth turned into bone-piercing coldness, the thin and frail Xiao Jinmo stood quietly outside the inn, with an invisible expression, confused Thoughts, exuding a little bit of sadness, permeated the wind, flowers, snow and moon in the city.

"Is this the purpose of your coming back?" Finally, he asked what was in his mind, "Are you doing this just for revenge?"

"You can think whatever you want, I just want one result, that is, I want you to go with me." Once again, he clarified his attitude, even unwilling to face Xiao Jinmo's question, but said indifferently .

Xiao Jinmo was silent for a moment, "I can promise you, but I also have one request, that is, let me take a look at Anling Yuhao."

The moment Anling Yuhao was mentioned, Xiao Jinmo's voice became a little trembling, was it because of the cold night, or the unstoppable trembling in his heart?

"What do you use to negotiate terms with me? I told you from the beginning to the end that we will never be friends, neither in the past nor in the future, so do you think I will agree to your request?" The tone began to be a little sinister, even revealing I feel that the man in front of me is too naive and mocking.

"Duguao, don't you want to know more about Ye Lan?" Xiao Jinmo said in a tone of confidence, he was absolutely sure that the man in front of him cared about what he just said.

"What do you mean? Do I know less about him than you?" The tone fluctuated obviously.

"Aren't you curious about what kind of life he lived before he met you? Didn't he tell you that he knew Anling Yuhao before you? If you don't agree, I will disappear forever in this place In this world, you will never get these secrets in your life, let alone threaten to take me away." Xiao Jinmo grasped this only clue, he knew it was crucial news.

"You're lying! Xiao Jinmo, don't think that if I'm too friendly to you, I will allow you to treat me presumptuously and insult Ye Lan." Almost angry.

Xiao Jinmo smiled faintly, "He has a scar on his left shoulder, he likes to eat with bamboo chopsticks in his left hand, he likes emerald green bamboo, he..."

"Shut up!" Dugu Ao interrupted Xiao Jinmo's words as if he was stimulated. Hearing these habits he was familiar with, he naturally knew that Xiao Jinmo knew a little bit, "I'll wait for you. I will naturally come to pick you up today, this is our secret, if you break your promise, you must know, then the people involved will not be as simple as you think.

"I, Xiao Jinmo, have never been one to break my word. It's better for Mr. Dugu to remember his promise." As if reminding him intentionally, he walked back to the inn alone.

Duguao looked at Xiao Jinmo's leaving figure, as if he was still hesitating, and even refused to leave for a long time.

"Boss, what's the matter with you? I see Mr. Xiao... Xiao Jinmo has already gone back for a while, why are you still here?" Fifth Master who was hiding at the side looked at Duguao who had not moved for a long time, and couldn't help but feel a little bit overwhelmed up.

"Why is this so?" He suddenly seemed to be talking to himself, but he was also full of surprise and doubt.

Fifth Master hurriedly put the robe in his hand on Duguao's body to comfort him: "Boss, you are referring to the matter of the sixth son he said just now, in fact... Actually these are not important, he certainly didn't deliberately hide you, it should be If there is any last resort, you don't have to take it to heart..."

"Let's go back." Interrupted Fifth Master's persuasion, "The matter is far more serious than I imagined."

Fifth Master didn't care about the meaning of Duguao's words, and he didn't want to know the meaning of the conversation between Duguao and Xiao Jinmo. He just let himself be by Duguao's side silently, no matter what path he chose to take. , will follow him.

The darkness of the night was finally driven away by the light, and the dazzling light shone into the room, everything began to recover again, and even the air was filled with rhythm.

Midnight also habitually wakes up with the first ray of sunlight in the morning, as if feeling that his body is being suppressed by some heavy object, and he can barely move. He opens his eyes slightly, and then a ball of flame burns in his pupils.

"Guiyue, get off me!" Guiyue roared angrily as she watched the drowsy Guiyue who had climbed onto her bed at some point, blatantly and brazenly embracing her body.

"What's the matter, what's the matter?" Startled by the sudden shout, Guiyue sat up cleverly, with a panicked expression on her face.

"Ghost Moon, do you believe that I killed you?" I felt a creepy voice behind me.

Guiyue hurriedly jumped up from the bed, "Why am I on the bed? What's going on here?" He seemed to be pretending to be crazy and talking to himself, and then ran out the door without looking back.

"Xiao Jinmo, why do you look so unhappy?" Gui Yue ran into Xiao Jinmo just as he ran out of the room.

"It's nothing, maybe it's because I didn't rest last night." Xiao Jinmo forced a smile.

"When you get to Anling Imperial City, you must have a good rest, otherwise Anling Yuhao will feel anxious when he sees you like this." Guiyue said in a worried tone.

"Does he really care so much?" Xiao Jinmo had an incredulous expression.

"Of course, you should know him the most, why are you asking me instead?" Guiyue couldn't help feeling that Xiao Jinmo's question was a little ridiculous.

"Maybe it's been a long time, but I can't feel these small things." Xiao Jinmo suddenly said with a disturbed tone, "By the way, let's go down to eat, the waiter is ready."

The two went to the first floor back and forth, saw Xiao Jinmo's Meng'er gratefully ran over, and handed him a bowl of steaming noodles, "Brother Jinmo, you should eat more and take care of your body, today's meal You can see Anling Yuhao now."

At this moment, Ziye walked down the stairs slowly, came to everyone's side, and sat down as if nothing had happened.

"Guiyue, you didn't rest last night, okay, you don't look very well." Liu Meng noticed that something was wrong with Guiyue's expression.

"No...no, it's okay." Looking at Ziye who didn't say anything, he still said with lingering fear.

Soon, a new itinerary was started, heading towards Anling Imperial City.

(Anling Imperial City)

"Hao'er, where are you going?" Empress An Ruo came to Anling Yuhao's bedroom early in the morning, but she didn't see Anling Yuhao's figure.

"Go back to the empress, the prince left in a hurry early in the morning, and the slaves didn't dare to ask, and I beg the empress to forgive me." A maidservant about fifteen or sixteen years old knelt down in horror.

"Get up, it has nothing to do with you, you can stop the prince wherever he wants to go." An Ruo's gentle tone did not have the empress' airs.

Her son, she will naturally understand, she has heard that the concubine and the others will rush to Anling Imperial City today, so she doesn't need to guess at all, she knows that Anling Yuhao must have gone to greet him early, no one will stop him live him.

"I haven't seen you with the imperial concubine for many days, it seems that a little farewell is better than a newlywed." An Ruo said with a smile on her face, feeling emotional for her son's affection.

It's just that An Ruo didn't know that although it was love, he never gave it to the woman who loved him deeply.

(Anling Capital, Yonghua Capital)

Dressed in red, which is his favorite fiery red, it seems that only such a hot color can ignite youth, dazzle the world, and wear a big bamboo hat, because no one in this world knows that Anling Yuhao's silver hair.

Staring eagerly at the entrance to Yonghuadu, finally a team could be vaguely seen walking towards this side.

Finally, before stepping into the final gate, Anling Yuhao caught sight of Liu Meng who was leading the team.

"Liu Meng!" Anling Yuhao shouted excitedly on the horse.

"Little Huang..." Suddenly remembered that this was in front of a large crowd, "Why did you come in person?" Seeing Anling Yuhao's arrival, Liu Meng was naturally extremely excited.

It seemed that Anling Yuhao's eyes swept past him immediately, and kept looking around the team, his eyes were full of eagerness.

"Xiao Jinmo, that person blatantly appeared alone, probably not just to welcome us." Guiyue jumped off the horse and said beside Xiao Jinmo's sedan chair.

Xiao Jinmo in the sedan chair naturally understood the meaning of Guiyue's mouth, but the expression on his face didn't seem to have much joy, and even his already pale complexion became paler at this moment, and his panicked eyes were flickering with anxiety, He clenched his hands tightly, biting his thin lips with his white teeth, and even his breathing was a little heavy, no matter how he looked, he was so nervous.

"Xiao Jinmo, Anling Yuhao, whom you have been thinking about day and night, is here, why don't you come out?" Gui Yue seemed to tease Xiao Jinmo deliberately.

And Anling Yuhao, who was right in front of him at this moment, walked towards Xiao Jinmo's sedan chair without asking anyone.

"Why are you so sure that Xiao Jinmo is here?" Guiyue looked at Anling Yuhao who was still covered by the black veil of the bamboo hat with some puzzlement.

I saw Anling Yuhao confidently raised the car curtain lightly, grabbed his cold hands without even thinking, and pulled Xiao Jinmo into his arms, "No matter where he is, no matter what he becomes, I will always find him."

Before Xiao Jinmo could even see Anling Yuhao's appearance clearly, he hugged him tightly in his arms, but he could feel the violent heartbeat and the warm and familiar chest.

Ling Zining just watched her husband-in-law embrace another person very calmly, as if she had already gotten used to it, and was willing to accept all of this resignedly.

For the sake of safety, Anling Yuhao, who did not take off the hat, pulled Xiao Jinmo onto his steed, and at this moment his heart regained his sense of calm.

Xiao Jinmo didn't say a word from the beginning to the end, but at the moment of hugging, he felt the heat through the black veil, and finally sat in front of Anling Yuhao, and gently closed his eyes.

Pedestrians on the road stopped to watch the marching procession, not because they had never seen such wealthy businessmen and officials passing by, after all, it was at the foot of the imperial city, and they had seen all kinds of strange things, but there were so many amazing faces in such a procession Such a person is indeed rare, and it can't help but cause some commotion among the passers-by on the road.
