The weather was fine that day, Jiang Jintang sat on the table and watched the people below play polo.

The teenagers were wearing brightly colored unlined garments, looking at them in high spirits under the transparent sunlight.

Jiang Jintang took a sip of tea, Qin Xu came in from the side, opened the gauze curtain, and said, "It's really not easy to invite you out, our Majesty can't wait to see you all the time."

Jiang Jintang paused: "What does General Qin mean by that?"

"The Duke Dingguo's mansion has been repaired two days ago, but Mr. Jiang still stays in the palace. It can be seen that His Majesty is really ashamed of the Jiang family, otherwise he would not be so honored and favored." Qin Xu sat opposite Jiang Jintang. Looking down, looking at his delicate eyebrows and eyes like fine brushwork, "Master Jiang has a bright future."

Jiang Jintang laughed: "When did General Qin learn to talk and beat around the bush?"

"That works." Qin Xu said in a deep voice: "Since you want me to say it straight, then I will say it straight, you and Your Majesty—"

With a sound of "dang", the teacup in Jiang Jintang's hand was placed on the low table in a gentle manner. He raised his slender eyelids and looked at Qin Xu: "It's just what you think."

"Jiang Jintang..." Qin Xu gritted his teeth, "Are you crazy!?"

Jiang Jintang didn't speak.

Qin Xu took a deep breath: "You finally got rid of your past identity, and finally re-enrolled as an official. Why do you need to take such a road and become the pampered servant of Israel's servant?!"

After Qin Xu finished speaking, he realized that his words were too heavy. He pursed his lips and said, "...I didn't mean that, you know."

Jiang Jintang didn't take it seriously, and said softly, "I know the general's kindness."

His eyes fell on those young people, and he said softly: "Ten years ago, I was also so high-spirited. Although I never crossed the inclined bridge in fresh clothes and angry horses, and the building was full of red sleeves, I still have the world in my heart and my ambition is for the common people."

When Qin Xu remembered the New Year's Eve, he asked Jiang Jintang about the youngest son of Ding Guogong, and Jiang Jintang said at that time, it's a pity.

What mood did he feel when he said these three words?

Grief, sadness, resentment, or... despair?

Qin Xu couldn't imagine.

"So many years have passed, and my mood is very different now." Jiang Jintang smiled with his lips bent: "It doesn't matter whether it's a treacherous minister or a pet...it doesn't matter."

"I don't care how the history books describe me. My life is too short, and many people want me to live for myself." Jiang Jintang's eyelashes twitched when he said this: "Then why bother with the world."

Qin Xu firmly grasped the corner of the desk, and asked in a low voice: "Then you...do you like him?"

Jiang Jintang said: "I like him."

Qin Xu closed his eyes, and then smiled: "...I never knew what you were trying to do."

He leaned closer to Jiang Jintang, and said word by word: "You seem to be for the common people, and you seem to be only for the emperor."

Jiang Jintang picked up the teapot and said, "If the division is too clear, it will be boring."

Qin Xu sat stiffly and did not speak for a long time.

After a polo match, teenagers came over to greet Qin Xu one after another. Jiang Jintang didn't know any of them, so he didn't go out, leaning on the side and looking aimlessly at the endless pasture.

The teenagers must be curious about who is in the tent, so that General Qin can personally receive them.After all, King Qin Xuqin rescued him, and his family members were thick, so he was the number one dignitary in the capital.

Qin Xu just casually said a few perfunctory words and dismissed the young men. He was not interested in drinking, and this polo match was just an excuse to invite Jiang Jintang out of the palace.

"I suddenly remembered an anecdote." Qin Xu said, "It is said that Feng Rutan was careful and sent his favorite son, Feng Qian, to Jingzhou, and sent his most valued counselor to escort him all the way. This Mr. Feng, not only did not go to Jingzhou, but turned back to the capital."

Jiang Jintang raised his head: "He's back?"

"This child is quite affectionate." Qin Xu said: "He didn't want to live alone, so he went to Jingzhao Mansion Yin to confess his crime, and wanted to live and die with Feng's family."

Jiang Jintang laughed: "I seem to have met him once, but he doesn't really look like Feng Rutan."

"Isn't it?" Qin Xu leaned against the pillar, lowered his eyes and said, "There is also Chen Xuanling who descended from the Wenqu star. If something happened to the Chen family, his name would definitely be in the top three in the imperial examination this year."

After a pause, Qin Xu suddenly said, "I can always see your shadow in these two people."

Feng Qian's spirit and Chen Xuanling's forbearance all resemble Jiang Jintang.

Jiang Jintang didn't answer.

Qin Xu wanted to say something more, when suddenly a servant hurried in and said, "General, there are people coming from the palace."

Qin Xu took a look at Jiang Jintang and said, "It's less than two hours, and His Majesty is really watching closely."

Jiang Jintang stood up, saluted, and said, "In that case, I'll go back first."

He is dressed in white with wide sleeves, noble and clean, his eyebrows embrace the distant mountains, and his eyes are like the sea of ​​stars.

Qin Xu suddenly felt that what he said just now was wrong.

Neither Feng Qian nor Chen Xuanling looked like Jiang Jintang.

There will never be someone like Jiang Jintang in this world again.

When Jiang Jintang rubbed shoulders with him, Qin Xu suddenly said, "Actually, you have always been very clear."

Jiang Jintang paused: "What?"

Qin Xu laughed at himself, but kept staring at Jiang Jintang's eyes: "You have always been very clear about my affection for you, haven't you?"

When the servant heard this, he knelt down on the ground in fright.

Jiang Jintang slowly bent his eyes: "Tang is not worthy of the general's affection, thank you for the wrong love, the general."

He nodded slightly: "I hope the general will find his lover as soon as possible."

It’s almost July and it’s getting hotter, the chirping of summer cicadas is everywhere, and the wild flowers on the roadside are also blooming incomparably. Bucket of ice water.

I don't know how long it took before Qin Xu gave a salute: "I'm going back to the frontier in two days, and I may not see each other for three to five years after I go. From then on, the mountains and rivers are far away, Lord Wangjiang cherishes it."

"Thank you."

Jiang Jintang turned around and followed the waiter to the outside of the racecourse, Qin Xu watched his back quietly.

It seems to have always been like this.

He was always looking at Jiang Jintang's back.

Qin Xu laughed at himself.

He has been in love for many years, and his heart has long been hardened. Now it is a long time, and he feels a little sad.

……

When Jiang Jintang left the racecourse, the servant lifted the curtain of the car for him, stretched out a hand, and pulled Jiang Jintang up directly. Jiang Jintang was a little helpless: "Why did you come out?"

Xuan Lan hugged him: "I miss you."

"...We eat breakfast together in the morning." Jiang Jintang pushed him away a little: "Don't hug me, it's hot."

Xuan Lan said: "It's not hot, I asked them to put an ice basin."

Jiang Jintang: "Xuan Lan, you don't know how to take your own body temperature? It's like a stove and you like to hug people all day long... You will burn to death sooner or later."

Xuan Lan felt a little wronged: "It's innate, and there's nothing I can do about it."

Anyway, no matter what, he just didn't let go.

Jiang Jintang simply gave up and leaned on his shoulder to watch the scenery outside the window.

Xuan Lan asked, "Did the polo match look good today?"

"It's okay." Jiang Jintang said without interest: "Young people are full of vigor, but they come from rich and powerful families, and they are all raised delicately, and they play gracefully."

"Then let someone from Xuanyuewei call you some other day." Xuan Lan said, "I remember that Nie Xia is very good at playing polo."

"Jia Shi will also." Jiang Jintang narrowed his eyes and said, "It should be interesting to let them lead the team to play a game."

Why didn't Xuan Lan follow him, and immediately ordered people to go down to do it, Jiang Jintang suddenly remembered what Qin Xu said, and said, "Said Feng sneaked into Beijing?"

"There is such a thing." Xuan Lan said: "Now he is detained in the prison with the Feng family."

Jiang Jintang didn't speak any more.

Xuan Lan leaned into his ear and said, "I didn't want to punish their nine clans."

"Conspiracy is a serious crime, and His Majesty just handles it so lightly?" Jiang Jintang raised his eyes: "This is not like the character of your Xuan family."

Xuan Lan said: "I'm the one who wants to marry you, and I want to take my husband's surname."

Jiang Jintang couldn't help laughing: "The ancestors of the Xuan family knew that such an unworthy descendant as you was born, and they would all be angry."

"In ancient times, there were brutal methods to suppress rebellion, and naturally there were also less brutal methods." Xuan Lan said, "I have decreed that Chen Xuanling will be allowed to participate in the Spring Palace next year. If he is promising, he will naturally be able to enter the court again."

"Aren't you afraid of raising tigers?"

"What are tigers afraid of?" Xuan Lan smiled: "I am the Son of Heaven."

Jiang Jintang: "..."

After all, he watched the grown-up child, Jiang Jintang naturally knew that this person had never been considered a benevolent person, he would let these families go, but it was because the aristocratic family collapsed, and there was no splash. Ende, reassure the people.

The carriage passed the busiest Rongchang Street, Jiang Jintang frowned and said, "This is not the way back to the palace."

"Not going back to the palace yet." Xuan Lan said, "It's rare that the weather is fine today, so I'll take you out for a walk."

The carriage stopped, and Jiang Jintang got out of the carriage supported by Xuan Lan. When he looked up, he saw the newly renovated gate of Dingguo Mansion.

Just as majestic and solemn as 12 years ago.

The servants slowly opened the door, and Jiang Jintang looked sideways at Xuan Lan.

Xuan Lan stretched out her hand and said, "Take you home and have a look."

Jiang Jintang pursed his lips and handed over to Xuan Lan.

They walked up the steps in front of the door step by step, and the summer wind blew, and the petals of the begonia swayed, like a drizzle, blurring the boundaries of time, and Jiang Jintang couldn't tell what night it was.

The warmth of his palm brought him back to his senses, and the young man's eyes were full of bright flowers: "There are many things that I can't do."

"But Ah Tang, as long as it can be done, I will do it for you."

There was the scent of Jiulixiang in the wind, and Jiang Jintang suddenly remembered a poem Jiang Yuyin taught him when he was young.

Last night, the westerly wind withered the green trees, and I went up to the tall building alone, looking at the end of the world.If you want to send colored paper and rulers, you know where the mountains are long and the rivers are wide. ①

Twelve years have passed away day and night, suffering from hardship and suffering with blood and tears.

It turns out that the mountains are long and the water is wide, and his colored paper and rulers are all sent to the person in front of him.

The author has something to say:

It's over here, thank you good brothers for your support, I will write two extra episodes, one is about Xuan Ke, and the other is about the married life of Tangtang and the dog emperor. I will kiss you one by one. If you don't get a kiss, you stick your head Not positive enough, don't blame me.

①: From Yan Shu's "Butterflies in Love with Flowers, Chrysanthemums, Sorrows, Smokes and Orchids Weeping Dew"
