The sky is a cage, and the ground is a prison?

He Qianxiao looked around, but really couldn't make out the direction.

Seeing that Gu Yueqin had left, Xu Jueming behind him immediately stepped forward and grabbed He Qianxiao's arm, "Sixth Highness, it is not appropriate to stay here for a long time."

He Qianxiao never expected that he would follow up. One was that Xu Jueming was the number one scholar in liberal arts, and his martial arts were not particularly superb. The other was that Xu Jueming had always been serious about him, and would ignore him if he could.

These days, Xu Jueming was beyond his expectations every time.

He Qianxiao knew that he couldn't stay any longer, so he said, "Then let's go."

Xu Jueming let go of his arm and led the horse over. For some reason, his voice was soft, "Your Highness can't ride a horse, can you?"

He Qianxiao looked at the horse and fell into deep thought.

Not long ago, I was thinking that once something happens in the article, eight out of ten times it has something to do with horses. Is it dangerous to even mention it?

"If His Highness allows," Xu Jueming said in a low voice, "I can carry His Highness up, and His Highness will be wronged to ride with me."

He Qian smiled and said: "Just kidding, although I don't know how to ride, it's not like I can't even ride a horse, right?"

Xu Jueming frowned, "..." he hesitated to speak.

After about a cup of tea, He Qianxiao's feet still couldn't get on the horse's back correctly.

He Qian smiled: "...cough."

With a smile in his eyes, Xu Jueming inadvertently grabbed He Qianxiao's waist and sent He Qianxiao up with one stroke.

He Qian couldn't help but change the subject with a smile on his face, "Let's go."

Afterwards, Xu Jueming made a mark on the tree and got on the horse. The distance between the two of them was almost inevitably drawn closer. It was pitch black, and nothing could be seen.

Xu Jueming pulled the reins and let the horse go around.

The strange thing is that they are walking in the direction they came from, and they will not go for a stick of incense, and then they will go back to the distance. Xu Jueming seems to have expected it, and it is not surprising. He Qianxiao and He Qianxiao went down together Ma, said lightly: "Sure enough."

"Can't tell the direction?" He Qian asked with a smile.

Xu Jueming took out a fire pocket book, "I was in a hurry when I came here, and I didn't mark the way, so I can only try."

Well, it's better to try than nothing.

He Qianxiao followed behind Xu Jueming, watching Xu Jueming reading from a tree with a torch.

It is not a trivial matter for Hei Tian to get lost in the dense forest with overlapping trees. It is best if Yan Gui can find him, but if he can't, the two of them can only ask for luck.

Simply put, none of them appeared to be in a state of chaos, and they were all very calm.

Xu Jueming looked at the tree for a while, and finally took back the fire folder, "To tell the direction, you need sunlight, and I can't do anything at this time."

He Qian smiled and touched the texture of the tree.

He Qianxiao still had the time to joke around, "Then let's take the sky as a blanket and let's talk about it after we sleep."

He didn't sleep well that night.

First the crown prince broke into his tent, followed by Gu Yueqin, who was very tired, and sleeping was what he wanted to do the most.

Xu Jueming was surprised, "I've never seen you like this..."

He Qianxiao knew the character of the original owner, maybe he was like a little rabbit at the moment, his eyes were reddened, in fact his character was not too bold, but he always felt that Xu Jueming had a way.

"The past is the past. There is no need to mention the past." He Qian pointed out with a smile.

Xu Jueming's disgust towards him was largely due to the original owner's entanglement with him regardless of the occasion.

There is nothing wrong with the original love, but when Xu Jueming hinted several times and the original owner didn't understand, it doesn't make people unable to feel love.

He didn't intend to be liked by Xu Jueming, but he just didn't want Xu Jueming to harbor ill will toward him.

He Qianxiao found a tree and sat down leaning against it.

The bitter cold at the border is not a joke, the winter in the capital is cold, and the wind at the border is biting, especially at night, even when He Qianxiao hid in the tent, he could hear the howling wind outside.

Let alone coming out of the tent now.

He Qianxiao originally thought that he and Xu Jueming would not interfere with each other, he was on this side, and Xu Jueming should go to the side.

But Xu Jueming stood there for a while, then walked to his side and sat down with him.

The two leaned shoulder to shoulder, Xu Jueming said: "The night is windy, frosty and dewy, if I sit alone, I'm afraid I won't be able to get through it."

He Qianxiao knew what he said made sense.

He shrugged his shoulders, Xu Jueming asked again: "Can you still bear it?"

He Qianxiao shook his head, gritted his teeth and said, "This Gu Yueqin, if I meet him next time, I will definitely goug him out!"

In the next second, his shoulder felt warm.

He Qianxiao turned his head and found that it was Xu Jueming who took off his robe to him, but Xu Jueming himself was so cold that his lips were pale, and when he was leaning against the tree, there was still a smile in his eyes.

"I'm not that cold." He Qianxiao quickly took it off and returned it to him. "You don't have to do this. If you get cold, I can't explain it to Brother Huang."

No, there is no way to explain to the protagonist.

After all, the relationship line is not yet clear, who knows if Xu Jueming is in the palace?

Xu Jueming paused, and his slender fingertips touched He Qianxiao's hand holding the robe, and then retracted, with his usual indifference, "No need."

He Qian said with a smile in his heart that he really deserves to be the champion, for the country and the people.

The premise is that if you don't like him, he can treat you as a commoner and a superior, and love the people like a son.

Seeing that his lips were getting darker, He Qianxiao knew it was from the cold, so in a hurry, he simply moved closer to Xu Jueming, lifted up his outer robes, and covered them both on their heads.

The heavy robes covered their heads and bodies, suddenly making the space cramped.

But also warmed up a lot.

Xu Jueming didn't expect him to act like this, his eyes moved, and they were fixed on He Qianxiao's face, unable to move away.

The last time he was in the Xu Mansion, he found that He Qianxiao's personality had changed, and he became more eye-catching.

He Qianxiao tried his best to keep a low profile, but in fact, he attracted the attention of others even more. He was not the only one who came out this time. He saw his subordinates staying beside He Qianxiao's carriage several times. The next position is also in demand.

If He Qianxiao could poke his head out of the carriage and say a few words to them, those people would be so happy that they would sing.

In the past, He Qianxiao, even if he was kind, always had a naive and stupid ignorance, but now He Qianxiao is more able to joke with others, and can also give people a little favor.

Such a master who knows how to be a man, his subordinates like it.

Such an outstanding appearance... Men like it.

In the darkness, they couldn't see each other's faces very clearly, but they could get a vague idea. Xu Jueming was in a trance when he suddenly felt his shoulders sink, followed by a warm body temperature.

He Qianxiao fell asleep.

Xu Jueming stretched out his hand, wanting to touch He Qianxiao's face.

But he took it back in the end and didn't do anything too menglang.

His father taught him the etiquette of a gentleman since he was a child, so in his more than ten years of life, he has always been mostly restrained. As for He Qianxiao's bold courtship of him before, he only felt that the other party was rude.

Leaving aside how the two men got together, even if He Qianxiao was so entangled, it would be extremely ugly after all.

At the beginning, he could bear it, but then he completely lost his face towards He Qianxiao.Suddenly one day, He Qianxiao seemed to have figured it out, and stopped pestering him, and became much bolder.

Dare to speak for Yan Gui at the banquet set up by the emperor, he is so smart, and he does not show his face when he helps.

When Xu was in the residence, hibiscus was inserted between his temples, not only was it not inferior, it was even inferior to flowers.

Later when He Qianxiao was taken captive, he and Yan Gui broke into the bedroom together, and saw He Qianxiao in the big red bed curtain, with dim tears and reddish corners of his eyes. shocked.

The most beautiful bride in the world is not as good as He Qianxiao at that time.

He was an upright gentleman, suddenly he didn't look like an upright gentleman.

Feeling the weight on his shoulders, Xu Jueming felt that his breathing was stagnant, and more importantly, his heart was beating out of control. He closed his eyes tightly, and the roots of his ears were already red.

On this cold night, instead of feeling cold, he felt restless.

The next day, when the sky was bright and He Qianxiao was still dazed, he heard the sound of horseshoes.

He half-opened his eyes, and Xu Jueming had already woken up. He immediately picked him up and was about to walk into the carriage—it was not clear whether the visitor was an enemy or a friend, so it was better to be cautious.

The two of them straddled the horse, and Xu Jueming was about to lead the reins, when the sound of the horse's hooves got closer, accompanied by a few whistles, Xu Jueming paused immediately, took out something from his sleeve, and blew it out. whistle.

Not long after, the other party came over looking for the voice.

It's Yangui.

Yan Gui didn't bring any large troops behind him, he was still wearing yesterday's clothes, his face was not very good-looking, and he probably stayed up in the woods all night, but his condition is much better than that of He Qianxiao and the two of them, after all, he has soldiers who are marching and fighting Experience, I am used to suffering.

After he got closer, he saw He Qianxiao huddled in Xu Jueming's arms, his expression changed, "What's wrong, Your Highness Sixth?"

Xu Jueming clenched his hands, paused, and said, "It's nothing, just sleepy."

He Qianxiao also looked at him sleepily.

Yan Gui: "..."

"At dawn, I came to look for you, and I thought you were all caught by Gu Yueqin," Yan Gui said, "I marked the way here, and I can leave the forest in about an hour."

Xu Jueming cupped his hands, "Thanks to the general."

"But Mr. Xu, this horse of yours seems to be exhausted," Yan Gui said, "It's better to let the Sixth Highness come to my side."

When Yangui travels, he always brings a BMW that has been with him for many years.

It wasn't as good as a sweaty horse, but compared to Yan Gui's bravery, this horse was not much better. With several years of marching experience, it was obviously not comparable to Xu Jueming's horse.

He Qianxiao just wanted to say that he could go there too.

Unexpectedly, Xu Jueming stopped looking at Yan Gui, pulled the rein first, and said indifferently: "No need, Your Highness is already familiar with sitting on my horse."

Yan Gui frowned slightly.

He seldom has such an expression. Most of the time, he is strategizing and full of confidence, just like his best horse, which always holds its head high.

He Qianxiao was still in a daze, but seeing that Yan Gui didn't raise any objections, she closed her mouth.

He couldn't understand the atmosphere.

It stands to reason that the three giants complement each other, and Yan Gui also helped them a lot among them. Later, when the crown prince ascended the throne, Xu Jueming and Yan Gui were the right-hand men of the crown prince. The relationship should be good. How could this be the case?

Even without the wind blowing over, he felt that the air was strangely cold.

He Qianxiao shrank back into the cloak, only showing his eyes.

Less than a quarter of an hour later, Xu Jueming's horse was indeed a bit behind Yan Gui, but he didn't care. He lowered his head and asked He Qianxiao softly, "Is it cold?"

At any rate, they kept each other warm all night, and He Qianxiao partially changed his view of him, and replied: "It's okay, it's not cold."

While riding the horse, Xu Jueming stretched out a hand to tuck He Qianxiao's blown hair.

He Qianxiao didn't think there was anything wrong, but Yan Gui in front seemed to have eyes behind his back, tightened the reins, slowed down, and said side by side with them: "Mr. Bar."

This time I spoke less politely than last time.

Xu Jueming didn't care either. He looked ahead and said the same words: "Thank you, General Yan, there's no need."

He Qianxiao could see Yan Gui's expression.

Yan Gui showed no expression.

It's just that his eyes were a little cold. After seeing that Xu Jueming was unmoved, he raised his whip and rode his horse forward at full speed.

He Qianxiao and Xu Jueming fell far behind, He Qianxiao didn't understand, and said to Xu Jueming: "Young Master Xu, it will indeed be much slower for the two of you to ride the same horse."

Xu Jueming responded lightly: "Yes."

He still didn't mean to hand over He Qianxiao to Yan Gui.

Since He Qianxiao was still on his horse, and he was with everyone, with the same destination, and didn't say anything annoying, this time he simply covered his head and went back to sleep.

Not knowing how long it had passed, He Qianxiao heard someone calling his name.

"He Qianxiao! Open your eyes!"

He Qianxiao was quite annoyed when he heard the flustered voice, and the tone was very familiar, so he half-opened his eyes again, and saw the prince approaching his face, which was still full of anger, He Qianxiao was immediately startled woke up.

"Brother Huang."

"You still call me?!" He Zichen stretched out his hand and pinched He Qianxiao's cheek, "You're useless, you were taken away just like that, there are so many people outside the tent, you can't shout louder ?!"

He Qianxiao was a little frightened and didn't speak for a long time.

"Are you wronged?" He Zichen's voice softened a little, "What is wrong with you? You were caught, and the ones who should be wronged are General Yan and Mr. Xu who went out to look for you in the middle of the night."

He Qianxiao always found this accusing tone very familiar.

Think about it carefully, isn't it familiar? His mother used to like to train him like this.

He Zichen held He Qianxiao's face with one hand, looked him up and down, "Are you hurt? Did that bastard do something to you?"

He Qianxiao didn't understand why he could panic like this.

Don't you hate him?Knowing that he was captured, and no one will continue to compete with him for the throne in the future, he should be happy.

But I have to say that after being captured, whether the rest of the people gloated or worried, it still affected his mood.

Even Yuan Yuan knelt in front of him, with snot and tears and said: "If something happens to Your Highness, the slave will die."

It wasn't his business at first, but he always came forward to take the blame every time.

He Qianxiao helped him up, feeling a warm current in his heart.

One is for Yuan Yuan's loyalty. Outside the book, they are good roommates. After He Qianxiao passed through, he saw Yuan Yuan so groveling and tried to correct him several times, but was rejected by Yuan Yuan in fear. People can't be friends anymore.

He was discouraged by this, but seeing Yuan Yuan do so many things for him, he made up his mind that if he had a bite to eat in this world, he would definitely not let Yuan Yuan go hungry.

What's more, the prince's attitude towards him has changed.

He Qianxiao didn't know why this change came about, but it was not a bad thing after all.

Without the embarrassment of the prince, after returning to the palace, his life will be much easier.

If the crown prince really regards him as a brother, the emperor may not be able to help him when he finds out his true identity.

Of course, this is all just speculation.

After confirming that the prince's malice towards him gradually dissipated, He Qianxiao became more at ease. He observed He Zichen's words and deeds several times on the road, and was discovered by He Zichen several times. Not only did He Zichen not blame him, but he also thought it was because of this incident I was frightened, and during the rest, I took the initiative to go to the carriage to appease.

If it's just for him to appease, it's better not to say it.

The prince is more talkative in front of the emperor, and the rest of the time, he is always flattered by the people around him and grows up, so he doesn't have the same caution when dealing with others.

When He Qianxiao patted his head, he said: "If you touch it again, you won't become smarter. I used to think you were stupid, but I just found out last night that you are indeed stupid."

He Qian smiled: "..."

He didn't say anything about his mouth being covered by Gu Yueqin.

The main reason is that I can't get in the words.

"Did Gu Yueqin do anything to you yesterday?" He Zichen said, "There were so many people just now, you can just say it if you feel embarrassed, but now there are no one, tell me honestly... I will avenge you."

He Qian smiled and said, "There is nothing else other than taking me to ride the horse."

He Zichen's face darkened for a moment, "I assure you, this matter will not happen again."

He Qianxiao is now sure that he really treats himself as a younger brother, otherwise, when did His Royal Highness consider others?

He was a little inexplicably relieved, oh my god, I don't have to worry about the prince targeting him anymore!

No, the prince himself will avenge him.

He Qianxiao was almost frozen in the night, and still had a headache in the morning, and now he managed to warm up, holding the stove Yuan Yuan gave him in his hand, and wearing a quilt that could only be used at night, in front of the prince, he went to I shrink back.

He Zichen stretched out his hand and tightened it for him, "The closer you get to the border, the stronger the wind and sand will be. I've wronged you for a while."

When He Qianxiao heard him say that, he was surprised and jumped for joy again.

You know, how could the prince worry about him before?Worried about whether he would freeze to death or not.

Inexplicably, there is no enemy, which feels good.

He Zichen stayed in the carriage for a while and then went out.

Not long after they walked, they arrived at the gate of another city, not far from the border, a relatively deserted town.

He Qianxiao recalled that this seemed to be Xu Jueming's destination as well.

Yuzhou where he was looking for relatives.

In order to get close, Zhang Shimiao deliberately flattered Yuzhou to be a good place. In fact, this place has nothing to do with the word "good". When He Qianxiao went in, he thought it was a mistake. Zhou is looking forward to it.

As a result, Xu Jueming stood behind him and replied calmly: "You didn't go wrong, this is here."

He Qianxiao was shocked.

But after entering, this sense of desolation was greatly diluted by the flow of people in front of him. Xu Jueming paused for a moment before remembering and said: "Today is a market, so it's normal that there are many people."

It was He Qianxiao and the others who were a little too conspicuous in the crowd.

After walking for a short time, they met Ling and his party.

It was Hua Mingcheng who had been walking away from them all this time, and came to meet them with a large group of people.

He is about to reach his destination, the more people around the prince the better, but his identity still cannot be revealed, he needs to borrow He Qianxiao's identity.

Everyone only thought that the sixth prince had arrived, and the common people stopped what they were doing, and were so excited that they knelt down to welcome him.

Not seeing each other for a few days, Hua Mingcheng's fair skin turned darker, his eyes could not hide the tiredness, but he was very energetic. He was dressed in ordinary clothes and bowed to the prince.

"Subordinate Hua Mingcheng, see...His Royal Highness Sixth Prince."

He Zichen accepted his identity well, and nodded, "Get up, and take us to the mansion in the state capital."

Hua Mingcheng led the way ahead.

He Qianxiao followed, and noticed that Hua Mingcheng kept looking at him, but it wasn't a malicious look, it was more of a curiosity.

Facing the real protagonist, the character whose whole world revolves around him, He Qianxiao unconsciously straightened his back.

Unexpectedly, the action of straightening his back was watched by someone who cared.

After entering the state capital, all the local officials came to greet him. He Zichen sat on the main seat and looked down at the crowd. They all said that the emperor is not angry and pretentious, but the young He Zichen already has the aura of not being angry and pretentious.

The lowly official wiped off his cold sweat, stepped forward and said, "Sixth prince, my ministers and others have received the emperor's secret decree early on, this time we will definitely help the sixth prince to succeed."

He Zichen nodded, "That's very good. The current emperor is a Mingjun. If you are willing to put your heart into it, I will report to Emperor Father when I leave for Beijing."

"Okay," he said again, casually lifted the lid of the tea in his hand, "I and my people are exhausted, take us to our residence."

After speaking, he slowly closed the tea cover.

Standing beside him, He Qianxiao deeply felt the benefit of the prince's dissipating ill will towards him.

With such a domineering posture, he might not be able to bear it if he was commanded all over him.

He Qianxiao, Hua Mingcheng, Xu Jueming, and Yan Gui quietly followed behind the crown prince, listening to the report from the officials below, that Yuzhou was one city away from the border, and that was the real border.

The role of Yuzhou is to serve as a backup after the border city falls.

So on their side, the fertile land is abundant and self-sufficient. Even if the city gate is closed for a year or so, they will never make any mistakes.

Sometimes, the victory of a war is spent like this.

Listening to the official's report, He Zichen didn't show any impatience. He listened carefully and asked questions from time to time.

He Qianxiao even thought the content was boring, but he listened to it.

After such a boring journey, we arrived at our residence.

Someone took them to familiarize themselves with the environment, and after the officials had left, Hua Mingcheng asked, "Your Highness, that Mr. Li is notoriously rigid, there is no need for you..."

"Although he is old-fashioned, he is a good official," He Zichen interrupted, "Okay, I'm tired after tossing around for the past few months, I finally found a decent place to live, let's all rest."

When Hua Mingcheng heard the crown prince interrupting him, not only did he not feel annoyed, but his eyes lit up.

Like a lot of admiration.

For a man like him to show such an expression to another man, He Qianxiao felt a little weird for a moment, but he didn't think much about it.

After all, Hua Mingcheng is the protagonist, and the three giants surround him. It will be a long time before he falls in love with the three giants.

When going to his residence, Yuan Yuan leaned close to He Qianxiao's ear and asked, "Young Master, Eldest Young Master... No, the Sixth Prince stayed with us along the way and did not communicate with the people of Yuzhou. Your Excellency is a good official?"

"Idiot, the tea just now," He Qianxiao knocked on him, "The tea in the teacup is almost so pale that it has no color, obviously it's not good tea, but how could you not treat the royal family with good tea?" ?”

Yuan Yuan: "That's right, Master Li is going too far!"

He Qian smiled: "It's really immodest to say you're stupid. Mr. Li doesn't serve good tea because he can't. He's clean."

Yuan Yuan suddenly realized.

He Qianxiao followed the maid who led the way and found his residence.

This place has already been tidied up, a bit shabby, but it is better than clean, the mattresses are also freshly dried, and there is a smell of sunshine.

If it were any other officials, they would have brought out new quilts to entertain their group of distinguished guests, but Mr. Li is frugal. From the time he entered the door to now, he has revealed the four characters of simplicity and unpretentiousness everywhere.

He Qian smiled and sat down, feeling quite satisfied.

There is nothing else to be busy at night. When he comes out this time, the emperor's will for him is also for him to learn a lot. As for other dangerous matters, he is not allowed to intervene.

Just before He Qianxiao fell asleep, the headache returned.

In the middle of the night, he heard Yuan Yuan, who was watching the night, yell, "Six...Young Master! Wake up, can you still hear me?"

He Qianxiao felt that it was extremely noisy.

Fortunately, after Yuan Yuan finished shouting, he quickly quieted down again.

However, it didn't stay quiet for a long time, and then the surroundings became chaotic again. He Qianxiao couldn't open his eyes, and really wanted to protest.

He heard the prince's voice, and said to him: "Smile, wake up!"

There was a warm hand on his hot cheek, He Qian smiled and squinted his eyes, but he was really tired, and said softly: "I want to sleep..."

"Let you sleep, but you have to get up and take medicine," He Zichen heaved a sigh of relief, "Hurry up and be obedient."

He Qianxiao thought Yuan Yuan was serving him, so he half got up and leaned against the head of the bed.

But He Zichen took the bowl of medicine and wanted to feed him with his own hands.

He Qianxiao opened his mouth, only to hear another noise outside the door, he had to come in.

Hearing the voice, it was Yan Gui.
