Standing up to the west wind and geese not returning

The small glass made of glass pinched with gold thread in Du Zijin's hand was slightly cracked by his light force.The wine flowed down Du Zijin's fingers to his wrist.Du Zijin shook his hands in a panic.

Following Du Zijin's movement of shaking his hands, the shattered colored glass drew a graceful arc in the air, and then ruthlessly smashed against the old branches of the crabapple tree that had withered in winter.Like a broken dream, scattered in the dirty soil, but still faintly glowing.

Yan Ci held his own memorial, his brows and eyes were indifferent, as if there was just a gust of wind just now.

He stands proudly like a pine and cypress, silent and stubborn, waiting for the person in front of him to allow him to go further and further.

Du Zijin's palm was cut by the glass.Dark red blood dripped down his fist onto the cold ground.The cold wind blows the flowers in the plum garden in the distance.Bursts of plum fragrance wafted around.

Du Zijin took a light step forward, and he could see the memorial in Yan Ci's hand by lowering his eyebrows slightly.

It was filled with his determination to leave him.Du Zijin stretched out his other uninjured hand, took the memorial, and said, "Yan Xiang was grounded for several months, probably because he spent too much time parading around the streets with Mrs. Zun, so even our minimum rules are not respected." I forgot. Today is my feast for the ministers and officials, but Prime Minister Yan proposed to resign at this time. Wouldn’t he want to slap me in the face?"

Du Zijin's voice was not too loud, but it was heard clearly by all the officials standing around him. The timid and fearful heart secretly slandered, this prime minister is too ignorant of flattery, the emperor restrained his feet, finally It is easy to give him a chance to make him reappear, how can he resign when he comes up, and meet someone who is clever and transparent.

I think, according to the emperor's just intention, the emperor is afraid that he still wants to keep the prime minister in the court, so he doesn't take the emperor's wishes seriously, but the emperor still wants to keep him. It is the constant grace.The emperor's grace is generous.

When Yan Ci saw Du Zijin say this, he couldn't be more abrupt, and hurriedly bowed and said, "It's the sinful minister who is rude. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

Yan Cisheng was beautiful and gentle, but Du Zijin couldn't be punished for his etiquette at this moment. He couldn't help saying, "Since Mr. Yan also feels that I am rude, then I will give you a chance to make you pay me."

After Du Zijin finished speaking, he turned around and sat at the front seat, and then said, "Master Yan, please come and sit next to me. Today, I will trouble Lord Yan and serve me wine and vegetables."

All the requirements of the emperor, as a courtier, should be obeyed.What's more, it's just pouring wine and serving dishes for the emperor, and it's not something embarrassing. If it were someone else, it would be a blessing that even the accumulated virtues of the ancestors in eight generations could not be cultivated.

All eyes fell on Yan Ci.The words stood in place, and there was a faint look between the eyebrows and eyes, as if Du Zijin's request had nothing to do with him.

Between Du Zijin and Yan Ci, there was a few steps away, and the cold wind was blowing, and some people coughed faintly, and the past between the two seemed to be bright and beautiful. The picture scrolls appeared one by one in front of Yan Ci.

Time seemed to have stood still. After a long time, Yan Ci just bowed his head and saluted, saying, "I obey."

Today, Yan Ci was wearing a jacket with a cloudy water and light moon, and a thick fox fur cloak outside. At this moment, he walked slowly towards Du Zijin, and in Du Zijin's eyes, he looked like a beautifully dressed man. Buddha.His facial features, his expression, every move, are shining in his eyes.

Yan Ci slowly came to Du Zijin's side. An eunuch came forward and helped Yan Ci take off the cloak. The cloak was quite gorgeous. Yan Ci took off at this moment, and Yan Ci was only wearing a silver-white snow satin jacket. , looked quite plain and thin, Yan Ci half knelt down next to Du Zijin, that was the attitude of an eunuch who served meals on weekdays.

When Yan Ci lowered his head, because his back was too thin, the long hair that Yan Ci put behind him slid down his thin back to his chest.

Yan Ci stretched out his pale and thin hand, gently picked up the silver chopsticks, and carefully placed the delicacies in front of him on the porcelain plate in front of Du Zijin.

Then he knelt down completely, with a calm face, as if what he put down just now was a purple hair instead of chopsticks.

Du Zijin looked at the dishes on the plate, then at Yan Ci, and said in a low voice, "A Ci is too irresponsible, I told you a long time ago. Feed me, if you want into my mouth, don't feed it to the plate."

Yan Ci's breathing suddenly became heavy, and he still remembered that he had said such words in his Zhuangyuan Mansion back then.

Yan Ci remained silent, but raised his hand again, picked up the silver chopsticks, held the silver chopsticks with his other hand, and carefully fed the chopsticks of greens into Du Zijin's mouth.

There was a sour emotion in Du Zijin's heart, and he only wanted Yan Ci to talk to him, and wanted him to take the initiative to mention those old feelings.

But Yan Ci seems to have made up his mind not to mention old things. Du Zijin picks up vegetables as he wants, and feeds them into his mouth. From the beginning to the end, his attitude is humble and respectful, like a well-behaved Gong'e.

He is very obedient but has no feelings for himself.Du Zijin was in a hurry, he gritted his teeth hard, and only bit the chopsticks tightly. Yan Ci originally wanted to take the chopsticks back, but when he tried hard, he felt that the chopsticks were being bitten, so he couldn't help looking up at Du Zijin, so he was unprepared At that moment, when Yan Ci raised his head, he fell into Du Zijin's deep eyes. In those eyes, affection and anger coexisted. He was angry for his escape.

"Your Majesty..." Yan Ci spoke softly.

Du Zijin just opened his mouth lightly at this moment, gritted his teeth and said, "A Ci these days, isn't it good to eat at home? I heard that you and your wife have a very good relationship, but I look at it, and it seems that you have lost weight, don't you?" few."

Yan Ci lowered his head gently, and said with a respectful look, "The poor woman is virtuous and capable, but I'm useless, and she's tried her best. But I don't see good. But these days It’s much better than when it just entered winter. It’s also my honor to come and see the emperor.”

Du Zijin was originally teasing Yan Ci, but when he heard Yan Ci say that he was not in good health a few days ago, he couldn't help becoming worried again, but he couldn't let go of his face, so he said with a calm face, "So, Mrs. Yan It is even more inappropriate to resign at this time. You have worked hard for the people of the world, the country, and the country. Now that the prime minister is ill, I naturally have to wait until Ah Ci is in good health before proceeding. Otherwise, as the king of a country, wouldn’t I To fall into the name of being unkind and unrighteous.

At the end of the year, the court has a rest.You just go back to your house, take a good rest, and wait until the Chinese New Year, when the spring is deep in March, it's not too late to resign. "

Yan Ci bowed his head respectfully again, and said, "My Majesty, although my wife is not as good as the master of traditional Chinese medicine in the Taiyuan Hospital, she is better than careful study. I have injured my body a few years ago. The imperial doctors in the imperial hospital are embarrassed, but it is the fault of this humble minister."

Du Zijin and Yan Ci were kneeling together at the moment, Yan Ci's hand was quietly placed on her kneeling knee, Du Zijin directly reached out to grab Yan Ci's hand, and said, "No..."

Yan Ci was startled, and looked up at Du Zijin, and saw that Du Zijin's eyes were red, and his deep voice was full of suppressed anger and grievance, and said, "A Ci, you really didn't lie to me back then, I don't think you are Forced to marry your wife, you just really like her. Your heart is all about him now. You...you still have a place for me in your heart. "

He said me, not me.Yan Ci paused lightly, then remembered his own body, and the oath he made to God that day in Baihe Valley. He said that if one day he failed Du Zijin, he would die a terrible death.

It's all right now, if I haven't let him down, I'm already going to die, sometimes it's funny to think about it, it's really a trick of good fortune.

Yan Ci gently took his hand away from Du Zijin's hand. Du Zijin stretched out his hand to continue to grab it, but Yan Ci gently stretched out his other hand to hold it down. The light expression, the fearlessness of giving up everything else in the face of life and death, made Du Zijin feel flustered.Does he really care about nothing?

Yan Ci withdrew his hand from Du Zijin's hand, and there was no ups and downs on his face. In the distance, the eunuchs and eunuchs, all civil and military officials, began to listen to music and appreciate martial arts under Du Zijin's signal. Only Du Zijin and Yan Ci's eyes met, and in this flashy and chaotic world, another world was separated for life.

"Does your majesty know? My wife loves me very much." Yan Ci seldom announces his love affairs, but at this moment, he seems to be talking about a landscape painting with Du Zijin, "She is beautiful, brave, kind and capable. She likes me and wholeheartedly wants to cure my illness. My house is planted with various herbs by her.

I can't understand those, but I do know that they all appeared in my prescription.

She was 16 when she married me and is 17 now.But he was ready to be widowed.She told me that one year by my side is enough to support her for the rest of her life.emperor.I just want to make her feel better. "

The expression between Du Zijin's brows and eyes softened a little, and then said, "But, the more you do, the more difficult it will be for her."

Yan Ci shook his head lightly, and said with a wry smile, "If that's the case, the emperor wouldn't want me to say more. If even memories are limited, then the long rest of my life, I'm afraid it will take a long time to miss you over and over again. , I can't even remember the other person's eyebrows and eyes.

To keep more memories, you can remember the way the other party combs his hair in the morning, eats soup and eats, and reads while standing under the eaves.

Seeing the appearance of snow and the appearance of wind.In this way, for the rest of my life, I can think of the other person's appearance without any effort, and the feeling of longing will not be so difficult. "

The words were easy to say, as if a person who was about to go on a long journey was saying the simplest farewell, but Du Zijin felt a pain in his heart when he heard it, and said, "Ah Ci said this, because he made up his mind to die. You just care about it." Your wife can have memories everywhere for the rest of her life, so how about me, how do you want me to live alone in this world? How can the cold rivers and mountains give me comfort. "

Yan Ci lightly raised his hand to touch Du Zijin's face, and said, "The emperor is not an ordinary woman, and I have more memories with you than me and her."

Du Zijin stretched out his hand to grab Yan Ci's hand, and said, "Don't say that again, I won't let you have trouble, I will definitely find the best doctor in the world, and take good care of your body. I want you to be with me all the time By my side. Together with me, we will watch thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, and build a peaceful and prosperous world together."

The wind and cold at night were extremely severe. Yan Ci had been in the wind for a while, and his whole body was already completely cold. He felt that the cold wind had been poured into his bones. There was no trace of heat from the inside to the outside of his body, and his lips began to feel cold. become bruised.

Du Zijin took Yan Ci's hand and felt that Yan Ci was trembling faintly, so he took off the embroidered dragon cloak on his body and put it on Yan Ci. The heat suddenly enveloped his whole body, and Yan Ci felt much better.

Yan Ci slowed down and said, "The emperor thinks that my wife wants me to live a good life less than the emperor. However, even the person she hopes for me so much says that I have a bad time." Too many, every day and night, she secretly tested my forehead and breathing, I know it, but I don't want to say it, it makes people sad.

My own body, I myself know it well.I'm afraid that I won't be able to celebrate the New Year next year, so I really want to have a good New Year this year. "

Looking at Yan Ci's pale face and his bony body under the heavy cloak, Du Zijin felt extremely sad.

But he didn't know how to speak, even though he was now the son of heaven, the monarch of all the people in this world.

But in the face of illness, life and death, the feeling of powerlessness caused Du Zijin's heart to ache one after another.

It's okay to hate and hate when a stranger makes a farewell.

Du Zijin lightly touched Yan Ci's face, then whispered, "A Ci..."

Yan Ci slightly tilted his face, and lightly pressed it against Du Zijin's palm. The moment his skin touched, Yan Ci's tears rolled down on Du Zijin's palm.

Those distressed emotions that had been carefully restrained by Yan Ci collapsed at this moment. Yan Ci breathed with difficulty, and the biting cold air poured into his chest, which devastated people from the liver and lungs to the mind.

"Your Majesty, I can't bear it. I can't bear it. I can't bear it, Your Majesty. I can't bear it."

The tears were like boiling blood, and Du Zijin hurriedly withdrew his hands, hugging Yan Ci tightly into his arms. He was so distressed that he murmured, "Aci...Aci...my Aci..."

Both of them shed tears, all the calculations and suspicions, and the incomprehension between each other melted at this moment. The eunuch who had been clever for a long time hung up the curtain, and only Du Zijin was left hugging tightly. Yan Ci.The moonlight is clear and bright, and the cold night is lonely.Everything in this world seems to have nothing to do with the two of them.
