Wearing a book, the paranoid devil is crying in my arms

Xi Yan stood on the tower, wrapped tightly in a white cloak, and the wide brim of the cloak covered his head, almost burying his face in the furry cloak.

The cold wind howled on the city tower, and he slowly looked up at the dark sky, the weather was getting colder and colder, and it seemed that it was almost the time of Chinese New Year.

The maid standing behind him finally couldn't help but speak.

"Your Majesty, it has been two hours. Take care of your body and wait at Pei's mansion."

Seeing that there was no army coming back from a distance, Xi Yan shook his head.

"It's here, the first to see him come back."

Hearing this, the maid standing behind him bowed her head and said nothing.

Not for a while, snowflakes slowly fell, Xi Yan raised his eyes to look at the drowsy sky, and the falling snowflakes profusely.

He reached out to catch a snowflake, which quickly turned into water droplets when it landed in his hand.

It seemed to be whispering, "It's snowing..."

The cold wind was howling, and he felt a little cold. He wrapped the white cloak around his body tightly again, and looked into the distance again.

Finally seeing the mighty people from afar coming towards this side, Xi Yan immediately took a step forward and looked forward with his head.

Seeing that it was indeed the soldiers who returned in triumph, the corners of his lips finally slowly raised a smile, watching the army getting closer and closer with joy.

The chill on his body seemed to be slowly fading, and he immediately turned around and walked down the tower.

Seeing this, the maid immediately followed behind him.

The city gate was wide open, and Xi Yan stood at the gate and watched Pei Mu's figure getting closer.

In two years, he changed from an immature boy to a more stable one, because of the years of fighting, his skin was bronzed.

Dressed in armor and sitting on a tall horse, he slowly came towards him, and the originally immature facial features also slowly grew, and became much colder and harder.

Pei Mu also quickly saw the man in white standing at the city gate, handsome as a scholar, with his face buried in the brim of a furry hat.

It looks even more beautiful. He used to think that Xi Yan was beautiful, but now he thinks that Xi Yan has become even more beautiful.

He immediately raised his whip and spurred his horse towards Xi Yan. Xi Yan had a smile on his face, and when he was in front of him, Pei Mu tightened the reins and stopped.

Turning off the horse, he took three steps and walked in front of him in two steps. His armor collided with a chill.

When he walked to Xi Yan's side, Xi Yan realized that Pei Mu was already taller than him at some point.

Pei Mu was about to kneel down to salute immediately, but was stopped by Xi Yan's raised hand. His slender white hands touched the hard armor, and they were cold.

I just feel that this thing is very heavy when I touch it.

"Is everything okay?" Xi Yan looked Pei Mu up and down.

Pei Mu nodded, Xi Yan nodded, and after a while, Xi Yan spoke.

"Old General Pei is gone."

Pei Mu pursed her lips, "I know..."

Sooner or later, there will be such a day, but it's a pity that I can't give it away, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for taking care of my father's funeral."

"Come into town."

After saying that, he turned around. Compared with Pei Mu, he looked much thinner.

Hearing this, Pei Mu raised his hand and followed him holding the rein. Soon there would be a large army entering the city, and the common people would line up to greet him.

When he was about to walk into the city, he raised his eyes and saw many people coming towards the gate of the city. Seeing this, Pei Mu immediately got on his horse.

Reaching out to Xi Yan, Xi Yan looked up at him in a daze.

"Your Majesty, the army is about to enter the city, it is against the rules for you to do so."

When he said this, there was a smile on the corner of his mouth. Only then did Xi Yan understand, and reached out to hold Pei Mu's hand.

He pulled Xi Yan onto the horse with great strength, and Xi Yan was a little surprised.

Pei Mu's hands were rough but warm. In this weather, his frozen hands were cold.

Pei Mu looked down at the person sitting in front of him, and smiled vaguely, holding the rein in his hand, just enough to wrap him in his arms.

Xi Yan lowered the brim of his hat to cover his face. No one knew he came out this time. Seeing this, Pei Mu whipped his horse and walked along a remote path.

The wind blew the brim of Xi Yan's hat, and soon the brim of the hat was blown off by the wind, which made him stunned for a moment, and turned his head to look at Pei Mu.

Pei Mu also happened to look down at him, the distance was so close that he could even feel the breathing between the two of them.

Xi Yan was stunned for a moment, and when she came to her senses, she raised her hand in a panic and wanted to put on the hat again.

At this time, Pei Mu's voice came from next to his ear.

"Your Majesty, are you cold?"

It's okay if Pei Mu didn't say anything. After hearing what he said, Xi Yan really felt a bit chilly. He walked through an alley and arrived at Pei's house.

Tightening the reins at the side door, Pei Mu turned over and got off the horse first. Xi Yan sat on the horse's back, and saw Pei Mu stretch out his hand, and before he could react, he was pulled into his arms and hugged.

Touching the hard armor made Xi Yan a little confused, but he didn't want to just hug him lightly, and soon Pei Mu let him go.

As if under an illusion, Pei Mu held the rein, and soon someone came out from the side door and took the rein from him.

Xi Yan pulled the brim of his hat, and Pei Mu grabbed his hand, as he did many years ago, pulling him tightly and leading him into Pei's mansion.

After Pei Shuo's death, the entire Pei Mansion became much more depressed, and everyone was shrouded in an atmosphere of sadness.

When Pei Mu appeared, everyone still had expressions of sadness on their faces. He walked quickly into the ancestral hall without stopping, and let go of Xi Yan's hand.

Kneeling straight in front of Pei Shuo's spiritual seat, he kowtowed heavily several times.

Xi Yan stood beside him, lowered the brim of his hat, trying to make him invisible to everyone in the Pei residence.

Everyone didn't have the time to ask more questions. After a while, Pei Mu slowly straightened up.

Seeing that Pei Shuo's spiritual seat hadn't moved for a long time, Xi Yan knew that he felt uncomfortable.

But it also has something to do with him. If it wasn't for him, Pei Mu might still be able to give his father a ride.

The sky gradually darkened. It stands to reason that after the triumphant return, the general would have to meet the emperor first.

When Xi Yan came to pick up Pei Mu, he made a special order to let them have a good rest after they came back and not to enter the palace.

Pei Mu has been kneeling in the ancestral hall, while Xi Yan is standing beside him and guarding him.

After the sky completely darkened, Pei Mu slowly stood up, turned his head and glanced outside the door, and saw that there was already snow outside the ancestral hall.

The heavy snow was still falling, and the cold wind blew in through the gate of the ancestral hall, so he looked at the banquet beside him in a daze.

Seeing that Xi Yan didn't say a word, but hugged the cloak tightly, Pei Mu's eyes were still a little red.

"Your Majesty, it was my negligence."

As he said that, he raised his hand to hold Xi Yan's hand in his, and it was cold, but his hand was indeed warm.

He warmed him carefully, Xi Yan looked at him blankly, Pei Mu lowered her head, looking at the white jade-like palm which was in sharp contrast to his hand.

"Your Majesty's hand is softer than a woman's."

Hearing this, Xi Yan's ears turned red, and she immediately wanted to withdraw her hand, but Pei Mu held it tighter.

"What you said, could it be that you have touched a woman's hand?"

Pei Mu chuckled, "I don't have that kind of blessing."
