Suya

Chapter 6

The rain is clear and the mountains have a state, the wind is late and the water has no trace. Leaving the country in early spring is so beautiful that it is heartbreaking.

Feng Chen ignored all the surrounding scenery, walked around the outside of Liguo's palace alone, and then jumped onto the roof with a little toe.No matter how beautiful the scenery is, he has no intention of appreciating it. He has a heavy responsibility tonight, and that is—meeting Li Xi Ruo again.

Feng Chen flew over the eaves and walked over the walls, familiar with the road, as if entering a no-man's land. After a while, he had already crossed the palace walls and arrived at Niling Palace.

The crimson flowers burned the ancient trees in the sky, and the thick trunks rose from the ground, one after another, forming a circle, and the beautiful petals swirled gracefully and fell into the green pool under the tree. The water in the pool was sparkling and clear. Like a mirror.

There is an ancient pavilion in the pool, which looks like a fairyland in a fairyland against the backdrop of the shimmering waves. A snow-white figure stands in the ancient pavilion, blending in a variety of purples and reds.

Feng Chen was sitting on a tree branch, his eyes closely followed the person in the pavilion, when he was fascinated by the sight, the person suddenly raised his head and looked straight at Feng Chen, his black eyes were as deep as autumn water , Feng Chen was taken aback when he saw it, and almost fell from the tree.

Feng Chen was about to speak, but Li Xi Ruo withdrew his eyes and continued to stare at the faint green water under the pavilion. Feng Chen suddenly felt a little disappointed, and jumped down from the tree resentfully, skimming over the water like a phoenix, dodging into the water. to the gazebo.

A jug of wine and two cups were placed on the stone table in the pavilion.

Feng Chen was taken aback for another moment, and laughed dumbfoundedly: "I said, National Teacher, you are not here to wait for me, are you? Is that why you miss me?"

Li Xiruo nodded slightly, but did not speak.

Feng Chen stared at his thin back, guessing whether he was answering his first question or the second question, thought for a while, but still couldn't figure it out, so he sat down at the stone table and started drinking.

As soon as the wine glass was raised to his lips, Li Xiruo turned around and walked towards the stone table.The cold moonlight streamed on the robe, and a strand of black hair brushed against his cheeks. At a glance, he looked like a fairy walking from the auspicious clouds.

The wine glass in Feng Chen's hand was tilted, and the wine almost spilled on the floor.

Li Xiruo glanced at him, sat down at the table without saying a word, filled another wine glass, and toasted him.

Feng Chen smiled, bumped into his wine glass, drank it down in one gulp, then lowered his head and took the wine pot, filled the wine glass again, and drank with his head up.

Li Xiruo didn't drink, so after clinking glasses with him, he put down the glass, looked at him for a while, then turned to look at the bright moon hanging high.

The two sat in the pavilion in silence like this, one admiring the moon, the other drinking, after some time passed, the moonlight gradually became thicker, and the wine pot slowly bottomed out, Li Xiruo finally said, "Feng Chen."

"Huh?" Feng Chen put down his wine glass and looked at him.

Li Xiruo raised his head and looked at the bright moon hanging outside the pavilion, his expression was a bit lonely: "Tell me, when will the waning moon be full?"

"This..." Feng Chen also raised his head and looked at the bright moon. After looking at it for a while, he said half-jokingly: "The fifteenth and sixteenth of every month will be round."

Li Xiruo looked back at him, lowered her head, and smiled. There was a trace of helplessness in the smile, but also a trace of connivance.

Feng Chen looked at the corners of his slightly curved mouth, deliberately ignored the deep meaning in his smile, and pretended to be surprised and said: "National teacher, so you can laugh?"

Li Xiruo raised her head and blinked suspiciously: "Why do you say that?"

"From the first time I saw you yesterday, until just now, you didn't have any expression on your face. I thought you couldn't laugh at all, but I didn't expect..." Feng Chen leaned on the table, making a gesture The obscene smiley expression of a rascal in the market when he flirts with a woman from a good family: "It's pretty nice when you smile."

"En." Li Xiruo nodded, but there was no joy on his face. He smoothed the hair hanging from his ears with his hands, then bent down to pick up a jar of wine under the table, and said in a low voice while unpacking: "You should have seen me laugh before."

Feng Chen's heart skipped a beat. He pretended to be calm and took the wine jar and began to pour wine into the flagon. At the same time, he said without changing his face: "It's been too long, I can't remember clearly."

Li Xiruo didn't say anything more.

The mellow aroma of the wine drifts out with the poured nectar, which is refreshing and makes you get drunk before you drink it.

The wine pot was full, Feng Chen picked up the wine jar and wanted to drink up the rest of the wine, but Li Xi Ruo held his hand: "Feng Chen, this is not an ordinary wine, it has great stamina."

Feng Chen had no choice but to give up, put down the wine jar, and took the wine glass from Li Xi Ruo's hand.

The aroma of the wine is strong, and the moonlight is intoxicating.

After drinking for three rounds, Feng Chen gradually became a little drunk, looking at the shattered moon shadow on the lake, many past events flooded his mind.From playing in childhood to fighting on the battlefield, from the corrupted capital to the desolate border town, scenes flashed by in front of my eyes, which made people feel flustered.

Feng Chen found helplessly that the magnificence and joy of the past were so vague and far away, only horns, flags, yellow sand, and blood were real.

This is all he has. As a former prince, his home is in a remote, desolate and lonely border.

For the first time in his life, Feng Chen felt that his life was quite boring. Over the years, he made up countless excuses for himself, and then hid in the yellow sandy frontier to just pass by.

It's time for all this to end.

"National teacher, I actually have something important to do today." Feng Chen stared at his own reflection in the wine glass, and said faintly: "I want to take you away."
