Liang Jianyan

Early the next morning, Yan Chen just woke up to go to the school field for practice.As soon as he opened the tent door, he saw Zuo Duo standing at the door with Ashina under his arm.

"Nian of the Crane, is there something wrong?"

Zuo Duo was startled by Yan Chen's voice, he came back to his senses and quickly took out a piece of paper from his jacket, "Brother, this is a letter from His Majesty."

"A letter from His Majesty?" Yan Chen frowned, "Where is Your Majesty?"

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty has left."

"gone?"

"Before dawn, His Majesty went to the camp to look for me, and said he was going to leave. I will tell you when you wake up, and hand this letter to you by the way."

When Yan Chen heard this, he quickly looked around - sure enough, all the members of the Qianji Army were gone.After thinking for a while, he opened the piece of paper, and there were only a few words on it.

[Turkic people are full of tricks, I have already dealt with Ashina, and I will leave the rest to you.I'm going back to the imperial capital first, waiting for your triumphant return, take care of it. 】

dispose of?

He couldn't help looking at Ashina—at this moment, he was only wearing a rag, which was as tattered as a begging refugee.Yan Chen saw the two puddles of blood around his knees all at once.

"Your Majesty ordered someone to cut him to death." Zuo Duo whispered in Yan Chen's ear, "and... also made him dumb."

"What?" Yan Chen looked at Ashina——this person was really different from last night, kneeling on the ground weakly, with his back arched, and the blood on his body was black.He no longer had any arrogance, just nodded his head once and for all, as if he was praying for something.

He will never be able to speak, never be able to stand up, all he prayed for was to survive.

The scene of him hiding in the dung cart flashed in his mind, and after six years of wandering, a chill suddenly flowed from his heart and penetrated into his limbs, Yan Chen felt his stomach churning, and felt nauseous and wanted to vomit.

He suddenly remembered what Ashina had said to him last night—do you think such a cruel person as Liang Xuanliang would let you go?

Why didn't you kill Liang Xuanliang!

"Big brother, big brother?"

"what?"

"Why do you have such an ugly face? Are you feeling unwell again?" Zuo Duo couldn't help worrying when he saw that his face turned pale in an instant, with no blood at all.

Yan Chen smiled awkwardly, and said it's okay, after a while I'll ask Young to help me get the medicine that Bai Xu left for me.

He turned around and walked towards the school grounds, only to find that his steps were vain—for the first time, he felt a sense of fear, and this feeling came from Liang Xuanliang.Even though he confronted Liang Xuanliang in the Taihua Hall a year ago, and he was tortured in the jail, he never felt this way, as if his whole body was trembling, but he pretended to be calm.Could it be that he will be like Ashina in the end, life would be better than death?

For the first time, he had the intent to kill Liang Xuanliang.

A group of people galloped in the yellow desert, it was Liang Xuanliang's team.After driving for half a day, they found a place to rest.The dark guard gave the water bag to Liang Xuanliang, but Liang Xuanliang drank it in big gulps regardless of his image.Bai Xu stood beside him, looking into the distance constantly.Seeing this, Liang Xuanliang laughed, saying that you are in such a hurry to return to the Imperial Capital?

Bai Xu immediately bowed and said, I want to see if there is a tea shed in the distance so that His Majesty can rest.But I thought in my heart: Of course I want to go back, who likes to stay in this place where no shit!

Liang Xuanliang laughed loudly, let's talk about it, I know very well the pettiness in your hearts.

Alas, if someone is like you, then it would be great to return to the Imperial Capital urgently.

Bai Xu naturally knew who he was talking about, but he didn't point it out, he just comforted Liang Xuanliang and said: "Your Majesty is sincere, that person will definitely be moved."

"Hmph, sincerity?" Liang Xuanliang seemed to hear some big joke, "Why am I talking about sincerity with him? I'm afraid he won't believe me if I dig out my heart."

As an emperor, you should be more thoughtful, he and I are just the same kind of people.But as long as I can keep him by my side, what's the matter if I put more thought into it?

"By the way, did you keep the medicine?"

"Return to Your Majesty, I have given all the medicine for Yan Canjun to Young Young, and told him to watch Yan Canjun drink it."

Liang Xuanliang nodded.He took out two small porcelain bottles from his pocket, one white and one black, both crystal clear.He couldn't help but silently recited the word "Junran" in his heart, and then held the two porcelain bottles tightly.

I absolutely do not allow anyone to take you away from me, not even yourself and the King of Hades.

However, he didn't know at that time that his admiration was mixed with too much selfishness, and eventually became an insurmountable gap between him and him.Any one of them, if they take a step, they will be smashed to pieces; if they take a step back, they will be lost forever.

Seven days later, the Turks voluntarily withdrew from Huichuan, and the soldiers of Daliang entered the city and released Ashina.The days didn't seem to change, Liang Xuanliang came and left quietly.Every time the fight ends, Yan Chen stands under the night sky, looking at the sea of ​​clouds, rivers and stars, feeling that his surroundings are so unreal.He seemed to be in a daze, always torn by the voices of demons and ghosts, and gradually the voices of those people became clearer, and Yan Chen realized that the voices all came from one person——Liang Xuanliang.

He even began to suspect that this was just a dream woven by the succubus to punish the sins he committed in his previous life, and Liang Xuanliang was not only the life-threatening ghost, but also the gentle fairy who put him on the line of life and death. Put him on fire and ice.He spent countless nights in this dream, until the bitter medicine slid down his throat, and he suddenly understood that it was all true.

Everything is true. Daqing has long since ceased to exist. He is a remnant of the previous dynasty and a subject of Liang Xuanliang.

... Oh, it's really miserable, it's really ridiculous.

Until that day, when he received a letter from Liang Xuanliang, he found a note in the envelope.

There was only one word written on it, but it was not Liang Xuanliang's handwriting: Ren.

This word was like a bolt of lightning, piercing through Yan Chen's last fantasy - he finally understood why he had to be so forbearing, why he wanted to help Liang Xuanliang conquer the world.When will the so-called freedom and dignity return to his body?

He doesn't want to be a swallow locked between the beams.

Tolerate!

A year later, the Great Liang army fought a decisive battle with the Turkic army in Gaochang. The battle lasted for three days and three nights, but the Turkic army finally conceded defeat and withdrew from the border of Great Liang.The war between Great Liang and the Turks was finally over.

This battle lasted for three full years.

Drunk lying on the battlefield, Lord Grim, how many people have fought in ancient times?

Today, the first rain of spring fell in the imperial capital, and three thousand silver threads moistened everything, just waiting for the spring breeze to never be cold.In the hazy scenery, the team coming from a distance gradually became clear.Standing on the tower, Liang Xuanliang couldn't help standing on tiptoe, but felt that the rain and fog disturbed his sight, so he hurried downstairs and ran to the gate of the city.Even though Yan Chen had some stubble on his face, Liang Xuanliang recognized him immediately.He watched Yan Chen approaching him on horseback, got off the horse halfway, and walked towards him step by step.He was a little annoyed—Yan Chen, why did you walk so slowly? ! !He waited while reading, until Yan Chen walked in front of him, bowed and said: "See Your Majesty", he was relieved.

"Yan Junran, you are so courageous!"

Everyone present was frightened to death by his words, knelt on the ground and dared not get up.Only Yan Chen raised his head and glanced at Liang Xuanliang, and then said: "I'm late, please forgive me, Your Majesty."

"Of course I want to punish you!" Liang Xuanliang helped Yan Chen up, but the smile on his face couldn't be stopped. "I will punish you to tell me about the past three years after the celebration banquet tonight."

Yan Chen responded with a smile, "Okay".

Yan Chen didn't have a mansion, so Zuo Duo took him to the prime minister's mansion.The only young master of Zuo Xiang's family has stayed in the battlefield for three years, and now he has made military achievements, and it is an honor for the entire Xiang family to return in triumph.Zuo Zhiqing ordered someone to prepare a banquet early on, so as to welcome his son.But when he saw Yan Chen, his face immediately turned cold - why did this remnant of the previous dynasty follow? ! !

However, Zuo Duo didn't know what his father was thinking, so he took Yan Chen and introduced him to Zuo Zhiqing: "Father, this is Yan Chenyan joining the army, my sworn elder brother, he taught me a lot during this expedition!"

Yan Chen cupped his hands and saluted, and said: "I pay my respects to Prime Minister Zuo, please forgive me for disturbing you."

"Uh...Since Yan Canjun is here, he is a guest of my house." Zuo Zhiqing didn't know how to make things right. He wholeheartedly devoted himself to serving the Great Liang imperial family, and it was really a shame to let him talk to this remnant of the former dynasty. awkward.

Yan Chen naturally knew Zuo Zhiqing's thoughts - this old guy was the one who wrote to ask Liang Xuanliang to execute him.He must have seen his son and the person he hated so much call brother and brother, this old man Zuo was so angry that he was half dead.

But what's the matter?How many insults and floggings have I suffered, what can the sky do to me, what can the earth do to me, and what can you do to me?

With a modest and docile smile on his face, Yan Chen exchanged a few words with Zuo Zhiqing, and then followed the servants to wash up.As soon as Yan Chen left, Zuo Zhiqing pulled Zuo Duo into the study, "Why are you so close to Yan Chen?"

Zuo Duo smiled and said that we are both lieutenant soldiers, and we should fight bloody enemies together, so we should be close!

Besides, he is my sworn brother, and he has taught me a lot!

Zuo Zhiqing slapped Zuo Duo on the head, "You are so stupid, he is a remnant of the previous dynasty, you are a subject of Great Liang, a relative of the emperor, how can you get involved with him?!"

"What happened to the remnants of the former dynasty?!! Isn't he also a courtier of Great Liang now!!!" Zuo Duo felt that he was extremely wronged by this slap, "Brother Yan's joining the army was personally appointed by His Majesty, and His Majesty didn't say anything , why are you in a hurry!"

"Unfilial son, why did you talk to me!"

Do you know that when Sima Shen led King Zhou to rebel and force the palace, Yan Chen also led people to ambush him outside, trying to get the mantis to catch the cicada and the oriole, and almost killed His Majesty!His Majesty will execute Yan Chen sooner or later.My Zuo family has been the disciples of the Liang family for generations, and I have received the favor of the Liang family. Now I will be loyal to His Majesty. How can I associate with such a disobedient rebel like Yan Chen!

"But brother, he sacrificed his life on the battlefield, and he is also fighting for Daliang!" Zuo Duo was a little anxious, "You can't deny his meritorious deeds just because of the past!"

Besides, His Majesty obviously thinks highly of Brother Yan, I don't believe His Majesty will execute Brother Yan.

"Your qualifications are still young, so naturally you don't understand what His Majesty means." Zuo Zhiqing sighed, "The heart of an emperor is unpredictable. He didn't kill Yan Chen at the beginning because he wanted to fight a war. Now that the war is over, how can he do that?" Leaving a scourge to make myself sleepless day and night!"

You listen to your father and don't associate with Yan Chen again. This is for your own good, and even more for the good of my Zuo family!

"This..." Zuo Duo still wanted to explain, but he hesitated and talked for a long time.

What can they do as courtiers?

After Yan Chen washed up, he saw Zuo Duo standing in the garden.Seeing his frown so sad, Yan Chen could guess what Zuo Zhiqing said in his heart - it was also embarrassing for the kid He Nian.

"Year of the Crane."

With his back straight, Zuo Duo came back to his senses, and when he saw Yan Chen, he was in a complicated mood, and it took him a long time to call out "Brother".

Walking up to him with a smile, Yan Chen patted his shoulder. "I won't stay at the house for the banquet."

"Eh?" Zuo Duo was taken aback, "Brother, where are you going?"

"Find an inn to rest your feet, or go to Hualou if you can't." Yan Chen sighed, "I know what the left minister said to you, so you don't have to make trouble."

Now with your strength, you can stand alone, and I don't need to teach you anything, as long as you remember me as a big brother in your heart.

"Brother! Eh..." Before Zuo Duo could stop him, Yan Chen strode out of the prime minister's mansion.

Less than a hundred steps out of the Xiangfu gate, Youngang ran to catch up. "My lord, why did you leave me and leave?"

"Can I leave you behind?" Yan Chen said, "You follower, even if I don't tell you, you can still follow."

The young man grinned—I was already praising me like an adult.

So he took Young to a tea pavilion, and the two of them were warming up in the ice and snow, drinking tea.It wasn't until evening that he leisurely entered the palace for the banquet.

Zhu Fengtai is just as gorgeous as it was three years ago, but no one seems to remember the bloody events that happened here.There is only the interlacing of toasting and singing and dancing.Tonight was the emperor's welcome for the heroes who fought in the Northwest. Apart from Qi Zhaoyan, Zuo Zhiqing, and Fu Yunting, all the generals who came to the banquet were generals.The emperor said: "You don't have to be restrained." These people really became more relaxed, and they were toasting with pride.

Yan Chen sat at the farthest place from Liang Xuanliang - this was the seat Liang Xuanliang arranged for him.After all, there is a difference between closeness and closeness. Even though he has made great contributions in the past three years, his identity still cannot be erased.

He is the former prince.

But sitting in the distance also has the advantage of sitting in the distance - Yan Chen observed Liang Xuanliang from the corner of his eye while drinking wine.After not seeing each other for such a long time, he is more able to fight in front of his courtiers than before, and chatting with Yang Heng Zuoduo and the others is very happy.

... What an extraordinary little emperor.

He thought so, but Liang Xuanliang's eyes fell on him.The corners of Liang Xuanliang's mouth turned up, and his eyes narrowed slightly, as if to say: Why are you peeking at me?

Yan Chen smiled, and simply put his head on one hand, looking at Liang Xuanliang - what is peeking, I am obviously looking at it openly.

Unexpectedly, Yan Chen responded like this, Liang Xuanliang was stunned for a moment.He grinned, and gave Yan Chen a slap in the face.Yan Chen couldn't help laughing - this little emperor must be scolding me, not knowing what to do.

Liang Xuanliang felt that Yan Chen's smile was eye-catching, so he called Du Guanxuan, whispered a few words to him, and then left.Du Guanxuan walked to Yan Chen's side, and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, please invite Master Yan to Qinghu Lake for a gathering."

"Minister obeys the order." Yan Chen was not surprised, after he complied, he caught someone who was not paying attention and walked out.

Liang Xuanliang had already been waiting in Qinghu for a while, and when she saw Yan Chen coming late, her temper flared up again. "You are so bold, you dare to let me wait for you!"

"If your majesty and I leave at the same time, I'm afraid someone will be suspicious." Yan Chen said calmly, "I'm thinking of your majesty."

"Hmph, then I have to thank Yan Aiqing for her kindness."

"The minister's duty lies."

Liang Xuanliang clicked her lips, saying that after such a long time, you are good at eloquence.But Yan Chen said, I'm afraid you want to hear me being so rebellious in the future, but you won't hear it.

These words fell on Liang Xuanliang's eyebrows like falling snow, freezing his smile.He looked at Yan Chen until the other party's smile also froze on his face.

"You still want to leave me?"

"...Did you call me out just to ask this question?"

"Yes."

"...You promised me that day that as long as I help you defeat the Turks, you will give me back my freedom." Yan Chen sighed, "I don't want to be up and down in this troubled world anymore."

No joke, I believe you once.

"...Of course I'm not joking." Liang Xuanliang said, "I just pity you for being a talent, and it's a pity to be left in the dust."

You have done your best, you didn't leave the battle halfway, and you didn't leave without saying goodbye on the way back to Beijing, I am very pleased.

"Leaving the imperial capital, where are you going?"

"The world is so big, there is always a place for me."

"Then you'd better go far away, or I will see you again on my territory one day, and I won't be so patient."

Yan Chen didn't know what to reply, so he could only lower his eyes.A snowflake fell on his lips, breaking a little light.Liang Xuanliang watched the light melt on Yan Chen's lips, and immediately followed like a demon.He took a step forward, lowered his head slightly, and held the coldness in his mouth.

Feeling a warmth from her lips, Yan Chen was slightly taken aback.When he realized what Liang Xuanliang was doing, he only felt hot-headed, all senses were almost numb, only a little rubbing on his lips made his heart ache and itchy.It wasn't until the warmth turned into a rough touch that Yan Chen came back to his senses—Liang Xuanliang smiled and touched Yan Chen's lips with her fingertips, and when she saw Yan Chen frowning, she withdrew her hand and stepped back Take a few steps.The smell of ambergris tainted in the mouth flowed into the apex of the heart along the blood.

What are you doing?

"A piece of snow fell on your lips." Liang Xuanliang said, "I will taste the taste of this snow."

This kind of answer made Yan Chen's temples throb, "Your Majesty, it's best not to do this kind of children's pranks in the future."

But Liang Xuanliang played a rogue, saying: "You are about to leave me, what's wrong with my kiss, you will not lose a piece of meat!"

Having said that, Yan Chen would be a little cautious if he entangled in this matter again.He suppressed the weak emotion, and gradually stretched out his body and mind—yes, it will disappear in the future.

"Alas." Liang Xuanliang's sigh seemed to contain a thousand words, but it was just an exclamation.There are some things that cannot be said, and even if they are said, it may not be a good result. It is better to be so unclear and go back with the wind. "You go." He said, "Treasure."

Yan Chen's body froze - he wanted to say something, but just like Liang Xuanliang, he couldn't say anything, and in the end he could only change into the same two words "precious".

He turned around, and when he took the first step, the scene of Yan's being slaughtered flashed in his mind, and he remembered the cruelty of his father's brutal corpse at Xishikou.When he took the second step, he remembered that he returned to the imperial capital that day, stepped up the steps step by step, looked at the little emperor in front of him, and was about to compete with him and regain his throne.When he took the third step, he thought of all the things he had with Liang Xuanliang - tit for tat, drinking under the moon, meeting each other on the battlefield, being together in the snow... He suddenly discovered that there are so many memories with Liang Xuanliang.It was so much that even the chest was oppressed and I couldn't breathe.

Could it be that if I hurt one of your eyes, do I really have to spend my whole life paying it back?

He suddenly felt dizzy—who lost whom?

But these questions were all turned into one sentence the moment he lost consciousness - Liang Xuanliang, you bastard!

He quickly reached out and ran forward, and the fainted man landed firmly in his arms.Liang Xuanliang tightened her arms, thinking that this person is really heavy.

He covered Yan Chen with his golden dark pattern cloak—the wind and frost of the battlefield made the person in his arms look a little haggard, which inadvertently touched the softness in his heart.

This time, I will not promise to let you leave me again.
