The leader is a little crazy

Chapter 053] Youth Matters

The two discussed for a while, took a bath for Sheng'er, and changed into new clothes.Sheng'er put on new clothes, excitedly played with his new toy, and soon became sleepy again, with his head hanging down, and the top of his head fell asleep on the quilt.Murong Zhi laid him flat, put his hands and feet in place, and covered him with a quilt.Chi Lu took a bath behind the screen, wiped her wet hair and came out to enjoy the cool by the window.

Since Feng Jiuyang was also in Longcheng, they couldn't go out easily.There are not many things left to do, only chatting and reading books.Yesterday, he ordered his subordinates to buy a lot of books, especially Chi Lu's favorite legends and legends.

There is a cool breeze outside the window, Wuling is windy, and the summer night is especially cool.

Murong Zhi suddenly recalled the past when he was a teenager. He was not used to the mountain wind when he first arrived in Wuling when he was a teenager, but he fell in love with this feeling after blowing too much.At that time, he and Chi Lu lived in the same room, but at that time there were a lot of conflicts between the two of them, and they didn't have much heart-to-heart talk. Most of the time, he had to guard against this little troublemaker and prevent his tricks from succeeding.

On a whim, Murong Zhi asked, "Chi Lu, do you remember when we first met?"

Chi Lu was surprised: "Why did you mention this all of a sudden?"

"It's nothing, I just suddenly remembered the past and felt a little emotional. I first came to Wuling when I was 15 years old, and it has been more than ten years. At that time, you were only this tall."

Murong Zhi gestured for the height with his hands.Chi Lu replied: "Yes, time flies by."

"I used to waste a lot of time rebelling, so when I think of the scene when I was a teenager, I think it is very precious. Do you know? Although I was often teased by you at that time, when I returned to Sichuan, I recalled the truth of these things. At that time, I was very happy. Because no one has ever gotten along with me like this. There are only obedient servants and strict parents in the palace of the Shu Palace. When I think about it, I still think that I was happier when I was in Wuling."

Murongzhi touched Sheng'er's little head, leaned against the bed, and continued: "Chi Lu, I envy you very much. You can play in the mountains without any worries since you were young. You have a good brain, and you can learn things quickly. It doesn’t take much effort at all. I’m much more stupid, and I’m often punished by my master for copying.”

After wiping her hair, Chi Lu put the towel off her head, and her black hair spread out.He said: "Actually, I am not as comfortable as you think. Everyone has their own troubles, so why envy others."

Murong asked: "Do you have any troubles?"

Chi Lu sat down beside him, thought for a while, and said: "I was very naughty when I was young, and no one would talk to me. I often feel quite lonely."

Murong Zhi said: "You are also called lonely? I have never had a friend since I was a child." He paused, and added: "Except you, if you admit that I am your friend."

Chi Lu asked: "Are you still lonely?"

"If you stay with me, I won't feel lonely. I'm a person who accepts death. I like you, it's a lifetime thing."

Chi Lu scratched her head, at a loss for Murong Zhi's sudden love words.

Murong Zhi looked at him and said, "Chi Lu, you like me, right?"

Chi Lu was stunned for a while, then nodded slightly.

Murong Zhi was overjoyed, and asked, "When did it happen?"

"I..." He hesitated: "One time, in Suzhou. I said I was gone, but I was still there. It was raining that day, and I hid on the corner of the roof. You stood in the courtyard with an umbrella, I kept looking around and stood there for almost an hour before putting away the umbrella in frustration. I think... I probably started to like you since then. "

Murong Zhi was stunned, and the corners of his eyes were slightly wet.He failed in the rebellion that year, and has been hiding in Jiangnan Suzhou since he was rescued by Chi Lu.At that time, Chi Lu occasionally passed by when he was traveling in the mountains and water, and came to rest for two days.Every time Chi Lu left, he would be lost for a long time, hoping that he would stop by next time.

He is often drunk every day and doesn't spend much time awake.In addition to thinking about his father's unfulfilled wish and the country that missed him, Chi Lu thinks the most.He didn't know why he was so infatuated with Chi Lu, maybe it was because Chi Lu was the most beautiful memory and object of his admiration when he was young.

He often thinks how happy he would be if he were Chi Lu and grew up freely in the mountains of Wuling.

"Then why didn't you tell me earlier?" Murong Zhi's voice was hoarse.He never thought that Chi Lu would like him at that time.He has been decadent for more than half a year, drinking heavily every day.Especially after being crippled by Chi Lu's palm, he felt that life was hopeless.He said, "If you could have told me earlier, I wouldn't have been so sad at the time."

Chi Lu lowered her head and said softly: "I never thought that I would like you, I think we are not suitable. Ever since I knew you were going to rebel, I felt that we were two people. No, I thought we were two people from the beginning. There are two kinds of people, you are the son of the eldest son, and I am just a country boy. If you hadn't come to Wuling, we would never have met in our lifetime."

"Rebellion?" Murong Zhi caught something, and continued to ask: "I went back to Wuling to attend the funeral of the master. At that time, you were very indifferent to me, because you knew I was going to rebel?"

Chi Lu nodded slightly, and said: "Father told me. He said that the king of Shu has always coveted the throne, and if he can't get it, he will let you fight for it. I am a person who doesn't like to fight. From the perspective of me and ordinary people like me, as long as there are no harsh punishments and taxes, everything is the same. The world is in chaos, and it is the people who suffer after all.”

Murong Zhi put his arms around Chi Lu's shoulders, and said: "It's not that I didn't know this before. The throne of Yan Kingdom is what my father always wanted. He thinks that the throne belongs to him. I was instilled with this concept since I was a child. I didn't think too much about the rest of the matter. When you say that, I feel guilty. During the rebellion, the people were displaced, and many cronies were killed or injured. Only a few dead soldiers were left by my side. After the failure, I I thought I was going to die, but unexpectedly I was saved by you. I think I am living an ordinary life like this, which is actually pretty good. If you are by my side, I can ignore other things, just like this It’s nice to grow old and die in one place.”

Quietly at night, the bustling crowd gradually dispersed, and the street gradually became deserted.Chi Lu said: "If possible, I would like to go around with you again, and finally settle down in a place with beautiful mountains and rivers."

Murong Zhi was ecstatic when he heard that.He never thought that one day they would be able to talk like this, and Chi Lu even said when he started to like him, and that he wanted to travel with him and make a home in a place with beautiful mountains and rivers.

"Okay, with your words, I am content."

Whether it is a country farmer or a prince or aristocrat, the time of youth is fleeting.Before time, everyone is equal.

Murong Zhi always felt a little resentful when he thought about the fact that he failed to accomplish anything even though he was young, but today it was fulfilled, because he missed the person who said he liked him throughout his youth.

Chi Lu stretched, and opened a book of legends under the dim oil lamp.Murong Zhi said: "I don't really read this kind of book, can you tell me the story?"

Chi Lu smiled and said: "This kind of book is just to pass the time and make people happy. But people live a lifetime, and the picture is to be happy." He turned two pages and said: "I still tell you that I used to read it. It's a good story."

He blew out the oil lamp on the table and sat side by side with Murong Zhi.Murong Zhi leaned against the bed, listening to the story quietly.There are many stories in Chi Lu's stomach, all of which she has read since she was a child.Murong Zhi found it interesting and listened very carefully.

Sheng'er slept deeply and was not disturbed at all, occasionally kicking her little feet.

Murong Zhi seems to have returned to the time when he was still in Wuling more than ten years ago.It is windy at night in Wuling, and when the wind blows, the large forests in the mountains rustle.Chi Lu often went out to play wild with children of the same age in the school, leaving him alone in the small bamboo house.When he felt lonely, he would sit on a big rock at the end of the small bamboo forest and listen to the mountain wind blowing quietly.

He actually wanted to talk to Chi Lu more, but at that time Chi Lu seemed to have inexhaustible tricks, and when he wasn't playing tricks with him, he would look at his ghosts alone, and would ignore him at all.

After Chi Lu talked for more than half an hour, Murong Zhi yawned and finally fell asleep.Say good night, undress and rest.

Chi Lu looked at Murong Zhi's silhouette under the moonlight, slightly lost in thought.

Earlier, he thought he hated Murong Zhi, and kept running away from his sight.The more Murong Zhi pursued him, the more he was annoyed.Unexpectedly, after going around for many years, he still turned back here, back to him.This may be fate.
