Blade of Wind

I frowned slightly and said, "What do you think he talked to me about?"

He lowered his eyes and said nothing.

I smiled and said, "He told me he could organize merchants to buy this year's crops at a high price, and asked me if I was interested."

Xiu Huang directly frowned, "Put the green seedlings?"

"Release young crops" sounds like a special term, although I haven't heard of it, but based on the previous conversation with Yishan, I can probably understand what it means.So he nodded and said, "What? Do you have any suggestions?"

Xiu Huang didn't answer, but only asked: "Has the lord agreed?"

I shook my head and said: "Not yet. Of course, I should go back and discuss this with Yuexi and the others first."

Only then did Xiu Huang seem relieved, paused, and asked again: "Did my father mention anything else?"

"No." I said, "What are you worried about?"

A blush flashed across Xiu Huang's face, and after a while he said softly: "I'm worried that my father will misunderstand my relationship with the Lord, and therefore make some unreasonable demands on the Lord."

"Eh?" I recalled Yi Shan's benevolent eyebrows, such a person, why would Xiu Huang have such doubts?So I asked again: "Are you afraid that he will make some unreasonable demands?"

Xiuhuang hesitated again, before saying, "Xianji."

I looked at him, blinked, a little puzzled. "Does it mean entering the court to be an official?"

Xiu Huang shook his head, and said: "You don't have to be a member of the court to join the fairyland. You can also be appointed as a small official in name only. There is no real job and no salary. In fact, as a relative of a king or an official, It’s a common practice no matter what time of day it is.”

I pondered for a while, and then asked: "If you don't have a real job, is it just for longevity to join the immortal?"

Xiu Huang nodded lightly, and said: "My father is over 60 years old. With this family business, no monsters or famines will probably cause any harm to him. But the time is different. Want to escape After aging and death, there is only one way to become a fairy. In this world, although there are some people who move the emperor of heaven with their own will and become flying immortals, for my father, it is obviously more feasible to ask the Lord."

That's right, compared to the Heavenly Emperor who doesn't know where he is or whether he is in a good mood today, it is of course much more direct and easier to beg me.

Even without Xiuhuang's relationship, Yishan has already shown me goodwill all the way. If he can really help me out of this predicament this time, I should return his favor to some extent, right?

What's more, according to Xiuhuang, there are quite a few relatives of officials who have joined the fairyland in this way.Even if he is not really my male favourite, he can still be regarded as a friend, a relative of an official is fine, and the father of a friend of a king of a country is naturally fine.

In fact, even if Yishan really told me about this matter today, it wouldn't be considered an excessive request, would it?

I couldn't help but frowned again, looked at Xiu Huang, and said, "You don't seem to have a good opinion of your father...?"

Xiu Huang was startled, his expression became complicated, he sighed after a while, and said: "It's hard to say whether it's good or bad, but... my father is a real businessman."

The implication is... No business, no evil?

I was a little tired and grinned wordlessly.

Xiu Huang poured me a cup of tea and said softly, "Sorry."

"What are you apologizing for?" I laughed, "There's nothing wrong with being a businessman, right? If it's really mutually beneficial, it's not impossible to cooperate. Speaking of which, I should also thank you. Whether it's during the day, I came here on purpose. Just remind me."

Xiu Huang looked at me, smiled, and said, "I should also thank the Lord."

"Eh?" I propped my chin on my hand, and turned my head to look at him, "I don't remember helping you."

Xiu Huang was quiet for a while before saying: "Actually, I have always had an unrealistic fantasy about Penglai and Kunlun. I always feel that there must be a fairyland where everyone can live and work in peace and contentment. That's why Shanke Haike brought That kind of technology and art. I always feel that this place is so backward and ugly in comparison. I even think, if one day I can leave here and go to Penglai.”

I listened quietly, without interrupting.

Xiuhuang was only a few years older than me, that is to say, when he was born, Zhongta was probably about to lose his way.I'm afraid that from the time he can remember, all he has seen is decay, depravity and death, so it's no wonder he has such thoughts.

Xiu Huang continued: "So I have been collecting and researching things about Haike. I have also met one or two Haike, but because of the language barrier and the difference in my own environment, I can't communicate well at all. I have always felt very sorry. At this time, I heard that Taifu chose the king of fetal fruit. Many people were skeptical, but I was very happy. From ancient times to the present, there are not many kings of fetal fruit, but each of them will bring unprecedented innovation. We The new king will surely bring us a new country like Penglai, right? I'm looking forward to it in my heart."

I had no choice but to laugh helplessly, "Sorry, I'm really sorry to disappoint you."

"No, no. The lord knelt down to the people at the enthronement ceremony, which shocked me, but at the same time strengthened my determination to stand beside the lord and watch the new country emerge with my own eyes. But..." Xiu Huang After a pause, his eyes shifted to me, and his voice softened, "I saw the Lord's injury before I saw the divine power of the Lord."

I pursed my lips and said nothing.

"It's just a 19-year-old girl, and there are so many old scars on her body. I don't know what kind of life I lived before."

I originally wanted to explain that those injuries were entirely personal, and it had nothing to do with whether I was a fetal fruit or where I lived, but before I could speak, Xiuhuang sighed softly again, "Besides, the Lord is also the first one who can tell me People who discuss Changshi and Penglai. When the Lord asked about my affairs, he was also telling me Haike’s thoughts. Whether it was before or today, look at the words and deeds of the Lord, and discuss with the Lord. , I realized that no matter where you are, people are the same. There are hardships and satisfactions. There are joys and pains. Everyone is just trying to live. But I wanted to escape and wait for others to change myself The world, and even want to simply leave here... Such thoughts are really naive and ridiculous."

"I make it sound like I'm a bad guy who breaks people's dreams." I smiled and said, "But it's actually nothing ridiculous. Who doesn't have unrealistic dreams? Who doesn't have times when they are weak and want to escape?"

Xiu Huang was quiet for a while, and even smiled, and asked softly: "The master is avoiding... Is it a famous person?"

……

I stared up at him, almost jumping up.

Do you want to hit the nail on the head like this?

...But... I am indeed running away.In fact, since that inexplicable dream one day, I have been avoiding Ao, right?Whether it's over there or here, from then on, the one who can really get along with A Ao as a brother and sister...instead, it's only during the time in the world of Yinying.

At that time... my heart and eyes were full of that person, but Ah Ao consciously kept his distance...

Thinking about these things, I felt conflicted again.

Ah Ao is as persistent as now, I will feel troubled, but at the beginning he hid alone...I think about it now but feel heartache...

I myself... what state of mind...

I stared at Xiu Huang and didn't speak for a while.

He just stood there quietly, letting me stare at him.

In the end, I had no choice but to sigh and said, "I'm an idiot."

Xiu Huang didn't make a sound.

I sighed again, "Ah Ao too. You...so too." I paused, and smiled wryly, "I told you from the very beginning that I'm such a playful, tasteless, unscrupulous person. , in the end...why do you still care if I..."

He stopped before he finished speaking.Because Xiu Huang gently took my hand.

He frowned slightly, as if he was a little confused, but his eyes were still gentle, and he said softly: "...I don't know."

"My lord will say that kind of thing before, just to warn me that my lord has no intention of getting married, and even if something happens between us, he doesn't plan to stay alone for me, right?"

Although I did mean this, but being recounted by him... even I feel... I am really a shameless scum with no sense of responsibility.He grinned self-mockingly again.

Xiu Huang continued: "But... People in Penglai seem to regard marriage as very important, but it is not here. Marriage and family formation are mostly for reasons other than feelings. When you are lonely, there are When I need it, when I want to vent, it often happens that I find someone to have sex with and then we break up. So...in fact, the master will think that it is a matter of flirting, which is really common here."

I was taken aback for a moment, then raised my eyes to look at him: "I remember we talked about something similar?"

At that time, I said that the relationship between men and women in the Twelve Kingdoms was more casual than that in Penglai, but he clearly refuted me.

Xiu Huang smiled and nodded, "Yes, I remember. What I said today was the truth, and what I said that day was also my own true thoughts. For example, my brother can marry someone for business, but I can't do it. However, it's not a mistake here, so the Lord doesn't have to belittle himself so much and say that he is so bad. And...You are not that kind of person, Lord. "

...does this count as comforting me?I pursed my lips and said nothing.

Xiu Huang continued: "I knew from the beginning that the Lord is the king, so naturally I never thought about being able to marry the Lord, or living together with the Lord. When I first got close to the Lord, I really just wanted to understand What kind of person is the king of the fetal fruit, how will he view the differences between the two worlds, and how he will rule the world... But..." He pulled my hand to his lips like that day, and kissed it slowly. Said, "I don't know why... I just want to help you... I want to get close to you... I hope you can look at me, I hope you can care about me... The Lord is right, I am indeed a fool..."

His serious and troubled expression made me feel soft somewhere in my heart.

He stood there with his waist slightly bent, his jade-like face glowed warmly under the light.

I couldn't help but raised my other hand and stroked his face.

Xiu Huang didn't resist, just frowned and looked up at me.

I stood up, approached him, gently stroked his soft and warm lips with my fingers, and said softly: "What I said that day... I mean the time outside Pusu City, I have not forgotten it."

Xiu Huang was stunned for a moment, his eyes lit up, and he didn't know whether it was surprise or joy.

So I reached out and hooked his neck, raised my head, and kissed his lips.

Xiu Huang put his arms around my waist, and then he didn't do anything else.

Well, yes, that day I just said, I want him to come back obediently and let me kiss.

I smiled, bit his lower lip, and bit it.

I bite lightly, so it shouldn't hurt him, but Xiu Huang tightened his arms around me, and a low moan escaped from the depths of his throat.

But at the moment it sounded more like a desire than a protest.

I lightly licked the place I just bitten with the tip of my tongue, and then slipped into his mouth.

Xiu Huang responded to me tenderly, entangled and played with my tongue, it wasn't intense, but it felt good.Gentle and lingering, like a beautiful poem, like a soothing song... I couldn't help closing my eyes, leaning on him, intoxicated.After the deep kiss was over, she still clung to his neck and leaned against his shoulder without moving.

Xiu Huang just hugged me, turned his head slightly, sighed, and rubbed my face lightly.

Originally, I just wanted to fulfill the original promise, but such a beautiful kiss made me a little reluctant to let him go.

I leaned into his arms, slid my right hand to his chest, and drew circles lightly.

Xiu Huang frowned, pressed my hand, and called out in a low voice: "...My lord."

I turned my head, kissed his slender neck, and whispered: "Call me by name..."

"Jie... that... um..."

I kissed him along his chin, and shut up what he said later, I was satisfied to hear Xiu Huang's breathing quickened, then led him to move two steps to the side, and fell on the bed.

"Jie..." Xiu Huang quickly stood up and looked at me with a frown.

His cheeks were slightly flushed, and he looked more attractive. I turned over, pressed him under me, kissed the corner of his lips, and kissed along his neck to the collarbone inch by inch, and then stretched out my hand He opened his skirt.

Xiuhuang pressed my hand again, frowned, and said softly as if begging for mercy: "Jie, don't be like this..."

"Why?" I leaned on top of him and dawdled lightly.

His body is obviously already burning with lust, and even there... has become hard.

I kissed him again and murmured, "It's all like this... don't you want me?"

"I think so." Xiu Huang said frankly, then paused, but smiled bitterly again, and said softly, "I'm just afraid that the Lord will regret it when he wakes up tomorrow."

……

I froze, my whole body froze there.

Xiu Huang didn't move any more, just lay there, looking at me quietly.

His eyes are as clear as water.

...What are you doing?

Don't have to wait until tomorrow, I regret it now.

I sighed, leaned on him as if discouraged, and murmured: "Xiu Huang, you idiot, won't you take advantage of this time? What's the point of being here now?"

Xiuhuang now became quite natural, gently stroking my back, and said with a light smile: "My lord will regret it tomorrow, and I will definitely hide and never see me again. I don't have status like Taifu. It's not worthwhile to be greedy and happy, and not see you for a few years or ten years."

I stood up and looked at him, "Now I finally believe that you and Mr. Yishan are really father and son."

He actually smiled lightly and said, "The Lord has won the prize."

I rolled over from him into the bed, pulled the quilt to wrap myself up, and turned my head to sleep.

...It's true that there is no business and no adultery!
