Survival countdown

A variety of lanterns are hung on the eaves of the restaurants lined up in the night market. The yellowish firelight illuminates half of Kyoto Prefecture one by one. There is a small stall five steps below, and the vendors are hard at work.

Before summer, there were already people selling iced sour plum soup, licorice ice and snow cold water and other cold drinks at the front of the bridge.

Zhao Baiyu walked all the way, tasted no less than ten kinds of delicacies, and he was not afraid that his appetite would be too small. Anyway, Huo Jingtang, who has a big appetite, helped to clean up the mess.

When he reached Qiaotou, he felt thirsty, so he bought two bowls of iced sour plum soup, and tasted it first, it was cold and then sweet.

Cooked in the ancient way, with rich ingredients, a bowl is satisfying.

"Delicious."

Suddenly there was a cheer: "Good!" But the acrobatics on the other side of the bridge performed to a wonderful point, and the spectators couldn't help applauding.

There is a river boat passing by under the bridge, and there are graceful singing voices in the river boat, and there are pedestrians in twos and threes on both sides of the river.

Someone on the bridge was selling lanterns, masks, peach branches, apricot blossom branches and other items. When Zhao Baiyu passed by, he stopped and took a fancy to the exquisitely crafted gilt mask, and took it off to gesture on Huo Jingtang's face.

"You said that you wore a more beautiful mask at the beginning, and the rumor that you were ugly may be changed."

Huo Jingtang glanced at the mask: "It's less of an ugly thing."

Zhao Baiyu laughed, and after buying this pair of gold-plated masks, he heard the small vendor say, "Mr. Xiaolang, why don't you also buy this pair of gold-plated masks that match?"

The small peddler took out another equally exquisite gilt mask, which was different in shape from the one in Zhao Baiyu's hand, but when put together, it could become a brand new gilt mask.

"It turns out that there are such exquisite creations in the busy streets."

The exclamation came from behind, and the dark red figure suddenly passed by Zhao Baiyu, took the gilt mask from the small vendor, caught a glimpse of Zhao Baiyu from the corner of his eye, and immediately turned around: "Goro?"

It's Zhao Yuzheng.

Dressed in a dark red dress, wearing a jade crown on her head, holding a peach blossom in her arms, hairpin flowers on her temples, she looks like a good girl, with a beautiful complexion.

Dark clothes and soap boots are not popular nowadays, they are only worn on the day of the coronation ceremony, and Zhao Baiyu and Zhao Yuzheng are wearing dark clothes together, facing each other face to face, it is obviously a clever fate, they chose the same auspicious day for the coronation ceremony.

Zhao Baiyu looked behind Zhao Yuzheng, the two sons of the Zhao family and the present prince followed Zhao Yuzheng in casual clothes, and they all saw the dark clothes on Zhao Baiyu's body, Zhao Changfeng and Zhao Sanlang were obviously taken aback, especially Zhao Sanlang It seems that he just realized that Zhao Baiyu and Zhao Yuzheng are the same age.

He was crowned today, but he didn't have any congratulations or gifts, so he was at a loss.

Zhao Yuzheng hesitated: "Wulang, today is your coronation ceremony?"

Zhao Baiyu looked calm: "I am the same age as you."

Zhao Yuzheng stammered: "Oh, oh." After thinking for a moment, he took a piece of mutton jade from his waist and stuffed it into Zhao Baiyu's hand: "It's a crowning gift for Wulang." The golden mask came to him and said, "My mask is very similar to the mask in your hand, Goro... Is it a pair? Goro wants to buy both?"

He hesitated for a moment, and put the gold-plated mask together in Zhao Baiyu's palm: "Sorry, I didn't find out just now... Return it to you."

The prince's gaze was always on Zhao Yuzheng's face, so he could clearly see the love and reluctance in Zhao Yuzheng's eyes. He also knew that Zhao Yuzheng was more accommodating to Zhao Baiyu now. Ashamed of Zhao Baiyu.

But this is what they did in private and has nothing to do with Zhao Yuzheng.

What's more, Zhao Yuzheng has been weak and sick since he was born, probably because of Princess Changping.

The so-called repayment of mother's debt by son should mean that Zhao Baiyu owed a lot.

When Zhao Yuzheng was a child, Yuxue was cute, but when he grew up, he was proud and arrogant. He was the most dazzling sunrise in the capital. How could he be so cautious?

The prince couldn't help feeling distressed, and said harshly: "There are a pair of masks, and Zhao Qing is only one face, so why bother to take what others like?"

Zhao Baiyu pinched the two masks, and walked over with a smile that was not a smile: "Why is your highness free to visit the capital at night today? But the job is too idle, and no one below is looking for trouble, so it's rare for you to be quiet?"

Thinking of the troubles that Zhao Baiyu caused that made him hurt, the prince couldn't help the liver convulsions, his body tensed up, his throat became dry, his temples tingled, and he felt like retching.

Zhao Yuzheng reminded: "Wulang, don't be disrespectful to the prince."

Zhao Baiyu: "I can't afford to press this high hat on top of my head with your lips. It's just a daily greeting in the officialdom. If Your Highness thinks that I offend you, I will go to the East Palace to plead guilty in another day?"

"Need not."

The crown prince had a headache and declined. He felt that Zhao Baiyu could really do such a high-profile drama of pleading guilty. Maybe all the civil and military officials in the court would know his stinginess. Of course, the most important thing is that the crown prince and Lu Zhiyuan would know that he accompanied Zhao Yuzheng privately. Kyoto at night.

The Zhao family was very close to the East Palace, and Zhao Yuzheng often went in and out of the palace. If the crown prince attended his coronation ceremony openly, no one would suspect his affair, but if he came secretly, the problem would be serious.

Perhaps the princess would not doubt it, but Lu Zhiyuan, who loves her daughter eagerly, might not.

"Gu Weifu makes private visits, understands the sentiments of the people, and enjoys the joy with the people. Today, there is no difference between a monarch and a minister. It is not offensive to say anything wrong, but it is not about official business."

Zhao Changfeng said at this time: "Silang has not yet obtained the honor, and he was crowned today. He was very happy and forgot about it. Just now, there were too many people who blocked their sight and didn't see you. There are many reasons to take away the gilded mask before you. It was not intentional. "

Pausing for a moment, looking at the deep clothes on Zhao Baiyu's body, he said, "It's also a wonderful thing, I didn't expect you to choose to be crowned today... You didn't come to the family temple to say goodbye, where did you go?"

Zhao Sanlang followed and said impatiently: "Yes, yes, we didn't even see you."

It has become their habit to defend Zhao Yuzheng first.

"You, you were crowned today, why didn't you tell us? If you did, mother would definitely agree with you to enter the family temple, and father, father should also agree. Ah yes, I didn't bring any valuable gifts with me, only this red The note is the inscription on the gold list that I asked for from Baohua Temple early in the morning..."

He fell silent while talking, obviously this talisman was for Zhao Yuzheng.

"Well, I'll prepare the gift later?"

Zhao Sanlang didn't know why he felt guilty, his voice was as quiet as a mosquito, and gradually became silent, with helplessness written all over his face.

Zhao Yuzheng came out to smooth things over: "I don't know the official rules, but I made a joke. I hope Wulang is magnanimous. Don't blame me."

"If you don't speak, I'm afraid no one will think that Xiao Lang blamed you."

A cold and slightly hoarse voice suddenly broke in, and there was a night wind blowing, blowing the petals of apricot blossoms not far away, first a stream of elegant and fragrant sandalwood lingered in the nose, and then the crane cloak blown by the wind At the corner of the eye, Zhao Yuzheng's line of sight climbed up along the dark blue crane cloak, his pupils dilated imperceptibly, and the amazed color slowly bloomed in his eyes, which he alone knew but no one else noticed.

Just now Zhao Baiyu was standing in a bright place, and Huo Jingtang happened to be hiding in a dim place, and Huo Jingtang was good at hiding his breath, and the scent of apricot blossoms covered the Buddha's fragrance on his body. People can find out.

Until he opened his mouth suddenly, as if tearing apart the light, he suddenly attracted everyone's attention.

Huo Jingtang stood beside Zhao Baiyu, both of them had the same indifferent expression, their glances at Zhao Yuzheng seemed to sweep over weak ants, powerful and contemptuous.

Zhao Yuzheng felt unwilling for a moment.

Unwillingness welled up in his heart, and he was overwhelmed by the joy that followed. The person in front of him was the figure in Shanhelou outside the city, the Tanghe iron cavalry he saw in Yangzhou Mansion. After returning to Beijing, he mobilized many contacts to seek help However, the Tanghe iron cavalry is too confidential, and the relevant information has been smothered to death, so that I still don't know the identity of that person after four or five months after returning.

Who would have expected to meet the person he had always wanted to see at this time.

On the day of his coronation, when he was an adult, he suddenly appeared, like a bubble like a shadow, like electricity like dew.

Zhao Yuzheng heard a heartbeat: "You..."

He was interrupted by the prince before he could speak: "Huo Jingtang, Shiro has no other intentions, so don't speculate. If you have been with Shiro before, you will know that he has a pure heart and never has the intention of harming others."

Huo Jingtang...?

Zhao Changfeng and Zhao Sanlang bowed their hands to Huo Jingtang, and blocked Zhao Yuzheng at the same time: "I've seen Xiaojun Wang."

Zhao Yuzheng froze on the spot, his pupils constricted, his lips lost their color, and he raised his eyes to see that the person he had been dreaming about since he was about ten years old came suddenly on the most important day of his life, but his expression was cold, and he didn't even bother to look at him.

What frightened him more than the indifferent attitude of the man in the dream was that he had a fate with this person that could only be cultivated in a hundred lifetimes. They had been married before, and they were the closest and closest people to each other in the world.

But his relatives cut off this relationship, and he treated it like a shoestring, like a cataclysm, knowing that Zhao Baiyu was innocent, but when he learned that the other party was stiffened by Li Daitao, he still hesitated, pretending to be deaf and dumb, pretending to be ignorant .

He delivered that fate to Zhao Baiyu himself?

"Even if you can't see me, you should be able to see the stall owner talking to others. As long as you are not blind, you can tell that the stall owner took out another mask for Xiao Lang. If it's not Xiao Lang, just a random person , Zhao Yuzheng ran out and stabbed him. This is a matter of personal morality, what does it have to do with official rules?"

Huo Jingtang's tone was cold and hit the nail on the head, embarrassing the prince and others.

Prince: "Today, Yu Shilang is very special. He is very happy, and it is inevitable that he is in a bad mood. Will the King of Lin'an not even bother with such a trivial matter?"

Huo Jingtang: "This king will."

Prince: "——!" He was speechless for a while, his mouth opened and closed, intermittently: "Why are you a big man... Shiro didn't do it on purpose, and he said too modestly, this must be forgiving and forgiving..."

As he talked, he was also confused. He wanted to seek justice for Shiro, but why did he feel that it was "Shiro's fault"?

Huo Jingtang: "Forget it, since I was able to provoke this king in the busy market that day without asking why, I'm used to domineering, so it's not as good as my little man knows how to behave."

Zhao Changfeng's face darkened when he heard the words, and Zhao Sanlang was both embarrassed and sullen.

Huo Jingtang raised the corners of his lips, stared at them, his voice was drawn out and slow, and he uttered clearly: "After all, there are thousands of people who love you, and there are people who take the blame, and even the troubles you make can make innocent people take the blame. The affair is really normal, so this king is partial to my Xiaolang, presumably the crown prince can also understand that I speak out of nowhere. Okay, you go shopping."

After saying that, he took Zhao Baiyu's hand and said: "Xiao Lang, let's go to the other side of the bridge. There is a family there. I heard that the spring water in the house is very sweet. It can remove bad luck. Let's ask for a pot."

The prince stared at Huo Jingtang's back with a gloomy face. The other party didn't give him face since he was a child. He was not the crown prince at that time, but now he is the crown prince of Dajing. Face, really...

Sin deserves death!

"By the way," Huo Jingtang suddenly turned his head and said, "The crown prince has been busy with court affairs recently and neglected martial arts. Tomorrow I will go to the palace to invite the emperor to allow the crown prince to take a few days off to practice in the school grounds."

Campus——

The prince gasped, and suddenly remembered that a few months ago, Huo Jingtang suddenly went crazy, and said in front of his father that he was weak and lacked in martial arts, so he asked him to spare time to go to the school to practice for an hour or two, Huo Jingtang While putting on a good face for him, he beat him.

The memory came back, the prince felt that his bones were hurting, the muscles in his cheeks twitched uncontrollably, and a little bit of regret rose in his heart.

"Wait." No one thought that Zhao Yuzheng would speak, he looked straight at the past: "You are Huo Jingtang, the king of the small county of Lin'an? Rumor has it that Huo Jingtang has a violent temperament, looks like a yaksha, is unsightly, and he is afraid to go out. Wearing a mask to hide your ugliness—how can you be the king of Lin'an County?"

Zhao Baiyu: "The rumors are not to be trusted. A three-year-old child understands the truth, but Mr. Zhao Xiaolang doesn't understand? What's more, how can my husband have rumors of being ugly? You should ask yourself."

Staring at Zhao Yuzheng's face, Zhao Baiyu murmured in his heart, feeling that the way he looked at Huo Jingtang was not quite right, as if he was hiding a dark fire, but it was not resentment or hatred, more like sorrow and joy?

Zhao Baiyu shivered, and pulled Huo Jingtang to leave quickly, thinking that Zhao Yuzheng in the original book is still in a state of ignorance, and he only accepted the prince in the later stage, but it seems that there is no obvious love.

According to the little nurse, the author sent out almost no arrows in order to reflect Zhao Yuzheng's charisma.

...The ill-informed patient Zhao didn't understand the relationship between the 'single arrow' and the charmer attribute, so he didn't go any further.

Thinking about it now, the problem is not small.

"No way."

Zhao Baiyu murmured, and looked at Huo Jingtang beside him in disbelief. When he didn't speak, he really looked like a startled bird, but that was the protagonist with an official match!

But the original book did not say that Zhao Yuzheng had an arrow against Huo Jingtang...

It is also possible that Huo Jingtang in the original novel did not recover his appearance?

——Having said that, his memory of the original plot seems to be getting more and more blurred. Of course, it may be that the little nurse added a lot of personal thoughts when dictating.

So after cheating in the scientific examination, what is the plot of the original novel?Did it change a lot of the plot?With Huo Jingtang protecting him, would he still die?

How did he die?

Huo Jingtang: "Why do you look at me like that?"

Zhao Baiyu came back to his senses, blinked his eyes and said, "Suddenly found that you are very popular."

Huo Jingtang squeezed Zhao Baiyu's hand and said, "Xiao Lang also has a lot of admiration."

Zhao Baiyu laughed, liking Huo Jingtang and always complimenting him as usual, which made him gradually suspect that his mentality had returned to the cheerful and optimistic past life because no matter how hard he tried in the past 20 years, he only got prejudice and disgust.

"Where is the well water you mentioned that can exorcise evil spirits?"

"I lied to them."

……

The figures of the two disappeared into the crowd and disappeared into the lights. Zhao Yuzheng lowered his eyes, lost the mood to continue to visit the capital, and whispered to the two elder brothers and the prince to return home.

The prince was quite regretful, and his mood of accompanying Zhao Yuzheng to the capital was completely ruined, so he didn't say much, and escorted Zhao Yuzheng all the way back to the prime minister's mansion.

Zhao Changfeng and Zhao Sanlang silently sent Zhao Yuzheng back to his courtyard. For the first time, they did not comfort the downcast Zhao Yuzheng. They simply explained to the servants and left.

Parallel to the dimly lit corridor, Zhao Sanlang was particularly depressed.

"Brother, I seem to have realized that Zhao Baiyu and Shiro are the same age today, so today is also his coronation ceremony, but he can't even enter the family temple." Zhao Sanlang was a little lost.

"It's because he doesn't want to enter the family temple."

Zhao Sanlang said disapprovingly: "Brother, why are you still targeting Wulang? Every time you talk about Wulang, you will try to push the problem to Wulang, as if it is all his fault. But he did nothing wrong. Deny it, he is still the son of the Zhao family, and he should enter the family temple."

Suddenly his tone lost, "Silang's coronation ceremony was congratulated by civil and military officials from all over the court. Gifts piled up like mountains, and even the emperor, queen mother and empress sent condolences. On the other hand, Goro... Logically speaking, his status should also be the proud son of heaven. .”

Zhao Changfeng's eyes were sharp: "Zhao Yuqing, take care of your mind! Your sympathy for Zhao Baiyu is to approve of Princess Changping and the fact that she framed our mother and us back then! Do you know that your quarrel with the enemy's son is against your mother and when she was born? The betrayal of Shiro who almost died? Why do you celebrate when you are a bystander? Why do you think the Empress Dowager cares about Shiro?"

"I..." Zhao Sanlang was speechless, dejected.

When Zhao Changfeng left, Zhao Sanlang murmured: "But Zhao Baiyu is right. It's not the princess and father who are wrong—oh!" Shut up quickly, and said twice: "As a child, how can you judge elders indiscriminately? "

Walking to the atrium of the garden, Zhao Sanlang couldn't help complaining: "Brother is the most stubborn..."

"Who is stubborn?"

A soft female voice sounded, Zhao Sanlang turned around in fright, saw that it was Mrs. Xie, he patted his heart and said: "Mother, you scared me."

"If you don't do bad things, how can you be afraid of being intimidated by others?" Xie said, "Are you having trouble with Da Lang again?"

"No." Zhao Sanlang had the awkwardness of not wanting brothers' conflicts to be shown in front of his parents at his age, so he immediately asked: "It's so late, why don't mother sleep?"

Mrs. Xie: "You brothers have not returned, how can mother sleep peacefully?"

Knowing that Mrs. Xie was mainly worried about Shiro, Zhao Sanlang walked towards Zhao Yuzheng's courtyard gate while chatting with Mrs. Xie's arm.

Xie Shi: "Okay, you don't have to accompany me, you can go back to your room by yourself."

Zhao Sanlang smiled happily: "I know." Suddenly thinking of Zhao Baiyu, he hesitated and whispered again and again: "Mother, today is also Wulang's coronation ceremony."

Mrs. Xie smiled, and responded in a flat tone: "March [-]rd is an auspicious day, and it is common for many people to choose this day as the crowning day."

Seeing Xie's calm expression, Zhao Sanlang hesitantly went back to his courtyard after saying "oh".

Mrs. Xie brought only one nanny, and came to Zhao Yuzheng's courtyard quietly, and saw the servants being driven out of the house again.

In particular, the nanny of the grandma Zhao Yuzheng was full of distress. When she saw Mrs. Xie coming, she hurriedly blessed her and said anxiously: "Madam, you are here! Shiro came back from outside with a gloomy expression, and drove us all out, and hid in the house by himself. Li didn't say a word, and didn't take any medicine, I'm so anxious to death, mother!"

Xie is very experienced in this: "You all stay outside."

After speaking, he went into the house and sat on the head of the bed in the inner room.

"go out!"

Mrs. Xie looked at Zhao Yuzheng who wrapped herself in the quilt, and asked softly, "Mother, too?"

Zhao Yuzheng lifted the quilt abruptly and sat up, looked at Mrs. Xie, and suddenly drooped his shoulders. Mrs. Xie saw that his eyes were red and his nose was also a little red, so he couldn't help frowning, and his expression turned cold: "But you are getting angry outside?"

Zhao Yuzheng shook his head, pursed his lips tightly and remained silent.

Xie asked tentatively, "Did you meet Wulang outside?"

Zhao Yuzheng acquiesced.

Mrs. Xie understood: "An unpleasantness happened? What is it? Shiro tell mother, okay?"

Zhao Yuzheng gritted his teeth and clenched his fists: "Mom, I did something wrong, what should I do if I regret it now?"

Xie: "Is it important to you? Can you let it go? If you can't let it go, can you try your best to make it up? After you make it up, will your heart feel better?"

Zhao Yuzheng's forehead lightly touched Mrs. Xie's warm palm, he was about to cry, and murmured in a low voice: "I can't let him go, I've been looking for him for a long time. If I try my best to get him back, my heart will feel much better."

Mrs. Xie doesn't sound right, is this a human?Does Shiro have someone in mind?

"What if you don't fix it? Just let it go?"

"I will die of heartache and regret."

Mrs. Xie's movements of caressing Zhao Yuzheng froze, feeling a little unhappy, and her brows furrowed unconsciously. Shiro was weak and sick since he was a child, and he often wandered on the edge of life and death. He always showed a positive and open-minded attitude. 'die'?

But a person is worth his obsession?

Xie was persuasive and persuasive: "Can you tell mother what you did wrong? Mother will help you analyze and analyze, and maybe she can give you some ideas to save you."

Zhao Yuzheng completely relaxed in Mrs. Xie's gentle embrace, gave him trust, and said absentmindedly: "I have been looking for him, but I didn't know he was the same person as him. It turned out that he had such a deep fate with me. We were originally Marriage can be concluded..."

Xie's expression froze completely, her eyes widened to the maximum, she stared fixedly at the void, and unconsciously clasped the hand holding Zhao Yuzheng's shoulder with all her might, until she heard Zhao Yuzheng's painful cry before she came back to her senses, and quickly recovered her gentle expression. expression.

"Mother?" Zhao Yuzheng asked worriedly, "What's wrong with you?"

Mrs. Xie brushed Zhao Yuzheng's hair from the sideburns behind his ears, and looked at him carefully: "Mother's Shiro has grown up, and he is also a handsome young man who knows the taste of love and sorrow. It's just that my mother loves her, and Shiro has grown up. The wings are about to grow, and my mother is full of emotions—but the Zhao family's family training is that people should be virtuous and upright, and the family style is upright, you are the most beloved child of your parents, don't insult your upright virtues, and do things that want to win love."

Zhao Yuzheng's face turned pale, his eyes were a little dodgy, he didn't dare to look at Mrs. Xie, his fingers unconsciously picked the quilt, hesitation flashed across his face: "I, I understand."

After receiving the guarantee, Mrs. Xie couldn't laugh, she simply said a few words to appease Zhao Yuzheng after drinking the medicine, stared at him sleeping peacefully, and then left silently.

The footsteps were hurried, and the nanny who was carrying the lantern had to trot to keep up, "Ma'am, slow down, watch your steps—"

Mrs. Xie stopped suddenly, staggered and almost fell, but fortunately, the nanny rushed over with quick eyes and hands so that Mrs. Xie would not fall directly to the ground.

Mammy was frightened for a while, she stabilized Mrs. Xie and sat down on the stone bench next to her. She took a light with the lantern and saw that Mrs. Xie's eyes were straightened, his face was hideously ugly, and there was an inexplicable look of sadness and terror, she couldn't help but hurriedly Pat chest.

"Madam... madam? What's the matter with you?"

Mrs. Xie came back to her senses and stared straight at the nanny, her gaze was particularly creepy.

The nanny trembled in fear: "Ma'am, are you, are you in a nightmare?"

Xie moved his eyes slowly, staring at the fingertips in a daze: "...it shouldn't be like this."

The child who came out of her womb was persecuted by the paranoid person like her. He almost died and was riddled with illnesses. For 20 years, the nightmare has been with him like a shadow. How could the suffering child knowingly commit a crime and want to seize it with a knife? like?How paranoid?

It shouldn't be.

How can this be so?

The nanny was in a hurry: "Why shouldn't it be like this? What's wrong with you, madam? Don't scare me! I, I'll call the doctor right away!"

"I'm fine." When Mrs. Xie glanced over, Mammy froze.

Xie's face returned to rosy, and he stared at the night calmly, and suddenly asked: "What do you think Shiro looks like a master?"

"Is it your appearance?" Mammy didn't know how the topic got here, but she still answered seriously: "The nose, eyebrows and lips are all the same as the master's, they all have a hanging bile nose, sword eyebrows, and lips, and they are also as handsome and beautiful as the master— -Well."

She was embarrassed, and realized that 'Zong Li' could not describe a man.

Mrs. Xie: "Mama also thinks Shiro is too delicate?"

To say that he is delicate is an understatement, and I don't know how long he is. Shiro has the brightest appearance. When he wears a bright red robe, he is often mistaken for a pretty girl dressed as a man.

It's just that when Xie and Zhao Boyong were young, they were also the most beautiful people in Beijing, while Zhao Silang's appearance was biased towards Zhao Boyong, but the blue came out of the blue and was better than the blue.

Mammy: "When Shiro gets married and starts a business, he might be able to get rid of his childishness by being more prudent."

Xie: "What do you think Shiro's eyes look like?"

"This...isn't it the same phoenix eyes as the master? Sword eyebrows and phoenix eyes, handsome and unparalleled."

"Is it phoenix eyes? Is it the same?"

Why did Mammy exclude the eyes when she asked about the similarities just now?

Mammy was very worried: "Ma'am, what happened to you?"

Mrs. Xie shook her head: "Perhaps I was thinking too much, I was thinking too much." After being dazed for a while, he suddenly emphasized: "I must be thinking too much."

--------------------

The author has something to say:

Xie couldn't afford to guess the answer.

PS: Do you have better words for Xiaoyu?

It can be said, and I will adopt it if I think it can.

Because I think Mu Gui is not very good for Xiaoyu. I hope he will have no regrets in this life and be safe every year. I hope it is a word with this meaning.

Sleepless is the word I set when I started the article. The key point is not to have any regrets later, it fits Xiaoyu's life.

But the word Wumian itself doesn't feel very good, so I was hesitant when writing it, because it was decided a long time ago, and it still hasn't been changed in the end.

So if you have a better word, you can say it, and I will take a look.
