Rong Xuan

On this day, when the news came that the Marquis of Jingling was leaving for the capital, the king of Dachao Kingdom was picking up the vegetables he had grown in the vegetable garden in the small garden.

The news seemed a bit sudden, so that His Majesty the Emperor held a small hoe in his hand and froze on the spot for a moment while maintaining the motion of weeding.

"Your Majesty?" Hua Jinzhong, who was waiting at Longbian, reminded at the right time, "It's almost time, and everyone in Shaowen Hall has arrived."

"...It's not urgent, it's not a bad thing to ask those guys to wait," His Majesty the Emperor came back to his senses, and continued to hoe the young grass that had just sprouted, facing the loess and back to the sky.

After another moment, His Majesty suddenly sighed with sullen head: "Buddhas say that one flower is one world, and one leaf is one bodhi. I think about it carefully, and these herbs in the vegetable garden are also right. "

"It's tender and tender green, it looks like the well-cultivated grass in the imperial garden," His Majesty the Emperor raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and finally walked out from among the pleasingly growing vegetables with a hoe in his hand. Hua Jinzhong took the handkerchief to wipe his sweat, and said kindly, "It's a pity that they grow in the wrong place, so no matter how cute and innocent they are, they must never be kept..."

Hua Jinzhong didn't answer, just smiled lightly from beginning to end, waited for the emperor to wash his hands with half understanding, and then methodically arranged for Yujia to change his robes in the Tonghe apse not far away, and was going to meet the cabinet ministers in Shaowen Hall Those ministers.

In the Shaowen Palace, almost all the Usha Zhupaos who could be ranked in the cabinet came. After waiting for His Majesty the Emperor for a long time, the ministers and workers could not help but start whispering in twos and threes.

As the chief minister of the cabinet who is under one person and above ten thousand people, Xun Run is just standing there silently with his hands folded in the sleeves of his wide official robe, his eyes half closed, like an old monk in meditation. Here I am.

Even if some colleagues wanted to chat with the old man, they were frightened by his appearance that he looked like he was taking a nap and drowsiness. Sleep is extremely difficult.

Don't say that everyone is waiting for the emperor in the Shaowen Hall right now, even if it is the morning court in the Chengtian Hall, if Xun Shoufu sneaks off to take a nap, it must not be disturbed, and must not be disturbed.

Fortunately, before Xun Run really stood there and fell asleep, the slightly shrill voice of the small yellow gate of Shaowen Hall came in from outside in time: "The emperor, come!"

The originally low but chaotic voices in the hall suddenly disappeared, and all the ministers and workers stood up very quickly according to their positions, one by one folded their hands and lowered their eyes, waiting for the holy driver to come in.

Xun Run, who had been standing still since he came in, slowly opened his eyes. At this moment, he was standing at the head of the line, with his arms stretched out and his sleeves folded—what should come, will come soon.

……

The vicissitudes in the court would probably not affect Sima Xuan for a while, and at this moment, Jing Linghou's carriage had only left Yanyang for a few days.

Because Cao Hui was so seasick, Sima Xuan abandoned the route he had come from and took the whole journey northward to return to Beijing. Coincidentally, Jinglinghou's carriage had just stopped outside the Chixi official post, and happened to meet him. Zhao Qingjia, the princess of Yongjia who came from nowhere.

"Tsk, what a coincidence." In front of the gate of the official post inn in Chixi, Princess Yongjia, who was bathed in the bloody sunset, narrowed her eyes leisurely. She looked Sima Xuan up and down, and said with a half-smile: "Look. The water and soil in Lai Yanyang really nourish people, and Junhou's complexion still looks pretty good."

It's just that the aura around this cold-faced guy is still a bit colder, and the expression on his face is still the same as before - neither life nor death, no desires, no desires.

"Where did you come from?" Sima Xuan looked at Cao Hui being escorted into the post by a group of maids and guards, then looked away, turned his back to the dazzling sunset in the western sky, tilted his head to look at Princess Yongjia, and lowered his eyes. He said in a hoarse voice, "The situation has become more and more unstable since the beginning of the new year. I don't think there will be any big moves over there in a short time. You want to go back to Chang'an with me?"

"Who wants to go back with you?" Princess Yongjia folded her arms and glanced at Sima Xuan, and finally took the lead to walk towards the inn. of……"

"Hey Zhao Qingjia!" Sima Xuan scratched his brows, and then stepped forward to chase after him, "Will the sub-wolf dog in Wuwen Garden have puppies this spring? Huan'er..."

……

Most of the people on the road were relatively tired, but when they returned to Chixi, Sima Xuan, who had been riding a horse for a whole day, was a little sleepy. At night, everyone else had already fallen asleep. She got up in the dark, and gently pushed the room away. The window facing south to the street.

The sky is full of stars outside, and the light is as soft as water.

Looking up, as far as the eye can see, there are three stars hanging above the mid-heaven, juxtaposed and outlining the bright light, and they are brightly displayed in the night sky.

Sima Xuan stared at the stars for a while - it is said that the hunters rely on them to find the Lubu trap in the deep mountains.

After blowing the cold wind for a while, Sima Xuan finally felt a little better. She was about to reach out to close the window, but she accidentally saw a dozen men in black approaching from the ridge diagonally opposite.

……

Breaking ground on Tai Sui's head usually has no good end, especially when the Tai Sui's heart is still not comfortable, there is no accident - this group of men in black have not waited to touch the room of Princess Yongjia Nearby, they were all beaten down by Sima Xuan's men like jujubes from a jujube tree before they even fought against the hidden guards of Princess Yongjia.

There was quite a commotion now—even Chixi's parents and officials from the yamen, such as Tongpan, got the news and hurried over.

Looking at the ghosts and monsters who were eating the royal salary, and the gang of assassins in black, Princess Yongjia couldn't help but sneered.

"Why did you suddenly laugh?" Sima Xuan, who was standing with his hands behind his back, raised his eyebrows, and looked at Princess Yongjia puzzledly, "Is there something wrong?"

"It's not right anywhere—" Princess Yongjia replied to Sima Xuan, then nodded slightly, the smile on her face changed from sarcasm to bare/naked/naked disdain, she raised her chin slightly towards the group of men in black, He signaled, "Suiwu."

"Yes." The guard Han Suiwu understood, walked up to the man in black kneeling on the ground in a few steps, and stretched out his hand to tear open the skirt of a man in black.

At the same time when everyone saw the wolf head tattoo protruding from the assassin's chest, the man in black suddenly broke free from the rope on his body, and rushed towards Princess Yongjia like a monkey.

The result can be imagined - the man was slashed in the neck by Shiliuyi who was silently guarding the side, and at the same time he was stabbed through the lungs by Yuan Cunyu - but the man in black took the opportunity to take the opportunity from Han Suiwu The dagger drawn from his waist stabbed Han Suiwu himself.

Now that someone has reported to the government, even if there are high-ranking people like Sima Xuan and Zhao Qingjia, they will have to hand over all the men in black to the local government office for trial. As for the dead man in black—— The gods testified that the man accidentally lost his life after attempting to kill him.

A funny assassination came to an end in a panic amidst the noise of bluffing. Princess Yongjia chatted with Sima Xuan for a while, then went to Cao Hui's room next door and said a few words with Cao Hui. Go back to your room at the other end of the hallway.

It's just that when passing by outside a certain room, Princess Yongjia accidentally saw and heard something that shouldn't be seen or heard.

In the middle of the night, it was very late when Princess Yongjia really fell asleep. Her body was extremely tired and her thoughts were so chaotic that after she fell asleep, she had a dream that seemed real and fake—that was when she came back to sleep. Those contents that I accidentally saw in the room:

"Why are you always so careless?" Yuan Cunyu carefully bandaged the wound cut by the dagger, with a rather displeased tone.

Han Suiwu still had the same smile on his face, he didn't seem to care about anything, he retorted instinctively: "Isn't it all right, it's just a scratch on the arm, it will be fine in a few days."

Hearing these words of ignorance, even Princess Yongjia felt a little angry, not to mention Yuan Cun was about to hit Han Suiwu when he raised his hand in anger.

But that angry slap was not willing to fall on Han Suiwu's face after all, Yuan Cunyu sighed softly, and hugged this risky guy into his arms helplessly and distressedly, "This time you hide quickly , I just scratched my arm, if you are still careless in the future, what if... what do you want me to do?!"

……

The next day, the whole team was collected and set off on the road. Sima Xuan bid farewell to Princess Yongjia in front of the gate of the inn. After riding the horse forward not far, the prince who had hardly slept all night got into the carriage.

"I, I just want to come in and lean against the carriage for a while, and I'll go down after a while..." The man in brocade robe leaned against the door after entering the carriage, looking somewhat haggard.

Cao Hui didn't make a sound, just sat quietly in the innermost part of the carriage, probably because he was really tired and sleepy, the person leaning in the corner seemed to have fallen asleep within less than half a stick of incense coming in.

The carriage regulations of Chaopin Marquis are comparable to those of Wangjue. The four black horses with equal heads are driving the carriage steadily, without much bumps. What's more, Jinglinghou's carriage is covered with a layer of soft Rongqin blanket. , even everything that should be used in the car is also available.

Incense was burning in the small censer, which was supplemented by calmness and concentration, and the beast's mouth was exhaling incense mist. After a long time, Cao Hui took out a blanket from behind, leaned over, and tiptoedly put it on Sima Xuan's bed. body.

"...From now on, don't be nice to me, let alone respond to me in the slightest," the man leaning his head on the carriage wall suddenly said, his hoarse voice suppressed some unspeakable emotions, and his words became She became dumb, "Otherwise I'm afraid I can't help it, and I won't let you go in the end... Hui'er."

The mulberry strips have no leaves and smoke, and the flute pipe welcomes the front of the Longshui Temple.The rich families watched singing and dancing in several places, still afraid of spring Yin swallowing orchestral strings.

Cao Hui sat back to the original place, rubbed her hands, and was silent again. Finally, she looked down at her palms and said, "Even if it's a meeting with a gentleman and an enemy, it can also be regarded as an acquaintance. The relationship between you and me Enmity is a problem between you and me. As for other things, I can't let you carry everything for me after all. You protect me, and I absolutely can't watch you mediate alone... "

It turned out that in Cao Hui's eyes, he and her were just an acquaintance. Sima Xuan's hand under the blanket tightly clenched the hem of the clothes on his knees. At this moment, her loathing for him really reached a certain extreme—— Sima Xuan, Sima Xuan, you are a woman who lives as a man and will be decapitated at some point, how dare you have such thoughts of transgressing human relations towards Cao Hui, who is also a woman!It’s all right for you to have a rough life, why should you drag others into the purgatory abyss with you, and become a filthy thing that will never be seen in your life?

Sima Xuan, you...why do you...

The eyelids moved slightly, and the long and narrow eyes slowly opened. There was some kind of extreme disdain and indifference for the rules and etiquette hidden deep in the young man's deep, dark eyes. With a hoarse voice, she asked Cao Hui gently: "Waiting for you Vengeance is rewarded, apart from enemies and acquaintances, can you and I...can be friends?" There is always a little hope in my heart that I don't want to give up, looking forward to an unimaginable future.

In that future, there is not only herself, but also the person in her heart.

"I just want the truth. If I'm wrong, I won't complain even if I'm ripped apart. But if I'm wrong, I just want them to apologize and give me back to the Cao family." The innocence and loyalty of the world!" Sima Xuan heard Cao Hui say: "I should have gone with my parents and elder brothers at that time. I was lucky enough to have the kindness of the lord and marquis. I have survived all the way so far, and I am very grateful-I did not do the assassin thing last night. As far as I can think of, I thought I would have more time to plan, but it seems that those people are already in a hurry, along the way... Junhou should be more careful."

Sima Xuan closed his eyes again, and pulled the blanket that had slid down to his body, grinning and muttering: "Why do you think about so many things in your little head all day, and your hair turns white."

Cao Hui: "..." Who can tell her that Sima Xuan in front of her is really Sima Xuan?

The author has something to say:

Princess Yongjia: I saw my personal guard Chuan Ji with my own eyes, and I have to act as if I don’t know what to do. I’m a bit awkward, what should I do, wait online, I’m very anxious...
