One of Ouyang Shaogong's colleagues, Chang'an

"Husband, it's getting late, let's go back?"

After sitting for a long time, the woman gently wrapped her arms around her, as if feeling a little cold, she raised her head and asked inquiringly.

"Do you feel cold?"

He leaned over to help her up slowly, with shame in his eyes, "I'm really sorry, I ignored you, Xu'er, you go back first, remember to take the main road of Chang'an Avenue, I will come later."

"Husband—what's the matter?"

There was worry in Xu'er's eyes, "The night is as cold as water, be careful if you catch the wind and cold."

"It's okay, I just want to be alone for a while, and I will come to you soon."

He comforted with a smile, but there was undeniable persistence in his dark pupils.The woman lowered her eyes and stopped dissuading her. She deeply knew that her husband was gentle and calm on the outside, but he had an unusual persistence and firmness in his heart. Even she couldn't turn around in the slightest.

"Then - I'm leaving first, you remember to come back earlier."

After being silent for a while, she raised her head and seriously exhorted, with a sense of reluctance in her water-colored almond eyes, he stroked the top of her hair to comfort her, she suddenly felt an inexplicable sadness in her heart, and stretched out her arms to hug him With her waist slightly tilted, she slowly kissed his right cheek.

"Changqin, I—like you—don't worry me."

There was a layer of mist in her eyes, and the bottom of her pupils was deeply affectionate, and her hands holding him were tightened, as if she was afraid that he would turn into a breeze and be blown away.

Prince Changqin sighed, and a complex expression flashed in his star pupils.In the first few lives, he may not have been touched by the truth, but he has become numb after experiencing several betrayals.Mr. Pianpian is as rich as a jade, so he can win a lot of love by catering to him at will, but he understands that everything is just a dream, and he refuses to give emotion easily.

Xu'er is somewhat different from them, she can always convey affectionate messages in her words, making people feel that if she doesn't treat her like she loves him, it would be unbearable and sinful; He made those intimate and coquettish actions, so proactively that sometimes even Changqin himself could not help but blush. Fortunately, under the cover of night, he doubted his own judgment from time to time.

Will she really be the one I have been waiting for, the one-hearted person who will never betray and abandon, and will never leave each other.

Although what she liked was her real husband "Changqin", through a period of secret observation, he had mastered that person's habits in detail, so he could imitate him perfectly, even better than blue, after all, majestic purple The personality charm of Xianjun Miao Le in Weidian is unmatched by mortals, he has easily made Xu'er "love" him even more deeply.

But if it really comes to the day when the soul returns and sees the "husband" who has changed his face and voice, it seems that his soul has been transplanted into another body. In a completely strange place, he may not be so handsome, and he may be in a hurry. Instead of choosing an ugly and wretched body, "it's not fresh", or even "received this kindness", she saw a familiar smile on such a face, and such a hunched body pretending to hug her, she would He won't be scared out of his wits, or nauseated enough to vomit, after all, the original body of "Changqin" is the most perfect appearance and figure that he has been lucky enough to choose since he crossed the soul.After confirming that his soul was hidden in the torso, Taoist priests and mages were asked to trap him in the formation, tie him to the stake and burn him alive—just like he had experienced countless times before, but this time he will be killed because A little bit of his belief, a little bit of loss of defense made him even more painful. . .

That's it, that's it.

It's already miserable enough, why make yourself more miserable.

He slowly let go of his hand, and gently pushed the woman in his arms away, without kissing her side face back.

The slender figure of the woman gradually disappeared into the night.The Pinghu Lake is long, and the towers are lost in the fog.

"It seems that this star is not from last night, for whom will the wind and dew stand at midnight."

A low-pitched whisper sounded not far behind him, like the clear sound of bamboo dew drops.You can tell that she is a pretty girl just by listening to the tone, but she pretends to be old-fashioned with a bit of sadness, so she has a different kind of humor.

Prince Changqin turned around and saw the moon shining like water, and under the crabapple tree stood a wonderful man, Fang was Cardamom Nianhua, who was still small in stature, his eyebrows and eyes were not fully opened, but his appearance had already been sculpted into jade. Exquisite, it shows that she will be a peerless beauty in the future, especially those eyes that are as bright as stars, intelligent and agile, clear and deep, like a series of endless riddles, making people ponder and guess, which seems a little inconsistent with her young age.

He couldn't help but smile, this little girl is quite interesting.

"Young girl, how do you know about Fengyue at such a young age?"

He stepped forward, his snow clothes fluttering in the wind, and his steps were like stepping on waves.

"I guess I secretly read a lot of books I shouldn't have read."

"I'm not that young."

The girl pursed her lips slightly, as if she was not convinced, "I may have seen more worlds than you."

"Oh, really."

He slowly knelt down to be at the same height as her, and his lips raised more and more warm and gentle like a spring breeze, "You look like a twelve or thirteen-year-old full of big words, and you don't look like a local person in your clothes. Could it be that you ran away from home behind your parents' backs? Did you just live in a foreign land?"

"Shh--"

She raised her eyebrows and seemed to be a little anxious, and reached out to cover his lips, her pink fingertips carried the delicate fragrance of tung flowers, which was very unique, "You know it yourself, why say it so loudly - if someone hears it You'll think I'm a bully—"

There was a hint of shyness in her delicate voice, her pretty face was slightly flushed, like a peach blossom dipped in water, and she was quite different from just now.After all, he is still a child, no matter how sophisticated he pretends to be, he always lacks a sense of security in his heart when he is alone, and his inner anxiety is still easily exposed under the temptation of his words.

disturbed.

His pupils trembled slightly, isn't he himself -- no matter how peaceful his appearance is, his heart is never peaceful --

Seeing her terrified appearance, he felt a little pity and love for her.

"Okay, I don't say it."

He comforted her softly, stroking her forehead hair, "Why are you still outside at this late hour, it's dangerous for a girl to be alone at home."

"I saw that the river lanterns here are very beautiful, so I couldn't help but look at them for a while longer."

Seeing that he is amiable, she couldn't help but relax a lot of her guard, showing the innocent expression she should have, "Although there are many rivers in my hometown, there are no such exquisite things--I saw the lamp you gave to sister Xu'er, well done It's so beautiful, much more unique than theirs--I'm very envious."

"So you've been here for a long time."

He frowned slightly, but with his ability, he didn't notice it at all. Although he was immersed in deep thoughts and didn't have time to take care of it, the girl's ability to hold her voice and hold her breath - was definitely not an ordinary person.

"Do you know that do not see evil, do not listen to evil?"

He hid the darkness in his eyes, and quickly changed the subject.

"I didn't intend to come here, I didn't intend to peep."

She raised her eyebrows, her expression was righteous and awe-inspiring, "Besides, the two of you on the street are so -- Qingqing, me, me -- why don't you consider other people's feelings."

He was taken aback for a moment, and then found it funny, he didn't expect her to say such words, so sharp-tongued--he was actually unable to answer.

However, Prince Changqin has his own way.

"What you said may be reasonable, but it's a pity that Changqin never considers other people's feelings."

He smiled slyly, leaned over suddenly, picked him up horizontally with all his strength, and walked quickly to the river bank.

The sense of crisis brought about by her body's sudden volley made her pale, "Hey, hey, what are you doing, stop, stop!"

The young man in white stood still by the river, leaning half of his body into the water, precariously on the verge of falling.

"How, do you still dare to play tricks?"

"Don't dare, don't dare to—"

She waved her hands hastily, seeing how he could do anything at any time, "Please--put me down--"

Seeing her put away her paws, he didn't care anymore, took a step back and put her down slowly.

As soon as her feet landed on the ground, she quickly pulled back and stood a few steps away from him, but the mud by the river was slippery, her feet staggered, and she almost fell into the water.

With a serious look on his face, he hurriedly stretched out his hand to support her body, and led her away from the shore.

"Are you so afraid of me? You almost fell into the water just now."

His eyebrows were slightly condensed, and he said in a deep voice, with an imperceptible coldness hidden in his voice.

"I—I just—"

She lowered her eyes, not understanding why he suddenly became a bit cruel, Ru Rui's eyelashes trembled uncomfortably, she pursed her lips and muttered, "I'm afraid of water—so—I was really scared just now—"

He was taken aback for a moment, and the gloomy mood just now dissipated, he only asked in surprise: "How come—then why do you like He Deng?"

"Just watching from a distance-"

She stirred the corner of her clothes, "My hometown is by the sea. When I was a child, I used to go boating alone. Then one day, a storm came suddenly on the calm sea—I fell into the sea. If Uncle Qing hadn't arrived in time— I--"

Her eyes were full of shock, as if she had returned to the front line of life and death at that time, with lingering fears in her heart, like the dew on a crabapple under the moon, timid and weak.

His heart tightened quietly, and he subconsciously stretched out his hand to wrap her in his arms, and moved a little further away from the shore.

"I'm sorry, in the future - I will never offend the girl like this again."

He said solemnly, and the solemnity, concern, and apologetic meaning made her feel a little embarrassed.

"It's okay. It's my fault. I said something wrong first. It's good that my brother doesn't blame me."

She gently held his sleeve with sincere eyes, "Brother, it's very late, it's not safe for you to let my sister go back alone - can you go to her first?"

I didn't expect that a child like her would have such a meticulous and thoughtful mind.

"She is already an adult, don't worry about it."

He said lightly, "If I go to find her and leave you here alone, can I rest assured?"

"---"

She was at a loss for words for a moment, unable to see the expression in his deep eyes clearly.

"Since you like looking at the lights, it's okay for me to watch with you for a while. It's already late at night, so I don't care how much later it is."

He didn't look at her anymore, but he shook the hem of his robe and sat cross-legged on the floor, as if practicing Zen.
