The country is not as pretty as the beauty

There were many people guarding the gate of Liu's house, Xue Li couldn't get in, so he had to climb over the wall to get in late at night, since he was a child, he studied both civil and martial arts, and he was very good at both, so a mere high wall naturally couldn't stop him.

Xue Li is a frequent visitor to the Liu Manor. He used to come here to work as a clerk when the family was in the most difficult time. After all, the Liu Mansion is a big family, and there are people on patrol at night, but Xue Li knows these things well.

Soon he found Liu Huan's room, which was an independent attic. When Liu Huan was born, he was deeply loved by the deceased head grandfather of Liu's family. Later, he became smart, so he built Ziyue Pavilion for Liu Huan.

The courtyard outside the pavilion is full of flowers and plants, willow rings only love orchids, high-quality things, as well as the tenacity of plum blossoms, the elegance of bamboo, the deep winter is the season of plum blossoms, and the cold plum blossoms alone. Xue Li directly turned to Ziyue Pavilion , When I came down, I looked at the lighted room in the attic, and one accidentally fell down and landed on the plum tree. Xue Li ignored the pain, looked at the many branches broken by himself, and became worried. Willow Huan loves this thing so much that even if a tree dies, he will be sad for a long time. Now that half of the tree has been destroyed by himself, I don't know how sad Liu Huan will be.

After wiping off the dirt on his face and body, Xue Li went to the pavilion and stood outside the door for a long time.

The sound of wind and grass, and the sound of human breathing, Liu Huan is a sensitive person, aware of movement, and vigilant.

"Who!"

A clear female voice came from inside the door, questioning and doubting, Xue Li, who was frightened by this sentence, fell to the ground.

"it's me!"

The familiar voice made Liu Huan feel better after being depressed all day, and hurriedly got up to open the door.

Not long after the words were spoken, the two doors creaked open, and the woman inside the door was very nice.

The cold wind from the north is blowing from outside the door. The light-colored skirt is inlaid with silver silk edges, and the water-colored gauze belt is slender at the waist. long skirt.

Facing Xue Li, the smile that he never had that day was smiling slightly at this time, his eyes were as clear as streams under ice, not stained with a trace of worldly dirt, his eyelashes were long and thick, and they were slightly raised like cattail fans, and he reached out to touch Xue Li. Xue Li's nose was much taller than his own, a pair of catkins were slender and fair, the elegant orchids embroidered on the cuffs set off the ten fingers that looked like shavings, the pink lips were shining with a crystal color, and they curved slightly Nice curve, Ruyu's earlobe with light blue tassels falling, the tassels are light, dancing with the wind outside the attic, Xue Li was stunned, his temples were blowing.

Liu Huan frowned secretly, looking at the scratches on her face and hands, not deep or shallow, but there were dark bloodstains.

"What's wrong with you?" The soft words brought some worry

Xue Li reacted immediately with a silly smile, and rubbed his head: "Your house is not allowed to enter through the front door, and you are not allowed to come out, so I had to climb over the wall and accidentally broke your plum, you won't blame me, will you?" ?”

Xue Li spoke cautiously, while Liu Huan shook his head: "You really didn't look carefully when you came here, you wanted to come in through the plum forest, and you even scratched yourself, so why don't people feel distressed when they look at it!"

Xue Li still smiled: "Be careful next time!"

Liu Huan covered her mouth and smiled, but she didn't even ask him to sit in, but turned around and entered the room by herself.

"Is there a next time?"

Xue Li understood the meaning of the words, and there would indeed be no next time, because soon he would be able to enter through the main entrance of the Liu Mansion in an open and aboveboard manner.

Xue Li also hurriedly followed in. The wind outside was very strong, a bit biting, and Xue Li's body was a little stiff from the cold.

Liu Huan took some wound medicine from the cabinet and wanted to clean Xue Li's wound, but he dodged subconsciously.

"Why, will I still eat you?" Liu Huan's kindness was rejected, feeling uncomfortable.

"Small injuries are fine!" He quickly calmed down, and his tone became a little colder.

"Since the marriage letter came out, you have been estranged from me, why?"

Xue Li originally wanted to talk about this matter: "Why did you go to Dongdu privately, a girl's house!"

Liu Huan stared straight at him, put the medicine on the table, and said unhappily: "What? My father scolded me for this, even you want to say that I am not a woman."

Seeing that Liu Huan was a little angry, Xue Li hurried up to say something nice: "How could it be, it's just that you really don't have to do this for me."

Liu Huan rolled her eyes: "What am I doing this for?"

"I know that you are doing it for me, but how can I, Xue Lihe De, make you like this? You also know the situation of my Xue family. If you marry me, you will definitely suffer a lot of stares!"

"But I don't care. Why should I care about other people's opinions? I just know that I am marrying my sweetheart, and I just like it!"

Xue Li frowned, Liu Huan married him, he didn't want to accept it, but he couldn't, because there were too many reasons.

"I see. Although I, Xue Li, am stupid, I can make up for my stupidity with hard work. I will definitely stand out and live up to you."

"I don't need you to stand out, what I value is your personality and character!"

Indeed, Liu Huan only judges people by their character, and still life is pure, let alone human beings, that's why she likes Xue Li.

"I know, I just want to prove to them that you marrying me, Xue Li, will not be worse than the so-called Zongshi's children, let alone the Pei family, and will make your family look at me, Xue Li."

Only then did Liu Huan relax her stern face.

"There is one more thing, I never told you since I was a child, but I swear, this is the only thing I hide from you!" Xue Li said to Liu Huan seriously with two fingers in the depths.

"What's the matter?" Liu Huan pretended to be curious.

"I'll tell you on the wedding day, okay?"

Liu Huan nodded, she would not force Xue Li to ask something she didn't want to say.

But she still couldn't help saying: "The original intention of me marrying you is that I am willing and I like it. Other people's opinions are other people's. The important thing is that I fulfill my wish and follow my own heart. , to marry the sons of princes and nobles, to be admired and envied by others, and to be depressed all day long, do you think that is what I want? Or, is it more important what other people think or what is in my heart?"

Xue Li was originally the one who came to persuade him this evening, but Liu Huan's words made Xue Li very ashamed: "Xue Li was too stupid since he was a child, and he didn't think of this, it's really wrong!"

Liu Huan smiled and shook her head: "You are not stupid, but you are too kind and loyal. You always think of others, but you are not afraid of losing yourself, and you are not willing to compete with others. You know how to advance and retreat."

Xue Li smiled. He was indeed famous for his chivalry and kindness in his hometown, but among the lower class commoners, the Xue family was completely eliminated from the big clans and reduced to farming for a living.

The night was getting darker and colder, Liu Huan looked at the biting wind blowing outside the door.

"Don't go back tonight, there is a bath in the back hall, you know!"

Xue Li was a little frightened: "No, even though we are going to get married next month, if this gets out, it will bring you a bad reputation!"

"Why do you always think so much? No one will come in this yard. Although it is a ban, no one is allowed to enter without my permission."

"That won't work, it's already late, and my mother will be worried." Xue Li wanted to stay, but he had his own reasons for not staying.

Da Su governed the country with benevolence and filial piety, and Xue Li also respected this. He was very filial since he was a child, and he always followed his mother's advice.

Knowing that Xue Li was a filial son, Liu Huan couldn't say anything, so she brought him a thick dress from the house.

"Are you going to climb out again?"

Xue Li nodded

"I'll take it to you!"

It was cold outside, Xue Li didn't want her to go out, but he knew that this girl was stubborn.

Went downstairs: "Does your injury still hurt?"

Liu Huan helped to deal with the scratches on his face and hands earlier, the cut on his hand was a bit deep, even though it hurt Xue Li, he didn't make a sound.

It was snowing in December, and small snowflakes were falling. The two of them were in the plum grove in the yard. In December, when the plum blossoms first bloomed, many plum blossoms had already bloomed on the branches.

"I came just in time, Hanmei in the Snow!"

Liu Huan likes this kind of scenery, likes winter: "It seems that God is also very satisfied with us!"

The two smiled at each other, and when they walked to the corner, Liu Huan saw the broken plum tree, a piece of budding plums underground, and Xue Li frowned a little bit embarrassed.

"You won't blame me for breaking your plum?"

Liu Huan shook her head and didn't continue to watch: "Your martial arts are always good, you must have been distracted!"

Xue Li smiled, and embraced the woman in front of him: "Wait for me, come back and marry you!"

"Mother, I'm back!"

In Xue's small house, Xue's mother was still awake: "Have you gone to see her?"

"Yes!" Xue Li lowered his head

"Mother knows it's selfish to do this, to you, to her!"

"No, I know that my mother is doing it for me, for the good of the Xue family."

"You figure it out?"

"Ok!"

"What about her?"

"She doesn't know yet. I think that after we get married, I, Xue Li, will owe her no worse than any man in the world!"

"If you have such a heart, I think she should be satisfied. She will enter the Xue family in the future, and she will be a member of the Xue family. This rule should be followed. If you can't tell the eldest lady again, you have to explain it to her. !"

"Mother, why do you mention this?" Xue Li murmured.

"Li'er, you are kind by nature, mother is afraid that you will suffer!"

"My mother has seen it all these years. Huan'er's temperament is not like other ladies. You know her about my mother."

"It's not that you let her go everywhere!"

Xue Li couldn't argue with his mother anymore, so Dao'an went back to sleep.

The first month is approaching, the weather in Hedong Road is very cold, Dongdu is also very cold, and the whole north is very cold, the snow has not stopped for three days.

Li Jing's troops in the north did not stop like everyone else, but rushed all the way to Turkic in the cold.

In the Dongdu Imperial Palace, charcoal basins were set up in the inhabited palaces. Tian Wuhen didn't sleep tonight, and he didn't go to the Central Palace. Instead, he was on the tower facing east, and there was Li Chunfeng.

The author has something to say: Good evening!
