Xuancheng smiled faintly.
Because his eyes fell on a small blue flower not far away, the flower was extraordinarily blue under the sun's rays, like the sky at noon, and faintly bursts of golden light.
According to legend, in ancient Germany, a knight and his lover were walking on the banks of the Danube. His lover found a small and beautiful blue flower by the water, and he was so in love with it that he asked the handsome knight to pick it for her. The knight went to pick flowers for his beloved lover, and when he handed the flowers to his lover, he accidentally stepped into the quagmire. The heavy armor made him unable to move. Sucking, he flung the flowers away as he drifted toward death, "Don't forget me, dear."
Xuancheng knew that this flower grew on the edge of the desert, he looked at Fu Jian, thought for a long time, and said, "Don't forget me."
Fu Jian touched his head with one hand, "You are my younger brother, how could I forget you."
"Whoever I am, don't forget me."
He said solemnly.
So, Fu Jian stared into his eyes and swore, "No matter who you are, I will never forget you."
This oath is like a curse, destined to be impossible to realize after all.
Xuancheng whispered sadly, "Go back and let him go, he is innocent."
Fu Jian let go of his hand and didn't speak.
Xuancheng came to grab his wrist and did not let go, clamping tightly, "You know, I believe you understand, he is innocent."
Fu Jian pulled it a few times but didn't pull it off, so he let him grab him. He was silent for a long time, neither sighing nor speaking.
"I'm for you. There are some things you can't see clearly but I can see clearly, and some things you don't know but you know clearly."
It is true that Xuancheng is not from that era, he knows what happened, he knows whether Murong Chong should stay or not.
But Fu Jian is not a person who disregards right and wrong, he is an emperor, and he has a degree in his heart.
"Let's go, let's go to Liangguo."
This is the rejection, Xuancheng's heart is a little cold, but he is not lost yet.
The moment he turned around, he heard Fu Jian whisper, "Forget-me-not, right?"
"What?" Xuancheng didn't understand.
Fu Jian laughed loudly, "Let's go, no one will forget anyone after walking out of this desert."
————————
The Liang country is remote, on the border of the northwest desert, in today's Qinghai, Gansu.
At this time, Fu Jian took Xuancheng to travel. Fu Jian said that he would go to Zhang Tianxi's mansion. Xuancheng thought, Zhang Tianxi is now the king of this Liang country. It is to examine the meaning of subordinates.
Xuancheng stopped him, "No."
Fu Jian looked at him, didn't say anything, but raised his chin, just beckoning him to explain the reason.
Xuancheng thought about it in a muffled voice, and then said, "Zhang Tianxi's claim to be a minister is true, but people's hearts have been unpredictable since ancient times, and the purpose of our trip is not Liangguo."
"You don't want to see Zhang Tianxi?"
Xuancheng Road, "We will always see you."
Fu Jian smiled mysteriously, "Well, we won't see him right now."
Not seeing Zhang Tianxi does not mean that they will not enter the territory of Liangguo. Fu Jian and Xuancheng entered Guzang City that night, but they had no money, and accommodation became a big problem. At this time, Xuancheng suddenly thought that Fu Jian would not enter the territory of Liangguo during the day. What Jian said about going to see Zhang Tianxi might just be to ask for a place to live, but he was thinking too much.
He really thought too much, what Fu Jian wanted to ask for when he went to see Zhang Tianxi was not as simple as a place to live.
It's just that Xuancheng has already disturbed him, so how can he bother Zhang Tianxi again.
That night, the two stayed overnight at a farmhouse on the outskirts of Guzang.
Nothing happened in Xuancheng, Fu Jian didn't complain, but enjoyed it.
This farmer also had good intentions, they lighted a fire to cook and served, and vacated an empty room, but the two of them were still squeezed into several rooms. Xuancheng always felt awkward, and there was always a feeling of being dependent on each other day and night. Feeling, it's not the first time he has.
The next day they went into the city, although Guzang is the capital of the Liang Kingdom, it is no better than Chang'an or Yecheng, it is always poorer and weaker, and the people's customs are simple and pure.
They walked all the way, but there was no private fight among the people, let alone any greedy merchants who resorted to fraud. Xuancheng found it incredible that Zhang Tianxi was a good master.
"The people are harmonious, the merchants are righteous, and Liangguo is a paradise."
But Fu Jian seemed to see right through him at this time, and said, "It's not that the people don't fight, but they have no personal enmity. It's not that the merchants don't commit crimes, but they have nowhere to rape them. This is a sign that Liang is poor and weak."
"Poverty and weakness can't be regarded as a weak and weak country." Xuancheng was not convinced by someone's arrogance.
Xuancheng knows that at this time, the Five Hu and Sixteen Kingdoms are fighting and annexing, relying on their military power. Only when the military strength is strong can they destroy other small countries and become the overlord for a while. Only Fu Jian's former Qin Dynasty could unify the world.
But Liangguo is different. It was founded by the Han people, and it relies on the Jinguo in the south.
