Chu Chenglai's purpose was very simple. Straight to the point, he said that he would form an alliance and deal with Chu Yuan together.
Duan Baiyue laughed: "The prince is a straightforward person."
"How?" Chu Cheng asked.
Duan Baiyue looked at him for a long time, then nodded slightly: "Okay."
Chu Cheng was not surprised by this. After all, the so-called "war" in the past few days is obviously because the other party is deliberately delaying time, and it should be waiting for him to speak first.
After he left, Duan Nian said, "Can you write a letter to inform the Emperor Chu of this?"
Duan Baiyue shook his head: "This king will go in person."
Duan Nian: "…"
go again
In the middle of the night, Huoyun Lion was led out of the stable and snorted in dissatisfaction. Duan Baiyue rubbed its mane, turned on his horse and left the camp. Being so impatient, first of all, it was because he wanted to meet his sweetheart, and secondly, he was somewhat worried—I don't know what trouble Li Que would make.
The previous Jin Shu had already had a big head, but he didn't expect that a mountain was still a mountain high. This one in Tianying Pavilion was really a headache.
In the early morning, the morning sun was shining, and Ye Jin was standing in front of the stall selling peanut soup, looking at the boss eagerly.
"Little Prince." The boss greeted with a smile, "Would you like a bowl of sugar water?"
Ye Jin shook his head: "Boss, just do your business, don't worry about me."
"...Hey." The boss was puzzled. Seeing that he had been staring at his head, he couldn't help but raised his hand and touched it.
Could it be that he wants to cure his baldness.
Ye Jin was thinking in his heart, when would he bring his brother to eat a bowl of sweet peanut soup, and then take a look at the boss.
"Xiao Jin." Shen Qianfeng wondered, "What are you doing standing here?"
Ye Jin said, "Think of something."
"No one is standing in the middle of the city thinking about things, and they are not afraid of being scratched by the carriages." Shen Qianfeng led him back, "I talked to the emperor before, it's been so long."
Ye Jin said, "Talk about prostitutes."
Shen Qianfeng paused when he heard the words, and then he couldn't help laughing and crying: "We will meet in the future, but you are not allowed to say that about the King of Southwest China."
"Look, as soon as I say prostitutes, you know it's him." Ye Jin sighed, he is famous, and the whole Chu country knows it.
Shen Qianfeng: "..."
Passing by a small pharmacy, Ye Jin said, "Wait a minute, I'll buy some herbs."
"The emperor is not feeling well?" Shen Qianfeng asked.
"No." Ye Jin patted the front of his shirt, "I'm not feeling well."
Shen Qianfeng frowned when he heard the words: "Where is it uncomfortable, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"I've been dreaming a lot these past two days." Ye Jin said, "I always thought something was going to happen."
"Worried about the war?" Shen Qianfeng guessed.
I worry about what the war will do, and Da Chu will win. Ye Jin cleared his throat and said solemnly, "I'm worried about Duan Baiyue."
Shen Qianfeng had a headache: "Why is it the King of Southwest again."
Nobody but him! Ye Jin snorted proudly, and Shi Shiran went to the small medicine shop alone, bought some calming medicines, and took three packets of Ziyoucao along the way—it can be made to spread all over the sky without raising any medicine!
Shen Qianfeng didn't know whether to cry or laugh. After bringing the person home, he finally coaxed him to eat half a bowl of rice, then dropped his chopsticks and ran away, saying that he was going to the backyard to sit and relax. It's just that I never expected that after a few laps in the small garden of the post house, a person would fall from the sky.
…
…
After seeing who was coming, Ye Jin took a few steps back, and the thunder struck.
Shen Qianfeng's head throbbed faintly.
"Cough cough." Duan Baiyue said, "You two, it's such a coincidence."
Ye Jin slowly raised his head and looked upstairs.
Standing at the window, Chu Yuan was also a little... stunned.
Why at this time
Ye Jin calmed down a bit, rolled up his sleeves, and rushed upstairs angrily.
How can this be.
No worries at all.
"Hey!" Duan Baiyue wanted to follow, but was stopped by Shen Qianfeng.
After a cup of tea, Chu Yuan still explained calmly: "The King of Southwest is here really just to discuss the war."
Why don't you go to Lord Wen to discuss it! Ye Jin looked at his brother with a very sad look. No wonder he seldom came out of the door these days. It turned out that there was someone hiding in the house!
The prince of a country hides a bald man in his bedroom, and it is not ashamed if he goes out, he is not ashamed, he is not ashamed.
Chu Yuan was exhausted.
In the hospital, Duan Baiyue and Shen Qianfeng turned to look at each other, their eyes were quite a bit... sympathetic to each other.
Of course, for the sake of the impending war, Ye Jin didn't castrate anyone, but he still hired the owner of peanut soup to walk back and forth on the street three or four times, showing his brother what a middle bald man is.
"Stay far away from now on." Ye Jin urged.
Chu Yuan said: "Okay, okay."
Back in the room, Duan Baiyue was drinking tea at the table.
Chu Yuan said: "When do you plan to return to Muyang City?"
"Of course I'll go back with you." Duan Baiyue handed him a cup of tea, "Since Chu Heng wants to join me to deal with you, naturally there won't be a big battle at this moment. Duan Nian and the lieutenant are stationed in the army, it's enough. ."
"Li Que is still living at the inn in the city." Chu Yuan said, "When do you plan to see her?"
Duan Baiyue first observed his expression, and then asked, "What do you think?"
Chu Yuan said lightly: "What do you have to do with me?"
Duan Baiyue screamed bitterly in her heart, and held his hand to her mouth: "Are you still angry?"
Chu Yuan asked back, "Why should I be angry?"
"Because I did something wrong, I shouldn't have lost Zilong Jue, I shouldn't make a fake to coax you, and I shouldn't hide from you when I'm poisoned." Duan Baiyue was extremely knowledgeable, "If you scold me, beat me up. I'll do it too, and if it doesn't help, I'll go out to the street and buy a few washboards to wash your clothes for you."
Chu Yuan laughed out loud, raised his hand and slapped him.
Duan Baiyue also smiled and squatted in front of him: "Aren't you angry?"
Chu Yuan pouted: "Qi."
"Just be mad at me, don't be mad at yourself." Duan Baiyue approached him, "Also, I've made a mistake, don't make me sleep on the floor tonight."
Chu Yuan was calm and leisurely: "Until you figure out what happened between Li Que and Zi Longjue, don't even think about getting through it!"
It was night, and Shen Qianfeng forcibly carried Ye Jin back to the room.
"Let me take another look." Ye Jin held his chest with both hands and refused to kiss him, thinking about running, struggling desperately, and even wanting to bite.
Shen Qianfeng looked amused, one hand restrained him easily, the other hand squeezed his chin, and put a pill into his thumb.
"Hmm." Ye Jin was caught off guard, the sweetness melted away, and he stared at him with wide eyes.
Shen Qianfeng patted his profile: "Be obedient."
The enthusiasm rose in his lower abdomen in an instant, Ye Jin was pressed against the wall by him, his clothes were messy and he wanted to lift the table, but he didn't even have the strength to kick someone. After struggling three times, instead of pushing him away, he pushed himself. He was out of breath, so he said softly and angrily, "Give me an antidote."
Shen Qianfeng lowered his head and blocked all the fried hairs back.
In the other room, it was much quieter.
Chu Yuan turned his back to the door, as if he had fallen asleep. Duan Baiyue carefully lifted the quilt and squeezed beside him.
It was naturally impossible for Chu Yuan not to wake up.
Duan Baiyue hugged him and said in a hoarse voice, "It's cold on the ground."
Chu Yuan closed his eyes again and raised the corner of his mouth.
Duan Baiyue dropped a kiss in his hair, but she didn't feel sleepy at all.
In the second half of the night, Chu Yuan suddenly asked, "What are you thinking about?"
Duan Baiyue was stunned for a while, turned his body around, and apologetically said: "Did I wake you up?"
"Tell me about it." Chu Yuan stood up, resting his chin on his chest, and said lazily, "What do you think about every time you can't sleep?"
"I think about everything, I miss you the most." Duan Baiyue covered him with the quilt, "I was thinking of you just now."
Chu Yuan smiled and stretched out his hand to squeeze his cheek.
"No matter what happens in the future, I will tell you." Duan Baiyue looked at him, "Never hide it again, okay?"
"That's nice." Chu Yuan withdrew his hand, "I haven't made it clear until now, why did he become so obsessed with practice."
Duan Baiyue was speechless.
Chu Yuan did not intend to change the subject.
Duan Baiyue said: "People who practice martial arts, if they practice a little carelessly, they will be in danger at any time."
Chu Yuan said: "Four joys."
Duan Baiyue covered his mouth - Sixi is easy to say, don't invite the little ancestor next to Sixi again.
Chu Yuan swept away his hand coldly, sat up under the quilt, and turned his back to him.
Duan Baiyue had a headache and compromised: "It was because of the last time that I left the customs early in order to pacify the chaos in Suizhou, regardless of the master's dissuasion, that my life was hanging by a thread."
Chu Yuan didn't speak, and didn't turn around.
Duan Baiyue hugged him from behind: "Even Master never thought that the consequences would be so serious, but it has already passed. If you want to hear it, I will say it, but don't take it to heart."
The house is quiet.
After a long time, Chu Yuan struggled to get rid of him, pulled the pillow on one side, turned around and slapped the man in the face.
Duan Baiyue complained bitterly in her heart, and sat honestly, only to see that he was about to fall off the bed, and then she reached out and dragged it.
Chu Yuan threw away the pillow, his chest heaved violently, he looked at him with red eyes, his lips trembled slightly.
"It's just an accident." Duan Baiyue took him into his arms and kissed him, "It's all over, it's just a stumbling block set by God, the first twenty or thirty years are bitter, and the next few decades are sweet, right?
Chu Yuan clutched his shirt tightly and buried his face in his chest.
The hot wetness came, Duan Baiyue was helpless, and caressed his hand on his back: "I'm fine now, don't cry."
Chu Yuan still remembered the contents of the letter he wrote to him many years ago.
To Suizhou, to split mountains, to Chu Jiang's life.
The reply came on time, with only one word - "good".
After three months, Chu Jiang accidentally fell off a cliff while hunting, and Sui Zhou returned to him, and the matter was never mentioned again. However, he never thought that he would go so far as to become a demon and hang his life by a thread, suffering from the golden silkworm thread for ten years.
"Little fool." Duan Baiyue raised his cheeks, wiped away tears with his thumb, and whispered, "When my eyes are swollen tomorrow morning and Ye Guzhu sees me, I should really be bald."
Chu Yuan said: "Don't do anything in the future, I'll take care of you."
Duan Baiyue nodded cheerfully: "Okay, don't worry, it has to be now. In the future, you will come back to Dali with me, and we will go to a small village by the Erhai Sea to live in. When the time comes, the cooking and laundry will be yours. I will do nothing. Lie down and eat every day, okay?"
Chu Yuan said calmly, "Dreaming."
"Look, I'm not willing to let you support you." Duan Baiyue sighed regretfully, "People all say that the Southwest Wang Langzi has ambitions, and this blame can be wronged. When I'm old, I want to be served by someone outside the staff, and that's all. It may not be possible.”
Chu Yuan was finally amused by him.
"Ken laughed?" Duan Baiyue held his cheek, bowed his head and kissed, "Since I'm going to live here for a while, do you want to go out tomorrow to relax? I'll take you to San Po Po Mountain."
"Where is that?" Chu Yuan asked.
"A lonely mountain outside Fuquan City, Muyang City is fighting, and the people in the nearby town dare not go out. The mountain should be very quiet." Duan Baiyue said, "Will you go?"
Chu Yuan nodded: "Go."
