"In the future, I'll take you there." Wu Du thought about it and said to Duan Ling, "Go to those places you want to go but haven't been to yet, I promise you, even if you become... I will... Take you there, let's sneak out to see the sea, see the snow, see the mountains and lakes, and come back when we've had enough."
Said that Bi Wudu looked at Duan Ling, his face flushed, he took another sip of tea, avoiding Duan Ling's gaze, with a smile in his eyes. Duan Ling felt a strange feeling in his heart, which was different from every time he faced him before. Although it was a winter night, it seemed as if a peach tree was spreading its branches and leaves in his heart, burning and blooming.
"Okay." Duan Ling's heart jumped violently, and for some reason, he remembered the moment when Wu Du was in Tongguan, wearing a night suit and taking him over the eaves and walking up the wall, making him lean on his chest; When Wu Du was wearing armor and full of blood, he held him in his arms.
A flood of emotion surged in his heart, as if after his father left, everything that was lost finally came back to him, on the person opposite the case. Duan Ling wanted to express that feeling, but he didn't know how to describe it, let alone how to export it.
"I remember..." Duan Ling said.
Wu Du looked at Duan Ling, but Duan Ling's mind was completely chaotic, only Wu Du was in his eyes, and he said inexplicably, "Remember..."
What did I just say? Duan Ling's mind was blank.
Wu Du: "Remember what?"
"Remember..." Duan Ling was at a loss and was very embarrassed. Looking at the snowflakes falling outside, he said, "I remember that the Master taught a poem or a poem. I remember it, and it sounds very good."
"What poem?" Wu Du asked.
Duan Ling was about to recite the poem to Wu Du, when he suddenly remembered the poem, his face flushed, and only one image flashed in his mind—that night at Tongguan, the two were dressed in single clothes, and Wu Du pressed himself on the bed, He laughed and said, "I really want to do you, but it's no use calling."
And Wu Du, who was sitting in front of him, was wearing a self-cultivating military uniform, and his hand was shaking a little while holding the cup.
"I forgot... I forgot." Duan Ling's heart was beating wildly, and many memories poured into his heart, but he didn't know what happened to him. He still remembered that poem—
- There are trees in the mountains, and there are branches in the trees.
When he first met Wu Du, he detoxified and dispensed medicine for him; in Mufu, he asked him the opportunity to study for a scientific examination; in Qinling, he put on armor and fought bloody battles for him; on the city wall of Tongguan, he dragged his wounded body and came regardless of danger save yourself.
The master once said that this is "love", and Duan Ling suddenly felt another kind of love that was different from his father and his classmates... He was confused, not knowing what to say, and hurriedly picked up the teacup , took a sip of tea.
When he raised his eyes again, he looked at Wu Du, both of them were hesitant to say anything. Duan Ling stared at Wu Du in a daze. For a while, his thoughts were mixed up. , accidentally knocked over the teacup, knocked it over on the case, and the tea was flowing towards Duan Ling.
Wu Du was busy looking for a cloth to wipe the table, and Duan Ling said, "It's okay."
Wu Du asked Duan Ling to move slightly towards the window and said, "Call someone to clean it."
"Little Er!" Wu Du shouted loudly.
The sound of footsteps came from downstairs, Duan Ling calmed down and sat blankly. He wanted to raise his eyes to look at Wu Du, but he was embarrassed. In the past, he only felt that Wu Du was handsome. In the eyes, it is more and more beautiful.
With the sound of footsteps, a figure went up to the second floor, but it was not a junior, and entered the next door.
Xiao Er came up and asked, "Master, what do you want to eat?"
"I won't eat it," replied a voice.
When Duan Ling heard this voice, he was struck by lightning instantly, and Wu Du's expression was full of surprise.
Lang Junxia!
Why did Lang Junxia come here!
Lang Junxia was in the compartment on the other side of the screen behind Wu Du. Duan Ling's mind was spinning in an instant, but Wu Du stretched out a hand, pressed it on the back of Duan Ling's hand, and shook his head, indicating that there is no need to be afraid, he is there.
"Let's have a bowl of your golden signature wonton and make a cup of Pu'er." Lang Junxia added, "Send it to the next door."
"Today is your birthday." Lang Junxia said behind the screen, "I was busy with errands, so I didn't pay attention to it. Try his ravioli, it's delicious."
Duan Ling didn't answer, and the three of them sat quietly.
It was quiet, and the tea spread along the table, dripping, dripping, dripping, dripping on the felt spread under the wooden table, and staining a small stall.
Wu Du frowned deeply. After a while, Duan Ling said, "I haven't eaten wontons for a long time."
"Are you afraid of poison?" Lang Junxia said behind the screen.
Wu Du took a deep breath, and when he was about to speak, Duan Ling took Wu Du's hand and motioned him not to speak.
At this time, another person went up the stairs to the second floor. The voice came first before the person arrived.
"Take out two more bottles of your wine." Zheng Yan's voice said from downstairs, "Cut some good beef."
Wu Du: "..."
"There is actually a private room upstairs?" said Changliu-jun's voice.
Duan Ling: "..."
Why did they all come at once, Duan Ling could not laugh or cry, Zheng Yan and Chang Liujun went upstairs, when Changliu-jun saw Duan Ling and Wu Du sitting opposite to each other, he immediately said "yo" in surprise, and sat down with Zheng Yan without asking. , entered the compartment where Lang Junxia was.
Duan Ling dipped his finger in some tea, and wrote on the case "What do you mean?" Wu Du shook his head, expressing that he was not sure, and pointed to the outside, meaning that he should go first? Duan Ling shook his head, meaning to stay and listen to what they had to say. He felt that since the four major assassins had arrived tonight, he couldn't say what really happened.
"I'm sorry." Zheng Yan first turned his head, glanced at the two from behind the screen, and said with a smile, "Wu Du, disturbing your Yaxing, there is really no place to stay, so let them come here."
Wu Du replied: "It's okay, just say something."
Zheng Yandao: "Actually, it's nothing important. I've been hungry for a day, so let's fill it up first."
"Wang Shan, you didn't go back to the manor? Where's Muqing?" Lord Changliu also stuck his head out and looked at Duan Ling.
"No." Duan Ling replied, "He is at the Queen's place, so he should be staying for dinner."
The noodles were served and laid out. In addition to two bowls of noodles, Wu Du and Duan Ling also had a bowl of fresh shrimp wontons. There are four-color river fresh on the surface, and a few plum blossoms float on the soup.
"This family's noodle soup is a secret recipe." Zheng Yan said with a smile, "It is made with eel bone, duck crispy bone, hyssop bone, Beihai kelp and the next year's plum blossom, and it is a must with a salted plum. To eat noodles, you have to drink some Qingtian wine to taste it, Wu Du, why don't you have a pot?"
"No." Wu Du replied, "Let's go after eating. If you have something to say, just say it."
Duan Ling didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but since both Changliujun and Zheng Yan were here, Lang Junxia should not trouble himself, so he breathed a sigh of relief, but Wu Du seemed to be a little annoyed, and he just held back and did not attack.
After Xiao Er finished his face, he bowed and walked away, and Zheng Yan ordered again: "If there is no order, there is no need to come up again."
"Want to eat wontons?" Wu Duchao asked Duan Ling.
Duan Ling shook his head, neither of them moved the bowl of wontons. Duan Ling took a sip of the soup, only to feel that the taste was indeed very fresh, and not at all greasy, the noodles were smooth and tendons, clams, shrimp, fish belly and crab meat. Fresh and tender, this noodle restaurant really deserves its arrogant name.
"Specially made an appointment here." Lang Junxia said behind the screen, "There are a few things I would like to ask you guys what you think."
"Someone is absent from the East Palace discussion." Zheng Yan said, "I must have gone to inquire about the news."
"It's true." Lang Junxia said, "I went to the hotel and found something. I can't handle this alone."
All four stopped and listened to Lang Junxia's retelling.
"The envoy of the Yuan people is Hardanbat|Er." Lang Junxia said, "but in fact, the person who has the final say in the envoy is Amugu. The two people's plans are mixed, Hardanbat|Er Zaiming, Amugu In the dark, in addition to celebrating the prince's birthday, he has other intentions."
Zheng Yan replied: "In the evening in the East Palace, I heard from the Minister of Rites that the Yuan people would be retaliated by Liao after the battle of Shangjing, so he gave birth to the heart of alliance with Chen and resisted Liao, and wanted to make a contract with Chen. Chen and Liao have The hatred of Shangzi, the hatred of Shangjing between Chen and Yuan, the enemies of the three kingdoms, the minister minister and the lords discussed for a long time, but they have not come up with a solution."
"What did your majesty say?" Duan Ling suddenly asked.
"Your Majesty didn't say anything." Zheng Yan replied.
Wu Du said: "Although the first emperor was not killed by Yuan people, he collapsed due to the battle of Shangjing. If the crown prince joins Yuan at this time, I am afraid that His Majesty will not agree."
"That's right." Lang Junxia replied, "But there is no permanent enemy in the world. After the first battle of Shangzi, the hatred of the country and the family was all in the Liao Kingdom. How could it be expected that the former emperor would lead his army back to save Yelu Dashi?"
Lord Changliu asked, "Wuluohoumu, is this what His Highness the Crown Prince meant, or did you mean it?"
"Who means, this is very important?" Zheng Yan said, "Bu Er Chi Jin Batu and His Royal Highness the Prince are old friends from childhood, and it is said that they are friends of An Da. In the past, Qi Chi and Batu father and son were rescued by the late emperor. Send it to Beijing. The Boer Chijin family hopes to repair with Da Chen and stop the war. "
Wu Du looked at Duan Ling, Duan Ling pointed to himself, nodded, frowned, spread his hands, made a "big picture" gesture, and waved his hand gently, Wu Du changed his mind a little, and understood Duan Ling's meaning - An Answer True, but between the two countries, personal relations cannot be mixed to make decisions.
"So what?" Lord Changliu said, "Is this alliance knotted or not?"
"Then we have to ask Brother Wu what he meant." Lang Junxia said, "Today, His Majesty specially summoned you to the imperial study. I don't think it is common to gossip and ask about your family affairs."
Duan Ling pondered for a moment, and Wu Du said: "Your Majesty ordered me something, but it is inconvenient to tell me what it is."
"I'll take care of it for you." Zheng Yan said, "Your Majesty's thoughts are only clear to you at the moment. Let's hear it."
"Everyone is their own master." Wu Du said, "It's not a problem if it's related to the national fortune. It's still about the whereabouts of Zhenshan River. Your Majesty will use Kublai Khan's sword in exchange for Zhenshan River."
Several people were silent for a moment, and Lang Junxia replied: "Then, Your Majesty is unwilling to negotiate an alliance. Lord Changliu, what are the conditions for the Yuanren to negotiate an alliance?"
Changliu-jun pondered for a moment, although everyone is not clear about this matter, but as long as you have the heart to inquire, you can always ask, and it is not a secret, so he explained: "When Yuan Envoy arrived in Jiangzhou three months ago, he I have visited the minister of minister. Hardanbat | Erkou said that Zhenshan River is in Yuan country, but not in Batu's hands. If the two countries wish to form an alliance of brothers, the northern army will withdraw from Jiangjunling and set up a north-south business road. Dachen sells Yecheng, The two cities of Hejian are assigned to Yuan."
"Yecheng is an important town in Saibei." Duan Ling said, "This is impossible."
Lord Changliu replied: "They will also use the 120 li under the Yubi Pass in exchange. In this way, Chen and Yuan exchange territory, and the Yuan people can deal with the Liao State with confidence and gradually encroach on the south. If this covenant is made, the two sides will change cities, the Yuan Kingdom will return to Zhenshan River, the two countries will be in harmony, and they will build a friendship for a hundred years, and never go to war."
Zhenshanhe's whereabouts are still unknown, and it is speculated that it is most likely in the hands of Yuan people.
"Kissing?" Wu Du said, "Whose is it? It's not the Yaohou family again, right? How many daughters does he have to marry?"
Wu Du's words were quite gloating, and Duan Ling knew as soon as he heard it, why Zheng Yan was so worried about this matter, Yao Zheng's identity was the county master, and he didn't want to be married to the north. In case the court really agreed to this matter, Yao Fu would have to clear his tears and say goodbye to his beloved daughter.
