Bai Duan tossed and turned all night and did not fall asleep. When she woke up the next morning, her eyes were red and she looked haggard.

He washed his face with cold water, cheered himself up a little, then changed into the court clothes, went out of the room, and within a few steps, he met Zhou Mo who had also changed into the court clothes.

Zhou Mo obviously hadn't slept all night, and his expression was a little sluggish. Seeing Bai Duan, he smiled as usual, and didn't mention what happened last night, but Bai Duan couldn't escape those eyes that no longer concealed his affection and the deep concern and pity in them.

"Brother, shall we go together?" Zhou Mo walked to Bai Duan's side and asked softly, with a bit of caution in his tone, which made Bai Duan's heart ache.

"...Okay." Bai Duan couldn't bear to refuse, and nodded slightly.

Upon receiving his response, Zhou Mo immediately showed a happy smile of relief, as if a big stone fell from his heart. Seeing his appearance, Bai Duan couldn't help but blame himself more and more - even though he obviously did nothing wrong, he still couldn't see Zhou Mo's appearance of carefully currying favor with the temptation for him.

Last night, Bai Duan lay on the bed thinking a lot, trying to figure out what was going on.

However, every time he thinks about it, he always remembers Zhou Mo's care and love for him. Obviously the harmony of yin and yang is the right way, but Bai Duan can't help but fall under Zhou Mo's deep friendship.

When Bai Duan was an ordinary little carpenter, Zhou Mo paid him close attention and made him his confidant; he taught him to read and write, studied and discussed with him, patiently answered all his questions; Taking care of his life, she almost knows his habits and hobbies better than Bai Duan herself. Even in the most difficult time, even if she cut down on food and clothing, she never wronged Bai Duan; , worried; when he was ambushed by the enemy, Zhou Mo also protected him from the chaotic army, even if he was hit by several arrows, he still blocked him with his flesh and blood...

Such a little bit of getting along has already made Zhou Mo's figure deeply embedded in Bai Duan's heart. As long as he can make Zhou Mo happy, then he will spare no effort.

Bai Duan didn't know if it was love or not, but it was precisely because he cared about Zhou Mo that he was so hesitant and hesitant to move forward.

Although Bai Duan doesn't understand anything, he also knows that men are despised when they fall in love. He doesn't care what the world thinks of him, but he is afraid that Zhou Mo will be involved, and the other party's flawless name will be smeared with a layer of dirt.

But in order to worry about Zhou Mo's reputation, he ignored his intentions. Is this right? Bai Duan couldn't figure out too complicated things, and couldn't find a way to get the best of both worlds, so he hesitated.

Along the way, there was an awkward and quiet atmosphere between the two of them, Bai Duan didn't know how to speak, and Zhou Mo also "dare not" to speak out.

Looking up, all the courtiers clearly felt that the regent's mood today was not good. Although he was still the same as before, he was full of energy and power, especially for the courtiers who were thoroughly investigated. He showed no mercy at all, making the entire court silent, and even the little emperor on the throne couldn't help but turn pale.

The early morning came to an end in such a depressing atmosphere. When the eunuch shouted the word "Retire", everyone in the hall couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Zhou Mo walked slowly from the front seat to Bai Duan's side, and said softly, "Shall we go back together?"

Bai Duan hesitated for a moment, then shook her head slightly: "I want... to walk alone."

Zhou Mo was silent for a while, then nodded lightly: "Okay, then I will wait for you to come back at noon to have dinner together."

Bai Duan moved her lips, but she couldn't bear to continue to refuse after all, so she nodded her head in response.

Only then did Zhou Mo's tense face relax a little bit. He didn't continue to "difficult" Bai Duan, and quickly turned around and left, his back was bleak and lonely, but he was persistent and stubborn.

—At least in the eyes of Bai Duan and even most people.

When Zhou Mo left the hall, all the courtiers moved and followed behind.

It is well known that Bai Duan and Zhou Mo have a close relationship. Seeing the performance of the two at this time, everyone of course understands the reason why the Prince Regent is in a bad mood.

- Does this seem to be an awkward situation? Or did Bai Duan give the Prince Regent a face

All the courtiers talked softly, whispered to each other, peeking secretly at Bai Duan from time to time, while Song Ying and other old acquaintances who had a good relationship with Bai Duan simply gathered around him and enthusiastically "invited" him to the restaurant for "a few drinks".

Bai Duan knew what they were going to ask, but he himself hadn't figured it out after thinking about it all night last night. Even if he thought about it again, he could only continue to be like a headless fly. It would be better to listen to what others said.

Half pushed and half pushed, Bai Duan was dragged by Song Ying and others to the most famous restaurant in the capital, and into the private room with the best privacy.

Everyone in the army celebrates drinking, and even Bai Duan has learned to drink. Although he is not a good drinker, he can still drink two glasses. When the wine was served, everyone didn't ask directly. Instead, they greeted each other and drank a couple of times. When the alcohol got a little hotter and the atmosphere heated up, they asked what happened between Bai Duan and Zhou Mo as if chatting.

Bai Duan hesitated for a moment: "Last night... Brother Zhou said something to me..."

"What did you say?" Song Ying took a sip of wine carelessly, and the two brothers were so happy that they draped Bai Duan's shoulders.

Everyone here is a confidant who accompanied Zhou Mo to fight the world from the very beginning, so there is nothing he can't say. To marry a wife and have children, he... wants to be with me."

Everyone at the table was quiet for a moment, and looked at Bai Duan one after another. Bai Duan was extremely embarrassed by them, and she didn't know what expression to make, so she just lowered her head and drank. He was uneasy for a while, but unexpectedly, after thinking for a while, Song Ying suddenly said: "Listen to you...you and the general are not together yet?!"

Bai Duan was caught off guard by the question and almost choked on his drink. He looked at Song Ying in surprise, and found that Song Ying just scratched her hair with a silly smile: "Isn't it? I thought you and the general were a couple long ago!" After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at the rest of the people , seeking approval, "Do you think so?"

Everyone at the table nodded in amazement - they had long thought that Bai Duan and Zhou Mo were in love, but they never thought that... the window paper was just pierced now? !

Bai Duan looked at the crowd with a blank face, feeling that his three views were split: "You...why do you think that I and Brother Zhou are in love?!"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay and expressed their opinions one after another, but the answers were varied. Some people said that they realized it when Bai Duan was ill and Zhou Mo behaved improperly; If there is an extra egg or a few pieces of meat in Zhou Mo's bowl, he will think about giving it to Bai Duan, and he will do his best to take care of his wife... In short, there are many opinions, but among them, Song Ying is the most shrewd. , he had already seen the clues when he was still in the county.

Talking about her experience of enlightenment, Song Ying had a heartbroken face: "At that time, I was always puzzled why the general suddenly looked at me unhappy, and always assigned me to do the most troublesome work for me. Until one day, after I finished the task, I went to find him. The general reported, and suddenly found that the general’s eyes staring at Mr. Bai who was drawing was very abnormal! It was only then that I realized why I was so unlucky—the general was clearly jealous that I was good at speaking and had a good relationship with Mr. Bai. Ah! It's just..." Song Ying swallowed the next words to complain about Zhou Mo, but the expression of "I'm a big fuck" on his face was extremely vivid and appropriate, perfectly expressing what he was thinking at this moment .

Bai Duan didn't know that he was sent to make a pile with Zhou Mo so early, and he didn't know what to say. After being speechless for a while, he slowly opened his mouth: "Don't you...you don't think this is very strange, it's very...shouldn't it be?"

Everyone looked at each other, and finally Song Ying coughed lightly and smiled wryly: "Actually, this kind of thing is really nothing in our eyes. You know, many of us who started the uprising with the general were all serving Wearing a body of guilt, not to mention marrying a wife, even women are rarely seen. It is actually quite normal for two men to live together. People are not grass and trees, and they can be ruthless. After getting along for a long time and supporting each other, the relationship gradually grows. Deeper, gender doesn't matter that much."

"It's not just people who serve in the military, even in the military, there are often such examples." Another person added, "Everyone lives with their heads on their belts, precarious, and no one knows whether they can survive The next battle, so I don’t think much about it at all. If we are together when we have feelings, who cares so much? It is the right way to enjoy yourself in time and not leave regrets! To tell you the truth, I have such a lover, and I am still in love with you. Together!"

Everyone burst into laughter, shouting "Who cares about you", "I've seen it long ago", and they didn't have so many worries about each other during the exchange of wine and wine. , know each other well, and have not yet been jealous and dissatisfied because of conflicts of interest, so good that they can't wear the same pair of pants.

Bai Duan was opened the door to a new world by the bold and violent men in the army. He was dizzy, but the burden in his heart was suddenly relieved, as if he had figured out something.

Because they still have responsibilities, the crowd didn't make a fuss for too long, and they all dispersed after the time was almost up.

Bai Duan was too drunk, his face was flushed and his eyes were foggy, and he staggered a little when he walked. Song Ying couldn't see him, and was also worried that something might go wrong with him, so she simply helped him up and sent him back to Zhou Mo's Prince Regent's Mansion.

Zhou Mo has eyeliner everywhere in Beijing, so he naturally knows where Bai Duan has gone and what he has done. He received the news early and waited in front of the gate. As soon as he saw the figures of Bai Duan and Song Ying, he quickly walked up to them.

Stared at by the familiar oppressive gaze, Song Ying quickly let go and pushed Bai Duan into Zhou Mo's arms, with an innocent look on her face, she almost swore that she had no delusions about Bai Duan.

Zhou Mo glanced at him: "Please send him back."

"It should be, it should be!" Song Ying rubbed her hands, she had long been used to her family's magnanimous and calm general always becoming petty when it comes to Bai Duan. He watched Zhou Mo wrap Bai Duan into his arms, half hugging and half hugging, his eyes were so gentle that they could almost drip water, he couldn't help but feel very numb, "Mr. Bai is actually just unable to think about it for a while, but anyone can see that , his heart for you, General. Today, the brothers have persuaded him, you... just give him a little more time."

Zhou Mo turned his gaze to Song Ying, and nodded slightly: "Thank you." After a pause, he raised his eyebrows slightly, "You really care about him, and you're afraid that I won't be able to wait, so what are you doing to him?"

Song Ying knew she had made a slip of the tongue, she immediately turned around with a sneer and slipped away, secretly slandering her general for being a big jealousy, can she hide if she can't be provoked

Zhou Mo successfully "chased" away the obstructive person, and was in such a good mood that he carried his drunken sweetheart back to the house and settled down on the bed.

—Facing such a sweet, delicious and defenseless lover, should he eat, eat, or... eat? ^_^
