Jin Bihui's fingers tightly grasped the white silk kit, and the priceless dust-proof bead inside hurt her palm.

She just stood quietly behind her husband-in-law, listening to the tune, but her eyes fell on the brocade bag in her hand—there, in the interlayer of the brocade bag, a few lines of small words were densely embroidered on the blood-stained ice cream:

"After the farewell to Jipu, the rivers and lakes are filled with disappointment.

"Who forgets each other first? Qingguo is the homeland.

"Holding the wind is like holding a sleeve, holding hands like a beginner.

"There are only imaginations in the world, and the world is always whirling."

Finally, there are six small characters "Yu Tianqing's eleventh year".

The eleventh year of Tianqing... That was eight years ago. That year, Emperor Lixi passed away, and before the crown prince succeeded, the fourth emperor's uncle, King Yonglin, set off a turmoil in the palace, and Liguo fell into turmoil in an instant.

This is the poem he gave to the eldest grandson and concubine when he was at the beginning of chaos and knew that the world was far away, right

She suddenly felt like crying, but she gritted her teeth and endured it. She doesn't know Yan Bai... She doesn't know what kind of person her "husband" is—when she met him, he was twenty-seven—

So, in the previous twenty-seven years, what kind of people had he met? What kind of things have you done? What kind of accidents and pains have you encountered? What joy have you had? ...

She, however, knew nothing—just like he knew her.

Jin Bihui couldn't help laughing softly anymore, she suddenly felt ridiculous at this moment - it turns out that no matter how accurate her father's vision is and how unruly she is, there are always some things that are not determined by human power at all.

Everyone gathered, Xiaofeng met his younger brother, and the two settled the tired sergeant separately, letting Shen Tiexin accompany Prince Xueya to rest for a while. Seeing the Seventh Prince's broken expression, Shen Tiexin felt apprehensive. He couldn't wait to find a place to ask the commander what happened quietly, so he immediately retreated.

In the luxurious cabin, suddenly only the three brothers and sisters of the Jin family were left.

Xiaofeng has a calm temper, and because he and Suanni were not born to the same mother, the brothers have not been very warm since they were young, and they don't talk. They just look at the youngest sister, with a faint smile on her pale and handsome face. worry.

Jin Bihui didn't speak, and repeatedly rubbed the kit in his hand, surprisingly quiet. Suan Ni was silent for a moment, and finally couldn't help but asked in amazement: "Fifth girl, what's wrong with you? - Didn't your man come back well? Do you feel sorry for him being hurt like that? Don't worry, he won't die—"

Xiaofeng raised his head suddenly, his eyes were like knives, and sealed the words of the fourth brother.

However, it was too late, Suan Ni was shocked to see that the corners of the lips of the pungent younger sister suddenly sank, and she burst into tears: "You still talk! You still talk! - You can't come back, you can't come back for anything La!"

The moment Suan Ni saw big tears falling from his sister's eyes, Suan Ni was completely stunned: After he was ten years old, he never saw his sister cry like this.

Xiaofeng didn't speak, but put his hands on his sister's shoulders, and slowly drew them closer. Jin Bihui originally twisted his body and sat up straight, but after being stubborn for a while, he fell into his brother's arms, tugging at his sleeves and crying wantonly.

Xiaofeng sighed, and patted her on the shoulder: "Don't be sad, what is this matter? - That kid is half-hearted, I'm sorry for you, at most you can divorce him! Brother, tell daddy. If daddy refuses, Just follow me to Beihai and ignore him."

When Suan Ni heard this, his eyes changed instantly, and he stood up abruptly: "I killed that kid!"

"None of your business!" Before he walked out the door, Jin Bihui grabbed Fourth Brother's robe, angrily, "You are not allowed to touch a finger of him! Do you hear me? Otherwise, I, I... I will turn against you!"

Suan Ni was stunned, staring at the girl's face for a long time, then with a hint of disbelief, she looked to the side of Xiao Feng questioningly. Xiaofeng shook his head slightly at the fourth brother, pulled him back to his seat, and sighed: "You still don't understand?——This time, the fifth girl has completely fallen into the hands of that kid."

"What should I do? That girl hasn't spoken for a few days. She ran out in the middle of the night yesterday. She didn't know where she went and she came back today!" It was already the fifth day, and Suan Ni was still full of anger, "According to my temper, That kid should have been slaughtered a long time ago! Who is it... Except that the fifth girl is a little more irritable, she is one of a thousand girls!"

"Choose one out of ten thousand." Under the window, the man in white with hair tied took a sip of his tea and added. Xiaofeng looked at the Feige letter he had just received in his hand, frowned, and there was an indifferent expression on his pale and delicate face, "Even if we are in a hurry, we can't intervene at all, just wait, then The girl will figure it out by herself."

"Hey! How can you be so comfortable? You know that girl has never been afraid of anything since she was a child, but she is afraid that you and daddy are not here now, so you can't make a good idea?" The elder brother who is not in the big family feels a little resentful.

"Stop arguing! I'm so annoying!" The two people's crossed eyes were suddenly blocked by a red dress, and Jin Bihui jumped out, blocking between the two brothers, and said angrily, "Father knows that you two If I quarrel again, I will be scolded again!—Do you think I am not troublesome enough?"

Xiao Feng looked at Suan Ni, and when Suan Ni saw her sister getting angry, she quickly put away her temper: "Okay, don't quarrel, don't quarrel. It's my fault, second brother."

Xiaofeng just smiled lazily, leaned back in the chair, looked at the girl, and sneered slightly: "You still have the strength to get angry... It seems not bad. I thought you hanged yourself after crying."

"Oh bah! You just went to hang yourself!" Jin Bihui was furious, completely forgetting that he had pulled his sleeve and cried bitterly a few days ago, and jumped, "I don't want him anymore! Who cares? Let him get out, Get out of here immediately!"

"Oh?" Suan Ni was taken aback, looked up at his sister, but his eyes were joyful, "Okay, you said it! I'll let this kid go immediately-to be honest, seeing him in the fleet, my teeth itch Tight."

Seeing Suan Ni striding out, the mocking wind didn't move, looking at the document in his hand thoughtfully, with an unpredictable smile on the corner of his mouth. The atmosphere in the room became quiet again in an instant, Jin Bihui stared at the second brother, but suddenly felt a little guilty - since she was a child, apart from her father, she was most afraid of the second brother's half-smile look.

"You, what are you laughing at?" She used a louder voice to hide her guilty conscience, but Xiaofeng didn't speak, just flicked the newly delivered paperwork on the table and smiled: "Have you read it?"

"What have you seen?" Jin Bihui frowned and denied, but seeing the mocking eyes, he stomped his feet and snorted, "I just watched it, why?"

The second son of Sea King stood up, walked to the window with his hands behind his back, and said calmly: "Brother succeeded in besieging Wei and saving Zhao. King Yonglin did not dare to stay long after occupying Ye City. He has already left his camp and returned to Chaofeng." The bright sunshine outside hit his pale face On the sky, it seemed to shine with the light of the polar iceberg where he lived. Xiao Feng pointed at the document on the case with his fingers, and sighed: "Brother is coming back soon... Dad knows the news even if he wants to come. If that guy wants to survive, he really has to get out of here."

Jin Bihui bit his lip, looked at the second brother resentfully, and finally had to acquiesce. He snorted and kicked the threshold: "Anyway, he still has his own troops, so he can't go anywhere?"

"You know? That guy doesn't want to be the emperor. Shen Tiexin can't persuade him—instead, he said, as long as Liguo is unified, it doesn't matter whoever becomes the emperor..." He said mockingly, but his eyes were also Somewhat dejectedly, "He persuaded the generals to join the battle under King Yonglin, so that the country can be settled as soon as possible. Shen Tiexin has been angry for the past few days, and he is going to pull the army and leave by himself."

Jin Bihui didn't speak, and looked outside—the fleet had already returned to Dayan Bay in the territory of Xi Kingdom, where it was moored, densely packed like a forest. There was a faint mourning sound coming from outside—

"Prince Princess Changsun was buried today, and soldiers from the Left Army of the Li Kingdom paid her funeral... It was a sea burial."

Seeing his sister lost in thought, Xiao Feng added another sentence, raising his hand to caress his eyebrows, feeling the joys and sorrows flooding in like a tide, and his always calm heart was also in confusion: "Do you want to see it?"

"Don't...don't go." Jin Bihui was still in a trance, muttering, "Let him get lost, go... as far away as possible!"

"Okay, tonight I'll send him away overnight - wherever he likes." Xiao Feng agreed, glanced at his sister, and found that she was just in a daze, didn't say anything, and had no nostalgia.

He suddenly couldn't help asking: "Girl, how sad are you? - Do you really love that prince Xueya? Or is it because you have never been looked down upon so much since you were a child, and you feel embarrassed?"

Jin Bihui's face turned red, and she gave her brother a hard look: "I want you to take care of it!"

After a while of silence, she listened to the mourning outside, and vaguely heard the melodious sound of the flute again. She was holding the white silk kit in her hand, looking at the poem on it, she couldn't help being a little crazy.

"I don't know either." After a while, she suddenly turned her head and smiled at the mocking wind. This time, he was a little surprised to see that there was a warm and distant look on his sister's eyebrows, and Jin Bihui's eyes were a little perplexed. "Actually, think about it, in the past ten days, thanks to them, I have at least understood a lot of things."

The woman in red suddenly laughed, jumped over, and grabbed her brother's sleeve: "Now I know how kind you are to me...Second brother, you said that if I divorced you, you would take me to Beihai, wouldn't you? Count!"

Xiaofeng looked down at her, and smiled slightly: "Okay. Even if Dad doesn't agree, I'll take you away anyway. See icebergs, white bears and groups of flying fish—okay?"

"Hey, the second brother is the best!" Jin Bihui laughed, but there was always a trace of depression in the deepest part.

Xiaofeng patted her on the shoulder, but there was a gentle smile deep in his eyes.
