The sound of their breathing echoed softly in the flower hall, the swallows were whispering between the beams, and the red foxes were crawling at their feet. The spring was beautiful, and the heaven and earth were filled with vitality.
Under Yue Feng's long slender eyelashes, a pair of eyes were as blue as water, staring at her momentarily, with her figure clearly reflected in them.
Xia Chu listened to his words, her eyes fell on the smile on his lips, and she was shocked to realize that what he said was true. He really was in her territory and had not even given her a meal.
"We could have been friends." Xia Chu sighed lightly. If his original purpose was just to steal the coffin, she wouldn't be able to help him.
After all, it was about Lan Yuying, and her soul had returned to her homeland. Even if the emperor didn't allow it, she could always think of a way to secretly help him smuggle it out.
But now, it has evolved into this situation...
"Today we will only talk about romance and nothing else." He picked up a chopstick of venison and handed it to her bowl. The smile on his lips gradually condensed and his eyes lowered: "Tomorrow, will you be able to leave the Western Region alive? , leave it to fate.”
The piece of venison that Xia Chu originally picked up with his chopsticks fell into the bowl again. Yue Fengwan's implication was clearly told to her.
Or, she could get the answer she wanted today and escape.
Or, she will die tomorrow and return to the Western Regions.
Her original plan was to leave Bian Ding in the city after entering the imperial city, visit the palace quietly, and then try to leave without a trace.
However, all this ceased to exist when Fei Lian guarded her arrival at the city gate.
Xia Chu's face was stunned for a moment, then he picked up the piece of venison again and ate it. When he looked up again, a bright smile appeared on his face: "In that case, can I make a small request?"
Yue Feng held her left hand to support her forehead and raised her eyebrows slightly: "You said it."
Xia Chu looked out the window and was fighting with Fei Lian, but they both stretched their heads and looked at Bian Ding in the flower hall and said: "Let him leave the Western Region alive."
"Okay." Yue Fengwan's deep voice was as magnetic as ever, and Yue Fengwan answered without hesitation.
Xia Chu felt relieved and his smile became brighter.
She smiled to herself. The tense nerves that had been tense for the past few days had at least relaxed for half a day. Her eyes glanced at the delicacies on the table and relaxed like a tiger pouncing on its food.
Since leaving the capital, apart from having two decent meals at the residence of Gong Zhishuang, the magistrate of Mianxi, after entering the Western Regions, he did not even dare to eat game in the dense forests.
At the beginning of Xia Chu, when he was immersed in eating without any image, he accidentally raised his eyes and found that at some point, Diandian had jumped on another chair, and Yuefengwan was feeding it with some minced meat. He also ate happily without any resistance.
Behind the rays of light, his already extremely beautiful features became more and more vivid and dazzling, eye-catching and eye-catching.
The image of the long, jade-like fingers tearing apart small pieces of meat and feeding them bits and pieces presents another different and alluring appearance.
At this moment, Xia Chu could not help but feel that this picture was extremely beautiful. He even stopped holding the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, and did not even dare to chew loudly on the remaining dishes in his mouth, for fear of disturbing this heavenly picture.
However, because of her sudden silence, Yue Fengwan raised his eyes and looked at her: "Have you finished eating?"
Xia Chu's face was startled, as if the person in the scroll came out to talk to her. She was in a daze for a moment, and then she smiled awkwardly after coming back to her senses: "This dish is not bad."
Diandian suddenly stopped because of Yue Feng's pull, and stretched out her paws dissatisfiedly, grabbing his hand. Xia Chu twitched the corner of her mouth, pulled its chair, and continued to feed it.
"Prepare it according to the taste mentioned by Meng An, I think you should be happy too."
In a quiet room, the water and wind outside the window suddenly rose, and flowers gathered together, making slight ripples.
Xia Chu pursed her lips, wiped the oil stains on her hands, touched some soft fur, and said with a hint of sadness in her tone: "I also brought it to Xun Meng'an."
"If he is the Fox King, he should have recognized you as his master." After Yue Fengwan finished speaking, Xia Chu suddenly raised his head, with a look of panic in his eyes.
She only learned about the origin of Bit Dot from Bai Ruofei's mouth. How could Yue Feng Wan know about it
"You don't have to be so surprised. Since ice poison comes from the Western Regions, its detoxification method is naturally recorded in ancient books. But I thought it was hearsay before, and just now I just made a casual guess." He straightened up, looking more and more tall and elegant: " It seems that I am quite knowledgeable."
A look of surprise appeared on Xia Chu's face. She reached out and hugged Dot and Dot into her arms. She lowered her head and buried the side of her face into its fiery red fur and said lightly: "If I die, it will be ownerless. Meng'an will be very sad." like it."
The late sunshine could not illuminate her downcast face, and only cast a faint shadow on her profile.
Yue Fengwan felt something in his heart beating slightly, which made him involuntarily dare not look her in the face. He turned his gaze sideways and spoke slowly: "She told me a lot about your childhood days in the mountains."
In Xia Chu's mind, those carefree years when she climbed trees to pick fruits with Blue Feather Sakura and went up the mountain to hunt birds appeared in her mind. She asked like she was murmuring in her sleep: "Is it right or wrong for me to take her down the mountain?"
"Later, you can ask her in person." Yue Fengwan couldn't answer for Lan Yuying, and he didn't intend to stop them from meeting.
He stood up and walked towards the door of the flower hall. He turned back to her and said, "Shall I take you around for a while?"
At the beginning of summer, she didn't know where Yue Feng was taking her. All she saw was peach and plum flowers blooming on all sides, willow branches brushing against the bank, and green grass. The little figures were often submerged in the grass, leaving only a flash of fiery red jumping up and down from time to time.
The sunshine in late February sifts through the vines, like golden filaments, changing and flowing.
When the sun fell on them, it turned into a little brilliant halo.
In such blurry and changing light, she saw that his expression seemed to have something different in his usual indifference.
In an instant, the air between them seemed to flow slowly.
Xia Chu turned away from his increasingly burning eyes, broke the unspeakable embarrassment and asked, "Are you and Meng'an cousins?"
When Yue Fengwan heard this, his body froze slightly, and he looked away as if unintentionally, following the fox shadows but said nothing for a long time.
His outlines are extremely clear, and his perfect jaw outlines strong lines. Although he has extremely beautiful eyebrows, he never gives off a feminine feeling.
Xia Chu asked a random topic. Although Lan Yuying was named a princess by Yue Fengwan as the daughter of Yue Hua, the empress was her mother, so she probably borrowed Yue Hua's identity. , the two of them should be cousins. Just as she was wondering, could it be that they were not related by blood
But if you think about it carefully, it's wrong. Yue Fengwan is the son of Yue Hua Shi, and Lan Yuying does have poison in her blood and is a descendant of the royal family.
At the moment when she was confused, Yue Fengwan spoke softly, with a sluggish tone: "She and I are brothers and sisters."
