An umbrella of yellow orioles embraced the moon to cover the charming, Huo Linfeng raised his arms around Rong Luoyun, his robe swayed slightly, as if it would slip off his shoulders in the next moment. Rong Luoyun was also obedient, let him hug her, and there was a bit of "listening" in his obedience, as if making someone useless his martial arts.

The edge of the umbrella is getting lower and lower, and the rattan on the top is touching the jade crown, which is a bit oppressive. Holding the umbrella like this, Huo Linfeng obviously didn't feel at ease, and put his cheek against the handle of the umbrella, pretending to be begging.

It's a pity that Rong Luoyun's mood was disturbed by the eagle bone flute, and he was too dull to respond.

Huo Linfeng took advantage of the void to sneak in, get closer, and then get closer, and steal a sip of incense under the umbrella. But without touching his lips, he nodded slightly, and it was printed on Rong Luoyun's eyebrows.

The frowning brows were finally relaxed, the eyes under the brows were closed, and the eyelashes trembled. Rong Luoyun was dazed, he raised the eagle bone flute in his hand, and poked Huo Linfeng in the heart.

Huo Linfeng moaned cooperatively: "Ah."

As if poking wasn't enough, Rong Luoyun drilled hard.

Huo Linfeng said: "He's here again to seek wealth and murder."

Hearing this, Rong Luoyun let go of his hands, and suddenly confessed: "I quarreled with my sister." He raised the umbrella higher, and stared at the other party against the lights of the corridor, "Sister said, I should cut the mess quickly, otherwise It will be more painful in the future.”

Huo Linfeng asked: "Then what do you say?"

Rong Luoyun replied: "Then I admit it."

No matter how far it develops in the future, no matter how bad it is, but right now they can still embrace each other in the long night. So what about looking at the setting sun and hoping for dawn? Knowing that darkness is coming, at least the setting sun is still beautiful.

Huo Linfeng's thoughts were touched, and he couldn't express his feelings, nor could he speak muddled words. He pulled Rong Luoyun to sit on the porch, hugged her, and wrapped her robe around her from behind.

They were facing the wet yard, with a gauze lantern hanging above their heads, which just illuminated the sound hole of the eagle bone flute. He lowered his head, put his chin on Rong Luoyun's shoulder, raised his arms around, and held Rong Luoyun's hands.

"This hole is next to the lower lip," he taught, holding his hand. "Blow."

Rong Luoyun pouted lightly, and blew a fleeting sound. Huo Linfeng laughed: "It's too short, try blowing on a long one."

Woo'er, Rong Luoyun blows again, it's as short as a white horse. Huo Linfeng doesn't believe in that evil, he has deep inner strength, but he can't sing a long tune? He ordered to play again, but it was still short, and continued to play, still short, and after three or five beeps, there was no improvement.

Huo Linfeng was in a daze. The young master's temper made him want to teach others a lesson, and his outpouring of love told him to be patient. Looking up, Rong Luoyun's silhouette was quiet, with eyes downcast and mouth pursed, as if he had been wronged and forbearing.

He suddenly understood, so he asked knowingly, "What's the matter?"

Rong Luoyun said: "I can't learn."

As if playing tricks, he turned around and stared at Huo Linfeng. He thought bitterly, what is the north wind

"This song is unlucky, it's better to play it less." He stuffed the eagle bone flute into Huo Linfeng's lapel, and put it on Huo Linfeng's shoulder.

This is nonsense, Huo Linfeng was speechless and helpless: "You can even say it's unlucky, do you understand the rhythm?" He explained carefully, "I can't go to other places in the prison, I am the biggest here, No one can threaten, so what is there to be taboo about?"

Rong Luoyun said: "Then there's no need to play this sad song."

Huo Linfeng circled himself in, and simply stopped talking, where is he the biggest here, the one in his arms is really domineering. Sudden silence, Rong Luoyun raised his eyes and peeked at the other party, angry

It was rarely his turn to coax others, so he felt a little helpless, and tried to hook Huo Linfeng's waist with his hands. What a coincidence, Huo Linfeng was wearing a middle coat, not tied around his waist.

Rong Luoyun's outstretched fingers were very embarrassed, and he withdrew them embarrassingly, and scratched his neck.

So he moved to the side again, rubbing his back, leaning against the other's neck like a puppy sniffing. Although Huo Linfeng is not a gentleman, his level of calmness is first-rate, he doesn't move at all, anyway, the roots of his ears are red and he can't see it.

After suffering, Rong Luoyun sniffed like a dog, grabbed clothes like a cat, and stared with black eyes like a bird. After a long time, he was tired from tossing around, lowered his head and sighed, and pulled the eagle bone flute back from his lapel.

Blocking the sound hole, Rong Luoyun blew out a long sound.

As soon as he finished blowing, Huo Linfeng held his hand and resumed his teaching posture. "You stinky soldier from Saibei!" He scolded, "You are used to hanging people, and you are used to punishing me!"

Huo Linfeng snorted: "If I could cure you, I would have brought you in and been turned into a red wave. What are you doing sitting here?"

Rong Luoyun said: "I won't enter your house, I'll leave after blowing." At the moment, he is a rambunctious puppy, a cat with bright claws, and a fucking bird with fluttering wings, "I'll blow all the way back to the extraordinary palace , the others were woken up, wondering whose family would hold the funeral in the middle of the night!"

Huo Linfeng shrugged his shoulders happily, restrained the little rascal, and taught him to blow bit by bit. The tune is not difficult, just memorize the sound, and add practice.

He wants to give away the eagle bone flute that has accompanied him for many years. On a rainy night in early autumn, I feel that there is a touch of beauty as a gift to my beloved.

"Don't give it to me." Rong Luoyun dismantled the stage in a cold voice, and stuffed the flute back into the lapel, "Since you're here, I don't need to play it. I'll go back and practice with big brother's bagpipe."

Huo Linfeng had no choice but to give up, and told: "Duan Huaike's flute, wash it before touching your mouth."

He taught as well as learned, and spent time until he was ugly. He was already tired today, and Rong Luoyun leaned against Huo Linfeng's arms and yawned. He wanted to go back to the extraordinary palace to sleep, but he struggled to the ground and stood in front of Huo Linfeng.

"Why don't you tonight-"

Rong Luoyun shook his head, he is not allowed to stay overnight, and his sister will be pissed off if it is passed on to Chaomu Tower. Before leaving, he raised his hand to hold Huo Linfeng's chin, like an apprentice provoking a big girl.

Huo Linfeng came to cooperate again: "Officer, do you really want to leave?"

Rong Luoyun suppressed a smile: "By the way, I took the wolf cub with me when I left the barracks." He was afraid that the little beast would get lost, and besides, it was his son, so it was only natural to take him back.

"Then be careful, don't let it get hurt." Huo Linfeng said.

Rong Luoyun let out an "um", retreated to the courtyard, opened his umbrella, and disappeared in place in an instant. Huo Linfeng rushed out, looking up at the figure stepping on the roof tiles, his heart was suddenly in a mess.

"Xiao Rong!" he yelled.

Rong Luoyun hurriedly stopped and looked back.

Huo Linfeng said in a daze, "Give the wolf cub a name."

Rong Luoyun frowned: "An animal still has a name?"

"Your donkeys all have names, so don't be partial." Huo Linfeng said, "Think about it, and give our son a loud name."

What our son! In the dead of night, people are not afraid of being heard... Rong Luoyun nodded indiscriminately, agreed, turned around and left without a trace.

The courtyard was suddenly empty, and Huo Linfeng stood there, looking at the roof for a long time. He waited for the drizzle to wet his robe before he entered the room, and saw Du Zheng nestled at the door of the bedroom to watch the night.

He kicked lightly: "Idiot, I want to eat supper."

Du Zheng got up in a daze: "I'm going to get it right now. What does the young master want to eat, fish noodles?"

Huo Linfeng said: "It doesn't need to be so troublesome, just boiling a pot of wine is enough."

People who march and fight hardly drink alcohol on weekdays, let alone drink alone in the middle of the night. But Du Zheng didn't dare to say much, so he went to get it right away, besides a pot of wine, he also cooked two dishes of side dishes to go with the wine.

When he brought it back, he saw Huo Linfeng sitting at the table with the reply letter from Saibei on the table. After filling a glass of wine, he waited aside, secretly watching his master's "unhappiness".

Huo Linfeng raised his neck and drank it all, poured another cup, and stopped drinking five or six cups in a row.

"Master, have some food." Du Zheng waited carefully, "I heard something vaguely at that time, the second palace master has come?"

Huo Linfeng continued to pour the wine: "Here we are, let's go." He turned his face to look at Du Zheng, "At the beginning of the year, I won the battle and returned home. I thought at night that if I find a decent person in the future, I must teach him to play the eagle bone flute."

Du Zheng asked: "Master, did you teach the Second Palace Mistress how to play?"

Huo Linfeng didn't say a word, and drank one cup after another, so fiercely, the pot of wine quickly drained. He caught the last drop at the spout, and when he let go, the flagon shattered to the ground.

He picked up the letter, looked down, and looked at it from the beginning to the end.

"I broke my promise." Huo Linfeng said, "I didn't keep my promise and lied to him again."

He refers to Rong Luoyun? Du Zheng guessed, but he didn't dare to vent his anger, let alone ask how he cheated.

Huo Linfeng held the letter close to the candlestick, a corner touched the flames, and the whole paper quickly burned to ashes. He got up in the smoke and dust, walked to the side of the bed and fell down, lying on the bed slumped.

"Master..." Du Zheng called softly.

Huo Linfeng waved his hand and pulled open the gauze curtain. He was tired, and it would be dawn if he didn't sleep. After a while, there was the sound of even breathing in the room, and Du Zheng finished packing the table and went to watch outside the door.

In the early morning of the next day, the servants worked as usual, secretly discussing what happened in the courtyard last night. Just as he was talking, Huo Linfeng came out of the room, dressed in a general's uniform and carrying a sword, he was so handsome that no one could take his eyes off it.

Apart from being handsome, he was also very energetic, as if nothing had happened a few hours ago, he strode away from the courtyard and asked his subordinates to wait in the meeting room.

When it arrived, Huo Linfeng took the main seat, and cut to the chase: "The wind and rain in the south of the Yangtze River is so severe, it opened my eyes." He clapped his palms and smiled, showing ease, "Hu Feng, except for the guards at the city gates and checkpoints, Leave some guards in the barracks, and the rest of the squad will patrol the city."

After finishing speaking, he looked at the official in the yamen, and said, "Lord Gao, send someone to the farmer's house to make statistics to see if there is any loss of farmland and how much it has been lost, and then issue silver taels as compensation."

Then he looked at Master Zhao who was in charge of the granary. "Rainwater is pervasive, count the food wasted due to dampness." Huo Linfeng explained, "Regardless of whether it is in short supply or not, send people to the counties in the north today to buy some supplies in case of emergencies."

There are also house repairs, and military doctors are sent to the door for diagnosis and treatment. Everything is properly arranged. Huo Linfeng gave orders, ordered people to do it immediately, and went out to patrol the streets himself.

The officials are so dedicated, the knights of the rivers and lakes are not used to it.

For several days, Xiganling, which had been devastated by the rain, gradually recovered. Xiao Jia opened his doors to do business, and traders and pawns filled the market again. Even fishermen took the courage to board boats and row into the swollen river.

Huo Linfeng walked to the pier and saw one screaming at the other. It was really strange. He joined the army without fear of death. What kind of boat did he support? The fisherman, who was scolded so badly, was quite embarrassed, holding his oar and muttering: "It's the tenth day, it's okay to think about it."

Huo Linfeng pointed to the turbulence of the river: "It doesn't matter how many days it is, if the water level hasn't dropped, don't let the mother haggle with me."

The fisherman said with emotion: "They are all worthless lives, but the general feels pity for the brothers..."

You have parents, an elder brother, and a little lover who is afraid of falling even if you are holding them, who will pity you! Huo Linfeng refused to admit it, ordered someone to lock up the fishing boat, and walked away with a straight face.

As he walked, he thought that it had been ten days, so it was almost the same.

It was afternoon, the rain stopped for a while, and the sun was faintly exposed. Huo Linfeng strolled to the main street in the city, which was the widest and most crowded, and he could walk straight along to the city gate.

"General Huo!" Many people called him.

He nodded in agreement, and several dolls chased and played around him, shouting "General Huo, help." He picked up one with a smile, carried it for two steps, put it down for another, and weighed each one.

After walking a long distance, something was stuffed in his hand, it was a piece of crispy sesame cake. He looked back and saw that the old child selling cakes had lost all his teeth, covering his mouth and smiling at him embarrassedly.

Huo Linfeng opened his mouth and ate, his teeth and cheeks were full of sweetness, and when he turned his head, he saw a fast horse rushing into the city gate.

The guards ran along, obviously not stopping them, while the horsemen continued to gallop, even entering the crowded downtown without slowing down. "Get out of the way! Get out of the way!" The other party shouted in a deep voice, "A quick horse doesn't have eyes! Make way!"

He stood in the middle of the street and watched, getting closer and closer, and saw the other person's clothes clearly. With dark blue arrow sleeves and brocade hat, and a cowhide luggage, his riding posture is very skillful.

There are nearly ten thousand post soldiers in Dayong. Judging from the attire of this man, he is the chief of the post soldiers, and the delivery should be urgent for eight hundred miles.

The other party also saw his official uniform clearly, and his eyes widened abruptly: "Woo!" He got off his horse, rushed forward and clasped his fists in front of him, "Is it General Huo if you dare to ask?"

Huo Linfeng said: "I am."

The people on both sides have been blocked by officers and soldiers, and a smooth road has been opened. The chief of post soldiers took out something from the cowhide bag, which was a bright yellow book.

It is the emperor's handbook.

Huo Linfeng's face was calm, and his eyes were closed, as if he had known it earlier.

"Urgently summon Huo Linfeng to return to the fortress." The other party declared, "Take command - put down the chaos."
