Views:

"Master."

The only one who would call him by that title.

Fucha Fu Heng turned around and said, "What's the matter with me... Wei Yingluo."

The weather was getting a little colder, and the palace ladies put on their winter clothes, but they saw a light red coming from the wind and snow, so fresh, so delicate, like an enchanting tail finger stained with lipstick, scratched. Wherever they passed, the winter snow was also dyed with rouge.

"Young master." The girl in red walked to Fucha Fu Heng, handed over a strange-looking object, and said with a smile, "This is for you."

Fucha Fu Heng didn't answer, just looked down: "What is this?"

"The Empress always keeps talking, I'm worried that you will feel cold if you always stand on the air vent, but men are no better than women and can't use a stove, so I went to the small kitchen to ask for a pig's shell, poured hot water, sealed it with twine, and put it in my arms. It's warm." She said, and suddenly shoved the thing in her hand into his arms, "Look, isn't it?"

Fucha Fu Heng's heart was hot, and he didn't know whether it was because of her concern or because of the things in her arms.

But as a guard in the palace, how could he accept the palace maid's gift? If someone finds out, he will be fine, but Wei Yingluo is afraid that bad luck will happen, so he stretches out his hand and pushes the thing back: "No, I don't. cold."

But he saw the girl in front of him smiling, not only the gift was appropriate, but also the reason for him: "If someone asks, you say that the queen sent the maid next to you to give it to you, why, the queen is not allowed to care about her brother? "

Fucha Fu Heng was still a little hesitant, but saw her slowly lower her head and sighed.

"You gave me medicine, and I want to give you something back, but I really can't come up with anything decent..." Wei Yingluo said softly, "You... but you dislike..."

"...I don't dislike it." Fucha Fu Heng was silent for a moment, then raised his hand to take the hot pork buns, "Thank you."

Wei Yingluo suddenly raised her head and smiled at him.

For a few hours after that, Fucha Fu Heng had been a little restless, and Wei Yingluo's smile always appeared in front of him.

"Ha Qiu!" His friend Hai Lancha suddenly sneezed, and then rubbed his arms with both hands, "What season is this, the wind in the Forbidden City is still so cold, it pours directly into my neck, tsk!"

The other guards weren't much better either, the cold wind was blowing, but it was hard for the guards on duty, their teeth were chattering with cold, but they couldn't leave their posts without permission. They could only walk on the spot or rub their bodies to keep warm.

Among the group of guards whose faces were white with cold, Fucha Fu Heng, whose complexion was as usual, even a little rosy, was extremely conspicuous.

"...What are you hiding in your arms?" Hai Lancha's eyes were good, his hands and feet were faster, and before he could finish speaking, his hand had already reached out, and he snatched the pig's claws out of Fucha Fu Heng's arms, and was scalded by the heat , he couldn't help shivering happily, and then said in surprise, "Ah, what is this, ho, so warm!"

As he said that, he hurriedly shoved it into his arms.

"Give it back to me!" Fucha Fu Heng hurriedly reached out and grabbed it.

The two have practiced martial arts since childhood. Although Fucha Fu Heng is strong, Hailancha is not bad. All kinds of small hand-to-hand skills are used, but Fucha Fu Heng can't take back the pig's claws for a while.

"Why are you so nervous?" Hailancha and the air conditioner played on him, "Could it be that someone else gave it? This thing looks inconspicuous, but it's a coincidence. Looking at your nervous appearance, I guess it wasn't given by a man, could it be... Which little palace maid is courting you?"

Fucha Fu Heng hurriedly denied: "No!"

"No?" Hailancha immediately smiled and said, "If it's something a woman gave you, I wouldn't dare to ask for it, but since it's not, what else do the two brothers have to share with each other, what's yours is mine, I'll accept it with a smile. Aha!"

Le Ji was saddened, and I saw Hai Lancha screaming, and the man like an iron tower suddenly rolled to the ground. He had just shouted cold, but now he pressed his chest tightly against the cold snow. Snow stuffed into his arms.

"Hai Lancha, Hai Lancha! What's the matter with you?" Fucha Fu Heng hurriedly squatted down to take a look. When he saw the situation clearly, he was first shocked and then angry, "... how could it be... "

"Wei Yingluo!"

Wei Yingluo, who was sweeping the snow, stopped her broom and asked, "What's wrong?"

A palace maid said to her: "Fucha guards are waiting for you by the well in the back of the palace, saying they have something to ask."

So fast? Wei Yingluo was stunned, then nodded: "Thank you, I'll go right now!"

Next to the well that separated in the morning, the two met again.

The same wind and snow, the same red clothes, the only difference is his attitude.

Fucha Fu Heng grabbed Wei Yingluo's wrist and looked down at her with unspeakable anger: "What kind of hatred do I have with you, you want to hurt me like this!"

Wei Yingluo raised her head and looked at him, pretending to be surprised: "Master, what are you talking about?"

"That pig bun!" Fucha Fu Heng said solemnly, his eyes were filled with disappointment instead of anger, "It exploded."

Unexpectedly, the next second, something warm came into his arms.

The nephrite jade is warm and fragrant, and it is actually the hand of a daughter.

Splashing the sky's anger was mostly dissipated by her touch. Fucha Fu Heng seemed to have been stabbed by a sword. Cool, only then did I calm down, but my face was still red and my ears were equatorial: "What are you doing?"

"Why did the pig's bun explode?" Wei Yingluo's body was snuggled up, and her hands reached out to his chest again, "Look, did I hurt you?"

She walked in such a hurry and threw herself so recklessly that she was about to fall into the well with him.

Fucha Fu Heng hurriedly caught her, and as soon as the next plate was forced, the person was frozen in place like a pine biting a stone, and sighed: "It's not me, it's my friend Hai Lancha, he was scalded by a pig's shell. ."

Wei Yingluo was stunned, then slowly lowered her head, hiding her expression in the shadows, and said softly: "It's not that the young master is injured, it must be because I am too impatient, I just want to give you the gift as soon as possible. , As a result, Zhu Tu's mouth was not sealed tightly, your friend... is he all right?"

"It's nothing serious, but the burn is not serious." Fucha Fu Heng paused and narrowed his eyes suspiciously, "You really didn't mean it?"

Wei Yingluo slowly raised her head, the flakes of snow melted on her skin, and the heat she exhaled almost hit his face, which made Fucha Fu Heng's cheeks get hot, and even felt that she didn't need to explain, she also believe her.

"Master, are you really all right?" Wei Yingluo slowly raised a hand and gently stroked his cheek, "Your face is so red, is it burnt?"

Fucha Fu Heng quickly grabbed her unruly hand: "No, I didn't..."

"But your face is very red." Wei Yingluo's eyes moved to his hands, "Hands are also very hot."

Fucha Fu Hengzhen let go of his hand like a burn, and turned around and left in a rather embarrassed manner.

Behind the girl's crisp laughter: "Master, in fact, the pig's noodle is packed with ice cubes in summer, and it is very cool against the skin. I will make another one for you in summer!"

Fu Cha, Fu Heng, didn't even have the courage to turn back and respond. He fled all the way, and when he returned to the guard's duty room, it happened that the imperial doctor had just changed the medicine for Hai Lancha and was packing the medicine box.

"Hey, why is my life so hard?" Hailancha lay on the bed and sighed, "I didn't die on the battlefield, but I was almost killed by a hot pot."

"The scourge has lasted for thousands of years, don't worry, you won't die." Fucha Fu Heng sent the imperial physician away, found a stool and sat down beside him, and said with concern, "What did the imperial physician say, it doesn't matter, do I need to grant you a leave? ?"

"Then grant me ten days of leave, so that I can avoid this horrible weather." Hailancha asked for a leave bluntly, and saw Fucha Fu Heng agree with him. , "I have suffered this on your behalf. How about, tell me about your good things?"

Hailancha usually makes a lot of jokes like this, but only this time, Fucha Fu Heng was stunned, his face was a little dry, he hesitated for a moment before replying: "...What kind of relationship is there?"

Hailan checked and saw that there was a door, and immediately forgot about the injuries on his body, he got up from the bed and said to him with great interest: "Fu Heng, although this thing exploded, I still have to say To be fair! It's so troublesome to deal with pigs, and they have to use hemp rope to seal them up, and they can't stay up for two overnights. What else can they do for you other than their hearts!"

"So troublesome?" Fucha Fu Heng suddenly came back to his senses, the other party was lying to him!

"Isn't it?" Hai Lancha patted his shoulder and said cheerfully, "I'll bet my life that the girl who gave you the thermos must be interested in you! What about you? Do you like her? Like her Which point?"

Which point

In an instant, countless pictures flooded into Fucha Fu Heng's eyes.

She is like a rouge dyed red winter snow clothes.

She suddenly felt like a spring breeze came overnight, and thousands of pear trees were smiling.

She was gripped by the smooth skin in his hands.

"Hey, what about you?" Hailancha shook his shoulder, "Which point?"

every point.

"...Shut up!" Fucha Fu Heng was suddenly annoyed, but he didn't know whether he was annoyed at the other party or himself.

"Wei, don't go, come back, it's just a joke, why are you angry!" Hailancha shouted behind his back, but did not stop Fucha Fu Heng's footsteps, but he also determined something because of this, with a smile on his face. He shouted at the other person's back, "The weather is cold, next time you look good and give you a new pig bun, remember to borrow it from your brother!"
