King Jing was killed. It was found that the wound was caused by Kuhai's unique Qiongdagger. The emperor was furious and sent troops to Kuhai.

On the ninth day of September, Lu Shenxing took command and followed the obtained terrain map all the way over the mountains and ridges, avoiding many traps, and under the command of Xin Liang, the army was unstoppable.

On the twentieth day of the twelfth lunar month of the same year, Kuhai was finally defeated and surrendered.

Emperor Long Xin was overjoyed and betrothed his little princess Ning Jun to Lu Shenxing in front of all the civil and military officials.

Lu Shenxing declined because he already had a heart.

Although the emperor was not happy, this kind of thing should not be forced. If word spread, it would damage the reputation of the royal family. He took a sip of tea and asked, "Which family is the girl Ai Qing's crush on?"

Xin Liang, who had just assumed the post of Chief Minister of Sikyong Yamen, stood behind him. Hearing this, he closed his hands in his sleeves.

Lu Shenxing wrote lightly, "Back to the emperor, the person I like is not a woman."

The court hall was completely silent.

Xin Liang's breath stagnated, and he raised his head suddenly, looking surprised.

The people on the dragon chair stood up and left. The ministers all cast strange looks at Lu Shenxing, and those who had the brains to look at Xin Liang secretly.

Xin Liang frowned and said, "You don't have to do that."

"Sooner or later, the fire can't be wrapped up in paper." Lu Shenxing whispered, "If it drags on, we will be very passive by then."

Xin Liang pursed his lips and remained silent. He couldn't describe his mood at the moment. He thought he was the only one walking in front, but it turned out that this person had always been by his side.

"Lord Chang, please stay."

Lu Shenxing followed the young eunuch to the royal study, and the emperor didn't make any detours and just said it directly.

"Is it Xin Aiqing?"

Lu Shenxing touched his nose and said, "Your Majesty is wise."

The emperor snorted, "How can my Lord Ning be inferior to him?"

"Back to the emperor, the princess is as beautiful as a flower. She has the love of the emperor and the queen, and the admiration of many young masters." Lu Shenxing said with a smile, "Xin Liang is only a minor minister."

The emperor looked unhappy and could not find anything to refute.

It is normal for a man to have three wives, four concubines, but he cannot understand the so-called oneness, which is simply pitiful.

The monarch and his ministers were standing and sitting together, and their views were obviously different.

Huang Di sighed, waved his hand and said, "That's all, you can take care of yourself."

When Lu Shenxing walked out of the palace gate, he saw Xin Liang standing upright in the snow, with snow falling all over his body and his head turning white.

"I want to eat dumplings tonight."

"good."

Lu Shenxing breathed a sigh of relief. The snow on Xin Liang's face slowly melted. He clutched the bamboo stick and asked, "Did the Emperor say anything?"

Looking around, Lu Shenxing wiped off the layer of snow around the black cloth on Xin Liang's eyes, and said with a smile, "He said we can grow old."

Xin Liang was stunned for a moment, and the corners of his lips couldn't help but curl up.

Lu Shenxing held his cold hand and said, "Go back."

On the white ground, two sets of footprints were nestled together, deep and shallow.

On New Year's Eve, thousands of houses in the city are brightly lit.

Xin Liang was sitting on the hot kang, embroidering with a serious expression. Lu Shenxing stretched his neck and took a look. After so long, there was still one lump.

"Do you know how good your embroidery is?"

"It's still watchable."

You were quite confident. Lu Shenxing grabbed Xin Liang's ankle, rubbed his thumb back and forth, and raised his lips, "Do you like me touching you like this?"

The bright red silk thread suddenly went sideways, and the needle scratched a mark on the cloth. Xin Liang's steady breath was slightly disturbed, "I don't like it."

Lu Shenxing's hand was neither light nor heavy, with a hint of careless teasing.

"You are such a lying kid. If I give you another chance, would you like it?"

Xin Liang tilted his head and said, "I like it."

Lu Shenxing found that the curve of his ankle was very beautiful, "Your body is much more honest than your mouth."

Xin Liang made a very light sound from his nose, which seemed to be comfortable but also reserved.

"Doctor Liu gave me something as a gift at that time." Lu Shenxing stretched out his hand to hold Xin Liang in his arms, and lightly scratched the tip of his nose with his index finger, "Let's try to see if it works."

Lu Shenxing lay down casually on the kang, letting Xin Liang sit on top of him.

"Commander, you take command, and I, the general, will be responsible for the final attack."

Xin Liang's limbs stayed stiff for a while, and his hands caressed Lu Shenxing's face inch by inch. His slightly cool fingertips slid from the center of his eyebrows to the straight bridge of his nose, moving slowly and focusing on tracing his face. contour.

Narrowing his eyes, Lu Shenxing's voice was different from before, "Did you feel the bamboo stick?"

Xin Liang swallowed, "...I touched it."

"Then pick it up and hold it in your hand." Lu Shenxing half-closed his eyelids and breathed deeply, "Yes, that's it."

After a while, Xin Liang put down the bamboo stick and said, "Tired."

Lu Shenxing kicked him, his voice hoarse, "Military advisor, you can't do things halfway."

The corners of Xin Liang's lips twitched slightly and she picked up the bamboo stick again.

The kang moved, Lu Shenxing breathed out, and he pulled Xin Liang, the great hero, into his arms.

"I'll take you to the temple fair tomorrow morning."

Lu Shenxing kissed the base of Xin Liang's red ear, moved it to his lips, rubbed it gently and slowly, and simply pressed the back of his head to savor it.

"Um..." Xin Liang's intermittent voice escaped from his lips and teeth, "Well... I'll..."

Lu Shenxing pinched Xin Liang's waist and kissed him deeply. His commanding tone was full of desire and dissatisfaction, "Don't talk."

"Be careful... um... behind your back..."

As soon as Xin Liang finished speaking, Lu Shenxing frowned and hissed, pulling out the needle on his back, "Why didn't you tell me there was a needle on it?"

"I always wanted to remind you." Xin Liang took a breath and said innocently, "You didn't let me say it."

"..." Lu Shenxing stretched out his arms and lay down. The next moment, he straightened up and suppressed Xin Liang's hands and feet.

After playing with Xin Liang for a while, Lu Shenxing finally saw a patch of flowers. He fumbled forward with a bamboo stick, but got stuck at the entrance.

The diameter was too small, so small that it did not conform to the normal proportions. Lu Shenxing took a breath and subconsciously wanted to retreat.

No matter how beautiful the scenery inside is, he doesn't have that fate.

Xin Liang waited and waited, but before Lu Shenxing came to see him, he felt helpless and asked what was wrong.

"Wait a minute, I just found the way." Lu Shenxing cursed angrily in his heart, the veins on his forehead were bulging, and his eyes were red, he couldn't get in.

"It's better to wait for another day."

Xin Liang hummed, but there was an aura of "I really want you to come in" from her hair to her toes.

The smell was so strong that Lu Shenxing couldn't ignore it even if he wanted to. He rubbed his face fiercely and tried to stretch the bamboo stick inward. With enough effort, the bamboo stick seemed to make a creaking sound, swaying and trembling. , it can break at any time.

There's no way I'm going in, there's really no way I'm going in.

Then…

Lu Shenxing went in.

Then, a scream almost lifted the roof off.

The servants in the mansion all woke up from their sleep. It was so scary. They couldn't resist the fight and fell into a deep sleep.

The next day, Lu Shenxing huddled in the bed, and Xin Liang huddled in his arms. Both of them were seriously injured, and they fully realized what pain and happiness were.

Xin Liang touched Lu Shenxing comfortingly, "I really didn't know that I would be different from others."

At this time, the person who should be unable to move is in great spirits, but the person who should be full of energy instead looks weak.

Lu Shenxing glanced at the marks on Xin Liang's neck, his eyes darkened slightly, he pulled up the quilt and blocked Xin Liang's next words under the quilt.

The ideal is beautiful, but the reality is destined to be cruel.

Since then, the small entrance is still disappointing, and the process is still so painful that every time I think about it, I feel endless aftertaste.

Xin Liang's fate changed because of Lu Shenxing, and the life trajectories of those around him were deflected.

In the 16th year of Changyuan, the emperor died, the prince succeeded to the throne, and the country's name was changed to Chengtian.

Xin Hongyuan, who was already in his eighties, was infatuated with Yige Ji and died one day in Rourou Township.

Xin Weichen was the head of the family. After the death of King Jing, he followed a wealthy businessman and was taken in and out of gambling houses. Over time, he became addicted to gambling, and the entire Xin family was ruined by his hands.

The Xin family has never come to see Xin Liang. Maybe they all know a simple truth.

If you were indifferent to others in the past, they will definitely treat you indifferently today.

In the forty-second year of Chengtian's reign, Lu Shenxing's body and bones were still strong, but Xinliang was much worse. His temples were white, and he was often sick for half a month, and the whole room was filled with the smell of medicine.

It was a nice day when Xin Liang left. He said that he always dreamed about his childhood memories and wanted to see his mother. Lu Shenxing agreed to accompany him to visit the grave.

On the way there, Xin Liang fell asleep. He woke up several times after being awakened for a long time. When he woke up, he touched Lu Shenxing's face. His thin fingers lingered on his nose, eyes, and mouth over and over again. He vaguely knew something.

The grave is overgrown with weeds, dancing in the wind.

Xin Liang touched the weeds and pulled them out one by one. Lu Shenxing did not help him.

"I kowtow to my mother."

Xin Liang's forehead touched the rough soil, and his nose was full of fragrance. He pressed his head lower, with a peaceful expression on his face.

Lu Shenxing on the side was surprised why he couldn't get up from his knees. His expression suddenly changed, his back slowly bent down, he picked him up and went home.

There were many people in the hall, and the generals back then were all old. They were discussing Xin Liang's funeral, and all of them had sadness in their eyes.

Lu Shenxing's body felt a little numb. He changed his position and closed his eyes.

"General, why did you prepare two coffins?"

The old man on the chair had his eyes closed and his expression was calm. Tong Yi took a step back in fright and fell to the ground.
