Chapter 37

Views:

An Changqing was bewildered and waited on the spot, unable to figure out what Xiao Zhige was going to do suddenly. He was in a daze when he heard someone call him from behind.

"Cousin Changqing..."

Li Haiyun looked at him with bright eyes, his mind was dizzy due to the alcohol, he took a step forward and wanted to grab An Changqing's hand: "I..."

"Why is my cousin here?" An Changqing took a quick step back, seeing that his face was red and smelled of alcohol, as if he was drunk, and looked around: "Cousin didn't bring anyone out? I Have someone take you back."

Li Haiyun looked at him sadly: "I'm here to find you... Are you, are you still complaining about me?"

He stammered and explained with a big tongue: "I don't know... I didn't know that you were given a marriage to the Northern War King. They all kept it from me... I turned down the family marriage as soon as I returned to my hometown. I was thinking about after high school. I'll mention it to my family, I didn't expect it to be so late..."

The more An Changqing listened to it, the more inexplicable it became. He only felt that today's one or two were not normal. He felt that his relationship with Li Haiyun was not close, so he said a little impatiently: "This is not your business. Brother is drunk, I'll ask someone to take you back."

Li Haiyun took the opportunity to grab his sleeve and said rascally, "I'm not going! If you want to go, you go with me!"

***

An Changyu, who was hiding not far away, saw this scene, and then looked behind the two of them. Xiao Zhige, who strode with a gloomy face, finally showed a smile.

It didn't cost him so much thought.

One last glance at Li Haiyun who was still pulling An Changqing's sleeves, An Changyu slowly turned around and left.

Li Haiyun, An Changqing... He didn't look at any of these two. But first, there was a pair of shuangyuan in the middle, and his father often used this as an example to reprimand him, and then another concubine also dared to climb on his head to make a fortune and bully his mother.

Now that these two people are mixed together, it just happens to call him two birds with one stone, which is really pleasing.

After tonight, those people who made him feel sick after seeing it, should not have the strength to disgust him.

***

Xiao Zhige took the lantern, which he had spent a lot of time picking up, and strode back to find An Changqing, desperately suppressing the raised corners of his mouth. Although he is not good at words and emotionally awkward, he is not really a fool. He can feel the changes An Changqing has treated him these days. It was just those preconceived ideas that made him dare not believe it.

He was afraid that he expected too much, but it was still empty after all.

—until he saw the wish in the lantern.

On the small piece of paper stuffed in the lantern, it was written in black and white in beautiful small letters: "I have a hair with you, and a white head in the world."

When he picked up the lantern, he hesitated for a long time, thinking about thousands of possibilities, but never thought that An Changqing's wish would be to go to the old days with him.

He thought that there would still be a trace of unwillingness in his heart for this marriage.

But the truth told him that he thought too badly. In fact, his concubine also had affection for him, and was even willing to spend her whole life with him.

It was like a fire was burning in his heart, and the strongest wine at the border was not as hot as the scorching heat in his heart at this time. Xiao Zhige didn't even care about taking care of himself, so he hurried back to find An Changqing. But he didn't want to see Li Haiyun pulling An Changqing's sleeve.

There were too many people around and it was too noisy, and the lights were too dim. He couldn't see their expressions or hear their words. Only vaguely saw them seem to be arguing.

Xiao Zhige took a step back and even wanted to flee, pretending that he had never seen this scene before. However, both feet stood there like lead, unable to move...

***

An Changqing frowned and pulled his sleeves back. He was so impatient with his drunken madness that he couldn't even maintain the least politeness. I don't care! After all, we're not really acquainted, are we?"

Li Haiyun stayed for a while: "Isn't it familiar? You really hate me..."

An Changqing was irritable and inexplicable: "What do I hate you for for no reason?"

Li Haiyun said with a guilty conscience: "I hate that I have a heartless heart, go back to Changyang to talk to my relatives, and leave you alone in the prime minister's residence... I also hate that I can't save you out of the fire pit..."

"???" An Changqing finally realized that something was wrong, and looked at him with a frown: "Wait a minute, is there a misunderstanding here? My cousin and I have only met a few times, what do you want to do with me? Are you here to be unhappy?"

"You should hate me even if you hate me, but don't say we don't know each other well, I'm sad to hear..." Li Haiyun said dejectedly: "When we went to the lake to enjoy the scenery together, I fell in love with you at first sight and gave you a love poem. So happy..."

An Changqing felt that he and he did not remember the same past event at all, so he searched through the few remaining memories, but did not remember any love poems he had received from him: "When did I receive your love poems? Spray people!"

"Double white heads in the clouds, adore me for a while. I have nothing to do for a long time, and the Qing family has an old friend." Li Haiyun blushed and said a little aggrieved: "I was afraid that my cousin would be too abrupt, so I composed a Tibetan song. I gave you the first poem. Later, I asked you if you liked this poem, and you said you liked it... Even if you are angry with me, you shouldn't deny it."

An Changqing only felt a thunder flash in his mind, and a past event suddenly emerged. After that, I just felt speechless and embarrassed.

He took a step back and said sternly: "This is really a misunderstanding. I'm not good at poetry, and I don't understand the deep meaning of my cousin's hidden poems. It's just out of politeness that I like it. If it's a misunderstanding by my cousin, then I take back what I said earlier."

Li Haiyun's eyes widened: "Yes, but you are obviously very happy to go to the lake with me and enjoy the scenery later."

"I was afraid that if I didn't treat you well, my mother would get angry, and she was just a fool." Seeing this, An Changqing stopped being polite to him, and said the truth: "I was not in a good situation at home when I was young, and you are My mother's nephew and a distinguished guest in the family. I dare not refuse any request you make. I can only compliment and pretend to be happy. In fact, I don't know poetry, and I'm not very good at learning. I just like to read some miscellaneous books. ."

Li Haiyun opened his mouth blankly, staring at him in disbelief.

Seeing this, An Changqing continued: "And my marriage with the King of the Northern War is also of my own accord. I am living a good life now. I have a good relationship with the prince. If you continue to talk nonsense here, I will wait for the prince to come back. to be angry."

Li Haiyun pursed his lips, suddenly squatted on the ground and hugged his head and cried, "Then, the previous ones..."

Before he could finish speaking, An Changqing quickly cut to the chase: "That was all your wishful thinking before." But it doesn't matter to me.

Li Haiyun's eyes and nose were all red, and he choked and choked with sadness: "I know, don't say it anymore. It's all my own sentimental hum..."

An Changqing saw that he was a big man, although he was drunk in a bar, but it was really embarrassing to cry like this, so he wanted to slip away. I was also afraid that Xiao Zhige would be anxious to find him when he left. Angrily, he blamed Xiao Zhige for a while, thinking about what this person did, and he still hasn't come back.

The people around him had already started pointing, An Changqing really didn't want to have anything to do with this cousin, so he looked around, wanting to see if Xiao Zhige was back, but when he looked, he saw a familiar face in the crowd behind him. The tall figure stood there, motionless and silent, like a clay figurine, and he didn't know how long he had been standing there.

An Changqing walked over with a frown, Xiao Zhige realized that it was too late to hide, so he subconsciously hid the lantern behind him. He looked at him deeply.

"What are you doing?" An Changqing held his hand, and felt that his hand was extremely cold, and muttered and complained, "I've been laughed at here for a long time."

While talking, he pulled someone to Li Haiyun, and said to Li Haiyun, who was sad and complaining: "Cousin should forget about those misunderstandings in the past, and don't go out and talk nonsense. I'm on good terms with the lord, you know?"

In the end, the voice became colder and more threatening. Li Haiyun suffered a series of blows this evening, and his mind couldn't react a little, so he let out an "oh". Sniffing his nose, he said, "Cousin, don't worry, I, I won't talk nonsense."

An Changqing then pulled Xiao Zhige away with satisfaction.

Only Li Haiyun stayed where he was in despair. He wiped his tears with his sleeves, got up and wanted to find An Changyu, and asked him to accompany him to drink a few more drinks.

Standing in the dark, Li Haiyun was blown by the cool wind in the night, and when he recalled the cold glance of the Northern War King just now, he shuddered suddenly, and his chaotic mind suddenly woke up.

He remembered the words that An Changyu was instigating in his ears, and then remembered that the other party said "I'll give you the wind", and a cold sweat suddenly broke out behind him. He was not stupid, and quickly understood An Changyu's purpose for doing all this. If it weren't for the fact that cousin Changqing had no intention of him, everything was a misunderstanding, then today... today, I am afraid that they will not end well!

After a burst of coldness came up, Li Haiyun didn't care about Qi Qi, he flicked his sleeves, and strode towards Wangxian Tower.

***

An Changqing dragged Xiao Zhige to the empty alley before turning around to look at him. Xiao Zhige was silent all the way. Obviously it wasn't like this before. Immediately afterwards, he found that the hem of his shoes and clothes were all wet, and there were wet water marks on the ground. He frowned, and seeing Xiao Zhige kept his hands behind his back, he looked behind him: "What's hidden behind him?"

Xiao Zhige pursed his lips and said nothing, An Changqing looked around and saw that he was holding a familiar carp play lotus lantern tightly in his hand.

An Changqing was stunned: "This lamp..." Then he quickly reacted, and said angrily: "Why did you scoop it up? It's not working!"

Xiao Zhige pursed his lips, not knowing where to start or where to ask.

When he thought that An Changqing was wholeheartedly living with him, he accidentally bumped into An Changqing and Li Haiyun pulling and pulling. When he thought that An Changqing still couldn't forget his old relationship, An Changqing dragged him to Li Haiyun and said something inexplicable, and said that he was on good terms with him.

Xiao Zhige's mood rose and fell suddenly, and now that he was caught on the spot, he could only froze and said nothing.

It's a pity that An Changqing is no longer the little boy who is afraid of him. He narrowed his eyes and said fiercely: "You said something happened, just to find the lamp?"

"Did you still peek at the note inside?"

Xiao Zhige: "..."

After a moment of silence, Xiao Zhige still nodded: "I..."

I spit out a word, but I don't know how to continue, so I can only say: "...I want to see it."

An Changqing: "..."

He thought about it for a long time and couldn't figure out why Xiao Zhige did this. Can only be sullen: "Want to see you can't ask me?"

Xiao Zhige looked down at him, and the person in front of him seemed to be very upset that the lantern was not working, his mouth was pouted, and he looked very angry. He was a little regretful, remembering the wish on the lantern, if it really didn't work...

Shaking his head, Xiao Zhige stopped his thoughts and asked in a hoarse voice, "I asked, will you say it?"

"Of course." An Changqing looked at him strangely: "I didn't do anything shameful, so there's nothing I can't say." After speaking, he ran on him in annoyance: "Someone like Wang Ye who secretly goes to find lanterns, Can't say."

Xiao Zhige's face was slightly stiff, and his ears were slightly hot, and then he remembered the scene he just saw, and he couldn't help but ask, "You and Li Haiyun... it's impossible, isn't it?"

"Ah?" An Changqing was stunned by his question, and after a while, he said: "When will I possibly have a relationship with him? Why is Li Haiyun being so affectionate, and you are also messing with it?"

Only then did Xiao Zhige realize that something was wrong, and he questioned, "Aren't you..."

An Changqing interrupted him with a dark face: "I and Li Haiyun are nothing. Don't put me and him together again. I have never liked anyone before."

Xiao Zhige still couldn't believe it, and after a while, he confirmed again: "But the jade pendant he gave you, you always carry it with you..."

"What jade pendant?"

"The Pisces jade pendant you gave me."

An Changqing's face was completely dark this time, and almost every word came out of her teeth: "That's my mother's birthday present, what does it have to do with Li Haiyun?"

Xiao Zhige finally realized that the misunderstanding was a big deal, and his face was stiff and he didn't know how to explain it.

An Changqing was staring at his waist, there was nothing there: "I said why I never saw you wearing it, so you thought it was Li Haiyun's thing?"

"Where's the jade pendant? Did you lose it? Give it back to me!" An Changqing said angrily.

"No." Seeing that he was angry, Xiao Zhige quickly explained: "I didn't lose it, I put it in the study."

Hearing that he didn't lose it, An Changqing finally calmed down a bit and stared at him with wide eyes: "Then tell me, what's going on here? Where did you hear the rumors between me and Li Haiyun?"

Xiao Zhige was so embarrassed by his stare that he had to pull out the culprit who killed him: "It's what Chang Zaichang said."

General Huaihua was always in Chang, and he was one of the twelve generals with him. They were all under the command of Xiahou Shang, the great general of Zhuguo, and Yanzhou and Liangzhou watched and helped each other, so the two had a good relationship. When Chang Zaichang was still in Yejing, Xiao Zhige once asked him to keep an eye on some prime ministers' residences. If An Changqing's mother and son were really struggling, he would help secretly. Chang Zaichang didn't know where he could tell that he was attached to An Changqing, so he kept urging him to bring people to him.

And things about An Changqing and Li Haiyun were naturally passed on to him by Chang Zaichang.

Thinking about it now, these news must have been deliberately slandered by Chang Zaichang in order to provoke him. It's just that Xiao Zhige is not so easily stimulated. These twisted stories didn't help at the time, but they planted disaster for him and caught him off guard.

Xiao Zhige gritted his teeth and secretly wrote down Chang Zaichang's hatred, and then worried about how to coax people.

An Changqing listened with a blank face, and looked at him coldly: "So you always thought that I liked Li Haiyun, and I was flattering you?"

"...Yes." Xiao Zhige nodded, feeling wrong again, and remedied: "It won't be the case later."

An Changqing glared at him, not knowing what to say to him. This man clearly felt that he was thinking about other men, but he didn't show it at all, and even treated him with the same gentleness and smallness as always... Originally, he was still angry, but thinking of this, An Changqing felt distressed again.

From the last life to his death, men were holding the Pisces jade pendant. What was he thinking at that time? Did he think that he liked Li Haiyun until he died, so he was afraid and indifferent to him

An Changqing felt sour in her heart, she clenched her teeth and kicked him: "Why are you so stupid?"

This time it didn't hurt or itch for Xiao Zhige, but when he saw his red eyes, Xiao Zhige felt overwhelmed, cupped his face carefully and said, "It's my fault, it won't happen in the future."

He thought that An Changqing was still angry, and after thinking about it, he took out the note he wrote in the lantern and put it in his palm: "I'll show you mine too. I'll take you to put it again, it won't work."

An Changqing glanced at him, unfolded the note, and saw that it was written in regular small letters: Protect your life.

He has seen Xiao Zhige's words, and the words of men are like people, always in arrogant cursive. The regular regular script was the first time he saw it. Although the words are straightforward, there is seriousness and solemnity between the lines.

An Changqing carefully rolled the note, put it back into the lantern, glanced at him, and hummed, "I won't lose my breath just like this."

Xiao Zhige's eyes darkened: "What else do you want to do? I'll listen to you."

An Changqing raised his head slightly, and said slowly in his nervous eyes: "Then I will punish you... I will put a lantern for me every year from now on."

Xiao Zhige's heart trembled, his fingers clenched suddenly, but a smile appeared on his lips: "Okay. I'll let you go every year."

An Changqing glared at him and pushed him again: "Hurry up and put down the lanterns, your clothes are all wet, and you are not afraid of the cold."

Xiao Zhige took advantage of the situation to hold his hand and walked forward with him: "Let's go and let it go together."

The author has something to say: Well, he looks smart, but he turns out to be a fool.

Cowardly: … (I dare not speak.jpg
