Chapter 9

Han Xu took Xiangxiang with him, because he was too familiar to buy a horse, so he just walked to the checkpoint in hiding.Afraid of Xiangxiang's heat stroke on the way, he even stole watermelons a few times.His saber was used to cut melons, and it didn't violate harmony.Xiangxiang couldn't help laughing: "When General Han stops fighting, he can still sell watermelons."

Han Xu smiled, but gave her the most popular and sweetest parts, saying: "I was born in the market, if I am disarmed and return to the farm, I don't have to worry about making a living."

Xiangxiang ate the melon quietly, and suddenly felt a little envious of him.If he doesn't become a general, he can still hang out in the market and find his own position, and he...

She was in a daze, and Han Xu didn't hear anything for a long time. When he looked down, he saw red juice overflowing from her red lips.

He suddenly couldn't help thinking, those two lips must taste good, right?How does it feel when Murong tastes it between his lips and teeth?But when he thought about it like this, he immediately withdrew his thoughts - that was his boss's woman, what was he thinking about!He also felt that the two of them talked too much during this journey, so he got up immediately and said, "There is not much distance left, let's go."

Xiangxiang followed behind him, it was already dark, and the night breeze cooled down the midsummer.Han Xu walked in the front, because he was not in a hurry anymore, and he didn't want to rush the fragrance.There are lamp posts on the official road with torches stuck on them, but the light is undoubtedly very weak.At this time, there were no pedestrians, and Han Xu's shadow was drawn obliquely and long.Xiangxiang looked at the ground, sometimes stepped on the shadow's head, sometimes stepped on the shadow's shoulder, and was having fun when Han Xu stopped suddenly, and Xiangxiang bumped into his strong and generous back.She covered her nose, Han Xu turned around to surround her, and hid in the grass by the roadside.Xiangxiang didn't know what happened, her head was already lowered by him.Her whole body was wrapped in Han Xu's arms, her nose was full of his breath.Han Xusheng was afraid that she would make a sound, so he made a silent gesture.

A group of officers and soldiers walked slowly by. It turned out that the prince had arranged to patrol the night before the checkpoint.

Xiangxiang was a little worried—Han Xu was alone, with himself, without even a horse.It's hard to get out, right?

The crown prince was also puzzled, he made people keep an eye on the racecourse and post here, but he didn't expect Han Xu to enter the customs on foot like this, and he was going to leave the customs on foot!
And until now, I haven't figured out what Han Xu's intention is to go and come back this time!
Until midnight, everything was quiet.

Fireworks suddenly rose in the night sky, and someone forcibly broke through!This is the time when the checkpoint troops are weakest and vigilant.The visitor quickly broke through the pass, and several horses came galloping.Han Xu hugged Xiangxiang, grabbed the reins of a horse, and got on the horse.Someone fired an arrow in the dark, and Xiangxiang's whole body tensed up, but she kept lying obediently on the horse, for fear of dragging Han Xu down.Han Xu hit his horse vigorously, the bow and arrow whizzed behind him, he drew his knife and turned around to block the arrow.However, there are too many arrows here, so he asked Xiangxiang in a low voice, "If I go down, can you control the horse yourself?"

Xiangxiang's body was stiff, but she still grabbed the rein and whispered, "Yes!"

Han Xu smiled: "Low down, clamp the horse's belly, and run forward as fast as you want. Until someone comes to meet you."

Xiangxiang bit her lip, hearing the sound of sharp arrows whistling, she nodded repeatedly, her body was already covered in sweat.Han Xu turned around to block an arrow, and suddenly jumped off his horse.

Xiangxiang didn't dare to turn her head. In fact, she wanted to ask Han Xu, would he be in danger?But she didn't dare to ask, she knew that she was Han Xu's biggest weakness, as long as she could not drag him down, she was willing to follow his arrangement without hesitation.

Han Xu got off his horse and waved a knife to block the arrows behind her. A large number of horses galloped past. He was sure that Xiangxiang had already rushed out of the pass. Then he turned over and hid under the belly of a horse, and escaped with the horses. The level of thistle trail.

Xiangxiang was lying on the horse's back, her ears were filled with the sound of the wind, her long hair was blown up and flying in the wind.The people in the racecourse have already evacuated, except for the horses that were killed by arrows, they will find their old place after hearing the owner's whistle.

When Han Xu was taken to the racecourse by the horse, he saw that Xiangxiang had been helped off the horse.He breathed a sigh of relief, but Xiangxiang's eyes widened: "Are you injured?"

Han Xu nodded, he got off the horse because he was injured.After all, it is not very convenient to turn around to block the arrow, and the strength of the hand is also limited.

Xiangxiang tore off his clothes anxiously, wanting to see his injuries. The owner of the racecourse next to him gave Han Xu a strange look.Han Xu hurriedly avoided Xiangxiang's hand and said, "Don't worry about a little injury, Mrs. Xiang."

Xiangxiang was startled, and Han Xu introduced with a smile: "This is Ran Yunzhou, the second steward of Prince Xun's residence."

Then Ran Yunzhou bowed down, "I've seen Mrs. Xiang."

Xiangxiang understood why Han Xu avoided her, and she said softly, "Mr. Ran, please get up, you don't need to be polite when you are away from home."

Ran Yunzhou waved his hand, and two girls had already come over, helped Xiangxiang and said, "Madam, please come in and change clothes." Xiangxiang glanced at Han Xu worriedly, and she didn't trust strangers whom she had never met before.

Han Xu smiled at her comfortingly: "Yun Zhou is also the prince's confidant, Madam is at ease."

Xiangxiang then followed the girl into the room, and Ran Yunzhou had already prepared her clothes thoughtfully.She was wearing a vine green long skirt with a fringed shawl with butterflies and peonies on the outside.When Xiangxiang puts it on, you can still smell the faint fragrance of incense on the clothes.The girl helped her to sit down in front of the dressing table, twisted her green silk into a bun, and tied a lace-embedded green emerald head flower on her temple, inserted a peacock silver step, and wore a string of emerald emeralds on her forehead. Hua wins.Dai's eyebrows were swept slightly, and the corners of her eyes were also carefully drawn. Finally, the girl took out her lip balm and asked her to take a sip.Xiangxiang had never dressed herself up like this since she was a child, and she just let her play around like a puppet.

After a long time, the maid was satisfied, and took out the fragrance, and rubbed it on both sides of the pink neck for her.Then put on the earrings with mandarin duck and lotus petals, and the necklace with gold inlaid gemstones and tourmaline dots.

When Xiangxiang came out, both Ran Yunzhou and Han Xu were surprised, and then Ran Yunzhou first said: "The clothes are very suitable."

The veins throbbing on Han Xu's forehead: "The prince is not here, you dress up his woman like this...isn't it good?"

Ran Yunzhou said: "You just pray for God's blessing, the prince can temporarily forget that you disobeyed the military order and acted without authorization when seeing such a lively beauty."

Only then did Han Xu think of the trouble in front of him, and he couldn't help but smiled wryly: "I prayed when I came out."

The group started to rush to Pingduguan. At this time, Xiangxiang's treatment was much better. Not only was the carriage comfortable, but there were also two maids waiting on the way.

Xiangxiang was restless, Ran Yunzhou was outside the car and said, "Mrs. Xiang, have you rested yet?"

Xiangxiang hurriedly raised the curtains of the carriage: "Not yet, what's the matter, sir?"

Ran Yunzhou said: "General Han entered the pass to rescue Madam this time, and in the future he will have time to obtain military orders from the prince. After returning, there will be a punishment. At that time... Madam please give me a good word."

Xiangxiang was stunned, and asked in a low voice: "Will it... be serious?" So saving me requires a lot of guilt?She glanced at Han Xu, perhaps to avoid suspicion, Han Xu was far away from the carriage.

Ran Yunzhou said: "Madam knows the prince's temper."

Xiangxiang bit her lip and said softly, "I...I will try my best." But what use will my words have to him?
Ran Yunzhou nodded: "Your Madam."

There was no words all the way, and it was already seven days before I returned to Pingdu Pass.No news came from Jinyang City yet, Murong Bo didn't intend to wait any longer, and was about to send his troops north to Jinyang.

There is a huge difference in temperature between morning and evening in Pingduguan. During the day it is still sunny, but at night it is already as cold as a knife.Xiangxiang was helped out of the carriage, and immediately a girl put on a light white fur for her. The soft fluff wrapped around her neck warmly, but it set off her skin like jade.Xiangxiang was led forward by the soldiers, and saw that there were many spears and halberds on both sides.The soldiers' iron clothes were cold, and their weapons were leaning on the ground, with awe-inspiring fighting spirit.Murong Bo and Murong Li stood on the general platform in front of the army. Seeing Han Xu and his party approaching, Murong Li's gaze rested on Xiangxiang for a while, and then he said in a deep voice, "Han Xu!"

When Han Xu came out, Murong Li said coldly: "Going without orders is a violation of our military regulations. If you drag them out, you will be killed with a stick in front of the army."

As soon as this order came out, all the generals knelt down with a cry: "Prince Xun, please remember that General Han has fought for many years, so that he will not die, and let him take the blame and make meritorious service!"

Murong Li didn't speak, some soldiers dragged Han Xu out and stripped off his coat.Han Xu gritted his teeth and didn't say a word. The military stick hit him on the back. He groaned, his figure swayed slightly, and finally stood firm again.

It was only at this time that Xiangxiang understood what the so-called death with a stick in front of the army meant.She was dumbfounded.

Han Xu had unhealed arrow wounds, but after a few sticks, the wounds were already soaked in blood, and his clothes were soaked.Ran Yunzhou kept looking at Xiangxiang, and finally even showed a begging look.

Xiangxiang's eyes were full of tears, she turned around, faced Murong Li, and said softly, "Prince Xun, whoever came to save me, deserve to die?"

Murong Li's complexion has darkened, and Xiangxiang's tears are as bright as pearls, falling in the wind on his pale and bloodless cheeks: "Prince Xun, in fact, even if a person like me digs his heart and lungs, he will use a cavity of blood to treat you." , it's not worth it in the end, my lord, you look back, right?"

Murong Li's face was livid, and he shouted angrily: "Get out!"

Xiangxiang sobbed, turned around and walked out of the barracks, Murong Li was furious - I told you to get the fuck out, how dare you get out!He took a few steps forward, grasped Xiangxiang's wrist, and raised his right hand. He wanted to slap it down, but found that it was a woman in his hand, so he couldn't slap her, and shouted angrily, "Go back to the tent!"

Xiangxiang raised her head, tears streaming down her face, under the cold moon at the border, the beauty wept like beads, her face was absolutely beautiful.Murong Li thought of her who had chased after his horse for two steps that day, so he pulled her roughly, returned to the big tent in two or three steps, and threw him into his tent.Before leaving, he glanced at Murong Bo, and Murong Bo understood.As soon as he left, he said: "Although General Han violated the military order, he has made great contributions to saving people after all. I also thought that he was wounded, so I changed it to fifty rods. Please note the guilt. If you commit the crime again, you will be punished for both crimes!"

Ran Yunzhou and Han Xu looked at each other, and both heaved a sigh of relief.Fortunately, I thought that at least two hundred army sticks would not be able to run away, and only fifty sticks was considered a profit.

There is a desert outside Pingdu Pass. The ice water melted from the snow-capped mountains in the north flows through here, making an oasis grow on the desert. After a long time, the oasis becomes a city, named Mayi.The fruit here is smaller than elsewhere, but very sweet.

Murong Bo said softly to Princess Su Jing: "Send some fruit over there, I think Lao Wu's woman is really heartbroken. Lao Wu's personality, I'm afraid it can't be coaxed well." Su Jing understood and washed some fruits Bring it to Murong Li's tent, afraid of bumping into something that shouldn't be seen, let the personal guards in front of the tent go in and report.When they entered, Murong Li had put away his anger, and Xiangxiang's eyes were still filled with tears. Su Jing smiled and said, "Fifth brother, your elder brother asked you to go over."

Murong Li took a look at Xiangxiang, turned and left with a livid face.

Su Jing sat down beside Xiangxiang and asked, "Still annoying him?"

Xiangxiang pressed her eyes lightly with a scented handkerchief, and bowed to Su Jing: "See Princess Wang."

Su Jing supported her: "What kind of courtesy is there at this time. The fruit here is sweeter than other places, you must try this bonus. Mayicheng's flower red fruit is famous far and wide." Pass over the fruit.Xiangxiang had to pick it up, and still said softly: "Thank you, Princess Wang."

Su Jing sat down at the table with her, and sighed: "Xiangxiang, don't blame him."

Xiangxiang lowered her head: "I understand, I don't blame him. But Han Xu..."

Su Jing smiled slightly: "He didn't really want to beat Han Xu to death, nor did he really blame Han Xu. But Han Xu disobeyed his military order and acted privately, so he always put on a show. It's you, you are his." My concubine, the little princess's mother. In any case, you can't say that about him in front of his subordinates."

Xiangxiang is not an eloquent person, she lowered her head and did not speak

Su Jing patted her on the shoulder lightly: "Lao Wu is not an impulsive person. Although he has a bad temper, he has a sense of proportion. You don't have to worry."

Xiangxiang asked, "Is Han Xu all right?"

Su Jing said: "It's been fine for fifty years. For them, sticking is a common thing, and it's nothing."

Xiangxiang nodded, she actually understood Su Jing's reason for coming, so she said softly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I understand my identity."

Su Jing glanced at her with a smile. In fact, in her heart, she liked this girl a little bit. She was different from her natal sisters, and also different from Murong Bo's concubines in Kang Wang's mansion.She smiled and said: "You also have a daughter, work harder, give birth to a little prince, maybe fifth brother can help you to be a side concubine."

Xiangxiang also smiled, but said, "No, my daughter is fine. I like my daughter."

Su Jing smiled, and suddenly asked: "There is only one person in the house, how does it feel?"

Xiangxiang was stunned, and turned to look at her.Su Jing said: "It must be very good, right? I heard that the fifth child thought you gave birth to a boy, so he asked where the little son was as soon as he opened his mouth. He thought that your child would be his only child." But sincerely.It's nice to be alone, and you don't have to worry about who will give birth to a son, and whose child will become a threat to your own child in the future.Whose father and brother were reused by the king?Who caught your husband's attention again?Whose room is he sleeping in tonight?Think about it this way, where does this woman need comfort?I'm the one who really needs to be comforted.

She stood up and said again: "Xiangxiang, you are actually the happy person." Then she got up and walked out, Xiangxiang got up to see her off, and she didn't know why she was suddenly sad.The lonely and elegant princess was still smiling gently, but there were tears in her eyes.

Xiangxiang sent her to the door of the tent, and suddenly said: "At least he has you in his heart." Su Jing was stunned, Xiangxiang smiled, saluted her again, and returned to Murong Li's tent.Even if there is only one woman by his side, it's not because of me.

Han Xufu was lying in the tent, in fact, fifty army sticks are nothing, Murong Li always fights in units of hundreds.Murong Bo was merciful.But he was injured, and Murong Li said to fight, no one dared to favor others no matter how strong the relationship in the camp was, the fifty sticks were real.Although it is not impossible to move at this moment, but it is true that I dare not move.Seeing that there is going to be a war with the crown prince, it would be a disadvantage if he had an old wound.Suddenly thinking of that girl again, facing Murong Li, he said: "Actually, even if a person like me digs out his heart and blood, it's not worth it in the end. My lord, you look back?" How stupid, I hope I don't irritate him by saying something stupid again.Then I thought, um, the clothes Ran Yunzhou picked out for her are really pretty, but I don't know if it's the clothes or the person who wears them.

Just as he was thinking, the curtain was lifted slightly by someone. Han Xu took a look, and his hair stood on end: "Xiang... madam? Why are you here!" Then remembering his current situation, he hurriedly said, "Don't come in! "He has an injury on his back, and he is not wearing any clothes at this time!"Lie naked on the couch with only a thin quilt covered.

Of course Xiangxiang would not go in, she stood at the door of the tent and asked softly, "Are you okay?"

Han Xu reached out to touch his clothes, but it was dark all around, Ran Yunzhou didn't know where to throw his robes!He said anxiously: "I'm fine! I'm full of energy! Don't come in!"

Xiangxiang said: "Well, I won't come in." Going in at this time and being seen by others is not good for her or Han Xu, right?

Han Xu breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "What's the matter?" Then he screamed, "You won't offend him again, will you?"

Xiangxiang said: "I will not offend the prince." I still have a daughter, I want to go back to pick her up, I will not offend Murong Li.

Han Xu said: "That's good. You go back, if he doesn't see you in a while, he's going to lose his temper again."

Xiangxiang hummed, bent slightly, and put a box of ointment on the ground: "The trauma medicine that is commonly used in our hometown is very useful, try it."

Han Xu was slightly startled, and smiled for a long time and said, "Thank you."

Xiangxiang said, "You're welcome. I should thank you."

The two were speechless, she turned and left.

The curtain was put down like that, and a cool breeze swept across his cheeks slightly.Han Xu felt a strange emotion sweeping through his heart, she...should have left, right?He got up, finally found his robe, put it on indiscriminately, and walked to the door.The ointment was packed in a small transparent bottle, which was green in color and smelled lightly, with a faint fragrance.Holding the small medicine bottle in his hand, he opened the curtain, only to see the wind clear and the moon white.

When Murong Li came back, Xiangxiang had already fallen asleep.The tiger skin mattress he used in his tent, the soft fur lined her face, making it more delicate and warm.Murong Li didn't really appreciate the beauty of women. He never thought it made any difference what kind of clothes a woman wore or what kind of hairstyle she wore. He just thought that this woman's face was like the most tender tofu brain, which could be broken by blowing a bomb.He hugged Xiangxiang and covered her with his whole body.Xiangxiang was awakened, the candlelight was faint, Murong Li took off his robe, his pupils were bathed in fire, he kissed him, the delicate skin was held in the rough palm, Xiangxiang closed his eyes, a tear slipped into the cloud-like eyes Qingsili.

Murong Li's affairs in the house have always been simple and rough, most of the time he likes to bury his head and do it recklessly, but tonight he is a little gentler, he is actually very good at playing, the young man who grew up in the brocade, what tricks has he never tried?It's just that these extravagances were gradually cut off later, and after being with Xiangxiang, they mostly satisfied their own needs, and tonight was somewhat apologetic.A person like him can't be expected to bow his head and admit his mistakes. I'm sorry, it's shameful to think about it, and he can't say it.

Xiangxiang couldn't bear him to play with, and soon trembled slightly.Murong Li had been out of battle for a long time, but soon regained his old skills, Xiang Xiang couldn't help crying out, and then she covered her cherry lips in panic.Murong Li grabbed her hand and pressed it on top of her head without any scruples.

Next door is Murong Bo's tent, Murong Bo was talking to Su Jing, hearing the voice, both of them blushed.Between husband and wife, it's not too embarrassing, Murong Bo smiled: "It's not that the fifth child doesn't know how to coax people at all." Su Jing covered her mouth and snickered, Murong Bo pulled her over, hugged her, and held her hand. Hand said: "This journey, thank you for your hard work." Su Jing's cheeks gradually turned pink, the husband and wife watched silently, and finally kissed slowly.

The next day, Xiangxiang took her clothes and went out to wash them.Not far from the camp, there is a river, which is a stream formed by snow water, with a clear bottom.Xiangxiang untied her hair tie, let her long hair spread out, and found a good place to wash her hair.

Han Xu and Zhou Zhuo talked while walking: "If you can move, help me take those grandchildren for a [-]-mile run tomorrow morning. After many days of idleness, grass is about to grow."

Zhou Zhuo asked, "Aren't you going by yourself?"

Han Xu said: "I'm recovering from my injuries. If there is a real fight, it's better to be better."

Zhou Zhuo frowned: "Is it really hurt?" He was about to come over to strip Han Xu's clothes, but Han Xu hurriedly pushed them away: "Go away, only women can take off my clothes!"

Zhou Zhuo stretched out his demonic claws with an evil and charming look: "Stop pretending, Ran Yunzhou helped you take it off last night, right? Hehehe, little beauty Han Xu, your virginity is long gone..." The two were talking Then, when she turned her head, she saw Xiangxiang who was washing her hair.

Han Xu's face turned green, and Zhou Zhuo's outstretched hand grabbing the X dragon claw immediately turned into patting the ashes on his shoulders, and then said with an expression more upright than a trident: "Isn't it just morning training? You and my brother Same, whatever matters, leave it to me." Then she turned and smiled at Xiangxiang: "Mrs. Xiang, what a coincidence."

With an embarrassed expression on Xiangxiang's face, Zhou Zhuo coughed dryly: "I suddenly remembered that there is still something to do in that camp, so I'm leaving first..."

He is not very willing to provoke Xiangxiang. After all, he is Murong Li's concubine now, and even gave birth to a daughter. He wants to suddenly remember the old account of Yilu Mountain one day, and blow some wind casually, so that he can also be punished. Oh no.This guy Han Xu is smart, he shot back to save her life, resolved the grievances of the day, and he is still hanging.Even though he had a father like Zhou Taiwei, Murong Li was still beaten up when he became angry.He turned around and left. Han Xu stood still and said for a long time, "The sand and stones by the river are not stable, be careful of slippery."

Xiangxiang hummed lightly, Han Xu was a little uncomfortable, why the hell did it seem like there was something between us!He turned around and took two steps, and suddenly said: "I will go back to save you that day, in fact, it is because the prince really has this intention. I..."

Xiangxiang washed her hair, her long hair was soaked in water and formed into small strands, black and shiny."I know," she said softly, kneeling in the sand, slowly pouring water over her hair.

Han Xu walked over suddenly, scooped up a large basin of water from her wooden basin, and put it aside: "Wash here!"

Xiangxiang was slightly taken aback, and said, "Thank you.

Han Xu stood by the river with a fertile face, listening to the pleasant sound of water with her long hair.Xiangxiang was washing her hair in the tub, and Han Xu's back was swaying faintly in the reflection of the river.Xiangxiang asked in a low voice, "Is the medicine easy to use?"

Han Xu was taken aback for a moment, and said, "It's very useful." It's an earthen medicine, and it's especially effective in coagulating blood and promoting muscle growth.

Xiangxiang groaned: "That's good."

After washing his face, Han Xu got up and said, "Take care of him."

Xiangxiang lowered her head: "I will."

Han Xu got up and left.

It turned out that it was not without sadness.

For what reason do we fall in love with someone?

How do we distinguish whether it is love or shallow liking?
Xiangxiang doesn't know, but looking at Han Xu, there will be a secret joy in her heart.Maybe it was when he mixed honey into her medicine bowl.Those five fingers are slender, holding a white porcelain spoon, gently stirring the concoction.Or maybe it was his faint figure reflected on the thin paper behind the door after getting drunk that night, under the faint moonlight?Xiangxiang couldn't tell.

She had a fiancé-in-law who could be called a childhood sweetheart, and the two of them often played together since they were young.She knew she would marry him one day, but he was just like her brother.Later he abandoned her. Although she was embarrassed, she was not in pain.

She has a husband with whom she has to follow her whole life.He shared the bed with her, had sex with each other, and he could also please her body.But she knew that it was someone who would never see her in his eyes.He thought in his heart that he would always be that white moonlight back then.

Now, there was another shadow in the corner of her heart.This man won't even fall in love with her!Maybe everything he did was just because of her identity.If this battle is successful, he will be in the prominent position, and he will have a beautiful wife and concubines for him to choose from.If he loses this battle, as a rebel general, he should be punished for treason and punished by everyone in his family.No matter what the ending is, it is a future that has nothing to do with her.

But what does that matter?I am just attached to that little bit of warmth in my heart, that star, the glow that makes people feel happy.As for the future... How much love in this world has a future? ...How determined you must be before you dare to speak about the future...

Murong Bo and Murong Li mobilized troops, and now the west of Daji City is occupied by Murong Li's army, and the east is still the prince's forces.There has been no news of King Yan in Jinyang. If anyone acts rashly, a civil war is imminent.

Murong Li was training the army every day, and he had read the topographic map of Jinyang City countless times. Murong Bo was in charge of the preparation and dispatch of military rations and ordnance.The two have always cooperated well.In the evening, Murong Li, Murong Bo and others often had meals with the generals in the army.

In the border town of thousands of miles of yellow sand, the cold moon is like a hook.

A bonfire was lit in the camp, and the generals drank wine around the fire, and a golden whole lamb was roasted on the grill.The oil juice dripped into the fire, making a chugging sound.Some soldiers sprinkled cumin on the mutton, and the aroma permeated the camp, making people salivate.

Murong Bo sat at the main seat, and Su Jing sat beside him.Xiangxiang was sitting next to Murong Li, and of course she was not qualified according to her status, but the problem is that there is no woman here who is more qualified to sit beside Murong Li.Xiangxiang knew that she was going to eat barbecue today, so she adjusted the sauce early on, cut it with a flower knife, spread the sauce evenly on the lamb leg, and marinated it.She likes to cook by herself, anyway, she has nothing to do when she is idle.

At this time, she brought out the marinated lamb legs, skewered them with a fork, and brushed them with honey while roasting.Murong Li and the others didn't have such a leisurely mind. They were drinking and cutting cumin mutton with a small silver knife.

The fragrance is roasted for a while, the honey is colored, and the whole leg of lamb presents a golden and translucent color.Han Xu didn't know what was wrong with him, he always looked at her consciously or unconsciously, and saw her brushing the sauce with plain hands by the warm fire, with indescribable patience and meticulousness.The clothes Ran Yunzhou prepared for her were all extremely gorgeous.However, no matter how valuable the pearls and emeralds are, they are still not as good as the moment when the gnat's head is lowered, a strand of blue hair slantingly caresses the pink cheek.

Xiangxiang raised her head by chance and met his gaze unexpectedly. Han Xu's heart was burning, and he suddenly looked away, drank some wine, and turned his head to talk to Zhou Zhuo.

Xiangxiang's face was flushed and her heart was beating. Was he just now looking at himself?She cut open the roasted yellow and oily lamb leg with a small silver knife, and handed a portion to Murong Li.Murong Li didn't care, Han Xu was beside Xiangxiang.She cut another plate carefully, pursed her lips, and handed it to him beside him.Han Xu hurried to pick it up, and his fingertips touched hers slightly.The two were startled, and then both retracted their hands as if nothing had happened.

The meat was really well grilled and well cut, not thin slices but small pieces.When the mutton was marinated, some wine was added, and it was not smelly at all. One bite was full of sweet honey, and the mutton was waxy.Han Xu tasted it slowly and gave him an appreciative look. Xiangxiang raised her head slightly and smiled at him.

Han Xu couldn't help but smile back, the sweetness in his mouth melted away, and there was sourness in his heart.Such a woman, even if she marries a poor family, she must be able to live well, right?A real beauty doesn't need pearls to show off her body, she has her own smile to cleanse the dust, and her heart is full of flowers.It turned out that the woman I had been looking forward to and admiring in Jinyang City back then was not in the poetry. After many years, she appeared in front of me with a charming smile.

Xiangxiang lowered her head, forked a small piece of mutton with a small silver knife, slightly parted her red lips, and put it in her mouth.Murong Li didn't look at her, he was talking to his imperial brother for some unknown reason, at the tip of the flames, it seemed that the world was twisting and shaking.Xiangxiang didn't know what they said, but the people around her tasted her craftsmanship and admired it.She is delighted.

She was too close to the bonfire, and her cheeks had a kind of bright pink. Han Xu really wanted to reach out and touch it, to see if a piece of pollen would be wiped off as soon as he stretched out his hand.

No...it's too dangerous.he can not.

He wanted to get up and go anywhere, at least get out of here.Don't smell her milky and flowery fragrance anymore, don't hear her voice anymore, don't see her smile anymore, and don't be confused by the astonishing radiance on her face anymore.But he just sat like this, so he would be reluctant to part with it.Why...why do you love someone so much?Obviously nothing happened.

He took a deep breath, and the aroma of wine and meat that filled his nostrils could not make people happy.

Xiangxiang got up and left before him. After brushing her flesh for a long time, she wanted to go out to wash her hands, but the hem of the beautifully embroidered skirt brushed the back of his hand slightly.

How terrifying, she had already gone away, but the long hair and the soft skirts were flying in his mind so wildly, lingering.Why are men and women attracted to each other?This vast sea of ​​people has been read by thousands of sails, why are you so nostalgic for no reason?I was born in the market, seeking fame, wealth, everything that can make me rich and comfortable.I am sad for what I lose, and I am happy for what I gain. My sorrow and joy were once so vivid.

Why can you dominate them with just one look?Let me chase you with all my heart and soul, sad because you are gone, happy because you are here?

Murong Li didn't take a look in the direction where Xiangxiang left, maybe he never felt the difference between whether this woman was present or not.It was the first time in Han Xu's life that he envied him. He thought that things in this world could always be obtained as long as he worked hard.But there are some things you can't get, and never will get.

Like her.

Han Xu felt that he must be drunk. He suddenly wanted a woman very much. He could marry her and go home. bend.Go back this time, if the head is still there, marry a woman.he thinks.No, really can't think anymore.He drank silently, turned his head inadvertently, but saw the small silver knife in her plate again.Thinking of Na Su holding a knife in his hand, gently cutting golden pieces of meat piece by piece.God, why are you still thinking about her?
He stretched out his hand out of nowhere and held the small silver knife in his hand.

So bewitched.

Ran Yunzhou has been breeding war horses for Dayan for many years. His father is from Hu and his mother is from Yan, but Murong Li thinks highly of him and often entrusts him with important tasks.At this time, he sat next to Han Xu and patted him on the shoulder: "Come, drink."

Han Xu didn't refuse, poured wine out of a bowl, followed him to touch the rim of the bowl, and drank it down with his head raised.Ran Yunzhou drank a few more bowls with him, and then put his arms around him: "There is a nice girl in Mayi City, do you want to go and see her?"

Han Xu was drunk: "Go, call Zhou Zhuo and Yan Qing."

The four of them left the barracks together, this place was originally outside Mayi City, and it only took more than a quarter of an hour to ride back and forth on horseback.Han Xu was riding on the horse, and was sobered up by the wind.

Ran Yunzhou walked side by side with him and asked, "Are you sober?"

Han Xu wiped his face and snorted coldly: "How much is this? I'm not drunk at all!"

Ran Yunzhou said lightly: "I think you are quite drunk!"

Han Xu was startled, and when he turned to look at him, he didn't say anything.

The relationship between Han Xu and Ran Yunzhou is different from that of Zhou Zhuo and others.At the beginning when Ran Yunzhou was living in Jinyang City, because Dayan and Donghu were not getting along well, he was born with sunken eyes and a high nose. He was of Hu blood at first glance. No one wanted to hire him.

Han Xu was just one of Murong Li's personal guards at the time, seeing that he could recognize horses, he introduced him to Guan Jue.Guan Jue knew that Murong Li was a horse lover, so he recommended him to Murong Li.Murong Li had a conversation with him, and casually bought him a horse farm in Pingdu Pass.The day he left, he was penniless, but it was hard to tell Guan Jue.With Murong Li's temper, of course he wouldn't notice these things.Being in distress, Han Xu was careful and gave him a tael of silver as money.

Ran Yunzhou forcibly expanded the racecourse, and most of Dayan's war horses came from here.He is now a prosperous man, walking in Pingdu Pass, who can nod his head and bow his head and call out Lord Ran?However, when Han Xu was treated, he was always friendly.

Several people entered Mayi City all the way, the city gate was closed, Murong Li was there, and the city gatekeeper dared not open the city gate without authorization.But they were able to climb over the wall. The guards hung a rope from the city wall, and they climbed up the wall in the blink of an eye.

Mayi City is a border city with heavy wind and sand. Of course it is not as prosperous as Jinyang City, but it also has its own characteristics.It was already late at this time, only the Yingyue Pavilion still had pink lanterns hanging high.When Han Xu and others walked in, there was a local tyrant Ran Yunzhou, and everyone was welcome!

Someone was playing a harp inside, and the women with heavy makeup wore veils woven with gold threads, and their delicate bodies were covered under thin gauze clothes.The fireplace was burning extremely well, and there was a sweet aroma in the air.

As soon as Ran Yunzhou came in, someone greeted him immediately.Several people were brought into a private room, and the proprietress soon brought a few girls over with a big smile on her face.Zhou Zhuo and Yan Qing chose one each, and Ran Yunzhou was looking at Han Xu, who frowned.Ran Yunzhou smiled, and asked the proprietress: "Is there any one from a good family?"

The proprietress immediately covered her mouth with a smile, and gave him a wink and went out. After a while, she really led a girl in.No make-up, a fair and clean girl, with her head bowed and her hands clasped, she seemed a bit shy.Ran Yunzhou smiled and beckoned, "Come here and accompany Mr. Han."

The girl was slightly startled, she moved her lotus steps lightly to Han Xu's side, and sat down hesitantly.Han Xu turned to look at her, she lowered her head and poured wine for him: "Master Han, please use."

Zhou Zhuo took a look and pointed at the girl: "Yunniang, what do you mean! Why is that so beautiful?"

The proprietress was Yun Niang, she was startled when she heard the words, then smiled again: "Master Zhou, that's a young lady who hasn't met yet..."

Zhou Zhuo immediately became angry: "Are you afraid that I won't be able to pay the money?"

Yunniang knew that these people should not be offended, so she could only apologize repeatedly, and secretly wondered that people like them had been known for a long time, and their taste was the most vulgar.The more coquettish a woman is, the more delicious she is.Why did you suddenly like Liangjia Fan today...

Zhou Zhuo was still angry, over there Han Xu said softly, "What are you shouting about, I'll trade with you?"

Satisfied now, Zhou Zhuo pushed the woman beside him to Han Xu's side, and Ran Yunzhou sighed imperceptibly.Han Xu drank with the heavily made-up woman, glass after glass.The woman gently rubbed his strong body, and he turned slightly sideways.No, none of them were that woman, nor were they similar.

No one can tell what love is like, but when love exists, that person...

She is like no other.
