Chapter 64

The youthful voice has faded away, and it is no longer the same as it was ten years ago. In Su Yan's mind, there is still the figure of the weak crowned boy.

"Changle Wang Yuan came from Monan. The soldiers had a hard journey. They lived in the deep palace and could not be loyal to the country. Today is my heart, and I hope the general will fulfill it." Three points of girly sweetness, seven points of charming and touching , the king of Changle did not change his face, just glanced at the sedan chair, and asked without getting off the horse, "Dare to ask the young master's name, with such a mind, I will let the king express his gratitude for the soldiers in the future."

"It doesn't matter what the name is, it's just the same intention." Su Yan walked around without saying a word, and the Changle King naturally understood, immediately waved his silver whip, and rode his horse forward. , went straight to the inner city.

"General, the person sitting in that sedan chair is just a doll, why teach us to salute her!" Zhou Bei stiffened his neck, not convinced.

The King of Changle stared directly at the golden palace in the distance, then turned his head, and thousands of lights streamed through his eyes, "The emperor is superior and the minister is inferior, the ruler wants the minister to die, and the minister has to die. There are some truths that you will never understand on the battlefield."

"I only know that the brothers were all made from the dead. They have endured knives and gnawed bark. General, I still remember that the battle last year lasted for five months. Lao Li and his son went to the battlefield together. When I finally came out, I only brought back an arm for her mother-in-law, as well as generals Wu and Wei Jun, a total of [-] soldiers died... But when we were desperate, what were they doing?! Singing and dancing, drinking play with women!"

Zhou Bei's eyes were flushed, and finally he was speechless. That rough appearance was so incompatible with the prosperity of the capital.

"Brother Huang is the son of heaven, and this picturesque country belongs to him." King Changle cut off his words, Zhou Bei held back his anger, kicked the saddle hard, and stepped back without saying a word.

The scouts came to report that in the phoenix sedan chair was the most favored Mrs. Su, Yanrui's wife. Along the way, some soldiers had seen many women from the capital city. Their skin was fresh and their faces were like peach blossoms. They were far from the rough women in the frontier. can be compared.

When he heard that the woman in front of him was the emperor's woman, he couldn't help but recall that crisp voice, and his heart itched unbearably.

The King of Changle said, "Brothers have suffered for so many years. Since you come to Beijing, you can also enjoy the blessings at the feet of the emperor. It's just that the military discipline is strict, and looting and looting are prohibited."

Zhou Bei's face became tense, and the soldiers bowed their heads in silence, but saw his sharp lips slightly raised, provoking a wild smile, like a male leopard looking for food on the grassland, "Besides, the beauties in the capital Son, there is no limit to the fine wines from the winery, you can enjoy them as much as you want!"

Zhou Bei took the lead in shouting, and there was a series of echoes one after another, which lasted for a long time.

But it is said that Su Yan and her party went back to the house to visit relatives, and Mrs. Zhao, as the mistress, led a group of family members to meet her outside the door.

When Su Yan got out of the sedan chair, she saw relatives from all ethnic groups respecting Youjia, and the scene was grand, but the original family relationship gradually faded, and was forcibly divided by the so-called distinction of superiority and inferiority.

Mrs. Zhao looked at her daughter, who was as dazzling as clouds, covered in beautiful clothes, and became more and more beautiful when she came to the ground, which made the whole courtyard look pale.

He also knew that she was deeply favored now, so he secretly comforted him, held back his lovesickness, and still led her into the hall several times.

Su Yan raised her eyes and saw that there were quite a few masters and servants, kneeling on the ground neatly, and remembering that only her father was not there, she raised her sleeves and wiped the corners of her eyes slightly.

That Mrs. Zhao couldn't bear it any longer, sobbed loudly in the hall, the whole family covered their faces, and the atmosphere of sadness permeated for a while.

"Mother, don't cry, my daughter finally got to go home, and we don't know when we will see each other next time, let's be happy."

Seeing that her daughter was sensible, Mrs. Zhao bowed again, "My wife thanked the young master for your kindness on behalf of the master..."

"Mother, I am always the daughter of you and my father. I am already walking on thin ice in the harem. In the past few days at home, teach me to live a few more days of peace of mind. All etiquette, don't be too much, we will be as usual it is good."

Wen's brought Su Zhi forward, "I have seen Madam."

Su Zhiyuan opened her watery eyes, and happily called her elder sister, but Wen's hurriedly reprimanded her, but Su Yan led her over and spoke softly.

Today, the younger sister of the Su family is nearly thirteen years old, and she is carrying cardamom, she will be a top-notch beauty in a few days.

The restraint at the beginning gradually dissipated, and the courtyard became lively, with a grand family banquet full of beautiful things to see, Su Zhi and Zhao Shi accompanied by one left and one right, it was very happy.

Su Yan then comforted, "I think it's just a delay in the journey, mother don't need to worry, His Majesty has sent people to expedite the investigation, father will be able to return home soon."

Sure enough, Su Yan's words were like a reassurance pill engraved with the token of the Son of Heaven, and then everyone echoed, sweeping away the haze.

Sitting in front of the window sill, the sky full of stars is reflected in the green pool in the courtyard, the night in Su Mansion is so clean and peaceful.

"Brother Wenyuan, you haven't come to see Zhi'er for a long time, let me show you the vine grass we bought last time..."

Su Zhi's voice came faintly through the moonlight, but Su Yan put the paper into her arms, glanced at the bedroom, and extinguished the candle.

"I have something to do today, how about another day?"

After a long time, Su Zhi's voice gradually faded away, "Zhi'er understands that you already have someone in your heart, and you didn't come to see me today, don't you even care about admiring the flowers with me for a while..."

Su Yan walked out slowly from the darkness, Ning Wenyuan was obviously taken aback, but saw that she was wearing a long robe and a green crown on her head, dressed like a man.

"But you want me to secretly take you out again?" He sighed helplessly, and Su Yan cupped her hands and said, "Brother Lao Ning is here."

Looking at her jade-like little face, although the eyebrows are thickened, they add to the beauty.

Su Yan always followed closely behind, and the distance between the two of them was always not too close or far. Although the childhood sweetheart had already entered the palace with Su Yan, and it had become a thing of the past, but because of the transgression of the taboo last time, Su Yu Yan always felt that the relationship had changed quietly.

So I didn't dare to get too close to him.

On the grounds that he went to Peach Blossom Temple in the south of the city to pray for his father, Ning Wenyuan did not stop him. With his skill, he could easily avoid the guards outside the mansion.

Turning around a few alleys, the Peach Blossom Temple stood in front of her eyes. Su Yan lowered her head and saw the hands of the two were tightly holding each other. She wanted to withdraw, but Ning Wenyuan only shook hands lightly, and said, "I never ask you No matter what plan you make, I will do my best to help you, as the same sentence, be careful, go."

People passed by Taohuaguan one after another at night, Su Yan lowered her head and cautiously searched for a wooden pavilion next to the main hall.

She glanced left and right, then faced the moonlight, and followed the patterns left by Qingmin one by one.

After going around a few times, I stopped in a courtyard that looked like a wing room. Apart from the empty house, there was nothing else but a dry well.

Surrounded by silence, she slowly walked towards the ancient well, the moss on the edge of the well glowed with dark green light.

Everything unknown was ahead, but the moment her fingers touched the stone bricks, a force suddenly hit her back, followed by a pain in her shoulder, and she was turned around.

"Take it out." Under the moonlight, the person in front of him was Duan Zhaoye, King of Changle.

Looking at his mature and resolute face, Su Yan found it difficult to connect with the fair and handsome little prince ten years ago.

"I'm just here to find friends at the Taoist temple. I don't know if this brother is going to rob me of my money?" Su Yan made jokes to cover up her panic. Why did King Changle come straight to the Taoist temple when he returned to Beijing?

So many coincidences can only explain one problem, that is, they are all looking for the same thing - the former emperor's secret edict.

Duan Zhaoye pushed her in slowly, pressing her frail body to the side of the well platform, Su Yan let go suddenly, and the piece of paper fell straight into the deep well water.

Duan Zhaoye's complexion sank, and he was about to salvage it with a whip, but Su Yan pretended to sigh, "My new article has been swung like this, the rice paper will melt when it meets water, even if it is salvaged, the ink stains will have already fainted. , the words are hard to read, what a pity!"

"Who are you from?" He quickly restrained his anger, still holding her wrist tightly.

Su Yan forced a smile, "I, don't be frightened when you say it."

Duan Zhaoye locked his eyes on the thin man in front of him, saw her cheeks were radiant when she smiled, and heard her whisper, "I am the person next to King Changle..."

The two people's eyes met, and they didn't want to give in to each other. Su Yan felt his shackles gradually fade away. Just as she was about to retreat, Duan Zhaoye made a sudden move, pulling off the hairpin of her crown and freed the other one. Hand clasped her chin.

Under the full sky and moonlight, the black hair poured down like a waterfall, winding alluringly to the waist, Duan Zhaoye bullied him step by step, Su Yan turned her head, and saw her own appearance from the well water, and the slightly surprised eyes of the people behind her.

But Duan Zhaoye concealed it very well, there was only a slight change, and he was calm again.

His rough fingertips swayed her delicate cheeks, very aggressive, "The girl just said that she wants to be the king of Changle?"

Seeing that he didn't want to reveal his identity, Su Yan acted aggressively, "Of course I'm someone close to King Changle. Now that he's in the capital, the people in the capital, as well as you and me, aren't they all around him?"

"Cunning woman." As soon as he let go of his hand, he was about to push her into the well. Su Yan pressed against the edge of the well tightly, and her moist lips were pursed into a thin slit.

Beads of sweat dripped down his forehead.

At the moment of this stalemate, Su Yan suddenly heard a noisy sound coming from the main hall, and Su Yan shouted roughly, "Brother Wang, I am here!"

Duan Zhaoye let go after hearing this, but Su Yan quickly tied up her hair, and quickly walked out of the stone gate.

He stood still in place, staring at the figure, turned his palm over, and a jade pendant with blue patterns appeared in front of him, with the word "Su" clearly engraved on it.

Originally scheduled as a four-day family visit, unexpectedly, an accident happened on the second day.

An imperial decree came, and the Zhao family and the others hadn't figured out the situation when they saw the golden dragon chariot arriving at Su's mansion in great strength and power.

What an honor it is that the Son of Heaven is here?

Even Su Yan didn't expect that Duan Zhaoling had already walked up from the dragon chariot, took Su Yan by his arms, and motioned for everyone to flatten.

The spring breeze is blowing on the threshold, and the dew is in full bloom. This scene of love and harmony between the emperor and concubine is probably the envy of countless mandarin ducks.

But Su Yan was in a daze, the chance she finally got was ruined in vain in the hands of the Changle King, so the secret that was close at hand once again became out of reach.

The dinner was served in Su Yan's room, Duan Zhaoling was not displeased, on the contrary, he enjoyed it very much, he only said that the food in the ordinary family was delicious, and he didn't seem to be restrained in the palace.

The two drank some chrysanthemum wine, and Su Yan stretched out the cloth, "Why did Duan Lang come early?"

"Why? Yan'er doesn't want to see me?" Duan Zhaoling asked back, with drowning tenderness in his eyes.

"I was so pleasantly surprised, thinking of having dinner with Duan Lang at my home, they are like ordinary couples." Su Yan leaned on his shoulder and acted like a baby.

It made Long Xin very happy.

At night, she went to bed in Su Yan's bedroom. The brocade quilt in the room smelled of Su Yan everywhere. Duan Zhaoling couldn't bear it anymore, so he grabbed her and kissed her.

Su Yan was absent-minded, seeing that the night was getting dark, but she couldn't get out, her clothes were all off, Duan Zhaoling teased for a while, and was about to come forward.

Then I saw that the lights outside the house were brightly lit, and someone came to report.

When the two came out fully dressed, they were shocked again.

I saw that man with a heroic figure, looked at him deeply, and said after a long time, "Brother Huang, I haven't seen you for many years."

Duan Zhaoling never thought that the two brothers would meet again after ten years, and it would be here.

"Brother, I miss you very much."

A pair of brothers, who used to have somewhat similar faces, but now they have gone through a lot of vicissitudes, one enjoys all the glory, rich clothes and good food, and the other is desert yellow sand, with swords and swords hand in hand, they are completely different.

"Now that the capital has been turned upside down, my younger brother is a bit confused." He seemed to be emotional, and resolved the embarrassing situation with a single sentence, but his eyes fell on the woman behind him inadvertently.

Su Yan was a little timid at the moment, so she didn't say much, but Duan Zhaoye changed the subject, "I came to Su's residence today just to send Mr. Su back home."

Hearing this and looking around, the unconscious person on the shelf, carried by several soldiers, was Su Fu!

Mrs. Zhao was overjoyed and kowtowed to thank her. Su Yan and Su Zhi hurried over to check on it. Duan Zhaoye stood behind him quietly and said, "It's okay. I'm just tired. I'll recover after a few days of recuperation."

Su Yan turned around, lowered her eyebrows, and saluted him upright, like a stranger, "Thank you, my lord, for saving me, I am very grateful."
