auspicious time has come

Chapter 154
Seeing him staring, Pei Wushuang touched the bruise subconsciously, and then quickly covered it with his forehead hair.

There is no girl at this age who does not love beauty, especially in front of her sweetheart.

She said with some embarrassment, "I bumped into it when I hid it in a box before. The carriage inevitably bumped a bit. I almost vomited all my bile that day..."

Yin Hai was silent for a moment.

"Why do you come here to drink alone? Do you have something on your mind?" The girl asked seriously.

Yin Hai looked away, and his tone seemed to return to his previous indifference: "I can have nothing to worry about, but I just want to see the night scene."

"It's so dark, what can you see..." Pei Wushuang looked at the mountains in the distance along his line of sight, and forced himself to say, "However, there is indeed a certain kind of silence..."

She seemed to cherish every moment with him, for fear that he would run away the next moment, she kept talking: "It reminds me of a poem, do you want to listen to it?"

Yin Hai raised his head and took another sip of the wine. The wine was spicy. He hissed lightly and said, "I don't want to."

Pei Wushuang automatically ignored his answer, and already chanted: "...the night is deep and quiet, and the insects are dead, and the moon comes out and the light enters the door."

After she finished reading, she asked him with a smile, "Isn't it suitable for the occasion?"

Yin Hai looked at the crescent moon in the mountains: "Then, do you know what are the penultimate and third lines of this poem?"

"The second and third sentences from the bottom..." Pei Wushuang thought for a while, and said, "Dangliu stepped on the rocks with bare feet, and the sound of the water made the wind blow his clothes. Life is so easy, how can it be a mess?"

No matter how noisy the little girl is, after all, she is a lady from a family, and her poetry and poetry are not a problem.

"Since you can recite it, you should know what you want after thinking about it, right?"

"Of course—" Pei Wushuang lifted his chin slightly, and said somewhat complacently: "Isn't that what you mean, stepping on stones barefoot across the stream, the wind blowing your clothes, and the sound of water, you can enjoy yourself in this world. Why do you need to be restrained, like being tied to a horse, and you will lose this leisurely content from then on?"

Yin Hai nodded: "That's exactly what I want."

Pei Wushuang was taken aback and looked at him.

"Living in this world, walking between the heaven and the earth, I want to be unrestrained. I was born this way, and I will end up here in the end." Yin Hai took a sip of wine, a smile appeared in his eyes, and looked at her: "Isn't it Miss Pei? Do you yearn for what the poem refers to? Why do you have to put shackles on yourself."

"Of course!" Pei Wushuang suddenly clapped his hands in front of him, as if suddenly enlightened.

Yin Hai faintly felt that something was wrong.

"Are you inviting me to travel around the world with you, to live that unfettered life?" She nodded with hope and longing in her eyes, and said, "I am willing! Wherever you go in this life, I will go there!"

The smile froze on Yin Hai's face.

"I like the landscape in the south of the Yangtze River!" The girl said more and more joyfully: "Have you ever been to the south of the Yangtze River? Is it really as written in the poem?"

As she spoke, she became a little excited, and reached out to grab Yin Hai's arm.

Yin Hai withdrew his arm and said with a smile: "Miss Pei misunderstood... What the poor monk means is that you and I should go our own way and be free."

"You are totally fallacious. Why is the freedom of one person free, but the freedom of two people becomes a bondage?" Pei Wushuang said dissatisfiedly, "What do you mean to understand the world of mortals? You entered this world with your own ideas. If you stick to your own opinion and refuse to try, how can you really understand it?"

Yin Hai had a headache when she heard it, and when she was about to argue, she put one palm on the boulder and jumped down from the side.

"Why are you running again? I haven't finished talking yet! - Oops!" Pei Wushuang took two quick steps to catch up, but suddenly bent: "Hiss, my feet..."

Yin Hai, who had walked a few steps, stopped helplessly, and looked back at her: "Stop pretending."

"You think I'm faking it, then ask back..." The girl couldn't help but smile, trying to maintain a pitiful look: "But I'm really not faking it, I'm really sprained."

Seeing that he seemed hesitant, she quickly hit the snake with the stick: "Can you carry me?"

After hearing this, Yin Hai was about to leave.

"Hey! Wait! You don't have to carry it, you can support it!" Pei Wushuang took the next best thing: "Saving someone's life is better than building a seven-level pagoda!"

After saying this, I saw him walking back slowly.

Seeing this, Pei Wushuang tried not to laugh.

Yin Hai came in front of her, with his right hand reaching for the saber at his waist.

Pei Wushuang's eyes widened suddenly: "You...you..."

She, although she is a little too much, but the crime is not worthy of death!
The next moment, he saw that he wanted to untie the sword and handed it to her: "Let's go back by yourself."

Then, without waiting for her to respond, he left with the jug in hand.

"Hey!"

Pei Wushuang stomped his feet anxiously, but it hurt even more when he touched the wound.

She wailed, and when she saw the sword in her hand, she blinked her eyes.

Holding the saber in her arms, a smile gradually appeared on her face, and she suddenly raised her head and shouted in his direction: "This is a token of love!"

"..." Yin Hai walked faster without turning his head.

"If you don't speak, I'll take it for granted!" The little girl hugged the scabbard tightly, smiled, and said to herself, "Anyway, I won't return it..."

She walked for a while foolishly and happily, and then saw the female envoy approaching.

"Girl, what's wrong with your foot!" The maid nervously stepped forward to support him.

Pei Wushuang walked with a limp, but there was a smile in his voice: "My feet are very sensible..."

As he spoke, he couldn't help asking the female envoy, "How do you know I'm here?"

"Vice General Yin told the servant girl to come and find the girl."

The smile on Pei Wushuang's face became sweeter when he heard it, and he whispered: "I knew it, my mouth is hard and my heart is soft..."

The bonfire burned all night, and the sky was about to go out.

When Hengyu woke up, he saw the roof of the tent, and after a while of reaction, he looked around.

She was in the tent—

Last night, Ben agreed to go to the inn in the town, why did she sleep here?

"The girl is awake." Cuihuai brought in a basin of hot water for washing from outside.

"Did I...drunk last night?" Heng Yu sat up and asked, and some scattered images began to reappear in her mind.

She was already half-drunk, but then Pei Wushuang pulled her around the fire for a drink, and after that... It seemed that both of them were drunk.

"That's right, the girl is drunk..." Cuihuai said: "Seeing this, Lord Hou asked the maid to serve the girl and rest in his tent."

"What about the process?" Heng Yu asked thoughtfully.

How could she remember that at the end of the drink, Xiao Mu went to look for her, and just sat down beside her... She seemed to fall on him?
Or did she misremember, or...dream?

Seeing her questioning carefully, Cuihuai coughed lightly, and then said: "The girl was very drunk, fell asleep on the lap of Lord Hou, and it was Lord Hou... who carried the girl back to this tent."

Still sleeping on his lap!

Hengyu was very surprised—when she was drunk, she...was so sincere?
And... hugged back?
She subconsciously breathed lightly, lowering her eyes to look at her arms and hands.

"Don't worry, girl, everyone dispersed at that time, few people saw it, no one would talk nonsense." Cui Huai whispered.

It took Heng Yu a while to come back to her senses: "Then where did he rest last night?"

"He rested in Vice General Wang's tent. Vice General Wang kept watch in the first half of the night, and Master Hou got up in the second half of the night. It seems that he went to Vice General Yin to discuss matters."

At the same moment, Wang Jingyong also just woke up.

However, as soon as he opened his eyes, he felt a little itchy on his face, turned around to look, and met a pair of small brown eyes unexpectedly.

Wang Jingyong sat up straight away.

"Why is it here!" He pointed to the little black dog on the bed and asked.

The soldier guarding the tent smiled and said, "It was sent by Mrs. Gu."

"She sent it, and you put it on my bed?" Wang Jingyong frowned, "Where are all your rules?"

"But...that's Mrs. Gu..." The soldier laughed dryly.

"So what if it's her!" Wang Jingyong looked at the milk dog crawling towards him, with rejection written all over his eyes - he said he didn't want to keep it anymore, this woman is outrageous!
"Then... the subordinate dealt with it?" The soldier could only ask tentatively.

Wang Jingyong frowned even tighter.

The puppy came to his feet and licked the pant legs of his white coat.

Wang Jingyong shrank his feet suddenly, bent over and picked up the puppy, frowning in front of his eyes for a moment, then asked disgustedly: "It's so small... how do you raise it?"

"Should I drink milk?" the soldier asked.

The eyes of the inexperienced Deputy General Wang changed: "Where did I get the milk?"

"?!" Now the soldier became embarrassed-that is to say, is there a possibility...without Vice-General Wang personally breastfeeding?

"This subordinate refers to goat milk..."

Wang Jingyong's face softened slightly: "Then get some here."

"Yes." The soldier backed out with a complicated expression.

……

After washing up, Hengyu left the tent, but did not see Xiao Mu, so she casually asked a soldier, "Where is Lord Hou?"

"Hou Ye seems to have gone to interrogate the assassin yesterday."

Interrogate the assassin?
Hengyu nodded.

It's time to meet an old friend.

In the last camp tent, all the sundries needed for camping are piled up.

The man with his hands and feet tied was sitting there slumped against a heavy wooden box behind his back. When he saw someone coming in, he raised his eyelids and looked, his eyes were filled with murderous intent again.

Xiao Mu glanced at the untouched food and the mutton soup with a layer of oil in front of him.

"Why, are you afraid of being poisoned?" He asked.

Although his hands and feet were tied, soldiers would untie his hands during meals and watch him finish eating.

And he obviously didn't eat it.

"Hypocritical." The man turned his face to the side, and said in a cold voice, "Winners and losers, kill them if you want to, who can show these tricks! My life is dead, it's not worth your trouble, General Xiao!"

Xiao Mu looked at him: "Lan Qing, I don't want to kill you—"

The man's eyes changed, and he frowned and looked at Xiao Mu: "How do you know my name?"

In the past, he was only protecting King Jin secretly, but he did not have a military position on the surface. Did the other party find out his details so clearly!

In the line of sight, the man stood against the light, his tall and straight figure was immersed in the morning light coming in from outside the tent, although his face was blurred, it seemed that some of the aura that was hidden in the ordinary days seemed to be clear——

The man's eyelashes trembled, and he felt that he was hallucinating.

　Dragon Boat Festival Ankang, today is a day full of food
