Rebirth of Noble Menjiao

There is a high slope not far from the west gate of Beiguan, where you can overlook the plain scenery to the west. It is clear and green, which is fascinating.

Xue Lince rode up the slope and saw Mingyi sitting on the back of the horse. He stopped on the slope. The sun outlined the man and the horse into a dark silhouette, blending with the picturesque scenery in front, as if he had become a figure in the painting.

Listening to the sound of horse hooves coming up the slope from far away, Mingyi stopped behind her. Mingyi turned her head. The wind picked up her hair and dress and fluttered in the air. For a moment, she looked like a butterfly about to fly. .

"The scouts under Governor Xue are really amazing, they actually found out my whereabouts so clearly." Mingyi smiled softly, quietly shattering this dream-like scene.

Xue Lin lowered his eyes lightly, covering the dark light in his eyes, and drove his horse forward, standing side by side with her, "This place is still in Beiguan, so there is no need for scouts. What's more, compared to the Anxi Army's scout camp, Madam had expected it early When I come to look for you, that’s when you’re truly capable." Xue Lin said as he handed over the letter in his lapel.

Mingyi reached out and took it, holding it casually without any hint of guilt or pride on her face, "The Governor misunderstood, I didn't run out of the city to embarrass you, I really just wanted to come out and have a look... Look! How beautiful it is. !" Mingyi turned her head and looked into the distance. It was the season when the vegetation was growing wildly. The breeze seemed to carry the fragrance of the vegetation. The waves of grass fell, one after another, towards the horizon. It was so beautiful.

How can such an open view be comparable to the square walls of Wangjing City and the wealth and splendor built up by manpower? Mingyi squinted her eyes slightly in the warm sunshine, but she couldn't help but pull the corners of her mouth, and her heart was full of peace and joy.

Xue Lin looked at her, his eyes falling on the smile on the corner of her lips. After a moment, he softly said, "Did you know early on that I was testing you?"

"I wasn't sure at first, but when I got to the scout camp, they actually offered to let me try to decipher the secret language. I still can't understand it, then I would be really stupid." Mingyi replied with a smile, her eyes still focused on the distance, and her tone was also It was gentle, as if he was really just chatting with Xue Lin.

"So, you just don't hide it anymore?" Xue Lin's lips seemed to be slightly pulled back, and his voice was low, and he couldn't tell what the meaning was.

"I never thought about hiding it." Mingyi finally turned to look at him, her eyes as clear as a stream were scattered with the tiny light of the sun, "Didn't I already tell the governor when we were in Wangjing City? I thought... …The governor finally believed in me.”

"I believed it." This sound was pressed in his throat, and there seemed to be an indescribable meaning. Xue Lin also turned to look at her, and their eyes met, "But I thought you changed your mind."

Mingyi frowned, wondering when she changed her mind and why did he become suspicious? Is it just because she asked for a topographical map? Or maybe her father and mother are now trapped in Wangjing City, and he feels that the royal family has taken advantage of her?

But somehow, when she met Xue Lin's eyes, her heart suddenly moved, and she was inexplicably shocked... No, was it because she lived in a different house with him after coming to Beiguan?

It's a bit unbelievable, but after thinking about it, it's not without reason.

Mingyi felt a little confused for a moment, coughed twice, and looked away, "Don't worry, Governor, I haven't changed my mind. Although my father and mother are staying in Wangjing now, His Majesty didn't show up when I left the capital. After all, this matter is not His Majesty’s handiwork. Although the Governor is far away in Beiguan, he shouldn’t know about it.”

Seeing her bit her lip lightly, she raised her hand to hook the hair on her cheek behind her ear. Her half-draped eyelashes trembled slightly as if uneasy. She didn't raise her head to look at him after saying this... He pulled it off and followed the flow of her words to reveal what he had just said, "Even if Your Majesty really didn't say anything, in any case, your father-in-law and mother-in-law are stranded in Beijing. As far as you are concerned, your weakness is finally in the hands of others. It is inevitable that you will throw the mouse away." That day, I had to think more about it. Besides, time has changed, and your Majesty doesn’t have that intention now, and there’s no guarantee that he won’t have that intention in the future. What’s more... His Majesty doesn’t really want to live forever, so with the intention of returning to the Crown Princess now, even if there are others behind his back. Push Hands, do you dare to conclude that what I am worried about will really not happen?"

These words, every word was as sharp as a knife, tearing apart the whitewashed appearance that Mingyi tried so hard to ignore, revealing the cruel truth about human nature and power beneath the seeming peace. Mingyi's face turned slightly pale, and after a moment of silence, she pinched her palms, raised her eyes, and looked at Xue Lin with stern eyes, "Director Xue, will you rebel?" The wind on the ground was very strong, Mingyi's words But the words were pressed very low, as if they were shattered in the wind as soon as he said them. But Xue Lin's ears were very good. Mingyi knew that he must have heard it, and heard it clearly, but he didn't respond at all, just fixedly. Looking at her, her eyes were as still as the deep sea, as if a raging undertide was about to roll up in an instant and swallow her up.

Mingyi moved uneasily on the horse, tightened her hand on the horse's rein quietly, and said with some urgency, "Director Xue, I promise you, as long as you don't have other thoughts, no matter what happens, , I will never..."

"Why?" Xue Lin interrupted her eagerness softly, "Why do you ask that? When you were in Wangjing, didn't you say that no matter what others say or think, you will believe it? But why do you ask this question again today? "

Mingyi didn't speak and looked back at him quietly. They didn't have to say some things clearly. They both knew why she asked this question.

Xue Lin lowered his eyes and chuckled twice with unknown meaning, "I understand... In other words, you are standing with me now, but if there is any disagreement between me and the court in the future, it may not be possible. "

Mingyi frowned and opened her mouth to say something, but he had already raised his eyes. His eyes were deep and cold, holding her tightly, as if he wanted to look straight into her eyes and into her heart, "I I don’t know why you are so devoted to the imperial court. It is probably because your surname is Fu, and you have identified the Great Zhou as your Fu family. But I, Xue Lin, am different. I am loyal, but I am never loyal to the royal family or to the Great Zhou. I am loyal. It’s the land beneath my feet and the people living on this land.”

These words obviously did not raise the volume, but every word seemed to have a huge weight, hitting Mingyi's heart hard, and she was speechless for a moment.

Xue Lin's words only ended here. He didn't say anything else, and there was no need to say it. Mingyi already understood.

For a moment, only the sound of wind could be heard everywhere, until the horse under Mingyi's crotch neighed uneasily and twisted its body somewhat manically. Mingyi didn't notice, and was almost thrown off its back. A hand reached out at the right time to pick up the horse. passed the reins and calmed the horse.

Mingyi raised her eyes with a white face and looked at Xue Lin's solemn face, "Mas are very familiar with human nature. Your mood will affect it. Don't pull the reins so tightly."

Only then did Mingyi understand, and quickly released her grip, "I didn't notice..."

"You think we might not always be able to walk side by side, so why don't we stop walking together from the beginning?" Xue Lin suddenly asked.

Mingyi suddenly raised her eyes to look at him, but subconsciously shook her head, "Aren't we already on the same road?"

"Maybe..." Xue Lin twitched the corner of his mouth and seemed to smile, but it was not clear, "Then let's go together for now. As for the future..." What will happen next, he didn't say, maybe he did, But it was blown away by the wind. Mingyi pricked up her ears to listen, but heard nothing.

Xue Lin had already turned the horse's head and turned around, "If you think this is good, then let's do this first!"
