Chapter 94

Not much to say, quickly soaked and wrapped up his clothes, when he opened the door of the room, Xuanyuan Chen was hugging his shoulders, bending his lips and smiling at him not far away.

With my face burning, I turned and went back to the room. He then came in, locked the door behind him, and went directly to the simple couch, and lay down with his clothes on.

It was already midnight at this time, I hesitated for a moment, then went back to the couch and lowered the curtains.

It was still raining outside the house, and there was thunder and lightning, but the house was surprisingly silent.

Listening to the light crackling sound of raindrops hitting the window lattice, my heart kept beating, I was obviously sleepy, but I just couldn't fall asleep.

I rolled over on my side, closing my eyes to get sleepy, but I became more and more energetic.

"Little girl, can't you sleep?" Xuanyuan Chen's voice came softly.

I didn't answer, so he chuckled lightly and said, "Since I can't sleep, let me tell you a story."

I am a little helpless, I am not a child, what a story.

He paused for a moment, and then slowly said, "Let me tell you about something that happened when Brother Huang and I were young."

"The central land is colder, and the spring and autumn are not too hot, only the summer climate is slightly higher. Seven miles away from the palace, there is a snow mountain, which does not melt all year round. But there is a gorge on the mountainside. Drilling into the middle, the inside is another look, the spring flowers are flourishing, the leaves are green, it is very pleasing to the eye. The most important thing is that there is a kind of green lotus growing inside, which is a rare herb. The mother loves medicine and goes up the mountain to collect herbs. I found the crack when I was there, and then I took my brother and me there twice."

If I remember correctly, Ji Yunchang also mentioned this place, and it turns out that this place is seven miles away from the Zhonglu Palace.I thought it was interesting, so I pricked up my ears and listened carefully.

"Because the four seasons are cold, the summer in Zhonglu is a bit hot. Brother Huang and I were very naughty when we were young. When we were bored, we would often sneak out of the palace and play in the cracks. Later, we made some rough tricks. A simple small pavilion was built there. The two of us were tired from playing, so we got into the tree pavilion to rest."

The queen mother couldn't find me and brother Huang at first, she was very anxious, but later she found the pavilion, and she couldn't find us anymore, so she went to search in the crevices of the mountain, and every time she could find it, she also left the palace at will.

That time, my brother and I overturned the queen mother's medicine stove, afraid of being scolded, so we ran to the crevice of the mountain again, thinking about going to our tree pavilion to rest, but we didn't expect that the pavilion was actually asleep a girl.

Next to the girl was a small Yaolou, who must have gone up the mountain to collect herbs.Seeing that she was sleeping soundly, my royal brother caught a green caterpillar and put it on her skirt, and then twisted her hair into a small rope and scratched her ears a few times. then woke up. "

"Did that girl cry because of you?" I asked aloud.

Xuanyuan Chen said, "Brother Xu also thought so. Who knows, the situation is not like that at all. After the girl woke up, she glanced at the caterpillar. There was no fear on her face. She just flicked the little bug lightly." Flew out."

Brother Huang felt bored, so he thought of new tricks to trick her, and she accepted them one by one.

After that, Brother Huang and I often went to Shuge and saw that little girl often.In this way, half a year passed in a flash.

In the past six months, the emperor's brother has gradually stopped playing tricks on her, and she also started to smile sweetly when she saw the emperor's brother.

It was a beautiful day like this. When the father, queen and mother found out about this, they all thought that it was really good that they were childhood sweethearts.

In this way, after another half a year, Brother Huang gradually stopped dragging me to go to the tree pavilion in the crack of the mountain.That day, Brother Huang was dressed very nicely, put on his favorite Luo Guan, and left happily.But he hadn't come back in the evening that day.

The emperor sent the imperial guards to look for it, and I followed.

We went to the crevasse, but there was no one inside, and even more so in the tree pavilion. Everyone was so anxious that they started to search separately.Finally, in the depths of the snow-capped mountains, he finally found Brother Huang whose hands were already bleeding from digging. "

I vaguely thought of something in my heart, and asked tentatively, "Did something happen to that girl?"

He paused for a while, and said in a low tone, "That day, an avalanche occurred in the snow mountain, and that girl was buried deep in the snow mountain forever."

I felt a little regretful in my heart, and I heard him say again, "Brother Huang told me later that day, he told her that the queen father and mother liked her very much and wanted to see her. The girl's family was poor, so she felt that those congratulatory gifts should be the best, so she I took Brother Huang to the depths of the snow mountain to pick snow lotus.

Unexpectedly, they found an epiphyllum on the cliff of the snow-capped mountain. When they got closer, they found that it was an epiphyllum with two pedicles. "

I thought for a moment, "Is there really Epiphyllum fruit?"

Xuanyuan Chen said, "It is said in the book, but it is the first time everyone has seen the epiphyllum fruit. The girl ignored the danger and resolutely climbed up the cliff. It was just after picking the epiphyllum fruit that the avalanche fell."

"From that day on, Brother Huang, he didn't eat or drink, and took people to dig in the collapsed snow mountain every day. Finally, on the tenth day, the girl's body was dug up. The girl was smiling, and she was holding the withered corpse in her hand. Epiphyllum."

I heard it a little heavy, so I sighed softly, "It's a pity."

Xuanyuan Chen also sighed softly, "It's a pity. Since then, Brother Huang has changed from being lively and cheerful to being taciturn. In recent years, he has never been close to other women, let alone married. Concubine, until now, Zhonglu still has an empress and no empress."

The more I listened, the more heavy I became, so I sighed, and deliberately changed the subject, "So, many years ago, did you come to Xiqi to marry Princess Heshuo for your brother?"

Xuanyuan Chen seemed to smile, and said, "I've already said that, these years, he hasn't been close to other women, and the post-marriage matter is naturally not his intention. You still don't understand why I came here?"

I am silent and not talking.

He sighed softly, and said, "When there are flowers, you need to fold them. Don't wait for flowers to be empty. How many people want to cherish them, but it is already impossible. Little girl, I am by your side, you have to cherish me." , don’t always yell, don’t make a bad face, and be gentle.”

I smiled for a while, it turned out that he said so much, this sentence is the key, I really don't miss the slightest chance to say such words.

He secretly frowned for a while, but felt a little sleepy, turned over and covered the quilt, and fell asleep after a while.

I slept lightly, that is, when I woke up.Gently pulled the curtain to see, Xuanyuan Chen was sleeping soundly, maybe the chair was not very comfortable, he curled up, wrapped his head in a quilt, like a big cicada pupa.

It was not yet daylight outside, but the rain had stopped.

Seeing that he was sleeping soundly, I hesitated for a moment, and went down quietly, took the package with the lightest movement, went downstairs in a low voice, took my BMW and pulled it to the side of the road, jumped up lightly, and hit the road. The horse broke into the morning.

I was riding horses all the way, and at about Chen's time, I felt a little hungry, and then I remembered that I left early in the morning and didn't eat breakfast.

Seeing a pavilion in front of him from a distance, he rode his horse over there, thinking of going there to rest and eat something, but when he got closer, he realized that there was already a person sitting in the pavilion.

This person was wearing a coarse cloth gown, a pair of leggings, a pair of lace-up cloth shoes, a coarse cloth scarf around his head, and a beard stuck to his lips.

This is not Xuanyuan Chen, who else could it be...

It's really lingering, I got up early and drove the bloody BMW for so long, and he actually waited here beforehand.

If I had known this earlier, I wouldn't have left early...

Seeing me arriving, he curled the corners of his lips, and didn't mention anything about me leaving without saying goodbye. Instead, he called me over, took out steaming buns, and handed them to me, "There's nothing delicious in the backcountry. Yes, I asked the store owner, and they said that this steamed stuffed bun is pretty good, so come over and have a taste."

He took out another small bamboo tube and said, "I was afraid that you would not be able to eat enough, so I asked the store to buy two servings of eight-treasure porridge. I drank a bucket when I was hungry on the way. The taste is quite light. Come and taste it."

With that said, he brought the porridge together.

If there is something hot, I naturally don’t eat jerky and drink cold water. I take a bite of the steamed stuffed bun. Well, the stuffed pork and scallions are delicious.

"Drink some eight-treasure porridge." He watched me eat two buns and handed over the bamboo bucket. I didn't doubt him, so I took a big gulp, paused, and vomited it all out.

"Puff...cough cough." I coughed, Xuanyuan Chen hurriedly patted my back, opened the mouth of his water bag and handed it to me, but I didn't pick it up, picked up my own cowhide water bag, and gulped it down Spit out.

Spicy and salty, this is eight-treasure porridge, it is clearly a seasoning jar!

I raised my head angrily, but saw that he took out another bamboo tube from nowhere, with a displeased expression on his face, and said with a little distress, "Little girl, if I sneak away alone next time, I will put more salt... ..."
