Chapter 9

In three years, a lot has happened.

Manzhu Tower shifted its position and moved to Xiaguo. The former Bianbao has become a real River of Forgetfulness. The square wooden bridge stands high, the river blocks the way, and the Bianhua flowers grow in disorder. When the flowers bloom, the river near the fort is polluted. Into a faint red, like the Red Sea.

The King of Su State gave way to the Crown Prince two years ago. After the Crown Prince took care of himself for a year, the relationship with the State of Xia gradually became tense. The border wars continued and the people were in dire straits, but no one dared to stand up and resist. Everyone was afraid of the new emperor's atrocities.

"This time we will take down the border town in one fell swoop"

In the court hall, Su Yize's dragon robe was dazzling, his brows were stern, and his thin lips were lightly pursed, presenting the most perfect state.

On the high throne, above one person, below ten thousand people.

"Minister, take the order." General Zeng Houding knelt on one knee to receive the order. Even if he was kneeling, his body was as tall as an eleven or two-year-old child. After taking the order, he walked out of the court. The red cloak fluttered up and down, very chic.

The former monarch liked to be kind. After so many years, his hands were itchy. When he left the court, a confident smile appeared on Zenghou Ding's resolute face.

"Lord, the third prince is here again." The housekeeper Chen Yuanji walked into Yangyue's study impatiently, stroking the finger-length goatee on his chin.

Yang Yue raised her head from the ledger and couldn't help laughing at the little old man Chen Yuanji. He was only forty, and he didn't know why he dressed himself up like an old man all day long. I once asked him, he habitually Caressing the goatee and said slowly, "This is how you look like a grand master"

"Is that why you have such a big opinion on him?" Standing up, Yang Yue walked out the door.

"That's right, he came here when the boss was away when he had nothing to do. His intentions were not pure." Chen Yuanji had an injustice on his face. The host is married to the boss. Why are there so many people who don't know the current affairs? The host went out in person a few days ago Talking about a big business, almost being eaten tofu by the wretched old man.

Who told them that the landlord is getting longer and more beautiful, and now he no longer wears a mask, as long as the landlord goes out, it will make them fearful.

In the past three years, Suguo's storefronts have evacuated and turned to Xiaguo for development. After three years of hard work in Xiaguo, Manzhulou finally occupied half of the economic energy, and half was controlled by several larger families in Xiaguo.

"How can you say that he has helped us a lot in the past few years?" Yang Yue turned her head and smiled at Chen Yuanji. Indeed, Su Yize's business in Su Country has been messed up, and her income has gradually decreased. Now she can only transfer the main force to Xia Guo, with the support of the royal family in Xia Guo, business will naturally go smoothly.

Yang Yue still admires Su Yize. His father forced him to abdicate before he ascended to heaven. He started a war after two years in power. He is not afraid of angering the people before the throne is secured. The dynasty is about to change.

When she came to the lobby, Xia Liuli was studying the lilies raised in water in the crystal vase on the table. When she saw Yangyue coming in, she raised her head and smiled at her. Beside the pure white flowers, Xia Liuli was wearing a water-blue brocade robe. The pure lily is ashamed.

Yangyue rubbed her forehead uncomfortably, if she looked at such a beautiful man every day, she would lose her mind too.

"Why do you have time to come here today?" Yang Yue sat on the main seat, took a sip from her teacup and looked at Xia Liuli.

"Well, I'm here to ask if you'll be there on my birthday?"

"Of course I will, you have asked me many times." Yang Yue blinked and laughed.

"Ah, is that so?" Xia Liuli seemed a little at a loss, every time she saw Yang Yue, she would speak incoherently, looking left and right in embarrassment, trying to find something to talk about.

"Actually, you don't have to be so restrained." Yang Yue lazily leaned on the tiger leather stool, with her left hand resting on the armrest and her chin propped on the back of her hand, looking like a boss.

"····" Xia Liuli smiled, in fact, he is not restrained, but every time he sees Yangyue, he gets nervous, and his heart beats twice as fast as usual.

"Would you like to go out for a walk together?" Yang Yue felt awkward sitting like this with nothing to say.

"Okay." Xia Liuli answered very quickly.

In the western suburbs of Xia Kingdom’s imperial city, here is a large piece of farmland. In summer, cicadas grow and sing, and under the larger trees sit farmers in twos and threes, using sweat towels as fans, fanning the heat around their necks. The dog pulled its tongue out and breathed quickly, driving its body up and down.

"How is it here?" Yangyue stood by the field, looking at the lush greenery, feeling very comfortable.

"It's beautiful, I've never been here before." Xia Liuli looked at Yang Yue's side face taking a deep breath, feeling a little silly.

"Of course, as a prince, why would you come here?" Yang Yue pulled out her long hair that was blown by the breeze, and stepped onto the ridge, "Come with me, the guards will not be used, I'm afraid you will trample other people's ridges"

"Oh..." Xia Liuli followed confusedly and stepped onto the low ground, which was half-knee-high. Seeing Xia Liuli sway back and forth, Xia Liuli was so frightened that she wanted to help her up again, the two of them almost hugged each other, and the guards on top were also frightened.

After standing still, Xia Liuli quickly withdrew her hand, her face was red from the sun or something?

"sorry"

"It's okay." Yang Yue smiled and didn't care, and continued to walk forward.

Xia Liuli has never walked such a road before, and the one who is struggling is even more behind. Some places on the ridge are very soft. Xia Liuli walks and shakes, and the guards watching from above sweat for him.

Yang Yue walked for a while, stopped and looked back, Xia Liuli walked very slowly, a little far away from her, Yang Yue had no choice but to stand there and wait for him.

"hurry up"

"Oh..." Xia Liuli quickened her pace in embarrassment, and almost stepped on the ground again, standing on the ridge of the field staggering, and the guards above collectively gasped again.

Yangyue raised her right hand to cover her mouth and smiled lightly. The summer wind blew over a large area of ​​rice seedlings with a little heat. The rice seedlings swayed in the direction of the wind. The mountains not far away were dyed pink by azalea. The girl in purple on the ridge Covering his lips and chuckling, the blue-clothed boy who was some distance away from her looked hard, sitting and struggling with the ridge, their long hair slanted and fluttering like forest elves.

The guards and farmers enjoying the shade under the tree were all attracted by this beautiful scroll, and couldn't bear to blink.

"Where are we going?" Xia Liuli was already sweating profusely when she finally reached Yang Yue's side.

"Go to my vegetable garden." Yangyue pointed to a garden at the foot of the mountain and replied, Xia Liuli looked at it, and immediately froze like a deflated ball.

When will he be able to go so far?
"Come, I'll take you." Yang Yue grinned, her teeth white and white.

Xia Liuli was flattered and put her hand on Yangyue's hand and walked forward. The wind blew again at the right time, and the hair of the two was flying in the air as if they were trying to tie each other. An oil painting like a fairy painting is pouring over.

Xia Liuli thought blankly behind Yangyue, if time could stay at this moment forever, he would surely die of happiness.

"Here" came to the gate of the vegetable garden, Yangyue let go of Xia Liuli, the moment Xia Liuli let go, reflexively grabbed Yangyue's hand again, Yangyue raised her head to look at him in surprise, this look, Seeing that Xia Liuli's face was burning, she hurriedly let go and apologized repeatedly.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." He just didn't want to let go, and when he thought about it, he uncontrollably held Yang Yue's hand instead.

Yang Yue didn't say anything, just smiled, turned around and opened the door of the vegetable garden and walked in.

"Do you want to eat cucumber?" Yang Yue took off a cucumber and wiped it on her skirt, and handed it to Xia Liuli who was standing there dumbfounded.

"I just picked it, it's very fresh." Yang Yue wiped the other cucumber hanging on the vine with her cuff, bit it down, and then turned to Xia Liuli, who was even more stunned, and said, "This one is fresher."

"Hey..." Xia Liuli couldn't help laughing, but the smile was brighter than the sun.

"Do you usually eat like this?"

"No, every time Ye Zi and I come here, we just pick it and leave, eat as we go." Yang Yue picked off the cucumber she bit into, and walked to the other side of the vegetable garden on her own, so she didn't see Xia Liuli behind her. The smile on the corner of the mouth is more bitter than bitter melon.

Yangyue taught Xia Liuli how to pick cucumbers easily, asked him to help weed, and even scared him with bugs. Half a day passed like a stream. When the sun was setting, the two parted at the central square of the imperial city, and one person carried a pile of cucumbers to the left. Go, go back to the palace, walk to the right empty-handed, go back to Yangfu.

The setting sun shone down, illuminating the things on the square reddishly, Yang Yue hadn't gone far, and suddenly felt a little nostalgic, suddenly looking back, Xia Liuli stood at the sunset and looked at her quietly.

This scene made Yang Yue think of the male and female protagonists in TV dramas. Does this atmosphere mean that the female protagonist will desperately run towards the male protagonist? The male protagonist stands there with his hands open and waits for the female protagonist to rush into his arms, and then give him a French kiss? .

Yang Yue shook her head vigorously, trying to get rid of the fantasies in her mind.

He waved to Xia Liuli who was in the distance, then hurriedly left.
