Fragrance in the wind

While they were talking, the entire carriage suddenly tilted backwards, and Zizhou, who was unsuspecting, fell into Huan Xinghong's arms. The curtain was lifted, and when Jian Zicong glanced at the scene in the carriage for the first time, his expression was slightly different, but he immediately lowered his head and said: "The wheels of the carriage are stuck in the snow, you may have to get out of the carriage and wait."

The two got out of the carriage back and forth, only to find that the weather outside was already windy and snowy.

"I've been in the carriage all the time, but I don't know that it's snowing so much outside." Zizhou squinted his eyes when he looked at the snow-capped eyes, and Huan Xinghong put the hood on his cloak on him, and gently touched it with his fingertips. Sweep the snow stains off his face.

Zizhou watched the master's every move, feeling warm in his heart.

At this moment, the sound of Jian Zicong's horse driving suddenly increased, instantly breaking the delicate atmosphere between the two.

Looking back, Jian Zicong's body was covered with snowflakes, his face was flushed from the cold, his hands were frozen to hold the rein and he kept whipping the horse's back, Huan Xinghong shouted to him in embarrassment: " Cong! Thank you for your hard work!"

Jian Zicong just glanced at him briefly and didn't say anything.

When Zizhou retracted his thoughtful eyes, he found a group of people looming on the hillside, slowly marching towards the place where their carriage fell, when he suddenly turned pale, "It's the Shence Army!"

Following Zi Zhou's words, Huan Xinghong glanced in the same direction, and after a while he regained his composure and said, "Don't be afraid! Both Master and Xiao Zi have changed their appearance and no one will recognize them."

"Why did they appear here?" Just as he asked, Zi Zhou froze, "He actually used the Divine Strategy Army!"

Huan Xinghong quickly took Zizhou's hand, and said worriedly: "Don't be afraid! Remember to obey the master!"

After hearing this, Zizhou took a long time to say: "Master, don't worry! Since I choose to go with you, I won't let them find me!"

When they approached, Jian Zicong jumped out of the carriage, and several people greeted each other.One of the generals with a mustache asked: "I still have to hurry in such bad weather. Is there anything urgent for you?"

"My wife's mother, who is far away in Wu County, is seriously ill, and she is in a hurry to see her for the last time."

As soon as Jian Zicong finished speaking, a layer of sadness appeared on Zizhou's face, and he fell into Huan Xinghong's arms and wept softly.

Huan Xinghong lowered his head to comfort the delicate beauty in his arms.

"It turns out that people are mortal, and those who are alive must not be sad!" Qiu mustache general signaled a young soldier next to him to get off his horse and search for a car, and said: "Your Majesty has an order that all vehicles entering and leaving must be inspected. Please forgive me."

Jian Zicong looked back, Huan Xinghong nodded to him, and he took a step back to show respect.

After half a minute, the inspection was completed.When the soldier turned and returned, he noticed the beauty in Huan Xinghong's arms, so he whispered something in the ear of the bearded general, only to see that the bearded general's thick eyebrows were tightened, and his eyes flickering suspiciously at the profile of the beauty, "Madam, can you let everyone take a look at the front?"

Huan Xinghong's complexion darkened, and the time was deadlocked for a moment, then he stopped smiling, his eyes were as quiet as a cold pool, and said indifferently: "Why not."

Under Huan Xinghong's gentle consolation many times, the beauty slowly turned around unwillingly and faced the crowd.

Such a desolate area is full of bleak snow-white. It is inevitable to be amazed by the appearance of such a delicate and melancholy beauty. I hope Madam will forgive me."

The beauty pursed her lips slightly, but said nothing.

Huan Xinghong hurriedly said: "It's okay, I and my wife are still in a hurry, I don't know where I need to be inspected by the military masters?"

"Are you husband and wife?"

"Exactly!" Huan Xinghong asked with a smile, "Any questions?"

"How to prove it?"

Huan Xinghong couldn't help being a little annoyed when he heard this absurd question at first, only to hear the bearded general preemptively said: "I want to hear what Madam has to say!"

So everyone's focus was on the beauty, waiting for her to speak to prove it.

The beauty knew that no matter how ridiculous the question was, no matter how she answered it, as long as she opened her mouth, everything would be clear, so she raised her hands and signed in sign language.

Huan Xinghong came to his senses immediately, and explained to the other party: "My wife means the order of my parents, and the words of the matchmaker. I have been married to him since I was 15 years old. It has been five years since my slave called him my husband, and my husband returned my wife. We have filed a case and are already married." It's a matter of course, and now the military master wants to prove it, but it's embarrassing for the slave family, and I have to make the slave family suspect whether the military masters are using the prestige of the Shence army to bully me, a weak woman!"

General Qiumou was speechless for what he had said, if he persisted, he might damage the face of the Shence Army, damage the face of the Shence Army, and damage the face of the emperor.

"Excuse me, excuse me!" After finishing speaking, General Qiu Mustache led the crowd to leave on horseback.

When the Shence army walked a few steps away, Huan Xinghong suddenly remembered something, and immediately chased after him.

And Zizhou stepped on the snow to the side of Jian Zicong who was tidying up the carriage alone, patted him on the back, and whispered: "I'll kill you!"

"Do you like the sect master?" Jian Zicong stared sideways at Zizhou, his eyes were as pure as crystal without any impurities.

Zizhou hesitated for a moment, he couldn't imagine that he would ask such a question, he must have misunderstood, and wanted to explain, but at this time Huan Xinghong had already turned back, and he ordered Jian Zicong to set off on the second route. I learned from the mouth that the first route has been blocked by heavy snow.

The carriage started again, thousands of miles of snow, where is the destination?

Zizhou leaned on the cushion, squinted his eyes and looked out of the car, the confusion in his heart was looming, and he suddenly said: "Master, let's run away!"

Huan Xinghong was taken aback when he heard this. He never expected that Zizhou would tell him that he wanted to leave with him. Looking at the other party's expression, he said, "Really? You are willing to give up everything and be with father... master leave."

Zizhou fell silent apologetically, opened his eyes and met the master's knowing gaze, and couldn't help looking away.

"You really don't need to be like this!" Huan Xinghong sighed, an uncontrollable chill rose from the bottom of his heart, he turned his face and replied in a very low voice: "Master just wants to take care of you for a little longer, to make up for the damage I did to you. owed."

Zizhou was puzzled and said, "Obviously I owe the master too much, how could the master owe me?"

Huan Xinghong looked at him, hesitating whether to tell Xiao Zi the truth, but finally sighed: "One day Xiao Zi will understand."

The snow finally stopped, and the chill between the sky and the earth became more intense.The inns in the small town were basically not too spacious, and at this time they were full of people who were blocked by the wind and snow, so they seemed extremely crowded.When they got here, there was not even a single vacant bed in the inn, so they found a table in the corner of the restaurant, ordered some food and wine, and waited while they ate.

At this time, three or four officers and soldiers walked into the restaurant through a door at the back. They picked up a table and sat around together. Soon the food and drinks were coming, and they began to eat and drink.

But the food and drink couldn't stop their mouths. After drinking a few glasses of wine, one of them said, "Brother, how many days have we been looking for this?"

Another person said: "It started on the first day of the Lunar New Year, and now it's the seventh day of the Lunar New Year. How many days did you say?"

"Damn it! You said it's not good to stay in the imperial palace with its rich clothes and fine food in such a cold day. Why run away from home when you have nothing to do? This is the first time I've heard that the prince still runs away from home. After leaving, I have to pick a time to rest during the Chinese New Year, and drag everyone to suffer!"

The third person chewed the food in his mouth, and rushed to say: "I said brother, don't complain so much! I heard that the person above was really anxious this time, and actually mobilized the Shence Army. What?" At this point, the man's face was filled with admiration, "If the Imperial Forest Army is the emperor's battle robe, then the Shence Army is a sharp knife in the emperor's hand. I heard that last year, only 500 people recaptured Luzhou. Xi, put down the rebellion, and now the battle with the western Yi country is even more victorious, and the squadron will return to the court in a few days, who can compare with this record!"

The second person interjected: "What's the use of talking so much, hurry up and get him back so we can have a good Shangyuan Festival."

No.1 said: "It's easy to say! Where can I find such a huge crowd?" The voice suddenly lowered, "Hey! You said that the sixth prince is the emperor's heart and soul. Why did you run away from home?"

After a while of silence, the second person said again: "Eat yours quickly, why are you talking so much nonsense?"

At this moment, the waiter from the inn came over and said to Zizhou and the others: "Two rooms on the south side have been vacated, and they have been cleaned. The three of you can rest at any time."

The three of them were speechless after a meal, only listening to gossip. Zizhou felt a little tired, so he went back to his room to rest.

When Huan Xinghong returned to the room, he saw the little man taking off all his makeup and curled up in a ball, with his back turned to him as if he had fallen asleep.

But Zizhou said: "Lie down!"

So he took off his boots and hugged him: "I'm sorry! I woke you up."

Huan Xinghong's coaxing breath made Zizhou couldn't help getting closer, and said softly: "I haven't slept, I'll be waiting for you."

Listening to the warm words, Huan Xinghong's breath was slightly stagnant, he endured it, and tried to change the topic to a lighter one, "Is there any place you want to go? Let's go together, shall we?"

The person in his arms moved slightly, but did not speak.

"How about we go to the south, where it is sunny all year round, and it is very beautiful? Or it is good to go to the Western Regions, the customs there are very different from here, I think you will like it with your temperament." He said to himself , rubbing Zizhou's forehead affectionately, the pale scar seemed to remind him of his lack of protection.

"A Cong, does he sleep in another room?" Zizhou raised his face and stared into his eyes.

"What are you talking about him at this time?"

"He's fine! I..." He paused, bit his lips and said, "Not good!"

"Who said that?" He pinched his nose half-blaming and half-pityingly, "My little Zi is so pure and kind, she would rather bear it by herself than think about others first, sometimes she will teach her when she is self-willed. People hate itchy teeth, sometimes it makes people feel distressed when they are sensible, but there is one thing to get rid of, some people don’t need to repay you for being kind to you, don’t always refuse or rush to repay, teach People feel far away from you."

Zizhou silently listened to the black and white pupils soaked in moisture, slowly drooping, confused and anxious.

"Xiao Zi..." Huan Xinghong stopped when the words came to his lips, and then said: "Don't leave, okay? Let me make up for it..."

Before he finished speaking, he felt a sudden numbness in his waist and couldn't move. He opened his mouth but couldn't make any sound, and his heart was suddenly cold.

"I'm sorry, Xiao Zi did it on purpose!" He looked at the master, with a beautiful and beautiful smile, "Forget about mother! Get out of here with A Cong, I will beg Father to let you go!" Looking at the master's struggle , I felt a sense of trance repeatedly, "I can't give up my mother's last wish. Without me, you and A Cong can live a good life, but I am only suitable to live in hell."

After saying that, he tidied up his clothes, walked slowly to the door and stood there, turned his head and took a deep look, and then decided to leave.

That figure suddenly disappeared from his blurred vision, and Huan Xinghong's heart was bleeding.
