A single tree becomes a banyan

The way down the mountain was not smooth, Ruyuan followed Su Rong all the way, stopped and stopped, saw that her lips were already pale, walked up to her without saying a word and knelt down, but was rejected: "There is someone to pick you up from the mountain, let me It's not proper for them to see you carrying me on your back."

"they?"

A gleam of light flashed in Su Rong's tired eyes, and he said a little proudly: "Murong is lucky to have the Murong family, so I naturally have mine too. Don't worry, I still have a way out."

Ruyuan understood, but still squatted down and refused to get up, and asked, "How far can you go down the mountain like this?"

As the sun set, the afterglow surrounded Su Rong. She stood in the light, closed her eyes and meditated, as if she was weighing the pros and cons. The hot air she exhaled was long and thin, like a kite.

After a long time, Su Rong opened his eyes and said apologetically, "Thank you."

Su Rong finally compromised, wrapping her arms lightly around Ru Yuan's neck, but there was a gap between her body and Ru Yuan's back, as if embarrassed.Ruyuan was also embarrassed, and tried her best to straighten her back and take Su Rong down the mountain, but she still touched Su Rong's softness from time to time, so she looked down at herself and secretly made a comparison.

Ruyuan became angry from embarrassment, and suddenly wanted to jump off the mountain in front of her to show her strength.Ru Yuan was thinking like this, but she only took a wrong step, Su Rong joked, "You don't want to go that way, do you?"

"..."

"The end of the road is a deep pool. If you can't get out, you will freeze to death. Why don't we walk in the sun?"

Ruyuan put down Su Rong and ran to explore the road. After a lap, she found that this was the only way to go to the end, so she lifted her feet and jumped to the side of the relatively flat road. After carrying Su Rong and the burden that had been waiting for a long time, she willingly began to take a long detour. .

Su Rong on her back was shivering from the cold, which was the complete opposite of Ru Yuan's sweating all over. The sun gradually went down, and Ru Yuan quickened her pace, but she still couldn't help asking this crucial question:

"What's wrong with you?"

"Insufficient Qi and blood... Cough, it's not a serious illness."

"sorry."

"Ok?"

"Your child is poisoned, but I can't save it."

"You did very well."

Looking back, Ru Yuan saw only the desolate temple on the western mountain covered in black mist, she couldn't help frowning: "That's your and Murong Xing's flesh and blood."

Ruyuan doesn't like or dislike children, her attitude has always been flat, but she is unexpectedly willing to get close to Su Rong's child, probably because the child always smiles at her when there is no one around, which has touched the softness in Ruyuan's heart.Although the child has not been named yet, Ruyuan has already chosen a name for him in her heart: Xiaobao.

When Xiaobao was poisoned, she cried a lot. Ruyuan was heartbroken when she heard it, and the crying is unforgettable to this day. Murong Xing, as the aunt, and Su Rong, as the biological mother, both praised their indifference when they heard Xiaobao’s first reaction, which is really disappointing. downright.

"Flesh and blood? No, I'm not Su Rong."

There was a faint gust of wind behind her ears, Ruyuan's scalp became numb, and she unconsciously let go of her hands.

The road down the mountain became narrower and narrower. At this time, it was only wide enough for one person to pass through. Su Rong landed unsteadily, and went to catch Ru Yuan, but tore off the big burden on Ru Yuan's shoulders, and rolled down the mountain together with the stones on the edge of the cliff. Can't be found in the blink of an eye.

"Don't move!" Su Rong held Ru Yuan's shoulder tightly, and spoke quickly, "I am not Murong Xing's sister, but I am indeed the Su Rong you know."

"Your face has changed."

"You have already confirmed that I am Su Rong, why bother to look at my face."

Ruyuan hesitated for a while, finally dared to hold the hand on the shoulder, turned around slowly, but only saw Su Rong's side face - full forehead, straight nose, long eyelashes, jade pendants on the ears shining warmly, the corners of the mouth The smile became more and more obvious.

To laugh in such a dangerous situation, only Su Rong dared to be so crazy.

Ruyuan said awkwardly: "I thought you were dead at the time, but because you were confused, I had to take off your clothes to confirm your identity. Please forgive me for the offense."

"I forgive you, who will forgive me?" Su Rong turned her eyes back from down the mountain, and stared at Ru Yuan with a serious face, "A son of two dynasties, if he is heartless now, what about his own flesh and blood? If he stays now, What about non-pros?"

Ruyuan felt that Su Rong seemed to be looking at others through herself, but she couldn't think of any similarities between herself and others. After thinking about it, she said honestly, "I don't know how to answer. .”

"My hand hurts now, when are you going to hold it?"

Ruyuan glanced at her feet, confirmed that Su Rong was not planning to let go after she stood firmly, and turned around to pull her forward.Along the way, Su Rong's whole body was cold, Ru Yuan didn't know how long it would take to warm up, but she was afraid of losing it, so she held her tighter, Su Rong struggled a little, and her fingers interlocked.

Ruyuan held a sword in her left hand and a man in her right, and couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth: "General Dan Xiao was furious because of the poisoning, and he patrolled suspicious people every day, but a strange accident gave me a chance to come out and look for you."

"You came early."

"Not early, if it is later, you are the one in the ruins now."

Although Su Rong was annoyed, she was also curious: "Has anyone ever told you that you have sharp teeth?"

"Yes, Murong Clan will cut off his tongue if he says something wrong. Many people expect me to be punished."

The Murong Clan does have many rules. Whether it is intentional or unintentional, if you are caught leaking information, you must cut off your tongue. Even if it is a major crime of betrayal, you must first cut off your tongue, then torture, and then die. The rules cannot be broken.

A wild child like Su Rong was bullied in Murong Sect very well in the beginning, thinking of Ru Yuan's torment in Murong Sect, Su Rong sympathized:

"Faithful words are harsh to the ear and good for deeds. No one can cut your tongue. You only need to promise me that I can speak without doing anything."

"I try my best."

The two saved their energy and stopped talking. They walked silently along the way. They could no longer see the desolate temple behind them. They could only use the black smoke from the desolate temple to mark the direction of the starting point. In front, there were faintly populated villages.

Suddenly, Ruyuan's hand was empty.

"I can't walk anymore." Su Rong said, hanging the burden on Ru Yuan's shoulders, and walked towards the shade of a tree by the side of the road, Ru Yuan turned around with the burden hanging on her shoulders, seeing Su Rong rubbing her hands while walking, she was in a good mood : "I can't walk anymore."

Ruyuan's brain is not sharp, but her physical strength is very good, she said she can't walk at this time, because she wanted to take care of Su Rong's bravado.Ruyuan was happy because she remembered what her mother said - when you are willing to take care of someone, it means you have not forgotten tolerance.

Su Rong didn't know what Ru Yuan was thinking, she sat down slowly against the tree, and took out a porcelain vase from her bosom.Seeing that Su Rong poured it directly into her mouth after opening it, Ruyuan was very surprised: What kind of medicine should I take like this?What disease has to eat so much?

Sensing Ru Yuan's gaze, Su Rong explained: "There are not many grains, and there is still a way to catch up. It would be too bad if I lost them."

Ru Yuanjiao received a blank look from Su Rong, remembering the big burden that was left on the cliff, and the temple, and sighed: "The mountain road is so difficult to walk, and the temple was not easy to build, but it was burned down by a fire." .”

"No, there are five roads leading to that temple, and we are taking the sixth road."

Ruyuan wanted to sit down, but she was afraid that the new clothes would be damaged, so she lifted the clothes and squatted down in front of Su Rong, asking for instructions: "Who are you waiting for? If your people don't come in time, can I solve the five ways?"

"They will arrive in time. If they don't arrive, you can kill the five roads." Su Rong said, looking at Ru Yuan, "Why are you so happy?"

Ruyuan hurriedly touched her face, but she didn't feel a smile, she was puzzled: "I didn't smile."

Su Rong and Ru Yuan had been in the palace for more than a year. Although the chances of encountering her were few and far between, Ru Yuan was also a taciturn person in her impression—including the side she met last night when she was reunited, she also showed her coldness.But now... the sum of what Su Rong and Ru Yuan said in the past is not as much as today. Although he didn't laugh, he was obviously excited. Maybe it's because the sword was stained with blood?

Su Rong had had enough rest, stood up and did simple activities, tore off a leaf from the tree and handed it to Ru Yuan.

"Put it in front of your eyes and look at me."

Ruyuan got up and took Ye Zi and did so, but she didn't see any way to do it, she was putting Ye down suspiciously, but she saw Su Rong's eyes were sad.

"Lu Nuo always opposes me because of Murong Xing's backing, and because of Murong Xing's acquiescence in Lu Nuo's behavior, the two of us are in this situation. Murong Xing can't get the rain and dew even, there will always be times when the boat will be overturned. The matter of poison is to kill the last drop of my trust in her. I know that I am just a pawn to Murong Xing, just like Ji Wen is, Lu Nuo is, Zhong Li is, Dan Xiao is... She never thought But I will jump off the chessboard, and I feel unwilling, so why not me?"

Ruyuan was annoyed: "I still took the initiative..."

"Oh, if you don't take the initiative to run in front of her, you are also in her grasp—Murong Xing asked you to watch the night, and told Lu Nuo to poison you, just to dig out the person I planted in the palace. I doubt you. Murong Xing is ruthless, I can only be more ruthless than her, I have left no one in the palace except you. But if you don't take action, the child is successfully poisoned and Zhong Li is killed, Murong Xing acquiesced to Zhong Li Carp went to take care of the children during the mourning period, presumably for the worst result to have someone take the blame."

Ru Yuan digested Su Rong's words, and secretly rejoiced after being afraid: "Fortunately, General Dan Xiao was in time, the poisoning of the child is not deep, and she will not be wronged."

"Whoever Lu Nuo wants to poison to death, no one can save him. Besides how far the general's mansion is from the deep palace, how could he appear in time..."

Ruyuan heard Su Rong's meaning, and she was even more surprised when she recalled the details: "You mean... Lu Nuo didn't poison? Did someone notify General Dan Xiao?!"

"Although Lu Nuo is good at using poison, he has set two rules: children and the elderly. Presumably everyone knows her rules, so no one suspects her..." Su Rong said, the appearance of a miracle doctor appeared in his mind , smiled wryly in his heart: Maybe it was Lu Nuo who had poisoned him, and an expert could save him.

Ruyuan naturally knew Lu Nuo's rules, and she felt chills at the moment: After Murong Xing came to the throne, rumors about Lu Nuo's noble background became more and more popular. He was an assassin who was wronged, but in the end, Lu Nuo did not return to his original identity, and no one in Xuanyuan Continent knew that Lu Hou still had a successor.

"Lu Nuo...why don't you go back to Lu Hou's mansion?"

Su Rong let out a deep breath, and sighed: "Lu Hou once ordered a marriage for Lu Nuo, she doesn't want to marry, she just wants to accompany Murong Xing Xing."

"Who is the other party?"

"Lvhou offended Longlin back then to protect Danxiao to the death. Who do you think is the man in the marriage letter?"

Ru Yuan took a step forward, staring at Su Rong, desperately wanting to find an answer from her mouth: "Even if Lu Nuo doesn't marry, the kindness is still there, but she was terribly afraid of Dan Xiao..."

Su Rong looked at Ru Yuan without saying a word, the more Ru Yuan became anxious, the more Su Rong became silent.

Ruyuan felt an ominous premonition from Su Rong's silence, she was anxious and said to herself: "She lied to me? She said that Murong Xing's order to protect you was false, and she wanted to kill you, but I stopped, I saved you..."

"She killed me because she wanted to die in my hands..."

Ruyuan was like being struck by five thunders, her whole body trembled when she touched Su Rong's gaze, the leaf in her hand fell to the ground, rolled into dust, and was blown up again by a gust of wind, and was swept away to nowhere.

Lu Nuo didn't want to marry, and Murong Xing forced her to marry. Who would have thought that Lu Nuo would poison others for half his life, and finally poison himself to death--Lu Nuo lost, not to Su Rong, but to Murong Xing.

Su Rong no longer looked like a kite, turned her back, and exhaled a long white thin layer in the air, as if she wanted to exhale all the heat in her body to express that she was a living person with a beating heart.

"One leaf blinds your eyes, you don't see affection, you don't know affection."
