Looking at the mountains and rivers

Night, silent.

In the room in the south courtyard of Wangfu, Fang Ming lit up the candle, lowered his head and undressed his master.The light-colored brocade jacket that was replaced on the side was covered with grass clippings and dirt, and it looked disfigured. The back and elbows were particularly damaged, obviously worn out on the rocks.

When Yang Yan left at noon, he ordered him to take the copybooks on the table and send them to the store for mounting, so he knew that the young master's visit was probably inappropriate.However, he never expected that the new prince would be so vicious that he would drive the fierce horse to trample his own younger brother. After the young master came back, his expression was in a daze. Resisted not to say much.

He gently wrung out the towel, and carefully wiped the young master's face, only to see bloodstains from scratches on his cheeks, reflected on the white jade-like skin, which made him very shocked.Fang Ming endured and endured, and finally said without anger: "My lord, why is this prince worse than the previous one, and they insist on making things difficult for you!"

Yang Yan shook his head lightly, and asked softly, "Mr. Han has been here?"

"Yes!" Fang Ming hurriedly said, "My lord, you were just called away today, so I went to Dongfang according to your words, and took the copybook to that Yimo studio."

Yimozhai is just an ordinary framed shop, the only unusual thing is that the clerk in the shop was originally Lan Tailing Han Ping's book boy, and the copybooks sent to be framed are also ordinary, with only the words "Autumn is so so, Unbearably cold."

Yang Yan nodded slightly: "Mr. has just returned to the capital and is busy with traveling here, and it is really hard."

After Fang Ming wiped his face for him, he sighed again: "But it's still a step too late. I heard that today's racecourse is extremely dangerous. If it weren't for Brother Wei... the consequences would be unimaginable."

"Wei Changxuan..." Yang Yan raised his eyes and muttered.

Fang Ming quietly watched his expression, understood the reason for his daze, and sighed: "Master, are you worried about Big Brother Wei? He is a lucky man with a natural appearance, so he must be fine." He clicked his tongue and said, "I heard from the people present today that the horse is like a giant beast, and anyone who sees it is afraid. I didn't expect Brother Wei to be able to tame it."

He lowered his head and wrung out the towel: "Actually, when I first came to serve you, I thought he was very unusual. He was different from us." He sighed, "Brother Wei has a lot of money." He is heroic, so I guess he will leave the mansion sooner or later, but unexpectedly, he really left later."

Yang Yan was silent and did not speak. After a while, he suddenly said, "Fang Ming, why don't you go to the Habayashi Guard Camp?"

Fang Ming was stunned for a moment: "Young Master, do you want me to see Big Brother Wei?"

"I don't know how he is hurt, and I am always worried." Yang Yan frowned, seeming very worried.

Fang Ming felt a rare sense of anxiety from his words, he straightened up quickly: "Young master, don't worry, I'll go to the Habayashi Guard camp right away."

He hurriedly put on his coat and went out. Before he could reach the courtyard door, he heard a soft sound on the wall. Someone jumped in. Before he could make a sound, he heard a "shh" from that person : "Fang Ming, it's me."

After Fang Ming saw the familiar face clearly in the night, he was so startled that he stuttered: "Brother Wei... Brother Wei, you... aren't you injured?"

Wei Changxuan raised his hand and touched his nose as a cover-up: "You know this too? It's just a small injury."

Fang Ming saw that his neckline was open indiscriminately, revealing the traces of the bandage on his chest, and the blood scabs on his fingernails. It can be seen that the injury was really serious during the day, so he couldn't help sighing: "Since you are injured, why are you running around? Are you still climbing over the wall in the middle of the night, aren't you afraid of slipping your foot and adding injury to injury?"

Wei Changxuan didn't bother to answer his series of questions, he just raised his head and looked behind him: "Where is your son?"

"It's inside the house," Fang Ming pointed, then recalled, "Did you come here all of a sudden just to see the young master?"

"I..." Wei Changxuan seemed a little hesitant, "I have something to tell him, you go down first, I will go in by myself."

Fang Ming nodded blankly.

Wei Changxuan pushed open the door, and saw Yang Yan sitting under the window, wearing a thin jade-colored cloak.When he heard the sound of the door being pushed, he raised his eyes and looked over, his eyelashes trembling slightly, as if he was uncertain: "Who is it?"

Wei Changxuan approached him, seeing the bright scars on his cheeks reflected by the candlelight, he couldn't help sighing: "Yexi, does the injury still hurt?"

"Wei Changxuan?" Yang Yan stood up abruptly, the cloak that Xu Xu was wearing on his body slipped down, his eyes widened, "Why are you here?"

Wei Changxuan was afraid that he would catch cold, so he untied his cloak to wrap him up, and tried his best to speak in a calm tone, "I'll come and see you."

Yang Yan touched the warm cloth on his body, it was Habayashi Wei's cloak, the tentacles were a little rough, but it was extremely warm.He hesitated for a moment: "Why are you in Yuma Garden today?"

Hearing him mention this, Wei Changxuan said sullenly: "I first entered the Habayashi Guard, but I was not good at currying favor with the officers of those aristocratic families, and they were not very willing to support me. Chen Shao knew about my adoptive father and was worried about me. For a while, I was always unhappy, so I asked his uncle for a patrol in the southern suburbs, saying that it would let me relax." He lowered his head, looked at Yang Yan, and said suddenly, "Fortunately, fortunately, I am there, otherwise... ...I can't even think about it."

Yang Yan bit her lip, her voice trembling: "You feel lucky, but do you know what I think?"

Wei Changxuan felt a little strange, and cupped his face: "What's wrong with you?"

"I'd rather you not be here," his tears suddenly rolled down big and big, "I'd rather be alone, even if I'm trampled to death by a horse, than standing there today, knowing that you are in danger, but doing nothing Can't do it. Wei Changxuan, do you know that I have never hated myself so much for not being able to see!"

Wei Changxuan was shaken by the despair in his voice, he hugged Yang Yan, and whispered in his ear: "Yexi, I'm not here properly."

Yang Yan stretched out his hand in a daze, caressing his cheek and the corners of his lips, he finally covered Wei Changxuan's eyes with his hand, he felt itchy in his palm, and the eyelashes were still fluttering in his palm like butterfly wings .

Wei Changxuan hugged him for a while, then suddenly said: "Did you know that Yan Yu has launched troops in the northwest."

Yang Yan's voice was faint: "Really?"

Wei Changxuan nodded: "This time we really want to start a war. In addition to the garrison in Anyang, the court will also send an imperial army to help." He paused. To follow the army out of camp."

Yang Yan was stunned, and suddenly broke out of his arms, and said sharply, "What did you say?"

Wei Changxuan had never seen him so excited, and he was a little dazed: "I'm going to the front to fight against the enemy, what's wrong?"

Yang Yan was convinced of what he heard, his face changed suddenly, and he said decisively: "I won't let you go!"

Wei Changxuan guessed that he would be surprised, but he didn't expect such a big reaction. He was silent for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Yexi, I don't want to go on like this anymore, do you understand?"

He raised his head and looked out of the half-covered window, the autumn wind was everywhere and the night was dark.

"After the foster father died, I always blamed myself, why didn't I hurry up that day, and hurry up to his side before he drank the glass of poisoned wine. But later I understood, even if I arrived at that time What's the use, I can't save him, the one who wants to kill him is Xie Ao, the boundless power. I'm just a nobody, even if I can escape with my adoptive father, I can't escape the power's palm." He clenched his teeth tightly teeth, and said to Yang Yan, "Just like today, I know that your third brother intends to kill you, but I can't kill him with a single sword! No matter whether your eldest brother or your third brother is in charge of the Mu Palace, our lives cannot be killed." Hold it in your own hands. Yexi, I've had enough of this kind of life."

He suddenly stretched out his hand and pushed the window open, and the cold wind rushed in immediately, filling his throat with chills: "So, I'm going to the battlefield, I want to make outstanding military exploits, I want to stand out, and then Don't let people look down on you!" He said in a deep voice as if making an oath, "I won't let anyone hurt my important person again, only then will the fate of me and you be truly in my own hands. "

Yang Yan already felt the other party's determination from his sonorous words, but he slowly shook his head and said word by word: "Wei Changxuan, I won't let you go!"

Wei Changxuan was a little stunned. They had known each other for so many years, and Yang Yan always followed his wishes. He had never opposed it so stubbornly today. He couldn't help asking, "Why?"

"Wei Changxuan, do you know where the battlefield is!" Yang Yan suddenly reached out and grabbed his skirt, almost roaring, "The battlefield is not the backyard where you fought when you were young, nor is it where you fight today. The racecourse, on the battlefield, will die!"

"Yexi..." Wei Changxuan seemed a little at a loss when he was grabbed by him like this. He never knew that Yang Yan would have such great strength, so he was speechless in surprise.

"You want to go to the battlefield and kill the enemy before the battle. Do you want me to wait for you to come back in Jian'an thousands of miles away?" I am here, and I thought you were by my side in my sleep. But when I opened my eyes, I received an urgent report that you died in battle. Wei Changxuan, what do you think I will do!"

He buried his face in Wei Changxuan's chest, crying loudly: "What should I do!"

He cried so sadly that Wei Changxuan's nasal cavity was sore. He wanted to comfort him, but he didn't know how to speak. In the end, he just said dryly, "Yexi, I won't die."

Wei Changxuan paused, and then said: "Believe in me, I will come back properly, and I will take you out when I have made military achievements and got an official position. At that time, there will only be the two of us, and no one will be able to control you." us, okay?"

"I don't want you to make any military achievements! I just want you to live well." Yang Yan gritted his teeth and said, he wanted to say that you shouldn't even go to the Habayashi Guard, you just need to stay by my side and be my own Wei Changxuan. "

"Of course I will live a good life." Wei Changxuan repeated this promise, almost finding it funny, but looking at Yang Yan like this, he couldn't laugh.

Yang Yan's face was mottled with tears, and he whispered: "You know, after being subjected to the nightmare technique that time, I always had nightmares, dreaming that you were dead. I obviously couldn't see it, but the fear seemed to be drilled into you. It got into my bones and made me shudder just thinking about it, the pain you don't understand."

Wei Changxuan felt a pain in his heart when he heard it, and he wiped the tears on Yang Yan's face: "Yexi, I won't die, I swear."

Yang Yan was startled, and suddenly grabbed his wrist: "You swear?"

"Yes, I swear."

Yang Yan nodded, his face became extremely cold, and he held Wei Changxuan's wrist tightly: "Then make a poisonous oath, and I will let you go."

Wei Changxuan looked at his expressionless face, his heart suddenly trembled, he nodded and said: "Okay, if you want me to swear, I will stand."

Yang Yan grabbed him and walked out of the house. There was no one else here, and it was extremely quiet.Yang Yan pulled him and knelt down on the ground together. He said in a cold voice, "Follow me."

Wei Changxuan never wanted to be persecuted by others, but because the other party was Yang Yan, he forced himself to endure it, but there was an inexplicable annoyance in his heart, he let out a heavy breath, and said, "Say it."

"I, Wei Changxuan, go out this time, if I can't..."

Wei Changxuan read to him, but felt a little helpless in his heart, secretly thought Yexi was still childish, I have no relatives and no reason, if I really die on the battlefield, who will this poisonous oath be fulfilled?

Yang Yan closed his eyes, and slowly said: "If he can't return safely, Yang Yan will be smashed to pieces, and he will die without a place to bury him."

This sentence was like thunder, and Wei Changxuan was stunned on the spot when he heard it. When he came back to his senses, he suddenly covered Yang Yan's mouth, and shouted, "What nonsense are you talking about?" He said silently, "Gods and Buddhas from all directions are above, Yexi is just a child talking nonsense, you gods, Buddhas and Bodhisattvas must not take it seriously."

He remembered that when he said something wrong in the past, his adoptive father confessed to the invisible gods in this way, and he let go of Yang Yan after he finished speaking.But seeing that his eyes were full of tears, he choked up and said, "Wei Changxuan, don't you know that if you can't come back, I won't be able to live."

"Yexi..." Wei Changxuan suddenly couldn't say a word, he thought infinitely sadly, what would Yexi do if he was gone.

The two of them leaned against each other in the dark courtyard, as they had done so many cold nights a few years ago.Yang Yan's voice was rustling from crying, and he whispered: "Are you really going, in case..." He bit his lower lip, "In case the third brother wants to trouble me again, no one will come protect me."

He said so aggrieved, with his eyelashes downcast and pitiful, Wei Changxuan's heart softened, but he still patted his head and said, "He probably won't trouble you again for a while."

"how?"

"During dinner today, he sent someone to send the Gale Horse outside our camp as a thank you for saving you." Wei Changxuan shook his head, "He won't come to win me over for nothing, it must be because of you Yan Yu is now at war, and the most valued person in this battle is your grandfather. Although Yang Jue is ruthless and stupid, he must still be aware of current affairs. I guess he will not act rashly again until the end of this war .”

Yang Yan lowered his head, sighed, he stood up slowly, and walked into his room: "Come here."

Wei Changxuan followed him without knowing why, and walked into the inner room, but saw him walk to the big cabinet along the wall, and slowly opened the drawer.Wei Changxuan hurriedly said, "What are you looking for, I'll call Fang Ming over."

Yang Yan shook his head: "No need." He groped in the dark for a while, "I've found it."

What he took out was a dagger wrapped in a leather sheath, about three or four feet long, and it looked dark and old.He handed the dagger to Wei Changxuan: "You take this, take it with you for self-defense."

Wei Changxuan took the dagger and took a look, only to see that it was forged with the highest craftsmanship.He knew that most daggers couldn't cut people on the battlefield, but in the end he didn't want to disobey Yang Yan's kindness, and put it in his bosom: "I will definitely take it, just treat it as yours." stay with me."

They talked in the middle of the night, and the drum outside the house had already been beaten five times. Wei Changxuan woke up like a dream: "The soldiers will be ordered at Maoshi, and I have to go back to the camp to pack my luggage. Yexi, I have to go."

Yang Yan took a step forward, stretched out his hand, and grabbed Wei Changxuan's sleeve, as if reluctant to let go, he called him in a low voice: "Wei Changxuan."

Wei Changxuan had mixed feelings in his heart, he lowered his head, and covered Yang Yan's lips, his lips were still slightly cool, with a little salty taste of tears.Wei Changxuan closed his eyes, as if he wanted to engrave this moment in his heart forever, he kissed for a long time, and finally pulled away hardened his heart: "Yexi, I'm leaving."
