Spring and autumn

Xun Hui went back to Jin State two days after he was in Shangsi. First, he received a letter from Zhao Xu, and second, it was ironic that the bright spring scenery of Jinghua was so ironic.

Jinhe is like a practice, and beauties are like clouds, but he really has no time to appreciate them.Walking along the river, there are curious girls looking at him, but he can't help laughing at himself, he doesn't know what's so good about his despondent look.

The spring in the state of Chu is really touching, but there is no such warm spring in the state of Jin.However, the snow in the state of Jin is unique. Hengzhou under the extreme northern glacier has always been a world of ice and snow, but after passing Heixe and heading south, the snow in Taicheng, Ganzhou is as gentle as velvet flowers, fluttering like catkins blown by the wind. full of pathos.Ice and snow have always been Xun Hui's favorite thing, probably because of this, he also likes ice-carved teenagers.

The couples in twos and threes by the Jin River are scattered like wild flowers and become the dots of scenery on the lawn on the river bank. The sprouting spring heart will always make the mind hot, and at a glance, the lovers over there are already embracing on the ground. Can't see either.That figure is very similar to the boy in his heart, but apart from being small and exquisite, his whole body has a different temperament. The young master who always rejects people thousands of miles away will not be so enthusiastic in front of the public, He gnawed on the girl's chest openly.

He should be a calm and restrained young man. When reading a book at the same table, he will not be rejected if he can't bear to lie on his lap.The fire in the study was burning brightly, which kept the cold weather from melting snow out. The young man was only wearing a single coat. From here, he could see his collarbone looming under a thin layer. The book did not cover him. Xun Hui was dazed and lost.

Is the boy who embraced him like that really no longer in this world?

Xun Hui was extremely nervous when he came, feeling faintly that he had escaped from the sky, eager to confirm, but afraid to confirm.Zhao Xu will definitely not let go of this biggest threat. Wei Fan is a reliable helper. He thought that the matter was done cleanly, but he did not expect that it still aroused Zhao Xu's suspicion.This time, he was sent as an envoy to Chu State, not only because using Xiangguo can improve the diplomatic level, but also because he knew that he would not be able to resist trying to find someone. Besides, based on the relationship between Jinguang and him, maybe he would show traces.

No matter how entangled he was, he went to look for it, otherwise he wouldn't have sneaked back after leaving Jinghua, but even he couldn't find it, and there was no news in the vast world.

He didn't have to worry about how to make up words when he went back, but he still felt pain in his heart and couldn't get rid of it.

In Xun Hui's eyes, this unfamiliar Xinjing is full of darkness. Although it is as busy as Jinghua, there is no trace of spring, and it only makes people feel cold.

Xun Hui got off the car in front of the palace gate, pulled on his robe, and wanted to go in, but was blocked by the guards.

"What are you doing? I'm going back and forth to report to the Lord." Facing the ashen-faced guard who didn't explain, Xun Hui felt displeased with being humiliated.

"Xiangguo has worked hard all the way!" Wei Fan in armor suddenly came out from inside, and explained with a slight smile, "Xiangguo doesn't need to report back, Your Majesty already knows everything."

Why did Wei Fan appear in the palace?Looking at the richly decorated belt he put on his armor, it is already the attire that can only be worn when he is promoted to Master You.The last time Zhao Xu said those words to scare him, it proved that Mingcha Qiuhao had doubts about Wei Fan a long time ago, so why did he call this double-minded general back from Bingling Pass and get promoted?

Xun Hui was taken aback for a moment, and held back his words when he wanted to ask another question. It seemed that Zhao Xu was just using Wei Fan to test him, but as a prime minister, he couldn't even see the king. The one who really suffered the most suspicion was actually himself, right? ?

"Then ask General Wei to help Daojun go to safety, and I'll go back to the government office." Wei Fan said goodbye nervously, holding his sword and raising his hand to see him off, and Xun Hui took his robe and got into the car again.

Wei Fan watched him go away, then turned back to look at the closed hall on the high platform in the palace gate, the smile on the corner of his mouth slowly disappeared, and his expression became as pale as a guard.

The atmosphere in the main hall was delicate, dozens of secret performances were randomly placed all over the floor.When the woman came in from the side door with tea, the slip of the letter that had been violently thrown hit her feet, she lifted her foot to let it go, and stared blankly at the table where Zhao Xu's eyes full of depression gradually became peaceful.

Holding his forehead with one hand, he sighed wearily: "It's Zhiyan, come in."

Zhiyan came in with the tea tray and put it down, glanced at the thing that had fallen to the ground, and asked, "What happened again that made your majesty so worried?"

Taking a sip of tea and suppressing his resentment, Zhao Xu didn't want to tell the truth, but only vaguely said: "It's nothing."

Is he not even willing to tell the truth to her now?Zhigang pursed his lips, feeling a little hurt, and then asked with a teasing smile, "Ziren seems to be back?"

"Yes, he is on an envoy to Chu State, and he is coming back today." Zhao Xu responded, beckoning for someone to clean up the mess in this place.

The dangerous aura on his body faded away, and it seemed that he could have a good chat again, so Zhiyan put down his guard and said with a smile: "Then your majesty is going to meet him later?"

"No." Zhao Xu shook his head, "He didn't complete the task I gave, I don't want to see him."

"Task?" Zhiyan asked suspiciously.

Being asked such a question, Zhao Xu suddenly raised his head to stare at her, those eyes that seemed to have changed a little compared to before were like an unfathomable abyss, staring at her back with chills.

Zhiyan's smile gradually disappeared, don't dare to look at him: "Your Majesty, why... look at me like this..."

Zhao Xu tilted his head and continued to stare at her, without any emotion in his tone: "I asked him to find Jin Guang, but he came back empty-handed."

When Jin Guang was mentioned, Zhi Qing's face changed, Zhao Xu frowned, and let her go in disappointment, watching the servants quickly put away the slips on the ground, piled them neatly on several desks, and then retreated.Standing up and stroking the slips of the case, Zhao Xu went on to say: "These are the letters from the people I sent to follow him, saying that he lost his soul in Chu State because he couldn't find Jin Guang."

"Jin Guang..." In order to cover up his changed expression, he quietly turned his back, knowing that he mentioned it on purpose, but Zhi Yan still couldn't help the sting in his words, "Don't you want him to die the most? Even Ziren can't find him now, he must have died in Bingling Pass..."

"Do you want him to die?" The hand stroking the letter suddenly stopped, and Zhao Xu interrupted her.

He actually asked the question so directly, smart people know how to answer, but Zhiyan can't answer, no matter who it is, death is an extremely cruel thing, let alone an unforgettable old friend, with whom she loves deeply Between the married husbands, they don't know when they will be able to avenge their grievances.Gritting her teeth, she almost risked her life, turned to look at Zhao Xu, and sincerely begged: "I don't want him to die, in fact, I hope no one will die. Can't you let him go? This turmoil is your choice." Let’s start with it, Jin You can still be safe by abdicating in the name of the Son of Heaven, why can’t you also set up a situation to protect him? If he really wanted to fight against you, he would have caused trouble in Chu State long ago. Ziren can't find his whereabouts either? Almost two months have passed, and you have calmed down the entire state of Jin with your great courage, so why are you still holding on to him?"

What she said chilled Zhao Xu, and the anger that could not be dispelled by a cup of tea was driven mad by the cold air, his face was shaking with anger, and the words of the conclusion were also gritted: "You still like it?" Is he? You really like him, right? "

The raging anger burning on his body made people fear instinctively, Zhiyan looked at him incredulously, and took two steps back tremblingly.

"I knew you liked him!" He roared like a lion, "You don't want him to die from the bottom of your heart, and you even expect him to bring troops back to seize the throne, right? But let me tell you, he's hiding now A traitor, and you are Mrs. Jin and my Mrs. Zhao Xu, this is a fact that no one can change!"

"No... I didn't..." Before the fury of a beast, all explanations seemed so pale and powerless. Being forced to the corner, Zhiyan's whole body was shaking violently, and his legs were about to fall when he was stared at like a man-eating man. , Zhao Xu grabbed her waist in time, Zhiyan didn't pay attention, and slammed into his upright chest, "Let me go! Let me go..."

"You've been begging for everything, haven't you? You just want to win Madam's right to say such things to me?" Zhao Xu restrained her struggle with all her strength, and vented all the depression these days without any choice. When it came to her, he smiled coldly, like a ghost from hell, "How do you want me to prove it? Do I need to remind you of your identity all the time? Is it like this!"

Zhiyan never thought so, now she understands, he is a devil!Unable to avoid the hands that were frantically grabbing her clothes, she struggled out of a mess.The world was turned upside down, the considerate man at the wedding disappeared, ghosts and ghosts were everywhere, and there was only madness in the world.Desperation spread, and in desperation, Zhigang touched the hairpin on his head with one hand, pulled it out without thinking, and tied it indiscriminately.Zhao Xu screamed and couldn't dodge it, he let go in pain, Zhiyan fell to the ground, picked up the scattered clothes and clutched his chest indiscriminately.

The movement was too loud, causing the palace door to open wide, and Wei Fan rushed in.

The scene in front of him was really surprising. When he saw an outsider coming in, Zhao Xu subconsciously turned his body to cover the wound.

Looking at the silent Zhao Xu, and at the embarrassed Zhi Yan, Wei Fan still had to dutifully ask, "Your Majesty...are you okay?"

"It's okay, let's all back down." Really unwilling to be seen by this embarrassing scene, Zhao Xu denied a possible act of regicide.Hearing that Wei Fan led the people out to close the palace door, he turned around and looked at Zhiyan who was sitting on the ground blankly, her fingertips were still stained with blood, which belonged to him.

The hairpin pierced Zhao Xu's right shoulder with little force, but blood beads came out.Zhao Xu didn't want to pursue it, not only because Zhiyan would surely die if he pursued it, but also because this hairpin was given to his bride when he got married.

The newlywed girl looked shy, and as her husband, he personally inserted the hairpin in her bun.

Without the restraint of the hairpin, at this moment, her black hair was like a waterfall, and she was sitting on the ground in shock, completely embarrassed.

See what he has done?Bullying his wife for an irrelevant man?

Enduring the pain and pulling out the hairpin, Zhao Xu walked over slowly.After this encounter, Zhiyan was obviously a little afraid of him, she didn't dare to raise her head, her trembling body betrayed her fear.

Zhao Xu didn't explain much, but bent down and handed the hairpin to her, and said softly, "You should also step back."

Zhiyan raised his head unexpectedly, his lips trembling, his face pale.Zhao Xu closed his eyes not to look at her fragility, and said in a deep voice, "Just pretend that what happened today never happened, and I won't bring it up again."

As he said that, he turned around and went to the table, Zhiyan stood up slowly, holding the hairpin and staring at his back in a daze.

Knowing that she hadn't left yet, he felt more and more powerless with his heavy heart, and his voice was as desolate as the wind: "Believe it or not, I didn't provoke the storm, but I can't let him go."

Zhigang's expression did not change, but the hand holding the hairpin became tighter and tighter, watching the Junshang, who had been demonized by the outside world, slumped down on the steps leading to the throne.
