Chapter 26 Winter Return

When Zhao Jun got up the next day, Chen Ke had already gone out, and Chen Ke hadn't come back when he was sleeping at night.

Zhao Jun "suffered bitterly" during the days when Chen Ke went out early and returned late every day, and had not seen Chen Ke for half a month.

On the first day, Cang Cang took him to the back mountain for a walk, and accidentally found a rabbit and some small animals.Then I heard Cang Cang say that all the animals here can be hunted, because they usually buy and raise them themselves, but the white deer cannot be hunted.

The next day, Zhao Jun didn't know where to find the bow and arrows. After discussing with a few servants, they went out without telling Cang Cang.Finally, when Cang Cang was about to use gray voices to send a message to Chen Ke that Zhao Jun was not there, a group of people came back laughing and jokingly carrying a few hunted animals.The favorability of those who followed Zhao Jun skyrocketed.

On the third day, I sat in front of the brazier with a group of people, and I didn't know what I was thinking about.

On the fourth day, Cang Cang didn't know where Zhao Jun went, but walked back from the mountain alone in the twilight.She felt that if she continued like this, she would die.

In the next few days, I calmed down a bit and didn't run out. Sometimes I sat on the edge of the cliff watching the scenery alone, and sometimes I looked into the distance alone in a daze.

When Chen Ke woke up one morning, he found that there was heavy snow falling in layers, crushing the plum trees on the opposite cliff.At this time, the plum blossoms under the snow are like living spirits, one by one blooming against the strong wind is pleasing to the eye, and the flowers seem to be much larger than usual.

He looked at the mountain road and felt that he could no longer go down.After coming back these few days, Cang Cang has been listening to Zhao Jun's situation. In the first two days, Cang Cang wanted to jump up and beat Zhao Jun.Later, she would laugh as she talked, and said involuntarily, "It's so comfortable to be with him."

He relayed these to Luo Qize and the others in the city, and a group of people began clamoring to come up to visit. Finally, Chen Ke summed up Zhao Jun's daily routine—no matter going to the room for three days, and no matter climbing the wall for two days.

Even Gu Zhi who sneaked out of the palace said, "It's really interesting. I got to know your servants and maids so quickly. It's an extraordinary affinity."

"That's not it." Chen Ke continued, "You didn't see him say goodbye to people before he left. He almost finished saying goodbye to the whole city!"

Luo Qize asked him how Zhao Jun's injury was, and Chen Ke nodded: "The drinking you said may really help, he's much better. But I haven't seen him for a long time, I just listened to what Cang Cang told me."

"What do you mean you haven't seen him for a long time?" Liu Benmo sat on the side with no expression: "Don't you live under the same roof as him?"

Chen Ke was speechless for a while: "I will definitely see him if I live with him? You people drink and eat meat every day, looking for fun everywhere, have you ever experienced that I have to deal with first-class people like Prime Minister Zhu Ruojiang every day? Go out early and return late every day Yes... Zhao Jun's life is very regular, and he was almost asleep when I went back."

Everyone nodded in thought, gloating on their faces.

Gu Zhi asked him, "What is Jiang Buqing looking for you again?"

Chen Ke sighed and said: "It's not about those bad things, by the way, you have to be wary of them, especially Jiang Buqing's party, I'm afraid they will do things sooner."

Gu Zhi snorted from the tip of his nose: "I still need to be afraid of them, but everyone will catch a lot of things in my hands, and anyone who can figure it out will not come back to seek death."

Chen Ke squinted at him, and reminded aloud: "Don't be careless, it's better to be careful."

Gu Zhi waved his hand, signaling that he himself would pay attention.

When Zhao Jun woke up, he felt that it was a lot colder today. He hurriedly put on his clothes and even added a layer of jacket before he dared to go out. When he walked to the promenade, he heard a gust of wind passing by, and only the sound of breathing could be heard between the two cliffs. The sound of blowing the wind, and occasionally speaking to the people behind you, you have to raise your voice, otherwise you still can't hear clearly.

Zhao Jun looked at the snow scene falling freely in the mountains, took a breath, and just wanted to imitate what those poets said, but he sneezed before the brewing was finished.

He gathered up his clothes awkwardly and walked towards the hall.Cang Cang wanted to laugh behind her back but did not dare to laugh, Zhao Jun walked a few steps, looked at her helplessly, with a faint connivance in his eyes: "If you want to laugh, just laugh."

Cang Cang blushed, she was much older than Zhao Jun, this was the first time a little kid spoke to her in such a tone.A little funny and a little novel.

Zhao Jun walked to the breakfast place as usual. On the way, he met a few servants who went with him, so they walked together, laughing and laughing all the way there.

When Zhao Jun saw Chen Ke sitting at the table with his head lowered and slowly drinking a bowl of porridge, he was taken aback, and turned to look at the people walking beside him, who also looked back at him in bewilderment.

The group of people froze for a moment, the servant finally understood and came over to salute, Zhao Jun called out in embarrassment: "Good morning, General."

Chen Ke heard a group of people chattering and laughing as they approached here. He originally wanted to scare them, but then he thought that sitting here might be a scare to them, so he felt similar to them. When it was time to arrive, I picked up the bowl and covered up my expression of wanting to laugh a little.

So what Zhao Jun and the others saw was Chen Ke's expressionless face and the expression that he slightly raised his eyes over the bowl in front of him and gave them a cool look.

Chen Ke moved the bowl and said, "Sit down."

Chen Ke's own voice startled him, and he was inexplicably hoarse, so he immediately heard Zhao Jun ask him: "General, do you have a cold?"

Chen Ke put down the bowl, looked at Zhao Jun who was approaching and cleared his throat, his voice returned to its original state, and he said without any ups and downs: "It's nothing."

Zhao Jun looked at his expression, served a bowl of porridge from the side, and asked tentatively, "Are you angry?"

Chen Ke picked up the bowl again.

Looking at his action, Zhao Jun felt that it was unusual, and thought about it carefully: "General, is it really okay for you to deceive us like this?"

Chen Ke put down the bowl and asked him, "Why are you afraid of me? I'm such a kind person."

"..."

After the two finished their meal, Chen Ke asked Zhao Jun who was sitting beside him, "Going out?"

"Huh? Where to go?"

Chen Ke didn't answer him either, just let him follow.

Zhao Jun followed behind him, Chen Ke didn't wear a crown today, and Taihe never had the habit of wearing a crown every day after men crowned.He only used a long cyan hairband to loosely tie a small half of his hair. His clothes were still off-white, but there was a delicate cold plum on the hem, which still looked unbloomed. The thin thread embroidered the appearance of a small plum tree, occasionally raised his hand, and printed it with the hair band.

Zhao Jun thought: Why didn't you think that the general wore such clothes before...

He felt that his brain capacity could not find a suitable word to describe him.

The only way is that people are like rainbows, and you will know when you meet them.

Chen Ke led him to turn left and right all the way, and finally turned to a suspension bridge.

The suspension bridge connected the cliffs on both sides, and the top was only paved with wooden boards. Under the strong wind, Zhao Jun felt that it might not be able to hold on.

But he blurted out: "Are we going over there?"

"..." What is this excited-sounding voice for.

Chen Ke looked back at him: "Do you want to go there?"

Zhao Jun nodded quickly: "Of course, it's very exciting to watch."

"..."

When Chen Ke led him up, he urged him thousands of times, telling him to hold on to the rope on the side.Zhao Jun's eyes sparkled, and he said, "General, let's go, I know."

"..."

Chen Ke walked in front of Zhao Jun, and the strong wind blew his hair up, and if he didn't pay attention, it would make his hair smeared all over his face.

Zhao Jun was also in the same situation. When he first stepped up, he felt fine, but when he was about to walk in the middle, the wind speed suddenly increased a lot, and the cold wind involuntarily blew on his face fiercely, every time it seemed to kill him. A piece of flesh was cut off from his face.

Halfway through the walk, he couldn't hold on anymore, so he tried to shrink his body size as much as possible, thinking that this would reduce the impact force, so he clung to the rope tightly and stopped.

Chen Ke didn't feel any movement behind him, so he held his hair in one hand and turned to look at Zhao Jun.

When he saw Zhao Junka standing there motionless, he became ruthless, let go of the hand holding the rope, and let the wind blow him to the side where Zhao Jun was standing.

He moved over step by step, and when it was about the same time, he stretched out a hand towards Zhao Jun.

Zhao Jun's heart ached when he saw Chen Ke let go of the rope, and he was relieved when Chen Ke firmly tied his side of the rope.

He saw Chen Ke walking towards him step by step, and then slowly extended a hand to him.

Chen Ke's hair was completely blown to the side, and then his entire face was revealed, sharp and cold, and there was a long wound on the palm of his outstretched hand.

At that moment, Zhao Jun stretched out his hand without hesitation, as if delivering it.

Chen Ke pushed Zhao Jun to his side, bowed his head and whispered in his ear, "Is the thorn stimulating?"

"..." Zhao Jun didn't speak but nodded.

Chen Ke reached out and rubbed Zhao Jun's disheveled hair a few times, and said loudly to him, "Catch me, or hold me!"

Zhao Jun nodded again, and hugged Chen Ke's waist without hesitation.The knuckles of the hug are slightly white.

They moved towards the finish line all the way, every step seemed to exhaust all their strength.

Zhao Jun glanced at the distance, suddenly a black shadow approached quickly, Chen Ke was still looking at the front, not daring to be distracted at all, suddenly felt that Zhao Jun's strength in holding him increased, and then he was slammed down on the bridge superior.

Just as Chen Ke was about to say something, he saw a huge branch flying over their heads.

Chen Ke's face was covered with snow, struggling to get up, and because he wanted to grab the rope, he could only turn his face to Zhao Jun, and motioned to him with the only eye that could still be seen, "wipe the snow off for me."

Zhao Jun let go of a hand holding Chen Ke, and raised his hand to gently brush the snow off his face.

The temperature of Zhao Jun's subordinates went from being cold to warm, slowly showing the face of his subordinate Chen Ke.

Chen Ke closed his eyes and couldn't see Zhao Jun's blushing face suddenly. When Zhao Jun told him to open his eyes, Zhao Jun had already completely buried himself in Chen Ke's clothes.

Chen Ke didn't care about him, but just struggled towards the destination not far away.

The author has something to say:

Today I thought of a sentence: The whole world exudes the sour smell of love, and I alone exude the fragrance of a single dog...

I suddenly felt that it actually made sense...

Then when I wrote the last point of this chapter today, I was full of these words...
