Your Majesty, come back

Chu Xiao felt that he was not a stingy person.

Especially for my brother, how many emperors can be as brave as him for thousands of years?He can ignore Chu Yue's numerous crimes. It can be said that he has forbearance and humility to the extreme. These days, Chu Yue is busy with the affairs of the national teacher coming to the court to sacrifice. Both Chu Xiao and Chu Yue were extremely busy with the sacrificial activities. In addition, Chu Xiao was busy with his soul, and he was unable to separate himself. Look a few times from a distance.

Chu Xiao was sitting on the dragon chair in a royal robe. While listening to the Minister of Rites's report on this year's imperial examination, he inadvertently rubbed the armrest under his palm with his slender five fingers. The top of the armrest of his dragon chair was shaped like a flying dragon. He lightly It was the part of the faucet that was stroked, and the cold and soft touch was like stroking the head of a young man.

Thinking of this, he involuntarily looked over the frothing Minister of Rites, and looked towards the front right of the other party. Chu Yue was standing there, the royal robe inlaid with dark gold threads wrapped in the young man's slender and straight body. On the body, the broad shoulders supported the luxurious fabric, and the palm-sized jade belt outlined Chu Yue's thin waistline.

What a pleasing, daydreaming scenery.

At this moment, Chu Xiao's mind suddenly became clear, and the myths that had troubled him before and kept him awake at night seemed to be at this moment, and the clouds and the moon suddenly appeared.

In the past few years, he sat in this position every day, and Chu Yue stood there every day, why did he never notice the other party? The strange thing about fate is that at this time, you will never know what will happen in the future. At some point in life, what will happen to me, what scenery will I see, and who will I fall in love with.

Instead of fearing the unknown future, it is better to cherish the present.

Even if the next moment is an eternal farewell, I still have to live frankly and straightly in the previous moment. I was so sad before, how could a man be so childish, and where did my former soldier's aura go?

Chu Xiao straightened his back, and involuntarily smiled at the young man. Unfortunately, according to the rules, Chu Yue had to look down at the ground and not look at the holy face, so he couldn't see the rare, gentle look on Chu Xiao's face at the moment.

Chu Xiao counted the days, and it would have been seven or eight days. Chu Yue didn't come here to spend the night. As usual, with Chu Yue's stubborn temperament, night visits to the bedroom could be done, but In the past seven or eight days, his brother seems to have changed. He is as stable as Mount Tai, abiding by the law. It is estimated that he is busy on the one hand, and on the other hand, he must be a young man who is caring. Seeing that he is depressed, he dare not disturb him.

If the mountain does not come, I will go to the mountain. The steps are given to each other.

So after retiring from the imperial court, Chu Xiao specially made up a reason to stay Chu Yue to come to the imperial garden to enjoy the spring scenery.The two walked one after the other in the imperial garden in bright spring. He was considerate of the young man's hard work for many days, and even dismissed all the attendants and maids. Yue is still well-behaved, those slender hands seem to have been chanted with a magic spell, so honest that it makes people laugh and cry.

Chu Xiao first walked into the small pavilion built by the lake. Wisteria flowers with vines and knots grew on the pavilion. The wisteria and the pavilion wood on the edge of the tree are lingering and connected, following the arc of the butterfly tile surface and the vertical ridge. From a distance, it looks like waves of purple waves, like a natural curtain, which half-encloses and half-encloses this air-permeable gazebo without enclosure. The two sit inside, as long as The movement is not big, and it is absolutely invisible from the outside.

Probably due to exhaustion, he felt that the young man lost a lot of weight, and his waist became thinner and taller, but his face was pale and he looked a little tired.Chu Xiao adhered to the principle that the enemy does not move and I do not move. He picked some irrelevant topics, and Chu Yue raised his spirit to answer them one by one. The young man is rich in knowledge. Even if he points to a flower, he can tell a few anecdotes and allusions Come.

Chu Xiao kept an eye out, when the young man was pouring tea for him, he touched the teacup with a step forward, his face was expressionless, but he secretly flicked his fingers, the hot water that was about to be poured into the teacup splashed onto Chu Xiao on your own fingers.

"Brother—"

Chu Xiao hissed heavily and frowned, but he didn't retract his red fingers.

Surprised, Chu Yue stood up in an instant, and the wooden stool fell to the ground with a hasty movement. He wiped Chu Xiao's fingers with a handkerchief, and his movements were gentle, but Chu Xiao found that the young man's wrist was vibrating non-stop.

"Chendi, let the imperial physician come over, the emperor bears with it, and my brother——"

Seeing such a panic-stricken younger brother, Chu Xiao immediately regretted his sudden whim. He just saw that Chu Yue was too law-abiding and worried about the fate of the two, so he came up with such a bad plan and resorted to some bitter tricks to get the young man to come over.

The mere boiling of hot water is nothing to him.

But seeing Chu Yue so anxious and heartbroken, he couldn't help but grow something sweet in his heart, like honey brewed in spring flowers, sweet on the tip of his tongue, making him feel comfortable and comfortable.

He blocked Chu Yue's move to announce the imperial physician, waved his hand, and said, "We haven't spoken together for a long time, so you have to find an old man to spoil the atmosphere?"

"It's not..."

"Ayue." Chu Xiao suddenly changed the name, which is what the two of them would use in private: "Do you blame me for neglecting you these days, so now you are angry with your third brother?"

Chu Yue was slightly taken aback, and the hand that lifted the stool got stuck, but soon he returned to normal, but the smile seemed to Chu Xiao reluctantly: "Why, it's not that I can't eat candy and want to eat sweets." You troublesome child, third brother thinks too much."

"Having a temper—it's actually not a bad thing." Chu Xiao said slowly, "Right."

Humans and beasts have something in common, just like the Minister of Rites would never behave in front of himself, and domesticated rabbits would never act like a baby in front of big-tailed wolves, everyone would only be in front of the familiar and loving existence. would make that gesture.

He didn't hate Chu Yue playing his temper in front of him, it was because he was only thinking about his own affairs during this time and ignored Chu Yue.

He couldn't believe that Chu Yue couldn't understand the words. Under the wisteria flowers, the young man could be forgiven for anything he did. He put down the teacup and smiled at the young man. , but the young man was not as happy as expected. Chu Yue looked at him deeply, as if he was suppressing uncontrollable emotions, with his palms resting on his lap, tightly picking at his clothes.

"Ayue, look at these vines, each one looks so ordinary and small, but together they can be so magnificent. I have always disliked flowers, not because they are weak, of course, part of the reason is that they are unbearable. But mostly, I don't like something so ephemeral."

"Sometimes I even feel strange, do they know that they can only bloom for one season and then wither and fall to the ground. Last time you sent the night epiphyllum to the bedroom, the time was even shorter, and it withered within two hours. I feel that they must know that they cannot survive for a long time, so they must be so gorgeous and live up to this life."

Since you are living brilliantly, why care about the short-term.

"This year, I'm thirty-five. I've been a soldier for half my life, and I'm old and sick."

He saw that the eyes of the young man were slowly turning red, but he didn't feel any sadness at all. He looked at the young man intently and continued.

"I own this country."

"There are countless hardworking people."

He paused, and finally said.

"I still have you, Chu Yue."

"..."

"So my life has been happy enough and fulfilled enough. I am grateful to God. Even if I die now, I will be satisfied and never hold any grudges. A Yue, do you understand what I mean?"

"I understand." Chu Yue said, "But I can't accept it."

Chu Xiao sneered: "You..."

"Third brother, what I hope is that you can live a long life. This is the reason for my consummation and leaving the soul. I will definitely find a way for you. Don't try to persuade me."

Chu Xiao sighed for a long time. With such a beautiful day, he said these words with confidence, but in the end the young man still didn't do anything. Chu Xiao looked at the opponent's hand strangely, but he was not injured, so why? So ignorant.

After all, the emperor needs face. He can't just open his mouth to question each other like ordinary people. The biggest hint he can make is that when he goes back to the palace to taste tea and read the memorial, he seems to ask unintentionally: "Yue Wang Is it because you are not feeling well recently? Your spirit is so sluggish, it's not like the usual you."

Chu Yue lowered his eyes, hiding the sadness in his eyes: "Recently, my brother...does not sleep very comfortably, and often has nightmares. Brother Lao is concerned."

The emperor said oh, and approved a few more scrolls. When he raised his hand to smear the ink, he said casually: "By the way, the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent some jars of incense the day before yesterday. It is said that they are from overseas, and they are the most suitable for sleeping. There just happens to be a pot in there, so you can stay here to sleep tonight, and ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs to get some for you another day, so as not to look haggard and let outsiders gossip.”

Look at what this said, the timing is just right, the steps are given, the face is also gained, and the young man's body is also taken care of. He is extremely thoughtful. As long as the young man thanked him, the two brothers could make the bed and talk at night.

Chu Yue knelt down and kowtowed to thank him, but what he said was: "Thank you, Brother Huang, for your kindness, but staying overnight in the palace violates the palace rules, I'm afraid...it's unreasonable."

The ink on the tip of the pen turned the entire memorial black because of the long pause. Chu Xiao was almost laughed out of anger. He dared to love his sincere confession in the afternoon. Don't want to play, is it unreasonable?

His grandma's Chu Yue, you bastard, even committed the crime of deceiving the emperor, and you did it 800 years ago!

It’s only now that he’s pretending to say that it’s unreasonable—and even saying that his wish is to let him live a long life, which is extremely ridiculous!

Chu Xiao threw the purple hair in his hand heavily on the ground, and Chu Yue still maintained the posture of kowtowing, with his back bent and his forehead on the ground, like a loyal minister who would do his best for him.

He hadn't lost such a big temper for a long time, he just wanted to keep Chu Yue Bingzhu to talk at night, but it turned out that his head was hot, and his heart was full of joy and poured into a basin of cold water. Is it unreasonable to say now?Then when he said that he was in love with himself, why didn't he think about these four words!

Chu Yue's back trembled, and he thanked him: "Your brother, please leave, brother, please take care of yourself."

Chu Xiao still couldn't hold back his anger, and said sharply: "If you don't want to stay, get out of here, get out of my sight!"
