you are my tomorrow

Chapter 29 When the flowers bloom, you can't see the leaves

After a day of marching, in the evening, Comet led the army into the mountain. It took another two days to walk along the mountain road before reaching Zhao Rongzhen's camp.

Because he had already left the city and entered the mountains, Comet could only follow the troops to camp in the mountains for the night. When it was getting dark, fires were lit in front of each camp. It was very heavy, and the weather was getting colder due to the coming of night. The personal guards set up a separate tent for Comet. Because they wanted to protect Comet, the guards could only let Comet live with him. Because of the current situation, Comet also There is no other choice.

Before going to bed, Comet rummaged through his luggage. There was a thick cloak in the bag. When Comet shook the cloak away, a small note fell out. Comet picked it up. On the note was the word loyalty——

Your Highness:

It will be cold in the mountains at night, so put on your cloak before going to sleep.

Loyalty

The corner of Comet's mouth is slightly raised, and loyalty and care are always reflected in this casual place.

Lying on a makeshift bed, the tired Comet still couldn't sleep, his mind was filled with the contents of Han Qing's note and Zhao Rongzhen's appearance, and he also imagined how he would be when he met Zhao Rongzhen again. He thought a lot in a mess, thinking Thinking about it, Comet also slowly fell asleep. He had a dream, dreaming that he in red clothes and Zhao Rongzhen in armor were lying hand in hand in a whole field of manjusawa flowers, and the sky was so blue that it seemed never to change. As if it would turn black, the two kept smiling and looking at each other, as if time had no end...

Comet wanted this dream to last forever, but the noisy sound outside the tent woke Comet up. Comet and the guards got up and went outside the tent.

Comet on the road kept thinking about that dream, but a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth...

On the afternoon of the second day after entering the mountain, the cloudy sky finally began to rain. It rained the most in the evening, and the mountain road became muddy, making it very difficult to walk. The wheels of the comet’s carriage were also stuck in the mud and could not move. , the guards and a few soldiers tried several times to push it out, but they failed in the end.

There is no way, Comet can only wear rain capes and continue on the road on horseback. At night, the rain is much lighter, but it is still falling. It is too dark to continue on the road. In order to ensure that every soldier can reach Zhao Rongzhen’s camp safely , Comet can only stop the troops and rest where they are, and try to prop up tents where they can be propped up, and everyone hides in tents as much as possible to avoid getting sick.

In this way, after a night, in the morning, the rain stopped and the air became fine, but the sky was still cloudy, as if it would rain again at any time. Comet ordered the troops to hurry as soon as possible when it was not raining. If it's raining, stop again.

Along the way, Comet prayed that there would be no more rain, and his prayer seemed to have worked. It wasn't until evening that the troops walked a little longer than planned before the rain started.

However, Comet started to feel a little unwell. He was drenched in some rain yesterday, and walked in a hurry today. He was sweating a little, and he didn’t have a good rest at night. Comet felt that his body had an abnormal fever, but he didn’t tell anyone. , I just hope that I can get to the camp soon, bring the recruits and provisions to Zhao Rongzhen, and give him the support he needs most.

Finally on the night of the third day, Comet came to Zhao Rongzhen’s camp with the recruits and provisions. On the mountain road, when approaching the camp, the guards finally found out that something was wrong with Comet, and insisted on sending Comet to a nearby town to see the doctor. Comet thought about it, Zhao Rongzhen should be short of supplies, and he didn’t want to use the medicine in the army, so he Let the guards accompany him to a town less than one mile away, let the army go to the barracks not far away, and let the captains of each team pass down the order before leaving. When they arrived in the barracks, Zhao Rongzhen asked who led the soldiers If it is who it is, don't tell it is yourself for the time being, because if Zhao Rongzhen doesn't see him, he may ask about his whereabouts, and he doesn't want Zhao Rongzhen to know about his illness in advance.

Therefore, when Zhao Rongzhen asked who was leading the soldiers, everyone kept silent.

When he arrived in the town, Comet only asked the doctor to grab a few medicines. In the middle of the night, it started to rain again. Comet didn't live in the town, so he arrived at the barracks non-stop in the middle of the night. Because of the continuous rain, Zhao Rongzhen and the enemy There was also a truce, and the two sides agreed to wait until the weather cleared five days later before fighting, so Zhao Rongzhen got a few days to plan carefully.

When Comet arrived, he didn't let the guards of the barracks disturb Zhao Rongzhen, but asked Zhao Rongzhen where the army tent was, and walked in with his tired body. At this time, Zhao Rongzhen and Zhang Wei were still awake and were making a new battle plan .

When the two looked at a man wearing a wet rain cape and a similarly wet cape standing at the door, they vigilantly held the sabers beside them.

"Who is it?" Zhao Rongzhen looked at the person at the door defensively and asked. The person hadn't spoken for a long time. When Zhang Wei stood up, holding his saber, and was about to get up to investigate, the person suddenly said nothing. Jian Jian fell straight to the ground, and the cape on his head fell off, allowing the two of them to clearly see the haggard face.

"Comet!" Zhao Rongzhen stood up in surprise, ignored the injury on his arm, and walked over to Comet with his eyes closed...

When Comet woke up, it was still dark outside. He was lying on the warm and comfortable bed. After thinking about it for a long time, he remembered that he had arrived at Zhao Rongzhen’s military camp. There was only one candle burning beside the bed, and he didn’t feel so uncomfortable anymore. , just felt thirsty, he tried to sit up, get out of bed to drink water, his right hand leaning outside seemed to be being pulled by someone, and when he moved, the hand that was holding him was also released. In the dark, the comet could only see There was a person lying on the side of the bed, and as I sat up, that person also woke up.

"... Comet, you finally woke up." You don't need to look at the face, just listen to the voice, Comet knows that there is no one else except Zhao Rongzhen, "What do you want? I will help you." Adapted to the darkness, with the help of a candle With the faint light, Comet can probably see the outline of Zhao Rongzhen's face, he has lost a lot of weight.

"...Water..." As soon as Comet spoke, his throat felt sore and hoarse. Zhao Rongzhen got up and went to a place with a candle. Comet heard the sound of water pouring out, and then the light returned to the bedside. Zhao Rongzhen carefully brought the water to the comet, fearing that the comet would not see him, he even held the candle to the side of the water cup, and bent down his waist. With the light of the candle, the comet finally saw Zhao Rongzhen's face clearly.

From Zhao Rongzhen's concerned gaze, Hui Xing knew that this person was still the Zhao Rongzhen who loved her, but that concern was covered with a layer of deep sadness.

The water temperature was just right, and after drinking the water, Comet handed the water glass to Zhao Rongzhen, "Is there any more?" Comet shook his head, turned and lay down again, his head became dazed again, Zhao Rongzhen put the water glass back on the table, He went back to the bed and put the candlestick back on the stool beside the bed, "Go to sleep, when I wake up tomorrow, I will send someone to the town to find a doctor."

In the darkness, that powerful hand held his own again, and Comet, who closed his eyes again, felt in a daze that he should reject the warmth from that hand, but when he fell asleep again, he didn't hide. open that hand...

When Comet woke up again, it was already daytime, and he was the only one living in the military tent. He looked around the military tent, which was only half the size of the bedroom. There was a small round table, each one a meter wide. The couch, two wooden benches, a small wardrobe, and the bed I sleep on are all the furnishings in this military tent, and there is still a faint smell of damp in the air.Comet curled his lips unconsciously. He grew up in the palace, and he had never seen such a simple "house".

But some kind of discomfort that arises in Comet's heart is only for a moment.

Yes, here, now is the place where Zhao Rongzhen "lives", and I don't know how long he will live here for the time being.

Comet got up, and he was already wearing dry clothes. Although it was his own clothes, it was still not red. When he came out of the palace, he didn't bring any red clothes.

I don't know if I haven't eaten or got out of bed for a few days, and the soles of my feet are a little soft, but the fever should have subsided, but my throat is still sore.

There was a kettle on the round table. Comet touched it and found that the kettle was warm. After drinking a glass of water, Comet walked out of the tent.

The camp is still stationed in the mountain depression, and the camp is a peaceful and leisurely scene. If it weren't for the wounded soldiers walking back and forth, no one would have thought that the front line not far away was fighting. He looked up at the sun looming in the cloud, it should be almost noon, and the cooking smoke drifted into the comet's nose, but he couldn't tell what kind of food was cooked in the big pot.

Comet grabbed a wounded soldier who passed by him, and asked him where Zhao Rongzhen and Zhang Wei had gone. The wounded soldier told him that Zhao Rongzhen said he was going to the town in the morning, but he didn't say what he was going to do. Zhang Wei was in the general's tent, and pointed to him. The largest tent in the middle of the camp.Comet walked to the general's tent with the curtain closed, and hesitated for a while whether to go in. Speaking of which, this was the first time that Comet faced Zhang Wei alone after the funeral of the Zhao couple.

Just when Comet was hesitating whether to go in, the curtain of the military tent was lifted by the people inside. Comet and Zhang Wei stood facing each other. Zhang Wei was a little surprised at first, then put on an indifferent expression, bowed his head, it was considered Say hello, "Your Highness is awake..."

Comet feels very strange to Zhang Wei like this. The Zhang Wei he knew before is a person who makes people feel warm even if he has no expression or speaks, but in those four words, there is a chill down the spine coldness.

"Ah..." Comet was momentarily at a loss for words, not knowing what to say.

"What's the matter, Your Highness?" The two stalemate at the door for a while, but Zhang Wei spoke first, looking at Comet with no emotion in his eyes, which made Comet avoid that gaze and lowered his head.

"...Rong Zhen...Where is General Zhao? I have a list of recruits and the quantity of food and grass that I need to check with him..."

"No need, my brother has already checked it himself. The list and checklist you brought with you were soaked by the rain, and my brother took a lot of effort to check it." Zhang Wei frowned impatiently, " If Your Highness has nothing else to do, please step aside, we have something to do when we go out." Only then did Comet notice that there were two other people following behind Zhang Wei, and after hearing Zhang Wei's words, Comet stepped aside reflexively in a panic After entering the door, Zhang Wei walked out with the two people behind him. The curtain of the military tent returned to its original position. Zhang Wei and the other two left first. Comet stood at the door of the military tent, not knowing whether to go in or not. leave.

If it was someone else, Comet might have felt disrespectful to him, but he was angry with Zhang Wei anyway, Zhang Wei was not the kind of person who made people angry, and more importantly, Comet felt ashamed of him.

Comet was still at a loss, Zhang Wei, who was six or seven steps away from him, stopped and looked back in the direction of Comet, "My brother went to the town to hire a doctor for you, and he will probably be back soon, if you wait for him, Just go in and wait." Comet looked gratefully in Zhang Wei's direction as if he had received an amnesty, but Zhang Wei turned his head first and continued to walk in the direction he was going.

Comet, who was still grateful just now, felt cold again, but he could only smile helplessly, shook his head, and then walked into the military tent.

After Comet walked into the military tent, Zhang Wei stopped again, looked back at the military tent, the front door was already empty, but he could never forget the night Comet came, when Zhao Rongzhen fainted at the door, anxious, loving and kind Concerned gaze.

After the funeral of his parents, Zhao Rongzhen had never entered the palace before, except for going to the palace once before leaving, and he never mentioned Comet again.Zhang Wei thought that after what happened to his parents, Zhao Rongzhen would gradually forget Comet and at least become ordinary friends, but from Zhao Rongzhen's eyes, Zhang Wei realized that Zhao Rongzhen had never forgotten Comet, and maybe he loved Comet even more than before. .

Don't say, don't see, doesn't mean don't want to.

This is the truth that Zhang Wei realized later.

Regarding the matter of his parents, Zhang Wei has resentment towards Comet, because if it wasn’t for him, the changes in his family would not have happened at all. The resentment also quietly, slowly deepened...

After Comet entered the general’s tent, he felt that there was another world inside. This military tent was larger than his own. I sketched and wrote some signs that the comet could not understand. Behind the desk was a couch similar to the one in my study room. A tiger skin was placed on both sides of the couch. There are floor-to-ceiling candlesticks of different heights. On both sides of the military tent, there are bookshelves and wardrobes full of books. The general's tent is also much cleaner than his own military tent, probably because of the books.

Comet walked over to the bookshelf. Most of the bookshelves were full of military books, and many of them showed traces of flipping through. Comet took one down and flipped through it. He couldn't help sighing silently in his heart. The piano score is better.

Just as Comet put the book back on the shelf, the curtain of the military tent was lifted. Comet turned back to look at the door reflexively. Zhao Rongzhen, Bao Qin and a stranger with a medicine box were standing at the door. Comet thought about it. It's a doctor.

"Comet..." Zhao Rongzhen was a little surprised to see Comet in the general's tent. He went to Comet's military tent first, but there was no one inside. When he came out, he happened to see Zhang Wei. Zhang Wei said that Comet was in the general's tent. find.

"I'm back." Comet left the bookshelf, and came to the side of the couch with Zhao Rongzhen and Langzhong. Comet and Langzhong sat opposite each other. Zhao Rongzhen and Bao Qin stood beside him. Langzhong gave Comet his pulse. During this time, Comet looked up and saw Zhao Rongzhen's upper right arm. Gauze was wrapped almost from the shoulders to the joints of the arms. Judging from the degree of newness, it should be newly wrapped. Comet looked at Zhao Rongzhen's eyes in surprise. Zhao Rongzhen kept looking at Comet, and then shook his head with a smile.

"Young master is fine. It's just the fever caused by catching a cold. Now that the fever has receded, I can just prescribe a few more medicines for you." The doctor's words drew Comet's attention back.

"Is it all right after eating?" Zhao Rongzhen lowered his head and asked.

"Well, it's fine after eating, general, don't worry." The doctor took out a note pen from the medicine box, wrote down a prescription, and handed it to Zhao Rongzhen. Zhao Rongzhen looked at it, and then handed it to Baoqin.

"Follow the doctor to the military doctor's place, and show the prescription to the military doctor for another look. If there is no problem, go grab the medicine, and check if lunch is ready by the way."

"Yes." Baoqin took the prescription and led the doctor out of the military tent.

Zhao Rongzhen sat opposite Comet, Comet's eyes returned to Zhao Rongzhen's arm, Zhao Rongzhen touched it unnaturally, "It's okay, the wound has begun to heal." Even so, Comet still looked at Zhao Rongzhen worriedly, Zhao Rongzhen The expression on his face also became serious, "...Why don't you wear red clothes anymore? I don't see any of the clothes you brought..."

Comet withdrew his gaze, and smiled bitterly, "After what happened to Mrs. Zhao and his wife, how can I have the nerve to wear it again..." Comet's hoarse voice was full of loneliness and helplessness, and it also aroused Zhao Rongzhen's innocence. Healed the scars, "When I get better, I will go back. I promise Brother Huang and Zhongyi will go back."

Comet's words made Zhao Rongzhen feel even more depressed. He thought that Comet came to him this time.

After the funeral, there was not a day when Zhao Rongzhen didn’t miss Comet, but he blamed himself because of his parents’ affairs. He knew that the future with Comet might only stay in the two months he was in the palace, but his thoughts were infinite. , He put away the kit from Comet, and put it in his arms every day, and did not hang it on his waist anymore. It was an apology to his parents, and he was also afraid that Zhang Wei would be unhappy if he saw it.

Although he went home, Zhao Rongzhen knew that Zhang Wei would have resentment towards him and Comet for the departure of his parents, but Zhang Wei never complained about himself, nor did he say anything bad about Comet. It was Zhang Wei's slightly hostile gaze towards the comet.

"... When you go back, greet the emperor for me, and thank him for his rescue and food." Zhao Rongzhen can only say this, he has no right to keep Comet, and he doesn't want Comet to be embarrassed.

Originally, Zhao Rongzhen wanted to shake Comet's hand on the table, but in the process of lifting it, Zhao Rongzhen finally put down his hand.

"You should pay more attention to your arms, don't get infected, and eat well, sleep well, and those who need physical strength in war, pay more attention to safety..." Comet tried to use a tone that was neither salty nor weak, so he didn't want to come I'll talk about it when I leave, I'm afraid I won't want to leave after I finish speaking.

In the next five days, Comet took the medicine prescribed by the doctor on time, and on the fifth day, his illness was almost healed, and his body regained some strength. , so Zhao Rongzhen didn't let Comet out of the barracks, but for the agreed future battle, Zhao Rongzhen, Zhang Wei and the leaders of several teams were discussing tactics intensively every day, and they didn't have time until night.

Comet stays in his military tent almost every day except for meals, and during the day, he can only see Zhao Rongzhen when he is eating.Zhao Rongzhen will try his best to finish the work during the day. After dinner, Zhao Rongzhen will go to Comet, because Comet said that when he is there, he will help Zhao Rongzhen change his dressing. As Zhao Rongzhen said, the wound has begun to heal, but it seems If the nearly one-foot knife wound grows well, it will definitely leave a deep scar, which will never be healed.Therefore, every time the dressing is changed, Comet will sigh silently in his heart.

"Who did this?" Comet asked distressedly after seeing the shocking wound when he changed the dressing for the first time.

"The enemy's general is called 'Chen Yuan'." Zhao Rongzhen will never forget Chen Yuan's face, even though he only had close contact with Chen Yuan once, no matter whether it is Zhao Rongzhen, no one will believe that the one who has A person with a pretty face can be so vicious,

There is still a cold look in the eyes that makes people shudder, and there is an unavoidable despair, as if the most cherished thing has been lost.

Thinking of Chen Yuan's gaze, Zhao Rongzhen couldn't help being immersed in the scene of the confrontation. Comet's hand waved in front of Zhao Rongzhen's straight gaze, which brought back Zhao Rongzhen's attention, "I'm sorry..." Zhao Rongzhen looked at it apologetically. Looking at the comet, "Is it okay to sleep alone at night?"

In fact, it was Zhao Rong who really wanted to stay. He knew that the days to be so close to the comet might be only a few days.

Comet froze for a moment, but understood the meaning behind Zhao Rongzhen.

"...It's okay, it's fine." Although Comet wanted to keep Zhao Rongzhen, he knew that he couldn't.

If Zhao Rongzhen stayed, the chances of staying in this barracks would be great.

Comet didn't want to give himself such a chance.

The two looked at each other and smiled, pitifully.

Zhao Rongzhen smiled with a bit of embarrassment.

In fact, there is a voice in my heart that has been shouting "Comet, stay here." But I can only shout in my heart and dare not say it.

After changing the medicine, the two talked about some irrelevant topics, Zhao Rongzhen was about to leave, when he walked to the door, he stopped and looked back at Comet sitting on the couch, "... I really don't need you Do you want to stay?"

"...No, let's go."

Zhao Rongzhen could only nod his head, turned around and walked out of Comet's military tent.

The moment the curtain fell, Comet's eyes, which had been pretending to be calm just now, also fell.

In the next few days, after Zhao Rongzhen came to change his medicine at night, he would not ask the question of whether he should stay. He already knew Comet's answer.

But the voice that left behind the comet filled Zhao Rongzhen's heart, as if it could overflow at any time...

Fifth day, evening.

Zhao Rongzhen still went to Comet’s military tent to change his medicine. In fact, he hesitated for a day whether to go, because Comet was leaving the barracks early the next morning. I couldn't help but say it, but thinking that there might be fewer opportunities to come into contact with comets in the future, Zhao Rongzhen went anyway.

After changing the medicine, Comet finally tied the gauze, then looked at Zhao Rongzhen and smiled faintly.

"This scar must have fallen off. When you go to the battlefield in the future, you have to be careful and try not to get hurt, okay?" Comet couldn't help telling him again, and Zhao Rongzhen nodded.

For a moment, the two were relatively silent.

"When will we leave tomorrow?" After a moment of silence, it was Zhao Rongzhen who spoke first.

"Morning."

"Aren't you going to stay for a few more days?"

"...No, aren't you guys going to fight again in a few days? Don't be distracted." Comet was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he would be really reluctant to leave. These days, he really thought about it and didn't care about anything. He wanted to stay in the barracks, but this idea was slowly dispelled by Comet.

"Hmm...then I'll see you off...?" Zhao Rongzhen raised his eyes and looked at Comet beggingly, but in the end, he only saw Comet shaking his head.

"There are personal guards, are you afraid of being unsafe?"

The two fell silent again.

"...Then I'm leaving, you go to bed early, you have to get up early tomorrow." Zhao Rongzhen got up, and Comet sent him to the door.

Zhao Rongzhen stopped at the door, took a deep breath, then turned around, slightly lowered his head and looked at Comet tenderly, that was Comet's most familiar and longing gaze.

"...Can I hug you again? In the future... maybe I won't have a chance."

For a moment, Zhao Rongzhen's deep and gentle voice Comet's thoughts became confused, he didn't know whether to accept or reject.

should be rejected.

But Zhao Rongzhen took Comet's silence as approval, so before Comet could express his opinion, Zhao Rongzhen hugged Comet in his arms. This person was much thinner than the last time he hugged him in the palace, which made Zhao Rongzhen feel even more distressed holding the person in his arms.

Comet didn't react for a while, so he could only let Zhao Rongzhen hold him, feeling the familiar warmth from Zhao Rongzhen's left chest. In the future, he might not be able to feel it anymore, and he could still feel Zhao Rongzhen's warm breath just in front of him. In my ears, it seemed to be crying, and it seemed to be longing for myself, and tears slipped down the corners of Comet's eyes involuntarily.

"... Comet, stay here... we will forever..." Zhao Rongzhen's slightly hoarse voice sounded in his ears, and Comet felt more and more that his heart was about to explode.

Comet has a steelyard in his heart, Zhao Rongzhen on one side, and the palace on the other. The steelyard was sinking towards the "palace" and slowly returned to a balanced position, falling more and more in the direction of Zhao Rongzhen.

"No...we can't..." Comet refused with a thick nasal voice, "We are wrong..."

"Stay here... Please... I miss you... I miss you every day... I'm going crazy..." Zhao Rongzhen knew that if he and Comet go on forever, the departure of his parents will be something they can never redeem Zhang Wei may also leave himself because of this.

Zhao Rongzhen knows everything.

However, he didn't want to think about anything at this moment, even if he would fall into hell with the comet, at this moment, he only wanted this person who was crying and trembling in his arms.

Comet wanted to break free from Zhao Rongzhen's arms, but Zhao Rongzhen hugged himself more and more desperately. After a while, Comet had no more strength to struggle anymore. He also felt warm liquid on his left hand, and Comet bowed his head. Looking at it, the wound on Zhao Rongzhen's right arm was open again, and red liquid was coming out of the gauze.

"...your wound..." Comet felt that he was going to be out of breath, but Zhao Rongzhen didn't seem to let go.

"Don't worry about it... I just want you to stay..."

Zhao Rongzhen begged like a weight, the steelyard in Comet’s heart was completely pressed to Zhao Rongzhen’s side by that weight, the hands that had been hanging down just now slowly climbed onto Zhao Rongzhen’s back, Zhao Rongzhen seemed to feel Comet’s response, and then slowly Slowly reduced his own strength, and when he was sure that Comet would not let go of him, he lifted his face buried on Comet's shoulders, and the two looked at each other with tears in their eyes, "If we go on like this, it will be true. There is no way out..."

"I never thought of going back..."

"Lord Zhao and Madam are gone, and Zhang Wei may leave you too...we..." Before Comet finished speaking, Zhao Rongzhen sealed his lips. Zhao Rongzhen kissed fiercely and crazily, from Comet's mouth Plundering the little air that was left because of crying, if he wanted to live, he could only respond to Zhao Rongzhen in the same way. Huixing unknowingly grabbed Zhao Rongzhen's collar with his hand until there was no gap between this person and himself. ...

We are the fate that can never be shaken off by each other.

Our love is our original sin.

We are doomed to betray everyone around us, to fulfill the eternity and the boundless sea and sky that belong to us, brother Huang and Mr. Meng...

A long-lost sexual intercourse made the two of them feel as if the earth that had been parched for a long time was finally nourished by a heavy rain.

The two kissed each other, comforted, bit, and released, as if after tonight, tomorrow would be the end, whenever Comet thought he was exhausted to the extreme and could no longer continue, but as long as Zhao Rongzhen brought the fire When his fingers touch his skin, Comet will unconditionally get excited again.

Tonight, the two of them seem to love each other not enough. They are like catalysts for each other. The more they want to calm down, the more they can't help but want to hug each other, or be hugged by each other...
