Song Emperor Jiangshan

Cold sweat dripped down Xiao Shan's back, and he hurriedly said, "My name is Yu Yunwen, from Longzhou."

Zhao Yuan glanced at Xiao Shan suspiciously, Xiao Shan's expression was very subtle, and there was a hint of weirdness in the subtlety.

Zhao Yuan didn't pay much attention to Xiao Shan, but said to Yu Yunwen: "Your surname is Yu, and you are from Longzhou. Who is Dr. Taichang Yu Qi?"

Yu Yunwen: "It's my father. Does this official know my father?"

Zhao Yuan smiled slightly, and said: "Yes, I know. I heard that his son recited the "Nine Classics" at the age of six and was able to write at the age of seven. Is it you? Is your father in good health?"

Yu Yunwen hurriedly said: "I don't dare to do it, it's just a mere thing. My father is in good health as usual, but my mother passed away, and I feel a little unhappy. I didn't expect to meet my father's old friend here. It's really a blessing."

Zhao Yuan humbled himself, did not say who he was, and Yu Yunwen didn't ask, after the two praised each other, Zhao Yuan asked why Yu Yunwen was here, Yu Yunwen glanced at Xiao Shan, and was quite aggrieved. Zhao Yuan said: "Young Master Zhao doesn't know something. This General Xiao seems to be very prejudiced against this subordinate. After interrogating for a long time, he didn't give him any food or drink a sip of water. Now I'm hungry and thirsty, please give me a cornbread to fill my stomach. Fill your hunger. It’s hard to tell what’s going on during this period, and then talk slowly when you’re full, and you’ll be sure to answer your questions.”

Zhao Yuan laughed, and Yu Yunwen also laughed and said, "I'm afraid that the words will not be speculative later, and General Xiao will become mean, and Yu will starve for a few more days, and then he will not be able to walk!"

Zhao Yuan patted Yu Yunwen's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I'm here, I won't be hungry for you!" Then, he asked Xiao Shan to prepare a banquet for Yu Yunwen.

Xiao Shan was unwilling. He saw that Yu Yunwen kept looking at Zhao Yuan with winking eyes, although he was speaking calmly. He felt very unhappy, but since Zhao Yuan had already spoken, he could only obey the order.

Xuanzhou City was occupied by Wang Bupo for more than half a year, and it was newly broken. There was nothing good, but hastily prepared some dry biscuits, bacon, etc., and found two jars of bad wine. The banquet was held in the government office of Xuanzhou , called Zhou Hong and Jin Sheng to come together.

When I went to Xiaoshan to find Zhao Yuan and Yu Yunwen again, I found that the two had already had a good conversation, and they were still talking about some old things in the capital.

Zhou Hong and Jin Sheng didn't know who Yu Yunwen was, Zhao Yuan recommended him immediately, and didn't say anything about him being Wang Bupo's military advisor, but only introduced his family history, and said that he was imprisoned here by Wang Bupo.

Zhou Hong and Jin Sheng were very polite when they heard that Yu Yunwen was from a family of officials. Yu Yunwen's father was Dr. Taichang. No matter his background or future prospects, low-level military generals like Zhou Hong and Jin Sheng could not be compared.

Xiao Shan didn't talk to them, but just drank alone.

When the wine was half drunk, Yu Yunwen suddenly toasted to Xiao Shan, saying: "Now that Yu is a prisoner, I don't know what General Xiao is going to do with it? Is he going to assassinate and serve as a soldier?"

When Zhou Hong and Jin Sheng heard about it, they were both taken aback. Before Xiao Shan could reply, they hurriedly said, "How dare you let Dr. Taichang's son be assassinated and sent to the army? Of course, I will escort you back home. It was because of my incompetence that I let you go deep into the army." Trapped in the thief's den, please don't mind, my lord."

Yu Yunwen ignored Zhou Hong and Jin Sheng, but just looked at Xiao Shan, waiting for Xiao Shan to express his opinion.

Xiao Shan said: "A certain class of reckless Xiao, dare not make decisions without authorization, let alone eat the wine toasted by the young master."

Yu Yunwen looked a little embarrassed, but then smiled, and said: "If you really want to serve in the army, Yu hopes to be included in General Xiao's subordinates. General Xiao has done a great job in breaking the thief this time. Even if he is a prisoner, he will not be assigned to the army." elsewhere."

Xiao Shan looked towards Yu Yunwen, a sly light flashed in Yu Yunwen's eyes.

Xiao Shan hesitated, but did not answer.He did not know that Yu Yunwen's father was an official in the court before, but now that he knew that Yu Yunwen had such a backing, he would definitely not be assassinated and exiled into the army.

Whether you keep him or not, he will not be in any danger.

It's just what the other party means now?Are you reminding yourself of the topic that the two of you talked about when you were alone just now, keeping these captives by yourself and expanding your strength won't arouse Qin Hui's idea?

Xiao Shan looked at Zhao Yuan, wanting to ask for Zhao Yuan's opinion.

Zhao Yuan just looked at Xiao Shan with a smile and didn't speak.Xiao Shan thought for a while and said, "How dare you embarrass Young Master Yu? Naturally, he sent someone to escort Young Master home."

When Yu Yunwen got such an answer, he showed a rather disappointed expression, but he didn't say anything, he just said: "Thank you General Xiao for your rescue, this glass of wine is to thank the general for saving his life."

Xiao Shan couldn't deny him any more face, so he took it and drank it down.

After Yu Yunwen sat down and talked to Zhao Yuan again, Xiao Shan felt even more displeased. He felt that he had won Zhao Yuan's favor so quickly with his face, and he didn't know if he really had the ability.

Seeing that the atmosphere became more subtle, Zhou Hongjinsheng hurriedly smoothed things over and poured Xiao Shan vigorously, hoping to make him drunk and talk less.

Xiao Shan refused at first, saying that the city was set at the beginning, so it was not good to drink too much, and he had to stay awake, but after being forced to drink two cups by Zhou Hong and Jin Sheng, he saw that Yu Yunwen seemed to be whispering something to Zhao Yuan, Zhao Yuan nodded, feeling in his heart He became even more unhappy, the wine dried up on his lips, and after drinking dozens of glasses of bad wine, he just wanted to vomit, so he stood up immediately and walked outside.

Both Zhou Hong and Jin Sheng looked at each other, and said: "Brother Xiao, why did he look unhappy after winning the battle today? Is it enough after only drinking a few cups?" Then he laughed and said: "I must have gone out to find a girl! What's wrong with us big bastards?"

Zhao Yuan also felt that Xiao Shan was too abnormal when he faced Yu Yunwen today. None of the people present here wanted to drink bad wine, but it was just for a taste, but Xiao Shan actually drank a lot, and now he left halfway , I don't know what to do.

Seeing this, Yu Yunwen said, "You two generals, it's getting late, and Yu is very grateful for the hospitality. I'm afraid there are still many things to deal with in the city, so don't be greedy and miss the important thing."

Zhou Hong and Jin Sheng nodded again and again. They were greedy and made mistakes before, and now they absolutely don't want to make any troubles after they have already won. Besides, the wine in the city is not good to drink, so there is nothing to be greedy about. Farewell, go to rest by yourself.

Yu Yunwen was also given an apartment, and Zhao Yuan saw that Xiao Shan hadn't returned after going out for a long time, so he went to look for it by himself.

He walked out of the mansion, and after a little questioning, he heard that Xiao Shan was near the east gate of the city, and the autumn night was quite cool, so he took a cloak and walked towards the east gate.

Before Zhao Yuan reached the gate of the city, he saw Xiao Shan leaning against a tree, bent over and vomiting, the smell was pungent.

Zhao Yuan hurried over, supported the shaking Xiao Shan, and said in a reproachful tone, "Why do you drink so much?"

Xiao Shan didn't answer, he vomited again, Zhao Yuan hurriedly took out clear water to rinse his mouth, and waited until Xiao Shan finished vomiting, then supported him to rest against a low wall.

Xiao Shan didn't speak, and Zhao Yuan didn't have anything to say, they sat quietly in the corner to blow the air.

The soldiers in the city patrolled back and forth, and there were footsteps coming from time to time, and the leaves rustled with the autumn wind.Zhao Yuan waited for a while, then said: "It's getting late, I'll help you go back to bed!"

Xiao Shan didn't say a word, let Zhao Yuan support him, and walked towards the residence arranged for him in the government office by the city manager.He was very clear in his heart, and he could walk steadily, but he felt that being supported by Zhao Yuan now felt good, so he didn't refuse.

Along the way, all the soldiers he met greeted Xiao Shan one after another, Xiao Shan ignored them until he entered the government office, and some soldiers wanted to come to help, but he waved them away.

Zhao Yuan helped Xiao Shan to the side of the bed, and then said: "As a general, you should get drunk during the march, you really shouldn't!"

Xiao Shan said: "I'm not drunk, I'm very sober! It's just that the wine was too bad, so I couldn't help but vomit."

Zhao Yuan lit up the lamps in the room, the state mansion was occupied by Wang Bupo for a long time, there was no candle, only an oil lamp was found.

Xiao Shan leaned against the head of the bed, watching the lights come on little by little, reflecting Zhao Yuan's side face very clearly, the fluff on it can be seen, a thin layer, with a halo, very blurred.

While shaving the lamp, Zhao Yuan said, "You seem to have prejudice against Yu Yunwen, why?"

Xiao Shan shook his head: "No prejudice! It's just that I can't figure out why he wants to be a demon!"

Zhao Yuan laughed and said, "He said he had no prejudices, so he was forced to do so. I saw that his body was covered with bruises, all of which were fresh, and he was whipped by Wang Bupo. I have also talked to him, and there is nothing wrong with him."

Xiao Shan said: "I think he is dishonest!"

Zhao Yuan was helpless, walked over to Xiao Shan's side, and said softly: "I know you have suffered a lot from him, and you are not angry. But he has fame and wisdom, and he will definitely accomplish a lot in the future. Don't be too Be stingy, such a person should get along well."

Xiao Shan felt uncomfortable, and said: "What about you? What do you think of this person?" In fact, you don't need to ask Xiao Shan to understand that Zhao Yuan must appreciate him very much, otherwise he would not worship him in the future.

Zhao Yuan thought for a while and said: "He is very smart and can judge the situation, and I have talked with him before, he also has a good understanding of the situation in the court, and he can still embarrass the situation during the period when he is Wang Bupo's military adviser. Seeing you, it can be seen that he also has research on military affairs. It is very rare for a scholar like him who can understand soldiers. He is a rare talent. If he can serve the court, he will definitely accomplish a lot."

Xiao Shan sighed lightly, what Zhao Yuan said was basically correct, he would be able to cross the river alone in the future, and quickly gather an army to fight against the Jin people by himself, of course he is an extraordinary talent.

Zhao Yuan looked at Xiao Shan strangely: "Why don't you like him?"

Xiao Shan searched his brains, and finally came up with his own reason, saying: "I don't like his appearance! An old man who looks like a woman must be in love with the Huzhu."

The last sentence was purely slanderous, but Xiao Shan felt much happier after saying it.

Zhao Yuan burst out laughing: "It's very wrong to judge a person by his appearance. Whether he looks good or not is none of your business? Besides, fortune tellers say that men and women are destined to be rich and powerful. I think he looks pretty good." .”

Xiao Shan thought about it carefully, and felt that he was making trouble for no reason, but if he didn't like it, he didn't like it, so what reason was there?He said: "Anyway, I don't want him, I don't like him!"

Zhao Yuan was speechless, and said with a smile: "Then I don't know what kind of appearance General Xiao likes, who is more pleasing to the eye?"

Xiao Shan looked at Zhao Yuan without saying a word, he went through all the people he knew in his mind, and found that the one he liked the most was Zhao Yuan, who was handsome and gentle, restrained and steady, especially his eyes, which made people feel ashamed just by looking at them. People have a sense of trust, unlike Yu Yunwen's, who just look at them and want to commit crimes.

Realizing this moment, he shook his head suddenly, feeling that he seemed a little abnormal, but he couldn't tell exactly what was abnormal.

Seeing Xiao Shan staring at him without turning for a moment, Zhao Yuan felt a little confused, and suddenly thought of the situation of the two of them sleeping together that day.What happened at that time, although they never said it clearly, they all knew it well.

After a while, Xiao Shan said in a low voice: "Yuan Yuan..."

Zhao Yuan was shocked, and looked at Xiao Shan. Since the other party knew his identity, he never called him by his name again.

Xiao Shan stretched out his hand slowly, and held Zhao Yuan's hand. He wanted to say that I like you, but when he said the words, he was flirting. After all, he couldn't say it, but just held it.

Zhao Yuan's palms had a thin layer of calluses, and they were trembling slightly at the moment, his slender fingers looked very beautiful under the oil lamp.

Zhao Yuan did not withdraw his hand, but said: "You drink too much, go to bed early!"

Xiao Shan felt as if something was about to break out of his heart, but he didn't know what it was, he just insisted: "I didn't drink too much, I'm very sober."

Zhao Yuan looked at Xiao Shan worriedly, stretched out his other hand to touch Xiao Shan's forehead, and said, "You are so hot, are you sick?"

Xiao Shan shook his head, held Zhao Yuan's other hand, and slowly separated his fingers, intersecting them.

At this moment, Zhao Yuan seemed to understand something in his heart, and his breathing became scattered.Xiao Shan saw that Zhao Yuan's chest rose and fell slightly, and his face seemed to be gradually turning red, but there was no sign of anger.

Xiao Shan said: "I'm going back to Zhenjiang tomorrow, where are you going?"

Zhao Yuan looked at Xiao Shan with some puzzlement, Xiao Shan said: "I remember you once said that you want to see my residence, if you have nothing else to do, go and stay with me for a while."

Zhao Yuan didn't speak, Xiao Shan found his heart was beating violently, he inexplicably wanted to get closer, all he could think of so far was to invite Zhao Yuan to go with him.

Zhao Yuan didn't look at Xiao Shan, but just looked at the flames of the oil lamp in the room with a little absentmindedness, the flames kept beating, making everything appear indistinct.

Zhao Yuan said with some embarrassment: "You...are you..."

Xiao Shan was puzzled: "Is it something?" Zhao Yuan didn't know what to say, if he said something wrong, it would be a fatal blow to the relationship between the two.

Zhao Yuan thought for a while, and said, "You...why do you want to invite me to your place?"

Xiao Shan tried his best to think of a reason, but after thinking for a long time he didn't know, so he replied: "There is no reason, didn't you say you wanted to go and have a look?"

Zhao Yuan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and after a while, he suddenly asked: "Amao, you are not too young, why haven't you married yet?"

An inexplicable irritability surged up in Xiao Shan's heart. He didn't understand why Zhao Yuan suddenly asked these irrelevant questions, so he said, "There is no reason. Didn't I say before that you won't marry before the age of 30?"

Zhao Yuan nodded, then turned his head suddenly, stared into Xiao Shan's eyes, and asked, "You...you like women, right?"
