Ballad of Tianmen

Thinking about something in his heart, Chu Feihuan walked extremely slowly.When she returned to Nuanfeng Pavilion, Yin Wuxin was nowhere to be seen.Frowning, he called out the person to ask, and said that Chi Mu had brought him out of the mansion.

Chi Mu and Feng Jing have basically been to this shop on Yujie Street in Pucheng, she is more familiar with it than Yin Wuwu.Not to mention those restaurants.The snow has stopped and the weather is fine. In the market place, green cloth umbrellas are piled up on the street and bed benches are piled up. Roasted chicken, boiled duck, sheep's feet, lamb's head, and crispy tendons are all kinds of delicacies.Those women, with blue and white cloth towels around their waists and buns in buns, exchange soup and wine for drinkers.There are also some younger sons, who wear white cotton shirts and blue and white handkerchiefs, and sell spicy vegetables in white porcelain jars.

"Chi Mu." Being squeezed in the crowd, Yin Wuyi's legs and feet are somewhat inconvenient, but Chi Mu walked in front of several vendors, leaving her alone in the middle of the street.It was really helpless, so I had no choice but to shout, and called the excited Chi Mu back, "You have been here many times, why are you still so keen on these snacks?"

"The pig and mutton purse at Uncle's house, roasted dried meat, and fresh bream on jade plate are all extremely delicious. Maybe you haven't tried it. I don't know. The streets and alleys of Xianjing are not as lively as this Pucheng, and the people are fixed in a narrow A place that makes people lose their appetite after looking at it, how can it be like here.”

"You can say it's delicious, why don't you come back later?" Gently twisting Chi Mu's ear, Yin Wuyi said with a smile.

"Hey, you are in the princess's mansion where you eat delicacies from mountains and seas, how can you look down on these little things."

"Come on, it's just that you enjoy yourself, and you have left me behind." Shaking his head and pretending to sigh.

"Then I'm going to buy it now?"

"No need, but don't forget that we came out on business, and we have to return to the princess mansion before sunset." When I came out, I didn't tell Chu Feihuan face to face. I don't know if she will notice, but I don't care if I think about it. These.Yin Wuyi was still a little joking just now, but now that he thought of these things, his mood suddenly dropped a little.

"This is really Xie Tianqing. He only said one location and then disappeared again. He didn't care about our situation at all. I don't know how to deal with the third princess when I see you later. She will definitely break the casserole and ask about your things. In the end, do you want to pretend that you don't remember anything?" As soon as this was mentioned, Chi Mu's chatterbox opened again.

"I have my own plan." Yin Wuwu blocked Chi Mu with just one sentence.

It was in a restaurant called Fenglelou, which looked much more deserted than Dongshenglou, the people coming and going were sparse, and even their steps were in a hurry, without any sense of leisurely complacency.Its location is not in the busiest area of ​​Pucheng, but the layout inside is extremely luxurious.This Fengle building is three stories high, with five pavilions facing each other, flying bridge railings, light and dark interlinked, bead curtains embroidered on the forehead, and shining lights and candles.No matter who is in the hotel, as long as two people sit facing each other to drink, they also need to use a set of injection bowls, two sets of plate cups, five fruit and vegetable dishes each, and three or five water vegetable bowls, costing nearly a hundred taels of silver.

"You really know how to choose a place." Chi Mu clicked his tongue, and helped Yin Wuyi carefully go up to the small pavilion on the second floor of the restaurant. "It's really amazing that such a quiet place can be maintained."

"Don't underestimate this restaurant, can you hear the voices inside?" Yin Wuyi said with a smile, "There must be a lot of people in the small courtyard leading to the back of this building. Those noisy and chaotic voices should be a On the stage, someone is singing. This Pucheng is full of prosperity, so don't just look at it from the outside."

"Squeak—" With a sound, Yin Wuyi and the two of them stopped talking, and they were attracted by the sound of opening the door ahead.A servant came out from inside and made a gesture of invitation to Yin Wuyi and the others.

"It's right here." Chi Mu said.

A gust of wind passed through the corridor, blowing the long hair draped over his shoulders.

Yin Wuxin paused at the door for a while, and then entered the room with Chi Mu.The mountain and water screens cover the barriers, only projecting a black shadow sitting and drinking.Inside the incense burner, the smoke curled up, and the fragrance, which was neither deep nor shallow, lingered in the room.Yin Wuxin didn't move forward anymore, but the person inside stood up, bypassed the screen, and appeared in her line of sight.

Fu Heng's eyebrows were soft, and the corners of his lips were slightly raised, mixed with a faint smile.

"Senior Sister." Yin Wuwu called out in a low voice.

"Your legs are healed?" Fu Heng's eyes were a little surprised and delighted, it didn't look like a fake.She took a step forward and grabbed Yin Wuwu's hand, but she broke away immediately.There were a few wounds in her eyes, and a layer of melancholy covered her face, she looked at Yin Yiyi and asked softly, "Junior Sister, are you still blaming me? I didn't protect you well in the Qin Palace, did you?" My fault, but then I also..."

"Senior sister, I don't care about these things for a long time." Yin Wuyi said lightly.

"Then why did you go back to Tianmen Mountain in the first place? Even if you went back, it would be good to live there, after all, it is a familiar environment, but why did you come to Pucheng and make friends with Chu Feihuan? You know that Qin Guohe and I Chu State is a deadly enemy, even if there is such a covenant, it will be torn up sooner or later, the world cannot tolerate two masters." Fu Heng's eyes were a little anxious, and there was a little bit of panic, as if trying to hide something, she He continued, "That person Chu Feihuan is difficult to deal with, Junior Sister, you must not have any contact with her again. Back then, it was the heir of Chu who killed the former prince, and their Chu family and your Yin family were enemies. Chu people!"

"But Senior Sister, aren't you also the traitors of the Qin Kingdom? Didn't you also used to be the officials of my Yin Dynasty, who committed rebellion and rebellion? Could it be possible that you will return the throne to my Yin Dynasty when you rule the world?" Yin Wuxin smiled. , his eyes were as sharp as a sword, "Senior Sister, you came to Pucheng at the risk of traveling thousands of miles just to tell me these things?"

"I..." Fu Heng was at a loss for words for a moment, and stared blankly at Yin Wuwu for a moment. He raised his hand to pat her on the shoulder, but finally, under her cold gaze, he had to put it down again.Heartache and remorse welled up, Fu Heng tugged at his sleeves, and asked, "Yes, I'm talking about this, I want to take you back. Then junior sister, can you tell me why you came to Pucheng? You and Chu Feihuan It doesn't matter at all, why do you stay by her side, I am your senior sister, the person you should be close to." The tone of the last sentence gradually increased, and I don't know whether it is to convince myself or others.

"Senior Sister, is it me that you want to get close to, or the power behind me that is about to move the survivors of the previous dynasty who want to restore the country? If it is for them, I can tell you that the blood-stained canyon under Tianmen Mountain, all Betrayers, all the dissidents were buried in the loess. The rest are only those who follow me, and their will is not to restore the country. Sister, do you think you can easily provoke their minds again?" Yin Wuxin said The smile was a bit cruel, and those dusty past events flooded into my mind.The long sword dripping with blood, the unwilling roar, and the terrible remains of severed limbs. "The ones who came out of your Qin palace are indeed powerful. Those people back then were almost killed by them. Chu Feihuan, senior sister, you think I was almost insulted by the king of Qin in the Qin palace, and you never protected me. , why don’t you continue to be close to you? Sister, you and I grew up together, you should understand that what I hate most is deception and betrayal.”

"You..." Touching his chest, Fu Heng looked at her in horror, the blood on his face drained instantly, as if he lost the ability to speak all of a sudden, and couldn't continue a complete sentence with his mouth open.

"Yes, I have never forgotten, I know it all." Yin Wuyi said lightly, raising his head slightly. "In Tianmen Mountain, you send people to deliver letters every month. Do you know why I don't reply? I just take it as a joke. The friendship between you and me when we were young has long been dissipated in calculations. Do you think I will forgive you? ?”

"Then...why do you pretend you don't remember anything...I thought..." Fu Heng lowered his head, with a wry smile on his lips.

"If I said that I still remember, would you let me stay in Tianmen Mountain? I was seriously injured at that time, and I was powerless to resist. Only by pretending that nothing happened, can I buy time." Besides, Chu Feihuan forgot everything I can't stay with her anymore.There was a sudden smile on his face again, and Yin Wuyi continued, "Do you think I have broken contact with Chu Feihuan in the past three years? Senior sister, you are wrong. Those schemes that made your Qin army retreat steadily are all It was my idea. Sister, you came to Pucheng because you are afraid that I will remember something? I should thank you for your kindness. But senior sister, even if you have hidden guards by your side, do you think you can easily get out after entering Pucheng? ?”

"You brought the Chu army?" Fu Heng's expression changed immediately, and there was a gloomy look in his eyes.

Yin Wuwu spread his hands, still with that calm smile: "Look, senior sister, you doubt me, you say you love me, but you can't even give me your trust, if you follow you, will someday you doubt me?" Me, and then kill me?"

"Then do you think Chu Feihuan will believe you? She probably has forgotten you long ago. Who doesn't know that Princess Xuancheng of Chu's new favorite is the daughter of Feng Xiang's family." Fu Heng said coldly, then looked at Yin Yin Unintentionally, his expression softened again, even with a hint of pleading, "It was my fault before, and I don't care what you did. Come back to Xianjing with me, okay? Don't stay in Pucheng anymore."

"Yes, Senior Sister, you are right, she forgot about me." Sighing sadly, the topic changed suddenly, "But Senior Sister, I will wait until she remembers."
