return to peace

The spring hunt takes three days in total.

Chu Lingshang watched it on the first day, so he was not interested in it on the second or third day.He often went to see the snow-white horse with a red mane on his forehead, and fed it.The emperor saw that he liked it a little, so he gave him the horse.

In the next two days, Ji Fan did not visit late at night, but the eldest prince did, but was blocked by Lin Feng on the grounds that "Young Master has rested".

On the last day, when counting the number of prey, the third prince came out on top, followed by the eldest prince, and Ji Fan came third.King Chen bestowed the "Warrior" medal and the cold iron sword to the third prince, and also rewarded the first prince with a golden bow and Ji Fan with a black iron dagger. Although the other disciples did not get these, they were also rewarded with some small things. It can be regarded as a happy event.

When returning home, Chu Zexi happily ran to the door to greet her. Before the carriage stopped, she jumped up quickly, opened the curtain, and hugged Chu Lingshang who was resting with her eyes closed.

"Ling Shang, I miss you so much." Chu Zexi said coquettishly.

Chu Lingshang found it funny, and said, "Okay, okay, I'm back." He took off Chu Zexi's body with great effort.

That night, Chu Zexi spit at the dinner table and severely accused Chu Lingshang of his evil deeds by leaving him alone. It was only then that he blocked his mouth.

At night, Chu Lingshang was reading a book leaning against the bed, when suddenly the door creaked open, and a round, handsome head stuck in.

Chu Lingshang glanced at it, turned the pages of the book, without raising his head: "Go back."

Chu Zexi acted like a baby, "Ling Shang, I haven't seen you for a long time."

The second time: "Go back."

Chu Zexi felt wronged: "Brother Lingshang, you were not like this before."

Chu Lingshang: ...

"Lin Feng!"

Suddenly a figure appeared and carried Chu Zexi back.Chu Zexi was extremely wronged, but she didn't dare to make a mistake, so she could only nibble on the corner of the quilt silently.

The room became quiet again, and after a while, there seemed to be some movement in the window, and Chen Lingshang raised his head helplessly: "Why are you here again?" But the next moment, he was stunned in shock.

Ji Fan turned around and closed the window, clapped his hands, and jokingly said, "Who do you think is here again?"

"No..." Chu Lingshang was speechless. He got out of bed and poured a glass of water to Ji Fan: "Why are you here? Didn't Lin Feng notice you?"

Ji Fan didn't treat himself as a guest, and drank immediately after taking it: "I found out, how many tricks did we go through? It's just that he saw that it was me, so he let me in."

Chu Lingshang: "...".

"I don't know if General Ji came to visit late at night, what's the matter?"

"I can't come to you if I have nothing to do? Didn't you say that I can't be aboveboard, so I have to sneak around."

What Ji Fan said was too straightforward, and Chu Lingshang inexplicably felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell for a while.There was nothing to say here, but Ji Fan started talking again.

"By the way, I hit it off with you, so don't do those fake things. If you treat me as a friend, I'll call you Ling Shang, and you can just call me Ji Fan. How about it?" Ji Fan's eyes brightened Yes, looking at him earnestly.

With him looking at him like this, Chu Lingshang couldn't say anything wrong.I had no choice but to nod in agreement.He really didn't understand why Ji Fan was so familiar with him.

"The moonlight is just right today, why don't we have a drink or two?" Ji Fan untied the wine bag hanging from his waist and invited.

Chu Lingshang refused: "You are not in good health, so you should not drink alcohol."

Ji Fan seemed to have figured out what he would say, and replied: "I knew you were weak at first glance, so you brought the lightest sweet-scented osmanthus wine. It won't affect you at all. It would be a pity if you didn't taste it."

Of course Chu Lingshang knew that Yunguixuan's sweet-scented osmanthus wine was unique in Kyoto. When he was a child, every Mid-Autumn Festival, the Prime Minister's Mansion would purchase a cartful of sweet-scented osmanthus wine, and everyone in the house could taste it.Chu Lingshang was silent for a while, but after all, he still couldn't refuse the temptation in his heart: "Okay then."

But after a cup of tea, he regretted it.He looked at Ji Fan who was smiling happily beside him, and then at the full moon that seemed a little bigger. A gust of wind blew across the roof, and he couldn't help shivering, tightening his clothes tightly, quite speechless.

"Take a sip." Ji Fan handed the wine bag to Chen Lingshang.Under the moonlight, the already big eyes were crystal clear, the tails of the eyes were slightly raised, and the sword eyebrows were flying.On the contrary, he has been very good-looking since he was a child, Chu Lingshang thought to himself.

He took a sip from the wine sac, and the smell of fermented osmanthus and glutinous rice bloomed on the tip of his tongue, and he narrowed his eyes somewhat satisfied.

Ji Fan's eyes lit up, and he leaned over and asked, "Is it good?"

Chen Lingshang nodded, subconsciously pursed his lips, and returned the wine bag to him.

Ji Fan took it and took a sip, and sat on the roof half-lying contentedly, looking at the full moon in the sky, as if he was missing something.

Chu Lingshang also lay down beside him, letting the moonlight pour down and flow silently.

"Tell me, why do people have so many troubles?" After a long time, Ji Fan's clear voice sounded.

Chu Lingshang thought for a while, and replied: "If you can't get what you want, you will naturally be troubled."

"Then what are you asking for?" Ji Fan turned his head and stared at him with bright eyes.

Chu Lingshang looked at him and smiled lightly: "I want a peaceful and prosperous world. What about you?"

Ji Fan took another sip, threw the wine bag to Chu Lingshang, put his hands behind his head, and said, "I am not as great as you, I just hope that the one I love can live a safe life."

"Peace and prosperity are doomed to sacrifice. What I ask for, there are thousands of sins hidden underneath, but what you ask for is good fruit."

"Ling Yu, you really know how to talk, even though you have no ambitions, you can still be praised."

Chu Lingshang smiled and drank silently.His drinking posture is very elegant, holding the bottom of the wine bag with one hand and holding the mouth of the wine bag with the other, he only drinks the right amount each time and will never leak out.When drinking, I will raise my head slightly, and my eyelashes will droop, casting a thick shadow on the bottom of my eyes.

Ji Fan suddenly thought of how he looked up in the forest that day, basking in the sun, and felt an inexplicable throbbing in his heart.

He lowered his eyelashes, covering the many thoughts in his eyes.Smile and continue to drink and chat.

Under the moonlight, on the roof, toasting and drinking, people are in pairs.

That day, Ji Fan and Chu Lingshang parted ways very late. Chu Lingshang was very tired, but had a rare good night's sleep.
