much loved

The bleak moonlight fell on the front of the porch, reflected on the snow-covered surface, a bit chilly.The figure of the man sitting in front of the door was hidden in the darkness, only a vague outline could be seen, showing some loneliness.

The eaves on the corridor are not wide, so you can see half of the sky when you look up.As the sun sets, the river of stars falls into the bottom of those black eyes, magnificent and vast, which makes him feel so small, unable to grasp even a small ray of sunlight.

The man breathed lightly,? The white mist breathed under the moonlight quickly dissipated in the silver light, but his mood could not be calmed down as easily.He has been listening to the movement in the house. Chu Li has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and his five senses are much sharper than ordinary people. He listened deliberately at this moment, and the sound of the big baby's breathing seemed to be in his ears.

This little thing is still in its own territory, but it has become the last straw that keeps Chu Li from falling.

As time passed, the breathing of the people in the room gradually slowed down and became shallower. Occasionally, a few murmurs of indistinct dreams could be heard.The soft voice made people's hearts soft, and the cold eyebrows softened.

The night was deep, and there was only silence, and even the sound of clothes rubbing against the quilt when turning over was infinitely amplified.The people in the room were already fast asleep, so Chu Li stood up slowly. Because he hadn't changed his posture for a long time and it was cold outside, his movements seemed slow and stiff.

When the candlestick on the table burned out the last wick and the whole room was plunged into darkness again, Chu Li raised his hand and gently pushed the door open.Chu Li's movements were very light, almost silent, and when he stood beside the bed, the burnt candle was still glowing.

The man stayed outside the house for a long time, and the temperature on his body made this sensitive and delicate bag feel it. Afraid of the cold, he rolled his whole body into the bed, and he didn't even want to pop his head out.

Chu Li's thinking also seemed to be frozen, he stared blankly at the ball of quilt, and it took him a while to react.

That's right, his delicate skin is most afraid of the cold.

Even unable to wait to go to the fire cage, Chu Li directly used his internal energy to warm his body.The most important thing for martial arts practitioners is their accumulated internal strength. The stronger the internal strength, the more refined the moves they use.If Chu Li's master were here to see him using his inner strength like this, he might faint from anger.

But Chu Li didn't care, he only focused on this delicate person in front of him who was more pampered than a child.

The darkness was not an obstacle to Chu Li, he could still see every detail of the little dumpling in front of him, bent down and gently found the corner of the quilt, fearing that people would suffocate him, he pulled the little thing's head out of the quilt Pull it out.

Because of being covered in the quilt, Liu Xiaoxiao's face was blush like a cherry, against the vermilion wreath from the top of Chu Li's head that slid down on his cheeks, like some kind of exquisite jade.Due to the person's restless movements, the thin obscene clothes were loosened, revealing a large area of ​​white skin.

Chu Li pulled up the quilt for him, but saw that the jade that was originally worn on the person had disappeared.

[You don't believe me, but you refuse to listen to my explanation. ] Suddenly, when Chu Li thought of this sentence, his heart ached.

"I'm not as brave as you." Chu Li murmured as he looked at the sleeping face who was close at hand.

He looked at the sleeping face for a long time, until the person on the bed turned over, and then he came back to his senses.The knuckles of the index finger and the back of the hand lightly touched the small face, just a simple desire to get close, and when the last spark of light on the candlestick went out, Chu Li finally turned and left.

He went to sleep in the side room, and when he saw the moved quilt and the pen and ink on the table, the sourness that had been suppressed for a long time flooded his heart like a tide.

Why didn't he come back last night to take a look?

Chu Li fell on the cold bed, opened his eyes and let his emotions tear him apart. After a long time, he was forced to fall asleep due to exhaustion.He didn't sleep for two days and one night, and his mood fluctuated because of Liu Xiaoxiao, so he finally couldn't resist the drowsiness at this moment.

Time will not stop with anyone's pain, it is still passing away like flowing water.

Liu Xiaoxiao drank the medicine three times a day as usual, and did not resist, but as long as Chu Li thought that he was so cute because he wanted to leave him, he felt extremely uncomfortable.

Liu Xiaoxiao just suffered from common wind and cold, but he was weak, and it took him more than a month to recover, and he no longer coughed.But because of drinking the bitter medicine every day, his appetite has lost a lot, and the round face that he managed to raise has lost weight after a month, and the small chin is pointed, which looks a little less childish, which makes Chu Only then did he feel that this little thing was also growing up.

If this little thing is still in the south of the Yangtze River, I'm afraid it's the son of a lot of girls' families, but now he is at the border, by his side.

Chu Li felt a strange sense of satisfaction.

I have been recuperating from this illness for a month, but I have survived the coldest period in the border area. However, the snow in the north has not yet melted, and the sun that shines during the day is not warm, and it is still winter.

Liu Xiaoxiao said very little to Chu Li every day, most of them were polite words, but Chu Li still acted as if nothing had happened.Seeing that he was deceiving himself and others, Liu Xiaoxiao didn't say much, and didn't ask to leave again, waiting for Chu Li to let him go when he got tired of himself.

After all, he doesn't know how to ride a horse, and it was a moment of impatience to leave that day. Thinking about it now, he feels a little scared.

Although Liu Xiaoxiao is cured, she still needs to drink some medicine every day to keep her healthy. The taste of traditional Chinese medicine is all kinds of strange. A few days ago, Liu Xiaoxiao got used to the spicy one, but today it became sour. It never got better.Seeing that he was eating less, Chu Li was impatient and focused on making him fatter. He hunted some rabbits and wild deer in different ways for the kitchen to do it.

However, Liu Xiaoxiao's stomach has not been stained with oil for a month, and suddenly seeing so many dishes on the dining table, it was only smelling, so her face changed, and she ran outside the door and squatted and retched.Chu Li was startled, and hurriedly asked someone to take away all the dishes on the table, and quickly took a glass of water to accompany Liu Xiaoxiao, giving him a pat on the back, as if blaming himself.When Liu Xiaoxiao got better, he passed the water in his hand.

Liu Xiaoxiao didn't want to drink anymore after taking two sips. She felt that the medicine she drank in the morning was rolling in her stomach, and it was extremely uncomfortable, so she went back to the house and wanted to sleep wrapped in a quilt.

The smell of the food still lingered in the room, and Liu Xiaoxiao was about to open the windows one by one for ventilation.Just standing in front of the window, Chu Li saw that he was about to open the window, so he rushed to open those windows, and asked while opening them, "Xiaoxiao, what do you want to eat? I'll let the cook cook it."

Liu Xiaoxiao thought about it seriously, "I want to eat Furong Cake from Jiangnan."

This is a very capricious request. Where can I find hibiscus cakes so far away from Jiangnan?However, Chu Li complied. After all, it was rare for this coquettish person to ask him what he wanted.

"Is there anything else you want to eat?" Chu Li asked softly, pushing open the last window.

The window faced the southeast, which happened to be the trajectory of the winter sun, and the warm light poured on Chu Li's face, softening the sharp edges and corners in the past. Only the temperature, the love is as deep as the sea.

Liu Xiaoxiao lowered her eyebrows and shook her head slightly.

Chu Li rubbed his little head, "Shall I have some porridge later?"

As soon as that hand was put up, Liu Xiaoxiao slapped it away, stepped back a few steps and opened the distance, "As long as the general agrees." She was unfamiliar and polite.

Chu Li is used to Liu Xiaoxiao like this, but there is still a bit of bitterness in his smile, "I'll bring the porridge." After speaking, he walked out of the room in a few steps.

Seeing him walking away, Liu Xiaoxiao was wrapped in a quilt and lying on the soft bed, which was completely his own now, and Chu Li slept in the side room in order not to annoy him.

Liu Xiaoxiao slept in the side room, it was cold and damp, Chu Li only carried two quilts over there, a bed, a bed cover, and the quilt already in the side room.Liu Xiaoxiao felt cold in the main house without a fire and covered with two quilts, and she didn't know how Chu Li could sleep with only two beds covered.

But it's none of his business, it's Chu Li who wants to sleep there.

Thinking like this makes me feel uncomfortable.It would be great if Chu Li could let him go earlier, both of them...

When Chu Li brought back the porridge, he saw that the person lying on the bed had fallen asleep.As long as this little thing is lying comfortably, it will fall asleep within 5 minutes. It can be found anywhere, and it doesn't recognize the bed. I don't know if it is a good habit or a bad habit.

The wind passed through the window and passed by the ears, the air was full of cold snow, and the light spots fell on the hand that stretched out the quilt, making Liu Xiaoxiao's skin fairer.The round nails glowed like pearls, which fascinated Chu Li.

However, the two of them are no longer what they used to be. Chu Li half-kneeled in front of the bed, and just kissed the somewhat cold hand lightly, and then put the hand under the quilt to warm it up again, for fear that his delicate body would be weak. The little thing will be seriously ill again.

Chu Li stood up and closed the window again, sat on the chair and waited. He looked at the person on the bed who only showed half of his face hidden under the quilt, and he didn't realize that time passed quickly.When he realized it, the porridge on the table had long lost its heat, and his fingertips touched the wall of the bowl, and it was icy cold.

Chu Li raised his hand to touch his face, it was also icy cold, and there were still some wet spots.Looking down at the palm, the rough palm is full of calluses and deep lines, and the water stains look a bit inconspicuous.

——Misunderstanding and shattering dreams all day long, I only hope that I will never wake up after being drunk.

Liu Xiaoxiao has a great forgetfulness, she knew that Chu Li couldn't make it even if she didn't see Fu Rong Cake for a few days, so she forgot about it not long after.

As the weather warmed up day by day, the ice and snow melted, and a convoy from the Central Plains to the Western Regions stopped in Guanzhong. It was Princess Liuyan's send-off team.

The war at the border has been stopped for half a year, and there is no movement from the Three Kingdoms of the Western Regions or the Rakshasa Sect. The old emperor wanted to take advantage of this time to send a concubine to the princess, so that the border can stay peacefully forever.So first, an envoy was sent to bring ten boxes of gold to show his heart, and after getting the consent, he sent Princess Liuyan there.

The convoy to see off relatives counted the days, and by the time they arrived, the weather at the border had already warmed up, and the time for road closures due to heavy snow had passed.

The three countries in the Western Regions are all controlled by the Rakshasa Sect, occupying the deserts in the west and the grasslands in the north. Naturally, Princess Liuyan is going to marry the person who really controls the three countries in the Western Regions - the notorious leader of the Rakshasa Sect.

But the old emperor still had selfish intentions, and picked out Princess Liuyan, who had the lowest family background and the most inconspicuous concubine, to send out. Presumably, he didn't have any father-daughter affection for this princess, and he had the right to use people as a tool for marriage.

Ruoqiang held a hunting competition in the grassland every spring, and Lian Ming would naturally go there, so the team to see off relatives had to pass through Guanzhong where Chu Li was stationed to go to the grassland.

When the weather was fine, Liu Xiaoxiao would always be forced by Chu Li to take him out to bask in the sun, fearing that he would always be bored in the house and get sick, so he happened to bump into the carriage that day.

There is a long motorcade, and there is a long queue of people standing next to the motorcade. Everyone has a little red on their body, which is quite conspicuous in the white snow.Sitting on the city wall, Liu Xiaoxiao looked curiously at the most luxurious carriage at the beginning. The carriage was also tied with red silk, and the silk ribbon was flying in the air. From a distance, it looked like a flowing red thread, which was really beautiful.

"Where did these carriages come from? What are they going to do?" Liu Xiaoxiao asked the soldiers who were sent by Chu Li to guard her, and looked at the carriages parked in front of the city gate with great interest.

After all, this pass is too boring, and there are some novelties, so Liu Xiaoxiao is naturally curious.He has seen those teams delivering grain and grass, which is different from this one.

"My lord, this is the convoy for Princess Liuyan to see her off, and she is going to marry the leader of the Raksha Sect." The soldier replied sternly, and as soon as he finished speaking, he saw the young man beside him running down the stairs, and hurried to follow.

Lian Ming left a deep impression on Liu Xiaoxiao. Now that the soldier mentioned it, he remembered it, even the appearance of that man.Curious about what kind of person would dare to marry Lian Ming, and he hadn't seen the ancient bride-off team yet, so he naturally wanted to take a closer look.

When he ran down the city wall, just as the city gate was wide open, the leading man with a suona passed in front of him, followed by the carriage he had seen just now.

Liu Xiaoxiao was curious, wanted to see who was sitting inside, she poked her head in and looked in, when a gust of wind blew up the car curtain, so a big smear of red came into her eyes.

The woman sitting in the car has creamy skin, wearing a summer dress, and a golden phoenix crown on her head. The red hijab is pulled up on the phoenix crown, revealing the appearance of a wild goose and a fish.Eyebrows like smoky black, eyes like peach blossoms, and lips painted with bright red lipstick are breathtakingly beautiful.

As if noticing that someone was looking at her, she turned her head and looked at the little boy who was staring at her in a daze.The young man, who was as delicate as a fairy and so beautiful as to be somewhat indistinguishable from male and female, fell into her eyes, and she was amazed how there could be such a beautiful and delicate figure in the border.

However, the team is still moving forward, and the faces in front of them seem to be glimpsed, and they look at each other until they are staggered and can no longer be seen.

Liu Xiaoxiao was stunned for a few seconds before she could react, and she exclaimed to the soldiers beside her: "That sister is so beautiful!" She didn't pay attention to the volume, and how loudly she spoke, she heard the woman's "giggle" chuckle from the carriage .

Liu Xiaoxiao blushed, and the woman beside the carriage jumped up and pulled up and down the handle of the curtain blown by the wind, and after tightly blocking the scene in the carriage, she turned her head and glared at Liu Xiaoxiao, before turning to the woman in the carriage The lesson said: "Princess!"

Hearing that the pleasant laughter was gone, Liu Xiaoxiao twitched her lips unhappily.

"That old lady is so fierce."

The soldier sighed, as if he had given up on this coquettish common sense, "My lord, a married woman cannot be seen by other men."

Liu Xiaoxiao looked at the carriage going further and further away, frowned and muttered: "There are so many rules."

He had seen Lian Ming before, he was looking for cats, he was a weird person, and later he heard that he was very difficult to mess with, very cruel, so he felt some sympathy for the woman in the carriage.After all, she is such a pretty girl, what a pity to be ruined by Lian Ming.

This little thing felt sorry for the fragrance, and if Chu Li found out, he might throw the convoy out of the customs right away.Fortunately, he is not here now, he is waiting for the ingredients to be delivered in the back kitchen.

In addition to her dowry and a big gift bag for Lian Ming, the future husband-in-law, the convoy accompanied by Princess Liuyan also brought a lot of food ingredients and a cook from the south of the Yangtze River.

These extra things were not already in the sending team, but Chu Li sent someone to say that he wanted someone to send them over by the way.The old emperor agreed, and naturally he would not give it to him for nothing. In exchange, he asked him to send dozens of elite soldiers to Princess Liuyan as his own soldiers, just to show off to Chu Li.

Chu Li wanted to please that squeamish boy, so he naturally agreed, and he had chosen the person early.So as soon as the convoy for seeing off relatives entered the customs, dozens of elite soldiers joined the team.The last part of the team was prepared for Chu Li. As soon as he entered the customs, he was stopped by the soldiers at the gate of the city and sent to Chu Li. People who didn't know thought it was a robber from somewhere.

So that night, Liu Xiaoxiao ate hot hibiscus crisps.Chu Li sat and watched him eat as if offering a treasure, and he was also happy to see that Liu Xiaoxiao liked to eat more than usual.

"When will this convoy leave?" Liu Xiaoxiao asked casually.

This was the first time in the past two months that this squeamish person took the initiative to talk to him. Chu Li was flattered and pointed at himself, as if asking if he was talking to him.

Liu Xiaoxiao always felt sad seeing his cautious appearance, Chu Li shouldn't be like this, he is a general, the god of war in the hearts of the people, how could he treat a person like this?

"Who are you?" Liu Xiaoxiao looked annoyed, and simply turned her eyes away from him.

Chu Li didn't care about the averted eyes, suppressed his frantically beating heart, and answered softly, his voice was full of joy.

"They will leave after a few days of rest. If Xiaoxiao is free and they quarrel, I will let them go tomorrow. Do you like the carriage that Princess Liuyan is riding in, Xiaoxiaoxi? I ​​will take it off and you can use it?"

This is quite the bandit.

Liu Xiaoxiao glared at him, "I didn't talk about making noises, and you are not allowed to think about the carriage." He felt sorry for Princess Liuyan, and felt that it was too sad for her to marry alone in a foreign country and be abandoned by the royal family.

Chu Li didn't know what he was thinking, but felt that the two of them were no longer so estranged, the haze in their hearts for many days finally stopped making it difficult to breathe on their chests, and the handsome face became softer.

"Xiaoxiao, it would be great if we could also get married." He murmured, looking almost obsessively at the more refined and beautiful boy across the table.

Unexpectedly, the young man who had calmed down just now put down the chopsticks in his hand and snorted coldly, "General, it's better not to joke." After speaking, he stood up.

Chu Li watched him walk out of the room quickly, and when he heard the door close with a "bang", his heart skipped a beat, knowing that he had said something wrong.He whispered the person's name, and silently put away the unfinished hibiscus cakes on the table.

Distraught, Liu Xiaoxiao turned around the pass, but bumped into Princess Liuyan's convoy that she had seen in the afternoon. There was no one beside the convoy, and they must have rested in a tent not far away.

Liu Xiaoxiao stood in front of the carriage where Princess Liuyan was sitting in the afternoon, looked up for a while at the red silk tied on the top of the beam, stepped on the shaft of the carriage like a mischievous one, and tore off the silk ribbon.

"I want to be happy too." The bad guy said to himself, and looked around guiltily to make sure that the vicious woman was not there.

Just as he turned around and was about to leave, he suddenly heard a very pleasant voice from behind, which made him froze.The voice was like pearls falling on a jade plate, with a hint of a smile, he had heard it before in the afternoon.

"Hello." The princess in the carriage slowly opened the curtain, her eyebrows and eyes curved, "You tore my red silk, where are you going?"

The author has something to say: My estimate was wrong, I should be able to open a new map tomorrow_(:з)∠)_
