Lonely desert

Beidi's agreement to reconcile was beyond everyone's expectations, and Jin Suian was no exception.I thought that this time I would be able to return to the court with glory after successfully completing the holy order.

Then...Since Jin Suian has doubts about me, and I have no intention of staying in the court, why don't I resign from my official position, to relieve Jin Suian's suspicion of me, and to settle my own trouble annoying.

However, what I didn't expect was a cup of poisonous wine that Jin Suian rewarded me a long way away.

I would have my heart to the bright moon, but the bright moon illuminates the ditch.

Fate is just that I paid my loyalty wrongly once, and in the end I got killed in exchange.The king let the minister die, and the minister had to die.In this way, the cumbersome matter of resigning from office is avoided, and now it is a good opportunity to use this to get out.

Everyone praises the prosperity of Chang'an, but unexpectedly, amidst the delusion and delusion, people's hearts have already lost their original appearance, and there are very few people who are wary of every possible way for the sake of power.

I don't have any resentment, it's just that I don't have enough affection for him as a monarch and his ministers, I just blame him for being a high-ranking king, so he must be on guard against everything, not to mention that even his brothers, the King of Liang, will rise up this time Rebellion, he took precautions against me as a matter of course, and letting him have doubts in my heart was also the result of my own cleverness.

I fell on the night of the celebration banquet. Everyone knew the cause of my death, but I avoided talking about it. I only said that I was seriously ill after coming to Jiangcheng, and died without treatment...

Fortunately, Jin Suian's rejection of me allowed me to simply bury my body outside Jiangcheng.

I used a little method to get away, and there will be no Ci Chen in heaven/chao from now on, and now Ci Chen returns to heaven and earth, and Zhong Yu is the one who whipped his horse and brought me back to Beidi on the lonely desert.

Now that he has passed the catastrophe of fate and escaped from the heaven/dynasty, knowing that there is no god in the world who loves God, he has nothing to fear.

In the God Realm, let me just assume that I cannot survive the catastrophe this time.Once again, out of selfishness and sincerity, I tied a golden red thread between Shan Pei and my fingertips. Even if I die, as long as my soul is still alive, I can live with him forever.

Shan Pei hid my identity in Beidi for me, and Hu Ye was the only one who knew my details. Although he was dissatisfied with me, he devoted himself to Shan Pei, and he was willing to be dumb about this once.

I heard from Shan Pei'an who was stationed in Chang'an that the prince had been sad for a long time because of my death, and even suffered a minor illness during the period. After that, Jin Suian searched for many candidates for the prince, but the prince politely refused. Threatening that there is no longer any need to wait for reading.Jin Suian couldn't help it, so he gave up on it.

If it comes to my bondage in Chang'an, now that Shan Pei belongs to Beidi, only the prince is left.

"The prince is affectionate and righteous, caring for the people, and treating others with kindness and generosity. Although he lacks scheming and planning, he seems to have the appearance of a wise king."

Shan Pei sat by the side picking grapes, curled his lips, and said in displeasure, "Prince Cichen is so kind to you? You have never praised me like this before."

I smiled helplessly, Shan Pei is really a child like forever.

"I haven't had time to tell the prince about my plan of feigning death, and now I just make him sad and hurt, and I feel ashamed."

He pulled me over to sit next to him, handed me a peeled grape, and I took it.

Hearing this, Shan Pei immediately felt sorry for me, saying: "Cichen, you are always like this, if Jin Suian hadn't been too suspicious of you, why would he be so eager to kill you and make the prince so sad? If you want to say that you are ashamed, you have to be guilty." He Jin Suian is ashamed of you, even if the crown prince wants to blame him, he should blame it on his father, nothing hinders you."

"That said, but..."

He stuffed a grape into my mouth and interrupted: "Ci Chen, don't worry, I will feel even worse if you talk about it."

I couldn't laugh or cry, "Okay, I won't mention it. Thanks to the prince who took good care of you in Chang'an, now you don't think of him, so you don't allow me to mention it."

"Cichen, let me tell you frankly that during the time I was in Chang'an, I remembered that the prince often kept you in the palace very late. I even suspected that the prince had a crush on you, and I was always worried..." His words came to an abrupt end Stop, and then speak, silence speaks louder.

I knew what he meant, so I didn't point it out, and deliberately joked: "Do you think everyone is like you?"

"What's wrong with me?" As soon as Shan Pei heard that I was comparing him, he immediately refused to admit defeat, "What about me? Although I fell in love with you at that time, I never had the idea of ​​overstepping the rules. Who knows Is he pretending to be self-serving..."

I saw that his speech was becoming more and more inaccurate, so I quickly covered his mouth, "Is it really strange that such words come from your mouth?"

Shan Pei seized the hand I stretched out, kissed it lightly, and said with a smile: "I'm not swindling public affairs for personal gain, and what I do is justified."

I have nothing to do with Shan Pei. I didn't think he still has the potential to make such strong words today.

The life in Beidi is much more comfortable than in Tian/Chao. Shan Pei has no intention of inheriting the mantle of King Beidi, and the brothers in front of him are also accomplished in literature and martial arts, so King Beidi let Shan Pei a lot.

Shan Pei was originally not a quiet character, so he led me to gallop in the wilderness all day long, watching the undulating snow-capped mountains, climbing a desolate wall to overlook the land of Beidi, and also went to many magical places. The ground, if you are tired, you will lie down on the ground, the sky is the quilt, and the ground is the mattress.

And Shan Pei always likes to pull me and let me tell him what happened before I met him.

"Ci Chen, what is the scene in your Los Angeles? Is it the same as Chang'an?"

Los Angeles?Los Angeles is the place where I practiced Taoism with my master. At that time, the heaven/chao and the four tribes had not yet been born, and they all belonged to Li Kingdom. It was neither the capital nor a big city. It was not prosperous, but it was lively. I also have a shallow impression of Los Angeles.

"Although it's not as good as Chang'an, it's a different scene. If there is a chance, let's go for a visit together?"

Hearing my words, he was very excited and immediately responded, "Okay."

"However, Cichen, you told me before that your parents passed away since you were young, and you were raised by your master. I have never met the master and his old man."

Since I went down the mountain, my master has lived in seclusion in the mountains for several years, and I don’t see anyone on weekdays, but now..." I couldn’t help feeling a chill in my heart, it’s really a pity that the family has declined.

I thought that when I first entered the mortal world, I went to visit the teacher's school, but unexpectedly, all I saw was desolate and desolate scenes. It really is that Taoism has fallen.

"How is it now?"

I sighed, and continued: "Now I can't find it either. Master and his old man travel all over the world, and the world is their home. All disciples who go down the mountain are not allowed to return to the master's school, so I rarely mention it."

"I think Master is a master who is independent from the world."

I smiled slightly, and I was indeed an expert, traveling in the sky, traveling all over China, living in harmony with the heaven and the earth, and even the emperor of heaven did not dare to restrain him.

When I mentioned this, I thought of the Taoism I had learned before, and then I thought of Shan Jue.

When Beidi was at war with the sky/dynasties, Shan Pei seemed to have forgotten about Shan Jue. He didn't ask for Shan Jue to return to Beidi until he talked about the peace talks. I thought he had forgotten, but then I remembered what he said before. Like someone who will forget his brother.

"By the way, I still have a question for you."

He turned his head and looked at me, "What question?"

I also turned my head to stare into his eyes, and asked, "Why didn't you take your brother Wang away during the chaos in Chang'an that day, and didn't mention it again after that?"

He froze for a moment, then slowly got up, sat cross-legged, and his spirits were a little off, "Ci Chen, I deliberately concealed this from you at the time. Brother Wang has passed away for seven years, and I have known it since I entered Chang'an for half a month. , Later, when the situation forced me, I lied to you."

When I heard Shan Pei's words, I smiled lightly and thought to myself: So this is fate.

If Shan Pei hadn't lied to me, I wouldn't have gone to Zhaoming Palace, so I wouldn't have met Shan Jue, and I wouldn't have known about those past events, and Shan Jue and Yun Shi would really be separated forever, and they wouldn't alternate with each other. I can't survive the catastrophe of my life, let alone what happens after that.Somewhere, my catastrophe was quietly tied to Shan Pei?

"What are you laughing at?" At some point, he put his hands on the ground, leaned back slightly, and turned his head to look at me.

I was very comfortable lying on the grass, and I could see him just by raising my eyes slightly.I teased me with an undiminished smile: "I was just wondering how many things you lied to me in Chang'an at that time."

He leaned down, put his arms on my sides, his eyes were full of love, and he said softly: "My intentions before are not lies, and what I say in the future are not lies."

My smile grew stronger, and I was very playful, "This sentence seems to be familiar, I don't know where I heard it before."

He didn't care about what I said, as if he knew that I would not do anything to him, he leaned over and kissed my forehead lightly, and whispered: "This account, you keep it and turn it over slowly, otherwise there will be less fun in the future."

The days are unremarkable, but like a white horse passing by, it is unstoppable to pass by.

In a blink of an eye, it was September, and in Beidi, September is a sacred month.

I heard Shan Pei explain that it was because their ancestors founded the Beidi Dynasty in September, and it lasted for a long time, all thanks to the desert that raised them.Although the homeland is now fertile and can no longer be called lonely and deserted, this claim seems to be a convention of Beidi people who are unwilling to change their mouths.

September [-]th is the day when Beidi established the dynasty. According to the custom, the officials all rested and had to wait for a banquet in the church to celebrate the opening of the dynasty.

Unlike his brothers, Shan Pei left the preparations for the sanctuary and dragged me to the roof of the highest palace in Beidi to enjoy the moon and drink together. History of rise and fall.

I don't know enough about the changes of the heaven/dynasty over the years, so I can only talk to him about the folk affairs of the previous dynasty and the reasons for the ups and downs of Taoism.

Shan Pei acted as if he was listening to a story, so he asked me with a smile, "Cichen, why are you so familiar with the events of the previous dynasty, some of which I have never even heard of."

"Would you believe me if I said I was born in the previous dynasty?"

Naturally, Shan Pei didn't believe it, he just thought I was joking with him, so he agreed a few times.

For a moment, Shan Pei suddenly stopped laughing, and asked seriously: "Ci Chen, do you still remember that when we first met, I asked you about the calligraphy, why didn't Ci Chen perform the crowning ceremony last year? "

In the past, in the teacher's school, the master only called us the Taoist name, and never crowned the disciples with Biaozi, so there was never a Biaozi.It was just a perfunctory Shan Pei on Chang'an Street back then, but he actually remembered the present.

I had to make up a set of arguments, "In our city of Los Angeles, the coronation ceremony has to be presided over by a local high-ranking person, and my father wears the crown for him. My parents died early, and I have no relatives or friends, so I naturally omitted it. It also has to be based on the date of birth and the expectations of the elders, since the parents have passed away and the teacher has disappeared, it will be saved."

"But... But, I heard that adding a crown to your hometown is an indispensable thing in your life. Now Cichen, do you have any regrets in your heart?"

Seeing his serious appearance, he frowned slightly, as if he was talking about it.There is a slight wine blush on his face, and his appearance is really cute.

I looked at the full moon and couldn't help laughing: "Now that I'm in Beidi, I should abide by Beidi's rules, and I don't feel any regrets. God's arrangement has its own purpose, and I have never cared about it."

Shan Pei suddenly reached out and grabbed my right hand. I turned my head to look at him. His face was full of wine, and his eyes were shining under the moonlight.Then he leaned his head on my shoulder and said softly: "In the future, I won't let Cichen be wronged again."

The author has something to say:

This article was posted after the full text was saved. Originally, I wanted to simply tell the story of Yihuo and Qing Jiu’s Zhongsiyuan. At first, I planned to No.1 to describe it like Yihuo. Later, I felt that they had experienced too much. It's like, it's not interesting to follow the same routine, so I changed the form a little.But the length of this article is indeed more than I thought.

I will write whether you are or not.I always liked the song "Qizhi" before, and I planned to write a derivative story, but it seems that some issues involved are not clear and I haven't made a brief outline, so I may not be able to write it.There are two more chapters left in this book.
