Elegant Feather

Jun Tianxi found Jun Yiyu following the sound of the Requiem.

He sat cross-legged on a high hill far away from the barracks, his back in plain white robes, perhaps because of the harsh wind at night in the outskirts, and the unimaginable fragility under the hard black armor during the day.A sad requiem came from his chest, drifting across the sky and the earth, making the sky deserted by the bright crescent moon, and the grass in midsummer seemed to have a cold appearance soaked in frost and white in late autumn.There is also the shadow of the side wall that is faintly visible in the distance, and it is also stained with the cold moonlight, which matches his flute sound, but it is out of tune with him.

There was a melancholy song in his ears, Jun Tianxi stood in the shadow of a tree that the cold moon couldn't shine, looked at Jun Yiyu's thin back sitting alone, and felt that the corners of his eyes were slightly wet.It's still the same flute player, and the bright spring scene that year when the flowers met at the end of the year will never be seen again.This sound and scene reminded Jun Tianxi that she was deceived by Jun Yiyu's bright smile when they reunited. She was so proud of his outstanding military exploits that she almost forgot that he was as kind as he was. As a doctor, she always hated killing.

"hiss--"

Not long after Jun Yiyu's flute sound stopped, Ma Ming broke the silence and also suppressed Jun Tianxi's steps that were just about to lift up. Only then did she realize that there was a black horse crouching at Jun Yiyu's feet.Is it...Zhengfei?

"Zheng Fei, don't rub me." Itching to be rubbed by Zheng Fei, Jun Yiyu recovered from the aftertaste after playing the flute. She pushed Zheng Fei's horse's head away with a chuckle, and stroked it. It's mane, then slowly stood up, "I know you are good, you can listen to me quietly after I finish playing the song, okay, okay, I'll get up now, and go back to serve Mr. Zhengfei to take a bath. Is it okay?"

Hearing that Jun Yiyu still liked to talk to his mount, Jun Tianxi "poofed" and laughed softly, but then a layer of sourness appeared in his heart.As the commander-in-chief, in order not to disturb the morale of the army, can't you play these mourning songs in the camp, only here alone, accompanied by only a horse?

"Who!" Jun Yiyu heard the sound, his eyes turned cold, he pulled the saber from Zheng Fei's saddle, and rushed towards the direction of the sound.

"Ah! My lord! Don't!" Behind Jun Tianxi, Mu Qing covered her mouth and exclaimed.

Jun Yiyu drew his saber to attack in one go, the saber reflecting the cold moonlight, accompanied by Jun Yiyu's rapid speed, let out murderous intentions, and in the blink of an eye, it became the sharpest arrow of death. There is no doubt that it will bring a threat to itself, which may be fatal!Jun Tianxi, who became a "target", did feel the condensed and substantive danger. Out of human instinct to avoid danger, she wanted to back off, but when she thought that the person holding the knife was Jun Yiyu, after all, she just stood up. On the spot, said softly, "Jun Yiyu, it's me."

"Hee'er!"

Hearing Jun Tianxi's voice, Jun Yiyu hastily withdrew his side saber, and was able to stop the attack on Jun Tianxi's left neck. Even so, the saber air still reached Jun Tianxi's ear, flying her hair strands.

"Bang!" Throwing the saber aside, Jun Yiyu nervously grabbed Jun Tianxi's shoulder, and couldn't wait to turn her sideways, so he poked his head to look at her left neck, "How is it? Is there any injury?"

Jun Tianxi shook his head, "No..."

Jun Yiyu didn't know if she heard Jun Tianxi's voice, she thought she couldn't see clearly under the shadow of the tree, so she dragged Jun Tianxi into the moonlight without saying a word.After confirming that there were no blood marks on Jun Tianxi's neck, Jun Yiyu was especially worried, and wanted to take a step back and check Jun Tianxi's whole body.It's just that Jun Yiyu's hand on Jun Tianxi's shoulder hadn't had time to let go, Jun Tianxi had already stepped forward and leaned on her, his hands naturally wrapped around Jun Yiyu's waist, and whispered "I'm sorry ".

"I'm sorry... what?" Jun Yiyu couldn't react.

Seeing that Jun Tianxi was fine, Mu Qing managed to suppress her beating heart with great difficulty, and witnessed Jun Tianxi's "throwing her arms" towards Jun Yiyu the whole time, she secretly warmed up for her master, After saluting without saying a word, he retreated into the woods voluntarily.Your majesty is like this in front of the prince. Compared with the usual days, it is really, very different... Oh, your majesty even made sense with the Supreme Emperor, and the prince has long since lost his marriage contract with Xiwu. The male master of the Tianxi Dynasty is really a nail in the coffin!

"I know you don't like killing people, but I let you come here for more than half a year and do things you hate every day."

Jun Tianxi's voice rang in her ears, and Jun Yiyu's heart was softened by the thoughtfulness in it. Out of the corner of her eyes, she caught sight of Mu Qing who was retreating with a snickering salute, and she remembered the situation she was in with Xiangyu in her arms. Jun Tianxi's depression and apology made her unable to bear to push him away.Jun Yiyu's body stiffened, he was embarrassed for a while, and finally just patted her on the shoulder, "It has nothing to do with you, I came here by myself, and I'm used to it."

The hand on Jun Yiyu's waist tightened, and Jun Tianxi was about to speak again, but was interrupted by Zheng Fei's snort, and turned his head to see the horse's head approaching himself and Jun Yiyu, Jun Tianxi straightened up and stroked it, "You horse seems to be better than before."

good?Afraid that Zheng Fei would hurt Jun Tianxi, Jun Yiyu was planning to pull her away. Seeing the familiar appearance of this man, she raised her eyebrows strangely, but seeing that Zheng Fei didn't intend to raise his hooves at all, and even arched her intimately. She touched Jun Tianxi's palm, and she knew that she was worrying for nothing, so she just took a step back by taking advantage of Zheng Fei's approach, and distanced herself from Jun Tianxi, "It really can't be called obedient..."

Jun Yiyu's silver mask was hung beside the saddle. With the movement of Zheng Fei, the swaying moonlight came into Jun Tianxi's sight. She reached out to grab it, but Jun Yiyu saw it and pressed it with her hand first. Stopped it, "It's dirty, I don't know how many people's blood has been splashed on it, don't touch it."

Jun Tianxi recalled that when he was on the city wall during the day, when he wanted to take off Jun Yiyu's mask, Jun Yiyu stepped back and avoided it, also because...dirty?Jun Tianxi's heart was soft and sore, she avoided Jun Yiyu's hand, insisted on taking off the mask, stroked its edge and said: "This time, you don't want to participate in the Northern Expedition, just wait for me when you return to Beijing." ?”

The left and right masks have already been held by Jun Tianxi. Fortunately, they have been washed before, and Jun Yiyu no longer stops him, but just shakes his head and says, "Your Majesty personally appointed me as the deputy commander of the Chinese army. How can I run away when I set off? Besides, I still want to follow to earn military merits."

"Getting military merits? You don't even want a reward, what kind of military merits are you getting?" Jun Tianxi made it clear that he didn't believe Jun Yiyu.

"Of course the military exploits that the soldiers sacrificed their lives for can't be thrown away." Looking at the mask held by Jun Tianxi, Jun Yiyu looked at the wall beside Leng Yue in the distance, and said in an ethereal voice, "I just , I don’t want to use them to be promoted to a noble, I want to save them, in exchange for the qualification to be with a person in an open and honest way.” Come to avenge Jun Kangshu and share Jun Tianxi’s worries, and earn enough credit to block the mouths of everyone. She was able to be with Changsun Rong and stay in Yu'an as she wished. This was what Jun Yiyu had planned before coming to the north, but...she overestimated herself and underestimated the cruelty of the battlefield.The practice process was too painful, she almost couldn't bear it, moreover, she barely managed one...

"You..." Jun Tianxi's heartbeat was unprecedentedly flustered, even making her, as an emperor, tilt her head in embarrassment, and dared not look into Jun Yiyu's eyes again, but it is undeniable that her heart was pounding. Jumping around, flustered, but also unprecedented joy.

I have never seen such a shy Jun Tianxi before, Jun Yiyu reflected on the foreword, and knew that he had made a big misunderstanding because of his unclear words!On the eve of the war, it is not easy to involve the love of children, and Jun Yiyu does not want to expose the elder Sun Rong to the unknown before he is sure, so he can only wave his hands and explain indiscriminately, "I...not...you..."

"Jun Yiyu, where did this mask come from? I heard that your face is not murderous enough. You wear it on the battlefield to frighten you?" After all, Jun Tianxi is Jun Tianxi, not an ordinary boudoir daughter.She took a few steps up the slope, borrowed the night breeze to soothe the heat on her cheeks, then raised Jun Yiyu's mask, and changed the subject, with only a slightly raised voice, unable to hide her teasing smile, leaked Her heart is happy.

Jun Yiyu then heaved a sigh of relief, no matter what, this place is not a good place for her to discuss her personal relationship with Jun Tianxi.Moreover, Yu Jia personally marched, tomorrow, the woman in front of her will embark on a heavy journey, at least tonight, she doesn't want to break her comfort.Jun Tianxi had been misunderstood for a long time by the phrase "the person who wants to protect his whole life", Jun Yiyu suppressed his guilt, and persuaded himself: not more these few months, and not afraid to add this time...

"Shocking? It's okay...forget it." Slightly raised her head and looked at Jun Tianxi from a high place, her eyes were brightened by the moonlight, and it was extremely rare to see some naughty colors, Jun Yiyu touched herself She couldn't help but smile along with her, but when her eyes turned to the stern mask in her hand, there was a sigh in her voice, "This mask was given to me by King Geng Zhongjie when he was alive."

"Tang Shao." Jun Tianxi also sighed.In all fairness, she was grateful to Tang Shao.If it weren't for Tang Shao's choice of loyalty, not to mention the generosity of today's Northern Expedition, I'm afraid she and her country would be hard-pressed to escape.Even Tang Shao's suicide saved her from embarrassment...

"Well, when Old General Tang was around, he often reminded me of me. I learned a lot under his tent. People say that Hu'er can ride a horse at the age of ten. It's true. When I first went into battle, I warned myself not to be lenient, but no. Coincidentally, I ran into a young man of the Hu nationality, who looked about fourteen or fifteen years old, and was injured. I could take off his head with my hand, but I really couldn't do it, so I let him go. As a result... ..." Jun Yiyu laughed at himself, and then continued: "I just turned around and he attacked me. I was not injured, but I was too tired to protect my men and lost my life. After returning to the camp, General Tang You gave me this mask, saying that it is good to cover your face, so don’t be merciful.”

After Jun Yiyu finished speaking, he looked down at his right hand. It was still a fair hand. Who would have thought that it was stained with countless blood and sins?Jun Yiyu knew her position, and could find countless reasons for herself to be stained with blood on the battlefield, but regardless of all external factors, she only upholds the respect for life and the simple way of killing, and cannot simply let go.The reason why she wears a mask on the battlefield, actually, there is one more thing she didn’t say: it’s just a self-hypnosis, put on the mask, lie to herself, the murderer is not herself, so she can decisively swing the knife again and again, no longer condone The benevolence of one's own woman has released the enemy and harmed the comrades.

"Jun Yiyu..." Through Jun Yiyu's understatement, Jun Tianxi saw his struggle, intolerance, and guilt for killing Paoze's life. Yu couldn't help but stepped forward and took his hand.Even the mask is said to be dirty, do you think your hands are dirty too?How come, how come.Speaking of it, I was selfish, when I decided to grab you and not let go, I was doomed to be like you today.Even if it's really dirty, I'll accompany you... hand in hand, okay?
