hermit meets king

Si Koulin followed behind Xu Sheng, looking at the bustling crowd on the street, all kinds of snacks and gadgets on the street.This time there were no other guards following behind, just the two of them.

Xu Sheng pulled Si Koulin, who had been hiding behind him, to his side, "What are you doing hiding behind?"

"No." Si Koulin was taken aback by Xu Cheng's tug on his own.

"Look, what do you want to eat, what do you want to buy?" Xu Sheng walked slowly while looking at the things on the street.

"No." Si Koulin returned in a low voice, but in the bustling crowd, the voice was so low that it could hardly be heard.

But Xu Sheng still heard it, and said slowly, "Don't cherish it, when you enter the palace, you will really be a bird in a cage."

Si Koulin's heart was shocked. After entering the palace, where could he see these things? I'm afraid he would lose his freedom.

He looked up at the man in a black robe with a serious face beside him.Obviously a noble status, very busy.He also brought himself out specially, why?No one ever thinks of themselves.

Passing by a yelling, selling candied haws.Xu Sheng stopped, without asking Si Koulin, bought a bunch of candied haws and handed it to Si Koulin, "Take it..."

He didn't even ask himself if he wanted it?He looked up at the man, and saw that he didn't feel that he didn't have anything to force others to do, and that his clothes seemed to be taken for granted.Had he always been used to ordering?

Think about it too...

Si Koulin took the candied haws, but didn't eat them, but kept holding them in his hands.I have walked half a street and haven't eaten yet.

Xu Sheng took him to a restaurant, and the two sat down, ordered food, and ate.

When he went back, Xu Sheng bought him another kite, a small grasshopper made of bamboo.

Si Koulin lowered his head, his long hair still habitually covered half of his face, which made him feel safe.

What is different from the hand that has been shrunk in the sleeve all the time is that now it is tightly holding candied haws, a kite, and a small emerald green grasshopper.Does this tall and burly general next to him completely treat himself as a child?

Xu Cheng looked down at the young man who was half a step behind him, lowered his head, holding those gadgets tightly in his hands, really like an ignorant little animal.

The fourth prince of Si Kou Kingdom is unexpected.Is it because I think too simple, being deceived, or is it true?

Back in the team, set off on the road again.

Si Koulin got into the carriage, opened the window curtains, let the wind blow in, put the kite on the window, and watched the colorful kites whirled and whirled by the wind until they disappeared, forming a big circle.

Xu Sheng went to the carriage, opened the door curtain, and saw this scene.

The young man who had been habitually bowing his head in silence was now looking up at the kite in front of him with a smile on the corner of his mouth. His long ink-like hair was blown by the wind and scattered behind him.

The thin and handsome young man, with black hair, white man, and elf-like appearance, is like a vivid landscape painting, which is unbelievably beautiful.

Si Koulin turned his head and saw in front of a running carriage, someone opened the curtain to come in, but only stopped outside the door, the tall figure blocked the light.Si Koulin immediately lowered his head and lowered the window curtain, took back the kite in his hand, and let it hang to the side.

Xu Sheng watched, and in just a few seconds, the person who was alive like an elf just now returned to a lifeless appearance.

It was really like the little snowfox that was caught in that winter. When there were people, it remained motionless and pretended to be dead.

Xu Sheng smiled, got into the carriage, sat on the side, saw that there was only one stick left of the original candied haws next to him, and said, "In the next few days, I may stay in the carriage with you."

"Ah?" The young man was obviously very surprised, looked up at Xu Sheng, then lowered his head, and asked softly, "Why?"

"I have to go to work in the army to deal with some things, so it's convenient in the carriage." Xu Sheng looked at the fourth prince who was nervous when he saw people, and he was not good at getting along with others.

"Hmm." Si Koulin still felt awkward, although after a few days, he was no longer as afraid as when he first met him.

And he also saved his own life, and took care of himself a lot along the way, but he didn't have the habit of getting along with others.

"You don't need to care, as long as you don't interfere with each other." After Xu Sheng finished speaking, he greeted outside.

A guard carried a small table and set it up, and the Four Treasures of the Study stepped on the documents and placed them firmly on the table.

Even though the carriage was speeding all the time, the guards in front of the carriage who put things into the carriage were not affected at all.The party moved as if walking on the ground, quickly arranged things, and then retreated quietly.

Si Koulin watched this scene from the corner of the carriage, and was very surprised.I knew that the great general who can lead thousands of horses, the third prince of the Haoyuan Kingdom, and the prince of Tai'an would not be so simple, but even a guard is so well-trained and strong in martial arts.

Not to mention, he was sitting right next to him at the moment, obviously just sitting on the side dealing with the paperwork, but he exuded complex emotions that people couldn't take his eyes off, but he was afraid and surrendered to the strong.

Si Koulin lowered his head and didn't dare to look any further. The carriage was big enough to hold five or six people, but now because of the addition of desks, various things, and one person, it became infinitely cramped and cramped.Even the air has become uncomfortable.

Si Koulin occasionally raised his head to look at Xu Sheng, but that person dealt with the matter at hand with infinite ease, as if in such a confined space, it was not a big deal to have one more person, or as if he was used to it.Xu Sheng's calmness and relaxation made Si Koulin gradually no longer feel as nervous and uncomfortable as before.

Xu Sheng glanced at it, and it no longer looked like a small animal with puffed up hair, full of vigilance.He took a book and gave it to the boy, "It's not bad to pass the time."

Si Koulin took the book and saw that the general didn't care about him and was processing the document with his head down.

Si Koulin slowly turned the pages of the book. This is a book about folk myths and stories of the Haoyuan Kingdom, and the stories inside are quite interesting.

One person handles official business, the other looks down to read a book, without interfering with each other, but I am used to having such a person.

When eating, the guards will bring the food into the carriage, and the two of them will eat together.

Si Koulin always ate the white rice in the bowl silently, and he didn't even know how to pick up vegetables.Xu Sheng couldn't see it, so he brought the food in front of him and told him to eat it.

But the young man commands every action one by one, I really doubt how he grew up.

But looking at it, it really doesn't look like a prince who grew up in the royal family.He was so dull and clumsy that he couldn't even be a servant by his side.

Is this prince deliberately pretending to be harmless to humans and animals, or is it just his nature?

Even if he had amnesia before, his behavior would not be like that of a child who has not grown up, he is very childish, his behavior is not thoughtful at all, and he does not have the elegant etiquette of someone from the royal family.

On the third or fourth day, Xu Sheng finally couldn't bear it, and brought food for the young man.

After picking it up, Xu Chengcai was stunned for a moment. Since he was a child, he and his concubine had picked up each other's dishes when they ate together.Since the mother and concubine passed away, it has been six or seven years since she had a meal like this with anyone.

Si Koulin was also taken aback when he watched the general put vegetables into his bowl.Before, he would force himself to pick up food quickly and eat, and he was not allowed to eat without food.

I am an order and an action, not unwilling, but I also like the rare warmth of someone for my own good.

But I never thought that such a noble and high-ranking man would take the initiative to serve him food.

Si Koulin buried his face in the bowl, not knowing how to react.Just bowed his head and ate.

That was the only time to pick up vegetables, and in the next few days, Xu Sheng would still order the boy to eat and drink.The boy still didn't know what to do, he just lowered his head, ordering and moving.

Time passed quickly, and five or six days passed in a flash, and we arrived at the capital of Haoyuan Kingdom.

Si Koulin hid in the carriage, opened the curtain, and watched this rare bustling scene.

It is a completely different scene, bustling streets, fragrant food everywhere, gorgeously dressed pedestrians, various restaurant signs, bustling with people, very prosperous.

Even in winter, it is not a scene of dead trees and fallen trees. There are blooming flowers everywhere, and the brocade ribbons are fluttering, so it is very lively.

It's a pity that I didn't have the opportunity to go down and experience it for myself. I was getting closer and closer to entering the palace of the enemy country. What awaited me was the truly unknown danger and helplessness.

The heavier the mind, the more beautiful the beautiful and prosperous scene is, and the beauty is extremely heavy.But no one will know, only you.

Xu Cheng looked at the young man who was lifting the curtain and looking out.After five or six days of getting along day and night, the young man no longer bowed his head in front of him, and his face was full of defense and avoidance.Just like at this moment, the young man looked at the bustling outside, but his eyes unconsciously revealed the appearance of silence.

Si Koulin suddenly felt a pair of big warm hands rubbing his head.Habitually backwards, but bumped into the carriage.

"What are you afraid of?" Xu Cheng smiled, turned his head to look at the prosperity outside the window, and said calmly, "You are the prince of a country."

Si Koulin looked at half of the man's face reflecting the light, and looked out of the window, his golden eyes reflected a piece of prosperity, as if he could see in his eyes, but he also seemed to be unable to see anything in his eyes.

Why can I always see this kind of feeling in him, the calmer the cloud, the more unfathomably powerful I feel, that invisible powerful overwhelming.

Si Koulin lowered his head and did not respond to his words.

What prince, it's just a joke.Nothing and nothing to do.

It is precisely because of this that he envies the strength of a man who is as powerful as a thousand troops.

Xu Cheng looked down, and the boy who lowered his head cautiously stretched out his hand to rub his head again.

Turning his head to look at the approaching palace gate, he glanced at the palace. After four years in the frontier, now is the beginning of the real story.
