The emperor's heart alone

When Xu Yunjin came to live in Donglai, it was still a little short of the appointed time, but as soon as he entered the private room, he saw Su Xiyin who had already arrived, standing in front of the window.

Xu Yunjin was taken aback: "Why did you arrive so early?" As he spoke, he approached Su Xiyin. Su Xiyin didn't wait for Xu Yunjin to come to him, then turned around and said, "There is nothing to do, so I came early. A little bit."

Xu Yunjin didn't know if it was his own illusion, the moment Su Xiyin turned his head, he actually felt that he saw grief on Su Xiyin's face, so he pursed his lips, but in the end Xu Yunjin still didn't speak.

The two of them sat down, and after a while, the dishes Su Xiyin ordered were served one by one. Xu Yunjin didn't even look at it, and knew that the food on the table was actually what he liked. Without a good-looking face, Xu Yunjin asked: "First Young Master Li didn't report any bad things back, Third Young Master Liu is doing well, Second Young Master Zhao is like a fish in water, and nothing happened to our family. You have to be reused by the superiors, why did something unpleasant happen when I looked at you?"

Su Xiyin was silent for a while before speaking: "Do you know about the war in the southeast border?"

Xu Yunjin blinked his eyes: "I heard that, didn't they all say that foreigners are making small troubles at the border? Are they going to send troops to Daping?"

Su Xiyin shook his head: "No, it's just that more and more people are being harassed. The court can't sit idly by, and can't send too many people to cause panic. My father wants to sit in the capital, so the emperor sent General Zhennan to go there. .”

Xu Yunjin nodded: "Then what do you mean?"

"General Zhennan was my father's former adjutant. This time he went to the southeast. I specifically asked him to take me to the southeast."

Xu Yunjin was shocked: "What are you going to the southeast for? There is a turmoil there right now, what if there is any danger?" He said again, "Uncle Su agreed?"

"My father agreed." Su Xiyin glanced at Xu Yunjin hesitantly, then lowered his head, "Our family is a military commander, and I am no exception. It is also appropriate to go out to earn military exploits at this time. If I can't reach my father's level, the Su family can't have no successors."

Xu Yunjin sighed: "I don't know what's the matter, now there are five people, only Zhao Ershao and I are left, Liu Sanshao and Li Dashao are busy running the business road, you are going to fight in the frontier, one They all separated in a blink of an eye...the battlefield is ruthless, how can it be so fun? According to me, you shouldn't go, it's too dangerous."

Su Xiyin laughed lightly: "How could it be dangerous? Have you forgotten that I am surrounded by people from the first floor? They are all strong in martial arts. Can't they protect me alone? Besides, you also know that now The frontiers are nothing more than small fights, they don’t have many people, so everything will be fine.”

Xu Yunjin frowned: "You can't say that. How can we know what their purpose is? What if it's just a cover-up, and wait for the imperial court to send people over to attack before they are not prepared? It is even possible to send people to assassinate all of them. It's impossible to tell."

"Okay, okay, according to what you said, if I go to the border, I will definitely die?" Su Xiyin didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and then restrained her smile, "I went this time, and I don't know when I will come back, you..." said He said, but covered the topic again, "I think he is also good to you, but he is that identity after all, and you are impatient, you should restrain yourself, otherwise..." Fu smiled again, " Look at what I said, this is the business of the two of you, why should I interrupt... Isn't it taboo..."

Xu Yunjin listened carefully, and finally heard something wrong from Su Xiyin's mouth: "What's the matter with you? You also said that Dongnan is just a small mess, and it's natural to go back quickly. I don't know when I can come back? Uncle Su has only one son like you, and you are also at the age of marrying a wife. When you come back, the general election in the palace is over, so Uncle Su can find you a girl from a good family , when the time comes, I will have an official position, and Meijiao Niang will also have it, wouldn't it be great?"

Su Xiyin's face was startled: "I have an official position...Mei Jiao Niang... also has it, heh, yes, when I come back, naturally I can do whatever I want, and I should give up what I shouldn't covet. Being too persistent is not a good thing, I should know."

Xu Yunjin became interested: "Hearing what you said, why does it sound like you have fallen in love with someone else's girl, and you are afraid that you will be married to someone else after the general election? Just say it, as long as your character is not bad and your family background is not bad, I can give it to you." It’s not like you don’t know what relationship I have with that person, if I ask, is there any reason for him not to listen?”

Su Xiyin lowered her head, swinging the empty wine glass in her hand: "...how is it possible, which girl from a decent family is not allowed to see people in the boudoir? Where should I go to see? Maybe she left recently I want to leave, so it is inevitable that I will be depressed, and if I say something unconsciously, don’t take it seriously, just take it as my nonsense before I am leaving, just listen to it.”

Xu Yunjin comforted: "Don't think about it too much. It's the first time you're so far away from home. It would be a lie to say that you're not nervous. You and I have been friends for many years, and I don't know you yet? Go ahead and do meritorious service. The mess in the officialdom You don't have to worry about the communication, I didn't dare to guarantee it before, but after that, there is no one I can't touch in this officialdom, how can there be any reason for him to take advantage of it without giving anything?"

Su Xiyin squeezed out a smile: "...don't trouble you." After that, she stood up and staggered out, "I'm leaving the day after tomorrow, and now I have to go home to pack my luggage. I, I go first."

Xu Yunjin didn't say anything to keep Su Xiyin back, but just stared at the untouched food on the table, remaining silent.

As for Su Xiyin who left the door, all the forced smiles on his face faded away, replaced by an expression that was about to cry, why couldn't he hear what Xu Yunjin meant?Inside and outside, he was telling himself what was the relationship between him and Shi Junji, saying that they were together and that their relationship was very good, so why didn't he know that Xu Yunjin was hinting that he would give up?

He, Su Xiyin, has liked such a person since he was a child, but today, this person rejected him for another person. To be honest, he is not without complaint.Why?Obviously it was Xu Yunjin he met first, obviously it was Xu Yunjin he fell in love with first, obviously he was by Xu Yunjin's side for such a long time, obviously he was the most trusted and important person besides the Xu family, even so, he still Can't compare to that person.

He didn't even have a chance to speak his mind.

Yes, they are friends, and they can only be friends. However, if they express their feelings, they will probably be strangers. He admits that he is timid, and he dare not pay even the slightest price for his extravagant hopes, so in the end he It can only be the result now, and nothing can be done.

In the imperial palace, after receiving the information presented by the people below, Shi Jun looked at it with a glance, threw the information on the table casually, and snorted coldly: "It's quite interesting."

In the evening, Shi Junji went to Xu Yunjin's place. The room was very dark, with no lights on. Through the faint light from outside, Shi Junji saw Xu Yunjin sitting at the table in a daze. With a little indescribable panic: "How do those servants serve? They even light the lights in the dark, and they should be taught a lesson." Saying this, he motioned for Xu Sa who followed to light the lights.

Xu Yunjin rubbed his forehead, and a tired voice sounded: "I told them not to order... I want to be quiet."

Shi Junji waved Xu Sa to retreat, and walked to Xu Yunjin's side: "What's wrong? I'm in a bad mood? Didn't you say that I went out with Su Xiyin today? Could it be that he said something?"

"No, it's none of his business." Xu Yunjin categorically denied it, but brought up another matter, "The next year will be the general election, don't you still want to hold it normally?"

Shi Junji only stared at Xu Yunjin, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind in just a moment.Su Xiyin is different from Chu Fang, Shi Junji knows that when Chu Fang left, Xu Yunjin was not without sadness, not so much that he sent Chu Fang away because Chu Fang liked him and he became jealous, it is better to say that In order to save Chu Fang's life.And counting carefully, Xu Yunjin's feelings for Chu Fang are not deep.Even if he thought about it a little bit, it wasn't the kind that he couldn't let go of. Both he and Xu Yunjin knew about it, but they knew it well and didn't say it out loud.

However, Chu Fang is different from Su Xiyin.It can be said that Su Xiyin and Xu Yunjin grew up together, and they have a deep friendship with each other. If there is no change, the two parties will naturally become close friends when they grow old. If things go on like this, it may not be that Xu Yunjin will not discover Su Xiyin's thoughts, nor will they see each other. Xu Yunjin would not acquiesce in the existence of this relationship, but his own appearance broke all of this, and Su Xiyin's tricks would not be effective at all.

Shi Junji was naturally very happy. If Xu Yunjin was moved by Su Xiyin, he would not want to see it. However, he realized more clearly that there was no further progress between the two of them, and in some respects he was also better than Su Xiyin. But Su Xiyin, and at this time, Su Xiyin's departure is the best result.

So Su Xiyin's father's adjutant is the coach who went to pacify the southeast this time, so since this incident happened, someone has been whispering in Su Xiyin's ears the benefits of letting him go with him, so Su Xiyin's father will speak Let Su Xi lead to the southeast.

He never underestimated any opponent, even if the opponent was so weak that he didn't even have the ability to admit his thoughts.

"I'm asking you something."

Shi Junji came back to his senses after hearing Xu Yunjin's words, and remembered what Xu Yunjin asked himself just now, and quickly replied: "Of course not, I will always think of a way this year, and I will definitely give it to your sister personally when the time comes." Marriage, let her get married in a glorious manner."

Xu Yunjin shook his head: "Give the marriage to Yu Zhaoming. If you suddenly give the marriage to the Xu family, you will always be criticized and make the Xu family stand out. Now that the Xu family is in the limelight and the holy family is strong, if there is another marriage The name of the tree will attract the wind."

Shi Junji forced a smile. Up to now, Xu Yunjin still wanted to distance himself from him in the open, but never thought of standing with him. He was unhappy, but he couldn't show it. He could only say: "Of course I know."
