Snow Chihiro

==========================

There are always many things in the world, which obviously have passed through a long time, but happen to give people the illusion of "blink of an eye".When Dongfang Li looked at Dongfang Xi, he had this feeling again. It took only a blink of an eye to grow up from a weak little dumpling in his infancy to his thin but tall, arrogant Highness.

She looked away slightly, as deep as a pool in a valley, polite and distant: "The move of the divine religion is only for the Central Plains and has nothing to do with the court. Your Highness doesn't need to take it to heart. Now I have asked people to pack their bags. Set off for Heimuya in an hour."

Now that Aliang's matter has come to an end, Dongfang Li doesn't want to stay in Hamiwei any longer. Now that the three brothers and sisters get together again, they are afraid that they will embarrass each other instead.The friendship and stories between them were left to be solved by themselves, and she didn't want to get involved at all.

Dongfang Xi was stunned, his eyes darkened, "Is it too hasty to start today? What's more, tomorrow is New Year's Eve, so it's not lively enough to live on the road."

"Only half of the three people in 310 are left. This New Year's Eve can't be lively."

Su Qiumin took the conversation from the side, and looked at Dongfang's stinging words, "Earlier, I only heard that Dongfang Bubai killed people like hell, but now I see that he is a person who values ​​love and righteousness, and I am admired by my little girl! It's not like some people who are trying to make a name for themselves." , and secretly regard human life as worthless.”

She stabbed Dongfang Xi, but Dongfang Li still felt a little uncomfortable, his eyebrows were furrowed, and he didn't say much.Xue Qianxun on the side was keenly aware, sighed secretly, and folded the letter in her hand, "Thank you, Miss Su, for reporting the news." She suggested that the two of them meet together, because she wanted the Su family to give Dongfang Xi an envoy on her behalf. It was a stumbling block, but the leader who just said something bad just frowned, and she couldn't help but come out to make things right when she saw it.

Su Qiumin was happy, and praised very sincerely: "You are welcome, Director Xue. I heard that Director Xue suffered a lot when Hami attacked the city a few days ago, and was hung outside the city by His Royal Highness to lure the enemy. Catching arrows to save people is safe and sound. Now that you are so magnanimous when you meet your enemies, you must be so generous!" As soon as she said this, Dongfang Li and Dongfang Xi's expressions changed, but Xue Qianxun was still smiling. The conversation turned around, and he poured down the medicine again: "I just don't know how Chief Xue offended His Highness, and what relationship he has with Nahawuer and Kuangyun Gang, and told His Highness to disregard the Sun Moon God Sect's favor of helping him, and to do this ruthlessly." hand?"

There was a thump in Dongfang's heart, Dongfang Li waved his hands first, and said displeasedly: "The people of the divine religion, and the affairs of the divine religion, have nothing to do with outsiders. The righteousness of the Su family will be rewarded generously in the future. Tong Zuoshi, see a visitor out!"

Tong Baixiong clasped his fists in response, and said to Su Qiumin: "Miss Su, please."

Dongfang Xi squinted at Su Qiumin and smiled, but he heard Dongfang Li say: "I want to set off, so I don't have time to accompany you. Tong Zuoshi, let's send it off together!"

Tong Baixiong: "...His Royal Highness, please."

Dongfang Xi stood up abruptly, and shouted in a low voice, "Master Dongfang!"

Dongfang Li glanced at her, but kept his hands behind his back and said nothing.Dongfang Xi was about to explode, another person was brought in by the congregation outside the sect, he was about to bow down and report to Dongfang Li, but Wei Ba had already rushed to Dongfang Xi and whispered in his ear.Dongfang Xiben also changed his angry face suddenly, lost his color in an instant, and was about to go out in a hurry, but stopped when he reached the door, turned his head and said silently: "I heard that the Five Sacred Sword Sect has all The attack on Heimuya was repulsed by your teacher, but a few days ago Xiaoxiao went up the mountain and made a big fuss, which damaged many people, and the acting director Yingying was also missing. Now Elder Yang Hang is acting as the representative of the school. I hope that the Eastern Hierarch will return to take charge. My palace is here to pay respects to the Eastern Hierarch in the early years, and may the Sun Moon God Sect, for generations to come, unify the world."

After she finished speaking, she hurried out, Su Qiumin felt bored and left too, but Wei Ba took a deep look at the two before leaving hastily.Tong Baixiong dismissed the rest of the congregation first, and then asked: "Did Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess do it? Is this... considered a reward? Then the Eldest Miss... went?"

Dongfang Li and Xue Qianxun looked at each other, and sighed: "There has been no news about this matter. Most of it is related to her. We can only go back and look at the specific situation. Tong Zuoshi, order all brothers to wait in the front yard in half an hour. Gather, set off, and return to Blackwood Cliff."

Tong Baixiong took the order and left, only Dongfang Li and Xue Qianxun were left in the hall.Dongfang Li still thought about what Su Qiumin said before, and observed Xue Qianxun's expression, but he didn't find any doubt or anything else.Xue Qianxun seemed to focus on the latter two matters, and said first: "Then Elder Yang is an old member of the Sun Moon God Sect, but he is subordinate to her according to His Highness's wishes, did he prepare for it or buy it temporarily? Seeing her appearance, it has been arranged for a long time, I think she made up her mind to deal with this matter early, so as not to worry about the leader." Seeing that Dongfang Li ignored her, she raised her head and took a step closer, a little puzzled, Dongfang Li's heart tightened, and she twisted At the beginning, he said: "Perhaps she has made up her mind to hold you a long time ago, and first set up the situation on the side of Heimuya, so that you and I will take this kind of favor. It is difficult to blame her too much." After Dongfang Li finished speaking, he slapped his tongue. After finishing the knot, I realized that I had brought up Xue Qianxun again without knowing it.

Xue Qianxun didn't realize it, and didn't ask the question on the Black Wood Cliff, but instead asked: "Did the leader hear what Wei Ba asked His Highness to say just now?"

"Would I listen to a whisper? Did you?"

Xue Qianxun stuck out her tongue, "I think the leader just went to see Miss Weiba! I didn't mean to eavesdrop, but I just accidentally heard a name."

"Who?"

"Su Yin."

No wonder she left in such a hurry, but seeing that she still had time to turn around and talk to herself for such a long time, she knew that Su Yin was not in any danger.Dongfang Li helplessly looked at Xue Qianxun's bright eyes, shook his head and said, "Don't care about these trivial matters, we pack up and leave."

"Yes, Master." Xue Qianxun curled her lips, no matter she was wronged and used severely, but she couldn't see the eldest princess looking deflated and balanced. It's really a pity.It's just that nothing is more important than being by the leader's side, so she soon regained her spirits, quickly kissed Dongfang Li's chin, jumped away and said, "I'll go and pack the leader's luggage."

"Qianxun!" Dongfang Li called to her, with a complicated expression on his face, "Do you know everything?"

Xue Qianxun paused, "I don't know."

Dongfang Li smiled wryly: "If you really don't know, how can you answer without asking what it is. You can think..."

Xue Qianxun interrupted her for the first time, "I don't ask, because I know the leader thinks I shouldn't know." Her smile was natural and bright, "Then I will never ask, and I don't need to know."

------------------------

For things like feelings, if we say luck, it is that I love you and you also like me, and there is nothing that can stop us from being together.

But luck is called "lucky" because it is always too few.

Dongfang Xifu was still a little flustered when she got into the carriage and ordered to run wildly, but when the carriage started to jolt, she quickly calmed down and ordered in a low voice, "Slow down."

Su Yin is not an ordinary person, even the imperial palace can slip in disguised, is it not easy to leave Hamiwei quietly?She went in and out of her courtyard silently, but she was found and intercepted at the city gate, which could only show that she was waiting for him.

Dongfang Xi leaned his head back and closed his eyes. The guards outside the car didn't know what was going on, so he could only follow his advice.Qingji felt strange and uneasy at the same time.

"What do you think she wants?" Dongfang Xi asked suddenly.

Qingji froze for a moment and quickly sat up straight, but didn't know how to answer.

Dongfang Xi gave her a choice, "Does she want Bengong to coax her, or do she want to prove that Bengong cares, or do she need a promise that will never be broken?"

Qingji felt bitter, shook her head and said, "I don't think so."

Dongfang Xi suddenly opened his eyes, "Then what are you talking about?"

"The slave does not know."

"If you were her, what would you want right now?"

Qingji was even more confused when she heard the words, and said carefully: "If you talk about coaxing, His Highness has been coaxing these days. If you say you care, Miss Su can't understand it. If you want a promise, this servant thinks Miss Su won't Doing such capricious things, just for some useless things."

Yes, she is a casual person, but she has never been willful by her side.Dongfang Xi laughed at himself and didn't ask any more questions.

Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess understands people's hearts, she can see through her confidant's subordinates at a close distance, and she can guess at a person she has never met before, but she has never bothered to understand the person she is closest to.She thought that Su Yin was waiting for her, so she slowed down and thought about the countermeasures, but she never thought that the reason why Su Yin was waiting for her could be simple-to say goodbye.

Fortunately, Su Yin was not in a hurry, otherwise she would not have chosen Ximen. The battle ended, and no one except soldiers would be allowed in or out.She stood by the city gate, dressed in plain clothes, ignoring the group of guards and Gu Changfeng who had just rushed over, she reached out and gently stroked Zhu Yi's neck beside her.It was a four-year-old steed, whose name was changed from Bai Yi, one of the eight horses of King Mu of Zhou, and would become her most important partner in the next ten years or so.

She combed unhurriedly until the street carriage came into sight and the sound of horseshoes approaching did not stop, but became more gentle, but her eyes stopped on the curtain of the carriage.The coachman jumped down, and a slender white hand stretched out to lift the curtain. She knew it wasn't Dongfang Xi's hand, but she still looked at it.

Dongfang Xi was behind Qingji, and without her help, she jumped down, walked up to Su Yin calmly, and said with a smile: "Why did you come here? The sun is not good today, the wind is cool, let me go back home with me .”

Su Yin stared at her face, smiled softly, and slowly moved her eyes, as if trying to imprint the whole person in her mind.

Dongfang Xi took another step forward, "I specially asked the chef to cook your hometown food. If you go back late, the food will be cold."

Su Yin nodded lightly and said: "Sister Xi is not in good health now, it's good to eat something light, but don't eat too sweet."

Her well-behaved and sensible appearance made Dongfang Xi feel flustered, forced a smile and wanted to reach out to touch the horse's head, but Zhu Yi tilted his head to avoid it, and she went over with her hand, wrapped Su Yin's hair, and said in a low voice: "I still have to rely on you to take care of me, otherwise I will not realize it, and others will not be able to persuade me."

Su Yin covered her mouth with a smile and said, "Sister Xi is joking with Yin'er, right? You're obviously talking about me."

Although she was smiling, there was light in her eyes, but that light was not hope and happiness, but a mist of mist.Dongfang Xi had never seen such a supple yet resolute look on her face, and finally she couldn't calm down, clasping Su Yin's shoulders with both hands.Gu Changfeng, who had retreated a few steps, lowered his head and waved his hands, leading everyone to retreat twenty steps away.

Dongfang Xi had no time to praise him for his wink, and asked slowly, "Where are you going?"

Su Yin blinked, "During the days I was in Hamiwei, I heard a lot about the world outside of Ming Dynasty from the merchant, which is very interesting. Sister Xi is destined to be inseparable from this land, and I can also go and see it for you, and I will return in the future Let me tell you." Traveling in mountains and rivers was originally her favorite thing, but she put it on hold for six years because of one person.

"Who said I can't live without it! Waiting to repel the Mongolian Tatars..."

Su Yin looked into her eyes and said calmly, "I know you can't leave."

Dongfang Xi couldn't continue, took a deep breath, and sighed: "Are you still blaming me?"

"I also complain, and I don't complain."

"Yin'er. The Su family has been passed down for four hundred years, and you know its strength better than me. Taixu Palace can't protect you. Only the identity of the eldest princess of the Ming Dynasty can be relied on by you and me! If Daming ceases to exist, you How can I stay together? Although I have made a covenant with Mr. Su, after this crisis is over, the whole world will be alive, so I will naturally be able to draw my hand..."

"Naturally, you can deal with the Su family." Su Yin continued her words: "Mr. Su will send me back no matter how he picked me up. If you don't follow, you can use the mighty master to raz the Su family to nothing." Pingdi. Your Highness, Sister Xi, I know you never thought of giving up on me."

Then why are you leaving?Dongfang Xi didn't understand.She didn't ask, but Su Yin knew what she was thinking, and said with a wry smile, "I'm very happy that you can keep me. However, if there is any dispute between you and the Su family, no matter the outcome, it is not what I want. Now I leave the Central Plains to Mr. Su's temper will never take his anger out on you at will, and sister Xi doesn't have to go to war for me."

Dongfang Xi said coldly: "If you leave, once the Tatars are broken, I will wash the Su family with blood!"

Su Yin smiled and shook her head, "You don't do things that harm others or yourself." She looked up at Dongfang Xi slightly, let go of Zhu Yi's hand holding the rein, and stepped forward to hug her. "I want to go out and have a look. If you still remember me, wait for me for ten years."

Dongfang Xi murmured, "What if I haven't been here for ten years?"

Su Yin's body stiffened, and she lay on her neck, and said in a muffled voice, "If you have no one else, I'll go over to accompany you."

This is not the answer Dongfang Xi wanted, but Su Yin raised her head and stood up straight to try to push her away. Dongfang Xi stretched out her arms and hugged the soft body in her arms, and said in a trembling voice: "When you were in the palace, you once said You want me, Yin'er, tomorrow is New Year's Eve, if you can stay, I..." To her, this was already a begging!

Su Yin interrupted her, and broke free with a little force, "Don't keep me anymore." Is it because she doesn't want to see her pleading, or doesn't want to listen anymore, or is she afraid that if she says one more word, she will be defeated?

Su Yin herself couldn't tell the difference, and Dongfang Xi couldn't tell the difference either. She looked at her empty hands, and then at Su Yin who turned over on the horse. It will fall down in a moment.But before that "next moment", she remembered that she was the eldest princess of Ming Dynasty, Her Royal Highness with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in the Hami Guard, and the leader of Taixu Palace. She could not retreat, let alone fall, she should not beg .

"Open the city gate and let her go. Once you leave, don't look back."

Su Yin really didn't look back, Dongfang Xi stood at the same spot and looked, but she couldn't be seen, and when the city gate was closed again, she still didn't look back.If you can't see it, you will not give up, if you don't give up, you will still stand there.She didn't turn around calmly until another hidden guard came to deliver the report.

"Your Highness, the Eastern leader of the Sun Moon God Sect has left the city with more than 160 congregants."

Dongfang Xi slightly hooked the corners of his lips, and waved to Qingji, "What day is today?"

It was sunny and silent.

She smiled and replied: "On the twenty-ninth day of the twelfth lunar month, Qinglong, Mingtang, Jinkui, Tiande, Yutang, Siming, six stars are on duty, auspicious days, everything is suitable. Good one, everything is suitable."
