Rong Xuan

Sima Xiu, King of Qingxu, is a vicious wolf. Under his command, the invincible northern army adheres to this sentence: one man must die, ten thousand men must die, ten thousand must die, and run rampant in the world.

And Cao Ke, the Duke of the first rank who was the same age as the emperor of the current dynasty, as the chief minister of the cabinet governing the world, his beliefs appear to be much gentler-"Listen to my advice, I have no regrets, it is the sincere words of the monarch and ministers Please."

However, it was precisely this kind of "pleading request" that sounded gentle and calm, but it was actually sharper than all the knives, guns, swords and halberds in the Northern Frontier Army put together.

——It was Cao Ke's "conspiracy" that allowed the emperor of the dynasty to have a place to rely on. Eight years ago in the bloody massacre that stirred up the world, Pingshanhe was in turmoil, and the country was in a sea of ​​blood. Chao Gang subverted before it happened.

To this day, anyone who knows the truth behind the suppression of the rebellion has not cried bitterly for Cao Gong's awe-inspiring righteousness.

It's just that the cunning rabbit is dead and the dog is cooking, and the bird is doing its best to hide. Now that Mr. Cao has gone, whose turn will it be next?

……

The father and brother were accused of treason, the Cao family was wiped out, and the entire Fuguo Duke's mansion was burned to the ground. So what is left over from eight years ago, how much can Xuemu Hongclaw have?

Cao Hui took his father's belongings and sat alone in the study in the inner courtyard until late at night like a demented fool.

The scorching sun is in the south. Although the mid-spring season here is comparable to the late spring season in Chang'an, it is still cold in the middle of the night.

After meeting the confidant sent by his father, Sima Xuan suddenly felt that something heavier was being placed on his shoulders, which she might not be able to bear. walked out.

Stretch out your hand, feel that the night is as cool as water, and then look up, and see the starry sky like washing.

Everyone knows that people change from time to time, and those who know change according to the situation. Sima Xuan knew that she was not smart, so every step she took up to now has been cautious and trembling, not daring to leave the slightest room for maneuver, but suddenly for a moment, she felt I don't have that spirit anymore.

Really, very tiring-intrigues, intrigues, scrambles, physical and mental exhaustion.

The desire to kill and attack surged in her heart, Sima Xuan really wanted to pull out all the nails in Tianjia's eyes one by one with a knife - but she couldn't do that.

If she really does this, maybe everyone will be happy, and even Cao Hui, who she risked her life to protect, will have a stable life for the rest of her life.

But if this is the case, how should one judge pure kindness, loyalty and righteousness in this vast world?How to decide right from wrong?Right and wrong, and where to find the yardstick for measurement?

As the moon bends over Kyushu, some people are happy and some are sad.

As for Cao Hui, Sima Xuan never dared to expect anything extravagantly. After all, he only had one sentence-"I am lucky if I get it, and my life is lost".

"Master, master——" Liu Sheng suddenly appeared from the slant with a lamp, and almost slipped without stopping. After he stood still, he rubbed his nose and said, "Yuyan said Madam I still stayed in the inner study and didn't come out, dare to ask the master to take a look after finishing the matter in hand."

My master's complexion is not very good, if it is not related to his wife over there, the remaining life of the monkey spirit will not come to touch the master's bad luck at this time.

Sima Xuan had a cold face, and Lao Gao, who was frowning, went directly to the study in the inner courtyard without saying a word.

Holding the lamp, Liu Sheng buried his head in Sima Xuan's footsteps, thinking that his wife still has weight with his master, and he may use his wife's excuses to remind him when his master commits a crime in the future, hehehehe...

In that room, Cao Hui didn't know how long she had been sitting in the study, but when the man in the long robe suddenly pushed the door in, she suddenly felt a faint candlelight appear in the loneliness in her heart.

"It's late at night, let's go back and rest." Sima Xuan let go of all guards, stood there gently and waved to Cao Hui.

Cao Hui recovered from his chaotic thoughts and slowly raised his head to look at Sima Xuan. The expression on his face gradually changed from doubt to a kind of relief, and then faint worry and puzzlement appeared again.

At a certain moment, Cao Hui actually felt that although Sima Yuanchu was standing in front of him, she was actually very, very far away from him, so far away.

"I came here on purpose this time. I didn't come here to quarrel and get angry with you, and I didn't come here to accuse you with a shy face." Cao Hui held his father's belongings in both hands and tried his best to restrain his out-of-control emotions. I just wanted to ask you, when do you have free time, let's find a quiet place to sit down and chat, since it's already late, then I won't bother you—"

After giving a slight nod to Sima Xuan, Cao Hui leaned over to stand up, but found that his legs had become numb and lost consciousness at some point, and he couldn't even stand up.

"What's the matter?" Sima Xuan noticed something strange, and walked to Cao Hui in three steps at a time, and unknowingly squeezed out the wrinkle between his eyebrows: "Is there something uncomfortable? ——It's okay, it's okay, I'm telling Liu Sheng to invite Lang..."

Before the word "Langzhong" was finished, Sima Xuan turned around and was about to call Liu Sheng, but Cao Hui grabbed his wrist. The latter shook his head lightly and explained: "I'm fine, I just sat for too long. Legs are numb."

"Leg, leg is numb." Sima Xuan first glanced at the hand that was grasping his wrist, then slowly turned back, and whispered tentatively: "I, you...or you , how about I rub it for you?"

After all, as if he was afraid of being rejected, Sima Xuan hurriedly added: "If the leg is numb, rub it and it will be cured. Really, every time I, no, otherwise... just ask Yuyan to come in?"

The moment the man lowered his eyes, Cao Hui saw the tenderness in those dark eyes that had been deliberately hidden.

The softest part of my heart suddenly seemed to be rolled around with a knife, and the pain was bloody.

"I need to trouble Yuyan," finally, Cao Hui heard himself say in a soft voice, "Aren't you here..."

The expression on Sima Xuan's face was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't understand Cao Hui's meaning. After a pause, the man leaned down slightly, tilted his ears again, and asked, "What did you just say? I didn't hear clearly." .”

Cao Hui was really not sure if Sima Xuan really didn't hear what he said clearly, so he prepared to say it again with full of shyness, but when he raised his eyes, he saw this man standing in front of him, smiling with crooked eyebrows.

Seeing Cao Hui's dazed look, Sima Xuan moved a stool and sat beside him, bent down and picked up Cao Hui's legs and put them on his own. Sima Yuanchu was the best at loosening people's muscles and bones, activating blood vessels and so on.

Many years later, although Cao Hui rarely recalled the bright smile of this scene, the feeling at this moment was unforgettable for her.

There was an indescribable atmosphere flowing around, and Cao Hui heard his heartbeat suddenly quicken. Suddenly, there were hundreds of thousands of words in the book, and there was not a single word that could be used to describe the feeling at this time.

In the silence, it fits the drama that I don't know where I heard - "This is definitely not the heartbeat that sees the color and forgets the profit, but it is the long-term love that will never leave."

Suddenly, Cao Hui pulled her leg and foot out of Sima Xuan's grasp in a panic, ignoring the numbness and pain left on her foot, holding the dilapidated blood-stained journal, almost staggering Then, snatch the door and leave.

Cao Hui knew very well that he was a woman, and Sima Yuanchu was also a woman under that skin, so, so... Alas!What the hell are you thinking about! !

Sima Xuan blinked puzzled at Cao Hui's sudden rush to leave, and quickly got up and chased him out.

"You, you..." The person who has always raised a knife and dropped a knife followed behind Cao Hui, "you" for a long time, and then observed the words and expressions for a long time, and finally "you" said a word after returning to the Thousand-Character Pavilion Lai: "Did the blood in your legs go through?"

"It's clear, thank you, Junhou!"

Sima Xuan stood on the stone steps outside the corridor, unable to react for a while——Cao Hui seemed not to want to say a word to himself, so he just left such a perfunctory response, and hurried into the room. time.

The next day, the weather was fine, the sun was shining brightly, the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant, but it was no surprise that Cao Hui, who slept last night, did not get up early to chant scriptures and worship Buddha.

Amitabha, the Buddha is magnanimous, and he would not blame Huier, the little sleeper. Sima Xuan was sitting by the flower stand in the yard basking in the sun, holding a slender green grass blade between his slender fingers, teasing his feet leisurely Next to this half-sized kitten.

"Master, master," Liu Sheng trotted in panting, and said in a low voice, "The front yard has been tidied up, and the master's mansion has probably heard the news, so someone should come over by now—husband ...uh, ma'am... ma'am she hasn't..."

"No, don't disturb her to sleep," Sima Xuan bent down and hugged the half-grown cat cub onto his lap. A few clear paw prints of plum blossoms were immediately stamped on the black brocade robe, and Sima Xuan pulled it up. Sleeves, rubbed the cat's paws on the sleeves carelessly, then raised his hand and stuffed the little guy to Liu Sheng: "Take it back, let Qing'er keep it for fun."

"A gift, what about the little one's?" Liu Sheng casually took the kitten he picked up from the back garden, but the weight of the half-grown kitten almost flicked his wrist, "—Oops My God, master, what did you feed it, it is so fat!"

"Let's go, just stop the people from the main mansion in the front yard, and don't let them enter the inner yard—" Sima Xuan stood up, patted the paw prints on his body stepped on by the kitten, and stepped towards Walking to the front yard, "I remember that Princess Yongjia's Wuwen Garden has a sub-wolf dog. After returning to Beijing, go and ask her for a puppy to give to Huan'er. Huan'er has been thinking about that sub-wolf dog for a long time. "

Liu Sheng: "Young Master, I have also missed you for a long time."

Sima Xuan: "..."

……

Although Sima Xuan is a high-ranking Marquis, she lives in Jingling County, but she still has the official position of the right servant of the Ministry of Punishment. Chang'an went.

On the evening before leaving, Sima Xuan and Cao Hui came to the Fushou Hall of the grandmother, the old lady, to say goodbye.

"I see those little troublemakers out there, even at the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, they disdain them." The old matriarch pulled Cao Hui to sit next to him, as close as usual: "I just want to implicate you and get involved in these dirty things with him." Here we come."

Cao Hui lowered his eyes, and didn't know what to say other than shaking his head—the grandmother, the old lady, always said that Sima Xuan owed her Cao Yuanrong, and Sima Xuan himself, although he didn't say anything, but what this person did Without exception, what he did was not an expression of apology to her-but if you ask yourself, except for the death of his brother Cao Zheng, Sima Xuan has never felt sorry for himself from the beginning to the end, not a single bit.

So where do these apologies that turn over and over like wheels come from?

"After this time, I don't know when I will be able to have fun at my grandmother's knees again in the future." Seeing Mama Ye nodding towards her, Sima Xuan came over to help the old lady go to the side hall where she had dinner. The grandmother, who had already become hunched, felt her eyes swell: "Tomorrow, my second uncle will bring many relatives to bid farewell to my grandson. This time, my grandson specially came here with Yuan Rong to accompany my grandmother... "

The old lady, who was already a bit reluctant to leave, couldn't help being moved when she heard these words. She raised her head and glanced at the bastard next to her in surprise——Yuanchu was as virtuous as his old man. A sap who can't shake a fart, but why is he suddenly so talkative now?

... Come to think of it, maybe behind the disappearance of those indifference and coldness is the return of Yuanrong, which warmed up the cold stone at the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty?

The old matriarch just felt a little bit of such relief in his heart, when he heard Sima Xuan add indiscriminately after being beaten: "—but please don't just pull Yuanrong to talk about yourself, but also take care of your grandson. I don’t know what my grandmother said to Yuanrong, every time she goes back she has to get angry with her grandson.”

"You, your enemy from the previous life, little hozen, you are talking nonsense, it's strange to see that I don't smoke you..." In the end, the old lady couldn't get red eyes because of the sadness of parting, but she was in good health and moved freely to chase Sima. Xuan jumped up and down in the room, dodging and beating.

It was only when the two children went back by themselves, and in the dead of night, that the old matriarch had been leaning on the warm couch alone for a long time, did she realize that her grandson who was so powerful at such a young age was actually so extraordinary. The exquisite mind of ordinary people.

Blessed by the ancestors, they actually let out a reckless general from the Sima family, such a meticulous person with a plan and a plan in the early Yuan Dynasty!

The author has something to say:

Cao Hui, she...doesn't know what's on her mind

I just learned to play mahjong, and I was addicted to mahjong for a while. After paying back the principal, I won five yuan from my mother. I feel so good
