The nine princesses of the East Palace

He answered rather simply, but I still have a lot to ask.I said, "Don't you always say that I'm savage and not pretty?"

He said: "Anyway, you always like to run around. If you are more savage, I don't have to worry about others daring to bully you. In addition, beautiful women will attract bees and butterflies. I feel very safe when you look like this."

I almost vomited blood from his anger, and said sullenly: "Then you are wrong, there are many people who like me, you think I am not good-looking, it is because of your bad eyesight."

"Isn't my eyesight bad? Otherwise, why would I fall in love with you?"

I pretended I didn't hear the first half of his sentence, and asked: "Then when did you fall in love with me and decide to marry me?" Anyway, he said that I was not reserved or gentle, so let me ask it out with the cheek.

He frowned, as if he was thinking about this question very seriously. I waited for a long time before I heard him say: "I forgot when I saw you. It's been a long time, probably in the last life. I decided to marry you, yes When I mustered up the courage to come to Xizhou to meet you."

What he said made me confused, why did he come to Xizhou to see me, shouldn't he come to Danchi?I didn't ask further, but continued: "I am from Xizhou, you are from the Central Plains, and our homes are far apart. If you are allowed to stay in Xizhou, you will definitely miss your family. If you are not called Staying in Xizhou, but I will follow you to the Central Plains. I will also miss my relatives. Also, I don’t know the Chinese characters, nor can I understand your Central Plains dialect, let alone many things about your Central Plains. "

"I've said so much, it's all outside the body, you just need to tell me if you want to marry me." He interrupted me.

My saliva was almost dry, but he pushed back with a single sentence. I just stared at him, my face became hot, and I stammered, "...uh..."

"Say it!" Seeing me hesitating, he urged, "Are you willing?"

He stared at me, as if I couldn't avoid it, but I didn't know how to answer it.I just flashed through the scenes since I met him in my mind.

I waited for him on the sand dunes of Lirenpo for three days. He led me to escape the chasing of Shobo cavalry, and rescued me when I fell off my horse. Give me his peace talisman, he will kill the white-eyed wolf king for me...

It turns out that we have been through so many things together.I don't hate him, but do I want to marry him so soon?When I saw the glowing fireflies all over the sky, I broke my heart and said to him: "If you catch a hundred fireflies for me, I will promise you."

As soon as he heard it, he stood up immediately, and I stared at him blankly. He jumped up from the ground and hit the flying firefly with a somersault. I looked at him expectantly and worriedly, thinking, Will he not fall into the river like this?

My worries were superfluous. He raised his hand and picked up a few fireflies and put them in his palm. He landed on the ground, holding those glowing fireflies like elves, and walked towards me. I was so excited Looking at the things in his hand carefully, he held the fireflies in front of me, bent slightly, and put the fireflies on my hands, "You wait and see I catch them all."

As he spoke, he jumped up again, and started to catch fireflies in mid-air. He did not forget to take off his robe, and gathered the flashing stars into his robe. His movements seemed to be dancing, I excitedly followed his movements and began to direct, "There are many on the left." "There are also on the right." "There are more by the river..."

All around the banks were our shouts and laughter.

He went to the left for a while, and then to the right for a while, catching all the nearby fireflies and sending them all to my arms.

So many fireflies gathered together, brighter than the moon in the sky, illuminating my face.

"Are there a hundred?" Gu Xiaowu leaned closer and asked, "Quickly count them." He said.

We started to count, but there was always a faint cool fragrance on his body, which kept rushing into my nose. This is a kind of fragrance that I have never smelled before. He seems to be too close, the autumn wind blows, he My hair also brushed against my face, itching, I couldn’t help shaking my hand to count the fireflies, I shook the robe containing the fireflies to the opening, and many fireflies flew out, they were shining like The stars that fell into the mortal world illuminated the faces of Gu Xiaowu and me, and I saw his dark jade-like eyes looking at me. His eyes were beautiful, and my shadow was reflected in them. My hands and feet are a little weak.

"Oh, ran away, all ran away." I looked away unnaturally, and shouted with some pity.

He also came back to his senses, looked at the fireflies all over the sky, but said in his mouth: "I told you not to count seriously."

I said, "How can you blame me for this? You didn't like it."

We bickered and quarreled like two children, he lowered his head to block my light, I gasped, he had already lowered his head and kissed me, when I was at a loss as to what to do , he let go, and turned his face to the side, facing the light, I saw a suspicious blushing on his face, but it disappeared soon.

But the heat on my face didn't fade away after a long time.

After the fireflies flew away, we sat down again.A song suddenly sounded by the riverside. It must have been sung by a certain Danchi warrior outside the tent of his beloved girl. He was expressing his love to her.The singing is melodious, just like fairy music.

Gu Xiaowu also seemed to be fascinated by it, he turned his head to look at me and said, "Why don't you sing a song and listen to it."

I said: "Why don't you sing, you want me to sing?" He doesn't sing, how can I take his belt?

"I can't sing," he said.

"There is no one who can't sing." I said, "Just sing what your mother taught you when you were young."

He suppressed his smile and said slowly: "I don't have a mother, I don't even know what she looks like."

I looked at him, and suddenly felt that he was so lonely and pitiful. I knew a big brother. He had no mother since he was a child, and no one took care of him when he was sick, so that big brother never laughed.Has Gu Xiaowu's mother passed away a long time ago?He looked a little sad.

I said, "Then I'll sing and you listen."

He looked at me and smiled, as if waiting for me to sing.

I sang: "A fox, it is sitting on the sand dunes, sitting on the sand dunes, looking at the moon. Hey, it turns out that it is not looking at the moon, but waiting for the girl who has returned from the herd. A fox, it is sitting On the sand dunes, sitting on the sand dunes, basking in the sun, hey, it turns out that it is not basking in the sun, but waiting for a girl passing by on a horse."

Before I finished singing, Gu Xiaowu spoke up, and he said, "It's too ugly, try another song."

I said, "But this is the only song I know."

He glanced at me again, but the light at night was a bit dim, I couldn't see his expression clearly, I just felt that his eyes were glowing, very bright.
