Chapter 171 Chapter 15 Reunion Again

A corner of the tent was raised, and besides the dazzling sunlight and the smell of roasted bacon pouring in, Jingjing turned over with a frown, and opened her eyes in a daze, obviously not fully awake yet.There was a hint of refreshing sweetness in the morning breeze, which immediately dispelled the strong medicinal smell in the tent. Chu Qiao didn't look up, she rested her forehead with one hand, and held a black agate chess piece between the index finger and middle finger of the other hand, knocking on the white jade chessboard continuously, making crisp, frequent and monotonous sounds, which were a bit boring.But she didn't seem to realize that the longitude and latitude on the chessboard were scattered all over the board, but she hesitated and couldn't make a move for a long time.

"Miss, everyone is ready." Duoji stood at the door and said in a deep voice. Chu Qiao's brows frowned slightly, and Duoji's voice quietly echoed in the air, but she didn't respond for a long time.Just when Duoji thought she didn't hear and wanted to say it again, she suddenly pushed the chessboard away, turned her head and said in a deep voice: "Tell everyone, starting today, we will be on the road day and night, get ready Bar." Chu Qiao and the others left Xuefu City yesterday, and now they are on their way to Tangjing. Half a month ago, Shen Jun, the silent only son of Bian Tang Daru, paid a sudden visit and asked to see Chu Hui.

Chu Lin is Duoji's Donglu name, which he chose by himself. He took Chu Qiao's surname and named him Hui of Huishan. Shen Jun's coming to see Duoji was not a big deal, after all, Duoji's reputation for erudition had spread far and wide during the past year in Xuefu City, but what happened afterwards made Chu Qiao vigilant. According to Duoji, when Shen Jun saw the way of helping the world that he was transcribing recently, he paid so much attention to it that he even wrote to his father overnight, while Shen Mobai, who was working in Meishan far away, returned to Xuefu City on the third day and sent the Duoji stayed in the mansion for three days in a row, and in his tone, there was a faint intention to recruit him.

All of this was nothing in the first place, and it is not an anecdote that an old man who loves talent likes a talented junior and wants to support him a little bit.However, after half a month, Mo Mobai introduced someone to Duoji, and Chu Qiao finally realized the crisis. Young, graceful, and mysterious, even a scholar like Mo Mobai is respectful and polite to her. Coupled with the appearance and conversation that Dorji described for her, she had to vaguely think of a person she had only met once.Recalling some of the rumors she heard recently, Chu Qiao felt more and more nervous. Three days later, she decided to go north, and she had to meet Li Ce to relieve her worries.

The team arrived at Xiuling on the second day. Along the way, there were high streams, lush vegetation, and vast green pines. If it wasn't for the uncomfortable mood, it would be a good time to rest and swim along the way. However, a heavy rain in the evening of the third day blocked Chu Qiao and the others' itinerary. The mountain road was difficult to walk, and the mud was sunken. On the afternoon of the fourth day, I finally reached the Qingheng River, only to find that after the heavy rain, the flood had broken the only bridge, and one seemed to be crossing the river. The team was repairing it, but there were only three There are more than ten people, and the progress is slow.

Now there are only two roads in front of me, or turn around and take the Huai Song Road, which will at least delay more than ten days.Or, wait for the bridge to be repaired before crossing the river. Chu Qiao added ten silver plants to each of the hired grooms and guards, and these honest people immediately happily joined the team building the bridge ahead. After a while, Duoji walked to the carriage and said, "Miss, the other party sent someone to thank us." Seeing that the other party didn't intend to come to speak in person, Chu Qiao was also happy, she nodded lightly and said: "Go back, just say that everyone is going on the same road, and we have to cross the river, so there is no need to thank you."

The sky quickly darkened, the sky was rumbling with thunder, and the weather was extremely hot. Chu Qiao raised the curtain of the car window slightly, only to see that the west was covered with dark clouds, and there would be another heavy rain soon. Mei Xiang brought a few servants to cook the meat porridge, Chu Qiao saw that the team on the other side of the ferry was quiet, all the servants were repairing the bridge, only a simple green cloth carriage parked quietly on a pine tree under.Under the red light of the evening, the carriage seemed to be dyed a layer of blush, the breeze passed by, the curtains were slightly turned, and a corner of a bright white embroidered gold boot was exposed, calm and indifferent, like a nobleman.

Mei Xiang called her guards and greeted everyone to eat porridge.Seeing Chu Qiao, she ordered her to send the extra porridge to those people opposite.I didn't want Mei Xiang to come back with a large oiled paper bag in her hand. After opening, it was full of high-quality pastries and shortbread, as well as two large pieces of dried beef. "He is really a person who knows how to repay his kindness." Mei Xiang picked up a piece of pastry with a smile, put it up to her nose and sniffed it, and said, "It seems to be the mille-feuille cake from Baishuiguan Yufuji. Miss, if you smell it, does it look like the one from Baishui in our shop?"

Chu Qiao frowned and took it, looked at it for a while, and said quietly: "It's not the same, we bought mid-range pastries, not so crispy. Such pastries cannot withstand long-distance transportation, and there is no way to make them." Business, presumably the other party is just buying food on the road." Mei Xiang was slightly speechless when she heard this. Although she had no worries about food and clothing these years, she came from a poor background after all. She murmured: "It's really rich and powerful to give away such expensive dim sum." Jingjing has been suffering from a minor illness for the past few days, and she always fell asleep sickly. She would smell the fragrance and open her eyes, but she didn't see what it was, so she called to Mei Xiang: "Sister Mei, I want to eat."

"Prevention is essential. The background of this group of people is unknown, so be careful. Mei Xiang, find a place to throw these things away, don't eat them." Mei Xiang was slightly taken aback, but immediately nodded and said: "Miss is right." There was thunder for a while, and the strong wind howled for a long time, but it disappeared again at nightfall.When it was completely dark, the wooden bridge was finally built. The group seemed to be in a hurry, and one of them came over and greeted Duoji before leaving first. Chu Qiao didn't want to waste any more time, and after that group of people crossed the river, they also led their troops across the river.

However, when they got to the ferry, they saw that the porcelain bowl that Mei Xiang had sent over to hold the meat porridge was placed in a square of pole grass.A few voles were squatting by the basin, feasting on them. Chu Qiao put down the curtain of the car window, quietly leaned on the soft cushion, her eyebrows slowly wrinkled. At midnight, I finally got out of the mountainous area and came to a flat grassland. The guide said that this place is Youyouyuan. After leaving here, it is Xizhao Mountain. After crossing this mountain, you will find Qiufeng City, the largest city in the southwest.Transiting from Qiufeng City, to the east is Tangjing, to the north is Baishuiguan, after passing Baishuiguan, it is the land of Daxia. They have been trekking in the mountains and fields for a few days, and seeing the plains now, everyone's hearts are suddenly enlightened. This has always been the case on the plain. Looking at a tree from a distance, it looks not far away, but if you really want to walk across it, you have to run for a whole day. After walking on Youyouyuan for two full days, I finally arrived at the so-called Xizhao Mountain. The name of this mountain is very beautiful, and the scenery is also excellent.I saw several continuous mountain peaks stand up against each other, with green pines and cypresses, interspersed with flowers, and a white waterfall pouring down from the top of the mountain, forming a white line, with rising water mist, like a fairyland. Because it is adjacent to Autumn Wind City, the mountain roads here are extremely open, and two carriages can be paralleled without being too crowded. As the sun sets, the setting sun is fiery red, sprinkled with gorgeous colors, the pine and cypress rainforest is flushed, the flowers are blooming like a brocade, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and the superb scenery is so beautiful that it really deserves the word sunset. That night, Chu Qiao ordered to camp in a valley.The servants heard a collective cheer, and they had been on the road without sleep for several days, which really made everyone look exhausted. However, before falling asleep, the howling of wild wolves came from far and near. Jingjing's pale face was terrified, she huddled in the tent, leaned against Mei Xiang's arms and closed her eyes tightly, but she couldn't fall asleep. Chu Qiao couldn't help being a little worried. The generation of hungry wolves in the Southwest had heard about them for a long time. Now they are few in number, and most of them are hired ordinary guards and coachmen. There are also women and children in the team. Once they encounter wolves, the consequences will be disastrous.She called Duoji and Pingan, gave a few instructions, and told everyone to be prepared, and then she relaxed a little. However, in the second half of the night, the cries of wolves became louder, and there were occasional shouts of men. Chu Qiao went out, put on her windbreaker, ordered Ping An to take a few people to guard the camp, and took Duoji and more than ten guards to the source of the sound. It was just turning a slope, and a stench of blood came to the face.Everyone looked carefully, and saw about a hundred wild wolves attacking a group of men and horses in a low-lying valley. At first glance, it is not a good match.The wolves are fierce and white-toothed, relying on their packs, they are not afraid at all. Blood splattered, the stench tangled in the nostrils, and the screams were endless, sending chills down the spine. "Miss?" Duoji frowned, and said in a deep voice: "There are a lot of wolves, if this group loses, we will be alone." Chu Qiao nodded and said, "Everyone get ready." A group of guard coachmen are also people from the rivers and lakes who have been traveling all year round. Although they lost to the regular army, they are extremely courageous.Pulling out the bow and arrow, and putting on a posture, Duoji looked cold, and said in a deep voice: "Let go!" Rows of rockets burning with pine oil shot out in unison. In an instant, the wolves were attacked from behind, and more than a dozen wild wolves screamed and fell to the ground. The wolves were furious, turned around and rushed towards them, their speed was astonishing as lightning, within a few ups and downs they were already in front of them. With quick hands and quick eyes, Duoji picked up a bucket of tung oil, splashed it in front of him, and threw the torch, and a wall of fire suddenly ignited in front of the mountain, with the flames as high as three feet.Several hungry wolves couldn't stop their dashing momentum, bumped their heads into the fire, and immediately let out ear-piercing screams. The wolves were afraid of the fire, and immediately fell into chaos. When the group saw someone helping them, their momentum became stronger. The few leaders rushed forward with a loud shout, slashing with knives, and pursued the victory. Those hungry wolves were really fierce, they fought fiercely for more than an hour before retreating hastily.Before leaving, there were a few roars of protest, with a hint of revenge. There are wolf corpses everywhere, and there is a stench all over the place. A person in the valley shouted loudly: "Which friend above is helping, my master thank you for your kindness!" Duoji was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, and looked with his head, but he couldn't see clearly because of the trees blocking it and the night was as dark as ink. He just shouted: "But Brother Cao? We met by the Qingheng River." The other party was silent for a moment, then suddenly laughed loudly and said, "So it's Brother Ji, I'm inconvenient now, I'll come later to thank Brother Ji for his kindness." Duoji hurriedly said: "Brother Cao, you don't need to be polite. I don't know if you are injured? Is there any medicine for sores?" "Small injury, nothing to worry about, little brother, worry about it." Chu Qiao heard a trace of vigilance in the other party's tone, she gently pulled Radoji's sleeve, and motioned towards her camp. Duoji understood, and hurriedly said: "Then the younger brother will go first, Brother Cao take care." When he returned to the camp, Ping An was jumping up and down anxiously, seeing Chu Qiao hurried up and asked, "Sister, are you injured?" "It's okay." Chu Qiao shook her head, and said to Duoji and the others: "Tonight, everyone, sleep more carefully, keep the torches burning all night, and prepare rockets and sulfur tung oil. The wolves must avenge their flaws, be careful when they come to seek revenge. " Everyone nodded, Chu Qiao returned to the tent, and saw that Jingjing had already fallen asleep. Mei Xiang took off the cloak for her, and said softly: "Just let Duoji go, why do you want to go in person?" Chu Qiao shook her head, her brows were furrowed, and she said softly, "I've been restless these days, and I don't know if something will happen." "Miss is worried about His Majesty Tang Huang, don't worry, Tang Huang is such a shrewd person, how can Xiaoxiao's generation easily succeed." Chu Qiao sighed softly, holding a cup of ginseng tea that Mei Xiang handed over with both hands, the steam was wafting up, but it couldn't warm her cold hands no matter what. "I hope so." For some reason, she suddenly thought of the team of people down the valley just now, and she felt a little worried for some reason.Involuntarily said: "Mei Xiang, do you still have the golden sore medicine you bought from Xinglintang last time?" Mei Xiang was taken aback for a moment, and asked anxiously: "Who is injured? Miss, are you injured?" "No," Chu Qiao quickly shook her head and said, "No one was injured." She was lying on the blanket in frustration, and Mei Xiang looked up and down at her with lingering fear, as if suspecting that she was lying to herself. What's wrong? Chu Qiao frowned slightly. In the early morning of the next day, Chu Qiao and the others had just walked a short distance when they saw a group of people in front of them quietly stopping there, obviously the group from last night. A middle-aged man in his thirties came over, said a few words to Duoji, and after being polite, he walked to Chu Qiao's carriage and saluted: "My master thank you for your kindness. It's rude and abrupt, but one should bear in mind the favors received from others, so I boldly asked Miss's name, and please forgive me." Chu Qiao frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Seeing the road is rough, I should have helped, so there is no need to be polite." The man was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, and then said again: "I don't know Miss Fang's name yet." "You are so strange. Your master only sent you here. Obviously, he didn't want to reveal his identity. Why did you force me to ask about my background? It's normal for us to meet each other by chance and be on guard against each other. Since we don't trust each other and have important things to do Now that you are here, why don't you hurry on your way and talk more here, don't you feel bored?" The man was dumbfounded, he didn't expect to be robbed by Chu Qiao in such a way, and he backed away in a daze. After a while, the team in front hurried away. Jingjing snapped her tongue and said, "My sister is really amazing!" Chu Qiao sighed and leaned on the cushion. What's great, it's just that she doesn't want to waste time with them. The more she drags on, the more anxious she feels, and the group of people opposite her also gives her a sense of depressing crisis. She clearly feels that the other party is by no means an ordinary person. At this moment, one thing more is worse than one thing less, and it is better to be cautious. However, after walking for less than half a day, another unexpected incident stopped their footsteps. At this time, even the dull as Ping An felt something was wrong. On a slightly narrow mountain road, a few big trees and a pile of silt and rocks lay across the road, as tall as half a person, blocking the road ahead.Everything is obvious, and it is very likely that the landslide and mudslide caused by the heavy rain a few days ago, however, after many coincidences, no one is willing to believe this simple reason. The team stood in front, staring at Chu Qiao and the others who had arrived late, without concealing the hostility in their eyes. Duoji, Ping'an and the others also frowned suspiciously, their hands naturally hung to one side, but their fingertips were slowly rubbing the hilt of the sword. The sky is blue and the clouds are white, the birds are chirping, and the sun is shining warmly below. In such a clear weather, the atmosphere is weird and tense. No one is going to clean up the rocks and mud on the road. Instead, they stare at each other. step. "What a coincidence." The man surnamed Cao sneered and said slowly. Ping An raised his eyebrows, but was pulled back by Duoji.The young man frowned slightly, and said with a faint smile: "It's really a coincidence. In the past few days, I have shared weal and woe with Brother Cao many times. Even I, who don't believe in destiny, have to say that God's will is unpredictable." "In my opinion, it's not God's will. I'm afraid some people are playing tricks on purpose." Pingan suddenly said angrily, "Who are you talking about?" Brother Cao shouted coldly: "Who are you? Draw the road!" "I don't think you are a good person!" Pingan shouted angrily, and drew out the knife with a swipe, the cold light flickered, he took a step forward, and was about to strike. When the other party saw it, he immediately drew out his sword. At this moment, a silver light suddenly lit up and hit Ping'an's sword hilt with a ding.The sword fell to the ground with a bang, and a clear female voice said lightly, "Peace be safe, don't be reckless." As if a pool of cold water suddenly poured into boiling hot water, the atmosphere calmed down instantly. The audience was silent, and even human breathing could be heard clearly. The breeze rustled, sweeping across the eyebrows and eyes of everyone, the green pines swayed in the distance, the green waves were vast, and the birds circled and danced in mid-air, chirping. "puff." A small sound came suddenly, it seemed to be the rustling of boots stepping on stones, and the wind blew up the green cloth curtains. The man surnamed Cao and others suddenly shouted in surprise: "Master?" The man walked straight towards Chu Qiao's carriage without saying a word. Duoji raised his eyebrows, and immediately shouted: "Stop!" The man ignored him, Duoji held the hilt of the sword, raised his eyebrows, and was about to draw his sword immediately. However, just when the sword was half drawn, there was a blunt sound. The man was so fast that he unloaded Duoji's sword in a blink of an eye, and threw it on the ground. Duoji's face turned red, and he was about to rush forward with an angry snort, but the man was unafraid, walked quickly to Chu Qiao's carriage, and stretched out his hand to lift the curtain of her carriage. With a sound of "Huh", fresh wind blew in immediately, and the noon sun was shining brightly, Chu Qiao held a small crossbow arrow in her hand, and the end of the arrow was facing the car door, but she froze the moment the sun pierced her pupils. Duoji rushed forward from behind, his five fingers turned into claws, and grabbed the man's neck.With the skills he has learned from Chu Qiao for more than three years, at this moment, he can definitely kill the enemy. However, that person did not dodge or evade. He was wearing a moon-white gown with cloud patterns, with sword-like eyebrows and star-eyed eyes. The deep pool, the cold lake is quiet. "Whoosh!" The crossbow left the string, passed through the man's ear, and shot out tightly against Duoji's arm. It was as fast as the peak, with a fierce murderous aura, and instantly froze everyone's movements. "Duoji, step back." Chu Qiao said quietly, she was not angry, but she had an undeniable deterrent force. Duoji raised his eyebrows and called, "Miss?" Chu Qiao's eyes twitched slightly, she didn't speak, she just turned her head and looked at him lightly. Dorje suddenly regained his sanity, and slowly backed away, but his eyes were still unconvinced and looked at the man in front of the carriage. The wind is intoxicating, and the good weather makes people flustered. A row of bright-colored orioles landed on the branches not far away, singing in a melodious voice.The trees are stretched out, like newly painted black eyebrows, and the dense forest on the side is lush and lush, with various lovely flowers blooming in the middle, so beautiful and magnificent, just like in the painting. Where the wind passed by, the corners of the man's clothes were gently blown up. There was no incense like the usual rich and noble young man's incense, but a light and unique scent of Zhilan, with a clear and handsome temperament, like a handful of clear snow. "ah!" Jingjing, who was sitting behind Chu Qiao, suddenly stretched out her hand, pointed at the man's waist and shouted, "His jade pendant is the same as sister's!" White and smooth, round and clear, the man stood upright by the wind, a jade pendant hung on his waist, shining with faint brilliance. Chu Qiao's expression gradually eased, and when everyone was silent, she suddenly put her hand on the man's shoulder, jumped off the carriage, and told Ping'an Dorji and the others with a gentle smile: "Don't I was stunned, and quickly cleared the road ahead." "Ah?" Ping An's eyes widened, he looked at Chu Qiao, then at the man, and finally asked stupidly, "Sister, do you know each other?" "Yep." Chu Qiao nodded with a relaxed expression, and seemed to be a little bit happy. Ping An really wanted to ask who this person was, but before he could speak, he saw the man's eyes drifting over faintly. He was not very strict, but he was as indifferent as ice and snow. He seemed very unwilling to hear this idiot. Brainy lad chatters in general. When Brother Cao and the others saw them, they immediately stepped back with their heads down, took out tools and began to clear the way. Chu Qiao turned to the man and said, "Follow me." After all, go back. "Miss!" Duoji hurried forward, stopped Chu Qiao, and said in a deep voice, "What are you doing?" Chu Qiao said: "Duoji, don't worry, this is my friend." Duoji looked at the man suspiciously, but saw that the man frowned slightly, and glanced at him lightly, his eyes were as cold as a frozen mirror lake. That is by no means ordinary indifference and coldness, but the innocence in the bones that can only be cultivated through experience in the world and being in a high position.Duoji suddenly felt as if a basin of cold water was being poured from the top of his head, and his back couldn't help but feel a chill. In a trance, Chu Qiao and that person had already walked far away. The sky was beautiful that day, as clear as a lake and clear water, and the sun was as golden as gold. The two walked into a secluded small col in a short time, and a line of waterfalls flew down from the top of the mountain. Falling into the cold pool, large splashes of water are splashed, and the grains are clear, against the bright sunlight, colorful and dazzling. Chu Qiao turned her head and looked at the man in front of her. She hadn't seen him for more than a year, and he didn't seem to have changed much. She still looked like this. She opened her mouth to say something, but she didn't know what to say Speaking of He, it finally turned into a slight smile, overflowing the corners of his lips, and he didn't know whether he was laughing at himself or others. "What are you laughing at?" Zhuge Yue still looked like that, his brows were slightly frowned, as if he was very impatient like she was standing here. "It's nothing." Chu Qiao shook her head, still said with a smile: "It seems that every time I see you, the way is very strange." Zhuge Yue turned his head away, looking away, still with the familiar awkwardness. "What are you doing here?" Zhuge Yue gave her an extremely accurate but vague answer: "Do things." "Oh." Chu Qiao nodded and said, "Are you going back now?" "Yep." Then, the two stood where they were, and neither of them spoke. In the blink of an eye, it has been almost two years. In the past two years, he has been calling the shots in the court, changing hands, and has become one of the most powerful people on the mainland.Chu Qiao was in a remote place, and when she heard about him occasionally, she would feel a strange sense of trance.Sometimes she even wondered if the man she knew was the same as those men who were rumored to be decisive and decisive? She also heard some rumors from Qinghai one after another. It is rumored that although it is nominally affiliated with Daxia, officials are selected by themselves, not selected from the clan, but selected through scientific examinations, and even commoners have the opportunity to refer to them.Rumor has it that a new law has been enacted there to encourage farming, build water conservancy, and protect industry and commerce. Among the inland merchants, some courageous ones have already gone to Qinghai to do business.Rumor has it that slavery has been abolished there, and rich clans can buy slaves, but as long as the slaves are willing to pay to redeem themselves, they can get out of slavery.Moreover, even domestic slaves cannot be killed at will, otherwise they will be severely punished by the law.It is rumored that it is not as desolate and ruined as in the legend, but has a vast area, another universe, and a prosperous population. Now, there are many rich and prosperous towns... There are also rumors that the king of Qinghai is now notorious and is known as the robber Sima.Every year in the court, they rob money and food, compete for various materials under various names, and transport them to Qinghai continuously.Every month, Qinghai would report catastrophes, droughts, floods and glaciers. The people there had nothing to cover their bodies and food, and strongly demanded that the court provide money and food to rescue the refugees. However, as soon as those materials come out, they will flow into the market in exchange for a large amount of real gold and silver, and then blatantly transport them to Qinghai headquarters.Now that most of Yanbei's troops are restrained by Qinghai, Daxia dare not turn against him at all, so he can only let him do evil. It is rumored that this man is called Junfu by the people of Qinghai, a robber by the people of Simon, and a vampire by the officials of Daxia. Even his good friend and good ally, the Seventh Prince Zhao Che, persuaded him very tactfully: almost That's enough, if you eat meat, you have to let them have a mouthful of soup. It is rumored that even though Simon's people hate him to the bone, the brave ones are now quietly preparing to move. Cuiwei Pass is overcrowded every day, full of people who want to sneak in with their families. The elders of Daxia angrily reprimanded him for intentionally indulging the Cuiwei guards to slack off their duties and let the people in the interior of Simon flow into Qinghai. But he spread his hands innocently, the Yanbei army is too powerful, we have no spare troops, if we want to effectively limit these incidents, we urgently need the Ministry of Households to allocate 100,000 gold plants to Qinghai immediately to expand Qinghai's military equipment... There were so many rumors, but when Chu Qiao saw him now, those rumors suddenly disappeared from her mind like a cloud of smoke. He is still him, not some Qinghai King Da Sima, not the stunningly talented Qinghai Junfu, not the cunning and shameless Daxia vampire, he is still the indifferent and aloof man with a little bit of awkwardness and self-willedness, the one who is with She has experienced life and death many times, and Master Zhuge who rescued her from danger several times. A few traces of emotion suddenly rose in her heart, and gradually suppressed the excitement and joy of meeting him for the first time. She looked at him, although he was still handsome and indifferent like a piece of ice, but there was a trace of lines in the corners of his eyes. Go, the eyes are also a little tired. She quietly pursed the corners of her lips, and said softly, "I haven't seen you for more than a year, and you're getting old." Zhuge Yue was taken aback suddenly when he heard the words, the frost in his eyes disappeared, and he looked down at her, only to see that her face was still the same, only a little thinner. He is only twenty-six years old this year, no matter what, he can't be called this old name.However, the hard work of these years, the game conquest in those rough years, the bloody killings splashed in the corners of his eyebrows and eyes, all followed this old word, flowing through his vicissitudes of life like a tidal wave. Behind all kinds of scenery, there are sleepless lights all night, the solitary shadow and candles cut by the cold moon in the west window, the insomnia in the cold window, and Xiao Xiao's loneliness facing the wind and independence. The face is still the same, but the heart is tired. How can you not be old, how can you not be old. He looked at her, the anger of more than a year suddenly disappeared, and even the trace of childish willfulness faded away in this simple sentence. "For more than a year, have you been okay?" "It's nothing good or bad, it's always alive." Zhuge Yue said calmly, although the words were not nice, but he didn't have the same cold tone as before.Chu Qiao knew, however, that he was not bickering with herself, but genuine emotion.Maybe only people like them can realize that there is nothing good or bad, it is good to be alive. "I'm fine too." Zhuge Yue didn't ask, but Chu Qiao said by herself: "I opened an inn, and my life is very comfortable." "I know." The man answered lightly, but Chu Qiao was taken aback, and looked up at him: "You know?" "I have lived with you three times." Chu Qiao was completely stunned, but Zhuge Yue said in a deep voice, "It's been a year, have you figured it out?" "Think, figure out what?" The man slowly frowned, as if you were really good at pretending: "Are you really planning to open an inn for the rest of your life?" Chu Qiao stared, speechless, in fact, she really thought so. "Or are you going to find someone to marry before you're thirty?" Chu Qiao was embarrassed: "Who told you?" "Who else?" Zhuge Yue said, "Of course it's Li Ce, don't you know? He's the one who opened the Chunyu Building opposite you, and I'm the one who opened the Four Seas Inn diagonally behind." Chu Qiao was so shocked that she was speechless. She suddenly thought of those two inns that were neglected. Before that, she had been very complacent, thinking that it was her inn that squeezed them out of business, but she didn't think it was these two. The handwriting of an expert. In this way, Li Ce should be well aware of the affairs of Xuefu City, and he should have been prepared for the actions of those people. Suddenly remembered something, looked up and asked: "Then you knew our identities from the beginning?" "I don't know." Zhuge Yue said, seeing that Chu Qiao didn't believe it, he said impatiently, "Although I have been there, I have never seen you." Yes, she has lived in seclusion for more than a year, and it is true that she seldom goes out. "What are you doing out this time?" Chu Qiao didn't know what to say. After all, it was Li Ce's state affairs, so she said vaguely, "I'm going to Tang Jing." "Humph……" Zhuge Yue snorted coldly, the green trees beside him were covered with faint wisteria and Du Ruo, and the fragrant breeze came faintly, like a cloud of floating clouds. "Master." The man surnamed Cao said from a distance: "The road has been cleared, so we can go." Zhuge Yue didn't make a sound, and stood quietly for a long time, as if he couldn't bear the oppressive atmosphere, he turned around and wanted to leave. "Zhuge Yue!" Chu Qiao suddenly shouted: "Next time you come to the school, you can come and see me." "I don't have time to go." Zhuge Yue replied coldly, turned around slowly, and said with a serious face: "I'm going back to Qinghai, will you follow me?" He just said this sentence, as naturally as an acquaintance asking you if you have eaten, but Chu Qiao was dumbfounded, she is always like this, she can deal with everything calmly, only facing him, All wisdom will be lost.She stared at him blankly, as if she wanted to see another mouth from Zhuge Yue's face to prove that what she just said was not what he said. "Li Ce said that you are a stickler. At that time, there was a big change, and you couldn't figure it out for a while, so I advised me to give you more time." Zhuge Yue said calmly, "Have you figured it out now? Are you coming with me?" "You, you are the Sima of Daxia's military department? And the family is..." "You don't need to worry about those." Zhuge Yue frowned and said in a deep voice, "You just have to say whether you will follow me or not." A flock of birds flew over, two flocks of birds flew over, many flocks of birds flew over the forest, Chu Qiao still didn't speak. Zhuge Yue was suddenly furious, and said sharply, "Are you going or not?" "I'll go, I'll go, I'll go!" Chu Qiao replied loudly, the two blushed and shouted at each other, and the echo echoed around, making the place even more quiet. "It's good to meet you here, so I don't have to go to tell you again." The man deliberately pretended to be very indifferent, as if all this was under his control, but he didn't want to know if he was like this usually Talkative character. "Stop running around, go back to your yard and stay there, and I'll send someone to pick you up when I'm done." After all, he turned around handsomely and left. "Anyway, if you go to Qinghai, you can open an inn." A voice suddenly sounded from behind, Zhuge Yue turned his head sharply and stared at her with a cruel expression. White clouds fluttered in the sky, and the birds poked their heads out from behind the leaves. It seemed strange that things in this world could not be judged by common sense. When she got back to the carriage, Mei Xiang was waiting for her with a smile on her face, but Jing Jing was even happier, she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear.Chu Qiao naturally knew what she was thinking, but she was unwilling to say it out loud. Everything that happened today was simply too unbelievable. Chu Qiao sat down quietly, her heart still beating wildly. Is she too impulsive? "Miss." Mei Xiang smiled and added a cushion for her, and said: "Everything in this world cannot be handled with rationality. This servant thinks that Miss was too calm before, and being impulsive once in a while is not necessarily a bad thing." Chu Qiao turned her head to look at her in surprise, surprised by Mei Xiang's sharp insight. However, Mei Xiang laughed and said, "Miss, don't you know, the current you have written everything on your face. Compared with the previous young lady, Mei Xiang thinks you are more likable like this." The carriage started to leave, and Duoji came over with a frown and said, "Miss, are we going to go with those people?" "Let's go together, of course we'll go together!" Jingjing opened the curtain and shouted, "We're going to go together, and we'll live together in the future, hehe!" After that, he put down the curtain angrily. Mei Xiang poured a cup of ginseng tea for Chu Qiao, sighed softly, and said, "Miss, not everyone will wait for another person year after year. Some things, if you don't catch them at the time, will happen again in the future." Whatever happens, you will regret it." The warm wind blows in along the slightly floating car curtain, like a mother's gentle fingers, the sky is clear and blue, and there are faint eagles flying away, passing through the clouds and away from the dust.
