Chapter 15 Chapter 15 Wanli Danxiao Go Hand in Hand

The army was stationed outside the city, and Qiu Yiting was supposed to stay with the army, but Yan Yunsun dragged him to the capital's vice mansion.After a day of hustle and bustle, until night fell, the two of them were able to enjoy a pot of tea together in the yard. "Yunsun, where's Yiyao?" Qiu Yiting didn't see Feng Chenxue and Qiu Yiyao during the whole day, and there were only two of them at this moment, so he naturally asked, "How is he? I know you're stupid, Then you just let him give you advice, why let him lead the army to attack? His body can't bear it."

"Hey, don't blame me." Upon hearing Qiu Yiting's tone, Yan Yunsun hurriedly separated the relationship, fearing that it would be too late, Qiu Yiting's fist landed on his face again. "Yiyao asked for this, and you know that, you two are all kung fu, I can't force you to do anything." "Oh?" Qiu Yiting was suspicious.He knew his younger brother. Since he was a child, he had never been in the limelight, and he was always a person who was always radiant. How could he take the initiative to ask to lead the army this time?And how could his parents agree with him to come to Yuezhou, which is so far away?

Yan Yunsun was thinking about how to explain when he heard footsteps in his ears, turned his head and saw Yan Xin leading Chunyu brothers and sisters coming. "Brother Qiu, Yanzhou Prefecture." The siblings greeted each other. Seeing them, Qiu Yiting naturally thought of Feng Chenxue, so she asked: "I haven't seen Chen Xue for a long time, is she still in Pill City?" Upon hearing this, Chunyu brother and sister froze, and unconsciously looked at Yan Yunsun. Seeing this, Qiu Yiting couldn't help looking at Yan Yunsun, but his eyes were full of confusion. Yan Yunsun knocked on the teacup, thinking that we should see each other sooner rather than later, besides, what can someone like Qiu Yiting hide from him.So he said: "I'm just going to tell you that there are many people in the deputy mansion, and it's not good for Yiyao to recuperate. The courtyard where Miss Feng lives is quiet, so Yiyao lives there." He stood up, " You are worried about Yiyao's body, then I will take you to see him at this moment, and you will also meet Miss Feng by the way."

Hearing this, Qiu Yiting felt a strange feeling in his heart, but he didn't care much.Only said: "Okay." So the four of them left the capital's mansion and went to Qingyang Lane. The crescent moon in the sky is like a hook, the lanterns are lit on the long street, and passers-by in twos and threes are endless. Tonight, Dancheng is immersed in celebration and joy. The four of them were walking on the street, but none of them spoke, it was quiet. All the way to Qingyang Lane, when I was still at the entrance of the lane, I heard the faint sound of the piano. Qiu Yiting's expression lifted after hearing this, and he couldn't help but speed up a few steps, and walked in the front.He has heard such elegant piano sound many times.Following the sound of the zither, one can see a small courtyard in front of him. The door of the courtyard is ajar, and a ray of light leaks from the crack of the door, and the melodious sound of the zither comes from inside.

So Qiu Yiting signaled them to walk lightly so as not to interrupt the people playing the piano in the courtyard. He quietly approached the front of the courtyard, and then gently opened the courtyard door, and suddenly the lights rushed towards him, and the sound of the piano was clear to the ear.Then he saw a white pearl plum tree blooming in a pavilion in the yard, and under the snow-like flower tree, a woman in green clothes with her head downcast was concentrating on playing the piano, her bare hands flicking lightly, her voice was as clear as water. At that moment, he stopped in his tracks, and stood in front of the door quietly looking at the person playing the qin with his head bowed. The next moment, the person playing the qin raised his head slightly. At that moment, he felt that the world was quiet and everything disappeared. , He has her in his eyes, and the sound of flowers falling in his ears.

The night is as dark as ink, and the lights are as bright as stars. He stood at the door, listening to the piano quietly, looking at the people behind him, looking at the things in the world. The evening wind blows the flowers, the delicate fragrance dyes the coat, the plain face is like the moon, and the qin music is peaceful. When the song ended, he woke up leisurely, walked in the door, and was about to call her, but saw her looking sideways to the left. At that moment, the lights on the porch fell, illuminating her beauty like water, and her eyes were lingering. He was startled, and when he looked at her, his head was drenched with ice water.

In front of the corridor was a bamboo bed, and a man was reclining on the couch, his eyes were slightly closed, and his expression was peaceful, as if he was still immersed in the music of the piano.The light clearly illuminated the picturesque pale complexion of the man, that was a person he was familiar with deeply, his younger brother Qiu Yiyao. He stood dumbly at the door, and the three people behind him also saw the situation in the courtyard. Chunyu brothers and sisters looked at Qiu Yiting with expressions not knowing whether to advance or retreat, but Yan Yunsun, who knew the inside story, could only sigh secretly.Then he raised his hand and knocked on the courtyard door, only to wake up the two people who were sinking in their own world.

Feng Chenxue and Qiu Yi moved their eyes away, and saw the Qiu Yi Pavilion in front of the courtyard at a glance, they were all startled. Then, Qiu Yiyao slowly supported Zhuta up and called out: "Brother." Feng Chenxue also got up and looked at Qiu Yiting calmly. Qiu Yiting walked in, looked at Feng Chenxue, then at his younger brother with a sick face, and suddenly wished that what he saw just now was just an illusion. "Yiyao, are you feeling better today?" Yan Yunsun waved his folding fan and greeted calmly, "Yiting knows that you are recuperating here, so I want to come and see you." Then he looked at you again. Chen Xue said: "Chen Xue, you and Yi Ting have known each other for a long time, so I don't need to introduce you. As for Kong Zhao, I still miss the tea she made. Yi Ting, what are you doing standing there? Chen Xue is a beauty. But you don't have to stare in a daze, but look at her standing with Yiyao, isn't she a golden boy and a jade girl?"

Hearing this, Qiu Yiting's temples twitched violently, and he looked sideways at Yan Yunsun, his gaze like a sword, "Yunsun, I heard that you once stopped Princess Chenhua's jade chariot on the street, just to take a look at her. " This sentence made Feng Chenxue, Qiu Yiyao, Yanyun and Sun Qiqi stay on the spot, while Chunyu brothers and sisters were puzzled, wondering why Qiu Yiting said this suddenly. "Yiting, you..." Yan Yunsun looked at him in astonishment, did he know Feng Chenxue's identity?He knows? ! Qiu Yiting took two steps closer, looking at the peerless person in front of the flower tree, her heart ached.Turning her head, looking at Qiu Yiyao in front of the corridor, she asked softly and clearly: "Yiyao, do you know who she is?"

Qiu Yiyao's face was as white as paper, and a gleam in his eyes was like a candle in the wind. He met Qiu Yiting's sharp eyes like a sword, and nodded slightly, "I know." Qiu Yiting's heart felt like a nail was nailed into his heart, and the blood flowed out in an instant in unbearable pain. He stubbornly repeated the question: "Do you know who her real identity is?" As soon as this sentence was asked, Qiu Yiyao's figure flickered, but he stood firmly on the couch, his body was as solemn as a pole of lingyun green bamboo, even though he was bearing a lot of guilt, he was not tortuous.He looked at his elder brother and said word by word: "Brother, I know."

At that moment, Qiu Yiting's eyes flashed disappointment, anger, and sadness, but he restrained himself and just looked at his younger brother silently, feeling suffocated and unbearable. The atmosphere in the courtyard was condensed, Yan Yunsun stood aside and did not dare to speak, Chunyu brothers and sisters were astonished, they seemed to understand but half understood. For a long time, Qiu Yiting shifted her eyes to look at Feng Chenxue, and she also looked at him quietly, his eyes were complicated, while hers were as cold as before.After looking at each other for a while, Qiu Yiting suddenly turned around and strode away. "Brother Qiu?" The Chunyu brothers and sisters called out, but failed to stop them. They watched him leave without turning his head, and then looked back at Qiu Yiyao and Feng Chenxue with complicated expressions. They were surprised and doubtful. "Hey." Yan Yunsun sighed, "Yiyao, don't worry, I'll go and see him." Then he turned and left. Seeing that he had also left, the Chunyu brothers and sisters didn't know whether to leave or stay. They stood for a while, when footsteps came from outside the door, and then Kong Zhao and Yan Xu came back with a few paper bags. "Hey, you are here." Kong Zhao greeted, "Why are you standing there?" Kong Zhao's voice broke the condensed silence in the courtyard, Feng Chenxue walked to the front of the corridor, looking at Qiu Yiyao with a little worry.Qiu Yiyao reached out to hold her hand, and she said softly, "You should take your medicine, go in." "En." Qiu Yi nodded, and the two entered the room. In the yard, Kong Zhao said to the Chunyu brothers and sisters: "Help me pick up the things in my hands, and tell you, today you have a good fortune. I bought some herbs that can be eaten, and I will make some delicious dishes later." Let me give you a taste of the medicinal food." Although Chunyu brothers and sisters had a lot of doubts in their hearts, they also knew that if they didn't want to talk, they wouldn't be able to ask, so now they heard that Kong Zhao was going to make a medicinal meal, so they put aside those for now, and the two of them took the medicine bag, He went to the kitchen with Kong Zhao and Yan Xu. However, Yan Yunsun chased out of the alley, and Qiu Yiting was nowhere to be seen, but he didn't bother to look for it, but went directly back to the Vice President's Mansion, went to the backyard, ordered Yan Xin to find a ladder, and then looked at the The ladder climbed up to the roof, and sure enough, he saw a person sitting alone on the cornice in front of him.He stepped on the roof carefully, walked over carefully, and sat down beside Qiu Yiting. Looking at Qiu Yiting sideways, there is no expression on that handsome face, but he has known him since childhood, so he knows what is behind this expressionless face.Thinking of that moment in the small courtyard, he was obviously disappointed and angry, and his heart was very painful, but he could bear all the emotions and refused to hurt others. I have to admire his self-cultivation and lament his caring and loving heart for his younger brother. When thinking about why he is here today, and thinking about his hidden regrets, the feeling in his heart becomes very complicated, and he can't help but stab him. "Hey, Yiting, that beauty just now is Princess Chenhua, her beauty is truly overwhelming." Qiu Yiting didn't respond. "Such kind of demeanor and elegance, some people can't even dream of it. You are really lucky, you can marry such a beauty as your wife." Yan Yunsun's tone was full of envy and longing. Qiu Yiting remained silent. Yan Yunsun continued: "What's rare about such a beautiful woman is that Lan Xinhui is transparent inside and out, she is really unparalleled in the world." Qiu Yiting finally turned her head to look at him, her eyes were cold, but she still didn't speak. Yan Yunsun continued his efforts, "It's a pity that you missed such a beautiful woman, and now this beautiful woman falls in love with your younger brother." He smiled and looked at the man with a stiff face, "Hey, what are you doing right now? How does it feel? Is it joy? Or regret? Is it joy? Or is it sad?” Qiu Yiting still didn't speak, he just punched him.Yan Yunsun hurriedly hid, but how could he escape the fist of the first general of the dynasty with his lack of limbs. "Oops!" With a scream, Yan Yunsun caressed his eye socket, tears welled up from the other eye, and he looked at Qiu Yiting with resentment. "A gentleman uses his mouth but not his hands! Didn't the master teach you that!" Qiu Yiting didn't say a word. Yan Yunsun put down his hands rubbing his eyes, and after a moment of silence, he opened his mouth and said: "Back then, your wedding with Princess Chenhua was postponed again and again, and finally you got Yiting to marry you on your behalf. You really only have yourself to blame." Qiu Yiting continued to sit like a statue. "You may be thinking at this moment, did they have an affair, so they faked their deaths and left, and then made an appointment to meet in Pill City?" Yan Yunsun looked at the front and asked lightly. Naturally, Qiu Yiting didn't answer him, but he There is no need for Qiu Yiting's reply, and he said to himself: "Now that you are calm, you won't think so, but you can't deny that you didn't have such a thought at the moment you knew it. Because..." He sighed, "I At the time, I thought about it that way, but after thinking about Yiyao's personality, I knew he would never do such a thing." He turned his head and looked at Qiu Yiting, "When you defeated Yuan Rong in Mozhou and returned to the imperial capital, it was the day when the Anyu Palace was on fire, and it was also the time you and the princess missed. Although the man died, those rumors You must have heard it before, but you don’t think about it.” He paused, and then said, “The princess got lost in Baitan Mountain back then, and it was Yiyao who braved the storm to find her back. At the moment of death, you and I don't know whether they had an affair, but we can be sure that they didn't have the idea of ​​betraying you, because not long after returning to the imperial capital, the princess died in the fire, and everyone in the world thought she was dead Yes, including Yiyao." At this moment, Qiu Yiting recalled what happened three years ago. When he returned to the Hou's mansion that day, he saw that the house was in chaos and his mother was crying.Now that I think about it again, I don't know that Yiyao was caused by the sudden pain of hearing the news of the princess' death. "Yiting." Yan Yunsun called him, and his clear voice was full of sorrow and sadness, "Yiyao has not lived long, you should have seen it. So he asked me to come forward and take him away from the imperial capital under the guise of seeking a doctor. , because he doesn't want your parents to watch him die with their own eyes, he's afraid they won't be able to bear it. Yiyao is such a big fool who only thinks of others, how could he do something that would shame the Marquis Mansion? I'm sorry you're sorry about Madam Hou Fu's matter." Qiu Yiting's chest was suffocated. "Not long after arriving in Yuezhou, there was an incident about Dancheng. He asked to come to Dancheng. He told me that he was picked up by Lord Hou from the battlefield, so his home should also be on the battlefield." Yan Yunsun's voice was dry, "God knows what kind of evil fate, he met the princess again here. Yiting, I heard that the reason why the princess returned to Pill City was because of your words, then you will know better about their meeting Whether it was intentional or not." Qiu Yiting's heart was blocked.Recalling that night when he persuaded Feng Chenxue to come to Pill City, he was thinking that with her here, Pill City would be safe, and when he stepped on the mountain and reunited with her here, that was the moment he recognized her, and he said goodbye to her. She apologizes, telling her heartfelt best moments.But... but how could he have imagined that it was he who sent her to Yiyao's side and facilitated their meeting with his own hands. "Whether they fell in love in the Hou's mansion back then, or in Baitan Mountain that day, or in this Dancheng, we don't know, but..." Yan Yunsun sighed, "I mean Ting, you naturally know the saying 'Love doesn't know where it starts, but it goes deeper'." Qiu Yiting was stunned. "I don't know where it started, but it goes deeper and deeper." He murmured, and for a moment, he was so sad that he couldn't help it.Of course he knew what he said, but he never cared about it, but now, after experiencing it personally, he realized how helpless he was. Yan Yunsun didn't speak any more, and the two sat quietly. The moonlight is hazy, and the night is as dark as water. After a long time, Qiu Yiting's voice suddenly sounded, clear and confused under the lonely night sky. "If I was the one who saluted her back then, I don't know what it will be like today." Yan Yunsun was taken aback for a moment, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Maybe...your sons can carry your Longyuan sword." Qiu Yiting laughed out loud "hahaha..." when he heard the words, and then gradually turned into a low laugh of "hahaha...", and later, the laughter was as deep as the solemn night in the distance. Yan Yunsun just looked at him quietly, neither stopped nor comforted him. After laughing for a while, Qiu Yiting finally stopped talking. "Yunsun, what do you think of Chenxue?" "Huh?" Yan Yunsun was taken aback for another moment, and then said: "There is no need to talk about talent, it's just..." He paused again, and then said with a little hesitation: "Where she is, there is always something special." Looking at her, I feel peaceful and serene, as if everything in the world is beyond the sky, and it seems that everything in the world is in my heart. There is the comfort of being unencumbered, and the satisfaction of having everything in hand.” "It turns out I'm not the only one who feels this way." Qiu Yiting sighed wistfully, "In this world, there really are beauties who can influence people's mind and body." Yan Yunsun was startled suddenly, and then laughed at himself, isn't that why he got his official robes. "It's not the beauty's fault that the beauty is overwhelming, but the catastrophe is caused by the weak will of the person who falls in love with the beauty." Qiu Yiting looked up at the sky, in the boundless night sky, the crescent moon and stars seemed so small. Yan Yunsun suddenly understood when he heard the words, and looked sideways at him, not knowing whether it was admiration or regret. "Children's love and heroism are always good or bad, and there is always one gain and one loss." Qiu Yiting's face was already calm, with only a little melancholy in his eyes. Yan Yunsun was silent, looking at his best friend beside him. It is his sincerity to hold the heroic ambition with the love of children, or it is just his excuse.He and Yiyao brothers are friendly, and Yiyao is willing to chase the enemy for long distances regardless of his body in order to complete his elder brother's career, but why can't his elder brother give up his love in order to complete his younger brother's marriage.It's just...only he can understand how helpless and heartbroken it is to give up a woman like Feng Chenxue. He got up suddenly and said: "Yiting, let's go drink." "No." Qiu Yiting calmly refused. "Hey, it's your blessing that my son descended to honor you to drink with you, a frustrated person." Yan Yunsun stretched out his hand to tug at him. "Frustrated and drunk is a coward's act." Qiu Yiting sat firmly like a rock. "You!" Yan Yunsun gritted his teeth, stared at him for a while, and finally sat down discouraged. So, the two sat on the roof, blowing the night breeze, looking at the stars and the moon, and meditating on each other. At that moment, in the small courtyard of Qingyang Lane, Kong Zhao cooked some delicious herbal meals and took out a jar of pear blossom wine, and the few of them savored it carefully under the moonlight in the courtyard.Qiu Yiyao sat in the courtyard for a while, and the night wind made her cough a little, so she went into the house to rest, and the rest of them continued. When the wine was full, Miss Chunyu asked: "Chen Xue, you really don't like Brother Qiu?" Feng Chenxue glanced at her, but didn't answer. But Miss Chunyu understood what she meant, so she was very puzzled, "Why? Think about Brother Qiu conquering a country in a month, what kind of hero is that, you don't like it?" Feng Chenxue still ignored it. Miss Chunyu was drunk and couldn't help sighing, "I really like Brother Qiu, but it's a pity he only likes you." Hearing these words, Feng Chenxue, Kong Zhao, Yan Xu and even Chunyu Shenxiu were startled, they all turned their eyes to Miss Chunyu. Seen by the eyes of the three, Miss Chunyu raised her chin, without any embarrassment, and said: "I like heroes like Brother Qiu, it only shows that this girl has good vision!" "Pfft!" Kong Zhao was the first to laugh while covering his mouth. Feng Chenxue's expression didn't change, Yan Xu looked away, Chunyu Shenxiu looked at her sister a little dumbfounded. "Shenyi, since you like Eldest Young Master, then you should talk to him." Kong Zhao rolled his eyes. "Hey!" Chunyu sighed deeply, leaned on the table, and pointed at Feng Chenxue, "Look, I can't match Chenxue in terms of talent and appearance. With Chenxue standing here, how can Big Brother Qiu see it?" Get on me." "Oh." Kong Zhao smiled and nodded, "Comparing you and my sister is really incomparable." Feng Chenxue looked at Chunyu Shenyi who was already a little drunk in his eyes, pondered for a while, and then said plainly and clearly: "Why do you blame another person, why can't you make him insist on you?" As soon as the words hit his ears, Chunyu raised his head from the table with deep meaning, and stared blankly at Chen Xue. Feng Chenxue didn't speak any more, she stood up, her robe was swaying, and the person had already entered the house. In the yard, Chunyu Shenyi was still sitting in a daze. Kong Zhao looked at her, then covered his mouth and laughed again. Chunyu came back to his senses deeply, glared at her, and said, "When you fall in love with someone one day, it will be my turn to laugh at you." Kong Zhao heard this, and said: "My favorite is my sister, don't tell me you can't laugh." "What you like is not what you like." Chunyu rolled his eyes deeply, "You will never guard your sister for the rest of your life. When you get married, your husband will be your favorite." Kong Zhao shook his head without even thinking about it, "I will be by my sister's side for the rest of my life." There was a kind of naturalness in those words, which stunned the three people present. They didn't know Kong Zhao's life experience, and they didn't know that she had only one Feng Chenxue in her life, so they couldn't understand her attachment to her sister. . So Chunyu pretended to be older than her so he knew more than her, and said: "My mother said that people always want to get married, and they always have their own family and children. Only such a life is complete." .” "I feel very satisfied by my sister's side." Kong Zhao said. "Hey, that's because you haven't gotten married yet, so you don't know. When you get married, you will feel that your life will be more fulfilling and interesting, just like my father and my mother." Chunyu continued to persuade deeply. Kong Zhao thought for a while, "That's true." So Chunyu smiled deeply, but Kong Zhao's next sentence was, "I don't know if it's good to get married, but what I can know now is to be with my sister. I feel very happy and satisfied in life, and it’s good to be like this for the rest of my life.” So the three of them were startled again, wondering if this little girl would spend her whole life guarding her elder sister without getting married. Kong Zhao wrinkled his nose, and said again: "Besides, if you really want to get married, my sister will help me think about the arrangements, and I don't need to worry about it." So the Chunyu brothers and sisters felt that their worries just now were completely useless, that's right, with Feng Chenxue, they don't need to worry about Kong Zhao's affairs.And Yan Xu's heart skipped a beat when he saw Kong Zhao's beautiful face under the moon. The four of them continued to drink and gossip until late at night when Chunyu brothers and sisters took their leave. On the second day, Chunyu Shenyi woke up and remembered an important matter, so after having breakfast, he went to the Vice President's Mansion.Once there, I saw Yan Yunsun drinking tea with his head propped up and a sleepy face. "Where's Brother Qiu?" Yan Yunsun raised his eyelids and yawned, "I don't know, I haven't seen anyone since morning." "Oh." Chunyu sat down deeply, and poured himself a cup of tea. "Did you have something to do with him?" Yan Yunsun yawned again, last night the wind was too late, so he only slept for an hour. "Brother Qiu left too early last night, he forgot about the 'Cangya Flower'." Chunyu poured down half a cup of tea with deep meaning. "What's 'Cang Ya Hua'?" Yan Yunsun didn't care much, and continued to fight the sleepy bug. "I heard it's a rare elixir." Chunyu replied deeply, "There is also a 'Phoenix Yicao' that is also very effective, but I haven't seen any of them, only the 'Cangya Flower' Chen Xue snatched it." The mountain dwarves, and then thought it was too ugly and smelly, so I gave it to Brother Qiu." Yan Yunsun was taken aback for a moment, then lifted his spirits, and asked: "You mean 'Cangya Phoenix Clothes'? Yiting has this?" "I don't know if 'Phoenix Yicao' exists, but 'Cangya Flower' is indeed in Brother Qiu's hands." Chunyu said deeply. "I remembered early this morning, isn't this medicine just for Brother Qiu's illness? Chen Xue hasn't mentioned it for so long, I'm afraid she might have forgotten it too." Yan Yunsun and Sun Meifeng moved lightly.Feng Chenxue never mentioned it?When she gave the medicine to Yiting, she was probably thinking that Yiting would bring it back to treat Yiyao, but she never thought that she would meet Yiyao in Pill City, and at this moment, how could they go to Yiting I want that medicine. "I'll go to Qingyang Lane to have a look, maybe Big Brother Qiu is already there." Chunyu put the teacup away deeply and left. Behind him, Yan Yunsun slowly poured a cup of tea, "'Cangya Phoenix Clothes'..." murmured, and then sighed softly, Emperor Zhaoxi also served the 'Cangya Phoenix Clothes' back then. Qiuyi Pavilion did not go to Qingyang Lane, but went to the camp outside the city, and did not leave the camp until sunset to return to the city. After entering the city gate, he walked slowly on the street, casually looking at the passers-by in the shops beside the street, suddenly he had a thought, then turned his head, and saw Feng Chenxue standing on the side of the street three feet away.With black temples and a plain face, she just stood quietly, but her own brilliance flowed, eclipsing everything around her. He walked over and looked at her, his heart suddenly heavy. "Yiting." Feng Chenxue called him calmly. Qiu Yiting felt relieved, she didn't call him General Qiu, nor did she call him Eldest Young Master, she finally didn't regard him as a passerby.Looking at the sky, he said: "Chen Xue, how about watching the sunset with me?" "Okay." Feng Chenxue agreed. So the two walked side by side on the long street, both of them were extremely charming people, which naturally attracted the attention of passers-by on the street.The two walked leisurely, across the long street, across the stone bridge, through the alleyway, and then arrived outside the north gate. Half a mile out of the city gate, you can see a lake. Opposite the lake is a village. The two stopped by the lake. The clear lake reflects the beautiful sunset and the green Mount Jiuluo, surrounded by spruce trees. There are some nameless wild flowers blooming at the foot, which is very quiet and pleasant. Standing by the lake, the two of them did not speak in silence, the evening wind was blowing, bringing a bit of coolness.The village under the shadow of the setting sun is picturesque and quiet, with the sound of cocks crowing and dogs barking faintly, smoke billowing from the roofs, and people returning home in a hurry on the track and field. Seeing such a scene, the two who have only experienced war feel a sense of peace and tranquility. "Chenxue." After a long time, Qiu Yiting suddenly called out to her. Feng Chenxue turned to look at him. "If I saluted you back then, then it would be a long time today." Qiu Yiting looked at her sideways, trying to see any changes in those eyes. Those eyes were as clear and sparkling as the lake in front of him. The moment he heard the words, the waves swayed slightly, and the next moment, as quiet as a mirror, he moved his head and looked at the cooking smoke in the midair. "Yiting, the past is no longer there, because the past has passed, and time cannot flow back, nor can you and I turn back." Hearing this, Qiu Yiting's heart was throbbing, unable to calm down, staring at the woman beside her, feeling lost and helpless. "Chen Xue, it's just because I missed it and arrived late." Feng Chenxue was silent, looking ahead with distant eyes. After a long time, she opened her mouth softly, "The three of us are close or shallow, or only God knows. But, Yiting, no matter how far apart Yiyao and I are, Far, we are all closest to each other." Qiu Yiting's chest was suffocated and he couldn't speak. Feng Chenxue took out the golden pen and hairpin from his sleeve, "Yiting, return this to you." Qiu Yiting lowered her eyes, staring blankly at the golden hairpin, her heart filled with bitterness.He secretly bought this hairpin that day, and inserted it between his temples when he parted, both as a courtship and as a hint.He knew that she was his wife, Princess Chen Hua, but since she was reborn, this time, whether she was Chen Hua or Chen Xue, he proposed to her personally.Now she really wants to pay him back. The golden pen hairpin is extraordinarily brilliant and dazzling under the reflection of the sunset, and it is held in the white slender hand, and the gold and jade charm complement each other. "This pen hairpin should be my betrothal gift for my younger brother." Feng Chenxue was startled, raised his hand to look at him, the man in front of him was bathed in the rays of light, his heroic appearance was timeless, as if descending from a divine mansion. "Chenxue, this pen hairpin is my betrothal gift for my younger brother." Qiu Yiting's voice was filled with a sense of melancholy and calm relief. After a long time, Feng Chenxue bowed her head, then gently closed her open palms. Qiu Yiting looked at it with sourness and joy, "Chen Xue, how about I wear this hairpin for you?" Feng Chenxue stared at him, silent for a long time, she nodded slightly, "Okay." Qiu Yiting took the pen hairpin from her hand, inserted it between her temples, looked at it for a moment, and then said softly: "Chen Xue, I wear this pen hairpin for you." Hearing this, Feng Chenxue couldn't stop sighing inwardly. "Chen Xue, are you sighing for me?" Qiu Yiting stared at her, and then a slight smile slowly appeared on her lips. Feng Chenxue didn't answer, just turned around, "It's getting late, let's go back." The two left the lake and returned to the city, walked through the alleys, stone bridges, and long streets. When the road they walked together came to an end, they turned left and right, and walked in separate lanes.After walking for a while, Qiu Yiting looked back and saw that slender figure gradually drifting away, slowly submerged in the twilight. The sun sets, night falls, and the moon rises. When Qiu Yiting returned to the Vice President's Mansion, Yan Yunsun seemed hesitant to speak when he saw him come back.But Qiu Yiting ignored it, went back to the room after dinner, and went out again after a while.As soon as Yan Yunsun saw him going out, he immediately followed him.After walking for only two quarters, the two arrived at Qingyang Lane. "Oh, you really came to see the beauty." Yan Yunsun folded his fan and knocked on the door first. When Kong Zhao who opened the door saw the two people outside, he was happy at first, then nervous. "Little beauty Kong Zhao, is your sister there?" Yan Yunsun stepped into the door, "I haven't seen her for a day, I miss her very much." "Yes." Kong Zhao replied, looking at Qiu Yiting, he still greeted, "Please, sir." Qiu Yiting nodded lightly and entered. "Sister, Yanzhou Mansion and the eldest son are here." Kong Zhao called to the open wing room, and then led the two of them in. In the room, Qiu Yiyao is drinking medicine, while Feng Chenxue is reading a book. Hearing that the two were coming, Qiu Yiyao put down the medicine bowl and got up to greet her, "Brother, Yunsun." "You guys are here." Feng Chenxue put down the book in his hand. Qiu Yiting glanced at Qiu Yiyao, then at the half-drinked medicine, and said, "Drink the medicine." Qiu Yiyao obediently picked up the medicine bowl. Feng Chenxue took a look at Yan Yunsun and walked out, Yan Yunsun understood and followed her out. In the room, Qiu Yiyao finished drinking the medicine and looked up at her stalwart elder brother. She had a lot of things to say to her elder brother, but when the two faced each other at this moment, they felt that no matter what words they said were superfluous, they would only be words. With an excuse to evade, he called "Big Brother" and fell silent. Looking at his younger brother, Qiu Yiting couldn't bear to hate or get annoyed, so he could only sigh softly, "Why are you being so polite in front of me, please sit down." She also sat down on the bamboo chair in front of the couch. Qiu Yiyao sat down as promised. "But I haven't seen you for a few months, and you made yourself like this. If your parents see it, they will feel distressed again." Seeing his younger brother's shattered appearance, Qiu Yiting couldn't help but feel distressed. "Brother." Qiu Yiyao's heart ached and hurt, "I'm ashamed of you." Hearing this, Qiu Yiting paused for a moment, then looked at his younger brother calmly, "Since that's the case, why do you still want to do this?" Qiu Yi looked at her elder brother quietly for a while, then calmly said: "Yes." "Even dragging such a weak body?" Qiu Yiting asked again. There was pain in Qiu Yiyao's eyes, but there was a faint and unrepentant smile on her face, "Yes." "I'm relieved to hear you say that." Qiu Yiting sighed. "Brother." Qiu Yiyao's heart ached again. Qiu Yiting got up, walked slowly to the door, looked at Feng Chenxue and Yan Yunsun who were chatting casually in the courtyard, stared for a moment, and then he said leisurely, "You, me, Chen Hua, the three of you are married because of their marriage. The entanglement is because I have no fate with Chen Hua, and the fire has cut everything off. Afterwards, you, me, Chen Xue, we met each other, Chen Xue is interested in you, and it is still me who has no fate with her." She turned around , looking at his younger brother, "Yiyao, you and Chen Xue are in love, you have nothing to feel guilty about. Seriously speaking, I am ashamed of you. These years, I have been fighting outside, leaving my family and my parents behind. I gave it to you, it is you who, together with my share, will do your best to take care of your father and mother, so that they can enjoy the family relationship." "Brother." Qiu Yiyao shook her head, "My parents treat me like a parent and child, and love me in every possible way. I should be filial. My eldest brother has defended and taken care of me since I was a child, and because I always fight with people, I was punished because of me." Daddy beat and scolded...but I haven't done anything for elder brother, and now I still..." "Yiyao." Qiu Yiting stepped forward, looked at his younger brother, feeling bitter, helpless and pity, "Yunsun always called you a soft-hearted fool, although I used to refute him all the time, but I In my heart, I really think he is right, you are such a soft-hearted fool, you have always thought of others, never for yourself." He raised his hand and patted his brother's forehead, "You are my brother, and you are bullied by others. , I naturally want to protect you and avenge you, just like you are willing to think hard day and night for my sick body, we are relatives, and it is only natural to protect and take care of each other." "Brother." Qiu Yiyao raised her hand to hold her elder brother's hand, but did not let go, holding it tightly, with a smile on her face. Qiu Yiting squeezed his younger brother's hand, then let go, and took out a sapphire bottle from his sleeve, "This one is for you." Qiu Yiyao took it, "What is it?" "Cang Ya Feng Yi." Qiu Yiting said lightly. Qiu Yiyao shook her hand, suddenly raised her head and stared at her brother with wide eyes. Looking at his younger brother's appearance, Qiu Yiting couldn't help but smile, and said: "This 'Cangya Phoenix Clothes' is made of Cangya Flower and Phoenix Clothes Grass, the former was snatched by Chen Xue for you, and the latter is I took it from Shanyou Palace, and asked the royal doctor in the palace to make medicine and put it in this bottle. I heard that it can cure all diseases. I only hope that after taking it, your pain will disappear and you will be strong and strong of." "Big brother..." Qiu Yiyao choked up, feeling moved and guilty, looking at her brother, unable to put into words. "Yiyao, if you are well, my parents and I will feel at ease." Qiu Yiting sighed. "Brother!" Qiu Yiyao was excited, and wanted to say that it is a blessing that I can be the son of the Qiu family in this life, and that we will be brothers in the next life, but when the words came to my lips, I felt that I did not have the qualifications. Qiu Yiting seemed to know his younger brother's heart, he looked at his younger brother with nostalgia, and said in a gentle voice, "Yiyao, if there is an afterlife, we will still be brothers." He knew that no matter whether he lived or died, he would lose this love from now on. My younger brother, when I think about it, I feel a pain in my chest. "Brother..." Qiu Yiyao was heartbroken, and tears finally burst out of her eyes. "Fool." Qiu Yiting hugged his younger brother's shoulders tightly, his eyes warmed up, "Yiyao, it's a blessing to be brothers with you in this life, I hope I can be so lucky in the next life, I will still be a brother, you Still be my brother." "Okay, we will still be brothers in the next life, you will still be an older brother, and I will still be a younger brother." Qiu Yiyao hugged her elder brother tightly, and from then on, thousands of rivers and mountains will be separated forever, and it is difficult to meet in the underworld... On July 3rd, the army pulled out of camp and set off to return to the imperial capital. Yan Yunsun went with him and returned to Zecheng. Qiu Yiyao and Feng Chenxue saw each other off in front of the city gate. When we are separated from each other, there will be a time to say goodbye. Qiu Yiting jumped on the horse, looked at the pair of Bi people standing side by side, and said with a smile: "Yiyao, I will tell my parents that you have to meet God and heal your illness, and you will fall in love with a beautiful woman at first sight. Husband and wife are happy and unwilling to go home, they are unfilial sons who forget their parents after having a daughter-in-law!" "Okay." Qiu Yiyao smiled slightly, "Brother, just tell your parents like this." "Hahaha..." Qiu Yiting laughed loudly, and raised his whip at the same time, "Yiyao, remember to go home and see your parents when you are free!" When the words fell, the white horse galloped away, and that gesture was embarking on a journey The spirit was unstoppable, followed by Chunyu brothers and sisters, generals, and a mighty and brave army. 庆云二十二年五月中。 山尤、采蜚合谋联兵攻打皇朝月州，为靖晏将军秋意亭洞悉。他一方面派月州陆都统屯兵景城挡住了采蜚大军的进攻，另一方面以丹城为饵牵住了山尤十万大军，而他自己率云彻骑出兵山尤，一路势如破竹。 六月七日，云彻骑攻破山尤国都。 六月二十四日，云彻骑与丹城守军两面夹攻，于固泰尽歼残军，至此山尤亡。 而这却只是皇朝第一将征途的开始，此后二十年里，元戎、芜射、采蜚、南丹、齐桑相继为他所破，真真做到他当年所说“那不若中原大地只我皇朝一国，从此后，东起东溟，西横打磨，北枕雪山，南踏碧涯，再无边城再无敌我”，而他亦缔建皇朝无人可及的功勋。 不同于后世对燕云孙褒贬不一的评价，后世提起秋意亭时，无不是敬仰崇拜。燕云孙战绩卓越功在百世是毋庸置疑的，只是他的风流浪荡不为清高之人所喜，以至史书评到某人时甚为苛刻。而秋意亭武勋盖世，更是品性端方，其一生仅有一妻，即安豫王长女宸华公主，只是公主早逝，尔后数十年，他未有续妻，只一位侍妾相伴。妾生一子后，于庆云三十一年染病而亡。其子喜爱书画，终生未仕，娶燕云孙之女为妻。 后世都评秋意亭这位倾世名将为不败战神，同时亦都认为，他能创下这令后世之人无法企及的功勋，除了他自身卓绝的才华外，更重要的是因为有独具慧眼用人不疑的明睿帝。 秋意亭一生武勋前可追始帝、朝晞帝，后世数百年无人可比，说一声功高震主不为过，但君臣数十年，明睿帝从未疑过他，再多的弹劾、谣言、中伤，都不曾动摇过明睿帝对他的信任。而秋意亭功勋再大，亦一生不肯在朝中任官职，不参朝政，只理兵事，只一个“靖晏将军”之封号，谨言慎行，不居功自傲，不恃宠而骄，不嗜金银奢华，不贪权恋势，不越人臣之位，一生事君以忠。 庆云三十四年，明睿帝封秋意亭为“穆王”，那时皇朝唯一一位异姓王。 那样的互信不疑的君臣，也令今后帝王臣子羡慕不已，但却再也不曾有过那样的一对辉耀史册的明君能将。那一段君臣际遇传为千古佳话。 Even if it is ruthless, it is also touching 皇朝十九洲，每一州皆有其特色，比如华州那是最富饶的，兰州那自然是兰花天下绝，墨州那里最多金矿，而风景最秀逸的要数玉州，但是人文最鼎盛的则在风州。 在皇朝有这么一句话:十分才，七自风。 即是说，十个才子中，必定有七个是出自风州。足可见风州人才之众。 自前朝始，风州便以文化之盛列居诸国之首，历朝历代皆多才子名士，他们或为奇人异士隐于乡野，或为文学大家授学育人，或官居朝堂辅佐帝家……翻开史书、传记，风州的风流才士举不胜数，而在元恺年间，却是一人独领风骚，那人便是风鸿骞。 风鸿骞生于风州，自小便有“神童”之称，而后少年成名才华横溢，十五岁时辞亲远游，北越雪山，南穷苍梧，西过大漠，东涉溟海，踏遍烟霞览遍河山，其才其人亦随其足迹远扬天下，举国提才，必数其名。而他这一次远游却是整整游了十五年，至他三十岁时，一人一骑风尘归来。 风家在风州乃是名门望族，风鸿骞虽父母早已亡故，但族中长辈却有许多，且个个都十分看重这位风家最为出众的子孙，所以他一回到家，长辈们对他皆是关怀备至，为他打点生活之余，最后无不是将其终身大事摆在重中之重。 需知以风鸿骞的三十“高龄”，在别人家那都是可抱孙子的年纪了，只是他依是独身一人，且自己似乎完全没将婚姻之事放在心上，怎不叫长辈们焦急，于是一个个都为他物色妻室。以风鸿骞其人品才华，长辈们当然不能随便将就，将城中的名门闺秀放了个遍，最后终于挑中了江家小姐。 提起这江家小姐，那在风州亦是十分有名。生得花容月貌，又通琴诗，江家亦是风州名门，祖上数代为官，那上门说亲保媒亦多，只是这江小姐却是十分的有主见。道婚姻乃自己之事，关乎一生，岂能任他人定之。江家虽有四位公子，却只她这一位娇女，江家老爷、夫人万分疼爱，因此对外宣扬，自家的女婿让女儿自己挑。于是但凡说亲的，都需将人领至江小姐面前，让她亲眼看一眼，只要她能看中即可。只是多年下来，无论是世家贵胄还是才子俊士，这江小姐愣是没一个看上的，以至到了双十年华依待字闺中。 风家的长辈们自也闻得江小姐之名，听得媒人一说，想着这江小姐年岁相当，出身名门，又有才有貌，与风鸿骞可不正是天造地设的一对。 于是，在一个风清花妍的春日，风鸿骞与江小姐予百花盛放的风州名园“瑜园”相会。 一个风神疏朗，一个琴心诗华。 于是，一段姻缘便此而成。 成亲后，自是琴瑟在御举案齐眉，两年后，风夫人为风家诞下一位千金。 风鸿骞平生有三好，一是书，二是酒，三是牡丹。因此，风家最多的是书，最稀罕的是美酒佳酿，最漂亮的自然是花园里满园的牡丹，各色品种，应有尽有。 元恺十六年，四月，正是牡丹盛放的时节。 当风夫人在房中痛呼凄叫、别的男人也一定是焦灼万分手忙脚乱时，风鸿骞却正对着一株牡丹悠然出神。那是一株刚刚开花的魏紫，芳华天颜雍容无双，看得风鸿骞连连赞叹:“所谓国色天香风华绝代便是如此。” 侍女匆匆跑来花园里，告诉他夫人为他添了位千金时，他还在念着:若教解语应倾国，任是无情亦动人。 “老爷，夫人为您生了位小姐，还等着您取名呢。”侍女提高了声音叫道。 “啊？”风鸿骞恍然回神，看一眼旁边瞪目的侍女，又看看眼前的牡丹，然后道:“今日这株魏紫也开花了，定是吉兆，生的女儿肯定会和这魏紫一般的美，不如就叫'风紫'。” ah?侍女一愣，未及反应，风鸿骞却已自己醒悟过来。 “唉呀不好。风紫……疯子，不好听。魏紫叫魏紫那是国色天香绝代风华，换成风紫就不好了，等等……风华绝代……风华……风华……可是总有一天会逝去，有了，挽华，去，告诉夫人，小姐的名字就叫'风挽华'。” 风挽华的名字就是那样得来的，她亦没有辜负她父亲为她取这名字的期望，日后果然长成了风华绝代的美人，而她这一生的悲喜似也因她这绝世的风华。 父母皆是才华卓绝的人物，风挽华其聪慧自是不用说，又家学渊博，是以诗词文章琴棋书画那是学一样精一样，小小年纪其才学便以令得许些拜访风鸿骞的学子自愧弗如，人人言道风家又出了个小神童。 风鸿骞虽满腹才学虽名声远扬，但生性疏狂不羁，予钱财权势并无贪好，虽有官员推荐入朝，但他都以“秉性不合”为由一一婉拒，好在风家祖业甚多，风夫人有持家有道，倒不用为生活发愁，日子过得及其的富足优溶。 他已在外游历十数年之久，看尽天下风光，是以成亲后倒不再出门远游，每日里不是与夫人弹琴品曲，便是抱幼女于膝共读诗书，又或者闭门不出潜心著书，再或者于城中四处游赏，与意气相投者痛饮达旦，与陌路相逢者席地座谈，与知己名士书画相斗，与众学子谈经论道…… 如此，便是数年过去。 元恺二十二年，三月。 这一日，风夫人正在书房里教女儿作画，忽然书房的门推开，风鸿骞领着一个男孩进来，说是他收的弟子。 想拜在风鸿骞门下的人自然多，只是风鸿骞从未收过弟子，最多也就是受好友所托去书院给学子们授学一两天。而今忽然间领进一个弟子，不说外人稀罕，便是风夫人亦十分惊奇。 经风鸿骞一番解说才知，这男孩名檀朱雪，母亲亡故后随父亲从兰州迁来的。檀父极擅酿酒，便在城里开着一小酒馆谋生，风鸿骞有一日喝到友人从檀家酒馆买来的一壶“青叶兰生”后大为赞赏，于是亲自再去酒馆买酒。谁知檀父得知风鸿骞的名后，去酒窖里搬出一小坛酒，道这“青叶兰生”他每年仅酿两坛，一坛已卖出，这手中的便是最后一坛，说完了他双手一松，砰的一声酒坛便在地上四分五裂，一时酒香盈店。 风鸿骞当时愣住了，暗想这人即算是不想卖酒给他也用不着这样，明说就是，何必来糟蹋这绝世的佳酿，看着地上的酒水暗暗心疼。檀父摔完了酒后，再一手扯过当时正在店里帮忙的儿子，推到风鸿骞面前，道先生若能收小儿为弟子，那以后每天酿的两坛“青叶兰生”必亲自送去风府。 “你就因为两坛酒便应承了？”风夫人睨一眼丈夫，放下手中画笔，移步上前细看男孩面貌。 “唉呀，夫人，那可不是一般的酒。”风鸿骞忙道，“'青叶兰生'本来酒中极品，而这檀家酿的更是极品中的极品，我能得他两坛酒，反正我赚到了。” “两坛酒就把你收买了，日后来我们家送酒的可就要多了。”风夫人轻轻嗔一句，眼光看着男孩，又赞道:“这孩子的模样可真是生得好。”见他一头半长不短的发没有束起就散在肩上，乌锻似的黑得发亮忍不住伸出手去，谁知男孩却一偏头躲开了，看着风夫人皱起与发一般黑的眉毛，道:“男人头，不能摸。” 这话一出，风鸿骞与夫人不由得都笑了，便是书桌前的风挽华也抚着嘴咯咯笑着。 男孩听着笑声转头看向风挽华，然后道:“你长得可真像一只猪仔。”说完了后再加了一句，“猪仔还不及你。” 六岁的风挽华长得有些过分的珠圆玉润，日后倾国倾城的美貌与风华在那一年还不见丝毫影子，她年纪虽小，可家中来来往往的客人见到她哪一个不是赞她玉雪可爱聪慧非凡，而把她比作一只猪的，却还是第一个，甚至是说她连猪都不如！ 于是，风挽华小姑娘忘记了平日里父母的询询教导，手中那支蘸满墨汁的紫毫便往男孩的方向如同作画般的流畅挥出，一道墨雨便洒落在男孩脸上，顿时——黑发黑眉黑眼又黑脸。 “哈，乌鸦！”风挽华在父母反应过来之前，给予两字评价。 这便是风挽华与檀朱雪的第一次会面。 一个六岁，一个十岁。 本该是“郎骑竹马来，绕床弄青梅”的美好画面，只是他们的第一印象并不甚美好，彼此的评价是“猪”与“乌鸦”。 虽然檀父为儿子拜得名师，期望他有所出息，但檀朱雪本人可没这样的意愿。若是可以，他更愿意把这读书的时间用来和巷子里的伙伴们玩官兵捉强盗，而来读书的唯一好处，大概是他不用再到父亲的酒馆里当小二了，而改成每天上风府报到当学童。 风鸿骞人虽懒散，但对于授学却一贯认真。 自决定收檀朱雪为弟子起，便在书房里又添了一张书桌，与女儿的一左一右摆着。先前已自檀父处得知，檀朱雪只是跟着他学了几个字，不曾正是上过学堂，所以第一天，他取过一本《玉言仁世》打算从启蒙开始，可檀朱雪却是自入书房便趴在书桌上，一副困顿不堪的模样，及不给他这位先生面子。 风鸿骞见此情况倒也不生气，只是把书放下，走至檀朱雪面前，搬一把椅子坐下，问他:“朱雪，你有没有心中很敬佩的人？” 檀朱雪闻言顿扫一脸的困顿，眼睛发亮的道:“有！当然有！就是'兰明王'！我们玩官兵打仗时我就是当'兰明王'的！” “喔。”风鸿骞点点头，“那你知道他是一个什么样的人吗？知晓他生平事迹吗？” “当然知道！”檀朱雪重重点头，“我们兰州人人都知道他！他是前朝七大将之一，被始帝封为丰国之王。他可是大英雄，打起仗来从没败过，而且我们兰州之所以成为兰花之城也是因为兰明王。” “就这些？”风鸿骞挑挑眉头，“那你知道他出生在何地？他活了多少岁？他在什么时候打了第一仗？他在什么时候被封为王？一生经历过些什么事情、有些什么功绩？他喜欢看什么书？他除了会打仗外还会些什么？他为什么会喜欢兰花？他为什么会被成为'兰明王'？他为什么会受人爱戴……等等这些你知道吗？” 檀朱雪被他一连串的问题问住了，半晌后才摇头，脸上已显出沮丧之色。 风鸿骞起身自书架上抽出一本《东书》，翻到《列传·兰明王丰极篇》摊到檀朱雪面前，道:“这上面有他的一生。” “啊？”檀朱雪急不可待地捧过，可左看右看上看下看，半晌后才垂头丧气的道:“这字都不认得。” “喔。”风鸿骞一脸平静的把《东书》抽回，然后将《玉言仁世》递到他面前，“那先认字吧，等字认全了，自然就可以看懂了。” 檀朱雪看着他，眨眨眼睛，然后才磨蹭着接过书。 “而且……”风鸿骞起身，居高临下的看着书桌前的小小少年，“'兰明王'可是个文武全才，这世间他不会的极少。你还当'兰明王'呢，你会什么？” 檀朱雪闻言敝了半天，道:“我会酿酒！”这可是他们家的家传本事，才会走路就跟着他爹学酿酒了。 “喔。”风鸿骞淡淡应着，道:“'青叶兰生'是由兰明王酿出并赐名的。” “啊！”檀朱雪瞪大眼。 风鸿骞一巴掌拍在檀朱雪头上，“小子，你离他还远着呢。” 自那日起，檀朱雪果然是认真学习起来，就为着能早日看懂那本《东书》。 有风鸿骞这样的先生，他自然是进境一日千里。一开始，风鸿骞只是每日教他一个时辰，余者任他自学，自己便继续自己的潇洒去了。只是半年过后，风鸿骞却是每日都教他半天，并且还亲自带着他去了城外山里的茅屋里找一个睡得鼾声震天的人请他教檀朱雪习武。那时候檀朱雪还小，并不知其中意义，只是先生叫他习武便习了。而那一日夜间，风夫人问丈夫，这檀朱雪可是可塑之材？风鸿骞答，或许会是将来的天策上将军。 等到檀朱雪郑重拿起《东书》时，他已不只是看过几本书识得几个字了，风家书房里的书他已基本看全，而风鸿骞教他的亦不只是读书识字。 搬出棋盘时，他说“兰明王当年的棋艺乃是七王之冠。” 檀朱雪乖乖学习下棋，且十分刻苦，以赢风鸿骞为目标，因为风州城里无人是风鸿骞的对手。 教他兵法时，他说“兰明王当年能成不败之王自是因为熟知兵法。” 檀朱雪将《玉言兵书》倒背如流。 教他填词写诗作画，他说“兰明王诗雄、词秀、画奇。” 檀朱雪自也要写慷慨之诗词。 教他曲艺时，他说“兰明王当年一支短笛绝天下。” 檀朱雪自此笛不离身。 ... 上至天文地理，下至合纵连横，一样一样的，风鸿骞将己身所有倾囊相授，自然，他没有忘记自己的女儿，从来书房里两张书桌两个人。 而檀朱雪与风挽华两人，似乎第一面便决定了他们的相处方式。 书房里再次见到时，风挽华睨着檀朱雪道:“朱为红，雪为白，可这红白加在一块，难道这世上还有红色的雪不成。”说出这话之时，她自不会想到日后檀朱雪血洒雪中，便有了那令她悲痛欲绝的红色的雪。而那时，檀朱雪也只是不屑的反驳道:“你以为你的名字就有多好？风挽华……哈，一只小胖猪，还妄想着风华玉貌呢。” 而一路下来，彼此都是暗中较着劲儿。 风挽华看遍家中藏书，那檀朱雪数起风府藏书那也是如数家珍。 檀朱雪可将《玉言兵书》倒背如流，风挽华便可将《凰王诗词》默写一字不差。 风挽华今日写了一首词得风鸿骞赞赏，明日檀朱雪必写一首诗令风鸿骞刮目相看。 今日檀朱雪下棋赢了风挽华两子，明日风挽华必要赢回三子。 风挽华可以琴艺佳绝，檀朱雪必要剑术超群。 檀朱雪作一幅雪中腊梅令风州名士赞叹，风挽华必作一幅梅落雪融让满城人为之惊艳。 ... 檀朱雪对风挽华的称呼，六岁时是“猪”，八岁后是“猴”。 风挽华对檀朱雪的称呼一直两字——乌鸦
