On the third day, Shi Wanyue went to work at the Censorate, and Wen Zhimiao and He Yuanyao made an appointment to go archery together.

While they were playing, Chu Qiu suddenly sent some letters over. There were three letters in total, from Duan Jiling, Bian Ruitong, and Duan Yunting.

Duan Jiling said that she wanted to come to Tianqi to play, so Bian Ruitong and Duan Yunting both sent letters hoping that they could take care of Duan Jiling.

After He Yuanyao finished reading the letter, she suddenly looked at Wen Zhimiao: "Miaomiao, do you feel something strange?"

"Tongtong?" Wen Zhimiao asked her softly.

He Yuanyao nodded slightly.

"She probably doesn't have many holidays, but she knows Lingling very well. It's as if she goes to see Lingling every time she has a holiday."

"Friends." Wen Zhimiao wiped the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief.

His eyes were still on Bian Ruitong's letter. Wen Zhimiao had some understanding of her childhood friend. She was not as sensitive to words as Yun Zhou, but she was not insensitive either.

It was not difficult to tell from the lines of words that Bian Ruitong had been deliberating for a long time, hiding all his little thoughts in them and saying nothing.

But the burning feelings can never be hidden.

In the past, Wen Zhimiao and He Yuanyao would also play and have fun with her. In Bian Ruitong's letters, she also wrote about many moments of playing together with Duan Jiling. The joy revealed between the lines could not be hidden.

"Are we really just friends?" He Yuanyao didn't know why, but it seemed like she had become much smarter after returning to Yunjing.

Wen Zhimiao smiled bitterly: "What else? I don't know, I just hope it's fake."

If she didn't consider anything else, Wen Zhimiao would think it was normal for Bian Ruitong to like Duan Jiling, and it was even normal for them to like each other.

If she had to describe Duan Jiling, Wen Zhimiao would probably use a fox in the mountains to describe her: lively, cute, smart, close to nature, and with an interesting soul.

These are the points that perfectly match Bian Ruitong.

There is resonance between them.

Although Bian Ruitong and He Yuanyao are both lively and noisy, they still have many differences.

The animalistic description is probably that He Yuanyao is a wolf or tiger running on the grassland, while Bian Ruitong is a fish in the sea. The deer in the mountains are less aggressive.

So he and Duan Jiling are a natural fit.

She has a natural sunshine in her, which is exactly the warmth that Duan Jiling longs for.

Duan Jiling used to say that he liked her, but later Wen Zhimiao thought about it and realized that Duan Jiling didn’t like her, but just the little bit of warmth in her that she had never experienced.

Wen Zhimiao always felt that the warmth in her was just like a small flame, which would only warm a small number of people around her, those she cared about.

But Bian Ruitong is different, she is really a little sun.

He is the little sun that Duan Jiling has been running towards all his life.

If one puts aside other things like their identities and bodies, Wen Zhimiao would feel that they were a perfect match in this world, a marriage as perfect as Qi Linglang and Zheng Shu.

But the world is unpredictable, and no one knows whether they can be perfect.

"But Lingling..."

"She knows." Wen Zhimiao looked at He Yuanyao. She knew it before she fell in love.

He Yuanyao was speechless for a moment. Yes, Bian Ruitong knew it very well, just as she did.

With a sigh, He Yuanyao sat down next to Wen Zhimiao: "I'm suddenly a little jealous of you. How can you be so successful?"

Wen Zhimiao:......

Well, that can't be refuted.

"Then why didn't she tell us? Doesn't she trust us?" He Yuanyao muttered.

Wen Zhimiao looked at her and said, "You like my sister. Have you told her?"

"It's impossible, what's there to say..." He Yuanyao said and looked at Wen Zhimiao with resentment.

"So, it's the same." Wen Zhimiao hugged his bow and lay back: "Alas~"

She looked at the sky with a dazed look in her eyes.

"I'm ready to go to war with Lu Jin." Wen Zhimiao suddenly sat up again.

"Ah? So sudden?" He Yuanyao asked in surprise.

"I thought you would take a long time to prepare for anything." He Yuanyao said in surprise.

Wen Zhimiao laughed: "How can there be so many perfect preparations?"

"But weren't you planning to cooperate with Lu Jin before the New Year?" He Yuanyao scratched her head. She had been isolated for so long and couldn't keep up with the ideas of Wen Zhimiao and the others.

Wen Zhimiao put a hand on her shoulder: "I thought so before the New Year. At that time, I felt that Lu Jin was still quite peaceful for the time being, and they were still fighting among themselves. Of course, chaos would be a good thing for me."

"It's different now? What happened to Chen Yu and Dama?" He Yuanyao remembered that Wen Zhimiao had not told her about what happened that day yet.

"Because before the Lunar New Year, Dama was very friendly and wanted to cooperate with me. She hoped that I would support her to take the position. The conditions she gave were to open the trade route to the west and reduce the toll."

He Yuanyao thought seriously for a long time, and suddenly said: "Isn't this a bit too insincere?"

"right."

"Of course this is not what I want. Isn't opening up the trade route a basic requirement? Is this considered a benefit? The one who benefits the most from opening up the trade route is not Tianqi but Lujin."

"Then what do you want? I can't think of that." He Yuanyao asked in a low voice.

"If it were you, what would you want?" Wen Zhimiao was curious about what He Yuanyao wanted.

"Those are of course the cities that Lu Jin seized during the chaos. That's the rich land in the west, with plains and rivers rich in products. After those cities were taken back, the inland cities in the west had more supplies." He Yuanyao said as a matter of course.

"Yes, so I want it too." Wen Zhimiao looked at He Yuanyao with a smile.

"But now Dama doesn't want to cooperate?" He Yuanyao asked.

"Even if you want to cooperate, you won't give me this." Wen Zhimiao replied with a smile.

He Yuanyao nudged Wen Zhimiao with her elbow and said, "I'll go and knock it down for you."

"Really?"

"Really, as long as you let me go." He Yuanyao said seriously.

Wen Zhimiao touched his chin, then looked at He Yuanyao seriously: "No kidding, if you say so, I really considered it."

"Who is kidding you? Who doesn't want to conquer the Wolf's Lair?" He Yuanyao was not kidding.

"Do you know how Fenglangjuxu came about?"

"I don't know, yeah, how did it come about?"

Wen Zhimiao once again felt the fact that this world evolved from the world of fiction.

It’s not that I’m worried about whether it’s true or not, I just think about it simply.

There is no Huo Qubing in this world, but there is Fenglangjuxu, the poems of Li Bai and Du Fu, and the ancient books of ancient sages.

"Then let you go. If I want to go too, remember to protect me." Wen Zhimiao said with a smile.

"Why do you want to go? You are the prince. As a prince, you have to go to the battlefield in person. Aren't all the generals of my Tianqi dead?" He Yuanyao still couldn't understand.

"Because some people don't want to fight, and because the generals may indeed be dead, who knows."

Wen Zhimiao put his hands on the ground and said, "Maybe I will go, maybe I won't."

"If you go, I will definitely protect you."

He Yuanyao looked at Wen Zhimiao with a bright smile.
