When Xue Yi came, he came in a carriage lightly, and when he left, he still kept a low profile, not only was there a group of private guards around him to protect him, but also the guards from various provinces in Huainan Province gathered in Yuyao overnight to escort Xue Yi back. Beijing.

Officials from the Governor's Office of the various state capitals inquired about Xue Yi's whereabouts, and before Xue Yi arrived, they all went out of the city to greet him.

On the official road, officials cleared the road in advance, and people in twos and threes stood on both sides of the road and looked at the team in front of them and whispered:

"Whose adult's team is this?"

"I don't know, it's not from our Huainan Road anyway, look, when did our Lord Governor ever ride in such a small carriage..."

Armored soldiers with knives and halberds marched slowly on the outermost periphery. Two teams of private guards carried flags to protect Xueyi's carriage in the center. Liu Yiyi drove the carriage for Xueyi, Xiaobao and Meng Zixuan and the two sat with Xue Yi in the carriage, while Chang'an rode the horse and the carriage went side by side.

Seeing from a distance that the city gate ahead had been cleared from the streets, a group of officials in red and green stood at the gate looking forward to it.

The official of the imperial private guard turned his horse's head and reported to Xue Yi:

"Your Majesty, officials from Fuyang Mansion are here to pick you up."

Xue Yi's voice came in a low voice:

"Into the city."

Chang'an hit the horse, and the time he stayed in the state capitals in the past half month was extremely long. At first, Chang'an didn't understand, but he laughed when he saw Xue Yi borrowing his royal driver to appease the state capitals that were shocked by Xue Yi's drastic killings.In this way, it seems that Xue Yi did not come to Jiangnan specifically for him.

Liu Yu, an official of Fuyang Mansion, knew that Xue Yi didn't like extravagant temperament, so he repaired his own mansion as Xue Yi's temporary residence, and moved his family to live in the temple in the east of the city. Officials and Xueyi inspect the embankment of the Fuchun River.

Chang'an didn't want to join in the fun, took the wine gourd and was about to go out to visit a good place to sell wine in Fuyang City, but was grabbed by Xiaobao who was guarding the door in advance.

Xiaobao followed Meng Zixuan, he smiled and said to Changan:

"Master, please be sure to accompany me."

Changan frowned:

"I'm going to join in the fun."

Little Treasure was triumphant:

"How can we easily guess what Master is thinking?"

Changan pinched Xiaobao's face:

"Smooter."

Among the accompanying crowd, Xiaobao resumed his Changshan county king's attire, Liu Yiyi was also dressed as a first-rank female official, but Chang'an's white clothes stood out among the mighty group of officials.

Liu Yu raised his head and saw Chang An while saluting to Xue Yi, his eyes widened for a moment:

"This...this....Ding Wang Ni...His Royal Highness?" The word "Ni Chen" was about to come out when Xue Yi who was not far away hurriedly changed his words.

Immediately in the team, there was a palace censor who came out to impeach Liu Yujun for his disrespect.

Chang An's complexion was very unattractive from the beginning, and now his face is even darker.

After all, he is a criminal minister, not to mention that he is a rebellious minister who has been dead for a long time. What is going on now that he appears by Xue Yi's side, he bows to Xue Yi and is about to retreat.

"Wait." Xue Yi stopped Chang'an.

In front of all the officials of Fuyang Mansion, he smiled and said:

"This is my eighteenth brother Chang'an, there is no need to step down."

Over the years, the people who stood in the ruling position in the past have also been replaced by several batches. There are many people here who have only vaguely heard the name of King Ding and know that King Ding was exiled for thousands of miles because of treason when Xueyi ascended the throne. have no idea.

Some people even don't know who King Ding is, and the story of killing the barbarians with a long spear is rarely remembered.

Chang An was taken aback, and stood behind Xue Yi with his eyebrows closed.

If Xueyi told everyone that he was King Ding, he would turn around and leave, but what he said was that he was his eighteenth younger brother, and he was still his eighteenth younger brother no matter what.

Inspecting the river embankment during the day, interviewing important officials of Fuyang Mansion one by one in the afternoon, and giving a banquet at night, Chang'an was tied by Xue Yi's side, and Xue Yi couldn't rest even if Xue Yi didn't rest.

After the banquet, Xiaobao got drunk and was sent back to rest by Meng Zixuan. Liu Yiyi hadn't come back because she attended the Fuyang mansion's women's banquet, and Xueyi had only Chang'an to accompany him in the dark night to deal with the papers accumulated in the previous days.

"Why don't you take Wei Jie with you?" Chang An made tea for Xue Yi.

Xue Yi rubbed her temples and let out a rare sigh:

"It's the time when I am employing people. There are too few people around me, and Wei Jie is inseparable from the palace." Such exhaustion and helplessness were nakedly exposed to Chang An.

Somehow Chang'an said:

"The accumulation of hundreds of years in the world is not only decay and dilapidation, but also talent and heritage. You have killed too many people, so you have the current predicament."

Xue Yi raised his eyes, he seemed to like Chang An talking to him so straightforwardly:

"Do you still remember Taifu Wei? He is knowledgeable, but because of his poor family, he has repeatedly participated in the selection of officials and can only be rated as a low-ranking official. A literati can only vote for the army. In the end, Taifu Wei was praised by others after going through hardships. But in my opinion, this is the tragedy of a country. .”

"There are many roads to change, but you chose the bloodiest one." Chang'an looked at Xue Yi's eyes without moving.

"Chang'an, do you know that when I was the crown prince, I knew that my ascension to the throne would be an opportunity, an opportunity to promote fair selection of scholars in the country.

We learned a lot of truths when we were young. The history books tell us that we don’t want to be a puppet, and we don’t want to let the people of the country only know that there is Bird Clothes Lane but not that there is Wei Palace. "Such a serious and rigid topic did not make Xueyi feel a little uncomfortable. He was still sitting on the seat, holding the tea that Chang'an poured for him, and his tone was like spring wind and rain.

"I am thankful to you. Without you making the aristocratic family dependent and making them believe that they are safe, and without my breaking the boat, it would be a different situation now. I will be like the father, no matter how wise and powerful he is, he still needs to contain the aristocratic family while at the same time We need to win over. Live your life hard and pitifully." Xue Yi talked about Chang'an, her eyes became softer, and she slowly stood up and walked towards Chang'an.

Chang'an listened to Xue Yi's words, his eyes lingered on Xue Yi's face, and his fear of Xue Yi became deeper and deeper in his heart. Looking at Xue Yi's face that was the same as before, he gradually felt that there was something different, but he still couldn't figure it out. come out.

"Chang'an, I know that I may still have a chance in the future, but Chang'an, I would rather temporarily cause a country to experience short-term suffering than cause future troubles. I don't want to leave a future war for the ambitious people of Great Wei. A country riddled with holes." Xue Yi's eyes were serious and persistent, even a little terrifyingly persistent.

As soon as Xue Yi finished speaking, Chang An's eyes suddenly became clear.

When Xue Yi was young, he pursed his lips and looked low. When Xue Yi was young, he tilted his head and looked at him blankly. It was the first time Xue Yi ate candied haws and sugar dregs got on his mouth. There are many, many expressions of Yiyin's intolerance, but there is no time like now when even the smile seems to be the same at any time.

After so long, after so many years, he seemed to wake up just now, and suddenly realized that Xue Yi had really changed, was really different from the boy he used to be.

The anger contained in the hatred all these years and the pain of feeling abandoned by Xue Yi are not as good as his fear at the moment. If Xue Yi is not Xue Yi, then he is still not him.

His hands trembled uncontrollably, his eyes turned red in an instant, he walked up to Xue Yi and took Xue Yi's hand, and covered Xue Yi's eyes with his palm, Xue Yi's skin was very cold, and it entered Chang'an's heart:

"Xueyi, what's wrong with you?"

Xue Yi froze, not understanding what Chang An meant:

"what?"

Changan closed his eyes to stop the tears that were about to burst out:

"You close your eyes, don't think about anything, rest for a while, rest for a while."

Xue Yi tilted her head, and then obediently closed her eyes as Chang An said, the eyelashes fell in Chang An's hands like moths flapping their feathers, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"Chang'an, are you scared?" Xue Yi asked Chang'an.

Chang An hugged Xue Yi's chest tightly, covered Xue Yi's eyes, buried his head into Xue Yi's neck, and nodded slightly.

Chang'an's nod made Xueyi seem to have instantly unloaded all the burdens that had been on his shoulders for so many years, and his heart became more relaxed. He clenched Chang'an's hand covering his eyes, feeling the dampness in the neck, and even his heart. became hot, he said in a low voice:

"Don't go."

Chang An hugged Xue Yi tightly and nodded vigorously against Xue Yi's shoulder, Xue Yi laughed out loud, tears wet Chang An's palm.

"Chang'an..." Xue Yi called out Chang'an's name.

"...I want you." As soon as Xue Yi finished speaking, Chang An let go of Xue Yi's arms.

Xue Yi's heart tightened and she was about to pull Chang'an, but Chang'an lifted the curtain of the inner hall and put her on the bed, followed by familiar breathing and familiar kisses.

Fingers across Chang'an's bearded chin and caressed Chang'an's face emotionally, Chang'an shook his hand and gently kissed his palm.

After Chang'an untied Xue Yi's clothes and touched the unhealed sword wound on Xue Yi's chest, Xue Yi was afraid that he would still hate him, and gently touched the old wound on Chang'an's chest:

"Each of us with one sword is considered even."

Changan kissed Xueyi's neck with moist eyes:

"No, I will still hate you, and I will still want to kill you."

After hearing this, Xue Yi tilted her head and looked at Chang An, with reluctance in her eyes.

The throne and great responsibilities are monsters that can distort human nature. It erodes the young Xueyi little by little, turning him into a person who can sacrifice everything for the overall situation, even himself.

Chang'an was slightly relieved when he saw that he finally had a different expression than usual. He put one arm around Xue Yi's waist, opened Xue Yi's leg with the other hand, stroked gently, and smiled and sucked Xue Yi in.

Xue Yi lost his mind for a moment, leaned back his neck and rubbed his hands into Chang An's hair, looking at the bright yellow curtain above his head, his mind began to lose consciousness, and he even felt that everything in front of him was a dream he had been asking for for many years .

Until Chang'an entered, Xue Yi climbed onto Chang'an's neck and pulled Chang'an's lips towards his.

Late at night, Chang'an had already fallen asleep, Xue Yi gently pulled away Chang'an's hand that was tightly around his waist, and put a string of moistened white beads on Chang'an's hand.

The next day, Liu Yiyi brought someone to wait for Xue Yi to get up, opened the door and was startled by the two figures on the bed, her mouth was wide open, and she hurriedly backed out to close the door.

Chang'an had already woken up after the rooster crowed for the first time, seeing Xue Yi still asleep in his arms, he was reluctant to wake him up, raised his hand and gently touched the corner of Xue Yi's lips, waiting to see clearly the string of beads on his wrist. Surprised.

This string of beads was sent by Xue Yi when he went to war, and was discarded by Chang'an when he was exiled, and now it is back in Chang'an's hands.

Sunshine shone into the room through the window paper, not only Liu Yiyi but also Xiaobao and Meng Zixuan were waiting outside Xueyi's window.

Xiaobao asked Liu Yiyi:

"Master, why did you get up so late today?"

Liu Yiyi turned her head and looked at him expressionlessly.

Xiaobao's clever head opened up very quickly, and the corners of his mouth became bigger and bigger.

Meng Zixuan looked dull.

Xiao Bao put on Meng Zixuan's shoulder and looked like someone who came over:

"You are still young, and you don't understand adults."

Meng Zixuan raised his eyebrows, obviously unconvinced and asked:

"You understand?"

Xiaobao smiled.

Liu Yiyi couldn't stand it anymore and quietly came to Xueyi's window to remind her in a low voice:

"Your Majesty, the officials of Fuyang Mansion have arrived."

Xue Yi in Chang'an's arms frowned slightly, and slowly opened his eyes. After seeing Chang'an next to him, his eyes lit up, and he hugged Chang'an's neck without speaking.

Chang An smiled lowly and hugged him back, and kissed behind his ear.
