outside the imperial city

When Jing Shuo arrived at the restaurant, it happened to be raining lightly.His hair was not tied up, and his outer clothes were casually dressed, without the appearance of a nobleman at all.However, there is no shortage of frustrated customers like him in this restaurant, and the guys in the store are not surprised.

"Give me ten altars of the strongest wine you have here." Jing Yushuo casually threw out a silver ingot.The store clerk answered and went.

"Ten altars? This guest officer is really good at drinking." The pleasant voice sounded, and Jing Shuo noticed that there was a singer sitting in the corner of this floor, playing the piano with her slender fingers.

Jing Yushuo became interested, Ruifeng rolled his eyes, and said teasingly: "Beauty, let me play a song for you."

Diva laughed and said, "It's hard for Xinfeng to be called a 'beauty' by someone like you."

"So your name is Xinfeng." Jing Lingshuo poured a glass of wine, "Good name."

Xinfeng lowered her eyes and hesitated to speak.Her fingers dexterously hooked the strings, and she made an elegant voice: "The slave family is showing a shame."

After speaking, he sang along with the smooth sound of the piano.

"Wonderful handwriting of Huizhen, Shui Jian's eyes and crimson lips. It is suspected that he was peeping at Song Yu in the past, and his neighbor to the east; only half of his body was exposed on the wall. The past has been bitter, who remembers the embarrassment of Cui Dai? It is a bit hateful, ruthless; It is ruthless and touching! (Note: Quoted from Qin Guan's "Nanxiangzi")"

Her voice was mellow and soft, and there seemed to be a little sorrow hidden in the high and low changes.What a good song "Nanxiangzi".

Jing Lishuo put down his wine glass, laughed softly, and murmured to himself, "Ruthless, even ruthless is touching."

"My lord, the flowers are beautiful and the wine is fragrant," Xin Feng finished singing and sat down opposite him, "Who are you missing?"

Jing Lishuo also poured her a glass of wine, and said, "Miss Xinfeng, who are you missing?"

"Singer girls like us have always been passers-by in other people's lives." Xin Feng said, "What's the impact if you miss someone or not?"

"But you're different," Xin Feng took a sip of the shochu, "A person like you, you can't go anywhere, you don't have to worry about your partner, why hang yourself on a tree, worrying about gain and loss, what you get Is there only one heartache?"

"You're right." Jing Yanshuo smiled wryly, and drank his glass of wine in one gulp, "But I just can't let it go."

once having seen the best, the rest is not worthwhile looking.

If you recognize that person in your heart, you will never regret it in your life.Even if that person speaks sarcastically, even if that person is unmoved, even if he knows in his heart that there are thousands of people in this world who are better than that person, he is willing to spend his whole life waiting just to keep that person in front of his eyes.Weak water is three thousand, just take a scoop to drink, when your heart is moved, you can no longer tolerate others, even if you are already scarred, you still can't help yourself, and you can't bear to let go of that little lovesickness.

Come to think of it, no matter how he refuses, I will love him as before.

Yao Fanglan stroked the Wuhen sword, looking at the rain that was falling harder and harder outside the window, her face became more and more serious.

Make up your mind quickly.If you go to him, you will never be able to say goodbye to him; if you let him go, you will never be able to get closer to him again.

This kind of tepidity has lasted for too long, and if it continues, it may be good for him, but it will be harmful to Jing Shuo.

It has been more than a year.When I think of the past, I feel that this year is very long; but when I think of my future life, I feel that this year is too short.Wouldn't it be too hasty to set a lifetime in one year?

That's all, so what if it's this time of being free and unrestrained?

For 25 years, the name "Yao Fanglan" either lived in the family's expectations, or lived in the flames of revenge, and never lived for a moment for himself.Falling in love with that person may be a gift from God.

In any case, we have to bring people back now.

Yao Fanglan hugged Wuhen, took the oil-paper umbrella, and ran into the rain.

Residents on the street turned off the last lamp. On the huge street, only patrolling officers and soldiers lit two lamps.Yao Fanglan hid Wuhen behind her back, and went up to meet him: "My lords, where can I find a restaurant?"

The two officers and soldiers looked at him for a while and said, "It's so late, do you still want to go out to have fun?"

Yao Zanglan was secretly glad that she was not wearing a white shirt, saluted and said, "It's not that I want to have fun, it's my master who is having fun, and my wife asked me to take him back. But we are not locals, I don't know where the master is going." Already, sir, can you point me in the right direction?"

The two officers and soldiers exchanged glances and pointed to the front: "You just go along this road. At this time, the only one that will open nearby is that one."

"Chaofeng Building."

Yao Fanglan repeated the name, thanked the two officers and soldiers, and was about to run forward.

"Wait," an officer and soldier urged behind him, "There have been a lot of robberies at night recently, you should be careful."

Yao Fanglan had more to worry about than the robbery.Chaofeng Tower is the most famous brothel in the country, what does Jing Shuo do there?

In the middle of the night, the capital also fell asleep.Looking around, only that building is still brightly lit.There were faint laughter, slapstick and loud shouts, and Yao Fanglan couldn't help but hug Wuhenjian tightly.

This is bliss and exuberance created with alcohol.Between drunkenness, dreams and death, people will forget all sufferings and embrace false beauty.But what's the point?No matter how long the dream is, there must be a day when you wake up.

Yao Zanglan lowered her gaze, and wanted to find a place to shelter from the rain beside Chaofeng Tower to wait for Jing Shuo, but saw a familiar figure.

Familiar figure, unfamiliar embarrassment.

"Ah Jing?" Yao Fanglan called out, and took a few steps closer.

Hearing his voice, Jing Lingshuo raised his head.The rain wet his face, making it difficult for him to see the scene in front of him clearly.With the faint light coming from Chaofeng Tower, he saw a vague human figure jumping up and down anxiously.

"Yao Yao," he said silently in his heart, "what are you still doing here? Always give hope after rejection, and make people fall in love with you again and again, it's really vicious."

A few people with daggers surrounded him. Although he didn't bring a saber, it was not a problem to deal with a few gangsters with bare hands.But he doesn't want to move.Unrivaled martial arts can't win a person's heart, so what's the use of winning one more time?

Buy drunk, but not drunk.Jing Lishuo has never resented himself for drinking like he did today.

Yao Zanglan threw Wuhen into the encirclement, but Jing Shuo didn't pick it up.Wuhen fell straight to the ground with a muffled sound.With wet hair sticking to his face, he remained motionless as if dead.

th.Seeing Jing Shuo like this, Yao Fanglan's heart suddenly turned into a huge bottomless pit, and he couldn't stop being afraid.It would be fine if he just despaired of him, if he dared not fall in love with others because of this, Yao Fanglan really had no choice but to apologize with death.

I don't know what those gangsters yelled at Jing Lishuo, seeing that Jing Lishuo didn't respond, one of them stabbed at Jing Lishuo with a dagger.

But it got stuck in an oiled paper umbrella.

"Young people nowadays are becoming more and more violent." Yao Zanglan turned the umbrella around, pulled it out, and blocked him and Jing Lingshuo.

"Who are you?" the little gangster shouted, "We are not afraid of you if we have many people."

"A lot of people?" Yao Fanglan smiled, "Even if you have 100 people, I am not afraid."

"If you want money, you don't have to die," Yao Fanglan kicked hard, and Wuhen flew from the ground into his hands, "After the fight, hurry up and leave, I have something to do."

"Here, take the umbrella for a while, I'll be fine soon." Yao Zanglan handed the umbrella to Jing Lishuo, but the latter still didn't move, staring at him with a pair of Ruifeng eyes dimly.

Is this mad or drunk?It shouldn't be, what about the promise of thousand cups not to get drunk?

Yao Zanglan shook his head, and was about to put the umbrella on the ground for a big fight, but Jing Lishuo waved his sleeves, drew out the Wuhen sword, and blended into the crowd without even looking at him.

Between swords and swords, the sound of someone falling to the ground was heard one after another. When he came back to his senses, Jing Lishuo had knocked out everyone and stood alone in the rain.

Just like the first time we met, he is still the proud and lonely king.

Yao Fanglan walked up to him and handed out the scabbard: "I know you are very angry with me, but now let's—"

Jing Lishuo didn't say anything, stretched out his arms, and hugged Yao Fanglan tightly.Wuhen fell to the ground again.

"Drunk?" Yao Fanglan felt a little strange, "Stupid?"

Jing Shuo still didn't answer him.

Yao Fanglan patted him on the back: "Okay, no matter what kind you are, let me go first, let's go back."

Jing Lishuo remained motionless.

"..."

Yao Fanglan lowered her voice and said, "If you listen to me, I'll kiss you, how about it?"

In fact, he was not sure about saying this.Because he couldn't be sure that after being hurt like that, Jing Lishuo still loved him as before.But when Jing Yanshuo heard this, he let go of his embrace without any hesitation.

Yao Fanglan was stunned, bent down and picked up the Wuhen sword, and took his hand: "Let's go."

Jing Shuo didn't follow him, but looked at him quietly.

"My lord," Yao Fanglan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I know you're not drunk, can you just tell me what you want to do?"

Jing Lishuo didn't answer, but Ruifeng had a look of disappointment in his eyes.

"Okay." Yao Fanglan stood on tiptoe and kissed Jing Lingshuo lightly on the forehead.When his feet fell, his ears were a little red.

"Listen, a kiss, right?" Yao Fanglan took his arm, "Can we go?"

Jing Lishuo put his hand on his forehead, it was still warm there, it was so hot that his heart was about to burst.He rolled his eyes, revealing an incomparably innocent smile.Yao Fanglan laughed so hard that he lost all anger.

But still did not speak.Yao Fanglan thought, you won't play this game with me all night, will you?

Jing Lishuo followed Yao Zanglan on the flooded street, their clothes and shoes were soaked by the rain.A hole was poked in the oiled paper umbrella, so their hair was also wet.

But Jing Shuo was very happy.

It seems that a night long, long ago, you also printed a gentle kiss on the same position.

From then on, my heart belongs to you.
