landslide

?As soon as the morning passed, Huai Jun went to Zheng's mansion to deal with Taifu Zheng's affairs.

At this time, Zheng's mansion is a lifeless white, and because of the loss of a master, it will inevitably become deserted, and even the wind seeps into a sense of bleakness.

Seeing Huai Jun approaching, the old housekeeper who was over seventy years old immediately stepped forward and bowed: "The villain sees His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"Uncle Liu, you don't need to be too polite." Huai Jun helped Uncle Liu up, "How is grandpa's funeral going?"

"It's all done according to the master's wishes. He doesn't want to be too extravagant. Everything should be kept simple." Speaking of this, Uncle Liu raised his old hand and wiped away the tears that were about to flow from the corners of his eyes.

This Uncle Liu has been taking care of Mrs. Zheng since he was young, and the relationship between them cannot be explained clearly with a sentence of master and servant. If you really want to say it, they are more like a pair of old friends. Feel sad?

What Uncle Liu has to do now is to do the last thing Zheng Taifu left him.

He also said: "Now wait for Young Master Biao to come back from Nanman. His last wish is for His Highness and Young Master Biao to accompany him on the last part of the journey."

"Well, I see." Huai Jun turned around and replied, he understood Taifu Zheng's thoughts, and also understood Taifu Zheng's last wish.

He promised in his heart, Grandpa, Jun'er will definitely live up to your expectations.

He followed Uncle Liu to inspect Zheng's mansion again. At this time, there were only two servants left in Zheng's mansion who had served Taifu Zheng for a long time, and the rest were distributed some money according to Taifu Zheng's wishes, and then sent them back to their hometowns.

Huai Jun called Uncle Liu and the two elderly servants over: "When grandpa's funeral is settled, you can go back to your hometown."

Uncle Liu met face to face with the old servant. They had spent most of their lives in Zheng's mansion. Their relatives in the countryside had been gone for a long time, and they had no children. I don't know where to go back.

"Your Highness..." Uncle Liu hesitated.

"Uncle Liu, I understand that if you don't want to go back to your hometown, you can die in Zheng's residence." Huai Jun looked at the blue sky, when a golden swallowtail butterfly flew over and landed on his shoulder.He said: "Grandpa is a very emotional person, I will take care of you on behalf of Grandpa until the end of your life."

As soon as the words fell, the butterfly flew away again, and Huai Jun's sight followed the butterfly all the way up.

After leaving Zheng's mansion, Huai Jun came to Yongning Temple in a daze.

When the people in the temple saw Huai Jun, they just nodded and smiled at him. This was the rule set by Huai Jun. He didn't want his arrival to disturb the tranquility of the temple.

As usual, he came to Concubine Jun's grave in the western suburbs, and at this time there were two magnolia flowers placed in front of Concubine Jun's grave, causing waves in Huai Jun's heart that had become dead due to grief.

He murmured: "Queen, Pu'er is here, isn't she? Pu'er has come to see you, isn't she?..."

What responded to him was the sound of Xiao in the air, and he said pleasantly: "Mother, listen, Pu'er has indeed come to see you, and he still has a heart for you." He paused, and then said: "How can he Maybe I have no heart for you? Mother, Puer is unwilling to stay with me, because he hasn't forgiven me yet?" He thought for a while, and there was more firmness in his words: "Now you and grandpa are gone , I can't let Pu'er leave me again, mother, you can let Pu'er stay by my side, okay?"

He knew that Concubine Jun had knowledge under the spring, and would definitely bless him and Chen Pu.

However, he was wrong. Concubine Jun always just hoped that he would "not be attached", but he violated her last wish and went further and further away, and he did not know when he would wake up.

As if encouraged by his mother, Huai Jun walked towards Chen Pu again.

At that time Chen Pu was standing by the lake, under the same willow tree.

After returning to the capital from Yangzhou, Chen Pu thought that he should come to see Concubine Jun, so he brought two magnolia flowers that Concubine Jun loved most.

At that time, he stood in front of Concubine Jun's grave and said, "Ma'am, Pu'er has come to see you. I have lived in Yangzhou for three years and have had a good time. Ma'am, will you blame me for leaving and not taking good care of Huaijun? "

He couldn't get the answer, the answer he wanted was in his heart, and finally he said: "My lady, I'm sorry, but I will still leave later."

After all, after standing in front of the grave for a while, he came to the lake just like the old days, and sang the old songs with the jade screen flute.

In the middle of the song, someone suddenly hugged him from behind, it was intimate, familiar, yet a little strange.

His fingers became stiff, and he didn't breathe out again, and the unfinished song was abruptly stopped.He was a little flustered at first, then he became stunned, and then bit by bit, sadness crawled into his heart like ants.

"Your Highness, you don't want this scene to be seen by others."

Huai Jun listened to this warning but did not let go. He suddenly had a thought, even if someone finds out, it doesn't matter, as long as Chen Pu is willing to stay in his arms, he is willing to lose everything.

But such thoughts only linger in his mind for a moment, but at this moment his heart is still fragile, he longs for comfort from Chen Pu, he said softly: "Let me hug you for a while, it will be fine in a while."

"You and I……"

"Pu'er, grandpa has gone."

The cool wind disturbed the calm lake surface, causing a little ripple.

After these words, Chen Pu, who was still struggling, didn't move at all, letting Huai Jun hug him.

He suddenly remembered that day three years ago, also in Yongning Temple, when Huai Jun lost his favorite relative, and at that time he stood by Huai Jun's side without hesitation, because he couldn't bear Huai Jun to be sad.

Now that Huai Jun has lost his family again, he is longing for his comfort, but Chen Pu is reluctant to push him away.

However, he knew that Huai Jun was no longer the lonely Huai Jun, but how could he not understand the deep love between the two?

What are they doing these days?Why do they both use the sharp edge of emotion to hurt each other severely?But their relationship has become too complicated, how could he not be cruel and pick up the ax to chop it off?

He ordered himself not to get bogged down in these chaotic and contradictory thoughts anymore, now Huai Jun just wants a comforting hug, it doesn't matter if he doesn't push him away.

Suddenly there was a series of footsteps approaching, Huai Jun immediately let go of Chen Pu sensitively.

It wasn't until the series of footsteps walked away that he anxiously explained to the person standing stiffly in front: "Pu'er, I..."

Huai Jun's reasons were so bad that Chen Pu got tired of hearing them.

Frankly speaking, after being pushed away by his lover several times, Chen Pu really didn't mind, why not he has always understood Huai Jun's scruples.

He turned his head and comforted Huai Jun: "The deceased is gone, don't be too sad."

Seeing that Chen Pu didn't mean to blame him at all, his heart fluttered, and he couldn't help thinking wildly, could it be that Chen Pu didn't care about him anymore, that's why he was so indifferent?

He won't believe in this arbitrariness, he won't believe that Chen Pu doesn't care about him anymore!

He lowered his eyes and said sadly: "The queen mother has left, and now even grandpa has gone, and even you have to leave, Pu'er, do you want me to be left alone?"

"You won't be left alone, Huai Jun."

"There are only two people I care about most in my life." Although he made this sad look on purpose, what he said was sincere: "It's better to have more of them than to be alone."

Seeing Huai Jun's trick to keep him, Chen Pu sighed unconsciously: "I know you are in a bad mood now, let's not argue about it."

"Then you stay here with me for a while, okay?" Huai Jun looked at Chen Pu tentatively, and said emphatically, "Just for a while."

Originally, Chen Pu wanted to say forcefully - Huai Jun, you should find the princess to accompany you.

But when he saw Huai Jun's sad appearance, he softly took back the words that came to his lips, and in his heart he still had a slight desire to have this "moment" with Huai Jun.

He nodded, and then walked side by side with Huai Jun by the lake, but they didn't talk much along the way, and walked in silence most of the time.

But for them, it was the most satisfying moment in three years.

It's just that Chen Pu thought in his heart, this moment is like a dream, he greedily gave himself a dream, and he will wake up soon.

Huai Jun thought so, and he would follow Chen Pu in the future.

The sky was getting red, it seemed that the birds were returning to their nests, and there were more chaotic birds singing by the lake, as if to remind the two of them that they had woken up from the dream and it was time to go back.

So Chen Pu stopped in his tracks, "It's time to go back."

"Well, let's go together."

After waking up from the dream, Chen Pu woke up from the greed at that moment, and he rejected Huai Jun's words: "I'll leave later, you go back first." He added cruelly: "The princess is waiting for you .”

The birdsong became more and more noisy, as if separating the distance between the two people.

Not wanting to spoil the atmosphere of the previous moment, Huai Jun followed Chen Pu's words and left.

He walked a few steps, then turned back to stare at Chen Pu, and said deeply: "I'm waiting for you too." After finishing speaking, he left immediately, he didn't want Chen Pu to reject him, he had had enough Chen Pu rejected him!

When Huai Jun left, Chen Pu silently turned his head away, looking at the sunset and dusk by the lakeside.He picked up the flute again, put it to his lips, and played again.

In Renfu Palace, as Chen Pu said, there is that princess who is waiting for Huai Jun to come back.

The princess looked at the closed door uneasily, waiting for the person she cared about to open the door to come in, but she waited for almost an hour, and every time the person who came in was not Huai Jun.

Her head started to ache, and she remembered the words whispered by the person next to her pillow last night——Puer, you are back, Puer, let’s start again... As a result, she went to Zheng’s mansion today, intending to see if there was any... Where can I help, only to find that her husband is no longer in the Zheng residence.

Her husband is not in the Zheng residence, nor has he returned to the palace, so where has he gone?

Most of the women in the world are suspicious, and she is no exception. When she looked at the closed door, she could imagine that her husband was standing outside the door intimately with the man named Pu'er.

She could even close her eyes and imagine how that Pu'er looked at her with mocking or showing off eyes. She had to let the fire of jealousy burn in her heart, but she couldn't extinguish it!

When she was about to wait, the door was pushed open, and the person who came in was the only one who could extinguish the fire that burned in her chest and made her extremely sad.

"Your Highness." She forced a smile.

"Jing'er hasn't eaten dinner yet?" Huai Jun asked thoughtfully, and he stepped forward to hold Dong Jing's hand again, and said softly, "Even if you eat, stay with me."

Almost without any effort, he extinguished all the jealousy in her heart, just like back then when he didn't have to do anything at all, she fell in love with him at first sight, and she was willing to stay in this palace ever since!

The two ate their meals facing each other, Huai Jun habitually took the food into the bowl for her, and the maid who was serving beside her couldn't help but envy their love in their hearts.

Everyone in the palace knew that the relationship between the prince and the princess was very good, so good that even Dong Jing believed that he was Huai Jun's favorite person.

Thinking of Pu'er, Dong Jing's food became tasteless, she hesitated for a while, and said tentatively: "This afternoon, my concubine has been to Zheng's residence."

Huai Jun's heart skipped a beat, but he said calmly: "I went to Yongning Temple after staying in Zheng's residence for a while, next time you tell me first, then we can go together."

There was no explanation, nor did it seem like a cover-up, Dong Jing's nervous heart relaxed.

After dinner, Huai Jun sat alone in the library.

He opened the letter sent by the desk in the morning and afternoon, and there were only four words in the letter - Shangjing Road.

Knowing this, Huai Jun immediately picked up the sheepskin map on the case, and estimated the waterway distance from Nanban. Soon, very soon, he will be in power, and then he will never let go of Chen Pu!

After the collapse of the mountain, there will be both the fish and the bear's paw!
