The wind blows the plum blossoms over Guanshan

On the outskirts of Longcheng, the Spring Breeze Restaurant.Chang Sheng held the wine jar in his arms, drank one cup after another, getting drunk.

In fact, he should have expected such a day.Just like what his father said, he and Murong Zhaohui's identities are not equal at all, they are not suitable, not suitable at all.Either he would give in and watch Murong Zhaohui get along with other women, while he would be a shady lover and hide in hiding for the rest of his life; or he would leave and not go would only add to the sadness.It was impossible for Murong Zhaohui to sacrifice so much for him.

But when it came to such a day, he found that he couldn't bear it at all, he didn't know what he was, what he was in his heart.He cares about him so much, but does he care about himself that much?If he had known this, he should have given up everything after Murong Zhaohui won the world and lived his happy life as a knight-errant.Now it's like this, it's purely self-inflicted.Changsheng laughed at himself, and the corners of his eyes were a little moist.

"Guest officer, the shop is closing soon, don't you...should you go back?" Xiao Er tentatively asked Chang Sheng, who was lying drunk on the table. "No,... I won't go back..." Chang Sheng spoke drunkenly. "Why don't you go back? The shop is closing soon." Xiao Er persuaded, "If you are really dizzy, I will pack up your things first and call you later, so please don't drink any more." gone."

Xiao Er shook his head, turned around and went downstairs, when a few quack-like people saw Chang Sheng dressed brightly and one of them was drunk, they became malicious, trying to get some money from him.A man went over and pushed Chang Sheng, and seeing that he didn't respond, he turned him over and reached for his purse.Changsheng drunkenly opened his eyes, saw someone taking his things but couldn't move, his eyes half-opened weakly.

One of them teased and said: "Oh, I don't know which handsome son it is, he was so drunk in the middle of the night, he must have been hurt by love, haha..." Several people laughed for a while, and Chang Sheng heard the word "sickness". Thinking of what happened that day, he only felt that the embarrassing wound was torn open bloody, and the pain made him uncomfortable. "Nonsense...you are talking nonsense...give it back..." He stretched out his hand to grab it, but only caught the tassel of the purse, and then dropped his hand weakly, helpless.

A few quacks thought it was amusing and deliberately teased him, but pushed him to the ground with one hand, laughing and laughing.Changsheng was so drunk that he didn't know what was going on, he raised his eyes and closed them again.A stone hit in the darkness and hit a quack on the right shoulder.The man turned his head and saw no one behind him, he said angrily, "Who hit me just now?"

Another stone hit, this time with much greater force than last time, piercing through the forearm of one of them, the man covered the wound with his hand and screamed like a pig, and blood gushed out instantly.The group of people were all dumbfounded, knowing that they had offended the master, they hurried downstairs and disappeared.Chang Sheng squinted his eyes and looked up, only to see a man in black walking towards him, with a pattern of white plums rusted on his collar.He blinked his eyes and tried to look, but the figures changed from one to two.

"Young Master Changsheng, you are drunk." Li Qing said.

"Oh... who are you..." Changsheng mumbled, struggled twice, and fell asleep lying on the ground.Li Qing helped him up with one hand, left the money for the wine on the table, turned and walked towards the night.

It was already afternoon when Changsheng woke up. He looked at the unfamiliar layout in the room, sat up, and was surrounded by a completely unfamiliar environment.He opened the window, and two or three pedestrians hurried past outside the window.After careful identification, he felt that this place should be an inn on the outskirts of Longcheng.He couldn't remember what happened yesterday, but he remembered that he was clearly drinking, why did he come here for no reason?He walked downstairs quickly, and the old shopkeeper, who was about half a century old, was counting his abacus at the counter.

"Guest officer, you're awake, do you want to check out?" the shopkeeper asked with a smile.

Chang Sheng nodded: "Shopkeeper, who sent me here yesterday?"

"I don't know much about this. I heard from Xiao Er that someone sent the guest officer to the door of the inn and put money in it. As for what that person looks like, Xiao Er didn't see it either."

Chang Sheng heard something strange, thanked the shopkeeper and went out.He was wandering around, not wanting to go home or meet the man.He really wanted to leave, but couldn't let go.

At dusk, the Chinese lanterns come on.Changsheng sat down by the river, fiddled with the willow branches hanging on the bank.

He kept an eye out, just now when he was walking around the streets, he deliberately walked very fast, and he really realized that there was someone following behind him.He didn't know who he was, but judging from yesterday's situation, it seemed that that person would show up to help him when he needed it.Maybe that person was there long ago, but he didn't pay much attention to it, so he never noticed it.

This is the time when Changsheng is sensitive. When a person is sensitive, he thinks everything is bad.He probably already guessed who sent the people who followed him. Did he care about sending people to follow him or did he not trust him?Changsheng suddenly used lightness kung fu like a pique, and headed towards the dangerous mountains on the outskirts of the city.The faster he is, the people who follow him will naturally speed up in order to keep up.He flew to the corner, stopped, and waited like a rabbit.After a while, a black shadow followed quietly, and Chang Sheng quickly put a dagger at his throat.

The man was dressed in black with a pattern of white plums embroidered on the collar.The face is a very ordinary face, without any special features.

"It's you?" Chang Sheng recognized Li Qing and retracted the dagger into its sheath. "He sent you here?"

Li Qing nodded.

"He asked you to help me?" Changsheng thought about it, and suddenly felt that this should happen more than once, and said: "You followed me before?"

"Young Master Changsheng, although the weather is warm now, but the wind is strong at night, it is better for you not to come to such a desolate place." Li Qing replied evasively.

"answer me!"

Li Qing remained silent.

The more Changsheng thought about it, the more he felt silted up in his heart: "Is he doing this for my own good or to prevent me?"

Li Qingdao: "Young Master Changsheng, please don't make wild guesses. Your Majesty feels that there is a reason for His Majesty to do so."

"Go back, don't follow me in the future, nothing will happen to me. I will request an order to go back to Guanshan in a few days. I should have stayed there and not come back." Changsheng put the dagger back in his sleeve and walked out go.The mountain wind blew up the moon-white clothes, Li Qing only felt that the back was full of loneliness.

Chaotang, Jinluandian, civil and military officials are listed.Master Li came out and said, "Your Majesty, the Quanrong Kingdom recently sent a letter of peace requesting a truce. I would like to ask Your Majesty, how should this matter be handled?" Murong Zhaohui nodded slightly: "It is unprecedented for Quanrong to take the initiative to seek peace. Does the other party have any conditions?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, Quan Rong promised not to take the initiative to invade the country of Yan within 20 years, but right now the country is in chaos and there is a shortage of supplies, so I implore our country to provide a certain amount of assistance."

"It's so deceiving! The dog army burned, killed and looted at the border of Yan State, and now they are defeated and pay compensation, and they want to buy things. It's really abominable!" General Wu said this, and many ministers were immediately enraged. They all talked about Quan Rong.At this time Taiwei Sun He took a step forward and said: "I think that it is not impossible to meet the conditions of Quan Rong." As soon as these words came out, the officials were in an uproar.Master Wu was so excited that his gray beard was trembling: "Master Sun, you are betraying your country!"

"My dear friends, please be safe and don't be impatient. I also ask Mr. Sun to speak clearly."

"Your Majesty, this is the most chaotic time in the Quan Rong country. Our help in this way will benefit the future diplomatic relations between the two countries. Naturally, our country cannot suffer too much in this matter. The conditions offered by Quan Rong are still We need to discuss in detail. Now that Quan Rong is short of supplies and has suffered a defeat, the Yan Kingdom can use the supplies as a condition to take back the land of the ancestors in the northern part of Guanshan. Isn't this killing two birds with one stone?"

Sun He was promoted from the local area, he is alert, often speaks outrageously, and makes suggestions that ordinary people can't make. Murong Zhaohui also appreciates his talent, so he became a captain in just two years.

Murong Zhaohui nodded slightly: "Aiqing is right. I actually intended to set up a trade market at the border between the two countries. If the two countries can do business for mutual benefits and strengthen exchanges between the people, the war will naturally disappear."

Sun He said: "Your Majesty is wise."

"Do you have any other important matters to announce?"

Lord Wu took a step forward and said, "I have one more thing to report."

"Aiqing, please speak."

"General Meng has not been in court for many days, and he really seems to be contemptuous of the court. Now that the dog army is in danger, General Meng's heavy troops are not conducive to the stability of the court. Your Majesty, please take back General Meng's military power, so as not to cause trouble."

Murong Zhaohui lightly tapped the golden armrest of the dragon chair, thinking about Master Wu's performance.At this time, a person outside the hall slowly came here. The person was not wearing court clothes, but only casual clothes.The guard wanted to stop him, but after seeing his appearance, he let him go slowly towards the hall.

"Your Majesty, I have committed a crime. I have not been in court for many days due to physical discomfort. Please punish me." Chang Sheng knelt down on both knees and looked at Murong Zhaohui who was sitting on the golden dragon chair in the middle of the hall.Murong Zhaohui sighed slightly, and said: "Ai Qing got up and spoke." Chang Sheng stood up and looked at Master Wu, Master Wu didn't expect that the person he was attending would suddenly appear, he couldn't hold back, and took a few steps back.

"I only feel that the burden on the shoulders of the heavy soldiers is too heavy. Besides, as Master Wu said, the frontier troubles have disappeared, and the tiger charm is useless. I ask your majesty to take back the military power of the minister, so as not to be uneasy when I dream back at midnight. .”

After Murong Zhaohui thought for a while, he said: "Aiqing is serious. Aiqing has the ability to calm the border troubles, so she naturally has the ability to take the tiger amulet. Now that the border troubles have been settled, if the burden is really too heavy as Aiqing said, I can take the original Aiqing Tiger Talisman can still mobilize border guards to support the withdrawal of border soldiers. Is Aiqing satisfied?"

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Meng Sikong broke out in a cold sweat in the corner. He had just seen Changsheng enter the court in casual clothes, and he thought he had a demonic obstacle again, and he insisted on making troubles known to the world.From the current point of view, fortunately, he is not crazy to that extent.

"I have one more thing to report." Chang Sheng knelt down again and looked at Murong Zhaohui. "Your request is to be stationed at the border gate to manage the trade between the two countries. Now that the border troubles have been calmed down, Quanrong also intends to seek peace. This is a great opportunity for friendly exchanges between the two countries. I am willing to stay at the border all year round to redeem the mistakes made in the past."

Murong Zhaohui looked at Chang Sheng who bowed to him in the court hall, and thought: Is he going to leave me?He lowered his eyes, his fingertips trembled slightly, and his mind was full of thoughts.

"It's good that Aiqing has the heart to serve the country, but the environment in Guanshan is harsh, and it's not easy to be stationed here all year round. Can Aiqing be considerate?"

"No matter how difficult the place is, people must guard it. As long as it is the land of the Yan Kingdom, it is the home of the minister. Although Guanshan is dangerous, it is extremely cold when it is covered with snow, but it is also beautiful and moving."

Murong Zhaohui recalled that on the day Changsheng came back, he told him about the scenery of Guanshan, the continuous snow mountains, and the streams formed by melting snow, all of which he had never seen before.From Changsheng's clear eyes, Murong Zhaohui could see that he liked such a scene.He once said that he wanted to ride a horse and herd sheep and live a life of freedom.Murong Zhaohui sighed, hesitated for a while, and said: "With General Meng guarding Guanshan, I can rest assured."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Changsheng kowtowed to thank him, his chest ached bitterly.He looked ahead, and Murong Zhaohui, who was dressed in a golden dragon robe and sitting upright, made him feel very far away.He went to Guanshan and never saw him again, maybe in a few years he would forget, forget this kind of deep love and pain.
