generation hero

He walked up to Yuan Tang, gently stroked Yuan Tang's cheek with his fingers, and said, "Don't cry."

Yuan Tang realized that his face was wet and cold, so he quickly wiped his face with his sleeve, but the tears kept falling, no matter how much he wiped, it was useless, it was too embarrassing to cry like this, he hurriedly turned around, but Feng Cong pulled He turned his shoulders back, pulled him to sit on the soft couch, and wiped his face with a veil.

The warm touch gave Yuantang great comfort, and gradually, the tears stopped.

"...Sorry, I didn't intend to eavesdrop..."

"Shh."

Feng Cong put his finger in front of his lips, then blew out the candle, and fell asleep hugging Yuan Tang.

The room was plunged into darkness, and the brocade quilt tightly wrapped the two of them.

"I really wanted to kill him that day," Feng Cong's voice seemed to be floating thousands of miles away, and he was very close to Yuan Tang, "If you hadn't come, maybe I would have really attacked him, but you came."

"Thank you... for letting me not break my oath to Father."

Feng Cong was talking about the day when Baoxiang Hall was on fire, when Yuan Tang rushed into Baoxiang Hall, the emperor looked panic-stricken.

"I really want to avenge them, kill the people who killed them, and destroy everything that killed them."

Feng Cong spoke in a voice of resentment that he had never experienced before. His fists were clenched in the brocade quilt, and his whole body was as tight as iron, as if he had exhausted all his strength to endure.

"But father forbids me to do this. Father...he knows everything. He regards them as relatives and Xia Guo as his hometown. He came here after going through all kinds of hardships, but how did they treat him?"

"Sometimes I think, if we haven't returned to Xia Kingdom, it would be better to live in Yaojing, or go to the grassland..."

Yuan Tang heard the sound of Feng Cong's heart beating like a drum, and each beat seemed to hit his eardrums, and with the master who had no energy to release, he buried the anger and hatred that had nowhere to be released deeply and darkly.

Yuan Tang finally knew why Feng Cong was depressed. He was full of anger that he had nowhere to vent, and he had a side that he couldn't show to others. His arrogance was just another kind of compromise that he couldn't vent his hatred and forget.

Xia Guo is not his hometown for him, and those who have the same blood as him are not relatives, and fleeing to the north is the only way for him to fulfill his oath to Prince Wenxi.

Only by leaving here can he completely let go of his desire for revenge.

The crime of killing relatives is too heavy. The prince traveled thousands of miles for the Xia Kingdom. In the Xia Kingdom, he suffered the suspicion of his closest people and lost his lover, but he did not want his son to bear all these. This may be his point as a father. Selfishness, Feng Cong understands this, so he always sticks to his promise, but he also has hatred and dissatisfaction.

Yuan Tang's tears flowed again, he hugged Feng Cong into Feng Cong's arms, and Feng Cong hugged him tightly.As if trying to express his anger, Feng Cong's arms were tightly wrapped around Yuan Tang's waist. Yuan Tang felt that his stomach was going to be deformed and his body was aching, but he didn't make a sound.

In the silent snowy night, the only thing he could give Feng Cong was companionship, allowing him to vent his anger and hatred like a torrent that had nowhere to go.

Feng Cong buried himself on Yuan Tang's shoulder, took a deep breath, and gradually let go, Yuan Tang was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief, he couldn't help panting, his back was wet with sweat.

"A Tang, A Tang," Feng Cong called out against Yuan Tang's face, "Did I hurt you? Sorry, I can't control it. Let me see where it hurts."

He hurriedly pulled away Yuan Tang's sweaty clothes, and was going to light the lamp, but Yuan Tang wrapped his neck around his neck and said, "It doesn't hurt, I really don't."

Feng Cong hugged Yuantang and lay down slowly, very gently, as if facing a fragile object.

In the dark, Yuan Tang felt his breath was close at hand, and then his eyelids were covered with softness and moistness for several seconds. It was not until the touch left that Yuan Tang knew that Feng Cong was kissing his eyes.

Feng Cong hugged him, patted his back lightly, and pressed his chin against his forehead. Yuan Tang didn't dare to open his eyes. Did Feng Cong think he was asleep, or was it to comfort him.

For a while, Yuan Tang was so tired that he couldn't tell if he was dreaming, and his thoughts flew away with the rhythm of the pat on the back.

in the morning

When Yuantang woke up, Shen Jingxuan and Feng Cong had already woken up. Shen Jingxuan had already bathed and changed clothes, and sat in front of the window refreshed, looking at the snow scene outside with great interest. Face.

The snow had stopped, and the two of them spoke very softly, probably because they were afraid of waking Yuan Tang up.

Yuan Tang sat under the quilt with two swollen peach-like eyes, touched the bed beside him, the residual warmth was still there, and Feng Cong slept with him last night.

Seeing Yuantang wake up, Shen Jingxuan couldn't help teasing: "Why did you guys sleep together? Could it be that Feng Cong was drunk and picked you up like a girl?"

Yuan Tang woke up immediately, and said with tongue-tied words: "No, no, no, I, probably fell asleep, and accidentally rolled together."

It's nothing if he didn't explain it, and he was so self-conscious, Shen Jingxuan said strangely: "You didn't sleep on the same couch with me last night, why did you sleep with him in the warm pavilion this morning?"

"I, I..." Yuan Tang racked his brains to lie, but saw Feng Cong standing behind the screen and looking at him, showing a sly smile, his eyes were bright and energetic, and his handsome face was reflected by the snow outside the window Shining slightly, Yuan Tang forgot for a moment that he was talking to Shen Jingxuan.

Yuan Tang blamed him in his heart, why are you laughing, come and explain to me.

Fortunately, Shen Jingxuan didn't think much about it, he just felt that Yuan Tang was drowsy, so he called the maid to help Yuan Tang wash up.

Early in the morning, his heart beat so fast that Yuan Tang felt that he might die suddenly.He felt that Feng Cong might already vaguely know that he liked him, and that he might also like himself a little bit.

After having breakfast without incident, Wang Shangshu suddenly visited Liuxiangju. He should have come to greet the Queen Mother, and he was still wearing an official uniform.

Wang Shangshu was very respectful to Feng Cong. First of all, he thanked Feng Cong for mentioning Wang Qu when he was "recovering from illness". Appreciate.

Seeing Yuan Tang, Wang Shangshu said: "A tiger father has no dogs. I heard that Yuan Shidu bravely rushed into the hall to look for His Highness when the Baoxiang Hall was on fire. He can be said to be loyal and brave."

Yuan Tang hurriedly got up and said modestly: "It's my duty, I dare not."

Wang Shangshu said: "In the past, General Yuan was brave and resolute, and I also admired it very much. It is a pity that he died on the battlefield and caused our Xia country to lose a barrier. Now it seems that Yuan Shidu is worthy of being the son of his father, and he is also brave and resourceful. "

Yuan Tang's heart moved faintly, and suddenly he understood what Wang Shangshu might say, he couldn't believe it, Shen Jingxuan held the teacup and winked at Yuan Tang.

Wang Shangshu said: "I would like to recommend Yuan Shidu to Qizhou as a recorder and join the army."

It was as if a big gong was ringing next to Yuan Tang's ear, and it made his ears buzz.Happiness came so suddenly, Yuan Tang couldn't believe it for a moment.

When Yuan Dewai heard this, he couldn't help turning his head, his face also had the expression of surprise being hit by a stuffed pie.

Yuan Tang couldn't recover, until Feng Cong pushed him from behind, and he hurriedly bowed to thank him.

The purpose of Wang Shangshu's trip was very clear. He actually brought the appointment documents directly. He obviously knew that Yuantang would not refuse. Originally, Wang Shangshu didn't have to go to a small person like Yuantang himself. Maybe he should look at Feng Cong For the sake of saving face, the document was handed over to Yuan Tang, and Wang Shangshu left.

Yuan Tang was still in a daze, Shen Jingxuan said with a smile: "Congratulations, why are you still in a daze after joining the army, are you overjoyed?"

"I..." Yuan Tang was a little overjoyed and at a loss, "Is this what the Empress Dowager meant? Why did you suddenly let me join the army?"

"Of course the Empress Dowager nodded, perhaps as a reward for your loyalty to Feng Cong that day." Shen Jingxuan said.

"But... I'm leaving, what should I do, Ah Cong?" Yuan Tang couldn't help looking at Feng Cong, who was also quite happy for him, Yuan Tang suddenly felt bored, and he didn't seem to be so bored when he got the appointment papers. Happy, go to Qizhou to join the army, and I will leave the capital without seeing Feng Cong.

Shen Jingxuan smiled, and said: "Feng Cong will seal the king's mansion, the queen mother will definitely re-select the subordinate officials of the palace, and all regulations will follow the etiquette."

He spoke in a more tactful manner, and Yuan Tang could understand that the servants and subordinates of the county king must of course be selected from the children of the aristocratic family. Yuan Tang's background qualifications are not enough, so it is absolutely impossible for him to be a servant of the palace again.Moreover, to seal Cong as king, the queen mother has more ways to control him, and there is no need to use Yuantang.

Shen Jingxuan patted Yuan Tang's head to comfort him: "Don't be discouraged, the world is like this. Heroes never ask where they come from. There is no distinction between galloping on the battlefield and mediating in the court. It's just that some people are narrow-minded and self-styled."

Speaking of it, Shen Jingxuan is also a strange person, he was born in the first class of the Xia Kingdom, but he doesn't take the distinction of family status too seriously, and people from a general family like Yuan Tang can be called brothers.

Feng Cong's words were much more straightforward: "Go, of course, how can you become a general without meritorious deeds? You work hard to learn, isn't it just so that it will come in handy one day."

Yuan Tang also had ambition and revenge in his heart, but on the other hand, he also wanted to be with Feng Cong, and at the thought of being separated from Feng Cong, Yuan Tang felt as sad as cutting flesh. Just as he felt that he saw a little hope, the reality was stormy. Come, sweep away his sunshine and moon.

What made Yuantang most at a loss was that the report date required by the document was just after the year, and now it was the twelfth lunar month. Counting the days and distance, Yuantang had to leave the capital immediately, otherwise he might not be able to catch up with the arrival date.

Yuan Tang left the palace that day and returned to Yuan's residence in the capital.

When the servant heard that the Patriarch was leaving Beijing the next day, he became very busy.Originally, Yuan Tang came to Beijing Middle School to study, thinking that he would have to study for a year or two. At the beginning, he brought a lot of salutes. Now that the schedule is tight and the waterway is not easy to travel, there are not many things that can be brought on the road. complex.

Feng Cong sent Yuan Tang back to Yuan's house. The yard of Yuan's house was full of boxes and baggage, and the servants also counted the things one by one and loaded them into the car.

Soon in the evening, the accompanying palace staff reminded Feng Cong that the key to the palace gate was about to be released.

Yuan Tang was busy with saluting when he got home, and didn't even say a few words to Feng Cong, his guts were turning green with regret.

Yuan Tang said, "I'll see you off."

Feng Cong waved his hand and said, "You are busy, you still have to load the car, don't send it off."

"Oh." Yuan Tang looked at Feng Cong reluctantly.

Feng Cong said: "Forget it, you can send it."

Just as the car arrived, another servant asked Yuan Tang whether he would take it or not with a bag of things. Yuan Tang saw that it was a bag of summer clothes and said, "No need."

Feng Cong said, "Don't worry, I'll wait for you for a while."

But the palace man said anxiously: "Your Highness, we can't wait any longer." Frightened by Feng Cong's look, he fell silent.

After the first car was installed, Yuan Tang gave some instructions to the servants and sent Feng Cong out.

Feng Cong said: "Take care of yourself, don't kick the quilt when you fall asleep at night, and send someone to Qizhou to send me a letter."

Yuan Tang nodded and said, "Can we... see each other again?"

"Of course I will see you again." Feng Cong patted Yuantang on the shoulder, "You are not competitive, you have always been steady, I have nothing to tell you, you will be free in Qizhou than in the capital, you will like it."

Yuan Tang seemed to be rubbing his heart with a hand, "I will miss you very much."

Feng Cong glanced at him and smiled.

The farewell was imminent, and Yuantang couldn't say a thousand words, so he could only tell Feng Cong to take care, and said: "I wanted to help you...I'll go first, so you have to be more careful, don't always force yourself." Hold on, I'm not making you give in, I'm just..." Worrying about you.

The more he got into his heart, the harder it was for him to speak. Feng Cong was surrounded by the palace attendants, and Yuan Tang didn't dare to speak too clearly.

Feng Cong stared at him and said, "Don't worry."

The palace servants rushed to the carriage, Yuan Tang grabbed Feng Cong's sleeve, Feng Cong gritted his teeth and said, "I'll stay with you for a night, everything at home is messy, and you can't do it alone."

The palace man said anxiously: "Your Highness, before leaving, the Empress Dowager ordered that you must hurry back today..." Feng Cong stared at him before he finished speaking.

Feng Cong pulled Yuantang's hand and walked back. Of course Yuantang hoped to stay with him for a while, but he was also a little worried in the palace, "Can I really stay outside for a night?"

Feng Cong said, "Don't worry about her."

Two teams of palace guards appeared at the end of the long street, both sent by Kangxin Palace.

"Your Highness, the key to the palace gate is about to be released, and I will escort His Highness back to the palace under the orders of the Queen Mother."

The queen mother thought that Feng Cong might not want to go back, so she sent the palace guards out to pick him up, so she meant to tie him back if he didn't want to.

Feng Cong held Yuan Tang's hand tightly, and frowned. Yuan Tang didn't want him to have a conflict with the Empress Dowager, so he shook him back and said, "Go back, I can do it myself."

Feng Cong turned his back to the crowd, hugged Yuantang hard, and said, "I'll see you off tomorrow."

"Well," Yuantang said, "I'll wait for you."

After speaking, Yuan Tang broke away lightly, turned around and walked to the mansion first, Feng Cong stood at the door for a while.

Hearing the sound of horseshoes, Yuantang turned back. It was already late, and the gate was empty. The servant saw the guest walking away and closed the wooden door.

Yuan Tang didn't sleep much that night. All the things were loaded into the carriage and transported to the port first. The servants took their places. Yuan Tang lay on the couch and couldn't sleep.

Yuan Tang waited for Feng Cong to leave the palace, waited left and right but saw no one, the servant couldn't help urging, finally Shen Jingxuan came.

"I'll see you off, and I'll also send you a letter. This morning, the Empress Dowager took Ah Cong to the meeting hall, and he can't come."

Yuan Tang was inevitably a little disappointed, and asked again: "Why did they go to the meeting hall?"

"I don't know either," Shen Jingxuan said, "Didn't I come here early in the morning? Don't even think about it. It's likely that the Empress Dowager asked His Majesty to crown him king as soon as possible. You can go home with peace of mind."

On a winter morning, Shen Jingxuan sent Yuantang to the pier, and the boat slowly left the port. Yuantang stood on the deck and waved to Shen Jingxuan. First wink.

The majestic building in the northwest is Miyagi. The morning wind blows the copper bell on the stupa, awakening the whole Xiangjing.

At the top of the jade steps, Feng Cong was standing in the north wind in a black robe with wide sleeves, and looked back.
