I govern the country by beauty

142. I seem to have had a long, long dream. In the dream, I lived in a small courtyard, and there was a big sweet-scented osmanthus tree outside the courtyard, which floated in with the quiet and surging wind.The white cat wagging its tail was hiding under the eaves, and I was hiding in a man's arms.

His embrace was warm, I rubbed against his chest but was still not satisfied, I raised my head to find his lips.It was a soft and delicate touch, I stretched my arms around his neck, and licked his lips little by little.

He turned over and pressed me under him, I could feel the fine thin sweat on his back, and his violent bumps again and again.

But what I heard most clearly was his sigh buried in the crescent of my neck.

143. I sat on the couch and looked at myself in a daze, looking at my neat clothes, except that my shoes and socks were placed on the floor, and my belt was even tied around my waist.I got out of bed, walked to the copper mirror with bare feet, and looked at it carefully for a long time with my collar open. Except for a piece of whiteness, there was nothing.I turned around in a daze, but I happened to meet the smiling eyes of the man.

He was wearing the dark red robe I had seen that day, with a loose collar, exposing a large area of ​​skin on his chest.He leaned against the door frame, raised his eyebrows and smiled at me, as usual.

In addition to the faint black eyes under his eyes, there is also a strong smell of alcohol.

"you……"

"I'm very tired." He interrupted me casually, yawned and walked to the bed, almost falling headfirst.His head was covered by the quilt, and he said vaguely: "Yesterday, the deputy general dragged me to drink all night, and I got a headache from drinking."

I walked up to him with some hesitation, thought for a while and said, "Did you drink all night last night?"

He turned his head sideways, showing the corners of his lips slightly raised, and squinted at me with a half-smile, "Otherwise?"

I didn't answer, maybe that dream was so real that it made me feel dazed.As I thought about it, I unconsciously stroked my neck with my hand, as if I was feeling the lingering lingering in my dream last night.My mind is dizzy, and something seems to be covered by fog, so I can't see clearly or touch it.

"Except for you last night." I paused, then continued, "Has anyone else entered my room?"

There was a flash of darkness in Yu Bei's eyes, he sat up suddenly, covered his eyes with his hands, and remained motionless.

144. I thought Yu Bei would ignore me, but after a death-like silence, the man on the couch spoke lightly, trembling slightly.

"No."

145. I knew he was in a bad mood, so I didn't intend to hang around him to annoy him. I put on my shoes and socks and planned to go out for a walk, but the moment I stretched out my hand to open the door, I was held down again.I turned around, the man's arm was across my head, and his face was serious like I had never seen before.

After an unknown amount of time, the tense atmosphere around him suddenly softened. He lowered his eyelashes and sighed, reaching out to hold my wrist.

"There's a hillside over there."

"scenery is beautiful."

I didn't struggle this time, and let him lead me by the wrist out of the room, following him step by step.It's not because I can't beat him because I don't know martial arts, but the curvature of his mouth and the tenderness of the end of his eyes are full of exhaustion that cannot be ignored.

146. I don't know whether the scenery on the hillside that Yu Bei mentioned is beautiful or not, because I haven't seen it.

Qi Zhi stopped in the middle of the road on his horse, he glanced expressionlessly at my wrist held by Yu Bei, and slowly jumped off the horse.I wanted to say something, but Yu Bei who was standing in front of me unobtrusively blocked my exchange of sight with Xi Zhi.

"I'm sorry to bother you two." Qi Zhi said lightly, with a bad tone.

I took a few steps forward and before I could speak, I was hit on the head by the letter that Qi Zhi threw over unexpectedly.

"I have nothing to do with the affairs of the court, but there are some things you should know." Qi Zhi slightly hooked the corner of his lips at Yu Bei, and continued: "There is no owner in the palace now, and the memorials have piled up into a mountain. All kinds of demons and ghosts can't bear their temper."

I casually glanced at the contents of the letter twice, and felt a pain in my heart when I saw the word Fourth Prince.

"After the fourth prince got married, he was so happy that he didn't even touch anything in the court."

"En." Qi Zhi responded casually, took the rein and got on the horse. "Shi Yu can't control the court affairs anymore."

"Because he's dying."

147. I couldn't see Qi Zhi's expression clearly, I just felt the blood was flowing backwards all over my body, and my mind was beginning to become clouded.I'm not a kind person. After my fourth brother left, I didn't know how many times I cursed him at night. I wished I could eat his flesh and blood and bite his flesh.

But that's just wishing, it's hate and reluctance.

I scratched the letter paper in my hand because of too much strength, and my nails dug hard into my palm. If it was normal, I would have screamed twice, and maybe I would have shed a few tears in conjunction with it.But now, it seems that those naughty tempers can't be used. I tremble all over, and I can't make a sound with my mouth open.

There seemed to be a thousand catties under my feet, and it took me a lot of effort to take a step.As for Xi Zhi, who was sitting on horseback, he didn't move from the beginning to the end. He looked at me condescendingly, as if he was watching a pretentious actor.

"The hillside is just ahead." The man behind him suddenly said, and the strength of his grip on my wrist suddenly tightened. I turned my head and met his dark eyes.

"It's very close."

My throat was tight and my lips were dry, "Next time, I will definitely go to see it next time." I pulled his hand away and ran to Qi Zhi, and the person immediately stretched out his hand to me, and I agreed without even thinking about it. Go up and use your strength to sit firmly behind him.Xi Zhi pulled the rein to turn around, my forehead rested on Xi Zhi's back, and I never looked back at Yu Bei from the beginning to the end.

148. The lieutenant general was standing on the hillside holding a lantern, the dim yellow light of the fire reflected the flickering profile of the man.The wind blowing in the distance carried a faint fragrance of flowers, the lieutenant general looked at the osmanthus tree that had just been planted not far away, it was bought by the general from the south with a lot of money not long ago.Not long ago, I personally planted myself on this open space. I don’t know how many times the unhealed wounds on my body were opened, but I still laughed from ear to ear all day long.

"General, this flower is really fragrant."

"Really." The man rested his head on his knees, and said softly, "I don't think it's enough."

It must be that the sweet-scented osmanthus is not fragrant enough, so he didn't want to keep it.
