Thousands of miles with the wind

Gu Siyuan actually doesn't like to socialize with people, so after his big marriage with Zhong Liran, some unnecessary meetings can be avoided.But Geerqin was considered a foreign guest, and her visit was very sincere, so Gu Siyuan had no choice but to meet her in the side hall again.

At the end of midsummer, the sun was so fierce that it slanted on the corridor of the side hall, scorching hot.Gu Siyuan ordered someone to prepare a mat, spread it in the empty hall, and sat opposite Geerqin across a small table.

All the roller blinds in the hall were raised, and the sound of cicadas came in from outside accompanied by heat, which made people feel dull for no reason.Gu Siyuan was sitting on the small table, his mind was all on the cold ice mirror at the side, quite absent-minded.

There are some seasonal melons and fruits on the table, as well as a pot of sour plum iced tea.Gerqin drank a cup of tea, threw the remaining ice cubes into his mouth, and said, "I didn't expect the summer in Yuanzhou to be so hot. Without this ice, it would be really hard."

Gu Siyuan took a sip of sour plum tea, and replied softly, "Yuanzhou City has always been like this, and this year is already considered normal." Last year, there were many severe droughts in middle school, and Yuanzhou City was as hot as a steamer, and it lasted until the Mid-Autumn Festival , are very hot.

Gerqin raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, and his green eyes were full of brilliance, and asked, "I heard people say that the emperor of Chu has a summer resort. After summer, he returns to the suburban village to escape the summer heat. Why doesn't the emperor go out of the palace to escape the summer heat?" "

Gu Siyuan responded lightly, "There are many affairs in the country, and it is not good for Your Majesty to leave Yuanzhou City with the ministers in a mighty manner. However, I have something I want to ask the princess. Will you take the eight nobles to go hunting in Xilong Snow Mountain to escape the summer heat?"

"Ah, it's true." Geerqin smiled when he heard the words, and said to Gu Siyuan in detail, "Every summer, we go hunting in Xilong and hold a prairie fire meeting."

The prairie fire meeting of the barbarians is similar to the first month festival in Chu State, and it is a very grand festival.Gu Siyuan had read the relevant classics, and now he became interested.Gerqin saw that she was very interested, so he continued, "The Liaoyuan Conference is equivalent to the New Year of Chu State. But we will race horses and arrows, perform martial arts and so on."

"As long as they are 13 years old and have a high horseback height, they can participate in the competition." Gerqin talked about this, and his whole body became energetic, and his eyes burst into charming expressions.

Gu Siyuan has never been to the grassland, nor has he ever had the idea of ​​traveling, but in Gerqin's words, there is indeed a trace of longing for the boundless world.

Under the majestic snow-capped mountains, there is an endless grassland.The barbarian youth let his horse gallop on the grassland, chasing a huge sun.The sun was setting and the sky was full of stars rising. They bathed in a sea of ​​stars and returned to the camp at the foot of the snow-capped mountains.

All this is so vast, full of silent beauty.Leaving aside the feud between the two clans, the grassland where the barbarians live is indeed a place that will make people feel refreshed.

From then on, both Gu Siyuan and Gerqin avoided some sensitive political elements and talked about folk customs.The two spent the whole afternoon like this, and it can be regarded as having a happy conversation.

When Zhong Liran came back from the Qianyuan Hall, Gu Siyuan was still meeting with Ge Erqin in the side hall.Zhong Liran didn't see anyone, so he asked the maid beside him, "Where's the queen?"

The maid replied, "Princess Gerqin came to visit, and Her Royal Highness the Queen went to the side hall to entertain her."

Zhong Liran frowned when he heard the words, and muttered softly, "Why is she here again?" Gerqin came to visit yesterday, saying that it was to thank Gu Siyuan for his kindness in visiting the sick, and Zhong Liran knew about it from Gu Siyuan.But it's only been a day, why did Gerqin come to the door again.

She is a princess from a foreign country, so what is there to talk about with her own queen.

Zhong Liran thought so in his heart, but he didn't show any emotion in front of the servant, he just nodded and asked, "Did the Queen say when she will be back?"

"Return to Your Majesty, Her Majesty the Queen has never ordered this matter."

Zhong Liran only felt that his heart was numb and itchy after being stabbed, but after all he was thinking about today's thick stack of memorials, so he temporarily put it aside, took off his boots and went into the room to sit in front of the small case and start reviewing the memorials.

The maids prepared a pot of iced tea for her, Zhong Liran drank a cup, picked up the ink pen and began to review the memorial.But Zhong Liran didn't read a few of the memorials, but Zhong Liran was a little restless.

Holding the pen, she looked at the memorial laid out in front of her, and read it carefully.The characters are still characters, and the writing is not bad, but when they are lined up together for a long time, they can't figure out what they mean.She frowned for a while, took a deep breath, put down her pen, got up quickly, put on her boots and went out.

The servants hurried behind her and heard her ask, "Which palace is the queen in?"

"Go back to Your Majesty, in Taiwei Hall."

Zhong Liran figured out the location, and hurriedly led the people towards Taiwei Hall.But when he was only a few dozen steps away from the entrance of Taiwei Hall, Zhong Liran suddenly stopped in his tracks.

She looked at the palace servants waiting in front of Taiwei Hall, frowned for a while, then turned around and looked at the small garden outside the corridor.

Zhong Liran stood under the eaves of the corridor, covered in thin sweat from the heat, staring at a pomegranate tree growing in the garden with reddish cheeks.The sun shines through the luxuriant leaves, reflecting the mottled light on the green pomegranates, making everything appear ambiguous.

Zhong Liran looked at the pomegranate tree in the yard through the bright light, and after a while he raised his hand to wipe off the hot sweat on his head, and then raised his eyes to look in the direction of Taiwei Hall.

It seems to be like this all the time, as long as Gu Siyuan leaves her sight for a little bit, she will be so flustered.As long as Gu Siyuan stays with people other than himself, he will worry about whether something will happen to her.

For example, at the age of 12, when he learned from the waiter that Zhong Lihui had stopped Gu Siyuan, Zhong Liran hurried out of Weiyang Palace to pick her up, fearing that she would be bullied.

But she is an adult now, not a child, what is she in such a hurry for?

Zhong Liran thought so, calmed down his restless emotions one by one, and then said to the left and right, "Go and say hello to the servant over there, don't let the queen know that I'm here."

"promise."

The maid heard the words, and arranged Zhong Liran's confession. Without disturbing Gu Siyuan, Zhong Liran stood outside the hall and looked at Gu Siyuan from a distance.

Hiding in the shadow of the scorching sun, she saw Gu Siyuan's always gentle smile.It was an indiscriminate gentle face when dealing with others. Zhong Liran, who had long been used to seeing her, looked at her curved eyebrows from a distance, and also curved his lips.

It seemed that with just one glance, all of Zhong Liran's overflowing emotions could dissipate.She let out a long sigh of relief, and hurried back to Chen Palace with a group of servants, and began to correct the memorial.

Maybe it was relieved, Zhong Liran's attention gradually came back, and he reviewed those tedious memorials one by one.

At about the moment of Shen Shi, Gu Siyuan finally finished his meeting with Geerqin and came back from Taiwei Hall.Zhong Liran, who was sitting in front of the small case, had good ears, and when he heard the maid saluting, he quickly put down his pen and turned to look at the screen.Seeing Gu Siyuan walking in from outside the screen, he raised his eyebrows and said, "Gu Siyuan, where did you go to play again?"

Gu Siyuan was a little surprised, "Your Majesty, did you leave so early recently? The matter of the Ministry of Industry has been settled." In the past half a month, Zhong Liran came back almost at Youshi, and after a hasty meeting with Gu Siyuan, he ran away again. School boxing.

"Why, aren't you happy that I finished my work earlier?" Zhong Liran said, beckoning to Gu Siyuan to come over.Seeing her gesture, Gu Siyuan walked to her side with a smile, and was wrapped around her waist by her.

The emperor buried his head in her abdomen and rubbed vigorously.Behind Gu Siyuan, he stroked the back of her head and asked softly, "What's wrong, Your Majesty?"

Zhong Liran wouldn't tell her what's wrong, after making up for the other party's breath, he pulled her into his arms and said, "I just asked where you went to play, but forget it, since I was in Qianyuan After the palace discussion, you haven't changed the memorial for me for more than half a month."

"Gu Siyuan, if you are idle, you are idle, so let me approve all these memorials for me today."

She spoke lightly, but Gu Siyuan felt very dizzy.She nestled in Zhong Liran's arms, and looked up at her helplessly, "Your Majesty, I'm not good at political affairs. You ask me to change some things, but I don't know how to change them."

Zhong Liran was very talkative today. He stuffed the ink pen into Gu Siyuan's hand, spread out the memorial and said, "If I tell you to change it, you can change it. If you can't, I will teach you."

Sitting in her arms, Gu Siyuan turned his head to look at the memorial in front of him, with hesitation on his face.Zhong Liran stretched out his hand and said firmly, "Change"

Gu Siyuan always pampered her, turned his head to look at the young emperor with a thin face, sighed, and said hello.She responded, holding a vermilion pen in her hand, and read the memorial for the emperor very seriously.

Zhong Liran hugged her with one arm, put his hand into her waist, put his chin on her shoulder and said softly, "I have read it."

The warm breath whispered in the ears, and the two of them gradually sweated a little while hugging each other tightly in the hot summer.Gu Siyuan felt very hot, and his body kept sliding while holding the vermilion pen.

Seeing her trembling, Zhong Liran lowered his body and whispered in her ear, "Gu Siyuan, I'm tired, you read the memorial, I don't want to read it."

Gu Siyuan bit his lip, put the vermilion pen back on the shelf with trembling hands, grabbed the clothes beside the emperor weakly, and gasped, "Your Majesty, stop making trouble."

Zhong Liran leaned over, bit her earlobe, and said solemnly, "I'm not making trouble, I'm indeed tired."

"Hug me, Gu Siyuan."

Zhong Liran's voice was low and hoarse, he took his hand from under Gu Siyuan's body, picked her up, and sat on his lap facing her.

Gu Siyuan looked down at her with a blushing face.Zhong Liran put his hand into her waist, raised his head slightly, and kissed her from bottom to top.Gu Siyuan's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he closed his eyes obediently.

Then everything around became hotter.
