He said sullenly, "Why are you blaming me now? He knows what Youxin has done."
Zhu Zheng fell back sadly, looking at the person in front of him as if he didn't know him.
He was silent for a long time before he opened his mouth and said: "Chang Ge, you should have asked carefully. You shouldn't just talk about it."
Chang Ge was quite puzzled when he heard the words: "How did Mr. know that I didn't ask carefully? And how did he know that I killed him without reason? Could it be that in Mr.'s eyes, I have always been such a person who killed innocent people without any reason?"
"...No..." Zhu Zheng hurriedly tried to defend himself.
Chang Ge glanced at Zhu Zheng in front of him, as if seeing the uncertain king again.It seems that he who was struggling yesterday and who kissed him this morning without any reason were just dreams, but now he who is questioning with a sullen face is the cold reality.
He stood up suddenly, and said in a low voice: "I never expected that you would blame me too. It seems that what King Ying said today is just right."
When Zhu Zheng heard the words, a sense of sadness welled up in his heart. He suppressed his emotions and asked, "How do I treat you? Do you blame me? Don't you really know?"
Chang Ge said coldly: "I don't know. I thought I understood you, but now I realize that I really, never understood you."
Just as Zhu Zheng was about to open his mouth to defend, he found that Chang Ge suddenly covered his heart, his complexion turned pale in an instant, his feet went limp, and he curled up in the corner of the bed and trembled.
In the frenzy, Chang Ge's mind was full of King Ying's words, "First let you relax your vigilance, and then poison you while you are in southern Yunnan, and then push this matter to me in southern Yunnan."
At first, Chang Ge didn't believe a word of this sentence.
"Chang Ge!" Zhu Zheng got up immediately, but sat there slumped for no reason. He still struggled forward and stretched out his right hand to pull Chang Ge.
Chang Ge's arm was as cold as ice and iron.He curled up, trembling uncontrollably.Even so, Chang Ge used all his strength to open Zhu Zheng's hand and asked, "You...what did you do?"
Zhu Zheng looked stunned: "I didn't do anything."
In a short while, Chang Ge's complexion was nearly frost-white, his red lips also lost their color, frost grains formed on his saber eyebrows, and a cold air radiated from his whole body.
Chang Ge was trembling, gritted his teeth and spit out words intermittently, and said, "I... not far away...you..."
He glared at Zhu Zheng, a tear fell from his right eye.This tear will fall, but frost on the cheek.
The coldness around Chang Ge's body seems to have been piercing into his heart and deep into the bone marrow, cooling his enthusiasm and his lingering dreams.He grabbed Zhu Zheng's bedside with his hands, groped for Shen Shaji, stood up abruptly, left a cold word, and rushed out of the door.
Zhu Zheng was deeply hurt by his words. He sat there for a long time, but when he wanted to get up, his whole body was sore and weak. —
"Sir, you are so kind to me."

Southern Yunnan.
tea mountain.
Not long after leaving the Baishui River, there are small undulating hills on both sides of the road. Layers of terraced fields are broken on the hillsides for growing tea.In winter, the sky is clear and cool, and the endless tea terraces are quiet and beautiful.
There is still some morning dew on an old leaf, and the sun in southern Yunnan is warm, and the morning dew has not yet dried up.A woman in red and white cotton and silk clothes picked off the dewy old leaf.She casually wiped the sweat from her neck, and looked back at the old leaves that were almost full in the basket.
The current season is not good, and there are some old leaves, which is not bad.
She looked up at the sun, it was almost noon, and it was time to prepare tea and rice for Ah Da.
This minority girl walked towards the main road from the terraced fields. She was wearing white silk clothes and pants, a red cotton vest, and a headkerchief trimmed with white velvet, with a tassel hanging on the left side.When walking, the tassels danced from side to side, looking very lively and beautiful.
When she was about to walk to the main road, she saw a row of tea trees in front of her suddenly collapsed. The girl immediately woke up and asked, "Who is it? It broke my tea tree, but you have to pay for it!"
Seeing that the visitor hadn't answered for a long time, she pinched the picking clips in her hand, boldly walked a few steps forward, and approached the row of tea trees.
It's a man covered in frost!
This person was curled up by the roadside, trembling uncontrollably, and crushed a large tea tree.He was dressed in black, and his whole body was already covered with frost, and the tea trees around him were covered with fine pieces of ice.He wore a high ponytail with a small piece of iron mask.Although his appearance is handsome and handsome, his face is full of pain.
The tea-picking girl pinched the picking clips and asked tentatively, "Who are you? You... what's wrong with you?"
Seeing that this person was in pain and had no time to answer, he couldn't stop shivering, looking rather cold.The girl was suspicious, the south of Yunnan was sunny and sunny, and she could keep out the cold with only a single piece of clothing. This person looked strong and healthy, but why was he frozen like this?
But... no matter what, if the tea tree is crushed, you still have to pay for it.
Thinking of this, the girl opened her mouth and yelled in the direction where Ada was picking tea: "Ada—come here—there is someone—"

Southern Yunnan.
Blue Moon Villa.
When Zhuang Ying walked in with a smile, Zhu Zhengzheng was trying to get up in a daze.She smiled coquettishly: "Don't waste your effort, you won't be able to get up. It will be fine in a few hours."
Zhu Zhengjiang glared at her, his chest heaving with anger, and he asked, "Is it... you?"
Zhuang Ying waved her hand innocently: "It's not me. The acacia was changed yesterday, so that you can lose energy and concentrate on rest tonight. Who knows that you met your sweetheart, and you just wanted to take a bath early in the morning. "
"I'm asking Chang Ge!" Zhu Zheng rarely lost control, and rarely lost his temper at her.
Zhuang Ying shook her head: "It's not me either. I ate the wine in the morning with him. You ate the wine at noon with him. If there is a problem, why didn't we get poisoned?"
Zhu Zheng was stunned for a moment, as if he was persuaded by her, and then he noticed the flaws in it. He immediately asked: "Is it because these two kinds of wine can't be eaten together?"
Zhuang Ying smiled and asked: "Sir, have you ever heard of the ice soul poison in southern Yunnan? This kind of poison has always been dispersed in two kinds of wine. Not only will it not be bitter and difficult to drink, but it is even more delicious when you drink it. It's sweet and sweet. And this wine...drink one of them separately, it's completely non-toxic, if you're afraid, you're afraid...combined into one."
Zhu Zheng's waist and knees were still sore, but he didn't know where the strength came from after hearing her words. He thumped the bed angrily, gritted his teeth, and his voice seemed to be full of resentment: "You gave him ice soul poison?"
Zhuang Ying immediately waved his hand: "He drank the wine in the morning voluntarily. The wine at noon is also the same. How can I blame it?"
"Hello... despicable!" Zhu Zheng gritted his teeth.
"Why did Zhou Tianzi say this? I have already said that if I knew who you belonged to, I would kill her tomorrow and see how you belong. It's just that Zhou Tianzi didn't take it seriously and released the news carelessly. , Let him throw himself into the trap."
Zhu Zheng's voice was cold and quiet, and he said: "I also made it clear that day, now I am walking on thin ice, devoting my energy and energy to serving the common people and being a single person. If something happens to Chang Ge, I will follow him and return to my destiny. "
"Don't worry." Zhuang Ying said quietly, "General Chang is in the same condition as me. Even if you don't tell me, I will spare his life. Although the Ice Soul Gu poison is chilling to the bone, it is expected that General Chang If you are strong and healthy, and you can live for ten or eight years, that's not a problem."
Zhu Zheng said angrily in a low voice: "You want to torture, all of them are aimed at me! What are you doing to torture Chang Ge!"
"I'm curious." Zhuang Ying smiled sweetly at him, "I'm curious, how the two of you will continue in this situation. And, maybe, he hates you now, maybe how to fight each other in the future. You can't go on , and will turn around and beg me to be the king of this southern Yunnan."
Zhu Zheng's tone was cold, and he said: "King Ying has never heard of it, so it's hard to get a person's heart by force."
Zhuang Ying's face suddenly darkened, and she took a step forward to approach him: "I want to force it. Not only do I want to force it, but now I will try to see if it can be achieved by force."
She suddenly turned into a playful look, playing with a small medicine bottle with her fingertips, and said with a smile: "Zhu Zheng, I want you to kneel down and beg me to save Chang Ge."
Zhu Zheng frowned and asked, "What are you holding? Is it the antidote?"
"No." Zhuang Ying smiled, "It's poison."
"The Ice Soul Gu poison has no medicine to cure it. When the attack occurs, the whole body is cold, penetrates into the bone marrow, and hurts the heart veins. It is extremely uncomfortable. Any attack, a weak person may freeze the heart veins and be completely unable to survive. .And this bottle in my hand...is the flint flame poison. This kind of poison can relieve the temporary pain of the ice soul poison, so as not to lose the heart and go away for no reason. But..."
Zhuang Ying smiled and looked at Zhu Zheng with an unbelievable expression on his face, and said: "This flint flame Gu poison damages the heart veins, and it will break your body once you use it. But... If you don't use it, the poisonous state of the Ice Soul Gu poison You have also seen that life is worse than death. It is up to you whether you want this relief medicine or not."
Zhu Zheng's heart was full of emotions. He was thinking about many problems all of a sudden. Is what Zhuang Ying said true?Is there really no cure for the Ice Soul Gu poison?Suiyan Gu poison damages the heart, how much does it hurt?What would happen if he didn't take the flint flame Gu poison?
Seeing this, Zhuang Ying said with joy and sweetness: "What's the trouble with this? You can't live and you can't die. Last time when you made a choice, didn't you choose to die without hesitation? Even if Chang Ge's heart is broken , and let him live."
Zhu Zheng glanced at him in astonishment, only to feel that she was not on guard because she was a woman before, but now it seems that this woman is really as Chang Ge said, definitely not an ordinary woman.
"Zhu Zheng, do you want to vote? If you don't, I'll throw the flint flame poison into the river and listen to it." Zhuang Ying looked at Zhu Zheng with a smile, but kept urging her.
If he didn't choose, he would just watch Chang Ge's pain attack but could do nothing.
However, he didn't know how the flint flame poison would hurt his body, nor did he know how many of Zhuang Ying's words were true.
But one thing is certain, taking the Flame Gu Poison first, can be regarded as an extra option.Use it or not, how to use it, you can think about it later.Now he hesitated, Zhu Zheng was really afraid that Zhuang Ying would turn his back on him immediately, and would not give any more.
He clenched his fists, propped up his limp body, and prepared to prostrate.
Seeing this, Zhuang Ying said cheerfully, "Forget it, I can't stand your bowing down this week. I just want to tell you that it is indeed possible to force and persecute."
She tossed the small medicine bottle in her hand to Zhu Zheng: "I will give you this Suiyan Gu poison. The more you take, the faster you will die, so take it easy."
She smiled cleverly, turned around and went out, the silver bells all over her body jingling.However, to Zhu Zheng's ears, the jingling sound was like a silver bell chasing after his soul.
Zhu Zheng blankly picked up the medicine bottle from the couch and squeezed it into the palm of his hand.
A tall and thin young general stepped out of the shadow on the side of the bed and stood in front of Zhu Zheng.
******
17-year-old Chang Ge is lying on the soft grass with a sprig of dogtail in his mouth.
He watched the clouds rolling and relaxing in the sky, watching the sunset smudge the border of the sky a little bit, watching the crimson color slightly drunken the cheeks of the blue sky.
Today is his first victory.
When he returned, Zhu Zheng, who had become the emperor of Zhou, stood on the gate of the palace to welcome him, and helped him take off his battle robe and armor with his own hands.
Everyone praised Chang Ge for his surprise victory in the first battle, even better than his father, General Chang Chuan.
Chang Ge didn't take this praise seriously, looking at the lingering clouds passing by in the sky, but for some reason, he thought of the cold-faced Wang in his heart.
He lay on the grass thinking wildly and killing time, but suddenly saw his father's face appearing in the sky.Chang Ge's resolute look comes from his father, but when it comes to his delicate and handsome appearance, he still inherits more from his mother.
"Ah! Father." Chang Ge stood up suddenly and saluted respectfully.
"There is no need to be too polite, Chang Ge." Chang Chuan said, "This battle was fought beautifully. It was even better than when I was my father."
Chang Ge scratched his head in embarrassment, and said with a smile, "It's because my father and the Chang family taught the art of war well."
Chang Chuan heard the words, but his eyes were full of worry and anxiety.He sighed, sat down beside Chang Ge, and asked, "Chang Ge... what do you think of Chang Jiajun?"
Chang Ge raised his face, full of youthful spirit, he pointed a halberd with a dog's tail grass, and said proudly: "Chang's family goes out to fight, and they are invincible and invincible!"
Chang Chuan nodded: "You are right. It is the duty of the Chang family to fight well and defend the country."
"Yes!" Chang Ge laughed, with joy in his eyes.
"However. Monarchs and ministers should be courteous, and ministers should be loyal to the emperor. Apart from this, don't think otherwise." Chang Chuan looked at him and said, "We hold the bronze tiger talisman in our hands, and we are full of crimes of killing and fighting. Above the court, it is like walking on thin ice. If there is even the slightest thought of injustice, all kinds of ways of death... it is better to die in battle."
Chang Ge looked at his father who suddenly made strange remarks, thinking about the ancestors and generals in the family who died for no reason, and asked: "I understand that the Chang family is a sharp knife and an excellent sword, but why are they walking on thin ice in the court?" ? Shouldn’t such numerous meritorious deeds be appreciated by the monarch and admired by all the ministers?”
Chang Chuan was a little startled by his "monarch's appreciation, ten thousand ministers' admiration", immediately looked around vigilantly, and whispered: "Don't say similar words again."
Chang Ge glanced at his father suspiciously, the wind lifted the broken hair on his forehead, but it couldn't blow away his doubts.
Chang Chuan lowered his voice, and said softly: "Chang Ge... We will be the best sword in the Zhou Dynasty, but at the same time, we will also be a sword on the head of the princes of other countries. And the crime is serious, this is moral intolerance. Although we do righteous things, but what we do is disliked by the world. It is tolerated by others and disliked by the people. Therefore, since the Chang family took command, although they have made great achievements in battle, they have always One... above the court, all are besieged on all sides."
"What my father said is quite complicated. Chang Ge has never experienced the affairs of the court, so he only knows a little about it."
Chang Chuan did not explain directly, but quoted a sentence in the "Shu Zhi Ling": "From my ancestors to my descendants, I have accumulated trust in the third generation of Qin. Today, I have more than 2 soldiers, and they are powerful enough to betray. Those who are bound to die and uphold righteousness dare not insult the teachings of their ancestors to forget their ancestors[[-]]. General Meng Tian, who is righteous and loyal, still repents for killing too much, and kills himself to abide by righteousness. Therefore, it is not all to blame The affairs of the court. Conquests in the South and the North in the War, was a waste of time and money, and committed murders. The generals of the Chang family kept righteousness and felt sorry for the crimes committed. Many committed suicide, which is really a helpless act..."
Chang Chuan stroked Chang Ge's back, and said softly: "I wish that you could live in the era of unified world and no longer need to fight everywhere. You have two or three children, who will be happy under your knees and take care of you for the rest of your life..."
Father's words drifted farther and farther away, as if leaving with the rolling clouds in the sky.Chang Ge was washed by a pool of icy water, going down the cliff and flowing straight down, his whole body was icy cold.
He came to the dark night, the snow with goose feathers fluttering silently.
Father Chang Chuan knelt in the ancestral hall with his head bowed and many unfinished reasons.
Who gave Chang Chuan death?
For many years, Chang Ge just didn't want to think about it, and didn't want to delve into it.
Because he is afraid of the real answer, like a cold iron, it can pierce Chang Ge's heart in one fell swoop.

☆, Suiyan
The goose-feathered snow chilled Chang Ge's body, as if a huge ice flower had bloomed in his heart, and the coldness began to penetrate his bones from the heart.It seemed that he was falling deeper and deeper into a cold abyss. The frost had curled him up so cold that his fingertips were covered with icicles.
This coldness follows like a shadow, but there is nothing to do.
A warm feeling came into the embrace, but before it could warm the heart, it froze into a boulder of frost, pressing heavily on Chang Ge's chest.This oppressive feeling made him breathless, Chang Ge stretched out his hand hopelessly, and finally woke up in this cold dream.
It turned out that this coldness was not a dream.
Chang Ge found himself lying in a strange room, surrounded by several layers of quilts, but these quilts were all like ice and snow, which made him tremble all over.On his chest, there is a copper heart furnace, and this heart furnace is the frost boulder in the dream just now.Chang Ge looked around, distracting himself from the cold.
The house is surrounded by white walls and has a bucket structure.There are some light ink paintings on the eaves.The vivid kylin is carved on the Guosong lattice door, and the wooden carvings such as dragons and colorful phoenixes are meticulously carved on the head of the beams.The furniture and furnishings in the house are not like those made in Han Dynasty, and the shapes are more flexible and exaggerated, with some decorations from the Western Regions mixed in.
He was fascinated by it, and he used it to divert his desire to think about Zhu Zheng.
A tall, thin man pushed the door lightly and walked in, holding a new bosom furnace in his hand.It was Zhang Zhiyin who came.
Chang Ge was quite surprised, and opened his mouth to ask, "Zhiyin, why is it you?"
Zhang Zhiyin walked to the bed, he was used to combing all his hair, which was a bit like "the moon is bright and the stars are sparse", but today his forehead hair was a little messed up, and some short bangs fell down.
He closed the door, turned around and found that Chang Ge had woken up, and said with a hint of surprise, "General, you're awake."
Zhang Zhiyin walked to the bed in a few steps, and said softly: "General, I have offended you." He took out the bosom that had been frozen into lumps of ice from Chang Ge's bosom, and stuffed the new warm bosom into his arms The one who often sings is hit.
The charcoal-burning bosom, after touching Changge, cooled down and was covered with frost before sticking to it for a stick of incense.The cold chest in his heart made Chang Ge cough a few times.
Zhang Zhiyin sighed in a low voice.
Chang Ge put away his quilt, coughed a few times, and then asked: "Zhi, Zhiyin, how did you find me?"
"Piao Xia was worried when he heard that the general was riding alone in southern Yunnan, so he followed him all the way. After entering southern Yunnan, he went door-to-door to inquire about the general's whereabouts. Only then did he meet the general at the home of a tea farmer by the Baishui River."
Chang Ge nodded, but let out a muffled cough: "Thank you for your hard work."
"I'll go get some charcoal fire for the general." Zhang Zhiyin felt anxious when he saw that he was really cold.
"No, there's no need." Chang Ge said, "This bosom stove won't last long. There's really no need to bother."
Chang Ge smiled at him, pretending to be relaxed: "Besides, I have already grasped the attack pattern of this cold poison. On the way I came, I had a total of two attacks, and this time it was three times. Between the three attacks, only Tolerable cold. I just had one attack and should be able to hold on for a while now."
Zhang Zhiyin's face was gloomy: "I asked the tea farmer who took you in, and the owner said that the poison in the general's body is ice soul poison, which is really rare. And this poison... seems to have no solution."
Chang Ge was disappointed: "If there is no solution, there will be no solution. Originally, this life was picked up by Zui Ling for me. After living for so long, I can still meet you, and I think it is worth it."
Zhang Zhiyin, who always had a calm face, was quite moved when he heard the words.
"The general's long halberd pierces the wind and clouds, and the movement of troops is unreliable. He takes the lead in every battle and unites his heart. He is free and easy, and he is not a false name. In today's world, the hero who sings wildly is none other than the general."
Hearing his praise, Chang Ge felt a little warmth in the bone-chilling cold, and said with some embarrassment, "I'm not as good as you say."
Zhang Zhiyin suddenly knelt down on one knee and made a big salute: "Zhiyin joined the army because he admired the general's heroic spirit and wisdom since he was a child. Being able to work together in Yizhou, he found that the general is easy-going and rewards and punishes clearly, which made my servant even more admirable. Regarding the poisonous matter, I only hate myself for not discovering the general early, and I hate myself for not being able to suffer on behalf of the general.”
Chang Ge wanted to pat him on the shoulder, but remembered that his whole body was icy cold, so he had no choice but to give up, and only said words of comfort: "This matter has nothing to do with you, you don't have to blame yourself too much. It's just that I am too weak to defend against others, and I am always fooled by others." That's all."
Zhang Zhiyin was silent for a moment, and asked, "Is the general feeling better now?"
Chang Ge nodded and said, "It's better than before, but it's still very cold."
Zhang Zhiyin seemed to be depressed, looking back and forth at Chang Ge.He wanted to speak, but lowered his eyes to give up.
His thoughts were noticed by Chang Ge, who asked, "Zhiyin...what are you thinking about?"
Zhang Zhiyin said hesitantly: "General... If there is a poison that can overcome the cold poison of the ice soul, but it will damage your body and your life, would you use it?"
Chang Ge said without hesitation, "If there is such a poison, I will definitely use it."
Then, he explained: "I'm not afraid of this kind of poisonous pain. It's just that people like us who are dancing on the tip of a knife don't know when the destiny is. It’s better to have wine to enjoy, drink to sing, follow one’s nature in the present moment, and be steadfast in the world. What’s more, for those who live and die, death is also the beginning of life[1], life and death are nothing more than life and death, so there’s nothing to be afraid of.”
not to mention……
Chang Ge recalled Zhu Zheng's complex and astonished expression again, and kept asking why he wanted to kill You Xin.
And Zhuang Yingtian said with a smile, "The general's second glass of poisonous wine may be on the way."
In the confusion and coldness, he remembered the confusion and obsession that morning... What exactly is that?
What is Chang Ge to Zhu Zheng?
He couldn't figure it out, and didn't dare to think about it, he was afraid that the answer would be like ice soul poison, chilling his heart.
If he hadn't been blown dizzy by the lingering warm wind in the south of Yunnan for a while, he would definitely not be careless and be poisoned by this ice soul Gu poison.
Chang Ge's heart was full of pain and disappointment. He looked at Zhang Zhiyin who was still kneeling on one knee and bowed his head in silence, and asked, "Zhiyin, do you have something to hide from me?"
Zhang Zhiyin took out a small clay bottle from his waist, raised his hands above his head, and said, "This is the flint flame Gu poison. This poison is not the antidote to the Ice Soul Gu poison, but after taking this poison, the whole body is full of raging and evil fire, just It can suppress the poison of Frost and Ice Soul, and relieve temporary worries... At least, it can act as usual."
Chang Ge was quite surprised: "Where did you get this flint flame Gu poison?"
Zhang Zhiyin lowered his head and lowered his eyes, and said casually, "I was asked by the tea growers in the town."
Hearing this, Chang Ge took the medicine bottle without hesitation, took out a fiery red pill and swallowed it raw.Not long after swallowing, Chang Gexuan took off all the layers of quilts on his body, as if flames were swimming under the skin, a burning sensation rose from his heart, and instantly overflowed his whole body.
This is another kind of discomfort.It seemed as if there were clusters of flames burning the internal organs, and it seemed that there were thousands of ants gnawing at the heart, lungs and bone marrow.But no matter what kind of pain, it is better than falling asleep in the boundless cold.
Chang Ge endured the pain, took a deep breath, and said: "The effect is miraculous in an instant, this poison is really effective."
Zhang Zhiyin seemed to know all about his series of painful experiences, without any surprise.He quietly put away the medicine bottle of Suiyan Gu poison, and said in a low voice, "Suiyan Gu poison is extremely poisonous. General please allow me to keep it."
Chang Ge was only focused on suppressing the burning pain of the flint flame Gu poison, and didn't care about such trivial matters at all, only nodded in agreement.
Zhang Zhiyin saluted, turned around and left the cabin.
Standing in the courtyard, he wrote the words "Submitted, An" on the wooden stick in very small characters, looking up as if waiting for something.
This is the first time Zhang Zhiyin used the guiding spirit stone.Before that, he only knew that white pigeons could tell the way, but he never knew that he could bring spirit stones to make him know people.Feeling apprehensive in his heart, he stood in the courtyard and waited for a long time, until the Lingshi in his hand was sticky and sweaty.
Suddenly, a white carrier pigeon fluttered down on the roof, cooing incessantly in its throat.

Jingzhou.
Jiangling City.General's Mansion.
General Gan Xinzhong stood in the study, with the secret report from Wuling on the table.The shape of the study is simple and simple, and the books on the shelves on both sides are mostly military books such as "Sima Fa", "Wu Zi", and "Six Secret Teachings". There is a "Complete Map of Jingzhou" hanging behind the desk in the middle.The territory of Jingzhou on this map is slightly different from the current territory of Jingzhou. It is a territory map a few years ago that merges Yuzhou and Nanyang at the top, swallows southern Yunnan and Jiaozhou at the bottom, and occupies Luling on the right.
At that time, Situ Xin, the great Sima of Jingzhou, was still alive. Outside there was Situ Xin who quelled the war, and inside there was Meihe and the reform and repair. Jingzhou ranked first among the six heroes and was thriving day by day.
The situation at that time, it is only a few years if I think about it now.Nanyang was pacified by the Great Wei, Yuzhou became self-reliant, southern Yunnan has always emphasized self-reliance, Jiaozhou completely broke away from the covenant with Jingzhou, Luling was merged into Wu State, and Jingzhou was eroded by less than half.
A light but familiar coughing sound came from outside the door. Gan Xinzhong was very familiar with the sound of footsteps and coughing. Before this person entered the door, he took the initiative to say: "Prime Minister, you are not in good health. What's the matter?" As soon as I heard it, I went to the door on my own, and there was no need for the prime minister to go there in person."
Mei and Cha had just entered the door, and were listening to Gan Xinzhong's words, they said, "If I don't move my old bones, I'm really going to die."
Gan Xinzhong took a few steps forward, and lightly supported Jingzhou Prime Minister Mei and Cha.As soon as Mei and Cha entered the door, their eyes fell on the "Complete Map of Jingzhou" in the middle, and they sighed lightly: "Xinzhong, do you still miss Haozhi?"
Gan Xinzhong helped him to sit down on the grand teacher's chair beside him, bowed his head and said: "Teacher is upright and plotted against you for the sake of peace, unfortunately he was killed, and I lost a great wing in Jingzhou."
Mei and Cha shook their heads: "If Situ Jing wants to rebel, if Hao Zhi's soul is allowed to return and he chooses again, he will still choose to rein in his horse and go north to try his best to stop his younger brother."
Gan Xinzhong agreed: "Teacher has been a soldier all his life, and died in obedience to righteousness. This is indeed the true nature of a teacher."
Mei Hecha said with emotion: "If Haozhi is still alive, and the son is restrained, he will not be so reckless."
Gan Xinzhong immediately frowned and asked: "But did the son cause any trouble?"
Mei Hecha sighed and said, "Ever since the Taoist priest of Xuanmiao Temple predicted that Mr. Shanhe would be invited to come out of the mountain by the prince, he felt that he had lost his self-esteem and hated him. Before, the palace made things difficult, and even pointed out a daughter-in-law to accompany him." Mr. Mr. couldn't bear it, and bought this miserable woman. Who knew that this woman was a deliberate trap set by Chi Risheng. This miserable woman was only a showman before, and she was still a virgin. The next day, the prince had his body checked and was furious. In a fit of anger, someone beat this innocent woman to death, and then randomly found an excuse for peace and sent the husband to southern Yunnan."
"Ridiculous! The dignified son of Jingzhou actually did such an absurd thing."
General Gan Xinzhong listened to this messy series of things, with a look of disgust on his face. He didn't know if he hated the women involved in the palace, or he hated the prince's intention to rape noble and noble celebrities, or he sympathized with this innocent woman who died tragically.
This feeling of disgust churned in his heart for a long time, and Gan Xinzhong spent great efforts to finally suppress this inexplicable disgust.He opened his mouth and asked: "In the land of southern Yunnan, there are many witches and Gus. Sir, you are a civil servant, what should you do if you die?"
Mei and Cha sighed, "Exactly."
"Where is the gentleman now? Is he still healthy?"
Mei Hecha said worriedly: "This time I came to find the general, and this is exactly what I did. Mr. was imprisoned in Lanyue Mountain Villa, and he was poisoned with poison. Go, I feel that I have offended Mr. deeply this time, and the two ordinary generals go, I am afraid that I will not be able to express the guilt of Jingzhou."
Gan Xinzhong immediately understood Mei and Cha's intentions.He saluted and said, "But according to the prime minister's order."
Mei and Cha coughed twice, and said, "It's not too late, general, hurry up and leave. If you take Shiqing with you, I'm afraid that King Dianying will mediate with you again. Shiqing is smart, so I can offer you one or two tricks."
"Yes!"

A bright moon.
Chang Ge lay in a daze for two days, only then did he feel that both the Flame Gu Poison and the Ice Soul Gu Poison on his body had been temporarily suppressed, and now he was standing in the night wind in southern Yunnan, looking up at the bright moon.
"The emperor envoys his ministers with courtesy, and the ministers serve the emperor with loyalty."
Chang Chuan's words floating to the sky came out again in this cold night in southern Yunnan.
At first, Chang Ge only thought that his father wanted to beat him, so as not to conspire against him with the military power in his hands.Looking back now, I realized my father's overtones just now.
Monarchs and ministers are different, words and deeds must not exceed the rules.
The king's heart is too heavy, and he will only hurt himself if he turns around a thousand times.
Zhang Zhiyin was worried about the Ice Soul Gu poison, so he took Chang Ge's red general's cloak and gently put it on for him.
They bid farewell to the tea farmers today, thanked them in every possible way, and bought a lot of tea cakes from southern Yunnan as companion items. They planned to set off tomorrow and leave this extremely distant land.
Chang Ge tightened his cloak smoothly, looking at the bright moon and broken stars in southern Yunnan with half reluctance and half sadness.
******
The frosty and cold moon hangs quietly in the sky, and the night wind blows away the lingering clouds around.
Zhu Zheng was full of sadness, standing in front of the window, looking up at the same cold and bright moon.
After Changge left, King Dianying left Lanyue Villa. Before leaving, he specially handcuffed Zhu Zheng in the room.He has no time to take care of himself, he only cares about his body, which he often sings so much that he doesn't think about eating and drinking.
It wasn't until two days ago that Zhu Zheng finally received a reply letter saying "has been accepted, Ann".
Zhu Zheng looked at the bright moon and sparse stars in the sky.
I don't know where Changge is and what he is thinking about.Whether his thoughts are related to himself.
I also don't know... this time, I don't know when and where I will see you again; I don't know if this misunderstanding can be resolved again.
He suddenly felt disgusted with himself.He kept saying that he wanted to protect Chang Ge, but he couldn't stop the impeachment from the government and the public; it was clear that Chang Ge had made many achievements and returned from the army, but he couldn't stop the joint attack.
In the past three years, Chang Ge no longer fought with soldiers and horses, as if facing an abyss.However, every move he makes inevitably hurts Chang Ge, including Jianping's Giant Arrow, and Southern Yunnan's Ice Soul.
Could it be that he died in the Miyagi Mutiny three years ago, and he would sing it better than he is now.
On the day of the mutiny, the heavy rain drenched him from head to toe.He was drenched in the pouring rain, but failed to make himself more aware.He hid in the cave where he once hid with Chang Ge, and his mind collapsed for three days.
He doesn't quite remember how he spent those three days. When he recalled it, he only knew that he was huddled in the cave at that time, and his heart and mind were filled with the sappy Changge.It was Chang Ge's smile, Chang Ge's cheerfulness, Chang Ge and his own bits and pieces that supported Zhu Zheng through those three days.Without him, Zhu Zheng might have lost his job on the day of the mutiny.
When he came out of the cave again, the usual sunlight in Chang'an hurt his eyes.
The founding emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, heroic and wise, ruled the world and feuded the princes.Unexpectedly, the following generations of mediocre government left many problems.As for Zhu Zheng, King Wen of Zhou, he was exhausted physically and mentally by many things and couldn't help himself.
The self-government system left by King Wu of the founding of the country made the heroes separate and sometimes had frictions. Sometimes, Zhu Zheng even felt that in a trance, this is not the rule of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but a return to the world of great struggle.
Not only the Great Zhou Dynasty, but also the princes fought for years, laboring the people and wasting money.He has long hated this kind of endless battle for years.
Situ Jing's mutiny in Miyagi gave Da Zhou a new chance.
If you don't break, you don't stand; if you don't die, you live.
This great cause is not for personal or family hatred.For the common people of the world, for the unification of the mountains and rivers, it is even more rehabilitated.Let him live in this world in the name of "Chang Ge" in a fair and aboveboard manner.
After making up his mind, he began to travel around the world, recruiting people with lofty ideals... until the last step, he bought Xuanmiao Temple and sent people to plant auspicious omens in the back garden of Jingzhou.
During this process, he inquired in every possible way, but there was no news of Changge.At first, he was afraid that the hegemony had already been achieved, and Chang Song would no longer be seen until Yizhou.
He was delighted that Chang Ge did not commit suicide and was still alive.He was lonely and Changge couldn't understand the reason, and hated him deeply.
Sometimes, Zhu Zheng would have some weird ideas in his mind, for example, it doesn't matter if he hates him, as long as Chang Ge can let Zhu Zheng stay with him.But more often, seeing Chang Ge's lonely expression, Zhu Zheng's heart was full of guilt and remorse, and he couldn't help churning.
In the past three years, Zhu Zheng regretted it all the time.
Until the day when Chang Ge flew thousands of miles overnight to scrape his bones and cure poison for him in southern Yunnan, he was moved and thought that Chang Ge had already understood his heart.
Chang Ge persuaded him to go to Yizhou, and even for a moment, Zhu Zheng was really moved.He doesn't want any redress, and he doesn't want any hegemony, he just wants to be with Chang Ge
Zhu Zheng fell back sadly, looking at the person in front of him as if he didn't know him.
He was silent for a long time before he opened his mouth and said: "Chang Ge, you should have asked carefully. You shouldn't just talk about it."
Chang Ge was quite puzzled when he heard the words: "How did Mr. know that I didn't ask carefully? And how did he know that I killed him without reason? Could it be that in Mr.'s eyes, I have always been such a person who killed innocent people without any reason?"
"...No..." Zhu Zheng hurriedly tried to defend himself.
Chang Ge glanced at Zhu Zheng in front of him, as if seeing the uncertain king again.It seems that he who was struggling yesterday and who kissed him this morning without any reason were just dreams, but now he who is questioning with a sullen face is the cold reality.
He stood up suddenly, and said in a low voice: "I never expected that you would blame me too. It seems that what King Ying said today is just right."
When Zhu Zheng heard the words, a sense of sadness welled up in his heart. He suppressed his emotions and asked, "How do I treat you? Do you blame me? Don't you really know?"
Chang Ge said coldly: "I don't know. I thought I understood you, but now I realize that I really, never understood you."
Just as Zhu Zheng was about to open his mouth to defend, he found that Chang Ge suddenly covered his heart, his complexion turned pale in an instant, his feet went limp, and he curled up in the corner of the bed and trembled.
In the frenzy, Chang Ge's mind was full of King Ying's words, "First let you relax your vigilance, and then poison you while you are in southern Yunnan, and then push this matter to me in southern Yunnan."
At first, Chang Ge didn't believe a word of this sentence.
"Chang Ge!" Zhu Zheng got up immediately, but sat there slumped for no reason. He still struggled forward and stretched out his right hand to pull Chang Ge.
Chang Ge's arm was as cold as ice and iron.He curled up, trembling uncontrollably.Even so, Chang Ge used all his strength to open Zhu Zheng's hand and asked, "You...what did you do?"
Zhu Zheng looked stunned: "I didn't do anything."
In a short while, Chang Ge's complexion was nearly frost-white, his red lips also lost their color, frost grains formed on his saber eyebrows, and a cold air radiated from his whole body.
Chang Ge was trembling, gritted his teeth and spit out words intermittently, and said, "I... not far away...you..."
He glared at Zhu Zheng, a tear fell from his right eye.This tear will fall, but frost on the cheek.
The coldness around Chang Ge's body seems to have been piercing into his heart and deep into the bone marrow, cooling his enthusiasm and his lingering dreams.He grabbed Zhu Zheng's bedside with his hands, groped for Shen Shaji, stood up abruptly, left a cold word, and rushed out of the door.
Zhu Zheng was deeply hurt by his words. He sat there for a long time, but when he wanted to get up, his whole body was sore and weak. —
"Sir, you are so kind to me."

Southern Yunnan.
tea mountain.
Not long after leaving the Baishui River, there are small undulating hills on both sides of the road. Layers of terraced fields are broken on the hillsides for growing tea.In winter, the sky is clear and cool, and the endless tea terraces are quiet and beautiful.
There is still some morning dew on an old leaf, and the sun in southern Yunnan is warm, and the morning dew has not yet dried up.A woman in red and white cotton and silk clothes picked off the dewy old leaf.She casually wiped the sweat from her neck, and looked back at the old leaves that were almost full in the basket.
The current season is not good, and there are some old leaves, which is not bad.
She looked up at the sun, it was almost noon, and it was time to prepare tea and rice for Ah Da.
This minority girl walked towards the main road from the terraced fields. She was wearing white silk clothes and pants, a red cotton vest, and a headkerchief trimmed with white velvet, with a tassel hanging on the left side.When walking, the tassels danced from side to side, looking very lively and beautiful.
When she was about to walk to the main road, she saw a row of tea trees in front of her suddenly collapsed. The girl immediately woke up and asked, "Who is it? It broke my tea tree, but you have to pay for it!"
Seeing that the visitor hadn't answered for a long time, she pinched the picking clips in her hand, boldly walked a few steps forward, and approached the row of tea trees.
It's a man covered in frost!
This person was curled up by the roadside, trembling uncontrollably, and crushed a large tea tree.He was dressed in black, and his whole body was already covered with frost, and the tea trees around him were covered with fine pieces of ice.He wore a high ponytail with a small piece of iron mask.Although his appearance is handsome and handsome, his face is full of pain.
The tea-picking girl pinched the picking clips and asked tentatively, "Who are you? You... what's wrong with you?"
Seeing that this person was in pain and had no time to answer, he couldn't stop shivering, looking rather cold.The girl was suspicious, the south of Yunnan was sunny and sunny, and she could keep out the cold with only a single piece of clothing. This person looked strong and healthy, but why was he frozen like this?
But... no matter what, if the tea tree is crushed, you still have to pay for it.
Thinking of this, the girl opened her mouth and yelled in the direction where Ada was picking tea: "Ada—come here—there is someone—"

Southern Yunnan.
Blue Moon Villa.
When Zhuang Ying walked in with a smile, Zhu Zhengzheng was trying to get up in a daze.She smiled coquettishly: "Don't waste your effort, you won't be able to get up. It will be fine in a few hours."
Zhu Zhengjiang glared at her, his chest heaving with anger, and he asked, "Is it... you?"
Zhuang Ying waved her hand innocently: "It's not me. The acacia was changed yesterday, so that you can lose energy and concentrate on rest tonight. Who knows that you met your sweetheart, and you just wanted to take a bath early in the morning. "
"I'm asking Chang Ge!" Zhu Zheng rarely lost control, and rarely lost his temper at her.
Zhuang Ying shook her head: "It's not me either. I ate the wine in the morning with him. You ate the wine at noon with him. If there is a problem, why didn't we get poisoned?"
Zhu Zheng was stunned for a moment, as if he was persuaded by her, and then he noticed the flaws in it. He immediately asked: "Is it because these two kinds of wine can't be eaten together?"
Zhuang Ying smiled and asked: "Sir, have you ever heard of the ice soul poison in southern Yunnan? This kind of poison has always been dispersed in two kinds of wine. Not only will it not be bitter and difficult to drink, but it is even more delicious when you drink it. It's sweet and sweet. And this wine...drink one of them separately, it's completely non-toxic, if you're afraid, you're afraid...combined into one."
Zhu Zheng's waist and knees were still sore, but he didn't know where the strength came from after hearing her words. He thumped the bed angrily, gritted his teeth, and his voice seemed to be full of resentment: "You gave him ice soul poison?"
Zhuang Ying immediately waved his hand: "He drank the wine in the morning voluntarily. The wine at noon is also the same. How can I blame it?"
"Hello... despicable!" Zhu Zheng gritted his teeth.
"Why did Zhou Tianzi say this? I have already said that if I knew who you belonged to, I would kill her tomorrow and see how you belong. It's just that Zhou Tianzi didn't take it seriously and released the news carelessly. , Let him throw himself into the trap."
Zhu Zheng's voice was cold and quiet, and he said: "I also made it clear that day, now I am walking on thin ice, devoting my energy and energy to serving the common people and being a single person. If something happens to Chang Ge, I will follow him and return to my destiny. "
"Don't worry." Zhuang Ying said quietly, "General Chang is in the same condition as me. Even if you don't tell me, I will spare his life. Although the Ice Soul Gu poison is chilling to the bone, it is expected that General Chang If you are strong and healthy, and you can live for ten or eight years, that's not a problem."
Zhu Zheng said angrily in a low voice: "You want to torture, all of them are aimed at me! What are you doing to torture Chang Ge!"
"I'm curious." Zhuang Ying smiled sweetly at him, "I'm curious, how the two of you will continue in this situation. And, maybe, he hates you now, maybe how to fight each other in the future. You can't go on , and will turn around and beg me to be the king of this southern Yunnan."
Zhu Zheng's tone was cold, and he said: "King Ying has never heard of it, so it's hard to get a person's heart by force."
Zhuang Ying's face suddenly darkened, and she took a step forward to approach him: "I want to force it. Not only do I want to force it, but now I will try to see if it can be achieved by force."
She suddenly turned into a playful look, playing with a small medicine bottle with her fingertips, and said with a smile: "Zhu Zheng, I want you to kneel down and beg me to save Chang Ge."
Zhu Zheng frowned and asked, "What are you holding? Is it the antidote?"
"No." Zhuang Ying smiled, "It's poison."
"The Ice Soul Gu poison has no medicine to cure it. When the attack occurs, the whole body is cold, penetrates into the bone marrow, and hurts the heart veins. It is extremely uncomfortable. Any attack, a weak person may freeze the heart veins and be completely unable to survive. .And this bottle in my hand...is the flint flame poison. This kind of poison can relieve the temporary pain of the ice soul poison, so as not to lose the heart and go away for no reason. But..."
Zhuang Ying smiled and looked at Zhu Zheng with an unbelievable expression on his face, and said: "This flint flame Gu poison damages the heart veins, and it will break your body once you use it. But... If you don't use it, the poisonous state of the Ice Soul Gu poison You have also seen that life is worse than death. It is up to you whether you want this relief medicine or not."
Zhu Zheng's heart was full of emotions. He was thinking about many problems all of a sudden. Is what Zhuang Ying said true?Is there really no cure for the Ice Soul Gu poison?Suiyan Gu poison damages the heart, how much does it hurt?What would happen if he didn't take the flint flame Gu poison?
Seeing this, Zhuang Ying said with joy and sweetness: "What's the trouble with this? You can't live and you can't die. Last time when you made a choice, didn't you choose to die without hesitation? Even if Chang Ge's heart is broken , and let him live."
Zhu Zheng glanced at him in astonishment, only to feel that she was not on guard because she was a woman before, but now it seems that this woman is really as Chang Ge said, definitely not an ordinary woman.
"Zhu Zheng, do you want to vote? If you don't, I'll throw the flint flame poison into the river and listen to it." Zhuang Ying looked at Zhu Zheng with a smile, but kept urging her.
If he didn't choose, he would just watch Chang Ge's pain attack but could do nothing.
However, he didn't know how the flint flame poison would hurt his body, nor did he know how many of Zhuang Ying's words were true.
But one thing is certain, taking the Flame Gu Poison first, can be regarded as an extra option.Use it or not, how to use it, you can think about it later.Now he hesitated, Zhu Zheng was really afraid that Zhuang Ying would turn his back on him immediately, and would not give any more.
He clenched his fists, propped up his limp body, and prepared to prostrate.
Seeing this, Zhuang Ying said cheerfully, "Forget it, I can't stand your bowing down this week. I just want to tell you that it is indeed possible to force and persecute."
She tossed the small medicine bottle in her hand to Zhu Zheng: "I will give you this Suiyan Gu poison. The more you take, the faster you will die, so take it easy."
She smiled cleverly, turned around and went out, the silver bells all over her body jingling.However, to Zhu Zheng's ears, the jingling sound was like a silver bell chasing after his soul.
Zhu Zheng blankly picked up the medicine bottle from the couch and squeezed it into the palm of his hand.
A tall and thin young general stepped out of the shadow on the side of the bed and stood in front of Zhu Zheng.
******
17-year-old Chang Ge is lying on the soft grass with a sprig of dogtail in his mouth.
He watched the clouds rolling and relaxing in the sky, watching the sunset smudge the border of the sky a little bit, watching the crimson color slightly drunken the cheeks of the blue sky.
Today is his first victory.
When he returned, Zhu Zheng, who had become the emperor of Zhou, stood on the gate of the palace to welcome him, and helped him take off his battle robe and armor with his own hands.
Everyone praised Chang Ge for his surprise victory in the first battle, even better than his father, General Chang Chuan.
Chang Ge didn't take this praise seriously, looking at the lingering clouds passing by in the sky, but for some reason, he thought of the cold-faced Wang in his heart.
He lay on the grass thinking wildly and killing time, but suddenly saw his father's face appearing in the sky.Chang Ge's resolute look comes from his father, but when it comes to his delicate and handsome appearance, he still inherits more from his mother.
"Ah! Father." Chang Ge stood up suddenly and saluted respectfully.
"There is no need to be too polite, Chang Ge." Chang Chuan said, "This battle was fought beautifully. It was even better than when I was my father."
Chang Ge scratched his head in embarrassment, and said with a smile, "It's because my father and the Chang family taught the art of war well."
Chang Chuan heard the words, but his eyes were full of worry and anxiety.He sighed, sat down beside Chang Ge, and asked, "Chang Ge... what do you think of Chang Jiajun?"
Chang Ge raised his face, full of youthful spirit, he pointed a halberd with a dog's tail grass, and said proudly: "Chang's family goes out to fight, and they are invincible and invincible!"
Chang Chuan nodded: "You are right. It is the duty of the Chang family to fight well and defend the country."
"Yes!" Chang Ge laughed, with joy in his eyes.
"However. Monarchs and ministers should be courteous, and ministers should be loyal to the emperor. Apart from this, don't think otherwise." Chang Chuan looked at him and said, "We hold the bronze tiger talisman in our hands, and we are full of crimes of killing and fighting. Above the court, it is like walking on thin ice. If there is even the slightest thought of injustice, all kinds of ways of death... it is better to die in battle."
Chang Ge looked at his father who suddenly made strange remarks, thinking about the ancestors and generals in the family who died for no reason, and asked: "I understand that the Chang family is a sharp knife and an excellent sword, but why are they walking on thin ice in the court?" ? Shouldn’t such numerous meritorious deeds be appreciated by the monarch and admired by all the ministers?”
Chang Chuan was a little startled by his "monarch's appreciation, ten thousand ministers' admiration", immediately looked around vigilantly, and whispered: "Don't say similar words again."
Chang Ge glanced at his father suspiciously, the wind lifted the broken hair on his forehead, but it couldn't blow away his doubts.
Chang Chuan lowered his voice, and said softly: "Chang Ge... We will be the best sword in the Zhou Dynasty, but at the same time, we will also be a sword on the head of the princes of other countries. And the crime is serious, this is moral intolerance. Although we do righteous things, but what we do is disliked by the world. It is tolerated by others and disliked by the people. Therefore, since the Chang family took command, although they have made great achievements in battle, they have always One... above the court, all are besieged on all sides."
"What my father said is quite complicated. Chang Ge has never experienced the affairs of the court, so he only knows a little about it."
Chang Chuan did not explain directly, but quoted a sentence in the "Shu Zhi Ling": "From my ancestors to my descendants, I have accumulated trust in the third generation of Qin. Today, I have more than 2 soldiers, and they are powerful enough to betray. Those who are bound to die and uphold righteousness dare not insult the teachings of their ancestors to forget their ancestors[[-]]. General Meng Tian, who is righteous and loyal, still repents for killing too much, and kills himself to abide by righteousness. Therefore, it is not all to blame The affairs of the court. Conquests in the South and the North in the War, was a waste of time and money, and committed murders. The generals of the Chang family kept righteousness and felt sorry for the crimes committed. Many committed suicide, which is really a helpless act..."
Chang Chuan stroked Chang Ge's back, and said softly: "I wish that you could live in the era of unified world and no longer need to fight everywhere. You have two or three children, who will be happy under your knees and take care of you for the rest of your life..."
Father's words drifted farther and farther away, as if leaving with the rolling clouds in the sky.Chang Ge was washed by a pool of icy water, going down the cliff and flowing straight down, his whole body was icy cold.
He came to the dark night, the snow with goose feathers fluttering silently.
Father Chang Chuan knelt in the ancestral hall with his head bowed and many unfinished reasons.
Who gave Chang Chuan death?
For many years, Chang Ge just didn't want to think about it, and didn't want to delve into it.
Because he is afraid of the real answer, like a cold iron, it can pierce Chang Ge's heart in one fell swoop.
The author has something to say: [1] From "The Analects of Confucius·Bayi"
[2] This sentence comes from Cao Cao's "Shu Zhi Ling"
*Please don’t scold Sister Ying, it’s not easy for a little girl to drag Nannan alone, and you will come back and shout "Sister Ying is awesome" in the future!
☆, Suiyan
The goose-feathered snow chilled Chang Ge's body, as if a huge ice flower had bloomed in his heart, and the coldness began to penetrate his bones from the heart.It seemed that he was falling deeper and deeper into a cold abyss. The frost had curled him up so cold that his fingertips were covered with icicles.
This coldness follows like a shadow, but there is nothing to do.
A warm feeling came into the embrace, but before it could warm the heart, it froze into a boulder of frost, pressing heavily on Chang Ge's chest.This oppressive feeling made him breathless, Chang Ge stretched out his hand hopelessly, and finally woke up in this cold dream.
It turned out that this coldness was not a dream.
Chang Ge found himself lying in a strange room, surrounded by several layers of quilts, but these quilts were all like ice and snow, which made him tremble all over.On his chest, there is a copper heart furnace, and this heart furnace is the frost boulder in the dream just now.Chang Ge looked around, distracting himself from the cold.
The house is surrounded by white walls and has a bucket structure.There are some light ink paintings on the eaves.The vivid kylin is carved on the Guosong lattice door, and the wooden carvings such as dragons and colorful phoenixes are meticulously carved on the head of the beams.The furniture and furnishings in the house are not like those made in Han Dynasty, and the shapes are more flexible and exaggerated, with some decorations from the Western Regions mixed in.
He was fascinated by it, and he used it to divert his desire to think about Zhu Zheng.
A tall, thin man pushed the door lightly and walked in, holding a new bosom furnace in his hand.It was Zhang Zhiyin who came.
Chang Ge was quite surprised, and opened his mouth to ask, "Zhiyin, why is it you?"
Zhang Zhiyin walked to the bed, he was used to combing all his hair, which was a bit like "the moon is bright and the stars are sparse", but today his forehead hair was a little messed up, and some short bangs fell down.
He closed the door, turned around and found that Chang Ge had woken up, and said with a hint of surprise, "General, you're awake."
Zhang Zhiyin walked to the bed in a few steps, and said softly: "General, I have offended you." He took out the bosom that had been frozen into lumps of ice from Chang Ge's bosom, and stuffed the new warm bosom into his arms The one who often sings is hit.
The charcoal-burning bosom, after touching Changge, cooled down and was covered with frost before sticking to it for a stick of incense.The cold chest in his heart made Chang Ge cough a few times.
Zhang Zhiyin sighed in a low voice.
Chang Ge put away his quilt, coughed a few times, and then asked: "Zhi, Zhiyin, how did you find me?"
"Piao Xia was worried when he heard that the general was riding alone in southern Yunnan, so he followed him all the way. After entering southern Yunnan, he went door-to-door to inquire about the general's whereabouts. Only then did he meet the general at the home of a tea farmer by the Baishui River."
Chang Ge nodded, but let out a muffled cough: "Thank you for your hard work."
"I'll go get some charcoal fire for the general." Zhang Zhiyin felt anxious when he saw that he was really cold.
"No, there's no need." Chang Ge said, "This bosom stove won't last long. There's really no need to bother."
Chang Ge smiled at him, pretending to be relaxed: "Besides, I have already grasped the attack pattern of this cold poison. On the way I came, I had a total of two attacks, and this time it was three times. Between the three attacks, only Tolerable cold. I just had one attack and should be able to hold on for a while now."
Zhang Zhiyin's face was gloomy: "I asked the tea farmer who took you in, and the owner said that the poison in the general's body is ice soul poison, which is really rare. And this poison... seems to have no solution."
Chang Ge was disappointed: "If there is no solution, there will be no solution. Originally, this life was picked up by Zui Ling for me. After living for so long, I can still meet you, and I think it is worth it."
Zhang Zhiyin, who always had a calm face, was quite moved when he heard the words.
"The general's long halberd pierces the wind and clouds, and the movement of troops is unreliable. He takes the lead in every battle and unites his heart. He is free and easy, and he is not a false name. In today's world, the hero who sings wildly is none other than the general."
Hearing his praise, Chang Ge felt a little warmth in the bone-chilling cold, and said with some embarrassment, "I'm not as good as you say."
Zhang Zhiyin suddenly knelt down on one knee and made a big salute: "Zhiyin joined the army because he admired the general's heroic spirit and wisdom since he was a child. Being able to work together in Yizhou, he found that the general is easy-going and rewards and punishes clearly, which made my servant even more admirable. Regarding the poisonous matter, I only hate myself for not discovering the general early, and I hate myself for not being able to suffer on behalf of the general.”
Chang Ge wanted to pat him on the shoulder, but remembered that his whole body was icy cold, so he had no choice but to give up, and only said words of comfort: "This matter has nothing to do with you, you don't have to blame yourself too much. It's just that I am too weak to defend against others, and I am always fooled by others." That's all."
Zhang Zhiyin was silent for a moment, and asked, "Is the general feeling better now?"
Chang Ge nodded and said, "It's better than before, but it's still very cold."
Zhang Zhiyin seemed to be depressed, looking back and forth at Chang Ge.He wanted to speak, but lowered his eyes to give up.
His thoughts were noticed by Chang Ge, who asked, "Zhiyin...what are you thinking about?"
Zhang Zhiyin said hesitantly: "General... If there is a poison that can overcome the cold poison of the ice soul, but it will damage your body and your life, would you use it?"
Chang Ge said without hesitation, "If there is such a poison, I will definitely use it."
Then, he explained: "I'm not afraid of this kind of poisonous pain. It's just that people like us who are dancing on the tip of a knife don't know when the destiny is. It’s better to have wine to enjoy, drink to sing, follow one’s nature in the present moment, and be steadfast in the world. What’s more, for those who live and die, death is also the beginning of life[1], life and death are nothing more than life and death, so there’s nothing to be afraid of.”
not to mention……
Chang Ge recalled Zhu Zheng's complex and astonished expression again, and kept asking why he wanted to kill You Xin.
And Zhuang Yingtian said with a smile, "The general's second glass of poisonous wine may be on the way."
In the confusion and coldness, he remembered the confusion and obsession that morning... What exactly is that?
What is Chang Ge to Zhu Zheng?
He couldn't figure it out, and didn't dare to think about it, he was afraid that the answer would be like ice soul poison, chilling his heart.
If he hadn't been blown dizzy by the lingering warm wind in the south of Yunnan for a while, he would definitely not be careless and be poisoned by this ice soul Gu poison.
Chang Ge's heart was full of pain and disappointment. He looked at Zhang Zhiyin who was still kneeling on one knee and bowed his head in silence, and asked, "Zhiyin, do you have something to hide from me?"
Zhang Zhiyin took out a small clay bottle from his waist, raised his hands above his head, and said, "This is the flint flame Gu poison. This poison is not the antidote to the Ice Soul Gu poison, but after taking this poison, the whole body is full of raging and evil fire, just It can suppress the poison of Frost and Ice Soul, and relieve temporary worries... At least, it can act as usual."
Chang Ge was quite surprised: "Where did you get this flint flame Gu poison?"
Zhang Zhiyin lowered his head and lowered his eyes, and said casually, "I was asked by the tea growers in the town."
Hearing this, Chang Ge took the medicine bottle without hesitation, took out a fiery red pill and swallowed it raw.Not long after swallowing, Chang Gexuan took off all the layers of quilts on his body, as if flames were swimming under the skin, a burning sensation rose from his heart, and instantly overflowed his whole body.
This is another kind of discomfort.It seemed as if there were clusters of flames burning the internal organs, and it seemed that there were thousands of ants gnawing at the heart, lungs and bone marrow.But no matter what kind of pain, it is better than falling asleep in the boundless cold.
Chang Ge endured the pain, took a deep breath, and said: "The effect is miraculous in an instant, this poison is really effective."
Zhang Zhiyin seemed to know all about his series of painful experiences, without any surprise.He quietly put away the medicine bottle of Suiyan Gu poison, and said in a low voice, "Suiyan Gu poison is extremely poisonous. General please allow me to keep it."
Chang Ge was only focused on suppressing the burning pain of the flint flame Gu poison, and didn't care about such trivial matters at all, only nodded in agreement.
Zhang Zhiyin saluted, turned around and left the cabin.
Standing in the courtyard, he wrote the words "Submitted, An" on the wooden stick in very small characters, looking up as if waiting for something.
This is the first time Zhang Zhiyin used the guiding spirit stone.Before that, he only knew that white pigeons could tell the way, but he never knew that he could bring spirit stones to make him know people.Feeling apprehensive in his heart, he stood in the courtyard and waited for a long time, until the Lingshi in his hand was sticky and sweaty.
Suddenly, a white carrier pigeon fluttered down on the roof, cooing incessantly in its throat.

Jingzhou.
Jiangling City.General's Mansion.
General Gan Xinzhong stood in the study, with the secret report from Wuling on the table.The shape of the study is simple and simple, and the books on the shelves on both sides are mostly military books such as "Sima Fa", "Wu Zi", and "Six Secret Teachings". There is a "Complete Map of Jingzhou" hanging behind the desk in the middle.The territory of Jingzhou on this map is slightly different from the current territory of Jingzhou. It is a territory map a few years ago that merges Yuzhou and Nanyang at the top, swallows southern Yunnan and Jiaozhou at the bottom, and occupies Luling on the right.
At that time, Situ Xin, the great Sima of Jingzhou, was still alive. Outside there was Situ Xin who quelled the war, and inside there was Meihe and the reform and repair. Jingzhou ranked first among the six heroes and was thriving day by day.
The situation at that time, it is only a few years if I think about it now.Nanyang was pacified by the Great Wei, Yuzhou became self-reliant, southern Yunnan has always emphasized self-reliance, Jiaozhou completely broke away from the covenant with Jingzhou, Luling was merged into Wu State, and Jingzhou was eroded by less than half.
A light but familiar coughing sound came from outside the door. Gan Xinzhong was very familiar with the sound of footsteps and coughing. Before this person entered the door, he took the initiative to say: "Prime Minister, you are not in good health. What's the matter?" As soon as I heard it, I went to the door on my own, and there was no need for the prime minister to go there in person."
Mei and Cha had just entered the door, and were listening to Gan Xinzhong's words, they said, "If I don't move my old bones, I'm really going to die."
Gan Xinzhong took a few steps forward, and lightly supported Jingzhou Prime Minister Mei and Cha.As soon as Mei and Cha entered the door, their eyes fell on the "Complete Map of Jingzhou" in the middle, and they sighed lightly: "Xinzhong, do you still miss Haozhi?"
Gan Xinzhong helped him to sit down on the grand teacher's chair beside him, bowed his head and said: "Teacher is upright and plotted against you for the sake of peace, unfortunately he was killed, and I lost a great wing in Jingzhou."
Mei and Cha shook their heads: "If Situ Jing wants to rebel, if Hao Zhi's soul is allowed to return and he chooses again, he will still choose to rein in his horse and go north to try his best to stop his younger brother."
Gan Xinzhong agreed: "Teacher has been a soldier all his life, and died in obedience to righteousness. This is indeed the true nature of a teacher."
Mei Hecha said with emotion: "If Haozhi is still alive, and the son is restrained, he will not be so reckless."
Gan Xinzhong immediately frowned and asked: "But did the son cause any trouble?"
Mei Hecha sighed and said, "Ever since the Taoist priest of Xuanmiao Temple predicted that Mr. Shanhe would be invited to come out of the mountain by the prince, he felt that he had lost his self-esteem and hated him. Before, the palace made things difficult, and even pointed out a daughter-in-law to accompany him." Mr. Mr. couldn't bear it, and bought this miserable woman. Who knew that this woman was a deliberate trap set by Chi Risheng. This miserable woman was only a showman before, and she was still a virgin. The next day, the prince had his body checked and was furious. In a fit of anger, someone beat this innocent woman to death, and then randomly found an excuse for peace and sent the husband to southern Yunnan."
"Ridiculous! The dignified son of Jingzhou actually did such an absurd thing."
General Gan Xinzhong listened to this messy series of things, with a look of disgust on his face. He didn't know if he hated the women involved in the palace, or he hated the prince's intention to rape noble and noble celebrities, or he sympathized with this innocent woman who died tragically.
This feeling of disgust churned in his heart for a long time, and Gan Xinzhong spent great efforts to finally suppress this inexplicable disgust.He opened his mouth and asked: "In the land of southern Yunnan, there are many witches and Gus. Sir, you are a civil servant, what should you do if you die?"
Mei and Cha sighed, "Exactly."
"Where is the gentleman now? Is he still healthy?"
Mei Hecha said worriedly: "This time I came to find the general, and this is exactly what I did. Mr. was imprisoned in Lanyue Mountain Villa, and he was poisoned with poison. Go, I feel that I have offended Mr. deeply this time, and the two ordinary generals go, I am afraid that I will not be able to express the guilt of Jingzhou."
Gan Xinzhong immediately understood Mei and Cha's intentions.He saluted and said, "But according to the prime minister's order."
Mei and Cha coughed twice, and said, "It's not too late, general, hurry up and leave. If you take Shiqing with you, I'm afraid that King Dianying will mediate with you again. Shiqing is smart, so I can offer you one or two tricks."
"Yes!"

A bright moon.
Chang Ge lay in a daze for two days, only then did he feel that both the Flame Gu Poison and the Ice Soul Gu Poison on his body had been temporarily suppressed, and now he was standing in the night wind in southern Yunnan, looking up at the bright moon.
"The emperor envoys his ministers with courtesy, and the ministers serve the emperor with loyalty."
Chang Chuan's words floating to the sky came out again in this cold night in southern Yunnan.
At first, Chang Ge only thought that his father wanted to beat him, so as not to conspire against him with the military power in his hands.Looking back now, I realized my father's overtones just now.
Monarchs and ministers are different, words and deeds must not exceed the rules.
The king's heart is too heavy, and he will only hurt himself if he turns around a thousand times.
Zhang Zhiyin was worried about the Ice Soul Gu poison, so he took Chang Ge's red general's cloak and gently put it on for him.
They bid farewell to the tea farmers today, thanked them in every possible way, and bought a lot of tea cakes from southern Yunnan as companion items. They planned to set off tomorrow and leave this extremely distant land.
Chang Ge tightened his cloak smoothly, looking at the bright moon and broken stars in southern Yunnan with half reluctance and half sadness.
******
The frosty and cold moon hangs quietly in the sky, and the night wind blows away the lingering clouds around.
Zhu Zheng was full of sadness, standing in front of the window, looking up at the same cold and bright moon.
After Changge left, King Dianying left Lanyue Villa. Before leaving, he specially handcuffed Zhu Zheng in the room.He has no time to take care of himself, he only cares about his body, which he often sings so much that he doesn't think about eating and drinking.
It wasn't until two days ago that Zhu Zheng finally received a reply letter saying "has been accepted, Ann".
Zhu Zheng looked at the bright moon and sparse stars in the sky.
I don't know where Changge is and what he is thinking about.Whether his thoughts are related to himself.
I also don't know... this time, I don't know when and where I will see you again; I don't know if this misunderstanding can be resolved again.
He suddenly felt disgusted with himself.He kept saying that he wanted to protect Chang Ge, but he couldn't stop the impeachment from the government and the public; it was clear that Chang Ge had made many achievements and returned from the army, but he couldn't stop the joint attack.
In the past three years, Chang Ge no longer fought with soldiers and horses, as if facing an abyss.However, every move he makes inevitably hurts Chang Ge, including Jianping's Giant Arrow, and Southern Yunnan's Ice Soul.
Could it be that he died in the Miyagi Mutiny three years ago, and he would sing it better than he is now.
On the day of the mutiny, the heavy rain drenched him from head to toe.He was drenched in the pouring rain, but failed to make himself more aware.He hid in the cave where he once hid with Chang Ge, and his mind collapsed for three days.
He doesn't quite remember how he spent those three days. When he recalled it, he only knew that he was huddled in the cave at that time, and his heart and mind were filled with the sappy Changge.It was Chang Ge's smile, Chang Ge's cheerfulness, Chang Ge and his own bits and pieces that supported Zhu Zheng through those three days.Without him, Zhu Zheng might have lost his job on the day of the mutiny.
When he came out of the cave again, the usual sunlight in Chang'an hurt his eyes.
The founding emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, heroic and wise, ruled the world and feuded the princes.Unexpectedly, the following generations of mediocre government left many problems.As for Zhu Zheng, King Wen of Zhou, he was exhausted physically and mentally by many things and couldn't help himself.
The self-government system left by King Wu of the founding of the country made the heroes separate and sometimes had frictions. Sometimes, Zhu Zheng even felt that in a trance, this is not the rule of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but a return to the world of great struggle.
Not only the Great Zhou Dynasty, but also the princes fought for years, laboring the people and wasting money.He has long hated this kind of endless battle for years.
Situ Jing's mutiny in Miyagi gave Da Zhou a new chance.
If you don't break, you don't stand; if you don't die, you live.
This great cause is not for personal or family hatred.For the common people of the world, for the unification of the mountains and rivers, it is even more rehabilitated.Let him live in this world in the name of "Chang Ge" in a fair and aboveboard manner.
After making up his mind, he began to travel around the world, recruiting people with lofty ideals... until the last step, he bought Xuanmiao Temple and sent people to plant auspicious omens in the back garden of Jingzhou.
During this process, he inquired in every possible way, but there was no news of Changge.At first, he was afraid that the hegemony had already been achieved, and Chang Song would no longer be seen until Yizhou.
He was delighted that Chang Ge did not commit suicide and was still alive.He was lonely and Changge couldn't understand the reason, and hated him deeply.
Sometimes, Zhu Zheng would have some weird ideas in his mind, for example, it doesn't matter if he hates him, as long as Chang Ge can let Zhu Zheng stay with him.But more often, seeing Chang Ge's lonely expression, Zhu Zheng's heart was full of guilt and remorse, and he couldn't help churning.
In the past three years, Zhu Zheng regretted it all the time.
Until the day when Chang Ge flew thousands of miles overnight to scrape his bones and cure poison for him in southern Yunnan, he was moved and thought that Chang Ge had already understood his heart.
Chang Ge persuaded him to go to Yizhou, and even for a moment, Zhu Zheng was really moved.He doesn't want any redress, and he doesn't want any hegemony, he just wants to be with Chang Ge
