Chapter 2 Together: Riding"
Burning himself, quietly warming Changge.
Zhu Zheng held Chang Ge with his left hand, and gently stroked Chang Ge's hair with his right hand, recalling his initial thoughts when he pushed Chang Ge into the corridor in times of crisis.
At that time, just want him to live.
Goodbye in Jinguan City, Yizhou, when he knew that Chang Ge was still alive, besides joy, he felt a different kind of emotion.
Maybe it was because he had waited too long before, maybe it was the worst result of Chang Ge hating him.After giving it a go, Zhu Zheng showed a kind of fearless freedom.
He was deliberately captured by Chang Ge three times, and deliberately tried in every possible way.Chang Ge galloped thousands of miles to the south of Yunnan, and that kiss was forever in Zhu Zheng's heart.
Later, in the snowstorm in Jianping winter, he accompanied Chang Ge, embraced Chang Ge, listened to the sound of falling snow, and only prayed to the gods to make that night longer and longer...
He once thought it was his one-sided obsession, but he didn't expect that the random kiss between Chang Ge's fans stabilized his heart.Thinking that Chang Ge also admired him, he couldn't restrain his joy.
The third test in Jianping was the brightest day in his memory, and he memorized many songs.The one who rolled up his wide sleeves; the one who showed his forearm and drew the bow; the one who naughtily climbed sideways on the horse and came galloping... Also, the one who rushed towards Zhu Zheng with Chang Ge's shaking heart missed an arrow by an inch.
He once thought that his love for Chang Ge had already overflowed.I never thought that after the farewell, this love can be more and more.
Finally, this love is like a great river, rushing day by day, day and night.
After the farewell, Zhu Zheng slowly discovered that he had become greedy.For Chang Ge, his wish has unconsciously changed from "just living" to "owning".
Zhu Zheng gently kissed Chang Ge's hair, put his arms around his shoulders, and confessed softly, "Chang Ge, I've become greedy."
"At first, I just wanted you to live. Later...Although you belong to Yizhou and I am in Jingzhou, I always want to find various reasons to stay with you and accompany you for a while. Later...I... ..."
He lowered his head and hugged Chang Ge in his arms into his neck, as if this simple movement could comfort his restless heart.Zhu Zheng said softly: "Later, I began to want to have you..."
Saying this sentence made Zhu Zheng's heart throb.He was afraid that the loud heartbeat would wake Chang Ge up, but he couldn't restrain his surging heart.
Zhu Zheng shook Chang Ge lightly, like coaxing a sleeping child.He opened his mouth with a soft tone as if he was trying to lull him to sleep: "Chang Ge. In the past, I was always waiting. Waiting for every time you leave school, every time you enter Miyagi, every morning morning, every triumphant return , when you turn around, you can see me at a glance... until it hurts you too much."
He stroked the back of Chang Ge's head.Chang Ge's hair is thick, with a bit of stubborn rigidity, just like his resolute character.He felt the warmth of Changge in his heart, and the living Changge in his arms.
"Chang Ge. I don't want to wait any longer."
Zhu Zheng coaxed in a low voice, with a doting nasal voice: "Before... I was sorry for you, and I have many things for you. Therefore, I plan to compensate you. I will give my future I will pay you all the days."
"Chang Ge, I miss the snow in Jianping."
"Chang Ge, you have so many tactics in your heart, can you occasionally... think of me too."
"Chang Ge, I want to take you to Jiangling."
"Chang Ge, every word I say to you is sincere."
"Chang Ge, Chang Ge..."
He gently left complicated kisses on Chang Ge's hair, each kiss was solemn and pious.
"Chang Ge, let me be a little more greedy, okay?"
As Zhu Zheng spoke, his tone suddenly softened.
"...Chang Ge, I love you."
After he finished speaking frankly, his heart suddenly became very warm.This lingering words seemed to make him feel distracted just by saying them.
He had been thinking about this for a long time.
He wanted to say it long ago, but he was afraid that Chang Ge would think that this was another round of humiliation, which would make his resistance even heavier.Therefore, these words always turned around in my heart, and sank again.He doesn't need to care about other things, but he has to care about Chang Ge's mood.
There was no response to his dialogue, but it settled his bewildered and anxious heart.
Zhu Zhengyi was so engrossed and spoke so emotionally that he didn't notice at all that Chang Ge in his arms was always awake and listening quietly.

Yizhou.
Council Hall.
Liu Shande, the lord of Yizhou, is sitting on the side collapse and reading the form. On the lower left is Shangshuling Wu Zhonglian, and on the lower right is Pojun.Po Jun knelt on one knee, bowing his head guiltily.
After reading, he raised his head and sighed, "Sure enough, I can't stop it."
Po Jun replied: "Lu Ben strengthened his manpower, and carefully investigated the people who left the city. In the past few days, there was no trace of General Chang leaving the city. It is estimated that he has not left Jinguan City."
Master Liu shook his head: "Let's withdraw. I can't keep it anymore."
Po Jun lowered his head: "The last general is incompetent."
Master Liu said regretfully: "The heart is gone, how can I stay. I just hope that he will remember the kindness of Yizhou in the past and not do anything embarrassing."
He put the form gently on the coffee table beside him, and said in a low voice: "Pojun, get up now. It is said that after the day of the interception, your brother was worried and anxious, and he was not in good health. Go back soon."
Po Jun put his hands together in thanks: "Thank you, Lord."
Po Jun came out of the hall with the wounded officer's knife.
Shang Shu ordered Wu Zhonglian to cup his hands and said, "My lord, what is your plan about Jiang Daping?"
Liu Shande asked back, "How does Zhong Lian feel?"
Wu Zhonglian thought for a moment, and then he replied: "Chang Ge Yizhou is divided, and there are many beneficiaries, but it is still hard to define. Daping has always loved making friends with foreign ministers. I have warned him many times, but he still refuses to change after repeated admonition."
Liu Shande persuaded: "This time he is considered a good intention. Regardless of the source of the news, Daping is also worried about the future of Yizhou. If he is punished rashly at this time, he may cool the hearts of loyal officials. Besides, Zhong Lian also said that this matter is difficult. It’s better to put it aside for now.”
He asked again: "Does Zhong Lian know which foreign ministers Daping is familiar with?"
Wu Zhonglian replied: "I have observed this period of time, and the people who have been with him include Jiang Huairen, the head of the prime minister's house in the state of Wu, and a member of the scout regiment of the state of Wei who was replaced by Zelan. Letters and papers come and go, all three are issued and one is confidential, some are sent to Yuzhou and some are sent to Jiaozhou.”
Liu Shande said strangely: "There are everywhere, why don't you make good friends with Jingzhou?"
Wu Zhonglian shook his head and said, "I am incompetent."
Master Liu said to himself: "Changge Yizhou is centrifuged, and it is clear that Jingzhou has benefited the most... Daping has not made friends with Jingzhou. It seems that this time is really difficult to define."
He raised his head and asked, "Have you read all of Daping's secret documents?"
Wu Zhonglian nodded: "After receiving it, Nanyiguan will decipher the copy, and seal it without leaking. So far, there has been no treasonous content."
Master Liu sighed and said, "It's not worrying. Du Xiang always hated making friends with foreign ministers the most. Don't let Siqing know. Just be careful."
Wu Zhonglian took the order: "Follow the Lord's order."
******
When Ze Lan returned home and got off the car, the servant who greeted the door whispered, "Second Young Master is here."
Ze Lan nodded, and slipped the fur-collared cloak on her body to the servant, and strode towards the mansion.
In Jinguan City, Zelan's mansion is located beside Huanhua Creek.Situ Xuan loves the scenery of Huanhuaxi very much, and every time he visits, he must go to Bailuzhou to enjoy the scenery and peace of mind.
In winter, there are only yellowing reeds on the banks of the stream.The reeds are so dense that they almost flood the Guanlu Pavilion.
Situ Xuan sat alone in the water pavilion, leaning on the railing and looking into the distance.He held a gilt hexagonal hand stove wrapped in black velvet satin in his hand.When Ze Lan came, he didn't look back, he still looked at the stable water surface, and asked, "Did you send the stubborn boy back?"
Ze Lan knew very well that what he was talking about was Zhu Ruge who was captured a few days ago.No matter how much he was tortured and beaten, the boy could not utter a single word.Situ Xuan said that his temperament was very similar to Chang Ge.
Originally, when Situ Xuan ordered Zhu Ruge to be captured, this person was already in danger.However, Ruge's arrogant temperament like Changge saved his own life.
Seeing his stubborn appearance, Situ Xuan couldn't do anything.He ordered to go down, took the poison and threw it back, waiting for Chang Ge to come to ask for the antidote.
Situ Xuan had even begun to picture the scene of goodbye in his mind—now, Chang Ge had to look him in the eyes, maybe he would kneel down and beg him.
Just thinking about it, he couldn't help being happy.
"Second son. The stubborn boy is dead." Zelan replied.
"What?" Situ Xuan turned his head immediately and asked, "Didn't it mean that after taking this poison, there are still a few days left to live?"
Ze Lan shook his head slowly: "It's not poisonous. Chang Ge robbed a prisoner and intended to leave the city. At the gate of the city, he met two brothers, Zhao Tan and Zhao Yuan. Zhao Tan held the stubborn boy hostage, trying to coerce Chang Ge to stay. , he didn't want to be dragged down, so he hit the knife and died."
Situ Xuan asked eagerly, "What about Chang Ge?"
Ze Lan replied: "I only know that I entered the big medical clinic opened in southern Yunnan, and I haven't seen General Chang come out of this medical clinic since then. A few days ago, the search was extremely strict when I went out of the city, and I didn't see General Chang leave the city."
Situ Xuan nodded: "It's better to stay in Jinguan City."
He turned to sigh and said: "This stubborn boy is really good. Chang Ge was beaten in every possible way that day, and there was no news about Chang Ge. I didn't expect to die for him... No wonder, he looks so annoying. Otherwise, his temper is really attractive."
Situ Xuan regretted that the person who treated Chang Ge so sincerely died young.
Instead, he thought about whether he could die for Chang Ge.
Can, should be able.he thought silently.But he had to die with Chang Ge, or die with Chang Ge——Situ Xuan even thought that this way of dying was quite good.
Die with Chang Ge, die without regret.
Ze Lan blinked and said softly: "This subordinate believes that General Chang is no longer in Jinguan City."
Situ Xuan looked up at him.
Ze Lan explained: "The Nannan Medical Center is the largest medical center in Jinguan City. People come and go every day. Even if there is an inner room, you can't put a dead body in it, and don't bury it for a few days. In winter, although the stench is not necessarily , but there is still a little smell. In the past few days, the South Yunnan Medical Center has come and gone as usual.
Therefore, I deduce that General Chang and Stubborn Boy have already left the South Yunnan Medical Center, but how and by what means are still unknown. "
"... Zelan is right..."
Situ Xuan fumbled for the bosom stove in his hand, thinking about it, and responded.
He turned to ask: "But if you leave Jinguan City, where can Chang Ge go?"
Ze Lan replied: "The prisoner kidnapped by General Chang is from Jingzhou, and he must have gone to Jingzhou."
"People from Jingzhou?" Situ Xuan was puzzled, "He doesn't have friends from Jingzhou. Does Ze Lan know who this person is?"
Ze Lan took out a scroll from his cuff and handed it to Situ Xuan: "I got it from Lu Ben. On the night of the robbery, Po Jun ordered to take this portrait and search for people from house to house."
Situ Xuanlue unfolded the painting nonchalantly, but the person in the painting moved his heart.
--It's him!
Zhu Zheng... so he didn't die!
Now that Situ Xuan thought of the words "robbed a prisoner", he couldn't help feeling resentful.
Why is Zhu Zheng... Chang Ge who is still pestering him!
The unreconciled hole in his heart is getting bigger and bigger, almost trying to swallow all his mind.
Angrily, he crumpled the portrait and asked, "Where is this person now?"
Zelan replied: "Hu Chai and Wuhua have been with General Chang for a long time in rotation, and I recognize this person. This person is Mr. Shanhe, the prefect of Jianping in Jingzhou. After the fall of Jianping, he was captured by Zhang Zhiyin, one of the five tiger generals in Yizhou. The general’s main camp in Jianping. This time, together with General Chang, we stopped at the Southern Yunnan Medical Center, so it is expected to be all the way.”
Situ Xuan angrily threw down the gilt small bosom stove, the charcoal fire from the small stove spilled all over the ground, once the winter wind passed, the charcoal ash scattered everywhere.
"Why didn't you report this matter!"
Zelan was silent.
Situ Xuan gritted his teeth: "Since this person is the prefect of Jianping, should he return to Jingzhou now?"
Ze Lan cupped his hands and said: "Hu Chai and Wu Hua are searching, if there are traces, we will continue to follow."
General Situ Xuan slapped him against the railing, and said angrily, "Dig three feet into the ground, and I have to find this man!"
The author has something to say: **Zhengzheng, I don’t think you are greedy enough. You agreed not to be a gentleman.
☆, drink blood
Zhu Zheng has been hugging Chang Ge to keep him warm, talking with him in a low voice.When it was almost bright, he couldn't restrain himself, and instead squinted for a while.
When the boat passed Jiuwan River, it suddenly became a little anxious. The turbulent current lifted the boat to the top of the waves and fell heavily on the water.This gap suddenly dragged Zhu Zheng out of his dream.
There was no one in his arms, and the feeling of emptiness made him tremble instantly.He was worried that Chang Ge would escape, so he raised his eyes, but saw Chang Ge at a glance.
Chang Ge did not escape.Moreover, he was staring at himself with his back against the fishing window.Seeing Zhu Zheng wake up suddenly, Chang Ge immediately looked away, pretending not to pay attention.
Zhu Zheng's heart sank, and he felt cold sweat on his back.Chang Ge woke up before him, and when he woke up, he should have found Zhu Zheng holding him the whole time.Could it be that this rather sudden action... annoyed him even more.
He quietly observed Chang Ge to see if there was any abnormality in his expression.
Chang Ge's hair, which was a little messy yesterday, has been tied up again, and the cold wind from the fishing window blows his red hairband.He sat quietly, looking at the green hills on both banks and the advective river, his face was calm as usual.
Zhu Zheng looked out, and happened to see the fishing boat leisurely, and Jiangjunyan on the steep mountain top was slowly exiting the view from the fishing window.
It turned out that he had already arrived in Zigui.Not far ahead is Yiling.
Zhu Zheng turned his eyes back from the scenery outside the window, and found that Chang Ge seemed to be peeking again.Seeing him turning his head, Chang Ge immediately looked away again.
Chang Ge, who has always been simple and easy to understand, now peeps one after another, which makes Zhu Zheng puzzled.Are you still angry with yesterday?Or are you completely disappointed in him?
The two had their own concerns and remained silent.The atmosphere is rather awkward.
Chang Ge looked at the rolling peaks and cliffs on both sides of the river, and thought of Ru Ge's smiling face faintly in his heart.He said: "The last time I came here, it was just like Ru Ge, who went on a survey in Yiling."
Zhu Zhengying said: "In a world of great controversy, fate is like duckweed. If there is no distinction between Yizhou and Jingzhou, you and I will not be blocked, like a song..."
He stopped talking and did not continue.
Chang Ge was still facing the cold wind, trying to wake himself up again.
Chang Ge sighed, and said softly: "The feudal lords have always been entrenched. Not only Ru Ge, but also Zhi Yin's brothers who were folded in this river. Also, when going out for the Great Zhou, the battle of Nanjun burned all the boats..."
The stretching green hills on both sides of the strait are completely different in Chang Ge's eyes.Dajiang Canyon is not a simple moat.It is the battlefield of iron horses and golden swords, and it is the past full of flames.He can't forget the big and small battles in Jingzhou before, let alone the soldiers who stood shoulder to shoulder in these battles.Including Cantabile.
Chang Ge lowered his head, and said slowly: "When will the blood of the soldiers of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains be returned from the Southern Expedition and the Northern War?"
Zhu Zheng followed his words and said, "Chang Ge, I have a wish."
Chang Ge waved his hand, blocking his words: "I know."
Zhu Zheng said, "No, you don't know."
Chang Ge finally turned around and stared at Zhu Zheng, his eye sockets were still moist, like peach blossoms after rain.He asked: "What is your wish, sir? But please enlighten me."
Zhu Zheng looked straight into these lovely eyes, and said sincerely: "I want to rule the country and stop the war with my body."
Chang Ge asked: "How to unify?"
Zhu Zheng didn't answer directly, but instead asked, "Chang Ge, do you remember that the Taixue learned the principles of governance, power, and law?"
Chang Ge nodded: "I remember."
Zhu Zheng took a step forward, sat next to Chang Ge, and said softly: "The Great Zhou is dominated by Shuzhi, relying too much on checks and balances, and the courtiers are too heavy, the two sides struggle, and there is chaos. Moreover, once an important official is lost, Dazai Situ Jing Immediately turn your hands into clouds and your hands into rain, and wipe them out in one fell swoop."
Often sing without speaking.He knew who the missing end was.
Zhu Zheng went on to say: "Jingzhou was originally at the peak of the sun. On the left, there was the Great Sima Situxuan who ruled the country, and on the right there were the Prime Minister Mei and the wise and honest government. Why did it decline? The power is in decline. It is just like the first emperor and the founding emperor of Zhou Dynasty, King Wu of Zhou. .Often one or two people will become powerful, and they will definitely be able to establish a country. However, if the powerful person dies, the power will no longer be there, and it will collapse."
Chang Ge asked, "What does this have to do with unification?"
Zhu Zheng explained: "Unification requires power. Outside there are military generals who will stabilize the country, and inside there are virtuous and capable ministers. The combination of the two will determine the world."
Chang Ge was puzzled: "Mr. Ke said just now that it is difficult to govern a situation for a long time. Those who have become a power will die, and the power will no longer exist."
Zhu Zheng nodded in agreement: "After the country is established, it needs to be restructured, and there is no need to divide the feudal system. Go away from the rule of man, establish the rule of law, use the law to rule the country, lighten the imperial power and rule by man, so that it can last for a long time. The country is unified, the rule of law is strict, everyone lives and works in peace and contentment, and the society is stable. Peaceful, there will be no more battles for hegemony."
Chang Ge asked: "According to what you said, the person who reforms the system is also the key. Is there anyone who reforms the system?"
"Have."
Without hesitation, Zhu Zheng said bluntly: "I have a complete layout. There is only one thing missing."
Chang Ge understood what he said and bowed his head in silence.His ponytail lost its strength and fell to his neck.
Zhu Zheng persuaded: "Chang Ge. I don't want to coerce you anymore. I have coerced you too much before. If you don't want to, I will transfer this situation to others and walk the world with you."
Chang Ge was silent for a moment, then said in a low voice: "Help Xu to be a virtuous and talented person, and be the king of the world."
Zhu Zheng's heart trembled.When I was young, Chang Ge always helped Xu long and help Xu short, but after the goodbye, Chang Ge has not called this name for a long time.
Seeing that he didn't answer, Chang Ge turned to look out of the window and asked, "Sir, do you know what to do with righteousness and original heart?"
The river wind was bleak, Zhu Zheng looked at the strong and sad shoulder in front of him, and didn't know whether the question was a peach on a branch or a moon in the water.
He collected himself and answered truthfully: "I... when faced with righteousness and true heart, I thought about checks and balances. Unexpectedly, my family, country, world and loved ones are all lost."
Seeing Chang Ge's shoulder tremble, he seemed quite touched.
Zhu Zheng felt strange, Chang Ge had always avoided his thoughts, why was he suddenly moved now?
Zhu Zheng went on to say: "Chang Ge. Do you still remember that Jianping was facing the wine under the moon, and you ask me, why do I have to work hard again and walk on eggshells?"
Chang Ge didn't look back, just nodded: "I remember."
Zhu Zhengdao: "Great righteousness and original heart. Since you can't have both, why not follow your original heart and give it a go. Fake fame in the world, don't worry about it."
Chang Ge watched the rushing river and the green hills on both sides.There is a long wind blowing across the river, sending the returning swan geese straight to Qingyun.
"Right and wrong are discussed behind the scenes, and the mountains and rivers are determined with loyalty."
After Chang Ge finished reading, he turned around and happened to see Zhu Zheng sitting beside him with a sincere face.He looked at the person in front of him and asked in a low voice: "Your will definitely not."
Zhu Zheng stared into his eyes. Chang Ge had asked this question many, many times during the previous arguments between the two.Sometimes it is letters, sometimes it is helpless obedience.But every time, whenever Zhu Zheng made a decision, Chang Ge would stand by his side regardless of the reason.
The appearance of Chang Ge supporting Zhu Zheng at all costs also moved his heart.
He slowly shook Chang Ge's forearm, conveying his sincerity and firmness: "It's decided."
Chang Ge looked at him with a serious face, and said softly: "The emperor's will has been decided, I am willing to go through life and death, just to fight for the king for my king."
He knew what it meant to agree to Zhu Zheng at this time.He has always known.
He rebelled against Yizhou because of the prison robbery. Hearing what Zhu Zheng said, he will rebel against Jingzhou with him in the future.This unkind and unrighteous "hero in troubled times", he must be the one.
Even though Zhu Zheng in front of him was dressed in white, Chang Ge still recalled how he used to rule in black and luxurious clothes.The current world of great contention is not what he wants, nor is it what Song wants.
Now that Zhu Zheng had made up his mind, he stepped forward for him and took the lead.If Zhu Zheng accidentally falls short, he will accompany Zhu Zheng to bear the eternal infamy and never recover.
Even, after hearing the truth from Little Midnight yesterday, Chang Ge thought a little further—if anything happened, he would be willing to die for Zhu Zheng.
After three years, I never thought that Zhu Zheng would be able to call "My King" again after listening to Chang Ge.
Chang Ge saw something burning in Zhu Zheng's eyes. He didn't know whether it was the expectation of the vision for the future, or the emotion he had obtained through hard work.
"Chang Ge, you and I form an alliance."
******
The old boatman tossed and turned for a long time, but he couldn't find the wine cup.In the end, it was Chang Ge who had quick eyes and quick hands, saw a piece of bamboo pole, drew the Sigui sword and cut a piece, removed the end of the bamboo pole, and made a bamboo tube wine cup.
Zhu Zheng was quite satisfied and said, "Ru Ge also participated in our alliance."
He asked the boatman for some homemade wine, and the two of them went into the cabin together, and put the wine in the middle of the horizontal bench in front of the fishing window.
Chang Ge knelt on one knee on the left, and Zhu Zheng knelt on the right.
Outside the fishing window, there are large advective rivers and high gorges and steep peaks.
A group of swan geese ride the wind and pass by the river scene in the window.
Zhu Zheng stretched out his left hand, and said his oath of alliance word by word with the awe-inspiring wind:
"The heroic feelings are magnificent, and the long song is full of swords. Ning my family and country, and my rivers and mountains."
Chang Ge looked at the tough fire in his eyes, and held Zhu Zheng's left hand with his left hand.For some reason, Chang Ge hesitated for a moment, took a deep breath, and then said slowly:
"Death and life are broad..."
He only uttered the first few words, and saw Zhu Zheng startled suddenly, looking into his eyes, both shocked and joyful.
Chang Ge continued to swear: "...Speak with Zicheng. Hold your hand and grow old together with Zi."
This sentence is like the wind passing through the south, igniting the spark in Zhu Zheng's eyes into a prairie fire.He was surprised and delighted, and felt that his mood was about to rush to the sky.
Zhu Zheng asked anxiously, "What did you say just now?"
Chang Ge shifted his gaze: ""Beifeng·Beating Drums" is the first poem about soldiers and horses."
Zhu Zheng strengthened his hand, almost trying to pull Chang Ge into his side: "Sir, no."
Chang Ge gritted his teeth and pulled back the hand that was about to be pulled by Zhu Zheng, and said, "It's a blood alliance, don't interrupt it."
It was only then that Zhu Zheng suppressed his mood, and only let his thoughts and thoughts rise on the wind, sometimes going eastward with the current, and sometimes flying across the sky.There was uncontrollable joy in his heart, as well as uncontrollable pride.
He just wanted to run around and announce to the world: This is his regular song, and from then on, it will only be his regular song.Heroic and valiant, peerless.
Even when he saw Chang Ge solemnly drawing out the dagger, he felt extraordinarily sweet.
Chang Singer held the short knife and said with a smile, "I'm going to strike, sir, don't be afraid."
Zhu Zheng said firmly: "For you, ten million knives are worth it."
Chang Ge lowered his head and smiled, and slashed Zhu Zheng's left forearm with the dagger.This knife happened to land on Zhu Zheng's heart-biting poisonous scar.
A little blood dripped into the bamboo tube placed under the hands of the two of them.
The barrel was full of wine, and Zhu Zheng's blood became a red flower in the wine.
Chang Ge raised the saber again, he thought for a moment, and also scratched on the heart-biting Gu poison scar on his left arm.
Chang Ge's blood dripped into the wine, warmly greeted Zhu Zhengfang's drop of blood.Both of them stared at the bamboo tube, watching their blood merging together quickly.
Chang Ge put away the dagger and drew his hand.Zhu Zheng was still a little reluctant, and squeezed deliberately before pulling away.
Chang Ge gave him a warning look, and drew Zhu Zheng's attention back to the alliance: "There is only one cup, so I have to drink it one after another."
Zhu Zheng nodded regretfully: "If you have two glasses, you can still drink a lot of wine."
Chang Ge gave him a white look: "This is a blood alliance, not a forever friendship."
Zhu Zheng smiled and said, "It's the same."
Chang Ge ignored the teasing meaning in his words, raised his head and drank half a bottle of wine with two people's blood on it.He handed the bamboo tube to Zhu Zheng, and Zhu Zheng drank the other half of the wine.
After drinking, Chang Ge sat on the side of the boat in a relaxed manner, looking much lighter.
Zhu Zheng bowed his head and smiled slightly: "The alliance is over, I can talk about that poem with the general."
Chang Ge had already forgotten about it, and asked casually, "He Shi?"
Zhu Zheng pulled him violently, pulling Chang Ge into his arms.He held Chang Ge tightly and whispered in his ear, "Poems of soldiers and horses."
Chang Ge instantly understood what he meant.
Last night, he originally wanted to lure the Ice Soul Gu poison to attack, but he didn't expect that Jingzhou had already warmed up, and all kinds of blows turned out to be ineffective.Helpless, he had no choice but to pretend to be poisonous in the middle of the night. He just wanted to trick him into undoing his belt and escape by himself.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Zheng took the Suiyan Gu poison for himself without hesitation, which made him feel unbearable.This hesitation, but accidentally listened to Xiao Bansu Zhuzheng's heartfelt voice.
It turns out that this is not a one-way relationship.
He has liked Zhu Zheng for too long, even to the point where he has no bottom line.Zhu Zheng hurt him and abused him, and Chang Ge couldn't hate the suave Zhu Zheng in his heart.As a result, after hearing a little bit of Zhu Zheng's heartfelt thoughts, he immediately lost his head and expressed his aspirations with poems.
When quoting "Beifeng·Beating the Drum", he still hid some thoughts, and at most insisted that it was a poem about soldiers and horses.
However, Chang Ge only thought that she was affectionate and humble, but underestimated Zhu Zheng's affection.
Zhu Zheng pulled him to sit in his arms, hugged Chang Ge tightly, and then asked: "Does the general still say this is a poem about soldiers and horses?"
Chang Ge was suddenly drawn very close, his ears blushed in embarrassment, but he still insisted: "It's the poem of soldiers and horses."
Zhu Zheng looked at him and slowly shook his head: "The general misunderstood, sir teach you."
Chang Ge subconsciously knew that he was going to be rude again, put his elbow on Zhu Zheng's chest, lowered his voice and shouted: "Don't be rude, other people will see it."
Zhu Zheng tilted his head and smiled.
Chang Ge, who is not afraid of anything, is actually shy.
Zhu Zheng pressed Chang Ge's resisting elbow with his left hand, and pulled him closer. With his right hand raised, his wide sleeve happened to cover Chang Ge in his arms.Chang Ge's slight body temperature instantly disrupted his heartbeat, causing him to feel excited for no reason.
He looked at Chang Ge in his arms, and said in a low voice: "The general is ashamed, sir, cover it for you."
This kiss is different from the sentimental confession in southern Yunnan.Zhu Zheng kissed more affectionately, but less eagerly, as if the sky is forever and the water is flowing.What surprised him even more was that Chang Ge didn't struggle at all this time.
After carefully tasting Chang Ge's lips, he also kissed Chang Ge's handsome eyebrows, trembling eyelashes, and blushing cheeks.
He kissed Chang Ge deeply, and after Zhu Zheng left him, Chang Ge continued to chase after him, murmuring "Your Majesty" with a confused nasal sound.
Zhu Zheng stopped him and stared straight into Chang Ge's eyes: "What did you call me?"
There was mist from the river in Chang Ge's eyes. He held Zhu Zheng's face in his arms and called out, "Your Majesty."
This seems to be the first time Chang Ge has honestly responded to his feelings for Zhou Tianzi.Zhu Zheng felt that the strings in his heart were broken instantly, and he rushed forward and responded with a bit of arrogance.
He kissed passionately and impatiently, his heart was full of sweetness after years of hard work.
Chang Ge finally confessed that in his heart, Zhu Zheng was the only one.
After passing Yiling, the great river has gone steep and swift, leaving only the calm blue waves.
There is a flat boat on the river, going down the river, both sides are full of fantastic and wonderful scenery, but the two people in the cabin have no intention of enjoying the scenery.Covered by wide sleeves, it is the secret of the two lingering.
The author has something to say: **The most romantic thing is not that you and I share the same mind, but that we share the same goals and die together
☆, wish
Zhu Zheng finally got his wish and brought Chang Ge back to Guixin's old residence.
The prime minister is still in the Yunxi palace in Baling, and has not yet moved back.After Yiling was breached, people in Jiangling City were anxious, fearing that the Yizhou army would kill them down the river, and the people in the city would flee.
This formerly prosperous capital of Jingzhou is now like a dead city.
Zhu Zheng stepped on the fallen leaves on the deserted street, feeling that the bleak east wind was so gentle.
He led Chang Ge and knocked on the door of Guixin's former residence.
The naughty Youqing came to welcome the door. He quietly glanced at Chang Ge, and couldn't help saying happily: "Like, really like! It's exactly the same as the painting!"
Chang Ge was puzzled, and asked rather strangely: "What really looks like?"
Zhu Zheng pursed his lips and smiled, "Youqing, take the general to see."
Youqing was happy, and responded loudly: "Okay!"
He was extremely clever, turned to Chang Ge, and said, "General, please follow me."
Chang Ge nodded, followed You Qing around the screen wall on the left, and walked towards the inside of the mansion.He took two steps, but saw that Zhu Zheng was still standing there.Chang Ge was puzzled, turned around and asked, "Sir, aren't you going?"
Zhu Zheng looked at him softly and said, "You go first. I still have some things to do."
Then Chang Ge followed You Qing and walked towards the inner courtyard.
After a few steps, Chang Ge suddenly realized that the princes Zhu Zhengtong had complained about treated him badly and suffered great grievances in Jingzhou, all of which were deceitful.
If this is the case, why did he reward him with such a huge courtyard, and even arrange it so exquisitely.
Chang Ge followed You Qing three times and two times, walked quite a distance, and then found a small study in a hidden bamboo forest.
You Qing smiled at him, and introduced: "This study is connected to Mr.'s inner room, and people are never allowed to enter it. I won't go in. The general can look at it by himself."
He folded his hands and stood obediently on one side, while Chang Ge took a step, walked through the whirling bamboo forest, and pushed open the lattice window door of this simple study.
Open the door of the study, and there is a wide window facing you. The window is now set up, and you can see the beautiful scenery of the green lake outside the window.The river is sparkling, the sunlight diffuses from the water surface, and there are brilliant lights everywhere.
A corridor stretches over the lake, leading to a small building in the middle of the lake.
"It's so elegant..." Chang Ge looked at the rather sentimental scenery outside the window, and remembered the military camp where he and Bu Xing made do in Yizhou.
After enjoying the view of the lake, Chang Ge turned his eyes away from the view outside the window, and his eyes fell on a large piece of bamboo slips and books at the door.The books were piled up like a hill, blocking him from having nowhere to go.
"Why such a mess!" Chang Ge sighed.Zhu Zheng is not a messy person, on the contrary, he has high requirements for cleanliness.
He picked up a few books at random, trying to help put them on the bookshelf, but found that the bookshelf was full.
"Isn't it on the bookshelf?" Chang Ge felt suspicious, flipping through it——
These few books are all about southern Yunnan and Gu poison books.His heart was touched, and he searched carefully in the pile of books, and found that every book was related to Gu poison in southern Yunnan, and it seemed that they had been roughly turned over, because the hasty flipping made it a mess.
——Is it because of the Ice Soul Gu Poison and Flame Flame Gu Poison that I got...
Chang Ge silently lowered her head, feeling deeply guilty for doubting Zhu Zheng for a moment.He sighed, and gently placed the book in his hand on the pile of books.
He looked up, but was caught by the faint portrait behind the bookshelf [1].
Chang Ge only vaguely saw red.He stood up, bypassed the pile of books on the ground, and walked through several rows of bookshelves. When he saw the painting clearly, his heart was touched.
It is him in the picture.It was him when he was young.
Chang Ge on the painting is wearing a flamboyant red dress.In the painting, the teenager wears a high ponytail tied with a red ribbon, and wide sleeves tied with a white ribbon, showing his fair forearm and holding a bow.
This is what he looked like when he was a student.Chang Ge tasted this picture scroll, thinking in his heart: Why does Zhu Zheng remember?Still painted into a scroll?
He suddenly understood, and suddenly looked back.
want to see him.
Want to see him, want to ask him.
And... want to kiss him.
As soon as this thought popped up in Chang Ge's mind, his ears burned red.Chang Ge didn't dare to stay in this study anymore, opened the door and went out.
There was a servant boy outside the door, he was about sixteen or seventeen years old, but he looked handsome and quiet.He saluted gracefully and said, "I am Jing Yun. Please have a meal with General Chang."
Jing Yun took him to the side hall for dinner, there was a bunch of food on the round table, homely, but it was all his favorite food.
Chang Ge hadn't seen Zhu Zheng for a long time, so he asked, "Where's your husband?"
Jing Yun replied: "Sir, I have something to do, let the general eat first."
Chang Ge asked: "Has he eaten?"
Jing Yun replied: "Mr. is afraid that the general will be worried, so I have used it first."
Hearing this answer, Chang Ge was quite unhappy.He asked Chang Ge to go to see the paintings by himself, but he went to eat first.
However, in a short while, Chang Ge has put this boredom behind him.He hasn't had a good meal for several days, but this meal that suits his appetite is full of flavor and has a long aftertaste.
After dinner, Jing Yun seemed to understand his thoughts very well, and led Chang Ge to take a bath again.
The bathing place of Guixin's former residence, unexpectedly
Zhu Zheng held Chang Ge with his left hand, and gently stroked Chang Ge's hair with his right hand, recalling his initial thoughts when he pushed Chang Ge into the corridor in times of crisis.
At that time, just want him to live.
Goodbye in Jinguan City, Yizhou, when he knew that Chang Ge was still alive, besides joy, he felt a different kind of emotion.
Maybe it was because he had waited too long before, maybe it was the worst result of Chang Ge hating him.After giving it a go, Zhu Zheng showed a kind of fearless freedom.
He was deliberately captured by Chang Ge three times, and deliberately tried in every possible way.Chang Ge galloped thousands of miles to the south of Yunnan, and that kiss was forever in Zhu Zheng's heart.
Later, in the snowstorm in Jianping winter, he accompanied Chang Ge, embraced Chang Ge, listened to the sound of falling snow, and only prayed to the gods to make that night longer and longer...
He once thought it was his one-sided obsession, but he didn't expect that the random kiss between Chang Ge's fans stabilized his heart.Thinking that Chang Ge also admired him, he couldn't restrain his joy.
The third test in Jianping was the brightest day in his memory, and he memorized many songs.The one who rolled up his wide sleeves; the one who showed his forearm and drew the bow; the one who naughtily climbed sideways on the horse and came galloping... Also, the one who rushed towards Zhu Zheng with Chang Ge's shaking heart missed an arrow by an inch.
He once thought that his love for Chang Ge had already overflowed.I never thought that after the farewell, this love can be more and more.
Finally, this love is like a great river, rushing day by day, day and night.
After the farewell, Zhu Zheng slowly discovered that he had become greedy.For Chang Ge, his wish has unconsciously changed from "just living" to "owning".
Zhu Zheng gently kissed Chang Ge's hair, put his arms around his shoulders, and confessed softly, "Chang Ge, I've become greedy."
"At first, I just wanted you to live. Later...Although you belong to Yizhou and I am in Jingzhou, I always want to find various reasons to stay with you and accompany you for a while. Later...I... ..."
He lowered his head and hugged Chang Ge in his arms into his neck, as if this simple movement could comfort his restless heart.Zhu Zheng said softly: "Later, I began to want to have you..."
Saying this sentence made Zhu Zheng's heart throb.He was afraid that the loud heartbeat would wake Chang Ge up, but he couldn't restrain his surging heart.
Zhu Zheng shook Chang Ge lightly, like coaxing a sleeping child.He opened his mouth with a soft tone as if he was trying to lull him to sleep: "Chang Ge. In the past, I was always waiting. Waiting for every time you leave school, every time you enter Miyagi, every morning morning, every triumphant return , when you turn around, you can see me at a glance... until it hurts you too much."
He stroked the back of Chang Ge's head.Chang Ge's hair is thick, with a bit of stubborn rigidity, just like his resolute character.He felt the warmth of Changge in his heart, and the living Changge in his arms.
"Chang Ge. I don't want to wait any longer."
Zhu Zheng coaxed in a low voice, with a doting nasal voice: "Before... I was sorry for you, and I have many things for you. Therefore, I plan to compensate you. I will give my future I will pay you all the days."
"Chang Ge, I miss the snow in Jianping."
"Chang Ge, you have so many tactics in your heart, can you occasionally... think of me too."
"Chang Ge, I want to take you to Jiangling."
"Chang Ge, every word I say to you is sincere."
"Chang Ge, Chang Ge..."
He gently left complicated kisses on Chang Ge's hair, each kiss was solemn and pious.
"Chang Ge, let me be a little more greedy, okay?"
As Zhu Zheng spoke, his tone suddenly softened.
"...Chang Ge, I love you."
After he finished speaking frankly, his heart suddenly became very warm.This lingering words seemed to make him feel distracted just by saying them.
He had been thinking about this for a long time.
He wanted to say it long ago, but he was afraid that Chang Ge would think that this was another round of humiliation, which would make his resistance even heavier.Therefore, these words always turned around in my heart, and sank again.He doesn't need to care about other things, but he has to care about Chang Ge's mood.
There was no response to his dialogue, but it settled his bewildered and anxious heart.
Zhu Zhengyi was so engrossed and spoke so emotionally that he didn't notice at all that Chang Ge in his arms was always awake and listening quietly.
******
Yizhou.
Council Hall.
Liu Shande, the lord of Yizhou, is sitting on the side collapse and reading the form. On the lower left is Shangshuling Wu Zhonglian, and on the lower right is Pojun.Po Jun knelt on one knee, bowing his head guiltily.
After reading, he raised his head and sighed, "Sure enough, I can't stop it."
Po Jun replied: "Lu Ben strengthened his manpower, and carefully investigated the people who left the city. In the past few days, there was no trace of General Chang leaving the city. It is estimated that he has not left Jinguan City."
Master Liu shook his head: "Let's withdraw. I can't keep it anymore."
Po Jun lowered his head: "The last general is incompetent."
Master Liu said regretfully: "The heart is gone, how can I stay. I just hope that he will remember the kindness of Yizhou in the past and not do anything embarrassing."
He put the form gently on the coffee table beside him, and said in a low voice: "Pojun, get up now. It is said that after the day of the interception, your brother was worried and anxious, and he was not in good health. Go back soon."
Po Jun put his hands together in thanks: "Thank you, Lord."
Po Jun came out of the hall with the wounded officer's knife.
Shang Shu ordered Wu Zhonglian to cup his hands and said, "My lord, what is your plan about Jiang Daping?"
Liu Shande asked back, "How does Zhong Lian feel?"
Wu Zhonglian thought for a moment, and then he replied: "Chang Ge Yizhou is divided, and there are many beneficiaries, but it is still hard to define. Daping has always loved making friends with foreign ministers. I have warned him many times, but he still refuses to change after repeated admonition."
Liu Shande persuaded: "This time he is considered a good intention. Regardless of the source of the news, Daping is also worried about the future of Yizhou. If he is punished rashly at this time, he may cool the hearts of loyal officials. Besides, Zhong Lian also said that this matter is difficult. It’s better to put it aside for now.”
He asked again: "Does Zhong Lian know which foreign ministers Daping is familiar with?"
Wu Zhonglian replied: "I have observed this period of time, and the people who have been with him include Jiang Huairen, the head of the prime minister's house in the state of Wu, and a member of the scout regiment of the state of Wei who was replaced by Zelan. Letters and papers come and go, all three are issued and one is confidential, some are sent to Yuzhou and some are sent to Jiaozhou.”
Liu Shande said strangely: "There are everywhere, why don't you make good friends with Jingzhou?"
Wu Zhonglian shook his head and said, "I am incompetent."
Master Liu said to himself: "Changge Yizhou is centrifuged, and it is clear that Jingzhou has benefited the most... Daping has not made friends with Jingzhou. It seems that this time is really difficult to define."
He raised his head and asked, "Have you read all of Daping's secret documents?"
Wu Zhonglian nodded: "After receiving it, Nanyiguan will decipher the copy, and seal it without leaking. So far, there has been no treasonous content."
Master Liu sighed and said, "It's not worrying. Du Xiang always hated making friends with foreign ministers the most. Don't let Siqing know. Just be careful."
Wu Zhonglian took the order: "Follow the Lord's order."
******
When Ze Lan returned home and got off the car, the servant who greeted the door whispered, "Second Young Master is here."
Ze Lan nodded, and slipped the fur-collared cloak on her body to the servant, and strode towards the mansion.
In Jinguan City, Zelan's mansion is located beside Huanhua Creek.Situ Xuan loves the scenery of Huanhuaxi very much, and every time he visits, he must go to Bailuzhou to enjoy the scenery and peace of mind.
In winter, there are only yellowing reeds on the banks of the stream.The reeds are so dense that they almost flood the Guanlu Pavilion.
Situ Xuan sat alone in the water pavilion, leaning on the railing and looking into the distance.He held a gilt hexagonal hand stove wrapped in black velvet satin in his hand.When Ze Lan came, he didn't look back, he still looked at the stable water surface, and asked, "Did you send the stubborn boy back?"
Ze Lan knew very well that what he was talking about was Zhu Ruge who was captured a few days ago.No matter how much he was tortured and beaten, the boy could not utter a single word.Situ Xuan said that his temperament was very similar to Chang Ge.
Originally, when Situ Xuan ordered Zhu Ruge to be captured, this person was already in danger.However, Ruge's arrogant temperament like Changge saved his own life.
Seeing his stubborn appearance, Situ Xuan couldn't do anything.He ordered to go down, took the poison and threw it back, waiting for Chang Ge to come to ask for the antidote.
Situ Xuan had even begun to picture the scene of goodbye in his mind—now, Chang Ge had to look him in the eyes, maybe he would kneel down and beg him.
Just thinking about it, he couldn't help being happy.
"Second son. The stubborn boy is dead." Zelan replied.
"What?" Situ Xuan turned his head immediately and asked, "Didn't it mean that after taking this poison, there are still a few days left to live?"
Ze Lan shook his head slowly: "It's not poisonous. Chang Ge robbed a prisoner and intended to leave the city. At the gate of the city, he met two brothers, Zhao Tan and Zhao Yuan. Zhao Tan held the stubborn boy hostage, trying to coerce Chang Ge to stay. , he didn't want to be dragged down, so he hit the knife and died."
Situ Xuan asked eagerly, "What about Chang Ge?"
Ze Lan replied: "I only know that I entered the big medical clinic opened in southern Yunnan, and I haven't seen General Chang come out of this medical clinic since then. A few days ago, the search was extremely strict when I went out of the city, and I didn't see General Chang leave the city."
Situ Xuan nodded: "It's better to stay in Jinguan City."
He turned to sigh and said: "This stubborn boy is really good. Chang Ge was beaten in every possible way that day, and there was no news about Chang Ge. I didn't expect to die for him... No wonder, he looks so annoying. Otherwise, his temper is really attractive."
Situ Xuan regretted that the person who treated Chang Ge so sincerely died young.
Instead, he thought about whether he could die for Chang Ge.
Can, should be able.he thought silently.But he had to die with Chang Ge, or die with Chang Ge——Situ Xuan even thought that this way of dying was quite good.
Die with Chang Ge, die without regret.
Ze Lan blinked and said softly: "This subordinate believes that General Chang is no longer in Jinguan City."
Situ Xuan looked up at him.
Ze Lan explained: "The Nannan Medical Center is the largest medical center in Jinguan City. People come and go every day. Even if there is an inner room, you can't put a dead body in it, and don't bury it for a few days. In winter, although the stench is not necessarily , but there is still a little smell. In the past few days, the South Yunnan Medical Center has come and gone as usual.
Therefore, I deduce that General Chang and Stubborn Boy have already left the South Yunnan Medical Center, but how and by what means are still unknown. "
"... Zelan is right..."
Situ Xuan fumbled for the bosom stove in his hand, thinking about it, and responded.
He turned to ask: "But if you leave Jinguan City, where can Chang Ge go?"
Ze Lan replied: "The prisoner kidnapped by General Chang is from Jingzhou, and he must have gone to Jingzhou."
"People from Jingzhou?" Situ Xuan was puzzled, "He doesn't have friends from Jingzhou. Does Ze Lan know who this person is?"
Ze Lan took out a scroll from his cuff and handed it to Situ Xuan: "I got it from Lu Ben. On the night of the robbery, Po Jun ordered to take this portrait and search for people from house to house."
Situ Xuanlue unfolded the painting nonchalantly, but the person in the painting moved his heart.
--It's him!
Zhu Zheng... so he didn't die!
Now that Situ Xuan thought of the words "robbed a prisoner", he couldn't help feeling resentful.
Why is Zhu Zheng... Chang Ge who is still pestering him!
The unreconciled hole in his heart is getting bigger and bigger, almost trying to swallow all his mind.
Angrily, he crumpled the portrait and asked, "Where is this person now?"
Zelan replied: "Hu Chai and Wuhua have been with General Chang for a long time in rotation, and I recognize this person. This person is Mr. Shanhe, the prefect of Jianping in Jingzhou. After the fall of Jianping, he was captured by Zhang Zhiyin, one of the five tiger generals in Yizhou. The general’s main camp in Jianping. This time, together with General Chang, we stopped at the Southern Yunnan Medical Center, so it is expected to be all the way.”
Situ Xuan angrily threw down the gilt small bosom stove, the charcoal fire from the small stove spilled all over the ground, once the winter wind passed, the charcoal ash scattered everywhere.
"Why didn't you report this matter!"
Zelan was silent.
Situ Xuan gritted his teeth: "Since this person is the prefect of Jianping, should he return to Jingzhou now?"
Ze Lan cupped his hands and said: "Hu Chai and Wu Hua are searching, if there are traces, we will continue to follow."
General Situ Xuan slapped him against the railing, and said angrily, "Dig three feet into the ground, and I have to find this man!"
The author has something to say: **Zhengzheng, I don’t think you are greedy enough. You agreed not to be a gentleman.
☆, drink blood
Zhu Zheng has been hugging Chang Ge to keep him warm, talking with him in a low voice.When it was almost bright, he couldn't restrain himself, and instead squinted for a while.
When the boat passed Jiuwan River, it suddenly became a little anxious. The turbulent current lifted the boat to the top of the waves and fell heavily on the water.This gap suddenly dragged Zhu Zheng out of his dream.
There was no one in his arms, and the feeling of emptiness made him tremble instantly.He was worried that Chang Ge would escape, so he raised his eyes, but saw Chang Ge at a glance.
Chang Ge did not escape.Moreover, he was staring at himself with his back against the fishing window.Seeing Zhu Zheng wake up suddenly, Chang Ge immediately looked away, pretending not to pay attention.
Zhu Zheng's heart sank, and he felt cold sweat on his back.Chang Ge woke up before him, and when he woke up, he should have found Zhu Zheng holding him the whole time.Could it be that this rather sudden action... annoyed him even more.
He quietly observed Chang Ge to see if there was any abnormality in his expression.
Chang Ge's hair, which was a little messy yesterday, has been tied up again, and the cold wind from the fishing window blows his red hairband.He sat quietly, looking at the green hills on both banks and the advective river, his face was calm as usual.
Zhu Zheng looked out, and happened to see the fishing boat leisurely, and Jiangjunyan on the steep mountain top was slowly exiting the view from the fishing window.
It turned out that he had already arrived in Zigui.Not far ahead is Yiling.
Zhu Zheng turned his eyes back from the scenery outside the window, and found that Chang Ge seemed to be peeking again.Seeing him turning his head, Chang Ge immediately looked away again.
Chang Ge, who has always been simple and easy to understand, now peeps one after another, which makes Zhu Zheng puzzled.Are you still angry with yesterday?Or are you completely disappointed in him?
The two had their own concerns and remained silent.The atmosphere is rather awkward.
Chang Ge looked at the rolling peaks and cliffs on both sides of the river, and thought of Ru Ge's smiling face faintly in his heart.He said: "The last time I came here, it was just like Ru Ge, who went on a survey in Yiling."
Zhu Zhengying said: "In a world of great controversy, fate is like duckweed. If there is no distinction between Yizhou and Jingzhou, you and I will not be blocked, like a song..."
He stopped talking and did not continue.
Chang Ge was still facing the cold wind, trying to wake himself up again.
Chang Ge sighed, and said softly: "The feudal lords have always been entrenched. Not only Ru Ge, but also Zhi Yin's brothers who were folded in this river. Also, when going out for the Great Zhou, the battle of Nanjun burned all the boats..."
The stretching green hills on both sides of the strait are completely different in Chang Ge's eyes.Dajiang Canyon is not a simple moat.It is the battlefield of iron horses and golden swords, and it is the past full of flames.He can't forget the big and small battles in Jingzhou before, let alone the soldiers who stood shoulder to shoulder in these battles.Including Cantabile.
Chang Ge lowered his head, and said slowly: "When will the blood of the soldiers of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains be returned from the Southern Expedition and the Northern War?"
Zhu Zheng followed his words and said, "Chang Ge, I have a wish."
Chang Ge waved his hand, blocking his words: "I know."
Zhu Zheng said, "No, you don't know."
Chang Ge finally turned around and stared at Zhu Zheng, his eye sockets were still moist, like peach blossoms after rain.He asked: "What is your wish, sir? But please enlighten me."
Zhu Zheng looked straight into these lovely eyes, and said sincerely: "I want to rule the country and stop the war with my body."
Chang Ge asked: "How to unify?"
Zhu Zheng didn't answer directly, but instead asked, "Chang Ge, do you remember that the Taixue learned the principles of governance, power, and law?"
Chang Ge nodded: "I remember."
Zhu Zheng took a step forward, sat next to Chang Ge, and said softly: "The Great Zhou is dominated by Shuzhi, relying too much on checks and balances, and the courtiers are too heavy, the two sides struggle, and there is chaos. Moreover, once an important official is lost, Dazai Situ Jing Immediately turn your hands into clouds and your hands into rain, and wipe them out in one fell swoop."
Often sing without speaking.He knew who the missing end was.
Zhu Zheng went on to say: "Jingzhou was originally at the peak of the sun. On the left, there was the Great Sima Situxuan who ruled the country, and on the right there were the Prime Minister Mei and the wise and honest government. Why did it decline? The power is in decline. It is just like the first emperor and the founding emperor of Zhou Dynasty, King Wu of Zhou. .Often one or two people will become powerful, and they will definitely be able to establish a country. However, if the powerful person dies, the power will no longer be there, and it will collapse."
Chang Ge asked, "What does this have to do with unification?"
Zhu Zheng explained: "Unification requires power. Outside there are military generals who will stabilize the country, and inside there are virtuous and capable ministers. The combination of the two will determine the world."
Chang Ge was puzzled: "Mr. Ke said just now that it is difficult to govern a situation for a long time. Those who have become a power will die, and the power will no longer exist."
Zhu Zheng nodded in agreement: "After the country is established, it needs to be restructured, and there is no need to divide the feudal system. Go away from the rule of man, establish the rule of law, use the law to rule the country, lighten the imperial power and rule by man, so that it can last for a long time. The country is unified, the rule of law is strict, everyone lives and works in peace and contentment, and the society is stable. Peaceful, there will be no more battles for hegemony."
Chang Ge asked: "According to what you said, the person who reforms the system is also the key. Is there anyone who reforms the system?"
"Have."
Without hesitation, Zhu Zheng said bluntly: "I have a complete layout. There is only one thing missing."
Chang Ge understood what he said and bowed his head in silence.His ponytail lost its strength and fell to his neck.
Zhu Zheng persuaded: "Chang Ge. I don't want to coerce you anymore. I have coerced you too much before. If you don't want to, I will transfer this situation to others and walk the world with you."
Chang Ge was silent for a moment, then said in a low voice: "Help Xu to be a virtuous and talented person, and be the king of the world."
Zhu Zheng's heart trembled.When I was young, Chang Ge always helped Xu long and help Xu short, but after the goodbye, Chang Ge has not called this name for a long time.
Seeing that he didn't answer, Chang Ge turned to look out of the window and asked, "Sir, do you know what to do with righteousness and original heart?"
The river wind was bleak, Zhu Zheng looked at the strong and sad shoulder in front of him, and didn't know whether the question was a peach on a branch or a moon in the water.
He collected himself and answered truthfully: "I... when faced with righteousness and true heart, I thought about checks and balances. Unexpectedly, my family, country, world and loved ones are all lost."
Seeing Chang Ge's shoulder tremble, he seemed quite touched.
Zhu Zheng felt strange, Chang Ge had always avoided his thoughts, why was he suddenly moved now?
Zhu Zheng went on to say: "Chang Ge. Do you still remember that Jianping was facing the wine under the moon, and you ask me, why do I have to work hard again and walk on eggshells?"
Chang Ge didn't look back, just nodded: "I remember."
Zhu Zhengdao: "Great righteousness and original heart. Since you can't have both, why not follow your original heart and give it a go. Fake fame in the world, don't worry about it."
Chang Ge watched the rushing river and the green hills on both sides.There is a long wind blowing across the river, sending the returning swan geese straight to Qingyun.
"Right and wrong are discussed behind the scenes, and the mountains and rivers are determined with loyalty."
After Chang Ge finished reading, he turned around and happened to see Zhu Zheng sitting beside him with a sincere face.He looked at the person in front of him and asked in a low voice: "Your will definitely not."
Zhu Zheng stared into his eyes. Chang Ge had asked this question many, many times during the previous arguments between the two.Sometimes it is letters, sometimes it is helpless obedience.But every time, whenever Zhu Zheng made a decision, Chang Ge would stand by his side regardless of the reason.
The appearance of Chang Ge supporting Zhu Zheng at all costs also moved his heart.
He slowly shook Chang Ge's forearm, conveying his sincerity and firmness: "It's decided."
Chang Ge looked at him with a serious face, and said softly: "The emperor's will has been decided, I am willing to go through life and death, just to fight for the king for my king."
He knew what it meant to agree to Zhu Zheng at this time.He has always known.
He rebelled against Yizhou because of the prison robbery. Hearing what Zhu Zheng said, he will rebel against Jingzhou with him in the future.This unkind and unrighteous "hero in troubled times", he must be the one.
Even though Zhu Zheng in front of him was dressed in white, Chang Ge still recalled how he used to rule in black and luxurious clothes.The current world of great contention is not what he wants, nor is it what Song wants.
Now that Zhu Zheng had made up his mind, he stepped forward for him and took the lead.If Zhu Zheng accidentally falls short, he will accompany Zhu Zheng to bear the eternal infamy and never recover.
Even, after hearing the truth from Little Midnight yesterday, Chang Ge thought a little further—if anything happened, he would be willing to die for Zhu Zheng.
After three years, I never thought that Zhu Zheng would be able to call "My King" again after listening to Chang Ge.
Chang Ge saw something burning in Zhu Zheng's eyes. He didn't know whether it was the expectation of the vision for the future, or the emotion he had obtained through hard work.
"Chang Ge, you and I form an alliance."
******
The old boatman tossed and turned for a long time, but he couldn't find the wine cup.In the end, it was Chang Ge who had quick eyes and quick hands, saw a piece of bamboo pole, drew the Sigui sword and cut a piece, removed the end of the bamboo pole, and made a bamboo tube wine cup.
Zhu Zheng was quite satisfied and said, "Ru Ge also participated in our alliance."
He asked the boatman for some homemade wine, and the two of them went into the cabin together, and put the wine in the middle of the horizontal bench in front of the fishing window.
Chang Ge knelt on one knee on the left, and Zhu Zheng knelt on the right.
Outside the fishing window, there are large advective rivers and high gorges and steep peaks.
A group of swan geese ride the wind and pass by the river scene in the window.
Zhu Zheng stretched out his left hand, and said his oath of alliance word by word with the awe-inspiring wind:
"The heroic feelings are magnificent, and the long song is full of swords. Ning my family and country, and my rivers and mountains."
Chang Ge looked at the tough fire in his eyes, and held Zhu Zheng's left hand with his left hand.For some reason, Chang Ge hesitated for a moment, took a deep breath, and then said slowly:
"Death and life are broad..."
He only uttered the first few words, and saw Zhu Zheng startled suddenly, looking into his eyes, both shocked and joyful.
Chang Ge continued to swear: "...Speak with Zicheng. Hold your hand and grow old together with Zi."
This sentence is like the wind passing through the south, igniting the spark in Zhu Zheng's eyes into a prairie fire.He was surprised and delighted, and felt that his mood was about to rush to the sky.
Zhu Zheng asked anxiously, "What did you say just now?"
Chang Ge shifted his gaze: ""Beifeng·Beating Drums" is the first poem about soldiers and horses."
Zhu Zheng strengthened his hand, almost trying to pull Chang Ge into his side: "Sir, no."
Chang Ge gritted his teeth and pulled back the hand that was about to be pulled by Zhu Zheng, and said, "It's a blood alliance, don't interrupt it."
It was only then that Zhu Zheng suppressed his mood, and only let his thoughts and thoughts rise on the wind, sometimes going eastward with the current, and sometimes flying across the sky.There was uncontrollable joy in his heart, as well as uncontrollable pride.
He just wanted to run around and announce to the world: This is his regular song, and from then on, it will only be his regular song.Heroic and valiant, peerless.
Even when he saw Chang Ge solemnly drawing out the dagger, he felt extraordinarily sweet.
Chang Singer held the short knife and said with a smile, "I'm going to strike, sir, don't be afraid."
Zhu Zheng said firmly: "For you, ten million knives are worth it."
Chang Ge lowered his head and smiled, and slashed Zhu Zheng's left forearm with the dagger.This knife happened to land on Zhu Zheng's heart-biting poisonous scar.
A little blood dripped into the bamboo tube placed under the hands of the two of them.
The barrel was full of wine, and Zhu Zheng's blood became a red flower in the wine.
Chang Ge raised the saber again, he thought for a moment, and also scratched on the heart-biting Gu poison scar on his left arm.
Chang Ge's blood dripped into the wine, warmly greeted Zhu Zhengfang's drop of blood.Both of them stared at the bamboo tube, watching their blood merging together quickly.
Chang Ge put away the dagger and drew his hand.Zhu Zheng was still a little reluctant, and squeezed deliberately before pulling away.
Chang Ge gave him a warning look, and drew Zhu Zheng's attention back to the alliance: "There is only one cup, so I have to drink it one after another."
Zhu Zheng nodded regretfully: "If you have two glasses, you can still drink a lot of wine."
Chang Ge gave him a white look: "This is a blood alliance, not a forever friendship."
Zhu Zheng smiled and said, "It's the same."
Chang Ge ignored the teasing meaning in his words, raised his head and drank half a bottle of wine with two people's blood on it.He handed the bamboo tube to Zhu Zheng, and Zhu Zheng drank the other half of the wine.
After drinking, Chang Ge sat on the side of the boat in a relaxed manner, looking much lighter.
Zhu Zheng bowed his head and smiled slightly: "The alliance is over, I can talk about that poem with the general."
Chang Ge had already forgotten about it, and asked casually, "He Shi?"
Zhu Zheng pulled him violently, pulling Chang Ge into his arms.He held Chang Ge tightly and whispered in his ear, "Poems of soldiers and horses."
Chang Ge instantly understood what he meant.
Last night, he originally wanted to lure the Ice Soul Gu poison to attack, but he didn't expect that Jingzhou had already warmed up, and all kinds of blows turned out to be ineffective.Helpless, he had no choice but to pretend to be poisonous in the middle of the night. He just wanted to trick him into undoing his belt and escape by himself.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Zheng took the Suiyan Gu poison for himself without hesitation, which made him feel unbearable.This hesitation, but accidentally listened to Xiao Bansu Zhuzheng's heartfelt voice.
It turns out that this is not a one-way relationship.
He has liked Zhu Zheng for too long, even to the point where he has no bottom line.Zhu Zheng hurt him and abused him, and Chang Ge couldn't hate the suave Zhu Zheng in his heart.As a result, after hearing a little bit of Zhu Zheng's heartfelt thoughts, he immediately lost his head and expressed his aspirations with poems.
When quoting "Beifeng·Beating the Drum", he still hid some thoughts, and at most insisted that it was a poem about soldiers and horses.
However, Chang Ge only thought that she was affectionate and humble, but underestimated Zhu Zheng's affection.
Zhu Zheng pulled him to sit in his arms, hugged Chang Ge tightly, and then asked: "Does the general still say this is a poem about soldiers and horses?"
Chang Ge was suddenly drawn very close, his ears blushed in embarrassment, but he still insisted: "It's the poem of soldiers and horses."
Zhu Zheng looked at him and slowly shook his head: "The general misunderstood, sir teach you."
Chang Ge subconsciously knew that he was going to be rude again, put his elbow on Zhu Zheng's chest, lowered his voice and shouted: "Don't be rude, other people will see it."
Zhu Zheng tilted his head and smiled.
Chang Ge, who is not afraid of anything, is actually shy.
Zhu Zheng pressed Chang Ge's resisting elbow with his left hand, and pulled him closer. With his right hand raised, his wide sleeve happened to cover Chang Ge in his arms.Chang Ge's slight body temperature instantly disrupted his heartbeat, causing him to feel excited for no reason.
He looked at Chang Ge in his arms, and said in a low voice: "The general is ashamed, sir, cover it for you."
This kiss is different from the sentimental confession in southern Yunnan.Zhu Zheng kissed more affectionately, but less eagerly, as if the sky is forever and the water is flowing.What surprised him even more was that Chang Ge didn't struggle at all this time.
After carefully tasting Chang Ge's lips, he also kissed Chang Ge's handsome eyebrows, trembling eyelashes, and blushing cheeks.
He kissed Chang Ge deeply, and after Zhu Zheng left him, Chang Ge continued to chase after him, murmuring "Your Majesty" with a confused nasal sound.
Zhu Zheng stopped him and stared straight into Chang Ge's eyes: "What did you call me?"
There was mist from the river in Chang Ge's eyes. He held Zhu Zheng's face in his arms and called out, "Your Majesty."
This seems to be the first time Chang Ge has honestly responded to his feelings for Zhou Tianzi.Zhu Zheng felt that the strings in his heart were broken instantly, and he rushed forward and responded with a bit of arrogance.
He kissed passionately and impatiently, his heart was full of sweetness after years of hard work.
Chang Ge finally confessed that in his heart, Zhu Zheng was the only one.
After passing Yiling, the great river has gone steep and swift, leaving only the calm blue waves.
There is a flat boat on the river, going down the river, both sides are full of fantastic and wonderful scenery, but the two people in the cabin have no intention of enjoying the scenery.Covered by wide sleeves, it is the secret of the two lingering.
The author has something to say: **The most romantic thing is not that you and I share the same mind, but that we share the same goals and die together
☆, wish
Zhu Zheng finally got his wish and brought Chang Ge back to Guixin's old residence.
The prime minister is still in the Yunxi palace in Baling, and has not yet moved back.After Yiling was breached, people in Jiangling City were anxious, fearing that the Yizhou army would kill them down the river, and the people in the city would flee.
This formerly prosperous capital of Jingzhou is now like a dead city.
Zhu Zheng stepped on the fallen leaves on the deserted street, feeling that the bleak east wind was so gentle.
He led Chang Ge and knocked on the door of Guixin's former residence.
The naughty Youqing came to welcome the door. He quietly glanced at Chang Ge, and couldn't help saying happily: "Like, really like! It's exactly the same as the painting!"
Chang Ge was puzzled, and asked rather strangely: "What really looks like?"
Zhu Zheng pursed his lips and smiled, "Youqing, take the general to see."
Youqing was happy, and responded loudly: "Okay!"
He was extremely clever, turned to Chang Ge, and said, "General, please follow me."
Chang Ge nodded, followed You Qing around the screen wall on the left, and walked towards the inside of the mansion.He took two steps, but saw that Zhu Zheng was still standing there.Chang Ge was puzzled, turned around and asked, "Sir, aren't you going?"
Zhu Zheng looked at him softly and said, "You go first. I still have some things to do."
Then Chang Ge followed You Qing and walked towards the inner courtyard.
After a few steps, Chang Ge suddenly realized that the princes Zhu Zhengtong had complained about treated him badly and suffered great grievances in Jingzhou, all of which were deceitful.
If this is the case, why did he reward him with such a huge courtyard, and even arrange it so exquisitely.
Chang Ge followed You Qing three times and two times, walked quite a distance, and then found a small study in a hidden bamboo forest.
You Qing smiled at him, and introduced: "This study is connected to Mr.'s inner room, and people are never allowed to enter it. I won't go in. The general can look at it by himself."
He folded his hands and stood obediently on one side, while Chang Ge took a step, walked through the whirling bamboo forest, and pushed open the lattice window door of this simple study.
Open the door of the study, and there is a wide window facing you. The window is now set up, and you can see the beautiful scenery of the green lake outside the window.The river is sparkling, the sunlight diffuses from the water surface, and there are brilliant lights everywhere.
A corridor stretches over the lake, leading to a small building in the middle of the lake.
"It's so elegant..." Chang Ge looked at the rather sentimental scenery outside the window, and remembered the military camp where he and Bu Xing made do in Yizhou.
After enjoying the view of the lake, Chang Ge turned his eyes away from the view outside the window, and his eyes fell on a large piece of bamboo slips and books at the door.The books were piled up like a hill, blocking him from having nowhere to go.
"Why such a mess!" Chang Ge sighed.Zhu Zheng is not a messy person, on the contrary, he has high requirements for cleanliness.
He picked up a few books at random, trying to help put them on the bookshelf, but found that the bookshelf was full.
"Isn't it on the bookshelf?" Chang Ge felt suspicious, flipping through it——
These few books are all about southern Yunnan and Gu poison books.His heart was touched, and he searched carefully in the pile of books, and found that every book was related to Gu poison in southern Yunnan, and it seemed that they had been roughly turned over, because the hasty flipping made it a mess.
——Is it because of the Ice Soul Gu Poison and Flame Flame Gu Poison that I got...
Chang Ge silently lowered her head, feeling deeply guilty for doubting Zhu Zheng for a moment.He sighed, and gently placed the book in his hand on the pile of books.
He looked up, but was caught by the faint portrait behind the bookshelf [1].
Chang Ge only vaguely saw red.He stood up, bypassed the pile of books on the ground, and walked through several rows of bookshelves. When he saw the painting clearly, his heart was touched.
It is him in the picture.It was him when he was young.
Chang Ge on the painting is wearing a flamboyant red dress.In the painting, the teenager wears a high ponytail tied with a red ribbon, and wide sleeves tied with a white ribbon, showing his fair forearm and holding a bow.
This is what he looked like when he was a student.Chang Ge tasted this picture scroll, thinking in his heart: Why does Zhu Zheng remember?Still painted into a scroll?
He suddenly understood, and suddenly looked back.
want to see him.
Want to see him, want to ask him.
And... want to kiss him.
As soon as this thought popped up in Chang Ge's mind, his ears burned red.Chang Ge didn't dare to stay in this study anymore, opened the door and went out.
There was a servant boy outside the door, he was about sixteen or seventeen years old, but he looked handsome and quiet.He saluted gracefully and said, "I am Jing Yun. Please have a meal with General Chang."
Jing Yun took him to the side hall for dinner, there was a bunch of food on the round table, homely, but it was all his favorite food.
Chang Ge hadn't seen Zhu Zheng for a long time, so he asked, "Where's your husband?"
Jing Yun replied: "Sir, I have something to do, let the general eat first."
Chang Ge asked: "Has he eaten?"
Jing Yun replied: "Mr. is afraid that the general will be worried, so I have used it first."
Hearing this answer, Chang Ge was quite unhappy.He asked Chang Ge to go to see the paintings by himself, but he went to eat first.
However, in a short while, Chang Ge has put this boredom behind him.He hasn't had a good meal for several days, but this meal that suits his appetite is full of flavor and has a long aftertaste.
After dinner, Jing Yun seemed to understand his thoughts very well, and led Chang Ge to take a bath again.
The bathing place of Guixin's former residence, unexpectedly
