[Gulan] Broken Wild Goose Song

15

A gleam of light broke through the darkness.

Musu was stunned when he woke up, the difference was not where he was, but this time, he didn't dream of anyone.He is not dreaming.He neither dreamed of Xie Yan, nor his parents, nor even He Lou Chengye.Presumably this meeting was too painful, and he was afraid from the bottom of his heart.

Musu sat up and lightly brushed the thick long blanket covering his body. It was soft and delicate to the touch, like mink fur or snow leopard, but how many mink and snow leopards would be needed for such a big thick blanket?

He blinked, and looked up at the interior, which was still decorated in the Xia Dynasty, with precious mahogany furniture and yak hair carpet.Sandalwood exudes an intoxicating atmosphere amidst the heavy curtains, and the rescued belongings are neatly placed on the bluestone coffee table in front of him.Musu felt a little weak, but he still put on the cloak on the back of the chair, got out of bed, went to the table and flipped through it casually, thinking carefully about what he lost.These things are lost now, and if they don't go back to Daxia, they won't be able to make up for them.At the end of the inventory, Musu found helplessly that he himself couldn't remember what he had lost.This is only a few months, if it takes longer, what will I forget to write?He laughed at himself, and only then remembered that the bag that Qi Wenze gave him at the beginning seemed to be lost, which made him even more lonely.

He suddenly felt that something was wrong with him, he shouldn't be so calm.Now Musu in Daxia is already a dead person, and Musu here is just a plaything of He Lou Chengye, his prisoner, a slave who can be sent to the execution ground to feed the wolves whenever he wants.Perhaps it was because of this self-definition that he was not used to the luxurious arrangements around him, so he calmed down a lot.

When the maid heard that he was getting up, someone rushed forward to help him get dressed, but when he shook his head and refused, the woman stood by her side with her hands down and handed him something.After finishing cleaning up slowly, another maid brought a golden plate, and the exquisite food on the plate was not what a prisoner should enjoy at all.The maid knelt down on one knee, bowed and said, "Master Musu, let's have breakfast."

Musu watched the exquisite breakfast, sat upright for a long time, finally raised his hand, and took the first bite of food.

In the late autumn of the sixth year of Jiahe, Musu, the second son of the Minister of the Household Department of Daxia, the minister of the Ministry of Rites, was ordered to go to Langyue as an envoy and encountered civil strife in Langyue.Great Xia envoy Lv Wei colluded with the rebels and killed Mu Shilang. The evidence was conclusive and he was divided into five horses and died.Yue Changfeng, the envoy of Daxia, counted the remaining items and led the rest of the people back to Daxia.

On the day Yue Changfeng returned to Daxia, the gate of Mu Mansion was closed tightly, and there was no sound in the mansion.Emperor Zhao heard that the court was furious and ordered many Langyue captives to be executed, Mr. Lu and other relevant officials were dismissed, and he personally erected a tomb for Mu Su, pursued the posthumous title of Duke Wen Ying, and buried him generously in the Mu family's ancestral grave.On the day of the burial, fireworks, music, silk and bamboo were banned in the capital, and Mu Shangshu and his eldest son Mu Fan participated, but the rest of the Mu family did not show up.

It's just that that night, some people were drinking and laughing on the roof of Mu's house, some were angry in pain in the palace, some were crying and some were laughing.The winter wind will gradually solidify the sadness, red walls and green tiles, withered vines and old trees.For the people of Limin, this may be just a fleeting bird in their lives. They are busy for the winter, looking forward to the New Year, looking forward to the first peach blossom in the coming year.

Lang Yue also gradually entered the winter, even if she was indoors with a charcoal fire, she could still feel the chill increasing.The northern nomads gradually returned to the southern city, and the entire Tianyue City became more lively than ever.

In the main hall of King Langyue's capital, He Lou Chengye squinted at the envoys from the Xia people in front of him.

This is the fourth time since that incident. This time, he was a little wary that this envoy was a member of the dark army organization in Daxia.

"Gu has said it many times, and the previous envoys have read it carefully, so what is your intention this time?"

The man clasped his fists and said in a deep voice: "His Royal Highness, I came here by the emperor's order, and I dare not ask why."

He Lou Chengye sneered, frowned and said: "I heard that Emperor Zhao is ill today, maybe he is sick and confused, and can't remember what he ordered you to do?"

The envoy didn't speak.

He Lou Cheng Ye waved his hand and said: "Forget it, I never thought that Emperor Xia would be such a person who loves his subjects so much that he would go crazy because of the death of several envoys." He called the guards beside him and said, "Take him there. .”

The envoy was sweating coldly on the corner of his forehead, thanked him with fists and retreated with the guards.

The people around him lowered their heads and whispered to He Loucheng Ye: "My lord, what is the meaning of Emperor Xia? Could it be that there is some news from Musu?"

He Lou Chengye rubbed his opal finger on the side of his finger, and said calmly: "It's okay. This Xia Dynasty is interesting. I thought Mu Su was wishful thinking, but I didn't expect that this Emperor Xia is also a master who doesn't understand."

The man continued to ask: "Then... what are we going to do while we're on the move? It's a godsend opportunity to spy on Emperor Xia now that he's in a trance and the interior is relatively loose."

He Lou Chengye rubbed his fingers to a stop, and then stretched them out again after a while.

"No need. Let's not talk about whether this is Emperor Xia's conspiracy, Lang Yue is far from stable now. If Emperor Xia is really crazy, he will naturally do crazy things; if not, then there is no need to fall into the trap."

The man bowed his head: "I didn't think carefully."

He Lou Chengye hummed, and said: "You guys can do what you just ordered. Be quick and don't procrastinate."

"Yes. Wang wants to check and accept it himself?"

"No." He Lou Chengye flicked his sleeves and stood up, with a smile on his lips, "I have something to do."

Few people in Langyue Imperial City now know that there is a palace in an inconspicuous place next to Chengye's bedroom in Helou. There are few people coming and going and the guards are strict.

The outside of the palace was surrounded by guards, but the inside was not as miserable as people thought, but rather warm.The place is not big, everything is ready, it looks crowded but warm.There are Xia people's decorations everywhere, a Langyue maid gently put the celadon teacup on the tea table, and a white smoke wafted out.

Sitting in front of the desk was a thin man in white.Her black hair was simply tied up, and most of it was scattered behind her back. Her eyebrows were not beautiful, but they were delicate and attractive. A pair of white and bloodless hands gently held the celadon teacup, and smiled at the maid: "Thank you, Huaping."

The maid who was called the painting screen smiled and said: "Sir, don't worry, Shutan has gone to get you a new book, and I think he will be back soon. Just now I also called some paint to get things for Mr. Zhang, please rest first Some, some hot tea."

Musu nodded and said, "It's true, but I'm a little tired."

"Sir, do you want to take a rest?" Huaping said, "But sir hasn't told Huaping the story of today!"

Musu sighed and said, "I'll take an hour's rest, can you wake me up on time? I'll talk about it when they all come back."

Huaping's slightly darkened face immediately smiled and said: "That would be the best! I'll make the bed for you sir!" After saying that, he trotted into the house to clean it up.Musu smiled helplessly, got up and rubbed his numb legs, straightened his robe and walked in.

It has been nearly a month since Lang Yue was detained, and he never stepped out of this hall once, and He Lou Chengye never came to see him, as if he had completely forgotten the existence of this person.He also didn't have any news about Da Xia, sometimes a few maids would quietly bring back some rumors from the palace, most of them were just rumors.

Musu's only pastime is reading. Fortunately, Langyue's library is not big, and there are still a lot of books. Through reading, he also learned some Langyue language.Reading, painting and writing every day, he often laughs at himself, isn't this the same as a nerd?He dreamed less and less of Xie Yan, and dreamed more and more of other people in Da Xia. Every night when he woke up from the dream, he would look at Lang Yue's moon until the chill and sleepiness struck again.

Huaping covered Musu tightly with the blanket, stepped out lightly, and saw another girl who was dressed similarly but more plainly at the door.The girl put down the thick book in her hand, rubbed her hands that were red from the cold, took off her cloak, and asked in a low voice, "Sir, are you asleep?"

Huaping took her cloak and said with a smile: "That's right, you are tired of waiting. You don't want to be considerate of Mr., run faster."

A trace of apology appeared on Shu Tanhong's flushed face: "It's not that it's cold, I'm wearing an extra one, it's too inconvenient to run."

Huaping smiled and said: "When Mister gets up, I will ask Mister to punish you. Not only you, but also for painting. He has been out for a long time, and he hasn't brought anything yet."

Shutan picked up the book, carefully stacked it on the case where Musu often reads and said with a smile: "He's a boy, he likes to play."

Huaping snorted and said: "He must have gone to play with Muzi and the others again, maybe he forgot all the things that he wanted to do."

Shutan hit her on the head with a rag and said, "Nonsense! Be quieter, don't wake up Mr.

Huaping hurriedly fell silent, hunched his neck, glanced at Musu's room, and stuck out his tongue.

The silence didn't last long, and suddenly there was some noise outside. Shutan looked, but saw the guard at the door pushing the door and looking at them, and said in a low voice, "The king is here!"

Huaping and Shutan's complexion changed drastically, they looked at each other, and at the same time they knelt down, listening to the noisy footsteps outside the door, but it seemed that there was only one person who finally stepped in.

Huaping was courageous, raised his head slightly, and saw a pair of exquisite leather boots walking towards him slowly, and stopped in front of him.Immediately, a deep and magnetic voice came from the top of the head: "Where is your husband?"

Shutan didn't dare to speak, Huaping bit his lip, and replied tremblingly: "Mr. Wang, he is tired and resting."

He Lou walked around the room at night, bowed his head and flipped through the books that Shutan had just put down, and asked: "I heard that Gu is here, are you tired and rest?"

Huaping quickly lowered his head and said, "No... Wang, Mister has been resting for a long time. I finished reading the book in the morning, and I don't have enough calligraphy. I'm bored, so I said I'm going to take a rest. Mister, he didn't know that Wang was coming!"

He Lou Cheng Ye put down the book in his hand, looked at Mu Su's room, and said calmly: "I can't take care of you well, just kneel here."

Where did Huaping and Shutan dare to resist, they timidly said yes, and dared not move again.

He Lou Chengye slowly opened the door, raised the curtain, and walked into Musu's room.

Sandalwood is burning in the room, inhale lightly, and it will be dense in the chest and lungs.

Musu fell asleep on the bed, his thin chin was covered by a thick blanket, but he didn't look so thin anymore.The pale skin became increasingly difficult to distinguish around the blue pillow and the white blanket.The eyelashes rested on the skin, trembling, casting a shadow, and the brows were slightly furrowed, as if he was not sleeping peacefully.

He Lou Chengye unconsciously lightened his steps and walked over, and found that this person was really tired and showed no signs of waking up.

He reached out and tucked back the hand exposed from the blanket for him.The cold hands and the slightly warm quilt made him frown. He slowly sat beside Musu's bed, looked at him for a long time, then stretched out his hand, gently tapped between his brows, and pressed it slowly.A gentle internal force spread from between the brows to Musu's whole body, his brows gradually flattened, his expression became gentle, and the temperature on his body gradually rose.

He Lou Cheng Ye looked at Mu Su's face, feeling a little funny.He hasn't realized that he likes to stare at a person so much, as if this person is changing every second, or because he never changes.

He Lou Cheng Ye didn't know how long he stared at it, but felt that the smell of sandalwood seemed to have faded. He got up and wanted to take a look, but suddenly he heard Mu Su's groan, and he suddenly lowered his head to look in a panic. .

Musu rolled over on the bed, his eyelashes fluttered, and he opened his eyes.

In the pitch-black eyes is the self that He Lou would not recognize even at night.

After waking up just now, Mu Su's eyes were still a little absent-minded, but only for a moment, those eyes shrank suddenly, and the reflected shadow of He Lou Cheng Ye was instantly shattered.

Mu Su suddenly sat up from the bed, because of too much force and even experienced a brief dizziness, He Lou stood at the same place at night, watching the man move away, the temperature in his brows and eyes gradually disappeared.

Mu Su woke up from the dizziness, looked at the expressionless He Lou Chengye standing in front of him, the emotion in his heart suddenly burst out as if he had suppressed it for a long time, and it made his hands tremble uncontrollably.

He didn't salute He Lou at night, but just stared at him and asked, "What are you doing here?" His voice was trembling.

Mu Su has never seen He Lou Cheng Ye since he passed out in the main hall.Not seen in January, he hasn't changed at all.

He began to wonder how long this man had stood in front of him, and what he was here for.

He Lou Chengye said indifferently: "Come and see you."

Musu was taken aback, then pursed his lips and said, "I don't have anything to look at."

The corner of He Lou Chengye's mouth curled up and said, "I think everything looks good."

Musu clenched his fists suddenly, and his voice was octave higher: "If His Highness has nothing to do, then leave."

"You still don't seem to understand." He Lou Chengye said lightly, "You are in Langyue, this is a lonely place, since when did you have the power to issue orders to evict guests?"

Musu stared at him and said angrily, "Then let me go back."

He Lou Chengye looked into his eyes and said: "I thought you were a smart person, I never thought you would say such stupid things at this point. It doesn't seem like you would say something."

Musu knew that the words just now were meaningless, but he was afraid of being extremely angry with the person in front of him, and what was even more painful was that he was afraid of more than hatred.

He Lou went to the incense burner in the house at night, looked at the burnt sandalwood, and put a new piece in.

"Is it cold to sleep at night?"

There is no beginning or end, He Lou Cheng Ye suddenly asked

Musu watched his movements, but didn't speak.He closed his eyes, trying to restrain his excitement.Only then did he realize that it wasn't because he was too calm after waking up, but because He Lou Chengye didn't appear in front of him.He Lou Chengye must have known this reason, and only came here after waiting for a month.

It's just that he himself didn't expect that even after a month, Lu Wei's expression before he was executed that day still appeared in his dreams day and night, and he was extremely afraid of the man in front of him.

He Loucheng Ye was not annoyed by Musu's silence, he said flatly: "I asked someone to bring you some things, the winter here is still very cold, if your bones are left alone, you will freeze to death here. "

When he came back, he didn't sit next to Musu's bed, but sat at the table not far away, and said calmly.

Musu opened his eyes, and his voice sounded a lot calmer: "I'm not weak, is that why your Highness is here?"

He Lou Chengye picked up his teacup and said, "I told you, I'm here to see you."

"I'm fine." Musu said.

"I'm so bored that I fell asleep, is that good?" He Lou Chengye said, "The servants don't take good care of you, and you don't ask for it."

Musu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized that he quickly lifted the quilt and got out of bed. He ran barefoot into the main hall with his boots on, and he saw Shutan and Huaping still kneeling on the ground, almost fainting.

He quickly supported the two people and said: "Get up! Are you stupid, kneeling here for so long!"

Shutan and Huaping were already a little dizzy, their legs and hands were shaking, but they still shook their heads.

Mu Su resentfully looked up at He Lou Cheng Ye who was leaning on the wall with folded arms and looked at him, and said angrily, "You let them get up! It's not their fault!"

He Loucheng took a deep breath, looked into Musu's dark eyes, and said calmly, "Get up. There won't be a next time."

Shu Tan and Hua Ping breathed a sigh of relief, and fell to the ground. Mu Su hurriedly asked the guards around them to help them down to rest.

Huaping grabbed Musu's sleeve in a daze, and said weakly: "Sir, some paint...haven't come back yet..."
