Three days later, He Lou Chengye's personal servant came to pick up Musu at the gate of the hall on time, and with the help of Huaping and Shutan, Musu had already packed up and put on the mask He Lou Chengye gave him.

When he walked out of the palace gate, the guards around him, including the young servant, were slightly stunned when they saw him, but this look dissipated in just a moment.The boy bowed slightly to Musu and said, "Mr. Su, please follow me." After speaking, he took Musu's burden from Shutan's hand, turned around and led the way.

"Sir, be careful all the way." Shu Tan smiled at Musu, his clean face was full of gentleness.Musu nodded and said, "Please."

Although the distance was not far, Musu was thinking about the purpose of He Lou Cheng Ye along the way, walking a little bit slowly, and when he reached the gate of the palace, He Lou Cheng Ye had already arrived.

From a distance, he saw He Lou Chengye's pitch-black steed, with striped mottled white patterns on its hooves, as if riding on clouds and fog, and also like a white will-o'-the-wisp.He Lou Chengye was dressed in a strong attire, his hair was tied into a high ponytail, and there were a few strands of braided hair in the ponytail, which was tied up with a dark blue ribbon, with the end of the ribbon draped behind his head, giving him a youthful look gas.

Before he opened his mouth to apologize, He Lou Chengye took the lead in laughing and said, "Mr. Su is not used to getting up early? This is the first time Gu is waiting for someone."

Mu Su cupped his hands and said, "Please forgive me, Your Highness."

He Lou turned his head and looked outside the door at night, adjusted the reins and said, "It's okay, the journey is exhausting, it's good to have a little rest." He turned his head slightly, looked at Musu's eyebrows and eyes, and asked in a good mood: "Can Mr. Su know how to ride a horse?"

Musu said: "Yes."

"Oh?" He Lou Chengye raised his eyebrows: "I didn't expect this. Then bring Mr. Su's horse."

Behind him, a guard pulled out a dark red horse from the crowd, with strong limbs and dark and gentle eyes. Mu Su fell in love with this horse immediately.He cautiously stretched out his hand to the horse's head, the horse looked at him with wide-open black eyes, and then leaned its head over, sticking to Musu's palm.The hands were warm and soft, Musu couldn't remember showing a smile, he stroked him for a moment, then turned to look at He Loucheng Ye: "Your Highness, will you let me ride it?"

He Loucheng looked at him at night and said, "It's the most docile and suitable for you. What's more, what Lang Yue needs most is a good horse."

Mu Su stroked the horse's neck, and said with a smile, "Then I would like to thank Your Highness."

He Lou Cheng Ye curled the corners of his mouth and said, "Mr. Fu Su got on his horse, it's getting late."

The servant just now hastily handed the burden to the people around him, and he came forward to help Musu, but Musu waved his hand, put his foot on the stirrup, grabbed the reins, flipped his front lapel and got on the horse.His movements were chic and smooth, and by the time everyone reacted, he was already sitting firmly on the horse.

A trace of surprise flashed across He Lou Chengye's eyes, but he kept silent, he just pulled the rein, let the black horse neigh, raised its front hooves high, and then galloped to the outside of the palace gate.As He Lou ran away through the night, another person on a chestnut horse followed quickly, and Mu Su didn't even have time to see who it was.

Mu Su was taken aback when he saw this, and turned to look at the other riders beside him. The brown horse on Mu Su's right sat on the servant of He Lou Cheng Ye who had picked him up just now, and the person on the left looked familiar. He was looking at himself with a smile.

Musu exclaimed, "White tea?"

Sitting beside him on the horse was Baiming, who was a little thinner, looked at Musu and said, "Master, let's go first, I will explain these things to you later."

When Mu Su suddenly saw an old man he knew well, he felt mixed feelings in his heart.On the one hand, he suspected that He Lou Chengye and Ben did not release Bai Ming as agreed, but he also wondered why he wanted Bai Ming to travel with him at this time.

The servant beside him urged in a low voice: "Mr. Su, hurry up, otherwise you will not be able to catch up with the king."

Musu came back to his senses suddenly, and then he responded, grasped the rein tightly, and galloped forward.

After running on the road for two days, the five of them only had a brief rest and recuperation, and spent most of the time on horseback.But since He Lou Chengye left Tianyue City and set foot on the endless grassland, he was not so anxious. Most of the time, Mu Su walked side by side with Baiming, and He Lou Chengye walked with his close servant Longjing. One walked in front, and the woman on the brown horse was behind.

Musu often secretly turned his head to look at the woman in the black dress. The high ponytail was the way Xia Ren tied it. Her brows were clear but gloomy. There was even a murderous look in the eyes she raised from time to time. At first glance, she was Xia Ren. .She has seldom spoken since she set off, most of which are monosyllabic words.What concerned Musu the most was that there was a soft sword around her waist, which was white all over and wrapped around her waist like a whip.

Bai Ming didn't know this woman either, he guessed it might be He Lou Chengye's bodyguard.Musu always felt that something was wrong, but after careful consideration, he had no clue.

Bai Ming was in a good mood along the way.He had been imprisoned since the outbreak of the rebellion. He thought he was going to die, but after a while, someone asked them who had martial arts background, and he was imprisoned alone.Not long after, when they heard that Musu and Lu Wei had been killed, Yue Changfeng and others had gone back to Daxia, and immediately wanted to seek death in despair, but He Lou Chengye summoned him alone.He Lou Chengye simply clarified the truth to him, and asked him to stay in Langyue to take care of Musu, and all requirements were the same as Musu's.He was pleasantly surprised that Musu was still alive, and immediately agreed.

"Master, why do you think Langyue Shanyu insists on letting me take care of you?" Bai Ming scratched her head, frowned and said, "Langyue should have no shortage of people who can take care of you, and their martial arts are better than mine, right? "

Mu Su looked at He Lou Chengye's straight back in front of him, and said calmly: "If I can guess him, we won't be trapped here at this time."

The air was a bit bitter, Musu looked at the tiny snowflakes falling in front of him, looked up at the towering gray sky, and said with a smile, "I said why it's so cold, it's snowing."

He Lou Cheng Ye also stopped in front of him, but Mu Su raised his head and didn't pay attention, and gradually moved side by side with him.

He looked at the man raising his head innocently like a child, couldn't help laughing and said, "Can't you see snow in the capital of Daxia?"

Mu Su turned to look at him, and said, "I can see it, but it's warmer than here, and the snowflakes are not as dense. What's more, the place is different, so the feeling is naturally different."

He Lou Chengye exhaled, and the white air escaped from his lips, saying: "It's about looking at the scenery, but it's usually about the state of mind."

Mu Su was taken aback for a moment, his eyes suddenly dimmed a little, and he didn't speak.

He Lou took this scene into his eyes at night, and was silent for two seconds. Looking at the snow falling between his jet-black hair, he turned to look at Longjing and said, "Take out the cloak."

Longjing took out a dark blue cloth from the package, with thick deerskin sewn inside, and a dark gray wolf fur cloak sewn around it, and handed it to He Lou Cheng Ye, who draped it on his body deftly .At this time, Longjing took out another pure white cloak, the material was very similar to the blue one, but the white hair looked more like a white fox.He Lou Cheng Ye took the cloak, rode his horse and leaned two steps to his side, and put it on Musu's shoulders, the white cloak instantly melted the numerous snowflakes.

Mu Su was taken aback for a moment, and when he turned his head to look, he suddenly met He Lou Cheng Ye's eyes.The amber eyes reflected Luoxue, like shining gems.His heart skipped a beat, and he forgot to move.

He Lou Cheng Ye turned his head and said: "The snow is heavy, there is a low mountain over there, let's go there and rest for a while."

Only then did Mu Su come to his senses, quickly put on his cloak, and followed He Lou Cheng Ye's pace, he glanced at the other person again, seeing the white snow on the man's jet-black hair as if sprinkled with white sugar, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up and said: "Thank you Your Highness."

He Loucheng turned his head to look at him at night, and suddenly said in a low voice: "Listen to my call later, go one, two, three, follow me closely, hold on to the reins."

Before Musu could react, he saw the other three people had arrived near the short hill, got off the horse and began to pack their luggage.

He was walked slowly by He Lou Chengye, and when he heard He Lou Chengye's deep voice rang in his ears, his heartbeat became stagnant.

"One, two, three! Go!"

Before Mu Su realized what had happened, he subconsciously grasped the reins, his legs pinched the horse's belly, the crimson horse neighed, and immediately threw off its four hooves and ran in another direction, closely following He Lou Take the night's vigorous black horse.

The wind whistled in his ears, he could only faintly hear the exclamation behind him, the snowflakes covered his eyes and stuck to his cheeks, it was cold, but he could accurately see the black lightning in the whiteness.Mu Su even felt that he had fallen into the chaos that Mu Rong often said, and was about to travel to another world.

He couldn't hear the call behind him for a long time, and he tried to open his eyes, looking at He Lou Chengye by his side, his black hair and dark blue cloak blending into one, not even a piece of snow touched him.His eyes were bright, his smile was as bright as the summer sun, he looked at himself on that dark horse, and said loudly: "Don't be caught up by them! Traveling to this northern plain, one or two people is enough!" Then he burst out laughing stand up.

His laughter seemed to be contagious, even though Musu was about to lose his eyes in the snowstorm, he unconsciously laughed along with him.He who has always been strict and disciplined didn't stop He Lou Chengye at this moment, he didn't even stop himself, he just let the red horse run forward, causing more rumors.

In an instant, he forgot the hatred of his family and country, his words of thanks, and his family.Even the fear and resistance to He Lou Chengye has been alleviated a lot.The blockage in my heart is washed away by the heavy snow, which is as vast and vast as this grassland.

Many years later, Musu couldn't help smiling when recalling this scene.He grew up in the capital city of Daxia. It was the first time he saw the grasslands and heavy snow in the northern country, and it was also the first time he saw He Lou Cheng Ye, who was riding a horse and laughing. All things are born together.

I don't know how long I ran, but the sky gradually darkened, but the snow fell more and more.Mu Su looked at He Lou Cheng Ye who was walking side by side, and said helplessly, "Your Highness, have you figured out how to spend the night? Our luggage is in Baiming and Longjing horses."

He Lou Chengye seemed to be in a very good mood, even at night, his eyes were shining brightly.

"It's almost here. There is a low mountain not far from here. I opened a cave here before, and there should be some supplies stored in it." He said loudly.

Mu Su was slightly taken aback: "Open?"

He Lou Chengye didn't answer, just smiled and said: "I never like others to follow, I used to sneak away alone, meet Xuan Yan here and then continue to go north. So no one else knows here." He Lou The black horse riding the night is called Xuanyan.

He glanced sideways at Musu and added, "You are the first."

Musu sighed slightly and said, "I don't feel honored at all."

He Lou Chengye raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Don't worry, I won't let you die before me."

With a thump in his heart, Mu Su looked sideways at He Lou Cheng Ye, but he heard the other party say flatly, "It's here."

He looked back, and he really saw the short mountain in front of him, with a bush at the foot of the mountain and an inconspicuous cave behind it.The two dismounted, Musu wondered where to tie the horses, but He Lou Chengye said: "No need, wrap up the reins and let them run by themselves. Although Shuangmei has never been to the north, she I will go with Xuan Yan." Only then did Mu Su know that his red horse was named Shuangmei, he took off his baggage, looked at He Lou Chengye and asked, "You always give the horse the name of Daxia's horse?" name?"

He Lou Cheng Ye didn't look back, and walked towards the cave, but a voice came from the front: "Why, you think it's strange that I'm familiar with Daxia's culture?"

Mu Su shook his head and said, "It's just that I didn't expect to get used to it to this extent. You are almost half a Xia."

He Lou Chengye said calmly: "This is not wrong in a certain sense." He put the burden and the long knife on the ground, and walked towards several large boxes covered with a layer of cloth in the cave. "But I'm a complete Langyue person."

Mu Su followed him and took two steps inside. Looking at the wall of the cave, the scratches did not seem to be natural, but more artificial. Could it be that this cave was really "opened" by He Lou Chengye? ?

He watched as He Lou Cheng Ye took off the cloth from the box, took out some moonstones from inside, and handed them to Musu.Musu took it, his hands were cold, but the light was very soft: "A complete Langyue person? What do you mean?"

He Lou took out a large bundle of dry firewood by night, and said calmly: "Because I grew up on the grassland. According to the habits of your Xia people, blood affiliation may determine the birthplace, but for me, the place where I grew up is the place of origin." Hometown has nothing to do with blood."

Mu Su watched as he put the firewood in the center of the pile of stones that had already been surrounded, and skillfully lit it with a flint and steel. The light of the fire gradually brightened and danced in his eyes.

He suddenly felt relieved.

There are many Xia people in Langyue, at least according to Musu's point of view, they are Xia people.But they live very well in Langyue, they have the delicate and introverted Xia people, and they also have the bravery and boldness of Langyue.He used to wonder why the Langyue people could accept these Xia people so much, but now that he thinks about it, he is not surprised.

Because to them, these people are not Xia people, they are completely Langyue people.

So when He Lou took the throne at night, even though he was attacked by hostile forces with blood ties, no one really opposed him, and the people even loved him more than the previous king.

He unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth and smiled: "I used to think you were too much like a Xia person, with a city inside, sinister and cunning; only now did I see that you really look like a Langyue person."

He Lou Cheng Ye took the moonstone in his hand, and with a flick of his hand, he had already inserted it into the groove on the stone wall, Mu Su was surprised to see it.

"It's not a compliment." He Lou Chengye smiled and said, "No one in Langyue dares to talk to me like that."

Musu was stunned for a moment, and then he felt that he might be a little too casual, and his heart sank.

"There is a city inside, is it sinister and cunning..." He Lou Chengye sat by the fire and said, "It's not bad."

Musu looked at his side face, suddenly speechless.

He Lou Chengye's profile flickered under the firelight, and his expression was a little gloomy.Mu Su couldn't help but have a question in his heart: Does He Lou Cheng Ye really want to be Shan Yu?Does he really want to be a sinister and cunning person?

"You must be thinking now, do I really want to be Lang Yue's Shan Yu?"

He Lou Chengye's sudden words stunned him, thinking that he had spoken his heart inadvertently, or was his idea so obvious?

He Lou Chengye said lightly: "I naturally want to be Lang Yue's Shan Yu, because I have the ability, and this is my country."

Musu slowly sat not far from him, staring at the burning flames and said indifferently: "Reviving Langyue, expanding Langyue, is this your dream?"

After a moment of silence, He Lou Chengye said calmly, "Maybe. At least for so many years, I think so."

"For the common people, not for the individual." Musu smiled slightly: "You have no right to say that I'm too hypocritical."

He Loucheng leaned against the wall behind him at night, looked sideways at Musu and said, "Because I think you said it was for the common people, but it doesn't seem to be the case in reality."

He didn't seem to have finished speaking, but he looked at Musu for a moment and decided not to continue.

Musu naturally knew what he meant, but because He Lou Chengye wisely didn't say it out, nor was he too angry, he just kept silent and didn't speak anymore.

The flames crackled, and the faces reflecting the two people became unreal, and the sound of snow falling outside was gradually covered up.

He Loucheng Ye suddenly said: "Sit here."
