Ever since Zhao Xu made it clear that the dog would no longer be tied to the west wall and there, Jiang Yunya sneaked into Prince Jin's mansion more often at night.

At this time, the bright moon was shining brightly, and the flowers and branches were lingering around. The two were soaking in the hot spring.

This hot spring in the backyard of Prince Jin's Mansion was originally formed naturally. When the Prince's Mansion was built, it was specially circled out by the Holy One and given to Zhao Xu.It was a bit cold at night, but in the hot spring water it was so warm that one's limbs and bones were stretched out comfortably.

Zhao Xu rested his head on the carved smooth stone pillow by the pool, and looked at Jiang Yunya, who was still arranging the clothes of the two of them slowly, with a smile on his face.

Jiang Yunya was careful and upright, just like now, he had to fold his clothes neatly before going into the water.

"Are you ready?"

"That's it."

Jiang Yunya put the clothes of the two of them on the flat stone table on the bank, and like Zhao Xu, wrapped them in silk cloth and went into the water.

"Impatient?" Jiang Yunya smiled.

Zhao Xu glanced at him sideways and didn't answer.One hand was already on his back with criss-cross scars, he frowned slightly and said: "After I left, I got so many wounds, and every time I said I was fine, where did I get better?"

"There's no one who doesn't get hurt in war." Jiang Yunya slowly stroked Zhao Xu's long, smooth, dark hair, brushing his hair with the stream of water under the moonlight.

But while he was combing, there was a pause, Zhao Xu felt a little sentimental in his heart, he stopped, not understanding the situation, and asked: "What's wrong?"

"Xiao Xu, do you have any gray hair?"

Zhao Xu held all his hair in front of his shoulders, only seeing the black hair like a waterfall, but never seeing the white hair.

"Brother?" Zhao Xu looked at him suspiciously.

Jiang Yunya, however, turned his eyes to another place, and his eyes darkened a bit. When he turned his head again, he still smiled as warmly as usual, and said, "I saw it wrong, I saw it wrong...Senior brother is getting old."

"It's not thirty yet, so what's old?" Zhao Xu thought about it, but he still said so, leaning his head on his shoulder: "However, I hope to get old soon, at least not Every day, my father talks about marrying a princess."

"It's nothing wrong." The man stroked his hair and said softly.

nothing wrong?

Zhao Xu wanted to ask him what was wrong on the spot, but he endured it.

He put his gaze into the distance and asked: "Brother, do you see the white bird standing on the peach blossom branch over there?"

"Ah."

"Ah! I saw it wrong, it's a red bird." Zhao Xu's throat tightened, suppressing the heavy guess in his heart, he smiled lightly, and asked, "Is it pretty?"

"..." Jiang Yunya narrowed his eyes, and softly echoed: "It looks good."

"Brother." Zhao Xu's voice was trembling uncontrollably.He said, "There are no birds on the branches. What's wrong with your eyes?"

"..."

The atmosphere was suddenly as silent as dead wood, so quietly that one's heart was choked and speechless.

The man looked at Zhao Xu's flushed eyes and slightly trembling appearance, he was silent for a moment, and said: "There is no major problem, but sometimes I can't see clearly."

I can't see clearly... Although Zhao Xu was in the warm hot spring water, it was like falling into an ice cave.

For a person who practiced martial arts, and even a general who would spend his life fighting on the battlefield, being unable to see clearly was fatal enough.If he hadn't tried it out like this today, how long would he have kept it from himself?

"Jiang Yunya." It was the first time Zhao Xu called his name word by word like this: "You are so self-righteous and self-important!"

"..."

"You think I'm worried about you, don't you? You don't even care about yourself. What the hell am I going to do? You don't want your ideals, your accomplishments, do you? To lie to me, even such things Can you drag it?"

Jiang Yunya looked at the trembling man in front of him. Under the moonlight, he could clearly see every detail of the hair between his brows.

He smiled and said, "When you were young, you were as angry as you are now, as if you were going to cry in the next second."

"..."

"During the years I was in Liangzhou, I was cured once. The doctor said it was the residual poison left by the poisoned arrow, and then I scraped the bone once." Jiang Yunya said slowly, seeing Zhao Xu's expression, The long hair on the young man's forehead fell down, making him a little unclear, so he continued: "After being transferred back to Chang'an, there was no recurrence. Until the day of the winter solstice, when I woke up, I found that I couldn't see the icicles on the window clearly. By this year I took some medicine intermittently, and I'm getting better...You can see it just after spring."

He rarely spoke so many words in a row, and it was rare for Zhao Xu not to interrupt, and then turned the topic to the next place with a smile.

The moonlight is bright, and the breeze brings the peach petals in the distance to fall in the hot spring pool from time to time.

The two were so close, but for the first time they felt cold.

"It's not just this one, right? Have you all discussed it?" Zhao Xu's voice was hoarse, as if he had just cried silently. "And Xu Lin, and Qin Zhennan, you want me to marry Mu Shangshu's daughter, right?"

"..."

General Qin and Master Xu had indeed talked to him about this matter.

"I know, you are doing it for my own good. I am the only one who is stubborn and doesn't know what is good or bad." Zhao Xu said softly, and looked up at him: "Why can't I see my own good?"

"Xiao Xu." Jiang Yunya opened his lips, his throat was choked and he couldn't speak.

"How many things are you hiding from me?"

He didn't want to do this, but for some reason, even he felt too cold when he spoke.

Why, why didn't you tell yourself?

Hiding his eye injury, he discussed with Xu Qin and let him marry Mu Lianyi...

In the eyes of others, these seem to be his best choices, but who asked him what he meant?

I don't know when a bird flew over the branch, chirping. Zhao Xu saw it this time, it was a white lark.

"No more." Jiang Yunya said softly, looking at the young man who walked straight to the shore.

Zhao Xu walked to the shore, wiped off the water droplets on his body, put on his clothes, he paused when he was about to leave, and didn't look back.

Maybe they really need to think about the next way.

Zhao Xu never thought about not having Jiang Yunya's appearance in his future life, nor would he think about it.

And that person, how can he push him to others in the name of his good?
