Morbid pet

At the foot of the Tianshan Mountains.

The four carriages lined up at the foot of Tianshan Mountain. The people leading the team were all dressed in silver armor, and the horses were even covered with iron. They looked like bricks when they stepped on the ice field.

Chang Le looked at these people in surprise, and asked: "Is it a new tactic to hang the iron block immediately?"

Zhou Yu couldn't help laughing, and he began to introduce this place to Changle, "Look, isn't the weather here very cold? People need to wear shoes, right? The horses are the same, they wear such special iron nails It is a very good thing to be able to gallop freely on the ice field and increase the aggressiveness of the horses on the battlefield. This is also when I went to the border before, I happened to pass by a snow mountain, and then there were a few nomads there The nation, at that time, wrapped the horses with iron sheets, and after I came back, I asked the Ministry of Industry to study it, and finally came up with a set of such things, which I called the Icefield Iron Cavalry.”

"Ice field cavalry?"

Chang Le walked in front of the horses, and slowly stretched out his hands to the horses. "Good name."

"Looking back, I also have a set for my Sun Riding Flame. It looks weird and majestic."

Zhou Yu smiled, "Okay, then would our little princess want to have a light meal with me?"

Changle's mind moved slightly, and the smile on his face gradually deepened. "Okay, but there aren't any good restaurants around Tianshan, right?"

Zhou Yu nodded and said: "It is true that there is not, but I bought a house three kilometers away. The servants should have cleaned it in advance, and some cooks in the team have already passed. The taste of the dishes must still be the same, but, because The ingredients are different, so there must be some gaps, compared with the food in Chang'an City."

Chang Le nodded, "Let's go, by the way, why are you so rich, you can buy it wherever you go."

Zhou Yu frowned and said, "I am the king of a country after all. It seems harmless to buy a house in this remote mountainous area. Besides, these are all my private money. I didn't waste the money of the country. Don't worry."

Chang Le sneered, his eyes sparkling with fire. "You helped me redeem most of my dowry last time, thank you."

Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment, that matter has passed for a long time, he did not expect Chang Le to bring up the old matter again.

"It's been a long time, it's okay, those are the dowry you held in your hand since you were a child, and they were all sold out in the end, and I feel uncomfortable."

Chang Le suddenly raised his head, "Are you stupid? I didn't sell the dowry because I didn't have money. I wanted to invest. Besides, it's not a problem for me to run around with so much dowry, so I sold it. How could I know?" You bought it back for me." Changle laughed, "Fortunately, you didn't buy back my gold, silver and jade wares, which took up too much space. The real estate is fine."

Zhou Yu patted her head and signaled her to hurry up and get on the carriage.

"Hurry up and get in the carriage, it's cold outside, let's go back and talk slowly."

Chang Le obediently responded, and then got into the carriage.

The carriage is the new carriage.

The interior of the car is very spacious. With Changle's height, he can lie on his side. There is still room to sleep on a bed.Just now Chang Le noticed carefully that there were two coachmen leading the horses outside, and each of them had three horses in their hands, which would definitely not work for a carriage of this size in Chang'an City.

Because the carriages are too wide and the roads are too narrow, many places cannot pass.

But in small places like Bianguan and Tianshan, there are roads everywhere, and running is stable and brisk, and sitting on them is extremely comfortable.

Changle thinks that Zhou Yu should enjoy it.

Even if she was as rich as she was, she never thought of customizing a carriage specially for the border road. She still used the low-key carriage before, which was also obtained from Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu got into this carriage, Chang Le was not surprised at all.

He is like a piece of dog skin plaster, wherever Chang Le goes, he can stick it quickly, spare no effort and no means.

Chang Le took off the little lotus shoes embroidered with koi, and then lay down in the carriage, there was no place for him to sit, the intention of driving people was obvious.

Zhou Yu just laughed lightly, then naturally raised her legs slightly, and then sat down, letting her legs just rest on his.

Chang Le turned over and stared angrily. "Zhou Yu! There are three cars behind you, so why are you pushing against me?"

Zhou Yu smiled, "Isn't that in the back for the servant girls and the guards? It's so cold, we can't march."

Chang Le didn't want to turn against him again at this time, so he asked quietly: "It will take a long time to customize a car like this? I also want to make two cars, so it will be convenient for going out to play in the future."

"Well, I'll see you off."

Zhou Yu said casually, "These four cars were originally a New Year's gift for you, but they were not completed at that time, so they were delayed and not brought to you. Just this time when I left, I urged them, and the Ministry of Industry sent them overnight. These cars have been made, so I thought about bringing them along along the way. It happens that the road runs very smoothly with this kind of wide-carriage car, and you can sit comfortably, so why not do it? "

Chang Le was a little emotional, "So, you knew that I was going to leave very early, so you have been preparing the car for me, right?"

Zhou Yu nodded kindly, "That's right, otherwise why would I enjoy such a good time by myself? This car can't be driven in Chang'an City, it's too wide, and it's like snowflakes that I won't be able to impeach me tomorrow."

Changle was amused and laughed.

"Who dares to impeach you, Your Majesty."

There was a glint of gloom in Zhou Yu's eyes. He was young and had no background. He was able to grow from a eunuch to a generation of emperors by himself. He had his own skills and ambitions in it, but he usually hides his clumsiness. Not to mention the treacherous situation in the court, Changle thought that he was actually doing it easily, but being the emperor was actually not easy at all, and sometimes he even wanted to quit the job, those ministers, whoever loves to do it Dry.

However, taking this position is like a fish waiting to be slaughtered on the chopping board.

Whether it is the fish or the executioner depends on your own decision-making in each round.

As for him, among the countless choices, he chose to be the executioner.

Zhou Yu thought for a while, and rubbed his smooth chin with his rough palm, "Many people, under the guise of doing good for the country, impeach my subordinates every day, disgust me, irritate me, and force me to help them eliminate Among my party members in the imperial court. Those who have too many dirty things and are very tired from politics. I used to feel tired, but it doesn’t matter. I can’t be the one who dies when the sky falls, but now I can’t, I have to Control the affairs of the entire court and try to be as fair as possible, but the word "fairness" is only two syllables, but in reality it is more difficult than reaching the sky."

Zhou Yu sighed, "Chuchu, so, I don't want you to be exposed to these negative emotions and information. I rarely told you these dirty things when I was with you before, but you are smart, and you have a general understanding in your heart. , but in fact, I am a little bit blind in this situation that is stirring up the situation."

Chang Le's lips moved slightly, and she said nonchalantly, "Can't you learn from Brother Huang's advanced management method of doing nothing?"

Zhou Yu looked sideways at his girl and smiled, "Li Tianren tried his best to be in charge of the government, but he only tried hard and then failed."

Chang Le sighed, calculated the time, tomorrow is his brother's death day.

Her mood suddenly became very depressed. She turned her head to look at the dark golden chrysanthemums embroidered on the car curtain. Every pattern on it was exquisite. The world?"

Zhou Yu chuckled, and then said coolly: "First of all, we can be sure that you will marry the king of the Western Regions, and then you will become the handle of the Western Regions. Half of the border borders with the Western Regions, from the northern extension line to the border area, among them It also includes the area in southern Fujian, all of which will be divided up by the vassal states. Then there will be wars everywhere, and Ming is a deer waiting to be slaughtered, and all heroes can chase it."

Changle thought about it, but Zhou Yu was right. This was indeed the situation she had seen in the past two years.

Daming's stubborn disease is too deep, the aristocratic family is just maggots entrenched on the big tree of Daming, rotten to the bone.

Chang Le sighed, "I actually understand all these things, but I still want to ask, do you regret it?"

Zhou Yu raised his eyebrows and said, "What do you regret? You forced your brother to death?"

Chang Le bit her lip and nodded, "Although Li Tianren is a bit of a jerk, it is undeniable that he treated me very well a few years ago, and I was really favored by him as the most honorable woman in Daming Kingdom. Although he also Using me, using my marriage to win over those dignitaries or lords, sometimes I feel it, quite helpless, everyone seems to be not black and white, everyone has their own good and bad, it is difficult to be pure To evaluate a person, hey. I don’t know how to say it.”

Zhou Yuxie smiled, "It seems that our little princess has been deeply moved recently. Not bad, she grew up quietly by herself. Have some wine in the evening and chat slowly. Come and get off the car, we are home."

Chang Le wondered: "Home?"

Zhou Yu nodded, "I now call any place with you home."

Chang Le's face was flushed with embarrassment, and his hands were a little out of place, "Aren't you the one who doesn't know how to talk? Give you sunshine, and you will bloom and bear fruit! It's too much, who has a home with you!"

Zhou Yu still firmly believed in his theory.

that.

Home is where you are.

The yard is a three-entry house, the entrance is dilapidated, and I don't expect any good places inside.

But this place is already sparsely populated, so it's good to have a decent place to live.

Chang Le took a deep breath and walked in. Pushing open the solid wood door, there was a small pond with several colorful carps and fake lotus flowers. I don’t know where Zhou Yu got them. It is very festive that colorful lanterns are hung.

Although the furnishings in the house are a bit dilapidated, it made Chang Le feel very happy.

As soon as the colored lamps are lit, they complement each other with the bright moon in the sky.

The smell of food came from the kitchen.

It really feels like home.

This is the time Changle has felt the most at ease in the past few months of wandering outside.

It was actually at the foot of Tianshan Mountain, in a dilapidated house.

The reason some people exist in your life is to let you see the broken beauty in life.

Chang Le took a deep breath, and prepared to swallow the tears that had condensed in his eyes.

But the eye sockets were already filled with tears, and when he closed his eyes, the tears seemed to be broken, one by one, pouring out of the eye sockets.

Chang Le opened her phoenix eyes that were bright because of crying. The tails of her eyes were red, and there was a slight upturn. Her face was fair and bright. He couldn't help but turn his eyes around her.

Of course Zhou Yu did too.

At this time, he even forgot why Changle was crying, but just enjoyed this moment of silence side by side with her.

Zhou Yu came back to his senses, he squeezed Changle's white and tender little hands, "Did I make our princess angry?"

Chang Le's voice was a little hoarse, sobbing and choking, like a child.

"No. I just suddenly felt that here, I feel like home. I haven't felt this kind of feeling for a long, long time. I feel empty everywhere I go. It turned out that I discovered that deep down in my heart is still Longing for a home."

"Me too."

"what?"

"I said me too! Longing for a home!"

Chang Le sniffled, and Zhou Yu handed over the handkerchief thoughtfully, "Chu Chu, I said I would give you a good home, can you trust me? I will not betray you."

Chang Le shook his head, not wanting to continue this topic.

The meals were quickly prepared and placed neatly on the decayed wooden table.

Chang Le walked over, pulled the stool away, "It's time to eat." Her voice was sweet, and she didn't look emotional at all, her beautiful eyes were empty.

A look of pain flashed in Zhou Yu's eyes, he walked over and pulled the stool to Chang Le's side.

Originally, this table was a rectangular diagonal table, but it was suddenly made into a single table by Zhou Yu.

Chang Le didn't say anything, she just lowered her head and picked more and more vegetables in her bowl, which were all picked up by Zhou Yu.

When Zhou Yu was with her, he always unconsciously began to take care of her and think about her. Whenever the night was quiet, Zhou Yu himself felt a little surprised. In terms of birth, he was actually born very well. Veteran.

My mother's family is also the family of the richest man in Jiangnan.

But that year, he fell in love with a child in the cold palace, because he still doesn't know why.

The time when he found out what he wanted was just before something happened at home, and before he had time to tell his girl that he actually loved her a long time ago.

His life and hers have completely become two parallel lines that can no longer intersect.

Zhou Yu was picking at the food for a while, Chang Le suddenly turned his head and asked him in a low voice: "Do you think it's not delicious?"

Only then did Zhou Yu come back to his senses and realized that he had lost his composure.

He apologized, "Sorry, I was just thinking about something else."

Chang Le nodded slowly twice, and asked casually: "What is it?"

The main reason is that the two suddenly reconciled, and then they didn't speak to each other, and all the little movements and expressions fell into the other's eyes, which was actually very scary.

Zhou Yu looked at Chang Le, and the roots of his ears suddenly turned red for some reason. Fortunately, the night was treacherous and he couldn't see clearly.

He said: "You seem to have a magical power. From the beginning to the present, after I met you, I have never seen any other women.

And I will always unconsciously take care of you, love you, even I feel very strange.

I actually fell in love with you very early. It was some time before my family had an accident. Before I had time to tell you, something happened at home. After that, I almost lived on the memories of you. I always felt that I was dirty. I don't deserve to be with you, so when I was in the palace,
When I saw you from a distance, I would take a detour. But then I couldn't bear it anymore. I didn't want to watch Li Tianren sell you to marry someone else for various reasons, so I told you for the first time. He made a request. "

There was a magic in his words.

When Changle was unconscious, he also fell into it.
