Mountains and rivers fall into red

Chapter 66
Xiao Hao recovered from his anger, and said sincerely: "No matter what, Xiuxiu, you have to believe me, my feelings for you are true and will never change."

Xiuxiu smiled wryly, paused for a moment, sighed, and looked at an unknown place.

"I always think, brother Tianji's death is not worth it. The dispute between you and the prince has nothing to do with me. I have no intention of getting involved. I just want to go back to my hometown and spend more time with brother Tianji."

Xiao Hao's face gradually turned pale.

After a long silence, he said in a hoarse voice: "That's fine, I hope you don't get involved. Go back to your hometown and settle down. I'll go and see you."

"No need, I won't see anyone." Xiuxiu said decisively.

Xiao Hao knew that she was angry, so he slowly held her hand and touched it with extremely soft movements.Such a straightforward woman, if she dies in the future, it will be his blessing.

"Take care of yourself."

With a light sentence, he turned around and left after speaking.

Standing outside the house, Xiuxiu listened to the sound of the carriage going away, thinking about Xiao Hao's words, she felt very uncomfortable.Thinking back to when he was a noble, magnanimous and talented young man, she was even a little proud to associate with him.But now it's different.Under the relentless intrigue, no matter how innocent a person is, there will be evil thoughts.

But it was the fact that he was not a bad person that made people feel even more chilled.

She was like a big dream, forgetting where she was.The curtains are drawn, and she can see lone geese flying by while sitting on the couch, and from a distance, the spring is empty, and she is at a loss.

Wanton

The sky outside the window was already bright, and the cold light shone into the dark room.

Xiuxiu lifted the burden with difficulty, and closed the door carefully.She was going to take the burden to the outer courtyard, and calculated that the carriage would arrive by then.

Sure enough, there was a knock on the door outside.

The door slid open silently, and the light streamed in, reflecting the beautiful face of the visitor, looking like a paper-cut shadow.

Xiuxiu was surprised, and blurted out, "Sister Qiuyue."

Qiuyue walked in directly, her eyes without any emotion fell on the bundle in her hand from Xiuxiu's face.

"Where are you going?"

"Go back to my hometown. Sister Qiuyue, what can I do for you?"

Xiuxiu felt inexplicably guilty, as if there was a silent force oppressing her, making her dare not look at Qiuyue face to face.

Qiuyue came to Xiuxiu step by step, suppressed her emotions, and said slowly: "It seems that I was almost late. If I miss this time, I don't know whether I regret it or feel lucky."

"What do you mean?" Xiuxiu couldn't help asking.

"You really want to leave like this? You woman, you thought you kept saying that you cared about His Highness and thought about him wholeheartedly, but why did you want to leave at a critical moment? It's in vain that Your Highness likes you. Miss Xiuxiu, how did you become so Cruel?"

When Qiuyue came in, she was full of cynicism.Xiuxiu knows that she is a very stubborn person, even if she asks for something, her words are thorny.But these words were extremely useless, and she felt uncomfortable.Xiuxiu frowned and said, "I am now Mrs. Chu. I left Jiangling and returned to my hometown. I also practice women's ways. What does it have to do with others?"

"Hehe, do you want to live a life of pure heart and asceticism? To put it bluntly, I just want to build a chastity archway for myself." Qiuyue sneered, and said, "I am a very stupid person. I don't have any sense of shame and filial piety in my mind. Words. For the person I like, I know I can’t do it but I have to do it, even if it costs my life, I will do it regardless.”

After hearing this, Xiuxiu's heart felt like being hit, the corners of his eyes twitched, and he said calmly, "I'm not as good as Sister Qiuyue, so naturally I can't do it."

Then she didn't say anything anymore, and wanted to leave with a burden.

Qiuyue was stunned for a while, and stopped Xiuxiu.Xiuxiu gritted her teeth and ignored them, a few dodged, and Qiuyue suddenly knelt down in front of her.

For a moment, Xiuxiu was suffocated and said in a daze, "What exactly do you want me to do?"

"Go back to His Highness and help him...Only you can help him..."

Having said that, Qiuyue's eyes were full of compassion, and tears could not help but flow down.

Xiuxiu put down her burden, wanted to help Qiuyue up, took a breath and said, "Your Highness asked you to come?"

"No, I begged you on my own. Now His Highness is in danger, and everyone wants to persecute him and prevent him from taking the throne. His Highness didn't come to you because he didn't want you to be implicated innocently. It's almost hard for you to imagine , the majestic prince of Liang Guo, asked me about the things between you and him like a child every day, and pieced together the memories bit by bit. Every time he remembered even a little bit, he would jump for joy. In my memory I have never seen him be so serious for a woman! Miss Xiuxiu, I have been sorry to you before, for His Highness, for his infatuation, listen to my advice, don't go, help him. "

Listening to Qiuyue's narration, Xiuxiu's heart was turbulent, but she still suppressed it, and said slowly: "Thanks to sister Qiuyue, I really can't do it. Now I am just a widow. There is no other value. Brother Tianji died for me. This bloody case has not been solved so far, and his spirit in heaven cannot be at peace... My mother-in-law has no only son, so she no longer wants me as a daughter-in-law... and mine Mother, even though she has never hugged or loved me since childhood, she is my own mother after all. They are the most lonely and helpless people. I have to face them, whether they beat or scold me casually, This is an established destiny..."

She felt a pain in her heart, and tears rolled down.She pushed Qiuyue away abruptly, almost staggered out of the gate of Hanyuan, threw her luggage into the waiting carriage, got into the carriage by herself, and waved to the driver to start.

Qiuyue struggled to stand up, chased to the door, and cried into the car: "Even if you don't return to His Highness, you are a kind of comfort to him in Jiangling, give him a little strength. You walk like this quietly Now, what do you want Your Highness to do?"

Xiuxiu didn't care about anything else, and kept urging the coachman to go away quickly with his whip.The car shook slightly and quickly drove into a secluded alley.Looking from inside the curtain, Qiuyue's figure became smaller and smaller, her voice seemed to be very far away and could never be heard again.

It didn't take long for the carriage to arrive at the South City Gate, and the avenue was full of cars and horses, and it was as lively as usual.The guarded soldiers of the Northern Zhou Dynasty stood still, and the silver armor shone among the endless stream of pedestrians.

Xiuxiu was a little dazed, thinking of the long past that he had experienced.The sun, the moon, the stars, and the stars come and go, state affairs alternate, and Xiao Kui has ascended to the throne. When will the dragon and tiger flags of the Northern Zhou Dynasty stop flying on the walls of Jiangling?

After leaving the city gate, the sky and the earth become wide open, and the mountains are clear and clear in front of you.The grass is luxuriant, as if it is green to the end of the world.Butterflies fly and form clusters, idle clouds and tall birds fly together.The swallow murmured, and occasionally skimmed across the river, touching the water with the tip of its tail, and the ripples rippled away.A cool breeze blows by, blowing a burst of fragrance.

She suddenly heard the rapid and powerful sound of horseshoes behind her. The sound gradually became louder and louder, and she reached the side of the carriage in a short time.Xiuxiu turned his head slowly, and saw Xiao Kui riding side by side, his robes flying wildly in the wind, like a sail full of wind.His eyes, which were so clear to the bottom, just looked straight ahead quietly, with a rock-like unmoving expression.

As if her eyes were burned by someone who appeared suddenly, Xiuxiu hurriedly lowered her eyes, her voice trembling slightly.

"What are you doing here?"

"Why did you leave without saying goodbye?" he asked.

She knew that it must be Qiuyue who reported this to him, so there was no need to explain, she said with a stern heart: "Your Highness is looking for the former Xiuxiu, but I am no longer. I'd better go back to my hometown, and this life will come to an end like this. "

"I have already remembered the past Xiuxiu. The current Xiuxiu is more worthy of my love. My heart is honest with you, why are you still so closed?" He said loudly.

Xiuxiu looked at Xiao Kui, his serious expression was completely exposed, it looked as pure as spring water without a trace, but all the sadness dripped into the lake of heart, which made her suddenly feel a burst of pain.

"I have nowhere to go." She wanted to cry.

He looked at her and held out his hand to her: "come to me."

The carriage stopped at some point, and everything seemed to be a continuation.However, Xiuxiu didn't seem to listen, her heart was still wandering, and she refused to go ashore.

Falling flowers and flowing water meet each other, and the young man is upset.

What's more, they once had a delicate and fragile love.

"Your Highness, along the way, forgetting, growing up, being strong, and being quiet... all should be experienced, so I must learn to forget. At that time, I was innocent and believed in holding hands and growing old together. But now I realize that , the extreme of emotion is just a pack of poison, enough to kill people's hearts. So let me choose, I refuse to have... Your Highness's affection."

Xiao Kui trembled slightly, and was about to put his hand on her shoulder, but she dodged it.

"You still don't believe me? Do you not believe that there is happiness waiting?" He asked wistfully.

Her eyelashes were thick and heavy, and she tied and tied the dead knot in her heart.

"Your Highness doesn't need to keep me anymore, I've made up my mind to go. Being quiet and calm is also a kind of happiness. Go back to my hometown, live a life of dependence with my mother and mother-in-law, and live it calmly."

Xiao Kui's eyes were dim, and he was only in a daze for a long time.

The sound of the carriage sounded again, and Xiuxiu turned his face away.In a trance, she only heard Xiao Kui smile softly: "Xiuxiu, you are killing my heart..."

Except for the sound of the wheels, there was no other sound for a long time.

Xiuxiu looked sideways quietly, but Xiao Kui did not catch up, but just stood upright, BMW's white mane shining silver in the sun.Seeing the people and horses fade away and gradually disappear from sight, Xiuxiu couldn't help but burst into tears.

So farewell.

Why does my heart hurt more and more?
She saw the helplessness and anxiety in his eyes, and could feel his heartache.At this moment, she couldn't say another word of rejection.When he said he loved her, those deep eyes looked at her and told her plainly: he still remembers Xiuxiu and their stories.

I hope that moment will never pass away, take it to a distant place, and bring it into her dream.

But now, she was still alone, with a faint regret filling her heart.

Why give up?

People are not birds in the sky, not fish in the water, people and things passing by can disappear in smoke.But she is not, so she can't forget the one she loves, the pain of caring, the pain of lovesickness... From the moment of parting, she began to worry about her.

He really said that the current Hugh is more worthy of love.

He held out his hand to her and said, come to me.

Why refuse?

The remorse is getting deeper and deeper, overwhelming, and I can't control myself.

Unknowingly, the familiar sound of horseshoes came from behind again, and Xiuxiu suddenly felt something sweet rushing up in her heart, which surprised her inexplicably.She lifted the curtain of the car and stretched out her head to look outside.

Xiao Kui's white horse appeared, but Xiao Kui was nowhere to be seen.

"Stop! Stop!" Xiuxiu hurriedly shouted.

As soon as the coachman stopped the carriage, Xiuxiu quickly jumped out of the carriage.BMW seemed to recognize her, wagging his tail, slightly stretched out his tongue, showing an intimacy.

"Where's Your Highness?" Xiuxiu looked nervously at the way he came, and kept asking.

On the flat field, there are only undulating crops, and no one can be seen at all.The BMW was so intelligent, it seemed to understand Xiuxiu's words, looked up at the sky, and let out a whining sound.

At this moment, Xiuxiu couldn't even take care of her burden, so she spread her legs and ran back.With the sound of the BMW kicking hooves, the man and the horse galloped all the way.

The weather is fine, the wind is unstoppable, and with the sound of hurried footsteps and horseshoes, clothes are fluttering like butterfly wings.Along the way, the flowers follow each other, and the sorrows and entanglements in Xiuxiu's heart float with the wind, turning into catkins flying in the sky.

"Xiuxiu, you are killing my heart..."

She clearly heard his call and came towards the wind.

"I'm so stupid, I've been doing wrong things, how long do I want to be wrong..." She blamed herself in a low voice, as if she saw his clean eyebrows provoked sadness, showing a look of bewilderment and gloom.

The unspeakable worry gripped her whole body, making her almost lost her mind.Her heart was filled with sad happiness, and once she found him, she never left.

The sun is a bit harsh.

There is a slender figure on the edge of the cliff, standing facing the wind.Those blurred eyes stared at her with inexplicable emotions, as if falling into a dream, as if they wanted to bring her into the heartache he had forgotten.

Like a needle piercing into the heart vein, Xiuxiu was in excruciating pain and screamed, "What are you doing?"

Xiao Kui looked at her in a daze, and smiled.

"According to them, I fell from this place when I was chasing you. From that moment, I no longer have you in my memory. Until now, I still can't recall what happened that day, but I feel I must have known something and seen something. I made a bet to myself, if you don’t come, I will jump from here, maybe I can turn back time and let me go back to that time.”

"What are you talking about? You don't even want your life, you don't know how stupid you are!" Xiuxiu said tremblingly.

He was still smiling, almost talking to himself: "Look, I can't even take care of my life, which shows how important you are to me. You still have to leave me, I don't know what to do."

Xiuxiu walked up to Xiao Kui step by step, grabbed his hand and put it on her cheek, with tears in her eyes, her voice was unbelievably gentle: "I'm here, I won't leave anymore. You're scaring me, aren't you? "

There was a layer of water in Xiao Kui's eyes, and he moved his fingers lightly, as if caressing her, and as if confirming.Then, he smiled, genuinely, and said softly, "I'd rather you scold me a thousand times or ten thousand times than torture me and yourself like this."

Tears rolled down, but they were tears of happiness.Unable to control it anymore, Xiuxiu threw herself on Xiao Kui's chest.

Xiao Kui trembled, and sent a word of love to Xiuxiu's mouth, and gently kissed her lips very delicately, and then embraced her even more deeply.

The sweet taste and the fragrant breath spread instantly, some of hers, some of his.

That night, dazzling fireworks shot up over the palace.

Under the lighting of the fireworks, the buildings and palaces seemed to be covered with a layer of light red, like a beautiful face with flushed cheeks, and the two embracing figures melted into the floating light.

The moonlight shines through the screen window and sprinkles on the white crescent bed frame.Xiao Kui hugged Xiuxiu lightly, his lips penetrated from her forehead little by little, to her eyes and her lips, slowly rubbing against each other.Then the two kissed again like dry wood and fire, and all the suppressed emotions erupted like a volcano, tumbling, connecting the sky and the earth.Except for each other, the two completely forgot everything else.

They parted and reunited, lingering in the lingering, lingering in the lingering, tonight is their night.

The leak in the palace was deep, and in another part of Jiangling City, Xiao Hao stood for a long time looking in the direction of the palace.

The fireworks have long since dissipated, and the misty sheng music mixed with the aftertaste still permeates into his ears bit by bit.

Zheng Wei paced behind him, looking down the wind, not without ridicule: "The happiest and proudest thing at this time is Shen Buyu. He finally got his wish and became consummated."

"The saddest one is me." Xiao Hao said quietly.

Zheng Wei waved his hand nonchalantly: "A woman is nothing. On the other hand, this boy Xiao Kui remained motionless in his distress. Those rumors could not knock him down, and made me admire him. Hao'er, we need to change our tactics and take measures when necessary. Extraordinary measures to force it to make concessions!"

"If you trade the world for feelings, I would choose the latter." Xiao Hao sighed with unstoppable sadness in his heart.

"Don't be stupid! Do you want Xiao Kui to take all the good things in the world?" Zheng Wei became angry again, and warned, "Your uncle is also, Shen Xiuxiu moved into the palace, and he is worried about your cousin's position as queen. It's all self-defeating, just look at the circle in front of your eyes! Women are just subordinates of men, don't worry about such carelessness. Only when you have power in your hand can you live a free and easy life, think what you want, and do what you want!"

Xiao Hao swallowed his tears into his stomach and remained silent.When Zheng Wei left, he was still standing intently in the empty courtyard.

"Why can't I catch your heart?"
