If everything could come back
Chapter 5: Re-chapter Lingnan
marshal mansion
Yuzhi was walking towards Kou Zhong's room with the chicken soup she made by herself. Kou Zhong didn't come out when she had breakfast today. After thinking about yesterday's battle, Kou Zhong was seriously injured, so she didn't even come out for breakfast today, but What if you don't eat?Now that the sun is rising, she is really worried about his health, she is going to see him.
She specially made chicken soup for him. In fact, she wanted to make mung bean paste, but she didn't want Kou Zhong to know that she made it, so she changed it to chicken soup on purpose.
——So what about the rich man, how can it be as good as the chicken soup I made by myself, which is nourishing and delicious.
——Hey, I'm telling you to cut meat, not chop wood, it's hard to chew when you cut it so thick.By the way, did you fluff the meat with the back of a knife?
—You didn't tell me to do that.
——I don’t need to teach you these skills, do you?
—I never did it!Besides, you have to cook something for others to eat.
——I’ll do it myself, after all, it’s Miss Qianjin.
——I never tried to enter the kitchen when I was a child.
——Hey, then when you get married in the future, you must learn a few special dishes, otherwise no one will marry you.
——Whether I marry or not is none of your business!
In the past ten years, she has not only learned how to cook crabs and mung bean paste, she has also learned to cook many other dishes. She always changes the recipes every day, and then brings them to Kou Zhong’s grave, but the current Kou Zhong will definitely not know, he He will only think of her as that clumsy young lady who can't even cut meat well.Arriving at the door of Kou Zhong's room, Yuzhi paused and took a deep breath, Song Yuzhi, come on!Then knocked on the door.
"Who is it?" A deep voice sounded from inside the room.
"it's me."
Yuzhi?The people in the room were visibly shocked when they heard the answer from outside the door, and the door was opened immediately, "Yuzhi, are you looking for me? Come in quickly." Joy was printed on Kou Zhong's pale face, and he turned sideways to let Yuzhi in.
Yuzhi didn't shirk this time, she walked in with the chicken soup and put it on the table, and said casually: "The people in the kitchen saw that you didn't have breakfast, so they specially made chicken soup for you, I..." Without saying a word After that, Yuzhi found Kou Zhong standing beside her staring at her with a half-smile, his expression was obviously joy, she suddenly turned her head to avoid Kou Zhong's eyes as if she had been awakened by something, "Don't get me wrong, I just Bring it to you by the way."
"Really?" Kou Zhong still smiled, his tone revealing disbelief.He sat down and picked up the chicken soup on the table and drank it down. "Which chef made this? Why have I never had such chicken soup before? It's so delicious."
Yeah?Is she really so delicious? "I don't know, I just brought it for help. By the way, I haven't seen you out today. Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Instead of saying that she is changing the subject, it is better to say that the latter sentence is what she really wants to ask of.
"Yuzhi, are you worried about me?"
"No, I'll just ask. If you don't want to say it, forget it." She refused to admit it, and he didn't intend to continue to investigate further. If he got closer, the little white rabbit would get angry with him again.
"I, Kou Zhong, have a strong body and world-class martial arts, so why would I feel uncomfortable? It's just that I was a little tired from yesterday's battle, so I want to rest well today. Besides, I promised Ling Shao that I would wait for him to come back unscathed. I don't want him to see me lifeless as soon as he comes back." Kou Zhong explained that the little white rabbit was clearly worried about him.
"Kou Zhong, I came to you today because I have something to tell you." She would be at ease if he was fine, and since that was the case, it would be okay to tell him now.
"what's up?"
"I think...after Young Master Ling comes back to catch the wind for him, then...set off for Lingnan." Yuzhi still opened her mouth. She thought about it all night yesterday before she made up her mind.
"Why do you want to go back to Lingnan all of a sudden?" He stood up, "Are you blaming me for not making a choice? Is it because you care about me and Xiuning? Is it..." Hearing she said that she was going to leave, he really couldn't calm down.
"No, no, no." Yuzhi interrupted Kou Zhong's words, "It's purely because I'm homesick. I've been running around all these years, but I haven't really come home."
"Didn't you just go home not long ago? I went to Lingnan to look for you at that time." He said eagerly, how could she leave him and go back to Lingnan.
"It's different this time. Brother and Sister Xiuxun are about to have a wedding. I want to go back and help with it." Yuzhi had already thought of a reason, and she was sincere. When Song Shidao and Shang Xiuxun got married last time, she was still obsessed with losing Kou In Zhong's pain, he couldn't care about them at all, and couldn't bless them.Although she knew they wouldn't blame her, she was still brooding, and now she could go back to the beginning. This time, she must participate and send her blessings.
"Then I'll accompany you back." This time, he couldn't let Yuzhi leave him no matter what.
"No need, I can go back by myself. The battle in Luoyang has just ended. Although the handsome young army won, there were still a lot of casualties. You should take advantage of this time to recuperate and recharge your batteries." Yuzhi refused, and the more she The longer she stayed by his side, the more reluctant she was to leave him.
"Young Marshal is a strong soldier, this loss is nothing at all, besides, he can watch for me when Young Master Ling comes back." Kou Zhong approached her, begging in his eyes, "Yuzhi, don't push me away." Is it? At least let me send you back to Lingnan, so I can feel at ease."
Looking at Kou Zhong, she really couldn't bear it, but what if she couldn't bear it, they were already ten years late. Yuzhi thinks of the ten years since Kou Zhong left, no matter how sad she feels, she still has to carry on by herself.
However, Kou Zhong thought of Yuzhi going to Yangzhou in a fit of anger, looking for him from Lingnan to Baling alone, and going to Pegasus Ranch alone in frustration, so he realized how negligent he was to her before.
"Yuzhi, I promise you that if you don't want to see me in the future, I won't pester you anymore. But let me send you back to Lingnan this time, and I'll leave later, okay?"
Yuzhi was moved, in fact, how could she not want to be with him?
Okay...Since she is destined not to be with Kou Zhong for a long time, why not take advantage of this opportunity and cherish the only good time they have?What's more, what should she do in the future, she must think about this issue carefully in the days to come.After thinking about it, she nodded and agreed, "Okay, but you have to remember what you just said."
"Don't worry, I, Kou Zhong, will do what I say." Kou Zhong promised.
"Then you rest, I'm going out." She opened the door and walked out without stopping, leaving Kou Zhong in the room with a lonely face. At first he thought that Yuzhi was really worried about him, so he came to see him, and it turned out that she was really It's just by the way.She came here just to tell herself that she was going back to Lingnan?She doesn't want to see him anymore?She wants to avoid him.
Two days later, at the gate of Luoyang city
Kou Zhong, Yuzhi, and Xu Xingzhi led a group of young commanders to wait here. According to reports from the front, Ziling should arrive in Luoyang today, so he naturally has to take care of everything and prepare to welcome his good brother.Before anyone saw him, Kou Zhong couldn't wait to cross the gate of the city.
"Kou Zhong, can you stop walking around? You dazzled everyone's eyes." Yuzhi didn't give him the face of Young Marshal Kou at all.
"But it's been so long, Young Master Ling hasn't arrived in Luoyang yet, why do you say it's so slow? Could something happen on the way?"
"No, don't worry, the battle in Ling Shaoxu City must have been exhausting. After the war, you have to rush back to Luoyang. It's normal to walk slowly. Think about it. Is your good brother exhausted?" Yuzhi explained and also forgot to choke Kou Zhong, which made Kou Zhong feel that the two of them seemed to be back to the time when they hadn't quarreled before, which is really good.
"But…"
"No more." Yuzhi intercepted Kou Zhong's words, "Look, Young Master Ling is back." She pointed to the faintly approaching people in front of her.
The two stood in place and watched the team led by Ziling and Feixuan get closer and closer, and found that the two of them immediately looked haggard and haggard, which made Kou Zhong feel a little guilty. The loved one lives a carefree life in seclusion, but now he reappears in troubled times for him.
"Young Master Zhong, Yuzhi." From a distance, they saw the two waiting in line in front of the city gate, Ziling and Feixuan got off their horses and walked quickly, he was very relieved to see that Kou Zhong was fine.Kou Zhongyuzhi and the two immediately rushed to meet them, and the four of them had a lot of feelings when they met.
"Master Ling, it's great to see you come back safely." Kou Zhong put his hand on Ziling's shoulder and said solemnly.
"Me too." Ziling also put his hand on it.
"Young Master Ling, nothing happened between you and Feixuan in the battle of Xu Cheng this time?" Yuzhi was the one who spoke, and she looked at the two of them with concern, but also felt guilty because her relationship ruined their leisure life. And fight on the battlefield.
"It's nothing, but General Li's death made me feel very sorry all the time. If I hadn't killed all the black armored cavalry, maybe he wouldn't have to die." Whenever he thought of Li Jing, Ziling couldn't help feeling sorry.
"Young Master Ling, don't think about the past anymore. Although Li Jing's death is regrettable, we will definitely use a peaceful world to sacrifice him in the future." Kou Zhong promised.
Ziling nodded, "Yes, General Li's death will not be in vain."
"By the way, why don't you see Miss Li?" Feixuan asked.
"Xiu Ning and Li Shimin left, they should return to Chang'an now." Kou Zhong explained frankly that he didn't think it was a big deal.
"The two young marshals, why don't we go to the city?" Xu Xingshang proposed.
"By the way, I said patronizingly, Young Master Ling, you and your sister-in-law must be tired. Hurry up and go back to the Marshal's Mansion to rest. I will welcome the brothers in the evening."
"Young Master Zhong, what did you say? You said don't call me Feixuan's sister-in-law." Ziling corrected, with embarrassment on her face again, Feixuan still smiled lightly and didn't mind.
"Isn't it going to be sooner or later, I'll call to get acquainted first." Kou Zhong was still making fun of Ziling.
"Young Master Zhong!" Ziling stared, what a brat!
"Okay, okay, let's go back and talk about it, you two are not tired, Feixuan is tired too." Yuzhi hurried out to smooth things over, she said and pulled Feixuan inside, Ziling followed closely behind with a smile on her face Deep Kou Zhong.
At night, the Young Marshal's Mansion was still brightly lit, and the banquet hall was full of people, all of whom were brothers who bowed for the battle of Luoxu. Everyone at the next table had already shed their heavy armor, dressed lightly, and their faces were full of energy. It was obvious from a glance that they had had enough rest.
Kou Zhong stood up with a bowl of wine in his hand and said, "Young Master Ling, I respect you with this bowl of wine, and it's as a cleansing for you." A bowl of wine returned the respect.
As soon as Ziling finished drinking, Kou Zhong immediately picked up the second bowl of wine, "I respect the second bowl of wine to all the brothers present. If it weren't for you, I, Kou Zhong, would not be where I am today."
"If it weren't for you, Young Marshal, we wouldn't be where we are today!" Everyone raised their glasses of wine to pay respects to Kou Zhong, and started working with him at the same time.
After finishing drinking, Kou Zhong picked up the third bowl of wine, "This third bowl of wine, I would like to toast the Luoyang Xucheng battle, everyone! Cheers to our young commander's victory!"
"Cheers!" The audience echoed enthusiastically, and Ziling and Yuzhi also drank to their heart's content. Although Feixuan couldn't drink, she substituted tea. The atmosphere gradually became high, and the audience began to eat and drink wantonly.
"Hey! You drink less, too much will hurt your health." Yuzhi blocked the tenth bowl of wine that Kou Zhong was about to put into his mouth.
"That's right, Young Master Zhong, don't drink too much, or it will really hurt your body." Ziling echoed, and he whispered in Kou Zhong's ear, "Although we were not injured in this battle in Xucheng, Luoyang, we beheaded so many in one go. With so many people, the internal energy in the body will definitely be depleted, Zhong Shao, you should not touch too many fiery things now, and you should take good care of it for a month, otherwise it will be difficult to restore the previous skill."
"Understood Young Master Ling, since when did you bother the old woman? I promise you, just once tonight, no exception." Kou Zhong promised in a low voice that Ziling accepted. "Okay, everyone is so happy today, of course we must not get drunk and return home!"
Yuzhi looked at Kou Zhong, who was already looking drunk, and smirked helplessly to Ziling and Feixuan, it seemed that he must be drunk tonight.
"Hey, be careful, watch the road." At this time, Yuzhi was helping Kou Zhong, who was in a mess, to go to the room. We sent them back to the room together.
"Yuzhi...I'm really happy today...all of us...haven't been like this for a long time...sitting together and toasting." He spoke intermittently, regardless of whether Yuzhi was listening or not.
"Yes, yes, as long as you are happy." Yuzhi perfunctory, she freed up a hand to open the door of Kou Zhong's room.
"Yuzhi...are you unhappy?" Kou Zhong turned his head and looked at her with blurred eyes.
"I'm happy." Yuzhi replied casually, the door had already been opened by her, she helped Kou Zhong stumble in, and let him sit down beside the bed, "Go to sleep quickly, and a bowl of hangover soup will be fine tomorrow morning." She He planned to make Kou Zhong lie down, but unexpectedly, Kou Zhong suddenly grabbed her hand and brought her down together. Seeing this situation, Yuzhi immediately fell to the side and walked away from Kou Zhong. Turning over in one step, with his hands on her sides, the person was already above her.
"Yuzhi...you said that it would be great if we could go back to the past...you still call me dead Kou Zhong...I still call you an iron-mouthed chicken...no, you said...if I met you first...how much would it be Okay..." He smelled strongly of alcohol, and he was really drunk.
"Even if you met me first, I'm still a man in your eyes, right?" Does it matter who you met first?He will still fall in love with Li Xiuning first, she is not No.1 in his heart.
"No...no...if I met you first...then...everything would be different..." "Yuzhi... don't you go, okay? Don't leave me..." He moved closer to her, but in fact he had met her long ago She was amazing at first glance, if she was pretending to be a daughter at that time... He thought, he would definitely like her first!
"I'm leaving, you still have Young Master Ling by your side, you still have Big Brother Xu, and so many brothers in the Young Marshal Army... and... and Xiu..."
Kou Zhong interrupted, "I just want you... I just want you by my side... As long as you... as long as you are by my side is enough... really enough... really enough..." Kou Zhong said , leaning his head slowly to the other side of Yuzhi, and then fell into a deep sleep.Yuzhi looked sideways at Kou Zhong's sleeping face, thinking of what Kou Zhong said just now, tears slipped from the corners of her eyes unconsciously, and one drop fell on the bed.
Kou Zhong, do you know that you and I have gone back to the past, but we have no future.
After settling Kou Zhong, Yuzhi walked alone in the Marshal's Mansion. When she arrived at the gazebo, she leaned on a pillar with her hands folded and looked up at the sky. There were not many stars in the night sky today, only a few, and the light was faint.
"Yuzhi." Ziling came from behind.
"Master Ling?" Yuzhi turned around, "Didn't you go to sleep?"
"No, I can't sleep because I have something on my mind." Ziling looked at Yuzhi, "I came here specially to find you."
"Looking for me?" Yuzhi panicked, "What are you looking for?"
"You know, I told you before going to Xucheng." Ziling's eyes made her unable to avoid it.
"I do not know what you're talking about…"
"Yuzhi, I know that everything you are doing now is for Zhong Shao, but is it really okay to bear it alone? Zhong Shao is also my good brother, since you can tell me what you saw before He Shi Bi prophecy, why can't you tell me everything now?"
Yuzhi was silent, how could she tell him the real reason! "After I went to see Brother Shimin... I felt the prophecy of Heshibi again." No way, since she had already lied to Ziling from the beginning, then she I can only go on, "He Shibi told me...as long as Kou Zhong and I continue to be together, then even without Brother Shimin...Kou Zhong will still die."
"Impossible...I don't believe it." Ziling was surprised, why would God not let Yuzhi and Kou Zhong be together?This makes no sense at all! "Yuzhi, fate is in our own hands, we...we don't have to fully believe in He's Bi."
"Master Ling, but you and I can't take the risk, can't we?" Yuzhi asked back, but he remained silent, she knew that Ziling believed her.
"Young Master Ling, we have accepted He Shibi's prophecy from the very beginning, otherwise you wouldn't take the initiative to help Kou Zhong defend Xucheng, and you wouldn't mercilessly kill all the black-armored cavalry. Do you want to change Kou Zhong's original fate in Heshibi's prophecy? Young Master Ling, you should know... neither you nor I... can afford to gamble."
"Yuzhi..."
"Young Master Ling, so you can't tell Kou Zhong about this matter. Even if Kou Zhong and I are separated in the future, we will be happy each other. We should find a way to match him and sister Xiuning, and I will find my right husband in the future. This ending is good for everyone.”
"But..." "No but, Young Master Ling, I'm really fine." She lied to Ziling again.
"Yuzhi, I know how much you have feelings for Young Master Zhong." How could she be fine without Kou Zhong? "But no matter what happens in the future, you and I will always be good brothers and sisters."
"Of course." Yuzhi looked at the sky again, Ling Shao...forgive me...
After resting for a few days, Kou Zhong is finally going to accompany Yuzhi on his journey back to Lingnan today. The two packed up their luggage, each leading a horse, and saying goodbye to Concubine Ziling at the door.
"Feixuan, I'll go back to Lingnan to take care of the marriage between elder brother and sister Xiuxun. When everything is arranged, you must come to drink elder brother's wedding wine." Yuzhi and Feixuan were reluctant to part. The relationship has long been as close as sisters.
"You only invited Miss Shi to have a wedding banquet? Then what about Young Master Ling and I? Besides, Brother Song and Miss Shang's marriage needs your help. I'm afraid it will only make things more and more chaotic?" Seeing Yuzhi The reluctance in his eyes, Kou Zhong joked at the right time, in fact, if the little white rabbit is really reluctant, he doesn't have to leave!
"I can invite Ling Shao and Feixuan, but I won't invite you!" Yuzhi responded angrily, her tone was no longer as cold as before, she figured it out, as long as she can be with Kou Zhong, be happy Getting along for a while is enough for her.
"Then I'll go by myself. I think Brother Song must welcome me very much."
"you…!"
"Okay, okay, you two really don't have to go out until the night." Ziling stopped in time, and he was used to making two-person pause signs.
"No matter what, you have to take care on the way." Feixuan said.
"Well, when we arrive in Lingnan, Kou Zhong and I will write to you immediately."
"Young Master Ling, I'll leave this to you and Xingzhi." Good brother, it's up to you here.
"Don't worry, Xingzhi and I will take a good look at it." Ziling promised, hugged Kou Zhong goodbye, and reminded Kou Zhong, "Since you have this opportunity, take advantage of it. Your brother, I will do my best for you." It’s gone.” After thinking over and over again, Ziling still told Kou Zhong about He Shibi’s prophecy, because he felt that only the person concerned could decide about the relationship, and he didn’t want Yuzhi to miss Kou Zhong like this, and he didn’t want Kou Zhong to have any feelings for Yuzhi. Misunderstood, the two finally got together after all, so this time he wanted Kou Zhong to decide for himself.
"Of course, I won't let her go easily again. I don't want to die alone. Young Master Ling, thanks to you this time." If it wasn't for Ziling, I'm afraid he would never know that the little white rabbit had hidden such a secret in his heart. eventful.After Ziling told him, he was really happy and angry. He was happy because the little white rabbit had been treating him so recently because he was afraid that he would hurt him; he was angry because the little white rabbit would rather bear so much than tell him. , and pushed him all the way to Xiu Ning, but he will not be pushed away by her now.
"If you're a brother, don't say such things. Hurry up and get Yuzhi back." After speaking, the two ended their embrace.
"Okay, we really have to go." Kou Zhong bid farewell, and rode away with Yu Zhi.
Yangzhou
Kou Zhong leads Ma and Yuzhi for a leisurely walk in Yangzhou City, the two of them want to go back to Lingnan, they have to go through Yangzhou first, this is the place they met for the first time.
"Yuzhi, I have always wanted to ask you a question since we set off."
"what is the problem?"
"What is this pot of things you are holding in your hand?" Kou Zhong said while still using his fingers.
"Do you still need to ask? What I'm holding is obviously a potted plant." This question resulted in countless white eyes.
"I know, I mean there's nothing in it." He explained, of course he knew it was a potted plant.
Jade Tribute "There is a peach blossom seed inside, but it hasn't germinated yet."
"Little White Rabbit, you don't know how to grow flowers, look how well the peach blossom trees in the yard of my Young Marshal's Mansion are blooming." Speaking of this, Kou Zhong still raised his eyebrows proudly.
"Yes, yes, yes, it's very good, you didn't take care of it." She can always dismantle Kou Zhong's stage at the right time.
While the two were talking, a child rushed out from behind, he bumped into Yuzhi, luckily Kou Zhong hurriedly helped her up, but the flower pot fell to the ground and shattered.When the two of them tried to find the child again, he had already disappeared without a trace. This is really fast.
"Whose child is this? So naughty!" Kou Zhong was dissatisfied and dared to hit his Yuzhi.
"Forget it, he didn't do it on purpose." Yuzhi persuaded Kou Zhong, and she squatted down hurriedly, rummaging in the soil.Kou Zhong knew at a glance that this girl was looking for peach blossom seeds in the soil, so he also squatted down and followed her to find together, "Don't worry, Yuzhi, the seeds can't run without long legs."
"I found it!" She excitedly picked up the seeds she found from the soil, regardless of the soil in her hands.
"Let me just say it." Kou Zhong was glad that he found it, but he didn't expect a mere seed to make the little white rabbit so nervous.
Seeing Yuzhi's hands covered in mud in order to find seeds, he picked up a corner of his clothes and wiped them for her. She struggled, "Your clothes will get dirty."
"It doesn't matter, it's dirty anyway." Kou Zhong smiled meaninglessly, and continued to wipe for her, "I didn't wear a handkerchief, just let it go, and I'll fetch water for you to wash your hands in the inn." His movements were extremely gentle.
Yuzhi looked at Kou Zhong who was gently wiping for her, and was moved in her heart, but she seemed to suddenly think of something, and immediately pulled out her hand to touch her waist, and then said helplessly, "Kou Zhong, my purse stolen."
After listening to her, he looked at her expression with mixed feelings, and slowly laughed from a low voice to a big laugh, "Little White Rabbit, it seems that without me, you won't be able to go back to Lingnan."
"Then you're still laughing at me!" Yuzhi frowned, he must be at odds with Yangzhou, and every time he came, he would lose money and encounter thieves.The first time I met Kou Zhong in Yangzhou, I dropped silver on the carriage, and "kindly" asked Kou Zhong to steal it from a thief; when I returned to Yangzhou, I immediately let the thief steal my purse, causing myself to become an adult. A thief; this time again!Is it because she was born with a relationship with thieves, or because she can't have money by her side.
"Haha, okay, okay, I won't laugh anymore." Kou Zhong stopped, "Miss Song, why don't we go to an inn to have a big meal first, and then take a rest?"
"Then hurry up! You lead the way!" Yuzhi ordered, dare to laugh at her!Yuzhi was about to start, but she felt a familiar figure flash in front of her eyes, and she paused.Brother Shimin?How can it be!Li Shimin should be in Chang'an now, so why did he come to Yangzhou?Is she seeing it wrong?
"Yuzhi, why don't you leave?" Kou Zhong turned back.
"Oh, here we come." Yuzhi responded, and left with Kou Zhong, if she misunderstood, she will find out after investigating tonight.
In the dead of night, Yuzhi put on her night clothes and planned to go out. This time she was prepared to cover her face with a black cloth.If she read correctly today, that is to say, Li Shimin came to Yangzhou, then he will definitely go to his other courtyard, as long as he goes to find out the truth, if the person he saw today is really him, then he will come to Yangzhou What is the purpose?Could it be related to Kou Zhong?The more doubts in her heart, the more Yuzhi wanted to solve it as soon as possible. She jumped out of the window and ran all the way to the back wall of Li's house in Yangzhou. She was about to climb over the wall and enter, but was grabbed by someone. "Yuzhi, do you know that it's dangerous to come out alone?"
"Kou Zhong? Why did you come?" Yuzhi looked at Kou Zhong who was wearing good clothes. Could it be that he hadn't slept all this time?
"Are you allowed to investigate or not?"
"You also saw Brother Shimin?" Yuzhi was surprised.
"I saw it much earlier than you." Kou Zhong replied with a smile.
"Then you didn't tell me sooner, and I still wondered if I was wrong." She complained.
"You didn't ask me, why? Are you worried about me? That's why you came to check for me in the middle of the night." Kou Zhong's pointing eyes made her dare not look directly.
"You're still talking about me! I didn't even mention you! Since you're here to investigate, you don't even know how to wear night clothes." Yuzhi changed the subject at the right time.
"Do you think I, Kou Zhong, still need this thing? But you are quite self-aware, Little White Rabbit." Kou Zhong looked at Yuzhi in black with a funny face.
"Damn Kou Zhong! Why are you talking so much nonsense! Did you come to investigate? Can you get in?" Yuzhi pretended to be angry, and Shi Kou Zhong laughed at her again.
"Of course I want to go in." Before he finished speaking, Kou Zhong put his arms around Yuzhi's waist and locked her in his arms, and then lifted his body lightly, and the two of them flew over the wall and shuttled on the roof " Little White Rabbit, remember not to do anything, just stay by my side." Kou Zhong urged, Yuzhi nodded slightly, at this time she was lying on Kou Zhong's chest, listening to his real and powerful heartbeat.
Heart, very stable.
Kou Zhong took Yuzhi to stop on the dimly lit roof of a room, the two squatted down consciously, Yuzhi was about to take away some tiles so that he could hear clearly, but Kou Zhong grabbed him with one hand, and the whole person buckled down. In his arms, Yu Zhi was afraid of being heard by the people in the room, so he didn't dare to struggle, and the two of them kept on like this.Kou Zhong wraps Yuzhi in front of his body, puts his face close to her and whispers, "I can hear you clearly without holding those." This point wakes Yuzhi up, how could he forget that Kou Zhong's ears are very sensitive!She stopped moving, and Kou Zhongjing listened to the conversation in the room.
"King Qin, now we have no black-armored cavalry, and you have been recalled by the emperor for a long time. It is not easy to make a comeback." A general following Li Shimin sighed.
"Although it's not easy, I can't sit still. My father is imprisoning me in Chang'an. Although everything is fine now, my eldest brother and third younger brother are not planning to eradicate me all the time. If I don't want to fight back first, sooner or later Li Tang I will be depressed by them." Li Shimin knelt down on one knee and said, "Everyone, I, Li Shimin, can be oppressed alone, but Li Tang is the painstaking effort of everyone who has fought for many years. I don't want to see Li Tang ruined in this way. In the hands of the elder brother and the third younger brother, Li Shimin implores everyone to help me protect Li Tang."
"King Qin is serious! We will go through fire and water for King Qin, so you may as well say what King Qin thinks."
When Li Shimin heard this, he got up and continued: "I know that the Turks and Tubo have long intended to enter the Central Plains, but because the Central Plains is now divided into two points, I, Li Tang, and Kou Zhong's young commanders are the other. They have no way of deciding who will He is a wise master, so he dare not raise troops easily."
"What does King Qin mean?"
"I want to send people to Turkic and Tubo to talk and borrow troops!" Li Shimin explained, regardless of the surprised faces of everyone present.
"King Qin, the Turkic and Tubo people are all overbearing. They are like bandits. If you want to make peace, they will never be equal."
"But Shimin can't control so much now. Everyone should know that the eldest brother and the third younger brother are in collusion with the Demon Sect. Li Tang will perish sooner or later under their hands. Besides, there is still a force, that is the Young Marshal Army! If I don't take the risk Li Tang's status is in jeopardy."
"So the King of Qin wants to borrow troops from Turks and Tubo to put down the crown prince?"
"That's right. In this way, I can restrain the elder brother and the third younger brother, and at the same time be able to compete with the Young Marshal Army."
Kou Zhong on the roof sneered disdainfully after hearing this, and flew away from the roof with his arms around Yuzhi. "Hey! Why don't you listen? Have they finished?" Yuzhi in his arms asked.
"Do you still need to listen? Hearing this is enough." Kou Zhong looked at Yuzhi with a puzzled expression calmly, the two flew down and stood still, and they were already outside the other courtyard. "Who is it?" Yu Zhi was about to ask, but Kou Zhong immediately blocked her behind, stepped forward to fight with a figure, and the two stopped fighting at the same time after a short while.
"Kou Zhong, I didn't expect that your hearing is very good, but your eyesight is so poor." The man was still in pink, and she rested her chin on her hand to make a conclusion.
"Please sister, it's dark in the middle of the night, who knows who you are! If you don't wear less clothes, I really wouldn't be able to recognize you." Kou Zhong fought back, which made Yu Zhi, who was stunned to the side, finally wake up. "Wu Wan?" Yu Zhi ran over and looked at the two who were still confronting each other just now.
"If I had known that you two thieves would be eavesdropping, I wouldn't have come." Hou Hou expressed regret.
"Aren't you talking about us, you are also a thief." Kou Zhong continued to fight back.
"Okay, now is not the time to quarrel, why don't we go back to the inn and talk about it?" The two still love to compete... After Yuzhi said that, he moved forward, not paying attention to the surprise on the faces of Wanhou and Kou Zhong .Wan Wan was surprised when he and Yuzhi got so close?Didn't she hate herself very much before?Now she hooks herself so intimately!Kou Zhong's surprise was the same, when did Yuzhi get on good terms with this witch?She didn't take the initiative to hook herself!At this time, only Yuzhi understood, after all, after ten years, she no longer hates Wanwan as much as she did before, and Wanwan is a poor woman just like her!Ziling and Feixuan lived in seclusion in Lingnan, and Wanhou also appeared in Lingnan from time to time, and sometimes even came to visit her. The two of them sat down and chatted for an afternoon, and the old grudges in their hearts had long since disappeared.A few years later, Wanhou had Ming Kong, and she told her that she named the child in the hope that she would be extraordinary in the future, and her achievements would be like the sun and the moon in the sky. At that time, Yuzhi knew that Wanhou was no longer a witch, but a human being. mother.Thinking about it now, these things seem to have happened yesterday, but now...Wu Hou doesn't feel like her.
Inn
"What? You mean Brother Shimin wants to borrow troops from Turks and Tubo?" After hearing the news, Yuzhi became agitated. She couldn't believe that this would be the act of Li Shimin she knew.
"What's so strange about this? Dogs will jump over walls when they are in a hurry." Hou Wan said indifferently, spreading his hands.
"Wu Wan, why did you come to Yangzhou?" Kou Zhong, who had been silent since just now, finally spoke.
"Since Xu Cheng separated from Ziling last time, I have followed Li Shimin all the way to Chang'an. When he comes to Yangzhou, I will come to Yangzhou." Houhou explained with a look of reason, "As long as it is something that endangers Ziling, That's my business. I knew that Li Shimin would not let it go, and even secretly came to Yangzhou after being imprisoned."
"Miss Wanwan, I don't see that you are quite infatuated." Kou Zhong replied, in fact, should Ling Shao consider accepting another one.
"Then you are even more infatuated." Wanhou turned her head, looking at Kou Zhong and then at Yuzhi with malicious intentions.
"Well... Now that we know it, what should we do?" Yuzhi felt that it was better to continue talking about the business...
"How do I know, but since Young Marshal Kou already knows, there is no need for me to inform you again, I'm leaving." Hou Hou glared at Kou Zhong, then flew out of the window and disappeared into the boundless moonlight.
Kou Zhong still had a grumpy face, sitting at the table and drinking tea relaxedly.
"Hey! Are you still in the mood for tea?"
"I'm thirsty."
"Brother Shimin wants to borrow troops from Turks and Tubo!" Yuzhi said seriously, "It's true that the emperor is not in a hurry for eunuchs."
"Sister eunuch, but what's none of my business?" Putting down his teacup, he asked knowingly.
"Then won't he be able to attack the Young Marshal's Army again by borrowing soldiers?" How could Kou Zhong not understand such a simple truth.
"Then wait until he borrows it. How can my young commander's army of hundreds of thousands of soldiers be defeated by the mere soldiers he borrowed? Besides, Li Shimin has to deal with Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji and the others, and he can't take care of himself at all. Besides, you think Turks, What is Tubo? Will you lend troops to Li Shimin easily?" Kou Zhong was determined.
"Are you so sure? Don't forget that brother Shimin is from the north. He has northern blood. Maybe Turks and Tubo will sell him." She was still a little worried.
Kou Zhong sneered, "Really, you just have to pray that your brother Shimin won't be bitten by a dog instead of eating meat." How could he have never thought that Li Shimin is of northern blood, but since the Li family entered the Central Plains, they have completely broken off from outside the Great Wall. Let alone friendship, Li Tang should be lucky not to be envied.
"I hope it's as you said." She sighed, but Kou Zhong gave him a strange look, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Yuzhi, I found out that in the past, you should have gone to Li Shimin's side to remind him, but now you seem to only care about the Young Marshal, you only care about... me." He seemed to be pointing, especially emphasizing the last sentence The word "I" is self-evident.
"No way! I'm too lazy to talk to you." Yuzhi felt guilty and got up to leave.
"Don't go." Kou Zhong pulled her back and said seriously, "Yuzhi, Young Master Ling has already told me everything. I just want to tell you now that no matter what happens in the future, I, Kou Zhong, will always be with you, Song Yuzhi!"
She concealed the panic in her heart, she didn't expect that Ziling would tell Kou Zhong about this, which caught her off guard, what should she do?
After a long time, she finally said, "What about Miss Xiuning?"
"Xiu Ning and I have passed." Kou Zhong paused, staring at her and said solemnly: "Now I just want to be with you!"
Yuzhi blocked Kou Zhong's hand, and said with a smile, "Oh, Kou Zhong, do you know? You said you chose me after you knew about He Shibi. How sad is it for me, Song Yuzhi?" She questioned, "Just because of me. You care about your life, Kou Zhong, so you, Kou Zhong, were moved and chose me?" She knew it wasn't like this...
"Yuzhi, I say I want to be with you now because I know about He Shibi, do you understand? Even if I don't know about this, my heart is already biased towards you, but I, Kou Zhong, am useless ! Obsessed by a prophecy of He Shibi, that's why he refuses to admit it." Kou Zhong finished speaking in one breath, he just wanted Yuzhi to know that he was sincere.
"Kou Zhong, how about this... Let's all give each other some time to see our hearts clearly, if you still say that in the future..." "No matter how long you wait! I, Kou Zhong, will wait until the day you, Song Yuzhi, believe in you." He stretched out his hand hold her.
How can Yuzhi not know Kou Zhong's intentions, but she can't accept it, the relationship with a time limit will only make people more painful in the end... She knows and has tasted that kind of pain.So she must not let Kou Zhong bear it, God!Who will teach her what to do!
Both of them have no sleep tonight...
Yuzhi was walking towards Kou Zhong's room with the chicken soup she made by herself. Kou Zhong didn't come out when she had breakfast today. After thinking about yesterday's battle, Kou Zhong was seriously injured, so she didn't even come out for breakfast today, but What if you don't eat?Now that the sun is rising, she is really worried about his health, she is going to see him.
She specially made chicken soup for him. In fact, she wanted to make mung bean paste, but she didn't want Kou Zhong to know that she made it, so she changed it to chicken soup on purpose.
——So what about the rich man, how can it be as good as the chicken soup I made by myself, which is nourishing and delicious.
——Hey, I'm telling you to cut meat, not chop wood, it's hard to chew when you cut it so thick.By the way, did you fluff the meat with the back of a knife?
—You didn't tell me to do that.
——I don’t need to teach you these skills, do you?
—I never did it!Besides, you have to cook something for others to eat.
——I’ll do it myself, after all, it’s Miss Qianjin.
——I never tried to enter the kitchen when I was a child.
——Hey, then when you get married in the future, you must learn a few special dishes, otherwise no one will marry you.
——Whether I marry or not is none of your business!
In the past ten years, she has not only learned how to cook crabs and mung bean paste, she has also learned to cook many other dishes. She always changes the recipes every day, and then brings them to Kou Zhong’s grave, but the current Kou Zhong will definitely not know, he He will only think of her as that clumsy young lady who can't even cut meat well.Arriving at the door of Kou Zhong's room, Yuzhi paused and took a deep breath, Song Yuzhi, come on!Then knocked on the door.
"Who is it?" A deep voice sounded from inside the room.
"it's me."
Yuzhi?The people in the room were visibly shocked when they heard the answer from outside the door, and the door was opened immediately, "Yuzhi, are you looking for me? Come in quickly." Joy was printed on Kou Zhong's pale face, and he turned sideways to let Yuzhi in.
Yuzhi didn't shirk this time, she walked in with the chicken soup and put it on the table, and said casually: "The people in the kitchen saw that you didn't have breakfast, so they specially made chicken soup for you, I..." Without saying a word After that, Yuzhi found Kou Zhong standing beside her staring at her with a half-smile, his expression was obviously joy, she suddenly turned her head to avoid Kou Zhong's eyes as if she had been awakened by something, "Don't get me wrong, I just Bring it to you by the way."
"Really?" Kou Zhong still smiled, his tone revealing disbelief.He sat down and picked up the chicken soup on the table and drank it down. "Which chef made this? Why have I never had such chicken soup before? It's so delicious."
Yeah?Is she really so delicious? "I don't know, I just brought it for help. By the way, I haven't seen you out today. Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Instead of saying that she is changing the subject, it is better to say that the latter sentence is what she really wants to ask of.
"Yuzhi, are you worried about me?"
"No, I'll just ask. If you don't want to say it, forget it." She refused to admit it, and he didn't intend to continue to investigate further. If he got closer, the little white rabbit would get angry with him again.
"I, Kou Zhong, have a strong body and world-class martial arts, so why would I feel uncomfortable? It's just that I was a little tired from yesterday's battle, so I want to rest well today. Besides, I promised Ling Shao that I would wait for him to come back unscathed. I don't want him to see me lifeless as soon as he comes back." Kou Zhong explained that the little white rabbit was clearly worried about him.
"Kou Zhong, I came to you today because I have something to tell you." She would be at ease if he was fine, and since that was the case, it would be okay to tell him now.
"what's up?"
"I think...after Young Master Ling comes back to catch the wind for him, then...set off for Lingnan." Yuzhi still opened her mouth. She thought about it all night yesterday before she made up her mind.
"Why do you want to go back to Lingnan all of a sudden?" He stood up, "Are you blaming me for not making a choice? Is it because you care about me and Xiuning? Is it..." Hearing she said that she was going to leave, he really couldn't calm down.
"No, no, no." Yuzhi interrupted Kou Zhong's words, "It's purely because I'm homesick. I've been running around all these years, but I haven't really come home."
"Didn't you just go home not long ago? I went to Lingnan to look for you at that time." He said eagerly, how could she leave him and go back to Lingnan.
"It's different this time. Brother and Sister Xiuxun are about to have a wedding. I want to go back and help with it." Yuzhi had already thought of a reason, and she was sincere. When Song Shidao and Shang Xiuxun got married last time, she was still obsessed with losing Kou In Zhong's pain, he couldn't care about them at all, and couldn't bless them.Although she knew they wouldn't blame her, she was still brooding, and now she could go back to the beginning. This time, she must participate and send her blessings.
"Then I'll accompany you back." This time, he couldn't let Yuzhi leave him no matter what.
"No need, I can go back by myself. The battle in Luoyang has just ended. Although the handsome young army won, there were still a lot of casualties. You should take advantage of this time to recuperate and recharge your batteries." Yuzhi refused, and the more she The longer she stayed by his side, the more reluctant she was to leave him.
"Young Marshal is a strong soldier, this loss is nothing at all, besides, he can watch for me when Young Master Ling comes back." Kou Zhong approached her, begging in his eyes, "Yuzhi, don't push me away." Is it? At least let me send you back to Lingnan, so I can feel at ease."
Looking at Kou Zhong, she really couldn't bear it, but what if she couldn't bear it, they were already ten years late. Yuzhi thinks of the ten years since Kou Zhong left, no matter how sad she feels, she still has to carry on by herself.
However, Kou Zhong thought of Yuzhi going to Yangzhou in a fit of anger, looking for him from Lingnan to Baling alone, and going to Pegasus Ranch alone in frustration, so he realized how negligent he was to her before.
"Yuzhi, I promise you that if you don't want to see me in the future, I won't pester you anymore. But let me send you back to Lingnan this time, and I'll leave later, okay?"
Yuzhi was moved, in fact, how could she not want to be with him?
Okay...Since she is destined not to be with Kou Zhong for a long time, why not take advantage of this opportunity and cherish the only good time they have?What's more, what should she do in the future, she must think about this issue carefully in the days to come.After thinking about it, she nodded and agreed, "Okay, but you have to remember what you just said."
"Don't worry, I, Kou Zhong, will do what I say." Kou Zhong promised.
"Then you rest, I'm going out." She opened the door and walked out without stopping, leaving Kou Zhong in the room with a lonely face. At first he thought that Yuzhi was really worried about him, so he came to see him, and it turned out that she was really It's just by the way.She came here just to tell herself that she was going back to Lingnan?She doesn't want to see him anymore?She wants to avoid him.
Two days later, at the gate of Luoyang city
Kou Zhong, Yuzhi, and Xu Xingzhi led a group of young commanders to wait here. According to reports from the front, Ziling should arrive in Luoyang today, so he naturally has to take care of everything and prepare to welcome his good brother.Before anyone saw him, Kou Zhong couldn't wait to cross the gate of the city.
"Kou Zhong, can you stop walking around? You dazzled everyone's eyes." Yuzhi didn't give him the face of Young Marshal Kou at all.
"But it's been so long, Young Master Ling hasn't arrived in Luoyang yet, why do you say it's so slow? Could something happen on the way?"
"No, don't worry, the battle in Ling Shaoxu City must have been exhausting. After the war, you have to rush back to Luoyang. It's normal to walk slowly. Think about it. Is your good brother exhausted?" Yuzhi explained and also forgot to choke Kou Zhong, which made Kou Zhong feel that the two of them seemed to be back to the time when they hadn't quarreled before, which is really good.
"But…"
"No more." Yuzhi intercepted Kou Zhong's words, "Look, Young Master Ling is back." She pointed to the faintly approaching people in front of her.
The two stood in place and watched the team led by Ziling and Feixuan get closer and closer, and found that the two of them immediately looked haggard and haggard, which made Kou Zhong feel a little guilty. The loved one lives a carefree life in seclusion, but now he reappears in troubled times for him.
"Young Master Zhong, Yuzhi." From a distance, they saw the two waiting in line in front of the city gate, Ziling and Feixuan got off their horses and walked quickly, he was very relieved to see that Kou Zhong was fine.Kou Zhongyuzhi and the two immediately rushed to meet them, and the four of them had a lot of feelings when they met.
"Master Ling, it's great to see you come back safely." Kou Zhong put his hand on Ziling's shoulder and said solemnly.
"Me too." Ziling also put his hand on it.
"Young Master Ling, nothing happened between you and Feixuan in the battle of Xu Cheng this time?" Yuzhi was the one who spoke, and she looked at the two of them with concern, but also felt guilty because her relationship ruined their leisure life. And fight on the battlefield.
"It's nothing, but General Li's death made me feel very sorry all the time. If I hadn't killed all the black armored cavalry, maybe he wouldn't have to die." Whenever he thought of Li Jing, Ziling couldn't help feeling sorry.
"Young Master Ling, don't think about the past anymore. Although Li Jing's death is regrettable, we will definitely use a peaceful world to sacrifice him in the future." Kou Zhong promised.
Ziling nodded, "Yes, General Li's death will not be in vain."
"By the way, why don't you see Miss Li?" Feixuan asked.
"Xiu Ning and Li Shimin left, they should return to Chang'an now." Kou Zhong explained frankly that he didn't think it was a big deal.
"The two young marshals, why don't we go to the city?" Xu Xingshang proposed.
"By the way, I said patronizingly, Young Master Ling, you and your sister-in-law must be tired. Hurry up and go back to the Marshal's Mansion to rest. I will welcome the brothers in the evening."
"Young Master Zhong, what did you say? You said don't call me Feixuan's sister-in-law." Ziling corrected, with embarrassment on her face again, Feixuan still smiled lightly and didn't mind.
"Isn't it going to be sooner or later, I'll call to get acquainted first." Kou Zhong was still making fun of Ziling.
"Young Master Zhong!" Ziling stared, what a brat!
"Okay, okay, let's go back and talk about it, you two are not tired, Feixuan is tired too." Yuzhi hurried out to smooth things over, she said and pulled Feixuan inside, Ziling followed closely behind with a smile on her face Deep Kou Zhong.
At night, the Young Marshal's Mansion was still brightly lit, and the banquet hall was full of people, all of whom were brothers who bowed for the battle of Luoxu. Everyone at the next table had already shed their heavy armor, dressed lightly, and their faces were full of energy. It was obvious from a glance that they had had enough rest.
Kou Zhong stood up with a bowl of wine in his hand and said, "Young Master Ling, I respect you with this bowl of wine, and it's as a cleansing for you." A bowl of wine returned the respect.
As soon as Ziling finished drinking, Kou Zhong immediately picked up the second bowl of wine, "I respect the second bowl of wine to all the brothers present. If it weren't for you, I, Kou Zhong, would not be where I am today."
"If it weren't for you, Young Marshal, we wouldn't be where we are today!" Everyone raised their glasses of wine to pay respects to Kou Zhong, and started working with him at the same time.
After finishing drinking, Kou Zhong picked up the third bowl of wine, "This third bowl of wine, I would like to toast the Luoyang Xucheng battle, everyone! Cheers to our young commander's victory!"
"Cheers!" The audience echoed enthusiastically, and Ziling and Yuzhi also drank to their heart's content. Although Feixuan couldn't drink, she substituted tea. The atmosphere gradually became high, and the audience began to eat and drink wantonly.
"Hey! You drink less, too much will hurt your health." Yuzhi blocked the tenth bowl of wine that Kou Zhong was about to put into his mouth.
"That's right, Young Master Zhong, don't drink too much, or it will really hurt your body." Ziling echoed, and he whispered in Kou Zhong's ear, "Although we were not injured in this battle in Xucheng, Luoyang, we beheaded so many in one go. With so many people, the internal energy in the body will definitely be depleted, Zhong Shao, you should not touch too many fiery things now, and you should take good care of it for a month, otherwise it will be difficult to restore the previous skill."
"Understood Young Master Ling, since when did you bother the old woman? I promise you, just once tonight, no exception." Kou Zhong promised in a low voice that Ziling accepted. "Okay, everyone is so happy today, of course we must not get drunk and return home!"
Yuzhi looked at Kou Zhong, who was already looking drunk, and smirked helplessly to Ziling and Feixuan, it seemed that he must be drunk tonight.
"Hey, be careful, watch the road." At this time, Yuzhi was helping Kou Zhong, who was in a mess, to go to the room. We sent them back to the room together.
"Yuzhi...I'm really happy today...all of us...haven't been like this for a long time...sitting together and toasting." He spoke intermittently, regardless of whether Yuzhi was listening or not.
"Yes, yes, as long as you are happy." Yuzhi perfunctory, she freed up a hand to open the door of Kou Zhong's room.
"Yuzhi...are you unhappy?" Kou Zhong turned his head and looked at her with blurred eyes.
"I'm happy." Yuzhi replied casually, the door had already been opened by her, she helped Kou Zhong stumble in, and let him sit down beside the bed, "Go to sleep quickly, and a bowl of hangover soup will be fine tomorrow morning." She He planned to make Kou Zhong lie down, but unexpectedly, Kou Zhong suddenly grabbed her hand and brought her down together. Seeing this situation, Yuzhi immediately fell to the side and walked away from Kou Zhong. Turning over in one step, with his hands on her sides, the person was already above her.
"Yuzhi...you said that it would be great if we could go back to the past...you still call me dead Kou Zhong...I still call you an iron-mouthed chicken...no, you said...if I met you first...how much would it be Okay..." He smelled strongly of alcohol, and he was really drunk.
"Even if you met me first, I'm still a man in your eyes, right?" Does it matter who you met first?He will still fall in love with Li Xiuning first, she is not No.1 in his heart.
"No...no...if I met you first...then...everything would be different..." "Yuzhi... don't you go, okay? Don't leave me..." He moved closer to her, but in fact he had met her long ago She was amazing at first glance, if she was pretending to be a daughter at that time... He thought, he would definitely like her first!
"I'm leaving, you still have Young Master Ling by your side, you still have Big Brother Xu, and so many brothers in the Young Marshal Army... and... and Xiu..."
Kou Zhong interrupted, "I just want you... I just want you by my side... As long as you... as long as you are by my side is enough... really enough... really enough..." Kou Zhong said , leaning his head slowly to the other side of Yuzhi, and then fell into a deep sleep.Yuzhi looked sideways at Kou Zhong's sleeping face, thinking of what Kou Zhong said just now, tears slipped from the corners of her eyes unconsciously, and one drop fell on the bed.
Kou Zhong, do you know that you and I have gone back to the past, but we have no future.
After settling Kou Zhong, Yuzhi walked alone in the Marshal's Mansion. When she arrived at the gazebo, she leaned on a pillar with her hands folded and looked up at the sky. There were not many stars in the night sky today, only a few, and the light was faint.
"Yuzhi." Ziling came from behind.
"Master Ling?" Yuzhi turned around, "Didn't you go to sleep?"
"No, I can't sleep because I have something on my mind." Ziling looked at Yuzhi, "I came here specially to find you."
"Looking for me?" Yuzhi panicked, "What are you looking for?"
"You know, I told you before going to Xucheng." Ziling's eyes made her unable to avoid it.
"I do not know what you're talking about…"
"Yuzhi, I know that everything you are doing now is for Zhong Shao, but is it really okay to bear it alone? Zhong Shao is also my good brother, since you can tell me what you saw before He Shi Bi prophecy, why can't you tell me everything now?"
Yuzhi was silent, how could she tell him the real reason! "After I went to see Brother Shimin... I felt the prophecy of Heshibi again." No way, since she had already lied to Ziling from the beginning, then she I can only go on, "He Shibi told me...as long as Kou Zhong and I continue to be together, then even without Brother Shimin...Kou Zhong will still die."
"Impossible...I don't believe it." Ziling was surprised, why would God not let Yuzhi and Kou Zhong be together?This makes no sense at all! "Yuzhi, fate is in our own hands, we...we don't have to fully believe in He's Bi."
"Master Ling, but you and I can't take the risk, can't we?" Yuzhi asked back, but he remained silent, she knew that Ziling believed her.
"Young Master Ling, we have accepted He Shibi's prophecy from the very beginning, otherwise you wouldn't take the initiative to help Kou Zhong defend Xucheng, and you wouldn't mercilessly kill all the black-armored cavalry. Do you want to change Kou Zhong's original fate in Heshibi's prophecy? Young Master Ling, you should know... neither you nor I... can afford to gamble."
"Yuzhi..."
"Young Master Ling, so you can't tell Kou Zhong about this matter. Even if Kou Zhong and I are separated in the future, we will be happy each other. We should find a way to match him and sister Xiuning, and I will find my right husband in the future. This ending is good for everyone.”
"But..." "No but, Young Master Ling, I'm really fine." She lied to Ziling again.
"Yuzhi, I know how much you have feelings for Young Master Zhong." How could she be fine without Kou Zhong? "But no matter what happens in the future, you and I will always be good brothers and sisters."
"Of course." Yuzhi looked at the sky again, Ling Shao...forgive me...
After resting for a few days, Kou Zhong is finally going to accompany Yuzhi on his journey back to Lingnan today. The two packed up their luggage, each leading a horse, and saying goodbye to Concubine Ziling at the door.
"Feixuan, I'll go back to Lingnan to take care of the marriage between elder brother and sister Xiuxun. When everything is arranged, you must come to drink elder brother's wedding wine." Yuzhi and Feixuan were reluctant to part. The relationship has long been as close as sisters.
"You only invited Miss Shi to have a wedding banquet? Then what about Young Master Ling and I? Besides, Brother Song and Miss Shang's marriage needs your help. I'm afraid it will only make things more and more chaotic?" Seeing Yuzhi The reluctance in his eyes, Kou Zhong joked at the right time, in fact, if the little white rabbit is really reluctant, he doesn't have to leave!
"I can invite Ling Shao and Feixuan, but I won't invite you!" Yuzhi responded angrily, her tone was no longer as cold as before, she figured it out, as long as she can be with Kou Zhong, be happy Getting along for a while is enough for her.
"Then I'll go by myself. I think Brother Song must welcome me very much."
"you…!"
"Okay, okay, you two really don't have to go out until the night." Ziling stopped in time, and he was used to making two-person pause signs.
"No matter what, you have to take care on the way." Feixuan said.
"Well, when we arrive in Lingnan, Kou Zhong and I will write to you immediately."
"Young Master Ling, I'll leave this to you and Xingzhi." Good brother, it's up to you here.
"Don't worry, Xingzhi and I will take a good look at it." Ziling promised, hugged Kou Zhong goodbye, and reminded Kou Zhong, "Since you have this opportunity, take advantage of it. Your brother, I will do my best for you." It’s gone.” After thinking over and over again, Ziling still told Kou Zhong about He Shibi’s prophecy, because he felt that only the person concerned could decide about the relationship, and he didn’t want Yuzhi to miss Kou Zhong like this, and he didn’t want Kou Zhong to have any feelings for Yuzhi. Misunderstood, the two finally got together after all, so this time he wanted Kou Zhong to decide for himself.
"Of course, I won't let her go easily again. I don't want to die alone. Young Master Ling, thanks to you this time." If it wasn't for Ziling, I'm afraid he would never know that the little white rabbit had hidden such a secret in his heart. eventful.After Ziling told him, he was really happy and angry. He was happy because the little white rabbit had been treating him so recently because he was afraid that he would hurt him; he was angry because the little white rabbit would rather bear so much than tell him. , and pushed him all the way to Xiu Ning, but he will not be pushed away by her now.
"If you're a brother, don't say such things. Hurry up and get Yuzhi back." After speaking, the two ended their embrace.
"Okay, we really have to go." Kou Zhong bid farewell, and rode away with Yu Zhi.
Yangzhou
Kou Zhong leads Ma and Yuzhi for a leisurely walk in Yangzhou City, the two of them want to go back to Lingnan, they have to go through Yangzhou first, this is the place they met for the first time.
"Yuzhi, I have always wanted to ask you a question since we set off."
"what is the problem?"
"What is this pot of things you are holding in your hand?" Kou Zhong said while still using his fingers.
"Do you still need to ask? What I'm holding is obviously a potted plant." This question resulted in countless white eyes.
"I know, I mean there's nothing in it." He explained, of course he knew it was a potted plant.
Jade Tribute "There is a peach blossom seed inside, but it hasn't germinated yet."
"Little White Rabbit, you don't know how to grow flowers, look how well the peach blossom trees in the yard of my Young Marshal's Mansion are blooming." Speaking of this, Kou Zhong still raised his eyebrows proudly.
"Yes, yes, yes, it's very good, you didn't take care of it." She can always dismantle Kou Zhong's stage at the right time.
While the two were talking, a child rushed out from behind, he bumped into Yuzhi, luckily Kou Zhong hurriedly helped her up, but the flower pot fell to the ground and shattered.When the two of them tried to find the child again, he had already disappeared without a trace. This is really fast.
"Whose child is this? So naughty!" Kou Zhong was dissatisfied and dared to hit his Yuzhi.
"Forget it, he didn't do it on purpose." Yuzhi persuaded Kou Zhong, and she squatted down hurriedly, rummaging in the soil.Kou Zhong knew at a glance that this girl was looking for peach blossom seeds in the soil, so he also squatted down and followed her to find together, "Don't worry, Yuzhi, the seeds can't run without long legs."
"I found it!" She excitedly picked up the seeds she found from the soil, regardless of the soil in her hands.
"Let me just say it." Kou Zhong was glad that he found it, but he didn't expect a mere seed to make the little white rabbit so nervous.
Seeing Yuzhi's hands covered in mud in order to find seeds, he picked up a corner of his clothes and wiped them for her. She struggled, "Your clothes will get dirty."
"It doesn't matter, it's dirty anyway." Kou Zhong smiled meaninglessly, and continued to wipe for her, "I didn't wear a handkerchief, just let it go, and I'll fetch water for you to wash your hands in the inn." His movements were extremely gentle.
Yuzhi looked at Kou Zhong who was gently wiping for her, and was moved in her heart, but she seemed to suddenly think of something, and immediately pulled out her hand to touch her waist, and then said helplessly, "Kou Zhong, my purse stolen."
After listening to her, he looked at her expression with mixed feelings, and slowly laughed from a low voice to a big laugh, "Little White Rabbit, it seems that without me, you won't be able to go back to Lingnan."
"Then you're still laughing at me!" Yuzhi frowned, he must be at odds with Yangzhou, and every time he came, he would lose money and encounter thieves.The first time I met Kou Zhong in Yangzhou, I dropped silver on the carriage, and "kindly" asked Kou Zhong to steal it from a thief; when I returned to Yangzhou, I immediately let the thief steal my purse, causing myself to become an adult. A thief; this time again!Is it because she was born with a relationship with thieves, or because she can't have money by her side.
"Haha, okay, okay, I won't laugh anymore." Kou Zhong stopped, "Miss Song, why don't we go to an inn to have a big meal first, and then take a rest?"
"Then hurry up! You lead the way!" Yuzhi ordered, dare to laugh at her!Yuzhi was about to start, but she felt a familiar figure flash in front of her eyes, and she paused.Brother Shimin?How can it be!Li Shimin should be in Chang'an now, so why did he come to Yangzhou?Is she seeing it wrong?
"Yuzhi, why don't you leave?" Kou Zhong turned back.
"Oh, here we come." Yuzhi responded, and left with Kou Zhong, if she misunderstood, she will find out after investigating tonight.
In the dead of night, Yuzhi put on her night clothes and planned to go out. This time she was prepared to cover her face with a black cloth.If she read correctly today, that is to say, Li Shimin came to Yangzhou, then he will definitely go to his other courtyard, as long as he goes to find out the truth, if the person he saw today is really him, then he will come to Yangzhou What is the purpose?Could it be related to Kou Zhong?The more doubts in her heart, the more Yuzhi wanted to solve it as soon as possible. She jumped out of the window and ran all the way to the back wall of Li's house in Yangzhou. She was about to climb over the wall and enter, but was grabbed by someone. "Yuzhi, do you know that it's dangerous to come out alone?"
"Kou Zhong? Why did you come?" Yuzhi looked at Kou Zhong who was wearing good clothes. Could it be that he hadn't slept all this time?
"Are you allowed to investigate or not?"
"You also saw Brother Shimin?" Yuzhi was surprised.
"I saw it much earlier than you." Kou Zhong replied with a smile.
"Then you didn't tell me sooner, and I still wondered if I was wrong." She complained.
"You didn't ask me, why? Are you worried about me? That's why you came to check for me in the middle of the night." Kou Zhong's pointing eyes made her dare not look directly.
"You're still talking about me! I didn't even mention you! Since you're here to investigate, you don't even know how to wear night clothes." Yuzhi changed the subject at the right time.
"Do you think I, Kou Zhong, still need this thing? But you are quite self-aware, Little White Rabbit." Kou Zhong looked at Yuzhi in black with a funny face.
"Damn Kou Zhong! Why are you talking so much nonsense! Did you come to investigate? Can you get in?" Yuzhi pretended to be angry, and Shi Kou Zhong laughed at her again.
"Of course I want to go in." Before he finished speaking, Kou Zhong put his arms around Yuzhi's waist and locked her in his arms, and then lifted his body lightly, and the two of them flew over the wall and shuttled on the roof " Little White Rabbit, remember not to do anything, just stay by my side." Kou Zhong urged, Yuzhi nodded slightly, at this time she was lying on Kou Zhong's chest, listening to his real and powerful heartbeat.
Heart, very stable.
Kou Zhong took Yuzhi to stop on the dimly lit roof of a room, the two squatted down consciously, Yuzhi was about to take away some tiles so that he could hear clearly, but Kou Zhong grabbed him with one hand, and the whole person buckled down. In his arms, Yu Zhi was afraid of being heard by the people in the room, so he didn't dare to struggle, and the two of them kept on like this.Kou Zhong wraps Yuzhi in front of his body, puts his face close to her and whispers, "I can hear you clearly without holding those." This point wakes Yuzhi up, how could he forget that Kou Zhong's ears are very sensitive!She stopped moving, and Kou Zhongjing listened to the conversation in the room.
"King Qin, now we have no black-armored cavalry, and you have been recalled by the emperor for a long time. It is not easy to make a comeback." A general following Li Shimin sighed.
"Although it's not easy, I can't sit still. My father is imprisoning me in Chang'an. Although everything is fine now, my eldest brother and third younger brother are not planning to eradicate me all the time. If I don't want to fight back first, sooner or later Li Tang I will be depressed by them." Li Shimin knelt down on one knee and said, "Everyone, I, Li Shimin, can be oppressed alone, but Li Tang is the painstaking effort of everyone who has fought for many years. I don't want to see Li Tang ruined in this way. In the hands of the elder brother and the third younger brother, Li Shimin implores everyone to help me protect Li Tang."
"King Qin is serious! We will go through fire and water for King Qin, so you may as well say what King Qin thinks."
When Li Shimin heard this, he got up and continued: "I know that the Turks and Tubo have long intended to enter the Central Plains, but because the Central Plains is now divided into two points, I, Li Tang, and Kou Zhong's young commanders are the other. They have no way of deciding who will He is a wise master, so he dare not raise troops easily."
"What does King Qin mean?"
"I want to send people to Turkic and Tubo to talk and borrow troops!" Li Shimin explained, regardless of the surprised faces of everyone present.
"King Qin, the Turkic and Tubo people are all overbearing. They are like bandits. If you want to make peace, they will never be equal."
"But Shimin can't control so much now. Everyone should know that the eldest brother and the third younger brother are in collusion with the Demon Sect. Li Tang will perish sooner or later under their hands. Besides, there is still a force, that is the Young Marshal Army! If I don't take the risk Li Tang's status is in jeopardy."
"So the King of Qin wants to borrow troops from Turks and Tubo to put down the crown prince?"
"That's right. In this way, I can restrain the elder brother and the third younger brother, and at the same time be able to compete with the Young Marshal Army."
Kou Zhong on the roof sneered disdainfully after hearing this, and flew away from the roof with his arms around Yuzhi. "Hey! Why don't you listen? Have they finished?" Yuzhi in his arms asked.
"Do you still need to listen? Hearing this is enough." Kou Zhong looked at Yuzhi with a puzzled expression calmly, the two flew down and stood still, and they were already outside the other courtyard. "Who is it?" Yu Zhi was about to ask, but Kou Zhong immediately blocked her behind, stepped forward to fight with a figure, and the two stopped fighting at the same time after a short while.
"Kou Zhong, I didn't expect that your hearing is very good, but your eyesight is so poor." The man was still in pink, and she rested her chin on her hand to make a conclusion.
"Please sister, it's dark in the middle of the night, who knows who you are! If you don't wear less clothes, I really wouldn't be able to recognize you." Kou Zhong fought back, which made Yu Zhi, who was stunned to the side, finally wake up. "Wu Wan?" Yu Zhi ran over and looked at the two who were still confronting each other just now.
"If I had known that you two thieves would be eavesdropping, I wouldn't have come." Hou Hou expressed regret.
"Aren't you talking about us, you are also a thief." Kou Zhong continued to fight back.
"Okay, now is not the time to quarrel, why don't we go back to the inn and talk about it?" The two still love to compete... After Yuzhi said that, he moved forward, not paying attention to the surprise on the faces of Wanhou and Kou Zhong .Wan Wan was surprised when he and Yuzhi got so close?Didn't she hate herself very much before?Now she hooks herself so intimately!Kou Zhong's surprise was the same, when did Yuzhi get on good terms with this witch?She didn't take the initiative to hook herself!At this time, only Yuzhi understood, after all, after ten years, she no longer hates Wanwan as much as she did before, and Wanwan is a poor woman just like her!Ziling and Feixuan lived in seclusion in Lingnan, and Wanhou also appeared in Lingnan from time to time, and sometimes even came to visit her. The two of them sat down and chatted for an afternoon, and the old grudges in their hearts had long since disappeared.A few years later, Wanhou had Ming Kong, and she told her that she named the child in the hope that she would be extraordinary in the future, and her achievements would be like the sun and the moon in the sky. At that time, Yuzhi knew that Wanhou was no longer a witch, but a human being. mother.Thinking about it now, these things seem to have happened yesterday, but now...Wu Hou doesn't feel like her.
Inn
"What? You mean Brother Shimin wants to borrow troops from Turks and Tubo?" After hearing the news, Yuzhi became agitated. She couldn't believe that this would be the act of Li Shimin she knew.
"What's so strange about this? Dogs will jump over walls when they are in a hurry." Hou Wan said indifferently, spreading his hands.
"Wu Wan, why did you come to Yangzhou?" Kou Zhong, who had been silent since just now, finally spoke.
"Since Xu Cheng separated from Ziling last time, I have followed Li Shimin all the way to Chang'an. When he comes to Yangzhou, I will come to Yangzhou." Houhou explained with a look of reason, "As long as it is something that endangers Ziling, That's my business. I knew that Li Shimin would not let it go, and even secretly came to Yangzhou after being imprisoned."
"Miss Wanwan, I don't see that you are quite infatuated." Kou Zhong replied, in fact, should Ling Shao consider accepting another one.
"Then you are even more infatuated." Wanhou turned her head, looking at Kou Zhong and then at Yuzhi with malicious intentions.
"Well... Now that we know it, what should we do?" Yuzhi felt that it was better to continue talking about the business...
"How do I know, but since Young Marshal Kou already knows, there is no need for me to inform you again, I'm leaving." Hou Hou glared at Kou Zhong, then flew out of the window and disappeared into the boundless moonlight.
Kou Zhong still had a grumpy face, sitting at the table and drinking tea relaxedly.
"Hey! Are you still in the mood for tea?"
"I'm thirsty."
"Brother Shimin wants to borrow troops from Turks and Tubo!" Yuzhi said seriously, "It's true that the emperor is not in a hurry for eunuchs."
"Sister eunuch, but what's none of my business?" Putting down his teacup, he asked knowingly.
"Then won't he be able to attack the Young Marshal's Army again by borrowing soldiers?" How could Kou Zhong not understand such a simple truth.
"Then wait until he borrows it. How can my young commander's army of hundreds of thousands of soldiers be defeated by the mere soldiers he borrowed? Besides, Li Shimin has to deal with Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji and the others, and he can't take care of himself at all. Besides, you think Turks, What is Tubo? Will you lend troops to Li Shimin easily?" Kou Zhong was determined.
"Are you so sure? Don't forget that brother Shimin is from the north. He has northern blood. Maybe Turks and Tubo will sell him." She was still a little worried.
Kou Zhong sneered, "Really, you just have to pray that your brother Shimin won't be bitten by a dog instead of eating meat." How could he have never thought that Li Shimin is of northern blood, but since the Li family entered the Central Plains, they have completely broken off from outside the Great Wall. Let alone friendship, Li Tang should be lucky not to be envied.
"I hope it's as you said." She sighed, but Kou Zhong gave him a strange look, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Yuzhi, I found out that in the past, you should have gone to Li Shimin's side to remind him, but now you seem to only care about the Young Marshal, you only care about... me." He seemed to be pointing, especially emphasizing the last sentence The word "I" is self-evident.
"No way! I'm too lazy to talk to you." Yuzhi felt guilty and got up to leave.
"Don't go." Kou Zhong pulled her back and said seriously, "Yuzhi, Young Master Ling has already told me everything. I just want to tell you now that no matter what happens in the future, I, Kou Zhong, will always be with you, Song Yuzhi!"
She concealed the panic in her heart, she didn't expect that Ziling would tell Kou Zhong about this, which caught her off guard, what should she do?
After a long time, she finally said, "What about Miss Xiuning?"
"Xiu Ning and I have passed." Kou Zhong paused, staring at her and said solemnly: "Now I just want to be with you!"
Yuzhi blocked Kou Zhong's hand, and said with a smile, "Oh, Kou Zhong, do you know? You said you chose me after you knew about He Shibi. How sad is it for me, Song Yuzhi?" She questioned, "Just because of me. You care about your life, Kou Zhong, so you, Kou Zhong, were moved and chose me?" She knew it wasn't like this...
"Yuzhi, I say I want to be with you now because I know about He Shibi, do you understand? Even if I don't know about this, my heart is already biased towards you, but I, Kou Zhong, am useless ! Obsessed by a prophecy of He Shibi, that's why he refuses to admit it." Kou Zhong finished speaking in one breath, he just wanted Yuzhi to know that he was sincere.
"Kou Zhong, how about this... Let's all give each other some time to see our hearts clearly, if you still say that in the future..." "No matter how long you wait! I, Kou Zhong, will wait until the day you, Song Yuzhi, believe in you." He stretched out his hand hold her.
How can Yuzhi not know Kou Zhong's intentions, but she can't accept it, the relationship with a time limit will only make people more painful in the end... She knows and has tasted that kind of pain.So she must not let Kou Zhong bear it, God!Who will teach her what to do!
Both of them have no sleep tonight...
