Ten miles of lanterns, and the bright light spreads across the beautiful night.

The river water flows under the railings, and the snow falls silently on people.

The cloak blocked all the wind and snow, and the man's lips fell on her lips with a slight warmth. Like the bowl of sesame Lantern Festival I just ate, the lips and teeth were soft and sweet.

He Yan heard his heartbeat, and in this snow, it was fresh and powerful, one after another. His robe was still cold with the wind and snow, but his posture was gentle as if he was the only treasure in his life.

It seems like the moment is to last forever.

No one will be moved by the person in front of you.

When her lips left, He Yan felt a little nostalgic. She raised her head and looked at the other party. Xiao Jue lowered her eyes and sorted out her hair that had just been blown by the wind for her.

His ears were already red like ripe shrimps, and He Yan whispered: "...Xiao Jue, are you not angry anymore?"

Xiao Jue sighed silently.

"Xu Zhiheng... It's the past." He Yan thought about it and looked at him seriously and said, "If the past makes you unhappy, I apologize to you. I don't know what the girl next to me will do when she gets along with the person she likes. I spend more time being a man than a woman. Xiao Jue, I will be nice to you. What do you like, I will find a way to send you. What do you hate, I will also help you drive away. If someone bullies you, I will definitely stand up for you. I will not deceive you or hurt you... Is this OK?"

Actually, now thinking about it, even if she was with Xu Zhiheng, she actually did not do anything like a lover. This is certainly because Xu Zhiheng is not a good person, but she herself does not know how to treat the person she likes.

When I was young, I had very few truths about "love". I also wanted to get pity from my biological father and mother, so I deliberately pleased me. Even when I came to the battlefield, this humbleness was hidden very well, but what was engraved in my bones was like white bones buried under the wind and sand. When the wind blew, it would still be revealed.

Being a general learns to control and be decisive. She can take care of people, but she will not deal with more intimate relationships with people. Those vague feelings make her not know whether what she is doing is right or wrong.

Xiao Jue's eyes were fixed on her. The girl was holding the bright red candied haws in her hand. She looked up at her eyes, full of truth and a little uncertain and cautious.

I thought it was a liar who could tell a lie, but now it seems that there is no such liar in the world. When I meet someone, I will cut a heart naked and let others see it clearly. There are so many people in the world, whether men or women, who cover up and test it in love, but they don’t want people to discover their true feelings, and they always feel that they lose if they say it. Only the person in front of me is open and honest, clear, without any skills, without any means, and straightforward, just like killing the master's slaughter, making him feel moved for no reason.

I was only moved by her.

But... it is such a person who clearly gives him his true heart. How could Xu Zhiheng be hurt by harsh actions?

He was not angry because of He Yan's past taste. His more annoyance probably came from his miss and his anger at his miss. Just like the doe I let go in the mountains when I was young, its wet eyes were gloomy, full of trust and joy, but Xu Zhiheng abandoned this trust and cut it off with one knife.

The better He Yan is, the more angry he is towards Xu Zhiheng deep in his heart.

Seeing that Xiao Jue was still not talking, He Yan thought he was still angry, and thought for a while and spoke in frustration: "Or do you have any better ideas? I can't do anything good to play piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Don't let me learn it, either. It's okay to help you move a stone to chop firewood..."

Before she could finish her words, Xiao Jue hugged her in her arms.

"You are you, you don't need to do anything for me."

He Yan's head was against his chin, and he couldn't raise his head, and he couldn't see what his expression was.

"But……"

"I don't like karaokes, and I don't need to accompany the servants. No one dares to bully me. I won't touch things I don't like, I will buy things I like myself." Xiao Jue lowered his head and smiled.

"But...then I'm a decoration?"

"I don't like you because I want to have multiple people," his voice fell, as if it was far away, and as if it was very close. "Do whatever you want, don't have to do it for me."

"You really... have nothing to ask for me?" He Yan asked.

There must be the same thing, such as observing the public and abiding by the law, respecting the elderly and loving the young, otherwise she can do anything, can she have a crush on her?

Xiao Jue let go of his hand, looked at the crowd in the distance, smiled, and looked down at her: "Not there is no one."

“What is it?”

"If I keep watching you," he reached out and grabbed He Yan's hand. The girl's hand was only half the size of his, and fell into the other party's palm, like a small treasure. "He Yan, you just keep watching me."

He Yan stared at him in a daze.

"Don't you understand Miss He's words?" He raised his eyebrows slightly, and a warm curve was curled up at the corners of his lips. The lanterns reflected into his long eyes. There were thousands of postures and colors, but his eyes were clearly the brightest one.

Time seems to be still at this moment, with fireworks set off in the distance, and thousands of brilliances fell into the night sky. This is a perfect night of lights.

He Yan lowered his head, covered the tide that flashed in his eyes, held his hand with his back, and raised his head with a smile: "Today is your birthday, I agree to everything you said."

"Xiao Jue, happy birthday." She said.

I will keep looking at you, and she answered silently in her heart.

...

When they went back, He Yunsheng and He Sui had already arrived home.

Qingmei had already told the truth, only that today was Xiao Jue's birthday, and He Yan accompanied Xiao Jue to the night market. He Sui didn't say anything, but He Yunsheng was very unhappy. In just one stick of incense, he had already walked back and forth in the house several times.

When He Yan and Xiao Jue returned, they looked at the hands they were shaking together, and their faces looked even more ugly.

He Sui asked, "I heard that today is Huaijin's birthday, so I can have a meal? Why don't you eat a bowl of longevity noodles here before leaving?"

"We've already eaten." He Yan said: "Just when we were just visiting the night market."

"You're empty-handed..." He Sui noticed that Xiao Jue had nothing on him and looked at He Yan suspiciously, "Yan Yan, you might not have prepared a birthday gift for Huai Jin, right? This child," He Sui smiled and said, "I'm spoiled by me. I don't understand these human feelings. Huai Jin should not take it seriously. I'll let her provide you with it another day."

"No, Yan Yan has already given it." Xiao Jue said.

He Yan remembered the scene at the night market just now, his face turned slightly red and he didn't say anything for a moment. He Sui didn't hear anything implied. Although he didn't understand, he didn't ask much. He Yunsheng vigilantly swept around between He Yan and Xiao Jue, thinking about something.

"It's not too early, you can go back first." He Yan said: "If you have any problems, I'll let Chiwu come to find you."

Xiao Jue nodded, said goodbye to He Sui and He Yunsheng before leaving the He family.

After Xiao Jue left, He Yunsheng pulled He Yan into the inner room. As soon as he entered the room, he closed the door and asked in a slight manner: "Hey, He Yan, you went out with him, have you been taken advantage of?"

"What are the advantages?" He Yan knocked his head, "Where did you learn so much at such a young age? Besides, who can take advantage of me when I stand with Xiao Jue?"

He Yunsheng glanced at her, "You think I'm idle."

Seeing that he looked worried, He Yan sat down and poured himself a cup of tea, "Just because of this, are you so sad?"

"No," He Yunsheng sighed, "Today I heard from several friends in the school that it seems that Uttor is coming to Beijing soon."

He Yan's tea-drinking action was paused, "Who did you hear?"

"It spread everywhere. The emperor didn't want to fight, and the court didn't want to fight. I heard that the ukulele went to Beijing to seek peace, and this battle would probably not be fought."

He Yan looked at his expression, "Do you want to fight?"

"Of course I don't want it!" He Yunsheng replied without thinking, "But if the Utuner was really willing to seek peace, he would not have done so many things in Jiyang or Huayuan in Rundu. We were the ones who were the dominant ones now, so what was going on to give way to the Utuner?" He was young and energetic and frowned: "If it were me, I would seize this opportunity and beat the Utuner back to my hometown, so that they would never dare to take a step into the Great Wei forever!"

Although children act childishly and impulsively on weekdays, they are also somewhat energetic.

"What do you think I'm doing?" He Yunsheng asked, "Are you not an official now? What is the situation outside? "

"It's not much different from what you know." He Yan didn't want to hide it from him.

"Go," He Yunsheng waved his hand, "I really don't know what the officials in the court thinks."

He Yan's heart was also heavy, not to mention the hatred between her and the He family, Xu Zhiheng, and the holidays between Xiao Jue and Xu Jingfu, just the disputes over party in the court today are not an easy-to-solve conflict. As Xu Jingfu's power grows, the conflicts between the fourth prince and the prince will become more and more acute. The prince's virtue is not worthy of his position. If the prince is really inherited from the throne in the future, it is probably a disaster for the people of the Great Wei. But if the fourth prince is to... then, the future Shuojing City will inevitably cause another bloody storm.

...

The Chu Mansion tonight is also full of harmony.

Chu Linfeng was having a banquet at home. During these days, the Chu family was preparing for Chu Zhao's marriage. Since he was Xu Jingfu's daughter, there was no bad thing to do. The marriage was handled by Mrs. Chu, but Xu Bingting sent her personal maid Mo Dai, who often asked about the preparations for the Chu family's marriage. Even if Mrs. Chu wanted to make any moves and was stared at by others, she had to give up.

A marriage would consume most of the Chu family's warehouse. Xu Bingting asked to become the most glorious daughter in Shuojing in the past ten years. Xu Jingfu's pearl in his hand was only offered to everyone.

In this marriage, Mrs. Chu was naturally very hated, and Mrs. Chu's three sons were also jealous. The only one who was most sincerely happy was probably Shi Jin Bo Chu Linfeng.

After drinking, Chu Linfeng patted Chu Zhao's shoulder and smiled at the banquet: "In another month, Miss Xu will enter the door of our Chu family. I, Chu Linfeng, never expected that I would become a marriage with the Xu family. I am worthy of being my Chu Linfeng's son. It's amazing!"

To please women is probably a very proud thing in Chu Linfeng's opinion. Little did he know that this pride would be particularly dazzling when Mrs. Chu's eyes fell.

Mrs. Chu said that when she first got married, she still had some friendship, but this friendship had been exhausted when Chu Linfeng carried her concubine into the mansion one by one. She knew that she was ordinary in appearance and could not please Chu Linfeng, so she did not ask for anything else, just wanted to be the mistress of the family.

She has done a good job over the years. Chu Linfeng has no ability except for a piece of skin. If the old lady had not supported Shi Jinbo's mansion back then, I would have been defeated by Chu Linfeng. He likes beauties and pitys the beauties, but once he really touches his interests, he would hide behind the old lady and refuse to give a little more.

A hypocrite who is cold, cowardly, but still feels that he is deeply in love and righteous.

The blood of the Chu family men may be filled with affection, including her own three sons, only Chu Zhao... Mrs. Chu's eyes fell on the young man beside Chu Linfeng.

Chu Zhao's skin inherited all the advantages of Chu Linfeng and Ye Runmei, which was gentle and a bit naive and fragile. This fragility could greatly make people feel wary of him and were born to gain favor from others. Xu Bingting has been arrogant and domineering since she was a child, but she never said anything serious to Chu Zhao.

But Chu Zhao is an alien, and is definitely not as harmless as it seems on the surface.

When Chu Zhao was taken back, Mrs. Chu didn't want him to live until he grew up. It was just because the old lady was not touched for the time being. At that time, the child in front of her had also humbled her, begging for mercy like a dog, and then... quickly found Xu Jingfu as his backer, and saved his life from then on.

Mrs. Chu couldn't catch him, and before she knew it, the entire Chu family had to act according to Chu Zhao's expression. She was unwilling to let everything about her be snatched away by an affair, so she designed to use Ying Xiang to provoke the relationship between Chu Zhao and Xu Bingting. However, Mrs. Chu did not expect that Chu Zhao was so cruel that she not only gave Ying Xiang to the prince without saying a word, but also personally sent it to the prince's mansion in a carriage.

There is no gap between him and Xu Bingting.

Mrs. Chu felt heartbroken. A man who can control his feelings at will and play with people's hearts, but he also has a cold heart that even his father can't compare to. With a gentle knife in such a gentle way, the person stabbed is still reluctant to complain. How terrible?

She was thinking, Chu Zhao seemed to notice her gaze, looking over, her eyes full of smiles, as always. Mrs. Chu trembled in her heart, lowered her head, and avoided Chu Zhao's gaze.

"Zi Lan, what else should I prepare for my father?" Chu Linfeng asked Chu Zhao with a smile. He was getting older and indulged in lust. His skin as a handsome man no longer existed, but his smiling appearance showed a bit of kind father's care.

"What is he ready?" Master Chu couldn't help but sarcastically, "The family is almost empty for him. Do you want to sell the house to him and marry him?"

Chu Linfeng glanced at his eldest son unhappily, and his tone was also dissatisfied, "If you can marry the Prime Minister's daughter, I will be willing to sell my house!"

The eldest son of Chu stopped talking.

Their three sons are not as beautiful as Chu Zhao, their literary talent is not as outstanding as Chu Zhao, and they do not have a single prime minister. How can they marry the prime minister's daughter? Chu Linfeng is partial to his mind from childhood to adulthood. Now Chu Zhao is soaring and is in luck. I am afraid that Chu Linfeng will be obedient to Chu Zhao in the future.

"There is nothing to prepare for." Chu Zhao said calmly: "It's already very good."

"That's Miss Xu, the daughter of the Prime Minister's family," Chu Linfeng drank a little drunk and taught him a lesson: "Don't neglect. It's hard for him to fall in love with you... You're going to catch me!"
