"I heard that your wedding is approaching."

After saying this, I didn't see any reaction from him, but in such a quiet night, I intuitively felt that something was broken.

His eyes flickered in the night.

After a long silence, I heard his hoarse voice say: "Yes."

"...Congratulations."

"Thank you."

After saying this, both of them were silent for a while, but he sighed softly and said: "It's just that I don't know if I can really be happy...if this battle can be won."
p>

"I have confidence in you."

He looked at me slightly moved, and I said firmly: "I believe you won't lose."

Under the dim light, he seemed to laugh, but it was only fleeting. After another period of silence, I heard him speak with some difficulty: "That Liu Qinghan, is it the same year when you left - you were in Yangzhou?"

The person you married."

"Do you know him?"

"Well, before Mu Hua lost his memory, he once said something about you and him. I know you got married in the fishing village, and he was also very good to you. It's just——"

He didn’t say the rest, and I couldn’t bear to hear it anymore.

Yes, he and I were very happy back then.

I am even so happy that many times I can’t believe that after working hard for half my life and experiencing so many bad things, I no longer have any expectations for life, but I can still get such a person and such a life.<

/p>

But——

In the end, everything was ruined.

"Later he became an official, and I got a lot of news about him."

Pei Yuanfeng's voice became deeper and deeper. When he said this, he paused for a moment, as if he was looking at my expression, and he didn't know what he saw. After a while, he said softly: "You guys are now-"<

/p>

I raised my head and looked at him, and smiled for some reason: "He will marry me, and I am already married."

"..."

"It's that simple."

"..." He was silent, looked at me for a while, and said, "Then marrying your second brother, is this what you want?"

"Why do you ask?"

"I want to know."

Looking at his persistent and bright eyes under the dim light, I smiled faintly: "What does it matter whether you want something or not?"

"It's very important to me!"

He suddenly increased his tone, which made me feel frightened. The next moment, he had walked in front of me. He was dressed in military uniform, and his aura that was more intimidating than before rushed towards me, making people feel an almost suffocating pressure.

Feeling, I suddenly opened my eyes wide and looked at his tightly frowned brows. Although there was no expression of pain on his face, his eyes seemed to be in severe pain somewhere on his body.

Even his voice when he spoke seemed to be suppressing some pain: "Qingying, I'm getting married."

"..."

"The last thing I want to see is that I have married someone else and you are not happy yet."

The moment I heard these words, a wave of bitterness surged up from my heart, and immediately filled my eyes, almost dripping.

I remembered what he once said to me. He wanted me to be happy, but he never forced me to do anything. But facing such a person who was dedicated to me, I never gave him any response or response.

I hope that from beginning to end, I will watch him slowly walk out of my world.

He is not the person I love, but he is the person I feel sorry for.

Thinking of this, I almost choked, but I bit my lower lip to prevent myself from crying. Instead, I looked at him with a smile and said, "Don't worry, it won't happen."

"..."

"I will take good care of myself."

"..."

"Don't worry about me anymore."

He slowly stretched out his two hands and held my shoulders heavily, as if all the great strength was on my shoulders at this moment. He looked into my eyes and said solemnly: "You promised

!"

"Yes, I promise you."

At this moment, everything is silent.

Maybe it was because I could only hear my heartbeat and his. A cold wind with ice and snow blew from the top of the mountain in the distance. It made people tremble and slowly extinguished the two clusters of flames in his eyes.

After an unknown amount of time, he squeezed my shoulder hard again and finally let me go.

I smiled at him.

He also smiled.

In fact, I still thank God.

No matter what he and I have gone through, no matter what hurts we have suffered, no matter how fickle the world is, in the end, I live up to him, and he lives up to me, and we still maintain the original gentleness and goodwill towards each other.

Maybe this is the best ending for me and him.

The atmosphere between him and I relaxed, and even the swaying firelight around me became softer. The two of us felt more relaxed and simply talked while walking along the stream. The stream was gurgling with gentle ripples, and I

Carefully lifting up the corners of her skirt to prevent it from getting wet, she asked, "You came to me for anything else?"

He nodded and said, "Are you sure about persuading Tu Shuhan to send troops?"

I thought for a while: "Half and half. I can only do my best."

"If we can really form a three-way pincer attack, we have a good chance of winning. I think Tu Shuhan should also take this into consideration."

"I will analyze the pros and cons for him, don't worry."

"If you go to find him, be sure not to let the second brother go. At least - the second brother must not be present during the negotiation."

I was stunned: "Why?"

Pei Yuanfeng said: "Although I arrived in Xichuan, at least my relationship with the imperial court has not turned bad. But the second brother is different. He fought with the imperial soldiers in Jiangnan, and his identity is a traitor. Border guards like Tu Shuhan have the power to

Chang Bing is in a very sensitive situation, and having anything to do with him is a capital offense. Even if he wants to send troops, considering this, he will refuse. Therefore, the second brother must not show up."

After listening to his words, I nodded with enlightenment.

After all, he was so thoughtful that I forgot about this relationship and hurriedly said: "I understand."

Pei Yuanfeng paused again and then said: "Is the second brother going to Luosh?"

"Well. After all, he has a closer relationship with the people in Shengjing. If he speaks, things will be easier to handle."

"Are you sure?"

"Yuan Xiu never said anything about this, he only promised to go."

"Actually, as long as one of Luo Shi and Tu Shuhan sends troops, that's enough for me. I'm worried that if we look for both of them at the same time, things will become complicated."

"Why do you say that?"

"Maybe they will just wait and see what happens."

"..."

"Especially for Luosh, he doesn't move, so that's okay."

Pei Yuanfeng's worry is not unreasonable. Even Yan Qingchen knows that Luo Shi is a war madman. He has been dormant for these years. I also understand the reason. But once such a person starts fighting, it will be earth-shattering. The blood-stained Dongzhou was

Pei Yuanxiu's sword test, but Lose also played an indispensable role in it.

This time I asked him to send troops. What I feared most was losing control.

So, I said: "I will accompany Yuan Xiu there."

"That's fine, I'll be relieved if you go."

Pei Yuanfeng said: "But you have to worry about it when talking to Luo Shi."

"Hmm."

"It's best not to let him send troops, but let the second brother talk to him and ask him to borrow troops. Xichuan will definitely not be a problem in terms of food and grass. However, borrowing troops cannot be too many, 50,000 is best, and it cannot exceed 150,000."<

/p>

I looked into his eyes, nodded and whispered: "I understand."

Luo Shi's dispatch of troops will be a boost to Nian Bao Yuze's war, but after defeating the Dongcha Hebu, everything will be different.

Pei Yuanfeng's borrowing of 50,000 troops is within his control. With his current strength, if Luo Shi sends more than 150,000 troops, Yuanfeng will lose the initiative. Borrowing troops may turn into a fire hazard.

I said: "I will find a way."

Pei Yuanfeng glanced at me, as if he was about to speak but hesitated.

"What's wrong?"

Sensing his strange silence, I turned my head to take a look at him, only to see his eyebrows furrowed into a knot. Just as I was about to ask, I heard him say: "If you go, you'd better persuade me."

Advise that person."

"...What?"

"Huang Tianba."

"..."

"It's best not to let Huang Tianba come over."

"...!"

My heart sank severely.

This name, whether I think of it or talk about it, is almost like a wound in my heart. When Pei Yuanfeng mentioned it, it was more like tearing open the wound bloody, and the pain made me almost suffocate for a while.

After a long while, I said hoarsely: "Ah..."

"I know he's still alive."

"..."

"You never mentioned him again, but I can guess that he fell in Shengjing for some reasons."

"..."

"But, no matter what, many people and things have changed."

He turned around and looked at me, and said solemnly: "Tell him not to appear in front of Mu Hua again. This is good for him, for Mu Hua, and for all of us."

Looking into his eyes, I was speechless. For a moment, I didn’t even know what the numb feeling in my heart was.

But whose fault is it?

After choking for a long time, I finally said: "I understand."

By this time, the sky had completely darkened, leaving only the sound of the burning bonfire in the military camp and the footsteps of the patrol team.

He and I looked at each other in this night, and we were quiet.

Originally, I had nothing to say, but I didn't look back, and I didn't even have the intention of leaving. Pei Yuanfeng was such a shrewd person, and he seemed to feel something, and looked at me quietly.

After a while, I slowly said: "You have told me everything about everything, but there is one thing you haven't told me."

"..."

"What is Nishikawa's plan now?"

"..."
