There is no bright moon or stars in the Chidan River tonight. The sky is vast and silent. Dark clouds are floating in the sky, weighing heavily on the water. The entire river area has a heavy feeling of an approaching storm.
The wind was blowing wildly on the river, and there was only one ship sailing in the entire river area.
Sailors who have been sailing on the river all year round are very sensitive to the weather and quickly judged that there was going to be a storm on the Chidan River.
Xiao Jue ordered to dock, and this was already the ferry of Anyun City. Xiao Jue had originally planned to dock here, and he would have docked even if there was no storm.
He no longer seems so eager to go to Beijing!
Because of what Liusu said, Nanjin and Xiaobai are also in the capital!
Liusu stayed in the cabin all afternoon. What happened at noon has slowly subsided, and her mood has returned to calm. She has only eaten some dry food in the past few days, but she doesn't feel hungry at all. She has no appetite for dinner at all.
Normally at this time, Xiao Jue would have enslaved Su Su to cook for him, while he was lying lazily reading his book, concentrating on waiting for Liusu to serve him. Today the two of them had a big fight, who was left?
Cook for him in the mood, one in the cabin and the other on the deck.
An afternoon passed in silence!
When the boat docked at 10 o'clock, it was already dark and it was pitch black outside.
Xiao Jue got off the cabin, Liusu curled up and sat on the boat, her face was indifferent, her eyes were calm, and it was impossible to tell what she was thinking.
When she saw Xiao Jue come in, her face was slightly cold, and she put down the hand that was curled up around her body calmly, looking at him calmly. Xiao Jue smiled bitterly in his heart, as if he had knocked over the five-flavor bottle, all the flavors came up together, intertwined in a complicated way.
Does she really think he is a wild beast? He is as guarded as he is guarded against thieves. His majestic Prince Xiao will one day fall to this level. It is really ridiculous.
Two pairs of eyes stared coldly in the air, as if a bolt of lightning flashed, and no one would let the other go.
Xiao Jue glanced sharply, gave up on this meaningless contest, and said coldly: "Come out and dock!"
Liusu suddenly became happy, Xiao Jue was finally willing to dock? Wait, what does docking have to do with her? Didn't he want someone to buy medicine for him?
"No more waterways!"
Liusu frowned, finally understanding the meaning of his words, and his heart suddenly sank. Take the land route? If they take the land route, Nan Jin will have to go through a lot of troubles to trace their whereabouts.
Liusu stood up and said in a deep voice: "You were sick a few days ago and you refused to go to the shore to buy medicine. Why did you suddenly go to the shore now?"
Xiao Jue flashed a serious look and gritted his teeth, "This is my business and has nothing to do with you!"
He was still having a fever and his voice was very hoarse. In the past few days, he had deliberately been exposed to the wind to make him sick, and his internal injuries were not treated in time. He stayed on the deck without rest all afternoon. His body had long protested against him, and the high fever became a little worse.
.Now his face looks even paler.
Xiao Jue smiled bitterly to himself. In front of Liusu, he was indeed almost an idiot.
How old are you, still playing such little tricks?
It’s ironic just thinking about it!
"Xiao Jue, where do you want to take me?"
"Hmph, don't you think asking is in vain?"
Liusu's face darkened, "You can't hold me captive for the rest of your life, right? When will you let me go?"
"dream!"
He hummed heavily and walked out of the cabin. Liusu gritted her teeth and followed him silently.
The strong wind whipped up and blew towards his face. Liusu felt his body was slightly cold. He raised his eyes to look at the sky, only to find that the sky was filled with dark clouds, and there seemed to be signs of a storm.
No wonder he docked!
The two of them went ashore one after another and walked toward the city in silence.
"Where is this?"
"Anyun City!" Xiao Jue responded indifferently.
Liusu stared. It was too dark to see the scene clearly. In the past few years, she had become very familiar with the cities along the Chidan River. As soon as Xiao Jue mentioned Anyun City, Liusu's footsteps slowed down and she couldn't help but want to curse Xiao.
Absolutely, I have only walked through a city since noon.
Her eyes were filled with anger, glaring at his back fiercely, as if she wanted to burn a hole in his back.
Only then did I realize that Xiao Jue's back was not as straight as usual.
His steps were very heavy and he walked very slowly. Maybe it was because of his illness!
His internal injuries have not healed, and he has a high fever. He has been stubborn and refused to go to the shore to buy medicine these days. His temper is as bad as a stone in a latrine, and all the good bones in his body have been broken by him!
The night was thick, and the distance between them was only one meter. Liusu couldn't help but look at the man a few more times, and suddenly felt sad.
Five years ago, Xiao Jue was high-spirited, unparalleledly handsome, able to call upon the wind and rain, with a domineering look on his brows, and a strong aura that meant those who rebelled against me would perish. It belonged to Prince Xiao and was a natural intimidator.
Five years later, Xiao Jue seems to have changed a bit!
Days and nights of longing and sadness have tortured a person's heart to such an age that he has become much less showy and cold-hearted.
Looking at it in the night, it feels so sad and sad!
Guilt...tugged at her heart!
She followed him with tiny steps and suddenly said, "Xiao Jue, do you want me to help you?"
Xiao Jue clenched his hands, twitched his eyebrows, and shouted inexplicably, "No need!"
Liusu was stunned and didn't understand why he suddenly lost his temper. The atmosphere was silent again!
Xiao Jue lost his temper for no apparent reason, Liusu followed suit in a depressed manner, and no one said anything the whole way.
It was already dark when we entered the city, the citizens of the entire city were immersed in sleep, and the streets were quiet.
The strong wind blew and the fallen leaves drifted.
The apparently prosperous city felt desolate in the night.
Anyun City is famous for its Phoenix trees. It is a famous "Phoenix" city. Streets large and small are filled with tall Phoenix trees. Every time the Phoenix trees bloom, the whole city is like floating red clouds.
Especially from a high place, the entire Anyun City is surrounded by phoenix flowers. It is a huge and beautiful sea of red clouds, extremely spectacular and beautiful.
Anyun City is also home to all the beauties. Every year the emperor chooses concubines, Anyun City takes up most of the places. In the hundreds of years of history of Shengtian, there have been six queens and more than 30 concubines, which is rare. Therefore.
Anyun City not only has a phoenix tree, but there is also a legend that Anyun City specializes in phoenixes, hence the reputation of Phoenix City.
Xiao Han has a villa in Anyun City. This romantic prince who plays the game of life was a frequent visitor to Anyun City before he met Jinxiu. He spent more time in Anyun City than in the capital.
In addition, Liu Xueyao's hometown is also Anyun City, so Xiao Jue stays with Liu Xueyao for a few days every year during the phoenix flower blooming season.
Therefore, Xiao is very familiar with this place.
The flower season has just passed, the strong wind is blowing, and the remaining flowers are dancing in the eyes. This scene is so beautiful that it makes your heart tremble.
Even if it was dark, under the dim light, you could still see this hazy beauty. Ruyu had joked with her that Xiao Han was looking for a woman who was somewhat similar to Liu Xueyao in Anyun City.
It is indeed a beautiful city.
At the moment when the phoenix flowers fall, there is more romantic feeling.
Liusu stopped involuntarily, stretched out her hand, and blew away the falling phoenix petals. She raised her head and smiled brightly in the rain of flowers. Her face was stunning.
When Xiao Jue saw Liusu didn't follow him, he thought she had lost her. When he looked back, he couldn't help but feel crazy!
The strong wind was blowing by, and phoenix flowers were flying all over the sky. The woman stood under the rain of flowers, with her green hair flying and her green clothes dancing. Her expression was peaceful and her smile was charming. Under the night, she looked like an elf, pure and flawless.
Xiao Jue was fascinated by this...
Liusu thought of the fragrance of peach blossoms, and how the annual peach blossom rain was so colorful. With Nanjin accompanying her, she enjoyed the beautiful scenery of the world.
I never thought that the Phoenix Flower Rain in Phoenix City would be so beautiful.
Under the night, there is another scene.
Xiao Jue looked straight at Liusu. He remembered that in previous years when he accompanied Liu Xueyao back to Anyun City to watch the phoenix flower rain, she also liked to look up and smile cutely in the flower rain, with a sound like silver bells.
But at this moment, she couldn't remember how beautiful Xue Yao looked in the rain of flowers, and her face had become very blurry.
However, he was deeply shocked by the softness and tranquility of Liusu in front of him. It was so beautiful!
This was the most beautiful picture he had ever seen in his life.
Perhaps his gaze was too hot, so Liusu came back to her senses and half-closed her eyes, breaking the romantic and ambiguous atmosphere.
"Do you like phoenix flowers?" Xiao Jue also recovered from the shock and asked softly.
Liusu stared at him and smiled slightly, "No, I like peach blossoms!"
Xiao Jue frowned and Liusu said, "It's time to go!"
The night is calm again!
Xiao Jue took Liusu to Xiao Han's other courtyard. The servants in the other courtyard naturally recognized Xiao Jue and hurriedly welcomed them in.
"This is the princess!" Xiao Jue grabbed Liusu's waist and swore.
The manager of the other courtyard was also a person who knew how to read faces. Although he saw Liusu struggling, he saluted her without changing his expression. Prince Xiao said she was a princess, so she was a princess.
It is inconvenient for them to interfere with their master's affairs.
He led Xiao Jue to the attic where he usually lived. He had already ordered the maids to boil hot water for them to bathe. He was also smart. When he saw Xiao Jue's sick face, he knew that he had something wrong with his body. He hesitated whether to call a doctor.
Xiao Jue said coldly: "Make a bowl of antipyretic medicine!"
"yes!"
Arrived at the other courtyard in the middle of the night, causing everyone there to fall on their backs.
In the kitchen, a maid complained sleepily and angrily added firewood. Anyone who was woken up in the middle of the night to work would not be in a good temper.
"Sister Xiu, what are you doing? Keep holding the firewood. Work quickly. Be careful that the manager will hit you soon!"
There was strong hatred in Xiuhe's eyes, it turned out to be Xiao Jue...
Her hand caressed the ruined face. This face had made her suffer enough of being ridiculed. Fortunately, Xiao Han was kind enough to take her in in another courtyard, otherwise she would have died violently on the street. The originally beautiful face had an ugly line across it.
Because of her scar, she had to cover her head with a veil every time she went out to buy things, so she couldn't see anyone at all.
Sometimes she even wonders why she doesn't die right away. She hates Xiao Jue so much because it's his cruelty that keeps her alive.
I have been holding this breath in my heart for several years, and the resentment is hard to get rid of.
What shocked her the most was that the manager said that Xiao Jue came with the princess?
Fang Liusu died a long time ago, and Xiao Jue never married, so where did the princess come from?
"Fang Liusu..." It couldn't be Fang Liusu. Princess Xiao had died a long time ago. This was known to everyone. Xiuhe's eyes showed strong hatred, and the hand holding the firewood continued to increase its strength.
It was because she thought Fang Liusu was a maid in the palace and did not stop her from being whipped. In anger, Xiao Jue destroyed her beauty with a whip. She hated Xiao Jue's ruthlessness and hated Liusu's appearance even more.
Jealousy and hatred are more terrifying than pure hatred!
If it weren't for her, she would still be a beautiful lady, glorious and wealthy, instead of hiding in a corner like this and living a humble life without dignity. All of this was caused by them.
When she heard the news of Fang Liusu's death, she didn't know how happy she was. She laughed crazily, thinking that this was retribution.
She had no ability to deal with her, but God helped her.
Now I heard that Xiao Jue brought the princess here, and I was extremely surprised. She had been in the other courtyard for several years. In these years, Xiao Jue had never been here before, and suddenly he came to visit in the middle of the night. Why on earth, and who was the woman next to him?
The resentment is getting stronger and stronger. Could it be that after Fang Liusu died, Xiao Jue liked another woman?
Xiuhe narrowed his eyes evilly, suddenly threw away the firewood and ran out quickly...
"Sister Xiu..."
The two maids shouted anxiously from behind, but Xiuhe's figure had disappeared from the kitchen door.
The sky is getting darker!
Liusu stood unhappily, arguing with Xiao Jue about the room. She would not sleep in the same room or bed with him under any circumstances.
There are two cabins on the ship, which are big enough and he has someone to take care of him. She can sleep in any guest room if she doesn't have to.
This is her most basic bottom line!
Never cross it!
Although Xiao Jue had a fever, his momentum did not diminish. He pursed his lips and sneered, "Everyone here knows that you are my princess, and you sleep in a separate room with me. Is this necessary? Why, are you afraid that I will eat you?"
Liusu's face darkened, and she was very angry at his indifferent attitude, "I am very self-aware, and this kind of beauty cannot catch your eye. Since it won't do anything to me, I will sleep in any guest room the same!"
Xiao Jue's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, "You are originally Princess Xiao. If you want to draw a clear line with me, don't even think about it!"
She was so determined to protect Nan Jin that she could make him angry as much as she wanted. Xiao Jue's temper in his heart was all aroused by the loyalty on her face.
damn it!
Marry Feng Nanjin after leaving him for a month!
Why didn't she think of the word loyalty at that time?
Damn woman, damn Fang Tassel!
The fire in Xiao Jue's heart surged so fast that it rolled down like a strong wind outside.
Liusu was exhausted mentally and physically by Xiao Jue's stubbornness, but she still had this domineering tone. If she hadn't recovered well enough, she would have punched him hard, "Anyway, I won't share a room with you. If you insist on having your own way, I will go
Is it okay to sleep in the corridor?"
"Fang Liusu, stop!" Xiao Jue shouted, staggering, Liusu had already left the room, the only fools who would listen to him were fools!
Xiao Jue chased her out of the room and grabbed her hard in the yard, damn woman!
"Fang Liusu, you are awesome! What? After following me for so many days, alone and alone, do you think Feng Nanjin will believe that you and I are innocent and nothing happened? Don't be kidding, no man would do that.
Such an idea!" Xiao Jue said coldly, with a rather malicious tone.
Liusu was shocked and suddenly realized, "Xiao Jue, did you do this on purpose these days?"
Xiao Jue hummed, even if it wasn't, he didn't bother to answer!
A cold sneer appeared at the corner of Liusu's lips, "I believe Nan Jin, in this world, anyone can misunderstand my words, anyone can misunderstand me, but Nan Jin can't, he won't even ask me, as long as I say a word
, if there is innocence between us, he will believe it unconditionally. Just like I believe in Nan Jin, I believe it unconditionally. I also believe that he will not give up on me or abandon me! I am Fang Liusu, and I am also Feng Liusu.
Su Su, you can choose to be Fang Liusu or continue to be Feng Susu, Nan Jin will respect me and put my wishes first!"
"You..." Xiao Jue was furious, Liusu looked at him neither humble nor overbearing.
In the end, his face turned gloomy and he said, "You don't have to leave, I'll leave!"
After saying that, she strode out of the yard. Liusu closed her eyes and breathed a long sigh of relief. Xiao Jue's stubbornness was beyond her imagination.
However, none of them expected that a sneaky figure behind the trees outside the courtyard looked at this scene in shock and listened to all their words word for word...
