The night was as dark as water, and the huge Qianxi River finally returned to calm after a whole day of noise. The wanton sounds of songbirds under the full moon came from the deep forest, shaking a little candle in the tent.
Li Ran and Ji Le sat side by side on the stone steps outside the camp, looking up at the moon in the mountains in the distance. The moonlight, like mercury pouring down the ground, shed all the tenderness. The occasionally floating crimson clouds made these tenderness extremely
Warmth, very much like Li Ran's arms at this moment, Ji Le lay quietly in it, feeling the hot beating of Li Ran's heart.
It had been a long time since the two of them had admired the moon together like this.
Since they met in Qufu, fell in love in Zhengyi, and then met in Chu State, the two have jointly performed a story that many people have never experienced. After countless hardships and loneliness, the two seemed to have returned to Qufu again.
That night at the house, we sat quietly on the steps and admired the everlasting full moon.
Perhaps, there is nothing more warm and enjoyable than this in the world.
Only then did Li Ran discover that the verses in the Book of Songs that described the joy of men and women, and the passages that were both sung and weeping, admirable and praiseworthy, seemed to be true.
At least in this era, that is indeed the case.
However, after many years, this kind of story gradually evolved into an unattainable fantasy.
After all, the busy world has no room for single-minded infatuation.
Only in this slow-moving era can sincerity and true love be truly realized.
"Husband, do you still remember the night we met?"
Ji Le just snuggled into Li Ran's chest, and unknowingly recalled the night of that year.
Her eyes were still clear, like a handful of clear springs under the moonlight, showing a little bit of crystal.
"Remember, of course I remember."
The corners of Li Ran's mouth couldn't help but curl up, and he continued to reply with a smile:
"My husband was still wondering at the time, how could a girl stay up so late? I later found out that you are also a night owl."
"Night owl? What is that?"
Ji Le obviously didn't understand the term "night owl", so he immediately raised his head and asked.
"Oh, the so-called 'night owl' refers to a person who often stays awake at night."
"My husband is accustomed to thinking in quiet nights, so he often stays up late at night. However, I never thought that a girl like you also has such a habit."
"Of course, the first thing Leer was attracted to as her husband was not just because of this same hobby."
Li Ran lowered his head and looked into her eyes. At this moment, a pair of crystal lights shone in his eye frames.
"Oh? What else is there?"
Ji Le couldn't help but asked curiously.
"I can't tell, maybe it's just a feeling."
"Feeling? What does it feel like?"
Ji Le couldn't help but become even more curious.
Women of her era, as long as they were from slightly wealthy families, mostly focused on "marrying with a clear matchmaker". Therefore, they had little experience in falling in love. Even if it was like Jiyue, it could happen by chance.
When you meet a "self-pleaser", the one who can achieve success in the end is just a phoenix.
At this time, Li Ran continued to explain to her:
"It is a kind of familiarity that is yet strange. It is clearly close at hand, but yet it is out of reach. It cannot be guessed and cannot be grasped. Everything becomes empty and everything changes because of this feeling.
Be pure.”
Yes, the so-called "love at first sight" is this feeling.
"But... But Le'er doesn't feel this way?... Le'er just thinks that what your husband said at the township school assembly was very lofty and inspiring. So, I just feel that you are different from others.
It’s different, so…”
Ji Le is obviously not a girl who is good at words. When she recalled her feelings at that time, she looked hesitant, just like the girl back then who only knew how to lower her head and blush but didn't know how to express it.
And when Li Ran suddenly appeared in her life, with his unique style and extraordinary remarks, one can imagine her curiosity at that time.
That's why she couldn't sleep at night, trying to get to know Li Ran, and the two of them had their first moonlit chat.
And this may be another explanation for "love at first sight".
Obviously, Li Ran's weird and strong personal style at that time was like a shot in the arm, which caused Ji Le to have a strong curiosity. And she was driven by this curiosity, and her every move would be reflected in the world.
Consciously or unconsciously, try every means to get closer to it.
Such is the case with ritual music.
"Alas, looking back on all these years, I haven't been able to see the bright moonlight with you again like I did then."
"I feel so ashamed for my husband..."
Li Ran was silent for a long time, and then he couldn't help but sigh.
"Hmph! It's good that your husband still remembers it, but Le'er has been waiting for a long time, and your husband just thought of it now?"
Ji Le muttered, with a "hum" expression on his face.
"Ah... I'm really sorry, madam. I will definitely change my ways in the future!"
"Humph, Le'er doesn't really believe what your husband says. Unless your husband goes back to Zhengyi with Le'er immediately."
Ji Le took advantage of the victory to pursue him and immediately proposed returning to Zheng Yi.
There was a look of expectation in her eyes.
But this time, her expectations were not fulfilled. Li Ran looked at her with a very firm look and said:
"When this matter is over, my husband will definitely return to Zhengyi with his wife, and we will not stop for a moment!"
After all, Zhu Fangcheng's swearing-in has not yet ended. If he leaves like this, I am afraid that the King of Chu will not agree easily.
Therefore, as long as he has not obtained the permission of the King of Chu, it is impossible for him to leave the Chu Kingdom.
"good!"
"Then let's hook up!"
Ji Le immediately stretched out his finger, and his measured look immediately made Li Ran laugh.
"Pull the hook, just pull the hook!"
"Come!"
Li Ran also smiled and stretched out his finger. The two hooked up in Chu Kingdom for the second time and made an agreement.
When the work was over, Ji Le was extremely excited and danced under the moonlight. Sometimes the mountain breeze blew by, and Ji Le under the stars and moon was like a wind-moving elf, exquisite and noble.
Li Ran was stunned for a moment and was silent for a long time.
Until today's events suddenly flashed through his mind, and he was suddenly shocked, his face full of guilt and bitterness.
"Husband, what's wrong with you?"
Ji Le turned his head and saw that Li Ran looked wrong, so he asked hurriedly.
But Li Ran only shook his head and said nothing.
He has rarely broken his word in his life, and since he traveled through time, there has never been a precedent for him breaking his promise. But this time, he may really break his promise.
Sure enough, it is very difficult to maintain one's credibility in front of an arrogant and unpredictable king.
Just like tonight, although he agreed to the festival, who knows whether his promise can be fulfilled? And what kind of twists and turns will there be in the process?
He didn't dare to continue thinking about it, and he didn't dare to face Ji Le. He always felt that he had betrayed everyone's trust.
"Husband, are you still thinking about Qing Feng?"
Ji Le could see Li Ran's thoughts at a glance, and his expression suddenly turned dull.
Li Ran looked at her, made a wry smile and said:
"Actually... my husband never thought that he would become a person who breaks his word?"
