The story ends here. From then on, Rui Xueji and Xia Yan became two independent names in the history books, and there was no intersection between them.
After Xia Yan told this story, he did not immerse himself in that beautiful but regrettable memory. Instead, he turned to me and asked: "Have you remembered all of this?"
I nodded quickly: "I remember!"
Xia Yan didn't believe it: "Where did I meet Rui Xueji?"
"In the Luchuan Plain!"
"Wrong, it's in the Gobi, twenty miles away from the Luchuan Plain!" Xia Yan slapped me hard on the head. It hurt so much that I held my head and rubbed it for a long time, and the blow was too hard.
"What was the first thing I said to her?"
"I will teach you your clever tricks!" I replied hurriedly.
"Well, not bad. What else is there?"
"The first time you and Rui Xueji kissed was on June 23rd seven years ago. It was June 25th when you let her go. When she came to see you, it was a night of heavy rain. She wore a
Ye Xingyi, also, you have lived in the small courtyard in Luchuan Plain for a month and 18 days. Her specialty is mixed cucumbers...and...the first time you had sex was on July 17th.
Because you are healed..."
As I recited it, I became scornful.
It's just such a trivial matter, and I don't feel at ease until I know it by heart.
After reciting it, Xia Yan showed a satisfied smile: "Not bad, I remembered it in detail!"
I was simply speechless for him.
"Ask you a question!"
Xia Yan immediately cast a warning look: "Think carefully before asking!"
I nodded swornly and said: "Don't worry, it's not about Yan Xiaoqing, it's about you!"
"Yeah!" Xia Yan nodded and motioned for me to continue.
I said: "You and Ruixue Ji are so in love, why are you wary of her like an enemy now? Do you think she will betray you?"
"People's hearts are separated from each other. It's been so long, so we must not be careless! Besides, Rui Xueji's visit this time is not just to celebrate my birthday!"
"Huh?" I was surprised.
Xia Yan sneered and said: "The country of Rui suffered a drought in the first half of the year, and many places had no harvest. The relationship between the country of Rui and the country of Qi is tense today. She is likely to form an alliance this time!"
Suddenly I remembered that my father once said that a person must not be too sober, it is better to be a little confused. When he said this, it was the second day after he was canonized as An Guogong by the emperor. Everyone knew that if A
Dad is not lame, so this title will probably only belong to him after he dies.
But Xia Yan is different from my father. My father is willing to pretend to be confused while trying to understand, but Xia Yan has to make one thing clear. Often the deepest loneliness in the soul always comes with sobriety.
Xia Yan is so lonely because he lives so clearly.
"Then...should I help you pick her up?" I asked uncertainly.
Xia Yan looked at me and suddenly laughed: "Why are you always thinking about picking up women when you have nothing to do?"
"I'm doing this for you. Think about it, if I get her and we switch back, you can still have a relationship with her. Wouldn't that be great?"
"No!" Xia Yan refused me decisively without even a hint of wavering.
"Why?"
"The moment she left me, the fate between us was broken. The person who comes to Xia Kingdom now is not Rui Xueji, but the Queen of Rui Kingdom. She and I only have interests and nothing else!"
It turns out that what Xia Yan burned that night was his past with Rui Xueji!
