After descending the mountain, it didn't take long to reach the boundary of Qingcheng.
Along the way, many people stared at Nalan Fengjin, who changed his appearance. Unexpectedly, Du Yuze was changed by Nalan Fengjin.
Nalan Fengjin asked Du Yuze: "Why are you disguised?"
Du Yuze asked Nalan Fengjin: "Why do you always disguise yourself?"
Nalan Fengjin said: "This matter is a long story."
Du Yuze smiled and said: "Anyway, I have nothing to do."
Nalan Fengjin said: "When I was a child, a fortune teller came to my house and accidentally saw me. He said that I was a disaster, especially with this face. My father was very worried. He said that beauties have been unlucky since ancient times and asked him how to solve it.
, he mentioned the art of disguise. My father actually found someone to teach me the art of disguise, that is, my master. I am the eldest daughter, no one in the family cares about me, and my master doesn’t care much about me, so he taught me
I'll just disguise myself and leave."
Nalan Fengjin said as he walked: "I still remember when I was a child, I felt that the art of disguise was troublesome and I was not willing to learn it. My master scared me, saying that I was a disaster and that I would bring disaster to myself and others. I was a child at that time.
I was very frightened after hearing this, so I learned the art of disguise from him seriously, and often competed with him in disguise and deceiving each other. After he left, I already understood what a troublesome face is, and a troublesome face is what many women dream of.
Yes, ha, but I’ve been doing disguises for many years and I’m used to it. Sometimes when I don’t disguise myself, it seems like I’m missing something and it’s very uncomfortable, so I don’t have to do the troublesome thing.”
Du Yuze didn't expect to hear such remarks. She spoke easily and her down-to-earth personality always made people think that she lived a carefree and happy life. However, how could Du Yuze not hear the ups and downs in her life?
She began to learn art from her master when she was very young. Her master didn't seem to be very close to her. He taught her the art of disguise and then left. She has been wearing a mask since she was a child, just because her face gave her
It brought a lot of trouble. This must be her past. Thinking of this, he took Nalan Fengjin's hand and said, "Let's go buy wine."
"Yeah." Nalan Fengjin nodded with a smile.
The streets of Qingcheng are naturally not as prosperous as those of Tiandu City, but they are not very depressed either. Standing on the street where people come and go, Du Yuze holds Nalan Fengjin’s hand and feels as if he is in another world, and then listens to Nalan Fengjin’s words
: "I haven't lived a normal life for a few days. Let's go buy some clothes first, and then we'll have a big meal."
Du Yuze smiled and said, "Okay." His eyes naturally showed tenderness when he looked at her.
Nalan Fengjin looked back with a smile, with sweetness and trust written all over his face.
After leaving the mountain, it seemed that it was time to part ways. Nalan Fengjin and Du Yuze both knew it, but no one was willing to take the initiative to mention it.
When he stayed at the inn, even though he was disguised, he still couldn't hide Du Yuze's innate nobility. With just one look, the waiter nodded and bowed to him.
At midnight, the two of them held several jars of wine and drank in the inn. There were very few people in the inn, and they were the only ones in the entire courtyard.
I haven't had a good drink in the mountains for many days. I don't know whether it was because of his mood or because of the good wine. Du Yuze drank very hard today. After drinking a few jars of wine with Nalan Fengjin, he seemed to be a different person. Slowly
He talked about his own past. It was something Du Yuze had never told to another person in his life, and it was also a story about Du Yuze that Nalan Fengjin had never dreamed of.
The moonlight in Qingcheng shone on Du Yuze, making him look particularly cold and even a little pitiful.
Du Yuze said lightly: "My mother is very beautiful. When I was very young, she told my sister and me that we are different from other people and that we are born superior. In the house, the children of other aunts are all inferior.
Humble.”
I don’t know if it was because he thought of his mother, but Du Yuze’s face was filled with warmth: “My mother was very strict with me and my sister, especially my sister. My sister has learned a lot since she was a child, even more than me. We rarely
When I have time to play, in addition to practicing martial arts, I also study. My mother often said that she has high hopes for my sister and me. The better we are, the more proud she will be. When I was young, I didn’t understand what was different between me and others.
But it does feel good to be superior. I also like to see my mother proud of me, so I work hard and win no matter what I do."
At this point, his eyes suddenly dimmed, he took a sip of wine, and continued: "But when I was twelve years old, my mother passed away. After all, she was not able to see me perform the crowning ceremony and my mother's coffin.
Before she was buried, Qi Yiniang relied on my father's favor and wanted to become the royal wife and take my mother's place in the house. After I found out, I rushed into her room with a sword and dragged her hair all the way to my mother.
She was afraid of me and kept kowtowing in the mourning hall. The floor was covered with blood. When my father came in and saw this scene, he was so angry that he slapped me with a palm. I was so angry that I couldn't avoid it.
I wanted to hide, but at this moment my sister, who had just returned from the palace to pay homage to my mother, rushed over and took the slap for me. When she flew out, she hit a corner of my mother's coffin, leaving the root of her illness."
Hearing this, Nalan Fengjin felt pain in his heart, but he didn't know how to comfort Du Yuze.
He continued: "That night, I knelt in front of my mother's mourning hall and washed away the blood stains on the ground with my own hands, bit by bit. How could that bitch's blood stain my mother's mourning hall!"
Nalan Fengjin looked at Du Yuze and found that he had a sarcastic sneer at the corner of his mouth, as if he was telling someone else's story. There was no pain at all. He was so cold and desolate. That was the Du Yuze that Nalan Fengjin had never seen before.
Just listen to him continue: "When my sister was seriously injured and unconscious, she still missed me and repeatedly asked me to remember my mother's words before she was alive. I swore in front of my sister's bed that I would never let her down!"
When Nalan Fengjin heard this, he was shocked. It turned out that Du family still had such a past.
Du Yuze took another sip of wine, smiled coldly, and said, "Ajin, what kind of person am I in your heart?"
After Nalan Fengjin heard this, he woke up from his stupor and said with a smile: "Ze is so affectionate and sincere, he is both chivalrous and noble."
Hearing this, a hint of cruelty flashed in Du Yuze's eyes, and he said: "When I was eight years old, my third aunt's son competed with me for a wooden horse to play with, and I beat him into a cripple with a stick. Third aunt went to my father and cried.
, but I called her mean, and she hit the wall in shame and angrily and died on the spot." A slight smile appeared on his lips, extremely cold: "On my tenth birthday, my mother made a very beautiful brocade robe for me.
In the garden, my cousin hit me with a plate of greasy pastries and soiled my clothes. I knocked her out with a palm and she hit a stone and died on the spot. I was just fourteen years old.
After the coming-of-age ceremony, I just glanced at a maid in the house a few times. She took off her clothes and climbed into my bed that night, but I kicked her out of the bed and stabbed her in the chest with a sword."
Having said this, he chuckled softly, and the moonlight shone on him like water, making him feel cold for an instant.
"Am I still the Du Yuze in your heart?" He asked softly, his face completely hidden in the darkness, blurry.
The moonlight was faint, and the silence was like poisonous needles piercing Du Yuze's heart one by one. The light in his eyes gradually disappeared with this silence. But at this moment, he only heard a gentle smile, and the laughter was like pearls falling on a plate.
, a soft and crisp sound, which made his mind wander. Wherever he looked, he saw the moonlight. She shook her head, shook her head and nodded, as if she was thinking about something seriously. After a while, she said: "I just
I know that Du Yuze is very good to me and would even risk his life for me!"
