She seemed to understand what Li Xingchen meant. Lechang was not angry because of Li Xingchen's obvious distrust. After all, what Li Xingchen said was true. At that moment, she smiled and said: "General Li, why don't you soak your feet? It's not a very good day."
I’m just tired, it’s good to relax a bit.”
Of course, Li Xingchen knew that Lechang was somewhat embarrassed. In any case, this girl was very different from the royal nobles in Li Xingchen's impression. If Chen Shujian, Chen Shucheng and other royal children would definitely not say anything in this situation
Such polite words.
They were born in a wealthy family and grew up with a silver spoon in their mouths. Of course, they would take such enjoyment for granted. Even if they are destined to be just an idle royal family, there is still no way to change the fact that they are superior to others.
fact.
As for the escort generals like Li Xingchen, even after they enjoy the hot springs, they are not qualified to enjoy the same. Otherwise, wouldn't they really be in the same status and treatment as them?
Chen Shujian and Chen Shucheng have such personalities, and based on their brief contact with Chen Shubao, Li Xingchen can also judge that Chen Shubao is also like this.
The life of aristocrats has made them innately arrogant and disdainful, but the Lechang in front of them is completely opposite to this. Of course, if Lechang also has such a character, Li Xingchen will definitely not guard her all the way. He might as well
Just find a time to do it, and it would be easier to escape by yourself.
Of course Lechang didn't know what Li Xingchen was thinking, and even if he knew, what else could he do at this time besides giving him a wry smile?
While putting on his coat, Lechang picked up Li Xinchen's sword, opened the few things they carried in the open space aside, took out the two mountain fruits Li Xinchen picked in the morning, and walked to Li Xinchen
.
Taking the mountain fruit from Lechang, Li Xinchen put his feet into the hot spring. The warm spring water surged up through every inch of his skin with a hint of warmth, soaking into Li Xinchen's limbs and bones.
As Lechang said, these two days of non-stop work have indeed exhausted the two of them. Among them, Li Xingchen, who is mainly responsible for the physical labor, is actually not much easier than Lechang, despite his physical strength.
Now that I have finally found such a place that looks like a paradise, it might not be a bad thing to take the opportunity to relax.
"Come, sit here." Li Xingchen smiled and patted the place beside him, "You can just see the moon in the sky from here."
In the past few days, the entire valley has been filled with fog for most of the time. Only in the morning can there be a few times when the direction can be seen clearly. Today there is very little fog, and it is even rarer to see the moon at night.
And few.
Lechang tightened his coat. Although there were not many skin-to-skin contacts with Li Xinchen in the past two days, most of the time it was because of urgent matters. If Li Xinchen didn't hold her, the two of them would have to run away.
Under normal circumstances, the two of them still paid attention to keeping a distance, and Li Xingchen didn't really do anything out of the ordinary. Even when he was taking a bath, he really waited behind the big tree meticulously.
This must be the first time that two people have sat so close to each other, and they can even hear each other's breathing clearly.
Following the direction of Li Xingchen's finger, Lechang could clearly see the bright moon.
The bright moon rises from the opposite mountains, getting higher and higher, spreading infinite clear light among the mountains and forests, and sometimes the shadows of flying birds can be seen.
The entire valley became quiet and peaceful in this rare moonlight.
Looking at the long-lost bright moon, Lechang remained silent, but her eyes were slightly moist. She was originally a sentimental woman. She had been running for her life before and had never considered other things. Now she suddenly saw this mountain
The rising moon naturally reminds me of the Jiankang Mansion that I have been away from for who knows how long, and my father and emperor and mother and concubine who have been gone for who knows how long.
"Are you homesick?" Li Xingchen asked calmly.
Lechang hesitated for a moment, but nodded solemnly. At this moment, there was only Li Xingchen beside him. Maybe this man who had experienced more hardships and storms was not a good person to talk to, but Lechang had no one else.
choose.
Li Xingchen smiled slightly: "I am also homesick."
I miss home and my sister Lian'er. I wonder if that girl will cry to death? I also miss Xiao Xiang, the girl who became my concubine for no apparent reason. Will she be sad for the more elusive future?
Worried?
Of course, what I was thinking more about was another world that I had left for several months. Except when I was in college, I had never been away from my parents at home for such a long time.
Lechang slowly hugged his knees and curled up. He wondered if his father would feel sad if the news of his disappearance reached his ears.
Home is usually a word that is on our lips and never taken to heart, but when we are in a foreign land and wandering uncertainly, we realize that this word should be hidden deep in our hearts and engraved on our bones.
"The moon crescents over Jiuzhou, some families are happy and some are sad," Li Xingchen looked at the bright moon on the treetops and murmured, "A few couples are sharing tents, and a few are wandering outside?"
Lechang looked at Li Xinchen in surprise. This was the first time in so many days that she had heard Li Xinchen write a poem. No matter how it sounded, this poem sounded more like a folk song or limerick that could not wait for the elegant hall. But it happened to be these four lines.
Poetry is like a sharp sword, piercing directly into the deepest part of the soul.
There are no complicated text carvings, and the sadness of wandering under the bright moon is reflected in the lines.
The bright moon rose higher and higher, and a clear ray of light shone on the hot springs and on the open space where the two of them were.
Several couples were sharing tents, and a few were wandering outside... Looking at Li Xingchen who was very close at hand, Lechang's vision was already a little blurry, at least he couldn't be considered wandering alone.
Li Xinchen felt his shoulders sink slightly. Lechang had already leaned over and rested his head on his shoulder. Two lines of crystal tears flowed down the girl's smooth cheeks. Li Xinchen sighed deeply.
This time he didn't dodge any more and stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around Lechang's shoulders:
"We can go home soon."
Lechang did not resist, but instead shrank into Li Xingchen's arms to avoid Hu Xiao's cold mountain wind. Hearing Li Xingchen's voice, she raised her head and met the man's eyes, which were hot and firm. Lechang couldn't help but feel
He smiled sweetly: "I am convinced of this."

"Keep your voices down, please." Xiao Shilian lowered his voice, "If those damn bastards in front of us know our whereabouts, I will have to chop you up."
Li Ping, Chen Zhishen and others all nodded cautiously, their eyes never leaving the dozen black figures walking through the forest in front of them.
They had been searching aimlessly for two days in the vast mountains and forests. Just when they were about to give up, they happened to encounter these black-clothed killers sneaking in the mountains and forests, and Xiao Shilian and others also heard them clearly.
During the conversation, these guys seemed to have lost several companions. Now they have discovered clues and are searching forward.
