"Xi Zhi Yuan Han".
Hearing this word, Yu Wenling's brows knitted together unconsciously. After looking at the people in front of me, I felt that they seemed to be connected, but I felt like an outsider.
Yu Wenling shook his head and reminded himself not to be too sensitive: the woman named "Xi" passed away eight years ago. He had also felt sad for her, but now he can't remember her clearly. The sound and appearance are different. In the past eight years, the woman who has been by Yang Qingyun's side is Yu Wenling. Although he always deliberately kept a distance from himself, he never thought of giving up. Even if she was just hiding secretly and watching him, watching the wind blowing through his hair, she would imitate the shape of the wind with her hands, wipe his brow, and smooth the sadness in his eyes. Yu Wenling believes that with his identity and persistence, God will not let him down.
The cheerful prairie songs sounded and the dancers took the stage again. Yu Wenling didn't want to be isolated like this, so he quickly stood up and cheered loudly: "Let's dance together!"
Someone could not have made a better start. Shengze and Yunchuan could not sit still for a long time. They pulled Yun Xi and rushed to the center of the stage. Yu Wenling looked at Yang Qingyuan and Yu Wenhan and said softly: "Let's go together too."
"You go ahead, I'll just watch." Yu Wenhan explained.
"Go ahead." Yang Qingyuan also waved.
"Then I'll stay with you here." Yu Wenling sat down in despair.
"Ling'er, go ahead and dance. Don't you like dancing? Qingyun and I have never done this." Yu Wenhan said with concern.
"If you and brother Qingyuan don't go, I won't go either." After Yu Wenling finished speaking, Yang Qingyuan glanced at her and drank alone. Even though it was just an accidental glance, Yu Wenling was already elated.
The three people in Yunchuan followed the dancers and danced more and more cheerfully, sometimes spinning and sometimes high-fiving. The whole night sky was filled with cheerful laughter. When Yu Wenhan and Yang Qingyu were in the palace, they could often hear music and laughter inside the palace walls, but to them it was like another time and space, distant and misty. But the atmosphere tonight has a strong gravity that makes people throb.
Yun Chuan jumped to Yun Xi and whispered: "Go and pull them, will they jump?"
Yun Xi whispered: "Not sure, they haven't liked these since they were young."
Yun Chuan blinked: "Look at me." Then he said a few words to the dancers next to him, and the dancers understood the situation and rushed towards the three people sitting there, twisting their bodies around them to the music. Yu Wenling watched the gorgeously dressed and pretty dancers spinning around Yang Qingyuan, and said anxiously: "He can't dance, don't mess with him." But the dancers didn't care about this. After the warm invitation, Yu Wenhan and the other three were forcefully pulled to the dance floor.
Yu Wenhan and Yang Qingyuan stood on the dance floor and were at a loss. Yu Wenling quickly protected Yang Qingyuan, fearing that any dancers would approach. Shengze smiled and said: "Isn't this simpler than "Zhihuzheye"?"
Yun Chuan pulled Yun Xi over and let Yu Wenhan hold Yun Xi's hand. He held Yu Wenhan with one hand and Yang Qingyun with the other. Upon seeing this, Yu Wenling immediately took Yang Qingyun's other hand. Led by Shengze, the dancers all held hands, and everyone formed a large circle, spinning and cheering to the music.
The dance on the grassland has this kind of charm. The previous embarrassment was wiped away. Yu Wenling had a great time, and the hand holding Yang Qingyu was sweating with excitement. Yang Qingyun's face was no longer so stiff, and his expression was much more relaxed. A long-lost smile appeared on Yu Wenhan's face. Yun Chuan smiled innocently and muttered to Yang Qingyuan: "You are just relaxing your face, but it can't be considered a smile." Yang Qingyuan glanced at Yunchuan's eyes, and it seemed like two stars were shining towards him, and a beam of light passed through his heart.
It would be great if dance music never ended.
The six people returned to their seats without finishing. Yu Wenling asked: "It's really interesting here. What other shows are coming next?"
"What do you want to see, wrestling or riding and shooting?" Shengze asked.
"How about we go see the moonflowers. At this hour, the moonflowers on the mountain behind you should be blooming soon." Yunchuan suggested.
"I forgot to tell you, you don't have to search all over the mountain to see moonflowers in the future. This spring, I planted moonlight flowers of various colors on Xuelong Mountain. Think about it, they will bloom in a few days!" Sheng Ze imagined Yun Chuan looking at a sea of colorful flowers, with a flower-like smile blooming on his face.
"Are you going to change your name to Prince Moonlight?" Yun Chuan joked.
Yun Xi suddenly realized, remembering that Yun Chuan said that he liked the moonlight flowers on the grassland the most, blooming alone in the dark. There are so many things that Yun Chuan likes. Maybe it was an unintentional remark, but he remembered it in his heart.
"Then you two will be called Moonlight Brothers!" Yun Xi also joked.
Yun Chuan was confused and had obviously forgotten his sentence of "Moonlight Flower is my favorite". "Brother Moonlight, please take us to see the moonlight flowers. What kind of flowers are they?" Yu Wenling came over, her big eyes showing the girl's original clarity, and her thin face was filled with the luster of youth.
"I have long heard that the moonflower on the grassland blooms to greet the moon. Its fragrance is as refreshing as morning dew, and its color is as elegant as celadon. I am really lucky to see it today." Yu Wenhan said.
Shengze stood up and waved his hand, "Let's go, let you see the moonlight flowers that I planted with my own hands. Now that the moonlight is just right, the guards don't have to follow us. We can ride horses and go there by ourselves."
Xuelong Mountain is more than twenty miles away from here. Five years ago, Xiayi and Tusang formed an alliance. The two sides used Xuelong Mountain as their boundary and no troops were stationed nearby. This mountain is shaped like a dragon's disk, with its top covered with snow. It is regarded as the God Mountain by the prairie people. When nobles of the tribe get married, the bride needs to climb to the top of the mountain the day before the wedding to receive the baptism and blessing from the gods before the marriage can be held.
Six people ride horses and move forward under the moonlight. Their backs are swaying, the landscapes are painted with vivid colors, the characters are rich and colorful, and the artistic conception is lifelike.
"Did you hear the sound of horse hooves behind you?" Yun Chuan rode up to Shengze and asked.
"It seems there is. It must be those guards who are following me secretly." Shengze frowned and was annoyed.
"Didn't you always walk alone in the past? Why are you restricted from visiting Snow Dragon Mountain now? Is it possible that your brother still cares about Mingcheng?" Yun Chuan asked doubtfully.
"Hmph, don't mention this again!" Shengze said angrily.
Not long after, the six people arrived at the foot of Snow Dragon Mountain. Shengze settled the horses and led them slowly to a birch forest on the southwest side of the foot of the mountain, and walked up the mountain from a path.
"How come I didn't know about this trail before?" Yun Chuan has been playing under Xuelong Mountain since he was a child and is very familiar with this place.
"I just planted it at the beginning of this year. I can't plant moonlight flowers at the foot of the mountain. Look up. The small pavilion in front is my flower field." Shengze pointed to the mountainside half a mile away and stretched out his hand. Out of the corner of the pavilion, a welcoming pine tree with lush branches and leaves stretched over the pavilion.
When he reached the mountainside, Yunchuan was surprised. He remembered the moonlight flowers he had seen before, which were just dots and inconspicuous among the weeds. Now this moonlight flower field covers half an acre, backed by a steep rock wall and surrounded by neat green grass in a semicircle.
At this time, the moonlight flower in the flower field has grown green buds, and the tips of the buds faintly reveal pink, purple, blue, and white petals, each of which is waiting to bloom and swaying. On the right side of the flower field, a stone tablet was erected outside the grass fence, with the four characters "Shengze Flower Field" engraved on it.
Not only that, next to this half-acre flower field, a hexagonal glazed pavilion was built on the left side, a pine tree was planted, and a swing was even arranged. At this time, the moonlight flower vines have climbed along the support poles on both sides of the swing. You can enjoy the flowers up close, look up at the moon, overlook the water, and admire the mountains. What a leisurely and elegant flower field scenery.
"My little prince, my little prince, you are so leisurely and elegant. You can transform this cold Snow Dragon Mountain into something so interesting. The name 'Shengze Flower Field' is so appropriate that you can see the beauty of the moon and the beauty of the moon." Yun Chuan imagined the grand scene of blooming to greet the moon, and his heart was full of longing.
"With beautiful face and beautiful face, I still see the real person? Are you praising me or hurting me?" Shengze counterattacked with a smile.
"The young prince is really attentive. The outer grass fence is so neatly trimmed. The yellow powder outside the grass fence, if I guessed correctly, must be the realgar powder sprinkled to prevent wild birds from getting close." Yun Xi sighed. The unruly Shengze has such a delicate mind.
"He must have ordered someone else to do it. There are soft thorns on the stem of the moonlight flower. Our young prince's hands are so white and tender. What if it gets pricked?" Yun Chuan said without thinking. Based on her understanding of Shengze, Shengze's His handsome skin is very important.
"That's for sure. I don't need to do this kind of work myself!" Shengze responded immediately, rubbing his fingers unconsciously, and the stinging sensation from the soft thorns digging into his fingers when playing with the moonlight flower was still very clear.
"In this cliff, you can actually see such a scene of flowers and wind. It is really worth the trip. If the moonlight flowers are in full bloom, it will definitely be like the twinkling stars. It will be beautiful." Looking at this area In the flower field, Yu Wenhan remembered the crape myrtle flower stand built by his mother in the yard many years ago. Because of his father's words, the mother and concubine started cultivating the soil, raising seedlings, holding the vines bit by bit, tending, watering, trimming, look forward to. But the heart of the mother-in-law fell before the flowering period.
"Look, it turns out that the leaves of the Moonlight Flower are heart-shaped! I have never seen a heart-shaped leaf before. It's so amazing. Does this flower have any meaning?" Yu Wenling looked at the heart-shaped leaves and was excited.
"Moonlight flower is also called Xiyan. It only blooms at night. We don't have many opportunities to see it here. The tribesmen say that the flower's flowering period is too short, time passes quickly, and its meaning is not very good." Yunchuan squatted and played with the flower bones. Then he said: "But I feel that this clearly represents eternity. When the sun fades and the prosperity fades, I will silently express my love for this grassland alone."
"Eternity?" Yang Qingyuan had not seen flowers or admired the moon like this for a long time. "Many people are obsessed with eternity, but in the end most of them are in vain."
"Why are you so pessimistic?" Yun Xi looked into Yang Qingyuan's eyes in confusion. The clear eyes in his memory now revealed a hint of absolute certainty. What have everyone experienced in the past eight years?
"It's very simple. Keep the beauty in your heart and everything will last forever." Yun Chuan put his right hand on his chest and said while looking at the white snow on the top of the Snow Dragon Mountain. Then he turned around and looked at Yang Qingyuan and Yu Wenhan with a playful smile: "Such a beautiful scene, one of you is indifferent and the other is worried, it's really irritating. Some good things don't need to be held in your hands all the time, but should be kept in your heart. The heart is always bigger than the hand.”
"Well, your comment is so right. I don't understand what they worry about every day? How many people are still hungry and naked. We should be lucky to be able to enjoy flowers and wine here. That's right." Yu Wenling said according to the situation, she really hoped that Yang Qingyuan could smile at her.
"But those people's lack of food and clothing is not something we should be thankful for. Hey, let's not talk about it anymore." Yunchuan couldn't bear to be disappointed and had to change the subject: "Little prince, when will these flowers bloom?"
"The tips of the flowers have bloomed, it's only been two or three days." Shengze looked at Yunchuan and said, "How about we agree to come back here to enjoy the flowers after returning from the Yunshi Conference?"
"Then we'll make it a deal!" Yu Wenling agreed unceremoniously.
"What about you, are you settled like this?" Yun Xi asked, looking at Yu Wenhan and Yang Qingyu.
"If the young prince Shengze doesn't think it's too troublesome for us to have too many people, of course we are willing to come together." Yu Wenhan said with cupped hands.
"Young prince, we have made an agreement. As soon as the Yunshi Conference is over, we will ride over here to watch the flowers and drink. We will never return until we are drunk!" Yunchuan said.
"Okay!" Shengze responded with a smile. He looked back at the flower field he had carefully built, and felt a little disappointed in the field.
The bright moon blew through the dark clouds, and the sky had darkened. The six people walked down the mountain road.
The birch forest was rustled by the early summer breeze, and the howling of animals could be heard faintly in the distance. The entire grassland seemed solemn and silent.
"If I were alone, I would be a little scared." Yu Wenling muttered.
"Then you ran out to chase us alone, now you know you're scared?" Although Yu Wenhan didn't like Yu Wenling's arrogance, as an elder brother, he still had the obligation to look after her.
"Uh, um, isn't this because I want to find you all?" Yu Wenling replied hesitantly.
The six of them were preparing to go to the birch forest to pick up their horses. At this moment, a dozen black figures with swords swooped out of the forest. Yu Wenling screamed in panic and retreated with Yun Xi and Yu Wenhan. Take a few steps and retreat to the rock wall.
"Who?!" Shengze and Yunchuan shouted, and they rushed to the front with Yang Qingyuan to mingle with the man in black.
The man in black found that it was difficult to tell the difference between the three of them, so they split into two paths. The three men in black jumped on the tree and flew to the place where Yun Xi and the others were. Yu Wenhan opened his arms to block the front. The man in black pointed his sword at Yu Wenhan's chest, "Yunchuan, come quickly!" Yun Xi shouted for help.
Yunchuan did a somersault in the air and struck the man in black with three palms on his head. The man in black vomited blood and fell down. Yun Chuan immediately kicked the men in black running towards him on both sides, shouting at the same time: "Yun Xi, take them and ride away first, hurry!"
"Brother Qingyun, can you leave?" Yu Wenling shouted towards Qingyun.
"Then what should you do?" Yun Xi shouted in panic.
"Leave us alone, we can handle it." Yunchuan urged.
"Watch your back!" A man in black rushed behind Yunchuan and was about to slash him with his sword. Fortunately, Yu Wenhan picked up a big stone and threw it at the back of the man in black. He fell at Yu Wenling's feet and vomited blood. At the corner of her skirt, Yu Wenling felt dizzy and fell to the ground in fright.
