Ling Yun was in a depressed mood and was very drunk. Thanks to the girl Jiao Xing and several attendants, he was helped back to Huanyun Pavilion; Jiao Xing was even more worried about him and took good care of him all night long without clothes on.
When Ling Yun woke up the next morning, he saw Jiao Xing's clothes were disheveled and her body was dirty, so he asked her if something had happened.
Jiao Xing's face suddenly turned red to her ears, and she couldn't help but think of last night.
At that time, she was living in the same room with the county horse master. Although she was just a girl, she was still in her youth and had just begun to fall in love. How could she not be moved by a very charming man whom she respected and admired? ? What's more, that man still held her tightly while he was confused and infatuated...
Thanks to her being more sensible at the time. Thinking that the county horse was just drunk and mistaking her for another woman, and thinking that she was just a humble and despicable girl, she couldn't help but feel inferior, so she struggled to get away from him and ran away. During the struggle, she accidentally tore her to pieces. That sleeve...
Ling Yun was ashamed and regretful at the same time, and said in a deep voice: "Jiao Xing, I'm sorry. In fact, I really didn't mean it last night. If there is any offense, please forgive me..."
Jiao Xing lowered her eyes slightly and said in panic: "The commander said that he is going to kill the servant. It is the servant's duty to serve the commander and the princess wholeheartedly, not to mention that the princess and Xiangyun are not here now. By your side, it is your duty to take good care of the horses."
Ling Yun couldn't help but feel a little melancholy after hearing this. He couldn't say anything while he was pondering, so he just sighed softly.
Jiao Xing lowered her head, repeatedly twisting the corners of her clothes with both hands, and whispered: "If you have no other instructions, I will leave first."
Ling Yun felt a mess in his heart, and glanced at her silently, wanting to say something grateful or comforting, but at the moment he didn't know where to start, so he could only wave his hand feebly at her, motioning for her to go down first.
Jiao Xing responded calmly, bowed to him with some restraint, then turned around and went out.
Ling Yun was the only one in the room at this time. He looked sadly at the red flowers and green grass outside the window, and the spring scenery in the garden, and couldn't help but think of Jiang Chun and Lu Qiuyue who had run away from home.
The future is difficult and dangerous. He doesn't know where the two lovers in trouble, floating like floating catkins and shadows, are, and what is their current situation?
At this time, Jiang Chun and Lu Qiuyue were already in a small town outside Luoyang, hundreds of miles away from the capital; that evening, the two stayed in a hotel called the VIP Guesthouse.
After dinner, the waiter cleared away the dishes and said with a smile: "You two, please have a good rest. The younger one will leave first." After that, he looked at them meaningfully, then gently closed the door and went out.
Lu Qiuyue smiled bitterly and said: "If you listen to what this bastard waiter said, he has clearly regarded you and me as..." At this point, her cheeks turned red with embarrassment and she stopped talking.
Jiang Chun had a gentle smile on his lips and said softly: "What's so embarrassing about this? After all, it's just a matter of time between the two of us!"
Lu Qiuyue raised her curved eyebrows and said angrily: "Okay, you are not serious, see if I won't hit you!" After saying that, she raised two small pink fists and hit him in the chest; Jiang Chun quickly laughed While dodging, the two of them got into a quarrel.
Lu Qiuyue calmed down for a long time, but her worries and worries began to rise on her brows and then on her mind.
She silently walked to the window, opened it gently, and stared at the miserable cold moon in the sky. At this time, a cool breeze blew quietly on her face, and she couldn't help but feel a chill that chilled her soul and bones. I shivered and tears fell unconsciously.
Jiang Chun felt bitter in his heart and said in a deep voice, "What's wrong with you? Are you unable to bear the pain of wandering and wandering and regret it?"
Lu Qiuyue gently raised her hand, wiped away her tears and said, "No, I am thinking about my father and mother. I left quietly like this. They must be very angry and sad... I am sorry for them... …”
Jiang Chun said sadly: "Qiuyue, it's me who's sorry for you. It's me who caused you to abandon your family and career and not be able to live happily in front of your parents. If you want to blame you, blame me!"
Lu Qiuyue said: "Jiang Chun, please don't say that. Do you know which bird in the world is the most loyal to love?"
Jiang Chun said: "Is it Yuanyang?"
Lu Qiuyue said: "Yes, it is this kind of bird. The male bird and the female bird will always be together and love each other forever. If one bird dies, the other will never live alone. Any damage and blow will They cannot be separated, even if they die, they will die together..."
The more she spoke, the more emotional she became. Jiang Chun hugged her with both hands, and she pressed her delicate yet strong body tightly into his arms.
Jiang Chun said: "Qiuyue, I am lucky enough to have a confidante like you in this life. Jiang Chun will die without regrets."
Lu Qiuyue rolled her eyes at him and said angrily: "Don't say such unlucky words. Jiang Chun, do you think there really is a paradise in this world?"
Jiang Chun said: "Yes, there must be." While affectionately reciting a quatrain from his predecessors:
The flying bridge is faintly separated from the wild smoke,
Ask about fishing boats on the west bank of Shiji.
The peach blossoms follow the flowing water all day long,
Where is the cave on the clear stream?
Lu Qiuyue said with longing: "Yes, when the time comes we will find a paradise that no one else can find, and live there in seclusion for the rest of our lives. Men will farm and women will weave. We will work at sunrise and rest at sunset, and live our carefree days happily. .”
Jiang Chun said: "Let's raise a group of ducks. In the morning, I will drive the ducks to the river while wearing a bamboo hat and a bamboo pole. You can cook at home and cook while I finish releasing the ducks..." As he said this, he was already a little nervous. I was tired and couldn't help but yawned.
The two of them cuddled each other and fell asleep unconsciously, with sweet smiles on their faces...
While sleeping until midnight, Jiang Chun was suddenly awakened by a strange movement. His whole body was agitated. He looked for the sound and found that the door latch was moving up and down. His heart trembled and he hurriedly pushed Lu Qiuyue awake.
Lu Qiuyue was also so frightened that her heart fluttered, her eyes fixed on the door latch, and she leaned tightly into Jiang Chun's arms, trembling.
At this time, the door opened with a bang, and a dozen people broke in from the outside.
The leader was a Taoist priest in his fifties, dressed in green cloth robes and looking very energetic. He held a dust in his hand and a sword on his shoulder. He looked like an immortal, free and elegant.
There were men and women behind; Lu Qiuyue recognized that one of the women was Lanzhu, the eldest girl who used to serve her mother in the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Justice.
Jiang Chun looked at the Taoist priest in green, his eyes were scarlet, and he gritted his teeth and said, "You are Bai Yu——"
Bai Yu snorted coldly, "Thankfully you still recognize me. People say that catching a thief will catch you dirty, and catching an adulterer will catch both. Jiang Chun, you abducted Miss Shangshufu of the Ministry of Punishment and ruined a person's reputation. What crime should you be guilty of?"
Lu Qiuyue's almond-shaped eyes widened and she said, "Smelly Taoist priest, what are you talking about? Jiang Chun and I truly love each other. If that old man Ding Jinzhi hadn't interfered..."
Bai Yu raised the corner of his mouth in disdain, and his eyes were full of contempt and contempt, "Bah! Shameless bitch! People say that Miss Lu is knowledgeable and sensible, but she didn't expect that she is also so shameless. He actually eloped with someone! Alas, Lu Wenzheng has a daughter like you, this old face is really awesome!..."
Although Lu Qiuyue is usually arrogant and unruly, she is still a young girl who has not left the court. How can she bear being humiliated by Bai Yu? His face immediately turned red with embarrassment and tears streamed down his face.
Jiang Chun felt very uncomfortable when he saw his beloved woman being humiliated. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Bai Yu, you are not allowed to insult Miss Lu. If you have any problem, just come to me!"
Bai Yu narrowed his black eyes slightly and said coldly: "You two are like grasshoppers on a rope. No one can escape. Because of the elopement of the two of you, even the emperor was alarmed, and the entire capital was also under your control. Things have become a big deal - everyone is looking for you, and Pindao is also a person who loves to join in the fun!"
Jiang Chun raised his eyebrows and said through gritted teeth: "Bai Yu, what do you want?"
Bai Yu said calmly: "Actually, it's nothing, I just want to ask you two to come with us. With you, I will have something to say when I see Mr. Lu again!"
Lu Qiuyue's face changed color, and she gritted her teeth as she said, "You want to blackmail my father with this, it's simply a wishful thinking!..."
Bai Yu snorted and said, "Whether it's wishful thinking or not, you, Miss Lu, don't have the final say alone; since you two are so unwilling to cooperate, then we have no choice but to use force to solve the problem -"
As he spoke, he turned his sinister eyes, turned back to the man and woman behind him and said, "Zhang Weigu, Ling Bo'er, your chance to make a contribution has come!"
The two men responded, and both showed their swords; two pairs of sharp hawk-like eyes stared straight at Jiang Chun, with cold murderous intent in their dark eyes.
It turns out that after the tragedy at Feiyun Villa, Zhang Weigu, Ling Boer, Wu Chunxin and others were defeated and captured - those who understand current affairs are heroes, so they all joined the Tianxiao organization. The so-called wise sayings such as "A good bird chooses a tree to roost in, and a good minister chooses his master to serve" have become their reasons and excuses for betraying their former master and joining the enemy. …
What else could Jiang Chun say at this time? He had no other choice but to fight to the death. For Lu Qiuyue's sake, and for his own sake.
He raised his hand and drew out his long sword, then held the sword horizontally with one hand and protected Lu Qiuyue with the other as he walked step by step to the patio; Zhang Weigu and Ling Boer followed him step by step.
After a brief confrontation between the two sides, Jiang Chun acted like "white dew spread across the river, and amidst the thunder and thunder, the cold long sword cut across the dark night sky and struck straight at the opponent; Zhang Weigu and Ling Bo'er hurriedly waved their swords to meet them. The three of them walked like a revolving lantern. They circled and fought fiercely together.
Zhang Weigu and Ling Bo'er are both top-notch masters. Jiang Chun should be slightly above them in terms of martial arts attainments, but when the two of them join forces, their skill surpasses Jiang Chun's. Later, he was in danger and invincible.
He suddenly became anxious and thought, why don't I use a dangerous move to win by surprise? Seeing the two swords coming at them at the same time, he did not dodge, raised his hand and drew out his sword, using the "Phoenix Dance in the Nine Heavens" style, and slid up to meet the opponent's sword.
If Zhang Weigu and Ling Boer's skills were slightly weaker, Jiang Chun would have won; but unexpectedly, the two of them also used killer moves, so the needle pointed at Maimang, and both sides suffered losses.
Zhang Weigu and Ling Boer fell to the ground with blood dripping from their chests.
Jiang Chun was seriously injured. He was hit by a sword in his lower abdomen, and blood immediately gushed out. His face turned pale, he staggered back a few steps, swayed a few times, and fell to the ground. The long sword in his hand also became "sticky". Suddenly, it fell to the ground.
