Chapter 32: upset

About ten miles away from the west of Wangdu, there is a rolling grassland. A Qingqing river flows from the side, and on the other side of the river bank is a dense forest.
Because of the quiet scenery, complete terrain, and close to the official road, it has always been a place where your sons run horses to play or practice riding and shooting.
The sound of the hoof is like rain, and the two horses galloping along the river bank are one after the other. The horse is like a dragon, like a man, and the horse is carved with a saddle. Rarely, the riding is also matched. It is extremely superb. Turning the horse's head and stepping into the river, the water splashed up and wet the soap boots and arrow clothing.
"Jing Rui! Don't be crazy, it's winter, you come up to me!" The man on the shore strangled Ma Rein and shouted.
The knight in the water seemed not to have heard it. The crotch and jade stepped on the water, and the depth of the water gradually reached the horse's belly.
"Okay!" The shore person also moved, "Are you not coming up? Isn't it that I'm going down, it's a big freeze, and I will get sick like before ..."
With this sentence, the person on the shore rushed down without any ambiguity. His companion finally responded, pulled the horse over to block it, and the two rode and ran obliquely, crossing a small slope, and Xiao Jingrui suddenly took the reins and jumped. After dismounting the horse, he ran a few steps with force and fell to the ground, burying his head in the deep grass.
Yan Yujin shook his head and shook his stirrup to dismount the horse. He walked over and kicked softly on his stomach: "Hey, pretend to die?"
The people on the ground didn't even hum, and their dark hair was scattered on his cheeks, covering his face with wild grass.
"I really can't help you." Yan Yujin sat down next to him, tearing a piece of grass off his mouth. "Don't you love to be generous when you were young? Who doesn't know Prince Xiao is broad-minded and A gentle person is a rare modest gentleman.
What's wrong with this? Brother Su didn't say anything, how could you be so angry? "
Xiao Jingrui turned suddenly, his face tight, and his eyes stared straight into the sky.
"After drying your back, have you changed your belly?" Yan Yujin smiled and lay beside him, fiddled with grass blades to fiddle with his ears, "Is the shoes and socks wet? Take off the sun."
"Go away, don't bother me!" Xiao Jingrui opened his hand.
Yan Yujin immediately raised his eyebrows: "Hey! You see clearly, it's me. I'm not your punching bag. You have been coldly received by other friends, but don't ask me to make up. I have never given anyone a nest. habit!"
Xiao Jingrui sat up and stared at him angrily: "What are you talking about?"
"If you stare at me, I'm afraid of you?" Yan Yujin stared back, louder than loud, "You are angry just because you feel left out! The brother Su said to you 'Jing Rui, don't ask me When it ’s not your business, you are already feeling uncomfortable, right? "
"I do not have……"
"Don't pretend to be in front of me," Yan Yujin blocked back in one sentence, "Then go out of the palace, he doesn't take the carriage, he says he wants to walk slowly for a while, he is ready to think about something, you are I can't see your expression at that time ... I was chased to accompany him later, but I was rejected? Isn't it a polite, a rejection, a clear expression that I don't want you to follow me, why don't you understand? "
"I understand!"
"Understood that you are still gambling? At that time, what you said was just like a child, what's that then you go, I'm going to play polo", how do you expect him to answer you? Do you want to hear him say? Jingrui, why are you doing this? I'm sick, you still have to leave me to play / '? Please, how old are you, and Brother Su's answer is correct, you can do what you want, you don't need to tell him.
This is just a truth, don't you want to turn around and leave? "
"But we are friends," Xiao Jingrui bit his lower lip. "Shouldn't friends care about each other?"
Yan Yujin shrugged and flattened his mouth: "You said you understand.
Let me tell you, Brother Su said that, not to refuse you to care about him, he really, really wanted to walk back slowly by himself! As for why he wants to walk on the street by himself, I haven't figured it out yet.
I had planned to secretly follow the past, but as a result, you idiot turned around and left, so I had to chase you over. "
"You mean ..." Xiao Jingrui asked staringly, "Brother Su wants to go alone, not only to think about things, but also for other purposes?"
Yan Yujin laughed a few times and squinted at his friend, "Jing Rui, you don't think that until now, Brother Su came to Jinling with us, to heal the sick?"
"I ..." Xiao Jingrui stalked, "Of course I'm not so slow ... He didn't seem to deliberately hide from us, and he has been letting things go like this ..."
"Brother Su was involved in this series of incidents when he arrived in Beijing. It must not be accidental.
All his actions should have his specific purpose, but we do n’t know what he wants to do. "
Xiao Jingrui's two thick and clear eyebrows squeezed towards the center, extruding two lines, and sighed again, "I think I know ..."
"You know?" Yan Yujin's eyes widened suddenly and pressed against him, "Then talk about it!"
"I asked Xie Bi about it. The" Kirin Talent "he mentioned at the time was originally said by Langya Pavilion Master.
The crown prince and Yu Wang scrambled to grab him, and the roots are here too, "Xiao Jingrui pushed the pile of weight on his body. Without pushing, it was fine," I think, with Brother Su ’s power and Jiang Zuomeng ’s power, he could not be I didn't know about it until I arrived in Beijing ... "
"Well," Yan Yujin nodded, "justified, continue."
"Since Brother Su has long known that Prince and Yuwang are interested in him, even if he does not come to Beijing, trouble will still come to the door.
Perhaps it was not just himself, but also the entire Jiang Zuomeng that would be involved. "
"So this suzerain master went to Beijing to deal with the trouble so as not to lead the trouble to Langzhou?" Yan Yujin smiled with his head tilted, "It also makes sense, people like you will speculate on the result . "
"Of course I'm not so naive!" Xiao Jingrui pounded his head hanging over himself with some anxiety. "But Brother Su is very passive in this matter! The power of Prince and Yuwang is by no means a gang of rivers and lakes. Let ’s say that Brother Su was full of talents and learned with deeds, and indeed deserved the reputation of being a unicorn.
Even if he came to Beijing to really want to choose his lord, there is nothing wrong with it. The eldest husband is still alive. Who does n’t want to build merits and gain fame? What ’s more, you and I can see how much he cares about his Jiang Zuomeng. If he succeeds in Beijing, Jiang Zuomeng will get the support of the imperial court. This is one of his goals ... "
"Then what are you going to do?" Yan Yujin looked at him deeply. "He is a river and lake man, but he wants to get involved in the political situation and disputes for his merits. You are clearly a child of Houmen, but he always hopes to stay away from politics , You are obviously two people running against each other. Why do you still value him so much? "
"This is two different things! I value Brother Su because he is a good friend worth making. Does it have anything to do with his future career?"
"But the path he chose was not the same as the princes of the world," Yan Yujin's tone gradually revealed a coldness, "Jing Rui, Brother Su has obviously become involved in the battle for the succession of the heirs. Do n’t you feel a little uneasy?

Xiao Jingrui pursed his lips for a long time and sighed, "Yes, I am a little worried, in case the party he chooses will lose in the future ..."
"I don't mean that," Yan Yujin immediately interrupted him. "I don't care which side he chooses, but what about you? Are you afraid that Xie's position is exactly the opposite of him?"
Xiao Jingrui never thought of going up on this level. He stayed for a long time before eating and saying: "There will be no such problem, although Xie Bi is partial to Yu Wang, but my father is very neutral ..."
"Your dad can't stay neutral all the time!" Yan Yujin asserted, "Your dad is different from my dad. Although my dad has a place, but he hangs on leisure, your dad is the head of the Wuchen, the court pillar. "Reserving is one of the biggest things in the history of the royal family. How can it be so easy to stay out of it."
"But ... but ..." Xiao Jingrui thought carefully, thinking of the worst place, and suddenly felt a horror, and a cold sweat came out.
"Hey, hello," Yan Yujin slaps his white cheeks quickly. "The odds of opening five to five are not low. You don't have to scare yourself like this so early?"
Xiao Jingrui lifted his friend away with a heavy face. "No, I still have to persuade Brother Su. This is too muddy in the game. He better not come in ..."
"Cut, you said he was passive. Even if he agreed to you, did Prince and Yuwang agree?" Yan Yujin clapped the grass scraps on his hands and sat up cross-legged. "Jing Rui, to be honest, Things have long been beyond our ability, but I will remind you that you will not be friends or enemies. Do n’t be too kind to him. "
Xiao Jingrui was stiff all over, wondering if he couldn't understand why the other person said this, or was shocked by the deep meaning in his words, and looked at Yan Yujin for a long time without answering a word.
"Alas," the unreasonable young uncle rarely showed a serious expression. He put his hands on Xiao Jingrui's shoulders and whispered, "You should also understand that Brother Su is a different person from us. , How deep and hard his heart is, what kind of thoughts are contained in it, we can't see at all ... But you are different, your heart is too hot, too soft, too real, so listen Mine, a little distance apart, is it not good for everyone to just keep a general relationship? He is not the Su brother who you brought into Beijing and promised to take care of him. I ’m sure he does n’t have it in his mind now. I think of you in half an hour. If you still treat him as a good friend as before, you will definitely be the one who loses and hurts in the future. Do you understand? "
"Yujin ..."
"It's a good friend who tells you these things.
From now on, you have to say to yourself that Su Zhe is a friend of yours who meets and has no deep friendships. You went to Beijing together, and he borrowed from your guest house, that's all.
You do n’t need to regard him as your confidant any more. I do n’t know how intimate he is to you. I only know that you ca n’t be his confidant in his eyes.
Because saying something unpleasant, Brother Su is a bottomless person. Neither you nor I, we are infinitely beautiful, and we are not qualified to be his confidant. "
Xiao Jingrui had almost never seen Yan Yujin talk to him so seriously, and he couldn't help being shocked. He bowed his head and thought for a long while. His words were correct, but the subtle mutual feelings between people are not what they are. Can these three words be clearly distinguished?
"Okay, after the words are over, you think slowly." Yan Yujin jumped up, dragging Xiao Jingrui's arm to pull him up again, and showing a heartless smile, "Now accompany me to Miao Yinfang to listen I have n’t been to the song for a long time. Ms. Gong Yu must have missed me. I heard that there are still new tunes by Mr. Thirteen. Let ’s go to the lake to see the lights in the painting at night. How about that?

"How is it possible," Xiao Jingrui gave him a white look, "Your grand master asked me to accompany me, dare not to accompany me?"
"Haha, this is the acquaintance.
Seeing you wet and not afraid of the cold, go quickly, and you will change your clothes when you arrive at Miao Yinfang ... "
"Yujin ..."
"Ok?"
"I'll go back and change my clothes ..."
"Please, your home is close to the city, and the Miaoyinfang is at the west gate. Can't you tell where is near you?"
Xiao Jingrui's line of sight patrolled the ground for a while, and whispered: "I still want to go back and see ... I don't know if Brother Su went alone ... I didn't get home ..."
Yan Yujin collapsed his shoulders, and his expression was extremely helpless.
"At that time, I turned around and left. How did you see his reaction?"
"There was no reaction at all." Yan Yujin said with a straight face, "He was really thinking about things at that time, he didn't even notice that you were angry, or he took his original steps and slowly step by step. Go away. "
"You also know that after drinking that glass of alcohol, he has signs of illness and walks slowly because of discomfort.
Even if you are just a general friend like you said, you should also pay attention to it, what if he fainted halfway? After all, this capital is not Jiang Zuo, and Fei Liu did n’t follow him.
"Okay, okay," Yan Yujin raised his hands to admit defeat, "It sounds like I really have no heart.
According to you, look for him along the road first. If we are really picked up by the halo, send it back and listen to the music first. Do you mean that? "
"Why does it sound awkward no matter what you say?"
"Is it awkward for me or awkward for you?" Yan Yujin snorted, "What kind of person is the Jiangzong League Sect Master? Since his purpose in coming to Jinling was not to heal, then he could never really be Bring a fly.
I do n’t know anything else, but the four masters who escorted me into Beijing are still living in the city now. "
"Just look at it, I'm afraid in case ..."
"I said it's up to you, what else is it verbose?" Yan Yujin turned and took the two's mounts, threw Xiao Jingrui's horse reins to him, climbed the saddle by himself, left foot stretched into the stirrup, right foot just With a push, suddenly "Ouch" burst out.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Jingrui turned his head.
"Stepping on a stone, I almost slipped." Yan Yujin withdrew his left foot, dialed the gravel, and kicked off.
The falling point of the stone was a depression in the pasture. Due to the thick grass, the falling stone itself did not make a loud noise, but the sound of Kusama knew it better.
"Who is eavesdropping?" Yan Yujin raised his eyebrows and shouted loudly.
"I'll come to you first and then come, why talk about eavesdropping?" A voice rang quietly, "I've tried my best not to disturb you, but a stone came down from the sky, must I be allowed to hide?"
With the voice of Qingyue, two noble sons stood up slowly in front of their eyes.
He was dressed in a simple lotus-colored silk gown, tall and slender, with long hair and a half-bundle and half-covered hair, and his eyes were deep, like a smile, obviously a young and beautiful face, but there was a strand of white hair on the forehead. The faint appearance between Wu Si made him add a little soft temperament.
