According to the custom of Jiyang, people are sent to the coffin on the wooden boat and buried in water. The wooden boat is also called "boat carrying soul". Because Jiyang relies on water, Jiyang people think that the goddess of water will use a boat to carry people's soul to the other side.
He Yan did not forget the last journey to see Liu off.
Liu did not forget to lie in the coffin. His face was very calm. I didn't know what he thought before he died. The corner of his mouth was also smiling. He Yan put a handful of flowers on the wooden boat.
In fact, the friendship between her and Liu Buxin was very short. It was Liu Bujiu who pulled her out of the dead and taught her how to use the sword and arrow to bow the horse. His Qimen dunjia combined with the martial arts he had learned, which changed his life.
If it had not been for the hand Liu did not forget, she would have died in the desert of desert county. To live a life again, I never forget to meet Liu. I thought it was a gift from God, but this fate was like a flash in the pan, and quickly disappeared.
He Yan hates that he didn't say more words with Liu Bujiu, leaving many regrets now. She did not have time to ask Liu not to forget what happened with Mu Hongjin, nor did she ask him where he had gone through these years. She did not have the opportunity to Liu Bu forget to disclose her own worries, those uncertain worries. In her life, it seemed that her elders were not very well connected. The fate of his parents and relatives is even more thin. Liu never forgets that he is also a teacher and father, and now he has left.
There are always too many regrets in the world.
"Your Highness." He Yan hears Cui Yue's mouth behind him. She looked back and saw Mu Hongjin coming.
Instead of wearing the red robe, she changed into a black one. Her long hair was braided and coiled, and she wore a gold crown. She was still as beautiful and powerful as before, and there was a trace of bewilderment in her expression. This makes her look like a lost child, actually out of some vulnerability.
He Yan gets out of the way, and Mu Hongjin walks forward to the wooden boat.
The man on board, with only a sword and a piano, will be left in the coffin together. This is how he left the world when he went down the mountain. Although the young man in white is old, it seems that he is still a young man.
Mu Hongjin looks at it.
Xiao Jue said that when Liu Bujiu was not there, she felt unbelievable at first, and then she felt ridiculous. Then, a huge loss came over, which made her hard to believe that this had happened.
But what happened is what happened. A lot of things would not have been changed by people's will. And she is no longer an ignorant little girl, as long as her head is buried in the pillow and deceives herself that she doesn't believe it.
So she came.
Liu buforget died in order to protect Jiyang city. Before his death, he set up a battle on the Bank of the river in front of the gourd mouth. He did not tell anyone.
As always, he would not say anything.
This is the only man she has ever loved in her life. Even if Liu Bu forgets that there are other people in her heart, they have already broken up for many years, but they are worried about it after all. When he dies, Mu Hongjin will still be sad.
"Your Highness." He Yan thought for a while, walked forward, spread out his palm, "can you know this?"
Mu Hongjin slowly turned his head and saw a silver bracelet lying in his hand. The bracelet was polished smooth and moist, and there was a circle of tiny daisies carved on the edge. For a moment, the pictures of the past filled my mind, as if there was an old woman's kind voice falling in my ear.
"It's called Yuexin bracelet. Buy one and wear it on your sweetheart's hand. You can't separate it all your life."
"Young Xia Liu, do you hear me? Buy one and give it to me!"
"She's not my sweetheart."
Mu Hongjin looked at the bracelet in front of her eyes, such as looking at the late gift. She only felt her throat tightened and asked in a hoarse voice, "how could you have this?"
"Before she died, master was holding this bracelet tightly. I think it should be very important to him. " He Yan looked at Mu Hongjin, "is this your Highness's bracelet?"
Mu Hongjin took the bracelet in Heyan's hand and murmured, "I don't know."
How could she know? Those who played jokes at that time had already fallen into the depth of memory, even the memories did not dare to take out memories. She has faced the quality, Liu does not forget not to like himself, but now the bracelet is clear, clearly told her, the original Liu Bu forget the heart, had their own?
How can she believe it?
How could she believe it?
He Yan's heart, is also floating a weak sadness. Liu buforget has gone, and no one knows what happened in those years, but she still wants to defend Liu buforget.
"Your Highness, I always feel that there may be many misunderstandings between you and master in those days." He Yan said: "but people are no longer here. If your highness knows this bracelet, please keep it for your highness. If your highness feels embarrassed Put it back in the coffin. "
"But I think," He Yan said softly, "if master is still there, he will want you to keep it."
A gift not sent out, a late explanation, a frank confession, this is probably the most regretful thing in his life.
But what's the use of regret? When a person dies, all the gratitude and resentment related to it, whether willing or not, will disappear.That's the end of the story.
Mu Hongjin looked at the silver bracelet between his palms. After a moment, he slowly clenched his palm and said in a low voice, "I know."
He Yan looks at her, is to put away the bracelet, heart a little relieved. She can not forget to do a lot for Liu, now, only one thing.
When the coffin was closed, the boat was surrounded by wild flowers of various colors. Liu did not forget to go down the mountain in spring. Now, she has to go back to spring. The river pushed the boat forward, farther and farther away, and gradually disappeared in the blue waves among the mountains.
"What is the other shore?" He Yan murmured in a low voice.
But who knows? Just like when Liu buforget to go down the mountain and meet Mu Hongjin, he sneers at the flower seller's words of "lifetime".
At that time, I only felt that my life was long, but I had seen a few people, heard a few songs, met several times, and left for several times, and my life was over.
……
After Liu buforget's funeral, Heyan and his party will leave for Liangzhou Wei.
Cui Yuezhi came to see them off. He stood at the gate of Cui's mansion and taught people to carry things on the carriage.
"These are all specialty products of Jiyang. You can take more. There is no such thing in Liangzhou. "
Lin Shuanghe held his head with a fan and said, "you don't need to take the roast rabbit with you. It's greasy. It's not convenient for the carriage."
"Take it," Cui insisted. "You're hungry on the way. Zhongfu," he asked the housekeeper to come over. "Are the apricots ready?"
"All right." Zhong Fu came over with a bag of red apricots. "They were all washed clean. The governor and the girl were thirsty on the way. They ate two, which quenched their thirst and were delicious."
He Yan said ... "
I don't know, I think they are going on a youth outing.
It's hard to be kind.
"That's enough, Mr. Cui," He Yan said with a smile, "if you decorate more things, the governor and I will have no place to sit."
Cui Yuezhi looked at the packed carriage and finally stopped. He said with a smile, "OK, that's all. Your stay in Cui's house is too short. I'll show you around the whole city of Jiyang. " Speaking of this, he solemnly bowed down to Xiao Jue and Heyan, and said, "the difficulty of Jiyang city can be solved, thanks to governor Xiao, Miss He, and master Liu. This great kindness, Cui will never forget, Jiyang people will also remember your kindness. If you can use Cui's place and Jiyang city's place in this life, Cui and Jiyang people will go through fire and water
"Miss He, if she has a chance in the future, she must come to Jiyang city more often." It was Cui Yuezhi's fourth aunt. She said with a smile, "I'll stay longer next time. I'll make you delicious food."
The second aunt looked at Xiao Jue and said with a smile, "so is governor Xiao."
Wei aunt glared at them two people one eye, went up to take He Yan's hand, ordered a way: "be careful on the way."
He Yan nods with a smile. Just as he was saying, someone outside came to pass on a message: "Lord Zhongqi, Muyi has brought people here to say goodbye to miss he."
Xiao Jue picks eyebrow, he Yan asks: "say goodbye to me?"
Muyi's men were the 50 people who planned to go with Heyan to set fire to the Otto warship at that time. Of these 50 people, about 20 died in the war, but half of them were saved. At this moment, the remaining 20 people heard that he Yan was going to leave, and they came with Mu Yi to thank him.
"Thanks to miss he," a young man scratched his head, "otherwise we may not be here now. Before she leaves, the brothers intend to come and say thanks to miss he. "
Muyi took out a frame made of wood from his arms and handed it to Heyan: "this is a gift for Miss He from everyone."
He Yan took a look and saw that it was a wood painting carved from the whole wood. In the sea of fire, a young woman in armor stood at the bow of the boat. The woman held a whip, and her long hair was tied up high behind her head. She was brave and bright.
He Yan looked for a long time and hesitated to ask, "this is Me? "
"Yes." There is also a humanitarian: "let's gather some money together and find the best craftsman in Jiyang city to carve it out. However, the charm of miss he was still not engraved. When she sank the Otto warship with a whip, it was really exciting to see. It was much more powerful than what was engraved on the painting! "
"That is, this painting can also carve out the beauty of Miss He, which is not as beautiful as Miss He herself!"
"That's to say, the fairies can't draw such beautiful looks as Miss He."
At the end, it was all a serious praise, which made Heyan blush. Well, she felt the enthusiasm of the men in Jiyang at the moment.
Cui Yuezhi looked at the eyes with a smile.
Mu Yi looked at Heyan and said, "does he girl have to go back to Liangzhou?"
He Yan Leng for a moment, nodded to answer: "I still have important things in the body."
"So." In the eyes of the young man, a trace of regret flashed. But for a moment, he looked into Heyan's eyes and asked earnestly, "will you come to Jiyang city in the future?"Muyi was born handsome and masculine, sincere and slightly shy eyes fell on people, it is really irresistible. He Yan, even though he was aware of it again, understood a little bit in the face of such a look in the eyes. She is a little embarrassed, but also very moved, no one in the face of a sincere feelings, will not be indifferent.
It's a great honor to be admired.
"I like Jiyang city very much." She smiles and looks at Mu Yi, "if there is a chance in the future, I will come again."
Mu Yi was stunned, scratched his head and laughed foolishly.
"Gee," said Lin Shuanghe, shaking her fan and approaching Xiao Jue's ear, "as I said earlier, my sister Wo's looks and temperament will certainly be liked. You see, there are so many covetous eyes. Tut Tut, you must take good care of my sister he. "
Xiao Jue chuckled, as if it was incredible, "what vision."
"Good eyes, of course." Lin Shuanghe put away his fan. "You know, gold always shines."
While they were talking, someone came out of the house. The man was in a blue robe, thin and warm. It was Chu Zhao. Around Chu Zhao, Ying Xiang carried a burden in his hand.
"Fourth master of Chu?" Cui Yuezhi was stunned for a moment.
Cui Yuezhi knows the relationship between Chu Zhao and Xiao Jue from Mu Hongjin's mouth. The relationship between the two people does not deal with each other, and their positions are different. Mu Hongjin arranged them in one place, of course, there is a principle of checks and balances. Speaking of it, Chu Zhao's military defense map and news also contributed to the defeat of the uto people this time. But Cui Yuezhi was a martial arts practitioner. He had a feeling of sympathy for Xiao Jue. Later, he fought side by side with Xiao Jue. The balance in his heart had already fallen to Xiao Jue. In order to Chu Zhao, there is a bit of courtesy and unfamiliar.
"Where is the fourth master of Chu going Cui Yuezhi asked.
"I came to Jiyang for the sake of the uto people. It's time to say goodbye to you. " He smiles, "I didn't tell Lord Cui before, and I don't want to trouble him. These days, the battlefield near the canal has been cleaned up, and Lord Cui should also have no skills."
"He said it so well that he was very understanding, and we acted like a show." Lin Shuanghe approached Xiao Jue and said in a low voice, "he is too good at talking."
Cui Yuezhi said with a smile: "the fourth master of Chu is polite. You should say it in advance. Even if Cui is busy, there is still time for him to practice. However, "Cui Yuezhi looked at Xiao Jue," if the fourth master of Chu set out today, wouldn't he be able to go with governor Xiao, and it won't be too lonely along the way. "
When Xiao Jue heard the speech, her expression was cold and even a trace of pretending to be happy was stingy.
He Yan thought that Cui Yuezhi's politeness was a little stiff. Chu Zhao is afraid that he chose it on purpose. Today, he wants to set out together.
However, what she didn't expect was that Chu Zhao heard the speech and said with a smile: "yes, it happens that our destination is also liangzhouwei."
Liangzhouwei?
He Yan was surprised: "Chu How did the fourth young master go to Liangzhou Wei? "
Xiao Jue raised her eyes and her eyes fell on him.
"I have written to Xu Xiang about the military affairs at the end of Jiyang." Chu Zhao smiles, "I will stay in liangzhouwei until your Majesty's order comes down. After all, Chu was present from the beginning to the end
He did not go on, but his meaning was clear to all.
Cui Yue's heart was full of murmur. The fight between the court and the court was fierce to this extent? It's no wonder that the utos will take advantage of it.
Xiao Jue smell speech, first is a Xiang, then smile not smile: "Chu four childe want to live in Liangzhou Wei, can."
"but Liangzhou Wei, Ben Shuai has the final say."
Chu Zhao said with a smile.
He ignored Chu Zhao and turned to get on the carriage. He Yan looks at Chu Zhao differently. This man It seems to be on purpose.
Deliberately to the point that he would not even cover up.
She saluted Chu Zhao and said, "brother Chu, I'll get on the carriage first."
Without waiting for Chu Zhao to speak, Heyan hurriedly got on the carriage. Chu Zhao is so provocative that Xiaoer must be displeased. At this juncture, you can't pluck the tiger's hair. If Xiao Jue is provoked and she is not allowed to enter the Nanfu army, this trip will be a waste of money.
Her act of hastily getting on the carriage falls into Chu Zhao's eyes. Chu Zhao is shocked for a moment, shaking his head and laughing. He said goodbye to Cui Yuezhi and others one by one, and then he followed Yingxiang to his carriage.
The carriage drove out of the city.
Lin Shuanghe lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked out of the window. Jiyang city has just passed the wutuobing incident, which is not as lively as before. But the rivers, big and small, are still floating. I don't think it will be long before I come back to the lively pictures.
When he came, Quan was playing and making a scene. When he really wanted to leave, he had a lot of sadness. Lin Shuanghe looked at it and sighed.
He Yan also held the woodcut paintings that a group of people sent her. At the fingertip, the woman depicted in the painting has the demeanor of a former female general.
Xiao Jue saw her movement and scoffed: "now I'm not afraid to take it back to other people of liangzhouwei to see it?"
In the past, a face person was in a lot of trouble and tangled. Now, with such a large woodcut, she is as good as a treasure. She never mentions the words that "it's over to be found a woman's identity". A woman's mind is really not true."No, I can say it's for my fiancee. You taught me that, governor He Yan said: "there are so many people and so many hearts. It's hard to be gracious."
She was modest in her mouth, but her eyes were full of satisfaction and complacency. Xiao Jue only felt funny. She looked back slightly, and a little smile passed in her eyes. She said, "it's very popular."
The carriage gradually moved away.
Mu Hongjin stands on the shore, where the green hills are heavy, and there is no shadow of the boat carrying the soul. Once the youth returned to the mountains, lakes and seas, and she will continue to sit here, the cold hall, that high seat.
It's her responsibility.
"Your Highness is on his way back." "Your Highness, let's go back to the mansion," the maid said softly
Mu Hongjin nodded and finally took a look at the end of the river. He turned around. The robe was majestic and beautiful. There was a silver light between his wrists, which quickly disappeared.
No one knows where the tourists come from, wearing bamboo hats and holding bamboo sticks, walking along the river bank and singing. Their voice drifts in the river along the wind and gradually goes away.
"When I return home, I still miss the court. How can I comfort my loneliness now My clothes are thin, and I ride a thin horse on the waning moon I also know that life should be different, but I'm afraid the years will go by. The cold lamp remembers the past, when does the night rain listen to the bleak... "
