The Words of the Number One

Chapter 31: fireworks

He woke up in the evening. He didn't seem to think that he could fall asleep. When he woke up, he stared at me for a long time.

But I didn't have time to respond to him, because my shoulders were so stiff that I lost consciousness. When he leaned on my shoulder, he almost unloaded all his strength on me. It was really not easy for me to hold him until he woke up.

I slowly turned my arms and rubbed my shoulders, and there was a crunching sound. He said with a complicated expression, "Why didn't you wake me up?"

"I'm afraid you'll kill me with a dagger again." I smiled at him.

If he asks me if it hurts at this time, I will definitely not say "it's okay", but tell him clearly that I am in pain. But he didn't ask me, he just frowned and rubbed his temples, looking out the window unnaturally.

During the night we reached a small village where only one room remained in the best inn in the town. After the shopkeeper said that there was only one room left, he said smoothly - the two of you are just right to live together.

Ji Yu glanced at me, I thought he would change to another inn, but he said, "Yes."

So he took the house card and went upstairs, and I followed him into the room. The room was not too big or too small, and the decoration was very simple. The bed was quite big, and two people could sleep without fighting.

I looked around and asked him, "Why do you need a room?"

"There is only one room left, I don't want to live in a poor house." Ji Yu wrote lightly, and then smiled slightly: "Are you afraid?"

I also responded with a smile and said, "Don't be afraid."

It stands to reason that after I become his handmaid, I am his woman, and he has the right to do anything to me. But Zikou said that Ji Yu would not force them unless she voluntarily.

With Ji Yu's recent mood, I don't think he will be interested. What's more, he let me sleep with him probably because of the nightmare. He didn't have nightmares when he fell asleep on my shoulder, he probably wanted to verify that he wouldn't have nightmares if I was by my side.

At night, Ji Yu asked me to sleep on the side next to the wall. Fortunately, it was winter and we had two quilts. Ji Yu lay next to me after a while, and he left a candle on the table as usual, emitting a dim yellow light.

I turned my back to him, listening to his long breathing, feeling a little uncomfortable.

Speaking of which, after my mother passed away, I have never slept with anyone in the same bed. Last time when Ji Yu fell asleep, I was very sleepy and fell asleep very quickly. This time, it was really amazing to know that someone was awake and lying next to me. People are very uncomfortable.

"Ah Zhi." He spoke suddenly.

"Ok."

"Sing a song."

"..."

I am really speechless.

The voice he spoke just now was lazy, neither like a joke nor very serious, I still answered realistically: "I am tone deaf, I can't sing."

"Try it, "Han Guang" is not bad, the tune is not difficult."

"I really…"

"you try."

I sighed a long time, and I could already foresee how he would laugh at me in a while.

"There are trees in the south, you can't stop thinking about it. There are wandering girls in Han Dynasty, you can't think about it..."

His body began to tremble slightly, and he changed from lying on his back to lying on his side. I could feel that he was struggling to hold back his laughter when we were both back to back.

I still sang the song, then shut my mouth and got ready to sleep.

"It's the first time I've seen you make such an impromptu arrangement. It's not easy without a single sound pair from beginning to end." Ji Yu said leisurely.

This may be his happiest tone these days.

But I don't feel happy.

When I was young, many people liked to make fun of me like this, making me sing or dance or embroider and laugh at me. At that time my mother was still alive, and she told me that whoever asks you to do it, you can’t tell you can’t understand it. boring people.

I've always been like this, but I can't just laugh it off with Ji Yu like I do with others.

Although I have already built a copper wall and iron wall, he is the person I am trapped inside the copper wall and iron wall.

Seeing that I had been silent all this time, Ji Yu seemed to sense something was wrong, so he said, "Are you angry?"

"I'm just sleepy," I whispered.

Ji Yu laughed, and said, "Okay, then I'll sing it to you to make amends."

"There are trees in the south, you can't stop thinking about it. There are wandering girls in Han Dynasty, you can't think about it..."

"The reeds are green, and the white dew is frost. The so-called Yiren are on the side of the water..."

"The moon rises brightly, and the people are arrogant. Relaxed and entangled, and laborious and quiet..."

He actually sang three songs in a row, from "Han Guang" to "Jian Jia" and then to "Moonrise", the connection was natural and smooth. Ji Yu's singing voice is very different from his usual speech, very clear and clean like a teenager, those songs sang from his mouth, even the songs I didn't like at first became nice.

Like the moonlight, like Qingxi, could it be that his wish is also to become such a person.

It's just that Qingxi flows through the dirty and dirty land, and it is irretrievably lost to its original state.

I fell asleep drowsily in his voice, and when I woke up again, it was dawn, and I didn't know when I fell asleep face to face with him. His hand grabbed my wrist, just like the night before when we shared the bed, but not so hard this time, just a loose grip.

He has to grab my hand, but I can't run.

Although I thought so, I let him continue to grab me. His long hair is scattered outside the quilt, and even a good-looking person has good-looking hair, smooth and black like satin, unlike my hair, which is dry and frizzy, and it feels a little rough to the touch.

The eyelashes are also very long, casting a shadow under the eyes.

The bruises and blacks are much better now, and it seems that I slept well last night.

Will he marry a wife? In the future, there may be someone who can watch him wake up like this every morning, and she can hug him without fear, kiss him, and say she loves him.

She should be a passionate and sincere girl who never gives up, even if she is cheated, she will still love Ji Yu even if she is hurt, and she will still love Ji Yu even if she is disappointed a thousand times.

It's not like me who is selfish, who refuses to give his heart because he hates being hurt.

As I was watching, he frowned and woke up slowly, looked at me for a while with bewildered eyes, and then gradually became sober.

Fortunately, his first reaction when he woke up this time was not to put a knife on my neck. It was really uncomfortable to face that situation as soon as he woke up.

He looked at his hand, which was holding my wrist, and muttered to himself, "Why..."

I didn't answer, just pulled my hand back and said to him with a smile, "Good morning."

"Did you drug me?"

"...You forgot that you are invulnerable to all poisons, what medicine should I give you?"

Convinced by me, Ji Yu frowned and pressed her temples.

Because of a good night's rest, Ji Yu recovered a lot, and even started to deal with letters in the carriage. I don't know why he has so many letters. From time to time, pigeons land on our window or on the car, bringing all kinds of information.

"Yang immediately found the evidence I had prepared. He and Chang Yibo mentioned that Zhao Guo wanted to betray him, and they ended up having a big fight." Ji Yu dipped the note in the water and looked at it. The writing was blurred and then completely melted.

It looks like things are going well.

"You have so many informants."

"Money can turn ghosts around. You don't seem to realize that Mother Gu of Lu Shu's family is also mine." Ji Yu looked at me with a smile.

Once the man regained his spirit, he returned to his terrible nature.

After Ji Yu finished processing the letters on hand, she asked me leisurely, "Is there anything you want to know?"

I thought about it and asked, "How is the period?"

"There's no news, it's about raising the baby with peace of mind."

"I heard that the new king of the Zhao Kingdom hates lobbyists and advisers. How are you going to lobby him?"

"It's because he hates lobbyists..." Ji Yu said flatly, "I've spent so much time in Wu, leaving him with no other choice but my advice."

It seems that Zhao Guo's trip, he has a plan in mind.

In the next few days, unfortunately, the inns we stayed in were all overcrowded, and often there was only one room left. I slept with Ji Yu in the same bed for several days, and every morning when I woke up, he must have grabbed my wrist. He doesn't seem to have those nightmares anymore, and for some reason he still keeps grabbing me.

During this period, because of Ji Yu's generous spending, he also provoked two groups of thieves, one group died under Ji Yu's poison, and the other group was directly wiped by Ji Yu's neck.

I have to say, he's pretty good. Song Changjun told me that Ji Yu didn't love qin and swords the most before, and now I can imagine him practicing martial arts for many years, and his swordsmanship should be good, but for some reason he uses a dagger instead of a sword.

The day before we arrived in the capital city of Zhao State was the Lantern Festival. The town where we stayed had fireworks. The owner of the shop was very enthusiastic and urged us to go and have a look. Ji Yu and I walked on the streets of the small town, the crowds were bustling with fireworks, and there was a warm atmosphere everywhere.

I used to think he didn't like fireworks, but it turned out that he just didn't like darkness, so he hated the dark night after the fireworks went off. But today, there were many lanterns hanging on the street, and he even happily bought a lotus lantern, holding it in his hand and walking leisurely.

"The day when I saw the light again after being blind for a year is the Lantern Festival, and the city is full of lights." Ji Yu said softly, and he raised the lamp to get closer, and the orange light reflected in his eyes.

"I like the Lantern Festival." He said so.

I looked at him, and behind him the fireworks rose into the sky, and many people around me clasped their hands together and began to pray. This seems to be a local custom, people will make a wish on the fireworks.

So I put my hands together and followed the crowd to pray for the gorgeous fireworks in the sky.

Ji Yu was a little surprised. He looked back at the fireworks, and then at me.

"You actually make a wish."

I smiled and let go.

"What wish did you make?"

"I made a wish about you."

Ji Yu was even more surprised. He asked, "What wish?"

"Music is only a gentleman, and there is no end to life."

This happy gentleman, I wish you a long life.

Ji Yu was stunned for a moment and then couldn't help laughing. He said, "I'm only twenty-six this year and I'm not an old man. I can live forever? What kind of birthday are you wishing?"

"You live long, so I can live long." I said lightly.

Ji Yu shook his head helplessly, and next time when the fireworks exploded, he would put his palms together and make a wish. After making the wish, he said: "I may give you a wish. I wish that you will gain weight. You are too thin. I am afraid that your wrist will be broken."

I laughed and he laughed too. In the world where people come and go, light and shadow crisscross, a very good Lantern Festival was spent.

From today, I will also like the Lantern Festival.

From today on, I no longer hate fireworks, and I will try to believe in gods, and I hope my wishes can come true.

Forgiveness and love are always difficult to dispel hatred, but a long time can, I hope he has a long life, can spend a lot of time to slowly heal his anger and hatred, and then get happiness, this is my wish.

Also my confession.
