Thousand Miles of Bright Moonlight

The flowing water is gurgling, the huai tree is shaded with thick green, and the weeping willows are blowing gently with the wind.

The carriage drove over the long bridge across the river and stopped in front of the river beach. The waiter retreated. Zheng Biyu lifted the driving curtain and looked around in a circle, indicating that Li Xuanzhen could get off the car.

Li Xuanzhen's head was wrapped in a flat scarf, and wearing a half-new, durable cloth robe with narrow sleeves, he jumped out of the carriage, and his soldiers brought the horses. There were quiver packages and other things hanging beside the saddle.

Zheng Biyu didn't get out of the carriage, but sat in the carriage, and said indifferently, "His Royal Highness, I can only send you here."

Li Xuanzhen looked back at her: "Yuniang, thank you."

Zheng Biyu smiled: "His Royal Highness doesn't have to thank me, I'm just paying back the kindness of His Highness back then."

Li Xuanzhen thought of the man, startled.

The wind was strong by the bridge, and Zheng Biyu raised his hand to grab the wind-blown hair on the sideburns: "Da Lang, you didn't kill Zheng Wu back then, I am very grateful to you."

...

Zheng Wu was the servant of the Zheng family, and later became Zheng Biyu's guard. When she married for the first time, Zheng Wu sent her out of the pavilion and watched her and her husband enter the green house and the bridal chamber.

Zheng Biyu has never looked at Zheng Wu more. She is a daughter of a family, with a noble birth and a great reputation. She is destined to marry a high family and be the mistress. How can she be self-conscious and pity the servants of the family?

Zheng Wu left the day after she got married.

He went on the battlefield, followed the Zheng family on the battlefield, starting with the youngest soldier, accumulating military exploits bit by bit. He valiantly killed the enemy and was promoted quickly, but there were too many people like him in the troubled times. After all, he was just a servant of the Xie family, no matter how hard he tried, in the end he was just a small captain next to Master Zheng.

Zheng Biyu's first husband died at the hands of the Li family. A few days before the city was broken, Zheng Wu came to her.

"Girl... The Zhao family is not an opponent of the Li family... Wei Jun will be able to attack the city in a few days."

He was standing under the steps with a knife in his hand, covered in blood, with a cramped expression, and his bright black eyes were looking straight at Zheng Biyu.

Finally, he plucked up the courage to say that sentence: "Come with me, I will leave with the girl, and be kind to the girl for the rest of my life."

Zheng Biyu has been familiar with women's training since childhood, followed the rules, and has never done anything out of the ordinary.

That night, she didn't know where she got her determination, she carried the skirt corners and stepped down the stone steps step by step, and walked in front of Zheng Wu.

Zheng Wu was in full bloom.

They didn't say a word, and looked at each other for a while.

Just when Zheng Wu wanted to say something, the sound of footsteps suddenly sounded. People sent by the Zheng family rushed into the Zhao Mansion, found them, and knelt at the feet of Zheng Biyu: "Girl, our family’s distant branch is now in Weijun University. Under the general’s account, he was quite trusted. Lang Jun sent his servants to inform the girl that the Wei army was as powerful as the Zhao family was exhausted. Please don’t panic the girl. General Wei Jun Li has already given instructions that Wei Jun will not offend the girl."

As if a gust of wind had blown, the fire that had just been ignited in Zheng Biyu's heart immediately went out.

She stayed at Zhao's house, waiting for her tribe to pick her up.

Zheng Wu didn't say a word, turned and left.

Soon, the Zhao family was destroyed, and the Li family sent someone to hire him. Zheng Biyu married Li Xuanzhen.

On the night of her marriage, she sat in the green house, gentle and dignified. Li Xuanzhen sat beside her, handsome and quiet. Both of them were almost indifferent and did not show any joy. The woman of Hexi couldn't help but be stunned. , Dare not make a joke.

In the middle of the night, the red candle was hanging high, and the guests had left. Zheng Biyu looked at the flickering candlelight, but he didn't know why, his eyes were suddenly red.

Li Xuanzhen glanced at her, stood up, and said, "You can settle down first."

Zheng Biyu was taken aback.

At this time, there was a clamor of fighting from behind the courtyard wall, and someone shouted that there was an assassin.

Li Xuanzhen raised the curtain and went out.

Not long after, Zheng Wu was **** and twisted by Wuhuada before Li Xuanzhen. The guard interrogated him, but he didn't say a word.

Li Xuanzhen raised the knife.

Zheng Biyu in the tent felt a little bit in his heart, found out, recognized Zheng Wu, and breathed.

Zheng Wu saw her and looked at her with straight eyes.

Zheng Biyu stiffened, but did not speak to stop Li Xuanzhen.

The long knife fell, and she gritted her teeth, without saying a word.

Zheng Wu also made no sound.

He was not dead, only a few hairs were shaved off with that knife.

Zheng Biyu's tears flowed down.

Li Xuanzhen motioned the others to step down, untie Zheng Wu's shackles, and looked back at Zheng Biyu.

"You guys go."

With tears in his eyes, Zheng Biyu walked to Li Xuanzhen step by step and bowed to him.

"Then what should I do?"

Li Xuanzhen was holding the knife with neither anger nor hatred on her face, and calmly said: "My wife is enough for Zheng's prostitute. Yu Niang, I am not a good husband. If Yu Niang only asks for the respect of his wife. Rong, I promise to respect you and treat you kindly. I can't give you anything else. Since Yu Niang has love in her heart, she shouldn't wrong herself. I will take care of the next thing. Your father will not send someone to chase you down."

"I will let Qin Fei **** you away. You can go to Nanchu to avoid the limelight. In the future, I will marry another Zheng daughter. The Zheng family will still be prosperous."

Zheng Biyu whispered and sobbed, Zheng Wu was overjoyed, took her hand and led her away.

There is no worries, no chasing soldiers, no guilt that might entail the family... Everything Zheng Biyu is worried about will not happen, she can let go of all the burdens and leave with Zheng Wu.

But the moment she stepped out of the hospital, she stopped.

Zheng Wu stopped and looked down at her. The expressions on his face ranged from ecstasy, doubt to blankness, shock, anger, disappointment, and finally the heart was ashamed.

He knew Zheng Biyu too well. She was born a cold-hearted woman, sensible and restrained.

She is a daughter of a family, abandoning her identity and leaving with him, how will the two of them spend their lives in the future? How to face the world's guidance?

Married to Li Xuanzhen, she is the wife of the Li family's son, and she may become the prince princess in the future, and even her wife will become the mother of a country with her husband. How could she willingly give up all this for a humble servant?

Zheng Wu laughed mockingly, and lightly opened Zheng Biyu's hand.

"Holy and humble and orderly, don't overstep each other. The servants wishful thinking, hope Shizi and his wife will forgive their sins."

Zheng Biyu watched him disappear into the dark night, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, returned to Qinglu, and sat withered all night.

A few years later, Zheng Biyu accidentally heard a bad news, Zheng Wu died.

Zheng Biyu's face was expressionless, he gave a faint crow, and continued to talk and laugh with the woman during the dinner, and returned to the inner courtyard, holding his son and coaxing him to eat hot rice soup, with a smile still on his face.

She laughed all day until midnight, when she suddenly woke up from her dream and called out Zheng Wu's name.

A veil was handed to her, Li Xuanzhen looked at her, there was no sneer in her phoenix eyes, and said, "Yuniang, sorry."

Zheng Biyu burst into tears.

...

In front of the long bridge, willow smoke pulses.

Li Xuanzhen stood beside the horse and asked, "Yu Niang, have you regretted it?"

Zheng Biyu shook his head: "His Royal Highness, I have never regretted it."

She understands herself, even if she does it again, she will still make the same choice.

"Da Lang, I don't regret... But whenever I think of Zheng Wu, I feel as if there is a vacancy in my heart. No matter what I use to make up, I can't make up that vacancy."

Zheng Biyu looked at Li Xuanzhen and said sincerely: "I have no chance to make up for it, so no matter what you and Zhu Luyun have trouble with before, I still hope you can live with your beloved woman."

In the past few years, Li Xuanzhen was not bad to her. She was married second, and almost left with another man on the wedding night. He knew everything about her and understood that she was asking for glory, and he had never made fun of her and despised her.

She is grateful to him, pity him, she is sober and rational, her heart is already old, as long as the house is stable, she doesn't care about Yingyingyanyan beside him.

He still has a chance to toss about love, how wonderful it is!

"Da Lang, Princess Wen Zhao is still alive, you still have a chance to redeem your sins, recognize your own heart, don't blind your eyes because of hatred, people can't come back from death, don't leave regrets for yourself."

Li Xuanzhen was out of mind for a while and turned on her horse.

"Yuniang, I have refused to let Li Zhongqian go for years, and finally Ayue was forced to make a marriage. Why did she risk her death and send her soldiers to warn me?"

Zheng Biyu lifted his chin: "His Royal Highness thought that the seventh princess should hold grudges towards you and the entire court and sit and watch the Bei Rong attack Dawei. Do you want the entire Dawei and tens of thousands of people to be buried with you?"

She smiled.

"Your Highness, you look down on people too much."

Li Xuanzhen took the reins and said, "Yeah, I look down on people too much. I always tell myself that Li De is the emperor, he has his last resort, and the world is not unified yet. I can't kill him because of my personal vengeance, so I will first When you start with Li Zhongqian, A-niang has earned the position of the eldest son with her life, so no one wants to take it away."

He was silent for a long time, and the past of these years flashed through his mind one by one.

"Ayue gave me a chance...If I could calmly accept her kindness at that time, there would be no such things later."

He is too persistent.

"What is the difference between me and Li De?"

In troubled times, a good man, he does not want to revive the mountains and rivers, calm the troubled times, and save the people from the fire and water, because the mother's last wish is irrelevant and unclear. A Yue was forced to desperate, still able to decisively choose righteousness between personal enmity and righteousness. He had the ambition to end the troubled times, but he was narrow-minded and allowed his subordinates to conspiracy to calculate Zhongliang.

How can we sweep the world without sweeping a house?

He is trapped by the inner demons and is not worthy of being the crown prince of a country.

"Yuniang, you are a good mother." Li Xuanzhen kicked the horse's belly lightly, "Teach our son well, don't let him be like me."

Zheng Biyu nodded: "Don't worry."

The steed stepped away, and gradually moved away.

At this moment, thunderous horse hooves came from the direction of the city gate, smoke and dust rolled wildly, dozens of horses galloped in.

"His Royal Highness——"

Governor Pei, who was headed by him, yelled: "Stay!"

Li Xuanzhen did not look back.

Dudu Pei roared: "His Royal Highness, there is an order from the Holy Master. Your Highness will take a step forward and I will release the arrow when I wait!"

Li Xuanzhen still did not look back.

Kuaima rushed to the bridge, Governor Pei gritted his teeth, and said in a deep voice: "Let go!"

Jin Wuwei responded, bending the bow to draw the strings, and a sharp sound of breaking through the air continued, and the feathers and arrows were like a rain of locusts, covering Li Xuanzhen.

Li Xuanzhen rode his horse to the west, standing firm and lonely from behind.

Ayue is still alive, and he still has a chance to forgive her, no matter whether Ayue forgive him or not, he will save her.

The former Li Xuanzhen is dead.

Dudu Pei didn't dare to kill, so he could only watch Li Xuanzhen's figure disappear in the willow smoke and return to the palace.

"Holy, His Royal Highness is gone."

The sword wound on Li De's shoulder was not healed. Hearing this, he wowed, and a mouthful of blood came out.

Li Xuanzhen really said that he didn't want the position of the crown prince that Tang Ying had exchanged for his life.

His half-life's hard work was so wasteful!

Lonely family... Lonely family...

Li De looked at the bright red blood on the memorial, his hands trembled.

His most cherished son also abandoned him.

Cigarette curls before the imperial case.

...

Li Xuanzhen left Chang'an, rushed to the horse, eating and drinking on horseback, and rushed to Liangzhou as quickly as possible.

Local officials in Liangzhou were taken aback. Li Xuanzhen called the guards and deployed them one by one, and the generals took orders.

He changed a good horse, filled the water bag, took a few empty saddle horses ready to change, and embarked on the westbound road.

When the majestic Qilian Mountains appeared at the end of the sky, he put on a felt hat and a thick leather jacket, working day and night, and continued on his way.

The Bei Rong guards are strict, and Han Chinese are forbidden to enter the customs. Fortunately, he got a report from his own soldiers before he set off. He avoided the opponent’s sentry checkpoint along the way and entered the Helong area without any risk. When the other party cross-examined, he directly beheaded the opponent without saying a word, snatched the opponent's horse, and then quickly changed the direction.

The four fields are boundless, the wind is whistling, and there are no other colors in the world, as if he is the only one left.

On this day, he hadn't eaten for three days, tired, hungry, cold and thirsty. When he crossed the snow-covered mountains, he suddenly heard a sharp noise.

An iron arrow cut through the wind and snow and shot out.

Li Xuanzhen leaned back, avoided the iron arrow, and fell off the horse.

The steed was frightened, raised its front hoofs, and neighed loudly.

Several dark shadows sprang up from the snow, rushed to the front of the mountain road, and strangled the shocked horse. One of them walked up to Li Xuanzhen and slashed down with a sharp aura.

The turbulent hair on his face was blown away by the wind, and a pair of cold phoenix eyes.

Li Xuanzhen rolled away from the long knife and tore the mask off her face.

The other party recognized him and was taken aback for a moment. Then, the raging anger rose from his phoenix eyes, his arms were raised and his face was hideous.

Li Xuanzhen looked at the other party and did not make a counterattack: "Li Zhongqian, Mingyue Slave is still alive."

He has been sending people to follow Li Zhongqian, knowing that he was looking for Li Yaoying's body in this area, and he came to Helong to tell Li Zhongqian the news.

Hearing his sister's name, Li Zhongqian shook his whole body, abruptly stopped the long knife in his hand, Feng's eyes were angry, stepped forward, and grabbed Li Xuanzhen by the collar: "What did you say?"

His voice was hoarse, his eyes were blood red, and his eyes were gloomy, as if he was about to give birth to his flesh and blood.

"I didn't lie to you." Li Xuanzhen said word by word, "I swear by my life that she is still alive. When Yelu's tribe was destroyed, she was abducted by Haidu Aling. The news came from Beirong. , Absolutely true."

Li Zhongqian didn't say a word, his eyes were so red that he was about to bleed, and his hand holding Li Xuanzhen's collar rolled over with tremors.

He looked at the soldier next to him, acting strangely.

The soldier knelt to the ground, his voice trembled, and nodded at him: "Langjun, you are not dreaming! You are not crazy! The seventh princess is still alive!"

Li Zhongqian's blood-red eyes flashed a few gleams, "Mingyue Slave is still alive..."

These days he dreamed of Xiao Qi again and again, dreaming that she was lying on his knees acting like a baby, dreaming that she was happily stepping on her legs to learn to walk, dreaming that she woke up from a coma, saw his face, and opened his eyes. Guang: "Brother, you are still alive!"

He dreamed that she was sitting alone in a tent crying, surrounded by rude Yelu people. She was crying and calling his name, asking him to save her. He wanted to save her, but he couldn't move his body, so he could only watch her suffer.

Every time I wake up from a nightmare, there is only a gray wilderness in front of me.

Sometimes he dreamed of searching and searching by himself. After searching for her for a long time, he didn't find her. Suddenly someone patted him on the shoulder and chuckled, "The seventh princess is still alive? What are you looking for?"

Li Zhongqian in his dream was ecstatic, yes, he is so stupid, Xiao Qi is still alive!

After waking up, he leaned back in the cave dumbly, reminiscing about the dream just now.

How beautiful the dream is, how heart-piercing the moment I wake up.

Li Xuanzhen, who was thousands of miles away, suddenly appeared in front of him. He thought it was another bizarre dream.

The soldier knelt at his feet and told him this was not a dream.

Xiaoqi is still alive.

Li Zhongqian turned his head and looked directly at Li Xuanzhen, his phoenix eyes flashed with the cold light of cold and gloomy birds, the silver light flashed, and the long knife fell.

Li Xuanzhen flew backwards, avoiding the harsh knife.

"Mingyue Slave is in Beirong, Li Zhongqian, how can you save her from you? Even if you can save her from Beirong, how can you return to the Central Plains?"

He stood in the snow with a calm face.

"Without guide, without guidance, how long will it take you to find her? One year? Two years?"

"Li Zhongqian, my people are now in Beirong Yating. I have a way to reach Yizhou within two months. If you kill me, who will take you to rescue Mingyue slave?"

Li Zhongqian's pupils are wide.

Li Xuanzhen said, "The account between you and me will be clear for one day in the future. Now, I just want to rescue Mingyue Slave first."

Li Zhongqian took the long knife.

Nothing is more important than Xiao Qi's safety.

Xiao Qi, don't be afraid, wait for brother, brother to save you.
