(1/2)
I turned my head and watched a figure walk through the snow.
Although it was still far apart, I also felt that the figure was quite handsome, tall, wearing a heavy wind flare, and when I walked slowly over the snow, it also brought a chill of ice and snow.
When the man walked to the door, gently dusted the snow foam at the corner of his clothes, and then leaned over to bow to me, I was stunned.
Caiwei bent down and gently said in my ear: "Madam...Madam?"
“…!”
I suddenly woke up and Caiwei said softly: "The guest is asking you for your goodbye."
I turned my head and looked at the man standing at the door, slowly put the stove in my hand aside, stood up and walked to him, and he lowered his head and bowed: "Greetings to Madam."
"It's you?"
Caiwei was stunned for a moment.
And the man raised his head and a cold and handsome face that looked like an ice sculpture came into his eyes.
"Du Yan?"
"Mrs., long time no see."
I couldn't believe my eyes, but the man in front of me was indeed Du Yan. I finally came to my senses. Wu Yanqiu said that a group of people were going to retreat from the Imperial Guard. Although I had many speculations about his words, I didn't expect that Du Yan would be the one who came to me.
At this time, Caiwei came over and I hurriedly ordered: "Caiwei, bring hot tea to the guests immediately."
Perhaps because he realized that the person coming was not simple, Caiwei quickly turned around and went down, but before leaving, she looked at Du Yan again, and I had already made a gesture: "Come on, come in and sit, it's cold outside."
Du Yan walked into the side hall. His boots were covered with a lot of snow foam, and he took one step at a time. He thought it was so cold that he was so cold that he was fumigated by the heat in the hall. He felt a little red on his pale face, but his pupils were still as cold as ice and snow. When I was entertaining him to sit down, he said, "There is no place to sit down in front of my wife."
I frowned and said, "You are a guest today, so how can you let the guest stand? If you spread it, wouldn't you want others to say that I don't know etiquette?"
He paused for a moment, and without saying anything, he walked over and sat down with me.
I also sat down and looked at him like this. I felt a little moved and had a lot of things to say, but I didn't know what to say, because, after all, I am not a person who is too familiar with him, and there is even no old friends to tell me about. However, this way, it reminded me of many things from the past.
But when I looked at him so close, I suddenly realized that there was a scar on his left forehead.
I subconsciously said, "You are-"
When he met my gaze, he immediately understood and said calmly: "I was injured in Yangzhou, left behind."
"ah……"
I remember that when I was in Yangzhou, Wu Yanqiu said that in order to protect the sage, he was injured. At that time, he only said that there was nothing serious, but I didn't expect that he left a scar on his forehead.
This is considered a distortion.
I couldn't help but feel very regretful. After all, Du Yan's appearance is a rare masculine appearance. To be honest, regardless of his character and personal relationship, compared to Wen Fengxi's exquisite appearance of boys and girls, I prefer Du Yan's appearance, but I didn't expect...
I couldn't help but sigh.
However, although I felt very sorry, Du Yan seemed to care about it at all. Originally, men didn't care so much about their appearance. There was a scar. Du Yan was still Du Yan, who was just as serious as he was, and he was also as cold and straightforward as he was.
I asked, "By the way, Lord Wu said you are going to withdraw from the Imperial Guard. Why is this? Didn't you make a contribution in Yangzhou?"
Du Yan glanced at me and pointed at his forehead again: "In this way, you can't stay in the Imperial Guard."
"ah……"
I suddenly felt that I was a little bit like not to open the pot. Du Yan was injured on the storefront, which means he was disfigured. The Imperial Guard was the emperor's confidant guard and the emperor's storefront. He naturally couldn't stay in the palace like this, so it was no wonder he had to come out.
"and you--"
I was about to say something, but suddenly I remembered something. When I was in the Yang Mansion before, Yang Jinyao once said that his good brother was about to get married, and her good brother was Du Yan! I was immediately excited and looked up at him. Du Yan seemed to feel my eyes were a little hot, but he didn't say anything, but he was still looking at me calmly and indifferently.
I said, "I heard that you are about to get married?"
His eyes flashed: "It's done."
"Ah, so fast? Then, who is your bride?"
"It's water show."
I just felt my chest protruding, and my heart almost jumped out of my chest.
He is really going to get married, and the one he married is Shui Xiu!
I was surprised. For a moment, I didn't even know whether I was happy or sad. I just looked at him: "You, what are you-"
"I made a contribution in Yangzhou, so I asked the queen for her."
"She, she also-"
"She said that she doesn't dislike me."
I was stunned for a moment before I immediately felt relieved. Du Yan was talking about his broken appearance. He must have asked Shui Xiu. Shui Xiu said that she did not dislike Du Yan as a broken appearance.
...
For some reason, I suddenly felt a sense of sadness in my heart. Although from the beginning, I felt that Du Yan was one of the best destinations for Shui Xiu. Even if he broke his appearance, men didn’t have to care about these things. As long as he married Shui Xiu, he would definitely treat her wholeheartedly. All of this was recognized by me in the past.
But for some reason, at this moment, when I heard his simple words, I felt a faint feeling of sorrow.
Why did Shui Xiu agree to it for?
However, I immediately smiled and said, "Congratulations."
"Thank you."
"Why didn't she come here today?"
"It's snowy and cold, I didn't tell her that she was here for the wife." He said, accusing him of guilt: "My wife, please forgive me."
I smiled and said, "What's the matter? You are newlywed. As for me, I shouldn't have called you here."
"It's okay, you have to find something to do."
He was still so straightforward, which made me feel uncomfortable again. Although I had doubts before, whether to use Wu Yanqiu to introduce people, when I saw Du Yan, I didn’t have much doubts. After a while of talking to him, I decided to settle the matter. He reported the number of his brothers and explained some details clearly. I now have a lot of spare money and the salary I paid is high, so I quickly settled the matter.
He stood up and bowed to me: "Tomorrow, we will come."
"Okay." I stood up and said, "Take your wife too. I haven't seen her for a long time. I want to see her."
"yes."
He was still the same as before, without any delay in speaking and doing things, and he was about to leave. When he walked to the door, I couldn't help but call him: "Du Yan."
He turned around and looked at me.
"Can you tell me why you must marry Shui Xiu?"
“…”
"She has a bad temper and was very rude to you before. Could it be that it was because we went to the ferry hall together that time?"
Hearing my inquiry, he was not embarrassed or concealed, and said directly: "Before that time, I had been following her for a long time."
"oh?!"
I was shocked: "You are—"
He glanced at me and said calmly: "She has a bad temper, but many of hers have good tempers."
“…”
"There are not many people in the palace who will really accompany their wife to the cold palace except her."
“…”
I immediately understood.
What he said was that when I was convicted and was sent to the cold palace, only Ma Ma Wu and Shui Xiu were always with me. Even Xiaoyu, who had been with me before, left at that time. I understood what he said.
It is easy to be able to share blessings with others, but it is not so easy to share blessings with others.
It turned out that from that time on, he began to pay attention to Shui Xiu, but he never had the opportunity to get close to her. It was not until later that we went to the hall and he was sent to follow him, so he really had the opportunity to get to Shui Xiu.
However, Shui Xiu has always ignored him. Even because of Du Yan's taciturn personality and cold attitude, he spoke ill of him several times. Du Yan never minded it, and even gave Shui Xiu the chain she liked.
It turns out that everything has a long history.
I couldn't help but smile.
Maybe this sentence may not be nice, but he seems to be a little bit about Shui Xiu and Shui Xiu to him - he is doomed.

Early the next morning, Du Yan and his people came.
And I could see the familiar figure walking behind him at a glance, petite and delicate, but his face was particularly pale, the same color as the white snow around him.
As soon as she saw me, she rushed over and hugged me: "Girl!"
"Shuixiu..."
I was caught off guard and was almost pushed to the ground by her. Caiwei next to me hurriedly came over to help me. Seeing that I shook my head gently and retreated, I hugged her hard.
A warm wetness came from my chest and became cold in an instant.
After a while, I slowly picked up her face, crying with tears and tears, and I was still sobbing. I was also crying, but I was still smiling: "What's wrong? I'm so old, I'm still crying when I get married?"
Du Yan next to him kept guarding quietly. At this time, Caiwei seemed to know that I had something to say to the little woman in front of me, so she went over and negotiated with them. I turned around and walked to my room with Shui Xiu.
To be continued...
