Chapter 7
The stable was very high, and Ye Tianhui fell on the grass.
She recalled the pair of eyes she had just seen, the pair of eyes that were so familiar that they couldn't be more familiar.
At this moment, the change of dynasties, the changes in time and space, all disappeared at this moment.
There was only one thought in her mind, the saint was here, and he saw her.
This instantly brought her back to that moment, when she had been struggling for months in the siege of Minzhou, and she jumped on the Phoenix Mountain, wanting to leave herself a clean reputation with a broken body.
At this time, what was the emperor doing far away in Yanjing City?
The history book is just a girl who can be dressed up by anyone. Before she died, all she saw was Di Rong. Even if she swore to never surrender, who would know? At
this moment, she even thought about what would happen after her death. Those brave generals who had followed her for many years, and the merits of the Ye family who had been loyal to her for generations and stood firm for a hundred years, had they all turned to ashes under the majestic imperial power?
At this moment, footsteps were heard.
The footsteps on the stone slabs were clear, steady, and calm, just like the alternation of day and night, sober and regular.
This made Ye Tianhui feel suffocated, and she felt like she was about to be exposed to the scorching sun.
The footsteps stopped, and the surroundings became unusually quiet.
Ye Tianhui's consciousness slowly returned, and she looked ahead anxiously.
Next to the log-colored stable, in the rustling of the brick-red cattail grass, she saw a pair of sneakers, and further up, there were straight and slender thighs wrapped in jeans.
She looked up, trying to see the man's face.
But she couldn't see it clearly.
In the backlight, his tall figure was covered with a halo. She opened her eyes wide, but couldn't see his face clearly.
She opened her lips, wanting to make a sound, wanting to question him, but she couldn't make any sound at this moment.
At this moment, the man took a step and walked towards her.
Then she saw the pair of long legs wrapped in jeans, step by step.
He walked very slowly, and his sneakers stepped on the weeds and fallen leaves, making a slight rustling sound.
She thought, he must be it.
No one in this world can give her such a shock, only that person can, that is the supreme authority she has been taught since childhood.
At this moment, she heard a voice above her: "Are you here to deliver fodder?"
Ye Tianhui's brain froze for a moment.
His voice was clearly that of a saint, but what was he saying?
Then, she heard a laugh, clear and joyful, with a hint of teasing and ridicule.
He smiled and said, "What's wrong with you? The grass over there is soft and easy to step on?"
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to her: "Come over here."
Ye Tianhui looked at her hand for a long time, and then looked at the man again.
He walked closer to her, and then, as if magic had disappeared, the original halo disappeared.
In the lush autumn, she could clearly see his appearance.
He has high eyebrows and handsome facial lines. He looks like a saint, whether it is the depth of his eyebrows, the steepness of his nose, or the smile on his lips at this moment. He is so charming that he seems to make everything in the world dim.
But there seems to be a slight difference.
His short black hair is a modern style. He has removed the mysterious majesty of the ancient emperor's twelve crowns, but has a more casual and comfortable look. Moreover, the shirt and jeans make him approachable.
An autumn wind blew, and the branches and leaves were blown by the wind and collided with each other, making a rustling sound. The sparse light spots leaking from the branches and leaves and the gaps in the stables sprinkled on his face, making his pupils look like a fragment of sincere and kind light.
He was still smiling, smiling at herself.
Ye Tianhui pursed her lips, restrained her emotions, and finally reached out her hand tentatively.
When the man's hands held hers, she felt a warm power, with a little dryness and mellowness of grass.
The man's light gray shirt sleeves were half rolled up, and his arms were wheat-colored and looked very strong.
He pulled her gently, and she stood up.
After standing up, Ye Tianhui realized that this man was really tall.
She was considered tall and thin in the mainland, and she felt that she had a height advantage in Hong Kong, but in front of this man, she could only look at his lips at eye level.
She pursed her slightly dry lips again and asked tentatively: "Who are you?"
The man still had a friendly smile on his lips. He looked at her and said with a smile: "It seems that I recognized you wrongly. The horse farm supply department called me just now and said that they would send me some fresh hay. I heard the noise and came out. I thought you were here to deliver hay."
Ye Tianhui: "Oh..."
She looked at the stable, and then at the man's clothes in front of her. He was wearing a very casual gray shirt, not too particular. There were traces of whitening on his jeans.
She thought, this couldn't be him, after all, he was such a noble and particular person.
Of course, more importantly, if it was him, he would smile when he saw her, but that smile must have a meaning that she couldn't figure out. Then he said lightly, General Ye, I hope you are well.
How could he pretend not to know her? After all, he should know very well that even if the times have changed, even if the former dynasty has long since disappeared, as long as it is him, as long as he reveals her identity, he can easily hold her and make her still devote herself to him.
This was the mark of the entire family, the admonition of her father since childhood, and the mission she could never betray.
She breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
Very good, this is very good.
Whether this person is his reincarnation or not, as long as he doesn't remember, that's great, she can free herself from the shackles of the past.
So she made herself feel relaxed and spoke in a natural tone, "I am indeed an employee here, but I have only been here two days and am still getting familiar with my job."
Then, she looked around the stables with a puzzled look, "Excuse me, who are you? Are you in charge of the horses here?"
The man's dark eyes were filled with a gentle smile. He looked at her innocent and bewildered face and said with a smile, "You don't even know me?"
Ye Tianhui was very calm: "Oh? Are you famous?"
The man smiled and said, "My surname is Gu, and my given name is Shizhang."
Gu?
Saints are naturally not surnamed Gu, saints are surnamed Tian.
Ye Tianhui: "Then what? What do you do?"
The man raised his eyebrows and chuckled: "Shouldn't you tell me your name, otherwise it would be unfair."
His eyes scanned Ye Tianhui's clothes, and then said: "Otherwise I would mistake you for a wall-climbing villain."
Ye Tianhui's heart paused.
Under the seemingly gentle smile of this man, there is actually a sharp edge hidden, which must not be underestimated.
So she finally managed a smile: "Hello, Mr. Gu, I have just been here for two days and I am still in the familiarization stage. I don't know a lot of things, please bear with me."
Then, she looked into his dark eyes and smiled: "My last name is Ye."
She saw that when she said her last name, the man did not react in the slightest.
She continued: "My name is Ye Tianhui."
She spoke slowly because she wanted to clearly capture the man's reaction when he heard her name, but there was no reaction. There was a gentle smile in his eyes.
Gu Shizhang, who was standing by, still had a smile on his face and said in a gentle voice, "It's Miss Ye. I'm glad to meet you."
Ye Tianhui raised her eyes and said with a smile, "Actually, Mr. Gu, the reason why I reacted so strongly when I saw you just now was because you looked very familiar to me, like a friend of mine."
Gu Shizhang raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Really? What friend? He looks like me? Am I lucky enough to know him?"
Ye Tianhui looked into his eyes, "He is no longer alive."
Gu Shizhang shrugged with some regret, "That's a pity. He must be a very good friend of yours."
Ye Tianhui looked at his reaction and became more and more certain in her heart that it seemed that he was not.
So, she was a little disappointed, a little relieved, and of course more relaxed.
Gu Shizhang smiled at this time and said, "Did you want to see Chaoguang just now?"
Ye Tianhui: "Chaoguang?"
Gu Shizhang nodded: "I thought you saw it. The horse I just fed is called Chaoguang. It is a very good horse."
Ye Tianhui was interested: "Can I go and see it?"
A beautiful arc appeared on Gu Shizhang's lips. He smiled and looked around, then lowered his voice and said mysteriously: "Generally, you are not allowed to watch casually, but now that there is no one, you can watch secretly. I will take you in?"
Ye Tianhui: "Okay."
