Chapter 63: Greeting
"I don't understand what you're saying!"
Xiao Jinhan smiled: "I said, if you want to go to the palace banquet on August 15, I can take you there." β
Mu Zhifu looked at him, but she still couldn't see his emotions, it was too calm......
Suddenly thinking of something, she raised her eyebrows: "I'm afraid that you will climb my bed again!"
Xiao Jinhan was stunned for a moment, and then laughed. Yes, something happened at the last palace banquet......
He laughed a lot, and Song Yunjie and a few people looked at it.
Senior Brother raised his eyebrows: "What are you laughing at?"
The prince was a little shy: "Little junior sister teased me." β
"......" Mu Zhifu rolled her eyes with disgust: "Who is teasing you?
......
On the day they came out of Kangning Town, the group walked until it was dark, and only then did they arrive at Xingcheng, the second big city in the south of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
The city lord of Xingcheng had been waiting for a long time, and he received them with all his heart.
Before dawn, a group of men and horses hit the road again. Two days later, at nightfall, we arrived at Pingnan Town, which was a hundred miles away from Ningyuan City.
Outside Pingnan Town, a strong cavalry can be seen in the distance. The dark silver armor looms in the night, giving it a sense of danger and not to be ignored.
The scouts had already reported that it was the eight hundred tiger and leopard cavalry of the Zhennan Army, led by Jiang Li, the granddaughter of General Huwei, who came to greet the eldest prince.
Pingnan Town is the farthest distance that the Zhennan Army can meet. No matter how far it goes, it can be punished according to military law.
After walking in, the woman led by Mu Zhifu couldn't help but look at it twice.
This person is not good-looking, but he is delicate and clean, with indescribable perseverance and courage on his face, and his heroic posture is cool. People can't help but praise it, it's really a tiger girl!
But she gave people a completely different feeling from Xie Nianqing. Xie Nianqing is slender and heroic. But this woman is petite and heroic...... With a hint of unkindness! Mu Zhifu didn't know if this was her own delusion.
And this leading woman is Jiang Li, Xie Nianjun's fiancΓ©e.
Jiang Li led everyone to kneel on one knee and gave a military salute to Song Yunjie: "Courtier Jiang Li, come to greet His Highness on behalf of my grandfather, and greet His Highness!"
Song Yunjie walked in front of everyone and said lightly: "Get up." This palace came this time, and his identity was a disciple of Lingshan. You don't have to be formal. β
"Yes!" Jiang Li got up and continued to explain: "Grandfather really wants to greet him in person, but the border pass cannot be without a general for a day, and I ask His Highness to forgive him!"
"It's okay, the old general is doing a good job. β
Song Yunjie didn't mean to speak again, turned sideways to give up his position to Xie Nianjun, and returned to Lingshan among the others.
Xie Nianjun understood, and stepped forward to talk to Jiang Li. After some greetings, we discussed the future itinerary.
Both of them look businesslike, and they can't see any personal feelings at all.
Mu Zhifu looked at the two and pulled the corners of her mouth. Relationships and marriage are really confusing.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Jinhan asked again.
It's just that this time, Lingshan and a few people are very close. With the ears of those three people, no matter how small the voice is, it can be heard.
Mu Zhifu raised her eyebrows: "You say, is there any relationship between the two of them?"
Song Yunjie and Xu Changan were stunned. Especially Song Yunjie, as if he had heard some joke, looked at this little junior sister playfully.
Xu Changan also looked at her a little embarrassed, and stopped talking. In the end, he didn't say anything and lowered his head.
The senior brother leaned over and stretched out his hand to rub the little junior sister's head. His eyes swept over the other three, and he said softly: "I heard that their royal family will not consider feelings. β
She grew up in the Xichu Imperial Palace, which she learned from a young age. All marriage can ask for is power and wealth, and at most a good death. If you want to seek affection in the combination of interests, you will not even know how to die in the end.
It's like before her, she was pointed out by her father to Liang and her relatives. What she asked for was help and support for her brother-in-law. And Xuanyuan did his best to add so much dowry to her, just hoping that she would be treated well......
Is she overthinking...... Maybe it's because of that 21st century dream, she still thinks about the freedom of marriage and love. But thinking about it again, even if it is the freedom of marriage and love in a dream, most people marry with a purpose. Therefore, she has never been married in the dream.
Mu Zhifu couldn't hide her loss and lowered her head, she missed her brother very much at the moment, and felt that nothing was as solid as family affection.
A crisp sound came from overhead, and Xiao Jinhan struck Song Yunzhou's "salty pig hand" fiercely.
A cold and charming voice came from my ears: "Don't listen to his nonsense! If you are unlucky enough to see it, you don't believe that there really exists in the world, that is called ignorance! If you don't talk about it, just talk about what is in front of you." The head of the Xie family and his wife are also married, aren't they better than anyone else? Look at Song Yunzhou's stupidity, if the royal family has no true feelings, do you think he can live today? Besides, the two of us ......?"
"Get out!" Mu Zhifu fried her hair, and even forgot about her sadness. "What the hell do you two do?!"
Another thought, "No! Who is 'us' with you?!" and punched him back.
This punch, the action was a little bigger, and everyone's attention fell on the two people. No one saw it, Song Yunjie frowned slightly after listening to Xiao Jinhan's words.
When everyone arrived at Pingnan Town, it was already dark, and they naturally couldn't hurry tonight.
Jiang Li had already prepared a place for the group and set up a tent on the south side of the town. Food, drink, and hot water were also prepared in advance, and they were very thorough.
Xie Nianjun and his entourage, plus the tiger and leopard riders who came to greet them, there were only two women inside and outside - Mu Zhifu and Jiang Li.
When you are away from home, there is a shortage of accommodation. Mu Zhifu thought that she would be arranged to live with Jiang Li, but she didn't want to.
Uh, is she disliked? When the camp tent is limited, she arranged a room for herself! She doesn't care, she lives more comfortably.
It's the dead of night, at midnight. Fu You suddenly opened his eyes vigilantly, and two figures flashed outside the tent.
Boom! A small pebble hit the tent with a very soft sound. Mu Zhifu's fingers moved slightly, and the dagger fell into her hand.
The curtain was gently lifted, and someone cautiously walked into the tent without making a sound. But in the next second, Mu Zhifu turned over and pressed him on the bed, and the ice dagger wiped it off his neck without hesitation.
At the last moment, another figure flashed quickly, stopped her movements, and whispered, "Don't!
The masked man who was pressed on the bed also pressed against Mu Zhifu's hand holding the knife, and his voice was anxious: "Little junior sister, it's me!
Mu Zhifu hurriedly stood up and helped him up. She knew that Xu Changan's neck had been cut by her......
She whispered while taking the medicine: "What are you doing here? You don't sleep in the middle of the night, and you run into my tent dressed like this, aren't you ...... looking for death?"
