CHAPTER XLV

Early morning. Outside the gate of the capital.

"When you return triumphantly, I will lead the ministers to greet you here!" Lei Xiao patted Lei Yao's shoulder trustingly.

"The minister will live up to His Majesty's trust. Lei Yao clenched his fists with both hands and said with confidence.

"In addition, I will take care of the affairs of Prince Gong's Mansion, so you just have to rest assured that you will kill the enemy. Lei Xiao held his hand and whispered. Dressed in armor, Lei Yao reminded him of his younger brother when he was a child, always so determined, full of infinite courage.

"Brother Xie. Lei Yao nodded.

"Let's go. Lei Xiao was in the morning light, watching Lei Yao gradually move away, and the dust raised by the march of the army filled his slightly sad mood.

"You said that Prince Gong went on an expedition?" Xiyan didn't put down his chopsticks, but his movements were much slower, "Where to go?"

"I heard that it is the Zhou Kingdom in the north. "Yuexiang went to get lunch, listened to the gossip inside and outside the palace by the way, and came back to tell Xiyan.

"When did you leave?" Xiyan shook and shook on the plate, and didn't pick up a single shredded vegetable for a long time.

"Today. Yuexiang replied, picking out the ginger pieces on the plate by the way. "Are you worried about Princess Gong?" Yuexiang looked at Xiyan and asked obediently.

"Yes. Xiyan finally put down her chopsticks. A cloud of sorrow gathered between his eyebrows. My sister's feelings for the prince are deeply terrifying, she can live for him and die for him, she gave all her joys, sorrows and sorrows to this man. She couldn't imagine how her sister would spend the long time after the prince's long journey.

Concubine Li has been in a good mood lately. Lei Xiao stayed with her for a few nights. Her boldness and unrestrainedness allowed Lei Xiao to spend a few flavorful nights. In contrast, Concubine Shu, who is not angry, is not so lucky, Lei Xiao has been in neither the mood to talk about lyrics nor listen to music recently, so he went to her to take a look at her, and left with formulaic questions.

Concubine Li was outside the Xiyan Gate, straightened her clothes again, gathered her hair, looked left and right on the small bronze mirror, and felt that there was nothing wrong, so she lifted her feet and went in. She didn't want to be beaten by a patient.

When she entered, Xiyan was leaning on the couch in a daze. Seeing Concubine Li coming, Xiyan sat up and took her clothes casually.

"Is Concubine Niangniang better?" Concubine Li asked with concern, looking at her complexion, she should be getting better, if she can continue to get sick, wouldn't it be better. She said with her mouth on her lips, thinking to herself.

"Much better. Xiyan smiled.

"You have to take good care of your health, or the king will be sad even when he falls asleep at night. Concubine Li took a sip of tea and wiped the water stains on the side of her mouth.

"Really?" Xiyan looked at her with interest, daring to show off.

"yes. Concubine Li said shyly, "You don't have to worry too much, the king has been much better recently, and he has slept well." ”

"That's good. Xiyan smiled and said, "I have you to thank you." ”

"Mother, it's time for you to drink medicine. "The Autumn Oriole came in from the side. Concubine Li's favor, now everyone in the palace knows about it, she is proud all day long, and now she is here to show off. Qiu Ying frowned, and found that Xiyan didn't care at all.

"Good. Xiyan took the medicine and drank it with his head up. It's bitter. Her eyebrows furrowed. Looks like a cheeky non-cheeky appearance, Concubine Li looked at it from the side, and was a little stunned.

"Are you better?" asked Lei Xiao, who was sitting far away. Because she was sick, she wore a plain gown, her hair was so scattered, she looked thin and weak, and people couldn't help but want to protect it.

"Much better. She replied respectfully.

"Prince Gong's expedition, you must have heard about it. He looked at Xiyan and nodded, and then continued, "I have already issued an order to allow Princess Gong to enter the palace on the festival and celebrate the festival with you." ”

"Really? Thank you, Your Majesty. Xiyan knelt down in surprise and thanked him.

"Okay, okay, you're still sick, get up quickly. He didn't want to talk to her all day.

"If you really want to thank me, hurry up. When the time comes, I'll let you thank you enough. He smiled wickedly, missing the smell of her, missing every moment of being with her.

The sunset was embarrassed. Lei Xiao stood up, "I'm gone." ”

"Greetings to Your Majesty. Xiyan whispered.

Lei Xiao walked past her with a smile. I went to the Lifei Palace.

"The king is not coming, are you lonely?" Yan Tianmu sat opposite Xiyan unceremoniously, watching her stare at a messy piece of paper in a daze.

"It's very lonely. Xiyan was thinking about things, so she responded to him casually.

"And now?" Yan Tianmu moved to her side, looking at her from a fist distance.

"Don't get so close. Xiyan pouted, grabbed the paper on the table, and sat down across from him to look at it. Her appearance is clearly a little woman who is coquettish to her lover, and she is full of coquettishness. His heart sank.

"You're seducing me. There was a beating flame in Yan Tianmu's dark eyes. Her face glowed softly in the candlelight, and her eyes were hazy, seducing him.

"Stop talking crazy. Xiyan held her cheeks and raised her eyes to look at him. She was a little distressed, why she still couldn't remember. "You go, I don't have time to pay attention to you. Listening to the cold words, it entered his ears, and it seemed that she was coquettish.

"I'm not leaving. He stood up, pulled her up, and hugged her hard.

"Let go. Xiyan frowned, "You're crazy." ”

"It's not the first time we've been like this," Yan Tianmu obeyed his heart's desire, he wanted to hold her and never let her run away again. "You forgot that you promised to marry me. ”

"Please. Xiyan lowered his head and put his hands against his chest, "Let go." ”

"Ask me as I should be. Yan Tianmu put her lips to her ear, feeling the tremor coming from her little ear.

Xiyan bit her lip, paused for a moment, brewed her emotions and then she looked at him, "Please, let me go, okay?" I can't breathe. Her sweet smile, honey-like coquettishness, and the charm of her eyes, he restrained his urge to kiss hard, closed his eyes, smiled, and let go, "This time spare you." ”

Xiyan didn't rush away, but the expression on his face disappeared in an instant. She looked at Yan Tianmu indifferently, "You go quickly, being seen, we don't have any good fruit to eat." ”

"No one will see it except the dead. Yan Tianmu said coldly. "You don't have to worry. ”

Xi Yan's heart trembled, he had never shown such an expression, ruthless like a butcher.

"As long as it doesn't affect me, I don't care. "She's a little angry.

"You know what, every time you talk to me so coldly, I want to gag your mouth," Yan Tianmu hooked her face, "In such a beautiful lip, only a beautiful sound should come out." ”

Xiyan was forced to face him, but stubbornly looked away.
