Chapter 34: Homecoming

Li Jin's carriage finally began to move according to its normal trajectory again. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Li Jin, who was slowly leaning against the wall of the car, only then did he realize that he reacted in his mind, "Oh, it turns out that the person just now is Jing Yu who was going to trap himself to death during the banquet a few days ago." ’

When she first heard these two words, Li Jin only reflected the word trouble and her promise to Huaixi, but she forgot that she was framed by her.

Thinking of this, Li Jin also felt a little incredible, shaking his head and laughing at his big heart.

When he first heard Huaixi tell him this name, Li Jin knew it in his heart. Looking at that surname, it is a relative of the emperor and the country, and the relationship with the current Son of Heaven should not be far away. It's just that I didn't expect it to be the sister of the King of Huaiyang, so is Huaixi the King of Huaiyang? Maybe. But it is also possible that this county lord has many elder brothers, and Huaixi is just one of them, Li Jin thought aimlessly in his mind. And at the same time, I corrected my list in my mind.

Remembering that he will leave the capital in the new year, there should be no need to change his name, because he probably won't see him. After all, he and they are people from two worlds, and there is no chance to meet. A coincidence like today's, Li Jin feels that it should be unique.

Li Jin thought so, but it was not that there were any special feelings flowing, but just a simple sorting out of the general facts in his mind to form his general grasp of the current situation.

The sunlight outside the window passed through the car, sprinkling the mottled light on Li Jin's face, and Xiangxue had already lit the incense dedicated to Li Mansion and Li Jin's embroidery room in the car. The familiar smell and the softness in the overly comfortable car made Li Jin's nerves, which had been too tense, finally relaxed, and he felt drowsy.

At this time, Li Jin let the thoughts in his mind drift boundlessly.

For a moment, I remembered that the girl's expression was too vivid and rich just now. Li Jin didn't understand why she was so obsessed with privilege, whether it was her jealousy of the privilege she had, although it was a misunderstanding, or her pride in the privilege she had.

Li Jin still knew the general rules of the palace, and when she saw her service and the horses not far away, she naturally guessed that she was specially allowed to ride a horse in the palace.

It's just that this is just a special convenience in Li Jin's opinion, but the people around him are seeing this matter as a bigger, indescribable, and worthy of showing off. Not only this trivial matter, but also the royal relatives in the palace, the banquets and amusements of the dignitaries and nobles are not comparing all kinds of such things and things, which is also the deepest reason why Li Jin stays away from those places.

Li Jin had tried to understand it in his own way. Perhaps, it is different from oneself, the law of survival in another world, and people rely on this to show their strength, to intimidate the enemies around them, or to expand their power, or to ensure their own security.

Of course, some of them rely on real strength, some rely on bluffing, and some rely on forcible grabbing. But either way, they are thirsting for greater and stronger forces for their own use.

Just like the flowers and plants you plant, you are trying to occupy more land and more sunlight and water.

It's just that Li Jin feels that it is not the only world, and everyone who can walk in the sun should be able to find a world that is not like this.

Maybe it's really like the laughter and scolding of his parents, Li Jin is too naïve. In the previous days, Li Jin thought that he could take the initiative to avoid getting involved in such a world.

It's just that now in order to save her parents' family, Li Jin is also thirsting for greater strength, but a corner of her heart is telling Li Jin that it is different, but she is confused at this time What is the difference?

Thinking of this, Li Jin unconsciously laughed at himself in his heart, but no matter what, he has fallen into such a strange circle now, where can he find a different world?

Although he laughed at himself so sadly, Li Jin instinctively refused to give up the almost paranoid thoughts in his heart for some reason.

Such a world still exists, but before it appeared in front of him, a corner of Li Jin's heart called like this. I don't know if it's fortunate or unfortunate, but Li Jin can't help but let the voice stop.

Li Jin dispelled the boundless thoughts in his mind. He eased the excitement in his chest at some point, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he secretly said to himself, "I really have leisure and leisure, and I can still think of such an illusory thing at this time, and there are still things as high as a mountain in front of me that need to ......be solved urgently."

Retracting his scattered thoughts, Li Jin closed his eyes and seriously analyzed the situation he was in now.

According to Concubine Jing and the emperor, she had to take the initiative to ask to marry into the camp of the northern part of Jin, and the natural husband was the emperor who chose the most suitable candidate for his plans and ideas according to the distribution of power in his heart. You shouldn't have to worry about everything in the early stage, but when you think about your life after that, Li Jin is a little big.

You must know that it is easy to agree with the emperor to carry the banner, and Li Jin feels that he should be able to adapt to the border life after that, because he once longed for the manor life outside the capital, and he often went to Zhuangzi, so he was also selfish to let himself adapt more.

Li Jin knows very well that he has the name of sharing worries for the emperor, and he will not be embarrassed about firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea in his daily life, but what about life outside of that, what kind of person will his husband be?

Li Jin didn't think that he must be a brave and warlike general, and even if it was a small soldier, Li Jin felt that he had nothing unacceptable. It's just that the most important thing is that he knows the hopes of his parents, and the emperor has also promised himself that he and his husband will be recalled after the border situation is stable, will his parents accept such a person at that time?

Although most of the marriages in this dynasty are still the words of the matchmaker at the behest of their parents, not to mention the family of the prince, it is an official family like Li Jin, and most of the marriage parties are people who do not know each other. After all, there are still relatives who can have an understanding of each other in advance, but now Li Jin's situation is really like a gamble.

Although he understands that no matter how much he thinks about it now, Li Jin still can't help but pray secretly in his heart, hoping that no matter what kind of shortcomings the other party has, he must not be a person with defective character.

Thinking of this, Li Jin suddenly found that he didn't know how to persuade his parents to agree to such a ridiculous marriage.

Although Li Jin never regretted his decision, there was a feeling of fear in his heart at this time, how could his parents agree to something that he was so worried about, and how worried he should be even if he reluctantly agreed.

Li Jin suddenly felt like crying without tears, and wanted to know more and more why he chose himself in this matter.

Except for the accident halfway, Li Jin left the palace wall all the way unimpeded.

And this carriage has been carrying Li Jin to the Li Mansion so smoothly.

The location of the Li Mansion is through a bustling street market, although it is not as good as Chang'an's East Market, West Market and Chang'an Avenue, but it is also overcrowded. All kinds of shouting and shouting were endless, and Li Jin didn't know why, in the silent palace just now, he felt sleepy but couldn't sleep peacefully. At this time, such a noisy place actually made her eyes lose the strength to support her, and only for a moment, Li Jin closed her eyes and went to meet Zhou Gong.

The huge plane tree split the scorching light into countless warm spots under the autumn sun, and Li Jin ran happily for some reason.

Li Jin didn't know what he was looking for, he only knew the sunshine, the smell of sycamore leaves, and drinking tea under the porch in the distance to escape the heat, smiling at his parents, and filling his chest with warmth, which were his favorites. Everything is surrounded by the warm golden orange glow, and his small figure wanders in the mottled shade of the trees.

Little Xiangxue was also smiling and waving to herself in the distance, holding a bouquet of pale cyan double-petaled flowers picked from nowhere in one hand. The color of the petals is between white and cyan, and the tender yellow stamens stretch proudly in the wind, as if announcing their vitality, but the flower path is broken by Xiangxue at this time and held tightly in the hand.

Li Jin remembers that she has loved flowers since she was very young, so she also instructed Xiangxue when she was very young, if she likes flowers, plant them in the soil, and if you want to take them, take away their seeds or a small rhizome.

It's like borrowing its child, without harming its life. Although this is still a cruel thing, it may be a comfort to allow this plant to continue to live.

Looking at the broken flowers, Li Jin seemed to be angry. Running quickly towards Xiangxue, when she started, the little Xiangxue seemed to be aware and ran with Li Jin.

Gradually, the golden orange light around disappeared, and I don't know when it started, surrounded by thick darkness, and Xiangxue no longer seemed to be the same as when she was a child, but she still held that special flower in her hand, and kept running in front.

Li Jin felt that it was getting colder and colder, and when he saw that he was running barefoot on the snow under his feet, when he looked up, Xiangxue didn't know where he was going, Li Jin only knew that it was dangerous in front, so he was very worried about whether the vanished Xiangxue was in front, so he accelerated his running pace, and the wind and thin snow began to hang around him, Li Jin felt that the whole person was stiff.

The feeling of grievance and fear surrounded Li Jin for no reason, she felt that she could no longer run, Li Jin, who was holding her arms tightly, closed her eyes slightly, but still struggled to raise her steps and move forward. The surroundings were getting darker and darker, and the darkness seemed to be about to swallow Li Jin. At this moment, Li Jin heard Xiangxue's voice.

"Miss, Miss...... What's wrong with you?" The worried voice kept echoing in Li Jin's ears and brain, and Li Jin struggled to open his eyes, and Xiangxue's worried face was in front of him.

It turned out that he was dreaming, but Li Jin felt uncomfortable in his chest, as if he was still being clutched by the darkness.

Li Jin raised her hand to tidy up her sideburns, but the tentacles were slippery, and Li Jin stroked her cheeks to make her realize that she was crying in her dream. His face was almost soaked with tears.

Li Jin smiled: "It's okay, I'm just tired." Just go back and get a good night's sleep. But I guess I must be like a flower-faced cat now, just like you before me. ”

After waking up, Li Jin quickly returned to his usual appearance, and almost made fun of Xiangxue in every sentence.

It's just that at this time, Xiangxue doesn't seem to be in the mood to gag with Li Jin. I saw that her eyes were hazy, and it seemed that there would be water droplets coming out in the next moment.

Li Jin hurriedly raised his hand and said, "Stop, stop." You must be crying like this, and when you get home for a while, your mother can't hide anything when she sees your rabbit-like red eyes. Hurry up and bring the mirror, I will turn the world upside down when I go back like this, don't you want to eat well tonight? When I went out, my mother said that there was a four-gill perch in soup on willow leaves. ”

Xiangxue also knew that her appearance would not only not help Li Jin, but also likely to cause chaos, so she tried her best to control herself, and said with a smile: "Where am I so greedy, it's not that Miss has been secretly arguing for it." If it weren't for such a troublesome dish, how could Madame make it when she was so busy years ago?"

Who knew that he was used to saying what he was used to, but at this time, as soon as he opened his mouth, he poked the pain of the two of them, Li Jin smiled a little lonely: "Indeed, I am usually so ignorant." Thinking that she didn't know when she would be able to eat it after the New Year, Li Jin would almost lose control immediately, but fortunately, she was used to laughing, and the next moment she laughed at Xiangxue Dao.

"Well, that's what you said, you won't be allowed to eat a bite for a while. ”

Xiangxue deliberately puffed out her cheeks and said, "Who said I don't eat it, hum." ”

Xiangxue found the dresser in the carriage and cleaned up the two, Li Jin and Xiangxue tried to find the previous feeling, but fortunately, the time left for them was enough, and when they got home, the two finally returned to their usual appearance.

When getting off the car, Xiangxue pretended to send the carriage that was usually taken care of on the street, paid off the money and helped Li Jin get out of the car and enter the corner gate.

At this time, Wu'er, the little maid in the house, opened the door and saw Xiangxue and Li Jin jumping up almost unhappily.

"It's okay to wait for Miss to come back, and Mrs. also said that she would send someone to find Miss, saying that the adults are back, Miss is not crazy, and the adults will come back much earlier than Miss today. In the last sentence, Wu'er deliberately lowered his voice and prepared Li Jin in advance.

Li Jin saw everything she was familiar with, and her heart was sour and unbearable, but it was as sweet as eating honey that made her dizzy. Trying to maintain calm, Li Jin nodded and smiled: "Okay, got it." ”

Sure enough, Mrs. Li, who got the news in the inner courtyard, had rushed to the second gate at this time, and saw Li Jin standing in the afterglow of the sunset, and she couldn't say a word of complaining and teaching a lesson, so she only came to pull Li Jin and whispered silently: "You kid, I don't know if I let you out, I don't know how to come back, go into the house quickly, your father has a leave today." It just so happens that tonight is four-gill perch in willow leaf soup, your two favorite food. ”

At the end, the corners of Mrs. Li's mouth were irrepressibly slightly curled, which was the appearance of happiness naturally overflowing.
