The day before the Spring Festival, the weather suddenly improved, there was no cloud in the blue sky, and the sun that had not been seen for a long time hung red in the sky. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Seeing that the weather was good, Xiao Baoer deliberately changed into a dark red brocade dress, a white lamb's wool shoulder, and her long black hair was combed into braids and coiled behind her head, lying comfortably in the patio to bask in the sun.

Speaking of combing her hair, Yao Xitong taught her to braid her hair when her heart was broken, and she began to make a mess, Yao Xitong couldn't stand it and would always help to re-knit it. After a long time, Yao Xitong didn't bother to care about her, and let her sway around with her messy hair. It's a good thing, she still knows how to lose face, and after studying hard for a few days, she can finally comb her hair obediently to the back of her head.

Although it is not very delicate, it is already very good for someone like her, who has never combed her hair since she was a child.

Hearing someone knocking on the door, she shouted Uncle He's name loudly, and the people who used to arrive as soon as they shouted in the past don't know where they have gone now. She got up and opened the door, saw Gao Mian standing outside the door, and asked in surprise: "Second son, what wind blew you here?"

"I heard that you were injured, so I came to take a look. ”

There are a lot of short messages, and someone is spying on Yao's mansion, so Gao Mian knows that she is injured. As for who assigned the people to monitor Yao's Mansion, maybe it was Gao Mian's, maybe it was Gao Wenyun, maybe it was Gao Han's, who knows!

"A few days ago, I went to hunt bears, and I was scratched, and I was almost well. ”

Gao Mian smiled slightly, "It is often said that the Northern Liao men are the first to hunt, and now they know that the Northern Liao girls are not allowed to shave their eyebrows." After the beginning of spring, I want to compete with the princess in hunting skills, I wonder if there is such an honor?"

"Yes, yes, I like hunting the most. Seeing that Gao Mian was still standing outside the door, Xiao Bao'er finally said, "Come in, I don't know where the servants in the house have gone." ”

Gao Mian didn't come empty-handed, he carried a burden and handed it to Xiao Bao'er casually, "Ming'er is the Spring Festival, prepare a little gift, I hope the princess likes it." ”

Xiao Bao'er opened it and saw that it was a black splendid coat, and the fur used for piping was very beautiful, at first glance it was black, and it was vaguely silver-white when it was blown by the wind. The alternation of the two colors is extremely rare. She didn't hide her surprise and asked, "What kind of animal is this?"

"Blue Frost Fox. ”

"I know the Blue Fox, but I don't know what the Blue Frost Fox is?"

Gao Mian smiled and said, "I keep small animals to play in my spare time, if the princess likes to take you to see them another day." Seeing that he refused to elaborate, Xiao Bao'er was not reluctant, pointed to the stone bench in the patio and said, "Sit, I'll pour you tea." ”

Gao Mian looked around, the house was not big, and the layout was quite exquisite, but as far as Xiao Baoer's identity was concerned, it was still a little shabby.

There is a small red copper stove on the stone table, and a pot of fruit tea is boiling on the stove, and the enticing aroma of fruit wafts away with the steam. Seeing that Xiao Bao'er was really going to carry a pot and pour tea, he hurriedly said: "Don't dare to bother the princess, just do it yourself." ”

"Recently, I have drunk too much decoction, this tea is a little sweet, if the second son doesn't like it, I will change the tea for you." ”

"Mian grew up in the army since he was a child, often practiced with the soldiers, and was not very particular about food, and it was very good to be able to drink a pot of hot tea in this weather. ”

Xiao Bao'er didn't speak, quietly looking at an unknown big tree outside the courtyard, the branches and leaves of the tree were falling off, and a magpie was jumping around on the branches. She wondered how the magpie should be eaten? Chop and stir-fry, will it have the taste of stir-fried rice pepper?

Gao Mian learned Xiao Bao'er's appearance to be deep, but after a cup of tea, he couldn't put it down. Growing up in Chendi since childhood, the opponent is a Gao Han, and he has not been trained in the palace, so his acting skills are naturally not as good as Xiao Baoer.

He stood up and stretched his legs casually, seeing that Xiao Bao'er was still leaning on the recliner in a daze, he didn't care about the purpose of his trip at all, and couldn't help but bend down and say, "Please princess help!"

"This is Chen Di, the second son asked me for help?"

"Princess, don't you know, my father and eldest brother went to Dadu together, but my father left on his own in the middle of the road, and now he is missing, and he is very worried about the princess. ”

Xiao Bao'er held back her smile and continued to pretend to be deep. The Central Plains man is very particular about speaking, but his father was lost, but he came to a stranger and said: I am worried about you because my father has lost ......

Seeing that Xiao Bao'er was still unmoved, Gao Mian really didn't bother to pay attention to the art of talking to her, and said directly: "Before my father left, I asked me to lead troops to the Xiangjiang Valley to thoroughly investigate the dragon scales. Secretly, he asked me to monitor Zhongling County, and once I found out that the princess had left Great Xia and went to Northern Liao, she would be killed on the spot. ”

Xiao Bao'er finally spoke, she put down the teacup used to warm her hands, and asked in a relaxed tone, "Second son is joking, right?"

"Princess, do you know that there has been a change in the court?"

"I don't know, everyone was fine when I left. Can the second son elaborate?"

A rhetorical question choked Gao Mian and didn't know how to answer, but the person who was talking was trapped, which felt terrible.

Mian just guessed that his father had been very abnormal in recent days, and what he ordered Mian to do was even more incredible. Great Xia and Northern Liao have been at war for many years, even if the princess returns to Northern Liao, my father should not say that kind of order, I am worried that my father will cause a war between the two countries because of his selfishness. ”

This reason is fresh, what selfishness does Gao Wenyu have?

According to Gao Mian, when Gao Wenyu was not the lord of Chen, there was a skirmish between Northern Liao and Great Xia. The herdsmen of Northern Liao went to the border between the two countries to graze, and the guards of Great Xia killed those people, and the king of Northern Liao was unhappy and led his troops into Great Xia.

The military situation was reported to the imperial court, and the main battle faction and the main peace faction argued endlessly every day, and the first emperor watched from the wall, completely ignoring the urgency of the military situation in Chen Di. In desperation, Lao Chen sent Gao Wenyu to meet the battle, and also sent Gao Han's uncle, an old general who had led the army for many years, as a deputy general to ensure Gao Wenyun's safety.

Gao Wenyu was young and frivolous, thinking that he was good at martial arts, and led his troops directly into the front of the battle without talking about tactics. The king of Northern Liao rarely saw that the Xia people had such a brave and fearless general, and he personally faced the battle, and knocked Gao Wenyu off his horse with one move. If it weren't for Gao Han's uncle who raised the white flag and surrendered in time, Gao Wenyu would definitely be beheaded by the king of Northern Liao.

The Xia army withdrew, Northern Liao pursued closely, and Gao Han's uncle sacrificed himself to break off, allowing Gao Wenyu to escape back to Chen in time.

Xiao Bao'er pouted, Gao Wenyu couldn't afford to lose for a long time, and wanted to be ashamed through the war.

"I don't like war, I can't stand the people living in the war, so I came here today to inform the princess about it......"

Xiao Bao'er interrupted Gao Mian, "Second son, don't worry, I'm not going anywhere, I'll stay in Zhongling, and try not to cause trouble for you." ”

Gao Mian smiled very embarrassedly, Xiao Bao'er's reaction was completely different from what he thought before, and he didn't know how to answer.
