His eyes were a little surprised, and he looked at the silver knife, the hand holding the knife was trembling slightly, but his lips were pursed, and he slowly spoke: "The general is self-respecting." ”

He smiled, raised his head and put his neck closer to the knife, Chonglan was startled, subconsciously took a few steps back, and the smile on his lips deepened: "Look, you don't dare at all." What's the use of holding a knife? ”

Chonglan's wrist flicked, and he grabbed it and brought it to his side: "You are so obedient, you know that it is useless, why do you have to embarrass yourself so much?" ”

She put the knife in her hand against the back of his hand, and said indifferently: "The general, as a child of the clan, openly molests the people's daughters, isn't he afraid that the emperor will punish you?" She gradually gained some confidence in her heart, and raised her voice and said: "Believe it or not, as long as I shout here, when the time comes, I will bring the inner servants and Jinyi Guard, even the king of Pingle County will not be able to protect you!" ”

He didn't care at all: "Then you shout, it's best to let everyone know that I have despised you, and then ask the Holy Decree to give you and me a marriage." Ignoring her resistance, he stroked her cold cheeks: "Look, Ah Lan, I'm a man, you're a woman, and when you encounter this kind of thing, it's always you who suffers." ”

Chonglan's hand holding the knife tightened, and he raised his hand to take it down: "Girl, don't take this, be careful of hurting yourself." Unexpectedly, she suddenly used force, and the tip of the knife pierced the back of his hand, and blood gushed out.

He didn't seem to expect her to really dare to make a move, he was stunned for a moment, pressed and stopped the bleeding without care, and looked at her playfully: "My Ah Lan is really different from when I was a child, you used to faint when you saw blood." ”

Chonglan was uncomfortable, shook off his hand and turned around to run, was forcibly held in his arms, regardless of the wound on his hand, leaned over and kissed her pink cheek carefully, and lingered on that smooth forehead, the smell that he hadn't seen for a long time made him almost indulge.

She was almost crazy, and she could barely bear the feeling of disgust, and pushed him away hard, and scolded loudly: "Brute, let me go!" I asked myself if I never provoked you since I was a child, why did you always pester me, you were when I was a child... You're a beast! ”

He looked at her with a smile and almost hysterical scolding: "It's because you didn't come to provoke me that I came to provoke you." He suddenly lowered his eyes, and his face became gloomy: "Aren't you very happy when that surnamed Yan provokes you, why can't you come to me alone?" ”

Chonglan was stunned, and the hand in his sleeve tightened: "I don't understand what you're saying." ”

He stared into her eyes and smiled beautifully: "It doesn't matter if you understand it or not, you just need to marry me obediently." He raised his hand to help her pinch the broken hair dangling from her sideburns: "Little villain, don't have other ideas, otherwise it will make a mess and it won't end." ”

She shoved him away and staggered back to her room, his gaze fixed on her until she was still standing out of sight.

He remembered that the first time he saw Chonglan was also in the summer, she got lost in the county king's mansion, and was pulled by the mean mother-in-law in the mansion to ask, and her white and tender little face was full of uneasiness.

He felt like there was a string in his heart, and he was plucked a few times, he took her back to his yard, helped her clean her hands and face, and deliberately teased her with snacks: "Call Brother and let you eat." ”

Chonglan looked at him with his mouth wide open, and hesitantly called "cousin", which was not what he wanted to hear, and he said, "Kiss me and take you to see your mother." ”

She frowned slightly, her eyes looked around in panic, and just as the mother-in-law beside the second lady came to look for her, she took her mother-in-law's hand and ran away in a hurry.

The same panic as now. He slowly lowered the corners of his mouth, not allowing her to escape again this time.

She went back to the room like a prostration, and after entering the house, she felt that her legs were weak, Qingge and Qingyun hurriedly came over to hug her, and exclaimed, "Girl, what's wrong with you?" ”

Chonglan didn't need to look in the mirror to know that her face was ugly, but it was useless to tell the two maids about this, so she just waved her hand and said, "I'm fine, you guys go down first." ”

Qingyun and Qingge glanced at each other, bowed down and walked down. Chonglan lay on the table and let out a long sigh, as a young unmarried girl, even if she didn't give a clear response to the overtures of the opposite sex, she wouldn't be so disgusted, but now that she thought of Jiang Yi, she was disgusted for a while, and she was physically and mentally repulsed.

She was upset with her arms on her side, and there was a gentle snap on the side of the cold window, she was startled, hesitated and didn't dare to open the window, and the people outside the window seemed to understand her intentions, knocked a few times in an orderly manner, and then said slowly: "It's me." ”

Chonglan was stunned, and before his mind could turn around, his body had already walked over to open the door for him, and then said strangely in the house: "Why are you here?" He stomped his feet again and said, "Come and don't say a word, I'm scared to death." ”

It is rare for her to show such a coquettish attitude, and she has a different style, which makes Yan He's heart crispy. He laughed, his eyes lit up: "I miss you, come and see you." ”

Chonglan paused, and then said speechlessly: "I think you are too idle, we haven't seen each other for less than three days, what is there to think about." ”

He doesn't know what's wrong with him now, like a teenager who can't suppress his thoughts, he wants to be closer to her every day.

He stretched out a white hand and held her hand on the edge of the window, and Yingying threw an eye wave: "This should ask you, what method did you use, so that I can't contain what I think about when I don't see you for a while, sometimes I feel very happy just to hear your name." ”

He stared at her with affection, but his tone was a little lingering and resentful: "I sometimes think, why do you care so much about you, but you tell me, what kind of curse did you put on me?" Kindness? ”

Yan He actually threw a flattering look at her, she must have seen it wrong. She paused for a long time before she recovered from the shock, changed her usual sharp teeth, and said, "I didn't..."

He grabbed her hand and slammed it hard, making her lean out half of her body into his arms, and his tone was firm: "You have." ”

He rubbed the soft skin between her neck, plausibly slid over her earlobe, and bit it: "The most hateful thing is that after you cast a curse, you opened your hand, ignored people, and didn't want to take any responsibility, how should I punish you?" ”

Originally, he felt that he would never say anything in his life, but now he said it very willingly, as if he was willing to be trapped by her.

Chonglan's face was flushed, just when there was rolling thunder in the sky, she was busy pushing him away, and the person shrank back into the house and was about to close the window: "Go back quickly, be careful not to catch a cold in the rain." ”

He lowered his head and chewed these words carefully for a while, his face still wanted to maintain his usual indifference, but he couldn't suppress the joy in his eyes: "Are you caring about me?" ”

Chonglan saw that the sun was dark, and the sun that was originally hanging in the sky was gone, so she hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Yes, yes, my lord, go back quickly." ”

The corners of Yan He's raised mouth flattened, and he repeated slowly: "My lord? That's what you call me? ”

Chonglan said casually: "Yes, is there something wrong?" Hurry back, sir. ”

She said that she was about to close the window, but he blocked it with one hand, and he thought that only he was the only one who had clearly confessed from beginning to end, but he smiled at her: "Call Brother Jinnian and I'll go back." ”

Chonglan was stunned, and then remembered that Jin Nian was his little character, and he looked like a scoundrel and a bully, and she said embarrassedly: "My lord..."

He turned his head to look at her, and slowly narrowed his eyes: "Don't want to?" ”

She showed him a chill down her spine, and shouted awkwardly: "Jin Nian... Brother. ”

He seemed to be satisfied, and at this time the thunder on the horizon sounded one after another, and it became more and more intense, and finally the torrential rain fell down in ten thousand acres, and instantly drenched him.

She was a little gloating, let him leave early, he didn't leave, stayed here and slammed, and now it's raining, right? Should!

But the beauty is a beauty in the end, and she doesn't look embarrassed when she is soaked, a few strands of broken hair in the hair crown hang low, soaked and stuck to the side of the jade white face, looking forward to it, there is a hazy and ambiguous beauty through the rain and fog, and the royal blue silk is directly attached to the body, outlining the long and straight body.

The beauty was soaked and salivating, she was full of eyes, her eyes were a little straight, and she coughed uncomfortably: "I reminded you, you are the one who insisted on not leaving." ”

He didn't expect the rain to fall, frowning and looking down at the water on his body, just a few raindrops slid into the collar along his action, and entered the depths of even more reverie.

Not only are men lustful, but women are still hopeless when they love beauty, not to mention the people they like.

She felt that the tip of her nose was hot, and she didn't dare to look at it more, so she turned around and went to the house to get her coat and handed it to him: "Take this with you, although your body is wet, at least you can get drenched for a while when you go back." She said uneasily: "Go back and drink a bowl of ginger soup to get rid of the cold." ”

Yan He's eyes wandered on her face, and after a while, she raised her hand to take it, she felt a cold palm, and a small glass bottle was stuffed into her hand: "The spices given by the emperor can sleep better this night." ”

She was slightly startled, and saw him leap over the wall, and the person had disappeared into the rain. She couldn't help but ask: "Who did you learn from the problem of climbing over the wall?" But a smile spread uncontrollably on his lips.

At this time, the main door was pushed open, Qingge and Qingyun sneakily walked in, Chonglan first looked at his glasses and made sure that he didn't have a nosebleed before saying, "If you two want to come in, come in, what are you doing sneakily?" ”

Qingge was speechless, and Qingyun spoke straightforwardly: "Girl, the future uncle is gone?" ”

Chonglan was stunned: "Where did you come from, my future uncle?" ”

Qingyun pouted and said: "The girl is still going to hide it, my uncle has said that after the safari, I will choose an auspicious day to propose to you." ”

Chonglan was choked, and turned his head and said, "You just watched him come in? Don't stop it, even if you can't stop it, at least you can give me a wind, right? ”

Qingyun's mouth pursed even higher: "We are busy giving the girl wind at the door, so that no idlers will come in and disturb your conversation." He smiled and said, "Even if we pass through the wind, won't the girl see each other?" ”

Chonglan was so blocked that she couldn't speak, and could only glare at her hatefully.

Qingyun's eyes were a little straight, and she saw that she was wearing a silver-white chrysanthemum blue-collar placket today, covered with a plain gauze overcoat embroidered with bamboo leaves, and a moon-white embroidered peach blossom long skirt underneath. I always feel that there is something different from usual.

She shook her head, bit her lip and thought bitterly: "The girl is a little strange today, and I always feel that it is a little different from usual. ”

Chonglan said angrily: "What's the difference?" ”

Qingyun pondered: "It looks better than usual." ”

Chonglan was amused by her, waved her hand and said, "Don't be poor, tell someone to prepare food." ”

Qingge turned around and went to take the order, and Qingyun stayed behind and continued to chatter beside her: "But is the girl's dowry ready?" There is not much dowry left by the old lady back then, and if we have less dowry than the Yan family, it will definitely be looked down upon..."

Chonglan had a headache when she heard this, waved her hand and said, "You can go around me, it hurts your brain." After she finished saying Qingyun, she began to think about it again, if Yan and Zhen came to propose, it was time to consider the dowry.

But she wasn't very worried about this, money can make ghosts grind, as long as there is silver in hand, what can't she buy? After thinking about it, her thoughts drifted elsewhere, and she sighed: "With our identity, I am afraid that no matter how much dowry we bring, our family will not look down on us." ”

Qingyun also frowned when he thought of the Yan family, and said with relief: "I see that Lord Yan has an idea, and he will definitely not be swayed by his family, besides, I see that the daughters of those high-ranking families are not as good as you." ”

Chonglan smiled: "Just you can speak." She took out a plum-shaped silver barley and handed it to her: "Reward your clever mouth, take it and play with it." ”

Qingyun accepted it with a smile and went over to help with the dishes. The smile on her face gradually put away, and she sighed with one hand on her cheeks, not to mention that now that the Chong family is in decline, she is forced to make a living and do business, even if the Chong family was at its peak, Yan He was a big difference, and it was strange that the people of Qi Guofu could agree.

But it was useless for her to worry about this, she had nothing to do after eating, and it was raining outside and she couldn't go out hunting, so she simply held up the embroidery shed and prick a few stitches

Qingyun jumped on the side: "The girl embroiders a purse or handkerchief, and when the time comes, I will send it to Lord Yan, and Lord Yan will be happy." ”

Qingge pinched her the side: "As far as you talk a lot, this matter has not been decided yet, you have to shout all over the city?" ”

Qingyun was alarmed in his heart, and Fu Shen admitted his mistake and said: "It's me who is not good, and I almost ruined the girl's reputation." ”

Chonglan glanced at Qingge approvingly, then waved his hand and said, "Don't take it as an example, you go down first." ”

She took Qingyun's words as a joke, but when she actually picked up the needle and thread again, she thought... Is it better to embroider Tilian or red beans?

……

She fell asleep early at night listening to the sound of the rain outside the window, so she woke up very early in the morning, and the chamberlain came to spread the word that the sky was clear, and the emperor was going to start his safari in the afternoon, so let her prepare first.

She pushed open the window and looked out, and sure enough, the weather outside was fine, and the rain fell from the low-hanging eaves, and fell on the bluestone slab with a brisk ticking sound, slowly turning along the carved lines on the stone slab, and in a blink of an eye, it was full, and every stone petal seemed to be alive.

Chonglan was in a light mood, only the people invited by the emperor could live in this village, and the rest of the people lived in the next place, she walked up and wanted to find Aunt Chong, but she didn't expect to leave the courtyard, and when she walked to the edge of the hunting ground, she heard a scolding.

"Where did you come from, you don't know how to see the road when you ride a horse, and you can afford to bump into our county lord?"

Chonglan paused, subconsciously raised his eyes to look, and saw that Yan Ru was surrounded by several tall and strong men on the hunting ground, and those men were still holding hunting dogs in their hands, and among them was a richly dressed grandmother who was lecturing.

Yan Ru held the reins of the horse in one hand, hung her head and did not dare to speak, her eyes seemed to be a little flustered.

The grandmother's words became more and more bitter: "Which family gave birth to a young lady like you who doesn't know the rules, but it's really bad luck, fortunately, our county lord is fine, otherwise I can't afford to pay for your life!" ”

The county lord of Qinghe also rode a tall horse, the whole body was snow-white without a trace of variegation, and the sharp Danfeng eyes swept slightly: "What are you doing so loudly, just teach a few words at will, don't frighten this little girl, and then alarm others." ”

The grandmother obviously understood the deep meaning of these words, and scolded loudly: "Don't kneel down and kowtow to our county lord to apologize!" ”

Although Yan Ru was a little scared, when she heard this, her usual rude habits prevailed, and she pushed back with her neck: "What county lord is not the county lord, I am still the concubine of the Duke of Qi!" ”

She said loudly: "Besides, she ordered someone to run over with a hound, and my horse was frightened out of control, and she did something wrong first, and she apologized if she wanted to apologize, why should I kneel!" ”

The county lord of Qinghe turned pale, and flicked the nails that dyed Kodan: "Who else should I be, it turned out to be the broken family of Qi Guofu, and she was still the daughter of a concubine." ”

As if she had received some order, the grandmother stepped forward, raised her hand and slapped Yan Ru heavily, and then scolded: "Qi Guofu taught you something that doesn't know the rules, this hunting ground is surrounded by a fence, and no one is allowed to come in without the emperor's orders, don't you know?" ”

She breathed a sigh of relief, and continued to say loudly: "You almost injured our county lord on this rampage, you are still reasonable, our county lord is the daughter of the clan, the favorite daughter of the king of Pingle County, you are so bold!" ”

Yan Ru was slapped in the face, and now she is still a little dazed, she grew up in the palm of Ning's hand since she was a child, how could she have suffered such a grievance, she raised the horse whip in her hand and waved it, she originally wanted to whip the mother, but she didn't expect to pump it to the horse's eyes, the horse neighed in pain, and rushed straight towards the county lord of Qinghe.

The county lord of Qinghe was very skilled, grabbed the reins and took a few steps back, and then glanced at the person leading the dog with a pair of cold eyes.

The person leading the dog understood, and as soon as he let go of the chain in his hand, several wild dogs that had escaped from the reins rushed straight over.

Chonglan glanced at it a few times on the side, although Yan Ru hated it, but this Qinghe County Lord was too much, those dogs were the size of calves on the top of the ground, Yan Ru was bitten, I was afraid that half of her body would be gone, did she want to make trouble?

However, she had no ability and no intention of taking care of this matter, so she ordered someone to inform the patrol guards that even if she was benevolent and righteous, she turned around and was about to leave, when she saw one of the hounds suddenly rushing over, Qinghe Qingyun couldn't save her in time, and saw that the hound threw her to the ground.

She was knocked her knee, gasped in pain, her shoulder was trampled by the dog's paws, and she felt a fluffy and smelly head sniff on her, and she froze and didn't dare to move.

The county lord of Qinghe over there also found someone here, and the delicate distant mountain frowned: "Who is there, bring it to me!" As soon as she finished speaking, the dog handler whistled, and the hound got up and stared at her fiercely.

This is really a disaster, Chonglan secretly cursed in his heart for bad luck, signaled Qingge Qingyun not to act rashly, walked over with his whole dress, and saluted: "I have seen the county lord." ”

She didn't say a word at the emperor's place yesterday, and the county lord of Qinghe didn't notice her, and obviously didn't recognize her at this time.

Over there, Yan Ru had been held back by several hounds and couldn't move, she was so frightened that she lost her mind and kept begging for mercy in a panic.

Chonglan was also surrounded by several big dogs, and his legs involuntarily softened, but he was better than Yan Ru and could still maintain his composure.

The face of the lord of Qinghe County sank like water, and he walked in front of her with a shake of the reins, and the grandmother asked, "Who are you?" Why are you sneaking on our county lord on the side? ”

Chonglan slandered, she is not a hungry ghost in the sex, why is she watching your county lord if she has nothing to do! But thinking about it, she still said respectfully: "If I go back to the county lord, I want to go out to find someone, and I passed by here on the way, and I was accidentally pounced on by a hound, not intentionally... watched the county lord, and hoped that the county lord would forgive his sins. ”

The grandmother obviously didn't believe it, and sneered: "What a sharp mouth!" ”

The county lord of Qinghe, who had not spoken next to him, suddenly raised his hand, and one of the many hunting dogs rushed up, stood up and put it on her shoulder, pressed her to the ground again, and leaned into her neck with his mouth open.

The county lord of Qinghe said lazily: "I have a problem with this person, I hate people with backbone the most, if you beg me a few words, maybe I will let you go as soon as I am happy." ”

Chonglan was also a little panicked in her heart, this Qinghe County Lord was simply unreasonable to the extreme, she was about to open her mouth to bring the emperor out to say something, when she saw a crossbow in the distance. The arrow came and rested on the hound's head, and the hound struggled a few times, and then rolled over and lay on the ground, unable to move.

Jiang Yi had a crossbow on his arm, and shot out three in a row, killing all the hounds around her, and Yan Ru was also saved, and shrank to the side with tears on her face.

He walked over slowly and smiled: "It's early in the morning, the eldest sister is so angry." ”

The county lord of Qinghe frowned and said, "Why are you here?" ”

Jiang Yi stretched out his hand to pull Chonglan up, and gently wanted to help her pat the mud on her body, but she avoided it with a stiff face, and he didn't care, and said to the county lord of Qinghe: "I wanted to see what I could hunt, but I didn't expect ......."

He didn't say the second half of the sentence, but glanced at Chonglan. She was chilled by his prey-like eyes, and the county lord of Qinghe had a calm face: "You get out of the way." ”
