Chapter 621: Three Wishes
Winter days always get dark quickly, and night comes quickly.
Nan Xinchen freshened up a little, and then entered the palace with Jin'er, a maid who was also dressed as a man.
This time, the dinner was very lively. Those soldiers on the battlefield are all very upright, and they say anything directly, never beating around the bush. When they saw Nan Xinchen appear in Wanyuan, they all respectfully called "General".
Nan Xinchen nodded, and then said: "Uncles, just call me by my name, now it's not on the battlefield, and there are no generals." Nan Xinchen looked at these soldiers who were older than her and said.
"That's right," these people, all of whom are fast-talking masters, immediately responded.
Lu Xin'er sat aside, her eyes couldn't help but turn around, why hasn't King Mo appeared yet, he won't stop coming. At this dinner, she begged her father for a long time, and with her mother's help, her father agreed to take her out. If King Mo didn't appear, wouldn't all her efforts be in vain?
Everyone waited for a while, and Nangong He and Nangong Mo appeared at the dinner together. Lu Xin'er's heart finally let go when she saw Nangong Mo appear, but fortunately, King Mo finally appeared.
Nangong Mo's eyes fell on Nan Xinchen who was sitting in the corner as soon as she entered Wanyuan, she was still white.
"Ladies and gentlemen, everyone must know the purpose of this dinner, right?" As soon as Nangong He sat down, he spoke. "General Shen."
"Weichen is here," Nan Xinchen walked out of the corner, dressed in a white robe, without any superfluous decorations, but she was more and more beautiful.
"Shen Aiqing has made a great contribution this time, what wish does Aiqing have not fulfilled? I can make three wishes to Aiqing. ”
"Thank you Emperor Longen, Weichen has no unfulfilled wishes."
"Oh? Yes, since this is the case, then let's keep these three wishes for now, and when Aiqing has any wishes in the future, I promise never to go back, how about it? Actually, Nangong He's heart was still a little strange. This courtier has done a great job, and it stands to reason that there is no problem with rewarding. However, Mo Di insisted on asking him to promise Nan Xinchen three wishes in public, but he couldn't resist him, so he had to agree. This time, he really couldn't figure it out, what was Mo Di thinking in his heart?
"Wechen Xie Emperor Longen." Since the emperor said so, it would be hypocritical to shirk it any longer, so Nan Xinchen didn't say anything more and agreed.
"Well, all the generals here have also made great contributions along with General Shen. General Zhao, General Li······ He gave 100 acres of grain fields, 20 horses of silk and 2,100 taels of silver. ”
"Thank you for your grace." Several people said together.
"Well, don't be too restrained today."
Nangong Mo picked the closest position to Nan Xinchen and sat down, looking at her intently. And across several tables, Lu Xin'er's eyes kept revolving around Nangong Mo. Her somewhat jealous eyes drifted towards Nan Xinchen, how could this man take away King Mo's sight so easily. It was like this last time, and it's the same this time, what kind of magic does this man have, which attracts the attention of King Mo more than she is a woman.
This night, Lu Xin'er stared at Nan Xinchen like this, as if she wanted to see a hole in her body before stopping. Sitting in the corner, Nan Xinchen naturally felt two blazing eyes from two directions, but she still pretended not to know, and her eyes drooped slightly. It's not that her patience is strong, but that these two lines of sight are too hot, and the meaning is too complicated, and she doesn't want to provoke too much, so she simply ignores it.
At the end of the dinner, Nan Xinchen couldn't wait to get up and prepare to leave. She really doesn't like this kind of occasion, and she doesn't like to be noticed too much, which is not what she wants. She was finally able to leave, and she felt a lot more relaxed. However, "the sky does not fulfill people's wishes", as soon as she got up, she was stopped by Nangong Mo.
"General Shen, this king has something to ask General Shen, I don't know if the general is free? Can you accompany this king for a walk? Such polite words came from Nangong Mo's mouth, and everyone couldn't help but stop, and they all looked at the two of them with some curiosity. Why, does King Mo still have something to ask General Shen for, and he still used such a polite tone. How strange it looks at.
Nan Xinchen listened to Nangong Mo's polite words, and then looked at the crowd of onlookers around him, and in everyone's eyes, there were doubts and some watching the play. If you refuse, it may cause a lot of discussion. Hey, she sighed in her heart, how can it be better to solve the matter in front of her.
She didn't want to walk with Nangong Mo, nor did she want to be the focus of everyone's discussions. What happened in the Shen Mansion today made her heart still feel like a thumping when she saw Nangong Mo at this moment. She didn't understand where this strange feeling came from, but she just couldn't control it.
Therefore, at this moment, when Nangong Mo offered to go with her, she instinctively wanted to refuse. However, maybe Nangong Mo had already expected her thoughts, and she actually mentioned it so directly after the public, so that she couldn't refuse so directly.
She thought a lot in her heart, but even if she wanted to break her brain, she couldn't come up with a way to solve the best of both worlds to solve the matter in front of her. In desperation, in order to avoid too many complicated eyes from everyone, she had to agree hard. She nodded and said politely, "Does King Mo have anything to discuss with his subordinates?" It's really an honor for Xia Guan. Her polite answer made Nangong Mo a little surprised.
Nangong He looked at everything that was happening in front of him and shook his head in disbelief. Why, Mo Di would pay so much attention to General Shen? At the dinner, he noticed Mo Di's unusual gaze. When he followed his gaze and looked over, he suddenly felt like he had been struck by lightning, why was the object Nan Xinchen? Could it be ······ He shook his head, how could it be, how could Brother Mo like Nan Xinchen, that's a man.
He thought it would be the daughter of a family. After all, he had already ordered today's dinner to be as usual, and the ministers were free to bring their families to attend. Therefore, it would not be surprising if Nangong Mo fell in love with the daughter of a family, but he didn't expect that the person who made Nangong Mo pay so much attention turned out to be Nan Xinchen.
In the crowd, Lu Xin'er wanted to follow Nangong Mo after the dinner, she thought, even if she can't get Nangong Mo's approval now, it is a kind of happiness to be able to look at his back. So when she saw this situation, she was really annoyed. This man is even more cared for by Nangong Mo than a woman like her, how can she be willing? She stomped her foot in hatred.
Tonight, Nangong Mo's attention to Nan Xinchen has gone beyond the ordinary range, and now he wants to go back with her. Such an attitude makes people have to suspect that there is an unusual relationship between the two, but both of them are obviously men. She was still thinking about it, but Lu Lincheng had already forcibly pulled her away. Even if there was a lot of dissatisfaction in her heart, she still obediently followed Lu Lincheng and left.
On the street at night, a cool breeze hits, with a biting chill. Nan Xinchen is already wearing little, and it is winter at the moment, even a man can't stand such coldness, let alone a woman like her? She tightened her robe slightly, trying to let the cold wind get into her clothes, but she didn't expect that just such a subtle movement was noticed by Nangong Mo.
He immediately took off his robe and put it on Nan Xinchen's body without saying a word. Such a thoughtful action, if it is used on a man against a woman, how flattering it should be. Behind the two of them, Nangong Mo's personal guard Wang Qin couldn't help but think so. He couldn't figure out how the master could care so much about a man, even more so than a woman.
However, behind the two of them, Nan Xinchen's personal maid Jin'er didn't think so, when she saw this scene, she smiled heartily in her heart, such a happy picture, she felt envious when she looked at it. She sincerely hoped that King Mo would be the lady's beloved.
When Nan Xinchen noticed Nangong Mo's movements, he naturally reached out to block the robe he gave her. This kind of action is only suitable for people who are close to you! It seems that the relationship between him and her has not reached such a point! Moreover, in such a cold weather, Nangong Mo took off the robe on his body and gave it to her, so wouldn't he himself be frozen again? If he suffers from the cold, how can it be good? At this moment, she didn't realize how much she cared about Nangong Mo. It's just that she thought of this layer so naturally, and she did it, so naturally that she didn't even realize that she had such a mind. So, she instinctively wanted to refuse.
However, it was obvious that Nangong Mo didn't give Nan Xinchen a chance to refuse, he directly pulled her over and directly covered her with his robe, which made Nan Xinchen slightly stunned. Such a domineering action, but the force used on her body was just right, and the feeling of not being light or heavy made her heart warm slightly. She opened her mouth and thanked her, but found that Nangong Mo did not make a sound. So, she turned her head, only to find that he was looking at her with warm eyes, which made her a little overwhelmed.
"King Mo," she couldn't help but whisper, trying to break the atmosphere. Being watched by him like this, she is really a little unaccustomed to it. Behind them, Jin'er and Wang Qin also stopped and looked at their masters. Such a picture, such an environment, how to look at it and feel a little strange.
Unexpectedly, Nangong Mo still looked at her with such eyes as if he hadn't heard her words. In such a lonely street, such a posture looks strange. Nan Xinchen suddenly remembered that he seemed to have something to say to her just now, so he offered to go with her. So why didn't you see him say a word all the way? She couldn't guess what Nangong Mo was thinking in her heart, but the only thing she was sure of was that this man's concern for her was really true.
"King Mo, did you just say that there is something you want to discuss with your subordinates?" She opened her mouth again, hoping to get Nangong Mo's answer, but he was still silent.
She was a little annoyed, so she walked forward angrily. Jin'er saw that her master was about to leave like this, so she was about to follow, but she didn't expect Nangong Mo to catch up. She stopped, trying to leave space for the two of them.
Ahead, Nangong Mo walked a few steps and caught up with Nan Xinchen, he didn't say anything, just turned her body directly, and then hugged her waist, and put his cheek on her cheek. "King Mo," Nan Xinchen felt that Nangong Mo was so strange tonight, these various behaviors always made her puzzled. She was still thinking about something in her heart, so she completely ignored Nangong Mo's action of holding her. When she noticed it, she thought about reaching out and pushing him away.
What she didn't expect was that Nangong Mo hugged her arms but tightened them, making her unable to break free. His voice sounded in her ears, "Ling'er," not like in the past, his voice seemed to be slightly suppressed at this moment, making her a little overwhelmed, "Let me hold it for a while, okay?" There was some inquiring tone, but he didn't give her a chance to refuse at all, he was already holding her, what was the point of asking like this. Did she really let go of her if she refused him?
"Well," she replied very slightly, not only did she feel a little overwhelmed, but also distressed, she didn't know where the distress came from, but she just felt like this. Therefore, compared with him like this, she still likes the handsome him before, and she thinks that he is the real him.
Nangong Mo stood on the street with Nan Xinchen in his arms and stood for a while. It wasn't until Nan Xinchen couldn't help but shrink his shoulders that he realized that the two had been standing on this street for a while.
Actually, it's not that Nangong Mo is abnormal tonight, it's that even he doesn't know what happened to him. He just wanted to be with her, he just wanted to hold her quietly like this, feel her breath, even if he didn't say anything, he didn't do anything, he was willing. He didn't want to go back to the house because he couldn't see her there. However, it seems that I have been out for too long.
Wang Qin watched his master hug another man, but there was such a happy expression on his face. He suddenly had an ominous premonition, how could such an expression of the master, like holding a beloved woman, be used on a man? Could it be that the master really likes this General Shen? That's a man, how could it be?
Nangong Mo finally let go of Nan Xinchen, he reached out and covered her cheeks, the cold touch made Nan Xinchen can't help but bow his head. His hands were cold, and it was the first thing he felt when he touched her cheek. She didn't feel her at all when his hand was on her face, and her first reaction was to feel sorry for her, rather than pushing his hand away.
