Chapter 20: Someone in My Heart
It's another nice day today! The small buds on the peach trees in the garden have opened one after another, and a large area of pink and tender is swaying in the morning breeze, indicating that spring has officially arrived!
Ruyi sat on a stone bench under the peach blossoms, holding her hand-sewn clothes, and she looked up at the entrance of the garden from time to time, feeling both nervous and excited. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Qiao Xiaoqiao, who was sitting side by side, naughtily touched her with her elbow, "Don't be nervous!" Iron Bull is not a stranger! ”
"I'm afraid Lord Xuantie will refuse!" Ruyi said shyly.
"No, it won't! I'm afraid it's too late for Tie Niu to be happy! ”
Ruyi lowered his head, blushing like a peach blossom beside him.
Xuan Tie strode over, followed by the careless Mu Qingyun.
Ruyi stood up nervously.
"Iron Bull! Come here! There are good things! ”
Qiao Xiaoqiao snickered.
Xuantie scratched his head, "A good thing? What's a good thing? ”
Qiao Xiaoqiao gently pushed Ruyi forward and winked at Xuantie, "Our Ruyi girl has something to say to you!" There's something good for you! ”
"Ahh Xuan Tie froze in place, he suddenly remembered what Mu Qingyun had said yesterday, and immediately understood what was going on, he turned his head and glared at Mu Qingyun, "Wood!" You, ".
Mu Qingyun spread out his hands and grinned, "It's none of my business!" I don't know anything! ”
"Hey! Wood! This garden full of peach blossoms is blooming just right! You come with me over there to have a look! Qiao Xiaoqiao pulled up Mu Qingyun's sleeves and winked at him.
Xuan Tie watched Qiao Xiaoqiao drag Mu Qingyun and walk to the other side of the garden, so anxious that he only scratched his head.
"Lord Xuantetsu!" Ruyi plucked up the courage and shouted.
"Ugh! Ruyi! You still call me Iron Bull! ”
"Lord Xuantetsu! Tomorrow you will go west with the prince! I heard that the climate in Xiguan is harsh! I made this dress day and night! If you don't dislike it, take it! It is an honor to be able to make a warm dress for adults! Ruyi handed over the package in his arms.
Xuantie didn't hesitate to stretch out his hand and take the package, "Ruyi!" I've always treated you like a sister! If you have the heart to sew clothes for me, then I will accept it!" Thank you! Xuantie turned his head to look at the other side of the garden, "Oops! Where did these two run away in the blink of an eye? Ruyi, let's go over and have a look. ”
Xuantie quickly turned around and ran to the other side of the garden as if he were running away.
Looking at Xuantie's distant back, Ruyi was sad and tearful.
Qiao Xiaoqiao stopped, "Hey! Wood! Do you say that Tie Niu will accept a piece of Ruyi's heart? ”
"Nine times out of ten, it won't!"
"Why?"
"I guess there's already someone in that stubborn cow's heart!"
"Ahh No way? ”
Qiao Xiaoqiao looked stunned, this big iron bull is usually very arrogant, but he didn't expect that there was still a person hidden in his heart! Finished! What about Ruyi?
Jiang Li got off the morning court and went straight to Qiyun Palace.
Above the court this morning, three people actually proposed to lead the troops to Xiguan on behalf of the prince! This was something Jiang Li didn't expect, but when he sent someone to ask the emperor's opinion, the emperor still insisted on his opinion, "The prince's expedition is a foregone conclusion!" I already know the sincerity of the others! ”。
Seeing the dragon rhino, Jiang Li couldn't help but take a sip of water, "Your Highness! Someone is willing to lead troops to the west! The old man wants to ask His Highness to think about it! After all, fighting is not child's play, Your Highness! ”
Long Xi gently propped Jiang Li on the chair, "National Teacher!" This king knows that you treat me like a parent, but this time, my father did nothing wrong! I'll have to fight this battle myself! I want to convince the people of Yan that their king is not a puppet at the mercy of others! I want to let Qin Guo know that my Dayan is not a little shrimp waiting to perish! ”
"Your Highness! "Jiang Li didn't know how to persuade him.
The prince's practice banquet is set in the Wanshou Palace, and in the evening, the Wanshou Palace is crowded, raising light and singing and dancing, and the joy does not seem to be practiced at all.
The Rise of the Prince! It is undoubtedly a shot in the arm for the weak Dayan!
Queen Mingyue was not happy at all! The prince would rather lead troops than agree to accept Zhao Lingxin as a concubine, this is a blatant provocation to her and the forces behind her!
You can't sit still, you have to think of a way to do it!
The banquet lasted until midnight, and the prince couldn't drink, but tonight the situation was different, so when the prince was drinking, Xuan Tie and Mu Qingyun didn't stop it.
Long Xi refused to be accompanied by all people, and walked staggering on the way back to Qiyun Palace alone, he had more important things to do! Although his feet were unstable, his mind was extremely clear.
In the Bright Moon Palace.
A palace maid hurriedly walked in, "Niangniang! The prince drank a lot tonight! This son is on his way back to the palace! And also a person! ”
"Oh?" The bright moon came to the spirit.
"Are you sure the prince is walking alone on the way back to the palace?"
"It's true, mother!"
"Hahaha! What eyes are in the sky! Hurry up and get Zhao Lingxin for me! ”
"Yes! Empress! ”
Qiao Xiaoqiao spent the afternoon comforting Ruyi's emotions.
After returning from the garden, Ruyi kept crying and crying.
"That's what a little girl is like when she falls out of love!" Qiao Xiaoqiao thought to herself.
But in fact, she is only one year older than Ruyi.
Ruyi, who finally settled down, stopped crying, but this girl had to go to Dongyu with Qiao Xiaoqiao tomorrow.
"Ruyi! Didn't we say it? You have to stay in the palace, the great master needs someone to take care of it! If you leave, teach me how to rest assured that he is an old man? Besides, I'm just going to Dongyu to stay for a while, maybe I'll be back next month! ”
"Really?" Ruyi is skeptical.
"Of course! When have I ever lied to you! ”
"Little Joe! You're my only relative! If you leave and never come back, what will I do in the future? What if someone bullies me? ”
Ruyi said and began to shed tears again.
"Wood and the big iron ox will protect you! Don't worry anymore! ”
In fact, Qiao Xiaoqiao's melancholy is no less than anyone else's!
After settling in Ruyi, she decided to go to the Falling Cloud Hall again and say goodbye to Queen Yun.
In the Falling Cloud Palace, it was still the same as last time, but the bronze sword on the table was gone.
She lit a pillar of incense and knelt down three times at Queen Yun's tablet, originally had something to say, but at this time she didn't know where to start.
She sat against the wall in the Hall of Falling Clouds for a long, long time.
It was already midnight when he came out of the Falling Cloud Palace, and somehow he walked into the garden again.
On the night of early spring, the wind brought a chill, Qiao Xiaoqiao hugged his shoulders and sat on the bench where he had sat during the day.
I'm about to leave, and suddenly I feel that everything here is so reluctant.
Several times, footsteps sounded at the garden gate, and Qiao Xiaoqiao would stretch her neck to see, what were you looking forward to? She couldn't tell herself.
