Chapter 066: The Royal Mansion of Northern Zhou County
Xue Ningqing's throat was a little stuffy, at this time, he had already left the war beast camp for five or six hundred miles, was Tuoba Rongren still in the war beast camp? Or stubbornly leave right away? I ate the food in the bowl, but I didn't feel any taste. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Xiaolan, do you have something on your mind? Is it homesick? Xiao Xianrou's starry eyes glanced at him with concern.
"It's okay, maybe I'm tired." Xue Ningqing washed the bowl with water and returned it to Xiao Xianrou.
Next to the fire, Xue Ningqing leaned on the stone, the firelight reflected in her eyes, listening to Xiao Xianrou tell the story of his childhood without a word, slowly climbed into sleep, and gradually closed her eyes.
Xiao Xianrou talked to himself for a while before he found that she was asleep, took out a felt cloak and put it on her, and wrapped his arms around her shoulders with a red face, so that after all these days, he finally got his wish to hug her.
After that, the two walked in the northeast direction for two months before reaching Beizhou County.
The Northern Zhou Prefecture is located in a stretch of green hills, and there are a total of thirteen mountain cities under its jurisdiction. Further east, the mountains are connected to the steppes of the vast Khanate.
The county king's mansion is located in one of the thirteen mountain cities called Jiaozhou.
It was the end of autumn and the beginning of winter, but the city of Jiaozhou was covered with a thick snow that had just fallen, and at the door of the shops lined up on the street stood dressed up to solicit customers.
Xue Ningqing pulled her foal, with only a cloak covered by Xiao Xianrou, and she was still wearing light armor inside, and her arms and thighs were exposed.
Xiao Xianrou's handsome face looked left and right at the passing shop, and finally his eyes lit up: "Xiaolan, I finally found a ready-to-wear shop, go in and buy you a jacket!" ”
Xue Ningqing waved her hand helplessly, she had said several times along the way that she was not cold, but it did not alleviate this guy's worries at all.
Tethering their horses to a stake in front of the shop, the two stepped into the ready-to-wear shop.
Facing the dazzling array of brocade embroidered clothes, Xue Ningqing felt nothing in her heart, but Xiao Xianrou was not, and the excitement on her face looked like the first time she entered the store to see a woman's clothes!
After picking for a long time, Xiao Xianrou's eyes had already seen the flowers, Xue Ningqing finally cut through the mess quickly, took a pink-colored padded jacket and the matching padded tube skirt and put it directly on the outside of the light armor: "That's it, Brother Xin settles accounts and leaves." ”
Xiao Xianrou immediately pulled a red felt cloak from a pile of clothes, and then he felt perfect.
After checking out, he changed out of the men's cloak on his body, Xue Ningqing looked more bright and moving, and Xiao Xianrou walked all the way and peeked all the way.
The two had another full meal in the wine shop before arriving at the county king's mansion.
Xue Ningqing stood at the foot of the tall stone steps at the gate of the county king's mansion and looked up, only to see two red lacquered doors closed left and right, and asked Xiao Xianrou: "Your house doesn't open during the day?" ”
Xiao Xianrou sighed: "Since my mother passed away, my brother didn't go home for a few years, my father took me to live in a military camp on the grassland thousands of miles away, and some subordinates were working at home. Now it seems that Daddy went to the barracks this time and did not come home. Xiaolan, you wait here, I'll call the door. ”
Little Fresh Meat ran up the steps and slapped the golden knocker on the red lacquered door.
After a long while, a crack in the door was opened from the inside, and a round and chubby mother hid behind the crack in the door and looked up and down at Xiao Xianrou a few times, and finally her eyes lit up and she slapped her leg hard: "Little master!" Is it a young master? Could it be that Mom admitted her mistake? ”
"It's me, it's me, I'm back today, Mom, fortunately, you still recognize me!"
Mom opened two doors, and as soon as she grabbed Xiao Xianrou's hand, she was about to drag it in: "Little master, you finally want to come back, didn't the county king come back with you?" Come in and mom will make you a few dishes to eat! ”
Xiao Xianrou didn't go with her, Jun blushed and pointed to Xue Ningqing and the two horses standing at the bottom of the steps: "Mom, there is another person...... She's my girlfriend. ”
Mother Mu squinted her eyes and looked down the steps, and couldn't hide a smile on her face: "There is another young lady, little master, you have really grown up, and you have a girlfriend!" Mom is going to ask the young lady to come in. ”
Xiao Xianrou hurriedly stopped: "No, no, no, I'll just invite her myself." ”
"Okay, then I'll go and pull the young master and young lady's horse to the backyard."
The two of them went down the steps one after the other, and when Mother Mu took the horses, she couldn't stop looking at Xue Ningqing, and the more she looked at it, the more happy she smiled.
Xiao Xianrou took Xue Ningqing's hand: "Xiaolan, let's go!" ”
Bypassing the huge dragon and tiger wall inside the gate of the county king's mansion, Xue Ningqing finally stepped into the county king's mansion that she was curious about.
The scale here is far less than the size of its own prince's mansion, but it is good at layout, among which the halls, pavilions, flower corridors, and water pavilions are each very cleverly arranged, so that people do not feel bored and bored at all when they walk in it.
After passing through a few halls with good views, you will come to a small spacious building, about the center of the palace.
Xiao Xianrou pointed to Xiao Lou and said with a smile: "Xiaolan, this is where I live, and you will live with me in the future." ”
Xue Ningqing smiled slightly, pretending to be flat and asked, "Oh?" You live in a good place, so where did your father live? And where does your brother live? ”
Xiao Xianrou said innocently: "My father and my mother live in the flower hall that we just walked through, and my brother lives there!" ”
Following the direction of his finger, Xue Ningqing saw a rockery in the distance, and there was a roof tile behind the rockery, which looked like a spacious flower hall.
Xiao Xianrou pulled Xue Ningqing into the small building, and then a few older maids came over to meet people, and arranged a room on the side of her little master's bedroom for Xue Ningqing to live, and served them to bathe and incense respectively, and then had dinner.
After the meal, Xue Ningqing saw the opportunity to throw off the little fresh meat and came to the flower hall where Tuoba Rongren lived when he was a child.
The flower hall has only one floor, surrounded by a flower gallery, and the inside is immaculately cleaned.
There was no futon on a carved bed, except for a table, cabinet and cabinet, only a faded bamboo horse on the ground.
This bamboo horse must be his beloved thing, Xue Ningqing thought so, and when Tuoba Rongren rode on a bamboo horse when he was a child, he couldn't help laughing.
Pick up the bamboo horse with your hand, hide it in the storage necklace, and imagine taking it out when we meet next time, so that he knows that he has gone to his house!
Just when he was thinking about it, the boss shouted in the distance: "Little Blue! Where are you? Little Blue! ”
Xue Ningqing shook her head helplessly, it seems that she is really going to get along with this little fresh meat day and night.
Quietly walked out of the flower hall that made her heart sweet, and touched the other direction behind the rockery, only to answer under a magnolia tree: "Brother Xin, I'm here." ”
Xiao Xianrou had a reproachful look on his face, and ran to Xue Ningqing to teach him a lesson: "Why did you leave me here and walk around?" It's dark and dawn, let's go upstairs and talk! ”
