Chapter XI

Dongfang Lingwu shouted softly, then turned his head and continued to walk in the direction of the palace gate, leaving Dongfang Du stunned. But after a moment, he came back to his senses and chased after him, and gently pulled Dongfang Lingwu's cloak, "Sister Huang, what did you just call me?" Dongfang Du's face was full of excitement, and he was so happy that he didn't know the north and the south, "Sister Huang, in this world, only Ling Wu is the only one who calls me Du." ”

Dongfang Lingwu glanced at Dongfang Du with his spare eyes, did not answer, and walked in the direction of the palace gate without looking back. Seeing Dongfang Lingwu's arrogant appearance and ignoring himself, Dongfang Du bit his lip, loosened his cloak, and obediently followed Dongfang Lingwu's side. After only a moment of silence, Dongfang Du spoke again, "Ling Wu, why don't we take a walk?" ”

Dongfang Lingwu paused and turned around, "You directly pulled me out of my Lingxin Palace, and you haven't let people prepare for a step yet!" Thinking that he had just been staggered out of Lingxin Palace directly by Dongfang Dula, the little eunuchs and palace maids who were guarding the palace all covered their mouths and snickered, it is estimated that his dignified image of a princess of a country will be ruined today.

Dongfang Du was embarrassed, his face was slightly red, and he said in a voice that was so light that only two people could hear: "It's good to walk, you can sit on a chariot wherever you go, aren't these legs white and long......" This reason was so that he couldn't even listen to himself, Dongfang Du pulled Dongfang Lingwu forward after speaking, in order to hide his embarrassment.

In front of the palace gate, there was a team of guards wearing black military uniforms with long knives at their waists, and when they saw Dongfang Lingwu and Dongfang Du, they all clasped their fists and saluted: "Meet the princess and the second prince"

"Let's all be flat," Dongfang Lingwu and Dongfang Du said at the same time.

"Outside the palace, call the young master of the palace, call the young lady of the imperial sister......" Realizing that this title seemed to be a little wrong, he coughed lightly and changed his words: "Just call Miss Imperial Sister" Dongfang Du thought about explaining the title of the guard in front of him before leaving the palace, otherwise calling Miss Princess outside the palace would not frighten passers-by to panic.

"Yes, miss, young master." The guards shouted again with their fists clenched.

Dongfang Lingwu heard the sentence of calling the imperial sister and young lady, and her heart was hot and throbbing, like a small fire burning, fortunately, Dongfang Du finally changed her tone and asked the guards to call her Miss, so as not to be embarrassed, if she really called Dongfang Du Young Master, called her young lady, presumably Dongfang Lingwu was already flushed at this moment.

'These guards are really fast! changed his words to Miss and Young Master so quickly. Dongfang Du sneered, thinking that he wanted to take Dongfang Lingwu to Wuya Mountain alone, so he said: "This time out of the palace, your duty is to protect the palace and the imperial sister, this time to go to Wuya Mountain, there is no danger on the road, so you can all follow five miles behind the palace, if there is something, the palace will send a signal." With that, he handed a short, thin flare that he had prepared to the man who was clearly the leader of the guards.

The leader took the signal flare with both hands, and his face was embarrassed, "Second prince, this... That's not right. "Emperor Qianwen believed in himself, so he let himself take his guards out of the palace with the princess and the second prince, if it was really five miles away, something really happened, it would be too late to rush to the rescue, if the princess and the second prince had an accident, not only did he not protect his position as the head of the guard, but I was afraid that he would not even be able to save his head.

"It doesn't matter, this palace went out of the palace to learn martial arts when I was young, and I will definitely be able to protect the imperial sister well, and if I really encounter an opponent, I can also hold on until you come to save me." Dongfang Du raised his eyebrows, thinking in his heart, 'Even if he loses this life, he will definitely protect the emperor's sister'.

After Dongfang Du finished speaking, he thought that he still didn't know the name of the head of the guard in front of him, so he asked, "By the way, what's your name?" ”

"Back to the second prince, Wu Mingxing," Wu Mingxing replied with his fists clenched.

Dongfang Du looked Wu Mingxing up and down, guessing that Wu Mingxing should be around thirty years old, so he said directly: "Then trouble Brother Wu." ”

"Humble and frightened, the second prince can shout and shout, this big brother, he can't afford to be humble." Wu Mingxing heard Dongfang Du, who was the second prince, actually calling himself Brother Wu, and he was so frightened that he panicked. This was called the eldest brother by the prince, and he didn't have the same status as the prince, although this eldest brother is just an honorific title, not the real eldest brother, but if other people in the palace hear it, I'm afraid it's not the same thing.

"Brother Wu, when you leave the palace, don't think about any princesses and princes anymore." Dongfang Du saw that he kept holding his fists, his face was panicked, and his body was still trembling slightly, so he said something of relief. Thinking of grinding further, he didn't know when he would be able to leave, so he didn't wait for Wu Mingxing to refuse, so he continued directly: "Brother Wu, when will we leave?" ”

Thinking that he had just wasted a long time in front of the palace gate, Wu Mingxing hurriedly replied: "The carriage has been prepared outside the palace, and it will be ready to leave immediately." Thinking that Dongfang Du and Dongfang Lingwu are princesses, they must have chosen to ride in a carriage instead of riding a horse. At this time, Wu Mingxing found that Dongfang Du was still carrying a burden on his back, and hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Young master, you will give the burden to the lowly position, and the lowly position will help you take it." ”

"No need," Dongfang Du refused, "Brother Wu, but there are still fast horses?" Sister Huang and I plan to ride back to Wuya Mountain. "Thinking about rushing to Wuya Mountain to find my senior sister, and taking Dongfang Lingwu to see the appearance outside the palace, the best choice is to ride a horse, if you take a carriage, you can't keep lifting the curtain to see the life of those ordinary people outside the palace and the scenery of real nature.

"Yes, yes" Wu Ming replied, I really didn't expect that as a princess and a prince, I would choose to ride a horse, how comfortable it is to ride a carriage, and riding a horse is much more tiring than riding a carriage.

After Wu Mingxing finished speaking, he took Dongfang Du and Dongfang Lingwu to pick up the horse. "Young master, miss, these horses are the mounts of the lowly and subordinates, and they are not as good as the horses, if the young master and the young lady don't look down on them, the lowly will go to the stables and let people send two good horses over."

"There's no need to be so troublesome, even if Brother Wu's horse is not a good horse like Maxima, it won't be bad." Dongfang Du picked two horses at random, one pure black and the other pure chestnut, turned his head to Dongfang Ling Wu and said, "Ling Wu, which one do you want?" ”

Dongfang Lingwu narrowed his eyes, "You finally thought of coming here to ask me what I mean?" Dongfang Lingwu really didn't expect Dongfang Du to say that he wanted to ride a horse, and he wanted to say that he couldn't ride a horse on the spot, but he thought that if he really said that, he seemed to be very embarrassed, so he endured it all the time, and wanted to wait until he was in private to tell Dongfang Du that he didn't know how to ride a horse.

I can't say that I can't, I still learned horseback riding for a while, but I only learned it for a while. Although he is now sixteen years old, he has never been out of the palace, and he mostly rides in the palace, how can he ride a horse? When this royal family hunted, just because she was a princess and was not good at riding horses, she could only stay in the palace.

Dongfang Du saw that Dongfang Lingwu's eyes flashed with danger, but he didn't answer himself, and lowered his eyebrows to think about whether he had done something wrong, "It doesn't seem to be......

"Ling... Ling Wu, this pure black and pure chestnut, which one do you like? "I thought, 'Don't you like the color of this horse?' Black and maroon aren't pretty! ’

The corners of Dongfang Lingwu's mouth raised, hooked his fingers, let Dongfang Du's head close to him, then pinched Dongfang Du's ear, and said in a cold voice: "Du, I can't ride a horse......"
