Chapter 95
Another day, it is the Lantern Festival, Dongfang Lingwu and Chu Mi left for ten days, and have not returned so far, the squire of the Criminal Department and Dali Siqing have resigned and returned to their hometowns on the tenth day of the first month, and the case has been shelved, and Emperor Qianwen seems to have been unaware of the fact that the dark wind has been dead for four days, and did not send secret guards to continue the investigation.
In the palace, only Dongfang Xi kept moving.
"Yun'er, tomorrow's Japanese Festival, can I take you out of the palace?" The Lantern Festival in the palace is very boring, and it is not as good as the ordinary people outside the palace to celebrate the Lantern Festival happily. Today is only fourteen, the outside of the palace is already a lantern, to tomorrow, there will be a variety of dragon dance lantern lantern lantern guessing lantern riddle activities.
Dark Cloud was only slightly injured, Dongfang Du refused to let her leave her Fengqing Palace for half a step, she was the pavilion master of Huangquan Pavilion, and she needed to contact her subordinates in the pavilion from time to time, it was like being trapped in Fengqing Palace for four days under semi-house arrest, and she could finally leave.
"Let's leave the palace today, stay outside the palace for a day, finish the Lantern Festival tomorrow, and return to the palace the day after tomorrow." In this way, you can stay outside the palace for two nights.
Dongfang Du lowered his eyebrows and thought for a moment, before nodding with a smile, "Change your clothes in a while, and leave the palace." I have wronged you by letting you stay in my dormitory day and night for the past few days. In order to take care of her, she also stayed in the dormitory for four days and never left, she was already bored, and at this moment, when Dark Cloud mentioned it, she also agreed, but when she thought of Dark Cloud's injury, she felt uneasy in her heart, Dongfang Xi's actions in secret, she always knew that she was afraid that he would suddenly turn the direction and attack her, and it would not be good to affect Dark Cloud.
Banlan has been guarding the door, Dongfang Du and Dark Cloud are about to leave the palace, so they have to take her with them. In this situation, it is the safest to bring Banlan. The three of them changed into ordinary people's clothes and drove out of the palace.
The three of them left the palace and drove to the Changyue Inn first. The last time Banlan went out of the palace, he came to this Changyue Inn to look for Gu Hongyi, but Gu Hongyi was not there, today, as soon as he stepped into the inn, he saw Gu Hongyi sitting alone at a table with his back to the door in the center of the lobby.
As soon as the innkeeper saw Banlan, he immediately walked out from behind the counter, intending to greet the guest in person, but when he saw Banlan waving his hand at him, he suddenly stopped and turned back to the counter.
Dongfang Du walked to Gu Hongyi's side with the dark cloud, and said with a light smile: "Sister Hongyi, don't come to harm." After speaking, he didn't need to greet Hongyi, so he sat down with the dark cloud.
Gu Hongyi pushed the wine jar forward to Dongfang, raised his eyebrows and said, "Drink a jar with me first." After saying that, he picked up another jar of wine and drank it.
Fang Cai was still drinking in a small bowl, and at this moment, he actually drank directly in front of the wine jar, Dongfang Du looked at Gu Hongyi suspiciously, "Sister Hongyi, I see you so unhappy, but what happened?" But after looking at Gu Hongyi's expression carefully, he didn't seem to be sad or sad, it was really strange.
Gu Hongyi put down the wine jar, glanced at Banlan who was following them, and shook his head. Anything can happen, it's just that I feel lonely and lonely. For so many years, I have always been alone, only in the past four years, with Dongfang Du by my side and Banlan with me, I didn't feel lonely, but now, I am alone again.
She is twenty-five years old, and other women, at this age, are already accompanied by her husband and son's family for the New Year, but she doesn't even have someone by her side, which makes her feel better.
Gu Hongyi was in love, the corners of his mouth raised, and he said with a smile: "How can you come out today?" I just went back to the palace, and I didn't stay in the palace well, but I ran outside the palace, "Could it be that I came out with your little lady to spend this Lantern Festival?" He looked at the dark cloud with a playful expression.
Four years ago, when she went to assassinate Dongfang Du, Dark Cloud followed Dongfang Du's side, and when they met again, it was actually four years later, looking at the relationship between the two, as well as the tacit understanding between the gestures, I think there is already a closer relationship. There is always a big difference between couples and lovers before and after a relationship.
When Dark Cloud heard the little lady, her face was instantly dyed with a flush, this was the first time she was called like this, and she didn't know how to react for a while.
"yes, take my lady out to play." Sideways smiled and glanced at the dark clouds, the hand under the table gently held her hand, turned to Gu Hongyi and continued: "Tomorrow is the Lantern Festival, tomorrow night, it is better to visit this Jingzhou City together." Looking back, he saw that Banlan had been silent, hooked the corners of his lips, and said, "Banlan, you will accompany Sister Red tomorrow night." ”
Banlan accompanies Gu Hongyi, and she can live a two-person world with Dark Cloud.
Banlan was taken aback, and hurriedly shook her head and refused, "I want to follow the son and the lady." After speaking, he secretly glanced at Gu Hongyi, saw that her eyes were gloomy, and thought that his unhesitating refusal just now hurt her, so he hesitated and nodded, "I...... I accompanied the red clothes. ”
Banlan is the same age as Dongfangdu, but she is never called Sister Gu Hongyi.
When Gu Hongyi heard this, her dim eyes instantly lit up, and she said jokingly: "Didn't Xiao Lan'er always dislike staying with me?" Not afraid of being bullied by me? ”
If you want to bully her, you have to practice martial arts for a few more years!
Dark Cloud gently squeezed Dongfang Du's hand, Dongfang Du understood, and said with a smile: "Banlan, you sit here to drink with Sister Red, and Yun'er and I go out for a walk." When he got up with the dark cloud and turned around to leave, he seemed to remember something again, and said, "It's enough to let the shopkeeper open an upper room, you ...... Let's just share it with the sister in red, hahaha......"
Seeing that Banlan wanted to refuse, he said: "This is my own industry, save the room to make more money, hahaha......" After speaking, he left the Changyue Inn with Dark Cloud.
Gu Hongyi watched the two leave, and when the two of them left the inn, they turned their heads to look at Banlan, and saw that she was still standing at the table, she couldn't help the throbbing in her heart, reached out and hooked her fingers, and said, "Your son-in-law is gone, don't you sit down?" ”
Hesitantly looking at the woman in red in front of her, whose eyes had been falling on her, Banlan moved her body resignedly, sat down at the table, and as soon as she sat down, she saw Gu Hongyi get up, winked at her gracefully, sat down next to her, and wrapped her waist with her hand, "My little Lan'er, why are you so cold......
"You...... Don't ...... like this" Banlan pushed Gu Hongyi's hand, blushed and said, "There are so many people coming and going...... Although both of them are dressed as women, women and women should not be so close......
As soon as the two of them left the inn, Dark Cloud couldn't help but ask, "Du, what is the relationship between that Gu Hongyi and Banlan?" "The last time Banlan came out to look for Gu Hongyi, I thought that their relationship was very good, but when I saw them today, I always felt that the reaction of the two was very strange.
Banlan didn't seem to be very enthusiastic about Gu Hongyi, and before entering the inn, she still said a few words to them from time to time, but after entering the inn and seeing Gu Hongyi, she became silent.
"Guess what's the relationship?" Dongfang Du clenched the hand of the dark cloud, and looked at it casually on the small stall on the street, tomorrow is the Lantern Festival, and there are many small stalls selling small lanterns today, Dongfang Du took a fancy to a small lamp depicting a lotus, so he pulled the dark cloud and walked over.
Dark Cloud had already guessed in his heart, but at this moment, he shook his head lightly, "I can't guess." ”
Dongfang Du smiled and said, "I'll know later." "I didn't plan to tell her so early.
His left hand never let go of the dark cloud, and his right hand was raised, pointing to the small lotus lamp hanging on the shelf, and asked, "Boss, how much is the small lamp painted with lotus flowers?" ”
When the boss saw the business coming to the door, he squinted his eyes, hurriedly took off the small lamp and handed it to Dongfangdu, and said, "Guest officer, only six yuan." "Dongfang Du is dressed luxuriously, and at first glance he is a rich son, but the boss is still a reasonable price, and there is no malicious price.
Dongfang Du smiled and took out a few copper coins from his arms, handed them to the boss, took the small lamp, and then handed them to the dark clouds beside him, and asked, "Lady, do you like it?" ”
The boss saw that Dongfang Du and Dark Cloud had been holding hands, so he guessed the relationship between the two, so close, either brother and sister or lover, at this moment I heard Dongfang Du call her mother, and hurriedly said: "This lamp is made by Xia Yu himself, the guest officer's lady is naturally beautiful, and this lamp is matched with the guest officer's lady." ”
Dark Cloud smiled shyly, took the small lamp, and didn't look over.
Seeing this, Dongfang Du leaned into her ear and said, "The lamp is waiting for it to be given to your sweetheart." After speaking, he led the dark cloud and continued to walk forward, and the stall owner enthusiastically praised it in the back, the guest officer and the lady were really compatible, and the dark cloud was even more red-faced with shame.
"Yun'er, do you want to eat sugar gourds?" No matter how old he is, Dongfang Du seems to like to buy sugar gourds. The first time she took Dongfang Lingwu out of the palace, she also bought sugar gourds to tease her, and this time, she bought sugar gourds for Dark Cloud.
Dark Cloud snorted, "I'm not a child anymore~" but didn't stop Dongfang Du, and let her buy a string of sugar gourds.
"Why did you only buy a bunch?" It's really funny little girl, just buy a bunch!
Dongfang Dufu took her hand again and said with a smile: "This way I can hold you." ”
Holding her with her left hand, feeding her a sugar gourd with her right hand from time to time, pedestrians on the road, from time to time look sideways at them, their eyes are full of envy, this is not yet the Lantern Festival, they began to show affection! Waiting for tomorrow night's Lantern Festival, men can send lanterns to their favorite women, and women will give Jinpa in response to their affection, and at that time, they will not only show their affection.
The two wandered around the streets near the Changyue Inn for half an hour before returning to the inn. They didn't come back, Banlan had been waiting in the lobby, seeing that they had finally come back, and Dark Cloud was still carrying a chic small lamp in his hand, he couldn't help but be a little shocked, and he was stunned before he reacted, this must have been given by the second prince of their family, otherwise with Dark Cloud's temperament, how could he buy such a cute little lamp!
Her second prince actually only bought one lamp, why didn't she buy one more for her?!
"Childe, you can be counted as back, I have been waiting here for a long time." Sadly glanced at the chic little lamp in Dark Cloud's hand, pouted and said, "You still bought the lamp......"
Dongfang Du smiled, "Let the sister in red give you one tomorrow night." After speaking, he found that Banlan was the only one there, and glanced at the entire lobby in disbelief, and really left her Banlan alone?
His gaze fell on Banlan's body again and asked, "What about her?" ”
"The red coat said that he had something to leave for a while." Banlan glanced at the small lamp in Dark Cloud's hand from time to time, and Dark Cloud saw her movements, and said with a smile: "I like it so much, why don't I give it to you?" ”
