Chapter Seventy-Six: Retreat
Langfeng is a very rare breed in the Western Regions, is the leader among the dark horses, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the best among the horses, the name "Langfeng" is still given by the emperor, at that time he did not taste the crown, tamed this young horse from the desert in the horse race, the emperor gave this horse to him, gave the name "Langfeng", which means that it is rare and extremely fast, and it is a symbol of status.
Since that year, Langfeng has been by his side, and he has been with him for almost ten years, growing from a young horse to a more heroic horse, but now, Su Yingtong's sentence "big black" ...... Gong Jingyu couldn't look directly at Langfeng, why did it sound like someone's dog?
Langfeng was also very dissatisfied, it pulled its neck and hissed, it didn't want to be called Da Hei!
Su Yingtong took a step back in fear, why was Da Hei so good and irritable again!
Gong Jingyu looked at Su Yingtong's cautious appearance, and pressed his temples helplessly, just let her like it, it doesn't matter what her love is called.
Since then, Langfeng has sadly turned into a big black.
Su Yingtong didn't know what was going on, she comforted Da Hei and tried to climb on its back, she hadn't ridden a horse yet, she was really a little excited!
But Da Hei didn't let her get her wish, it raised its front hooves and let out a long howl, who made you call me Da Hei!
Su Yingtong was almost kicked by it.
Gong Jingyu hurriedly pulled her back a few steps, flipped over on the horse's back, grabbed the reins to force Langfeng to stop his restlessness, and patted it on the neck to calm it down.
He held out his hand to her, "Give it to me." β
Su Yingtong shyly handed him his hand, the king of Xiangyuan just now was so handsome that he had no friends, and she couldn't stand it if she was so gentle with her!
As soon as his hand was held by Gong Jingyu, Gong Jingyu took Su Yingtong on the horse and let her sit comfortably in his arms, his arm wrapped around her slender waist and pulled the reins, completely incorporating her into his arms.
Su Yingtong leaned against his strong chest, and his snort was full of the smell of his body, very warm and secure.
Her heartbeat couldn't stop accelerating, her ears were hot, and she didn't know where to swing her hands.
Langfeng didn't feel the softness of the atmosphere at all, it raised its front hooves unruly, it didn't want this woman to ride on its back!
Su Yingtong exclaimed in surprise, and grabbed the clothes on Gong Jingyu's chest uneasily.
Gong Jingyu saw that it really frightened her, and the unpleasant aggravation tightened the reins, Langfeng felt the dissatisfaction of his master, and stopped going crazy and quieted down.
"Dahei didn't eat?" Su Yingtong can only think of this reason.
"You're the second person besides me to ride it, and you may not be used to it." As soon as the palace mirror domain clamped the horse's belly, Langfeng ran up.
Su Yingtong inertia crashed into the arms of the palace mirror domain, God, this big black is fast enough!
"Where are we going?"
"Don't you want to see the stars?" Gong Jingyu hugged her tighter, blocking the night wind for her, "I know a good place. β
Su Yingtong nestled in his arms peacefully, and she was moved by his carefulness, who said that King Xiangyuan was ruthless, at least not for her now.
Langfeng made his way through the night, and they soon came to a secluded place.
Gong Jingyu skillfully pulled the reins, and Langfeng stopped very spiritually.
"Here?"
Su Yingtong saw that they were surrounded by a small valley, and the sound of the stream could be faintly heard, and there was clear water in the distance reflecting the bright moon, shining with stars.
Not far away there is also a small wooden house, which is surrounded by a fence and looks like a house in a fairy tale.
She took a deep breath, and the air was filled with the faint scent of wildflowers.
It's really a very meaningful place.
Like Alice in Wonderland.
"It's beautiful." She was amazed.
Gong Jingyu didn't speak, but the corners of his lips were raised to show that he was in a good mood, she liked it, and he could do anything.
"We can go up to the roof and look at the stars."
After Gong Jingyu finished speaking, he didn't wait for Su Yingtong to answer, he hugged her and tapped the horse's back, Su Yingtong only felt that the scene in front of her shook for a moment, and the next moment, she stood firmly on the wooden house.
"Gong Jingyu, you're scared me to death!" She thumped him on the chest in anger.
Gong Jingyu chuckled, grabbed her little hand and held it in the palm of his hand, and helped her sit down, "Look at the sky." β
Su Yingtong looked up at the sky and couldn't help but sigh, "What a lot of stars!" It can be seen so clearly that it is like it is within reach. β
She really reached out and scratched in the air, and I really doubted that she could touch the stars with her hand raised like this!
Gong Jingyu looked at her childish movements and pulled her thin lips lightly, "You like to watch the stars so much?" β
"Do you know how to read the divination of the stars?" Su Yingtong asked him rhetorically.
"A little." Gong Jingyu is very modest.
Astrology is a book of heaven and is difficult to understand, but as long as you understand one of them, it can bring them great enlightenment, astrological trends, and even the rise and fall of national fortunes.
So he also dabbled in the stars to some extent, but he didn't know that his princess also liked to look at the stars.
At this time, Gong Jingyu was looking forward to it, she had always had wonderful thoughts, but she didn't know what the stars were in her eyes?
"Why isn't there something you wouldn't?" Su Yingtong turned his head to look at him. Such a perfect Xiangyuan king, she was embarrassed to chase after her.
Gong Jingyu smiled, "I don't know how to do anything, for example, I can't dance." β
"Poof!"
Su Yingtong couldn't help laughing.
Thinking about the way Yan sΓΉ cold King Xiangyuan danced, it was really funny!
Gong Jingyu saw that Su Yingtong was smiling happily, and his face softened. He never thought that such a woman would appear in his life before, but now that he has met it, he realizes that his previous life was so pale.
He would keep her no matter what.
Gong Jingyu clenched the small hand in his palm.
Su Yingtong felt his weight, and his mood was like honey, sweet.
She took his arm and slowly approached him.
Gong Jingyu took the opportunity to hug her and let her lean into his arms.
Su Yingtong covered his mouth and snickered, he said that he was special, who had ever seen King Xiangyuan casually touch other women?
Thinking of this, a question that had tormented her for a long time jumped out.
She bit her lip and thought about it, should she ask?
"There's nothing you can tell me straight, it's okay." Sensing the quietness of the person in his arms, Gong Jingyu looked down and saw her tangled appearance, and patted her shoulder encouragingly.
"Then you have to make sure not to get angry."
"Hmm."
"Neither shall you refuse to answer."
"Yes."
Su Yingtong asked cautiously, "Where is Xiao Zhao's mother?" β
She regretted it after saying that. Because she obviously felt that his body stiffened a lot.
She looked up at him uneasily, and saw that the deep eyes of the Palace Mirror Domain condensed, slowly exuding boundless desolation.
To be able to touch his affection like this, that woman must have occupied a very important place in his heart.
Thinking of this, the sourness in Su Yingtong's heart was about to come out.
She let go of his hand.
Gong Jingyu didn't notice it, and only after half a sound did he say hoarsely, "She's dead." β
Su Yingtong stayed there.
A deceased person, who was once loved by him, gave birth to a son for him, and died when the relationship was right, then she is destined to be imprinted in his heart forever with the best image.
So he didn't marry a concubine for so many years, until the emperor married Su Yingrou to him.
So why could she be his exception?
Su Yingtong was silent.
The atmosphere cooled down.
"Let's go back." Su Yingtong mentions yì.
She had to go back and think about it, she was afraid that she wouldn't get a response from him if she took a step, in that case how would she end up?
Now he knows that he has someone else in his heart, even if the other party is no longer alive, but because of this, she will never be able to win the person in his heart.
So forgive her for being a little intimidating.
Gong Jingyu didn't speak, he took her down to the ground and rode back.
The next day, Su Yingtong appeared in the hall with a pair of panda eyes.
Last night she insisted on going back to her yard to sleep, but Gong Jingyu didn't agree, he left her in his yard, and he didn't know where he went.
So she didn't sleep all night, and she got up as soon as it was dark and asked Qingzhu to dress herself, so let's go with the flow, and wait until I go to Hualin Temple to find the answer to go back.
She tried to cheer up and sat in her seat waiting for everyone.
Yesterday, because of Su Zhihui's arrival, they delayed their departure for another day, and they are about to leave today.
I just don't know if their prime minister's father and daughter are gone?
"Good morning, sister." A nightmarish voice came from the doorway.
Su Yingtong's face turned cold.
Su Zixuan walked into the hall, her swaying dress raised a strong smell of perfume in the air, and as the smell became stronger and stronger, she stood in front of Su Yingtong with a dazzling smile, "It looks like my sister's complexion is not too good, isn't the fever better?" My sister was worried all night yesterday, and she didn't sleep well. After speaking, he also twisted the towel and lightly touched his face with thick makeup a few times, pretending to be worried.
Su Yingtong sneered, "That's really thank you for your concern, I believe that when you see you respecting your father so much, you will also think that you are a suitable virtuous helper." implied that she pretended to attract attention in front of Gong Yilin, so it was just right, one of them was narrow-minded, the other was stupid and ignorant, and it was a perfect match.
"Of course, the blessing of entering the palace as a concubine, I am afraid that such a lowly life as my sister will not be blessed." Su Zixuan lowered her voice and finished speaking, smiled warmly at her again, and sat next to her, "Sister, did you say yes?" β
"It's a blessing or a fire kang I can't say, don't be too happy, silly sister." Su Yingtong easily took the call.
"You!"
"Hongqin, why do you say you can see these people surnamed Su everywhere? Wherever you go, you have no skin and no face, it's really annoying. Gong Meijun and Hongqin appeared at the door, and when they saw the two people sitting in the hall, they couldn't help but be disgusted.
Su Zixuan was angry with Su Yingtong at this time, and a barbaric princess came out with a voice stinging in her heart and lungs, and she was almost half angry to death, but the remaining reason told her that the other party was a princess, and she couldn't afford to offend.
I had to hold back my anger and smile to greet her, and asked Gong Meijun for peace, "The folk girl has seen the princess." β
Gong Meijun snorted, looking down on this hypocritical woman even more, she sat down, and suddenly sneezed with her hand to cover her nose, and Hongqin hurriedly handed her a silk scarf.
