Chapter 250: The Big Wedding (1)!
In addition, the places indicated in (1) and (2) in the text are all selected from the grand wedding ceremony of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty!
This chapter hasn't been written yet, uh, it's exciting tomorrow, and the climax is slowly unfolding-
It's too late! Pass it first and then correct the typo again.,Girls.,Forgive me.γ
------Off topic------
But no one expected that when the crowd was crowded, there was a burst of the same wedding joy in front of them.
When the roar was heard, the music became louder and the crowd became more jubilant.
On both sides of Tiantan Street, as well as on the shops on both sides, people are crowded, people are tiptoeing, and there are voices of discussion.
"Look, look! The queen is comingβ"
Coming out of the long street of the Duke of Wei, Luan Yi walked around the imperial city, and along the way, the onlookers were paved with official roads like the red brocade. Joyful sounds, bursts of laughter, forty-eight handsome brocade men, holding a canopy yellow umbrella, sixteen sedan chair men dressed in joy, carrying flower chariots, like a long dragon mighty and mighty, followed by a large group of people and horses, heavily guarded. The crowds on both sides of the street were bustling, crowding the road, so Luan Yi traveled very slowly, and it took a while to reach Tiantan Street, the most prosperous street in Jingshi City.
It is also a happy event for the common people in the entire Jingshi City.
The wedding of the emperor and queen is not only a royal event.
In the flowers, the corners of her lips curled coldly.
When you think about it, this dignity is truly extraordinary.
Holding the golden book and golden treasure that symbolized the supreme status of the queen in his palm, Xia Chuqi turned around and handed it to Qinglan, supported by Gu Ajiao and Mama Wu, one left and one right, and put on the flower chariot. The queen's wedding is similar to the folk, but it is not similar, it is similar to the concubine, and there are more similarities. The queen's Luan Yi can enter from the main gate of Chengtian Gate and go to Kunning Palace together, while the concubines can only be carried in through the side door or the back door.
"Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live."
"I inherit the order of heaven, Qin Shao Hongtu, the way of the country, and the family-oriented. The love of husband and wife, the righteousness of Qiankun. In fact, with the respect of the ancestors, the sincerity of the co-ordination, the only value. The seventh lady of the Wei State Mansion, Xia, is the queen, and the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, Lang Lanzi, is ordered to hold the festival and present the treasure, and to perform the greeting ceremonyββ" (Note (2))
The music stopped, and Lan Zi'an read aloud.
The music began to rise, and there was a bow at the door.
A series of complicated etiquette has come to this day, and only the last step is left - greeting relatives. Of course, the emperor's wedding is different from others, and the emperor will not come to the palace to greet him like ordinary people, but only by the deacon in charge of the wedding. The deacon of the emperor's wedding was Lan Zi'an, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, and he did the entire six ceremonies, and the Duke of Wei was no stranger to him. Today, he wore a new official robe, tied with a festive red silk, and the whole person was like a son in the wind. But his slightly raised eyes inexplicably added some obscure light.
As soon as the sky dawned, a strong wind blew in Jingshi. The wind and snow weather, I don't know how to give Emperor Jianzhang face, and the snow is falling one after another, so that the red sea of joy at the gate of the Duke of Wei is stunned to add a trace of sadness.

"Go and say goodbye to your Daddy. It will be difficult to meet again in the future. β
"Oh, that's beautiful." Laughing to himself, there was no emotion on Xia Chuqi's white dough-like face. Her voice was also so smooth that there was not a single undulation, as if every word was spit out in the same tone.
"Chu Qi......?" Gu Ajiao was a little mad by her.
Xia Chuqi looked at her quietly, as if he was looking at a painting he had drawn with his own hands, and as if he was examining a game of chess on a chessboard. The gaze fell on her face, and it seemed that she had gone through the years and returned to the Rejuvenation Hall in Qinggang County. The same people, but with different mentalities.
"You treat me like a mountain, and where you are, I will be there."
Gu Ajiao bit her lower lip, and there was a slight flush on the skin that Xia Chuqi had spent a lot of effort to build, and her eyes were slightly looking forward to it, so she fell to the ground with a tone that seemed to be sorrowful, and more like grateful to Dade.
"Gillian, accompanied me into the palace, I'm afraid I won't be able to come out again, have you thought about it?"
On her white dough-like face, she has a big heavy makeup, thick eyebrows, and a big red mouth, like a drama about to appear on stage, very happy as a bride, but a little less coquettish about her daughter's family. In particular, the gaze she looked at seemed to be careless and detached after a long period of time and space transformation.
If you have to talk about the fly in the ointment, it is her face.
She was wearing the most solemn and complicated phoenix robe of the Dayan Dynasty. On the phoenix crown embedded with the nine dragons and four phoenixes, nine golden dragons hold bead drops, exude unparalleled brilliance, there are eight green phoenixes and a golden phoenix under the pearl drops, the dragon and phoenix are paved with green clouds, the crown is decorated with bead flowers and green leaves, the bottom is a golden mouth circle, decorated with jewelry, there are six fans behind the crown, three on the left and right, point the green ground, decorated with golden dragons, green clouds, bead flowers, and hang bead drops. The Xia veil on the body is woven with Zhai pattern, a total of 148 pairs, the cuffs, placket, and the skirt are all edged in red, and the gold and jade cloud dragon patterns are woven. (Note (1)) There are also medium singles, knee covering, jade leather belts, large belts, big ribbons, jade pendants and other gorgeous lights, like a red cloud around the garden of spring light, more like a peony blooming in the sun, glamorous and charming, dancing like a fairy.
That's right, today's seventh day of summer is also beautiful.
"Chu Qi, you are so beautiful today."
A crisp voice came from the back room, startling Gu Gillian, she "belched" in response, paused, pulled the new clothes on her body, changed into a sweet smile and walked into the room.
"Mama, Gillian, come in quickly."
Life is life, no matter what, she is just a servant girl of Chu Qi, just like her mother, she will always be the maid of the Duchess of Wei. And the emperor who gave birth to a handsome immortal would not look at her more. In a trance, she actually remembered the appearance of Zhao Mianze when she first saw Zhao Mianze in Yuanlin Hall. At that time, he was still the grandson of the emperor, he was already unparalleled, and now he is the emperor, I don't know what kind of brilliance it is.
What about putting on new clothes?
How about dressing up?
Her muttering voice was low, but Gu Ajiao still heard it. She stroked the clothes on her body as if she didn't know it, touched the delicate makeup on her face, and her mood became gloomy. Today is Chu Qi's wedding, and she will go to the palace with her as Chu Qi's dowry girl, and go to the palace where it is said that the bricks are made of gold. At the beginning, the fawn in her heart was happy, but she was splashed out by Mama Wu with a basin of cold water, and her heart was suddenly cold again.
"The girl's life, what kind of master."
With that, she slammed a basin of water that had been washed for the seventh day of summer into the gutter in front of the door.
"A sparrow is a sparrow, no matter how beautiful it is, it can't become a phoenix."
"What day is it, how many of you are still lazy in one place? Don't hurry up and do things yet. Mama Wu's voice fell, and the little girls laughed and scattered. Mama Wu glanced at Gu Ajiao, who was sitting on the round pestle in embarrassment, and snorted coldly.
Before dawn, in the Chutz courtyard, a large group of girls were chattering around a girl, and their faces were all envious.
"No, I'm going to faint!"
"It's so beautiful!"
"It's so beautiful!"
"Beautiful!"
On this day, it was still wind and rain, and the white snowflakes covered the imperial city, covered in silver, but not enchanting. The weather is as cold as freezing, but the mansion of the Duke of Wei is full of joy in preparing for the wedding, the red color dilutes the cold silence brought by the cold, from the front hall to the backyard, from the master to the girl, all with a smile on their faces, the whole mansion, there is a kind of joy, the red brocade spread out from the door, seems to extend to the end of the sky.
But no matter how things develop now, the twenty-seventh day of the twelfth lunar month of the twenty-seventh year of Hongtai has finally come.
Later, in her worries, there was another big horse.
The horse never flew back.
However, she was not busy with the etiquette taught by her grandmother. From early morning to sunset, from snow to snow, in addition to the three things that she repeats every day - eating, sleeping, and pretending to be Gillian, she reads, writes, teases birds, embroiders, and is very busy. She had to keep herself busy so that she wouldn't worry about the war in the south, not about Zhao Zhu's current situation, and not about whether he had received her letter or winter clothes.
They were preparing for her wedding, and Xia Chuqi was also busy.
The grandmother in the palace, the girl in the house, go in and out every day, and everyone is busy.
After the fifteenth day of the lunar month, the Wei Mansion became even busier.
~
In her mouth, there is only self-deprecation. Self-deprecation is a way for her to live.
Ah Qi is not an ordinary person, she will never talk about her sorrow to others.
Love is a double-edged sword, which can make people overcome obstacles and add infinite strength to it, and it can also cut people into blood, and they are no longer powerless to love. However, there is no right or wrong in love, sometimes it just hurts deeply. Knowing that the other party is not wrong, and he is not wrong, he just can't go anywhere, and he is with her and Hasar, and the ravines that are separated by him are not "ruthlessly" dug up, but are precisely chiseled by "affectionate".
talked too much, and Li Miao didn't say it later.
People who are deeply trapped in love are suffering from self-knowledge.
A soft word, a hard word, no matter how angry Li Miao was, choked back into his stomach.
"Besides, this is one step closer to our revenge?"
Li Miao was forced by her appearance of not caring for herself, and occasionally hurt her. But Xia Chuqi has always been sharp-toothed, especially when she pinched Li Miao's "short child" in her hand, and said it sentence by sentence, all for reason, "I'm not you, except for your desert brother, you have no one else to marry." Actually, cousin, think about it, how can you be the princess of Jin and be honored and noble as the queen of Dayan? I have climbed the high branches, and you should bless me. β
"Give you a blacksmith, a stonemason, a carpenter, would you like it?"
This sentence is often used to prevaricate Li Miao on the seventh day of the first summer.
"It's just marrying, marrying anyone is marrying."
Li Miao was reluctant, but no matter how she persuaded her, Xia Chuqi didn't seem to be impressed.
As for Li Miao, who has been worried about Xia Chuqi, he often goes to the Wei Mansion to see her these days, and he is worried about her in turn. After all, the two of them are cousins, and Li Miao is more concerned than anyone else about the wedding of Xia Chuqi. What's even more worrying is that she obviously hates Zhao Mianze, and she is still screwing up to marry into the palace to suffer.
In the Ding'an Hou Mansion, a little girl was added, and Zhao Runa's face seemed to be more joyful. But she was happy, the old lady of the Hou Mansion saw that she was so unproductive, she didn't stare at her stomach, but took care of her "adopted daughter" all day long, and she couldn't get angry, and the relationship between her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was still tense. But Zhao Runa is the eldest princess, and this title is enough for her to walk sideways like a crab in the Hou Mansion. Especially since she played a majestic role last time, even her bitter sister-in-law has been restrained for a long time, and no matter how much resentment there is in her belly, she doesn't dare to confront her in person.
In any case, he will not be able to rush back to participate in this world-renowned wedding.
In addition, Chen Daniu, who went to Liaodong to act for defense, has never returned to Beijing. Some people rumored that he was probably taken across the river by the old man of Gogurg, and went to Gogurk as a guest, and he couldn't think about it. But this is just a folk rumor, but the court knows that now there is a war in the south, and there is a Ding'an Hou in the north, which is also a reassuring pill for Emperor Jianzhang.
Since November, Wuren Xiaoxiao, who has been living in the banquet courtyard, has not been out, and after her rich dowry arrived in Beijing from Beidi, Yuan You placed her in the banquet courtyard. There doesn't seem to be any intersection between the two people. Although some people said that they saw Grandpa Yuan enter the banquet courtyard in the dark, but this matter did not make much noise except for adding another joke to Grandpa Yuan's Fengyue.
But no matter what the outsiders said, the people involved were quite silent.
The moon is very cold, and there are many winds and snows.
Since ancient times, there have been many strange things in the royal family! Since the news of this unknown channel reached the people, it soon caused a small climax of discussion, and even exceeded the excitement of the "emperor's wedding", and the degree of dog blood was comparable to that of Emperor Hongtai's new monarch 27 years ago, and he accepted the favorite concubine of the previous dynasty into the palace.
The common people are looking forward to the New Year, buying New Year's goods, and also waiting for the grand scene of Beijing and the ten-mile red carpet on the day of the emperor's wedding. In addition, the people are also laughing about the strangeness of King Jin's wedding - no one thought that King Jin would not be able to return to Beijing, and he would marry the bride on behalf of Yuan You, a beautiful son of Qin Huai.
In the twenty-seventh year of Hongtai, the entire Jingshi was in an impetuous atmosphere.

"Ye Gong is just a dragon!"
She didn't look back, and Xia Chuqi didn't hear her words, just sighed.
"Zifei fish, how do you know the love of fish?"
Ah Ji's figure stopped at the courtyard gate, and it took a long time to return.
She spoke quickly and spoke a long list.
Xia Chuqi looked at her back and sneered, "That person, what's so good?" In addition to being more powerful and handsome, he is simply a complete scumbag stallion. You care about him so much, but he doesn't know at all, are you worth it? You are a good person, why should you be so wronged by yourself? β
After saying this, she staggered to leave.
"It's no better to live than to die."
Ah Ji was slightly stunned, and tied the scabbard on the mud-stained clothes on his body.
Xia Chuqi tilted his shoulders in front of her, and asked, "You're not afraid of death?" β
"Come in when you come back, it's cold outside. I'm leaving. β
Ah Ji looked at her and slowly stood up, but did not answer the question.
Xia Chuqi hooked his lips and asked lightly, "Why did you let me go?" β
At the risk of killing her head, why did she?
Before, she just kept wondering why Ah Ji didn't follow her when she left the Chutz Courtyard like this. Now seeing her look of "sitting on the ground and waiting for death", I realized that this "Dayan version of Mulan", who has always been dressed as a woman, actually intended to let her escape, and thought that she would escape forever.
In fact, she didn't want to escape when she left Chutz Courtyard before. If she wanted to escape, she had many options, and even that underground passage would be more convenient than that. However, before she left Chuci Courtyard, she didn't know that Zhao Mianze had put her under house arrest, let alone that there were at least 5,000 guards inside and outside the Wei State Mansion.
Xia Chuqi stood quietly in front of her, his eyes focused and motionless.
"Why did you come back again?"
At the door of the Chutz Courtyard, Ah Ji sat on the steps alone with a steel knife. She didn't seem to feel the snow in the sky, nor the dampness on the steps, and her body didn't move until she approached, and she suddenly came back to her senses, and when she looked up, she seemed to be surprised.
Under Lu Hui's relieved gaze, Xia Chuqi hugged the hand warmer pillow, and still led Qinglan back the same way.
Dongfang Qingxuan was a good talker, and after half a cup of tea, she was sent back to the Wei State Mansion.
"It seems that on the twenty-seventh day of the lunar month, this seat still has to carry a sedan chair for the King of Jin."
It took a long time for him to send a sentence with the night wind.
Dongfang Qingxuanfeng's eyes darkened, and his body shook slightly.
"I'm not me, I've never been me. If it weren't for me, he would still be him. For the rest of my life, if I can protect him with my sick and crippled body, even if I cut off my head and scatter my soul, I am willing. In this time and space, if there is anyone worthy of me doing this, there is only one Zhao Bottle, and no one else. β
Is it worth it? At the beginning of the summer, Qiqi's throat tightened, and he couldn't make a sound. Thinking that he would never have any contact with Zhao Zhu from now on, he could only belong to another woman, play chess and herd horses with another woman, sleep with another woman and have children, and drink with another woman, he would hunt mink for another woman and prepare embroidered shoes for another woman...... And she had to cater to other men with a smile, to intrigue with his endless three palaces and six courtyards, and to live the kind of life that she was most tired of and had no freedom, and her heart seemed to be entangled in a thin cotton thread. Wrap it around and it hurts for a minute, and if you wrap it around again, it hurts again until her lips tremble.
"Are you worth it for him?"
"There is giving, there is gain."
"Are you really willing to do it?"
"No waiting."
"Not waiting?" He laughed.
"If he hadn't died, he would have gone to Beiping with Princess Wuren and would grow old."
At the beginning of the summer, he subconsciously didn't start, not looking at Dongfang Qingxuan.
"What if he hadn't died? You're married, how will he behave with himself? β
With a light sigh, Dongfang Qingxuan slowly hooked his lips, and the wide sleeves of the big red python robe flicked slightly.
"If he dies, it is his life." Xia Chuqi tried his best to calm his emotions and not let his voice reveal the slightest worry, "People are going to die, he will die, I will die, it's just sooner or later." After all, if he dies, I will avenge him, and I will not lose him. β
Her pupils shrunk slightly, and the pain of her nails digging into her flesh brought her back to her senses.
It seems that she avoided even Jia Yi yesterday, which is the right choice.
Zhao Bottle's side must also have such a "black skin", right?
That afternoon they dug trenches together, and in the evening he set fire to the grain and grass.
It was the brother she used to trust, the brother who would sing songs for everyone.
Xia Chuqi looked at his mouth, and his mind thought of black skin for no reason.
"Hehe, hate. But as much as you hate me, I have to tell you. Dongfang Qingxuan withdrew her gaze from her, a pair of sparkling phoenix eyes, like adding a touch of snow outside the car window, the demonic spirit is still the same, but there is no longer half of the elegance and calmness of the past, "Today I received a tip-off that Zhao Mianze's people have secretly sneaked into the south, and they have a secret order. This time, Zhao Bottle couldn't come back. Because no one knows who the person who will be ordered by the carp's whistle will be. It is possible that he is by Zhao Zhu's side, and he will even be very close to him, and he is a brother he trusts. You don't know how powerful a carp whistle is. When these people are not ordered, he is completely loyal to his master, and when he is ordered, he will not hesitate to kill. β
Dongfang Qingxuan's pupils shrank, but she smiled, "I can't wait to eat your flesh and drink your blood." β
Xia Chu Qi clenched his fists heavily, and his long nails pinched into his palms, "Yes, I hate." β
The corners of Dongfang Qingxuan's lips sank, slightly bitter, "Unless, you hate me." β
She looked at her lightly, her face gloomy, and she didn't say a word.
"How can you, a woman, have such strange ideas?" Dongfang Qingxuan didn't understand what she meant by "not being allowed in the world", he scolded with a smile, he reached out with one hand, broke her shoulder, and made her face him, and smiled in a clear voice, "As long as you want, I will have a way to leave, and we will leave far away." What bullshit phoenix life, what is contrary to the world, what heavenly way, has nothing to do with you. β
"I will not tolerate the world, and I will mess up this world."
The corners of her lips lifted, and she slowly pulled away a smile.
It was just that by accident, she did not see or hear his eagerness.
If at this moment, Xia Chuqi's eyes did not look at the car window, she would see Dongfang Qingxuan's expression.
"I ......" Dongfang Qingxuan rushed out of his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, and seemed to want to explain something to her, but before he finished speaking, he swallowed it back again.
Speaking of this, without waiting for Dongfang Qingxuan to answer, her eyes turned away, through the curtain, looking at the rows of shops at the end of the long street, looking at the lights lit up in this prosperous capital, and said coldly: "This country is the emperor's country, this city is the emperor's city, you are in it, even if you are under one person, above ten thousand, you can't resist the imperial power." It's like...... You're ruthless enough to kill my little nineteen. β
"Dadudu, I'm a little curious, if you don't run in vain, what can you do?"
Xia Chuqi looked at his mouth, couldn't bear the sourness in his heart, and smiled.
"So, I'm running for nothing today?"
Seeing her pondering, her eyes were red, Dongfang Qingxuan squinted, glanced at her and chuckled.
Her life and death, joys and sorrows, and her hatred and revenge, are no longer borne by Zhao Zhu for her.
If the two of them are a "bad relationship", then it will not be continued.
If Zhao Tuo wants to change the world for him, it is a kind of thing that violates the way of heaven, causing chaos in the world and ruining the lives of people, she is a scourge. There has already been a matter of Xiao Nineteen, and she doesn't dare to use Zhao Bottle to compete with fate anymore. has already harmed her daughter, and she can't harm Zhao Zhu anymore.
Her "phoenix life" is the phoenix life that follows Zhao Mianze.
Trapped in the Chutz Academy, she thought hard about the words of the Tao and suddenly realized.
And at such a time, her body ...... But he is not angry.
The big wedding is imminent, Zhao Bottle is on the battlefield, but he can't come back.
She suddenly felt that maybe everything was really fate.
On that day, the monk Daochang said that she was not a person in the world, she belonged to an abnormal existence, she was chaotic into time and space, entangled with Zhao Zhu, and led to "the emperor and the stars are fighting, and the world is chaotic", which is contrary to the world. asked her to give up the love between her and Zhao Zun in order to be safe. But she didn't believe in evil. Dao Chang told Zhao Zhu that "the son's biological mother died", but she insisted on going her own way, not believing in fate, she didn't die, but she killed her little nineteen. Yesterday, the pony went out to do the "flying sport", and was summoned by Dongfang Qingxuan, and brought back the news of the carp whistle, she was really panicked, she didn't dare to think about what kind of danger Zhao Bottle would face, and whether she would respond to her "evil of love" again.
She covered her ears, and when she knew what he meant, she smiled lightly, "Thank you, Grand Duke, I like that place in the palace very much." After a pause, she said, "Don't they all say that I am the body of the phoenix?" Since I am destined to marry Zhao Mianze as my wife, then I will obey this fate. β
Coming back to his senses in a trance, Xia Chuqi was shocked with cold juice.
"Chu Qi!" Dongfang Qingxuan's hand finally grabbed her shoulder, "What's wrong with you?" β
ββ¦β¦ Ah Qi ...... Ah Qi ......, "Xia Chuqi can't hear him, but he can hear Zhao Bottle calling her."
"Don't you know the slightest fear? Achu, turn back. Dongfang Qingxuan was still talking.
"......" She didn't hear and didn't react.
"You've been to the cannibalistic palace once, it's not that you don't know the danger."
One hallucination after another made her brows furrow, and the cold sweat of the winter wet her back.
"Ah Qi...... Ah Qi ......"
She seemed to see the "Jin" flag in southern Xinjiang again, and saw the front hooves raised by the big bird.
The sound of horses' hooves knocked on her heart.
Xia Chuqi and Dongfang Qingxuan have known each other for so long, and the two have had countless jokes, but he rarely makes such a serious promise. Is it the wind that blew his eyes, or the snow melted his heart, such a murderous and unblinking devil can also say "for a lifetime" tenderly?
Life? Is it easy to promise a lifetime?
Dongfang Qing Xuanfeng's eyes bent slightly, "I don't know, I'll tell you." If you are willing to leave with me, I will take care of you for the rest of your life. β
Xia Chuqi's heart burst out, and then his complexion softened, "No, I don't know." β
"Xia Chu, I think you know my intentions."
Dongfang Qingxuan was stunned, his luxurious and bright figure stiffened, as if carved on the wall of the luxurious carriage, and he didn't move. The wind outside the car window was still blowing coldly, and the banner of the brocade guard was "hula". The snowflakes were also more dense, and the canopy of the car was white. After a long period of cold silence that seemed like death, Dongfang Qingxuan's blocked throat was released.
Grace and righteousness are cut off in four words, if there is a weight of a thousand catties.
"No one forced me, I volunteered. Haven't the Metropolitan Governors heard, 'I am willing to buy a thousand dollars?' If you are here to persuade me today, then you don't need to. When your embroidered spring knife was swung at my child, there was a ...... between me and you" After a pause, the smile on the corner of her lips expanded, and she became cold inch by inch, "You and I have already broken off." β
Xia Chuqi's body stiffened slightly, clenched his fists, and calmly met his eyes.
"No one can force you into that imperial city. Neither can the emperor. β
The corners of Dongfang Qingxuan's demonic lips rose slightly, seemingly smiling, but with a touch of loneliness.
"You should know why I came."
"You told me this for forgiveness? Good. I gotta say, congratulations, you made it. My hatred for you is not as strong as I imagined-" With a drag on his voice, Xia Chuqi pursed his mouth. Even if there were brocade guards guarding outside, she knew that it would be "very inconvenient" for each other to talk too much. After a pause, she looked at Dongfang Qingxuan lightly, and no longer continued the secret topic of the carp whistle, but said, "You won't come here today to ask me for your gratitude, right?" β
"I only know one thing about the carp whistle, but I don't know the other. It is impossible to find out who they are. β
Her inexplicable words were a little strange. If you change someone else, you will definitely not understand. But Dongfang Qingxuan was not the slightest surprised, only lowered his empty left hand slightly, and smiled lightly, "You know in your heart that this seat has never asked for your thanks, let alone your forgiveness." After a little silence, he saw that she was silent, and laughed at himself, his creamy face shining with a bewitching and strange light under the faint lamp of the car wall. After a pause, he lifted the curtains, looked out, and lowered it again, his voice so low that he could barely see the movement of his lips.
Xia Chuqi sneered, his eyes suddenly cold, "No matter how much you do, I won't thank you." I won't forgive you. β
Dongfang Qingxuan's face was slightly warm, and he smiled softly, "It's nothing more than barley and grass, nothing unusual, I'm afraid it's homesick for a long time, so I ate a few more bites." β
After a while, Xia Chuqi was the first to speak, and said word by word was extremely weird, "The pony flew back from you, I touched its sac, it was bulging, and I don't know how much it ate." Alas! Look at it, it hasn't eaten since last night. What did you give it, Governor? β
But between the eyebrows that looked at each other, there was an undercurrent surging, and there was a faint storm flowing.
The car was quiet, and the two people did not speak.
Knowing that the two of them had something to say, without waiting for Dongfang Qingxuan to open his mouth, Rufeng spontaneously led a group of brocade guards to withdraw a few zhang away, surrounded the black-painted carriage in the middle, and became nervously vigilant.
The wheels rolled on the long street, and the bend around the corner stopped.
The wind is still sparing no effort to ravage the world, and the scene is still vague on the long street where rain and snow are flying.
Chopping first and then playing is Dongfang Qingxuan's usual style of doing things, and it is his personal style to never care about whether others are happy or not. In Jingshi City, he went his own way, and he was used to being domineering, Lu Hui stiffened his body, and he didn't advance or retreat, and he was stiff for a while. But Xia Chuqi didn't care whether he should or not, and he didn't wait for the wind to help, so with a sneering smile, he got into Jinyiwei's car.
"What are you doing in a daze, why don't you ask Miss Seven to get in the car?"
Dongfang Qingxuan didn't care about him, glanced at Rufeng who was standing quietly on the side, and his eyes sank.
"This ......" Lu Hui was still hesitating.
The corners of Dongfang Qingxuan's lips hooked slightly, "General Lu, don't be nervous." After half a cup of tea, if this seat can't return the seventh lady to Zhao, he will go to see His Majesty, and he will never be affected by General Lu. β
"The Metropolitan Governor, the last general has made a military order, and he really doesn't dare without His Majesty's handwritten edict."
Lu Hui's face was all blue and red, and the half of his face that had been beaten by Xia Chuqi had faint red marks, but although he didn't dare to offend Dongfang Qingxuan, he didn't dare to let go easily after getting Zhao Mianze's death order.
Accustomed to her bitterness, Dongfang Qingxuan smiled lightly at her, but did not answer her, but turned to look at Lu Hui, who was embarrassed, raised his hand and flashed the waist card of the Governor of Jinyi Wei, and said softly: "General Lu, I have a few words to talk about with Miss Seven, borrow it first, and send it back after half a cup of tea, can you give this seat a thin noodle?" β
Xia Chuqi looked at him and raised his chin slightly, "The Metropolitan Governor is so idle today that he is moldy, come out to show his appearance?" β
"Miss Seven really has a way of playing prestige, and I have seen it today."
Immediately afterwards, a black-painted carriage slowly slid over, stopped at the door of the Wei State Mansion, the slightly opened car curtains, revealing a very delicate face, he smiled with his chin, phoenix eyes slanted, and the big red lantern in front of the mansion was reflected together, full of grace, the posture of the city.
At this time, two crisp high-fives came.
"Bang Bang ββ!"
"Little lover, let's go!"
Xia Chuqi swept him with his eyes closed, gave him a provocative look of "look at what you do with me", and turned to glance at Qinglan.
Seeing her smiling and scolding, Lu Hui stiffened in place, unable to speak.
Xia Chuqi smiled and bowed his head slightly, "General Lu, do you know that Lao Tzu hates being coerced the most!" With that, she ignored it and walked straight past him. Lu Hui was in a hurry, and she got up to chase after her, she turned her head sharply and smiled, "Also, you think I'm a good person?" If you don't die, what does it matter to me? The previous slap was for your father, don't take the body given by your parents to serve you at every turn, it's stupid! β
"Miss Seven......" Lu Hui covered his face and looked up at her, stunned.
Shaking her wrist vigorously, she sneered, "Don't get out of the way yet!" β
This slap Xia Chuqi was too heavy, and her palm was numb.
"If you want to die, go far away, don't die in front of me."
Xia Chuqi raised his eyebrows, suddenly stepped forward, raised his hand and slapped it, only to hear a "pop", the steel knife in Lu Hui's hand fell in response, and the "sonorous" sound was endless. And his thin face was also slapped by Xia Chuqi, and red marks suddenly appeared.
"Yes, the Admiral is ridiculous! But it can only be so. As soon as he gritted his teeth, Lu Hui pressed the blade of his knife and wanted to wipe his neck.
With a light snort, Xia Chuqi looked down at him and smiled, "Don't you think it's ridiculous to threaten me with your life?" β
Zhao Mianze knows her stubborn temperament, once she plays tricks, I'm afraid that Lu Hui and Ah Ji won't be able to stop it, so she taught it, right?
Such a response will naturally not be something that Lu Hui came up with by himself.
Xia Chuqi squinted slightly.
Lu Hui bit his lip violently, and pulled out the saber on his waist with a "swish", the bright blade was directly against his neck, the half-squatting body had a straight back, but there was a helpless plea in his eyes, "The last general will not dare to offend Miss Seven, nor dare to disobey Your Majesty, so he can only die to apologize." β
"What about embarrassing you?" At the beginning of summer, Qi's eyebrows furrowed.
"Please Miss Seven, don't be embarrassed by the last general."
Lu Hui's heart tightened, ignoring the dampness on the ground, and knelt down suddenly.
"Humph!" Xia Chuqi snorted coldly, "Dare to stand in front of you, what else don't you dare?" β
After another clichΓ©, Lu Hui's brows furrowed.
"The last general will not dare."
"What a faithful young general. Hehe, what if Miss Ben has to go to the house? What do you do? Xia Chuqi patted his warm hand and hugged the peach, glanced at him, and on his little face, which was cool by the snow wind, a wicked smile bloomed, and under the embellishment of the flying snow, it looked particularly unruly, "Isn't General Lu going to slaughter me?" β
"See Miss Seven, forgive me, the last general will not be able to disobey His Majesty's order."
"I'll just walk around here, if General Lu is not at ease, he can send someone to follow."
Glancing at Lu Hui, her toes rubbed the snowflakes that had just landed, and said neither lightly nor heavily.
Just a little more glance, you can see that the Wei Mansion has deployed a lot of troops openly and secretly. According to this level of vigilance, it is enough to pull people to the battlefield in southern Xinjiang to fight a battle, where is the practice of preventing small nights? It seems that Zhao Mianze is jealous of Zhao Zhu has reached the point of almost perversion, Zhao Zhuren is still in southern Xinjiang, he is nervous like this, if he stays in Beijing, what should he do? Will you take an iron bucket and put her up?
What he said was reasonable, but Xia Chuqi sneered even more.
"For the safety of Miss Seven, you are not allowed to leave the house without His Majesty's instructions."
"It's weird! There are also bandits in the Jingshi. Without waiting for Lu Hui to finish speaking, Xia Chuqi sneered, "So what?" β
Lu Hui bowed his head respectfully, apologized to her first, and then looked serious, "It's just that Your Majesty has an order, and when the wedding of the emperor and queen is approaching, the Jingshi not only has envoys from all over the world to congratulate, but also the three sects and nine streams are pervasive." Nowadays, the people in the city are complicated, bandits are rampant, and small people are rampant......"
"The last general will not dare!"
The young general was none other than Lu Hui, who was guarding the Wei Mansion with Hong Aji. Because Zhao Mianze recently sent 3,000 Praetorian Guards over, the two divided the work. Ah Ji guarded the inner courtyard of the Chuci Courtyard, and Lu Hui led the people to guard the periphery, surrounding the Wei State Mansion. At this time, although Lu Hui didn't know how Xia Chuqi got rid of Hong Aji and won the Chuci Academy, he couldn't let her leave this level no matter what.
"General Lu, is this trying to stop me from leaving the mansion?"
Xia Chuqi slanted his eyes, put his hands in the warm pillow in front of him, and did not answer the question.
"Miss Seven, are you going out of the house?"
At the beginning of the summer, facing the misty wind and snow, he led Qinglan through the eaves of the mansion, crossed the threshold, and was about to walk down the steps of the mansion with her skirt, and behind the wet stone lions, a few people strode over, led by a general wearing a red tasseled helmet.
The sparks reflected the flying snow, shining with a faint cold light.
It was not yet dark, and the corner lamp in front of the house was already lit.
The wind is strong and the snow is heavy.
Dayan Jingshi City is known as "hot in summer and cold in winter", the wax moon is already the middle of winter, sleet falls overwhelmingly, sprinkled on the long street paved with green bricks in front of the Duke of Wei's mansion, the snow is wet and melted to the ground, frozen hands, frozen feet, frozen ears, frozen people up and down a piece of cold.
