Volume I: Painting Tang Chun Chapter 29: Guining

Qingxi lay on the bed, staring at the auspicious clouds on the top of the bed, wondering if she would be able to fall asleep tonight. It wasn't long before she heard the sound of soft footsteps outside the bed curtain again, followed by the sound of the thin tugs of getting on the bed, and soon the oil lamp beside the bed went out, and the room was dark.

In the darkness, Xiao Yizheng's soft voice sounded: "I know you didn't fall asleep so quickly." Forgot to ask if you're afraid of the dark. ”

"Out of the way, I'm not afraid." She replied softly.

"I've arranged the matter of returning to the door tomorrow, so you don't need to worry about it."

"Well, I'm not worried."

"I have had your dowry sent to the treasury of Chaolan Garden. Yesterday's fire didn't cause any damage, so you can check it out when you have time. ”

"No, you don't." Qingxi returned decisively, she turned sideways and became interested, and asked tentatively: "Is the investigation of the personnel in the house over?" The warehouse where the water went was not a big loss, was it? ”

At dinner, Uncle Zhong and Tingmeng led everyone in the palace to pay homage to the princess. She looked around and saw that there were not many of them, and it seemed that two of the female officials who had been waiting in the wedding room yesterday were not among them. At that time, she realized that Xiao Yizheng's purge of the people in the palace had begun quickly and effectively.

"Things are going well. The warehouse was already old, and there was not much damage. In the future, if you feel that there is something in the house that needs to be renovated, you can do it without overdoing it. ”

Qingxi chuckled, she did have the idea of taking care of the pond in the backyard, and he happened to mention these things. She thought for a moment and asked, "If I do some decoration and renovation for the palace, do you have a special preference?" For example, color. She paused and continued, "Do you like green or red?" ”

"I don't have any particular preferences. Green leaves and red flowers, all can be. ”

"Do you like birds?"

"Birds? Do you want to keep birds? You can raise it if you want! ”

Qingxi frowned, she didn't mean that. "That's not what I meant. Well, do you speak ventriloquism? Do you like to sleep in the wild when you wander the rivers and lakes? Have you ever strayed into a village and been watched by people? ”

Xiao Yizheng originally closed his eyes and listened to her series of questions, but suddenly opened them and looked at the bed curtain. What the hell is this girl trying to ask? Why are these questions strange? "I also wanted to inquire about the truth of those stories, and I told a secret for a story."

Qingxi was stunned, she didn't think about it, but it was also this meal that made her realize that she was also a little ridiculous, and she really asked Qingsong the question in the pamphlet she gave her. So, she subconsciously drilled into the quilt and felt a little embarrassed. "You sleep, I sleep too."

There was silence in the house for a while, and the moonlight outside the house was gentle.

Xiao Yizheng slowly closed his eyes again, but he seemed to be able to hear the sound of breath flowing in his ears. He hadn't closed his eyes since last night, and he was supposed to be extremely tired, but he couldn't sleep peacefully at the moment. For the first time in my life, I slept in the same room with a woman for the first time. Until they heard the sound of slow breathing, they opened their eyes, tilted their heads and looked at the bed curtain again, and she fell asleep first.

Qingxi slept sweetly, faintly felt that there was a light in front of him, turned over impatiently, and said lazily: "Moon Shadow, let me sleep a little longer." ”

"If you want everyone to see that we sleep in separate beds on the second day of our wedding, you can sleep again."

Qingxi kicked the quilt impatiently, frowned, and said, "You're so long-winded." ”

Xiao Yizheng lightly lifted the curtain's hand, he was bored for the first time in his life, he was instinctively a little depressed, thinking that if she was a man, she would probably have slapped it with one palm, but when he looked up at her indifferent snooze, his anger had turned into a laugh. He coughed lightly and said in a serious voice: "Since Ah Heng is unwilling to get up, then this king will go to bed on his own." ”

Ah Heng? This king?

Qingxi was clever, and opened her eyes instantly, and the person in front of her was looking at her seriously, although there was a faint smile on the corner of her mouth. She blinked her eyes twice, and quickly lifted the horn up, sleepless, and extremely awake.

Seeing her like this, Xiao Yizheng put down the curtain and said slowly: "Get up, they are going to come in and serve." ”

Qingxi immediately straightened up briefly, and saw that Xiao Yizheng was already dressed neatly. She hastened to put on her own coat again.

After she got up, Xiao Yizheng walked straight back to the bed, stretched out his hand and pulled up the sheets, folded them in twos and threes, and hurriedly walked out. Qingxi was wondering about his actions, and the attendants had already asked An to come in.

Moon Shadow and Tingmeng waited for her to wash, and the female officer who made the bed came over and pulled Tingmeng and whispered, "Sister Su, the sheet is missing." ”

As soon as the words fell, Xiao Yizheng walked back to the house again, looked around at the crowd, and said in a low voice: "The bed sheet has been put away, don't pay attention to it." ”

When the maids in the house heard this, they all bowed their heads slightly, and they were busy with a smile on the corner of their mouths.

Only then did Qingxi suddenly realize the deep meaning of putting away the sheets, and the roots of his ears were involuntarily red.

The corner of the moon shadow on the side smiled at the corner of her mouth, and she asked softly: "Princess, why are your ears so red?" ”

Qingxi almost wanted to dig a hole in the ground, and scolded lightly: "Shut up! ”

Xiao Yizheng listened to the conversation between the master and servant, raised his eyes to look at Qingxi's side face, and saw that his ears were indeed red, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a smile.

After the two of them sorted it out, they left the house and went to Ling's house. Along the way, Qingxi looked very excited, and kept lifting the curtain to look at the street scene, calculating how long it would take to get to Lingfu.

Xiao Yizheng, who was sitting on the side, just closed his eyes and recuperated, he was not used to riding a carriage, and he used to ride a lot of horses when traveling in Shangdu City. It's just that when the three dynasties returned to the door, he still wanted to tell everyone in this way that he cared about this princess very much, even if he had to be in the same place for a short period of time.

When the carriage approached Lingfu, Qingxi couldn't wait to get off. Outside the Ling Mansion, Ling Deyan was already waiting with his wife and son.

Xiao Yizheng was the first to get out of the carriage, and naturally stretched out his hand to help Qingxi behind him. Qingxi looked at the hand stretched out in front of him, raised his eyes and looked at his parents not far away with a comforting smile, so he could only hand his hand over.

The two walked to the front of the mansion, and everyone in the Ling family wanted to salute. Xiao Yizheng stepped forward to help Ling Deyan up, and also signaled Chen Ruofu not to make a big salute. "Mother-in-law, there is no need to make such a big gift."

Ling Qingsong on the side immediately smiled and said, "Then I am going to salute the princess and princess." ”

Before Xiao Yizheng could speak, Qingxi had already stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder: "Don't make trouble, this is deliberately tormenting me." ”

"In front of the prince, you must not be rude." Ling Deyan hurriedly reminded. What is this saying, the princess's face is the prince's face, what is not broken.

Xiao Yizheng smiled and waved his hand: "Brother in law doesn't need to salute." Ah Heng has a free temperament, and this king doesn't want to restrain her. When she returns to her mother's house today, as she was before, she will be today, and she will be the same. ”

Ah Heng? When the three members of the Ling family heard this title, they were all stunned, and they all smiled comfortably. Ling Deyan said: "Lord Wang, please." ”

Xiao Yizheng raised his legs and walked in front with Ling Deyan. Qingxi immediately walked to her mother's side and held her arm affectionately.

Chen Ruofu looked at her daughter carefully, and saw that her bun was also another charm, her face was full of joy, her heart finally let go, and just wanted to ask something, Qing Song came over and said with a low smile: "The booklet I gave, Princess Heng thinks it is useful?" ”

Qingxi remembered last night's conversation, and stepped on him without thinking about it. Qingsong was defenseless, and raised his foot and let out a low cry of pain.

Xiao Yizheng and Ling Deyan, who were walking in front, looked back when they heard this, and saw Qingxi staring at Qingsong, while Qingsong was grinning and raising his feet, and Chen Ruofu looked helpless.

Seeing this, Ling Deyan thought that it was not good to ask his daughter now, after all, it was the princess, so he was dissatisfied with Qingsong: "What happened to you?" ”

Ling Qingsong immediately got up seriously and said respectfully: "The princess has returned to the door recently, I am looking forward to it, I didn't sleep well last night." Just now, my eyes were not good, and I thought that there was something like a pamphlet under my feet, so I didn't walk steadily, and I stumbled slightly. In front of the prince, he immediately knew that he had lost his manners. ”

When Qingxi heard him say this, he muttered in his heart, and he was even more annoyed, what a pamphlet, but he couldn't show anything. "Brother is gone, at the foot of the elementary school." She gritted her teeth and said word by word.

Qing Song smiled faintly, looking as elegant as a light breeze.

Xiao Yizheng looked at the two brothers and sisters quietly, and warmth welled up in his heart. He looked at Ling Qingsong and said with a smile: "I have heard of my brother-in-law's name, and I have never produced such a young Tanhualang in the court. I never thought that my brother-in-law's personality was so free and hearty. ”

Qing Song also immediately said respectfully: "The prince praises falsely. Tanhualang is in the past. If the prince doesn't dislike it, call me to know it. ”

Ling Deyan also waved his hand again and again: "The prince smiled." The two brothers and sisters grew up in Sujiang since they were children, and their father-in-law, who was taught by the ministers, also upheld his attitude towards life, and their temperament jumped out of the way, especially Heng'er, and hoped that the prince would take care of him more in the future. ”

"When I travel abroad, whenever I go to Jiangnan, I always want to have the opportunity to visit Mr. Chen. Now it's okay, I also want to call Mr. Chen my grandfather. If he has the opportunity, he would like to go to Sujiang with Ah Heng to visit his old man's home. ”

When Qingxi heard this, he immediately looked at him suspiciously, this play is quite sufficient! Do you want to bring yourself back to your hometown?

"Oh?" Ling Deyan was also quite surprised, and then smiled and said, "That's very good!" Originally, this wedding was to invite the father-in-law and mother-in-law to come to Shangdu to watch the ceremony, but the two old people replied that they were too old to travel long distances, so they wished you a harmonious voice. Heng'er, your maternal grandfather and grandmother also specifically mentioned that they miss you very much, and if there is a chance, I hope you will go back to Sujiang. ”

"I'll go back!" Qingxi Hui is determined, there is light in his eyes, and he is very yearning.

Qing Song saw that he didn't care about the prince's opinion, so he immediately opened his mouth to play a round for her: "Princess, you are really too cooperative with the prince!" As soon as the prince said that he wanted to visit his grandfather, you said that you wanted to go back! Well, the piano and the song, the husband sings and the wife follows. ”

Qingxi saw that he was making fun of himself again, and he gave him an angry look.

Seeing this, Xiao Yizheng laughed out loud and said lightly: "Renting his old man to Lizhi and Ah Heng's cultivation is very successful. ”
