Chapter 533 The capital at night
Jiang Qing looked at Gu Shenyuan embarrassedly.
Originally, Gu Shenyuan's biggest problem with camping was to live in a tent at night.
He has been pampered since he was a child, living in the palace with fine clothes and food, how can he have the experience of sleeping in a chase shop with others.
But out of concern for safety, Jiang Qing insisted on not arranging tents alone.
It's the first time we've been camping, and we don't have much experience in the wilderness, so if something happens while we're sleeping, it's really hard to know if there's no one in the tent.
Therefore, Jiang Qing felt that it was still necessary to arrange a roommate for Gu Shenyuan, so that they could also take care of each other.
In order to be more gregarious, Gu Shenyuan reluctantly agreed.
However, he only agreed to live in a tent with Jiang Qing, and if there were many people, he would rather sleep in the carriage.
At that time, Jiang Qing arranged very well, Jiang Ancestral Hall, Jiang Chen, and Xi Ze slept together, and he and Gu Shenyuan slept together, there was no problem with this.
But at night, the Jiang Temple suddenly changed its hexagram, and things became a little embarrassing.
Gu Shenyuan looked at him with sharp eyes and asked for a solution.
The only solution now is either Jiang Qing and Jiang Chen Xize in the past, or Gu Shenyuan in the past.
How could Gu Shenyuan pass at this time? It can only be Jiang Qing who moves his position.
"Don't worry, I'll move out now." Jiang Qing obediently entered the bedroom, took away the pillow, and secretly scolded Jiang Ci in his heart.
Doesn't he have heartache as a single dog? It's too much to drive others away for your own benefit!
I'll clean him up when I have time to go back.
There were too many unexpected situations in this camp, but fortunately, they were all under everyone's control.
I was so tired from playing in the afternoon, and at night, I naturally slept soundly.
In the middle of the night, Jiang Ruanyan heard the call of an owl, she opened her eyes and saw that the two roommates next to her had all fallen asleep and crept out of the tent.
This is the first time camping, how can they sleep with such excitement?
It was so quiet outside the tent that even the crackling sound of the firewood burning inside the campfire was now so clear.
She walked slowly to the edge of the camp.
Near the camp is a clearing with a wide view of the villages and towns in the distance, and the royal palace in the distance.
Under the starry sky, the lights in the palace are like bright night pearls, while the streets of the capital are very low-key in comparison.
Except for the streets where there is a night market, all the shops have closed their doors and turned off their lights and are falling asleep.
This stark contrast made Jiang Ruanyan feel strange.
Is this the case in the capital? So what would the rest of the world look like?
Is the whole town lit up and busy even at night, or is it half lit and half dark like the capital? Or are people not allowed to light lamps at night at all?
As far as she knows, there are some small towns on the border that are like this.
Looking at the beautiful scenery in front of her, her thoughts drifted farther and farther, and when she was tired of standing, she squatted on the ground and hugged her knees.
Suddenly, someone from behind her put a blanket on her.
"Come out so late, don't you know what to bring?" Gu Shenyuan blamed slightly, and also sat down next to her.
"I thought about going back for a while, but I didn't expect it to be so beautiful, the scenery here is different from what I see on the rooftop."
At that time, the two of them sleeping on the rooftop were considered to be on a high place, but after all, they were in the city, and how could they see clearly from the mountain now.
"How do you pronounce that ancient poem, I don't know the true face of Lushan, only because we are in this mountain, we used to stand on the rooftop, how can we see the most real appearance of the capital?"
Hearing this, Gu Shenyuan only felt cute, "What you see when you stand so far away, is it the real appearance of the capital?" ”
Jiang Ruanyan didn't answer, and turned to another topic.
"Sometimes I'm really happy that I'm in the capital, I can meet so many people, I can encounter so many things, but sometimes I think if I don't have in the capital, wouldn't it be better?"
She rested her head on her knees, her eyes still looking into the distance.
"Tell me about it." Gu Shenyuan was also interested, he didn't know what Jiang Ruanyan was talking about?
"If I hadn't been in the capital, I wouldn't have met Bai Ruoguan, Bingyue, the emperor, or you."
Jiang Soft's casual mention made Gu Shenyuan's heart tremble.
He never thought about what his life would have become if the two had not met.
"If I wasn't in the capital, I wouldn't have been able to meet the disaster victims entering the city, and then I would never have known that I could do so many things."
Jiang Ruanyan opened his hands and faced the capital.
On the outskirts of the city, there are apartments she built for the villagers, and not far away is a series of living quarters.
To the north is a large orchard that she has contracted.
There is her Jishitang in the city.
There is also her Xinyuan Pavilion on the most prosperous street in the capital, and there is an endless stream of guests coming in and out every day.
And the scale of the Heart Pavilion is still extending to all parts of the country, which is not something that everyone can easily do.
In other words, if a member of the royal family like Gu Shenyuan wants to have such an achievement as Jiang Ruanyan now, I am afraid it will take a lot of effort.
And it may not be able to achieve Jiang Ruanyan's current results.
"But what if one day, I don't have all of these?" Jiang Ruanyan suddenly spoke.
Gu Shenyuan knew that this little girl must have something on her mind if she didn't sleep in the middle of the night, so she didn't interrupt her just now.
"If I didn't have it, I probably wouldn't be in love, but now that I have it and lose it, I'm afraid I'll be sad."
She hugged her legs tightly, like a baby curled up in her mother's body.
"I can donate all that money, but I can't give up any of these friends."
Although he knew that she had something on her mind, Gu Shenyuan didn't know why Jiang Ruanyan suddenly thought of this.
He raised his hand and took her into his arms, whispering comfort.
"Why should you give it? They won't leave you,"
Jiang Ruanyan rested his head on Gu Shenyuan's shoulder.
"But we can't guarantee the future, they are now in pairs, and they will form their own families to live their own lives in the future......"
"But that doesn't mean they will leave you, they have their own lives, and you are a part of their lives."
The more Jiang Ruanyan thought about it, the farther it became, and Gu Shenyuan couldn't help but interrupt it.
Now Jishitang is basically a pair of pairs, and the more everyone will naturally start a family in the future, it is not ruled out that they will move out of Jishitang.
But it was just a move in the formal sense, and Gu Shenyuan believed that they would still be by Jiang Ruanyan's side.
"But what if one day they really leave, like Bingyue, what if she goes back to her hometown?"
Jiang Ruanyan looked at Gu Shenyuan with wide eyes, she also expected someone to tell her firmly and assure her that this kind of thing would never happen.
But Jiang Ruanyan also knew very well in his heart that if he said no, it would just be a child's words, who can guarantee 100% of what will happen in the future?
Gu Shenyuan sighed lightly, held her shoulder and said seriously.
"I don't know what the future of others will be, and I can't completely guarantee my future, but one thing I can be sure of is that I will always be by your side no matter what, and you will never be alone."
Gu Shenyuan's firm eyes made most of the doubts in Jiang Ruanyan's heart dissipate.
If those things can't be stopped, then at least Gu Shenyuan will accompany her, and it should be much better.
"I don't believe it." Although she felt warm in her heart, she was still unconvinced, but her body leaned on Gu Shenyuan's shoulder very honestly.
Jiang Ruanyan firmly believes in the feelings between everyone, but the better the relationship now, the more afraid she is of losing.
It may be that things when she was a child left a shadow, which is why she has such a hard time dealing with emotions like parting.
Seeing Bingyue and Nishizawa together today, I sighed in my heart that two such good people finally walked together.
In the future, Bingyue will also be taken care of, and she will naturally be very happy, but when she thinks of something farther away, she can't be happy.
"Then have you ever thought about what if you want to enter the palace in the future?"
The person who had just fallen into his arms immediately sat up straight and came to his senses.
"How is that possible?"
"How could it not be? If you marry me in the future, you will definitely enter the palace, no matter how long you stay, you will always stay in the palace for a while. Gu Shenyuan joked.
Even if he got his wish, he could leave the palace and live the life of Xianyun Yehe, but according to the rules of the palace, Jiang Ruanyan would enter the palace for a period of time anyway.
With a temperament like Jiang Ruanyan, it was difficult for her to stay in the palace for a day, and it was hard to imagine how she would spend that time.
I didn't expect Gu Shenyuan to say it so bluntly, Jiang Ruanyan immediately blushed.
"Who said I was going to marry you, I'm not shy."
After saying that, he ran back to the tent in shame, leaving Gu Shen Yuan to sit alone under the moonlight.
In fact, Gu Shenyuan is not a joke, but more of a reminder to Jiang Ruanyan.
It was true that he didn't want to get involved in state strife before, and he had no interest in the throne at all, but his brother, who had been stealing the throne, never wanted to let him go.
In the past, the matter of Jishitang helping the victims build apartments spread all over the country, and the people's hearts were longing for a while.
At this time, Gu Gangqian chose to take the initiative to go to the border camp.
Gu Shenyuan knew very well that with Gu Gangqian's level, he could only go to the point of talking on paper at most.
Therefore, Gu Shenyuan once suspected that he should have gone to the front line to investigate the enemy's situation or do some other things.
But the people who sent him always said that he stayed in the barracks all day and never went out.
He never commanded the battle, and the barracks still waited for the general's orders, and he went down to the palace as if he hadn't gotten there.
On the other hand, he also brought a lot of food, grass and medical supplies to support the front line.
It also called on nearby towns to initiate material donations, which provided great help to the barracks.
This must be understood by ordinary people, if you can't fight in the capital, Jiang Ruanyan will change places and go to the front line to do charity, and the people will love it even more.
But Gu Shenyuan deeply understood that Gu Gangqian's trip was definitely not just about charity, there must be other things.
