Chapter 359: I Can Wait for You
In the days that followed, Shao Yulan obviously lived a much more free and faster life. Because since the rain that day, it seems that there is something different about her. Although Shao Yulan didn't know why, at least it was much better than before, when she had to be angry every day and face a cold face.
Her injuries had already scabbed, and the scars had healed a lot after applying the ointment, so there was no need to worry about physical discomfort.
Moreover, since Shao Yulan had no idea of going back for the time being, her whole person has been a lot freer, and sometimes she talks and acts so naturally that even she herself is quite surprised.
So this time, when Shao Yulan followed Zhen Ming back to the capital of the Shang Kingdom, she directly mentioned to Zhen Ming that he would set up a bigger and better-looking house for herself, otherwise she would lose her temper with him.
But Zhen Ming did not refuse, but really did what the woman said, and changed her to a house where the rich family lived before, which happened to be on the street behind Zhen Ming's own general's mansion. Shao Yulan didn't want to explore the meaning of Zhen Ming's true identity, but just lived her own small life with peace of mind. And Zhen Ming is also strange, except for some things that must be processed in his own mansion, he will also spend a lot of time to put them in Shao Yulan's place.
At night, after solving the affairs of the court, he walked into the house, and just saw Feng Ran holding firewood in his hand, "This is ......"
"My lord, Miss Zhao said that she was going to cook for you today, and her subordinates couldn't stop her, so she could only help." Feng Ran said expressionlessly.
To be honest, Zhen Xuanming really didn't believe that a person who had been "pampered" in the mansion by jade dye would do this, but he actually felt a little - expectation?
He may have been tired and crazy to feel this way.
"Ah, you're already here, I just finished the last dish, just right!" Shao Yulan put down the last plate, and then sat down around the table with a smile.
"How do you know when I'm coming?" Zhen Ming raised his eyes and asked.
Shao Yulan smiled and said, "I thought you were the son of a noble family, but now it seems that you are not idle all day long, on the other hand, you should be a high-ranking official in the court." I calculated the time, and I think that you can almost solve the affairs of the court at this time. And it doesn't matter if you're late, I can wait for you. ”
- can wait for you.
In fact, the previous ones didn't listen very carefully, but only this last sentence did he really listen carefully.
Because—no one had ever told him to "wait" for him.
The phrase "waiting for him" seems extraordinarily extravagant to him.
Whether he was once the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty or the current general Ye Mingxuan, he has never felt so sincerely looking forward to returning home.
Thinking of this, Zhen Mingming's eyes unconsciously drooped slightly, and the hand on the table gradually clenched.
"You...... What's wrong? Shao Yulan saw that the man's expression was wrong, so he wondered.
Hearing this, he came back to his senses and said, "It's nothing. ”
"You scared the hell out of me, I thought you didn't like this." Shao Yulan tilted her head and said.
Zhen Ming glanced at the dishes on the table, but was stunned. This dish...... It seemed familiar, he remembered—as if he had seen it often at the jade dyeing table.
"Do you do this because you used to use them to please your family?" Zhen Ming asked directly and clearly.
Shao Yulan was stunned for a moment, and after a moment, she smiled bitterly: "I learned it secretly, she doesn't know." She has always been afraid of my suffering, so she definitely doesn't want me to do this for her. ”
"Your family really treats you very well, and they want to raise you into a noble lady who doesn't touch the spring water with ten fingers." There was a clear hint of ridicule in his words.
"Of course she treated me well! Don't talk nonsense there, or I'll be angry with you. Shao Yulan pouted.
The two ate for a while, Shao Yulan bit her chopsticks and raised her eyes to secretly glance at the man's expression, and found that the man was still a little cold, and she was a little disappointed.
She pondered for a long time, and finally couldn't hold back her curiosity and said, "By the way, there is one thing that I haven't asked you ......."
"What?" Zhen Ming held on to the chopsticks and raised his eyes to look at her.
She pursed her lips, her gaze wandered for a moment, and finally pulled the corners of her mouth and said, "Are you already married?" ”
The hand holding the chopsticks was cold, he looked at the woman, and said suddenly, "No." ”
"Yes...... Seeing that you always look like you're running around with nothing to do, it's not. Shao Yulan muttered in a low voice, then raised her head again and smiled: "What about the concubine, there should be a few of them, right?" ”
"Not either." Zhen Xuanming's eyes were deep, and he replied again.
"Huh? This didn't ...... either" Shao Yulan didn't know why, but she felt a little disappointed that she didn't ask anything, and she seemed to be relieved in her heart.
"Hearing you say that, I wish I had?" Zhen Ming suddenly asked with a smile, and there was a flash of ghostly light in his phoenix eyes.
Damn, these eyes feel so similar to His Highness! Shao Yulan's heart was full of fissure.
"No, no, I'm not thinking, if you have a wife and concubine, then you can accompany me to chat and relieve boredom when you are free." Shao Yulan said awkwardly.
"Chatting, relieving boredom...... Are you sure? Zhen Ming looked at her with a look of disdain.
Shao Yulan thought about it, as if she really said something wrong. If a man really has a wife and concubine, and she has been invited to this house all day long, it would be good if his wife and concubine didn't chop her alive, and he could chat with her to relieve boredom?
"Just let me babble." Shao Yulan sighed and said, maybe she had a too smooth life in Yuran's mansion before, and even Yuran's "beautiful as a flower" staff regarded her as a little master of the mansion, so she was actually not very good at dealing with many people.
Zhen Mingming's gaze stayed on the cheeks of Shao Yulan, who lowered his head to pick up rice, for a long time, and finally his eyes flashed, and he slowly spoke: "Tomorrow, I want to go out on a long trip." ”
"Far away?" Shao Yulan was puzzled.
"It's a matter of the DPRK and China, and I can't shirk it." 颛顼明Half-truths and half-truths.
As soon as Shao Yulan heard that it was a matter of the imperial court, she must not be able to take her, so she could only dispel the idea of asking a man to take her out with her.
"What about you...... How long are you going to be out? Shao Yulan asked unwillingly.
Zhen Ming thought for a moment and replied, "About half a month." ”
"Half a month!" When Shao Yulan heard this, she was shocked. Why is there so much to do with this person, and he has to run everywhere in three days, "You are a military general, right?" She guessed right away.
Zhen Ming did not deny it, "Yes." ”
"Do you have a general or something? Otherwise, a lieutenant general or a staff officer can do it. Shao Yulan asked.
He was silent for a moment, as if he was considering how he should answer so as not to reveal his identity, "I'm a general. ”
"It's a general......" Shao Yulan heard this, not only did she not easily ridicule her, but she calmed down, because she also began to think about the famous generals of the Shang Kingdom. The man said that his surname was Ye, but in Shao Yulan's familiarity, among the generals of the Shang Kingdom, she only knew who the general Ye Mingxuan was.
But Ye Mingxuan, he is ...... Be......
Shao Yulan didn't dare to continue thinking about it.
"I just made some contributions, so I was made an idle general by the king." Seeing the uncertain appearance of the woman's face, he had to explain otherwise.
"Oh, the idle general...... No wonder you're so casually assigned everywhere. Come to think of it, this time it must not be a big deal, so I sent you to give a hand, right? Shao Yulan thought about it, and also felt that the man in front of her should not be the prince of Zhuan, if the person in front of her was really the prince of Zhuan, then she could still stay here safely? Besides, there are so many people surnamed Ye in this world, and he said that he is just an idle general, which means that he does not have a big reputation, and it is possible that she has not heard of it.
If you don't respond, you should have acquiesced.
"Since you're really in trouble, okay, I'll stay in the house by myself, just to recuperate or something. Still, I think you'd better be careful. The people who assassinated you appeared in a row, that is, they had a purpose, I am afraid that you have offended a person with a large official position, and I think that once he finds out that your poison has been cured, it is okay, and maybe he will continue to attack you again. Shao Yulan reminded.
It was rare to hear that someone cared, although there was no change on his face, but there was still a hidden fluctuation in his heart, and he replied, "Okay." ”
And, of course, the most important thing! If you go out by yourself, you'll go out, but I'm going to be bored here, so you have to compensate me - you have to bring me a lot of nice and interesting things, and you must not come back empty-handed, otherwise I will be angry, do you hear? Shao Yulan put her arms in front of her, and her eyes were shining.
Zhen Ming paused, and finally said helplessly: "Okay." ”
Now that he's suddenly now, he really can't handle this kind of woman with a very out-of-character character. The woman in front of her seems to be smart and obedient, but in fact, her temperament is very lively, if you don't pay attention, maybe you will directly fall into her way.
Thinking of this, his dissatisfaction with Yu Ran increased a few points. No matter how much you spoil a person, it's not good to spoil people like this, right? In the end, he was the one who suffered, and what kind of sin did he create?
The next day, Shao Yulan personally sent Zhen Ming away. She looked at the back of Zhen Ming walking out of the house, and for some reason there was a trace of loss and amazement in her heart. When she wanted to grasp this feeling again, it seemed that the slightest strangeness had quietly slipped away, which really made her heart itch.
