Chapter 108: Candles in the Cave Room

Although Li Xuanqing's wedding was interrupted by this accident, there was no accident and it still ended as scheduled. Everyone at the banquet knew that Li Xuanqing was not good at drinking, so they didn't embarrass him much, but took this opportunity to start a sorority. At the same time, the military and officials on duty in various localities also visited the poor and asked about their suffering, helped those who were lonely, widowed, old and weak who had no food and clothing, and did their best to help the victims tide over the difficulties.

However, these have nothing to do with Li Xuanqing for the time being. He was sent to the Qianqiu Hall by the hip-hopping crowd, and then returned to Changqing Palace to continue drinking and joy, after all, in addition to Li Xuanqing's wedding or Chinese New Year's Eve today, there are still many programs for the big guys. Even the people of Chang'an, who had just settled down outside the palace, began their own entertainment activities. So Li Cunxiao winked at Li Xuanqing and pulled Xu Tianxiang and Wu Huan away with a smile.

As soon as they dispersed, the huge palace of the Thousand Autumn Hall was left with these palace maids who were responsible for taking care of them. As Li Xuanqing walked into the dormitory in the Qianqiu Palace, Qiaoxi, who covered the crown of his head, sat at the head of the bed, quietly waiting for Li Xuanqing's arrival.

Li Xuanqing waved his hand to let the palace maid next to him push out of the dormitory, walked in front of Qiaoxi, took a deep breath and smiled: "Qiaoxi, I'm here." He walked over and picked up the weighing rod on the side and picked up Xipa, looked at the smiling and beautiful face, sat down beside her and said, "This time, no one can separate us." ”

Qiaoxi shook her eyes, looked at the surrounding layout and said with a smile: "I suddenly feel that this ancient wedding is quite beautiful, the red candles are shining, the copper mirror is shining, and the room is full of warm atmosphere." ”

Li Xuanqing hugged her in his arms and said with a smile: "This is not the ancient times, this is the present." We are now in ancient times, so it is natural to meet the situation. ”

Qiao Xi smiled, she didn't want to have so many things to have, for her, there was nothing to complain about with Li Xuanqing by her side, it was good to live in any era, so when she heard Li Xuanqing's words, her soft body leaned into Li Xuanqing's arms and closed her eyes. However, Li Xuanqing was a little emotionally moved by his own words, it has been 20 years since he came to this life and parted with his former relatives and friends, probably they all thought that they were missing forever, right? I didn't expect that I would come to another era in a parallel world, and I met her in my previous life in this troubled world.

Looking at Qiaoxi beside him with his eyes closed, Li Xuanqing smiled, reached out and pinched Qiaoxi's nose, and said with a smile: "Are you tired today?" Let's rest early, or tomorrow we will stare at a dark circle, and I will probably be laughed to death by them. ”

Hearing this, Qiao Xi opened his eyes, a flush flashed on his face, turned his face away, and hid behind Li Xuanqing.

Seeing this, Li Xuan's palm was sent, and the palace veil hanging on the side fell down layer by layer, and he reached out to hug Qiaoxi's body to the bed.

"Big brother, why don't you put out the candle, it's not good." Qiaoxi's voice was full of flattery, soft, soft, just like her character, which made Li Xuanqing's heart melt. However, a hint of naughtiness flashed on Li Xuanqing's face, and he whispered in Qiaoxi's ear: "If you close your eyes, you won't be able to see." ”

Qiaoxi's face turned even redder when she heard this, but she closed her eyes according to the words, and her pretty face was like a ripe apple. The breath in the dormitory suddenly became extremely ambiguous and low.

Looking at the bright red lips in front of him, Li Xuanqing didn't want to restrain his love thread, so he kissed him deeply. Qiaoxi let out a soft sound and was immediately sealed. The two of them are really upside down at the moment, the fragrant wind is surging, the love is difficult to send, and they turn into silk and are entangled.

The spring night is worth a thousand gold, and the flowers are fragrant and the moon is cloudy.

The sound of the pavilion is thin, and the swing courtyard is heavy at night.

The winter night is slow, but the Qianqiu Hall is like a spring night, the wedding night, everything is so harmonious, so beautiful, that even the moon in the sky is shy, quietly wrapping a veil for himself, the hazy moonlight is soft, so that everything can not be seen clearly.

The good times are always so short, although the winter nights are long, but for Li Xuanqing and Qiaoxi, the newlyweds, it is always not enough, and the relationship between the two worlds is final, and both of them can't wait to melt themselves into each other. This scene was upside down, and the harmony of the piano and the serene gradually disappeared until the second half of the night, accompanied by the soft sound of crying and complaining. The Thousand Autumn Hall, which had returned to peace, was filled with serenity.

Early the next morning, that is, on the first day of the first month of 889, the land of Guanzhong spent the first stable and peaceful New Year. Listening to the sound from outside the palace, Li Xuanqing opened his eyes, looked at Qiaoxi who was still sleeping in his arms, smiled slightly, and reached out to play with her hair that was scattered by her own madness last night.

Qiaoxi, who was asleep, vaguely felt that her face was caressed by something, itchy, and couldn't help frowning her delicate brows, and the snow-white soft wattle slapped it unconsciously, but accidentally lifted the quilt covering her body. Looking at the skin exposed to the air and the bumpy figure, Li Xuanqing felt that the emotions in his heart were touched again, and he almost became dishonest again. However, his action immediately woke up Qiaoxi, and when he saw Li Xuanqing's big hand covering his chest, his face suddenly turned red again, and he muttered in his mouth: "Big brother, don't want it, okay?" ”

Li Xuanqing didn't speak, just quietly looked at Qiaoxi beside him, and there was a trace of tenderness in his quiet eyes, so that Qiaoxi also looked at him with Li Xuanqing's gaze. The two looked at each other and smiled, and then Li Xuanqing kissed Qiaoxi again. Li Xuanqing's kiss was hot, with a distant breath that made Qiaoxi completely addicted to it. And with the sinking of Qiaoxi, Li Xuanqing also turned into a wolf again and suppressed Qiaoxi's soft body.

Early morning is always a time that can arouse the most sincere feelings in people's hearts, and Li Xuanqing and Qiaoxi are the same, and the Qianqiu Palace, which has been peaceful for half the night, is once again confused and ambiguous. This frantically whispering gasp continued until dawn.

"Big brother, you're too bad." Qiaoxi, who finally calmed down, looked at Li Xuanqing, who was smiling evilly, and said in shame: "It's okay now, the palace maids and sisters outside probably heard it, and these Qiaoxi don't dare to see them at all." ”

"If you hear it, you can hear it, anyway, we're already husband and wife." Li Xuanqing said nonchalantly, and then saw Qiaoxi's embarrassed look and flushed pretty face, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, they have been in the palace for many years, they won't talk nonsense, and they don't dare to laugh at you." From today on, you are the wife of the general of Sanpin, and if they laugh at you, you will bully back. ”

Li Xuanqing's words made Qiaoxi's face slowly improve, but Qiaoxi was a newcomer after all, and where could he withstand Li Xuanqing's expedition this night, so at this time, the two calmed down, and their eyelids suddenly began to fight. But after all, today is the first day of the first lunar month, and lying in bed is not a good thing. So he still endured his fatigue and urged Li Xuanqing to get up. But when she moved, her brows immediately furrowed, and a low moan came from her mouth.

Li Xuanqing was dressing, but when he heard Qiaoxi's moan, he immediately understood what was going on, and hurriedly hugged her in his arms, and when he heard the words, he said: "Otherwise, don't get up, have a good rest today, anyway, no one dares to come to the Qianqiu Palace." ”

Qiaoxi glanced at Li Xuanqing, but still stood up and wrapped himself in the quilt and began to look for clothes. The two of them didn't alarm the palace maids outside, and after a long time, they finally dressed and groomed and walked out of the Qianqiu Palace.

"Big brother, where are we going?" Chang'an is windy in winter, Qiaoxi is dressed in a pink grassland suit, a delicate mink coat is put on the outside, and a white wool textile skirt is worn underneath, with long hair draped obliquely, and a pink bow hairpin is embellished in the middle, which is very good-looking.

Li Xuanqing said with a smile: "Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and it is the first day of our wedding, so naturally we have to go to the teacher and eldest brother to have tea and then pay New Year's greetings." It seems that there are very few entertainment programs for the New Year in the Tang Dynasty, not only there are no firecrackers in later generations, but there are not even Spring Festival couplets, and there are only peach charms and New Year paintings in the empty palace, which makes Li Xuanqing hesitate to "invent" the Spring Festival couplets. As for firecrackers, forget it, gunpowder is now a strategic weapon of the Tiance Army, and the level of secrecy is also the highest level, so it can't be leaked out for the sake of excitement.

"Oh, let's go, it's all your fault, it's too late." Qiaoxi looked at the sky and said coquettishly: "The teacher will definitely laugh at us later." After saying that, he was about to speed up his pace, but he frowned again.

Li Xuanqing looked at her expression and reached out to pick her up, his body was lightly on the ground, and suddenly flew up quickly, flying towards the outside of the palace like a floating cloud. This made the guards who got up early in the morning to clean up and those who were on duty in the palace stunned.

And with the sound of clever and delicate reprimands, Li Xuanqing quickly came to the building complex near the Prayer Hall, where Zhang Tianhu and Cen Tianshi and other high-level officials of the Tiance Mansion were temporarily located. This was originally the palace of the Tang Dynasty royal family to worship the heavens and ancestors, but after the Huangchao Rebellion, almost all the buildings inside the palace city were in ruins, only the prayer hall was relatively well preserved, and later several emperors also lived in the prayer hall for a short time, which changed the practice of not being able to live here. After the Tiance army moved into Chang'an, the group of buildings near the prayer hall was also temporarily converted into high-rise residences, and before the construction of the office of Tiance Mansion was completed, this and Changqing Palace were also temporarily used as office space.

Li Xuanqing put Qiaoxi in front of the side hall of the New Year's Prayer Hall, and said with a smile: "I'll teach you the floating light and shadow body method when I go back, okay?" ”

"Hmph, it's not good, I won't learn, and you won't hold me if you learn." Qiaoxi glanced at him, raised his legs and walked towards the New Year's Hall.

"Haha, the newlyweds got up so early?" Before the two of them arrived at the entrance of the hall, they heard a hearty laughter, and Li Cunxiao walked out of the deputy hall on the side, and saw Li Xuanqing and the others: "Let's go, your two teachers are waiting in the hall." After saying that, he took the lead and walked forward.

"Xuanqing and Qiaoxi have met the two teachers, and I wish the teacher a New Year's greeting, wishing the teacher a day every year, and a future every year." Li Xuanqing and Qiaoxi took the tea that had been prepared and respectfully gave Zhang Tianhu and Ma Laosan New Year's greetings.

"Hahaha, hurry up. Xuanqing, the spirit is good. Zhang Tianhu stepped forward and helped the two of them up with a smile, took the tea and smiled at Ma Laosan. This tea ceremony is also over. And Li Xuanqing and Qiaoxi then gave tea to Li Cunxiao and his wife, and the two brothers also looked at each other and smiled.

After the tea, a few people finished breakfast in the prayer hall, because Li Cunxiao couldn't stay longer, and said to Li Xuanqing after eating: "Brother, looking at the perfect end of your life's events, I and your sister-in-law's hearts can be regarded as letting go." It's not too early, and I'm going back to Hezhong Mansion. I said, brother, Shatuo has also been affected by the disaster this year, you can't fight again, otherwise your sister-in-law and I will have to serve in the family law. ”

Zhang Tianhu and the others laughed when they heard this, and Li Xuanqing smiled: "Big brother, don't worry, you are affected by the disaster as if I was not affected, and the snow in the north is the same from east to west, okay?" Shall I beat you? I also want to tell you not to hit me? I'm full of victims, waiting to be fed, and I'm about to die. After saying these jokes, Li Xuanqing's face gradually became serious and said: "But to be honest, the eldest brother has to be more careful after he goes back, after all, open guns are easy to dodge, and hidden arrows are difficult to guard." Big brother, you have an upright personality, you are too arrogant in your bones, be careful of being plotted by villains. ”

Li Cunxiao was stunned for a moment, and then understood what he meant, and Ma Laosan, who was about to speak, said: "Cunxiao, our two old men are also from your brother's age, it doesn't matter if the young man is arrogant, but you remember one thing, don't make him think that you are a threat to him." Do you understand? ”

Ma Laosan's words have been said very bluntly, Li Cunxiao also knows what they mean, but with his character, he doesn't think it's the case, he has been framed every time he has put the account on Li Cunxin, and when he heard the words, he was about to argue but was pulled by his wife next to him.

"Two seniors, good brothers, younger brothers and sisters, I understand what you mean, I think I will pay attention. It's not too early, Humble Jing and I are leaving, let's meet him at a later date. Li Cunxiao was silent for a long time and nodded. However, his expression made Li Xuanqing sigh secretly, but he didn't say much.

Li Xuanqing and Qiaoxi sent Li Cunxiao and his wife to the gate of the palace, and at this time, the eighteen guards he brought were also assembled at the gate of the palace, waiting for Li Cunxiao's arrival.

"Big brother, I heard that you are looking for someone to teach your nephew martial arts?" Li Xuanqing was about to say goodbye to Li Cunxiao, when he suddenly remembered something and asked.

Li Cunxiao nodded and said: "You also know that my martial arts have no routines, and I basically rely on my own talent, but your nephew, his talent is not very good." So I'm worried about it. What good idea does my brother have-damn it, how did I forget, I can't, but brother, your martial arts are not under me, how about it? How about taking on an apprentice? ”

Li Xuanqing nodded and said with a smile: "Before I went down the mountain that day, the master also asked me to accept apprentices as soon as possible to carry forward the sect, but I have been busy with military affairs for the past two years, but I forgot about it." If the eldest brother has time, he can send his nephew over, and then he will be the head disciple, so his identity is okay. ”

Li Cunxiao laughed and said: "Brother, you can do whatever you say, I have no opinion, this matter is settled." Okay, I'm leaving, we'll see you later. After saying that, he turned over and got on his horse and took his wife away, and the eighteen horsemen followed.

Looking at the backs of several people who were far away, Li Xuanqing sighed and muttered to himself: "I have done everything I can do, big brother, I hope you can have a good death." ”

"Don't worry, big brother, I think although the eldest brother doesn't understand, my sister-in-law has obviously understood, and she must be fine." Qiaoxi knew what Li Xuanqing was talking about, so he came over and comforted him.

"I hope so." Li Xuanqing smiled slightly bitterly, stretched out his hand and walked towards Miyagi.
