Chapter Eighty-Seven: Two Little Guesses
(At the end of the month, ask for subscriptions, ask for monthly tickets) Lai Xing'er retreated from the Yanying Palace in accordance with the emperor's instructions, and rushed to the southeast of the Daming Palace with the two sergeants who escorted him. The two sergeants had obviously received orders in advance, and when they saw this, they said goodbye to Xing'er with their fists in their hearts, saying that they had offended many things today, and hoped that the captain would not be surprised. didn't wait for Lai Xing'er to return the salute, that is, he turned around and left.
Lai Xing'er met Jinping in Qixia Pavilion when he first entered the East Palace, and in his memory, the two have always been open-mouthed, laughing and laughing, even if there are occasionally a few embarrassing scenes during the period, it is just said that it is passed, and it is not very concerned. Now, as soon as the two of them were mentioned by the emperor and fully undertaken by the master, they already had a marriage contract, but they became strangers, and for a while, they didn't know where to start.
The little white dragon seemed to have seen through the nervous, excited and slightly embarrassed minds of Lai Xing'er and Jinping, and suddenly raised his head and let out a long hiss like a dragon groan, as if reminding the two to cherish this rare moment of reunion.
"Little White Dragon is thanks to you for taking care of you these days"
Lai Xing'er tried to restrain herself, wanting to speak more easily, but her tongue didn't obey, and she stammered a little when she said something ordinary.
Jinping smiled, put down the reins in his hand, walked to Lai Xing'er, couldn't help but say, and plunged into Lai Xing'er's arms, and couldn't stop scolding: "Where have you been these days?" It hurt people to be unable to sleep all night, and every day when the sky was unknown, he ran to Yulinwei to find General Wu to ask for someone, and then he didn't dare to see me."
Her long hair was slightly playing back and forth on Lai Xing'er's face, crispy and itchy Lai Xing'er was confused for a while, and stretched out her arm to hold Jinping tightly in her arms
The little white dragon stood not far away, flashing his two big watery eyes, looking at the little master and his beloved woman, snorting happily, as if he was also sharing the short and sweet happiness of the two at the moment.
"Mother, are you okay?" It was still Lai Xing'er who broke the silence first, gently pushed Jinping away from his arms, and asked.
"Okay, everything is fine." Jinping buried his head low, didn't dare to look directly at Lai Xing'er, and replied softly, "It's that Princess Xueqing got a strange disease some time ago, and then she was blessed by the Bodhisattva, and now there is no big problem." Niangniang is also the same as me, worried about you. ”
Lai Xing'er wasn't sure if Jinping knew that he would rush to the army in Hezhong tomorrow, and was about to tell her, but Jinping asked him first: "Do you know Tang Guo'er's whereabouts now?" Although I heard that she was being held by General Wu, I couldn't find out the specific location where she was being held, and I don't know what happened to her now. ”
"How do you know that Tang Guo'er is being detained?" Lai Xing'er asked puzzled.
"Well, you don't have to ask." Jinping seemed to change back to his usual appearance for a moment, and replied mysteriously, "Hey, have you heard, Li Jinzhong was not killed by some Uighur thief for money. I heard rumors that it was said that the two unidentified women who killed him were strong in martial arts, and one of these two women should be that Tang Guo'er, right? ”
Lai Xing'er was really taken aback by her words, raised her eyes and glanced around, and after confirming that there was no one nearby, she lowered her voice and threatened: "This kind of thing is easy to talk nonsense, beware of Niangniang knowing, tear your mouth." ”
The two of you said a word, and unconsciously became bickering again like usual, and I couldn't remember that there was a marriage contract between the two now.
He also wanted to tell Jinping a few words about serving his mother and waiting for me to come back, but when the words came to his mouth, he finally felt that he couldn't speak, so he simply said goodbye to Jinping, and then raised his leg to leave.
Jinping had a full stomach to say to Lai Xing'er, but when he saw that he had just said a few words to himself and was about to leave, he pouted, raised his hand and gave Lai Xing'er a punch, not only did not lower his voice, but raised his voice and said: "If you are tired of being with me, I will go back to Niangniang......"
Despite that, the word divorce was never willing to say it, and only looked at Lai Xing'er with a bit of resentment.
Lai Xing'er's heart was full of anticipation for going to the battlefield tomorrow, how could he notice Jinping's reluctance to him at this time, seeing that Jinping was angry, he didn't think much about it, so he patted her as usual and persuaded: "Don't make trouble, I'm going to leave Chang'an tomorrow, can you leave me with a smiling face?" ”
Jinping tightened his face, not letting Lai Xing'er see a trace of a smile, and said angrily: "Do you want to see a smile?" Then wait until you become a general and come to see it on the day of your victory. ”
Lai Xing'er heard two bells from the bell tower, and knew that it was the second watch, so he officially said goodbye to Jinping: "Then you are not allowed to laugh these days, just wait for me to come back and laugh." I really have to go. ”
Jinping saw that he said that he was leaving, and knew that he would not be able to stay, so he took off the horsewhip from his wrist, handed it to Lai Xing'er, and said: "There is nothing to give you before leaving, this horsewhip was originally given to me by my mother, Sakura asked me several times, I was not willing to give it to her, so I will give it to you now." ”
Lai Xing'er took the horsewhip and asked strangely: "Sister Ying'er is such a quiet person, so good, why did she think of asking you to raise the horsewhip?" ”
Speaking of Ying'er, Jinping was interested, and rushed to Xing'er to wink, and said: "You may not know yet, Ying'er has been presented to the emperor by Concubine Li's mother, and now she is already the emperor's person." I thought that she must have seen the emperor's affection, so she rushed to ask me for it to please the emperor. ”
Lai Xing'er remembered what Na Yu had said about her and Sakura'er's chance encounter in Nannei, and Sakura'er intentionally or unintentionally told her about guarding the grave in the "Wild Fox Fall", and couldn't help but remind Jinping: "Since Sakura has become half of the master, it's better for you to have less contact with her, lest someone say that you tend to be inflammatory." ”
"Where can she be half a master?" Jinping obviously didn't take Lai Xing'er's gentle reminder to heart, "I heard that the emperor has the heart to promote her as a talented person or something, but she is reluctant to be a lonely mother, and insists on staying by Niangniang's side and still being a palace person. ”
Lai Xing'er recalled the scene of Li Jinzhong's assassination, the black-clothed masked assassin was thin and small, and he didn't make a sound from beginning to end, as if he was afraid that people would recognize his (her) voice, so he took the opportunity to ask: "You have followed Niangniang for many years, in addition to Niangniang, have you ever seen that there are people in the harem who are good at technical attacks, such as Ying'er, maybe she likes it herself, so she asks you for a horsewhip." ”
Jinping didn't expect that Lai Xing'er was deliberately tricking her, and said with a smile: "You are right this time." Although I am not as diligent and studious as you, I have learned more than half of my mother's skills in the past two years, but in terms of vision, I am no less than you. Sakura is a person who usually refuses to even touch scissors, if you say that she loves horsewhips and is even good at technical strikes, how is this possible? ”
Lai Xing'er heard that she didn't think much about other places at all, and wanted to leave with her feet up, but after thinking about it, she finally felt a little relieved about Jinping, so she reminded her again: "When I was on an errand in the palace, I heard rumors that Duhu Niangniang was a little dissatisfied because of her position under Niangniang, you are fine, it is better to run to Yaohua Palace less." Besides, the days when you stay by Niangniang's side to serve won't be too long, so it's better to spend more time with Niangniang and Princess Xueqing on weekdays. ”
When Jinping heard Xing'er say this, he was very heartfelt, so he was no longer stubborn, and agreed softly: "I listen to you." (To be continued.) )
