Volume 2: Si Li's Captain's Department Chapter 146: A Glass of Water and Wine
There is a mood called being more timid about homesickness, which should be the most appropriate for Chen Nuo at this time.
Originally, the biggest reason why he came to Chang'an was because of the existence of his 'parents', and he had to face it. I also look forward to seeing that familiar and unfamiliar face day and night. However, when he learned from Cai Wenji and Zhao Xue that his 'parents' had returned safely, and that they were on the side of the Tianwang Zhaizhong, his heart suddenly jumped. It's not that he doesn't want to see them right away, it's just that once he thinks of meeting this pair of cheap 'parents', Chen Nuo has a strange feeling. After all, these 'parents' were at most his physical 'parents', and had nothing to do with his soul, and the thought of seeing them was really panicking, and he didn't know how to face them and say something to them.
This inexplicable panic gave Chen Nuo an urge to reject, but this rejection was not tired, but just a psychological burden. Perhaps, he will need time to get used to the sudden addition of this pair of elderly 'parents'. But no matter what, now that Chen Nuo knew that his 'parents' had returned safely here, and Zhang Baiqi was taking care of them, he didn't need to worry about anything else. And what he needs most now is time, to soothe his restless heart. For this reason, Chen Nuo knew that his 'parents' were stationed in Tianwangzhai, but he deliberately did not go back, leaving the army outside, preparing to rest for a night and then go back. What's more, it's actually not early now, and it's really inconvenient for people to travel in a row. And where they were now, not far away, was near an empty market town, and although there were no more people in the market town, the empty houses were enough to shelter them from the wind and rain, and to provide them with a place to rest.
The night gradually sank, Chen Nuo gave an order, and all the people and horses were scattered in this market town. However, after entering the market town, Chen Nuo blocked the roads on both sides of the market town with men and horses at the same time, and made a large camp temporarily, while Chen Nuo and the others were protected by soldiers in the middle of the market town. He had just settled down here, but he broke in on horseback, but it was Milai who came over overnight to see Chen Nuo. Speaking of which, Chen Nuo led the troops out this time because of the difficult and dangerous task, so he didn't bring Milai. It's just that this Milley has always believed that Chen Nuo is her 'double. Xiu's only candidate is to refuse to let him go. However, because of an oversight during the day, Chen Nuo did not take her, so she had the strength to go out of the camp to find Chen Nuo immediately. However, before Milley left the camp, he met Colonel Zuo first. At that time, when Colonel Zuo heard that another person was going to find Chen Nuo, he smiled bitterly and did not stop her. However, after all, Milley is Chen Nuo's person, if she is allowed to walk around alone, she is afraid that something will happen, and Colonel Zuo has no choice but to temporarily hand over a few horsemen and horses to her to protect Milley all the way. Although there are only a few people in Milai's line, in the end they are relatively lucky, on the way, they did not encounter the angry Xiliang rebels, and the second did not encounter the cruel Hun cavalry, but they chased all the way here safely and caught up with Chen Nuo.
Chen Nuo was slightly stunned when he saw Milai at that time, but he didn't expect that Milai was quite bold this girl. However, when he saw Zhao Xue and the others' stunned eyes, Chen Nuo also immediately came to his senses and hurriedly introduced Milai to them. Zhao Xue didn't pay much attention to Chen Nuo's words, but stared at Chen Nuo non-stop, and sneered as soon as she said goodbye. Although there was no way to speak, it was not difficult to know from her laughter that Zhao Xue was naturally blaming Chen Nuo, the eldest brother, who was really a blessing. It was just before that Chen Nuo was going to tell Zhao Xue the news that Zhao Yun was not dead, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was really inappropriate for Tang Yun to speak, so he put down his mind and didn't tell Zhao Xue for the time being, and only said two sloppy sentences to reveal the matter. It's just that at this moment, Zhu Rong Qingyi behind Chen Nuo saw that it was not early, so he came to ask Chen Nuo if he wanted to rush back. Only when she asked, Chen Nuo didn't say anything at the time, but let the careful Zhao Xue see a flaw in Zhu Rong Qingyi's expression, so she asked Chen Nuo about the origin of Zhu Rong Qingyi, but he had never seen it before. Speaking of which, Zhu Rong Qingyi was temporarily taken by Chen Nuo's side when he was in Yanshi after Zhao Xue left, and Zhao Xue naturally didn't know him. It's just that Chen Nuo was asked by Zhao Xue at the time, so he thought that the less people knew about Zhu Rong Tsing Yi's female disguise as a man, the better, and there were Cai Wenji and others present at the time, it was inconvenient to say it, and he had the heart to take the school Zhao Xue, so he didn't tell Zhu Rong Tsing Yi's true identity, only said that it was because she was alert and skilled, so she was promoted to her side as a personal guard. It's just that Zhao Xue can't see it, so as soon as she tries it, Zhu Rong Qingyi will be exposed, so that Zhao Xue can see the identity of her daughter's family. Zhao Xue also said that she had a warm relationship with him because Chen Nuo deliberately concealed her, so she hummed and laughed instead of saying it, but made Chen Nuo blush, and there was no way to explain it, and if she didn't explain, it seemed that Zhao Xue had misunderstood again. It is precisely because there was Zhu Rong Tsing Yi in the front and a Milai in the back that it will inevitably cause Zhao Xue to misunderstand Chen Nuo. That Zhao Xue was also making a mistake, so she didn't say a word at this time, just teased Chen Nuo with her eyes to see how her big brother should end.
Chen Nuo saw her smile in a strange way, and her eyes looked very evil, so he knew that if she didn't explain this girl clearly, she was afraid that she would misunderstand him again. However, how should he explain such a thing, but I am afraid that the more he explains, the worse it gets, looking at Zhao Xue's evil smile, he simply pretended not to see anything, just coughed twice, and turned to blame Milai for two sentences, blaming her for a girl's house should not run around, and sent Milai down first.
Na Millai snorted, his eyes stared, and he felt strangely uncomfortable. You know, since she identified Chen Nuo as a 'double. Xiu's best candidate is equivalent to defaulting to Chen Nuo as his own man. And now, there is not only a Zhu Rong Qingyi next to her man, but also an additional Zhao Xue, and Cai Wenji, who has been silent next to Zhao Xue, is uncomfortable in her heart. Seeing that there were suddenly so many more women around Chen Nuo, her sense of crisis suddenly increased, and she didn't say anything, but she felt uncomfortable in her heart. She was only sent away by Chen Nuo, and returned to the temporary room, but she was still uncomfortable after thinking about it, and suddenly touched the small porcelain bottle in her sleeve, and her heart suddenly came up.
That night, the mountain fire broke out behind Tianwang Village, and she was rescued by a Ge Yi Lao Dao who was holding a bamboo fight. And it was at the mouth of Ge Yi's old way that she knew the secret map of yellow silk hidden on her body, in fact, the original owner was this old way. Only the old Taoist said that since she finally got this piece of yellow silk, she thought that she had a relationship with Taoism, so she wanted to turn her into a monk and travel with him. It's just that Millai's mother's revenge has not been avenged, how can she be willing to let go of her mundane affairs, but she doesn't want to go, and Lao Tao didn't force her. Only Milley was bent on 'double' with Chen Nuo at that time. Cultivation', in exchange for the first achievement of divine merit, to take revenge, but because there is no such opportunity, it has been distressed. At that time, Lao Dao looked at her and although she didn't speak, it seemed that he had already seen through her thoughts, so he took out the small porcelain bottle from his sleeve and handed it to her. And she, after saying goodbye to the old way, also returned to Chen Nuo's side and has been accompanying Chen Nuo here.
Now, the porcelain vase had been in her possession for several days, and she had kept it close to her, but she had not been able to make up her mind whether to use it or not. After all, although the revenge is to be avenged, but she has to lose her daughter's body because of this, which makes her a little hesitant, not to mention, this kind of thing has to be designed by her, if people know it, they will not be able to save face. However, face is face, and if it is placed in front of the great enemy, it seems to be so insignificant. She tossed and turned on the couch and thought about it, and she couldn't sleep. If Chen Nuo is always the only woman by her side, then she doesn't care when she leaves, after all, it's not too late to do such a thing until she thinks about it all. However, if her determination fails, she encounters this problem in front of her, which really makes her feel uneasy. Speaking of which, whether it was Zhu Rong Qingyi or Zhao Xue, or Cai Wenji, which of them had this beautiful face, and they were in no way inferior to her, and Chen Nuo seemed to have been lukewarm to her, which made her, a person who coveted Chen Nuo, suddenly become less confident. You know, if Chen Nuo is seduced by those girls, what will she do to coax Chen Nuo's favor and practice with Chen Nuo, who has no competitiveness? And it was precisely because she suddenly realized this crisis that she returned to her room and could no longer sleep peacefully, just thinking about what to do.
What to do? What to do?
What can I do? The so-called first strike is stronger, so far, before Chen Nuo is completely fascinated by these little goblins, it is the most important thing to take down Chen Nuo first. When it comes to winning Chen Nuo, her little self-confidence can only be completely pinned on this small porcelain vase in her sleeve.
Touching this small porcelain vase, Milley's heart was pounding, as if he was about to jump to his throat, but he couldn't stop the thought in his heart for a moment. Do you really want to plot against Chen Nuo? But if we don't, is there a better way? No! You must know that Wang is still at large, and her mother's revenge has not been avenged, her only hope now is this set of magic skills pinned on Huang Juan's secret map, and only if she practices this set of magic skills with Chen Nuo, then all problems will not be a problem. Now, since there is no other choice, then we can only try to take this step forward. Milley thought this clearly, and immediately lifted the quilt, calmed his nervous breathing, and got up to get busy.
Poured water and wine into the two empty cups, took out the porcelain bottle from the sleeve, and then took the two yin and yang powder in the porcelain bottle to her, one for each wine cup, shattered, shaken evenly, and disappeared, so she took the two water and wine on a wooden tray and picked it up, got up and walked out of the room. Although this series of actions was done in one go, it seemed to have been silent for thousands of years in motion, which made Mi Lai, who came out, also gasp hard. It's really not easy to make this step, even her chest seems to be bursting, and her face is even more hot, like a thief very quickly, and her heart is very empty. But fortunately, when she went out, a breath of wind blew in her face, blowing on her hot face, making her whole person smart, and her face was half hot, which was much better. She walked around the corner, and suddenly came to Chen Nuo's side, and the lights in Chen Nuo's resting place came from afar, and the drum in her heart suddenly beat louder, and her heart became even more empty. At this time, when he suddenly raised his head, he seemed to be stunned, and he wondered in his heart that he was doing something, and immediately retreated, suffocating a little under his feet, and was about to turn back. It's just that at this moment, a soft voice came from the front: "Who! This shout was like a thunderclap, and it struck Milley to the ground.
Originally, what Milley did was already extremely absurd, and Milley himself was also timid on the spot, and he was frightened by this, and he was immediately frightened and didn't know why, and he almost turned around immediately. But fortunately, after the man scolded him, he immediately recognized Milai, and immediately walked forward, and smiled with Milai: "Oh, it turned out to be Miss Milai!" Hearing this familiar voice, he knew that it was Zhu Rong Qingyi, and Mi Lai also exhaled a little, wiping a handful of cold sweat on his palm. Only Zhu Rong Qingyi stepped forward and glanced at Mi Lai, but she didn't see any flaws in the night, but just looked at the two glasses of wine she was holding in her hands, smelled it, and smiled, and said, "Miss Mi Lai, you came here so late, is it to send wine to the general?" However, the general was about to fall asleep, and at this time, he was only afraid of ...... "Zhu Rong Qingyi also cares about Chen Nuo, and he only said that it is really not good to drink so late, so he must persuade Mi Lai to retreat." It was that Milai, who had the intention of retreating the moment she was blocked by Zhu Rong Qingyi, that is, Zhu Rong Qingyi didn't say anything, she was also ready to quit. Only Zhu Rong Qingyi didn't say 'I'm afraid it's inappropriate', and Milai's retreat has not yet been completed, but the door behind her opened with a bang, and all the light shot over, illuminating the eyes of the two of them.
It turned out that in the previous time, Chen Nuo first sent Mi Lai away, and then said a few words to Zhao Xue and Cai Wenji, and because they were tired, they went back to their rooms to rest. After all, Chen Nuo was used to going to bed late, although he was tired after a day's work, he came to his senses again after everyone left, and he couldn't sleep for a while, so he picked up the book he brought with him and read the two lines of books. I don't know how long it has been since he lowered his head here, but once he raised his head, he felt that the water was fading out of his mouth, and he still thought about how good it would be if he could have a sip of water and wine to accompany the book at this time. It was also when he couldn't look forward to it, but he didn't want to be scolded by Zhu Rong Qingyi at this time, so he immediately came to the spirit, and then heard that it was Milai who came to deliver water and wine, and the daring became more and more good, so he opened the door desperately and welcomed Milai in.
"Hahahaha, Miss Mi really knows my heart, I was thinking about how good it would be if I had a sip of water and wine to drink at this time. No, as soon as I thought of this, you come here, girl. However, Miss Mi, you are also stingy, why did you only bring two glasses of wine, but this is not enough for me to rinse my mouth......"
Chen Nuo grinned and invited Milai over, saying that he was about to snatch the wine from Milai's hand. However, Milai's eyes were quick, and he hurriedly stopped him: "You think beautifully, this wine ...... You only have one glass of this wine. "Why?" Chen Nuo only asked this, Mi Lai's face turned red, don't look around, put the two glasses of wine on the wooden table, and glanced back at the outside of the house, but Zhu Rong Qingyi was well-behaved, did not follow up, and had already closed the door. Seeing the closed door, and then glimpsing the two glasses of water and wine in front of him, Milley's heart that had just settled suddenly rolled up, and jumped violently, as if he was about to come out. When she was asked by Chen Nuo, there was a ghost for a while, and her face immediately held back the color of red, so she didn't say a word, picked up a glass of wine, held it in front of Chen Nuo, and took another glass of wine, and glanced at Chen Nuo alive, didn't dare to speak, and held her breath.
Chen Nuo looked strange, took the wine cup casually, and looked at her red face in a blink of an eye, and his heart was already suspicious. Chen Nuo thought for a while and said with a smile: "Girl, if you don't speak, just pour me wine, I don't know what this means?" Could it be that girl, you came to me in the middle of the night with a glass of wine, but you came to entertain me, or do you want to drink that glass of wine with me? Haha, uh, girl, what's wrong with you, your face is so ugly? "Chen Nuo reunited with Zhao Xue, and got the news that his 'parents' had returned safely, but he was in a good mood, but he completely ignored the others, and he didn't notice the strangeness of Milai's expression tonight, he was happy, and he opened his mouth to make a joke, and he just wanted to tease Milai. He only said a joke, and suddenly saw that Milai's face became more and more bloodshot and stiff as death, which made him stunned for a moment, and said that he had said the wrong thing.
Na Millai didn't speak, but he was so nervous that even what he wanted to say was cornered, and only an anxious look remained. Where did she joke with Chen Nuo at this time, but Chen Nuo didn't listen to a word of what she said, seeing that Chen Nuo only continued to drink wine, she didn't know what to say even if she had the intention to urge, so she only scolded the stupid person in her heart, but she picked up the wine cup and wanted to drink it first. Anyway, as long as she drinks it first, she is not afraid that Chen Nuo will not drink it with her. As soon as Chen Nuo's sentence was finished, the wine cup in her hand had just been halfway served, and she hadn't been able to drink the water and wine in the cup, when suddenly there was a sound of Du, but it was Zhu Rong Qingyi outside the door who tapped the door, and then said to Chen Nuo through the door and window: "General, there is news from Xiliang." ”
When Chen Nuo heard this, he put the lamp down and asked Milai to wait for a while, and he immediately opened the door and walked out. That Zhu Rong Qingyi came up, didn't say a word, and went down with Chen Nuo. As soon as Chen Nuo left, the house was immediately empty, and only Milai was left alone.
