Chapter 128: A Good Show
Sisi was really tired, so Qiu Chulin fell asleep as soon as she left her.
Today, Sisi rarely dreamed again, but there was nothing in the dream, the dream was filled with a white fog, she walked in the fog, as if she never stopped, there was no end, no way back.
In her dreams, she seemed to be looking for something that had been lost for a long time, although she didn't know what she was looking for, but she knew that it should have been engraved in her mind, imprinted on the tip of her heart, but now, they were gone.
When Sisi woke up, she was buried in Qiu Chulin's arms, her arms around his waist, tears soaking his clothes.
"Is it a dream? What did you dream about? Qiu Chulin saw Sisi wake up, stroked her hair, and asked softly.
"I dreamed...... It was foggy, and I kept walking, not knowing where to go, not knowing where to go back, or why I was walking. Sisi sat up supporting Qiu Chulin's arms and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Qiu Chulin then got up and took Sisi's slender hand.
"Well, as long as you're here, I'm not afraid of anything." Sisi held Qiu Chulin's warm big hand and said with a smile, "Is it time?" ”
"yes, I'll take you there." Qiu Chulin squatted down, picked up the shoes neatly placed next to the bed, and picked up Sisi's feet to put on shoes for her.
"I can wear it myself." Sisi's cheeks were slightly red.
"What, don't you like me to put on your shoes?" As soon as Qiu Chulin's hand was released, Sisi's shoes fell to the ground with a "click", he held Sisi's ankle with one hand, and gently swiped the soles of Sisi's feet with the other hand.
"Don't!" Sisi wailed, and hurriedly wanted to withdraw her feet, but Qiu Chulin's big hand was clenched tightly, and she couldn't dodge, Sisi repeatedly broke free to no avail, and finally disarmed and surrendered, "Then you wear it, I won't hide." ”
Qiu Chulin smiled, very satisfied with Sisi's "knowledge of current affairs".
The river Qiu Chulin said was not far from the east of Daying, Qiu Chulin rode a horse with Sisi, but it took half a pillar of incense to the river.
The river's edge is lush with trees, and the water rushes through the boulders that jut into the river, leaving behind the pleasant sound of water.
Tonight, the moon and stars are scarce, the bright moon and bright stars in the sky are reflected on the river, and the night wind is dotted with stars and sparkling, and the crickets hidden in the grass are crying one after another, and it is rare to make noise in the quiet night.
"This river is a branch of the Beiluo River, from the source in the Tianshan Mountains in the north, the river is not in a hurry, the terrain in front is low, just a pool of water, just suitable for you to rush, I am waiting for you here, if you have something, call me loudly." Qiu Chulin found a big stone on the spot, wiped the dust on it and sat down.
"Okay, then you wait for me, I'll be soon." Sisi briskly trotted in the direction Qiu Chulin pointed, leaving a cheerful voice to listen to Qiu Chulin's ears, causing him to lose his mind for a while.
If his Ling'er can't remember the past, it's good to be so innocent and lively.
At least, no more swaying by hatred.
After Sisi came to the boulder, he poked his little head and quietly peeked at Qiu Chulin for a moment, and saw that he was only sitting on the stone and had no other movements, so he returned to the stone with confidence, took off his clothes and put it on the boulder, and carefully went into the water.
The water here is very cool, and Sisi was thrilled by the ice as soon as he stretched out his feet.
Sisi gritted her teeth, made enough preparations, and then went into the water with all her might.
The bottom of the water is a large round stone that has been washed by the current, which is covered with green moss, and it is sticky and greasy when stepping on it, Sisi is afraid that the soles of his feet will not be able to step on it, and he will slide down and break his feet, so he has been holding on to the boulder, leaning on the boulder wall, and slowly moving to the depths of the water.
When the water surface in the pool was not more than half a big body, Sisi stopped, adapted to it for a long time, teased the water, and began to bathe.
Jing Chuchu returned to Chu'an City a month ago to do business, and when he was about to return, he received news from Su Yan and Jinnan, so he rushed to the army day and night with the news.
Jing Chuchu drove out of Linyue City, passing through the reservoir in the east of the camp, thinking that he had not bathed and washed his body for many days, and his body was already covered with stinky sweat.
Jing Chuchu had just climbed the boulder, and then she heard a slight sound of water under the stone, she approached quietly, and looked down, there was a woman under the water leaning against the boulder wall to wash and wipe her body.
The night light was dim, and the woman lowered her head again, and Jing Chuchu naturally couldn't see the woman's face clearly.
This deserted place is also a place where the army is stationed, and the superfluous beasts are invisible on weekdays, how can there be a woman who bathes here in the middle of the night?
Jing Chuchu's eyes narrowed, and after thinking about it, he only felt that this woman was very likely to be a spy sent by Jinnan to infiltrate the camp.
She held the protruding part of the boulder and slowly approached the woman.
Sisi was concentrating on wiping her body, not knowing that someone on the boulder she was leaning on was quietly approaching, she scooped up the corner of her praise clothes, grabbed the water, raised her head, covered the corners of her clothes around her neck, and slowly wiped them.
"Ah......" Sisi looked up and saw a shadow squatting on the boulder, the shadow was against the moonlight, pitch black, unable to distinguish limbs, unable to distinguish facial features, like a deformed ...... Monster.
Jing Chuchu's eyes tightened, how could the woman's face ...... Born so much like a princess?
Her heart shook, and the hand holding the corner of the boulder unconsciously loosened her strength, and then her feet slipped, and Jing Chuchu fell in front of Sisi with a huge falling water sound in Sisi's voiceless scream, fell to the bottom of the water, and smashed a huge splash.
Fortunately, the stones at the bottom of the water were round and gentle, and Jing Chuchu's back touched the bottom, although it hurt, he was not injured.
Qiu Chulin rushed over when he heard the sound, and he could see a figure in front of Sisi, desperately struggling out of the water. His eyes lit up, his anger rose instantly, and without thinking, he drew his sword, rose to his feet, and stepped straight across the water.
Jing Chuchu just jumped up from the water, regained her breath, and a sharp blade landed on her neck.
Sisi was stunned by the scene in front of her, she looked at Qiu Chulin who came in a hurry in a daze, and the shock in her eyes did not retreat.
"Lemon, come here." Qiu Chulin's cold voice was shallow with worry.
Sisi came back to her senses at this time, she curiously glanced at the girl in front of her who suddenly fell from the sky, and hurriedly paddled towards Qiu Chulin.
Qiu Chulin took Sisi in his arms, moved the sword in his hand to the shoulder of the person in front of him, and slapped it a few times, "Turn around!" ”
"Lord Wang, it's a subordinate." Jing Chuchu's voice trembled slightly, and she looked at the woman at once, and she was sure that it was the princess.
Thinking of the news he received the day before yesterday, the doubts in Jing Chuchu's eyes gradually turned into natural.
Jing Chuchu turned around slowly, his eyes fell on Sisi, and tears lingered.
"Princess, is it really you?" Jing Chuchu's eyes were red.
"Princess? She's talking about me? Sisi looked at Qiu Chulin in surprise, then turned to Jing Chuchu and asked, "Do you recognize me?" ”
"Princess...... Why don't you remember me? Jing Chuchu looked at Qiu Chulin incredulously, hoping to get an answer from him, "Lord Wang? ”
"Let's go back and talk about it." Qiu Chulin put away the sword and looked down at Sisi in his arms, "Have you washed it?" After washing, we went back. ”
"Hmm." Sisi realized that she was lying on his chest, barely wearing a silk coat, her face was suddenly hot, and she wanted to find a crack in the stone to get into.
"Miss Jing, I'm sorry for you to find a few clothes for Ning'er when you go back." Qiu Chulin said, ignoring Jing Chuchu watching from the side, he picked up Sisi, protected the whole person in his arms, and slowly walked out of the waterhole.
Jing Chuchu was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth for a while.
Their lord, what a ...... It hurts more and more, and the dead wood that doesn't get in the oil and salt doesn't learn anything?
As soon as Sisi returned to the shore, he broke free from Qiu Chulin's embrace, jumped on the ground, picked up his coat, and put it on his body.
Seeing this, the corners of Qiu Chulin's lips raised slightly, he pretended to be embarrassed and hurriedly turned around, turned his back to Sisi, and then said to Jing Chuchu, "Miss Jing, I have to bother you to help her get dressed." ”
Jing Chuchu hadn't walked out of the waterhole at this time, when she heard Qiu Chulin's words, she almost slipped under her feet and fell back into the water, she calmed down, and after making sure that she had heard correctly, she said cautiously, "Yes." ”
The prince and the princess, what kind of trick are they playing?
After Sisi got dressed, Qiu Chulin took Sisi on the horse and rode back to the camp. Jing Chuchu followed from a distance, and secretly said in his heart, if he could see such a good show, he didn't run in vain this time.
Back in the camp, Sisi's yawns were one after another, Qiu Chulin just put her on the couch, and she turned over and fell asleep.
Qiu Chulin came to the bookcase to collect the official documents, then turned off the lights and returned to the collapse, and hugged Sisi to sleep.
When Sisi woke up the next morning, she was the only one left in the big tent, the basin, muslin and new clothes had been neatly placed in one place, and the armor hanging on the hanger next to the bookcase was still there, but Qiu Chulin was no longer in the tent.
Where did he sleep last night?
Sisi looked around the big tent in confusion, but did not find a second bed.
The main tent is deserted, but the tent where Qiu Xiyang lives is very lively at the moment.
In order not to disturb Sisi's rest, Qiu Chulin specially changed the location of the morning meeting to Qiu Xiyang's tent.
Jing Chuchu dragged the dark circles under his eyes, holding his temples and taking a lazy nap.
"Miss Jing, tell me about what you have gained from this trip." Qiu Chulin said by name.
"Back to the prince, my subordinates received two pieces of news before leaving, which were about Jinnan and Su Yan." Jing Chuchu was startled, hurriedly straightened up, cleared his throat and said, "Emperor Suyan sent the Traceless Prince as Su Yan's envoy, and personally brought the writer of the confession handbook, the medicine king Shiyu, to Jinnan to ask Emperor Jinnan for an explanation. ”
"There's been a lot of restlessness in Winterfell these days, but it's related to the trip of the Traceless Child?" Qiu Chulin asked.
"Exactly, with the acquiescence of Emperor Jinnan, the Traceless Prince successively found the medicine furnace used for refining medicine and the eldest princess of Guichen who was placed under house arrest in the other courtyard, that is, the regent princess of our dynasty." Jing Chuchu said word by word very slowly, "Emperor Jinnan knew that he was wrong, and ordered the abolition of the crown prince, demoted to a commoner, and was never allowed to enter Beijing. ”
When everyone heard this, they were in an uproar.
Prince Xiuyi of Jinnan is stationed at the border pass, and the emperor's move is really against common sense!
The change of generals in the face of the battle aroused the panic of the army, didn't Emperor Jinnan want to live anymore? Once Xiu Yi led the army to abandon the eastern border and go straight to Licheng, the anger of the 300,000 army was really something that Emperor Jinnan could control and resist?
