Chapter 167: Spring Warmth
In the afterglow of the sunset, Lin Li and his entourage returned to Chang'an.
In the Lin Mansion, Cai Yan was repairing the flowers and plants growing wantonly in the small yard, when he heard the noise from the gate from far and near:
"The lord is back! … The lord is back! ”
The word "master" appeared too abruptly, and Cai Yan was a little stunned at first, and only after a while did he stride out like waking up from a dream.
"Akihime!"
Cai Yan suddenly raised his head when he heard this, and saw him staring at him with red eyes and a smile, and his tone was very gentle, although he was suppressed, the affection and exhaustion in it were still very clear.
Cai Yan stopped, only then did he notice that he was still holding a pair of scissors in his hand, and hurriedly turned his hand away, his heart was warm and coaxing, but it was as chaotic as a hap, it seemed that he had a lot to say, and he couldn't remember half a sentence, he looked at him with a smile, forced his composure, and whispered:
"Easy... The lord came back just in time, and there are many political and civil complaints backlogged in Chang'an City, waiting for you to make a decision. ”
Lin Li was a little lost when he heard this, and was about to speak, when another sound of footsteps came in a hurry, and he saw Jia Xufa and the two military advisors and Qiu Xiang and a few women coming with a smile.
Fa Zheng bowed down and said:
"My lord! Well done and big! Xia Pi a battle, the world was shocked, captured Cao Ren, attacked Luoyang, defeated Cao Mengde, and today's princes, all of them treat me differently in Chang'an, Xiangyang King Liu Biao and Shuzhong King Liu Zhang have sent congratulatory gifts and greetings, not only expressing their intention to make friends but also persuading the lord to call Wang Kaifu, the third duke of the highest. ”
Lin Li withdrew his gaze from Sister Cai, picked up Fa Zheng, and said with a smile:
"I have no intention of being famous, and I'm afraid that the tree will make a big splash. The matter of calling the king is not mentioned, but Liu Biao and the others should not be slack off at this time, and they should send someone to return with a salute. ”
Jia Xu stepped forward, glanced left and right, and said:
"I also feel that this is an excellent time to become king, but the lord must be tired after several months of traveling, so he might as well go to the bath and change clothes and rest for the night, and when he is refreshed tomorrow morning, I will come back to discuss it carefully."
Lin Li was surprised when he heard this, this big plan of "accumulating grain and slowly becoming king", but he and Jia Xu set it early, the original plan was to have three years to accumulate strength, but now that only half a year has passed, how can it become a good time to be the king.
However, he had indeed reached his limit at the moment, his eyes were dark, and he waved his hand to signal everyone to retreat, and then let Qiu Xiang help him to rest in the bedroom.
Among the group, Shi A and Zhang Xiu have already made a home in each of the Lin Mansion, with Zhang Xiu here, and they don't worry about Pang De not having a place to rest, as for Lu Lingqi, I believe that Jia Xu has already learned her information, and there is a military advisor, so he can't worry about this kind of thing.
Then there was no need to eat, Lin Daguan naturally bathed and changed clothes under the service of Qiu Xiang and went back to the house to sleep, and at this time it was completely dark, afraid of noisy him to sleep, everyone in the house ate carefully, slept carefully, except for a few patrol lights, everywhere was dark, completely quiet.
Lin Li opened the door, yawned fiercely, his eyes squinted, and he lay down step by step. When his body was doing a free fall movement, Lin Li's squinted eyes suddenly saw a person, but his body was slammed on the bed, and he had no strength to stand up again, and asked in a panic:
"You, you! If you don't go to get a good rest, why did you run into my house? ”
This person is Lu Lingqi.
The little girl stood in a dim place in a daze, afraid that for a while, since Lin Li entered the room, her eyes widened and her mouth opened wide, and she was ashamed and annoyed when she heard the words:
"How did I know this was going to be your room! Na Jia laughed at Mimi and said to me, 'Since the lord and you have a marriage contract, you must have a good life and settle down,' and asked someone to send me here! Damn Jia Xu, you dare to use this girl as a maid in the warm house, let you see jokes, it's really insulting to me! I'm going to kill him. ”
Lin Li laughed out loud when he heard this, and he didn't know whether he was sleepy or laughed, and he squeezed out two of them, but when he saw that Lu Lingqi's face was pale, he was already about to draw his sword and go out to seek justice, so he stopped. He threw a pillow over and said lazily:
"The military advisor works hard every day, so he has no interest in bullying you with this method, how does he know that you have the fine virtue of being willing to gamble and not admit defeat. However, at this time, the places have long been dispersed, and the empty houses in the house have long been divided. Miss Cai, you can't bother there, her father Cai Yong cried bitterly for Dong Zhuo's death back then, and you, as the daughter of Wenhou, are very inconvenient. If you're willing to squeeze the other rough guys, it's please, but remember not to fight with them, it's too noisy. ”
Lu Lingqi stomped her feet and said:
"It's better than staying in your wolf's den!"
"Ha~" Lin Li yawned again and waved his hand,
"Whatever you want."
After speaking, Lin Guanren's eyes were closed, and he didn't have the energy to say a word, so he fell asleep deeply.
…
In Jia's mansion, Jia Wen and Benhe, who were in their clothes to deal with official business, suddenly sneezed, he made a haircut, and then suddenly smiled, the lord is at this time, I'm afraid he is thanking me!
…
Lin Li's sleep is really sweet.
Although he is a person who practices qi, after all, his cultivation is shallow, not to mention that he can't bear it after months of running around and planning, so he slept from less than seven o'clock to five o'clock in the morning the next day. (Considering his physique, his ten hours are equivalent to twenty hours of sleep after ordinary people are tired)
Not only did he sleep for a long time, but he also slept deeply, and his brain was able to relax, so he didn't even have half a dream, but he felt in a daze that there seemed to be some movement at his feet in his sleep, but fortunately, he was not disturbed by the murderous aura, and since he was strong in guarding the martial arts in the house, he was not interested in opening his eyes.
At this time, Lin Li opened his eyes, he felt refreshed, extremely energetic, stretched his waist happily, up and down his body, the joints everywhere creaked, and for a while, the whole person seemed to be elongated.
As soon as he stretched out his waist, he felt that something was indeed wrong at his feet, and a soft object became stiff in an instant. Through the faint blue light of the fog outside, Lin Li saw Lu Lingqi's little face as crystal as jade, frowning, although her eyes were closed, she trembled uncontrollably, making her two long and dense eyelashes tremble like thin grass leaves hanging with dew. And at his feet was Lu Lingqi's arm under his cheek, afraid that after he woke up, he was ashamed and anxious, but he didn't dare to face it, and his muscles tightened unconsciously under the cover of his ears and the bell.
Lin Li looked at her carefully, in this quiet time, it was not very bright everywhere, and for no reason he felt a burst of warmth, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile.
The quilt was pushed and gently covered on Lu Lingqi's body, Lin Li put on a new robe, got out of bed, leaned over and whispered softly in her ear:
"It's cold in spring, since you stay, lie down and sleep for a while."
And then she didn't care about her ears that suddenly turned red...
…
Push the door out and practice the qi and sword dance!
