Chapter 20 You can only know by heart, but it is difficult to talk to you
Lianyi's heart was hot, and she agreed: "Got it." β
Strange to say, she didn't feel repulsed, she just felt nervous.
In order not to let herself think too much, she undressed as quickly as she had ever been, and after a while, she came out from behind the screen, wearing only half-length silk pants and belly pockets, and the red silk rope was tied to her snow-white ankles, which was even more eye-catching.
Jin Bei looked distracted and upright, looked at her, and whispered a word of concern, "It's not cold, right?" β
"Hmm."
Saying that, Jin Bei had already taken the red silk quilt from the kang and wrapped it around her, then opened the pink wrapper, and first unfolded the black brocade robe on it to explain, "This is what the minister wore when he was 15 years old, and it is about the same size as you. β
"Okay."
The red silk quilt was ripped off and thrown back on the kang, and Jin Bei meticulously put on the black brocade robe for Lianyi, which fit well. He took out the peach blossom nail from the pink bag again.
Lianyi looked at it, and her face was full of joy.
This armor not only has a good name, but also looks good, the heart guards, elbow pads, and knee pads are all delicate, finely carved silver, around these parts, it is a light and pleasing silver armor piece chiseled into a peach petal-shaped shape, and then extends out, it is the silver wire woven pattern and armor, which is very light, all the clothes are on the peach-colored satin, and not all the satin is covered, so it is extraordinarily light. Silver and satin complement each other, like peach blossoms in the snow, bright and bright.
The armor seems to be one, but it is actually divided into several parts, Jinbei Station is close, and it is put on for Lianyi in turn.
Lianyi obediently cooperated, stretched out his arms when he should stretch his arms, and raised his head when he should raise his head. Suddenly, I found that the piece on my chest seemed to have been damaged and repaired. The craftsmanship is so clever that you can't see it without looking closely.
Thinking of Wei Qi saying that Jin Bei had been on the battlefield, Lianyi only felt a chill between her noses.
"The Golden Guard was injured?"
"Huh? Well. He was busy with what he was doing, and replied rather perfunctorily, "Your Highness saw the patch?" β
"To the battlefield, dressed so beautifully?"
"Huh? Well. "He's still perfunctory.
"Who made it up for you?"
At this time, Jin Bei finished the work in his hand, unfolded it, and looked at the lotus meaning.
In the end, it was the armor that Jin Bei wore as an adult, although it was too big on Lianyi, like a child, stealing the clothes of adults.
Jin Bei couldn't help but smile and stepped forward to approach her again, "Your Highness, don't be impatient, the minister will adjust it for you." β
The so-called "tuning" is simply treating Lianyi as a big thing, fiddling around, tightly there, plugging here, tossing for a long time.
"The matter of mending armor is a man's craft, right?" Lianyi began to talk again.
Jin Bei was pulling a strap behind her at the time, his voice was low, slightly exerting force, and his tone was perfunctory, "Hmm." When you see the prince for a while, you must care about his face, whether it hurts or not, and whether you want to apply medicine. β
He didn't want to answer the question about Peach Blossom Armor at all.
When Lianyi waited for him to tie the last strap and went to look at himself again, she asked him, "I understand." But are you making this opinion for me, or for him? β
There was no change in expression on his face, "For the sake of himself." It's still the same sentence - the master is happy. You two are harmonious and loving, and our guards are good messengers. β
Lianyi didn't squeak.
Jin Bei added, "Besides, the old lady in your family is also at ease." β
Even the grandmother was brought out by her, okay.
"Don't worry." She said.
"Yes. This dress is almost there, let's go out to greet the prince, and we must go there in terms of etiquette. A man is busy all day, and when he returns to be picked up by a woman at the door, that heart, not to mention how comfortable. β
Lianyi didn't bother to answer, and thought, "Okay, he's comfortable." What about me? Still trembling and hanging! β
At this time, the sun was setting, shining on the stone walls, bricks and tiles, grass and trees in this courtyard. The March wind penetrated through the gaps between Lianyi's overgrown armor and brocade clothes.
The same wind penetrated into Jin Bei's sleeves again.
The two of them came out of the ear room, Yu Ming was waiting, followed by a team of soldiers, and walked back around the courtyard gate, passing through a tall building, to the door of the small palace specially opened for the prince in the northwest corner of the palace.
Lianyi turned her head slightly, and saw the carved beams and paintings behind her, and the lonely swing. - That is the starting point of Hewei's rush to the Ubetsu Valley.
She suddenly felt for a moment that maybe she was wrong, maybe Hewei ran away to love a man.
In the staggered time, she seemed to be able to see the figure of the clan sister desperately releasing her demons, as if she could see her falling at the palace gate, her face covered with blood, and when she was picked up by her beloved Prince Xirong and held on the horse's head, she laughed and was intoxicated.
The crowd that greeted the prince was led by Lianyi, and he couldn't see the shadow of the princess, but only saw a big eunuch from the next courtyard who he had seen in the morning also kneeling on the ground, and said hello to Lianyi.
Lianyi replied attentively, said a few polite words, and when she heard a sound outside, she knelt down.
The honor guards holding the banner of the East Palace passed by in pairs, and then the crown prince Chen Yu appeared on horseback accompanied by Huijiu, got down at the palace gate, handed over the horse to his subordinates, and walked over first to personally pick up the eunuch on the princess's side, "It's hard work." I'll have dinner here. β
"Yes." The eunuch didn't say more, "The slave said goodbye to the prince, and the slave said goodbye to Concubine Xiaoxu." β
Then he stepped back.
Only then did the prince walk up to Lianyi's side and coldly ordered, "Get up." β
Lianyi replied in a voice as calm as possible: "Obey." β
She stood up, and the setting sun cast her shadow into his arms.
"Look up." The crown prince Chen Yu then ordered.
Lianyi obeyed her fate, and at a glance saw the prince's cold eyes, as well as the bruise on his left cheek.
She remembered Jin Bei's instructions, and immediately showed a little tenderness and concern, "Your Highness, you are a slave and reckless in the morning. Are you still in pain? Medicated? β
"Humph! Crocodile tears! β
Chen Yu said this, but one hand forcibly took Lianyi's little hand, held it tightly, and returned to the room hand in hand. "What have you been doing all this day?"
The correct answer was "chatting with Wei Qi", but Lian Yi couldn't say that, "I've been repenting, I shouldn't have done that to you." β
The prince was almost laughed angrily, "You touched your conscience and said, do you believe this?" β
As he spoke, the prince took his other hand and jokingly swept it over Lianyi's left chest.
However, it didn't happen.
But his own heart, and Lianyi's heart, stopped beating for a moment.
"Believe," Lian Yi remembered Wei Qi's goblin state, and she also learned his righteous words, "It's just that it's easy for people to convince themselves, but it's hard to convince others." The slave doesn't know how to make you believe. β
Jin Bei, Yu Ming, and Hui Jiu followed silently and listened silently.
Chen Yu's face turned back to Tie Qing, "It's also simple, aren't you here for a menstrual affair?" It will be over in only five or six days, and when the time comes, you will do your best to sleep, what do I not believe? β
One sentence frightened Lianyi again, and she didn't dare to pit, so she walked back to the courtyard with the prince by the hand meekly and obediently.
The garden is lively. The eunuchs and palace maids who had been extinct for a whole day appeared again, and there were more than a dozen of them, and there was an endless stream.
Prince Chen Yu hurriedly put down Lianyi's hand and arched his hand to the two eunuchs in their fifties who were standing and talking face to face, "Grand Butler Ouyang, Grand Butler Shen." β
Lian Yi knew in her heart that these were the two palace managers, one was the celebrity next to Emperor Chen Qu, and the other was a henchman next to the queen mother. Although they say that they are eunuchs, their backgrounds are not bad, and now they have many connections in the government and the opposition, and their nephews and protΓ©gΓ©s are all properly arranged, so it is no wonder that even the prince has to give a good face.
Lianyi didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly went down.
The two old eunuchs laughed very happily, one of them said, "Oh, this is Little Concubine Xu!" Sure enough, it's beautiful and supple! β
"What's the matter with the old slave? Naturally, at the emperor's behest, Concubine Xu had just entered the palace, and the emperor gave her silk and satin cloth silver jewelry, and from tonight's imperial meal, she took out a few delicious things and rewarded them for her to eat. β
After hearing this, Lianyi quickly knelt down. Another old eunuch also continued to explain, "The same is true for the queen's mother, and she also specially told the little concubine not to see outside and not to miss home." In addition, the prince should not be wronged by the newcomer. β
This cross talk has not yet been finished, "The emperor heard that it was spread all over the palace and outside the palace, the streets and alleys, and the little concubine Xu Niangniang planted peach blossoms for the prince, and persuaded the two young people to take care of their bodies and flow for a long time." β
"The queen said the same thing, so she also packed a few packets of tonics."
waited until the two of them finished nagging, and all kinds of royal gifts were finally put away. The two big eunuchs knew that the prince looked polite on his face, and he hated the eunuch and the palace daughter in his heart in the past few days, and he didn't even drink tea, and left while chatting.
The crown prince Chen Yu sent out the door, and then pulled Lianyi up. "You come in, the others stay outside, I have something to ask Xu Lianyi."
