At the beginning of the chapter, > temporarily entrusted the restaurant to Li Daer and Xiaoyu to take care of, Yang Ruoqing set off with Bai Lao Wu overnight and rushed to Licheng, a hundred miles away.

The two fast horses took a short rest at the halfway post station.

After feeding the horses fodder and water, they set off on their way.

Finally, at noon the next day, I entered Licheng.

As the largest capital in the south and the fief of the southern prince, Licheng is the most prosperous city that Yang Ruoqing has seen since he crossed over.

On both sides of the street, there are many restaurants and shops.

The traffic is busy, the crowds are crowded, and the cries of various accents come and go.

All kinds of novel and strange small commodities are overwhelming.

If it were usual, Yang Ruoqing would definitely get off the horse and take a good look.

But at this moment, I am tired and worried about something, and I don't have any mood to watch.

"Uncle Bai, let's find an inn to settle down in first." She proposed.

Bai Lao Wu nodded.

The two immediately found an inn that could be called a chain in Daqi and asked for two rooms.

After a simple lunch, after returning to the house, Bai Lao Wu said to Yang Ruoqing: "I didn't close my eyes last night, Qing'er, you will stay in the inn to rest in the next day, and Uncle Bai will go out to see the old man first." ”

Yang Ruoqing nodded.

I asked the innkeeper for a bucket of water and took a good bath.

washed away the dust and exhaustion all over his body, and changed into a clean and neat dress.

With cloud-like hair, two simple but cute buns are tied on both sides of the head.

The rest of the hair hung down the side of the ear and was braided into a few thin braids.

She rarely wears flowers, so she took out a pair of blue camellia flowers that Luo Fengtang gave her last time and embellished them on her two buns.

He bought the camellia from a merchant from the Western Regions.

It matches the ice blue silk dress she wears, looking at the blue-clothed girl with fair complexion and delicate eyebrows in the mirror.

Yang Ruoqing hooked her lips and smiled.

Hundreds of miles to find a husband, she can't make herself sloppy.

It's been a long time, and he wants him to see her beautifully!

After picking up everything, she couldn't sleep.

I sat alone in the house for a while, watching the sun outside the house gradually turn west, and Uncle Bai had not yet returned.

She plans to go out on the streets, and maybe she'll meet Tang Lingzi!

Nanwang Mansion.

Luo Fengtang sat under the window, holding a piece of wood the size of a small radish in his hand, and was carving.

The sharp knife, carved with a knife, the originally polished smooth wood, was carved out of the sharp edges and corners of the facial features.

He gently blew off the wood slag on it, and then traced it carefully.

The originally plain little wood, under his hands, slowly took shape.

It turned out to be a girl's smile.

Delicate eyebrows and eyes, playful smile.

Looking at the familiar eyebrows and eyes that became clear little by little in his hand, Luo Fengtang's eyes deepened little by little.

"Ah, General Luo is really a pair of skillful hands, this wooden doll is really realistically carved!"

Behind him, a woman's surprised voice suddenly sounded.

Luo Fengtang turned around and looked, only to see that outside the open window, the county lord of Bingqing was standing there at some point.

When he turned, her smiling gaze shifted from the puppet in his hand to his face.

Looking at each other, her eyes dodged slightly, and two blush appeared on her pretty face.

"It's just a small skill of carving insects, which makes the county lord smile." He said lightly, without too much change in expression on his face.

Bing Qingying smiled, and Lianbu moved in from the door of the house over there.

"I just saw that General Luo was engrossed, and Bingqing couldn't bear to disturb the general."

"I was really amazed by the general's excellent carving skills, so I couldn't help but make a sound."

"Bingqing...... Didn't disturb you, General? ”

She asked cautiously with a shy smile.

Luo Fengtang shook his head lightly: "No, the county lord is serious." ”

Bingqing nodded, and his gaze fell on the puppet he was holding in his hand again.

"General Luo, Bingqing has always liked to collect these delicate gadgets."

"Bingqing has the courage to beg General Luo to give me this puppet, okay?" Bingqing asked.

Luo Fengtang's face showed a hint of embarrassment.

He lowered his eyes and looked at the puppet in his hand, and then at the Bingqing County Lord in front of him.

"County Lord, I'm really sorry." He spoke up.

"I carved this puppet in the image of my fiancée."

"I'm not afraid of the jokes of the county lord, I carved this puppet to comfort the pain of lovesickness when I miss her."

"The county lord wants a puppet, and I will carve a doll of a cat and a dog to give to the county lord, as long as the county lord does not dislike it."

His words were sincere and sincere.

However, listening to the ears of the county lord of Bingqing, it was like an awl piercing several bloody holes in her heart.

"That being the case, then Bingqing will not be loved by others."

She forced a smile and said, "But General Luo has to remember your promise, Bingqing is still waiting for the cat and dog doll you give!" ”

Luo Fengtang nodded silently.

Carving dolls to give to other women is not his style.

However, as long as you can keep this doll carved in the shape of Qing'er, let's make an exception!

Both of them stood awkwardly, and Luo Fengtang had no intention of beckoning Lord Bingqing to sit down.

He thought to himself, what excuse should he find to send this county lord away?

In this way, the lonely man and widow are alone in the house, and she also leaves the maid and the woman outside the house.

It's really inappropriate, it's inappropriate!

The county lord of Bingqing was also secretly looking at Luo Fengtang, who was standing stiffly in place, keeping a long distance from her.

I just felt that this man was too arrogant and indifferent.

Even, I don't understand the amorous style, and I don't pity the fragrance and cherish the jade.

However, when she saw the puppet carved in his hand, she was a little skeptical.

The enigmatic man, she can't read it.

But the more I can't understand it, the more I want to explore him, conquer him, and make him fall under his pomegranate skirt.

Just when the two of them were thinking about each other, the maid outside the house suddenly came in, still holding a gilded post in her hand.

"What is this?" The lord of Bingqing asked the maid.

The maid said: "It was Gongzi Kang who ordered someone to send it over." ”

"Gongzi Kang set up a banquet tonight in the city's 'Yipin Qingfeng Pavilion' and invited General Luo to the banquet."

A product of Qingfeng Pavilion?

Bingqing raised his eyebrows, and asked the maid again: "Have you inquired?" Who are the invited guests to the dinner tonight? ”

The maid hugged the names of several people in one breath.

These names are all unfamiliar to Luo Fengtang's ears, and he doesn't know half of them.

But Bingqing listened, but her eyebrows frowned slightly, and her face was unhappy.

She turned around to look at Luo Fengtang, but saw that there was no trace of rejection on Luo Fengtang's face.

Bingqing said: "General Luo, please forgive Bingqing's advice, it's better that you don't go to this banquet tonight!" ”

Luo Fengtang was surprised and looked at Bingqing.

"Why can't you go?" He asked. End of chapter - >
