In the middle of the cold night, the wind shook the branches and the snow fell.

In the bedroom of the main hall of the Marquis of Zhongyong's mansion, the saffron candles are swaying, and occasionally the sound of lights peeling off is transmitted into the happy tent.

An octagonal sachet hangs in each of the four corners of the tent, delicately embroidered and exudes a strange fruity fragrance. The aroma is like a ripe cherry hanging on the branches, sweet and slightly sour.

This is the soothing incense that the bride Xu Nankui brought from the court.

It's hard to say how effective the soothing incense is, anyway, she has successfully slept with Xu Li beside her for nearly an hour.

Under the brocade quilt, Xu Nankui and Xu Li lay quietly together, and the distance between the two was so wide that they could almost stuff more people.

They both slept very well, and the posture in which they had each lay down an hour ago was still like that now.

On the wedding night, the scene of such a well water not violating the river water is really weird, but it can be taken for granted on them.

Although they are called husband and wife, they only really knew each other when they lifted their hijabs two hours ago.

After only looking at each other for a short moment, Xu Nankui could already see Xu Li's resistance to himself.

Fortunately, she didn't have much expectations for this marriage, not only was she not disappointed, but also took the initiative to propose a gentleman's agreement that "if you join hands to spend tonight, we will live together under the eaves in the future".

Even if it is a necessary obligation in marriage, if there is no premise of "you love me", it is not very interesting.

These two people, one of Xu Kangdi's favorite princesses and one of Xu Kangdi's favorite soldiers, had no intersection before, but one was in the inner house and the other was on the battlefield.

Even if Xu Lisheng was "good color", Xu Nankui had no appetite and couldn't sleep.

Thinking about Xu Li, he was in the same mood, and the two quickly reached a consensus.

After that, they go to the bed and close the tent, and both parties consciously keep their distance when they lie down. They froze for a moment, and gradually succumbed to the fatigue of the whole day's rituals, and they all fell asleep.

Suddenly, there was a jumble of footsteps outside the door, followed by a vague human voice.

Suddenly, the two people in the tent were alarmed at the same time in a half-asleep and half-awake, and they both opened their eyes vigilantly, and they ...... Raise your hand and jam the other person's neck.

In the silent confrontation, Xu Nankui's eyes slowly gathered, and his soul completely returned, and he finally saw the cold peach blossom eyes that were close at hand.

To be honest, Xu Lisheng was extremely good, and his peach blossom eyes were particularly outstanding. The pupils are a light amber color, clear to the point of being almost ethereal.

He is very focused and always straightforward. If it's a gentle and affectionate character, I'm afraid that it can make people addicted to it just by the flow of eyes.

It's a pity that he is notoriously cold and hard in the capital, and there is no trace of warmth in his eyes, just like a calm and secluded cold pool under the moon, which can easily "freeze" people to frost all over their bodies.

"I'm sorry, I'm not used to having people sleeping next to me," Xu Nankui took the lead in letting go of her hand, bending her eyebrows to release kindness, "I was confused for a while, forgetting that this was the wedding night." ”

After she unloaded the tension around her body, her voice was thin and difficult, and the tail of her words rose lazily, like a cat flicking its tail.

Xu Li rubbed the tips of his ears for no reason, let out a vague "um", and sat up neatly. He turned his head expressionlessly and looked at the approaching figure outside the golden red gauze tent: "Say." ”

He agreed, and the person who came trembled and said, "Your Highness forgives your sins." The crown prince personally came to the door to deliver His Majesty's message, asking His Royal Highness and the princess to go to the main hall quickly. ”

Xu Nankui, who was lying on his back, forcibly endured a yawn, with tears in his eyes, and met Xu Li's slightly blank gaze in surprise.

What a mess of charters?!

In fact, this is a drama arranged by Xu Kangdi, a big drama that evolves in order to seize power.

Although everyone knows it, at this moment, Xu Li is still very polite.

His handsome face was slightly tense, and he said coldly: "I'm sorry, please get up and go with me." ”

"Okay." Xu Nankui responded softly, with a smile on her face, but she couldn't help but mumble in her heart.

In the final analysis, it is still a loss of courtesy.

At the beginning of the hour, everything was silent, but the main hall of the Marquis Zhongyong's mansion was brightly lit and the people were noisy.

Because of the suddenness of the incident, Xu Nankui didn't have time to make up, so he could only wrap himself in a thick thick coat to make himself airtight, and then cover his head and face with a half-length double-layer muslin hat.

At this moment, she stood half a step behind Xu Li, hiding behind her hat and watching the situation in front of her.

The shadow is more than enough to see Xu Boxing, the prince of Qi, sitting on the main seat, with several important ministers of the Xu clan standing on the lower hand seat on the left, and several generals in military uniforms and anxious expressions standing on the right.

There was a dispute between the words of both sides, and they were gradually raising their voices unconsciously, as if this would convince the other side.

The prince was in the center but silent, and for a moment did not show any intention of mediation or decision.

And Xu Li, the protagonist of the dispute between the two parties, did not say a word, and stood there alone, as if thinking.

It turned out that this evening, after Xu Li and Xu Nankui completed all the ceremonies of their wedding and were sent to the cave room, the palace also received an urgent report from the border battlefield asking for help.

Emperor Xu Kang urgently summoned the crown prince into the palace, and after a little discussion, he decisively decided to send reinforcements, and sent the newly married loyal and brave Marquis Xu Li to accompany him, and went to the border to supervise the battle on behalf of the Son of Heaven to boost the morale of the army.

Xu Nankui turned his head to look at Xu Li with a hint of apology in his eyes, but after all, he still left a bad impression on the wedding night.

When they came out of the hall, the two of them looked at each other in wedding robes and wedding dresses, and then sat down in the pavilion in the courtyard.

Xu Li spoke first: "Why did you follow me to the border?" ”

Xu Nankui tidied up her messy hair a little and said, "What if I say that I am willing to live and die with you because I admire you?" ”

Xu Li couldn't suppress it, chuckled twice, and then said, "Your Highness, do you have a bad memory?" Forgot all the words you just said in the boudoir? ”

Xu Nankui was not embarrassed at all, but stretched out very casually and said, "Really? Maybe I said that, right? Maybe I want to see a piece of scenery over there? ”

Xu Nankui winked mischievously.

Xu Li looked at the dark night sky, and then said: "You and I have our own choices, although you are here to check and balance me, but you are my wife for one day, and I will protect you for one day." ”

Xu Nankui's heart moved unconsciously, as if a warm current slowly flowed into his heart.

Xu Nankui said with a smile: "Then, Nankui will inherit her husband's favor." ”

Xu Nankui woke up slowly, but did not open her eyes.

The memory of all this is like having experienced it myself, it is the memory that belongs to Xu Nankui, and it also belongs to the memory of Nankui, but in these two memories, Xu Li's promise has been obtained.

Nan Kui said with a hint of helplessness in his heart: "The two of us seem to owe Xu Li a favor." ”

After a long time, Xu Nankui's voice came out of his mind: "It's already the one who missed it, you and I have no room to maneuver, besides, haven't you already saved him this time?" This is punishable. ”

Nankui snorted and said, "Really? But why didn't you come out and stop me at that time? ”

After speaking, Nankui opened his eyes, there are some things, just point to the end.
