Chapter Forty-Eight: I Want to Set Off on My Way to the Frontier
Shen Le'an showed a white smile to the old mother.
"I'll ask them, and I won't ask them to go with me, because I can't guarantee that I'll be safe and smooth all the time, and I can walk by the river all the time, so how can I not get my shoes wet? Their lives are also equally important, and the Blowing Flower Building also needs people to guard it, so if they want to, they will go with me, and if they don't want to, they will stay in the Blowing Flower Building, so do you say okay? β
The old mother hurriedly wiped away her tears: "Okay, okay, they must be willing to go." β
Shen Le'an nodded, let's talk about it.
"Then, you have already given the BMW to Yang Qi to ride back to Tianyuan Country, so will you find a new horse at that time?" The old mother asked.
"Well, that's all there is to it, buy a new batch of horses with a slightly faster pace, and you'll be done."
The old mother sighed and got up and wanted to leave: "Le'an, then, mom is here waiting for you to come back, okay?" β
"Okay."
Sheng Xuanhao hurriedly jumped to the roof beam to hide, the old mother really opened the door and walked out, and then she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and went downstairs.
After she left, Sheng Xuanhao got down from the beam, looked back at Shen Le'an's door, he turned around and went back to the room, passing by Liuli's room, Liuli quickly got up from the bed and opened the door, Sheng Xuanhao had already entered the room.
Xiao Zhuozi was packing up his things and making the bed, and when he saw Sheng Xuanhao walking in, he put down the movements of his hand and asked, "Childe, do you want to sleep for a while?" β
Sheng Xuanhao shook his head, turned around and sat down at the table, and poured a glass of water. Liuli thought about it and decided to go to Sheng Xuanhao, so she came to Huan Ya Ge, and just as she wanted to raise her hand and knock on the door, she heard the conversation inside.
"Little Zhuozi, why don't you go back to Lansheng Kingdom first." Sheng Xuanhao said. Liuli's hand didn't fall in mid-air for a long time, is he leaving?
"Huh? What about Childe? Don't you go with the small one? Little Zhuozi asked.
Sheng Xuanhao shook his head: "I plan to follow Miss Shen to the frontier to do something." β
Frontier, is it to follow Shen Le'an to find the frontier army? A hint of displeasure flashed in Ruri's heart.
"To the Frontier? It's far away there, Childe, that little nature has to follow Childe, the outside is not as good as here and the palace, Childe is extremely noble, how can you do it without someone to take care of you? "Xiao Zhuozi don't want to go back to Lansheng Country alone.
Sheng Xuanhao touched the water cup, "That thing still has to be put away, and when Miss Shen wants to get up and set off, let's follow." β
"Yes." Xiao Zhuozi responded.
Liuli turned around and walked back to his room slowly, so it seems that Sheng Gongzi, could it be that he has taken a fancy to Le'an?
Liuli returned to the room and sat down sullenly, and Xiao Yu put the folded clothes into the box: "Miss, the slave has seen too many of these clothes, and we have to pick out some and throw them away when we leave the Blowing Flower Building in the future." β
"Leaving the Blowing Flower Building?" Ruri muttered.
"Miss, what's wrong with you?"
Liuli's eyes suddenly lit up: "I have a way, I have a way." β
So Liuli ran to open the door and walked out, she was going to find Shen Le'an and tell her that she would also go to the frontier with her, so that she could follow Sheng Xuanhao and Sheng Gongzi again, and she stayed in the blowing flower building all day long and was a little disgusting, so it was better to go out and walk.
"Le'an, Le'an." Ruri knocked on the door excitedly.
Shen Le'an put down the clothes in his hand and walked over to open the door: "Liuli? Come in and sit. β
Liuli came in with a smile and sat on the chair and asked straight to the point: "Le'an, when are you going to go to the frontier?" β
Shen Le'an glanced at the clothes over there, "Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, I still have to choose a good horse and prepare a detailed road plan, and I need to take a careful inventory." β
Liuli grabbed her sleeve and said, "Take me, take me, let me come with you." β
Shen Le'an looked at her in surprise, and finally slowly pushed her hand away, "No, it's not safer outside than here, you can't follow me out." β
"Le'an, let me follow you, okay? I really want to go out and want to come with you, so you just let me go with you, okay? I'll protect myself, and I'll be the first to run away at a critical moment. β
"Nope." Shen Le'an shook his head and resolutely refused.
"Le'an! You just let me be with you, I won't trouble you, and I will protect myself, okay, please, do I want to stay in Fuhualou for the rest of my life? Ruri pleaded.
This last sentence made Shen Le'an look at her twice, yes, does she want to stay in the Blowing Flower Building for the rest of her life? If she is willing to accept her, is she willing to stay here for the rest of her life? Maybe one day, she will return to her Shu Fantasy Country, or she will meet the man she likes and get married and move out.
"You can go whenever you want, but you can't come with me." Shen Le'an still opened his mouth to reject her.
"Why, is it because of who I am? Are you still questioning me? Ruri couldn't help but ask.
Shen Le'an was silent for a long time, "I'm thinking about your safety, if you really have to leave with me, then let's go, but what if something happens to you?" What am I going to do? β
Liuli smiled: "No, I plan to let Xiaoyu stay in the Blowing Flower Building, I'll follow you like this, I'll be fine." β
Shen Le'an stared at the teacup on the table and thought for a while, An Fu's goal was himself, and Liuli had nothing to do with him at all, so she should be fine, right? Since she really wants to, let's be together, and have a care together.
"Okay, let's do this first, turn back, the day after tomorrow, we'll set off the day after tomorrow."
"Okay, hee-hee, thank you Le'an." Ruri smiled and stood up and turned to leave.
Liuli pushed open the door and came out and bumped into the little four and five standing at the door, she was startled, but given that the two were both bodyguards of the blowing flower building and had saved her, she slowly showed a smile and left.
Xiao Si and Xiao Wu still lingered at the door for a long time, and finally went back to their room.
The next day, Shen Le'an went straight to the stable after breakfast, she found the little maid and asked for a good horse, although it was not as good as her previous Lele BMW, but it was good enough to be able to run.
Shen Le'an handed the horse rope to Xiaocui, bothering her to help her keep it in the backyard, and she would take it away tomorrow.
Shen Le'an was about to go back to the room to practice the exercises, she lowered her head and climbed upstairs slowly, and suddenly a pair of white boots appeared in front of her, and she raised her eyes to see that it was Sheng Xuanhao.
"Shen Le'an, let's go have a meal and have some drinks together." Sheng Xuanhao said.
Shen Le'an was slightly stunned, "Okay." "Let's go for a trip, maybe Sheng Xuanhao will need to borrow some soldiers and horses for her in the future."
The two of them came downstairs and found a remote place to sit down, Sheng Xuanhao beckoned to the kitchen steward, and the kitchen steward ran over smartly: "What do Gongzi and Miss Shen want to eat?" β
Sheng Xuanhao looked at Shen Le'an, Shen Le'an pursed his lips: "I want a little vegetarian food." β
"Let's help us warm the pot again." Sheng Xuanhao added.
"Okay, you two, wait a minute."
"Aren't you afraid that I won't drink?" Shen Le'an asked.
Sheng Xuanhao smiled and said nothing, he still remembers that three years ago, the second brother rescued the woman who accidentally fell down on the second floor of the restaurant opposite the Blowing Flower Building because of drunkenness, how could he not know that she could drink.
It wasn't until the kitchen steward sent the servant to come up with the food and wine that the silence of the two was broken.
"Are you going to the Frontier?" Sheng Xuanhao asked while pouring wine for Shen Le'an and handing it over.
"Yes." Shen Le'an was slightly stunned, how did he know? But since you asked, you know, so I don't hide it from him.
This girl is very direct and frank. Don't say find an excuse to perfunctory yourself.
"Take me with you." Sheng Xuanhao drank all the wine in the cup.
"Why?"
"Because, if it weren't for the Anfu planning palace change, you would have been the noble crown princess of my Lansheng Kingdom."
Shen Le'an couldn't help but roll his eyes at him, this front foot had just walked a shy Yuan Xincheng who said that he was his fiancΓ©, why did there be a Sheng Xuanhao who almost became my husband on the back foot!!
"You've said it all, yes." Shen Le'an scolded him and said.
"Hahaha, however, I still suggest that you take me with you, because the frontier is very far away, and I don't think you can reach alone as a weak woman. Moreover, don't you know that when you go to the frontier, you will inevitably pass through a ghost mountain called Zhengjing Mountain? β
"Ghost, Ghost Mountain?" Shen Le'an asked timidly, why had she never heard of it, it couldn't be that he made it up to deceive herself, right?
"Yes, maybe you have been raised in the deep palace since you were a child, and you are the most precious princess of your father and queen mother, these people's horror stories will naturally not let you know, I am afraid that you will not dare to sleep at night." Sheng Xuanhao said with a wicked smile.
"Well, so what! I'm not afraid, I'm not doing anything wrong, I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid that it will come to me. Shen Le'an pretended to be brave and said.
"In this way, it may be that I am too worried, since you don't want us to go to the frontier together, then I will go home, and I will return to Lansheng Country tomorrow, you can do it yourself, it's better to come back alive, it's a pity to die outside, especially if you look good, in case a female ghost looks at your face, turn around and peel it off and put it on yourself, and use it to confuse those ordinary people, but the world will be in chaos, hey."
Sheng Xuanhao shook his head helplessly, then poured another glass of wine, picked up chopsticks and started eating.
Seeing Shen Le'an there in a daze, Sheng Xuanhao kindly reminded her: "Eat, if you don't eat again, it will be cold." β
The corners of Shen Le'an's mouth twitched, and he picked up the chopsticks and began to eat rice.
Sheng Xuanhao smiled, put a small cabbage into her bowl, and then ate by himself regardless of her stopping gaze.
As soon as the meal was finished, Sheng Xuanhao swaggered back to his room, while Shen Le'an sat in a daze until the kitchen steward came to collect the dishes and chopsticks.
"Why doesn't Miss Shen go back to her room, what are you doing sitting here?"
Shen Le'an gritted his teeth and asked, "Do you know Zhengjingshan?" β
The kitchen steward's hand holding the bowl paused, and he almost slipped the bowl down.
"I've heard it, haven't Miss Shen heard it?"
Shen Le'an's head was full of fear, isn't it, is there really this mountain, a ghost mountain? He didn't lie to me!
"So, what kind of mountain is that, isn't it, there are ghosts?" Shen Le'an asked in a trembling voice.
