Chapter 70: Great Qin. Border strips
Lu Haitang successfully missed the sacrificial ceremony this sleep, and because of the heroic act of rescuing the driver last night, no one dared to disturb her, and she slept until noon before waking up.
Chun Tao combed her hair in a bun, and said fearfully: "Boss, you are too risky, Your Majesty has the protection of General Meng Tian, how can you rush to the front with such a delicate and frail appearance." ”
Looking at the delicate and perfect facial features in the mirror, Lu Haitang stepped forward, closed one eye and looked at the other eye in the mirror, which seemed to be different from the memory of being a teenager, with a faint little starlight in the depths of his pupils, and he opened his eyes to see that it was gone.
"Okay, okay, I know, when will the sacrificial ceremony end?"
Tianbao sorted out the small schoolbag, jumped in front of Lu Haitang's mirror, blocked her sight, and said proudly:
"It was over an hour ago, and I slept like a pig, but if you want to watch it, my grandfather has recorded it."
You have to rely on it when it matters!
"If you don't look at it, what's there to see? It's not like I didn't see each other when I was a kid. Lu Haitang pushed Tianbao away, looked at the slightly pale lips, and always felt that something was missing, so he took the lip fat handed over by Chun Tao and wiped it carefully.
The delicate cherry lips instantly became delicate, and the skin as white as frost and snow revealed a faint layer of pink, and the spring peach was stunned.
"The boss is so good-looking! is definitely the first beauty in the Qin Kingdom, how beautiful and beautiful that Li Bijin was touted earlier is, but now it seems that it is less than one-tenth of the boss. ”
"Spring Peach ......"
"Alright, boss, don't talk about the slave." Chun Tao knew that Lu Haitang didn't like to listen to this, so she hurriedly packed up her things neatly and retreated.
Lu Haitang wandered around the Extreme Temple all day and didn't see Yingzheng, but was summoned by him at night, looked at a room of gentlemen, and sat in the vacant position next to Meng Tian without hesitation.
The room was very quiet, Ying Zheng raised his eyes and saw Lu Haitang sit down, his big hand with a clear distinction slowly opened the bamboo slips, and a deep voice came,
"My trip this time is not just a sacrifice, Longxi County and Beidi County were originally nomadic areas of Xirong, which are equivalent to the border areas of the Great Qin Empire. The stability of the region is extremely important and should be taken very seriously, but last night there were Assassins ......"
The slightly magnetic and deep voice Lu Haitang liked it a lot, and when he saw the voice pause, he couldn't help but look up at the deep eyes under Ying Zheng's crown.
"I don't know if I should say something about last night......"
Ying Zheng put the bamboo slips aside, and stood up habitually holding the hilt of the sword, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, a tall and straight but not brutal majestic figure domineering and noble under the background of black and gold Xuansheng,
"Speak."
"Although all of you here are some civil and military generals, and my words as a weak woman have little weight, I still want to say that this crossbow arrow has nothing to do with the people in the nomadic area."
Although Lu Haitang doesn't know much and has a poor memory, she can only change the direction of the crossbow arrow if she can pull the power of the jack of the tiger, which is enough to prove that this is definitely not an ordinary crossbow arrow in her hand.
At the very least, it has to be some kind of bed crossbow or something.
The soldiers nodded, and Meng Yi, who was sitting on the other side of Meng Tian and was handsome in a black official uniform, looked at the arrow and added:
"The production process of that crossbow arrow is similar to that of the original Korean craftsman, if you want to launch such a heavy arrow, you must at least use a thousand catties of crossbow crossbows, which can fire three crossbow arrows at a time."
Lu Haitang crossed Meng Tian and looked to the other side, gave a thumbs up, and said with a hint of appreciation: "Awesome, can you tell what kind of crossbow it is, your name is Meng Yi?" ”
"Meng Yi has heard of the reputation of Boss Lu for a long time, and the powerful crossbow bolt he received yesterday made Meng Yi extremely admired, if ......"
"Okay, today is to find out about last night's assassination, and we'll talk about the rest later."
Meng Tian interrupted Meng Yi's desire to befriend Lu Haitang, and stretched out his hand to pat Meng Yi, who was slightly stunned, didn't you see His Majesty's gloomy eyes?
Lu Haitang sat up straight but still looked at Meng Yi with his head sideways, revealing a mouthful of small white teeth and said with a smile: "It's a little meaning, I can't help but boast, I can eat with my face, but I rely on my strength, but it's also very helpless......"
Ying Zheng glanced at the increasingly swollen Lu Haitang, but did not reprimand, and continued to talk about the assassin and the security of the border zone, and no one could see what the expressionless His Majesty was thinking about this deer boss.
"Arrest and interrogate all the princes and nobles left over from the original Korea, Meng Tian, can you catch the assassin?"
Meng Tian hurriedly replied, "Your Majesty, that mountain peak has now become a sea of fire, and our people can't get close. "Tianhe
Hearing this, Ying Zheng returned to the main seat, thinking of the arrow that almost killed him, and the air pressure on his body was extremely low: "It seems that they are determined to kill, and the construction and transportation of this golden god crossbow are huge, and they continue to search the entire Longxi County." ”
Meng Tian received the order and saluted with his fists, and replied with a resolute gaze: "Yes!" ”
……
An hour later, all the others were gone, leaving only Lu Haitang alone, holding his chin with both hands and watching Yingzheng draw in boredom.
Under the flickering candlelight in the room, Ying Zheng stopped his pen, his sword eyebrows flew obliquely into his temples, his eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, his handsome face looked particularly detached, and his gestures naturally revealed a noble and cold temperament.
Looking back at Lu Haitang, who was staring at him in a daze, his thin lips pursed lightly, he stood up and walked out, and stopped when he passed in front of her,
"Why aren't you leaving?"
"Ah......? Oh! Lu Haitang came back to her senses, followed Ying Zheng, who was much taller than her, and did not go back to her room, under Zhao Gao's strange gaze, she calmly entered Ying Zheng's spacious and luxurious room.
Manager Li, who specializes in serving Yingzheng's daily life, has already prepared all the items for bathing, but he saw Lu Haitang standing there straight, hesitating whether to step forward and undress His Majesty.
When Manager Li was about to untie Yingzheng's waist leather belt, Lu Haitang couldn't help but say loudly: "Wait a while, wait a while, I have something to tell Your Majesty, you step back first." ”
If she doesn't say anything again, I'm afraid that Ying Zheng will really be undressed by Manager Li, and the Tianwen Sword has been taken off and put on the shelf, although there is some vague expectation in her heart, but she is a pure child!
Mr. Li has served His Majesty all his life, and he only needs to look at it to know His Majesty's thoughts, so he hurriedly retreated, carefully closing the door without making a sound.
Lu Haitang recalled Tianbao's words, and saw that Yingzheng turned to look at her without speaking, her sharp gaze was a little penetrating, and she couldn't help touching her nose and said:
"Didn't I just save you once, why didn't you say anything at all, can you reward me with something? What a gold medal for avoiding death, anything of value will do......"
Ordinary people's rescue skills have long been rewarded, and when it is her turn, she doesn't even use a fart, so she has to ask for it in person.
Lu Haitang's voice is very good, although there is a slight feeling of Susu, but it is not coquettish, nor is it very domineering, and the words that come out of her mouth are very deceptive.
"It's not enough to give you a gold medal to avoid death."
Ying Zheng said lightly, stepped forward and approached Lu Haitang to pick up her hand, the hand that was still bloody and blurred last night was as delicate as jade today, without flaws, and there was no trace of injury.
Lu Haitang had physical contact with Ying Zheng for the first time, although it was only a hand, but his heart kept bumping, and he tried to control it but had little effect.
Seeing her fair slender hands being held by a pair of big hands with normal skin tone and knuckles, the temperature was a little higher than her hands that always had a hint of coolness, and looked up at Yingzheng who was looking at her with scrutinizing eyes, Lu Haitang's heart finally calmed down.
"Don't look at it, you're talented, aren't you also ageless, we're on the same footing."
Anyway, lying will be seen, Lu Haitang can say whatever she has now, and it's none of her business to believe it or not.
"I have Imperial Doctor Xu's elixir, and what are you for? Do you know what happens if someone else knows what happened to you? ”
Ying Zheng's eyebrows were slightly furrowed, looking at Lu Haitang, who didn't take himself seriously at all, and he was vaguely angry in his heart.
Lu Haitang subconsciously held the warm hand of Yingzheng and the cold temperament, and thought again: "Treat me as a monster?" And then burn me? That's the worst of it......"
Sensing Lu Haitang's slender fingers holding him, a trace of ripples flashed in Yingzheng's eyes very quickly, let go of the slightly cool hand, and said coldly:
"Is it as simple as burning to death? Now that there are many Fangshi, and the Yin and Yang family advocates alchemy, if you exposed such a magical physique before you met me, you will only become a medicine slave. ”
Lu Haitang frowned, almost forgetting that there are all kinds of strange abilities in this world, if someone really knows that she is immortal, then she will really become Tang monk meat.
Fortunately, Ying Zheng only knew that her wounds healed very quickly, and he didn't know that she would never grow old or die, otherwise......
"Aren't you also letting that Imperial Doctor Xu refine the pill, why didn't you throw me to him?"
"I'm not interested in human flesh."
