Chapter 56: Plum Blossom Appreciation
Xiao Yan stood up reluctantly and pulled Fang Qingru and Zhang Ling to walk outside the warm pavilion.
Fang Qingru glanced back at Xiao Hou, her face full of resentment and grievances.
The county lord of Chaoyang had no intention of leaving, he sat down directly on the chair, his eyes turned on Jianing and Xiao Hou, that means, what are you talking about, I will be a witness.
Xiao Boyan: "......"
Because of the Chaoyang County Lord's side, Xiao Boyan didn't know what to do with Qingluan for a while.
"Chaoyang, you take Aunt Zhu out, I have something to say to Xiao Hou." Qingluan said slowly, his face calm, and he was like two people who were coquettish before.
The county lord of Chaoyang reluctantly stood up and muttered, "What can't I listen to?" ”
While speaking, he peeked at Jianing, and saw that she didn't mean to let go, so she had to take Aunt Zhu out of Jirui Pavilion.
"Brother Boyan," Qingluan raised his eyes and looked directly at the handsome man in front of him, suppressing the hatred in his heart again and again, "Daddy is sick in Western Xinjiang, do you know?" ”
Xiao Boyan lowered his eyes to look at her, and the emotion in his eyes was not obvious, "There is news from the Ministry of War that has reached the capital, and the courtiers know about it, and your majesty must also know about it." ”
"Brother Boyan, are you going to die?" Qingluan's eyes were flushed, and he insisted on not letting himself give him a knife.
"Jianing, the world is unpredictable, and I don't know ......"
"Nope! You know, you know if he's going to die, right? Qingluan couldn't hold back any longer, and tears rolled down.
Xiao Boyan was stunned, and his mood was a little complicated.
He didn't think that Jianing could find out his layout, she was so out of shape, it was possible that she suddenly heard that her father was seriously ill and asked for help from her. That's how she was when I remembered her, no matter what happened, I would definitely come to him and ask for help.
stretched out her slender fingers to wipe away her tears, and said softly: "Jianing, I really don't know...... Don't be sad, let's figure it out. ”
"Brother Boyan, don't let your father die, please ...... Don't let Daddy die. Qingluan sobbed, her eyes full of pleading.
Xiao Boyan sighed, took her into his arms, and said in a low voice: "Jianing, I know a doctor with excellent medical skills, can I let him go to the Western Xinjiang tomorrow?" I don't know if it's too late. ”
"It's just in time." Qingluan can only vaguely beg him to let his father go now.
She snuggled up to his chest like a wounded beast, but her mind recalled all kinds of scenes from her past life.
He always seemed to be like this, comforting himself with gentle and gentle words, but he didn't do anything.
But no matter what, she still came to beg him, begged him to let go.
Xiao Zhen, don't kill your father, otherwise, I, Wei Qingluan, will definitely let your whole family bury him!
Xiao Boyan took Qingluan's hand and walked to the side of the Luohan collapse to sit down, squatted in front of the girl and gently tried to tear away her tears with a silk handkerchief.
At this time, Jianing was well-behaved, and her appearance of pleading with herself made people feel pity, and suddenly she had the idea of satisfying her wishes.
If she had been so well-behaved, he could marry her as promised, and as for what happened in the future, he believed that he could settle it
"Jianing, Wei Dehou will be fine." Xiao Zhen's heart was full of tenderness, and he assured her, picked up the girl's face, and gently dropped a kiss on her forehead.
Qingluan stiffened and let him take him into his arms.
Seeing that the girl was so docile, Xiao Boyan suddenly felt a little distressed, and muttered: "Jianing, don't worry, I won't let your father have anything to do." ”
At the beginning of the new year,
Snow began to fall again in the sky over Luojing, which was the first snow of the new year, indicating that this year will be another good year.
Just after the fifth year of the first lunar month, the Eldest Princess's Mansion finally received a letter from Xijiang.
The letter was sent back by Han Zai's cronies, and Wei Dehou had recovered and would leave for Beijing in the near future.
"Aman! Your dad is fine, he'll be home next month. The eldest princess was as excited as a child, and took her daughter's hand to let her read the letter.
She hadn't seen her husband for several years, and when she knew that he was about to return home, she couldn't help but be ecstatic.
Qingluan unfolded the letter and looked at it, feeling sour in his heart.
Of course, it's good that Daddy can come back safely, but the military power in Western Xinjiang will fall into his hands, how can she not worry.
Can't you still escape the ending of your previous life?
"Mother, when Daddy comes back, let's go to my hometown to have a look, okay?" Wei Dehou's ancestral home is in Jiangzhou, which is also his fiefdom, more than a thousand miles away from Luojing, and if his father and mother live far away from Beijing, they may be able to avoid trouble.
The eldest princess nodded, "You and Xiao Dalang are destined not to get married, so it's good for our family to go to Jiangzhou to avoid the limelight." ”
After all, a lady will be criticized for being divorced, and her words are terrible, and it is not a good thing for her Aman to stay in Luojing, she is such a child, if it is not for the sake of her daughter in the second half of her life, she is reluctant to marry her to another family.
Seeing that her mother agreed to her suggestion without hesitation, Qingluan was a little relieved.
Before going to Jiangzhou, she had to try her best to remove several big hidden dangers for the emperor's uncle.
15th Lantern Festival,
Qingluan and Chaoyang Lilan met to visit the night market lights on Suzaku Street.
During the three-day curfew of the Lantern Festival, families in Luojing City brought their children and daughters to the only open night market in a year.
All kinds of businesses will be allowed to set up stalls on both sides of the wide Suzaku Street; When night falls, countless lights are lit on this street, illuminating the whole street as bright and beautiful as the Milky Way.
The emperor and the concubines of the inner palace will also appear in the pavilion of the Suzaku Gate of the imperial city, watching the night view of the lantern market while celebrating with the people from afar.
"Jianing! Come and see! The lanterns here are very kitschy, let's buy one. The county lord of Chaoyang was dressed in a flaming red beard suit, and pulled Qingluan and Li Lan to a stall selling lanterns and squeezed in.
There was a commotion in the crowd, and only someone shouted, "What a crowd!" ”
Qingluan was very familiar with this voice, and after thinking about it for a while, he knew who it was.
She turned her head and quietly glanced at Wei Shishi behind her.
At this time, Wei 14 and Wei Qi were dressed as weak scholars, wearing soap gauze on their heads, and their faces were covered with Kunlun slave masks.
"Bastard! Dare to grab something from Ben! How many heads do you have! ”
Fang Xiao was dressed in a gorgeous costume, dressed as an ordinary noble son, and was pointing at a young son of a family and scolding.
"Hey! It's great if you're the young master of Fangfu, Lao Tzu wants this lamp! Come! Grab it for me! The red-robed boy beckoned his servants to grab the twelve-screen glass beauty.
The workmanship of this lamp is indeed exquisite, and what is even more rare is that the twelve beauties drawn on the glass screen will slowly turn the lamp, their expressions and movements will change differently, as if they are alive.
Several of the servants of the red-robed boy pushed and shoved the people gathered in front of the stall, and when they raised their feet, they were about to jump on the high platform to grab the glass lanterns hanging on the shelves.
Fang Xiao, who was standing next to the high platform, snorted coldly, flew up and kicked them out of the crowd with a flying kick.
For a moment, people screamed in pain.
There was also a bewitching lady beside Fang Xiao, who was frightened by this scene, and shouted tremblingly: "Xiao Lang, let's not want it." ”
