Chapter 499 Door-to-door courtship, finale
Well. Lu Yao stretched out his hand and gently stroked his face, looked at Xiao Chu and said, "General Xiao, Yanran said...... You were injured while collecting medicine for me, where did it hurt? Can it be severe? ”
There was worry in her words, but a smile curled into Xiao Chu's lips.
"Yaoyao, are you worried about me?" Xiao Chu said, Lu Yao sat down on the edge of the bed, looking at his white shirt slightly open, his shoulders and chest wrapped with gauze, faintly visible blood, just a glance, but her tears couldn't stop falling.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Chu asked, but Lu Yao pouted and cried: "General Xiao is all my fault, I have been ignoring you these days, I didn't expect you to be injured for me, everyone knows that you are injured, I am the last ......"
There was a bit of self-reproach on her face, and tears on her eyelashes looked very pitiful.
Lu Yao was sad, and suddenly felt a hand gently touch her face, gently wiping her tears for her, she raised her eyes in shock, and she didn't know what to say for a while.
"Why blame yourself? I'm willing to do this for you. Xiao Chu said, in the past, it was Lu Yao who paid for him, he just made a lukewarm and indulgent character, and now it should be his turn to treat her sincerely.
"Then you still want to go back to Jiangnan?" Xiao Chu asked, looking at Lu Yao's confused eyes, he chuckled and said, "You better go back as soon as possible, your father should come to pick you up in a few days." ”
"You ......" Lu Yao's heart lit up, with a little disbelief: "Do you really agree with me to go back to Jiangnan?" ”
She thought that he had done this for himself to redeem himself, but now he was actually going back to Jiangnan?
"Hmm." Xiao Chu nodded, looking at the unconcealable loss in Lu Yao's eyes, he gently pinched her face and said, "Go back as soon as possible, so that I can go to the mansion as soon as possible to ask for a kiss." ”
"What?" Lu Yao felt thunder in his ears, and he just said that he was going to come to the door to ask for a kiss?
Xiao Chu said again: "The fifth day of the first month of next month is a good day, I look very good, why don't you set it on that day?" ”
Lu Yao's mood was up and down this day, but the joy in her heart at the moment could not be hidden, she asked tentatively: "However, your marriage contract with Miss Du is not counted, will it cause criticism if you propose to the Lu Mansion in such a hurry?" ”
"I answered the marriage letter that day, I just want to go to Jiangnan as soon as possible to ask for marriage, how can I be in a hurry?"
Lu Yao frowned suspiciously, and a kind of expectation suddenly rose in his heart, could it be that all this was premeditated?
However, Xiao Chu only smiled slightly, and smiled at her: "There is still one month before you become Mrs. Xiao." ”
After coming out of the General's Mansion, Lu Yao felt that her footsteps were all erratic, and Xiao Chu's words made her feel unreal.
As soon as she came out, she saw Agarwood standing at the door, leaned over and saluted her, "Miss Lu, the queen has been waiting for you for a long time." ”
"Gao Weihu is pregnant, if you think the villa is too boring, you can also go to the palace to accompany her, she will definitely be very happy, it just so happens that there are some body-conditioning medicines to be given to her, and she has not found a suitable opportunity." Liu Yingjiang said that he didn't know when Gu Yanran was depressed, so he thought that if she was with Gao Weihu, she would definitely be happier.
"Young Master Liu, you are very interested in Gao Wei Lake." Gu Yanran said, with a little uneasiness and nervousness in her eyes.
In fact, as soon as she asked this question, she knew that she had lost.
She has always known that Liu Yingjiang is happy with Gaowei Lake, and she has been silently waiting by her side for so many days, she has jealousy and envy in her heart, but she still chooses to stay by Liu Yingjiang's side.
Unexpectedly, he still cared about her so much, which made Gu Yanran's heart full of despair.
Liu Yingjiang was a little surprised by Gu Yanran's words, he looked at it and said: "Gao Weihu is my friend, Miss Lu knew that she was pregnant, so she asked me to provide her with some houses to recuperate." ”
Gu Yanran didn't know if Liu Yingjiang was explaining to herself, or if she was making excuses for herself to be as good as ever for Gao Weihu, she tried to hide the emotions in her heart, and raised her eyes with a gentle and moving smile: "I see, I think too much, but Gao Weihu is pregnant now, so she should take care of her body, but don't neglect these." ”
Liu Yingjiang lifted the teapot and slowly added tea to her, and said: "Many people in the palace serve and take care of her, and you and I don't need to worry about it, live your own life now." ”
There was a bit of relief in his words, Gu Yanran nodded, and after a long silence, Gu Yanran slowly spoke: "Young Master Liu, I think, I should go back." ”
"Go back?" Liu Yingjiang had surprise in his eyes, he was a little puzzled at first, and finally understood that Gu Yanran meant to be a little stunned.
It was rare for Gu Yanran to see such a rich change in expression on his face.
"Well, I've been in the villa for too long, and I have to go back to Qianshui Town." Gu Yanran plucked up the courage to say, forcing herself to show a relaxed look, but she couldn't stop feeling sad in her heart.
Liu Yingjiang's expression returned to his usual calmness, but there was still a bit of abnormality in his words, "It's not a disturbance, it's just that I haven't heard you say you want to go back these days, why do you want to go back today." ”
"I ......" Gu Yanran felt a little lost in his heart, he didn't mean to keep himself in his words, he just asked the reason.
"It doesn't matter, if you want to go, go ahead." Liu Yingjiang said, took a sip of tea, and lowered his eyes to hide his emotions.
Gu Yanran's heart sank slowly, cold as water, she didn't expect Liu Yingjiang to have no intention of keeping at all, she smiled bitterly and said, "I'll leave tomorrow." ”
The sun outside the window shone into the teahouse, falling on Gu Yanran's fair cheeks, and her long eyelashes cast a faint shadow, she always had a little smile, but it never reached the bottom of her eyes.
Gu Yanran really left on the second day, she left very early, Liu Yingjiang didn't even get up, looking at the familiar courtyard, the loss and reluctance that surged in her heart couldn't be calmed, she stayed here for more than half a year, and it was false to say that she had no feelings.
Her eyes looked at Liu Yingjiang's house, without making a sound, and she laughed at herself and thought that in Liu Yingjiang's heart, she was probably just a guest.
The tea was boiled as usual, and the newly fallen leaves were swept away, and when he saw that the sky was very good, he took out the herbs and exposed them to the sun, at this time in the past, Liu Yingjiang should have gotten up to practice martial arts, but Gu Yanran did not see him.
She picked up the burden on the side and left the villa silently.
In the room, Liu Yingjiang stood in front of the window, her eyebrows sad.
Gu Yanran's return caused a lot of waves in the patriarch's villa, the patriarch was sick, and when he heard that Gu Yanran was back, he was surprised to get up from the bed and looked very good.
"Father, daughter is not filial." Gu Yanran looked at her elderly father and couldn't help crying.
"Yanran, you're back." There was excitement in the patriarch's eyes, these days he has been sending people to find Yanran's whereabouts, from the anger and shock at the beginning to the uneasiness and panic later, but also after a serious illness, between life and death, he suddenly understood a lot.
This power and wealth, how can it be important to have a daughter.
"Father, Yanran is back, it's all Yanran's bad...... It took so long to come back to see my father. Gu Yanran said, tears fell uncontrollably, the patriarch held her hand, trembling and said, "It's good to come back, it's good to come back." ”
Yanran lived in the Patriarch's Villa and resumed her identity as the eldest lady, and for a while, the people in the rivers and lakes talked about it, didn't Gu Yanran marry the alliance leader Murong Tian in the past? Why did Gu Yanran suddenly appear again?
The patriarch and Murong Tian both said in unison that it was the patriarch's righteous daughter who married Murong Tian, and Miss Gu had already had a marriage contract, and there were other people.
The patriarch said this for Gu Yanran's honor and innocence, while Murong Tian said this for his own reputation and face.
"Miss, why did you get up so early? It's not yet an hour. The maidservant was cleaning in the garden, and was very surprised to see Gu Yanran get up, Gu Yanran looked at the gray sky, and a burst of amazement swelled in her heart, she smiled lowly and said: "I'm used to it, I haven't changed it for a while, it's okay, let's do it earlier." ”
At this time in the past, she should have started making tea and making breakfast in Liu Yingjiang's villa.
Now that I think about it, it's just the past.
"What about the Queen?" Beitang Jinyu stepped into Qifeng Palace, and did not see the figure of Gaowei Lake everywhere, Agarwood and other palace maids leaned over and saluted: "Back to the emperor, the queen mother asked Mrs. Xiao to watch the snow in the small mirror pool." ”
There was a sweet incense burning in the dormitory, and the little prince was sleeping fragrantly, Beitang Jinyu slowed down and walked over, gently stroked the little prince's face, and showed a little smile on his lips.
In the spring of last year, Gao Weihu gave birth to a little prince, and Beitang Jinyu canonized him as the crown prince on the day of the 100-day banquet, which was the first honor in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
"Good life takes care of the prince." Beitang Jinyu said and walked out of the dormitory, heading in the direction of the small mirror pool.
The plum blossoms next to the small mirror pond are blooming very well, one by one clustering, the branches are dyed with a little brocade red, Gao Weihu is wearing a white fox fur, and is slightly tiptoeing to reach out to explore the plum blossoms.
"Queen Mother, it's cold and snowy outside, let's go into the pavilion." Liuzhu said, for fear that Gao Weihu would freeze his body.
"It's okay, your mother's body is hard." Lu Yao smiled, reached out to pick up the little bit of snow, stretched out her hand to support her waist, her stomach was already seven or eight months old, and the maidservants on both sides were very careful to protect her.
Gao Wei Hu broke off a plum blossom, and was about to happily hand it to Lu Yao, but unexpectedly, his feet were unstable and fell to the side, and Liu Zhu on the side panicked and wanted to catch Gao Wei Lake, but someone was one step faster than her.
Falling into a warm and familiar embrace, with a faint ambergris, Gao Weihu was hugged tightly, and a voice could be heard from above: "Why are you so careless?" What if I fall? ”
Gao Weihu stood firmly, stretched out his hand to hold Beitang Jinyu's hand, and said with a smile: "Didn't you know that the emperor would come to pick up the concubine?" ”
With a delicate smile on her face, Beitang Jinyu reached out and nodded her forehead and said, "Flim tongue." ”
The palace maids and eunuchs on the side asked for peace one after another, and Beitang Jinyu raised his hand and said to Lu Yao: "General Xiao has gone to the training ground, and he should come back later." ”
Lu Yao nodded, and was supported by the palace maid into the pavilion and sat down, Gao Weihu looked at her stomach and asked, "Yaoyao, General Xiao is really conniving at you, when I was pregnant with Chen'er, Beitang Jinyu didn't allow me to go anywhere." ”
"Sister Gao Weihu, don't talk about it." There was a little resentment between Lu Yao's eyebrows, and she said: "It's more difficult to enter this palace than to ascend to the sky, don't you know how long I've been looking forward to it, where will Xiao Chu indulge me?" Don't eat that, don't play! ”
A smile appeared on Gao Weihu's lips, she raised her eyes and said, "It's okay, it's only been two months no matter how difficult it is, and when the child falls to the ground, you will be free." ”
Beitang Jinyu stretched out his hand and stroked Gao Huanhu's black hair, and said, "Don't teach her badly, everyone is as playful as you." ”
Lu Yao smiled, stretched out his hand and gently stroked his high bulging belly, with a happy smile in his eyes.
The three of them sat for a while, and Xiao Chu's figure came here, and Lu Yao waved his hand excitedly.
"See the emperor, see the queen." Xiao Chu saluted and sat down at the signal of Jinyu in the North Hall, and he asked Lu Yao with concern: "Yaoyao, how do you feel today?" If it's cold, go into the house, it's windy outside. ”
"I felt warm and didn't want to go back." Lu Yao said coquettishly: "I just want to stay outside, and I finally look forward to the snow, but I haven't seen enough yet." ”
"This is a letter from my father-in-law from Jiangnan." Xiao Chu took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Lu Yao, Lu Yao took it happily, and said, "Father said that he would bring his family to the capital when spring begins, is it true?" ”
Xiao Chu nodded and said softly: "Father-in-law and mother-in-law are very worried about your body, so they will come to the capital together to have a look, and I will arrange for someone to pick them up." ”
Lu Yao's eyes were red, she pulled Xiao Chu's sleeve, and said, "General Xiao, you are so good to me, I like you so much......" looked like she was about to cry, Xiao Chu looked at Gao Weihu and Beitang Jinyu, who were sitting calmly opposite, and whispered to Lu Yao: "The emperor and queen are still there, go back and talk about it." ”
Lu Yao was buried in his arms, refusing to come out, full of cuteness.
"Your Majesty, the plum blossoms next to this small mirror pool are blooming very well, we might as well go and take a look." Gao Weihu said, holding Beitang Jinyu and leaving.
The two walked under the plum tree, Gao Weihu secretly glanced at the two people hugging each other in the pavilion, and said with a smile: "It's been almost two years since they got married, and the two of them are still so tired." ”
Beitang Jinyu stretched out his hand to stop Gao Weihu's waist, hugged her tightly in his arms, and said with a smile: "The queen and I have been married for more than two years, and they are even more crooked than before. ”
Gao Weihu had already been accustomed to his sudden intimacy, she reached out to hold his hand, raised her eyes to look at the plum tree full of first snow, and smiled slowly: "Beitang Jinyu, time flies so fast, two years have passed in the blink of an eye." ”
"We have a lifetime left." Beitang Jinyu said, her eyes were full of warmth, Gao Weihu turned to face Beitang Jinyu, she watched the fine snow fall on his black hair and eyelashes, she showed a little naughty smile: "Beitang Jinyu, you see this snow falling all over the head, when you and I are old, this is what it looks like." ”
The glint in Kitado Jinyu's eyes was victorious, and he leaned over and kissed her on the lips.
