Chapter 260 Cold
Chapter 260
If it weren't for the dull pain in her head, Banniang would have suspected that she was in a dream at this time.
Still, she closed her eyes.
The cold hard ground, the body temperature in his arms.
Coveting this moment, just because I know that it may be the only moment in this life that I can be so close to him.
"Yun Shan."
His whisper, with uncertain hesitation, like a whisper in a dream, "Is it really you?" ”
Banniang opened her eyes.
The moon is like practice, and the lights and shadows are like burning.
She was so close to him.
She wanted to get a good look at him.
Four eyes touched.
What is in his eyes, is it a surprise? Pity? Reluctant? Still missing?
A smile appeared at the corner of Banniang's mouth. But he is reluctant to break away, even if it is a moment longer.
A moment of greed. It's okay for a while.
But I listened to the sound of my palms hitting each other.
Someone laughed and said: "It's not a loss to be a celebrity in front of the official, and his skills are good, only, Di Erlang." You are holding someone like this and not letting go, looking like you are affectionate, what is going on? Aren't you afraid of jokes when you say it? What's more, the ground is very cold, I said, even if you are not afraid of the cold, this little boy may not be afraid, right? ”
Banniang was burned by this sentence, and her face was like fire. After a while, Di Yong didn't let go, but held on to her hand tightly until she got up.
Banniang then remembered Chai Nineteen, but saw him standing on the horse safe and sound, his expression was cold, he glanced at him and Di Yong, his eyes were obscure, and then he looked at the man who spoke just now, and then he spoke: "Zhao Wulang." ”
Banniang followed Chai Nineteen's gaze, the one he called Zhao Wulang, was looking at Chai Nineteen with an uninhibited face at this time, hugged his fists idly, pulled the corners of his mouth, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect King Yijun to be here, Zhao Wu has seen King Yijun." ”
Chai Shijiu nodded, and before he could speak, he saw the carriage that almost crashed into them just now, poking its head out. Seeing Chai Nineteen, he jumped out in surprise, although his face was still a little pale because of fright, but he laughed: "Brother Nineteen, why are you here?" ”
"Qinghe? What's going on with your carriage? Chai 19 frowned, and scolded the coachman who was still sitting in the carriage: "How did you catch the car? If something happens to Qinghe, how many lives do you have to pay? ”
"Villain, villain." The coachman seemed to want to explain, but he didn't dare to explain.
However, Qinghe regained his demeanor, showed his delicateness, and said, "Nineteenth brother, this horse is shocked." Fortunately, this time there is the second brother of the Di family to follow, if not... ”
As he spoke, he looked at Di Yong standing on the side of the road.
Chai Shijiu was silent for a moment, but did not answer, and smiled at that Zhao Wulang: "If it weren't for Zhao Wulang, you just made a move, I'm afraid that this king and Qinghe will be injured." This love was recorded by this king. The king of Japan will definitely visit him to thank him. ”
The man named Zhao Wulang just shook his head when he heard this: "Why should King Yijun be polite? I just passed by, and when I saw that the horse was frightened, I forcibly pulled the horse's head away, if it wasn't for Di Erlang saving your friend in time, I was afraid that your friend would definitely be injured at this time. Okay, since there is nothing to do, there is still something to do, so don't let it go. ”
Chai Shijiu nodded, and said to Zhao Wulang: "I heard that Dingnan Houye has not been in good health recently, but unfortunately this king has been busy recently and has not come to visit, and I also ask Zhao Wulang to help me say hello after I go back." ”
Hearing Chai Nineteen mention Dingnanhou, Banniang couldn't help but glance at this Zhao Wu. I can't help but feel that the facts of the world are making people sigh, if time and space have not been reversed, this Zhao Wugongzi in front of him is the serious king and grandson of the Great Song Dynasty.
But Zhao Wulang pulled the corners of his mouth, and said with a smile that he was all concerned about: "King Yijun is polite." Zhao Wu said goodbye. As he spoke, he turned the horse's head and glanced at the county lord of Qinghe, and then beat the horse and left. It didn't drag the mud and water at all.
Qinghe looked at Banniang and asked Chai Nineteen with a smile: "Brother Nineteen, is this your friend?" I'm sorry that my carriage ran into him. He asked Banniang again, "Is Childe injured?" ”
"It's okay, the king doesn't have to worry." Banniang smiled and shook her head.
"It's late at night, why are you here alone? Why isn't there a maid around? Is there anyone in the palace following? Chai Jiu frowned and glanced at Qinghe and asked.
Qinghe glanced at Di Yong, and replied in a coquettish voice: "Today, I was a guest at the nineteenth sister-in-law's maiden Liuguo Mansion, and it happened that Second Brother Di was also there, and I had dinner, and the Guogong Mansion also sent me back to the house according to the line, but I just happened to meet Second Brother Di, so I invited Second Brother Di to send me, I don't want to be shocked in front of me, so it's just. By the way, Brother Nineteen, why are you here? ”
"I'm sending my friends home." Chai Nineteen nodded.
When Qinghe heard this, he glanced at Banniang, and wondered in his heart, what an arrogant person the nineteenth brother is, and the little man in front of him is ordinary, and his appearance is only delicate, and the nineteenth brother actually sent him home? Not to mention that he is so inconspicuous, he is usually his cousins, and it is rare for him to have a good face. How considerate has he been?
For some reason, she felt uncomfortable in her heart when she looked at Di Yong and this skinny little boy standing together.
I remembered that when the carriage and horse were forcibly dragged away just now, the curtain of the car was lifted by the wind, and in an instant, I saw Di Yong rolling on the ground with this little boy in his arms, and the discomfort was even worse, so he said: "Even so, I won't bother Brother Nineteen." Looking at Di Yong again, he smiled sweetly, because of the fright just now, there was still a little paleness on his face, this smile was extremely weak, his eyes were like autumn water, and his smile was like a warm breeze in early spring, and he was worthy of her name as the first beauty in the capital: "Second brother Di, we won't disturb Brother Nineteen and his friends, you can send me home." ”
Di Yong glanced at Banniang, with a little dispute in her eyes, but she still nodded silently.
But he heard Chai Nineteen say: "Qinghe, since your carriage is frightened, how can I rest assured?" Forget it, I'll send you back in person, it just so happens that I haven't asked the fourth uncle for a long time. ”
didn't wait for Qinghe to object, and said to Di Yong: "Ah Yong, you can help me send Xiaoba." ”
Banniang wanted to object, firstly, she was not sure whether Di Yong knew Lu Seventeen's residence, secondly, she instinctively resisted Di Yong knowing that he and Lu Seventeen lived together, and thirdly, when she saw the county lord of Qinghe, it would be a lie to say that there were no waves in her heart, and because of the beauty that she only had in her picturesque dreams under the moonlight, she felt that she was really incomparable with the proud girl of this day. It's not that she's arrogant, it's just self-aware. She really didn't know how to face Di Yong at the moment.
In fact, if you think about it, the opportunity for her and Di Yong to be alone is just once.
Although it was only that time, under the afterglow of the sun, the figure that slowly disappeared, but for some reason, it seemed to be engraved in his blood.
Before he could speak, he had already heard Qinghe sneer: "Brother Nineteen is so busy, let's let Second Brother Di send me." ”
Chai Shijiu ignored him, only looked at Di Yong, who had been silent and did not make a sound, and said, "Ah Yong? ”
"Yes, I'll send Zeng Bagongzi back."
Qinghe frowned, and said coquettishly: "Nineteenth brother. . . ”
Chai Nineteen ordered the horse lane: "What are you still doing in a daze?" ”
When the coachman heard this, he hurriedly drove his horse: "County lord, get in the car." ”
Qinghe had to reluctantly get into the carriage under the gaze of Chai Nineteen, she had always been a little afraid of this cousin. But in the end, he was unwilling, lifted the curtain, showed a smile like a summer flower, and smiled softly at Di Yong: "Second brother Di, in a few days, it will be my sixteenth birthday, will you come with my nineteenth brother to celebrate my birthday?" ”
Di Yong lowered his eyes and responded: "I need to be on duty in the palace in a few days, but I am afraid that I will disappoint the county lord." ”
"Then I'll talk to Uncle Huang, and let Uncle Huang give you a day off that day?"
In addition to the princess in the palace, the county lord of Qinghe, who was born in the palace of Prince Yue, among the daughters of the princes, because of her soul intelligence, is the most favored by the saint, if she speaks, such a trivial matter, the saint has the intention of giving Qinghe to Di Yong, one is his favorite niece, and the other is the talent he admires the most, he is naturally happy to see it, and how can he refuse.
After Qinghe finished speaking, he opened his eyes and looked at Di Yong innocently and full of expectations.
Before Di Yong could reply, Chai Shijiu had already reprimanded: "Qinghe, you are becoming more and more ignorant, how can you delay your business because you have fun?" Do you know how to play all day long like Ah Yong and you? Why don't you go quickly? ”
He turned his head and instructed Di Yong: "Ah Yong, Xiaoba will be handed over to you." ”
As he spoke, he urged the horse to get up.
Di Yong nodded, and when the carriage was far away, he asked Banniang: "Just now, did you touch your head?" Does it hurt? Let me see. ”
Banniang tilted her head, avoided his outstretched hand, and smiled, "It doesn't hurt." ”
"Yun Shan... Seeing her avoid herself, Di Yong withdrew her hand in frustration.
Banniang said "um".
For a moment both of them were silent.
Until Di Yong untied the vermilion cloak on his body, draped it on Banniang, and helped tie it, Banniang struggled and said: "I'm not cold, you... ”
Di Yong took her horse and said, "Get on the horse." ”
As he spoke, he helped Banniang to get on the horse, and jumped off his white horse: "Where do you live?" ”
"Over there in the East Corner Tower." Banniang responded.
"Where is Lu Changqing?"
Banniang nodded.
Di Yong couldn't help but pause as he pulled the hand of the rope.
"When did you come?"
Banniang said: "It's only been a few days since I entered Beijing. ”
"Is it a long stay?"
Banniang shook her head.
Di Yong couldn't help but feel disappointed in his heart.
I heard Banniang say: "Is that the one just now the county lord of Qinghe?" I used to hear people talk about it, but I didn't expect that at first sight, she really deserved the name of the first beauty in Bianjing. I heard Brother Seventeen say that your relationship with the county lord is about to be decided, congratulations. ”
"Yunshan, I and the county lord will not be married."
Banniang was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly diverted the topic: "Di Gongzi, I heard that Brother Seventeen said that you were promoted again, and I haven't congratulated you yet." ”
"Why didn't you reply to the last letter?"
She didn't dismantle it at all, so how could she go back? Banniang smiled: "I am often out and have few times at home, so it is inconvenient to write letters, and it is rude for me to fail to reply in time." ”
No matter how busy you are, don't you even have time to reply to a letter? Especially the letter ...
Di Yong's bitter laughter.
Yes, he thinks too much and expects too much. What's more, there is still Lu Changqing in the middle, if it weren't for Lu Changqing's words to hint to him that he was only Yunshan's sister, and there was no love between men and women, and he wanted to divorce Banniang, but it was just in the way of the relationship between the two families, so he dragged it down, how could he write that letter to Banniang?
Every time he thought that if she knew Lu Changqing's thoughts, she would be sad about it, he was faintly distressed.
He didn't understand that Lu Changqing would not like her. It's like he doesn't understand why he can't forget in his heart, this stupid girl who only has a plain face, and for the first time, all the embarrassment is presented in his eyes.
If you talk about it, where is Lu Changqing inferior to himself? Banniang can have such an excellent husband, shouldn't he be happy for her? But he said she didn't like her. When he first understood the meaning of Lu Changqing's words, the joy in his heart was like a wave from it, like a light coming out of the darkness.
He knew that it was abrupt to write such a letter to a young lady who had not yet left the cabinet, and the letter was entrusted to Lu Seventeen to give it to her, she probably didn't know Lu Seventeen's thoughts, right? How do you ask her to reply?
After the letter was handed over to Lu Changqing, she counted the days of Lu Changqing's return, calculated when she would see his letter, and thought about how she would reply to him.
But after waiting for so long, he didn't want tonight, he would really hold her in his arms, and see her really standing in front of him, under this moonlight, with her real company.
After being silent for a while, Di Yongcai said, "How can you be with the county king?" ”
"I went to eat in Fengle Building with Li Yong, and I met by chance." Banniang pressed the bitterness in her heart and replied with a smile.
"This time you came back to visit Lu Changqing? If it's ,,, convenient, I'll be the east another day, and I invite you and Lu Changqing to have a meal together. ”
"No, I have something to come to Beijing, and it just so happened that the seventeenth brother returned to Beijing, thinking that he would take care of him on the road, and my father and mother would be more relieved, so I went through Beijing with him."
She said that there was something, and she thought it was a business matter, if she opened a store in the capital, wouldn't she be able to stay in Beijing in the future? Di Yong couldn't help laughing, but when he thought of Lu Changqing, he couldn't help but be gloomy.
To be able to see her, to see her smile, to hear her voice, is it a happiness for him, right?
"It's the New Year in a few days, I will have more holidays, if you need my help, you just have someone to send me a letter."
"So thank you Di Gongzi." Banniang responded.
"Di Gongzi?" Her birth made him slightly hurt, "Didn't you always call me Ah Yong before?" Call me the same as before. ”
Banniang smiled.
"Okay, Ah Yong."
Her voice is soft, with a bit of Jiangnan unique sweetness, as if it can soak the heart into the spleen.
Once upon a time, in the summer dusk, she had called herself in such a soft voice, and at that time, he felt that his name, spit out of her lips, was the most moving voice in the world.
She was so close to herself then.
Just like the moment he hugged her on the cold ground.
The soft and warm body, held in the arms, thin, small, makes people feel distressed. I could smell the fragrance of her hair, see the horror on her face, and the frown of pain on my face.
He glanced over to her. Resist the urge to take her into his arms again.
The moonlight is good at this moment. The beauty makes him yearn to go through his life slowly like this.
And Banniang thought that it turned out that on a cold winter night in Bianjing, because of the extra felt coat embroidered with gold on a red background, it was actually not so cold.
