Chapter 172: The Comer
Xiao Huaijin sat up straight, took the medicine bowl on the side of the desk and tasted it himself before feeding it to Wanxiang: "It's nothing, it means that you are tired of new injuries and old diseases, plus you have to take care of them well."
Maybe it's not as good as it used to be for the time being, and it'll be fine. ”
"When will that be good?"
"I didn't say it, but now that we are in the Imperial City, the conditions are not as fierce as those of Eagle's Beak Peak. Come to think of it, it's not slow. ”
"Hmm." This will be Wanxiang to see that Xiao Huaijin didn't even change out of his official uniform and came to see him directly, even if he had another question in his heart, he had to put it down first. asked Xiao Huaijin with concern: "On the first day of the court, no one should be impatient, right?" ”
Xiao Huaijin put down the jade porcelain bowl, pulled the incense and told him: "You don't have to ask anything, you don't need to know anything, just follow me, never leave." ”
"Then will you follow me when you go to court?"
Xiao Huaijin thought for a while: "It's okay." ”
"What are you going to do? Monkey business. ”
"The word 'nonsense' came out of the princess's mouth, which is really intriguing." Xiao Huaijin pretended to be surprised and looked at Wanxiang: "You are all over the world to inquire about ......"
Knowing that he was going to repeat what he had just said, she took the chestnut candy and stuffed it into his mouth to gagged hers. Pull up the quilt and take the bowl to drink the medicine by yourself: "The smell of blood wafts all over the street." Even if we go back to the Imperial City, those Wenchen and the Bai clan who are good at fighting bloodless will not give in easily, and they will let you go casually.
looked down and lowered his heart, and there were few sincere ones. I'm afraid it's even more dangerous than before. ”
"It doesn't matter, it's just that you're horrified. I've been scared for days, and you're still acting like you're a nobody. If you're really idle, why don't you have a child and have fun? ”
He seemed to have forgotten that there were still two people standing outside the door, and Wanxiang glanced up at Xiao Huaijin: "Don't worry about this, you are sitting in the position of the regent, and naturally there are people who come to stutter."
or come to pretend to please, or want to install eyeliner, or make wall grass with three knives on both sides, they will more or less send some beautiful flowers into the house.
When the time comes, I will pick and choose some good ones to keep in the backyard, and spread the branches for the prince. ”
"You little mouth, you can't say anything." The arms took the person: "Although your husband is not the emperor, he also knows how to make a promise to gold." If I say that I will not live up to you, I will not live up to you. ”
"Eh, when will Jing Jue come back?"
"Rong Chuan's cautious temperament, there is such a fuss in the imperial city, and he will not come back for a while. The imperial city is in chaos, and it is better to hide outside. ”
"Hmm. It's better not to come back, how many people are as big as me? ”
Knowing that Xiao Huaijin was unwilling to talk to Wanxiang about things outside the courtyard, Wanxiang didn't ask any more. I only know that there are a lot of worship posts in the house, and the door is very lively.
And Xiao Huaijin mostly walked with Wanxiang in the house, and didn't go to the front hall to listen to the noise.
Whenever she walked to the backyard shooting range with Juanxiang, her expression always looked melancholy.
Xiao Huaijin also knew that she was still struggling with the fact that she hadn't pulled the bow, so she clenched the little hand beside her: "A new Hexing Building has opened at the east end of Long Street, it is a teahouse, there are storytellers in it, and Fu Yu has been shouting to go." Take a look at it? ”
"I ...... Or don't. ”
"Aren't you your favorite place to hang out?"
After hesitating for a while, Wanxiang raised her head, looked at Xiao Huaijin and said, "I'm a little scared." ”
As soon as the words came out, I saw the person in front of me looking at Wanxiang and was stunned for a while, and suddenly smiled, holding her hand and telling her: "I'm afraid to follow me, I'm in front of you." ”
Fu Yu, who followed behind him, couldn't help but snicker. thought that he was happy for Wanxiang and Xiao Huaijin, but he said, "Lord Wang! Let's go to the Lion Building for dinner first, and after eating, we went shopping, and when we were tired of shopping, we just went to Hexing Building to drink tea and listen to books.
Brother Liang Cuo went to book a table first, and his sister went to change her clothes and then arrived. ”
Liang Cuo held the hilt of the sword and asked with a puzzled expression: "What are you excited about?" ”
"I ...... If my sister goes, I must go! ”
Xiao Huaijin also made fun: "But this king didn't say that he wanted to take you." ”
"No! Take me! ”
Liang Cuo followed Xiao Huaijin to sing and tease Fuyu, and Wanxiang sat on the side and listened and laughed. In the end, I still responded to Fu Yu's request to go to the Lion Tower to eat first.
What they did was still the seat that when Wanxiang first entered the imperial city, and when you open the window, you can see the bell tower and Xuanyuan Gate not far away.
You can also see the peach blossoms in the rain in the pavilions and blue lakes, the maids who hang out in the drizzle and the maids with umbrellas behind them, the vendors who sell, the painting boats that drill through the bridge holes, and the young people standing on the bridge.
In the end, it was the imperial city, Xiao Huaijin entered the city only a few days ago, and the smell of blood was actually washed away, and now it is a thriving and prosperous scene.
Wanxiang crouched in front of the window with warm wine, looked at the water, and happened to catch a glimpse of a familiar face on the second floor of the boat, standing on the boat with a stomach and wearing plain white clothes in the direction of Haihui Temple.
After careful identification, Juanxiang couldn't smile anymore. Because it was Bai Xiuzi's widow, she should have wanted to go to Haihui Temple with her widow.
Even if she is pregnant, she looks a little bloated, but her eyebrows and eyes still look very delicate and cute. Until now, Wanxiang still remembers the way she ran over in a goose-yellow skirt and shouted 'Brother Xiu'.
Bai Xiuzi's 'little sticky bean bag' also had a sad face and vicissitudes of life, and coincidentally, she also turned around to see Wanxiang, with no hatred or surprise on her face, just looking at each other from afar.
Watching her boat leave, Wanxiang couldn't help but ask Xiao Huaijin: "When you entered the city, did you disturb the General's Mansion?" ”
Xiao Huaijin sat in his seat and glanced out to understand what Wanxiang meant, and replied, "No." ”
"That'...... Bai Xiuzi's matter around the eagle's beak peak, what kind of rhetoric did you give? ”
"There is no rhetoric, he is denouncing the Taishi, not me."
"How can you block it?"
"I never cared about the crowd."
"But in the end......"
Xiao Huaijin poured wine for Wanxiang and said to her: "I took you out to relax, not to feel Bai Xiuzi." ”
Wanxiang looked back and saw Xiao Huaijin smiling, seemingly unconcerned, but she didn't know how to lead the conversation to Bai Xiuzi. Wanxiang picked up the wine glass and took a sip of warm wine herself, and then stopped talking.
But no one expected that the people who had already passed by boat would turn back.
The little guy at the door came in and reported: "Lord, princess." The White Lady of the General's Mansion asked to see her. ”
Xiao Huaijin didn't speak, just looked at Wanxiang. Wanxiang didn't say whether she saw it or not, but only asked: "A woman with a heavy body shouldn't come to seek revenge so blatantly, right?" ”
Knowing what she meant, Xiao Huaijin said, "Since you won't, let's see it." ”
When the little guy heard this, he saluted and turned around and went out to invite someone.
White dress and white shoes, only a plain flower is inserted in the sandalwood-like black hair, and I don't know how many sleepless nights have passed under the black green now.
This is really distressing.
Wanxiang didn't see her at the original banquet, but asked the little maid for two cups of tea to sit next door, and before she could sit down, she asked, "Do you remember me?" ”
"Yes, of course I do." She was helped by the maid on the side to sit down: "The best beauty in the imperial city, Princess Pingnan, the woman who made the general eat tasteless and not get drunk." ”
"Looking for me?"
"The princess is straightforward, and she is the character that my general's like."
"Come alone to meet the enemy, you can be regarded as bold, and General Bai likes it."
The person opposite smiled wryly and shook his head: "What am I?" After you got married, he was so determined to live a life of mediocrity, and he would call your name when he was drunk or dreamed back at midnight, and even the maid who kept vigil knew that your name was 'Wan'er'. ”
This made Wanxiang not know how to answer, and the next words made Wanxiang feel that the person who came was not good.
Then I heard her say, "What enemy is not an enemy?" The saint issued an edict to the world, but it was the Taishi, and my husband was also the Taishi. The hearts of the people of the world are like mirrors. Most of them dare to be angry but dare not speak. ”
"You dare to tell the truth, but if you tell me these truths, are you dead?"
She smiled again, smiling confidently and fearlessly: "There are few people in the top of my Bai family, and there were originally generals, but now there is nothing." If the Holy One let me, an orphan and a widow, come out again, wouldn't it chill people's hearts? ”
