Chapter 485: Gambling Contract
Back in the palace of the King of Chu, as expected, Nalan Ye was really not there.
The joy on her face couldn't be suppressed, and even Dai Yue could see that Luo Qingluan had a happy event: "Miss, are you happy to be smiling like this?" β
"Of course, there is." Luo Qingluan smiled, but she didn't even say Dai Yue, "By the way, Dai Yue, you go and let the kitchen prepare more dishes, and I want to celebrate with the prince tonight." β
Dai Yue nodded, but her eyebrows and eyes were crooked with a smile, and she leaned over and looked at her with a smile: "It's rare for Miss to celebrate with the prince, shouldn't it be...... Miss, are you happy? β
"No, don't guess." Luo Qingluan pretended to be angry, this little girl, guessing something, she pushed Daiyue out: "Go quickly, you keep an eye on me personally, you must let them cook one more dish, remember not to forget the prince's favorite ......"
"Yes, safflower ginseng chicken soup, the slave remembers it very clearly." Dai Yue smiled and walked away.
It was noon, and Nalan Ye had not returned. If it was usual, Luo Qingluan wouldn't care too much, anyway, Nalan Ye had been going out early and returning late recently, and she was very busy, but today, she had a feeling of looking forward to it, and she couldn't wait to go to him directly.
"This Nalan night, don't come back yet!"
There are good things hidden in my heart, but I can't help but want to share them with him, but Luo Qingluan can only hold it in my heart. A few people who left the Lin Wangfu knew that she had already instructed Xu Lian not to leak it out. This is the top-secret weapon she gave to Nalan Ye, hoping that he will play the best role on the battlefield.
In the afternoon, Luo Qingluan was idle, and Yuan Xing, who was sent to inquire about the news, came back. Nalan Ye was really still busy in the military department, and asked him to come back with a message, saying that he might have to come back later today, let Luo Qingluan eat first, don't be hungry.
"Princess, the prince is so busy that he remembers to tell you to eat, and he really cares about you." Yuan Xing said with a smile.
"I don't know if I'll come back sooner, really." Luo Qingluan was very disappointed, but he couldn't help it, so he waved his hand to let Yuan Xing go down.
Hiding the sword under the pillow in the bedroom, Luo Qingluan carefully closed the door, still excited. I'm afraid that if Nalan Ye doesn't know, she will be so nervous. As soon as she thought of Nalan Ye's appearance when she saw this sword, she couldn't help but feel proud, he must be very satisfied, right?
In order to pass the afternoon, Luo Qingluan simply went to the kitchen in person.
The next person who was preparing the stewed soup suddenly became nervous when he saw that Luo Qingluan had come. Luo Qingluan looked around, the table was full of all kinds of fresh vegetables, as well as fruits that had just arrived in the morning, fish, shrimp and crabs, and there were more than a dozen chickens in the chicken coop outside the kitchen.
"Princess, I can't ......"
The subordinate who wanted to stop it was brushed away by Luo Qingluan: "It's okay, I haven't done it for a long time, you guys help me, and I'll cook a few dishes for Nalan Ye myself." β
Since the princess has such a leisurely mood, she doesn't dislike the dirty and messy kitchen, and the subordinates have nothing to say. All kinds of vegetables are quickly washed and cut, there are all kinds of meat slices and shredded meat, osmanthus cakes and crystal dumplings are steaming in the steamer, the aroma is rolling in the pot on the stove, and the smell of chicken soup is fragrant through the air.
Busy until the afternoon, Luo Qingluan finally prepared five dishes, two soups, and two cold dishes for dinner, calculated the time and let the next person bring it to the flower hall, and waited for Nalan to come back at night.
An hour has passed, and the dishes are cold, but Nalan has not come back yet, and Dai Yue can't bear it: "Miss, it seems that the prince has been delayed again today." Why don't I go and heat the food, and you can eat some first? β
The taste of others is the most uncomfortable, but Luo Qingluan doesn't want to eat it by himself. She prepared so many things just to share them with Nalan Ye, and then give him a big surprise after she was full of food and drink. If she eats first, then when Nalan comes back at night, she will not only have leftovers, but also eat alone, wouldn't it be a disappointing to her hard work in preparing for the afternoon?
"It's okay, I should be back soon." Luo Qingluan asked Daiyue to go to hot the food, and sent someone to wait in front, if the prince came back, tell her quickly.
Maybe the more I thought about something, the more it wouldn't come true, and I waited until it was dark, and Nalan Ye hadn't come back yet.
"This Nalan night, what's going on, I'm too busy to be at home?" Luo Qingluan's joy turned into disappointment, and finally said, "Forget it, don't wait, Daiyue, the two of us eat." β
The meal was reheated, but Dai Yue was embarrassed to enjoy the food made by Luo Qingluan, and she couldn't bear Luo Qingluan's insistence, she only served a bowl of soup and drank it, and waited for Luo Qingluan to eat it quickly: "Miss has waited so long, you want to eat more, the prince may eat outside and come back, didn't he let you eat first a long time ago?" β
The night was dark, Luo Qingluan looked out the window, eating deliciously.
I knew that I wouldn't cook, I wasted so much of her mind, Nalan Ye, this bastard, is usually busy, and I won't come back so late today, let's see if she will surprise him.
After a hurried meal, Luo Qingluan asked Dai Yue to put away the rest of the things and went into the bedroom by herself.
Feeling out the long sword under the pillow, Luo Qingluan took it and looked at it carefully for a while, and suddenly his heart softened again.
Nalan is so busy at night, isn't it for the purpose of going on the expedition? If he is not ready, he is only afraid that there will be big problems when he goes to the battlefield, and he naturally misses her, but things must be prioritized, and she is safe and sound at home, so he can rest assured to deal with other things. Everything he did was for her, and when this short parting was over, she secretly went to battle with him, and that was the time to work together.
couldn't help but feel a little distressed when Nalan got up at night, Luo Qingluan thought of the time when the two first met, and fell asleep unconsciously.
I don't know what, Luo Qingluan had a feeling, as if someone was covering herself with a quilt, she suddenly opened her eyes, and saw Nalan Ye's familiar face in front of her, full of distress.
"Qingluan, you're not afraid of catching a cold when you sleep like this, why don't you go to bed?" Nalan Ye sat at the head of her bed while folding the quilt for her.
"When did you come back?" Luo Qingluan looked at him, lifted the quilt and sat up again.
Before Nalan Ye could answer, Luo Qingluan suddenly discovered somethingβwhat about the long sword she had been holding? How is it gone!
"Where's my sword, why is it gone? Nalan night, do you see it, it's the ...... I've been holding in my hand"
Seeing her so nervous, Nalan Ye knew the importance and intention of this sword, and couldn't help but complain to her: "What else do you say, how can anyone sleep with a sword." It's not a battlefield, it's so safe in the palace, do you need to sleep with a sword? Don't say it coldly, it's hard. β
As soon as he heard this, he knew that Nalan Ye had put it away, and Luo Qingluan hurriedly said, "Don't say so much, what about the sword?" Where did you put it? She was afraid that Nalan Ye would not like the sword when she looked at it, so she threw it to her subordinates.
With a move in his eyes, Nalan Ye looked at the dresser: "Look at your panic, isn't it just a sword?" There's it. β
Looking over, Luo Qingluan found that her sword was on the dresser, so she was relieved: "You go and bring the sword to me." β
Receiving the long sword handed over by Nalan Ye, Luo Qingluan didn't notice him at all, just like an ordinary long sword, his face didn't even change, and he couldn't help but think of teasing him.
"You don't know, I went to Nangong Yu today to get this sword back." Luo Qingluan deliberately stared at Nalan Ye's waist as he spoke: "He said that this sword is very good, what about blowing hair and breaking hair, Nalan Ye, where is your sword, come and compare it with mine." β
I was still dozing just now, but now when I saw him coming back, Nalan Ye couldn't help but feel a little pity, and touched her soft and smooth green silk: "In the middle of the night, what kind of sword do you play, if you are sleepy, rest early......"
"Don't!"
After waiting for a day, I just wanted to wait until Nalan came back at night and gave him this surprise with my own hands. Ke Luo Qingluan's plan fell through, she didn't expect Nalan to come back so late, so she was bored and accidentally fell asleep. But fortunately, he didn't seem to have discovered the special features of this sword yet, and wouldn't it be fun if he didn't take the opportunity to play tricks on him?
Luo Qingluan held the long sword and stared at him, deliberately smiling and provocatively: "Nalan Ye, you shouldn't dare, right?" Nangong Yu said, this sword is a divine sword, blowing hair and breaking hair, so I took it back, just to give you a comparison. Hurry up, where's your sword, take it out and compare it with mine. β
Crying and laughing, Nalan Ye saw that she was in such good spirits, and she was getting more and more energetic, so she could only say: "What if you lose?" Don't cry. "The long sword he carries with him has been used for several years, and he usually cherishes it and maintains it very well, Luo Qingluan just took it back from the sword forged by Nangong Yu casually, how could it be compared to him?
"Who says I have to lose?"
Seeing her determined look, Nalan Ye explained: "If you really compare with me, you will definitely lose." β
"Why?" Luo Qingluan couldn't help frowning. Where did he get his absolute confidence?
Just as he was about to reach out and take the long sword in Luo Qingluan's hand to explain, Nalan Ye's hand stretched out, but Luo Qingluan immediately retracted, looking vigilant: "What are you doing?" β
"Didn't I explain it to you?" Seeing that she was so precious and nervous, as if she was afraid that she would do something by herself, Nalan Ye smiled helplessly, "Okay, I'll tell you about it as a husband." The result of comparing swords, on the one hand, does depend on whether the sword is good or not, but it is not only about the sword itself, but also on the person who uses the sword. β
The hand went around, Nalan Ye hugged Luo Qingluan's slender waist, and pecked her face: "Just like you, no matter how good the sword in your hand is, compared to your husband, it will definitely lose." The reason is very simple, you don't know martial arts, you don't have strength. β
"To put it simply, it's like a child with a sword in his hand, but do you think he can beat an adult with a wooden knife? That's it, but you can't always say that a wood knife is better than a sword, right? What's more important is to see who is using this weapon and how to use it, understand? β
Although he knew that what Nalan Ye said was right, Luo Qingluan was still unwilling.
I still wanted to surprise him, but I didn't expect him to be sure that he would lose, so even if he finally knew that it was a sword, wouldn't the surprise be much smaller?
With a roll of his eyes, Luo Qingluan said: "Then I don't care, since you say so, then compare like this, you give me your sword, I will use my sword to cut you this, see which sword is intact in the end, who wins, how?" "That's it
couldn't help laughing, Nalan nodded her little nose at night: "You girl, you have to bet on your husband tonight, right?" β
"Why, don't you dare to come?" Luo Qingluan wrinkled his nose at her.
"Okay, is my husband afraid of you?"
Nalan Ye's tone changed, his hand had already hooked Luo Qingluan's small chin, and his pupils darkened: "Then compare with each other, but if your husband wins, you have to agree to a condition for your husband, how about it?" β
Luo Qingluan couldn't see what he wanted to do, but it was nothing to lose for her, but if she won...... Wouldn't it be possible to concoct the same method and let him agree to a condition? She naturally wanted to go to the battlefield with him, wouldn't it be best if she could take this opportunity to get him to agree?
Thinking of this, Luo Qingluan greeted him without timidity: "Okay, but if you lose, you also have to promise me a condition, unconditionally, how about it?" β
