Chapter 18: Clear Eyes
The racecourse was wet and cold, and it coincided with a heavy rain, Lingyong arranged the best room for Ji Yao, which was also the bedside room leaking without dryness, and the rain feet were like hemp and not broken.
King Qin looked at Ji Yao and frowned: "It's still too late to return to the palace." ”
Ji Yao shook his head: "You live in the king, why can't the concubines live." is the so-called bitter king's suffering, and the concubine is as sweet as food. King Qin looked at the mouth full of sweet words, but smiled heartlessly, and took off his armor by himself: "Sleep." ”
On the second day, King Qin got up in the morning and went back after practicing his sword, and Ji Yao was still sleeping in bed.
He didn't care about them, picked up the wet towel for washing in the morning, clicked it, and threw it on Ji Yao's half-exposed forehead.
In the late autumn and early winter of Qindi, the cold wind kills, and the boiling water is cold when it is placed on the table, not to mention the handkerchief that has cooled for most of the hour.
Ji Yao was smashed by the cold wet cloth, her closed eyes suddenly opened, and her pupils focused on one place vigilantly, covering the quilt tightly. I saw that King Qin was impatient and put his armor still on the Hu bed: "It's time to get up." ”
Ji Yao was still on guard, but his eyes were gradually clear, and King Qin's face was full of boredom, even ...... Abhor. From the first time they met, he intended to get rid of him, and Ji Yao thought that if she was obedient enough, she would get rid of King Qin's vigilance. Unexpectedly, he hated himself so much.
This sudden fright made Ji Yao tremble again.
Seeing that Ji Xiao was not moving, King Qin wanted to reprimand again, but Lingyong's voice came out of the door: "King, breakfast has been prepared." ”
Ji Yao saw King Qin look at it again, although there was no joy or anger in her eyes, in the end it made her heart palpitate, and after trying to calm herself, she shook her head: "The king doesn't have to wait, after the concubine is freshened up, go over by yourself." ”
King Qin not only practiced the sword for a while, but also personally read the soldiers for a while, and used breakfast with the soldiers, thinking that she should be given enough time to grow her body, so he ordered Lingyong to let the kitchen cook some corn porridge again.
Ji Yao said this, of course King Qin would not wait, and went straight out with his hands behind his back.
Ji Yao didn't dare to say that he didn't want King Qin and others, but he didn't dare to rub it anymore, his son and rhinoceros were not there, Ji Yao simply pulled a single bun for himself, inserted a golden hairpin, and hurriedly went out.
"The queen and the queen will go with the women."
As soon as Ji Yao went out, he saw a peasant woman in linen beside her, with a very honest smile.
Ji Yao asked suspiciously: "Auntie, also live in the horse farm?" ”
"The folk woman is not an aunt, the folk woman is rude, her name is Qin Niang. My man works in the horse farm.
The queen mother, the king explained, as soon as you come out, I will take you to dinner. Qin Niang said with a smile.
I really didn't wait, Ji Yao felt a little lost in her heart, so after seeing the long-lost rice porridge, she ate a pot hard. It's no wonder that Ji Yao has a big appetite, but after entering the Qin Dynasty, he followed the customs of the locals, and what Ji Yao ate every day was hard and erected hu cakes and mare's milk and goat's milk, which smelled very fishy.
To exaggerate, Ji Yao was about to cry with excitement the moment he saw the rice porridge.
"It is worthy of being a national horse farm, and the food treatment is good." Ji Yao was full, touched her bulging little belly, and nodded admiringly.
Seeing Ji Yao's dissolute and uninhibited appearance, Qin Niang smiled even more silly, and soon lost the restraint of seeing Ji Yao for the first time: "The king said that after the queen finished eating, he will take you to the back mountain to find him." ”
Ji Yao really ate too much, and kept kneeling and sitting, the first time he didn't exert himself, and he stumbled.
"The Queen!"
Qin Niang was so frightened that she hurriedly bent down and helped Ji Yao up, "Are you hurt?" ”
Ji Yao held his back and waved his hand, and then burped: "It's not in the way." ”
…………
On the back mountain, Ji Yao leaned on a wrist-sized branch and followed Qin Niang slowly, admiring the beautiful mountains and rivers of Qin.
Under the whole world, it is not the king's land. If it's modern, it's all her family's mine!
It rained heavily last night, but fortunately it started to clear again in the morning.
The sun is rising, Ji Yao picked up the golden apricot leaves that fell on the road, held his forehead with his hand, and turned against the rising sun, his cheeks were white, and against the background of the red sun and golden leaves, he was shining with crimson, and his slender eyelashes added two more crow wings to the crimson. The whole person stood under the rising sun, as if his whole body was surrounded by golden light.
I only heard Ji Yao ask casually: "Qin Niang, you said that the man is working in the horse farm, so what kind of work is he doing?" ”
Qin Niang was walking forward with her waist crossed, and when she heard the question, she hurriedly stopped, looked back and answered Ji Yao, only to see the picture in front of her, like a silk painting, so good-looking that people couldn't walk.
Qin Niang's voice also softened: "Everyone calls my man Xiao Cai, who is responsible for feeding the horses." ”
"Feed the horses?" Ji Yao was curious, "Is this work hard?" How many people in the racecourse do this work? ”
Qin Niang replied: "It's hard work. There are about 20 of them who feed the horses with my men. ”
"So much?" Ji Yao sighed, "How many horses are there in the racecourse?" ”
"This ......" Qin Niang recalled carefully, and was about to speak.
Seeing King Qin appear behind Ji Yao, he said coldly with a dark face: "The queen is really curious? ”
Ji Yao secretly gritted his teeth, forced himself to laugh, and then turned around happily, pulled King Qin's arm and said, "This is natural, this is the first time for a concubine to come to this kind of place." ”
King Qin brushed away Ji Yao's wrist: "First time?" The lonely man wanted to see how the queen brought those fruit trees back to life. ”
