Chapter 58: Reuniting with Him
When we set off again the next day, we had calculated that we would be able to reach Jiangbei in time, but the sudden snowstorm along the way delayed the trip.
Therefore, when we first saw the ruins of Jiangbei buried by snow, it was already night, and it was a full two hours later than originally planned.
And getting closer and closer to Yin Linxi, this should be a happy thing, but I don't know why, my mood became more and more uneasy with the sound of the wheels of the carriage turning, and my head was full of some bad speculations about Yin Linxi.
Momoxin seemed to see my apprehension, and deliberately reached out and pressed the back of my hand, "Don't worry, princess!" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has his own natural appearance, so he must be fine. β
I lifted my eyelids and saw her smile at me, and I nodded.
At this time, the carriage suddenly stopped for some reason.
Immediately afterwards, the coachman poked his head in apologetically, "I'm sorry, Princess." Therefore, the ruins and rocks in front of you are full of rocks, and the carriage is not easy to pass, so from here on, I am afraid that you will have to worry about walking on your own. β
I was stunned for a moment, and then my nervous mood was strangely much lighter, and then I nodded, got out of the carriage with the help of the evening, and walked quickly to Jiangbei City, where there was no sporadic light.
"Princess, this black light is blinding, you pay attention to your step, walk slowly..."
I didn't answer her, I just blindly thought about how Yin Linxi was now, and my steps became faster and faster.
But as I was crossing the long dark street, I inadvertently stumbled over something under my feet, and my body stumbled and almost fell.
Fortunately, Wan'er helped me in time, and called behind him again, "Sister Taoxin." β
At this time, Taoxin behind him hurriedly trotted over with a horse lantern.
But before she could walk up to me, a dead body appeared in front of my eyes by the faint light of her hand...
It looks like she should be an old woman, she hasn't been dead for long, but the death is too miserable, a broken stone actually cut her waist into two pieces, and the blood under the corpse stained a large area of snow.
In this Jiangbei City, where there are no sporadic lights, the bloody scene made my eyes suddenly constrict, and my teeth trembled involuntarily.
At this time, Momoxin, who had already run to my side, hurriedly shouted at me, "Princess, are you okay?" β
I shook my head slightly, but I couldn't take my eyes off the dead body, and I didn't know why I looked at the corner along my line of sight, but this time...
"Ahh Momoxin screamed, and was so frightened that she immediately threw the horse lantern in her hand to the ground.
The sound of the glass cover touching the ground was crisp, echoing in the night sky in Jiangbei City for a long time.
By the time we reacted, the lantern had already been shattered.
Everyone's mood also fell into endless darkness with the light that suddenly disappeared in front of them, and instantly became extremely heavy.
"Princess, I'm sorry." Momoxin whispered, her little face still full of horror.
After a long time, I shook my head, then took Wan'er and Taoxin, and said lightly, "Let's go." β
At this time, there is no lantern, we can only do it in the faint light refracted by the snow, lest a broken stone fall somewhere, after all, the fate of that old woman is obvious to all.
However, in such a panic, I don't know how long I walked, and suddenly a long cry came from my ears, "Is there anyone... Anyone else? β
"It's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" Taoxin was overjoyed and shook my shoulder, "Princess, it's His Royal Highness the Prince, he's fine!" He has come to our rescue. β
As she spoke, she had already hurriedly shouted in the direction where the voice came from, "His Royal Highness the Prince, we are here... Over here! β
Then, I saw a few bright lights in the distance, accompanied by the "click" sound of the horse's hooves, gradually approaching.
By the time the man on horseback had turned over, and before I could see who was coming, one of them recognized me first.
"The crown princess?" The man exclaimed in surprise.
I followed the sound and looked intently, only to see that the person who came turned out to be the one who Yin Linxi had urged in front of the mansion on the day of his departure.
"Thisβ" I pretended to raise my hand, intending to do it.
It was only at this sound that I remembered that I didn't seem to know what his name was.
That person is also smart, seeing that I paused, when he waved his hand at me, he began to introduce himself, "The minister's surname is Qian, and the name is a Geng, but when the court is empty, the princess can call me a little money." β
I looked at him with some astonishment, this Qian Geng looked like he was only in his early twenties, even if he was a hereditary title, he was too young for his age.
However, I was not in the mood to be polite to him now, so I continued with his words, "Xiao Qian Sikong, have you found His Royal Highness the Prince?" Is he okay? β
Qian Geng was stunned for a moment, looking dazed, as if he didn't know what I was talking about.
After a moment, I remembered something, and a smile appeared on my face, but she didn't answer me immediately, but leaned sideways and gave me a way, "If the crown princess is so worried, you might as well come with the ministers first." β
With that, he smiled intriguingly at me again, and then walked forward and led the way.
At this time, in the messy Jiangbei City, Qian Geng took me around left and right, and walked for about half an hour.
My half-light and half-dark eyes suddenly lit up.
"What is this?" I stared blankly at the densely packed yurt in front of me.
Qian Geng shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile, "These are all refugees who lost their homes in the White Plague, it took His Royal Highness the Crown Prince a long time to bring them together, and even I was able to meet you just now because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked me to see if there were any refugees missing." β
"What about others? Where is he? I spoke anxiously.
In fact, after listening to Qian Geng's words, I have already learned that Yin Linxi is fine, but my heart is a little calmer, and I can't wait to see him.
Qian Geng looked at me, smiled very ambiguously and pouted at the bonfire not far away, "I'm afraid His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is worried at this time, the Crown Princess should persuade him more." β
"Sorrow," I muttered.
Before he could look closely, he walked towards the campfire.
After rounding the white tents with the domes of several places, I was greeted by a slender dark figure, whose standing figure was facing away from me, motionless and unmoving, not knowing what he was thinking.
I slowed down and approached him gently, feeling as if something was overflowing with something in my heart, and as this subtle feeling deepened, the tip of my nose ached.
And Yin Linxi seemed to hear the footsteps behind him, and said helplessly as he turned around, "Miss Jinya, I'm really..."
Before I could finish speaking, I swooped into the embrace...
made Yin Linxi be hit by a person in a sudden situation, and then took a step back.
"You..."Yin Linxi was stunned, and when he lowered his head again, his voice suddenly became a little trembling, "Why are you here?" β
I didn't answer him, just buried my head in his chest, greedily sniffed at the familiar smell of his body, and then my eyes were wet, and something slipped down my cheeks and into my mouth, a salty taste.
Yin Linxi noticed something was wrong, and hurriedly pushed me away, and when he saw the tears sliding down my face, his eyes were full of distress.
"Why are you crying?" His deep voice was a little hoarse, and the rough fingertips looked a little piercing as his long, slender fingers ran against my tearful cheeks.
I raised my eyes to meet a pair of eyes that were trying to hide their tiredness, and the beautiful silhouette of a slightly emaciated figure was full of pampering.
In the cold wind of the night in Jiangbei, the gentleness is even a little excessive.
My heartstrings twitched, and I greedily slipped back into his arms.
"What's wrong?" Yin Linxi smiled bitterly, "Why haven't you seen you for more than ten days, and you have become a clingy kitten?" β
Even so, his arms wrapped around me tightly.
"I haven't seen you for more than ten days?" I smothered in his chest and let out an angry voice, "Do you know that when I was in the mansion, I was about to collapse when I heard the news of your disappearance in Jiangbei?" β
After that, I obviously felt Yin Linxi's back stiffen, and for a moment I only heard a stunned voice above my head, "It's all Qian Geng's bastard boy, and this little thing will be rewarded!" β
"This little thing?" I angrily pushed him away, and then I saw the guilt on his face.
I was at a loss for what to do with my original anger, so I had to freeze in place.
"Okay, I'm fine," he reached out and grabbed my waist, "It's just a misunderstanding, even if it's true..."
"Don't talk nonsense!"
Then I reached out, hooked his neck, and then stood on tiptoe to kiss the hot lip, drowning in the kiss what he was about to say.
Unexpectedly, Yin Linxi's pupils suddenly contracted, and then the corners of his lips seemed to hook a smile.
Then I only felt a movement of my lips, and in an instant, the active turned into passivity, causing my already plucked heartstrings to be even more messy.
And so it was...
It was only when it felt like a pot of porridge was boiling in my head that he let go of me, and his slender fingers pressed against my somewhat red and swollen lips, rubbing them gently.
"I'm sorry to worry you." His eyes sparkled on me.
Then he reached out and hugged me back into his arms, and his big hand gently patted my back, as if comforting.
I enjoyed the tenderness with great peace of mind, and raised my hand to hug him.
But just as we are immersed in the warm atmosphere of this reunion, behind us...
Suddenly there was a "bang".
Then a clear female voice fell, "You guys! β
I got out of Yin Linxi's arms, and a girl dressed as a herdsman stood behind us, looking at me and Yin Linxi with a hurt face.
The atmosphere became a little awkward for a moment.
"Ah, Miss Jinya," Yin Linxi didn't care, but instead took my hand and walked over to this Jinya girl with a smile, and introduced, "This is my crown princess." β
Miss Jin Ya was stunned for a moment and muttered, "Crown Princess? β
As the words stopped, she seemed to understand what was coming, tears quickly overflowed in her eyes, and then she ran away without looking back.
"Who is she?"
After she was gone, I took a look at Yin Linxi.
The bastard didn't say a word, took my hand and walked to a tent.
"You haven't answered my question yet, who is she?"
"Don't you know by looking at it?"
"Huh?" This bastard thing!
"Wait, where are you going to take me?" I slammed the brakes behind Yin Linxi.
He took advantage of the situation, simply hugged me horizontally, and whispered in my ear, "I like you..."
My face turned red, and the bastard continued, "Jealous for me! β
"Huh?"
I was angry, and I struggled with my hands and feet, but I couldn't break free.
In the end, he had to carry me back to the tent.
