Chapter 8: The Race for the Deer (3)
I looked at Liluo for help, I really hoped that he could stand up and say something clear at this moment, but at this time, Liluo said: "Miss Ming'er, help your master go back!" With that, he put down this sentence and left without looking back.
Looking at the tall figure that was gradually disappearing, and looking back at Shang Ming'er's frightened eyes, my mood fell to the bottom in an instant, this, what the hell is going on!
Ming'er helped me back to the camp, and she was silent all the way, and I wanted to say something to her several times, but I didn't know where to start.
I couldn't sleep that night, and Ming'er didn't seem to sleep well.
The next morning, Ming'er waited for me to freshen up, looking at the black marks under her eyes, I felt uncomfortable, I wanted to say something but there was no way to comfort her, so I had to look at her secretly sad.
Since then, Lilo has never been to my camp again, but I have heard that I have gone on an errand by order. And Ming'er's face is becoming less and less smiling, I can often see her looking into the distance, asking her but not saying, but my mind has also changed a little from before, what is the difference, I can't say, just feel.
Three days later, Bao Yuan ordered Xie Xingben to send me and Ming'er back to Fengzhou to meet Ji'er, but I couldn't help him, so I had to obey.
The carriage moved slowly on the mountain path, and the sound of the horse bell echoed in the mountains. My mood at this moment is very different from when I came, so much has happened in just a few days...... Zhang Jizhao, Zhao Kuangyin, Liluo, Baoyuan, and the soulless Ming'er in front of him.
"Alas" sighed from my throat, and I moved and continued to lean against the window of the car and think about my thoughts.
"Ming'er, how long will it take to get to Fengzhou City?"
"I think it's going to be sometime." Ming'er replied lazily, but she didn't raise her eyes to look at me, but only took care of a Yingluo in her hand.
Seeing her listlessness, I suddenly lost the interest in speaking, moved my body, and sighed softly in my heart.
The mountain peaks outside the car window are stacked with obstacles, and the green branches and green leaves in front of you seem to be wrapped in a cloud of mist. I tightened the cloak on my body, and when I looked back at Ming'er, she still looked down at what she was holding, as if she didn't care about anything other than the jewel.
This is a piece of countless leaf-like white jade layered weaving into the Yingluo, although it has not yet been completed, it can be seen that a lot of thought has been spent, the handwork is complex and exquisite, the azure silk thread weaves several kinds of auspicious knots coiled between the warm jade pieces, at first glance it looks casual and free, but there is a kind of indifferent appearance...... I couldn't help but reach out and touch it, and sighed: "Ming'er's craftsmanship is really getting better and better." ”
Ming'er was silent when she heard this, and I didn't care, and said: "It's just that this azure color is not suitable for women, if it is replaced with light purple or ......."
"I didn't make it up to me." Ming'er suddenly said in a muffled voice.
"Oh, let's rest now. Carefully keep your head down in the car for a long time and get dizzy. Hearing her say this, I thought it was for me to prepare, and I was moved and concerned.
Ming'er raised her head and looked at me deeply, the corners of her lips were pursed, and Liang Jiufang said softly: "If my sister likes it, I'll make it up for you when I return to the palace." ”
Oh? Oh! It turns out that this Yingluo is not for me. There was some loss in his heart, and he was embarrassed and sour, and he said after a while: "Don't worry." ”
Ming'er stopped talking, so I had to pretend to sleep, and I went all the way to Fengzhou silently with her.
The city of Fengzhou seems to be a little deserted due to the recent war, and there are not many pedestrians in the market. Outside the best inn, Jill was already waiting for it, and when he saw our carriage, he hurriedly greeted us, and even warmly hugged me and Ming'er to ask long and short questions. Ming'er was still sullen, and I was lazily talking to Jill without a match.
During the chat, Fang knew that Ji'er's procurement of goods in Fengzhou was unfavorable, and it seemed that the court had minted coins on a large scale in recent years, and the weight of the coins was getting lighter and lighter.
Because of this, the border people seem to be reluctant to sell their mountain goods and wild goods recently, and are more willing to barter...... Speaking of this, Jill shook his head and sighed lightly: "Sister, the border war has been going on for many years, and the lives of the people here have become more and more poor, and they are no longer prosperous and rich in the past, I really don't know when they will be able to live a peaceful life." ”
I was stunned when I heard the words, my eyes were very sour, and I was about to speak, but I heard Ming'er say on the side: "Such a war broke out suddenly, and Anzhi was not caused by the greed of people in this world, and when I was used to living a peaceful life, I became restless." ”
There was a lot of indignation in Ming'er's tone, but I heard it in my ears and felt that she meant something else. When I looked up at her, I saw that she didn't look at me and Jill with a cold face, and Jill on the side was already a little worried.
Suddenly, she was angry, and sneered: "Miss Ming has really become more and more knowledgeable in recent years, how much does it mean to say this?!" ”
