Chapter Seventy-One: Chickens and Ducks
Although Chen Nian has known him for just two days, he feels like an old friend, and he is not shy when he hears his praise, but is very happy, and deliberately turns around to show him, and asks with a smile: "Is it really good-looking?" ”
Lu Xiao nodded, and then complained about the food in front of him: "You Han people are really strange in their habits, eat these soups and water all day long, no wonder they don't have much strength." ”
Chen Nian saw that the staple dishes on his table were actually very rich, but they didn't eat meat in the morning like in the north, so he smiled and said: "We people here eat breakfast like this, where can we eat greasy when we get up?" ”
She said that she sat down opposite Lu Xiao, and naturally took a vegetable bag on the table and nibbled on it. She only used some snacks in Feng Junyang's car yesterday, and she was hungry at this moment, although it was an ordinary bun in her hand, she felt very delicious when she ate it in her mouth.
Seeing that she was still like this, Lu Xiao didn't care about it anymore, so he frowned a little in disgust, and reluctantly took a bun and nibbled it.
Chen Nian finished eating a bun, and then asked him: "I haven't asked you yet, where are you from?" ”
Lu Xiao glanced at her and asked, "Didn't you see it all?" And why? ”
Chen Nian smiled and said, "I see that you look like a native of the Northland, but a member of the Xian clan?" ”
Lu Xiao didn't hide his origin from her, nodded and said: "You read it right, I am from the Xian clan, but I can only tell you this, and you don't have to ask anything else." ”
Chen Nianqi said: "Can't even ask why my father-in-law asked you to protect me?" ”
Lu Xiao shook his head and said, "I can't." ”
Chen Nian pondered for a moment and asked again, "Then can you tell me where my father-in-law is now?" ”
Lu Xiao still shook his head, "No." ”
Chen Nian didn't feel disappointed, but she refused to give up like this, although she changed the topic after smiling, but after a while, she began to inquire about Mu Zhanyue's whereabouts again, who knew that Lu Xiao was extremely vigilant in this matter, and once she turned the topic back, she immediately shut up and refused to say anything more.
Although Chen Nian was unwilling, he had to give up for the time being, and said: "Although you should protect me from my stepfather, but now I don't need your protection here, if you have something to do, just do it yourself, and I will explain it to him when I see my stepfather in the future." ”
Lu Xiao said: "I don't have anything to do, just to protect you." ”
Chen Nian was most helpless for this kind of person who only admits death, so he had to say: "I have martial arts myself, and I am in this mansion, where can I use your protection." ”
Lu Xiao said mercilessly: "Your martial arts are too weak to protect yourself at all." I will protect you by your side during the day, and at night you will sleep with the prince of the world, and it will be enough to have the protection of that old man. ”
Chen Nian was stunned for a moment, and suddenly made a big red face, stood up suddenly, and shouted angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about!" You just slept with that prince! ”
Lu Xiao was baffled by her sudden annoyance. The Xian clan is open, and as long as lovers are happy with each other, they can stay together even if they are not married, so he doesn't think there is anything wrong with Feng Junyang taking Chen Nian back to his bedroom last night, and he is telling the truth at this moment, but somehow this woman suddenly turned her face.
He looked at Chen Nian with some confusion and asked, "What's wrong with you?" Why do you have a tantrum? You slept in a daze last night? It's true that you slept with that prince, not me. ”
Chen Nian was so angry with his words that he almost turned his back on him, but he still said it with a serious face, not like he was making fun of it at all. Chen Nian thought that he had killed the hostage in his hand with a single sword, such a stunned Xian clansman, he really couldn't be angry with him. She took a few deep breaths, then controlled her temper, ignored Lu Xiao anymore, turned around and walked out.
Although Lu Xiao couldn't understand her temper, he also followed her when he was so angry. The two of them walked towards Feng Junyang's courtyard one after another, and when they were about to reach the gate of the courtyard, they saw a young man followed by several attendants coming from another road, looking at the direction to Feng Junyang's courtyard.
Chen Nian was stunned, and Lu Xiao behind him couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?" ”
Before Chen Nian could answer, the man on the other side looked at him when he heard the sound, his eyes first slid over Chen Nian's face, and then fell back to Chen Nian after turning around on Lu Xiao, smiling at her and bowing politely. Chen Nian nodded to him as well, got out of the way, and motioned for him to go first.
The man smiled again and led the people into Feng Junyang's courtyard.
Chen Nian was guessing the identity of this person, when he heard Lu Xiao ask on the side, "Who is this person?" ”
Chen Nian shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”
Lu Xiaoqi said: "You don't know? Why are you smiling at you if you don't know him? Didn't you nod to him too? ”
Chen Nian was speechless for a while, and he didn't know how to explain these people to the people around him, so he thought for a moment and had to reply: "We Han people are like this." ”
When Lu Xiao heard this, he showed a very disdainful expression. Chen Nian also looked at him unpleasantly at the moment, and said angrily when he saw him like this: "Hey? What are you following me for? I said I don't need your protection, why do you still follow me! ”
Lu Xiao thought about it, and really turned around and left.
Chen Nian was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but stop him behind and asked, "Hey! Where are you going? ”
Lu Xiao stopped, turned around and looked at her strangely, "Go back to your residence, didn't you tell me to go back?" ”
Chen Nian suddenly couldn't cry or laugh, but he heard Lu Xiao say: "There is that old man in this courtyard, you don't need me to follow you for protection." I'll go back to my lodgings, and if you have something to do, come and look for me." ”
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Chen Nian breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly said that although he was a good person, his strength was really good. While thinking about it, she walked into the courtyard with brisk steps, and saw Shunping standing with his hands hanging down from the porch of the main house, and Feng Junyang's voice was faintly heard in the house, as if he was talking to someone. Chen Nian walked around the verandah, beckoned to Shunping quietly, called him to his side and asked in a low voice, "Who is the person who came?" ”
Shunping replied in a low voice: "It is an old friend of the prince, the twelve sons of the He family." ”
Chen Nian heard Feng Junyang mention this person. This person's name is He Ze, He Zhen's nephew, and he can be regarded as a leading figure in the younger generation. This time, He Zhen sent him to command 30,000 troops east into Qingzhou to deter Yang Cheng, but he didn't want him to go with the Chinese army, but came with the vanguard cavalry.
Feng Junyang was still talking to Na He Ze in the house, and Chen Nian thought that it was inconvenient for him to go in at this time, so he pointed to the ear room next to Shun Ping, and said in a low voice: "I'll go over there and wait for a while." ”
Shun Ping nodded hurriedly, and was about to send her over, but Chen Nian waved his hand to stop him, and he entered the side of the room lightly.
In the main room, He Ze lazily leaned on the Taishi chair and said to Feng Junyang: "I didn't expect you to fall to the point of using the Flying Dragon Order. Although 'the flying dragon roars, the danger of life and death' is just the secret language of your Yunxi royal family, don't say Yunxi, even there are many people who know this code word elsewhere, and you are not afraid of being exploited by someone with a heart! It's also a shame that Shunping and they found you first, otherwise you and I really wouldn't have seen this side. ”
