Chapter 80: The Blue-Coated Cuckoo
Chapter 80: The Blue Coat
In the wide courtyard, dozens of people stood densely, and there was nothing else to see under the cover of the night, but the black pressure was very deterrent.
Standing on the top steps is the blue coat. At this time, he was a solid blue coat, and the royal blue clothes were swaying in the autumn wind, with an inexplicable sassy and heroic spirit.
Beside him stood a very slender woman, with thin shoulders, dark blue clothes, her hair neatly pulled up, no ornamentation but just as beautiful and sharp.
"You will follow me to Beicheng in the next half month," the voice of the blue cloth did not appear weak in the autumn wind, and it should have been mixed with internal force, and the people below were waiting to hear his next words.
"Don't drop the chain for me one by one when you encounter all kinds of things during the period, and Long Wei doesn't raise waste under him." The blue coat is still very strict, and no matter how strict it is in the matter of life and death, it is not too strict.
The dragon guard, the exclusive protector of every emperor, but it is different from the ordinary guards. This group of people is usually scattered.
When Qing Ruifan first knew about Long Wei, he gave Qing Haoxuan a suggestion, and all Long Wei had all kinds of appearance duties after that. Except for the team directly under the blue coat and the blue coat, who were specially selected to serve Qing Ruifan, everyone else had their own identities. But it can't be without purpose.
For example, Qianjuan, she was an ordinary tea shop supplier in Lin'an City before entering the palace, and many times a year she was in the mountains to investigate all the information about tea, although she didn't have much contact with people, but the tea handed over every month can also let her know some information, good tea is what the nobles and ministers can afford, through this, she also indirectly understands some official affairs, and all of this is for the service of Qing Ruifan.
"Listen to me in all actions, and if I don't react in time, I'll listen to the cuckoo. You know that, too. The blue clothes still had a straight face, and their voices were not warm. Speaking of this, he had already told Qing Ruifan not to let the cuckoo follow him to take risks, after all, there is nothing on the battlefield, in case there is something bad, how can he explain to himself? But Qing Ruifan still agreed.
"If you really like each other, this separation is torture, not for each other." Qing Ruifan's expression was dark at the time, but he just said this sentence lightly and whispered, and he sent back all the words that Lan Yi wanted to say.
Qing Ruifan at that time, I am afraid that he remembered Murong Zhi. Blue Yi looked at the bewitching and dazzling face under the torch, and suddenly remembered the joints in it.
Maybe Qing Ruifan is not as blank as he imagined. He is already smart, and his comprehension in love affairs is really amazing.
After a few simple words, the juan shouted back to everyone, and then smiled shyly at the blue clothes, the beautiful hand brushed the broken hair that fell on the ear, the moonlight was still bright, the Mid-Autumn Festival has passed, this is already another month, how can the moon at the time of the new moon be so beautiful in words?
Tzu Ann Church.
"The Queen Mother." Qing Ruifan is also really restless today, he read a bunch of twists and turns in front of the case one by one, the little chamberlain who was not in the blue coat did not make him accustomed to anything, and he really didn't feel sleepy, and he remembered that he hadn't visited the queen mother for a long time, so he came here. originally thought that the Queen Mother had gone to bed peacefully, but when she saw the full lights, she paused and walked in.
"The emperor is here. Have a seat. The Queen Mother was hunched over and fiddling with the charcoal basin in front of her. The Queen Mother's body has become weaker and weaker in recent years, and the whole body is always uncomfortable in the cold weather, Duanxia also understands this, and called someone to bring the best black gold charcoal over early, which makes Ci'an Hall Although there is no popularity, there is heating anyway.
"Does the queen mother feel okay these two days? Winter is getting progressive, and it has been so long before Erchen has time to greet the queen mother. It's the son's, it's not. Qing Ruifan walked in and sat down with apologies. To be honest, he was really derelict in his duties.
"What's this?" The Queen Mother's shallow tone is also careless, she has looked down on everything for so many years, and she doesn't have too much hope, it should be the age of contentment, "The emperor is busy with state affairs, and the mourning family also understands." ”
"It's just, I heard that the queen is not in good health these days?" The Queen Mother seemed to be just talking about homely things, a thin wire was turning in the red carbon fire, and a piece of charcoal that had burned almost turned into ashes in an instant under the slight force of the Queen Mother, and the really good charcoal was nothing more than that.
"The queen mother is worried, Ah Zhi is a southerner after all, and it is inevitable that she will not be accustomed to the water and soil when she just arrives in the north, so it is good to rest more." The corners of Qing Ruifan's eyes moved, and he lied without changing his face, looking at the Queen Mother still focusing on the charcoal fire, and he had other plans in his heart.
"She is a woman, and she still has to take good care of her body, after all, she still has to spread out for the royal family." The Queen Mother's voice was gentle and slow, and all the words that didn't fall into Qing Ruifan's ears and at the same time, also into his heart. It's a wonderful thing to think about it for him.
"Yes, my son." The corners of Qing Ruifan's mouth were unnaturally curled, and the joy in the corners of his eyes could not be suppressed.
"Look at the charcoal fire in this furnace," the Queen Mother put the iron chisel aside, took the brocade handkerchief in Duanxia's hand and wiped her hands, and sat with Qing Ruifan, her eyes still looking at the orange-red fire, and even only a ball of fire, which could not be called firelight.
"A lot of things are like this pot of charcoal, and they will burn up as they are, but without proper ventilation, no matter how warm it is, it will only be for a moment." The Queen Mother has always believed that the point will end, and it is proof that she has lived with this law for so many years. She watched Qing Ruifan grow all the way to the present, and she knew what level he was.
"Erchen understands." Qing Ruifan still underestimated the Queen Mother. Although his mother said that she had not appeared much in the Ci'an Hall and had not spoken much, she knew the current situation in the entire palace the same way, and gave orders the same.
"Emperor, if she really isn't your lover, so be it. No matter how graceful the people outside are, they still can't join hands with you. The Queen Mother's words are still somewhat clear. According to her understanding, it is still a little difficult for Qing Ruifan to withdraw by himself. Even if Wang Jingchen's words were exaggerated, she could still hear them.
"The queen mother is too worried." Qing Ruifan is still unhappy when he mentions this, he is the kind of child who dies without repentance when he identifies a person, whether it is Yang Li'er or Murong Zhi, it has not changed for so many years. "There's always a chance to turn things around." The emperor's self-confidence is often like this.
Northland.
When the blue coat arrived in the north, it was just when another offensive and defensive battle began. The Tatars' fighting ability was more than a little better than that of the soldiers defending the city, but even so, for nearly an hour of blue-clothed onlookers, the Tatars did not get any advantage, but were suppressed by the dense trebuchets, and some could not turn over.
When the blue clothes watched the Tatars retreat, they led people to rush into the enemy group, and the weapons they brought were very simple swords and daggers, but the swords were bloody, and they were killed again and again. Compared with ordinary soldiers, their skills are indeed incomparable.
The people at the city gate today did not recognize the blue coat, but thought that he was a righteous man, and after asking a few simple questions, they let them into the city. The blue clothes rode a high-headed horse, and his aura was as lofty as if he were a fairy. The cuckoo followed him, and the light green clothes were also charming and lovely.
After entering the city, Lan Yi was no longer busy, nor did he alarm the government, but just dismissed the team, and he and Qijuan found a hotel to live in. If the two of them hadn't done that, maybe he would still have dumped the cuckoo to any of the centaurs today, and wherever they went to rest and replenish their strength.
He had thought so when he went into the city. But just when he wanted to ask the juan's opinion, he saw the other party looking at him with a firm face. After sighing that the timid and cowardly little girl had grown into an irrefutable cuckoo with sharp eyebrows and eyes, she still stretched out her hand and shook her, and then talked about the two of them as a team. The cold temperature of her hands made his heart shake a little, winter is coming.
"I think I just saw a frost." Standing on the second floor of the restaurant, the wine flags outside are swaying with the autumn breeze, the fiery red background, the black, and the inky "wine" make the autumn here slowly add a touch of humanity and warmth.
In this world, what can't be resolved with a glass of wine? If there is, then another altar.
"Don't worry, we don't know anything yet, and rushing to find it will only make the master unhappy." Outside, you can't call the queen mother anymore, but you can't lose your dignity, you can only change the way.
"Yes." Juan took the teacup he handed over, warm but not hot, just like her first impression of him for so many years, with a big plan and a plan. "Anyway, we're all the same, we're here to investigate the situation at the border."
Qing Ruifan told Lan Yi about the matter of investigating the border pass. Juan didn't tell Lan Yi why Qing Ruifan would agree to her coming. She borrowed that she was a girl at the time, and she could help Murong Zhi with something, which was a reason that was too common, that is, Qing Ruifan's kind of person who had a chaotic relationship would allow her, just like not seeing her selfishness.
"Well," Lan Yi nodded, looking at the people outside with a resolute face, and then suddenly remembered, "I haven't had a good time with you yet, so I'll accompany you to take a good walk around the city today." "On the street outside, red men and green women, although it is early winter and late autumn, still do not block love.
"Huh?" The cuckoo didn't understand. Didn't you say you were going to explore the border? How can there be time to wander around?
"I can't give you anything else, even ordinary companionship, I may not be able to do it." Blue Yi understands this very well, "However, it is a little bit to be able to seize a little time, believe me." He subconsciously felt that he was really treating this girl who had always been holding grudges with him, obviously he was such a person worthy of his cherishment, but he didn't have the time and qualifications.
"Hmm." The juan's answer was unusually simple, he walked over from the open window, drank tea, reached out to hold the man's hand, the warm spring on his face, the heat of the whole person, and a little bit of thought about him, his lover.
Courtyard.
"Master, they are here in blue today." Yunshuang just went out to have a look today, and then she met an acquaintance. It's still the kind of acquaintance who doesn't very welcome.
"Really?" Gu Lingge looked at the rice paper in front of him, his eyebrows twisted into a dead knot, and it became more and more unpredictable.
"Master, should we go and check?" Yunshuang saw Gu Lingge's obvious absent-mindedness, so she could only ask again.
"No, I'll just find a time to go to him." Murong Zhi looked away, folded the rice paper, and put it under the paperweight on the side, her head raised, and her eyes were clear.
