Chapter 33: The Crisis of Love Rivals
Chu Yunxuan saw that she was not dressed as a palace maid yesterday, but was wearing a pale pink skirt, which looked very smart and cute, and he unconsciously raised the corners of his lips. In just a moment, Chu Yunxuan withdrew his smile and asked with a gloomy face: "Where you went, I couldn't find you." ”
Crooked back and pointed to the table: "These are for you to eat?"
Chu Yunxuan stretched out his hand to break her back and let her look at herself: "I don't like you to disappear from my eyes like that." ”
Said crookedly: "Eat first, there is something that can't be finished eating." As he spoke, a loach slipped out of Chu Yunxuan's hand, sat down, picked up chopsticks and ate.
Chu Yunxuan looked at it with both anger and amusement.
"How can there be such a heartless person as you. "Sit down next to her.
Xiao Ningzi pursed her lips and smiled: "Crooked, don't you know, when you leave, someone is worried." ”
The crooked chopsticks kept stopping: "Who is worried?"
Xiao Ningzi looked at Chu Yunxuan, Chu Yunxuan glared at him, he lowered his head and smiled silently.
Crookedly turned to Chu Yunxuan: "Why don't you eat it, I'm so embarrassed." ”
Chu Yunxuan smiled: "You feed me." ”
Xiao Ningzi on the side shivered, and his flesh was numb.
"Are your arms all right?" Tilted his hand and tugged at the hem of his shirt, "Show me." ”
As he spoke, he began to pull out his clothes.
Xiao Ningzi hurriedly turned his face away: "I suddenly remembered, I still have something to do, so I will retire first, master." ”
The rabbit didn't run as fast as he did.
I opened it crookedly, looked at it, and saw that the bruise was darker than yesterday: "You didn't apply some medicine?"
Chu Yunxuan covered her hand, and his voice was extremely tender: "Crooked, do you know that you are going to draft a girl." ”
Crooked hand withdraw, picked up chopsticks and continued to eat, "Choose it, what do you have to do with me!"
Chu Yunxuan felt that his heart was grabbed by a hand, and he pinched it hard, and he couldn't breathe in pain for a while.
"You don't mind?"
Crookedly picked up a piece of meat and handed it to Chu Yunxuan's mouth: "How can I have time to take care of those idle things." ”
"Idleness?" another tingle.
"Here you go. ”
Chu Yunxuan pushed it away.
"Why don't you want me to feed it again. Crooked threw the meat into his mouth and chewed it with relish, "It's delicious." ”
Chu Yunxuan suddenly pulled her and sealed her mouth. Caught off guard, Crooked's eyes widened in surprise at first, but soon he was wrapped in that inexplicable sweet feeling, slowly closed his eyes, and indulged in it.
Chu Yunxuan was puzzled, he didn't understand what was going on with the girl in front of him who was touching her heart. Why was she indifferent when she heard about the draft girl, could it be that she didn't like him at all, everything was his wishful thinking. But if she didn't like him, why didn't she refuse his skin-to-skin affection. Chu Yunxuan withdrew slightly and looked at the person in front of him.
He fanned his long eyelashes crookedly, and opened his eyes to stare at Chu Yunxuan.
"Let me ask you again, do you want to participate in the show girl election?" Chu Yunxuan slowly spit out word by word, for fear that the other party would not hear clearly.
Crooked replied without thinking: "I don't want to participate, I'm going to you to go." ”
"Really?"
"Oh, you're not bothered. Crookedly pushed Chu Yunxuan.
Chu Yunxuan Huo Ran stood up, flicked his long sleeves, and entered the inner room. He thought she would chase after him, but he sulked for a long time and did not move, and when he came out of the inner room, he saw that the table was empty, and his heart was empty, and something was blocked in his throat, and he could not swallow or spit it out.
At this time, Xiao Ningzi walked into the door: "Why did she leave so quickly, can the master ask which palace she is from?"
Chu Yunxuan turned around indifferently, entered the inner room and collapsed on the bed, covering his head with a quilt. vaguely, and her breath, stirred him more and more uneasy. Huo Di got up and stepped out the door.
"Master, where are you going?" Xiao Ningzi saw that he was angry, and hurriedly followed. Chu Yunxuan ignored it, walked out of the gate, and turned to the right. Suddenly, he stopped, and the two people standing opposite him not far in front of him were talking to each other.
The man in the dark robe patted his hand on the top of the girl's head as if blaming: "If you run around again, I will lock you up." Go, go with me. ”
As he spoke, the man grabbed the girl's arm.
Chu Yunxuan's back stiffened, his heart clenched together, and his hands clenched into fists.
Xiao Ningzi looked at the two people who walked away and said, "Isn't that crooked, how can she be with the general at the edge of the town." ”
"The general of the town, shouldn't he be stationed in the Heishui River, how did he get to the palace. "Chu Yunxuan has heard of Long Tianlin, and knows that he went to the battlefield at the age of fifteen, became famous at the age of seventeen, became a hussar general at the age of twenty-two, and was named a general at the age of twenty-five. All along, he had been looking forward to seeing the true face of this great general, and secretly thought that he would also gallop like him to build a career.
"The general escorted the princess into the palace, and at this moment the king left him in the palace to purge the Praetorian Guard. I also heard that the king ordered a marriage and promised him the princess Yunzhen. Xiao Ningzi kept talking, and she didn't see Chu Yunxuan's face getting more and more gloomy. The grip of the hand became tighter and tighter, and the nails pierced into the palms and oozed blood.
"You don't know, the girls in our entire Ji'an City are lined up to marry General Long. Your rival in love is very strong!" Xiao Ningzi became more and more proud.
Chu Yunxuan turned around suddenly and returned to the Taichen Hall with a black face.
Xiao Ningzi hurriedly stopped, followed behind him in a sneer, and thought in his heart: Could it be that the master is jealous.
Returning to Qingluan Villa, Chunlan, who was waiting at the door, watched the two of them walking towards her, her eyes were unconsciously covered with a layer of mist, and her heart was slightly sour. How she thought, now Long Tianlin is in the palm of her hand.
Trying to pull up a smile, Chunlan greeted her: "There is General Lao." ”
Long Tianlin let go of the crookedness: "It was originally what I should have done, I should say that I have to thank you, let you help me take care of such a troublesome spirit." ”
Stared at him crookedly: "Who do you say is the troublemaker." ”
Long Tianlin glanced at her: "Who knows." ”
"You nasty!" clapped his hand crookedly.
Long Tianlin covered his shoulders: "You are the nasty ghost." ”
"Wait until I win the game, hehe. He smiled crookedly.
When Long Tianlin saw her, his sword eyebrows raised: "What bad idea are you thinking about?"
"Hmph! He shook off the sentence crookedly and jumped into the house.
Long Tianlin sighed: "It's really grinding. ”
Chunlan was fascinated, it was the first time she had seen such an energetic Long Tianlin, and she didn't look old and solemn on weekdays at all, but like a big boy, arguing with her sweetheart. Thinking of this, Chunlan's heart tightened. Could it be that this crooked girl is his sweetheart?
"General Long, do you have a sweetheart?" she plucked up her courage and spoke.
Long Tianlin didn't expect Chunlan to ask himself such a question, he was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"
"Nature is true. ”
"Yes!" Long Tianlin said.
The sun was completely gone, and the remnants of the daylight covered the earth with a faint force, and soon night would fall.
Chunlan didn't dare to look at Long Tianlin anymore, she knew that she was delusional, she was just a lowly maid, and he was a heroic general. However, it was enough for her to stay with him, even if it was just to be a maid, as long as she could see his face and hear his voice.
Chunlan reached into the cuffs, twisted the embroidered purse, hesitated for a moment, and took out an empty hand.
Knowing that it is impossible, it is better not to show your heart, so be it, it is enough.
Long Tianlin left Qingluan Villa and returned to Xuanying Palace.
"The order goes down, and tomorrow, all the Praetorian Guards will assemble in the Xuanwu Palace. Long Tianlin instructed his cronies Lian Kundao.
Lian Kun said yes and strode away.
In the past two days, I wandered around the palace from time to time, and after observation, I found that the military discipline of the Praetorian Guard was not in order, and the soldiers were lazy. He also looked at the list of the Praetorian Guard, which numbered 1,500 people, and it is not yet known whether the actual number is true or not, and whether there are any empty salaries.
*
As night fell, the wings of darkness shrouded the city of Ji'an. Two figures, one red and one black, rose from the wasteland in the eastern suburbs, and their eyes converged on the palace at the same time.
"Only the palace has not been searched. The man's voice said, a complicated expression on his pale face under the black cloak.
Hongtong bowed: "Lord Ghost Fang, why don't you let me go and look for it." ”
Ghost Fang nodded: "The girl with a delicate heart, now twelve years old, has a red scar on the left side of her face. ”
I only heard a poignant female voice rising from the hood: "You are in a hurry!"
The man said angrily, "I didn't!"
"You and I are the same body, and you still want to lie to me. The female voice laughed bitterly, "Now is not a good time to attack the palace, you have been waiting for more than twenty years, are you still in a hurry at this time?" ”
"How long will we have to wait?" the man roared, his voice bent down in pain.
"Hahaha, hahahahaha. "Contrary to the man's pain, the real ghost in the hood roared.
I don't know anything about the gloomy clouds and mist outside, and at this time I was practicing the Dragon Family Exercises in the courtyard, and I broke a branch at will to replace it without a sword. The annoying Mother Qin had already left, while Chunlan and Du Zhong were watching with relish and applauding again and again.
Hearing the applause, Crooked practiced more energetically, flipping and moving more vigorously. Compared with her previous powerless self, she obviously felt that she was different, not to mention that her strength had increased, and there was always a stream of qi flowing in her body, which made her feel comfortable and more hungry.
After a beating, his stomach was empty, and he looked at Du Zhong pitifully: "Is there anything else to eat?"
"You've got some dinner left, would you like to eat it?"
Crooked nodded frantically.
Wait for the eucommia to be brought, and eat it crookedly and happily. Such a princess who has no shelves and eats leftovers, Du Zhong is still seeing it for the first time, and he secretly said in his heart that the hard days are over. When I didn't come to Qingluan Villa, I was serving in the eldest princess's mansion, and the eldest princess was very perverse and terrifying, as long as she did the slightest wrong, she would be beaten at least and killed at worst. Because of her ugly appearance, the eldest princess looked uncomfortable, so she was sent back to the palace. On that day, Princess Yuhan entered the palace, and the stewardship sent her.
After eating, he stretched his waist contentedly and looked at the two people waiting next to him: "You guys go rest, I don't have anything to do for you." ”
Chunlan said: "Don't run around anymore." ”
Crooked smile: "If I don't run today, I'll practice in the yard for a while, and I'll sleep in a while." ”
Chunlan smiled helplessly, if you don't run today, does it mean that you will run tomorrow?
After the two left, Crooked continued to practice in the courtyard, and the moonlight fell, forming a hazy halo around her. The spring breeze is frivolous, and under the dance, the skirt is rippling.
A young man in Tsing Yi appeared silently outside the garden and looked inside for a long time.
