Chapter 124: Night Thoughts

Xiao Yan and Shen Qingyi went to the hall after leaving the main room, and the three of them talked again, and Xiao Cong and Shen Qingyi left.

Xiao Yan bathed and changed clothes, it was not early, he talked to the three maids, and said a few words to Xiao Jisi at the gate of Jingyuan, and saw Xiao Chengzhi coming over with An Yexi, and the three of them went to the middle gate of the Guogong Mansion to meet with the others.

Surrounded by the guards, Xiao Yu took his son and his staff out of the Guogong Mansion and went to the Dadu Governor's Mansion across the street.

The celebration banquet was set up in the front hall of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, and the generals and captains above the Qiwu Army, the Xiao Cavalry Army and the Weisheng military camp level all participated in the celebration banquet, and some captains with outstanding military achievements were also at the celebration banquet. Xiao Yan's deputy battalion general in the Jingnan Army has been dismissed, but her martial rank has been promoted to the sixth rank of the main battalion general's martial rank, and she is qualified enough to sit here in terms of military merits. Cao Yuandu laughed when he saw her and invited her to sit at the seat of the Xiao Cavalry. Xiao Yan was happy. The Jingnan Army and the Xiao Cavalry Army have fought jointly many times, and the generals on both sides are quite familiar, plus the logo mask on her face, most of the captains of the Xiao Cavalry have seen her or heard of her, and they all greeted her warmly, and they raised their toasts when the banquet started. Xiao Yan felt that this wine was not delicious - not sweet, but she would not refrain from the sincerity of her comrades' toasts.

In the middle of the banquet, these generals did not sit on the table, and toasted in groups of three or five, Xiao Yan was also dragged by the captains of the Xiao cavalry army, and saluted all the way, I don't know how much he drank...... A lot of people are drunk.

Xiao Cheng and Xiao Ying were both in the captain's seat of the Xiao Cavalry, and the two felt that they couldn't beat Xiao Seventeen for the time being, so they poured her down from the amount of wine first, and when they hugged and toasted, they pulled Xiao Yan to their table to fight for wine. All the lieutenants here are six or seven points drunk, and they are drunk, regardless of whether these three are the sons of the governor of the capital and the Langjun of Liang Guogong, they are clamoring to fight together...... After drinking, the captains of one piece all fell, and the "three brothers" were still drunk, and they went to "change clothes" more than a dozen times, and came back to continue fighting.

Xiao Cheng shouted louder and louder, "Xiao Seventeen, don't think that you are my own brother...... I'll just ...... I'll let you go......" and fell on the carpet.

Xiao Jue laughed out loud, got up and walked two steps, and lay down on Xiao Cheng's body - he had to pull a cushion when he was drunk. This is brotherhood, Xiao Ying feels that he is really affectionate.

Xiao Cheng was so pressed that his eyes opened, and said angrily: "Xiao Nineteen...... Get lost...... Open ......"

Xiao Nineteen was already asleep.

Xiao Cheng raised his hand and patted him on the head with a "snap", stretched out his hand to push but didn't push it, and saw Xiao Seventeen's "silver face" with confused eyes, and muttered: "Why haven't you fallen ...... yet" His eyes closed and he fell asleep.

Xiao Yan half leaned on the desk and smiled, her head was also dizzy, and she saw An Yexi's two shadows dangling in front of her.

She stretched out her hand and pressed her head, and in a trance saw Xiao Cheng and Xiao Jue's guards coming, leaning on the case and smiling, waving her hand and saying, "Carry them back." Say, I'm still awake. Ha! Ha! Ha! ”

The four guards heard the smug "Ha! Ha! Ha" The three voices were speechless, if they dared to say this after Lang Jun woke up, they would definitely be kicked, and they responded respectfully, and the two of them carried one and left.

Xiao Chengzhi walked over, bowed down and asked, "Seventeen Langjun?" ”

Xiao Yan waved his hand and asked him, "Father, and the fourth brother, aren't you drunk?" ”

Xiao Chengzhi replied: "Guogong has been helped back, and many generals toast ...... "In that case, if you are not drunk, you are a god." He also said: "The prince only drank a few glasses, and the other toasts were drunk by Xiao Chengzhong." ”

Xiao Yan nodded, "That's good." "It is also good for the fourth brother to recover from his illness, at least the army knows that he picked a life from Yama, and will not pour him wine. He asked again: "Has the fourth brother gone back?" ”

Xiao Chengzhi said: "The prince of the world went back with the prince of the country. It's time to rest in Res Hall tonight. ”

Xiao Yan propped his head and smiled, "The fourth brother is filial." We just drank it. Well, what about the second brother, also drunk? ”

Xiao Chengzhi narrowed his eyes, "I drank and vomited three times, and was helped out by the guards, saying that I wanted to 'serve my father's bedside'." This should go back to Duantokuin. ”

Duande Courtyard is the courtyard where Xiao Zhang lives.

Xiao Yan felt that her father's name was very good, and her second brother should take a stand, laughed and didn't comment much, grabbed An Yexi's arm and shook it to stand up, and helped her shoulder and arm to walk out.

The hall was lit up, and when I left the hall, I saw that the sky was already dark, and there were twinkling stars in the sky.

"What time is it?" Xiao Yan asked.

"It's past two hours." Xiao Chengzhi replied beside him.

Xiao Yan snorted, and then ordered An Yexi: "Go, school." ”

There is a school field in the yamen of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, which is usually used for small competitions, and the large-scale martial arts arena is of course in the army.

An Yexi muttered what kind of school field to go to at this time, but she had been Xiao Yan's personal soldier knew her temper, and she could usually joke, and when she was serious, she promised and looked at Xiao Chengzhi, which meant where the school was located.

Xiao Chengzhi was surprised, but he followed the rule of "don't ask more", nodded, took a few steps forward, took a hook lantern from the pillar, and led the way in front.

When he arrived at the school grounds, Xiao Yan stood upright, patted An Yexi and asked her to let go, took a step, walked to the middle of the school field very slowly but steadily, pulled out the knife, turned around and smiled: "Stay away." ”

Saying that the knife came out, Bai Lian slashed, and the knife wind still felt sharp even if it was more than ten zhang away.

Xiao Chengzhi and An Yexi couldn't help but retreat seven or eight feet, and An Yexi sighed, "If you are drunk, you have to practice knives, I am really convinced." ”

Xiao Chengzhi remembered the scene when this little Langjun was covered in blood and quenched after killing the "horse thief" in Yuanzhou, and said with admiration: "Seventeen Langjun has great achievements in martial arts, not only because of talent, but also because of perseverance...... I'm a role model. ”

An Yexi nodded, thinking that all of them from the family worked so hard, and they really couldn't live if they didn't work hard.

The sword light was slow at first, one move at a time, but later, An Yexi could only see the white light in the school field, and she couldn't even see the figure in the white light clearly, she only felt that the wine blowing in the wind was getting stronger and stronger, and later she felt that she was going to get drunk when she smelled the wine wind.

Xiao Chengzhi's internal strength is much deeper than her, and this bit of wine can't smoke him, seeing An Yexi like that, he thought that this guard still needs to strengthen training, although he is a female guard-I don't understand how to follow a female guard around Seventeen Langjun, I don't care about this-but it's too bad, not to mention guarding Seventeen Langjun, maybe it will become a burden; Being a personal guard on the battlefield is different from that on the battlefield, martial arts are very important, although she can't be taught Xiao's horizontal sword, but her current practice of marksmanship is also good, but she lacks further guidance, Xiao Chengzhi wondered which guard who is good at marksmanship to guide her...... However, this is not in a hurry, take your time in the future, first to see whether people are loyal or not, whether it is worth teaching, and the first thing to teach at present is the rules and etiquette. Xiao Chengzhi understood that the prince sent him to teach this new guard because he had the smartest brain and the most careful thinking, and of course he had to do this task well. He glanced at An Yexi without a trace, and an unpredictable smile crossed his lips.

Xiao Yan put away the knife after practicing the horizontal knife fighting skills all the way, and when he walked over, he saw that there were two clusters of red on An Yexi's wheat-colored cheeks, and the dimples were really dimples, so he couldn't help laughing, "Xiao An, I think you're going to get drunk." ”

"I don't blame you?" An Yexi glanced at her, stretched out her hand and fanned her nose, "Are you forcing the wine out?" It's really smelling drunk, how much did you drink? ”

Xiao Yan thought for a while, "I don't remember." There are probably dozens of two-liter stalks. ”

An Yexi's face twitched, and her body fell into Xiao Yan's arms, "I'm going to get drunk." ”

Xiao Yan reached out and grabbed her shoulder, not letting her lean into his arms, and raised his eyebrows, "Want to pretend to be drunk and take advantage of me?" ”

An Yexi snorted, "What did I take advantage of you." I felt so sorry in my heart, and I almost fell into "him" arms.

Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Because I'm prettier than you." ”

That smile is very itchy, An Yexi wanted to beat her very much, and was said by a man "I'm more beautiful than you", which hurt a woman's self-esteem too much! What's more, this woman is still a beauty!

An Yexi gave her a fierce look, snorted, raised her chin, and decided to ignore this person for a month - anyway, there is no need to take a bath now.

Xiao Chengzhi watched from the side, silently speculating in his heart that the relationship between this female guard and Seventeen Langjun seemed to be intimate, but it was not the kind of intimacy where men and women have private affairs. But this female guard is interesting, I guess I hooked up with my chief officer from time to time when I was a pro-soldier...... But apparently it didn't work out. Thinking about Seventeen Langjun's face that looked better than Pan An and was more beautiful than Wei Jue, Xiao Chengzhi smiled again. Understandable, understandable, hehe. However, it is indeed a blow to a woman when a man's beauty is like this, not to mention that this An Yexi is very beautiful when she looks closely, Xiao Chengzhi glanced at her depressed face, and smiled silently in his heart. I thought that if the seventeenth Langjun took off his mask, I was afraid that the handsome and jade-looking Langjun ladies of the Xiao family would be hit. Xiao Chengzhi smiled silently when he thought of this.

Xiao Yan's eyes were as clear as water, the wine was completely gone, and after returning to the Guogong Mansion with Xiao Chengzhi and An Yexi, he went to Rui Sitang first. She walked all the way in the wind, the smell of wine on her clothes had almost dissipated, and after entering the house, the servant brought a copper basin to clean the water and clear the face, served a cup of tea, and drank a bowl before talking to the fourth brother.

"Has Father rested?" She asked the fourth brother.

"It's rested." Xiao Cong smiled and watched her take off her robe that was still stained with some alcohol, and sat cross-legged opposite him with only her middle coat, feeling happy for her sister's intimacy, and the smile on her face became more and more warm.

Xiao Yan nodded, "Then I won't go in." I still have the smell of alcohol on me, so I don't have to wake him up again. "Filial piety lies in the heart, not in the superficial effort.

Xiao Cong smiled, "Father will be happy to know that you are coming." ”

"Well, I'll come back tomorrow to say hello to my father." Xiao Yan glanced at her brother, drank the sobering soup on the couch, watched the servant take the lamp, and served another bowl of lily water, she held a silver-edged spoon in her hand, but she didn't drink it, stirred it twice, and raised her eyes to look at her brother.

Xiao Cong knew that she had something to say, so she waved her hand and retreated.

The two siblings whispered in the side hall.

……

Xiao Yan came out of Rui Si Tang and was already the second watch.

When she passed by Chenghe Courtyard, she asked Xiao Chengzhi and An Yexi to return to the courtyard, and there was no need to send her back to Jingyuan. She hesitated to herself, thinking that Shen Qingyi must have rested so late, even if she didn't rest so late, it would be inconvenient to see her, so she could only wait for tomorrow.

Tomorrow, I will go to my father's yard to say goodbye, and then I will go to my mother's yard to say goodbye...... My sister should be there too.

Xiao Yan was sure in his heart, so he strode away.

Shen Qingyi didn't fall asleep at this time, she was lying in the brocade tent, her eyes closed, but she didn't feel sleepy.

She was thinking about Xiao Yan.

She grew taller and more mature. Just like the maple leaves that have passed through the wind and frost in autumn, they are not old because of the wind and frost, but more red and dazzling because of the frost. The grinding in the army washed away her youthfulness, just like the polishing of the years, adding a solid foundation to her verdant temperament; The chest is still a little thin, but it makes people feel strong under the flexibility, not afraid of a qiē difficulty, and hugging her feels that there is no suffering in the world to bother.

But this person is not hers.

She could only refuse her embrace.

Shen Qingyi closed his eyes and traced Xiao Yan's eyebrows, and when he didn't see this person, he thought about it all the time; When I saw this person, I still thought about it.

I thought that the emotions she suppressed could be worn away little by little with the years until it turned to ashes.

When the heart turns to ashes, it cools into mud.

But she was wrong.

When she was in the Daomen, she knew she was wrong.

She was very busy, and she deliberately immersed herself in the medicine hall's research medicine, she was indeed addicted to the medicine path, and she didn't have time to think about it, but in the dead of night, she couldn't restrain her heart from thinking about that person.

Every time I think about it, this person is a little better, and when I see the real person, I find that she is better than I imagined, and she has grown more heartbreakingly, and she can't pull it out with just one glance.

When Shen Qingyi saw Xiao Yan, she knew that she would no longer be able to grind this person out of her heart.

Her love for her is like wine buried in a deep urn, after brewing without seeing the light of day, it is more mellow and bitter, once it is opened...... Shen Qingyi touched his heart.

No, it's not time yet.

Shen Qingyi said silently.

Don't be in a hurry, take it one step at a time.

She wanted Xiao Yan, "bury it, give up her" has been cut away one by one when she carves her heart with a carving knife, she wants her, and it is more intense and clear when she sees her.

She loves her, so she can't let her become the sand between her fingers, like a drip, leaking out one by one.

Shen Qingyi was clear about her thoughts in the thought of carving knives into blood, so she had those arrangements, and she planned step by step, just like in order to protect her mother and let herself grow, she must be stronger, for her mother, and for Xiao Yuezhi.

Her slender fingers scribbled on the lines of the soft mattress, thinking to herself, Wei Zijing's side should speed up.

time, there are still two years.

Xiao Yan is sixteen, two years later, eighteen, another two years, twenty, and the crown will talk about marriage. Xiao Yan may be a few years late, but she can't count it according to this. If she doesn't get rid of Xiao Cong's identity as his wife, she won't be able to show her affection to Xiao Yan, in case, if she ...... What should I do if Xiao Yan falls in love with someone else? She couldn't afford to gamble, and she didn't dare to bet on the outcome.

As soon as he thought that Xiao Yan would fall in love with someone else, he felt that there was a knife in his heart.

She clenched her fingers, if there really was such a person...... Shen Qingyi opened his eyes, and his dark eyes were like the sharpness of a sharp knife.

No, she thought to herself, Ah Yan didn't fall in love with anyone.

Her eyes are as clear as crystal, and her heart is as clear as glass, this is not a person who is contaminated with love.

However, what is her weak heart?

Shen Qingyi thought of her white eyes and frowned.

Xiao Yuezhi is empty-hearted, otherwise she wouldn't go out first, when did she walk in front of her when she was with her?

A cold light crossed Shen Qingyi's eyes.

Thinking about the scene at that time, Xiao Yan said that he would bathe with her before his heart was empty, and then his eyes drifted...... Is it because I bathe with her and worry about what she sees?

What is there about her that makes her heart weak?

Shen Qingyi instantly thought of the kiss marks, and her eyes suddenly became sharp, but in an instant, no, there were kiss marks that would not remain on her body, as soon as the internal qi was running, the bruises would melt away, and it was impossible to stay for so long.

What's more, Xiao Yan was not so casual, and went to the bed with others.

Although he knew that there was no such possibility, the thought of "kiss marks" also made Shen Qingyi very uncomfortable, like an awl piercing his heart.

She pursed her lips, remembering Xiao Yan's faded and more moving face, as well as that mature temperament, which didn't seem to be all honed by the military...... Could it be that she ...... Who do you really have a head and tail with?
