Wei Ji was suddenly asked about this matter and panicked for a while, but at this moment, she calmed down, her eyes were as clear as water, and she looked straight at him, "I have never understood military affairs, and besides, His Majesty specially instructed that day not to let outsiders know. ”

Huan Qi twisted his eyebrows when he heard this, and stared at her: "I'm also an outsider"

Wei Ji was silent.

Huan Qi stood up suddenly, his face became extremely ugly, "Okay, very good." He was imposing, like a sharp sword out of the sheath, glanced at Wei Ji coldly, and strode away from the door.

Jiang Yu saw that the two of them were about to talk just now, and he had avoided going out, but he didn't say a word inside, Huan Qi rushed out angrily, he raised his feet and was about to follow, but Huan Qi turned his head and shouted: "Honestly guard." ”

Jiang Yu saw that his face was blue with anger, and he was willing to keep it in his heart, so he stood in front of the door and did not move.

Huan Qi walked to the backyard of the post house, and the front and back of the courtyard were guarded by guards, Seeing him coming, the guards saluted one after another, Huan Qi waved his hand impatiently, and let them perform their duties. In the early winter, the night wind was cold, and he walked around the courtyard, but the anger in his heart did not subside at all.

Seeing her detached tone just now saying "outsider", and silently admitting it, he seemed to have a basin of cold water on his head, and he was furious in an instant, and he was about to have a seizure. can see that her face is pale, she is still sick a few days ago, and her blood has not fully recovered. His teeth were almost rattling, and anger was about to burst out of his chest, but he held it back.

Huan Qi knew that Wei Ji didn't think he was the closest person in his heart. Two days before leaving Jiankang, he happened to hear the servants talking about Jiangxia, and then he knew that she had been preparing to return to her hometown for a long time, and she had never planned to follow him to Jiangzhou. Huan Qi couldn't see it, if it weren't for the fact that she was out of the western suburbs, she was afraid of the power of the Wang family, so she was very obedient and obedient, but she still had other plans in her heart, and she didn't think about marrying him.

Huan Qi held back the fire in his belly, his face was dark, and he really couldn't understand in his heart, he was powerful and powerful, and those nobles and high-ranking people in Jiankang who were above the top saw him and wanted to come to him. Several families saw that he had not yet married a wife, and during the state funeral, they vaguely signaled that there was an unmarried girl in the family, so he only needed to nod his head, and let him marry into the family like a princess or a princess. But he refused all, and for the sake of Wei Ji, he also dragged the Huan family and King Changshan to discuss their relatives. Huan Qi asked himself if he had ever worked so hard for a woman, but Wei Ji seemed to be unappreciative at all, which made him suddenly feel a sense of frustration.

Huan Qi has been invincible in his life, he has never tasted failure, and he is extremely unbearable at the moment, and he can't wait to go back immediately and pick up people and ask him clearly, why did he become an outsider in his mother's mother.

The tea bowl in Wei Ji's hand was empty, and she reached for the teapot and was about to pour it. I heard Hui Niang's voice outside. It turned out that Hui Niang saw that she had been away for a while and hadn't gone back, so she came over to ask about the situation.

Jiang Yu was also having a headache, and whispered a few words about the situation just now.

Hui Niang understood as soon as she heard it, and entered the room and persuaded him earnestly: "Qi Langjun has a violent temper when he was a child, and your uncle broke a rattan in the past, but he didn't let him admit his mistakes, but Mrs. Le cried at night, which made him soften, why do you say this?"

Wei Ji said: "When he was a child, he had a backlash in the back of his head. ”

"Nonsense," Hui Niang patted the back of her hand heavily, "Don't look at Qilangjun's unruly and unruly, but in your heart, you really want to say something, don't stand up to it, say a few more good words." ”

Wei Ji sighed lightly, got up and went out, and asked Jiang Yuhuan where he went.

Jiang Yu immediately said: "I didn't hear the sound of preparing the horse to go out, it should be in the yard, Xiao Langjun hurried down to take a look." ”

Wei Ji came to the backyard and saw Huan Qi standing under the porch.

The lights were dim, and he was already tall, stretched slender by the shadows cast by the dim light. Wei Ji walked over, he turned his head, his expression was displeased, and there was a cold color between his eyebrows.

Wei Ji was swept by his gaze, her heart couldn't help but tremble slightly, her lips moved, and said, "Second brother, it's cold outside, let's go back and talk about it." ”

Huan Qi snorted coldly from his nose, "You are very idle, and you can manage the affairs of outsiders." ”

Wei Ji blinked, and slowly showed a smile, "I didn't mean that." ”

Huan Qi looked at her, his eyes were sharp, and his expression was deep, "Could it be that I misheard it just now that Guangling has a private soldier, you know it but you don't show your mouth, why did Sima Pi promise you any benefits and let you defend him so wholeheartedly?"

Wei Ji heard that he was not shy away from the name of the new emperor in the courtyard, his heart jumped, he looked left and right, and saw that there were no outsiders, so he said: "The second brother doesn't listen to me clearly." First of all, the valley of Guangling is full of northland refugees, I have not seen it, I don't know how many people there are, I don't know how many people do not know the training geometry, how to talk to the second brother. Furthermore, Jiankang is different from other places, all forces are there, if I talk too much and cause trouble, the second brother does not have many guards, and there are losses in fighting with the left guard, I am worried that the second brother will fall into the treacherous situation of Jiankang, and I plan to wait until I leave Jiankang and then talk to the second brother. There is another more important matter, the military has always been dangerous, I selfishly only hope that the second brother is safe, and it is better not to get involved in these rights and wrongs. ”

After speaking, the courtyard was quiet, and there was no reaction from Huan Qi for a long time. Wei Ji quietly looked at the past, thinking that the words she had thought of when she came just now were useless

Huan Qi suddenly reached out and pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly.

"It's all about coaxing me."

Wei Ji heard his voice grinding lightly in her ears, and quickly shook her head, "It's all true." ”

Huan Qi sighed in his heart, listening to the two reasons she said just now, his chest tightness and shortness of breath had disappeared for the most part, and then when he heard her last words "worried about the second brother", the anger in her mouth suddenly disappeared without a trace, lowered his head and kissed her hair, and said: "You don't know that the military situation is serious, but in the future, you are not allowed to say anything like this." ”

Wei Ji was surrounded by the strong male aura on his body, and he was extremely uncomfortable, just when he moved, Huan Qi hugged her tighter, she was red from her cheeks to her ears, and said, "Second brother, let go of me and talk well." ”

Huan Qi chuckled, "The night wind is cold, this is just right, and it won't let you freeze." ”

Wei Ji stiffened her face, "Let people see what it looks like." ”

Huan Qi lowered his eyes, stared at her reddened ear for a long time, his heart itched for a while, and he reached out and pinched the white and tender earlobe. Wei turned her head and glared at him.

Huan Qi smiled suddenly, leaned into her ear and whispered: "Actually, the second brother knows that Sima Pi helped you when you left Yuzhang, and you have been listening to Zhao Lin's lectures in the past two years.

Wei Ji was suddenly startled, and her lips moved slightly, "...... No, it isn't. ”

Huan Qi smiled casually, held her hand again, and said, "It's windy outside, look at your face and hands are cold, you are not in good health, go back first." After speaking, he couldn't help but say and pulled her back to the inner hall.

Jiang Yu saw that the two described intimacy, and quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

After entering the house, Huan Qi asked the servant to exchange for a pot of hot tea. Wei Ji sat there, looking at her from time to time, pursing her lips, looking a little uneasy.

Huan Qi Shi Ran sat down and said, "I just said that I wanted to go back to Jiangxia."

Wei Jiao's eyes moved, and she looked at him without speaking. Huan Qi's momentum was terrifying when he was angry, but he just smiled and said those few words that made her feel even more powerful, as if he had seen through her whole body and had nothing to hide. Facing him, Wei Jiao's pressure doubled.

Huan Qi handed the hot tea to her and said with a smile: "What are you afraid of, things in this world have always been a willingness to fight and a willingness to suffer, what you say, whether it is true or false, the second brother loves to listen." ”

Wei Ji froze slightly, holding the tea bowl in her hand and almost spilling the tea, but Huan Qi steadied her hand, her face seemed to be smiling, but the depths of her eyes were fierce, "Yudu has planned it in Jiankang, are you going to go back to Jiangxia to find my uncle and aunt, I want them to come forward to dissuade me, let me not fight your idea"

Wei Jiao was already oozing a body of sweat on her back, and her eyes lowered slightly, "I, I'm just homesick, last year...... Yuan Ri never went back......"

As he watched, her voice grew softer.

Huan Qi didn't speak, seeing that her little face was pale, holding the tea bowl in both hands, she took a sip gently, and her eyes were dodgy. He was angry and funny, and there was a trace of irrepressible pity in his heart, which made him very strange to himself, and he didn't open his mouth for a while.

There was silence in the room.

Wei Ji didn't know the bottom in her heart, Huan Qi's performance these days was much more lenient than in the past, which made her think that she had figured out a little bit of his temper, and just now she was thinking of saying a few nice words to confuse the past, but she didn't know that he was looking at the fire, but it seemed that the good words before were all deliberately accommodating her.

Wei Ji blinked lightly and lowered her head to drink tea again.

Huan Qi's body moved, sat down beside Wei Ji from the other end of the short table, took away the tea bowl in her hand, and then stretched out his long arm to hug her, and said, "The idea is good." My aunt and uncle have nurtured me, and I will not listen to what others say, but I will be cautious about what they say. ”

Wei Ji listened to him say what he planned to hide in his heart, and he didn't have the slightest peace of mind, but became more and more uneasy, and looked at him in a daze.

Huan Qi's chest was broad, completely enveloping her, pinching her face lightly, and said, "Since Yudu wants to go back to Jiangxia, then go to Jiangxia." Seeing Wei Ji's face in disbelief, he smiled and kissed her directly on the lips, "Long journey, the second brother is not worried about letting you go alone, your ability to cause trouble is too great, and the second brother will be distressed if something goes wrong on the road, so I plan to send you back in person, Gao is not happy."

Wei Ji was stunned, frowned, and closed her mouth tightly and said nothing.

————

In the blink of an eye, in December, there were two snowfalls in Jiangxia, and the light snow foam disappeared for a while, and the salt sprinkled in the mountains and fields seemed to leave a layer of light white.

A few days ago, the Wei family received a message from Kuaima, saying that Huan Qi and Wei Ji were coming back, and early in the morning, the servants came to report that Jiankang was a visitor.

Wei Shen didn't think much about it for a while, thinking that Huan Qi Wei had arrived in advance, and Wei Sheng, who was detained in the courtyard for early reading, cheered, and ran out and went straight to the door, but saw a young general waiting in front of the door with his guards, reporting that he was the commander of the Praetorian Guard.

Wei Shen stepped to the door, and when he heard this, his face suddenly changed, and he invited him in.

Fanning walked into the courtyard as he looked around without a trace. Thinking that the Wei family settled in Jiangxia when he crossed to the south, he was far away from Jiankang, but he still had some foundation inside, and he saw that the backyard was wide and quiet, and the servants were orderly, so he nodded secretly.

When he arrived at the hall and sat down, Fan Ning took the initiative to salute Wei Shen, who was a fourth-grade when he was a grade, and now he has no official position, but thinking of Sima Pi's strange will, he did not dare to be contemptuous of the Wei family, and he was thoughtful.

Wei Shen saw that Fan Ning was already the commander of the Praetorian Guard at a young age, and regardless of his rank, such an official position must be someone close to the new emperor.

Both of them were very polite, and after greeting for a while, Wei Shen asked, "I don't know why General Fan came here?"

Fan Ning's face was bitter, he arrived in Jiangxia the day before yesterday, and deliberately set aside a day to inquire about the situation, but no matter how he asked, Wei did not have a girl. He was in a hurry to get on the fire, and he didn't sleep well for two nights in a row, and his eyes were blue.

"Wei Gong ......" Fan Ning said with difficulty, "I don't know if you are a wandering girl outside"

The author has something to say:

Wei Shen: Look at your kid's thick eyebrows and big eyes, why aren't you a good person to come to dismantle the house

Yesterday I had a headache, I was going to sleep for an hour to get up and code words, but I slept directly until dawn, I'm sorry, I will make up tomorrow thanks to the little angel who voted for me during 2023-05-29 22:50:52~2023-05-31 23:09:45~

Chapter 207: Chapter 206: Homecoming

Wei Shen has a handful of beautiful hair, elegant and old, and he usually has a lot of love, but when he heard Fan Ning's question, he was dumbfounded, and with a lot of effort in his hand, he directly broke a few beards, and immediately bared his teeth and hurriedly asked: "What does General Fan mean by this?"

Fan Ning coughed twice, and said stubbornly: "Gong Ke has an heir or a girl."

Wei Shenden glared and blew his beard, and almost got up, "General Fan came to the door and deliberately tricked me," he said, glancing at the two servants and maids in front of the hall. Le's is in charge of the inner courtyard, and the words he said just now are afraid that they will soon reach Le's ears.

Fan Ning was reprimanded, his face turned pale, and he said helplessly: "Duke Wei is not angry, I am here on the orders of the emperor, Your Majesty has taken a fancy to the Wei girl, but I have inquired for many days, and I heard that there is no girl in the Wei family."

Wei Shen was already angry just now, but he was stunned at this time, looked at Fan Ning for a long time, and said, "Did the general mishear what His Majesty said, maybe it wasn't Wei's." ”

Fanning has been worried for a few days, and his face turned purple when he heard the words, "It's impossible."

Wei Shen only felt ridiculous, if it weren't for Fanning's identity in front of him, he wouldn't have done much nonsense, but his face was also extremely ugly.

Fan Ning already had a plan in his heart, and said with a smile: "Wei Gong is not strange, I don't know if there are other clansmen in the Wei clan in Hedong now."

Wei Shen stroked his beard, pondered for a long time, and sighed: "There are only two left, Jiangxia still has the surname Wei, but it is not a Hedong clan." ”

Fan Ning sighed and said, "I don't know if there are girls among these Wei surnames."

Wei Shen listened to what he said and inquired about the girl, and was quite helpless, and said: "There are not many heirs of the Wei family, it seems that I heard that there is a girl in the county Dongwei family." ”

Fan Ning's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said in his heart that even if it was not the Wei clan in Anyi, Hedong, as long as he had a Wei surname, he could barely be counted. He also regretted it at this time, knowing that he should have the courage to ask for clarification that day, and he would not be at a loss when he came to Jiangxia.

He also pondered privately two days ago, the Wei family is not obvious now, why His Majesty suddenly asked for the name of Jiangxia Wei, is it because Wei Xiaolang has an outstanding appearance, a name for Jiankang, and is known as Yulang, which made His Majesty think of Nawei girl

Fanning couldn't help it, and when he heard a girl, he immediately said that he wanted to invite him to see her.

Wei Shen looked at him: "The general really wants to see"

Fanning nodded solemnly.

Wei Shen smiled meaningfully and asked the servants to invite people.

Fanning and Wei Shen sat and drank tea, chatting with each other. Fan Ning knew that he was acting in a disorderly manner today, and he didn't mention the girl again during this time, but said something about Jiankang, especially Wei Xiaolangjun's fame, and the Jiankang woman girl didn't know anything.

Wei Shen's face was much softer when he heard this, and there was a smile on his face.

An hour later, the servant made a call outside the door, and Wei Shen said, "Please come in." ”

Fanning immediately turned his head to look, only to see a woman in cloth carrying a three or four-year-old girl in her arms, with a round face and round eyes, holding a small octagonal ball embroidered with cloth in her hand.

Wei Shen said: "This is the girl of the Wei family in Chengdong. ”

Fanning stiffened and turned, his lips trembling, and he was speechless for a moment.

The woman saluted Wei Shen with her baby and looked at Fanning. Wei Shen asked a few words, gave some gifts, and asked the woman to take the girl back.

Seeing the Wei girl, Fan Ning's face completely drooped, said a few words to Wei Shen, and left with a sad face.

Wei Shen couldn't help but shake his head, and after the others left, he told Le's about it as a joke.

Le Shi also laughed for a while, and said: "Originally, there was a girl, but it was also matched with the Xie family, how could I go to the palace." ”

Wei Shen thought of Fan Ning mentioning Wei Ji's name as Meilangjun now, and couldn't help but figure out the meaning of the new emperor, but after thinking for a moment, he quickly put his thoughts away with a sigh.

After noon on the second day, Huan Qiwei and his party returned to Jiangxia, Le got a letter in the morning, asked the servants to sweep the court, clean up inside and outside, and asked someone to go to the next door to inform Yang, and after waiting for most of the day, he heard the sound of horses' hooves approaching outside, and immediately stood up.
