Chapter Eighty-Three: The Inn

()

Five days later.

The Spirit Sword Conference had already begun, but it had officially started three days later. And the location is set in the valley of Qi a hundred kilometers away from the imperial city, where the spiritual energy gathers, and it is also the holy place of the Tianyi Sect.

In the early morning, there were two rows of palace people standing outside the palace gate, and two gray-blue canopy carriages also stopped there, and the four corners fell hollow gold balls, which made a clear sound in the breeze.

The inner seat of ancient sandalwood is covered with soft cushions woven with satin.

This is the carriage in which the queen and the crown prince will ride.

In a short time, an army of several hundred people also walked out of the palace gate, lined up neatly on both sides of the road. And Bai Junqian, they also have the eldest grandson, this time they are riding a horse to Qiling Mountain.

"Master, I don't know how to ride a horse. Lingxi stood beside Bai Junqian and said.

Hearing this, Bai Junqian looked around, "Or?"

"Why don't I ride in the carriage with that Chongtian Prince?" Lingxi interrupted.

"The crown prince has a noble status and will not agree"

Before the words fell, Lingxi had already gone to the carriage.

In just a few words, "Master, the prince agreed!" Lingxi turned around and smiled, and then prepared to get into the carriage.

Bai Junqian frowned slightly, and said in his heart: "Didn't the queen just push Lingxi to the crown prince yesterday? It's really not good to let them stay together now." ”

After a while, Bai Junqian also walked to the carriage and said to Lingxi, who was already seated: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not feeling well, Lingxi, it's better not to disturb Lingxi, come out"

"It's okay, since Miss Ye doesn't know how to ride a horse, it's okay to look at the huge carriage carrying her. Prince Chongtian replied.

Bai Junqian's eyes changed, although he was a little weird, but he still began to look at the Chongtian Prince, "Lingxi, do you want to ride a horse with Weishi, or stay in this carriage?"

Eventually, he said this.

"Let's ride a horse together, does Master want to teach me how to ride a horse?" Lingxi expressed great interest.

"Hmm. ”

Of course, this was also within Bai Junqian's expectations, but why did he feel a little weak-hearted?

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, I will go out on horseback. Lingxi said apologetically.

Hearing this, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince glanced at Bai Junqian, "Well, you can go." ”

Then Lingxi jumped out of the carriage, but when she stood in front of the horse, she was a little frightened.

The horse in front of her, tall and strong, with a silvery-white coat overall, neighed from time to time, and then began to stomp its feet, which frightened Lingxi.

When the letter saw it, he smiled proudly: "Senior sister, you won't dare, right? ”

At this time, he was riding on a horse with hair as red as charcoal, which looked even more terrifying than the horse in front of Lingxi.

"Lingxi. ”

Just when Lingxi was about to argue with Xin, she was called by Bai Junqian, and the moment she turned her head, a white figure flew on the horse.

The movements were done in one go, and the posture was suffocating, which made Lingxi a little stunned.

"Lingxi. Bai Junqian smiled and stretched out his hand to Lingxi, but Lingxi didn't seem to react.

Untilβ€”

"Are you ready, you're ready to go!" shouted Changsun Xing at the front of the line.

"Oh!" Lingxi quickly reacted and stretched out her hand, holding it with Bai Junqian's hand, and then her body was pulled up by a force, and after jumping into the air, she sat on the horse.

"Sit down. The horse walked, and Bai Junqian's beautiful voice came from the wind.

"Hmm. Lingxi replied lightly.

It's just that Lingxi didn't expect that Yu Baijunqian would be so close, his breathing was close at hand, and it sounded in Lingxi's ears.

She couldn't help but her heart beat faster, and the temperature from her back made her ears red.

As the horses begin to move around, this feeling of shyness grows stronger.

On the way out of the city, many people also stared at this vast team, among which in addition to the queen's sedan chair was the most conspicuous, that is, Bai Junqian and Lingxi, a pair of talented women riding a horse.

"Master" Lingxi hesitated to say something, but the words came to his lips but did not come out.

In fact, what she wanted to say was that she had better go and take the carriage of His Royal Highness the Prince, otherwise if her heart continued to beat so fast, she would not be able to breathe.

But after leaving the city gate, the scenery unfolding in front of Lingxi's eyes made her forget about it for a while.

The green weeds outside the city had decayed in the autumn and formed a vast area of golden earth, and the sky when you looked up at it glowed softly, clear and ethereal, and one wanted to hear the larks singing loudly.

Looking sideways and looking back, the imperial city was getting farther and farther away.

"Master, did the ancestor go back first?"

"Hmm. said that he was very worried that Riluo would stay in the house alone. ”

"That"

"The Yuechen Immortals must stay in the palace, after all, the previous rebellion has just subsided, and it is better to leave a person in charge in the palace. Bai Junqian said.

Hearing this, Lingxi said half-jokingly: "Master, how do I feel that you know what I want to say and what I want to ask." ”

"Really?" Bai Junqian smiled. Although she couldn't see his smile, she felt comfortable listening to the smile in his voice.

Originally, Bai Junqian wanted to go to Edgeworth, after all, Shangguan's family also went to Edgeworth.

But I didn't expect the queen mother and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to go together, saying that they were visiting the emperor who they hadn't seen for a long time, so that they could only go on horseback now, and brought Changsun Xing and his subordinates as guards.

If nothing else, take a break in the middle of the day, and you will be able to arrive at dusk the next day.

However, their luck was so bad, and by noon the thin sun had disappeared, and some cold rain began to pour down.

"Find a place to rest, the queen has a headache now," the queen said as a maid walked out of the carriage and conveyed to everyone.

"Yes!" Changsun Xing replied, the raindrops hitting his armor, dark and shiny, lining the whole person more energetic.

And Bai Junqian and the others cast an enchantment to block the rain.

After a while, in the hazy rain curtain, accompanied by a somewhat dim skylight, several red lanterns appeared in front of them, which were particularly conspicuous.

When we got closer, a smaller, more isolated town appeared, and the red lanterns hung in the kiosk at the entrance to the town.

And Bai Junqian and the others also wanted to take a rest in the inn of this town at the request of the queen.

"Master, it may be much later for us to arrive at Qiling Mountain. Yin said as he caught up with Bai Junqian's horse slightly.

"There is no way to be a teacher. Bai Junqian frowned and said.

"It's too late, isn't there three more days?" Lingxi said with some confusion.

Hearing this, Silver smiled reluctantly. In fact, a few days ago, Bai Junqian told him about Yubi, and he was worried about himself now, so he was anxious to see his father.

"It's fine. Bai Junqian said soothingly.

After a while, I passed a long bluestone road, and I saw people in robes coming and going on the road, and at the end was an inn against the mountain. Those soldiers were ordered by Changsun Xing to wait outside, but they were drenched in rain all the time, and Lingxi felt that they were a little pitiful.

"They thought that they had never encountered any bad weather when they went into battle to kill the enemy, and they had long been used to it, and this little rain was nothing. Xin said with an eyebrow.

Hearing this, Lingxi nodded silently, and followed Bai Junqian and them into the inn that looked a little sluggish.

"Yo, guest officer, hard work, come in" The shopkeeper stood up and greeted, but he was shocked to see a gorgeously dressed queen. He hurriedly knelt down, "I don't know how many dignitaries and nobles come to me and wait for the shop." There was fear and uneasiness in his tone.

The queen didn't even look at him, she was helped by the palace maid next to her to sit down, and then put a soft cushion on the place where she sat down.

After a while, it was Bai Junqian who responded to him: "The shopkeeper can get two pots of tea." ”

"Yes, yes. The villain will definitely bring out the best tea in our shop to entertain everyone. The shopkeeper quickly got up, shouted at the inner room, and then went back to the counter as if fleeing for his life.

"If you walk a few miles, you will be able to reach the royal palace on the way to the Spirit Sword Conference. Changsun Xing came in from outside the door in the rain and said, put the sword on the table, and then drank the tea cup at the bottom of the cup in one gulp.

"Ahem, ahem. Suddenly, Prince Chongtian began to cough, and the queen and the palace people hurriedly surrounded him. But it was crowded, there were too many people in this inn, and the inn was not very wide.

"Get out of here, all of you!" the queen shouted angrily at the palace people.

After a while, the palace people had to retreat stupidly, standing outside in the rain, Ran Yin was really a little unbearable after glancing at the queen, after all, they were not as strong as those soldiers, so they hurriedly applied an enchantment to protect them from the rain.

"Thank you, Prince Chongming. The words of thanks came and went, but the queen's expression was displeased.

Lingxi watched the scene from the sidelines and sighed slightly.

However, before the sigh was finished, it was interrupted by the two of them stepping into the house in the drizzle.

It was a man and a woman.

The man's face is ordinary and handsome, and the two thick black eyebrows are crisp.

The woman was tall and slender, and her face was covered by a cloak and veil.

"Ah Xing, prepare two more pots of tea!" the shopkeeper shouted to the inner room again.

"You're already resting here, how can you let the others in!" Changsun Xing stopped a man and a woman who were about to sit down.

"I don't know who you are, so domineering?" the man politely bowed.

Bai Junqian on the side stared at him for a long time, but it was very similar to the person he saw from a distance when he went to Shangguan Mansion.

The woman looked silent, raised her arm, and lifted her cloak.

When Bai Junqian looked at them, he was suddenly shocked and his heart jumped slightly.
