Chapter Eighty-Four: Parting

The maid cautiously opened the door and gently lowered the basin.

Ling'er, who was lying on the bed, opened her eyes violently and sat up.

The maid sighed helplessly, last night the princess slept so late and told herself to call her earlier, I wanted to let the princess sleep more, so the action was very gentle, but I didn't expect the princess to wake up.

"Princess, it's still early, why don't you lie down a little longer and I'll wait to call you?" asked the maid tentatively to the princess.

Ling'er took off the quilt, put on her shoes, got up and walked quickly in the direction of the maid, "No need." ”

The maid made a towel for the princess, and the princess took the towel and wiped her cheeks and sat down at the dresser.

The lips were lightly sipped on the lip grease, and the lips, which were originally slightly bloody, immediately became very rosy.

Ling'er finished dressing up, put on a white dress, turned around in front of the mirror, looked at herself in the mirror, and nodded with satisfaction.

There is a small pavilion in the courtyard, and the maid has just cleaned up this place.

Ling'er waved her hand and instructed the maid, "If there is nothing else, you can go down first." ”

The maid nodded, walked briskly to the path, took a deep look at the door in front of her, sighed and walked away.

Ling'er sat down elegantly in front of the guzheng, and after waiting for a long time before hearing the sound, Ling'er couldn't help but yawn.

Xiaobao opened his eyes and looked at the futon on his body and was very puzzled, didn't he just lie down and fall asleep last night, so is this? Could it be that he remembered wrong?

Ling'er heard the sound of water coming from the room, and her heart was happy that he got up! The slender jade hand was lightly placed in front of the guzheng, and the beautiful music of gently plucking the strings sounded.

In the room, Xiaobao's face was buried in a towel, his ears trembled slightly, and he suddenly heard a beautiful music.

Xiaobao put the towel away, walked to the door curiously, and stretched out his hands to open the closed door.

The door was pushed open, Ling'er heard the sound and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, her eyes were closed, and her hands were still plucking the strings.

Xiaobao was stunned, and looked at Ling'er in the pavilion in front of him in a daze, his hands plucked the strings lightly like flowing water, the melodious music kept coming, the sun shone obliquely on Ling'er's body, and Ling'er, who was dressed in white, was like an angel at this time, exuding holy light.

After the song, Ling'er put her hand lightly on the strings, and opened her eyes to see Xiaobao in front of her looking straight at herself, with a little crimson on her face.

Ling'er beckoned to Xiaobao, and he walked towards Ling'er with a wooden step.

Ling'er turned to the side, the tea set was placed on the table, and after Ling'er waited for Xiaobao to sit down, she skillfully brewed tea and waved her hand to Xiaobao.

Xiaobao picked up the teacup on the table, and the tea inside was steaming hot, with a faint fragrance.

The entrance is sweet, the tea has entered the abdomen, but the aroma of tea still remains between the lips and teeth.

"Do you want to listen to another song?" Ling'er asked softly as she looked at Xiaobao.

Xiaobao nodded, and the pleasant sound just now added a little joy to his originally peaceful mood, so when he saw Ling'er mention it, he didn't refuse her kindness.

Ling'er turned around again, her hand gently plucked the strings, she was very happy in her heart, Xiaobao didn't know what Ling'er thought in her heart, what Ling'er wanted to pluck was not the strings, but Xiaobao's heartstrings!

In Qingcheng, a soldier quickly ran into the tent, knelt on the ground and reported respectfully, "Report to the generalissimo, Ge Luo's cavalry has quickly rushed towards the city!"

Ji Zhan raised his head, looked at the soldier with deep eyes, then stood up, flicked his cloak and walked out of the military tent quickly.

Ji Zhan stood on the city wall and looked at the general Ge Luo below.

The bearded general Ge Luo brandished his machete and shouted, "The shrunken turtle inside, do you dare to send someone out to fight me?"

Ji Zhan's eyes flashed a little ruthlessly, and the archers beside him were ready, and with just one order, they could shoot the Ge Luo soldiers below the city into a hornet's nest.

But Ji Zhan didn't give an order, and still looked coldly at the general Ge Luo who was constantly provoking and shouting under the city.

If you send people out to fight, wouldn't it be better if the Gero army attacked at this time......

But if you don't send people to fight against it, will the morale of the soldiers in the city be low, will it exacerbate the low morale of the soldiers?

Even if the generals are sent out, even if the enemy's Gero army does not attack, what if the soldiers who go out to fight are defeated?

This is an opportunity, an opportunity with mixed advantages and disadvantages, if you lose, the morale of the soldiers will be low, if you win, the morale of the soldiers will be high.

Ji Zhan thought about it in his heart, but he still didn't dare to bet, because there were too many worries, and Ji Zhan didn't dare to bet on this battle.

Ji Zhan snorted coldly and commanded in a deep voice, "Don't pay attention to such a clown." ”

All the soldiers looked at each other, and the enemy was bullied to the door, why wasn't the marshal like this?

Listening to the provocative sound outside, the civil and military soldiers who could still scold them gradually lost their voices, leaving only the shouting and scolding of the Ge Luo soldiers outside.

In Qingshui Town, people come and go on the street, and it is very lively, just like Xiaobao when he first came.

After lunch, Xiaobao proposed to go out for a walk, and Ling'er agreed, the two of them wandered around the street one after the other, and they were silent to each other, Xiaobao was preoccupied and had no interest, and Ling'er seemed to know what Xiaobao was thinking, and did not ask but accompanied Xiaobao quietly on the street.

Xiaobao stopped suddenly, the crowd on the street surged rapidly, and Ling'er stopped with him, looking at the figure in front of him, and the hand that wanted to speak stopped in mid-air and finally fell.

Xiaobao didn't speak, and the two of them stood quietly like this.

"It's time for me to leave!" Xiaobao said slowly.

Ling'er covered her mouth and tears swirled in her eyes, and finally said it!, "Isn't it good to stay here?"

Ling'er asked tentatively, knowing that Xiaobao had to leave, but Ling'er still had some hope in her heart, hoping that he could stay.

Listening to Ling'er's slightly trembling words, Xiaobao was stunned and was about to turn around......

"Wait, don't look back, answer me like this, do you have to go?" Ling'er hurriedly stopped, she was afraid that she would see Xiaobao's face, afraid of her possessiveness, afraid that she would be confused for a while and leave Xiaobao, if this is the case, she must have no one else in this life.

"Sugar gourd, sweet and delicious rock sugar gourd!" Xiaobao was about to answer, but the sudden shouting in front of him attracted the two of them to look ahead.

Ling'er was quite pleased, this shout came really timely, and she was very afraid to hear Xiaobao's answer.

Ling'er ran forward quickly, grabbed Xiaobao's hand when he came to his side, and pulled him to run forward together.

Xiaobao was held by Ling'er's hand, his face was stunned, and he wanted to struggle, but his body did not move.

He looked at the woman in front of him, her long, supple black hair flowing in the wind.

Ling'er ran to the young man above and patted him on the shoulder, "Excuse me, we want two strings of rock sugar gourds!"

The young man turned around with a rock sugar gourd, and when he saw Ling'er and Xiaobao, he couldn't help but say, "It's you!"

The young man took down two strings of sugar gourds and handed them to Ling'er, and suddenly caught a glimpse of the two clasped hands, and complimented them with a smile, "As soon as I saw you that day, I knew that you were talented and beautiful, and you were really a perfect match, but I didn't expect to fall in love with each other in just a few days!"

The young man's words were exactly what Ling'er expected, but what about the reality? Ling'er lowered her head shyly, and Xiaobao on the side was about to explain, but looking at Ling'er's shy appearance, she didn't know how to explain it to him.

"How much?" Xiaobao wanted to change the topic, not wanting to dwell on it more.

The young man smiled and waved his hand, refusing, "Oh, no need, just let me send you two blessings." ”

"How can this be ......" Xiaobao rummaged through his pockets and was about to give him money, but the young man was already carrying the sugar gourd with his back to the two of them, waving his hand and walking forward.

Seeing that the young man had gone away, Xiaobao could only give up, a rock sugar gourd appeared in front of him, and Xiaobao turned his head to look at Ling'er on the side.

I saw that she was licking the sugar gourd, holding another string of sugar gourds in one hand and handing it to her, her big eyes and long eyelashes were blinking at herself.

Xiao Bao thanked him, took the rock sugar gourd handed by Ling'er, and licked it gently, "It's so sweet!"

Ling'er didn't answer Xiaobao, lowered her head and quietly tasted the rock sugar gourd in her hand without saying a word.

Xiaobao knows that he must cut through the mess quickly, and he must say the words in his heart, if he drags it out any longer, Xiaobao is really afraid that he will be unbearable!

"I'm leaving!" Xiaobao faced forward, but his eyes kept skimming to Ling'er beside him.

Ling'er's body trembled, all of this could not hide Xiaobao, who had been paying attention to Ling'er, but Xiaobao did not make a sound, but quietly waited for Ling'er to answer.

Ling'er raised her head and stared at Xiaobao's side face, her big watery eyes were full of mist, staring at the man in front of her without blinking.

"Have you ever been happy during the time you have been with me?" Ling'er gritted her teeth and lifted the doubts in her heart towards her.

After a long while, Xiaobao's answer came, and a simple happy sentence came into Ling'er's ears and hit her heart.

"Okay, but although the guard was refused to be in the mansion by me, Sainzhi denied that he was nearby, I can help you lure him away, but can you give me a hug?

Xiaobao was stunned, but her eyes did not dodge, Ling'er made such a solemn request, even if she was embarrassed, she must not dodge her gaze!

Xiao Bao sighed, smiled and tried to ease the oppressive atmosphere, using a pretended relaxed tone, "Isn't it just a hug between friends, even if you don't say it, I'm planning to do it!"

Xiaobao opened his arms slightly, and as soon as he took a step forward, he was pounced on by Ling'er, who hugged Xiaobao tightly, as if he wanted to merge with it, and buried his head in his warm chest.

Seeing Ling'er like this, Xiaobao sighed, "What's the matter, it's not that we won't see each other, we are still friends, if you have the opportunity to go to Ge Luo in the future, you have to treat me well!"

Ling'er's head was buried in Xiaobao's arms, and she responded lightly.

Ling'er pushed Xiaobao away violently, tears were already on her face, she stood on tiptoe and quickly kissed him on the cheek, then turned around and ran quickly into the distance.
