Accompany you to laugh three thousand times
Qi Yan: "Your Highness..."
"Tuktuktuk." A knock on the door interrupted Qi Yan's words.
Palace maid: "Your Highness, Consort, the hot water is ready."
Qi Yan: "Go to the kitchen and ask the cook to prepare some ginger soup. His Highness just got caught in the rain."
Palace maid: "I have already ordered to go, I respectfully invite Your Highness and the concubine to move to Tangquan."
There is a Tangquan Hall in this area of the Weiming Palace. Starting from this side hall of Qi Yan, you don't need to walk through a few corridors with an umbrella.
Nangong Jingnv got up and walked towards the door, remembering that Qi Yanye couldn't see and turned around and took her hand: "Let's go."
Qi Yan: "Thank you, Your Highness."
The two wet people held hands and walked out of the door of the dormitory. The maids who were waiting outside the door first put two cloaks on the two of them, and then hung their heads in unison—see no evil.
The Weiming Palace was rebuilt according to the East Palace of the Prince of the previous dynasty. The Shang Emperor of the former dynasty attached great importance to enjoyment, so the facilities in the Weiming Palace are complete and luxurious. There are five Tangquan Palaces located in the east, west, north, south and central. The Tangquan on the Qiyan side It is the largest among the five, with two soup pools, "Qingluan" and "Huofeng", which are just right for Nangong Jingnu and Qi Yan to bathe at the same time.
At the entrance of Tangquan Hall, Qingluan and Huofeng are separated by a wall.
Qi Yan: "Your Highness, please."
Nangong Jingnv: "Qingluan Pond draws living water from mountain springs. Even if the palace staff keep pouring hot water into it, the water temperature is still low. The walls of Huofeng Pond are made of large pieces of warm jade, and the bottom is even connected. In the dark passage of fire, the water temperature is higher."
Qi Yan heard that Nangong Jingnu wanted her to choose first, so she said: "Then let's choose Qingluan."
Nangong Jingnv shook her head: "Let's ask your concubine to go to Huofengchi. Ben Gong's heart has been hot these days, and Qingluan is better."
Qi Yan: "Yes."
The two entered the soup pool respectively. The two soup pools, one ice and one fire, were separated by a wall. If you listen carefully, you can even vaguely hear the sound of water next door.
Qi Yan dropped the door lock, put the wet clothes on the screen, and slowly descended into the soup pool. Sure enough, as Nangong Jingnu said: The temperature of the water in this Fire Phoenix Pond is very high, instantly dispelling the chill caused by the rain, and making the pores of the whole body clear.
Qi Yan leaned against the warm pool wall and snorted comfortably, and slowly closed her eyes.
Suddenly, a sound of water came through the wall behind Qi Yan, perhaps the reason why Tang Chi was quiet and empty, and the voice next door was clear.
The sound of the water was rushing or slow, and it was big and small. A picture of a beauty bathing suddenly flashed in Qi Yan's mind. The protagonist of the picture was Nangong Jingnu.
The blood all over her body rushed to her face, Qi Yan felt a little dizzy, and suddenly the picture in her mind moved, and many body movements changed with the sound of water: Nangong Jingnu's long hair like a waterfall was on the water. Spread out, the pool water just reached the position of her chest, and the white and round scenery surfaced halfway...
The beauty picked up a handful of clear spring and sprinkled it on her face. The water droplets swept across her dark eyebrows, long and fine eyelashes, and outlined the soft contours of her face. The smooth and white chin dripped and returned to the soup pool.
"Hmm!" Qi Yan opened her eyes abruptly with a blushing face. With this cough, the sound of the water next door slowed down, and then it was basically inaudible...
Qi Yan picked up a handful of water and put it on her face, raised her hand and rubbed her nose embarrassingly: Is this a guilty conscience
Nangong Jingnv next door was enjoying the bath, because she didn't hear any sound from the opposite side when she entered the pool, so she thought the sound insulation of the wall was not bad, but there was a clear cough halfway...
She stood in the middle of the soup pool for a while in embarrassment, and then slowly took a step forward. Under the premise of trying not to stir up water splashes... She walked to the corner of the soup pool and sat down with her arms around her chest.
Qi Yan knew that Nangong Jingnu must be uncomfortable, so she quickly finished washing, went ashore and changed into clean clothes and went out of the soup pool.
Arriving outside the door, Qi Yan cupped her hands at the gate of Qingluan Pond: "Your Highness, I will return to the main hall first."
When there was no sound at all, Nangong Jingnu let out a long breath, but she lost her interest in taking a bath and called Qiu Ju to come in to serve.
The storm was still raging outside, and it didn't stop for a while as Qi Yan said.
Nangong Jingnu stood in the corridor and looked out. The dark clouds covered the sky and the sky was connected by the rain.
The rain fell on the slate outside the corridor, and the water splashed into the corridor.
Qiu Ju half blocked in front of Nangong Jingnu and whispered, "His Royal Highness, go back quickly."
After entering the dormitory, Nangong Jingnu asked Qiu Ju to drink a bowl of ginger soup to take a rest. When the rain stopped, she would tell her whether to return to the main hall.
The lights in the side hall are brightly lit. There are twelve small holes on the top of the long-bright lantern with a square slit. The wick that has been ignited protrudes from the inside. There are two bowls of steaming ginger soup on the table. Qi Yan sees Nangong Jingnv coming back to take the initiative. Serve ginger soup: "Your Highness, drink it while it's hot."
The fingertips touched, the throbbing touch, Qi Yan quickly retracted her hand and turned her eyes away, Nangong Jingnu also lowered her gaze and cast her gaze on the steaming ginger soup.
The two in the hall didn't speak, only the sound of rain kept coming in through the ceiling. After drinking the ginger soup, Nangong Jingnu sat up at the round table, her hands changed a few positions and finally folded on her legs, looking a little cramped.
The heavy rain trapped her in the side hall, accompanied by Qi Yan, who she had never been willing to face alone.
As soon as he raised his eyes, he met those amber eyes, which showed an exotic beauty against the background of the orange candlelight.
Nangong Jingnu's heartbeat slowed for a while: "What do you think Ben Gong is doing?"
Qi Yan replied softly, "There are only ministers and His Highness in this hall."
Nangong Jingnu closed her eyes and asked, "What do you see?"
Qi Yan: "His Royal Highness's facial features are softer than before. If His Highness goes out in men's clothes again, I am afraid that he will be recognized."
Nangong Jingnu gave Qi Yan an angry look: "You haven't changed at all."
Qi Yan hooked the corner of his mouth: "This minister has also spent a lot of time explaining it to his colleagues."
Nangong Jingnu looked at Qi Yan again and asked, "What's the explanation?"
Qi Yan: "All the adults in the same dynasty have grown beards, but the ministers are different, so it is natural to explain."
Nangong Jingnu also chuckled, she couldn't imagine what Qi Yan would look like with a beard, would she become a serious old pedant
Qi Yan's eyes were bright: "Your Highness also wants the minister to grow a beard?"
Nangong Jingnu shook her head: "This is your own business, you can decide for yourself."
Qi Yan: "Thank you, Your Highness, this minister is no longer afraid of what others say."
…
After some communication, the previous embarrassment was finally broken. Nangong Jingnv proposed to play chess. After a game of chess was played for two hours, the sky outside was completely dark, but the rainstorm did not stop at all.
Qiu Ju came to ask whether Nangong Jingnu would stay in the side hall tonight, but the latter pursed her lips and said nothing.
For a moment, many thoughts flashed in Qi Yan's mind, especially when she saw Qiu Ju signaling her gaze, she had mixed feelings.
She turned her head to look at Nangong Jingnu, the other party's expression was a little unnatural.
Today, Qi Yan has to admit one thing: she is ashamed of Nangong Jingnu.
On this road of revenge, Qi Yan never regretted it.
This way, I have exhausted my own organs, and I have been with the enemy, and my hands are covered with blood...
She has a heart of compassion, and her conscience is often uneasy, but she has never regretted it. She must liquidate the debts made by the Wei Kingdom.
But Qi Yan often didn't know how to face the girl in front of her.
The Nangong family owed the Qiyan royal family a blood debt, but they owed Nangong Jingnu a love.
Blood debts must be repaid with blood, but how do I repay this relationship
He pleases her, seduces her to have feelings for him, then plots against her, and finally... wants to live up to her and even kill her.
In the past three years, Qi Yan has also grown a lot, and many issues that he did not dare to think about before have now been clearly seen.
"Your Highness... stay."
Nangong Jingnu's breathing stagnated, and she turned to look at Qi Yan with complicated eyes.
Qi Yan endured the pain in her heart, and said softly, "I haven't spoken to Your Highness for a long time, so please ask Your Highness to stay when the Lord of Heaven is beautiful."
Nangong Jingnu remained silent, but her relaxed posture revealed acquiescence.
Qi Yan glanced at Qiu Ju, who smiled and hit Wan Fu and backed out.
…
At night, Nangong Jingnv and Qi Yan came to the bedroom.
In front of Nangong Jingnu, Qi Yan took off only her undershirt, and then took the initiative to turn her back.
Nangong Jingnu bit her lip, raised her hand and pulled off her belt to remove her complicated palace attire.
Qi Yan: "My minister is going to blow the lamp, how about your Highness holding the minister?" Before waiting for the other party to reply, Qi Yan took the initiative to take Nangong Jingnu's hand, feeling the tide in the other party's hand and feeling guilty again.
After all, they have been married for six years.
The two were lying side by side on the step bed, Nangong Jingnu turned her back to Qi Yan: "Go to bed."
Qi Yan was silent for a long time, and took the initiative to move in the direction of Nangong Jingnu: "Your Highness."
Nangong Jingnu was suddenly a little nervous and replied in a low voice.
Qi Yan: "In the past three years, I have often reflected on myself. I... owe Your Highness too much."
Nangong Jingnv bit her lip, it was a thorn in Nangong Jingnv's heart - Xiaodie.
Qi Yan: "I'm sorry, Your Highness."
After saying this, Qi Yan's eyes turned red, and tears flowed silently.
This apology contains too much, but it's not just for Xiaodie, the weight of the apology is too light... Qi Yan knows that she owes Nangong Jingnu her life is not clear.
Nangong Jingnu finally turned around when she heard the choking behind her. She couldn't see her fingers in the hall, but she knew that the people around her were crying.
Qi Yan did not deliberately cover up her sadness, and the sad cry went straight to Nangong Jingnu's ears.
Nangong Jingnu's eyes were also a little wet, she knelt on the bed and touched Qi Yan's hand in her palm.
"Qi Yan..."
Qi Yan suddenly pulled Nangong Jingnv into her arms, tightly hugged the opponent's waist and buried her face in Nangong Jingnv's neck, hot tears dripped onto Nangong Jingnv's skin.
Qi Yan: "I'm sorry, Your Highness... I don't expect Your Highness to forgive me, but..."
Tears also overflowed from Nangong Jingnu's eyes. She let Qi Yan hold her and muttered, "How can you...with her, you..."
Qi Yan: "This minister should die."
Nangong Jingnu took a heavy bite on Qi Yan's shoulder: "You really deserve to die."
Qi Yan: "Then ask Your Highness to push the minister to Caishikou to be executed."
Nangong Jingnu: "...So, it's too cheap for you."
