Love Affairs in Chang’an

Chapter 69: Jump into the river bravely

Views:

The pavilion in the Royal Flower Garden was as lively as ever, full of laughter and joy. Li Zhi and Li Mingda giggled from time to time as they listened to Qin Mubai telling the story of "Pleasant Goat and Gray Taro" vividly. This laughter full of childishness and innocence put Qin Mubai and a group of wet nurses and maids in a good mood, and they laughed together.

At the corner of the entrance to the Royal Garden, Princess Gao Yang looked at the scene in the pavilion from a distance. Listening to the harsh laughter, she felt an unprecedented and strong sense of loss and frustration.

Reaching out and quickly picking off a flower, Princess Gao Yang held it in her hands and tore it apart until the petals flew to the ground.

"Hateful! Why does everyone only like Pheasant Nu and Si Zi, these two little brats who don't understand anything! The same is true for my father, and so is that damn smelly military academy!" Princess Gaoyang whispered to herself in a hateful voice. , like a curse, "No one has ever rejected me, but when I asked him to teach me how to play pipa, he refused and made a fuss about me bullying those two little guys... I can't stand it, but my aunt can't!"

A palace maid next to her whispered in a stunned voice: "Your Royal Highness, it's - 'It's tolerable, but what's intolerable'? Your Majesty had already corrected it last time, and also issued an oral instruction not to allow the princess to say that in the future, so as not to cause any harm. Royal dignity. And... ordered the servants to monitor at all times. "

"Shut up!!!" Princess Gao Yang became angry immediately. This time, she finally found a punching bag. She reached out and grabbed the palace maid's ear, and cursed bitterly, "If you want to show off your ability, if you want to show off your ability, you will threaten me if you have the same virtue as that damn military academy Qin Mubai." Make me angry!"

"Well...princess, please spare your life, this servant will never dare to do it again!"

"You will not be allowed to eat for a day. Go back to Yeting and kneel down!"

Princess Gaoyang scolded the maid away, but she was still angry. Looking at Qin Mubai and others in the pavilion from a distance, jealousy burned in his heart.

At this moment, Qin Mubai's story came to an end. Li Mingda clapped her little hands and giggled for a while, then blinked her eyes curiously and asked, "Village chief, Sister Seventeenth Emperor wants you to teach her how to play the pipa. Can you play the pipa?"

"Yes!" Qin Mubai replied.

"Can you play as well as your father?" Li Mingda asked with a smile.

"Of course it's not as good as your Majesty's." Qin Mubai said with a smile.

"Then why does my father say that General Qin's pipa skills are the best in history and the greatest master today?" Li Mingda blinked and looked at Qin Mubai seriously and asked.

"This... is of course His Majesty's flattery for me, which is a bit ridiculous."

"What does it mean to praise?"

"..." Qin Mubai was speechless for a moment, and the palace maids and wet nurses beside him laughed.

Li Zhi took the words and said: "Sister, you said yesterday that you wanted to learn pipa. When your mother comes back from heaven one day, you will play it to her. Now let's learn it together!"

"Okay!" Li Mingda clapped his hands happily and cheered, "Village chief, please teach us how to play the pipa!"

"Okay!" Qin Mubai agreed with a smile and said to the maid next to him, "Go and get the pipa."

In the distance at the entrance of the Royal Garden, Princess Gaoyang took all this in her eyes and listened to her ears. Her anger finally reached a critical point and broke out!

"Qin Mubai, keep this in mind for this princess! We are not done yet!"

This shout was quite loud. Qin Mubai and others looked at the entrance of the Royal Garden and saw Princess Gao Yang running away angrily, leaving behind a figure full of resentment.

Qin Mubai's heart skipped a beat: Well, Princess Gaoyang has really been angered now. It is better to offend a gentleman than a villain, not to mention that she is such a strong, wild and quirky little woman like Princess Gaoyang... I have to think of a way to coax her.

In the morning, Qin Mubai taught Li Zhi and Li Mingda to learn pipa for a while, and then sent the two princes to study in the afternoon. Princess Gaoyang did not appear again until the end of the day. When Li Shimin came back, everything was normal. It seemed that she didn't go to the emperor to make any false accusations.

This actually made Qin Mubai feel a little unsure. According to Princess Gaoyang's character, if even the revenge move of complaining to the emperor is useless, it means that she has thought of other more clever ways.

What could be more powerful than complaining to the emperor

On the way out of Daming Palace, Qin Mubai was thinking all the way. Now that the enemy is hidden and we are clear, it is really dangerous. Who knows what Princess Gaoyang who dares to do anything will do.

When he reached the imperial bridge, Qin Mubai stopped and couldn't help but frown. Princess Gaoyang stood by the river, leaning against the white jade lion sculpture on the bridge like a martial arts master, with her hands folded in front of her chest and squinting at him coldly.

She was alone.

But that look... was really full of resentment, resentment—and murderous intent!

"Ahem! Your Highness, are you waiting for a humble position again?" Qin Mubai pretended to smile casually, went up to her and bowed.

Princess Gao Yang did not speak, but still stared at Qin Mubai with that look.

The murderous intent becomes stronger.

What are you doing, making a martial arts movie

Qin Mubai couldn't help but be happy: "Your Highness, what do you want to do? No matter how sharp your eyes are, you can't kill anyone."

"Hmph..." Suddenly, the corners of Princess Gaoyang's lips curved in a slight arc, she sneered, and then jumped into the river unexpectedly!

thump!

In an instant, Qin Mubai, who was still four or five meters away from her, even if he reacted quickly enough and almost pulled away to catch her at the same time, he could only catch the last piece of clothing. The piece of clothing broke into pieces with a sharp tearing sound and remained in Qin Mubai's hands, but he failed to catch Princess Gao Yang and let her fall into the river.

"This little bitch is crazy!"

The Yuhe River needs to be dredged and sewage discharged every year, but it is deep enough!

Without thinking carefully, Qin Mubai jumped into the river - it was important to save people!

After Princess Gaoyang fell into the river, she was indeed frightened, and she threw herself desperately and shouted for help. It was obvious that she didn't know how to swim at all. After falling into the water, she screamed loudly in panic, but was choked by the water.

Fortunately, Qin Mubai was not far from her, and he reached her side with a sudden thrust. He quickly moved behind her, held his chin in one hand and protected her waist with the other, and dragged her backwards to swim to the shore.

At this moment, several palace maids emerged from nowhere. They were so frightened that they lost their minds and shouted loudly: "Help! Help! Someone is trying to kill the princess. The princess has fallen into the water!"

"Shut up, you bitch!" Qin Mubai yelled angrily. But despite scolding, saving people is always the most important thing. So she still dragged Princess Gaoyang to swim to the shore.

Although Princess Gaoyang had deliberately planned to frame Qin Mubai, she became helpless after falling into the water. Being dragged backwards by Qin Mubai like this, his hands and feet were still thrashing about wildly, causing large splashes of water, and his screams and shouts were even more indiscriminate.

"You stinky man, don't even think about looking down on me!"

"Help! Ugh—I don't want to die!"

"I told you to yell!" Qin Mubai was annoyed. He freed up his hand and knocked out Princess Gaoyang with one palm strike.

Several palace maids on the shore were immediately frightened, and they were all dumbfounded - "This, this guy actually dares to hit the princess?"

"You know nothing!" Qin Mubai angrily yelled while paddling hard, "If I don't knock her out, both of them will drown!"

The person who fell into the water was extremely panicked, and his survival instinct burst out with great strength. They often mess around with their hands and feet and even entangle the rescuer to death. When Qin Mubai led Baiqi to train, drowning rescue was an important course. Who wouldn't know this

Finally, Qin Mubai dragged Princess Gaoyang to the shore. The four palace maids ran over in a panic, and they all cried out of fright.

"Go away, don't cause trouble!" Qin Mubai coaxed them away, panting heavily and observing Princess Gaoyang carefully. Although her pulse was a little disordered and her breathing was rapid, she was obviously just frightened and nothing serious. But she was thrashing around like that, as if she had choked on a lot of water. If a large amount of water is choked into the lungs, it may leave serious sequelae or even be fatal!

"Little girl, if you want to frame me, you don't have to do this, right?" Qin Mubai cursed several times, and without hesitation, he bent down and started artificial respiration!

"Oh my God!!!" The palace maids went crazy, stamping their feet and shouting: "Someone, please come quickly!"

A group of soldiers had already heard the news and ran nearby. They were shocked when they saw the scene in front of them - Qin Mubai was lying in front of the fainted Princess Gaoyang, mouth to mouth - it seemed that he was being rude and frivolous to her in public!

"General Qin, stop it!" The soldiers did not dare to be vague now, and neatly drew their swords and pointed them at Qin Mubai.

"Why don't you pull him up quickly! - The princess is innocent!" The maids stamped their feet and shouted loudly.

"Shut up!" Qin Mubai took the time to shout, "I am urgently rescuing Princess Gaoyang. If anyone stops her, you will be responsible for anything that happens to the princess later!"

After saying that, he kept moving and kissed me again.

"This..." The sergeants were dumbfounded, and one of them whispered, "General Qin should not be so stupid, he would know in public... Confident Princess. I heard that Baiqi did have some strange rescuing techniques during training. This What does mouth-to-mouth transplantation look like...artificial respiration!"

"Then let's... stay calm and wait and see what the outcome will be. Even if we want to take someone, it won't be later than this moment."

"That's fine."

At this moment, Princess Gaoyang, who had been in a coma, coughed violently several times and spit out a large puddle of bitter water, and woke up.

The first moment she opened her eyes, she saw a hazy figure in front of her. Princess Gaoyang vaguely felt a sense of joy in escaping from death. Her heart was frightened and she was even more sensitive and frightened. She suddenly shouted: "Ah - ghost Ah!" Pushed Qin Mubai away suddenly.

"Wake up, wake up!" All the sergeants and maids let out a long sigh.

Qin Mubai was pushed by her and sat down on the ground, shouting angrily: "Have you had enough fun?"

This angry shout was like a bolt from the blue, and everyone on the spot was stunned. Princess Gao Yang took a few turns to look at the soaked Qin Mubai in front of her. She suddenly came back to her senses and thought about what was going on. Her spirit was violently shaken, and she burst into tears with a loud "Wow".

"Why are you so stunned? If you really think that I am frivolous and disrespectful to the princess, kill me now. Otherwise, get out of here!" Qin Mubai yelled at the group of soldiers with anger in his chest that had no place to vent.

"Uh... I'll take my leave..." When the military academies saw Qin Mubai looking so obligated and furious, they felt a little frightened. Thinking back to the scene just now, even a fool would understand that it must be Princess Gaoyang who is playing tricks. Furthermore, no matter how stupid or naive, no one would be so stupid as to openly molest the princess in a place like Daming Palace. Just now, Qin Mubai must have been saving people...

After the soldiers left, Princess Gaoyang was still sitting on the ground crying, and several palace maids hurriedly came forward to comfort her.

"Comfort her, let her cry." Qin Mubai scolded angrily, "If you don't cry when you are frightened, you will easily lose your mind and go crazy."

All the palace maids had no idea and had no choice but to stand aside.

Princess Gaoyang cried loudly for a while, and finally stopped gradually, her mind returned to normal, and she felt regret and fear in her heart.

Originally, she just wanted to scare and frame Qin Mubai by jumping into the river. Unexpectedly, she was much less courageous than expected. She lost all her strength as soon as she entered the water and almost drowned.

A wave of fear came over her heart, and because her whole body was wet from the water, Princess Gaoyang shivered.

"Are you still stunned? Why don't you take off your own clothes and put them on the princess?" Qin Mubai scolded.

The palace maids suddenly came to their senses and began to get busy.

After they paused for a moment, Qin Mubai stepped forward, sighed and said: "Your Highness, what can't you say about it? Isn't it fun to play suicide? Even if you are dissatisfied with me, there are ten thousand people." , why should you ruin yourself?”

"I'm just not convinced, unwilling, and unwilling to lose to you all the time! I want to subdue you with my own hands and make you surrender to me..." Princess Gaoyang sobbed softly, wiping the tears from the corner of her mouth, and finally gave up. What was in my heart spoke out.

"I never thought about fighting with you." Qin Mubai shook his head and smiled helplessly, "You are the master and I am the minister. I am a big man and you are a little girl. Do I need to fight with you?"

"But you just can't get along with me!" Princess Gaoyang was frightened, her temper became much smaller, and she sobbed aggrievedly, "You asked me, a princess, to apologize to you and admit your mistakes, and you also abused my maid - Beating the dog and bullying the master! Well, even if these are not your original intentions, I don’t blame you - but why are you willing, so happy, and taking the initiative to teach the pheasant slave and the pipa? I worship you so sincerely. You are a teacher and you still refuse to teach me? Can I be convinced or not angry?"

"Oh, so you are jealous? Okay, this is my fault. Why don't I apologize to you and teach you how to play Pipa in the future? I didn't say not to teach you at the time. It was you who insisted on scaring Prince Jin. Crying and threatening me... Besides, how big of a deal is this? Do you need to threaten me with death?" Qin Mubai wiped the water on his face and couldn't help laughing.

"Don't laugh!" Princess Gao Yang stamped her feet shyly and anxiously, suddenly burst into tears and ran away.

The palace maids panicked and chased after her. When Qin Mubai saw this scene, he shook his head and smiled: This little girl is not jealous of me, but of Li Shimin, right? Seeing that Li Shimin was so kind to Li Zhi and Li Mingda, she felt a sense of crisis and felt uneasy. I just wanted to compete for favor and get the same treatment as them, but I didn't know how to start, so I blindly targeted me... Why was I so miserable and got into trouble with such a little evil star for no reason
