Every New Year's Eve, we have to watch the New Year's Eve, but it's impossible to keep it all night. After the hour, the sound of firecrackers in the capital gradually subsided, and the princess' residence fell into silence.
After Gu Jiao came out of the bathroom after washing, Xiao Heng was sitting on the bed reading a book before he slept.
When the Princess Mansion was originally built, fire passages were dug under the ground of the various courtyards to connect to the openings outside. In winter, simply burning firewood at the entrances of the caves would allow the heat to flow into the house through the fire passages.
Commonly known as earth dragon heating.
The room was very warm, Xiao Heng was leaning against the head of the bed, one leg was stretched lazily and the other was bent carelessly.
He only wore a thin white nightgown, and the neckline of the nightgown was not trimmed, but spread out a little casually, exposing his delicate collarbone just right, above which was a sexy Adam's apple.
Even the throat is so pretty.
He looked very focused, and people couldn't help but feel a breath of abstinence.
Gu Jiao's eyes straightened.
Xiao Heng turned a page of the book, as if she didn't know she was coming, and continued to pose.
Gu Jiao's saliva, who didn't know it, was about to flow down, Xiang Gong is so handsome anytime, anywhere, I really want to fall!
and many more.
There is a baby in the house.
Gu Jiaosha looked at the cradle beside her.
Huh
empty.
"Where's the baby?" She asked Xiao Heng blankly.
"Oh, you're done washing." Xiao Heng closed the book gracefully and calmly, as if she had just come over. His slender fingertips, like jade, landed on the booklet, lining the top-quality water-printed paper. grass scum.
Gu Jiao took a breath.
Xiao Heng turned his head slightly, the angle was perfect, his eyes looked at her tenderly, and he said without changing his expression: "King Kong said that he wanted to sleep with his little nephew and niece, I carried the baby over, there is a nurse who is on duty at night, don't worry."
Xianggong's voice is also so nice, crisp and numb, making people want to get pregnant.
Gu Jiao came to the bed, bent her knees and climbed onto the bed, propped up her small body with one hand, leaned in front of him, and took his book with the other.
Xiao Heng looked at her helplessly, smiled, and asked knowingly, "What's wrong?"
Gu Jiao said seriously, "I want to eat you."
The corner of Xiao Heng's lips twitched, holding back his smile, he looked at her very calmly: "On the carriage, didn't you say you were sleepy?"
Gu Jiao shook her head like a rattle: "I'm not sleepy anymore."
Xiao Heng's cold fingertips pressed lightly on her moist lips, and said in a hoarse voice, "That's what you said."
"Yeah!" Gu Jiao widened her eyes and nodded her head!
Xiao Heng stroked her delicate little cheek, rolled over and pressed her under him, lowered his head and kissed her lips: "Tonight, don't sleep."
…
The shy movement stopped as it approached dawn.
Gu Jiao lay in his arms like a lazy cat with contentment and fell asleep.
Xiao Heng looked at the person in his arms dotingly, and couldn't help but kissed her swollen lips, and then hugged her and fell asleep with her.
The two of them slept directly until the third day.
It was Xiao Heng who woke up first. He vaguely felt that someone was pressing the quilt while he was half asleep. He moved his body and slowly opened his tired eyes.
Unexpectedly, what I saw was a cute little head.
He was shocked on the spot, and the whole person woke up instantly!
"Yiyi?"
He recognized his sister.
Xiao Yiyi sat cross-legged on the quilt of the two, holding a small pillow of her own in her arms, resting her cheeks with one hand, and looked at her brother without blinking.
Seeing this scene early in the morning, Xiao Heng was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.
He hurriedly lifted the quilt and took a look inside. It was okay. Before going to bed, he was afraid of catching a cold, so he dressed himself and Gu Jiao.
He settled down, sat up from the quilt, tucked the quilt for Gu Jiao, who was still sleeping, and asked Xiao Yiyi, "Why are you here? Still holding this?"
He pointed to her little pillow.
Xiao Yiyi chirped: "Because from today, I'm going to move here and live with my brother and sister-in-law!"
He frowned strangely: "What do you mean?"
Xiao Yiyi stood up, stood upright on the bed, and bowed deeply to Xiao Heng: "Mother is going to find Daddy, and I will ask my brother and sister-in-law to take care of it in the future!"
Xiao Heng: "...!!"
On the first day of the new year, his mother, who has followed the rules all her life, actually left her family to search for her husband thousands of miles away? !
What happened to this world! ! !
…
There is very little snow in the eastern part of Zhao Kingdom, and this year is an exception. In addition, there have been wars, natural and man-made disasters, and the life of the people has suddenly become difficult.
Princess Xinyang travels in a micro-clothing. She sits in a carriage that looks inconspicuous, and from time to time she opens the car window to see the sights along the way.
The closer it gets to the border, the more depressed the streets are, the doors of shops are closed, and people begging can be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys, and some even freeze to death.
"Princess, don't look at it." Yu Jin advised.
Princess Xinyang sighed: "Is this how wars really work?"
She is a noble princess of the royal family. She grew up in the capital of Haiyan and Heqing. The fief she owns is also the most prosperous and stable place in Zhao Kingdom. She has never experienced the cruelty of war.
Yu Jin closed the car window for her. She knew that the princess looked inhuman, but she was actually kind-hearted. When she first encountered the victims, the princess would always give generously.
It's just that with more and more victims, their entanglements become less and less, and they can no longer help these victims.
Yujin didn't want the princess to feel depressed, so she quickly changed the topic and said, "Princess, we have arrived in Li County, which is the county seat closest to the border. If you go 30 miles to the east, you can reach Lord Hou's military camp."
Princess Xinyang snorted calmly.
Yu Jin secretly smiled.
The carriage continued to move forward. It was almost noon, and they were hungry. Yu Jin asked the coachman to stop at a small inn that looked fairly clean.
The conditions here are incomparable to those in the capital. The water you drink is sandy, the rice you eat is rough, and even the salt used in the dishes is coarse salt, and the taste is slightly bitter.
Yu Jin gave Princess Xinyang a chopstick of vegetables: "If I knew it was so hard, I wouldn't advise you to come here."
Princess Xinyang didn't say anything, frowned and started eating.
Halfway through the meal, there was a commotion on the street outside, followed by the crying of women and children.
"Go and see what's going on." Princess Xinyang said.
"Yes." Yu Jin left the inn, and after a while, came back with a sullen face, and said helplessly to Princess Xinyang, "A beggar startled the horse for grabbing a steamed bun that fell on the ground, and the horse's owner whipped him a few times with a whip. The women and children were people passing by and were accidentally hit by the whip."
"Are there any injuries?" Princess Xinyang asked.
Yu Jin said: "The beggar was beaten up, and he was seriously injured. The woman and child were slightly injured."
As soon as the voice fell, a woman's grievance and grief cries came from outside: "How can you beat people in the street? Is there still a king's law?"
"Go and have a look." Princess Xinyang put down her chopsticks and put on her veil in time.
As soon as she stood up, a male guest in his early thirties at the adjacent table persuaded leisurely: "Listen to the accents of the two of you, you must be from other places? In addition to the officials, there are still people who are willing to come. Li County, it's really rare. I advise you two to keep your busy schedule and save yourself from getting involved!"
The old man at the other table also spoke earnestly: "Yeah, you can't afford to offend the one outside, so don't worry about it."
Yu Jin asked politely, "This old gentleman, do you know the origin of the group of people outside?"
The old gentleman sighed: "They are not from the Zhao State, but from the Dongyi people."
The world is divided into six parts, but in addition to the Six Kingdoms, there are many large and small tribes and small clans, such as the Turks in the northern part of the Jin State, and the Dongyi in the eastern border of the Zhao State.
Yu Jin asked suspiciously, "Isn't Dongyi colluding with bandits and fighting with the imperial army? Why can the Dongyi people be domineering in the county seat of our Zhao Kingdom?"
The man in his early thirties said, "It's time to negotiate!"
Princess Xinyang frowned: "Negotiate peace? Who made the decision!"
The emperor did not issue this imperial decree!
Her aura was so strong that she intimidated everyone present for a while.
The old gentleman was the first to come back to his senses. He looked up and down at Princess Xinyang and Yu Jin. The two of them were dressed in simple clothes, but their bearing was extraordinary.
Impossible, how could the nobles of the capital come to such a place
He calmed down and said, "Of course it's what Xuanping Marquis meant."
Yu Jin retorted: "How could Marquis Xuanping negotiate peace with a small barbarian tribe? It is Marquis Xuanping's way to settle their tribe!"
The old gentleman didn't answer, but the man in his early thirties opened his mouth and said with a sneer, "Isn't this because Dongyi presented a beautiful woman to the Duke of Xuanping? It is said to be the pearl of Dongyi, and the king of Dongyi loves him the most. The youngest daughter of the Dongyi clan is sitting in the carriage escorted by the group of people outside. Now you know why you are not allowed to die?"
Yu Jin looked at her master worriedly: "Princess..."
Princess Xinyang's eyelashes trembled, and a chill was radiating from her body.
Yu Jin looked at the few people and said sternly: "Marquis Xuanping already has a wife, he will not do anything to hurt Princess Xinyang."
The man smiled: "Marquis Xuanping is romantic by nature, and his relationship with Princess Xinyang has long been inseparable. Besides, the little princess of Dongyi is so beautiful, no man can be moved when he sees it."
Princess Xinyang went out with a dark face.
"Pub... Madam! Madam!"
Yu Jin took out a piece of broken silver from her purse and put it on the table, hurriedly chasing it out.
Both the old gentleman and the man looked at the silver, paused for three seconds, then stood up in unison to take the silver as their own, and the little two quickly flashed over and shoved the silver into their arms one step at a time.
Then he took out a dozen copper plates and ran to the counter: "The shopkeeper, the bill is over there."
The old man and the man pouted in disappointment.
The Dongyi people left, the women and children left, and the injured beggars were helped by their companions.
Princess Xinyang looked at the street that had become empty again, and a nameless fire in her heart burned even more vigorously.
She got into the carriage with her skirt on.
Yu Jin followed in trepidation, sat down beside her, and asked tentatively, "Princess, don't take it to heart, they don't know Hou Ye, they made it up out of thin air."
Princess Xinyang said coldly: "Is his temper still fabricated?"
Yu Jin smiled dryly and said, "Isn't that when your husband and wife were not in harmony before, don't you want to be a real husband and wife with him?"
Princess Xinyang said coldly: "I haven't said that I want to start over with him now."
Yu Jin whispered: "Oh. Well, according to this, it's not too much for Lord Hou to mess around outside."
Princess Xinyang threw the knife in one eye.
Yu Jin's hair exploded, and he said quickly, "But he will never do this!"
Princess Xinyang closed her eyes: "Let's go."
Yu Jin asked in a low voice, "Are we going to continue to the military camp?"
Princess Xinyang said indifferently, "Go back to the capital."
Yu Jin's face changed: "Princess!"
Princess Xinyang leaned on the cushion on her back again, closed her eyes, and said, "I have made up my mind, so I don't need to say more."
"...Yes." Yu Jin responded bravely.
What a pity.
It's only the last step to see Lord Hou, why did this go wrong
The driver turned around and walked back.
Yu Jin repeatedly persuaded Princess Xinyang not to change her decision.
It's not surprising to think about it, it's not easy for the princess to put down her face and go all the way to find the border gate. Suddenly, when she hears such news, it is inevitable that she will retreat in her heart.
Lord Hou, Lord Hou, it's not that I don't help you, it's God's will.
However, just as the carriage was about to leave Li County, something unexpected happened—they went to the inn to change horses, and they actually met the Dongyi people, and they also fell in love with the same horse.
The little princess Dongyi stepped out of the carriage wearing a veil. The girl's body was slim, and she exuded a youthful vigor from head to toe. She also had a pair of moving eyes, looking forward to the flying of the gods, and the autumn water was shining.
She is indeed the number one beauty in Dongyi.
Princess Xinyang was wearing a bamboo hat and a long veil, revealing only a faint outline of her face, and her face could not be seen clearly.
The two women met on a narrow road at the inn.
The little princess Dongyi said arrogantly: "I want this horse, you can choose another horse."
Princess Xinyang said sternly: "Everything must be said first come first, I want first, you choose another horse."
The little princess Dongyi said, "Is it first-come, first-served? I have more money, and as much as you pay, I will pay double!"
Princess Xinyang's eyes were cold: "It's amazing to be rich, and it's amazing to be young? You have money, do you think I don't have it?"
What does it have to do with youth? This man speaks strangely.
The little princess Dongyi looked at her suspiciously, stretched out her hand, and snorted: "If you have money, take it out!"
Yu Jin whispered beside Princess Xinyang: "Princess, our investigation is almost exhausted."
The little princess Dongyi said to the postmaster at the station: "Give her back her money! I bought the horse!"
"Yes! Yes!" Yicheng couldn't afford to offend Xuanpinghou's "sweetheart", and hurriedly stepped forward to return the two ingots of silver to Yujin.
Princess Xinyang's aura was full: "You dare!"
Yicheng was so frightened!
The little princess Dongyi said angrily, "How fierce are you! Do you know who I am?"
Princess Xinyang sneered: "I know, the Dongyi daughter who posted Xuanping Hou is just a small tribe, and she dares to call herself a princess.
"You!" Little Princess Dongyi got angry, "I don't hit women! You kowtow to me and admit your mistake! I'll forgive you!"
Princess Xinyang said coldly, "It's almost as if you kowtow to me and admit your mistake!"
The little princess Dongyi stomped her feet in anger, and said in a coquettish voice, "No toast, no penalty! Come on! Teach me both of them!"
Eight Dongyi guards swarmed up and surrounded Princess Xinyang and Yu Jin.
The little princess Dongyi smiled proudly: "Are you afraid? It's too late to beg for mercy now—"
Halfway through the last word, a strong figure descended from the sky.
No one could see how he moved. In the blink of an eye, eight Dongyi guards fell to the ground!
The little princess Dongyi looked at the bodyguard who fell to the ground in disbelief: "This is impossible, this... you... what kind of sorcery you have used! Give it to me!"
The remaining twelve people also rushed towards Princess Xinyang.
But where are these people's opponents of Long Yi
Long Yi beat them to the ground looking for teeth without much effort.
Long Yi flashed in front of the little princess Dongyi. The little princess Dongyi looked at this masked man with only an afterimage in horror, and was so frightened that she could hardly speak.
Long Yi rolled his eyes, raised his finger, and flicked her forehead lightly, and she fell to the ground.
Princess Xinyang walked towards her step by step, looking at her condescendingly: "Now, do you want to rob someone else's things?"
Princess Dongyi wiped her tears and said angrily, "Who are you? Why are you bullying me!"
Princess Xinyang looked at her sternly: "I am Princess Xinyang of Zhao Kingdom, the wife of Marquis Xuanping, so what's wrong with bullying you!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly felt two gazes that could not be ignored fell on her body.
She looked back subconsciously, only to see Marquis Xuan Ping standing in the open space not far away, staring at her dumbfounded.
This is the word count for two shifts.
