Qin Wan stood in the distance, watching Yan Chi get closer and closer.
She looked at Yan Chi's eyebrows greedily, and before she could react, she was tightly clasped in her arms.
The familiar voice, the familiar embrace, the roar in Qin Wan's ears suddenly dissipated, leaving only the sound of Yan Chi's breathing and heartbeat.
The high night sky is bright with stars, and the lights of Bailuzhou behind him are dimly lit. Qin Wan couldn't help but hug Yan Chi's waist tightly when he raised his hand. Everything disappeared at this moment, and only Yan Chi's voice calling her name was in her ears. Qin Wan pursed her lips, and somehow the tip of her nose became sour.
Yan Chi hugged Qin Wan tightly, couldn't help kissing Qin Wan's hair twice, "Wanwan, I'm back."
Qin Wan rubbed his cheek against Yan Chi's chest, and gave a soft "um".
Feeling Yan Chi's strong arm, the soreness in her heart slowly dissipated. As soon as she raised her eyes, she suddenly saw Bai Feng from Yan Chi's shoulder, and beside Bai Feng, there were four or five dressed People in armor, after these four or five people, there are thousands of pairs of eyes looking at her. Qin Wan was shocked, his face suddenly lit up, she pushed Yan Chi, and quickly retreated from Yan Chi's arms. out.
"Why did you bring so many soldiers and horses?"
Taking advantage of Yan Chi's tall stature to cover her, Qin Wan quickly straightened out the messy skirts, and asked urgently in a low voice.
Seeing her in a hurry, Yan Chi couldn't help laughing, and trimmed her temple hair again, then took her hand and turned around, "Follow me."
Bai Feng and the others kept looking at Yan Chi and Qin Wan, and when they saw them approaching, they couldn't help but look serious.
Yan Chi took Qin Wan by the hand, Qin Wan straightened his back slightly under everyone's gaze, and in the dim light of the snow, he couldn't help but amazed everyone again.
It has been known for a long time that Prince Rui is married to the concubine, and she is also Princess Yongci, but they don't know that the rumored Princess Yongci is actually such an alluring beauty!
Yan Chi took Qin Wan by the hand and walked slowly to the front of the team. Before he could speak, a tall and thin young general stepped forward with a smile, "Yu Qi pays respects to the princess!"
"Meet the princess..."
"Meet the princess!"
As Yu Qi saluted, all the generals around him clasped their fists together, Qin Wan looked at the corners of their lips slightly curved, "There is no need to be too polite, you have worked hard from afar."
Her face was calm, but Qin Wan felt a little shy in her heart. At that moment, the surprise of Yan Chi's sudden return made her unable to care about anything else. Naturally, she didn't think that it would be difficult to be so close to Yan Chi in front of so many people. Involuntarily clenched Yanchi's hand.
Yan Chi has always been reticent, but Yu Qi is a talkative one. Qin Wan just said politely, but he said, "It's not hard work, it's Your Highness who has worked the hardest. Your Highness hasn't slept for several nights, but he said he must hurry back, so You don't have to worry about it, princess."
In front of so many people, and how many people Yu Qi's words were going to misunderstand, Qin Wan turned to look at Yan Chi.
Yan Chi stood beside her calmly, and said solemnly, "Okay, we will continue to march according to the original plan. When we arrive at the place, we will rest for a day and wait for my news."
Yu Qi responded neatly, turned around and trotted a few steps, then got on the horse's back.
He waved the command flag on the horse's back, and soon, all the horses behind him got on the horse. Yu Qi turned the horse's head, bowed his hands to Yan Chi and Qin Wan, and then raised the whip to spur the horse away. After leaving, thousands of soldiers followed him. The fire dragon that frightened everyone left outside the east gate of Bailuzhou not long after, and the remaining nearly a hundred people were still waiting. These people were Yan Chi's relatives. Wei, of course he will stay with Yan Chi in Bailuzhou.
Qin Wan didn't know where Yu Qi was going, "Where are they going?"
Yan Chi looked to the southwest of Bailuzhou, "Although there is no garrison camp in Jianzhou, there are still 10,000 troops stationed in Qingheyuan in the southwest."
Qin Wan's heart trembled, "This is to..."
"No, but when we talk to the prefect of Jianzhou, we must always have a bargaining chip."
Qin Wan instantly understood what Yan Chi meant, and he felt relieved, and asked again, "Then you want to stay?"
Yan Chi immediately turned to look at her, "I promised you, I will never break my promise."
After many days apart, Yan Chi looked at Qin Wan's eyes with an inexplicable intimidating power, and Qin Wan's heart felt relieved when he heard these words.
"Okay, that's good..."
Qin Wan never thought that Yan Chi would come back, and now that he returned as agreed, Qin Wan's heart was as sweet and warm as honey, and the eyes that looked at Yan Chi became more affectionate, and Yan Chi tightened Qin Wan's hand , just as he couldn't help pulling her into his arms again, footsteps suddenly sounded behind him.
Yan Chi looked back, and saw Lu Youxin, Lu Jingxiu and others coming over.
Yan Chi had no choice but to stop thinking and stepped forward, "Aunt—"
The joy in Lu Youxin's heart was a little bit worse than Qin Wan's. Seeing Yan Chi standing upright, her eyes were slightly red, "I thought you were going to stay in Qianzhou for the New Year, but I didn't expect you to come back, hurry up, hurry up Come in, come in together, you'll be fine when you come back, Guan'er has been working very hard these days, and I'm worried."
Yan Chi still didn't know about the murder that happened in the garden, so he only looked at Qin Wan questioningly at this moment, Qin Wan smiled and shook his head, Yan Chi had no choice but to stop asking for the time being, and when he turned his eyes, Yan Chi saw Lu Jingxiu, who came to Bailuzhou earlier, Yan Chi had never seen this person before. Although he left, Lu Youxin was very relieved. In his imagination, it was very safe for Qin Wan not to see any outsiders in the past few days, and would not reveal his identity. But right now There was an extra strange young man
Yan Chi was suspicious at first, but when he looked at Shang Lu Jingxiu, he saw that apart from surprise and disbelief, Lu Jingxiu's eyes also showed a hint of repulsion towards him. Yan Chi was not sensitive, but keen, and realized this However, Yan Chi didn't take it seriously either. Anyone who saw someone with thousands of people appearing outside their house in the middle of the night would probably be afraid, so it's normal...
Seeing Yan Chi looking at Lu Jingxiu, Lu Youxin hurriedly said, "This is the third child's child, named Jingxiu..."
Said that Lu Youxin hurriedly looked at Lu Jingxiu, "Jingxiu, this is Prince Rui."
Lu Jingxiu stared blankly at Yan Chi, her mind was chaotic and chaotic.
He is the eldest son of the Lu family's third wife, and he is considered the proud son of heaven in Lanzhou. After he grows up, he makes friends and makes friends, and he has seen many powerful people, but he has never seen someone like Ruo Yanchi. He thought he was tall, handsome, bold and powerful, but when he saw Yan Chi Gao sitting on the horseback, he felt inexplicable fear in his heart. His handsomeness was only brought up by his family's wealth But Yan Chi's handsomeness is different, his facial features are as sharp as knives and axes, with a kind of royal dignity, his body, standing there, there is a kind of intimidating power like cast steel , not to mention his awe-inspiring momentum with so many soldiers and horses!
He had never seen it before, and he didn't dare to think about it. He only knew that the moment he saw Yan Chi, he suddenly understood the absurdity of the past few days.
He didn't understand why he always felt nervous and panic when he saw Qin Wan, and he couldn't figure out how to get Qin Wan's attention, but now he saw Yan Chi and he just realized that there really is a match made in heaven. Qin Wan usually has an independent attitude with everyone, but when she was nestled in Yan Chi's arms, she was so natural and appropriate, and now the two of them stand holding hands, like the sun and the moon Xiangyao, and he, is just a dim star falling in the sky.
Lu Jingxiu's throat was blocked, and his fingertips felt cold. Seeing Yan Chi's eyes looking over, he knew that he should smile and greet him like he used to make friends, but he couldn't move at the moment, he looked straight at Yan Chi , there was a slithering thought amidst the depression and self-ashamedness in my heart——
Yan Chi is indeed the true pride of heaven, but that's only because he was born in the imperial family!
And he himself is not bad, he is also the fifth son of the Lu family who is praised by everyone in Lanzhou, and he is also...
The only spark in Lu Jingxiu's heart was extinguished when Yan Chi's eyes looked over. He was flustered and nervous, but Yan Chi's eyes were so determined and profound yet unfathomable. There was clearly no malice in Yan Chi's eyes, but he felt that I was suddenly lowered in the dust, and Yan Chi was the king with the world's dignity in his heart. Something in Lu Jingxiu's heart was broken, and he even wanted to turn around and run away for a moment...
"Rui, Your Highness Prince Rui—"
After all, Lu Jingxiu finally came to his senses. He took a step back and cupped his hands in obeisance. His mind was spinning all over the moment. In the eyes of others, his reaction was just a little slow. Lu Youxin shook his head helplessly, and hurriedly continued, " Have you never rested on the road? Come on, let's go back, and I will tell the kitchen—"
"Auntie, don't be busy. I haven't closed my eyes for several nights, and I can't eat anything right now. Just let Wanwan take care of me. I also want to have a good talk with her. As for my soldiers, please ask Auntie to take care of them. "Yan Chi spoke softly, and looked away from Lu Jingxiu.
When Lu Youxin heard this, he smiled and said, "Okay, that's fine, then at least I'll let the kitchen deliver some refreshments, and I won't arrange anything else right now. We can have a New Year's Eve dinner together tomorrow, you My aunt is so happy to be back!"
Yan Chi responded with a faint smile, and then took Qin Wan towards Han's Hall. Before he could walk a few steps, he put his arms around Qin Wan's waist, bowed his head and said something to her. Chi leaned back with his arms bent, and looked sideways at Yan Chi's cheeky smile.
Fu Ling and Bai Ying were also very happy, and they also followed not far away at the moment. Lu Youxin smiled and watched the two go further and further away, and said happily, "Their relationship is really good, Qin Se and Ming are two hearts. Xiangyue, if my sister sees it in the spirit of the sky, I think she will be very happy."
After saying this, Lu Youxin turned around and discussed with Bai Feng the residence of the accompanying soldiers, only Lu Jingxiu was left standing where he was.
He watched Qin Wan and the two go away with gloomy eyes.
He still felt a little guilty at first, but when Yan Chi glanced at him just now, he clearly regarded him as a weed on the side of the road, and didn't see him at all.
Lu Jingxiu's heart fell to the bottom, and she didn't know whether to feel humiliated or sad.
