Before Li Xiaoren left, Song Song was already reluctant to part with it.
The front line is a long way to go, and it will take three to five months at the shortest, and it may take a year or a half if it is longer.
Song Song didn't say anything, but he secretly had a dream. He dreamed that Li Xiao was killed by someone on the battlefield. When the group triumphed, they brought a coffin back. Song Song couldn't help but help them in the dream. He cried until someone called him, "Song Er? Song Er? Wake up."
Song Song slowly opened his eyes, the pillow was wet with tears, Li Xiao held his wet face and frowned, "What's wrong? Have a nightmare?"
Song Song looked at him for a while, and after a while, he realized that he was dreaming just now, and nodded softly.
Li Xiao couldn't help laughing, wiped his tears, and said warmly, "What did you dream about?"
"...you can't say a dream, it will come true."
Li Xiao didn't force it either. He lay back and poked Song Song's tender face soaked with tears, and said, "It's almost dawn, sleep a little longer."
Song Song was still immersed in the panic of the dream just now. He rubbed against Li Xiao's arms, showing a little nostalgia between his movements. Li Xiao hugged him and asked, "Did you dream that I was dead?"
Song Song's face froze, and he said angrily, "Don't talk nonsense!"
His princess was quite superstitious.
Li Xiao bent his lips and said, "Okay, don't talk nonsense."
Song Song grabbed his clothes and felt uneasy in his heart, but Li Xiao couldn't help but teased him again: "Did you dream that I was lying in a coffin?"
Song Song was extremely angry, and suddenly twisted his fingers around his waist. Li Xiao was in pain, met his tearful eyes, and repented: "It's my husband's mistake, don't cry."
Song Song angrily didn't want to talk to him, and Li Xiao came to kiss him again: "Everyone said that dreaming of a coffin will lead to promotion and fortune. Maybe when I come back, I will have everything I want."
Song Song closed his eyes and wanted to really ignore him, but he was very hopeless and gave a dull response: "Well."
Li Xiao was about to leave, he didn't want to get angry with Li Xiao at this time.
The battle could not be delayed. Soon, the day when the troops set off, Song Song got up early in the morning and got him something to eat. When he came back, Li Xiao was sitting lazily beside the bed, and he half-squinted his eyes. To her own princess, "Song Er is really a good wife and mother."
Song Song glared at him, took a hand towel and let him wash it by himself, and said, "Eat something first."
Li Xiao accompany him to eat breakfast according to his words, Song Song brought heavy armor and put it on him again, Li Xiao opened his arms to watch him busy around him, and his cute little appearance made people's heart move.
Song Song was arranging his armor while brewing a parting emotion in his heart. It was sour. He blinked several times, barely suppressing the tears that came up, when he suddenly heard him shout, "Song'er."
Song Song snorted and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing." Li Xiao's eyes were gentle: "I just wanted to call you."
Song Song snorted, brought his saber, and hung it on him carefully, saying, "This armor is really heavy."
"It's not as heavy as Song'er." Li Xiao wanted to rub him in his arms, but thinking that the armor on his body was cold and hard, and the princess' body was limp, she would not move if she was uncomfortable.
Song Song laughed and said, "I will send His Highness there."
"Alright."
The two of them were riding a horse and riding a car. Song Song lifted the curtain of the car, his eyes fell on the man in front, his eyes couldn't help turning red, Li Xiao seemed to feel it, turned his face in front of him, Song Song hurriedly pulled the car He lowered the curtain, took a breath, raised his hand and carefully wiped away the wetness from the corner of his eyes, showing a smile, and opened the curtain again to face out—
But all of a sudden, a big face came over.
He shivered in fright: "You..."
Li Xiao was riding on the horse, parallel to the car driver, just now his face was sticking to the outside of the car curtain. Seeing that Song Song was frightened, he retracted his body and said with a smile: "Crying again?"
"No."
Li Xiao seemed to be used to leaving home for a long time and didn't show any reluctance. Song Song didn't want to let himself affect him.
But on the next road, he kept pulling the curtains open, his eyes quietly fell on Li Xiao's body, the more he looked, the more intense his emotions became. .
He knew that he shouldn't think like this, but at this moment, something really came out. It would be nice if the person who went there wasn't Li Xiao. It would be great if Li Xiao could accompany him all the time.
The army outside the city was already ready to go, and the rest of the princes also came to see them off. All the way to the Shili Pavilion outside the city, Li Xiao finally looked at Song Song's carriage and horses: "Okay, let's go back."
From the look he didn't care about in the morning, a rare emotion finally emerged. Song Song hesitantly stuck his head out of the car, the corners of his eyes and nose were flushed, his face was as tender as if it had been washed with water, and Li Xiao was serious. His expression softened slightly. He dismounted and walked over. Song Song was also helped to get out of the car and listened to him: "Just come here, don't go any further."
Song Song nodded, hesitated for a moment, and took out a sword ear with a red jade ornament from his sleeve: "I just made it up two days ago, it's not very beautiful, this jade pendant was found from the wedding ceremony, it has no special meaning. , that is, the pattern is auspicious and safe, so please bring it with you, Your Highness."
In fact, he wanted to give Li Xiao all the commemorative things, so that he could think of himself when he saw it, but he was bullied at home, and all the valuable things on his body were swept away, and the accessories he wore since childhood have long been Missing whereabouts, I picked out a few in the wedding ceremony, and finally chose this color that looked the most comfortable.
The jade pendant said it was red, but in fact it had some moist orange-yellow, like the color of the rising sun. At a glance, the color distribution is not very uniform and not correct, but the jade quality is excellent, whether it is looking or touching , are very moist, like cream.
Li Xiao bowed his head, Song Song had come over to hang it on his sword, and said, "Be careful on the road, lord."
He took two steps back and smiled at Li Xiao. The latter's eyes gradually turned dark, as if something was brewing madly. Song Song always felt that in a second, he might see water in Li Xiao's eyes. Gloomy scenery.
"wait me back."
"Yeah." Song Song smiled again, Li Xiao stretched out his hand and rubbed his face, the reluctance in his heart became more and more intense, but after all, he turned around, stepped on the horse, and swung his whip away.
Song Song chased after two steps uncontrollably, then Li Yang walked towards him and said, "Don't worry about the emperor's sister-in-law, the emperor's brother will return safely."
Song Song nodded, staring at the disappearance of Li Xiao's figure, before saying goodbye to everyone and entering the car.
As soon as he sat in, his face suddenly became wet.
On the day he was taken away by Li Xiao, what he thought was that he was going to climb up to Li Xiao and give birth to a child. In any case, he could no longer continue the old path of his previous life.
When he got married, what he thought was to respect Li Xiao as a guest, and his life was uneventful. He would fully perform his duties as a princess, and put Li Xiao first in everything. When Li Xiao said he liked him, he just felt lucky, Li Xiao said he was fond of him. When he was with him, he still felt fortunate... He always wanted to repay him with something in order to be able to match his favor.
He thought that his relationship with Li Xiao was just an ordinary partnership. Of course, from the point of view of their names, everyone was not as close as they came, but it only stopped there.
He thought that when Li Xiao left, he could manage everything in an orderly manner, and when he came back, it would be best if nothing changed in the palace.
But now I found out that he is not a qualified princess, and he can't take care of his emotions.
He suddenly missed Li Xiao, his eyebrows, his voice, his broad shoulders and warm arms.
He began to worry about Li Xiao, whether he would be cold, hungry, sick, or injured, although he knew that Li Xiao was very good and cautious, and he also had memories of his previous life, but This worry did not disappear because of reason.
Not long after Li Xiao led the army to leave the capital, the people sent by the Prime Minister's residence got the news: "It is confirmed that they have left the capital, and the Jinwu Camp is completely empty."
"Next, it's enough to divert Zhao's forces away." Qin Ning pondered and said, "What are you staring at Song Song?"
Song Song seemed to be ignorant of how the dark tide was surging behind his back. Li Xiao's departure didn't seem to have any effect on him.
Qin Ning has not been able to see the Empress conveniently since the last time, so the Empress could only use the fact that Prime Minister Qin had not recovered from her condition and often asked for edicts to come to the mansion, the siblings gathered together, Qin Ning's expression was a little dignified: "Li Xiao is leaving, It is impossible not to increase the number of government soldiers to protect Song Song, but the palace is as usual, and the dark guards have followed him away, and Song Song is still only surrounded by Bai Yan."
"Is this a fraud?" the queen said, "but Li Xiao really left."
"Maybe it's just Li Xiao's trick, it's deliberately so that we don't dare to act rashly."
They had just finished talking, when someone suddenly came in with news from outside, Qin Ning listened, and laughed: "Your Majesty Princess Xuanping has entered the palace, saying that Li Xiao is not here, and wants him to enter the palace regularly to accompany the emperor. Grandma speaks."
The queen immediately understood: "Every time? This is to protect him in disguise."
If you go to the Empress Dowager's palace regularly, if Song Song fails to go in the event of an accident, the palace will immediately find out that something is different, and the Empress is a little disgusted, saying: "That old man will never die."
"There's no rush to kill him. As long as it's a big deal before Li Xiao comes back, why won't Song Song die?"
Qin Ning's large-scale use of the government's funds quickly spread to Xu Kou's ears. She is a cautious and careful woman. Even if she has a bad temper, she has a very careful mind. If there is any movement in the accounts, she can always see at a glance. come out.
"Second brother suddenly spent so much money, what did he do?"
Qin An was very afraid that she would be angry, but he had to answer: "Big brother only said he wanted money, but never said the purpose."
Xu Kou felt strange, Qin Ning used too much money these days, she became suspicious, so she asked the maids beside her to pay more attention, but she got the news: "In the past two days, people often come and go in the back door of the mansion. , I took a sneak peek, and the boots of those people seemed to be important officials in the court."
Xu Kou's face changed suddenly.
She couldn't bear it, and sat in the room with a dignified expression. When Qin An came back from outside, she ordered the door to be closed.
As soon as Qin An saw her closing the door, her heart skipped a beat: "Keer... what's the matter?"
"Your eldest brother has spent so much money recently, but he is forming a party for personal gain?"
She got straight to the point and saw Qin An's strange face, she was furious and rushed towards him in two steps. Qin An shuddered and hurriedly covered her head. Move, what do you want to do?!"
"This, I don't know about this... Madam, Madam calm down."
Xu Kou grabbed him: "Are you really ignorant, or are you pretending not to know? Qin An, your eldest sister is a lunatic, your second brother and father are two fools, you can't mix with them, do you know? !"
"I know it in my heart." Qin An also knew that she was worried about herself, so she hurriedly responded softly. Seeing him like this, Xu Kou felt anxious and angry, and she said, "From now on, if your second brother wants money, let him come. Find me."
Qin An looked hesitant, and Xu Kou's mind suddenly reappeared in the Queen's words that day: "What are you hiding from me, if you don't tell me, I will go from house to house to bring back the gifts your elder brother sent out. Thick-skinned, not afraid of shame."
"Absolutely not!"
Xu Kou looked even colder: "It seems that you really know their plan."
"I… "
"What are you doing? Make it clear!!"
Qin An was forced to frown: "Li Xiao is becoming more and more powerful now, and the second brother said that Li Xiao must not be allowed to ascend the throne."
"What does he have to do with you and me when he ascends the throne? We are both businessmen, that is..." Xu Koulue was a little hard to explain: "What your brother and sister did, we will not be implicated."
She is telling the truth, there is vengeance and vengeance, as long as she is with Xu Kou, His Majesty's affection is there, Li Xiao will not hurt her, and naturally he will not touch Qin An, so for her, Qin Ning and Whatever Qin Qinghe did, they would suffer the consequences and have nothing to do with their husband and wife. Even if they lost their current power, as long as their family survived, it would be a great thing.
Qin An's eyes flashed with remorse, and he didn't seem to have imagined that the matter would end up in the current field. He said with difficulty: "My lady doesn't know something... It would be fine if His Royal Highness King Ping ascended the throne, but the problem is that he loves Song Song so much, and he will ascend to the throne someday. , After Song Song said, he will never let you and me go."
Xu Kou was full of doubts in her heart: "What do you mean by this?"
One month after Li Xiao left, Song Song went out to check the shop. When he went out, he suddenly encountered a woman who gave him a deep salute: "Nujia Xu Kou, I have seen His Royal Highness Princess Ping."
