"A sneeze!"

On the imperial street of the capital, Gu Qingtang sneezed. She rubbed her nose, looked up at the sky, and said to herself with a smile: "The situation has changed. If you go back too early, there will be a **** disaster. Well, I still go around. Let’s go shopping.”

The young man smiled and asked: "Prince-in-law, why don't we go to Chunfeng Tower to listen to music?"

Gu Qingtang thought for a while, took out a piece of silver from his purse, and handed it to the boy, "Okay, you can listen to it for me. If there is a girl who is good-looking and can sing well, tell me her name." Write it down and tell me.”

The young man was startled and said, "Prince-in-law, aren't you going?"

Gu Qingtang smiled and said: "I'm looking for a woman outside less than three days after my wedding, and the princess won't cut off my head and play it with a ball? So, the best way to get the best of both worlds is for you to go for me." After that, she I couldn't help but urge, "Go quickly, I'll hang out here for a while, and I'll go back when the sun sets."

"Yes, thank you, Prince Consort!" The young man bowed happily, turned around and ran away without a trace.

Gu Qingtang put away the money bag, glanced at the alley on the left with a half-smile, and walked straight into the alley on the right.

A sneaky vegetable picker also turned in.

Gu Qingtang turned his head slightly and glanced at the distance of the mysterious man behind him from the corner of his eye. He smiled quietly, pretended not to know that someone was following him, and led the man picking vegetables around left and right for a long time, and finally came to a dead end. stopped.

The alley is really quiet, with a lot of moss growing on the corner. There is only one small door open here, and I don’t know whose back door it is.

"Dog officer!" The man picking vegetables suddenly threw away the load of vegetables and took out the dagger from his sleeve, "You brought it here yourself, let's see who can save you!"

"Tsk, tsk." Gu Qingtang turned around and smiled, "Don't say it so unpleasantly. What do you mean, I sent it to your door? This word is not nice at all in my hometown."

"Go to hell!"

"Slow!"

Gu Qingtang stumbled and dodged the man's knife, and his vest hit the small door heavily, "It's obviously me who brought you to the door today, but you still want to kill me. If you get scolded by the lady later, don't blame me. ! General Qin!"

"What did you say?" The man was stunned, "My lady?"

Gu Qingtang smiled lightly, adjusted his clothes, and knocked on the small door, "I originally wanted to hide it from you for a while, but you have been haunted for the past three years, and you almost hurt the little princess last night. , so I had to make this decision."

"Creak——"

The small door suddenly opened, and a gentle and approachable lady in green appeared in sight. She smiled and nodded slightly at Gu Qingtang, "Master Shaofu, you are here!"

Gu Qingtang smiled bitterly and pointed behind him, "I'm not the only one here. Look, who else did I bring?"

"Mother...mother..." The man's voice suddenly trembled, and he just couldn't call out the word "mother".

Gu Qingtang couldn't help but laugh and said: "General Qin, you are a powerful cavalry general. Is it really okay to call your wife like this?"

"I..."

"Ms. Sir!" The lady in green recognized the man with a vicissitudes of life as the heroic general Qin Zhongyu from three years ago. She rushed forward excitedly and looked at him with surprise and joy, "You are still alive. Live!"

Gu Qingtang stretched out and said, "Seeing you husband and wife reunited, I suddenly missed the little princess. It seems I should go back early."

"Wait a minute!" Qin Zhongyu suddenly called out in a trembling voice, "Gu Qingtang, what is going on? Three years ago, on the day of the eldest princess's wedding, a thief tried to rob the princess and seriously injured her. I For committing the crime of inadequate protection, the late emperor clearly gave poisonous wine to our Qin family... I still remember that you were the one who brought the poisonous wine!"

Gu Qingtang smiled mysteriously, "Since I can let you survive, Mrs. Qin can naturally survive too." After saying that, he smiled at the lady in green and said, "It's a rare reunion between Mrs. Qin and General Qin, so you guys should take care of yourself." Let’s talk about it.”

"Master Shaofu, thank you." Mrs. Qin's eyes were red and she wanted to kneel down to Gu Qingtang.

Gu Qingtang quickly helped her up, "This world is always like this. If one person makes a mistake, many unrelated people will have to bear the consequences. I just can't stand it. Okay, okay, don't thank me. As she said, she smiled at Qin Zhongyu, "General Qin, please don't come to my consort's house to fight and kill me again this time. Do you know that I have to find a way to let you escape every time?" I’m really tired.”

"You..."

"But," Gu Qingtang smiled suddenly, "I really thank you for last night."

Qin Zhongyu was stunned, "Qin is really ashamed..."

"Haha, the spring peach last night was really delicious." Gu Qingtang's face deepened, and there was a hint of aftertaste in his smile, "In a few years, it shouldn't be the spring peach, it should be... what could it be? What?"

For the first time, Gu Qingtang couldn't find a suitable word in his heart.

"Spring peaches?" Mrs. Qin thought for a while, "If Mr. Shaofu likes it, I bought some fresh peaches yesterday."

"Ahem." Gu Qingtang smiled awkwardly, "No need, I'd better keep the spring peaches from Mrs. Qin's house for General Qin. Well, on the contrary, I thought of something. I wonder if Mrs. Qin would like to give it to me. ?"

Mrs. Qin nodded and said: "Master Shaofu is the benefactor of our couple. Just say whatever you want."

Gu Qingtang smiled and said: "A few days ago, I remember my wife said that your puppy gave birth to cubs?"

"Well, I haven't been weaned yet."

"Why don't you give me one today?"

"Okay!"

So, when Gu Qingtang came out of the deep alley, there was a little black dog in his arms, whining for its mother.

She touched the little black dog tenderly, "Dog, oh dog, it's up to you to make Aning calm down today!" After saying that, she happily hugged the little black dog and walked towards it. Go to the Prince Consort's Mansion.

"The Prince Consort is back!"

When Xiao Xi walked into the wedding hall with a smile to report back, Yin Ning, who had been waiting for Gu Qingtang for a long time, stood up from the couch and gritted his teeth and said: "How dare you come back!"

"Ah! Where did the puppy come from!" Xiao Xi, who was waiting at the door, exclaimed, and Gu Qingtang appeared in her sight.

"Shh-" Gu Qingtang signaled her not to speak, pointed at the little black dog running in panic on the ground looking for his mother, and gave Xiao Xi a wink.

Xiao Xi felt her heart pounding. How could she not understand what the consort meant? The little black dog must be the gift that the prince-in-law brought to the princess today. The princess is really lucky to meet such a considerate prince-in-law!

Yin Ning quickly walked to the entrance of the palace and looked at Xiao Xi, "What's wrong?"

Gu Qingtang has quietly ducked behind the pillars, not wanting Yin Ning to find him.

Xiao Xi gently picked up the little black dog and brought it to Yin Ning, "Princess, look, what a cute puppy."

Yin Ning's eyes flashed, and the anger she was planning to unleash on Gu Qingtang instantly collapsed when she saw such a cute creature. She hugged the little black dog with a smile and touched its head, "Why did it suddenly appear? Where’s the little black dog?”

Xiao Xi scratched her head and felt a little flustered. If she directly said that it was sent by the consort, and the princess suddenly became unhappy again, what should she do?

"Xiao Xi?" Yin Ning suddenly realized something. She took a few steps back warily, suddenly glanced at the pillar, and then looked at Xiao Xi, "Is this puppy brought back by Gu Qingtang?" ”

"This..." Xiao Xi trembled and didn't know how to answer the princess for a moment.

Yin Ning lowered his head and looked at the puppy in his arms, but the smile on his face did not diminish a bit, "It seems that he knew that I would deal with him today, so he didn't dare to come. Ha, finally he also I will be afraid of me once, so I can sleep comfortably alone tonight!"

Xiao Xi breathed a long sigh of relief, "But princess, according to law, tonight we have to summon the consort..."

"It's not that I didn't call him, it's that he didn't dare to come." Yin Ning said this calmly, and stroked the puppy softly, "Don't be afraid, when you get to this palace, you won't be able to come." Make you hungry."

"Princess..."

"Xiao Xi, go get some milk. I like this puppy. From now on, you will be called Azhong! Yes! Ah Zhong, Ah Zhong, you grow up quickly and protect me from now on. Let’s get rid of those sycophants outside!”

"Yes."

Xiao Xi exited the wedding hall, only to see the consort standing by the pillars with a knowing smile.

She walked over quickly and whispered: "This slave is clumsy and didn't know how to help the prince-in-law to smooth things over."

Gu Qingtang shook his head and smiled, "No, this is just right. Go find some food for Azhong."

"The prince-in-law won't go in to accompany the princess?"

"No, it's rare to see her so happy, I'll just watch from a distance."

Quietly, Yin Ning's soliloquy sounded in the Xi Palace.

"Looking at your dirty look, you must have been bullied by bad people, right?"

"Don't be afraid, come on, eat this first."

As if it was a lifetime ago, those familiar memories came back to me. Eight years ago, on the streets of Beijing, there was once such an innocent and lovely little girl in brocade clothes who came up and said these words to a dirty little beggar.

Gu Qingtang still remembers that the moon was very round that day, and under the clear light in the sky, a small hand like a jade carving handed over a piece of lotus heart cake——

The moon is round in the sky and crooked on the ground.

She will never forget the crescent-shaped birthmark on the inside of her little hand, let alone the crescent-shaped smile of that little girl.

"Don't be afraid, the bad guys have run away and you are safe!"

"May I ask my benefactor...what's his name?"

"My...my...name is Aning..."

"Aning..." Today, eight years later, Gu Qingtang muttered, couldn't help laughing, and murmured in his heart: "This time, I will protect you, no one can hurt you. ”
