lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of the Spring Festival Banquet!
Listening to her relaxed tone, it was as if she was completely relieved from the moment she got the letter of divorce. She didn't avoid him, and asked him to stay for a while.
Jiang Xuanjin pursed her lips, pinching her cuffs tighter and tighter.
Do you want him to stay to see the moat flowing through the water, or do you want him to stay to see her wedding with Lu Jingxing? It's okay for him to leave, if he is there and watching, I can't guarantee what he will do.
Is this also a kind of revenge?
The coolness penetrated through the window, making him stiff with the cold, but the person in front of him seemed to have noticed something. He opened the window to see and exclaimed "Wow".
It's snowing!
The first-tier city where there has not been rain or snow for many years, there was a little snow, and the crystal white falling down the window sill, she pinched her sleeve to pick it up, turned her head with a smile, and handed it to him: "Look!"
In a trance, Jiang Xuanjin felt that she seemed to have returned to the main building of Moju. The separation and tearing for so long was just a nightmare. When she woke up from the dream, she was still by his side, laughing and making noise, wanting to watch this deep winter snow scene with him. .
He stretched out his fingertips dazedly, and lightly touched the bright white on her sleeve, but when he touched it, the tiny white pieces melted away.
The eyelashes trembled, Jiang Xuanjin pursed her lips, and the ink filled her eyes.
Untouchable, it's gone if you touch it.
Withdrawing his hand behind his back, he tightened his jaw, and wanted to say coldly, "His Royal Highness, please come back", but the words were all on his lips, and after thinking about it, he swallowed it back.
He has a long rest of his life to be able to hold back slowly. Now, why not indulge yourself more?
Li Huaiyu seemed not afraid of the cold. Xue Shang, who had been standing by the window for a while, felt not enough, and wanted to climb on the soft couch next to him so that he could stretch his hands farther.
Jiang Xuanjin endured it again, but still couldn't hold it back, stepping forward and holding her down: "Don't move!"
Huaiyu raised her eyebrows, turned her head and smiled: "Why? Afraid that I might be hurt? Didn't you say that it is the child of Shopkeeper Lu? Why are you panicking?"
With a stiff face, Jiang Xuanjin said coldly: "There are a few short legs on the soft couch, and there are many water chestnuts. If your Highness is hurt, shopkeeper Lu will definitely be counted on my head."
"Maybe something." Huaiyu waved his hand coolly, "He can't do anything to you."
"...Even if he is not so good, there are still Wu, and Chijin, and you who are full of Princess Mansion, I can't afford to commit crimes."
"Your Majesty is humble." Apricot eyes squinted, and Huaiyu said jokingly, "You are really tempted, not to mention my princess mansion, I can't keep the entire first-tier city."
After speaking, we must continue.
However, as soon as he touched his knees on the soft couch, a turquoise sleeve robe suddenly appeared in front of him.
Jiang Xuanjin's movements were very restrained, with her arms crossed in front of her collarbone, pinching her shoulders, and salvaging her whole body.
With a smile, Li Dagang took a few steps back and pressed his chest.
A slight vibration came from the vest, and she could hear the sound of his inhaling lightly, and it disappeared in one click. She stood straight and put her hands down.
"Your Highness can't stand steady?"
"Yeah." Huaiyu sighed, "Since her belly is big, her feet have become swollen, and her waist and back hurt every day, and she often can't stand steady."
If Qing Si heard this, she would vomit blood. Still unsteady? Who ran faster than rabbits on the street last time? !
Jiang Xuanjin listened, but her jaw was tight, she looked down at her, wanted to reach out and help her, but didn't know where to put her hand.
The person in front of him suddenly "ah", his heart jumped and frowned: "What?"
Hugging her belly, she sat on the soft couch with a strange expression, frowned in silence.
"Speak!" Jiang Xuanjin stood in front of her with a calm expression on her face. When she spoke, the fear in her tone could not be hidden.
Huaiyu slowly raised her head and pointed at his stomach.
Jiang Xuanjin didn't care too much, so she put her hand up and probed.
This belly seems to be much stronger than he thought. It is heavy and bulging. As soon as he touches it, the contents inside move, and the little touch just falls on the palm of his hand.
Jiang Xuanjin shook, and hurriedly retracted her hand, calmly saying: "I will let Chengxu send a doctor."
"Hey, no need." The expression returned to normal, Huaiyu said, "It's the fetal movement, it's normal."
What do you normally do with that expression? ! Jiang Xuanjin turned her head and glared at her.
Li Huaiyu smiled hippiely: "I am scared every time my fetus moves, for fear that it will suddenly burst into my stomach and come out."
This kind of fear must be tasted by him to make her feel comfortable.
Jiang Xuanjin was silent. After a while, she let out a sigh of relief.
Injustice.
The urgent letter from eight hundred miles was sent back to the main city of Ziyang within a day. Lu Qing was dug out from the bed, thinking that something big had happened, so he hurriedly took the letter and opened it. .
However, after reading the letter, his mouth twitched, and he couldn't help throwing the letter paper to the ground: "If you want a doctor girl, you can use 800 li to expedite? Is he really not dead?"
The subordinates reported weakly: "The king uses a Chollima, and I am not exhausted."
Lu Qing went sideways with cold eyes, and his subordinates immediately silenced.
"Let the one named Qi Jin set off today, find a few people to escort, and ride over on horseback."
"Yes."
After finishing the order, Lu Qing walked back and forth in the hall with his hands on his back. He was so angry that he almost smashed the floor tiles. He turned and said: "Take me every day. If I don’t come back every day, I don’t want to come back. It’s like If he wants to make his home in the first-tier cities, he is not happy to let him direct the first-tier cities to Ziyang, he doesn't know what he is thinking!"
"As long as he is busy, Lao Tzu is not busy? Lao Tzu wants to marry a wife. He is so busy that he can't get out of the gate of the county guard mansion. Who is Ziyang Jun!"
The silent subordinates couldn't help but speak again: "The Lord has prepared you many portraits of aristocratic ladies, and they are all in your study."
Lü Qing stared: "What's the use of holding a portrait? He just gave me a beautiful woman!"
The subordinates are silent, thinking that you are just calling out so much. You are really a beauty. With your temperament, you must not dare to enter.
However, he was still very considerate. When Doctor Qi Jin set out, he asked Master Lu's words to be brought to the king.
Qi Jin got on the horse tremblingly, very excited.
Counting days, Madam’s body should be six months old. She has not received any news before, and has planned for the worst. As a result, Jun Shang suddenly summoned her.
Doctors are everywhere. If you have to give a reason to let her go, it is that the king knows that his wife is pregnant, and asks her to go and ask her guilt.
It's okay to ask for a crime! Qi Jin thought with red eyes, as long as Junshang and Madam can rehabilitate the old, even if she is punished.
However, with the king's temperament, knowing that he has a child, maybe he is just happy, and he won't even punish her!
Thinking optimistically, Qi Jin rode a horse with the guards and hurried on the road.
After a light snowfall in the first-tier cities, the water flow in the moat is getting bigger and bigger. The people stood on the bank of the river and cheered. They were impatient, so they got down and scooped water with buckets.
"It's saved, our Tian is saved!"
"Hurry up, come on, get some water!"
"Water, a lot of water!"
There were more and more people by the river, and some even jumped straight down. The beaming shouts spread from the direction of the city gate to the entire city, and the first-tier cities finally came alive.
Huaiyu stood on the tower and watched with a smile, and Wu and the others responded by her side: "The Qulinhe River Channel has started construction. When it is completed, the remaining tributaries of the three counties of Dongping will also be cut off. Even if there is little rain in the city, there will be no more droughts."
"Very good." Huaiyu nodded, and was about to say something more, when he saw a group of people gathered around the bottom of the city, all holding plates in their hands. There were wotou and buns on the plates, as if they wanted to be brought up. The guard stopped and shouted:
"Master Wu! Master Wu!"
"Miss Xu, we are here to give thanks!"
"Master Tongjun, let us go up!"
Huaiyu knows it, and looks at the people around you with a smile: "You are also good officials nowadays. The people's kindness must lead you, go, it doesn't count as your bribery."
Several elders were a little embarrassed and scratched their heads. Xu Chuyong saw a grandmother standing unsteadily below, and quickly took the lead to meet her.
Huaiyu looked at it and thought this picture is really beautiful. This is the treatment that good people should have. Instead of being scolded, they will be treated like their own children. , Our family made it and added more sugar!"
Huaiyu retracted his gaze, stood alone on the tower, and continued to look at the river below. There was a little bit of envy in his eyes.
She can help them, but she can't help herself. In the eyes of the people, she is still the evil princess Danyang.
The cold wind blew up and tossed her temples. Huaiyu stretched out her hand and put her hair behind her ears. She thought very generously, that’s okay. She always had to pay the price after four years of arrogance and fearlessness. .
There was a sound of irregular footsteps nearby, and Li Huaiyu thought who was back, but didn't turn his head.
However, after a moment, a pair of old hands held a pan-like head and passed them to her side.
With a shock in my heart, Huaiyu looked back abruptly.
Grandma's face has deep folds, and she can't see her eyes when she smiles. She has lost a lot of teeth and can't speak clearly, but Huaiyu still hears it.
She said: "His Royal Highness, my son and wife are all carrying water and watering the ground, I will thank you."
Blinking, blinking again, Huaiyu looked at the wotou on the plate, his throat tightened, and then smiled again: "Old man, give it to whoever you should, don't listen to them and give it to me. "
The grandma was startled, and asked her: "Are you the eldest princess?"
The guard next to him frowned to come forward and blame her for being rude, Li Huaiyu stretched out his hand to stop the person, and slowly nodded at her.
"That's for you." Grandma smiled, her gums were exposed, "You are a good person."
The pan full of wotou was stuffed into her hand, Huaiyu's eyes were confused, and even looked at Jiuwu, suspecting that they had specially invited her to make her happy.
But the grandmother said: "I came here from Jiangxi more than two years ago. You saved my house once, this is the second time."
In the six years of Daxing’s drought in Jiangxi, the plague spread across seven counties, and it will even sweep across Jiangxi with an unstoppable force. If the princess hadn’t immediately shut down the city, the disease of medicine and stone would definitely kill more people.
Grandma doesn't understand court disputes, she only knows that their family is saved because of the eldest princess.
This time, thanks to the princess, the first-tier cities that had been drought for many years now have water. They can water the ground, grow food, and continue to live.
A pan of wotou, equivalent to a family's rations for a day, she brought it all, wiping her hands on the patched apron, looking a little cramped.
Li Huaiyu was stunned for a while, then reached out his hand to pick up a nest and took a bite.
The dry taste is far inferior to Chijin's craftsmanship, but she swallowed it and took another bite.
"Hall...Your Majesty?" The guard next to him wanted to persuade, Huaiyu shook his head, and ate a big wotou. Finally, he held the plate and said to the grandma: "I will finish eating."
Grandma smiled and nodded again and again.
Li Huaiyu asked: "Where is your home?"
"Not far, just outside the western suburbs." Grandma pointed, "I should go back too."
Looking at the direction, Huaiyu nodded and gestured to the guard next to him. The latter understood clearly, helped her grandma down the tower, took a few bags of rice, and sent them back to her house.
When Jiang Xuanjin came up, she saw Li Huaiyu holding a pan of head in a daze.
He was puzzled. He walked over and took a look. The plate was rough and the head was rough, but she had crumbs on her fingers, and it was obvious that she had eaten one.
"Your Highness?"
Hearing his voice, the person in front of him raised his head, his eyes bright as stars.
She lifted up the plate in her hand like a child and showed off to him with her eyes wide open: "This is given to me by a grandma!"
Jiang Xuanjin didn't understand, she quickly pointed to the group of people who were still surrounded by the people, pointed to the plate in her hand, and grinned: "I have it too!"
Slightly startled, Jiang Xuanjin cast her eyes down: "You can be so happy with just one round of heads."
"You don't understand!" Huai Yuzhi couldn't stop smiling, her eyes full of brilliance, "She said I was a good person!"
For so long, she has been living in the intrigue of the court. She has been accustomed to the verbal abuse from the officials and the people, as well as the comfort of the people around her. It was the first time someone praised her so sincerely and plainly.
People with high prestige like Jiang Xuanjin have become accustomed to their respect and love for others. Unlike her, she waited for eight years before she came to such a pancake.
The Cheng Xu at the back frowned, and stopped talking.
How could the master not understand? If he didn't understand, he wouldn't try his best to exchange for her the current situation.
"I don't understand." Jiang Xuanjin answered her quietly, looking at ease.
Li Huaiyu was in a good mood and smiled and asked, "Sir, do you want to let me go and have a look? Let's talk about Danyang and Ziyang by the way?"
"No." He refused without thinking.
However, after two sticks of incense, a carriage slowly moved along the moat. The carriage was covered with thick bedding, nestled in the corner with a pillow on the back of its waist, and exhaled comfortably. .
The Ziyangjun in front of him knelt on the soft quilt very disgustedly, his body still straight.
"Aren't you tired?" Huaiyu raised her eyebrows, "This car is used to lie down, but it is uncomfortable to sit."
"His Royal Highness has something to say straight." He said coldly.
Li Huaiyu chuckled, supporting his chin and looking at him, and said: "Lu Ji is supplying first-tier cities. The supply of Danyang Border City is not enough, and some have to be shipped from Ziyang Border City. But Ziyang is very strict with Danyang. If you can’t get out of the city gate, please make it easier for you."
To ride with him, just to plead with Lu Jingxing?
With a tight heart, Jiang Xuanjin sneered: "What if it's not convenient for me?"
With a soft snort, Huaiyu spoke in full force: "If you can't make this convenient! Then I will!"
The body moved, moved to his side, stretched out his hand to hook his finger, Li Huaiyu smiled: "Then I beg you more."
The tone that softened suddenly, like a pair of gentle hands, supported his sinking heart.
The pain in her chest was terrible. Jiang Xuanjin stared at her and held her hand. She was silent for a long time. Then she said, her voice was a little dumb: "You do this, you are not afraid of Lu Jingxing angry?"
Huaiyu thought about it seriously and shook his head: "He won't be angry."
"Yes." Jiang Xuanjin nodded, "For so many years, he can always be by your side, there is always his uniqueness."
Is that right? Lu Jingxing is indeed capable of making money.
Huaiyu smiled secretly, looking at him looking like he wanted to throw her away but couldn't bear it, he stretched his hand over and got into his fingers, like a long, long time ago, with his fingers clasped.
Jiang Xuanjin's face is ugly: "Your Highness."
"Huh?"
Appearing to find it difficult to speak, Jiang Xuanjin stared at her hand.
Huaiyu looked upright: "What's wrong? Is something wrong?"
Nothing is right! Didn't you ask for a break? Don't you want to get married with Lu Jingxing? Why are you so close to him suddenly?
Jiang Xuanjin is very annoyed when she feels that she is molesting him, her thin lips are tightened, and her eyebrows are closed.
"Is it fun?" he asked.
Huaiyu smiled and nodded, clasping his hands tighter: "It's fun."
"Stop!" He snorted.
The horse outside gave a long hiss, Huaiyu leaned forward, and immediately said "Oh".
Jiang Xuanjin wanted to get up and get out of the car, but when she heard the movement, she stiffened for a while, she turned her head and asked, "What's wrong?"
Hugging his belly humbly, Li Huaiyu said: "Uncomfortable."
The car was traveling by the river, and there was no shop in front of the village, Jiang Xuanjin gritted her teeth and ordered Chengxu: "Go back to the princess mansion!"
"Hey, no need." Holding his hand, smiled with a smile, "Just keep walking forward."
Jiang Xuanjin: "..."
Sit back to the original position, he looked at her in silence for a long time, and rubbed his eyebrows quite tiredly: "Can't your highness let me go?"
Since he is destined not to be together, why bother to tease him?
Moving the hand that he shook with him, Li Huaiyu sighed: "My lord, my strength is not strong at all. If you don't like it, you can completely break away."
It's because he won't break away, so I came to play such a trick with him? Jiang Xuanjin smiled back with an anguish: "That's fine, I will answer your Highness's request."
"Thank you!" Huai Yu was happy, but still didn't let go of his hand.
What does this person think? Jiang Xuanjin didn't understand.
In the family motto of the Jiang family, there is already a husband’s family but being close to others. According to the rules, it is necessary to tattoo on the forehead and expel him from the house. He knows very well that such behavior violates ethics and rules, and if he doesn't break away, it will be regarded as the same crime.
It's a mess, he didn't move.
The smile on Li Huaiyu's face got bigger and bigger, and a pair of apricot eyes looked at him like a mouse who had succeeded in stealing fishy, one could not hold back, and even laughed directly.
