Chapter 185 Nowhere to stay(2/2)
"What do you owe you?"
"Bridal chamber!"
Long Xixi blushed and spat, "You're just thinking about this."
Qin Lang said: "Don't you want to?"
Long Xixi covered her eyes and said shyly: "I don't listen, I don't listen!" But her delicate body was greasy in Qin Lang's warm embrace, soft and unwilling to move. The loss in her heart before had long disappeared. With him, what's the harm even if she lost the world?
A team ahead blocked the way, Qin Lang held the reins of the horse, the black wind raised his front hooves, and then nailed them to the snow.
The one who blocked their way was Jinlin Guard, and the person who led the team was the deputy commander Yuan Menkun. This group of people went to Qin Lang to search last time. Yuan Menkun fell into a big flaw in Jixiang Lane last time and was regarded as a joke. Although he was convinced by Qin Lang at that time, he always held a grudge against this matter and made up his mind to take revenge in the future. Unexpectedly, he got the opportunity so soon.
Qin Lang said: "Isn't this Vice Commander Yuan? Did you drive this road?"
Yuan Menkun hugged Qin Lang and said, "Mr. Qin, after receiving the order from the Empress Dowager, no one shall take in Long Xixi or give her any help. Those who violate the order will despise the court's orders and disrespect!"
Long Xixi was about to have an attack, and felt Qin Lang hugging her tightly. Qin Lang said, "The Empress Dowager's orders should be followed, but you might as well keep your eyes open and see clearly. Now Long Xixi took me in. It was she who wanted to help me, so we did not violate the Empress Dowager's order."
Yuan Menkun laughed and said, "Long Xixi is a clever man, penniless. She takes you in? Help you? Do you think we are as easy to cheat as three-year-olds?"
Qin Lang said, "I'm not interested in lying to you." The reins of his right hand shook, and the black wind made a neigh like thunder. The more than ten horses riding by the Jinlin Guard were frightened by the neigh of the black wind, and for a moment, the team was in Luancheng.
Qin Lang had already rode his horse to rush towards the other party.
Seeing that Qin Lang dared to force his way through the barrier, Yuan Menkun raised the long sword in his hand and slashed at Heifeng's horse's head. Of course, he did not dare to kill Qin Lang in public, and wanted to force Qin Lang to retreat by killing his mount.
Qin Lang used the sword faster. Yan Ling Knife sealed Yuan Menkun's sword. Long Xixi moved his fingers and a small crystal sword had passed through Yuan Menkun's mount's eyes.
The horse let out a whine and fell to the ground with a loud bang. Yuan Menkun's horse stumbled, worried that Qin Lang's next attack would flee in a mess on the ground.
Fortunately, Qin Lang and Long Xixi had no intention of hurting others and rushed out of the siege with the speed of the black wind.
Seeing Yuan Menkun's miserable ending, the other Jinlin Guards immediately put aside their thoughts of chasing. With the strength of Qin Lang and Long Xixi, even if they rushed forward, they would have to end up with a crushing defeat.
Today is also the day when Chen Weiyu left Dabaoen Temple. Chen Qiongnian quietly took her back to Chen's mansion. After the Chen's mansion was renovated, Chen Weiyu still had a future, and her mother had already arrived in Yongdu from Chiyang. The whole family was happy to meet.
The mother and daughter held hands and said endless things. When Mrs. Chen saw that her daughter was obviously thin, she shed tears in her heart.
Chen Qiongnian smiled and said, "When we didn't meet, I thought about my daughter, but when I saw her, I cried."
"I'm happy."
Chen Weiyu took out a brocade plaster to wipe away her tears and said softly: "I just talk and forgot to congratulate my father on his promotion."
Chen Qiongnian was already the Minister of Justice and was in charge of the criminal law of the Great Yong. The Chen family's status has also been greatly improved. Although Chen Qiongnian's ability is fully competent, he still benefited from his daughter in the eyes of outsiders. If he had not become the father-in-law, he would not have been promoted and reused so quickly.
Chen Qiongnian sighed and said, "He Xizhi."
Chen Weiyu said: "I will enter the palace in a few days."
Chen Qiongnian looked at his daughter's calm and composed expression and felt a little guilty. He sent his daughter into the palace with one hand. It would be fine if the emperor was a normal person, but he was just a naughty and stupid dementia. He couldn't help but think of Qin Lang. What other thing Long Shixiang could compare with Qin Lang besides the identity of an emperor? When Jiang Konghou went to Chen's mansion, if he followed the flow, he might have ushered in his life happiness for his daughter. The person he liked in his heart must be Qin Lang.
Mrs. Chen remembered that her daughter was about to enter the palace, and she couldn't help but feel sad. She wiped her tears and got up to prepare lunch. Her daughter liked to eat the dishes she cooked with her hands the most. She would probably not have many opportunities in the future.
Chen Qiongnian said: "The wedding is ready. Do you have any ideas and requirements?"
Chen Weiyu shook her head and said, "Dad looks at the arrangement." She had no expectations for this wedding, it was just a formality, and her future husband was a little fool.
Chen Qiongnian said: "The Empress Dowager is not simple." Every time he thinks of this, he becomes in a heavy mood. How can his daughter get along with Xiao Zirong after entering the palace? Using Xiao Zirong's way of dealing with things, his daughter may not have a good life in the future.
Chen Weiyu said: "The child will definitely respect the Empress Dowager and follow the rules."
Chen Qiongnian said: "Where do you want to go these days? Who are you meeting?"
Chen Weiyu thought for a while and said, "Do you brother know about my marriage?"
Chen Qiongnian pursed his lips, and the knot between father and son has not yet been untied: "Your mother has sent a letter, but he has not replied." Even he didn't know whether his son Chen Hutu would come back before his daughter's wedding. The father and son have been in a long time. Chen Qiongnian once threatened to break off the father-son relationship with him, but no matter how cruel he said, the blood and family affection were still endless. He never let go of his concern for his son in his heart.
At this time, the family came to report that it was Jiang Nuanmo, the second lady of Sang Mansion. She and Chen Weiyu were close friends. When they heard that Chen Weiyu had left Dabaoen Temple and returned home, they came to visit him as soon as possible.
Chen Qiunian asked the two sisters to reminisce about the past and set off for the Ministry of Justice.
Jiang Nuanmo brought a lot of gifts to Chen Weiyu. Chen Weiyu smiled and said, "You are here and have brought so many gifts. I'm so polite to me if I haven't seen you for a few days."
Jiang Nuanmo smiled and said, "Even if I curry favor with you, the future queen."
Chen Weiyu said angrily: "Ask for a fight, aren't you afraid that I will ask the emperor to include you in the harem, and then I can have multiple people around me who can speak."
Jiang Nuanmo beg for mercy and said, "You spare me. I don't have the wealthy life like you. Besides, I have made up my mind and I don't plan to get married in this life."
Chen Weiyu was stunned when she heard this. After all, everyone knew about Jiang Nuanmo and Cao Rui's engagement. Could it be that something happened? He quickly asked what happened.
Jiang Nuanmo said: "It's nothing, it's just that I don't like him very much."
"Didn't you like it in the past? Didn't Cao Rui like you very much?"
Jiang Nuanmo sighed and said, "I don't like you that much. A man really likes you not because he can let you enjoy wealth and glory, but because he can share the ups and downs with you. He will rush forward to protect you when encountering anything. He is not afraid of encountering huge troubles, and he is still firmly standing with you, just like my brother."
Chen Weiyu's heart moved, Jiang Nuanmo's brother was naturally Qin Lang. She noticed something keenly and whispered: "Have your brother encountered any trouble?"
Jiang Nuanmo told Qin Lang's current situation, and Chen Weiyu said, "That Long Xixi is really so good, it's worth Qin Lang's price for her?" Long Xixi took the initiative to see her at Dabaoen Temple that day. Chen Weiyu was also surprised that she and Qin Lang would come together, but afterwards, it was normal. Even she was conquered by Qin Lang's charm. There are many men in this world, but there are few men as outstanding as Qin Lang. Long Xixi is so smart that she fell in love with Qin Lang and had the intention of taking it for herself.
Jiang Nuanmo smiled and said, "I don't know either, but few men can do it like my brother. By the way, my brother wrote a few poems in Babu Academy and Zhang Yanzong's competition, which was so good, even Lu Xiang praised him."
Chen Weiyu asked Jiang Nuanmo to listen to it. After listening to five untitled poems, Chen Weiyu couldn't help but think of the poems Qin Lang gave him. Qin Lang really deserves his talent.
Jiang Nuanmo said: "I don't know where Long Xixi offended the Empress Dowager. The empress dowager's decree is obviously to kill her. My brother insists on being with Long Xixi, and he may be retaliated by the empress dowager."
Chen Weiyu said: "They are both extremely smart people, and I believe they can come up with a solution."
The orders of the Empress Dowager Xiao Zixuan made Long Xixi have no place to live in Yongdu. Although Yongdu Inn was scattered, no one dared to take them in, and they had no intention of causing trouble for others.
The two found an old abandoned ship next to the Taki River. In the cold winter, the surface of the Taki River was frozen, the ice layer was very thick, and the carriages and horses could pass freely on it.
Qin Lang cleaned up the old ship, and Long Xixi picked some reed flowers for decoration. The reed flowers covered the boat and kept warm.
Qin Lang raised a bonfire on the shore. The two of them ate some snacks and snuggled up beside the bonfire. Looking at the blazing flames, their hearts were filled with warmth.
Long Xixi leaned on Qin Lang's shoulder and said softly: "Do you blame me?"
“It’s too late to like it.”
Long Xixi said: "Actually, I got close to you for a purpose at the beginning."
"I know!"
"I know why you didn't reject me?"
Qin Lang smiled and said, "Isn't it a fool to push the fat that comes to my door without taste it?"
"What you mean is that you plan to taste it before pushing me away?"
Qin Lang said: "If the goods are not right, you must allow returns, right?"
Long Xixi hugged him and said coquettishly: "Don't retreat, you are not allowed to have the idea of eating for nothing."
Qin Lang smiled and said, "You think I am stupid and pick up a treasure. You want me to return it, but there is no door! Tell me, what was your original purpose?"
