Chapter 18
After receiving the information, the group set off from the small town in the evening of the same day, and after walking a few miles, they met people who came to meet them.
Chu Guo followed Nie Changjue into a larger and more comfortable carriage than before, but along the way, during the four or five days, there was no entanglement between the two of them.Thinking about the day when Nie Changjue came, he was completely blown away by An Liu...
Chu Guo felt a little funny, and lifted the curtain to look at An Liu behind the carriage.
The rest of the guards were on horseback, but he was the only one walking.Although the speed of the carriage was not fast, it still had to run at a trot. After running like this for a few days, An Liu's leg cramped and healed.An Liu raised his head and glanced at Chu Guo, then looked away in shock, and secretly cried out in his heart: My wife of the general, you have hurt me...
The eight guards who followed Nie Changjue had gradually become accustomed to Chu Guo's face, and the rest of them just joined in. Now seeing such a beautiful woman with picturesque features turn around from the carriage to look at An Liu, even though they know that he is It is inevitable that the general's people have a hint of jealousy in their hearts.
An Liu seemed to feel the faint jealousy of the people around him, and his heart became more and more painful.I am afraid that only he himself knows the taste of this.
This day Chu Guo was already sound asleep leaning on Nie Changjue's shoulder, when he was awakened by the noise of people around him.
He opened his eyes in a daze, opened the curtain, and found that he had walked into an extremely spacious and lively bustling market.A large number of people and horses behind him also disappeared, but the carriage he was riding in was moving forward slowly.
"The capital is here." There was no extra emotion in Nie Changjue's voice.
"Are you going to the General's Mansion?" Chu Guo looked up at him.
"En." Nie Changjue replied, with a gloomy look on his face, unlike what he usually saw.
"Are...unhappy?" Chu Guo hesitated for a moment, but still asked.
Nie Changjue looked into his eyes, his expression so unpredictable that he couldn't understand it, and said, "I have a job and a mansion, and I have no father or mother at home. What is there to be happy about when I come back to this capital city?"
"Where's your wife and children?" Chu Guo blurted out like this, but felt that he was asking too much.
"Although there is a wife and family, the relationship is not deep. Most of them were brought over by the courtiers. In addition, the emperor ordered the marriage to also have a side concubine. There are no children."
Since Nie Changjue picked up a lot of books from the old scholar that day, he has read a lot of his picture books in his free time. They are all about the history of wars, romantic affairs...but there is no When it comes to his family, it seems that he only knows that his half-brother is a pilgrim, but this alone makes people feel envious and stop thinking about it.For a moment, he felt a little bit sorry for Nie Changjue in front of him.
In the next second, Nie Changjue said: "After all, I am still young, suave and suave, with the appearance of a young man, how can I have a bunch of sons and daughters?"
Chu Guo: "..."
He didn't think about anything just now.
Driving the carriage so slowly, Chu Guo opened the window, looked at some novelties outside, and chatted with Nie Changjue at the same time.Nie Changjue saw his absent-mindedness and grabbed his hand.
Chu Guo subconsciously wanted to break free.
Nie Changjue approached and whispered in his ear, "Want to go down for a walk?"
Chu Guo was stunned for a moment, knowing that his thoughts had been seen through, so he nodded honestly.Nie Changjue had a hint of a smile, squeezed his hand tightly, and got out of the carriage just like that.
Standing in this busy city, Chu Guo suddenly felt a world away.But a few days ago, I was still in Qingshi Town - my hometown thousands of miles away from where I grew up.Today, he has actually arrived at the capital of Nie Kingdom.
This long street can't be seen at a glance, it is two or three times as wide as the town, besides the usual restaurants, restaurants, hotels, gambling houses, brothels... there are also some novel shops on both sides of the street, and the storefronts are also several times larger more than.The people who come and go wear different clothes, such as silk and satin, coarse linen shirts...
Chu Guo subconsciously followed Nie Changjue forward, with a calm expression on his face, but in fact he carefully looked at everything around him, and remembered everything in his heart.
It's just that he didn't know that he was looking at everything on the street.And almost all the people on the street were secretly looking at him.One is that he is very good-looking, and the other is that the people around him are Nie Changjue, the great general of the Nie Kingdom, who is known to everyone in the capital.
"Who is the elder brother next to General Nie? It's so pretty." A little girl tugged at the corner of her mother's clothes.
Her mother set up a spice stall and was introducing a new scent of jasmine to the two girls in front of her.She touched her daughter's head, and secretly watched the man in red walk by, feeling amazed.And the two girls twisted their handkerchiefs, looked at the two of them, and whispered.
"I've never heard of a male pet in General Nie's residence."
"I don't know where this vixen was brought back from."
The little girl listened to the conversation between the two sisters in puzzlement, and thought to herself: Why don't they seem to like this good-looking big brother...
