Return with you

Chapter 14

Being pressed by Jun Lian and lying on the bed for nearly a month and a half, Liu Changan felt that his muscles and bones had shrunk and softened, and he might not be able to complete a set of boxing exercises.

It was still dark outside, only a few birdsong could be heard.

Liu Changan casually put on a coat and boots, and quietly closed the door.After looking at the door of Jun Lian's house for a long time, there was no sound or candlelight, Liu Chang'an finally calmed down and walked out, wanting to loosen his muscles and bones before Jing Xuan got up.

The martial arts field of Duanwang Mansion is only separated from the East Chamber by a back garden, and it takes less than half a quarter of an hour to reach it.

Standing in front of Lan Qi, Liu Chang'an, who hadn't touched the gun and sword for a long time, desperately suppressed the thought of pulling out the red-tasseled spear and swinging it around, and jumped onto the martial arts training platform in the middle of the training ground.

The wound on the chest has not healed completely, if the practice is too large and the wound is torn, it will be a waste of Jing Xuan's meticulous care of herself these days.

Stabilizing his horse and clenching his fists, Liu Changan began to practice a set of the most basic boxing techniques against the martial arts training post.The strength of the boxing is not heavy, it is mainly about the skills and moves, and it can also stretch the veins of the whole body, so as to stretch the muscles and bones.

"Chang'an?"

Liu Changan was so focused on playing that he didn't notice that someone else was on stage.

"My lord, why did you get up before dawn?" Putting his fists back and straightening his head, Liu Changan saw Huang Fuduan who was wearing a solid suit and was adjusting the armguard on his wrist.

"How long you've been lying down is how long this king has been pestered by those old immortals. I haven't practiced martial arts for a long time, come here to practice boxing and kicking, and use these wooden stakes to vent my anger by the way."

"Old... Immortal... people?" Such words came out of the mouth of Prince Yichao, and it seemed that he was really angry.

Huangfuduan didn't answer, he bypassed Liu Changan and stood in front of the martial arts training post, punched him randomly and violently.

There was only a cracking sound, and a thin stake was broken.

"call--"

Huangfu Duan let out a long breath, while untying the gauze wrapped around his hands, he grabbed Liu Changan's sleeve and pulled her to sit on the wooden platform.

"My lord, it's cold and dewy and the wooden platform is cool, so it's not suitable to sit for a long time."

"Oh yes, I almost forgot that Chang'an was injured. If you catch cold again, Xi'er will punish me to kneel on the washboard for Miss Lian'er. It's not worth it. Hurry up, get up."

...Liu Chang'an didn't know what to answer for a while, she was obviously talking about fearing that the prince would get a cold, so why did it turn on him.

"I haven't taken a step out of the palace in this period of time. I still hope that the prince will tell Chang'an about the major events in the court." Don't worry about whether the wind is cold or not. Liu Chang'an still has some curiosity about the vicissitudes of the dynasty. The emperor was brutally killed. , it is impossible for Yang Chao to remain without a master forever.

"With this king here, what big things can happen." Don't say anything, but as soon as he said it, Huangfu became angry again, "It's just those old bastards who insist on letting this king be the emperor of Lao Shizi, I'm really mad at me !"

The Ninth Five-Year Lord holds the power to kill and seize power, and no one dares to disobey an imperial decree.

"Being the emperor, isn't it good?"

In Liu Chang'an's perception, being an emperor should be everyone's dream, with 72 concubines in the Six Courts of the Three Palaces, gold cups, silverware, fine nectar and jade liquid, enjoying all the luxury in the world.

"Hmph, an emperor who is extravagant and ignores government affairs will be reviled by his courtiers and all the people. Only an emperor who has stopped working hard for the people in the early dynasty will be praised by his subjects. Chang'an, this emperor is not so easy to be."

Everything in the world has two sides. No matter what you do, you have to pay a certain price, but the price may be light or heavy.

Just like herself.

In order to survive, in order not to be bullied, she is now the youngest general in the Yang Dynasty, but who knows, she has paid the price of being a complete woman in her life.

But she doesn't regret it.

Because, she met a person.

A person who made her feel worthy of this life.

After two light pats on the shoulder, Liu Changan raised his head to look at Huangfuduan who stood up at some point.

"Chang'an, take care."

Take care of yourself?What inexplicable words, coupled with Prince Duan's look of taking care of himself, Liu Changan didn't quite understand the meaning of Huangfu Duan's words.

"My king will take a step first."

Watching Huangfu Duan jump off the platform and go out to the opening facing him, Liu Changan became even more puzzled, that direction was the East Wing where she lived for a long time, not the prince's study or bedroom.

"Could it be that the prince was confused by those old officials? But what the prince said just now has a reason."

Patting the dust on his buttocks, Liu Changan still chose to walk up the steps peacefully, as jumping too hard would also affect the healing of the wound.

The moment he turned around, Liu Changan, who had excellent eyesight, froze in place.

She instantly understood what the prince said just now.

Jun Lian stood at another entrance and exit of the training ground, carrying a food box, the shadow of the beams covered Jun Lian's entire face, making it impossible to see his expression clearly.

With fear in his heart, Liu Changan walked up to Jun Lian with tiny steps, lowered his head, and said timidly, "Jingxuan..."

"Go back to your room and have breakfast."

I couldn't tell if there was any anger in it, it was just a bland sentence, but Liu Changan just felt that Jun Lian was angry.

Following Jun Lian, Liu Changan reached out several times to grab the food box in Jun Lian's hand, but retracted behind the hand that was about to touch Jun Lian, she... didn't dare.

After struggling all the way, Jun Lian put the food box on the table and left after saying "Eat it while it's hot".

Sitting slumped on the stool, Liu Changan was buried in deep remorse.

Jing Xuan was really angry.

During this period of time, Jing Xuan would accompany her to have meals together, and then apply wound medicine and change bandages for herself, doing almost everything by herself.

But now, Jing Xuan left her food and left, her wound medicine was not replaced, and she didn't even want her own breakfast...

Why didn't you control your feet and hands...

With a long sigh, Liu Changan opened the food box, which contained two bowls of black-bone chicken soup, two bowls of white porridge, two dishes of side dishes and four pieces of bean paste cakes.

Looking at the things Jing Xuan carefully prepared, it was the first time that Liu Chang'an lost his appetite.

After struggling for a long time, Liu Changan put the lid back on, picked up the food box and walked towards the door, unexpectedly meeting Jun Lian who pushed open the door again.

"Jing Xuan!"

Unable to ignore the twinkling eyes directly opposite, Jun Lian raised the medicine bowl in his hand to block the line of sight, "I drank this medicine after breakfast, and Doctor Lu said that this medicine should not be taken on an empty stomach. It needs to be taken while it’s still hot, so the medicine works best.”

"Oh." Liu Changan immediately took the medicine bowl in front of him, and when his lips touched the edge of the bowl, Liu Changan remembered that he hadn't eaten.

Then, Jun Lian felt a pitiful gaze on him again.

"Jingxuan...I haven't eaten breakfast yet..."

"..." According to the past, within two quarters of an hour after she left, it was enough for Chang'an to eat two meals, why didn't she take a bite today?And according to Chang'an's posture of carrying the box just now, where is he planning to go?

"I'm sorry, I was wrong, don't be angry, I shouldn't have secretly gone to the martial arts field behind your back, I shouldn't have practiced boxing regardless of my wounds, I shouldn't... I shouldn't... I shouldn't have breakfast..." Liu Changan hurriedly In a panic, I searched for my mistakes in my mind and asked for forgiveness.

Jun Lian suddenly felt that Chang'an was a little naive and cute at this time, and couldn't help but pinch the little flesh on Liu Chang'an's face that had grown from taking medicine and food for a month and a half.

Seeing that Jun Lian smiled and made a more intimate gesture towards him, Liu Changan puffed up his mouth quietly, showing that there was a lot of flesh in the place where he was pinched, so that Jun Lian could pinch it more comfortably.

Pretending not to notice Chang'an's small movements, Jun Lian continued to pinch the soft meat that felt good to the touch, and then let go, "I'm not angry, hurry up and eat and drink the medicine, the medicine is getting cold."

Liu Chang'an puffed his mouth and looked at Jun Lian for a while, convinced that Jun Lian was not angry with her, so he calmed down, finished the meal faster than usual, and drank the medicine in one gulp.

Outside the moat of Chang'an City, there was a long line of carriages parked. Passers-by who came and went couldn't help but glance in the direction of the carriage, mutter a few words before leaving in a hurry.

Around the carriage stood three or four people who looked like guards, each with a short knife and a small pistol on their waists, and they were wearing clothes that had never been seen in Chang'an City. People will stop and observe for a while.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the thick gates of the city wall were completely pushed open, and the people passing by were all evacuated. A guard appeared neatly in front of the city gates, and then divided into two small teams and stationed on both sides of the suspension bridge.

Huangfu straddled his horse and walked slowly across the suspension bridge. At the same time, the curtain of the carriage in the front of the convoy was also lifted, and a gorgeous dress similar to that worn when hunting in Chang'an Chariot City stepped down. girl.

Before Huangfu dismounted from the horse, the girl jumped onto the horse's head within a few steps and stood firmly on it with one foot.

"You are that dandy prince of Yangchao? You look quite talented."

"The little princess of the Fenggu Kingdom is equally well-deserved in her skills."

Feng Laiyi raised her chin proudly.

Back then, at a young age, she had obtained the true biography of her master. Since she completed her studies, she has never met anyone who is nine times as skilled as hers in the entire Fenggu country.

But what I didn't expect was that her reputation would spread to the territory of Dayang Dynasty.

"The little princess has traveled thousands of miles to come here. This king will try his best to treat the little princess as a landlord, so that the little princess will be worthy of this trip." Huangfu put his hands in his hands and looked up at the little girl who was looking down at her.

''Are you taking me to a brothel? "

The world suddenly became as silent as death.

"Cough...then what...if the little princess is so elegant, she must." Huangfuduan didn't expect Feng Laiyi to be so straightforward, she is indeed the most beloved of all the children little princess.

The dead silence was staged again, and I don't know how the guards who heard the words were feeling at the moment.

"Then when do you plan to take me there?" Feng Laiyi looked at Huangfu Duan, with an unstoppable eagerness in his eyes.

"The king has already arranged a station for the little princess. The little princess has been running around for several days. What she needs now is to rest for a day or two. This... the brothel and his party, we will discuss it later." Huang Fuduan now has a family relationship. People, how can they set foot in a brothel at will, they can only prevaricate temporarily.

Feng Laiyi jumped on the horse led by her guards, and stood side by side with Huangfu Duan, "I don't want to live in the inn, I want to live in your Prince Duan's mansion, lead the way." Regardless of Huangfu Duan's wishes, Feng Laiyi walked forward slowly with her horse on her shoulders.

"..."

Huangfu pulled the rein, and the horse stepped forward after a few steps on the spot.

An Yi, who was hiding on the top of the city wall, rushed back to the palace after receiving the news from the prince, and informed the princess in advance that the little princess of the Fenggu Kingdom was going to stay in the palace.

At this time, Yun Xi was drinking tea with Jun Lian and Liu Changan in the small courtyard outside the East Wing. When An Yi appeared around the three of them like a ghost, Yun Xi was not surprised. Jun Lian's back was facing An Yi, otherwise she might be taken aback.

"This Fenggu Kingdom sent the little princess to Yang Dynasty, is it for marriage?" Yun Xi put down the teacup, looked at the small bubbles rising from the fish pond, and said casually.

Hearing this, Liu Changan frowned, a little worried.

Yang Dynasty is in the time of national mourning, if it is true what the princess said, then the intention of coming to Fenggu Kingdom is not as good as it appears to be just for marriage.Fu State is adjacent to Fenggu State, and now the eldest prince of Fu State is being detained in Yang Dynasty, so it is possible that Baofeng Ancient State was hired by Fu State as a helper.

"During the national mourning period, marriage and marriage are forbidden, so how could Fenggu Country not know why?" He didn't know much about court affairs, but Jun Lian was very familiar with these etiquettes and rules.

"I'm afraid this person has ulterior motives." Liu Chang'an directly expressed his inner guess.

Yun Xi picked up a piece of pastry, got up and walked to the fish pond, then let go of her hand.

The pastry crumbs in his hand fell into the pond little by little, attracting a group of carp to scramble for it.

"Since the fish delivered to the door by itself, let's see how big waves she can make."
