Chapter 209 It’s wrong, things are different now
Faced with Li Chengyuan's sudden question, Xiao Hong frowned subconsciously.
What is going on with this woman? She was gentle and carefree before, but now she acts like a psycho.
After finishing speaking, Li Chengyuan also realized that something was wrong with what she just said. She quickly smiled and put the plate in her hand on the counter.
"Your Highness, I am just a little anxious for a moment. Your Highness, don't be surprised. Come and try the food carefully prepared by your Highness. Xiliang City is too hot. Your Highness, try this frozen strawberry. This is your Highness."
I just took it out and it's still chilly."
Hearing Li Chengyuan speak like this, Xiao Hongshen's expression improved a little.
He walked over, took the spoon from her hand, scooped out a strawberry on the plate and put it into his mouth.
It's very sweet, even a little cloying.
It's really cold.
He doesn't like sweet things.
Xiao Hongshen took a bite and then put it down.
"It looks very exquisite, what is it called?"
Seeing his interest, Li Chengyuan said: "This is called frozen strawberry. The craftsmanship is very complicated. I have been busy in the kitchen all day."
"Thank you for your hard work." Xiao Hongshen quietly placed the spoon on the table, stretched out his hand to take Li Chengyuan into his arms: "You are pregnant, so don't be so busy. After a while, our palace will
When the people arrive, they will escort you back to Beijing."
Li Chengyuan was about to separate from Xiao Hongshen one day, so she quickly interrupted: "I won't leave, I want to be with His Highness."
"The conditions in Xiliang City are dangerous and cannot be compared with Kyoto. Even if you don't think about yourself, you still have to think about the child in your belly." Xiao Hongshen emphasized: "You have always been very sensible, do you want me to worry this time?
?”
That's what I was thinking about.
I didn't know how much trouble I caused on the way to Xiliang City, so it would be better to send him back to Beijing as soon as possible.
Li Chengyuan looked touched: "Your Highness, this is the time when Your Highness needs me. I must not leave. The war will officially begin soon. I want to stay and help Your Highness. The barbarians are easy to get rid of, but Yan Wanqing is difficult to deal with."
Ah, with how she acted in the past few days, I am really worried that she will take advantage of the war to attack His Highness."
I have to say that Li Chengyuan knew Xiao Hongshen very well.
Yan Wanqing's arrogant look just now really made him hold a grudge in his heart. Now after listening to Li Chengyuan's analysis, murderous intent flashed in Xiao Hongshen's eyes.
"The Yan family is no longer what it used to be. In the late Qing Dynasty, she only took the risk to go to the front line to get some military glory because she wanted to preserve the glory of the Yan family. But she thought wrongly. Without Zhen Guo Gong, the Zhen Guo Mansion is already in ruins.
A piece of loose sand, if it is not her turn to attack me, I will do my best to deal with her."
Hearing this, Li Chengyuan finally felt at ease.
In the original work, Xiao Hongshen had an almost perverted obsession with Yan Wanqing.
Now this obsession has finally turned into hatred and murderous intention because of himself.
A big stone in her heart finally fell.
"If this is the case, I am willing to stay and help His Highness!" Li Chengyuan shyly leaned into his arms and said.
A trace of evil flashed in Xiao Hongshen's eyes.
Yan Wanqing's injuries must not have fully healed yet, so he must seize this opportunity.
Besides, the half-dead Ji Yuntai was pushed in a wheelchair by Yan Wanqing and returned to the embrace of the housekeeper. The housekeeper was so frightened that his face turned pale and he did not forget to kneel down and thank Yan Wanqing.
Over there, Ji Yuntai held on to the corner of Yan Wanqing's clothes and refused to let go.
"Yan Shuai, my legs hurt so much."
Yan Wanqing looked at his bloody lower body and looked at the butler next to him: "I remember that the city lord lost feeling in his legs a few years ago."
The housekeeper looked at his city lord, and finally his eyes met the confused Yan Wanqing. He sneered: "Maybe... the weather has been warmer recently, so I have regained some consciousness."
"Isn't Xiliang City always so hot?" Yan Wanqing added.
housekeeper:"……"
Ji Yuntai burst into tears: "Wei Chen didn't know that the seventh prince would be that kind of person, and he was worried that he would do this to Wei Chen later. I wonder if Yan Shuai still has the energy to send Wei Chen back with him."
Yan Wanqing thought about it, and it seemed to make sense. She thought that she would tell Ji Yuntai about her departure later, so she nodded: "That's okay, I will send you there."
Ji Yuntai then let go of her clothes.
The housekeeper quickly pushed him forward.
While Ji Yuntai was recovering from his injuries, Yan Wanqing sat on a chair in the outer room and waited.
When the doctor finally came out of the back room, she drank all the pot of tea on the table.
Yan Wanqing stood up and couldn't help but burped, then stepped forward to greet him.
"Doctor, how is the situation?"
Just as the doctor was about to speak, he was pushed towards the door by the butler who came out.
The housekeeper faced Yan Wanqing and said, "The city lord has already dressed and is waiting for Commander Yan inside."
Yan Wanqing heard Ji Yuntai waiting for her inside, so she walked inside.
The butler here took out the money from his sleeve and put it in the doctor's hand: "Thank you for your hard work today, please go back quickly."
The doctor padded the silver in his hand and said, "They are all skin injuries. The silver I gave you today is a bit too much."
"No more, no more, please go back quickly, it's getting late." The housekeeper greeted the maid and sent the doctor out.
He then wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
inside the house.
Yan Wanqing walked into the inner room.
Ji Yuntai was leaning on the bed with a weak look on his face. When he saw Yan Wanqing come in, he raised his hand: "Shuai Yan, I would like to salute Commander Yan."
"Come on." Yan Wanqing stepped forward and pressed him down on the bed, preventing him from moving.
"When you were not injured before, I didn't see you saluting me in a wheelchair. Today, you were beaten by Xiao Hongshen. Could it be that my legs were beaten back to life and you remembered to salute me?
"
Ji Yuntai looked at her aggrievedly: "Wei Chen is so injured, but Yan Shuai is still in the mood to tease Wei Chen."
Yan Wanqing looked at him suspiciously, wondering if Ji Yuntai had been beaten in the brain today, why did he talk like a girl?
"What is Shuai Yan looking at?" Ji Yuntai touched his forehead suspiciously.
Yan Wanqing looked away and cleared her throat: "Ahem, it's nothing. Actually, there is something I want to tell you."
"Commander Yan, please speak." Ji Yuntai said.
"Actually, I'm here to say goodbye to you today. There are many affairs in the army, and it's inconvenient to go back and forth to the city lord's palace, so I decided to live directly in the military camp from now on."
As soon as Yan Wanqing finished speaking, Ji Yuntai shook his head: "That's inappropriate."
"Why is it inappropriate?" Yan Wanqing frowned: "As the commander-in-chief of the army, I should naturally be with the soldiers, not to mention that there are traces of barbarian exploration outside the city, and the war may start again at any time."
Therefore, if she stays in the army, she can stabilize the morale of the army and command the soldiers.
Ji Yuntai looked serious: "Shuai Yan, listen to Wei Chen. Although you are the commander-in-chief, the environment in the army is harsh. No matter how strong you are, you are still a woman. Since you are a woman, you must have
At this inconvenient time, when all the men in the army are in their prime of life, I am afraid that they will not be able to stabilize the morale of the army..."
Yan Wanqing's brows furrowed more and more as he listened.
"Don't be alarmist. When I was young, I followed my father and brother into battle to kill the enemy. I was also stationed in the army."
Ji Yuntai endured his temper and spoke eloquently: "Shuai Yan is just a young boy, but now..." His eyes fell on Yan Wanqing.
Yan Wanqing glared at him fiercely: "If you look again, I'll dig out your eyes."
Ji Yuntai touched his nose: "Things are different now."
What a difference from what it used to be!
