Chapter Fifty-ninth A Tour to Lintong Before Departure
“Tuk-tuk-tuk!”
A knock on the door awoke Xue Xichen from her deep sleep, and she was greeted by morning light. When she first woke up, her whole body felt sore and weak. Xue Xichen tiredly got into the quilt, not wanting to talk to the people outside the door.
"Xichen, it's time to get up and have breakfast!"
Outside the door, Xiao Liuyue's call came. Xue Xichen frowned and continued to hug the quilt and fall asleep.
The golden phoenix fox sleeping at the foot of the bed jumped up on Xue Xichen's head, its long and fluffy tail tickling Xue Xichen's cheek, as if calling her to get up. Xue Xichen felt that her nose was itchy, and she couldn't help but reach out to push it.
Kai Jinfenghu said impatiently: "Xiao Jinzi, don't make trouble!"
After lingering all night last night, Feng Qingge took her back to her room in the morning. Her head had just hit the pillow, and she had not slept for an hour when Xiao Liuyue came to wake her up. She was so sleepy and exhausted that she didn't want to eat.
Want sleep.
Pushed away by Xue Xichen, Jinfenghu squatted melancholy on the bedside. His beautiful big eyes looked at the bedridden owner with an aggrieved look. His sensitive pointed ears moved and he listened to the door.
"Xichen, get up, staying in bed is not good for your health!"
"No food! I want to sleep! Sleep!"
Xue Xichen yelled loudly, and in a daze, he grabbed the golden phoenix fox on the bed and threw it towards the door. The golden phoenix fox let out a miserable scream, jumped out of Xue Xichen's palm, and ran towards the door in a panic.
His eyes looked timidly at the owner who was still tired on the bed, for fear of being thrown out as trash by the owner again.
"Don't disturb my sleep! Get out-"
Xue Xichen got into bed, pulled up the quilt and covered her head to block out all the noise from the outside world. She closed her eyes and fell into a drowsy sleep again.
When Xue Xichen woke up again, the fragrance of food filled her nose. Xue Xichen suddenly opened her eyes and suddenly woke up. She didn't see the golden phoenix fox in the room, but she saw Xiao Liuyue sitting quietly by the bed and staring at herself.
It seemed that he had been looking at her like that for a long time...
"Brother!"
Xue Xichen was startled and suddenly woke up, her brain was clear and she no longer felt sleepy.
"Awake? Eat!"
Seeing Xue Xichen wake up, Xiao Liuyue left the bed and sat back at the table. She turned her back to Xue Xichen and lightly pressed her fingers on the food covered by the dishes on the table. She said quietly: "After sleeping for so long, my stomach should be exhausted.
I’m hungry! Get up and eat quickly!”
"What time is it now?"
"Just in time for lunch."
Lunch?! She slept for so long?!
Xue Xichen couldn't help complaining about someone's excessive demands last night. Of course, she didn't dare to say it out loud. If Xiao Liuyue knew...ahem! She raised a smile and said, "Brother, thank you for bringing me food! I'll freshen up after a while.
, get up and eat immediately!”
"Jun Yi said he would take us to Lintong for a walk in the afternoon. If you want to go out, get up quickly!"
"Okay! I'll get up right away!"
When she heard that she could go out for fun, Xue Xichen immediately cheered up and her fatigue disappeared. She said to Xiao Liuyue: "Brother, you go out first! I want to freshen up and change clothes!"
Xiao Liuyue stood up and walked towards the door, saying, "I will let the golden phoenix fox play in the yard, so you don't have to worry. Jun Yi and I will wait for you in the flower hall. You will come out after dinner."
"good!"
After Xiao Liuyue left, Xue Xichen hurriedly got out of bed and put on her clothes. She freshened up briefly, ate her meal quickly, looked in the mirror to straighten her appearance, and after making sure it was OK, she put on a thick cloak and hurried out to the flower hall.
And go.
In the flower hall, Xiao Liuyue, Leng Junyi, and Feng Qingge were drinking tea. Phantom stood quietly behind Feng Qingge, with her eyes lowered. When they heard Xue Xichen's hurried footsteps, everyone looked up at the same time.
She seemed to smile in unison. Xue Xichen glanced at the refreshed Feng Qingge, with countless resentments in her heart. She turned her face away from Feng Qingge and said to Leng Junyi: "Brother Leng, the senior brother said you want to
Take us to visit Lintong, is this true?"
Leng Junyi replied: "It's true! You and Liu Yue have been in Lintong for many days, but I have been busy with military affairs and have not been able to take time to take you around for fun. I feel really uneasy. It's rare that I have nothing to do today.
, I’ll take you around the city for a tour, okay?”
"Very good!"
She has been suffocating in her room for a long time and can't wait to go out and play!
"I'm just telling you, she will definitely be very happy when she hears it!"
Xiao Liuyue understands Xue Xichen's temperament. This girl can't stop being idle, can't stay still, and can't hold it in. She wants to walk around all the time, a typical lonely master who can't hold it in!
Feng Qingge put down the tea cup in her hand, "Since I have nothing to do today, I will go with you!"
There is no need for the Phantom to say anything, he should go with them.
…
The group left the General's Mansion, abandoned the carriage and walked on foot in the streets and alleys of Lintong. Now that the flowers are gone, the people have returned to their normal lives, including vendors setting up stalls, young performers, fortune tellers, and storytellers.
Sir, the bustling place has swept away the previous deserted atmosphere and is very lively.
Feng Qingge sighed deeply and said sincerely: "Although the acne has been raging, it's really great to see that people can return to their normal daily lives!"
Phantom said: "Your Majesty has a kind heart, which is really a blessing to the people!"
"What is this? Dragon beard cake? What is it made of? Is it delicious?"
Xue Xichen approached the hawker setting up a stall along the street, asked out of curiosity, picked up a piece to try, sweet powder, and it tasted very good. She paid the silver, took back a small bag, handed it to Xiao Liuyue, and asked: "Senior brother,
Do you want it?"
"Xichen, you just love buying snacks."
Xiao Liuyue picked up a piece and put it in his mouth. It melted in his mouth and left a fragrant aftertaste. He nodded and praised: "Not bad! Not bad! It tastes good! Qing Ge, Jun Yi, do you want to try it?"
Feng Qingge, Leng Junyi and Phantom each took a piece and put it into their mouths. They couldn't help but nod their heads as they chewed carefully. Feng Qingge sighed: "It really tastes good! After living here for a long time, I didn't know there was such a thing here.
Delicious snacks.”
"That's because you disdain folk snacks."
I am used to eating lobster, abalone, and bird's nest, but how can I appreciate the delicious and sweet folk snacks? Xue Xichen ate it with gusto, searching around with sharp eyes. When she saw something special, she immediately ran forward to ask, and she tasted it from time to time, chatting with the shop owner.
After haggling, I soon had a lot of snacks in my hands.
"Here, take it!"
She was a lazy fool, so she didn't want to hold it by herself! What's more, there were a bunch of flower protectors following behind her. If they didn't make good use of it, it would be a waste! She pushed the things in her hands into Phantom's hands, and said euphemistically: Help me.
Take it! Then, jump forward and start a new round of scanning.
Phantom lowered his head and looked at the large and small bags in his hands, and then looked at Xue Xichen in front of him who was happily bending down to bargain with a shopkeeper. With a look of helplessness in his eyes, he held it obediently and followed Xue Xichen.
Be a competent "porter".
The originally planned tour ended up being a shopping trip with Xue Xichen. Feng Qingge and Xiao Liuyue looked at each other with helpless expressions.
Xue Xichen took the package of candied fruits and ate them deliciously. Her eyes had already spotted the mutton skewers on the corner of the street. Leng Junyi discovered Xue Xichen's little idea and walked up to buy two skewers of mutton and handed them to Xue Xi.
Chen. Xue Xichen took it with a smile and said happily: "Thank you, Brother Leng!"
