He Long handed the letter from the capital to He Lianjue. Helianjue thought that something big happened again in the capital. He hurriedly opened the letter and read it carefully. He was also worried that Cen Xue was in trouble again, but he didn't expect that this time it was good news.
"General, what happened?" He Long saw that his face was calm and not like the previous times. There must be something else going on.
Helianjue looked at the vast white plain outside the city wall, sighed, and said, "It's that boy Yuwentuo who wants to marry Yu Wu."
"That's a happy event, but General, why do you look melancholy? Are you having other troubles?" He Long had been with him for a while. He could naturally guess what was going on in his master's mind.
Helianjue folded the letter and stuffed it back into the envelope, with hesitation in his eyes.
"He Long, do you think this general should go back to attend their wedding?" In his heart, he actually wanted to go back, but since that incident, for some reason, he was afraid of meeting them.
But I want to see her again.
This Hongshan City is very peaceful, and the same life is repeated every day, unchanged, which makes Helian Jue's heart feel more and more lonely...
"General, if you want to go back, my subordinates will immediately order you to pick up your bride. We can set off early tomorrow morning." He Long understood what he was thinking, but he couldn't say it clearly.
"No - no need, I won't go back, but the gift must be delivered. You can go down and make arrangements. I want to stay alone for a while." Helian decided after a struggle in his heart.
Not going back.
"Yes, my subordinates will go and make arrangements right away." After He Long finished speaking, he immediately went down from the tower to make arrangements.
On the city tower with the cool north wind, Helian Jue walked to a corner where there were no guards. He said nothing and just stood there quietly, looking up at the clear sky above his head.

"What, you want to leave the palace to see Xiao Ling'er again?" He Lianzhi seemed to be very dissatisfied with her proposal.
What did he bump into when she went to Xiao Ling'er last time? No matter whether Jue was in the capital or not, this was always a thorn in Helianzhi's heart.
"I haven't seen Ling'er for a long time. Didn't she send me a letter a few days ago, telling me that she is now with Wang Sunyu, the son of a bachelor. This time, Yu Wu and Yuwen Tuo's matter was also thanks to Wang Sunyu.
It was so smooth with his help, I would like to meet this person." Cen Xue acted coquettishly beside him, looking at him longingly.
Helian looked into her eyes. He was most afraid of her using this trump card. Every time she looked at him with such an expression, he had no choice but to compromise. This time was no exception.
"Okay, okay, let Suzaku and Xuanwu protect you out, but you have to promise Gu that you can't go anywhere except to Xiao's house." Helianzhi was worried about her safety. After the last separation,
He couldn't let go of her anymore.
Cen Xue's eyes lit up and she blinked her big eyes at the man in front of her who loved her in every possible way. She nodded and promised him very definitely: "I, Lin Cen Xue, swear that I will not go anywhere except the Xiao family!"
After receiving her affirmative answer, Helianzhi could feel a little more at ease. Looking at her smiling face, it took more than half a month since the last time he sent troops to Tuva to bring her back. Now, although there are old prime ministers and senior officials in the palace,
Senior Medical Officer Xiao Boyi took care of it, but there was still a backlog of official documents. As a result, he was extremely busy now and could not spare time to spend time with his precious child.
"I've been a little busy during this period and I've neglected you. If you feel unhappy, you must tell me, you know?" He Lianzhi was afraid that she wouldn't tell him anything, and he felt depressed inside.
Cen Xue had a smile on her lips and buried her cheek in his arms. Ever since she returned to him from Tuva, Cen Xue found that he seemed to be a different person. Although he was very kind to her before, in her heart
, is still lacking some feeling? But this time, he has really changed. The long-lost warmth has returned. Cen Xue can feel that now Helianzhi has opened his heart for her, and it is full.
My own figure...
"Your Majesty, you are busy with state affairs. Now that it is the end of the year, there are naturally many things to do. Cen Xue will take good care of herself. As long as you return to Cen Xue every day and hold Cen Xue to sleep, then Cen Xue will have no complaints." Arm.
She wrapped her arms around his waist and saw that her body was closer to his.
After hearing what she said, Helianzhi smiled on his face~: "Haha, you are the only one in this harem now. If you don't come back here, where else can you go?"
"So Cen Xue wants the king to belong to Cen Xue alone!" She raised her head proudly and looked into his slightly smiling eyes.
"Promise Gu, you can only be alone and never leave Gu's side..." He Lianzhi wiped off the smile on his face and looked at him with a serious look.
she.
Cen Xue nodded and pressed her cheek into his arms again, feeling the warmth of him hugging her tightly...
The next day, Helianzhi indeed allowed Cen Xue to leave the palace, but she was protected by Suzaku on her left and right, Xuanwu on her left and right, and secret guards protecting her in the dark. It could be said that she was watertight and would never allow any evildoers to take advantage of her.
The carriage stopped in front of the Xiao Mansion, and Xiao Boyi came out to greet him personally. He led Cen Xue to Xiao Ling'er's boudoir. It happened that Ling'er was asking the doctor to check Ping An's pulse. Now that she was no longer sick, Xiao Boyi still asked the doctor for her sake.
Every few days, he would come to the house to check Xiao Ling'er's pulse.
Xiao Boyi did not disturb the two of them. He was a grown man and could not talk to them here. He left the backyard to them and went back to his study to read.
"Ling'er, you look good." Cen Xue looked at her with relief. Sure enough, with Dr. Keser's diagnosis and treatment, things were different.
It's a pity that Ling'er entered the palace late and couldn't meet Dr. Coser. By the time Dr. Coser came back, Ling'er's illness had been delayed too late and she was terminally ill. But now I have the opportunity to sit face to face with her.
Together, this opportunity is really rare.
"My health is much better now than before. Speaking of which, I owe all of this to you. If you hadn't asked Dr. Keser to come out of the palace to diagnose and treat me, I would still be a sick person now.
When I have the opportunity to go everywhere and broaden my horizons, my eldest brother is afraid that I will get sick, so he always protects me at home and does not allow me to go out except for necessary things." Xiao Ling'er took Cen Xue's hand and the two of them walked out of the room together.
Walk to the small pavilion in the backyard.
Although the weather outside is cold, it is more comfortable than being stuck in the room. Xiao Ling'er warmed hot tea in the pavilion, gave snacks, and warmed tea with Cen Xue in the cold wind.
"Maybe it's fate. I liked you at first sight and thought we would become close friends." Naturally, Cen Xue would not tell her the truth. Not everyone can know this secret.
The maid brewed the tea, and Cen Xue took a sip of the fragrant jasmine tea. It was fragrant and pleasant. Ling'er was indeed a lover of scented tea. Thinking of this, Yu Wu was also a lover of scented tea. Could it be that all women here like it?
Is this it? Unknowingly, I also fell in love with this fragrant and pleasant taste.
"By the way, Yu Wu is getting married next month, and I'm still worried about what gift to give her?" Ling'er suddenly exclaimed, and her brows immediately furrowed.
"This..." Cen Xue hasn't thought about it yet and can't help her.
The two looked at each other and smiled. This is really a difficult question. They are both noble people, so they should not be lacking anything, but they still have to give gifts. What should I give? This does require some thought.
"######, Mr. Wang Sun is here." A young maid with an unfamiliar face suddenly jumped out of nowhere.
Xiao Ling'er put down the tea cup in her hand, looked at the immature maid in front of her with a slight dissatisfaction and said: "Mu'er, didn't you see that Concubine Xue is here? You are so rash, what if you hit the empress?
good?"
After hearing what ### said, the little maid looked at the gorgeous woman next to ###, knelt down on the ground, kowtowed and said: "Your Majesty, please atone for your sins. Mu'er did not mean to offend your Majesty. I hope you will."
I beg your Majesty, please don’t execute Mu’er!”
Cen Xue looked at the trembling maid, then looked back at Ling'er. She wondered what happened to Ling'er today. She didn't seem to be angry with the maid?
Ling'er knew her question and winked at her, asking her to cooperate with him.
Cen Xue didn't know what she was doing. But she understood what she meant. She lowered her head and looked at the little girl in front of her and said slowly: "Get up. Today, I know that you are also unintentional. Next time, please be careful."
Remember, when the master is here, no matter where you are, you can't make any noise."
"Thank you for your forgiveness, Mu'er. I will remember it." The maid stood up slowly, not daring to raise her head to look at her master.
"Master Wang Sun is talking about Wang Sun Yu, the son of a great scholar, right?" Turning back to the topic, Cen Xue looked at Ling'er and asked.
"Well, it's him." She replied cheerfully.
"I haven't seen what he looks like yet? What's his character like? Why not let him join us?" Cen Xue's mouth twitched, curious about what the man Ling'er fell in love with would be like.
Yu Wu once mentioned this person to her when she entered the palace, but she has never seen him before. Is he tall or short? Is he fat or thin? Is he knowledgeable? Or is he just a playboy who only shows off his literary skills?
"Well, then you must not embarrass him." Xiao Ling'er replied, with a blush on her cheeks.
"Mu'er, go and bring Mr. Wang Sun here. I want to meet him." Cen Xue ordered Mu'er who was still standing there.
Mu'er did not dare to stay for a long time. After receiving the message from the empress, she immediately went to lead Prince Wang and Sun Gong to the backyard.
As soon as she left, Ling'er did not forget to explain to Cen Xue her abnormality just now: "Mu'er is the girl I picked up when I went to burn incense with my elder brother last time. She was covered with injuries at that time. I heard from her that she was doing
She did something wrong and was beaten by her master to sneak out like this. I am training her today because I want her to get rid of her aggressive personality. You and I are here today. If someday a distinguished guest comes to the house, I will send her to the house.
It’s not good to offend someone.”
"So that's it. I think that little girl's temperament isn't stable enough yet. Maybe it's because she's still young. Don't be impatient and teach her slowly..." Cen Xue nodded. It turns out that what Ling'er did was also
Think about that girl.
While the two were talking, Mu'er led Wang Sunyu into the backyard. Zhuque and Xuanwu were both protecting Concubine Xue from a distance. It was really strange to see the little maid leading a man to the backyard, because they were still there.
I don’t know the relationship between Wang Sunyu and Ling’er.
