Sima Jue, whom I hadn't seen for several days, finally showed up. For the first time, he no longer had a sullen face. He had breakfast with me and chatted with me without saying anything. It made me feel uneasy! I wondered in my heart whether something was wrong with him.
You want me to do it? It was like this in the mansion before, so I couldn't help but tense up.
Having said that, even if it is, do I still have to cooperate with him in "performing"?
After thinking about it, I feel that I have to cooperate and "act well". If the cold war continues like this, I probably won't get out of this house one day.
She acted as if nothing had happened and chatted with him for a few innocuous words with a smile on her face. Both parties intentionally or unintentionally avoided the other's sensitive words.
It wasn't until Wang Wu's shout came from outside, "Your Majesty, it's time to set off." We stopped talking nonsense.
Where is he going? I looked at him.
Seemingly sensing my thoughts, he said: "I'm going to participate in the Erma tribe's sacrificial activities. It's a good idea for you to stay at home." He looked at me with soft eyes and reached out to gently stroke the bun next to my ear.
He was silent for a moment and then said, "I'll try to come back to accompany you during dinner tomorrow, wait for me!"
It was rare for him to lower himself, and I couldn't be too pretentious, so I nodded along with his words. Suddenly I felt something was wrong. There was a certain warmth hidden in his words. Where was this?
She thought quickly in her mind, and took the opportunity to say in a soft and coquettish voice: "Let me go too, I don't want to hold it back in the house anymore." Seeing his hesitation, she quickly begged him in a low, drawn-out voice,
"Okay? I promise to listen to you and not cause you any trouble!" Oh my god! I feel so numb to myself.
Perhaps I have never seen me beg him in such a charming and low-profile manner. He blinked his bright eyes and looked at me blankly for a moment. I was secretly worried. Could it be that I had overacted? I knew I was acting coquettishly.
Sorry, no wonder he lost his mind.
Finally, he coughed slightly and closed his eyes, saying, "You'd better stay safe in the Governor's Mansion, I'll leave Wang Wu to protect you." My tense nerves relaxed, and I was secretly happy, but I still tried:
"It's too boring for me to be alone without anyone to argue with. Just let me stay with you!"
He put down the tea cup and said, "No!" I felt relieved and relieved, and put on a wilting look and got him a mink fur coat to put on.
Seeing him go out, I immediately became excited and jumped back and forth restlessly like a bird about to be released from its cage.
He patiently estimated when Sima Jue would be far away and then went to find Lou Yang. He had not had a good conversation with Lou Yang since he failed to escape and came back, and he did not know if he was in the Governor's Mansion at this time.
While I was excited, I heard footsteps coming from outside. As soon as the door curtain was lifted, Sima Jue came back again. It really shocked me. I couldn't free myself from my own thoughts for a while. I forgot to speak and just blinked in confusion.
Look at him with eyes.
He calmly threw me a set of men's clothes and said, "Change into it and come with me!" I continued to be stunned, but I replied with a clear mind, "Can you not go?"
"Huh?" He looked at me puzzled, "You don't want to go?"
I hesitated, tried to stabilize my mind, and complained to myself that I had overacted, "Just now, I just wanted to go, but now I feel it's too cold outside and I don't want to go." He frowned slightly, his eyes were sharp and as if
Staring at me thoughtfully, I hurriedly covered it up with a guilty conscience, "I can't ride a horse well, and besides, I can easily be discovered among your soldiers."
"You don't need to worry, just stay by my side and act as my personal soldier." He said.
I wanted to say more, but I was afraid of arousing his suspicion, so I had to say: "You also said that this place is not safe, so...let Lou Yang go with you!" I said this because I wanted to know if Lou Yang would be arrested.
He did something secretly!
His eyes turned cold and he snorted coldly, "Is this the reason why you don't go?"
As for me, I can't change my frankness. I raised my head and said confidently: "Even so, he was sent by my father and mother to protect me. If he doesn't go, I won't go either."
He made a face, hurriedly and softened his voice and said: "Think about it, you will definitely not have time to pay attention to me when you go. Even if you do, others will definitely doubt your relationship with me, a private soldier. Isn't it true that I have been exposed and treated you very badly?"
It's not good. The other people's martial arts are not as good as Lou Yang, so you should feel most at ease when he protects me, unless you don't believe in yourself, or you are just pretending to be worried about my safety!"
He sneered and said: "Do you believe him so much? Have you ever asked your father, the emperor and your mother? How much do you know about him?"
I opened my mouth and was speechless. Sima Jue was right. I couldn't give a definite answer to these questions. I just listened to Lou Yang's side of the story.
Seeing that I was at a loss for words, he changed his tone and softened his face and said, "Change on as soon as possible, I'll wait for you outside." After saying that, he walked out, and when he got to the door, he sternly said to me, "Then let Lou Yang do his best.
It's his fault, I will kill him if you have one hair on your head!" After saying that, he strode away.
That's not bad, my mood is like the warm sunshine of spring that immediately shines brightly, and I dress up in high spirits.
Sima Jue left Zhou Hongan behind to guard the city. He only took Wang Wu, Song Chu and a dozen other soldiers to participate in the Erma tribe's sacrificial activities.
As soon as I walked out of the gate of the Governor's Mansion, I felt depressed again. What a great opportunity to leave while he was away was wasted. It was really not what I wanted. I had to follow him to endure the cold and watch sacrifices to the dead. It was so miserable.
It was boring. I started to curse in my heart.
As soon as the cold wind blew, the mourning platform woke up. Looking at him sitting on the horse with his back straight in front of me, I gritted my teeth. He must have planned to let me go, and he got into his way again, hateful guy!
…
Snowflakes were falling in the sky again. I was dressed as a man, with my eyebrows thickened, and I was huddled in a cotton cloak. Because I was pretending to be Sima Jue's soldier, I couldn't wear mink fur. The weather was too cold, and I was shivering while riding on the horse.
.
I looked at Lou Yang behind me, he looked at me with bright eyes, and then I looked at Sima Jue in front of me, he looked back at me coldly from time to time.
Maybe he couldn't stand the way Lou Yang and I were "glaring" at each other from time to time, so he slowed down and walked alongside me, and asked me in a low voice, "Are you regretting it?"
I regretted it so much! He sniffed, forced the corner of his mouth to answer, and asked: "The weather is a little cool?" He didn't say anything, and he didn't know what he ordered Wang Wu as he rode forward, and saw Wang Wu galloping away on his horse.
.
When I was holding a stick of incense, I saw Wang Wu coming back and handing something to Sima Jue. Sima Jue came to my side again, looked at me and Lou Yang coldly, and stuffed something into my hand. I immediately felt a warm feeling.
It was a hand stove. I grinned at him. It turned out that this man was not that annoying. He glared at me and Lou Yang unappreciatively, snorted and ran to the front.
I curled my lips, I was really unpopular with others, I had done something good but no one could say anything to praise me, I just kept the stove in my arms.
In the evening, we arrived at the Xingling Palace, the residence of the Erma tribe. Cobalufo personally welcomed Sima Jue to their residence, arranged dinner and said a lot of polite and grateful words.
Since I was Sima Jue's personal soldier, I was with Wang Wu, Song Chu and a dozen other people. I looked at the humble appearance of the tall and burly Ke Balufo and hid aside and asked Song Chu quietly, "This man is not a rebellious minister."
A thief? Why did the prince come to participate in their sacrificial activities?"
Song Chu glanced around, bowed slightly and replied in a low voice: "Returning to the princess, when the prince first arrived here, the Erma tribe did not pay attention to the prince, comparing the prince to the traitor Fan Pengcheng, until he saw that the prince personally led the troops.
With no effort, he regained the lost land plundered by the Shiguo people, chased them away from the border, and even wiped out his entire clan."
Song Chu sighed with regret when he said this, "It's a pity that Zhao Zhantuo, the leader of the Shiguo people, escaped by chance. When Ke Balufo was a cunning old fox, when he saw this situation, he said that he had been bullied by Fan Pengcheng before.
He had no choice but to listen to Zhao Zhantuo's words. He also said that he was shocked by the prince's talent and strategy and was willing to rebuild the old friendship. Moreover, for the sake of peace on the border, the prince did not adopt the method of extermination, but implemented a "tolerant" strategy. As long as Erma
The Erma tribe laid down their weapons and returned the plundered land without pursuing any further investigation. They even asked the emperor to return the title of Northland County King to Ke Balufo. How could he not be grateful for the respectful gift? The Erma tribe is the largest alien race here.
, Your Majesty came to participate this time to show other restless foreign races that our Northern Jin army is not a villain like the one led by Fan Pengcheng, but an army of benevolence and virtue."
I nodded. The "heroic talent and strategy" is such a high hat for Sima Jue. He has finally rectified his name as the "Prince of Chan Zen". I really want to see how he can command thousands of troops with a "heroic talent and strategy".
After dinner, Lou Yang and I stayed in the room on the left and right of Sima Jue. He was really good at making arrangements. I saw him talking to Wang Wu, Song Chu and others.
I arrived at Lou Yang's room, "I want to take this opportunity to leave?" I asked anxiously when I saw him.
Lou Yang nodded at me with a firm look, "It's not a good time at this time. There are many people on guard around, so we can only act according to the opportunity tomorrow."
I nodded, thought about something again, and asked, "Why didn't you chase after me when I escaped that day?"
Lou Yang sighed and said, "I knew it as soon as you left the gate of the Governor's Mansion, but you were surrounded halfway and were injured. When you escaped, you saw Sima Jue and his men chasing you, so I knew he must be looking for you. The injury affected you
Itinerary, until I see him rescuing you, I have to rush back again." At this point, Lou Yangfu sighed, "I was still suspected by him, so I had to pretend to stay in the house to save my life."
I suddenly understood why he was lying on his side on the roof in the snow that day, having fun. "Is your injury healed?" I looked at him and asked worriedly.
"It's okay, you don't have to worry."
In order not to let Sima Jue see it, he must have been hurt a lot, so he couldn't help but apologize: "I have hurt you."
"Sirou, why are you so polite to me? You have forgotten that it is my duty to protect your safety." He pretended to be relaxed and said, "Wait for my news tomorrow."
"Hmm." I thought for a moment and finally expressed my doubts, "The people who intercepted and killed you and the people who chased me and Rong Jinglan must have been the same group!"
Lou Yang nodded, "It must be, this person should be very familiar with us, otherwise how would he know that I would chase after him? Don't forget that you are pretending to be Rong Jinglan's personal soldier, how did this person know?"
I remembered that Rong Jinglan seemed to have picked up something from the killer. He was too far away to see what it was, but the doubts in his heart were slowly being resolved. He said, "I guess Rong Jinglan must know who did it. She is here."
I didn’t say it on purpose, which led to the idea of killing me later.”
After hearing this, Lou Yang sighed and said, "Sirou, I was too careless and almost let you..."
"Stop blaming yourself. Isn't this good for me?" I interrupted him and pretended to be relaxed, "Let's think about how to leave tomorrow!"
Thinking of leaving Sima Jue again, a slight feeling of melancholy arose in my heart. Could it be that I was deceived by his sugar-coated bullets.
"We have to plan well..."
"Prince Yue, are you in the house? I'm here to see you." I was about to plan how to leave with Lou Yang when I heard a sharp female voice coming from the courtyard.
Lou Yang and I looked at each other, were we looking for Sima Jue? I rushed to the door, opened it a small crack, and peeked out. Lou Yang also walked over quickly and peeked out from the crack in the door above my head.
.
In the courtyard, illuminated by the white snow and the light from the room, a girl in red stood smiling with two maids.
