Chapter 75 Face

Of course it is beautiful, but Gu Junqing looks as if he wants to say something but is hesitant.

Qi Yunjin frowned: "Just say what you want to say. How can a grown man be so indecisive?"

In this case, Gu Junqing could only look at him expressionlessly and said in a low voice:

"Your Majesty, when you are out in the open, there are many people around, so it is better not to get lost."

Is this to make him stay with her?

Qi Yunjin's face darkened. He wanted to scold her but then thought better of it. It was a rare day out today and he didn't want the scolding to ruin his mood. Despite this, he still stuffed the lantern in her hand and turned around to walk towards the river where there were few people.

The steps under his feet were bluestone steps covered with mosses, full of spring and damp. Qi Yunjin squatted down and lit the wick of the lantern in his hand. You can write on the side of the lantern. Generally speaking, many people who light lanterns will write a few words on the side of the lantern before putting it in the water. However, he didn't write anything, as if he had no wishes.

Seeing this, Gu Junqing couldn't help but ask him: "Why didn't the emperor write a few words? Even if you don't believe it, it's a good omen."

Qi Yunjin did not answer her question, but looked at her and asked:

"You didn't write it either?"

She choked. Since he was unwilling to answer, she decided not to ask any more questions.

"It's just a happy painting, making a wish or something. Even if there are gods in the world, even if my wish comes true, it is a gift and alms from God, which may disappear one day. Besides, where do gods come from in the world? They are just imaginary things imagined by the people..." "It's better to rely on yourself"

Gu Junqing looked at Qi Yunjin with a complicated feeling as he suddenly spoke a lot of words in front of him. It could be seen that he did not believe in Buddha or gods. Perhaps the night was too dark, the moonlight was too bright, and the cold wind of early spring was also a bit gentle, which made him speak out of his feelings at the moment.

She didn't know what to say, so she just squatted down silently and put the lantern in her hand into the water.

Two plain lanterns floated along the Shengjiang River in the capital city in the quiet and peaceful starry night. The cicadas chirped, frogs croaked, birds flew, and people hustled all around. They slowly drifted to a place the two men did not know. They drifted away. There was no trace of the lanterns on the lake anymore. The two men left and went to another place.

Gu Junqing didn’t know what fun there was in the capital. After all, she often spent a lot of time fighting in the frontier and rarely had the time to calm down and take a closer look at the capital that she had guarded for two lifetimes.

Seeing that she knew nothing, Qi Yunjin felt an inexplicable emotion in his heart. Perhaps it was sympathy or mutual admiration. He didn't understand, so he didn't bother to think about it and took him to the stall. After all, this person didn't eat much at dinner and his appetite was as small as a woman.

Gu Junqing looked at the slightly worn tables and chairs sitting on the stall in front of her. Opposite her was the emperor, the supreme ruler of the world. She never expected that one day he would bring her to this ordinary little stall with nothing special to eat a bowl of beef noodles. He didn't put on any airs at all, as if he was born to be this ordinary.

At this time, they were sitting in a corner, and they took off the masks on their faces, revealing two exquisite and beautiful faces.

The stall owner was making noodles for the two customers who had just arrived. He subconsciously glanced at where the two were sitting. Unexpectedly, he saw that they both had stunning looks. His dark face was dazed and his eyes were full of amazement. So he couldn't help but put a few more pieces of beef in.

Gu Junqing looked at the bowl of noodles in front of her, which had more meat than noodles, and frowned slightly. She looked at the opposite side in silence. Qi Yunjin also noticed it. After looking at Gu Junqing's thin body, he picked up the chopsticks and gave most of the meat in his bowl to her. Gu Junqing could no longer see where the noodles were.

She glanced at someone opposite her with some annoyance, and her hand holding the chopsticks was a little at a loss, not knowing where to start.

She had no choice but to put down her chopsticks. After thinking about it, she realized that there was really no way to refuse. She couldn't waste it either, so she had to bite the bullet and accept it and thank him:

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness, Master Huang. I would be disrespectful to refuse it."

Looking at the bowl of meat, Gu Junqing started eating slowly. She only ate half a bowl until the person in front of her finished eating.

When Gu Junqing saw the emperor holding up his face and looking at her lazily while she was eating, her heart sank and she ate faster.

After paying the money, Qi Yunjin didn't know where to go. He stood there, waiting for Gu Junqing, who was digesting the food slowly and walking behind him.

At this time, they were groping in the corner. There were almost no people here, only some little beggars huddled aside and several other beggars standing in front of the little beggar and bullying him. They looked to be in their thirties. They squatted down and no one knew what they were fighting for. Gu Junqing didn't want to care about it. After all, this kind of thing was not uncommon. She had seen it so many times that she was a little numb. After all, she had been there herself, and it would not be good if the little beggar who was rescued got entangled with her because of this.

In her previous life, she saved a beggar out of pity, but in the end, the beggar betrayed her and joined King An's men!

Every sting makes you wiser, Gu Junqing knows this truth very well.

However, although she thought so, Qi Yunjin, who was standing beside her, did not. He just picked up a stone from the ground, shook it in his hand, and then threw the stone into the alley, hitting the head of the person who was bullying the little beggar.

The man was robbing just fine when he was suddenly attacked. He quickly covered his head and raised his head with a ferocious look, wanting to know which bastard dared to hit him on the head!

When I looked up, I saw two men standing not far away. They were wearing ordinary clothes and wearing the kind of fancy masks sold at stalls. The shorter one was probably not even twenty years old. He had nothing in his hands and was thin. He looked like a pretty boy.

Thinking this in his mind, the man turned his gaze from Gu Junqing to Qi Yunjin beside her. His gaze paused at the fine white jade pendant on his waist, and then a hint of greed flashed in his eyes. He ignored the little beggar behind him and his eyes were full of the jade pendant on Qi Yunjin's waist.

The other man saw the person who had just been robbing suddenly scream in pain, and then he covered his head and turned around to look behind him.

Following his line of sight, he saw Qi Yunjin standing next to Gu Junqing. He was stunned at first, then he saw the man next to him covering his head and winking at him, so he let go of his hand and stopped trying to snatch the thing in the arms of the little beggar behind him. The two of them rushed forward together without caring about anything.

Both of them knew some martial arts, so they acted very arrogantly in this area. The beggars nearby did not dare to mess with them. Whenever these two people knew about something delicious or interesting, they would definitely grab one or two.
