Return with you

"My lord, Chang'an implores my lord and Chang'an to enter the palace together to clear up the grievances of the Jun family."

Huangfu took a spoonful of white fungus and lotus seed soup and put it into his mouth, tasted it for a while before swallowing it, "Chang'an, don't worry, wait for two more days, brother Huang is in a fit of anger, don't go and ask for trouble. "

"But..." Liu Changan put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, and stared at the very leisurely Huangfu Duan with an expression of unwillingness to let go.

Putting a piece of glutinous steamed white chicken into his own bowl, Huangfu waved his hand, and the black shadow on the beam knelt respectfully in front of her.

"Let the storytellers in the teahouses and restaurants in the city start telling stories from the booklet I gave you from tomorrow, and tell them that as long as they talk for two days, they can get a reward of one gold."

"My subordinate understands."

Liu Changan was at a loss, completely unaware of what kind of medicine was sold in Prince Duan's gourd.

"This king can guarantee Chang'an that when he goes to court on the third day, he will return justice to the prime minister."

"Thank you, Lord."

But for two or three days, she can afford to wait, not to mention if it is not for the help of Prince Duan, only in her capacity as a general, she does not know when she will be able to appeal to overturn the case.

Liu Chang'an just stepped into the station with his front foot, when his back foot was stopped by Ma Ben.

"General Liu, our First Prince wants to see you."

His heart skipped a beat, but he couldn't frighten Liu Chang'an who crawled out from the pile of dead people.

"Has the eldest prince's wind and chill improved?"

"Thanks to the blessing of the imperial physician of the Yang Dynasty, the Eldest Prince's condition has improved, and Ma Ben thanked the Emperor of the Yang Dynasty on behalf of the Eldest Prince."

"Since your eldest prince is looking for me, please ask General Ma to lead the way."

Following behind Ma Ben, Liu Chang'an would look up at the beams every time he walked. When he was approaching the eldest prince's room, Liu Chang'an finally saw a handful of black cloth strips protruding from the beams, and then went up Disappear.

"Eldest Prince, General Liu will bring you here."

"Cough cough... come in... cough cough cough..."

After pushing open the door, Liu Chang'an finally saw the true face of the First Prince of Fu Kingdom.

Pale face like a ghost, a pair of straight eyes like a goshawk, and the hand holding the teacup is also terrifyingly white.

"Yang Dynasty general Liu Chang'an has met the First Prince."

"My prince remembers you. It was you who brought people to burn my Fu country's food and grass for nearly a year, and made my Fu country the loser!"

Mu Cang's harsh words came straight out, and the blue veins on his hands seemed to turn black.

"Victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs. The situation of the battle has been decided. I hope that the eldest prince will regard peace as the most important thing. Don't ruin the friendship between Fu Kingdom and Yang Dynasty because of me." Liu Chang'an respectfully cupped his fists and bowed to Mu Cang, his tone was Neither cold nor cold.

"Cough cough... cough cough..."

Mu Cang started to cough again, his head was lowered so he couldn't see his expression, Liu Changan only maintained his bent over posture, motionless.

"This prince is not the kind of person who has no temper, ahem...General Liu, look at the things on the table before it's too late."

Ma Ben took out a stack of things from his sleeve and placed them on the table near Chang'an.

One, two, three, ... ten.

The sum of ten 1000 taels silver bills is exactly 1 taels.

"Prince, what do you mean by...?" After seeing the value of the silver notes in front of him, it would be false to say that he was amazed, it was several times higher than the gold and silver rewards from the emperor.

"1 taels is enough for you, a little general, to eat and drink for a few lifetimes. You have a rich family, a beautiful woman with good wine, what do you want? General Liu, this kind of blessing of equal people should be enjoyed earlier, don't you think? ?”

"The eldest prince doesn't need to beat around the bush, just say what you have to say." With such a generous gesture, the eldest prince thinks that he has something to ask of her.

Zhu Yan, Minister of Dali Temple, had already fallen, and Fu Guo should be regarded as being removed by them in the Yang Dynasty. In this way, the eldest prince planned to buy her, Liu Chang'an, as the new internal adviser.

"General Liu knows it well." Mu Cang stared at Liu Changan and continued, "And as far as this prince knows, you are not that loyal to this Yang Dynasty. Prince Yangchao is messing around, if your emperor hadn't asked you to protect this prince, General Liu would probably not want to come out even if he lingered in Ruanrouxiang."

Putting down the teacup in his hand, stretching out his fingers to rest on a stack of banknotes, Mu Cang's eyes were cloudy, "This 1 taels is a deposit, how about buying Liu Chang'an's loyalty from you?"

Ignoring Mu Cang's wink, he glanced at his pale and gloomy face, and it was a long time after his eyes moved to the 1 tael bank note, before Liu Changan said, "Since the eldest prince knows that my ambition is not here, I will also speak frankly with the eldest prince, Chang'an only wants to be free and unrestrained, and is not loyal to anyone."

After bowing to Mu Cang again, Liu Changan turned his head and walked towards the door.

Ma Ben pulled the cockroach standing on the side, and stabbed at Liu Changan, Changan dodged sideways, and the red tassel fell on her shoulder.

"General Liu, don't rush to leave. This prince only needs your loyalty for a few days. When this prince leaves your Yang Dynasty, you, Liu Chang'an, can continue to roam around with your dandy prince."

"General Liu is still not tempted by such a deal with all benefits but no harm?"

The room fell into silence, and the cry of magpies outside the room was particularly obvious.

Raising his hand to hold the sharp spear head around his neck, Liu Changan turned his back to Mu Cang and Ma Ben, unscrewed the spear head and the red tassel from the wooden stick, and nailed it on the table with his backhand, blood flowed down the blade It flowed down, soaking the gray tablecloth black and staining the small corner of the bank note red, "deal."

Mu Cang regained consciousness in the sudden panic, gritted his teeth, took out a small porcelain bottle from his sleeve, and threw it to Ma Ben, who caught the bottle and walked to Liu Changan, and handed it to her.

"This is the ten-day powder specially made by my prince. As the name suggests, ten-day powder, if you don't take the antidote after ten days, you will bleed to death from your seven orifices."

Pulling out the cork, poured out a red pill, Liu Changan raised his head and swallowed the pill into his stomach.

"Cheer up! Ma Ben, hand over the silver ticket to General Liu, and go out with him, the prince is tired."

"Yes, I will retire at the end."

Leaving the eldest prince's room, Ma Bensai gave Liu Chang'an 10 taels of silver and a bottle of gold sore medicine, "We are also grasshoppers on the same rope. I offended you just now. General Liu, don't take it to heart. The medicine is passed down from my ancestors, it works very well, take it."

Looking at Ma Ben, who was grinning heartily, Liu Changan felt much relieved, "Thank you, General Ma."

The sun is setting, it's time to go back to Duanwang's mansion.

However, I learned from the housekeeper that Prince Duan and Concubine Duan were going to the palace for a family banquet, so after leaving the front, the prince arranged for the kitchen to deliver the dinner directly to the East Wing.

As soon as Liu Changan returned to the house, the meals were delivered, one for her room and one for Jing Xuan's.

Looking at the right hand that was injured by himself, he turned to take out the food in the food box with his left hand.

In the next few days, I don't know what will happen, but I still have to let the wound recover as soon as possible.

However, although the chopsticks are just two thin bamboo sticks, but if you change your left hand, they just don't obey, no matter how hard Ren Changan tries, he can't pick up a vegetable leaf.

Liu Changan, who was up against the chopsticks, did not hear the knock on the door.

Holding a bowl of old duck soup with bamboo shoots, Jun Lian knocked on the door for a long time, but there was no response from Chang An. Since the kitchen brought dinner, Chang An should have returned.

Jun Lian also started to eat, but when he opened the food box, he saw two bowls of the same soup, presumably the kitchen misplaced them, and put both bowls of old duck soup into a food box, Jun Lian thought Send another bowl to Chang'an.

After hearing the crisp sound of tiles breaking in the room, Jun Lian no longer hesitated, opened the door and went directly into Liu Changan's room.

"Jing...Jing Xuan!"

The left hand is still holding the chopsticks in a strange posture, broken pieces of porcelain plates are scattered at the feet, and the three pieces of plum blossom cakes that were originally presented have also rolled down to different places. Liu Changan looked at Jun Lian who pushed the door in astonishment, For a while, he sat on the stool.

With a panoramic view of the messy situation, Jun Lian noticed the gauze wrapped in Chang An's right hand and the faint blood red.

"I... accidentally..."

"You are hurt."

What she wanted to explain was interrupted by Jun Lian, but Jun Lian ignored her embarrassment and turned to pay attention to the injury on her hand.

Raising his right hand, Liu Changan smiled at Jun Lian, "It's just a small injury, Jing Xuan came to look for me without dinner, is there something urgent?"

Pursing her lips without saying a word, Jun Lian put the soup bowl in her hand on the table, rolled up her sleeves, picked up the ashes-stained plum cake and put it on the plate containing the residue.

Just as Liu Chang'an was about to open his mouth, Jun Lian turned around again, went to get the broom brush placed in the corner, and swept the broken porcelain pieces on the floor to the corner of the table to pile them up, and then called the boy to clean them up.

After brushing the dust off his clothes, Jun Lian stood beside Liu Changan, hesitating for a long time, so long that Liu Changan felt uncomfortable and wanted to escape from the wooden bench he was sitting on.

Sighing lightly, Jun Lian took away the chopsticks from Chang An's hand, "Let me feed you."

"What... what?!" Liu Changan felt that not only his hands were injured, but even his ears were damaged. Jing Xuan...how could she say that she should...feed her...such words.

Carefully picking out the fishbone, Jun Lian picked up the fish meat and handed it to Liu Changan's mouth, "Open your mouth."

Liu Changan felt that her eyes were also hallucinating...

The person in front of him had an unbelievable expression on his face, but it was a little different from his elder brother's gentle and expectant smile.

"When I was seven years old, I saw a little squirrel on a tree, and my heart was full of joy. For me, my brother climbed up a tree higher than the roof to catch the little squirrel for me, but when I came down, my foot accidentally stepped on the air. Brother fell to the ground and broke his hand." Putting the fish in a small bowl and putting away the chopsticks, Jun Lian sat on the wooden bench next to him while talking, unconsciously holding the jade pendant in his sleeve, "doctor Said that my elder brother's hand should rest and not move, it happened that my father and mother went to the palace for a banquet early that day, and only my elder brother and I were left to eat together. At that time, I was crying all the time, because I caused my elder brother to break his hand."

"My brother squatted in front of me, pinched my face, comforted me with a smile, and said that as long as I feed him dinner, my brother's hands will be healed." Speaking of his young age, he was immediately fooled by his brother In the past, Jun Lian pursed her lips and smiled, her eyes shining. "Brother finished speaking, sat down at the table and opened his mouth, waiting for me to feed him."

"After only feeding a few pieces of pastries, my brother said that he already felt full. He waved his arm at me a few times and told me that I was fine. At that time, I foolishly believed it."

Reminiscing about the beautiful past, Jun Lian seemed to have changed into a bright and joyful person, instead of looking down on all the coldness.

Liu Changan thought, perhaps, Jun Lian like this should be the real Jun Lian.

"Afterwards, my brother went out on a study tour, and I rarely had the chance to see him again..."

Seeing Jun Lian slowly returning to her normal appearance again, Liu Chang'an felt a little distressed, forgot the identity he was pretending at the moment, and covered Jun Lian's hand on the table, with pity in his eyes.

The back of his hand was touched, and Jun Lian subconsciously tensed up and trembled.

"sorry Sorry……"

Sensing something was wrong, Chang An immediately took away his left hand and put it behind his back, and began to apologize persistently, with the idea of ​​chopping off his left hand.

Knowing that Chang'an didn't do it intentionally, Jun Lian eased the fear that had just arisen suddenly, and picked up the chopsticks again, "Don't worry about Chang'an, let's have dinner first, as a substitute for my brother, it helped me think about it. "

Jun Lian loves Jun Qi, Jun Qi loves Jun Lian, such a loving brother and sister, but because of themselves, Yin and Yang are separated... Liu Changan lowered his eyebrows and fell into self-blame.

"Chang'an? Chang'an?"

"Ah...Jing Xuan...oh...yes..."

"I'll think about it later, come on, open your mouth."

It was the first time he was fed by someone at such an age, Liu Changan's face turned red, he didn't dare to look at Jun Lian's expression, he closed his eyes slightly, and opened his mouth to bite the fish meat held by the chopsticks into his mouth.

God knows how she managed to finish this day's dinner. She couldn't taste the saltiness, sweetness and sourness of the dishes. She didn't live like a year, but like a year.

"Jing...Xuan, it's alright...I'm full..." Before he knew it, he ate more than usual, Liu Changan hurriedly stood up from the stool, and finished speaking in embarrassment.

"Okay." Jun Lian glanced at Can Zhi on the table, put down his chopsticks, and stood up, "Then I'll go back to my room first."

"Ah."

It suddenly occurred to her that Jun Lian hadn't eaten dinner, after such a long time, the dishes delivered to Jun Lian's room must have been completely cold.

"Jing Xuan!"

Just as Jun Lian crossed the threshold, she heard Chang An calling her, and turned around.

"I'll ask the kitchen to bring over some more food. The one in your room is probably cold, so it's not suitable for eating. Just wait, I'll go and come back soon." After speaking, Liu Changan directly used lightness kung fu, The kitchen of the palace was looted.

The flickering figure disappeared quickly, and Jun Lian had no time to open his mouth to refuse, so he had no choice but to go back to his room and sit still in front of a table of cold dishes.

Recalling Chang'an's shy expression just now, and the extremely careful care of her on weekdays, for a moment, Jun Lian felt that Chang'an was not like an ordinary man at all, but more like a woman like her.
