Chapter 213 You want to live a long life
Jiu'er watched him approach slowly, watched him close his eyes, and looked at the face he liked so much, his face flushed instantly, and he slipped out from under his arm neatly.
Su Jingxun stopped at the same spot, and after a long while, she collected her mood, and asked her with a smile: "Do you hate me coming close?"
"Of course not." Jiu'er couldn't say anything, she remembered Jiang Qijing before, obviously he was caught off guard when he approached, but at that time her heart would beat faster, Xiao Jing said, it was the love between men and women.
"Why is that?" Su Jingxun was puzzled, and he never thought that the wine who liked to cling to him since he was a child would reject him.
Jiu'er frowned, and she couldn't figure out why, she just felt that she shouldn't be like this.
She looked up at Su Jingxun's sad look, couldn't bear it, but said with a smile: "Xiao Xun, didn't you say that men and women can't understand each other?"
"But……"
"I'm worried that you will move out of the palace again and never see me again." Jiu'er recalled the past, she always remembered this matter.
Seeing her like this, Su Jingxun finally sighed softly and said with a smile: "Forget it, it's getting late, I'll take you back to the palace, let's go for a walk, shall we talk?"
Seeing that he wasn't pushing her anymore, Jiu'er breathed a sigh of relief, nodded with a smile, and walked slowly in the palace with him.
She walks restlessly, likes to jump and jump, and from time to time kicks small rocks turned up on the road or picks a flower and holds it in her hand to play with, but when she is with Su Jingxun, she is extraordinarily well behaved, she knows Xiaoxun likes her Like a lady of every family, she knows the etiquette and integrity.
"Jiu'er?" Su Jingxun looked at the blushing little man walking obediently beside him, and called her with a smile.
"Huh?" Jiu'er looked up at him, and saw him looking deeply at her and smiling, "Just live with me like this for the rest of your life, okay?"
"OK……"
Before Jiu'er finished speaking, he added: "To live with me for the rest of my life is not like following Prince He, but treating me as a man, your husband."
Jiu'er suddenly understood what he had said: "My fair lady, a gentleman is good, that means the love between a man and a woman, right?"
"Well, there is still a person who is willing to have one heart, and the white head will not be separated." Su Jingxun stopped, looked at her deeply and said.
Jiu'er's heart moved slightly, he stopped and murmured this sentence, the next second he felt a tightness on his waist, and a soft touch came from his lips, carrying the fragrance of Su Jingxun's body, as well as his carefulness and tenderness. trembling.
As night fell, in front of the palace where Jiu'er lived alone, there were still two dimly lit lanterns. Under the shadow of the lights stood a lazily leaning man leaning against the wall. The man raised his hand and looked at the bright moon in the sky without saying anything. He didn't think about anything until the corner of the palace wall, the little figure came back alone.
He stood up slowly and looked at her with a slight smile: "Little girl, do you want to go out of the palace to play?"
"Xiao Jing?" Jiu'er stopped in her tracks, she looked at the man in the light and shadow, and just stood there quietly smiling at herself, which made her feel happy in her heart, and she had an urge to throw herself into his arms.
"Why, half-hearted and unwilling to leave the palace with me? Forget it, the rouge goose breast in the south of the city, the phoenix fetus in the west of the city, and the lotus root flour osmanthus cake in the north of the city. I'll just eat it by myself." Jiang Qijing finished with a smile, Then he moved forward.
Jiu'er stomped his feet: "How can you eat it by yourself!"
Jiang Qijing bent his eyes: "Then you want to go with me?"
"Naturally, I'll bring you two jars of wine later!" After Jiu'er finished speaking, he paused and said softly: "My cousin's family heard that there are two jars of fine wine hidden, do you want to taste it?"
Of course Jiang Qijing agreed, and soon, the two of them left the palace hand in hand, they jumped out easily, and no one stopped them.
Su Simeng is still waiting for Su Jingxun to come out at the gate of the palace. After waiting for a long time, he finally sees him come out, but the coldness around him seems to be more intense.
She went up to meet him two steps ahead, and asked him softly: "Brother, the princess..."
"Go back and tell father that I want to marry the princess." Su Jingxun didn't tell Su Simeng what happened before, because he thought that even if he said it, she wouldn't believe it. After all, she looks innocent and likes to cling to her wine, why? Maybe you already know the love between men and women, and maybe you have already agreed?
He wasn't sure if Jiu'er fell in love with someone else, but for a silly girl like Jiu'er, other men might be able to trick her back with sweet words. Instead of seeing her being cheated, it's better to marry her back first. As for love She will understand what happened in the future, and she will not regret it.
Until Su Jingxun got into the carriage, he was immersed in the fact that he mustered up the courage to kiss Jiu'er before, but was avoided by her twice.
He listened to the sound of the wheels of the carriage driving on the road, and finally closed his eyes, not daring to think about it.
And at this moment, Jiu'er had already arrived at Xu Chengqing's house with Jiang Qijing.
Xu Chengqing was still doing the couple's business with Bao Zhu tonight, and had no idea that his wine cellar had entered a 'guest'.
"Keep your voice down, my uncle treasures these wines very much, we can only drink a little." Jiu'er walked slowly into the wine cabinet carefully.
"Okay." Jiang Qijing responded with a smile, followed her carefully into the wine cellar, smelled the strong aroma of wine, looked at the wine and said: "The smell of wine is too strong here, be careful, don't get drunk. "
"I know, I know, I can drink very well." Jiu'er turned around and hid behind the drunkard in another place, listening to the movement around him vigilantly with big eyes. After making sure that no one had noticed, he led Jiang Qijing In front of a big wooden box, this big wooden box is made of high-quality sandalwood, which shows that we pay attention to it.
When she opened the box, she saw that two large altars of wine had been carefully placed inside, wrapped in soft cloth and hay.
"That's it!" Jiu'er took a deep breath, the aroma of the wine was mellow, she waved her hand behind her, and immediately opened one of the jars, and in an instant, the rich aroma came out, and Jiu'er's little heart was so excited that Jumped out: "Good wine!"
Jiang Qijing looked at this little greedy cat. The little girl also likes some tea and soup. She only likes wine. It seems that their children will not be called such names in the future. Maybe it would be good to call them Chacha.
He saw her flushed face, raised her eyebrows slightly: "Jiu'er, your drinking capacity..."
"Don't worry, you won't get drunk after a thousand cups." Jiu'er said with a smile.
"Really? There are all kinds of wine mixed here." Jiang Qijing kindly reminded.
Jiu'er pouted and snorted, holding the wine jar, he went to the corner to find two bowls, poured a bowl for himself, and poured another bowl for Jiang Qijing, then sealed the wine jar and put it back up.
"If you don't want to drink, I'll drink it myself." After Jiu'er finished speaking, the bowl of wine guzzled down.
Jiang Qijing's eyebrows twitched slightly, why did he feel that something happened to Jiu'er today.
Just as she was thinking, she had gulped down the bowl of wine before she had time to open her mouth.
"Good wine!" She giggled, as if she had started to whet her appetite, she turned her head and wrapped a jug of decades-old wine on the cabinet, uncorked the bottle and started drinking while facing the wine jug.
I didn't finish one jar, so I went to taste another jar, so happy.
She drank happily: "It's been a long time since I've had such a good time, Xiaojing, come quickly, it's all good wine!"
Her voice was not low, and the guards outside finally heard the movement, and immediately shouted inside: "Who is inside!"
Jiang Qijing thought that Jiu'er would calm down with this aggressive scolding, but she actually felt aggrieved, and looked at him pitifully with tears in her eyes: "Xiaojing, he is fierce to me..."
Jiang Qijing didn't expect her to be like this, he wanted to laugh but held back, and said, "If you don't leave, your cousin is coming."
"Uncle...uncle!" Jiu'er immediately regained consciousness, pulled Jiang Qijing to run, and threw the wine jar in his hand with a crackling sound, which immediately alarmed the guards outside.
Jiang Qijing looked at the little girl who was dizzy from drinking, sighed faintly, hugged her and hurried towards the exit, those guards were no match for him.
He quickly came out with Jiu'er in his arms, and went straight over the roof, but within a moment, he shook off the people who were chasing him.
"It's okay." He smiled lightly, and saw the little girl with her arms around his neck looking at him with sparkling eyes. Does she look drunk?
"Wine..."
"Guanguan Jujiu, in Hezhizhou, gentle and graceful man, beautiful woman." She giggled, and before Jiang Qijing could react, she began to cry again.
Looking at this strange drunken state, Jiang Qijing couldn't laugh or cry: "What's the matter? Are you uncomfortable?"
"I want to go to the toilet..." Jiu'er seemed to have something very sad, crying uncontrollably.
Hearing this, Jiang Qijing's ears blushed slightly, and he quickly took her back to his home. The most important thing was that she was drunk, and he didn't allow himself to be too far away from her.
After the maids served her convenience, she was staggered out, her little face was flushed, it could be seen that she was really drunk from drinking too much today, even Jiang Qijing couldn't tell the difference between the bright eyes she had before Looking at his own appearance, whether it is true or not.
"Get hot water first, and wait for the lady to take a bath." He didn't reveal the identity of Jiu'er, and the maids who served were all his confidantes, so he was relieved.
"Yes." The maids responded, but Jiu'er staggered forward a few steps, hugged his neck and hung on his body, said with a smile, "Xiaojing."
"Ok?"
"I want to ask you a question..." She said seriously with a puzzled face.
"Say it."
Jiu'er giggled and said, "Why do you have a tail and I don't?"
Jiang Qijing: "..."
Soon the hot water came, and the maids immediately took Jiu'er in to take a bath, but Jiu'er was really drunk today, and when he was taken away, he kept crying: "Xiao Jing, I want Xiao Jing to woo woo woo Oh, Xiaojing, you bullied me..."
Jiang Qijing has a big head, is this little girl stimulated today?Moreover, he is not too young now, he has already known about men and women, besides, he had already reacted when she stuck to him just now.
He tried his best to restrain the unstable and evil energy in his body, closed his eyes and refused to listen, and wanted to wait for her to wake up before speaking, but suddenly he heard a scream from inside, followed by the sound of someone falling to the ground.
He was startled, and immediately ran in. Just after entering, he saw Jiu'er sitting obediently in the bathtub, and the person who fell on the ground was not a person, but a maid on the side. She looked at the sudden intruder with an innocent face. Jiang Qijing who came in asked strangely, "Xiaojing, why are you here?"
"This is……"
"It was the servant girl who slipped and fell, please forgive me." The maid hurriedly stood up and saluted, but the fall was obviously hard, and her face turned pale.
Hearing this, Jiang Qijing only sent her down, then looked at Jiu'er who was obediently soaking in the water waiting for someone to serve him, and didn't want to disturb the others, so he sent another person away in the room, then said: "Jiu'er Be good, after bathing, I will take you to the city to play."
Jiu'er tilted her head slightly to look at him: "Xiaojing."
"Ok?"
"Men and women are different," she reminded.
Jiang Qijing: "..." Didn't you ask me to serve you after you clamored?
Seeing her stupid look, he was afraid that she would drown herself in the water in a while, so he said: "There are differences between men and women, but we are different." After finishing speaking, he took his large bathrobe He asked, "Can I get up by myself?"
"Yes." Jiu'er nodded obediently, but looked at him puzzled: "But why are we different?"
"When you marry me, we will be honest with each other." Jiang Qijing's peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly.
Jiu'er doesn't know if there is a difference between his relative sincerity and her own, but now she is very excited, and she wants to go out to play, hug him, and kiss him...
She smiled shyly. Seeing her like this, Jiang Qijing didn't dare to look at her again. He only opened his bathrobe to cover his eyes, and said, "Get up, I'll take you out."
"it is good."
The wine was served, followed by the sound of water rushing, before Jiang Qijing could react, he was already wrapped in a bathrobe, his white arms stretched out to hug him, and his small face rubbed against his neck , smiled and said: "Xiaojing, I think, I want to marry you."
Jiang Qijing laughed: "Do you know what it means to marry me?"
"I know, I will love you forever, have children with you, and support you until we grow old." She raised her eyes to look at him, with only Qingming in her eyes: "Xiaojing, I remember everything ten years ago, you said Yes, marry me."
Jiang Qijing looked at her as if he had woken up, his face flushed slightly, but because of her strength, he fell to the ground, and she also pressed on him.
He could feel his heart beating faster, and he called her softly: "Jiu'er..."
No response.
He moved and continued to call her, but there was still no response.
He got up slightly and looked, only to find that she was already fast asleep.
He took a long breath, that's all, she probably didn't know what she was talking about just now.
But if it is true, does it mean that this little girl already has herself in her heart?
The corners of his mouth raised slightly, but he finally stopped talking.
The next day, when the sky was bright, Jiu'er woke up from the dream, but with a splitting headache.
"Princess, you're awake!" Xiaoli hurried over, put down the hangover medicine in her hand, and hurriedly helped her up.
Jiu'er frowned, thinking about what happened yesterday, her face suddenly turned red, she hurriedly lowered her head to look at her clothes, fortunately, she had already changed into her clothes...
Wait, who changed the clothes for her!
She hurriedly grabbed Xiaoli and said, "When did I come back yesterday?"
"This... I don't know, I don't know. I slept very deeply yesterday. When I woke up in the morning, you were lying on the bed." After Xiaoli finished speaking, she said in a low voice: "Princess, what did you do yesterday? Who went drinking?"
Jiu'er tried hard to think about what happened last night, it seemed that she had said something... But what did she say, why can't she remember?
She had a headache, saw the anti-alcoholic medicine on one side, drank a bowl first, and then sat up, but after thinking about it, she felt that nothing would happen, after all, she had seen Xiao Jing Guangguang before, Nothing happened.
Thinking of this, she felt a little more relaxed, and when she was about to stand up, she found a note under the pillow.
She took it out and took a look, and saw that it said 'nothing happened last night'.
Nothing, just nothing?
The stone in Jiu'er's heart also fell, it's okay, it's okay.
She smiled and got up to wash and dress up.
After dressing up, I saw Xiaoling walking quickly, saw that she saluted first, and then said with a smile: "Princess, my mother told you to go over."
"What's the matter?" Jiu'er remembered that he drank several jugs of wine from his cousin's house last night. Hearing this, he thought it was his mother who found out about it.
Xiao Ling hurriedly smiled and said: "Dingbeihou and Mrs. Dingbeihou have come to the palace together. It sounds like they want to marry you, the princess. The empress wants to hear what you mean. If you agree, she will agree. .”
When Jiu'er heard this, he immediately stood up.
Xiaoling thought she was happy, and hurriedly said: "Princess has liked to play with Mr. Su since she was a child, and now she is finally married, so you will definitely agree." She likes Mr. Su, she has been full of talents since she was a child, Although it looks cold, it is hot in the heart.
Jiu'er was a little taken aback when she heard the words, she couldn't distinguish those feelings likes Xiao Xun, but she also likes Xiaomeng, Ding'an, and so on...
Speaking of which, is there a difference?It seems that there is, and it seems that there is no.
She didn't get as happy as Xiaoling, she just thought about it in silence until she arrived at Lin Jinhua's palace.
At that time, Lin Jinzheng was sitting in the top seat, smiling and talking to Dingbeihou and Mrs. Hou at the bottom, Su Simeng and Su Jingxun were also there, Su Jingxun was still so good-looking, with a little cold temperament on his body, today he changed Dressed in black clothes, she looks more mature and stable, and also more handsome.
When Jiu'er watched him smile at her, she remembered his sudden approach last night, her face was slightly hot, and she stepped forward to salute.
Seeing her coming, Lin Jinhua only smiled and said, "Jiu'er, the queen mother called you here, do you know why?"
"I know." Jiu'er responded, but for some reason, after she understood the marriage, she knew that she would spend the rest of her life with Xiao Xun, whom she liked, but she didn't feel particularly excited, and even...worse than going there last night Steal wine and drink happily.
"Then you..." Lin Jinhua was about to ask, but Su Jingxun said, "Princess Weichen waited for so many years, and finally waited for you to grow up. Now you are so abrupt. Please don't blame Weichen for your affection."
Jiu'er turned to look at him, looking at the anticipation and hope in his eyes, the words she was about to say froze.
When Su Jingxun saw her looking at him, his eyes were confused, and he had already guessed what she was going to say just he couldn't... and couldn't bear to just give up like this. He believed that as long as she stayed by his side, he would gradually let her understand his intentions. He also believed that she must not be completely ruthless to him.
He smiled slightly, took out a jade pendant, and said: "Ten years ago, I gave the princess a jade pendant exactly like this one, and I also promised the princess that I would never leave the princess for the rest of my life."
Looking at the jade pendant, Jiu'er thought of the other piece that she had carefully put away, and a strange feeling came up in her heart, which made her confused.
Moreover, looking at Xiao Xun like this, she seemed to have no reason to refuse.
Lin Jinhua just watched silently. Over the years, she has protected her daughter so well that she has made all choices secretly for her, but she can no longer interfere with life-long events. After all, Su Jingxun is also a very good man, steady and responsible, Moreover, he had been childhood sweethearts with Jiu'er since he was a child, and he tolerated all her mischievousness, and loved her very much.
Lin Jinhua smiled lightly: "It seems that you can't make a decision right now, Jiuer, why don't you give Beihou a reply in a few days?"
Naturally, Marquis Dingbei had no choice but to agree, so he hurriedly got up and agreed.
Su Jingxun also stood up, looked at Jiu'er tenderly and said, "Didn't you like the swing in Dingbeihou's Mansion? I have ordered someone to repair it, and you can come over anytime."
"Yeah." Jiu'er nodded, remembering the happy time we played together, and smiled slightly: "Thank you, Xiao Xun."
The corners of Su Jingxun's mouth raised slightly, Lin Jinhua didn't say anything more, and just let them all back down.
When leaving, Su Jingxun was a little hesitant, looking at the still calm wine, he finally left, but there was a heavy stone on his heart.
After he left, Lin Jinhua smiled at Jiu'er who seemed stunned: "Jiu'er doesn't want to marry?"
"I just don't understand." Jiu'er looked at Lin Jinhua, feeling extremely warm, walked up to her with a smile and sat down, leaned against her, and then asked her with a smile: "Mother, what is the relationship between a man and a woman? "
"Jiu'er doesn't understand?"
"I don't understand." Jiu'er shook his head.
Lin Jinhua then asked her: "Do you like Xiao Xun as much as you like Xiao Jing?"
At this question, Jiu'er blinked and looked up at her: "It seems different." She didn't hesitate much, because she had thought about this question yesterday, and she treated Xiao Xun more like a relative, a brother Xiaojing is different, he is a good partner, every time she sees him, her heart beats faster.
Lin Jinhua embraced her with a slight smile, and said: "The empress mother and the emperor father are together because of love, so you see, the empress mother loves the emperor father, and hopes to possess him, so that he is only as good as a woman like me, but compared to him Only good for me, I am willing to sacrifice these, as long as he is good."
Jiu'er seemed to understand but half understood: "If you like it, you are willing to sacrifice?"
"That's not the case. Sacrifice is just a narrow side. The poem says that people will make promises between life and death, and the poem says that they wish to be lovebirds in the sky and twigs in the earth. These are all one-sided understandings. When you like someone, you want to be good for yourself. I also hope he is well, the taste of it can only be known by those who have tasted it, and everyone is different." Lin Jinzheng looked at the slim daughter who has now grown up, and felt dazed, she did not expect her to arrive so soon. the age of marriage.
Jiu'er looked at her and asked, "Queen, Jiu'er understands." Jiu'er laughed.
Lin Jinhua squeezed her small face, looked at the light that was beating in her heart, and bent her eyes.
The whole afternoon, Jiu'er was thinking about how to tell Xiao Xun in the palace, but she couldn't figure it out. She would always think of Jiang Qijing, the night when he lay at the stern of the boat watching the river lanterns and fireworks, the night when he beat up the old bastard, The night when we lay together on the roof and counted the stars, and the night when he kissed himself for the first time...
She held her head halfway, thinking with a smile on her lips.
When Xiaoli led Su Simeng in, she was still smiling.
"Princess, Miss Su is here." Xiaoli reminded.
Only then did Jiu'er raise her head and said joyfully, "Xiao Meng, why are you here suddenly!" After she finished speaking, she noticed that her eyes were red.
Jiu'er was slightly stunned, not knowing what's wrong with her, she quickly got up and said, "Xiao Meng, what's wrong with you."
Su Simeng took her hand, wanted to say, but felt that she shouldn't, but her hand kept shaking because of fear.
Jiu'er hurriedly pulled her and said anxiously: "Don't worry, tell me when something happens, I will definitely help you!"
Su Simeng then said: "Brother was assassinated after he went out this afternoon, and now he is in the mansion, his life and death are uncertain, and he was poisoned, and his face was ruined. He won't let me tell you, but I'm worried... I'm worried If I don't tell you, I won't be able to see you for the last time..." After Su Simeng finished speaking, she sat down on the ground and began to cry bitterly. She couldn't figure out why this happened. Not knowing kung fu, unexpectedly recruiting such a cruel assassination.
Jiu'er's face also turned pale all of a sudden, but she calmed down anyway, and immediately said to Xiaoli: "Go pass on the imperial physician... no, go find it, bring the detoxification pill, and let's go to the Dingbei Hou Mansion immediately!"
"Yes!" Xiaoli didn't expect it to be like this, so she went to call someone.
Soon Jiu'er left the palace with Su Simeng, who was crying until he was out of breath, and Lin Jinhua didn't stop him.
Ah Zhong stood on one side and said: "I found out that the assassins were a group of vicious gangsters, and they didn't intend to target Mr. Su. It's just that Mr. Su happened to pass by at that time, so he was targeted by them. Now They were all arrested, waiting for the government to behead them."
Hearing this, Lin Jinhua sighed softly: "You send someone to watch, I also watched Xiao Xun grow up, so don't let anything happen."
"Yes." Ah Zhong agreed, and went out quickly.
Lin Jinhua looked at the tea soup at the bottom of the bowl, thought for a while, and finally ordered Xiaolong on the side: "Go and take more antidote pills, if you can't solve it even with the imperial doctors, report it to me immediately Regardless of the loyalty of Dingbei Hou's family, even if she lightly targets Su Jingxun, she can't let him die in such a pity. It's just that Jiu'er will be confused when he passes by this time.
Jiu'er can't care about anything else now, thinking that Su Jingxun might die, she couldn't help but her eyes turned red, and when she finally got to Su Jingxun's room, she saw him lying on the bed, Ruyu's face was pale, left and right. There was a hideous scar on his face, and pots of blood poured out of the room.
Marquis Dingbei's hair turned gray a lot, and all the servants cried uncontrollably. Fortunately, he and the imperial doctor said that the poison was not difficult to cure, but the injury was a little serious.
"Princess, don't worry, Lord Hou. As long as you don't have any big emotional fluctuations in the next six months, you can recover with good cultivation, and the wound on your face can also be healed." The imperial physician said.
Liao also nodded on the side, and asked someone to get the antidote pills, dissolve them in water, and pour him another bowl, only to breathe a sigh of relief.
"Sister Huang, brother Xiao Xun is fine." He smiled.
"That's good." Jiu'er breathed a sigh of relief, and turned to comfort the terrified Su Simeng.
Su Simeng looked at her gratefully: "Thank you for calling the imperial physician and the little prince in time."
Jiu'er smiled slightly: "We are good friends."
After finishing speaking, the imperial doctors also came over, and they also specially warned: "This time Mr. Su's wound is near the heart vein, and it is good to be treated in time, but if there is a big mood swing within half a year, I may be in danger of life, please return it to me." Grandpa must be very careful."
"Yes." Lord Hou naturally agreed, and then sent the imperial doctor out in person.
After that, he also followed: "Sister Huang, since everyone has come out, I want to go to Ding'an."
Jiu'er smiled and patted his little head: "Go."
After waiting and leaving, Su Simeng glanced at Su Jingxun who seemed to be sleeping, and whispered to Jiu'er: "Let's go out first."
Jiu'er nodded, and just about to go with her, Su Jingxun called out softly: "Jiu'er, don't go..."
Jiu'er turned her head and saw that his face was a little red, obviously he had a fever, but his brows were tightly furrowed, and he looked very nervous.
She immediately walked over and said hurriedly: "Xiao Xun, I'm here, I won't leave."
"Don't go...don't go..." Su Jingxun murmured softly, Su Simeng quietly wiped away her tears and walked out quietly.
After she left, Jiu'er wanted to pour a cup of tea for Su Jingxun, but he held his hand.
She turned around in surprise, only to find that his eyes were slightly opened.
"Xiao Xun, you're awake!"
"Jiu'er, will you stay with me?" Su Jingxun looked at her expectantly. He knew that she was going to reject him when he was in the palace. It's very sad, but now, he still has one life left, and she is here, so he doesn't want her to go.
He knew that once she left, she really couldn't come back, her heart couldn't come back.
Jiu'er sat down next to the bed, touched his forehead, obviously hot, and said: "I'll call the imperial doctor to come back and have a look..."
"As long as you're here, I'll be fine." Su Jingxun said with difficulty, his body's fatigue kept dragging him, pulling him back.
"I'm here, I won't go, can I not go today?" Jiu'er comforted him, because when she was sick before, they always stayed by her and guarded her like this, so naturally she can't leave now.
Su Jingxun finally showed a smile: "Okay, don't go..." His voice gradually weakened, and finally fell into a deep sleep.
When he woke up again, it was already midnight, and there was only one candle burning faintly in the room, and it was very quiet.
He thought that Jiu'er had left after all, and his heart was empty, but when he turned his head, he found a sleeping little girl beside the bed.
She was probably too tired, her face was slightly pale, and she fell asleep lying on her bed.
It was the first time he saw her sleeping soundly so late, she was as quiet as a cat, cute and quiet, with long eyelashes drooping, casting a shadow under the flickering candlelight.
He tried to raise his hand, only to find that she was sleeping soundly and didn't notice it at all.
With trembling hands, he stroked her face lightly, feeling her warmth, and quickly withdrew it.
He looked at his hands, then at her, the corners of his mouth raised, and there was a little joy in his eyes.
"Jiu'er, you and I are like this, okay?" He murmured, enduring the pain in his body, and slowly sat up, trying to cover her with the quilt, but finally alarmed her.
Jiu'er rubbed his eyes, and seeing that he finally woke up, he said happily, "Xiao Xun, you finally woke up!" After speaking, he touched his forehead and his own to make sure that his fever had subsided. Only then did he let out a long sigh of relief and said, "Are you hungry? I'll ask someone to cook porridge for you."
"Have you ever eaten?" Su Jingxun asked, holding her hand.
"Don't worry, I've eaten it a long time ago. Xiaomeng prepared hydrangea scallops and pheasant that I like, and I'm very full." As he spoke, Jiu'er rubbed his stomach.
Seeing her like this, Su Jingxun smiled slightly, and said, "I'm not hungry, I just want to talk to you. Are you sleepy? Come to bed and sleep, I'll go to sleep on the warm couch..."
Hearing this, Jiu'er quickly held him down and said: "The doctor said, you are seriously injured and cannot move for the time being, you should rest well. Don't worry, I will go back to the palace to rest soon..."
"Do you have to go back to the palace at such a late hour? Jiu'er, can you..." Su Jingxun hesitated. Before, he would worry about gossip, worrying about being too abrupt, and worrying about a lot, but this time, he just wanted to Leave it all behind and leave her.
He looked at Jiu'er who was looking at him in doubt, and said with a smile: "Can you stay, just like before, stay in Dingbei Hou Mansion for a few days, and treat it as staying to play, okay?"
Jiu'er looked into his eyes, which seemed to be full of pain and sadness, she couldn't bear it, she smiled slightly: "Okay."
Su Jingxun finally let go of the stone in his heart, and said with a smile: "Jiu'er, thank you, if you leave like this, I must be very sad..."
"No, you can't be sad, and your emotions shouldn't fluctuate too much, otherwise your life will be lost." Jiu'er said hastily.
"Is the princess reluctant to let me die?" Su Jingxun asked her with a smile.
Of course Jiu'er was reluctant and nodded, "You want to live a long life, and we all want to live a long life."
Su Jingxun looked at her with shining eyes, she had tenderness and sympathy that she didn't realize, but there was no love between men and women.
He said softly: "Jiu'er, come here, I have something to tell you."
"What are you talking about?" Jiu'er leaned over as he said, but didn't expect his kiss to fall on her lips, it was soft and gentle.
Before Jiu'er left, he let go and said softly, "I love you, Jiu'er."
Jiu'er met his beautiful eyes, full of affection, his gentle voice seemed to still linger in her ears, making her heart throb.
She blushed slightly, stepped back quickly, and said shyly, "Xiao Xun, it's getting late, you should rest first." After speaking, she turned her head and ran out.
Seeing her like this, Su Jingxun knew that his efforts were not in 'er was still a blank sheet of paper, he didn't want to tarnish it, but he wanted her to stay by his side, he just wanted to be with her forever.
He knew that he was selfish, and he didn't even know if it was right to do so, but he would make Jiu'er happy, make her carefree all her life, and always be as happy as she is now.
After Jiu'er left the room, she went back to the yard where she used to live, because she always came to the Hou's mansion, Madam Hou specially prepared the largest yard for her.
When she returned to the yard, she stopped in her tracks.
She didn't understand, what was that just had only rained lightly at night at the end of August, and it was a bit cold. She walked back silently, feeling very complicated in her heart, which had completely surpassed the difficulty of handling all the things before.
After walking up the steps, I heard a familiar voice: "Little drunkard, isn't he drinking anymore?"
"Xiaojing?" She raised her head, and saw a man in black brocade clothes coming out from the corridor. The faint moonlight fell on him, which made people feel comfortable and at ease.
The white shadow flew by, and Anian was in her arms.
She smiled at the well-behaved Ah Nian in her arms, then smiled and looked up at Jiang Qijing: "Let's have a drink together."
"Okay." Jiang Qijing smiled, and directly took out two jars of wine: "Take it as farewell wine."
"Farewell to the wine?" Jiu'er, who was originally happy, was stunned for a moment, feeling a little anxious: "Are you leaving again?"
"I came to Daqi originally to marry a daughter-in-law, but now the daughter-in-law is going to belong to someone else, so I can only go back to Beiyan." He smiled and said to Jiu'er who didn't understand what he wanted.
For some reason, Jiu'er felt her nose sore and her eyes wet when she heard this sentence: "Is the person you want to marry married?"
Jiang Qijing shook his head with a smile, and looked at her deeply: "No, but she can't understand my thoughts, and she can't understand her own thoughts. I don't want her to be in trouble."
"But...but have you told her? You want to marry her?" Jiu'er didn't know why he was in such a hurry, but this time she knew he was leaving, so she knew he would not come back, and she didn't want him to leave.
"That's right, I haven't told her yet, but if she refuses, wouldn't I be ashamed to be friends with her in the future?" Jiang Qijing said.
Jiu'er couldn't help wiping away tears, and said: "Does it mean that as long as you marry a girl, you won't leave?"
Jiang Qijing's mouth curled into a smile: "But who will marry me, I'm just a little prince..."
"I am willing, I will marry you, don't go, don't marry someone else, okay..." Jiu'er finally couldn't help crying, why was she so sad, when she thought of him leaving, she couldn't help it Tears, she didn't want to be a crybaby, but her heart was so sore, and it was so painful, bursts of tears made her feel so uncomfortable that she didn't want to be a crybaby, she just wanted to keep him.
Seeing her crying like this, Jiang Qijing finally laughed, stepped forward and hugged her into his arms: "Okay, I promise you. As long as you marry me, I won't leave."
When Jiu'er heard the words, the bitterness in his heart gradually disappeared, and he just hugged him tightly, it turned out that being in his arms was actually so comfortable.
After sobbing and crying, she wiped all the tears on him, then raised her head and asked him wronged: "Then who is the girl you wanted to marry before?"
"You." Jiang Qijing saw that she hadn't understood yet, so he couldn't help laughing.
With a low laugh and gentle eyes, Jiu'er looked at him, stood on tiptoe, and kissed him directly, which caught Jiang Qijing by surprise.
The night wind is gentle, nostalgicly blowing through the warmth here.
Su Simeng was standing at the corner, listening to the words inside, she burst into tears, she was right all along, he is such a gentle person, but all these years, he was only for wine.
She looked up at the half-dewed moon in the sky, wiped away her tears, and left quietly.
It was her who was stupid, and her brother was also stupid. They all missed the best time. Jiu'er had already fallen in love with the prince, and the prince also loved her deeply.
But what about my brother, he can't be stimulated, otherwise his life will be lost.
Looking at the boundless night, she finally turned around and walked towards Su Jingxun's room.
(End of this chapter)
Jiu'er watched him approach slowly, watched him close his eyes, and looked at the face he liked so much, his face flushed instantly, and he slipped out from under his arm neatly.
Su Jingxun stopped at the same spot, and after a long while, she collected her mood, and asked her with a smile: "Do you hate me coming close?"
"Of course not." Jiu'er couldn't say anything, she remembered Jiang Qijing before, obviously he was caught off guard when he approached, but at that time her heart would beat faster, Xiao Jing said, it was the love between men and women.
"Why is that?" Su Jingxun was puzzled, and he never thought that the wine who liked to cling to him since he was a child would reject him.
Jiu'er frowned, and she couldn't figure out why, she just felt that she shouldn't be like this.
She looked up at Su Jingxun's sad look, couldn't bear it, but said with a smile: "Xiao Xun, didn't you say that men and women can't understand each other?"
"But……"
"I'm worried that you will move out of the palace again and never see me again." Jiu'er recalled the past, she always remembered this matter.
Seeing her like this, Su Jingxun finally sighed softly and said with a smile: "Forget it, it's getting late, I'll take you back to the palace, let's go for a walk, shall we talk?"
Seeing that he wasn't pushing her anymore, Jiu'er breathed a sigh of relief, nodded with a smile, and walked slowly in the palace with him.
She walks restlessly, likes to jump and jump, and from time to time kicks small rocks turned up on the road or picks a flower and holds it in her hand to play with, but when she is with Su Jingxun, she is extraordinarily well behaved, she knows Xiaoxun likes her Like a lady of every family, she knows the etiquette and integrity.
"Jiu'er?" Su Jingxun looked at the blushing little man walking obediently beside him, and called her with a smile.
"Huh?" Jiu'er looked up at him, and saw him looking deeply at her and smiling, "Just live with me like this for the rest of your life, okay?"
"OK……"
Before Jiu'er finished speaking, he added: "To live with me for the rest of my life is not like following Prince He, but treating me as a man, your husband."
Jiu'er suddenly understood what he had said: "My fair lady, a gentleman is good, that means the love between a man and a woman, right?"
"Well, there is still a person who is willing to have one heart, and the white head will not be separated." Su Jingxun stopped, looked at her deeply and said.
Jiu'er's heart moved slightly, he stopped and murmured this sentence, the next second he felt a tightness on his waist, and a soft touch came from his lips, carrying the fragrance of Su Jingxun's body, as well as his carefulness and tenderness. trembling.
As night fell, in front of the palace where Jiu'er lived alone, there were still two dimly lit lanterns. Under the shadow of the lights stood a lazily leaning man leaning against the wall. The man raised his hand and looked at the bright moon in the sky without saying anything. He didn't think about anything until the corner of the palace wall, the little figure came back alone.
He stood up slowly and looked at her with a slight smile: "Little girl, do you want to go out of the palace to play?"
"Xiao Jing?" Jiu'er stopped in her tracks, she looked at the man in the light and shadow, and just stood there quietly smiling at herself, which made her feel happy in her heart, and she had an urge to throw herself into his arms.
"Why, half-hearted and unwilling to leave the palace with me? Forget it, the rouge goose breast in the south of the city, the phoenix fetus in the west of the city, and the lotus root flour osmanthus cake in the north of the city. I'll just eat it by myself." Jiang Qijing finished with a smile, Then he moved forward.
Jiu'er stomped his feet: "How can you eat it by yourself!"
Jiang Qijing bent his eyes: "Then you want to go with me?"
"Naturally, I'll bring you two jars of wine later!" After Jiu'er finished speaking, he paused and said softly: "My cousin's family heard that there are two jars of fine wine hidden, do you want to taste it?"
Of course Jiang Qijing agreed, and soon, the two of them left the palace hand in hand, they jumped out easily, and no one stopped them.
Su Simeng is still waiting for Su Jingxun to come out at the gate of the palace. After waiting for a long time, he finally sees him come out, but the coldness around him seems to be more intense.
She went up to meet him two steps ahead, and asked him softly: "Brother, the princess..."
"Go back and tell father that I want to marry the princess." Su Jingxun didn't tell Su Simeng what happened before, because he thought that even if he said it, she wouldn't believe it. After all, she looks innocent and likes to cling to her wine, why? Maybe you already know the love between men and women, and maybe you have already agreed?
He wasn't sure if Jiu'er fell in love with someone else, but for a silly girl like Jiu'er, other men might be able to trick her back with sweet words. Instead of seeing her being cheated, it's better to marry her back first. As for love She will understand what happened in the future, and she will not regret it.
Until Su Jingxun got into the carriage, he was immersed in the fact that he mustered up the courage to kiss Jiu'er before, but was avoided by her twice.
He listened to the sound of the wheels of the carriage driving on the road, and finally closed his eyes, not daring to think about it.
And at this moment, Jiu'er had already arrived at Xu Chengqing's house with Jiang Qijing.
Xu Chengqing was still doing the couple's business with Bao Zhu tonight, and had no idea that his wine cellar had entered a 'guest'.
"Keep your voice down, my uncle treasures these wines very much, we can only drink a little." Jiu'er walked slowly into the wine cabinet carefully.
"Okay." Jiang Qijing responded with a smile, followed her carefully into the wine cellar, smelled the strong aroma of wine, looked at the wine and said: "The smell of wine is too strong here, be careful, don't get drunk. "
"I know, I know, I can drink very well." Jiu'er turned around and hid behind the drunkard in another place, listening to the movement around him vigilantly with big eyes. After making sure that no one had noticed, he led Jiang Qijing In front of a big wooden box, this big wooden box is made of high-quality sandalwood, which shows that we pay attention to it.
When she opened the box, she saw that two large altars of wine had been carefully placed inside, wrapped in soft cloth and hay.
"That's it!" Jiu'er took a deep breath, the aroma of the wine was mellow, she waved her hand behind her, and immediately opened one of the jars, and in an instant, the rich aroma came out, and Jiu'er's little heart was so excited that Jumped out: "Good wine!"
Jiang Qijing looked at this little greedy cat. The little girl also likes some tea and soup. She only likes wine. It seems that their children will not be called such names in the future. Maybe it would be good to call them Chacha.
He saw her flushed face, raised her eyebrows slightly: "Jiu'er, your drinking capacity..."
"Don't worry, you won't get drunk after a thousand cups." Jiu'er said with a smile.
"Really? There are all kinds of wine mixed here." Jiang Qijing kindly reminded.
Jiu'er pouted and snorted, holding the wine jar, he went to the corner to find two bowls, poured a bowl for himself, and poured another bowl for Jiang Qijing, then sealed the wine jar and put it back up.
"If you don't want to drink, I'll drink it myself." After Jiu'er finished speaking, the bowl of wine guzzled down.
Jiang Qijing's eyebrows twitched slightly, why did he feel that something happened to Jiu'er today.
Just as she was thinking, she had gulped down the bowl of wine before she had time to open her mouth.
"Good wine!" She giggled, as if she had started to whet her appetite, she turned her head and wrapped a jug of decades-old wine on the cabinet, uncorked the bottle and started drinking while facing the wine jug.
I didn't finish one jar, so I went to taste another jar, so happy.
She drank happily: "It's been a long time since I've had such a good time, Xiaojing, come quickly, it's all good wine!"
Her voice was not low, and the guards outside finally heard the movement, and immediately shouted inside: "Who is inside!"
Jiang Qijing thought that Jiu'er would calm down with this aggressive scolding, but she actually felt aggrieved, and looked at him pitifully with tears in her eyes: "Xiaojing, he is fierce to me..."
Jiang Qijing didn't expect her to be like this, he wanted to laugh but held back, and said, "If you don't leave, your cousin is coming."
"Uncle...uncle!" Jiu'er immediately regained consciousness, pulled Jiang Qijing to run, and threw the wine jar in his hand with a crackling sound, which immediately alarmed the guards outside.
Jiang Qijing looked at the little girl who was dizzy from drinking, sighed faintly, hugged her and hurried towards the exit, those guards were no match for him.
He quickly came out with Jiu'er in his arms, and went straight over the roof, but within a moment, he shook off the people who were chasing him.
"It's okay." He smiled lightly, and saw the little girl with her arms around his neck looking at him with sparkling eyes. Does she look drunk?
"Wine..."
"Guanguan Jujiu, in Hezhizhou, gentle and graceful man, beautiful woman." She giggled, and before Jiang Qijing could react, she began to cry again.
Looking at this strange drunken state, Jiang Qijing couldn't laugh or cry: "What's the matter? Are you uncomfortable?"
"I want to go to the toilet..." Jiu'er seemed to have something very sad, crying uncontrollably.
Hearing this, Jiang Qijing's ears blushed slightly, and he quickly took her back to his home. The most important thing was that she was drunk, and he didn't allow himself to be too far away from her.
After the maids served her convenience, she was staggered out, her little face was flushed, it could be seen that she was really drunk from drinking too much today, even Jiang Qijing couldn't tell the difference between the bright eyes she had before Looking at his own appearance, whether it is true or not.
"Get hot water first, and wait for the lady to take a bath." He didn't reveal the identity of Jiu'er, and the maids who served were all his confidantes, so he was relieved.
"Yes." The maids responded, but Jiu'er staggered forward a few steps, hugged his neck and hung on his body, said with a smile, "Xiaojing."
"Ok?"
"I want to ask you a question..." She said seriously with a puzzled face.
"Say it."
Jiu'er giggled and said, "Why do you have a tail and I don't?"
Jiang Qijing: "..."
Soon the hot water came, and the maids immediately took Jiu'er in to take a bath, but Jiu'er was really drunk today, and when he was taken away, he kept crying: "Xiao Jing, I want Xiao Jing to woo woo woo Oh, Xiaojing, you bullied me..."
Jiang Qijing has a big head, is this little girl stimulated today?Moreover, he is not too young now, he has already known about men and women, besides, he had already reacted when she stuck to him just now.
He tried his best to restrain the unstable and evil energy in his body, closed his eyes and refused to listen, and wanted to wait for her to wake up before speaking, but suddenly he heard a scream from inside, followed by the sound of someone falling to the ground.
He was startled, and immediately ran in. Just after entering, he saw Jiu'er sitting obediently in the bathtub, and the person who fell on the ground was not a person, but a maid on the side. She looked at the sudden intruder with an innocent face. Jiang Qijing who came in asked strangely, "Xiaojing, why are you here?"
"This is……"
"It was the servant girl who slipped and fell, please forgive me." The maid hurriedly stood up and saluted, but the fall was obviously hard, and her face turned pale.
Hearing this, Jiang Qijing only sent her down, then looked at Jiu'er who was obediently soaking in the water waiting for someone to serve him, and didn't want to disturb the others, so he sent another person away in the room, then said: "Jiu'er Be good, after bathing, I will take you to the city to play."
Jiu'er tilted her head slightly to look at him: "Xiaojing."
"Ok?"
"Men and women are different," she reminded.
Jiang Qijing: "..." Didn't you ask me to serve you after you clamored?
Seeing her stupid look, he was afraid that she would drown herself in the water in a while, so he said: "There are differences between men and women, but we are different." After finishing speaking, he took his large bathrobe He asked, "Can I get up by myself?"
"Yes." Jiu'er nodded obediently, but looked at him puzzled: "But why are we different?"
"When you marry me, we will be honest with each other." Jiang Qijing's peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly.
Jiu'er doesn't know if there is a difference between his relative sincerity and her own, but now she is very excited, and she wants to go out to play, hug him, and kiss him...
She smiled shyly. Seeing her like this, Jiang Qijing didn't dare to look at her again. He only opened his bathrobe to cover his eyes, and said, "Get up, I'll take you out."
"it is good."
The wine was served, followed by the sound of water rushing, before Jiang Qijing could react, he was already wrapped in a bathrobe, his white arms stretched out to hug him, and his small face rubbed against his neck , smiled and said: "Xiaojing, I think, I want to marry you."
Jiang Qijing laughed: "Do you know what it means to marry me?"
"I know, I will love you forever, have children with you, and support you until we grow old." She raised her eyes to look at him, with only Qingming in her eyes: "Xiaojing, I remember everything ten years ago, you said Yes, marry me."
Jiang Qijing looked at her as if he had woken up, his face flushed slightly, but because of her strength, he fell to the ground, and she also pressed on him.
He could feel his heart beating faster, and he called her softly: "Jiu'er..."
No response.
He moved and continued to call her, but there was still no response.
He got up slightly and looked, only to find that she was already fast asleep.
He took a long breath, that's all, she probably didn't know what she was talking about just now.
But if it is true, does it mean that this little girl already has herself in her heart?
The corners of his mouth raised slightly, but he finally stopped talking.
The next day, when the sky was bright, Jiu'er woke up from the dream, but with a splitting headache.
"Princess, you're awake!" Xiaoli hurried over, put down the hangover medicine in her hand, and hurriedly helped her up.
Jiu'er frowned, thinking about what happened yesterday, her face suddenly turned red, she hurriedly lowered her head to look at her clothes, fortunately, she had already changed into her clothes...
Wait, who changed the clothes for her!
She hurriedly grabbed Xiaoli and said, "When did I come back yesterday?"
"This... I don't know, I don't know. I slept very deeply yesterday. When I woke up in the morning, you were lying on the bed." After Xiaoli finished speaking, she said in a low voice: "Princess, what did you do yesterday? Who went drinking?"
Jiu'er tried hard to think about what happened last night, it seemed that she had said something... But what did she say, why can't she remember?
She had a headache, saw the anti-alcoholic medicine on one side, drank a bowl first, and then sat up, but after thinking about it, she felt that nothing would happen, after all, she had seen Xiao Jing Guangguang before, Nothing happened.
Thinking of this, she felt a little more relaxed, and when she was about to stand up, she found a note under the pillow.
She took it out and took a look, and saw that it said 'nothing happened last night'.
Nothing, just nothing?
The stone in Jiu'er's heart also fell, it's okay, it's okay.
She smiled and got up to wash and dress up.
After dressing up, I saw Xiaoling walking quickly, saw that she saluted first, and then said with a smile: "Princess, my mother told you to go over."
"What's the matter?" Jiu'er remembered that he drank several jugs of wine from his cousin's house last night. Hearing this, he thought it was his mother who found out about it.
Xiao Ling hurriedly smiled and said: "Dingbeihou and Mrs. Dingbeihou have come to the palace together. It sounds like they want to marry you, the princess. The empress wants to hear what you mean. If you agree, she will agree. .”
When Jiu'er heard this, he immediately stood up.
Xiaoling thought she was happy, and hurriedly said: "Princess has liked to play with Mr. Su since she was a child, and now she is finally married, so you will definitely agree." She likes Mr. Su, she has been full of talents since she was a child, Although it looks cold, it is hot in the heart.
Jiu'er was a little taken aback when she heard the words, she couldn't distinguish those feelings likes Xiao Xun, but she also likes Xiaomeng, Ding'an, and so on...
Speaking of which, is there a difference?It seems that there is, and it seems that there is no.
She didn't get as happy as Xiaoling, she just thought about it in silence until she arrived at Lin Jinhua's palace.
At that time, Lin Jinzheng was sitting in the top seat, smiling and talking to Dingbeihou and Mrs. Hou at the bottom, Su Simeng and Su Jingxun were also there, Su Jingxun was still so good-looking, with a little cold temperament on his body, today he changed Dressed in black clothes, she looks more mature and stable, and also more handsome.
When Jiu'er watched him smile at her, she remembered his sudden approach last night, her face was slightly hot, and she stepped forward to salute.
Seeing her coming, Lin Jinhua only smiled and said, "Jiu'er, the queen mother called you here, do you know why?"
"I know." Jiu'er responded, but for some reason, after she understood the marriage, she knew that she would spend the rest of her life with Xiao Xun, whom she liked, but she didn't feel particularly excited, and even...worse than going there last night Steal wine and drink happily.
"Then you..." Lin Jinhua was about to ask, but Su Jingxun said, "Princess Weichen waited for so many years, and finally waited for you to grow up. Now you are so abrupt. Please don't blame Weichen for your affection."
Jiu'er turned to look at him, looking at the anticipation and hope in his eyes, the words she was about to say froze.
When Su Jingxun saw her looking at him, his eyes were confused, and he had already guessed what she was going to say just he couldn't... and couldn't bear to just give up like this. He believed that as long as she stayed by his side, he would gradually let her understand his intentions. He also believed that she must not be completely ruthless to him.
He smiled slightly, took out a jade pendant, and said: "Ten years ago, I gave the princess a jade pendant exactly like this one, and I also promised the princess that I would never leave the princess for the rest of my life."
Looking at the jade pendant, Jiu'er thought of the other piece that she had carefully put away, and a strange feeling came up in her heart, which made her confused.
Moreover, looking at Xiao Xun like this, she seemed to have no reason to refuse.
Lin Jinhua just watched silently. Over the years, she has protected her daughter so well that she has made all choices secretly for her, but she can no longer interfere with life-long events. After all, Su Jingxun is also a very good man, steady and responsible, Moreover, he had been childhood sweethearts with Jiu'er since he was a child, and he tolerated all her mischievousness, and loved her very much.
Lin Jinhua smiled lightly: "It seems that you can't make a decision right now, Jiuer, why don't you give Beihou a reply in a few days?"
Naturally, Marquis Dingbei had no choice but to agree, so he hurriedly got up and agreed.
Su Jingxun also stood up, looked at Jiu'er tenderly and said, "Didn't you like the swing in Dingbeihou's Mansion? I have ordered someone to repair it, and you can come over anytime."
"Yeah." Jiu'er nodded, remembering the happy time we played together, and smiled slightly: "Thank you, Xiao Xun."
The corners of Su Jingxun's mouth raised slightly, Lin Jinhua didn't say anything more, and just let them all back down.
When leaving, Su Jingxun was a little hesitant, looking at the still calm wine, he finally left, but there was a heavy stone on his heart.
After he left, Lin Jinhua smiled at Jiu'er who seemed stunned: "Jiu'er doesn't want to marry?"
"I just don't understand." Jiu'er looked at Lin Jinhua, feeling extremely warm, walked up to her with a smile and sat down, leaned against her, and then asked her with a smile: "Mother, what is the relationship between a man and a woman? "
"Jiu'er doesn't understand?"
"I don't understand." Jiu'er shook his head.
Lin Jinhua then asked her: "Do you like Xiao Xun as much as you like Xiao Jing?"
At this question, Jiu'er blinked and looked up at her: "It seems different." She didn't hesitate much, because she had thought about this question yesterday, and she treated Xiao Xun more like a relative, a brother Xiaojing is different, he is a good partner, every time she sees him, her heart beats faster.
Lin Jinhua embraced her with a slight smile, and said: "The empress mother and the emperor father are together because of love, so you see, the empress mother loves the emperor father, and hopes to possess him, so that he is only as good as a woman like me, but compared to him Only good for me, I am willing to sacrifice these, as long as he is good."
Jiu'er seemed to understand but half understood: "If you like it, you are willing to sacrifice?"
"That's not the case. Sacrifice is just a narrow side. The poem says that people will make promises between life and death, and the poem says that they wish to be lovebirds in the sky and twigs in the earth. These are all one-sided understandings. When you like someone, you want to be good for yourself. I also hope he is well, the taste of it can only be known by those who have tasted it, and everyone is different." Lin Jinzheng looked at the slim daughter who has now grown up, and felt dazed, she did not expect her to arrive so soon. the age of marriage.
Jiu'er looked at her and asked, "Queen, Jiu'er understands." Jiu'er laughed.
Lin Jinhua squeezed her small face, looked at the light that was beating in her heart, and bent her eyes.
The whole afternoon, Jiu'er was thinking about how to tell Xiao Xun in the palace, but she couldn't figure it out. She would always think of Jiang Qijing, the night when he lay at the stern of the boat watching the river lanterns and fireworks, the night when he beat up the old bastard, The night when we lay together on the roof and counted the stars, and the night when he kissed himself for the first time...
She held her head halfway, thinking with a smile on her lips.
When Xiaoli led Su Simeng in, she was still smiling.
"Princess, Miss Su is here." Xiaoli reminded.
Only then did Jiu'er raise her head and said joyfully, "Xiao Meng, why are you here suddenly!" After she finished speaking, she noticed that her eyes were red.
Jiu'er was slightly stunned, not knowing what's wrong with her, she quickly got up and said, "Xiao Meng, what's wrong with you."
Su Simeng took her hand, wanted to say, but felt that she shouldn't, but her hand kept shaking because of fear.
Jiu'er hurriedly pulled her and said anxiously: "Don't worry, tell me when something happens, I will definitely help you!"
Su Simeng then said: "Brother was assassinated after he went out this afternoon, and now he is in the mansion, his life and death are uncertain, and he was poisoned, and his face was ruined. He won't let me tell you, but I'm worried... I'm worried If I don't tell you, I won't be able to see you for the last time..." After Su Simeng finished speaking, she sat down on the ground and began to cry bitterly. She couldn't figure out why this happened. Not knowing kung fu, unexpectedly recruiting such a cruel assassination.
Jiu'er's face also turned pale all of a sudden, but she calmed down anyway, and immediately said to Xiaoli: "Go pass on the imperial physician... no, go find it, bring the detoxification pill, and let's go to the Dingbei Hou Mansion immediately!"
"Yes!" Xiaoli didn't expect it to be like this, so she went to call someone.
Soon Jiu'er left the palace with Su Simeng, who was crying until he was out of breath, and Lin Jinhua didn't stop him.
Ah Zhong stood on one side and said: "I found out that the assassins were a group of vicious gangsters, and they didn't intend to target Mr. Su. It's just that Mr. Su happened to pass by at that time, so he was targeted by them. Now They were all arrested, waiting for the government to behead them."
Hearing this, Lin Jinhua sighed softly: "You send someone to watch, I also watched Xiao Xun grow up, so don't let anything happen."
"Yes." Ah Zhong agreed, and went out quickly.
Lin Jinhua looked at the tea soup at the bottom of the bowl, thought for a while, and finally ordered Xiaolong on the side: "Go and take more antidote pills, if you can't solve it even with the imperial doctors, report it to me immediately Regardless of the loyalty of Dingbei Hou's family, even if she lightly targets Su Jingxun, she can't let him die in such a pity. It's just that Jiu'er will be confused when he passes by this time.
Jiu'er can't care about anything else now, thinking that Su Jingxun might die, she couldn't help but her eyes turned red, and when she finally got to Su Jingxun's room, she saw him lying on the bed, Ruyu's face was pale, left and right. There was a hideous scar on his face, and pots of blood poured out of the room.
Marquis Dingbei's hair turned gray a lot, and all the servants cried uncontrollably. Fortunately, he and the imperial doctor said that the poison was not difficult to cure, but the injury was a little serious.
"Princess, don't worry, Lord Hou. As long as you don't have any big emotional fluctuations in the next six months, you can recover with good cultivation, and the wound on your face can also be healed." The imperial physician said.
Liao also nodded on the side, and asked someone to get the antidote pills, dissolve them in water, and pour him another bowl, only to breathe a sigh of relief.
"Sister Huang, brother Xiao Xun is fine." He smiled.
"That's good." Jiu'er breathed a sigh of relief, and turned to comfort the terrified Su Simeng.
Su Simeng looked at her gratefully: "Thank you for calling the imperial physician and the little prince in time."
Jiu'er smiled slightly: "We are good friends."
After finishing speaking, the imperial doctors also came over, and they also specially warned: "This time Mr. Su's wound is near the heart vein, and it is good to be treated in time, but if there is a big mood swing within half a year, I may be in danger of life, please return it to me." Grandpa must be very careful."
"Yes." Lord Hou naturally agreed, and then sent the imperial doctor out in person.
After that, he also followed: "Sister Huang, since everyone has come out, I want to go to Ding'an."
Jiu'er smiled and patted his little head: "Go."
After waiting and leaving, Su Simeng glanced at Su Jingxun who seemed to be sleeping, and whispered to Jiu'er: "Let's go out first."
Jiu'er nodded, and just about to go with her, Su Jingxun called out softly: "Jiu'er, don't go..."
Jiu'er turned her head and saw that his face was a little red, obviously he had a fever, but his brows were tightly furrowed, and he looked very nervous.
She immediately walked over and said hurriedly: "Xiao Xun, I'm here, I won't leave."
"Don't go...don't go..." Su Jingxun murmured softly, Su Simeng quietly wiped away her tears and walked out quietly.
After she left, Jiu'er wanted to pour a cup of tea for Su Jingxun, but he held his hand.
She turned around in surprise, only to find that his eyes were slightly opened.
"Xiao Xun, you're awake!"
"Jiu'er, will you stay with me?" Su Jingxun looked at her expectantly. He knew that she was going to reject him when he was in the palace. It's very sad, but now, he still has one life left, and she is here, so he doesn't want her to go.
He knew that once she left, she really couldn't come back, her heart couldn't come back.
Jiu'er sat down next to the bed, touched his forehead, obviously hot, and said: "I'll call the imperial doctor to come back and have a look..."
"As long as you're here, I'll be fine." Su Jingxun said with difficulty, his body's fatigue kept dragging him, pulling him back.
"I'm here, I won't go, can I not go today?" Jiu'er comforted him, because when she was sick before, they always stayed by her and guarded her like this, so naturally she can't leave now.
Su Jingxun finally showed a smile: "Okay, don't go..." His voice gradually weakened, and finally fell into a deep sleep.
When he woke up again, it was already midnight, and there was only one candle burning faintly in the room, and it was very quiet.
He thought that Jiu'er had left after all, and his heart was empty, but when he turned his head, he found a sleeping little girl beside the bed.
She was probably too tired, her face was slightly pale, and she fell asleep lying on her bed.
It was the first time he saw her sleeping soundly so late, she was as quiet as a cat, cute and quiet, with long eyelashes drooping, casting a shadow under the flickering candlelight.
He tried to raise his hand, only to find that she was sleeping soundly and didn't notice it at all.
With trembling hands, he stroked her face lightly, feeling her warmth, and quickly withdrew it.
He looked at his hands, then at her, the corners of his mouth raised, and there was a little joy in his eyes.
"Jiu'er, you and I are like this, okay?" He murmured, enduring the pain in his body, and slowly sat up, trying to cover her with the quilt, but finally alarmed her.
Jiu'er rubbed his eyes, and seeing that he finally woke up, he said happily, "Xiao Xun, you finally woke up!" After speaking, he touched his forehead and his own to make sure that his fever had subsided. Only then did he let out a long sigh of relief and said, "Are you hungry? I'll ask someone to cook porridge for you."
"Have you ever eaten?" Su Jingxun asked, holding her hand.
"Don't worry, I've eaten it a long time ago. Xiaomeng prepared hydrangea scallops and pheasant that I like, and I'm very full." As he spoke, Jiu'er rubbed his stomach.
Seeing her like this, Su Jingxun smiled slightly, and said, "I'm not hungry, I just want to talk to you. Are you sleepy? Come to bed and sleep, I'll go to sleep on the warm couch..."
Hearing this, Jiu'er quickly held him down and said: "The doctor said, you are seriously injured and cannot move for the time being, you should rest well. Don't worry, I will go back to the palace to rest soon..."
"Do you have to go back to the palace at such a late hour? Jiu'er, can you..." Su Jingxun hesitated. Before, he would worry about gossip, worrying about being too abrupt, and worrying about a lot, but this time, he just wanted to Leave it all behind and leave her.
He looked at Jiu'er who was looking at him in doubt, and said with a smile: "Can you stay, just like before, stay in Dingbei Hou Mansion for a few days, and treat it as staying to play, okay?"
Jiu'er looked into his eyes, which seemed to be full of pain and sadness, she couldn't bear it, she smiled slightly: "Okay."
Su Jingxun finally let go of the stone in his heart, and said with a smile: "Jiu'er, thank you, if you leave like this, I must be very sad..."
"No, you can't be sad, and your emotions shouldn't fluctuate too much, otherwise your life will be lost." Jiu'er said hastily.
"Is the princess reluctant to let me die?" Su Jingxun asked her with a smile.
Of course Jiu'er was reluctant and nodded, "You want to live a long life, and we all want to live a long life."
Su Jingxun looked at her with shining eyes, she had tenderness and sympathy that she didn't realize, but there was no love between men and women.
He said softly: "Jiu'er, come here, I have something to tell you."
"What are you talking about?" Jiu'er leaned over as he said, but didn't expect his kiss to fall on her lips, it was soft and gentle.
Before Jiu'er left, he let go and said softly, "I love you, Jiu'er."
Jiu'er met his beautiful eyes, full of affection, his gentle voice seemed to still linger in her ears, making her heart throb.
She blushed slightly, stepped back quickly, and said shyly, "Xiao Xun, it's getting late, you should rest first." After speaking, she turned her head and ran out.
Seeing her like this, Su Jingxun knew that his efforts were not in 'er was still a blank sheet of paper, he didn't want to tarnish it, but he wanted her to stay by his side, he just wanted to be with her forever.
He knew that he was selfish, and he didn't even know if it was right to do so, but he would make Jiu'er happy, make her carefree all her life, and always be as happy as she is now.
After Jiu'er left the room, she went back to the yard where she used to live, because she always came to the Hou's mansion, Madam Hou specially prepared the largest yard for her.
When she returned to the yard, she stopped in her tracks.
She didn't understand, what was that just had only rained lightly at night at the end of August, and it was a bit cold. She walked back silently, feeling very complicated in her heart, which had completely surpassed the difficulty of handling all the things before.
After walking up the steps, I heard a familiar voice: "Little drunkard, isn't he drinking anymore?"
"Xiaojing?" She raised her head, and saw a man in black brocade clothes coming out from the corridor. The faint moonlight fell on him, which made people feel comfortable and at ease.
The white shadow flew by, and Anian was in her arms.
She smiled at the well-behaved Ah Nian in her arms, then smiled and looked up at Jiang Qijing: "Let's have a drink together."
"Okay." Jiang Qijing smiled, and directly took out two jars of wine: "Take it as farewell wine."
"Farewell to the wine?" Jiu'er, who was originally happy, was stunned for a moment, feeling a little anxious: "Are you leaving again?"
"I came to Daqi originally to marry a daughter-in-law, but now the daughter-in-law is going to belong to someone else, so I can only go back to Beiyan." He smiled and said to Jiu'er who didn't understand what he wanted.
For some reason, Jiu'er felt her nose sore and her eyes wet when she heard this sentence: "Is the person you want to marry married?"
Jiang Qijing shook his head with a smile, and looked at her deeply: "No, but she can't understand my thoughts, and she can't understand her own thoughts. I don't want her to be in trouble."
"But...but have you told her? You want to marry her?" Jiu'er didn't know why he was in such a hurry, but this time she knew he was leaving, so she knew he would not come back, and she didn't want him to leave.
"That's right, I haven't told her yet, but if she refuses, wouldn't I be ashamed to be friends with her in the future?" Jiang Qijing said.
Jiu'er couldn't help wiping away tears, and said: "Does it mean that as long as you marry a girl, you won't leave?"
Jiang Qijing's mouth curled into a smile: "But who will marry me, I'm just a little prince..."
"I am willing, I will marry you, don't go, don't marry someone else, okay..." Jiu'er finally couldn't help crying, why was she so sad, when she thought of him leaving, she couldn't help it Tears, she didn't want to be a crybaby, but her heart was so sore, and it was so painful, bursts of tears made her feel so uncomfortable that she didn't want to be a crybaby, she just wanted to keep him.
Seeing her crying like this, Jiang Qijing finally laughed, stepped forward and hugged her into his arms: "Okay, I promise you. As long as you marry me, I won't leave."
When Jiu'er heard the words, the bitterness in his heart gradually disappeared, and he just hugged him tightly, it turned out that being in his arms was actually so comfortable.
After sobbing and crying, she wiped all the tears on him, then raised her head and asked him wronged: "Then who is the girl you wanted to marry before?"
"You." Jiang Qijing saw that she hadn't understood yet, so he couldn't help laughing.
With a low laugh and gentle eyes, Jiu'er looked at him, stood on tiptoe, and kissed him directly, which caught Jiang Qijing by surprise.
The night wind is gentle, nostalgicly blowing through the warmth here.
Su Simeng was standing at the corner, listening to the words inside, she burst into tears, she was right all along, he is such a gentle person, but all these years, he was only for wine.
She looked up at the half-dewed moon in the sky, wiped away her tears, and left quietly.
It was her who was stupid, and her brother was also stupid. They all missed the best time. Jiu'er had already fallen in love with the prince, and the prince also loved her deeply.
But what about my brother, he can't be stimulated, otherwise his life will be lost.
Looking at the boundless night, she finally turned around and walked towards Su Jingxun's room.
