Hairpin Phoenix

   Chapter 424 Gathering (2)

  The moon is like water, and it sprinkles a gleam of white on the window lattice.

  Two candlesticks were burning in the bedroom, and a familiar fragrance wafted from the incense burner. The large bed, shrouded in veil, lay on the bed, like being in a small world.

   In this world, there is no one else, only the husband and wife.

Li Jingtou leaned on the soft and comfortable pillow, hugged Lu Mingyu, and sighed deeply: "I lived in the military camp for so long, I smelled the smell of the military men all day, and slept on a hard and narrow couch. Forget what it's like to sleep on the bed with your wife in your arms."

  Lu Mingyu laughed, turned sideways, raised his head, and looked at Li Jing with interest: "What's it like?"

   Li Jing laughed softly.

  Lu Mingyu reluctantly lowered her head and kissed him: "Although you are a little thinner and ugly, but you can still watch it if you make it."

  Li Jing showed a disgusted and hurt face: "I knew it, you already disliked me, and it's not as good as before."

  Lu Mingyu smiled and gave him a white look: "Hurry up and take off your clothes, let me take a look."

   Li Jing was startled and looked at him with a wary look: "What are you going to do? Are you doing something wrong with me?"

  Lu Mingyu chuckled: "Okay, don't make trouble. Quickly undress, I'll see how the injury on your chest is."

   Queen Qiao asked about the injury today, and Li Jing downplayed it. As soon as Lu Mingyu heard it, he knew that not only did Li Jing have a wound on his chest, but he must also have many scars all over his body.

  Li Jing still wanted to shirk, but Lu Mingyu reached out and quickly unbuttoned his shirt.

   The placket slipped, revealing his chest. A brown scar first appeared under the eyes.

  Lu Mingyu's expression was slightly condensed, his fingertips gently stroked his chest, and asked gently, "Is this the scar left by the arrow wound?"

   Li Jing hummed.

  Lu Mingyu didn't speak, just looked at him quietly.

  Thousands of words, all in the silent gaze.

"On that day, I heard that you led the troops to pursue the Yan soldiers, and then were injured by the Yan soldiers. I felt anxious and uncomfortable." Lu Mingyu broke the silence in a low voice, her voice full of obscurity: "Li Jing, you don't have to do so much for me. ."

   Li Jing stared at Lu Mingyu: "In your previous life, your father-in-law died at the hands of Yan Tuo, and you have been sad for several years. With me in this life, you will naturally protect your father-in-law."

   Lu Mingyu's eyes flashed with water, and his voice was choked: "I'm afraid that something will happen to my father. Don't I feel pain when you get hurt?"

   Li Jing slammed her into his arms and kissed her hard.

  The lingering kiss is mixed with the salty and wet taste of tears. Two hearts beating fiercely, the rhythm is strangely blended together.

  Empty days, this kind of intimacy and lingering quickly made each other's bodies warm up. Li Jing gasped, reaching out and groping into Lu Mingyu's shirt.

  Lu Mingyu quickly grabbed his hand, his cheeks flushed, and his voice was a little hurried: "The wound on my arm is not healed, and your chest is also injured, so it is not advisable to use force."

  Li Jing laughed lowly and hugged Lu Mingyu contentedly into his arms.

  Lu Mingyu reached out and gently stroked the scar on Li Jing's body. Large and small, there are seven or eight places in total, and they are not heavy. However, most of them have scars. The brilliance and smoothness of the past will never be restored.

   Li Jing said in a low voice: "This wound on the shoulder was injured by a stray arrow, leaving scratches."

   "The injury on the lower abdomen was cut by a long spear. Fortunately, the injury is not serious, and it will be fine after a few days."

   "The inner thighs are due to the fact that at the beginning of the march, they were repeatedly worn out, and the scars fell off, and then the scars were formed again, and now it is like this."

   The voice suddenly became tense. Because Lu Mingyu's fingers had slipped down to the inner thighs, as if he was tickling him with a feather, but he clearly hit the spot, but the more he scratched it, the more it tickled.

  Lu Mingyu glanced at him with a smile, and touched a wound on his leg again.

   "This is a stab wound. The injury was a little severe at the time, and it took more than half a month to heal." Li Jing said in a low voice, reaching out and pulling her hand up.

  Lu Mingyu: "..."

   Another long time passed.

   "How did you kill Yan Tuo?" Li Jing turned sideways and touched the scar on Lu Mingyu's arm.

Lu Mingyu said in a low voice, "That night was actually very dangerous. It took me two days and two nights to lead the dark guards around to the rear of the Yanbing barracks. I first used rockets to burn food and grass, causing chaos in the Yanbing barracks. Then, I led the troops. Attacking the army tent. Yan Tuo is indeed very brave. I took a shot and killed him with a single sword."

   "When Yan Tuo died, the Yan Bing army was in chaos, and there was a scuffle."

   Hearing the word "Ying Xiao", Li Jing's expression changed suddenly, and his voice became unstable: "Once the camp screams in the army, the soldiers will be mad, regardless of the enemy or me."

   Thinking that Lu Mingyu was in the Yan Barracks, where tens of thousands of battalions were roaring in chaos, was simply frightening and frightening.

   "Before I set off, I sent a letter to General Liang." Lu Mingyu said in a low voice, "Using the firelight as a sign, General Liang will send people out of the city gate, and the inside and outside should be coordinated."

   "After I was injured, I have been in Yan Tuo's tent. The dark guards risked their lives to protect me. I held on until the sky was getting brighter and reinforcements came."

   Lu Mingyu's eyes flashed with water, and his voice became more and more low and obscure: "In this battle, most of Lu's secret guards died, and less than 500 people were alive. Moreover, almost everyone was injured."

   This battle, how tragic!

  Li Jing took her into his arms and whispered: "It may be too selfish to say that. I have to thank Lu's secret guard for protecting you with all my might."

   "Fortunately, there are still hundreds of people. We will recruit and train slowly in the future, turn Lu's dark guards into light, and set up the Crown Princess's personal guards."

  In the Great Wei Dynasty, princes could have personal guards, and generals could have personal soldiers. I've never heard that a crown princess can also have personal guards.

  Lu Mingyu was startled and looked up at Li Jing.

   Li Jing's face was solemn, and he didn't mean to joke at all: "Xiaoyu, I have already thought about this matter. When the father returns to Beijing, I will go and talk to the father."

   "You have made meritorious deeds in the country and died for the great Wei Jiangshan. This is what you deserve."
