This He Junyi was really weird, so An Jiu decided to test him again.

An Jiu quietly walked behind He Junyi, with a hidden needle hidden in his sleeve, and when he was about to stab He Junyi, He Junyi suddenly turned around to scoop up a ladle of water, and An Jiu missed it.

"Princess, are you going to cook by yourself?" He Junyi watched An Jiu throw herself to the side of the stove, then smiled and handed An Jiu a shovel. An Jiu gave him a blank look and walked away.

"The princess won't stay for a while?"

He Junyi still asked with a smile behind him, but An Jiu didn't bother to pay attention to him, and went straight back to the palace.

After returning to the palace, An Jiu sent someone to follow He Junyi to find out what he was doing and who he was in contact with. For some reason, An Jiu just felt that He Junyi was not simple, not like an ordinary general.

The emperor was very happy, thinking that An Jiu had changed his mind and started to notice He Junyi, and there were less restrictions on her behavior. Although there were many people watching An Jiu, at least An Jiu could enter and leave the palace freely.

An Jiu suddenly liked He Junyi and came to the palace to find her. Every time he was accompanied by He Junyi, An Jiu could go out of the palace to have a look at the scenery outside, so as not to be suffocated to death in the palace.

But An Jiu missed Tang Ruochu more and more. She wondered if Tang Ruochu was still feeling sorry for her, and wondered if Tang Ruochu was missing her too.

An Jiu began to write letters to Tang Ruochu. Although she knew that she would not be able to deliver even one letter, every time An Jiu carefully wrote an apology letter and miss letter to Tang Ruochu, she always fantasized about the time when Tang Ruochu received this letter. Maybe she will laugh, maybe she will complain about the cruel words she said back then.

An Jiu thought that if she could see Tang Ruochu again, she would be willing to be stabbed to death by Tang Ruochu's sword.

But An Jiu was also afraid that Tang Ruochu would come looking for her. If Tang Ruochu came, she wondered if her father would really kill her.

An Jiu felt irritable, sighed, raised her head and asked the maid beside her: "Has He Junyi come today?"

When the maid heard An Jiu mentioning He Junyi, she couldn't help but sniggered, and quickly said, "The general didn't come today, do you want me to help the princess to invite the general over?"

"No need." An Jiu didn't bother to look at the palace maid's expression, as if she had fallen in love with He Junyi now.

I don't know what the maid said to the father, but the father let An Jiu go out of the palace to play, as if he had lifted the restraint.

The wedding was approaching, An Jiu knew that her father thought she had accepted the marriage, unless An Jiu went to the Jianghu League to find Tang Ruochu, otherwise no one would control An Jiu's whereabouts, and An Jiu would no longer be under surveillance.

An Jiu happily walked out of the palace gate, from the street to the end of the street, but her footsteps stopped at the gate of the city. She thought that maybe Tang Ruochu could be seen in this city.

An Jiu's action frightened the guards guarding the city, and dozens of guards rushed off one after another, as if they were afraid that An Jiu would really go out.

An Jiu glanced at the guards, didn't bother to talk to them, but turned around and walked to another food shop.

"Miss proprietress, give me a bowl of bean curd noodles." An Jiu suddenly went to a shop and sat down, calling for the proprietress, tapping on the table with her fingers and sizing up the figure of the proprietress.

The person sent by An Jiu replied that He Junyi would detour to this noodle shop every time to buy bean curd noodles, and then stay for more than half an hour. I heard that He Junyi would sometimes stare at the back of the proprietress in a daze, and sometimes He Junyi would just stop Stop sighing.

According to the person who responded, An Jiu suspected that He Junyi already had a sweetheart, and his sweetheart was the proprietress of this shop.

As for He Junyi's frequent visits to the palace, she was only forced by her father, so they were all dissatisfied with this marriage, but there was nothing they could do.

"coming."

When the proprietress turned around, An Jiu paid special attention to her, but she didn't want to be just an ordinary woman with a smile all over her face. Although she wasn't ugly, she couldn't tell that there was anything special about her. The only characteristic was the sunny smile on her face. .

The proprietress put the bean curd noodles in front of An Jiu, and An Jiu couldn't see anything even when he looked closely at the proprietress.

"Does it look good?"

An Jiu looked at the proprietress, but still shook her head and said, "General."

"What about that side?"

"good."

An Jiu just took a bite, and suddenly turned her head to meet He Junyi's smiling face, she was so scared that she almost spat out the noodles in her mouth.

Sitting next to An Jiu, He Junyi asked, "So the princess also likes noodles."

"I don't like it." An Jiu turned his face away.

Thinking about it, she was just bored and casually asked He Junyi, but the ladies in the court guessed that she was missing spring. If she followed He Junyi a little more, the rumors would not spread to the sky?

At this moment, the proprietress took a look at He Junyi, and put the bean curd noodles in front of him. An Jiu felt strange, since He Junyi came in, she hadn't ordered anything yet.

He Junyi smelled the aroma of the noodles, and asked, "Hmm~ It's still the same smell, green onions~"

"No." The proprietress smiled and answered He Junyi's unfinished question.

"Where's the chili?"

"I put two extra tablespoons for you, eat so much chili, be careful of getting angry."

"Don't be afraid, anyway, I have~"

"If you drink clear tea, you won't understand how spicy it is. You should drink less." The proprietress thought for a while, then waved her hand and said, "Forget it, drinking tea is fine, it's better than drinking every day."

He Junyi quickly explained: "I quit drinking."

"Ghosts believe you." The proprietress gave He Junyi a blank look, "It's not called abstinence just for one or two hours."

He Junyi just smirked.

The proprietress smiled and said: "Business is good today, I don't have time to talk to you, you can eat slowly!"

As the proprietress said, she turned and greeted other guests, An Jiu who was on the side was stunned.

An Jiu narrowed his eyes and looked at He Junyi, and said, "He Junyi, do you dare to cheat out of the wall in front of this princess?"

puff!

He Junyi didn't slow down, and just sprayed the noodles out.

He Junyi looked at the back of the proprietress, and after making sure she hadn't noticed, she quickly wiped the dirty table with a rag, and then said back to An Jiu, "Your Highness, don't get me wrong, the proprietress and I are just friends. "

"Ghosts believe you." An Jiu glanced at He Junyi, and continued: "The legendary former martial arts leader Jun Tianxia has actually become a lackey of the imperial court. Aren't you afraid of being chased and killed by various sects in the Jianghu when word spreads?"

He Junyi was taken aback, but he didn't feel the tension and embarrassment after being exposed by An Jiu. Instead, he ate his noodles more naturally and said, "Princess Jiu is really smart."

"Stop flattering, He Junyi, tell me honestly, there are gossips about your mysterious disappearance back then, how did you come to the imperial court to become General Xuanyang?"

An Jiu was really curious, and looked at He Junyi seriously, waiting to hear the story.

He Junyi just finished eating the noodles, put down his chopsticks, and said: "Whether it is Jun Tianxia or He Junyi, or whether it is the leader of the martial arts alliance or the general Xuanyang, what I do is a good deed of chivalry, and it is a good deed for the benefit of the country and the people." , identity doesn’t matter at all.”

An Jiu asked suspiciously: "But don't people in the Jianghu hate people in the court?"

"What they hate are corrupt officials. Does the nine princesses think that the emperor I am loyal to is a fool?"

An Jiu thought for a while, then shook her head and said, "No."

He Junyi narrowed his eyes and asked, "Ninth Princess still has to think about this kind of question?"

Do you not trust your own father so much?

An Jiu said angrily: "I can understand that he is dedicated to the country, but I can't agree with his methods of dealing with the various sects in the world."

He Junyi said with a smile: "Bean curd and noodles are two different ingredients, but if they are cooked together in a bowl, they will bring out the deliciousness of the ingredients together. Although some ways are different, as long as you move in one direction, you will always be able to enjoy it." There is a time of unity."

"He Junyi."

"Ok?"

"You didn't study well before, did you?"

"Ahem, indeed, I used to play truant to fight crickets and fight with my peers, and every time I made my husband half angry, how would the ninth princess know?"

"From what you said."

He Junyi: "..."

An Jiu leaned forward and asked in a low voice, "He Junyi, what's the story between you and the proprietress?"

He Junyi subconsciously glanced at the proprietress, and said: "Actually, it's nothing. It's just a confidant who fought side by side in the past. Later, I withdrew from the arena, concealed my name, and went to battle to kill the enemy. She also lived in seclusion. Time has passed, and she can't recognize me anymore. Now I can't recognize each other, but I have become the proprietress and the customer."

He Junyi choked up for a moment, but An Jiu could hear something from the past.

An Jiu asked suspiciously: "Since you are a confidant, how can you not recognize it?"

"She's married." He Junyi's words made An Jiu fall silent, but He Junyi still said calmly: "And I'm about to marry the princess, some past events should go with the wind."

"I don't want to marry you."

An Jiu told the truth that she and He Junyi had no mutual admiration, and it was not suitable for them to be married by force.

He Junyi said: "Princess Ninth could choose to escape marriage but still stay. She must know the pros and cons of our marriage. Since the princess knows how to balance, don't be so quick to talk."

He Junyi told An Jiu what was on his mind. She could have stopped saying unfeeling words to Tang Ruochu, but she still did things that made Tang Ruochu sad. First of all, An Jiu was afraid that Tang Ruochu would continue to entangle her, and her father would not let her go. Second, An Jiu also knows the importance of marriage, this time she doesn't want to be willful.

She wants to be a person worthy of Tang Ruochu, she wants to have the world in her heart, but in that case she can no longer be with Tang Ruochu.

Seeing An Jiu's painful and entangled expression, He Junyi said, "Actually, as long as this marriage is completed, I, He Junyi, will become a consort. At that time, the sudden death of Princess Nine will not affect my status as a consort."

He Junyi pointed it out, but gave An Jiu a way to escape.

"But you should know that my royal father is afraid of the military power in your hands, and the reason for our marriage is to check and balance. If you don't have me, even if you sit on the status of a son-in-law, you will inevitably arouse the suspicion of the king."

He Junyi smiled and said: "This is my business. Don't worry, Princess Nine. He has been on the battlefield for many years, and He has relied on more than just fists."

An Jiu glanced at He Junyi and said, "Actually, you are doing it for yourself. If we really get married, then your identity will be exposed. Bullying the king is a capital offense."

He Junyi was taken aback for a moment, and then there was a wave of turmoil in his calm eyes, "What do you mean by Princess Nine's words?"

An Jiu smiled lightly and said, "You are a woman."

He Junyi was taken aback, "How did the Ninth Princess know that?"

"I peeked at you taking a shower."

He Junyi: "..."

"Haha~" An Jiu was amused by He Junyi's shocked expression, An Jiu said with a smile: "I'm just kidding, you look so motherly, you're either a eunuch or a woman."

After listening, He Junyi also looked helpless with An Jiu, so he could only smile.

After eating the noodles, when she was about to leave, An Jiu suddenly said into He Junyi's ear: "You have done me a big favor, and now I want to return you a big gift."

After An Jiu finished speaking, she ran back to the proprietress's shop and asked, "May I ask if the proprietress knows the former martial arts leader Jun Tianxia?"

The proprietress looked at An Jiu suspiciously. This little girl clearly came to eat noodles with He Junyi just now. Why did she suddenly ask her this question?

The proprietress said with a smile: "The Gentleman's Sword is the best sword in the world. No one in the Jianghu knows it, and no one knows it."

An Jiu continued: "Jun Tianxia entrusted me to find a former confidante of hers. I heard that the woman's martial arts skills were extremely high and her appearance was extremely beautiful. Unfortunately, the two separated by accident. The woman said she would be in the capital. Open a noodle shop and wait for her to come back, I wonder if the proprietress knows that woman?"

The proprietress said: "I have seen a girl who often came to my noodle shop to wait for someone. It was dark when she waited. She said that the person she was waiting for was a great hero. She went to battle to kill the enemy and defend the country, and she The only thing we can do is to wait for her to return on her triumphant journey, but one day, the news of that person’s death suddenly came, that person missed the appointment, and that girl got married before her great hero came back.”

An Jiu was startled, subconsciously glanced at He Junyi standing outside the door, but didn't know how to end it.

"If the girl has nothing else to do, I have to greet other guests, and please don't delay my business, I still have a daughter to raise at home!"

After hearing this, An Jiu had no choice but to say, "You take the liberty of interrupting me."

An Jiu quickly backed out.

An Jiu glanced at He Junyi, who still looked calm and left calmly.

The noodle shop customer shouted at the proprietress: "Madam proprietress, you have not been married for many years, where did you get your daughter?"

The proprietress only smiled and said, "That's an orphan girl I adopted, like an old friend I've seen for many years. Don't talk so much nonsense, everyone, you don't need to pay for noodles today. The proprietress invites everyone to eat bean curd noodles!"

"What is the happy event for the proprietress?"

"My wife is happy today!"

......

After An Jiu returned to the palace, he rushed to see his father and proposed to hold the wedding in advance. When An Jiu's father heard about it, he was taken aback at that time, looked at An Jiu suspiciously for a long time, and invited the imperial physician to help She felt her pulse to see if her brain had been damaged somewhere.

It wasn't until An Jiu asked again and again that An Jiu's father believed that An Jiu really wanted to marry He Junyi. He guessed that An Jiu had gotten along with He Junyi in the past few days and had a relationship, so he happily agreed.

An Jiu has been preparing for the wedding in person, and the maids congratulated her and He Junyi one after another.

But only An Jiu knew that she couldn't wait to get married, and she couldn't wait to see Tang Ruochu.

The big wedding in the same month was celebrated everywhere, and every house was decorated with lanterns and festoons. An Jiu put on a blood-red wedding dress and went all the way to He's mansion. That day An Jiu sat in the bridal chamber and waited for a long time. He Junyi, who was drinking with the guests outside, entered the room.

He Junyi lifted An Jiu's red hijab, and said with a smile, "Go! The back door is open!"

"Thank you!"

An Jiu sincerely thanked He Junyi.

An Jiu took off her heavy red wedding dress, and ran out non-stop. The back door of the He Mansion was open, and outside the door, the servant of the He Mansion led a horse and waited for An Jiu. An Jiu rode a horse to find him. Tang Ruochu, everything went so smoothly, An Jiu thought for a moment that she was dreaming.

But An Jiu was full of thoughts and only wanted to say one thing to Tang Ruochu: Wait for me.

Three months later, the nine princesses died suddenly, and the emperor turned his anger on his son-in-law, He Junyi, who was not good at taking care of the princess, and cut off her military power.

I heard that He Junyi was accompanied by a military lady when he left.
