General

"Uh...Master..." Ling Feng ran two steps with black lines all over his head, knelt down in front of Lanjing, and hurriedly changed the subject before he could say, "The south of the city is the largest city near the capital. The ferry is over, and the subordinates have already arranged the boats, Qiu Yang said that going down the river does not require extra sailors, he can sail the boats himself, what does the master think?"

"According to the current situation... the fewer people, the better. Since he said yes, let him try." Lan Jing frowned and pondered for a moment, then looked down at his tense back, He continued to instruct, "Today you ask Ning Yu to go to the market to buy some supplies first, let's rest for a while, and set off tomorrow morning."

"Uh...yes..." Ling Feng hesitated for a moment, although he reluctantly agreed, but that hesitation did not escape Lan Jing's eyes at all, he tilted his head to stare at Ling Feng, lowered his voice and asked Said: "What happened to Ning Yu?"

"Ning Yu is fine." Ling Feng bit his lip and shook his head slightly, but his eyes were a little dodgy.

Lan Jing knew Ling Feng too well, just by looking at his expression at the moment, he knew that things were never that simple, he took two steps forward coldly, stared into Ling Feng's eyes, and asked in a low voice with a little displeasure :"be honest."

"Master..." Ling Feng knelt on the ground and looked at him with a little anxiety, hesitating for a long time, and finally took out a secret letter from his arms and presented it to Lan Jing with both hands.Raising his eyes, he cautiously glanced at Li Xuan who was standing not far away, then hastily withdrew his gaze, and said in a low voice, "Master, please take a look."

Li Xuan could see the hesitant look in his eyes.

Lan Jing opened the letter, glanced at it briefly, and his whole body tensed up slightly. He quickly folded the letter, frowning, and coldly handed it back to Ling Feng, saying in a low voice: "I knew."

Ling Feng nodded, and retreated with the secret letter in his arms, Lan Jing quietly looked sideways at Li Xuan, seeming a little guilty.

"What's the matter?" Li Xuan fixedly looked into his eyes, those eyes were extremely sharp, as if he could see right through him.

"Uh..." Lan Jing hesitated for a moment, and a fake relaxed smile appeared on his face, but his fingers were quietly clenched on the hem of his clothes in anxiety, "He said he would go ahead and go to Jiangnan to assist the spies in investigating Feng Yu. The matter of the little prince."

"Oh?" Li Xuanjun raised his eyebrows lightly, but his deep black eyes suddenly darkened, and he snorted displeasedly, "Is that so..."

"Uh...um." Lan Jing nodded slightly, but her heart was pounding, and she replied with her downcast eyes pretending to be calm, and she didn't dare to look into his eyes again.

Li Xuan curled his lips lightly, and gave him a meaningful smile, then turned around alone, and walked slowly towards the inn: "That's okay..."

Appears to be polite, but in fact alienated.

How could Lanjing not understand?

He silently bit his lips, and followed Li Xuan cautiously, but until he entered the door, Li Xuan never said a word to him again, as if the warmth he felt not long ago had all disappeared in an instant.

They share the same bed, but there is an indifferent back.Lan Jing knew that he was angry that she lied to him and betrayed the rare trust between the two, but he couldn't express what was hidden in his heart after all.

He turned sideways, and slowly leaned towards Li Xuan's strong back.Her arms were around his waist, and her forehead rested lightly on the back of his neck.Li Xuan's breathing stagnated slightly, and the muscles on his body tensed up quietly.He raised his hand, hesitated for a moment with his stiff arm, but in the end he neither broke free nor turned around, but slowly covered his cold fingers, and gently put them into his brocade quilt.

……

The ferry closest to the capital is really a bustling scene.A ferry boat is neatly moored on both sides, full of all kinds of goods. When the ship docks, there will be a constant flow of strong men carrying goods along the boardwalk of the pier. Even if the weather is bitingly cold, But they were still all red.

The horses and carriages were temporarily stored, and the food and supplies were packed. When Lan Jing and Li Xuan arrived on board, Qiu Yang had already arranged all the things in sweat, and was waiting on the deck with a smile on his face.

"Master!" Qiu Yang kowtowed respectfully, his eyes were clear, but there was an unbearable warmth in his eyes.

Lan Jing stood in the middle of the deck and looked around, and couldn't help nodding in satisfaction.This boat doesn't look big, but fortunately it is sturdy and flexible. The cabins are divided into several rooms, some for people and some for storage, but they are neatly arranged.

He took a piece of handkerchief and put it in Qiu Yang's hand, looked at the sweat dripping slowly from his forehead, and said in a low voice, "Wipe off your sweat and take a rest, you will have to work hard these days."

"Yes, master, don't worry." Qiu Yang took the handkerchief with both hands and stared at it for a long while, finally he was still reluctant to use it, folded it lightly, put it in his arms, raised his hand and rubbed his sleeve hard on his forehead rubbed.

"Master, master." Ling Feng got out of the cabin, deliberately stiffened his neck so as not to look at the water, but his face was still a little pale.He sneaked a look at Li Xuan, who had a bad face, and knew that yesterday's matter must not be properly resolved, so he sighed faintly, turned his head and cupped his fists at Lan Jing and said, "The bedroom has been tidied up, and the meals are also prepared on the low table." Come on, this morning Qiu Yang went down the river and caught two live fish to make soup, you can try it while it's hot."

"How are you?" Lan Jing nodded, looking at his pale face, she teased slightly, "If you hadn't rushed to Jiangnan, you could have made a detour, but now that the situation is urgent, it's a bit difficult for you. "

"It's okay for my subordinates." Ling Feng shook his head slowly, clasped his fists in embarrassment and said seriously.

But his expression of barely holding on, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like "no problem".

Lan Jing nodded slightly, pursed her lips and glanced at Li Xuan, who was always silent beside her, and finally shed a bit of teasing, and softly took his arm to please him: "The wind is strong on the river, let's hurry up Come in."

Li Xuan looked down at his handsome face, but the doubts in his belly were like vines that suddenly took root and sprouted, strongly entangled in his heart, and the entanglement became tighter, making him a little suffocated.

He raised his hand and pinched Lan Jing's chin, forcing him to look at him. After so long, he never realized what kind of secrets were hidden under this seemingly innocent gaze? !

"Cough..." Ling Feng saw the two standing on the deck in a strange atmosphere, blowing the cold wind, and was suddenly worried about Lan Jing's body, so he couldn't help but cleared his throat, and respectfully saluted Li Xuan, "General , the master is just recovering from a serious illness, and he can't stand the cold, so let's talk first if you have anything to say."

Li Xuan was taken aback for a moment, and found that he, who had always been calm, had unknowingly lost control. He immediately let go of his grip in annoyance, looked down at Lan Jing's flushed cheeks that had been pinched by him, until After confirming that he was safe, he turned around and walked into the cabin alone.

The interior of the cabin was neatly arranged, with two pots of charcoal fires gathered, and Lan Jing’s favorite incense was quietly lit in the copper incense burner. Two group brocade cushions are placed side by side on the same side.

Li Xuan sat on the brocade mat lightly in his clothes, raised his hand to fill a bowl of fish soup and put it on the table.Lan Jing hurriedly sat down next to him, continued to repeat the old tricks, and looked at him eagerly.

Li Xuan didn't hesitate this time, but took a spoon and put it into a small bowl, and gently pushed them together in front of him, as if the soup was originally meant for him.

Lan Jing was a little taken aback by the flattery, and quickly and carefully picked up the porcelain bowl and brought it to her lips.The hot air lingering in front of my eyes rushed towards my face with a strong fresh fragrance, but the warmth that passed over the tip of the tongue quietly reached the bottom of my heart.

"Are you still drinking?" Seeing that he drank half a bowl in one go, Li Xuan stretched out his hand to take it, his eyes as calm as water showed no trace of emotion.

Lan Jing held the soup bowl in both hands, but didn't move a little, just looked at him silently for a while, then sighed inaudibly: "Ning Yu...he really went to the four counties in the south of the Yangtze River."

Li Xuan's hands froze suddenly, as if he didn't expect him to take the initiative to bring up the matter again.He quietly concealed the fleeting surprise in his eyes, put another bowl of fish soup in front of him, and replied lightly: "Yes."

"But the reason..." Lan Jing bit her lower lip lightly, and whispered with guilt, "I can't tell you yet..."

"At least for now...can't..."

Lan Jing half-kneeled up and rubbed against Li Xuan's side, then gently covered his arms with both hands: "Li Xuan... I know you are angry that I lied to you, but I also have my own difficulties... ..."

Lan Jing's eyes, as clear as water, quietly condensed on his face, pitifully with a bit of flattery.Li Xuan lowered his head slowly, but the corner of his mouth slightly raised a beautiful arc.

He put down the porcelain bowl containing the fish soup, turned his face slightly, and looked back at Lan Jing seriously: "I reserve the right to answer for you, Lan Jing..."

"But no matter what, don't use such clumsy lies to prevaricate me anymore, because... I don't want to destroy the hard-won trust between us." He raised his hand, gently stroking Lan Jing's handsome face, his eyes were Quietly faded a bit of coldness.

"Yeah." Lan Jing suddenly nodded happily, grabbed Li Xuan's neck, and let herself fall into his warm embrace, "I promise you!"

The warm aura belonging to Li Xuan lingered around his side, making him suddenly intoxicated.Lan Jing raised her head slightly, her narrow and beautiful eyes looked at Li Xuan's eyes flickeringly, and said coquettishly, "Xuan, my wind and cold have recovered..."

Li Xuan's heart was warmed by his sweet and greasy tone, he raised his hand and hugged Lan Jing's tight waist, caressed, while curling up the corners of his mouth wickedly, and said in a hoarse voice: "Then Eat something and rest early."

Lan Jing smiled slightly, as if she didn't hear it, she cupped Li Xuan's handsome face with both hands, and kissed his lips hard...
