empress and princess

Outside the carved window, the wind has stopped and the snow has stopped, and the frost is three feet deep. The green lake in the garden has frozen, and there is no greenery to be seen. close.

And the listless person by the window was none other than Gongsun Yan of the General's Mansion. She rested her cheeks on her hands, and her mind was full of thoughts about the person she liked.

Last time it was agreed to meet today, so she got up early and waited happily until now, but the man still didn't come.

The girl became emotional and thought, from anticipation to loss, she sighed again and again.

Suddenly, a strange smell came from the quiet bedroom, and the tip of Gongsun Yan's nose moved, smelling like sweet wine.

She doesn't drink wine, where did it come from?

Gongsunyan was puzzled, she sniffed the smell and got up, and suddenly saw a person sitting on the bed!

"Is Miss Gongsun waiting for me?" The man sat casually, with an elegant demeanor, with a shallow curve on his lips, holding a delicate bag that smelled of wine in his hand; it was Ji Huang who came!

Not being the king of Qin, she became more casual when she was living among the people, and her frown and smile became more romantic.

Finally waiting for the person she likes, the moment Gongsun Yan sees her, she is suddenly enlightened, and immediately steps forward, almost unable to control herself and throws herself into the person's arms regardless of her identity, and the joy in her eyes cannot be concealed.

"when did you come?"

"Not long, just arrived." Qin Tangjing was knocked over by her enthusiasm and almost turned over, and grabbed the window frame beside him to stabilize himself.

"I thought you weren't coming." Gongsun Yan looked like an innocent girl, she didn't think there was anything wrong with holding Ji Huang, but stomped her feet excitedly, and asked after the joy passed, "By the way , how did you get in?"

The General's Mansion is heavily guarded, and she thought Ji Huang would pass the report on to others.

Qin Tangjing stood up with Gongsun Yan in his arms, and pulled away a little distance without any trace, "I want to see you, there are more ways than difficulties."

This sentence made the little girl laugh from ear to ear.

"But the General's Mansion is too big, if you don't pay attention, you will get lost." Qin Tangjing raised his mouth seemingly casually.

"Well then, it's rare for you to come here. I'll show you around my house so that you won't get lost next time." Gongsun Yan couldn't wait, and walked outside with her arms around Qin Tangjing.

It would be beneficial for both of them to get acquainted with the General's Mansion, and she still hoped that Ji Huang would marry her in the future.

"It's not good to be seen by your father. After all, I didn't come in through the main entrance." He said pretendingly.

"It's okay! My father hasn't come back from the military camp yet."

"Then your mother..."

"She also went out to visit."

The two old masters of the General's Mansion are gone, and there is only such a young master left.

So Qin Tang walked around the General's Mansion openly and aboveboard.

There were countless houses, pavilions, towers and pavilions that entered and exited frequently. After half an hour, she was dazzled by the stroll.

Gongsuncha hid the eyes of the array very deeply. She was not as familiar with the formation of the array as Little Huangshu, so that she couldn't find the eye in the end.

As for his daughter, Gongsun Yan, she is not deeply involved in the world, and has a straightforward and simple nature. It has been a long time since she met her and she has devoted her heart and soul to her. Perhaps it is because of this trust that there is no intrigue and no need to be vigilant all the time, which is quite comfortable.

"I'm so tired, I can't walk anymore, take a rest." Not long after, Gongsun Yan complained.

After walking around for a while, the results were not great, Qin Tangjing gave up searching, and now he had a general understanding of Gongsunyan's temperament, so he smiled and said to her: "Boqiu, would you like to go out with me to play?"

With these words, Gongsun Yan's eyes lit up, "Yes, I am willing!"

After arriving at the city gate excitedly, the two rode a steed together and galloped all the way south, leaving a series of footprints in the snow.

The cold wind was bitter, and the girl's crisp laughter whistled in her ears; Gongsun Yan opened her arms and cheered happily against the wind.

One day, the snowflakes began to slowly fall again.

Now Qin Tangjing is not as strong and strong as before, and she has no internal breath to keep out the cold. She is extremely afraid of the cold, and exhales a few mouthfuls of white mist continuously.

Maqian Gongsun Yan felt itchy when she smelled it, so she asked loudly, "Is the wine good?"

The person behind him didn't say a word, he directly stretched out the pouch to signal her to taste it.

Gongsun Yan took two sips quite boldly, her throat felt hot first, then she felt nauseated, her facial features wrinkled instantly, and she quickly stuck out her tongue, "It's not good at all!" Smelling the fragrance, drinking it was bitter and astringent.

Qin Tangjing laughed, "This is wine with medicinal herbs, of course it doesn't taste good."

"No wonder, what kind of wine needs medicinal materials?"

"Acacia wine."

"It's a weird name, I've never heard of it before."

"Less playfulness, read more and you will know." There is no such thing as acacia wine in the world, and it is self-brewed.

Gongsun Yan was being scolded, and turned her head to make a face at Ji Huang.

The horse is still running aimlessly, the speed is fast and the wind is strong. Gongsun Yan has never ridden a horse and snowed with a person like this, and she is still with the person she likes. The mood is quite carefree. The whole person seems to be rippling in the spring breeze. She releases it to the fullest. The laughter broke out again.

But the road always has an end, and finally came to a stream, and the horseshoe finally stopped.

"Sister Jihuang, you hug me down." After the relationship became intimate, Gongsun Yan called her sister, and she dared to act coquettishly.

Qin Tangjing just smiled, stretched out his hand, and the two fell to the ground at the same time.

"Happy?"

"Happy!" Gongsun Yan's face was already smiling like a flower, "I've never been so happy."

The girl was really innocent, without any vigilance at all. Qin Tangjing looked at her and didn't know what to say for a while, so he could only answer with his hands behind his back: "That's good, I'll take you back home later."

"No, it's still early, let's play for a while and take a look at the scenery."

After finally getting the chance to be alone, no matter what, you have to seize it. Gongsun Yan walked over ghostly and took Ji Huang's arm.

After succeeding, she snickered with trembling lips.

"Sister Jihuang, what do you think about marrying me?" I called out to Sister Jihuang a few times, and then it became smoother.

"You are still young and don't understand love, waiting for you..."

"I'm sixteen and I can get married. Could it be that you're already married?" Gongsun Yan said hastily.

"unmarried."

"That's fine, you are unmarried and I am unmarried, so we can make a couple."

Gongsun Yan was very happy.

Qin Tangjing supported her forehead, she was really frivolous and reckless when she was young, and this also made her finally understand how she felt when being entangled with others. She was only seventeen or eighteen years old at the time, and the princess of the dead ghost could not bear to kill her with a palm at that time. Enough to save face.

Thinking of the woman in the dusty white dress, Qin Tangjing frowned slightly, and also thought that there was not much time left for her.

Not seeing Ji Huang's voice for a long time, Gongsun Yan shook her, "Sister Ji Huang, what are you thinking?"

Qin Tangjing stopped his thoughts, looked at the snowy stream, and said in a calm tone, "I think of an old friend."

"Old man?"

"Well, I have to save her, otherwise she will only die."

"Did she commit a crime?" Gongsun Yan hissed.

Qin Tangjing nodded and said, "Death crime."

"..." Gongsun Yan drooped her face and said nothing. She just looked down at her toes and said after a long time, "Then before you go to save her, can you spend my [-]th birthday with me first?"

"When?"

"Just the first month, five days later."

Gongsun Yan tugged at her sleeve, looking pitiful as if she had been abandoned by everyone.

Qin Tangjing thought for a while, and asked the question calmly, "Yes, but the gate of the city was closed at that time, so I couldn't get in."

Once the city is closed and the formation is activated, it will not work by force, unless...

"It's okay, I'll just drive it for you, as long as you come to celebrate my birthday with me!"

"You opened the city?" Qin Tangjing looked surprised and hesitated, "Your father will definitely not agree, what will you do if you are found out?"

"If you don't tell me, my father won't know." Gongsun Yan was anxious.

The snow was still falling down at this time, Qin Tangjing raised his hand, his eyes were gentle, and he gently brushed the white snow from Gongsun Yan's hair, the corners of his lips gradually deepened, "Silly girl, do you trust me so much?"

Asked suddenly, seeing her charming smile again, Gongsun Yan was stunned.

Ji Huang was so beautiful and beautiful, it took her a long time to pull back her soul, and said word by word: "You are not a bad person, I believe in you."

You are not a bad person, I believe you.

But the king is not an ordinary person, sitting in that position is used to being suspicious, and he has long regarded the word trust more than fate.

There are more than ten thousand rivers and mountains on the shoulders.

Later, Qin Tangjing was still smiling in the wind and snow: "Okay, see you in Haishi five days later."

See you in five days.

They each had their own thoughts, and in a blink of an eye, it was the time agreed by both parties.

During the day, the sun was out and there was no wind or snow.

In the evening, the snow covered the sky like goose feathers, the frosty wind was cold, and the sky was very gloomy.

In front of Guiling City, someone came to the wind and fur, her long eyelashes were covered with snow, which melted into water and dripped down her cheeks when she was hot. One sound, ten rings.

The heavy city gate finally issued a 'creak' response, and soon opened a thin crack.

"Is this Miss Jihuang here?" someone asked in a low voice inside the door.

"Yes."

The slit was opened again, and the man who spoke poked his head out, first glanced at her, the night was too dark to see his face clearly, he saw that she was the only one outside, and asked people to continue to open the city gate with a little reassurance.

When the gap was opened enough to allow people to pass through, Qin Tangjing stepped in, but stood still after two steps.

"Miss Jihuang, my master is waiting for you in front." The man hurriedly urged, but the city gate was blocked and could not be closed.

"Thank you for your help, I would like to pay a little respect, money for wine and tea." Qin Tangjing took out an ingot of gold, stuffed it into the man's hand, and then moved forward. No one saw the sneer on her lips, In the dark night the gold gleamed instantly.

'Creak creak' the city gate slowly closed.

Having got so much money, enough to live comfortably for a lifetime, the man was quite excited, and he took a bite out of it, real gold.

Temporarily greedy for money, he didn't even notice that the "creaking" sound had stopped, and the people who pushed the door couldn't push it even with all their strength. Just when they thought they were blocked by something, a person suddenly rushed into the crack!

The man was still immersed in his own world, and he couldn't recover until he died.

The gold fell into the snow and was annihilated together with the blood.

On an uninhabited street corner, a ray of candlelight illuminates the eagerly awaited girl on the eaves.

Soon, a figure appeared from the vast darkness.

The visitor was still rushing over the ground, but the girl had already run towards her, "Ji Huang!"

Qin Tangjing stopped and raised her eyes in search of a sound, as if she was looking at her, but also as if she was looking at a void; the person had already rushed over, so she had no choice but to catch it with her hands and smiled, "Happy 17th birthday."

"Let's have fun together." Gongsun Yan bared her teeth and huddled happily in her arms, but it didn't spoil her joy.

Qin Tangjing took out the gift she had prepared, but there were some chaotic sounds coming from behind the two of them. She paused for a while, but she didn't intend to cover it up. Gongsun Yan is a martial artist with excellent hearing.

"What's the matter, do you hear any sound over there?" Sure enough, it couldn't escape the little girl's ears.

"No, you heard it wrong." Qin Tangjing said seriously, and quietly raised his hand.

"Really, could someone be..."

The words were stagnant, Gongsun Yan just looked towards the direction of the city gate, only to feel the back of the neck was hit, and then her eyes darkened and she fell into a coma.

The ghost Ah Yan appeared at the right time, and Qin Tangjing gave her the man, "This girl is kind to me, so I take good care of her."

"According to the order."

Concealing the unprepared will far reduce the loss than the trick of slapping the east and the west.

The array formed by Gongsun Cha is powerful, but if a city gate is not closed, it cannot be opened.

So tonight's battle was won by surprise.

The four city gates were soon bloodbathed, and the general's mansion was surrounded by groups. Gongsun Chai was trapped in the mansion and couldn't break through. He gritted his teeth with hatred, and Guiling was heavily guarded. No matter what, he couldn't figure out what the enemy was doing. break in.

Is the other party a human or a ghost? !

Until—King Qin appeared.

At this time, Gongsun Chai had few guards around him, and he was also injured, but he was still brave and mighty, holding a knife in his hand, and killed four or five people directly with one strike.

With Gongsun Chai as the center, corpses were piled up and down on the ground, and whoever went up died, which made Qin Jun a little afraid and dared not go forward.

"General Gongsun, everything is a foregone conclusion, no matter how much you resist, life and death are only one thing."

Qin Tangjing walked slowly on the bloodstains all over the floor, the blood was like a canal, and instantly dyed the dragon pattern on the corner of her robe red, the folding fan beat on the palm of her hand, and Canzhu jumped and said this sentence sharply.
