General's Gown

Chapter 83 The Storm 8

Yan Changqing really didn't understand where Helian Rongchuan's nameless fire came from, but he was not a person who likes to argue, so he didn't speak, just peeled the oranges in his hand and put them on a white porcelain plate.Just as he got up and wanted to go out to enjoy the wind on the river, he saw Jiu Jin blushing and walked in in a panic: "Your Highness, our boat is surrounded!"

Helian Rongchuan was startled, stood up abruptly: "What happened!" and immediately walked out of the cabin.Yan Changqing's expression changed, he picked up his two swords and followed closely behind.But when they got out of the cabin door, the tense nerves of the two of them relaxed.

Helian Rongchuan slapped Jiu Jin's head with a slap, and was furious: "This is also called encirclement?!! This is also called encirclement!! Can you make it clear, huh?"

Yan Changqing looked at the scene in front of him dumbfounded. In fact, what Jiu Jin said was right, their boat was indeed surrounded - but it was not the imaginary water bandits or robbers who surrounded them, but a large group of Yingyingyanyans. The young ones are only fifteen or sixteen years old, and there are also women in their twenties, and occasionally quite charming young women.Without exception, they all carried a colorful fish lantern in their hands.

Seeing Yan Changqing coming out following Helian Rongchuan, there was a burst of surprise shouts from the crowd.The girls were either shy or straightforward, all looking at Yan Changqing and Helian Rongchuan.Yan Changqing didn't understand why he looked over, the timid girls blushed and hid immediately, the bold ones met his gaze carelessly, and even yelled at him directly:

"Young gentleman, you look so beautiful, where did you come from?

"It doesn't matter where you come from, if you accept our girl's colorful fish lantern, you will be the son-in-law of our town!"

Several voices said: "Oh, the one he took is not counted. My lamp is more beautiful, so he will definitely take me!"

"Mine is more beautiful, take mine!"

"Take mine!"

Nearly half of the girls were looking at Helian Rongchuan.

"Look, this gentleman is also very good-looking, handsome and burly, he looks like a high-ranking official!"

"Yes, yes! Are these two gods? I have never seen such beautiful characters!"

"Oh, I should be wearing my red silk dress today, maybe that little man will have his eyes on me!"

"No one will take a fancy to you no matter what you wear. You are not a mortal, but a god!"

"That person will definitely not look at you. Look at your rouge, does it look like a monkey's butt, hahaha..."

The girls were chattering, chattering excitedly, making noise, and a few brave ones even put their fish lanterns at the feet of Helian Rongchuan and Yan Changqing, and ran away shyly.

Yan Changqing's face was foggy and confused.Jiu Jin had no choice but to explain with a smile:

"Your Excellency, don't you know? These two days are our Dongyun's Qiqiao Festival. The girls who are waiting to be married are all selling things in the Qiqiao Market. On the one hand, they can earn some dowry money, and on the other hand, they are looking forward to meeting a good husband. The fish lantern is what they give to the person they like as a token of love. Once the man accepts it, he has accepted the woman's heart."

When Yan Changqing heard this, he felt bad.No wonder the girl selling oranges suddenly became so strange. It turned out that she was begging for a token of love from others, and she was misunderstood!

Then he said: "I don't know these customs, and the girl who sells oranges misunderstood it. I will return the lamp and explain the misunderstanding clearly."

As soon as these words were uttered, Helian Rongchuan's anger immediately disappeared like a strong wind blowing clouds.

Jiu Jin hurriedly stopped him with a smile: "My lord, there is no need. There are as many women in our Dongyun as in this small town, and they are savage. They will give them away when they see a good-looking man, and they can often give away three or four a day. And men never refuse to accept lamps in order not to make women lose face. So some popular men can accept six or seven lamps a day."

As Jiu Jin said, envy flashed in his eyes, and he said flatteringly:

"But it's the first time I've seen someone like you and the Second Highness being surrounded by so many girls' lanterns!"

Yan Changqing breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly remembered something, turned to look at Helian Rongchuan, and asked, "Did you know the meaning of this colorful fish lantern from the beginning, so..."

So by using the colorful fish lantern, do you secretly want to express your affection to him?

But hasn't he expressed his heart enough along the way?

Yan Changqing suddenly understood why Helian Rongchuan was inexplicably angry.It turned out that it was because the girl who sells oranges robbed him of the opportunity to confess his love.And he accepted the girl's lantern in a daze.That's why he's upset.

This man is jealous!

Yan Changqing couldn't laugh or cry.

Helian Rongchuan was exposed in public for his secretive thoughts, and he himself felt that he was a little naive and funny.He is an imposing man of nine feet, but he is worried about gain and loss because of a small matter. It seems that Yan Changqing is really his nemesis!

Having figured it out, Helian Rongchuan smiled, and thickened his face again: "I don't know what the meaning of this colorful fish lantern is. In short, no matter how rare something you like, I will bring it to you."

The man began to talk wildly again regardless of the occasion.Yan Changqing turned his head away in embarrassment, and changed the topic:

"Then what are you going to do with these lanterns?"

"Isn't that easy to dismiss?" He Lian Rongchuan smiled, jumped up to the highest point on the second floor of the cabin, and said loudly to Yingyingyanyan who was surrounded by her: "I appreciate the kindness of all the girls. But I already have someone I like, and I swear to accompany that person hand in hand, for the rest of my life, never leave, never leave, until I grow old."

While speaking, with a smile in the corner of his eyes, he looked towards Yan Changqing.

Inexplicably, Yan Changqing's ears became hot and his heart beat, he quickly turned his head away, pretending to look at the scenery as if nothing had happened.

"I'm so sorry for the deep love you all have. Girls, it's better to choose another lover, don't waste your time in vain."

After Helian Rongchuan finished speaking at the bow of the boat, he bowed respectfully to all the girls in a graceful and unrestrained way. He tiptoed his toes, his clothes fluttered, and landed beside Yan Changqing like a fairy, winking at him with a smile.

There was a sigh of regret and wailing from the shore.But how do these girls know who Helian Rongchuan's sweetheart is?Many unwilling people pointed to Yan Changqing again and said:

"What about this young gentleman? You also have someone you like?"

"Yes, yes, if the person you fancy is one of us, you have to point it out quickly. You are so handsome, they will definitely be willing to be nice to you!"

There was another playful and playful sound.All the girls stared at Yan Changqing, their red faces shyly looking forward.

Yan Changqing had never been surrounded by so many pink-faced and spring-like girls, and said awkwardly: "Cough, thanks to the wrong love... I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

He bowed, turned around and left in some embarrassment.

Disappointed sighs sounded from behind.Helian Rongchuan was in a good mood as if he was hearing fairy music, and said to everyone:

"Don't sigh, girls are going to leave soon. Huh? You ask who is his sweetheart? Hey, that is a top-notch wonderful person in heaven and earth. He has a good appearance, a good figure, and is proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting." , can hurt people, and is very rich, it's absolutely amazing..."

He boasted about himself solemnly, dismissed the crowd, and got into the cabin with a smile.

Yan Changqing was standing by the window, facing the river and blowing the wind.Helian Rongchuan leaned over, tilted his head, and jokingly said:

"Why, it's a pity to reject so many beautiful girls?"

Yan Changqing glared at him, did not speak, turned his head and continued to blow the wind.With half of his slender neck exposed, he looked extra alluring in the night.

Helian Rongchuan narrowed his eyes, picked up the orange that Yan Changqing had peeled just now, broke off two pieces and handed them to his lips:

"Eat oranges?"

The action was too intimate, Yan Changqing subconsciously stepped back a little, closed his lips, and turned his head away again.

He refused without saying a word.

Helian Rongchuan's words just now and those girls' unintentional questions made him very upset.He just wanted to be alone and calm down.But this person came over to make trouble again!

"If you don't want to eat, I will." As if expecting Yan Changqing's refusal, Helian Rongchuan was not annoyed at all, he laughed and ate two pieces of orange by himself.

"Well, it's so sweet!"

Hmph, didn't you just say that oranges are sour and you don't want to eat them?Yan Changqing couldn't help turning his head to look at Helian Rongchuan, but he never thought that Helian Rongchuan would suddenly lean so close to him. When he turned his head, his right hand suddenly grabbed the back of his head, gently but irresistibly. Kissed.

The moment his lips touched, Yan Changqing slightly opened his eyes wide in surprise.He was really too young, Helian Rongchuan took the opportunity to pry open his defenseless lips, forcing him to accept this domineering kiss.

The moist lips and tongue are lingering, and the fruity aroma of orange permeates the period.

Intoxicatingly sweet, with just the right amount of slightly sour.

"Well…"

It was terrible, just a deep kiss, Yan Changqing felt his knees go soft for a while.He subconsciously wanted to push Helian Rongchuan away, but Helian Rongchuan pressed him firmly into the corner, and he couldn't use his strength at all!

Two arms pressed against Helian Rongchuan's thick chest helplessly, as if wanting to refuse.Helian Rongchuan chuckled in his ear:

"Honey, why is your tongue sweeter than an orange?"

Yan Changqing's entire ears turned rosy, he couldn't bear it anymore and pushed Helian Rongchuan away, gave him a fierce look, and left.

He really needs some cooling air.

Helian Rongchuan twitched his lips and followed behind him.

Outside the cabin, the wide river surface, the bright moon is in the sky, the breeze is blowing, the silver waves are slightly swaying, and the beauty of the world is nothing more than that.

However, Crescent Moon Pass on the border of Monan, thousands of miles away at this time, is a different scene.

The sky collapsed and the ground collapsed, and there was a deafening rumbling sound. The towering Qinchuan city wall standing at the end of the vast desert finally turned into a pile of rubble in the dust several feet high.

In this major earthquake, Qinchuan City, once known as the Pearl of Monan, was completely reduced to ashes.

The last batch of thousands of people from Qinchuan City who were evacuated had just walked to the Crescent Pass, and they were still crying and cursing the move of moving the city. They all stood there dumbfounded like stone sculptures. Suddenly his knees gave way, and he fell to his knees with a plop, and kowtowed to the vast desert with tears streaming down his face.

"Master Yan is wise!, Mr. Yan is wise!"

"Master Yan, you are our savior!!"

"We were wrong, we were wrong!"

A magnificent carriage drawn by eight maroon horses, carved with dragons and embroidered with phoenixes, slowly drove past the disheveled crowd, and stopped outside the Crescent Pass.There were four columns lined up neatly outside the carriage, with 200 people in each column. Everyone was equipped with a unified sword, and their eyes were piercing. One could tell that they were well-trained.A guard walked through the neat column in a hurry and knelt down in front of the carriage.

The translucent golden dragon play cloud gauze was slightly opened a slit, and a letter was passed in.Zhang Jian unfolded the letter, hesitated for a moment, and read every word respectfully to Murong Xiu who was half lying on the cushion.

The non-stop running around for a long time made this little emperor who had always been pampered a bit too much.He didn't wear a gold silk crown, his long hair was casually loose, his fingers rested on his temples, and his long red phoenix eyes were half closed, showing a somewhat tired look.

But when he heard Zhang Jian read the content of the letter, he was shocked and opened his bloodshot eyes.

"What do you mean? The letter arrived, but the person disappeared?!"

Zhang Jian said: "According to the reports from Dongyun's spies, it is true...it is indeed the case. According to the current reports, we only know that they went to the south, and they took a waterway that is not easy to follow."

As he speculated on Murong Xiu's expression, he wondered: "Privately, I was thinking, maybe General Yan was really hurt by the people of Qinchuan as the court ministers said, so he didn't want to come back...?"

"Nonsense!" Murong Xiu slapped the desk: "No one in the world knows his temperament better than me. If he knew I was in trouble, he would definitely come back to help. Unless...unless..."

A figure of a man appeared in Murong Xiu's mind.With a wild and unruly smile and a complacent demeanor, he has a pair of sharp and deep brown eyes like a leopard.

That Prince Dongyun...

He must be playing tricks! !

Zhang Jian raised his head cautiously: "My minister has a way to make Lord Yan come back. I just don't know if the emperor is willing...?"

Murong Xiu said impatiently: "There are no outsiders here. What can be done, just say it."

Zhang Jian moved closer to Murong Xiu's ear and whispered.After finishing speaking, she still knelt respectfully at Murong Xiu's feet.

Murong Xiu frowned, as if it was the first time he knew this close minister who was making suggestions by his side and was cautious.After watching for a long while, he opened his mouth slowly, with a hint of hesitation in his voice:

"Last time I listened to your suggestion. In order to pay Changqing a meritorious service, I almost slaughtered the innocent people in Qixia Village. Because of this, Changqing has a lot to do with me. I often regret that the methods were too cruel. This Once, do you want to repeat the same mistakes?"

Zhang Jian kowtowed his head and said earnestly: "Your Majesty, this is your last chance. Seeing that the Dongyun people are getting closer and closer to Mr. Yan, their relationship is getting deeper and deeper. If you don't make a move again, Mr. Yan will be completely killed by that man." The people of Dongyun are confused and unable to extricate themselves. Lord Yan is the pillar of the country, and even more so... your concern. Your Majesty, whether it is for the country or for yourself, you must be ruthless this time!"

Murong Xiu leaned against the window and slowly looked outside.Not far away, thousands of people in Qinchuan, like disgraced livestock, are struggling in the desert.

"Let me think about it again."

Murong Xiu closed his eyes wearily.
