Small wood

This is the first time for Amu to see the princess up close. Just as he thought, the princess has a delicate face, her eyes are very beautiful and charming Danfeng, and her lips are light-colored, like a peony.

When Amu was standing at the door, the princess also saw him, put down the cup in her hand, and the bottom of the cup knocked lightly on the table.

"Mr. Lin." She spoke, facing Amu, her voice was like a bird, gentle and pleasant.

Amu has never learned etiquette, so he doesn't even know how to move his hands at this time, so he can only carry them behind his back.

"Mr. Lin, don't be nervous, I'm just here to sit." She said, putting her hands on her knees, slowly and straightly, it's just a small movement, but it's very expensive, and Amu is a little bit ignorant how to speak.

After thinking for a while, he walked up to the princess and said directly, "What does the princess want to ask?" He knew that the princess would not come to him for no reason.

The woman sitting on the seat was slightly stunned, but it was only for a short moment. She smiled and said: "Mr. Lin is a real person, and you don't need to be bound by etiquette. Just call me, sister Zhuangwu." With a very shallow smile, the lip line was slightly shiny, moist and moist: "If I read correctly, you should be a year or two younger than me." When she said the last sentence, she saved Ben Gong I was directly used instead of the title, and I relaxed my body slightly, without putting so much pressure on Amu.

Amu breathed a sigh of relief, and called out, "Sister Zhuangwu."

Zhuang Wu nodded and motioned to him: "Sit down quickly."

Amu sat down on the seat next to him and looked at Zhuangwu. He was still a little at a loss, his eyes were a little round, and he was holding his pants, but he didn't show timidity at all. I was very nervous like an unknown enemy.

Zhuang Wu looked at him with softness in her eyes, and she said, "You and Your Highness the Third Highness should leave in a few days."

Amu nodded: "Young Master didn't say when, but it's been a few days."

"You call him son." Zhuang Wu smiled: "You and him are not in a master-servant relationship, but they are not limited to monarchs and ministers, so why call him son."

"I got used to it. I was called Young Master at the beginning, but I couldn't change it later." Amu replied honestly.

Zhuang Wuen said, and when the wind blew into the hall, the hairpin on her hair swayed slightly, making her ears shiny and small, and the broken hair around her ears fluttered slightly, she said: "I like the third highness very much, but it's a pity He doesn't like me."

As she spoke, her eyes dimmed.Amu couldn't answer, so he just listened to her.

"When my father told me about him, I was just amazed, how could there be such a tough person, after seeing him, I couldn't stop liking him, the way he sat in the hall and listened attentively, it was hard to understand Don't be tempted, I thought, marrying him should be good."

Amu was a little dazed, he didn't know why Zhuang Wu, who was a princess, wanted to tell him this.

"I asked my father to give you the ordeal before you came to the North Kingdom. I thought, if you want to marry me, you have to have some courage. I am also very happy that you have survived. But I found that the Third Highness is not He likes me." She said: "He has such a peaceful and stable face to everyone, and he is more gentle and polite to me, but in his eyes, there is no liking, and I can't detect any emotion in his eyes."

"I saw you later," Zhuang Wu shook his head, and the hairpin rattled softly, "I saw the emotion in his eyes, and the emotion in his voice when he called your name."

Amu shrank back, he knew that Zhuang Wu was talking about the incident in front of the steps of Huiyue Palace, and Zhuang Wu left in a panic that time, he must have felt very ashamed.

"At first, I felt ashamed. I was a princess, but he left me behind. After thinking about it, I was even more curious. Are you and Your Highness the third prince in love?" Zhuang Wu asked him suddenly.

Amu stared at her blankly, his face flushed a little: "I like the young master."

Zhuang Wu nodded: "I don't know how far Gu Guoxing's masculinity has reached, but in the royal family, masculinity is not prevalent. In the future, when he wins the Gu Guo, he will definitely marry a wife for the sake of his children. At that time, what should you do?" ?”

Amu didn't speak, just sat there, looking at Zhuangwu.

Zhuang Wu was just asking questions, with a curious face, without any malice.

But Amu couldn't answer it anyway, he hadn't thought about the question so far.

So he said: "I don't know, I just like the son, I didn't think so far."

Zhuangwu looked at Amu, seeing his eyes all the time, but Amu's eyes were so clear and bright that Zhuangwu couldn't speak for a while.

She smiled, and suddenly took the cold tea beside her, took a sip, and put it back.

She said: "I came here this time just to say goodbye to His Highness the Third Highness, but since I'm here, I also want to see what kind of person you are."

"I saw you and talked to you. It's time to go now." She stood up, her long skirt dragging to the ground, and her ring jingled.

Amu also stood up and said politely, "Sister Zhuangwu, goodbye."

Zhuangwu smiled, and stretched out her hand, as if she wanted to touch Amu's head, but she put it back and stood dignifiedly: "We will never see you again." She said, and walked out the door .

Amu followed after walking a few steps and then stopped, because Zhuang Wu was walking fast but steady, standing in the sun step by step, the long and complicated palace attire did not make her bend her back.

Amu felt that this princess was a very good person.

"Master." Lin Yi suddenly stood beside him with an eager expression: "What did that woman say to Master?"

Amu said: "A woman? A princess? She didn't say anything, she just asked a few questions, didn't you hear?" Amu thought Lin Yi could hear it.

"That woman is not simple. When talking to the master, someone used internal force to set up a soundproof net, so the subordinates couldn't hear it." Lin Yi said with a frown.

Amu looked at the figure that was getting far away, and it seemed that he could still hear the crisp sound of the pendant ring in his ears.

He rubbed his eyes, sat down on the doorstep, and held his hands: "That princess is a good person."

Ji Dong stood beside him, perhaps because he felt that there was too much difference in height between the two of them, so he also sat down, slightly bent his legs, and the long sword was at hand: "How can I see that."

Amu shook his head: "It's just that feeling."

Lin Yi didn't speak for a while, his breathing was very light. After a while, he asked: "Master, do you really want to leave with Gu Lin? You can have a good time if you stay in Beiguo."

Amu didn't know why Lin Yi was still persuading him. He said, "Master is very important to me. Wherever he goes, I will go there."

Lin Yi sighed softly: "Since the master has made the decision, the subordinates have nothing to say."

He said: "Just ask Master and Gu Lin to say that we will be counted in the battle with Gu Guo."

Amu's eyes widened: "What?"

"Although the Lin family is gone, the century-old foundation doesn't mean it's gone. There are at least one or two hundred people who stay in the Northland. If they can help, the subordinates will definitely help."

But Amu panicked: "But you don't need to participate. If you fight, you will be injured." Amu was very confused, because according to Ji Dong's intention, the remaining people in Lin's family were there because he wanted to follow Gu Lin. Participated in the war, so he stuttered and didn't even know how to speak. He only knew that he would be injured, and he would be injured because of him.

Lin Yi shook his head: "Master, don't be nervous. The Lin family who stayed in the North Country are not ordinary people. What's more, we have endured the enmity of the Lin family for a long time. Now that the master has been found, we have nothing to take care of. It is better for Gu Lin to be in charge than for the enemy of the Lin family to be in charge."

Amu lowered his head and didn't speak.

"Master, don't worry too much." Lin Yi said, "Gu Lin has been planning for a long time, and this battle won't be too long."

Amu nodded, still did not speak, looked down at his toes, the flickering color of the sun when it fell on the shoe surface made his eyes sore.

He suddenly said: "No matter how short a battle is, it's still a battle, and I want to participate."

Lin Yi frowned slightly: "Master..."

"Although I don't know martial arts and have no internal strength, I can shoot arrows. I shoot arrows very well. When I am in the woods, I can shoot a fox in the eye tens of meters away." He said seriously, The black eyes were crystal clear, he was really considering the feasibility, not joking or trying to be brave.

Lin Yi looked at him deeply, and suddenly smiled: "It's useless for the master to tell me, after all, Gu Lin is the master general."

Amu put down the hand that was gesturing to shoot the arrow with some disappointment, and let out an oh.

He took out the straw grasshoppers from the room, carefully wrapped them in the towel, and went straight to Gu Lin.

He waited for Gu Lin to come out of the meeting room and asked directly: "My lord, can I go to the battlefield?"

Gu Lin's walking steps paused slightly, he patted Amu's head, and asked softly, "Why do you think so?"

"Jin Yi said that they want to help the young master." Amu said: "I want to help too, I am very good at archery."

When in the woods, Gu Lin didn't want to open his mouth, so at that time, Amu talked about everything, big and small, in a mess, and kept talking.Of course, it also includes the matter of archery, don't mention how careful it is, which day you shoot, how many you shoot, your tone is full of pride.

Perhaps thinking of that time, a smile appeared on the corner of Gu Lin's mouth, and he said, "Okay."

Amu was taken aback, he didn't expect it to be so easy, and hurriedly threw himself into Gu Lin's arms: "Really?"

Gu Lin was pushed back by him, he put his arms around his back, kissed his forehead lightly, and said in a low voice: "As long as you can protect yourself, don't leave Ji Dong too far."

Amukuang nodded, very happy.

At that time, he was not surprised. Gu Lin was not surprised at all when he said that Ji Dong wanted to help.

In the next few days, exercise the clouds, practice archery, exercise the clouds, and practice archery.So these two things keep repeating.

Gu Lin would come to see him during the day and didn't bother.But when he was sleeping at night, he touched the thickened calluses on Amu's hands, rubbed them lightly, and sighed.

Three days later, he finally said to Amu, "It's tomorrow."

Tomorrow we will leave the Northland.

The war with Gu Guo has begun.
