Hongdi

Chapter 218

Not long after, the boy brought two dishes of side dishes and a plate of buns into the room. Bei Chunjin got up to thank him. The boy smiled and ran out to bring in a small pot of porridge. Serve porridge.Bei Chunjin hurriedly stopped him, and said in his heart, this child is honest, seeing them so downcast, they can bring out so much food to entertain him, but he came empty-handed, it really shouldn't be...

The young man didn't think much about it, Zhang Luo finished his breakfast, turned around and entered his sister's boudoir again.Bei Chunjin frowned and smiled wryly. Maybe it's because the siblings have a good relationship, so they don't shy away from it.Just as she was thinking about it, the curtain of the back room was raised, and the woman came out in a moon-white long dress. In an instant, the courtyard was full of youth, and the whole room seemed to be coated with a layer of gold leaf by the morning sun, making it extremely glamorous.Bei Chunjin felt her heart beating wildly, and she was indescribably nervous.

The woman smiled softly, and sat across from him, "Master Guo Shi came so early, and the reception in the humble house is not good, so I still look at Haihan."

"Where is it? I was the one who was abrupt." Bei Chunjin was so nervous that she didn't know where to put her hands and feet, and just looked at her stupidly.

"Master Guoshi, we came here after fleeing from disaster, and we don't have any good treats for you. I hope you don't dislike these things." The woman said, she personally filled a bowl of porridge and handed it to him.

Bei Chunjin was flattered, and took it with both hands, "Miss Xueyao is too polite. I have been with the king for the past few days. If I didn't come out early today, I'm afraid I won't be able to visit until another day."

Xueyao's face darkened slightly, she pursed her lips, and did not answer.

Bei Chunjin smiled awkwardly, looking for something to say, "I see your attire, you shouldn't be so down."

"Master, what do you mean?" The boy blinked his big eyes with a puzzled look on his face, "Are we downcast?"

"Uh..., this, I'm not..." For the first time, Bei Chunjin felt that she was so stupid and lost her sense of proportion in front of a woman. It was really embarrassing, "I don't think you should live in such a simple Place, eh, no, I mean, Miss Xueyao should live in a better place." Finally, she made her meaning clear, Bei Chunjin let out a long breath, looked at the siblings who were looking at each other, and suddenly felt As an outsider, I seem to have made a slip of the tongue...

"Hehe, where does the National Teacher think I should live? It's not easy to have a tile to cover us in this turbulent war, so we don't ask for anything." Suddenly felt in a trance, forgot to put the scooped up vegetable porridge into his mouth, just stared straight at the man's beautiful face, lost in thought...

"Ahem!" The young man beside him coughed fiercely, Bei Chunjin was taken aback, and lowered her head in embarrassment, her face flushed with shame.

"Well, national teacher, my sister is not married yet, don't look at me like that, it's not good." The young man fanned the flames.

"Xiaotian." Xueyao cast a reproachful look at him, and picked up a steamed bun for Bei Chunjin, "Don't just eat porridge, my lord, this steamed stuffed bun was brought by the aunt next door, it's delicious."

"Okay, thank you." Bei Chunjin hurriedly took it, took a bite, and it was delicious!So, a big bun the size of a fist was stuffed into his mouth by three mouthfuls...

"Master Guoshi, please slow down, it's not enough for Xiaotian to heat up, there are still a lot." Xueyao frowned slightly when she saw him wolfing down, why did this person's memory change, and her whole temperament also changed What?

Bei Chunjin felt that he had failed too much today. Not only was he abrupt and rude, but he was also so impetuous. How could he look aristocratic... He sighed secretly, and he took a peek at the man opposite him who was holding a steamed stuffed bun. Eating mouthfuls carefully, her movements are elegant and quiet, which is definitely not what a woman from a small family would do.Look at the guy next to her named 'Xiao Tian', although he is a little anxious to eat, but he is very steady.He was secretly startled, these two people should have a lot of background...

"Miss Xueyao said just now that she escaped from a disaster? I wonder where you lived?"

Xueyao put down the steamed stuffed bun, wiped the corners of her mouth gently with a handkerchief, and said with a smile: "We live in Pepa City, my father opened a jade shop, the business is pretty good, but we didn't expect the war to break out, we wanted to defect to Yancheng It's just..." She shook her head slightly, and stopped talking.

Bei Chunjin was taken aback for a moment, seeing her crying, her heart ached, "I don't know, is there anything I can do to help?"

"Master Guoshi will really help us?" Xue Yao's moist eyes blinked lightly, the sun poured down on her long eyelashes, scratching Bei Chunjin's heart like a cat's paw.

"Miss Xueyao, but it's okay to say."

"Lend us some money?"

Bei Chunjin was taken aback, nodded for a while and said: "I came out in a hurry today, and I didn't bring much silver. I don't know how much Miss Xueyao needs?"

"Not much, 50 taels is enough. Xiaotian and I want to buy this place and live there permanently."

"Permanent residence?" Bei Chunjin frowned, a little puzzled, "Aren't you going back?"

"Where are you going back? Pepa?" Xueyao smiled wryly, "I won't go back. After my parents come over, we will go to Yancheng."

"Didn't your parents go with you?" Bei Chunjin looked at her suddenly pale face, and couldn't help but regret asking this question.

Xiaotian coughed lightly, pulled La Xueyao, and said with a smile: "Originally, the whole family went together, but they got separated, and now it's just the two of us, so I plan to take this place down and wait for them."

"That's it." Bei Chunjin took out a purse from her bosom, looked at it, and found that there were only a dozen taels of scattered silver, and said a little embarrassedly: "You take these and use them first, and I will go back and get them before I give them to you."

"Thank you, Master Guoshi, for your kindness. Xueyao has nothing to repay. This jade pendant should be worth some silver taels. Let it be our thank you gift. I hope Master Guoshi won't dislike you." Xueyao said, from her arms He took out a jade pendant and handed it to Bei Chunjin.

Bei Chunjin didn't want to accept it at first, but when she saw the jade pendant, she felt inexplicably familiar, so she took it subconsciously, and looked down, it was actually carved from high-quality Zhenchen ancient jadeite, and it was carved out of the hollowed-out dragon ring. Carving a half-blooming epiphyllum, the workmanship is exquisite, it can be called the best, it is definitely not something that can be bought for a few dozen taels of silver, but he seems to have seen this thing before, but he can't remember what he saw there. .He frowned in boredom, looked at the jade pendant and sighed softly, "Miss Xueyao, this jade pendant is too expensive, I can't accept it."

"However, I don't have any other valuables on me. If the national teacher doesn't want it, how can I have the nerve to accept your money?"

"Is it necessary to distinguish so clearly between friends?" Bei Chunjin smiled, and put the jade pendant back into her hand, "Although I don't know jade, this pendant is not ordinary at a glance, Miss Xueyao Keep it."

Xueyao's face darkened, biting the corner of her mouth slightly, and nodded.

Seeing her gloomy expression, Bei Chunjin hurriedly said: "By the way, where did Miss Xueyao get separated from Lingtang? Maybe I can help you find it."

"Ah?" Xueyao froze for a moment, then smiled miserably, "No need, wait for Xiaotian to recover in two days, let's go find it by ourselves."

"Xiao Tian is sick?" Bei Chunjin looked at the person drinking porridge, saw that his complexion was normal, and he didn't seem sick, so he said, "I know some medical skills, or can I help you?"

"Okay." Xiaotian said, stretching out his wrist, "It's nothing serious, my sister is so careful. Follow me, and I can go to them today."

Bei Chunjin checked his pulse carefully, and couldn't help but be amazed, and the way he looked at the siblings also changed a few times.

Xueyao gently put down her chopsticks, and said sadly: "My lord, what happened to my younger brother? I always feel that he is not as agile as before."

"It's not a big deal. When and where did you get separated?" Bei Chunjin withdrew her hand and looked at her quietly, trying to find some pretense from those watery eyes, but she couldn't help praying secretly in her heart, hoping that the two of them would be separated. People are not the masterpieces of Hongguo...

"On the day of 29." Xueyao said, the circles of her eyes turned red, her long eyelashes couldn't bear the sudden burst of tears, she trembled slightly, and the tears fell down one by one.

Bei Chunjin's heart tightened, and she hurriedly said: "Miss Xueyao, don't worry, I will cure Xiaotian's illness, and it will be fine. Tell me slowly, what's going on?"

Xueyao bit the corner of her mouth, wiped her tears, and said after a long while: "That day when the Hong Army raided Luoxia Town, my parents and I took advantage of the chaos and ran out, but got lost in Lianyun Valley, and didn't go out until dark. Then..., then..."

Xiaotian sat down beside Xueyao, comforted her gently, and said: "We met a pack of wolves and were dispersed. In fact, you should also be able to see that we are not real siblings. I am the son of the nursing home, a servant of the young lady's family. I happened to be by the young lady's side at the time, so I dragged her away, and luckily, I escaped, but the old lady and the others just..."

Bei Chunjin frowned, thinking of falling into the land of the Hongyue Kingdom, she slammed her fist on the table, "Hmph, the Hongyue Kingdom has bullied me too much. Sooner or later, I will demand their blood to pay for it!"

Xueyao trembled all over, looking at him in horror.Bei Chunjin quickly retreated, eased the atmosphere, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry for scaring Miss Xueyao, I'm just too angry."

Xue Yao shook her head slightly, "I heard that the reason why Hongguo sent troops was because we captured their emperor?"

"Not necessarily. Hong Yuxun entered our country as a hostage, but he has been rescued now, and he should have returned to Hongguo. They are just making use of it!" Light.

Xueyao was slightly stunned, and leaned her head on Xiaotian's shoulder without any trace.Xiaotian gently wiped her crying face with a handkerchief, and said with a smile: "It's funny to say, when I came here, I also heard a saying that the king robbed King Hong's queen, I don't know if it is True or false."

"What? It's just nonsense. Your Majesty is an upright man, how could he do such a thing?!" Bei Chunjin waved his hands irritably, and didn't want to hear any more. For some reason, his head hurt like it was about to split open. Yes, some scenes that he had never seen before poured out crazily. He got a bowl of clear water and poured it down, but he still couldn't stop the pain that was about to explode.

Seeing his sudden pale face, Xueyao was shocked, and ran to his side in a panic, inserted her cold fingers into his hair, gently massaged him, and said with concern: "Don't think so much, take a good rest." .”

Bei Chunjin smelled the faint fragrance of orchid on her body, and her heart gradually settled down. Although her head still hurt a little, she really felt much better. "Xueyao, has Xiaotian been to Lianyun Valley again?" He leaned back slightly on her body, although he knew in his heart that he couldn't be so rude, but he couldn't control his body, as if that was his real destination.

"Well, Xiaotian knows some kung fu. He went there on the second day of junior high school, trying to find my parents, but... I couldn't find them..." Xueyao said, looking at him worriedly, "What happened to you just now, scared me."

"I don't know, I often have headaches recently." Bei Chunjin said, although she didn't want to, she reached out to stop her, "Look at me, I have delayed your meal. I'm fine, you should eat quickly, you should eat later It's cold. Xiaotian must have been injured by the poisonous insects I put in Lianyun Valley, I'll go back and get some medicine, you guys take it first, I'll be back in a while."

"Huh? This, is it urgent? Have you finished eating?"

"During this poison for a long time is not good for your health. I'm already full. Wait for me. I'll be back soon." Bei Chunjin said, got up and walked out.Xueyao and Xiaotian looked at each other, and hurriedly got up to see them off.The morning sun relentlessly warmed this small city in turmoil. Bei Chunjin looked back at the woman standing in the morning light, and her heart softened into spring water. It seemed that running around for her was what she wanted to do the most...
