sick princess

On this day, like a pair of the most ordinary lovers, the two went to eat the ravioli that was said to be the best and most plentiful in this small border town, and went to visit the most bustling street in the city.

The alleys in the border towns are naturally far less prosperous than the capital city, but to Lan Chengyu and Baoluo, they are not interesting.

When they were in the capital, they always had to keep their identities in mind, and they had to think carefully about every word and deed. How could it compare to being so relaxed now?

Baoluo glanced at Lan Chengyu who was walking beside her, a spring-like smile bloomed on her lips, and with the cover of her wide cuffs, she held Lan Chengyu's hand.There were thin calluses in Lan Chengyu's big dry hands, which made people feel very warm and at ease when touched.

With Lan Chengyu by his side, even if it was just doing a simple thing, Baoluo would feel very happy, as sweet as drinking honey.Baoluo never asked for anything grandiose, but only hoped that the countless years in the future could be like this moment, holding Lan Chengyu's hand, and walking through it in a smooth way.

Once upon a time, even such a simple life was a luxury for Baoluo.Although now, this kind of life is close at hand, she will not cherish it because of it.

Lan Chengyu noticed that Baoluo was constantly leaning towards him, so he couldn't help helping her hand: "Why, I can't walk anymore? Do you want me to carry you?"

"Don't make it seem like I'm weak!" Under Lan Chengyu's half-smile gaze, Baoluo said, "Even if I was weak before, that's a thing of the past, and now I'm very strong. You have strength in your body, so you don’t need others to carry it!”

Lan Chengyu smiled and said: "Okay, don't look for me if your feet are sore later, a lady who is not delicate at all."

He intentionally added an accent to the last sentence, which won him a light thump, Baoluo bit her lower lip and said: "I hate you, let me do something."

Lan Chengyu blinked innocently: "My lady's words are wrong. Since when has my husband not let you go? If my husband won't let you, I'm afraid you've already been rendered speechless by my husband."

Now, this kind of small bickering can be regarded as one of the passions between Baoluo and Lan Chengyu.The two talk back and forth, but they won't really get angry.

When the people around saw this, they couldn't help sighing: "Your Majesty and Madam have such a good relationship."

Baoluo and Lan Chengyu haven't realized it yet, they are really gluey in the eyes of others.

"Selling candied haws! Fresh and delicious candied haws! One penny for one string, two pennies for three strings!"

In the alley, the vendors are always busy.With their yelling, the alley became more lively and lively.

Baoluo made a face at Lan Chengyu, showing a bit of naughtiness: "Do you want to try these folk foods? There are no old masters who control the world here, let's experience the fun of ordinary people today Bar!"

Lan Chengyu didn't pay much attention to the matter of eating, so he nodded when he saw Baoluo's excited expression.

Not long after, Baoluo and Lan Chengyu held all kinds of food in their hands.

Baoluo didn't care so much, and immediately started to eat happily, until the cheeks on both sides swelled up.Lan Chengyu looked at Baoluo, and then at the candied haws in his hand, feeling troubled.He is a big old man, and he still eats these, and it doesn't look very good to be seen by others.

Seeing Lan Chengyu's hesitant look, Baoluo burst out laughing, without saying a word, passed the candied haws in his hand to Lan Chengyu, Lan Chengyu hesitated to bite, unexpectedly a small piece of candy Being bitten to pieces, he didn't hold it in his mouth for a moment, but it rolled down from his mouth.

Baoluo freed up a hand and wiped Lan Chengyu's chin where the sugar scum rolled over. Seeing Lan Chengyu looking at him helplessly, he laughed even harder.How did she never find out before that her son-in-law is so cute!

How could Lan Chengyu not know that Baoluo was making fun of him?At that moment, he glanced at Baoluo helplessly, and chewed the candied haws in his mouth as if venting his anger. After a while, the sugar wrapped around the fruit was enough to melt in his mouth, so Lan Chengyu bit down without losing his teeth. .

Seeing Lan Chengyu baring his teeth, Baoluo smiled more and more heartily.

Lan Chengyu was holding candied haws in his hand, so he didn't have time to bother Baoluo for the time being, but he remembered everything for Baoluo.How did this little girl bully him, in the future he will definitely get it back!As for where to get it back... that's self-evident.

After eating the candied haws, Baoluo went to buy some meat skewers, while Lan Chengyu was looking elsewhere, Baoluo quickly wiped the meat skewers on Lan Chengyu's face, wanting to give Lan Chengyu a bite son.But who knew, Lan Chengyu seemed to have eyes on the back of his head, and when Baoluo reached out his hand, he turned around and grabbed the skewer of meat.

Facing that serious face, Baoluo felt a little guilty for no reason.I always engage in sneak attacks like this... It seems... quite unkind?

Unexpectedly, after Lan Chengyu finished eating that piece of meat, he continued to wait for the feeding: "It tastes good, let's have another bite."

That upright look made Baoluo want to slap him!

Seeing that Baoluo didn't respond, Lan Chengyu didn't know what it means to observe words and feelings, and what it means to accept when you see something good, and then said: "My lady, the meat you feed is delicious. Why don't I feel so delicious when I eat it by myself?"

Where did Baoluo want to feed him, she clearly wanted to tease him.Now that she can't play tricks, Lan Chengyu is still climbing up the pole, so Baoluo is naturally upset. She sees more and more people around them noticing what they are doing here, and she regrets it more and more. The stick was stuffed sideways to Lan Chengyu's mouth, and he whispered: "Shut up, you can't stop your mouth if you have something to eat."

Lan Chengyu ate to his heart's content, but he said: "Miss fed me, I naturally have to behave well, so that she can know that I appreciate her very much, why doesn't she let me say it now?"

"If you really appreciate my love, finish your meal and leave."

Lan Chengyu raised his eyebrows: "My feelings are so shameful in my wife's heart?"

……

Under Baoluo's urging, Lan Chengyu quickly killed the snacks in his hands, and then the two went to watch people make lanterns together.

Not long after the war with the Beirong people, many people came here to buy lanterns and put them in the river for the safety of their families.

"At the beginning, the first family in my family consisted of more than a dozen people, but since the Beirong people invaded the border, my eldest sister was captured, my younger brother disappeared, my father was killed by the Beirong people, and my mother also left because of anger... …Now, there are only half of the family left, which is really a crime.” Speaking of the Beirong people, the people at the border mostly hate: “Fortunately, the emperor sent General Xiaolan, otherwise, we don’t know what will happen here. Woolen cloth."

"Who says it's not. My daughter-in-law was born well. She was favored by those bastards in Beirong back then. If it weren't for General Xiaolan, my daughter-in-law would not be able to keep it. The emperor must know that we are living a hard life, so he sent Xiaolan General Lan came to save us, and today I will take advantage of this opportunity to pray for Little General Lan."

"General Xiaolan and His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess are not going well this year. They are both good people. I only hope that they will be able to do well in the future. Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess is so honorable, but she cares about us so much. She has no pretensions. She deserves to be Xiaolan. General's wife."

"yes……"

"The Beirong people lost their troops and lost their generals. I heard that they are still wicked now."

"Let him come. When he had an army of [-], he wouldn't be able to defeat us. I want to see how he will fight me, Daxia, with only so few people left!"

……

Hearing about these border affairs in Beijing is quite different from my own experience when I come to the border.

At least Baoluo felt that, as the eldest princess of Daxia, she had done too little for the people of Daxia.The people are so easily satisfied, and she is so grateful for her little favors to them, which makes her a little ashamed. In the future, she needs to do more things for the people within her capacity.

But... Baoluo took a look at Lan Chengyu, and the people in the border customs respected Lan Chengyu, which made her feel honored.Her son-in-law is a hero who defends the country.

Lan Chengyu saw that Baoluo had been staring at the person selling the lantern, and saw that the lantern was tied delicately, so he guessed that Baoluo wanted it, so he went up to buy it. Who knew, when the person who tied the lantern looked up, Recognizing him, I was so excited that I refused to ask for his money.

In that person's words, Lan Chengyu drove away the Beirong people for them, and once again protected them. He is their great benefactor, and he is also very happy to do something for Lan Chengyu.Hearing what he said, Lan Chengyu didn't insist anymore, took the most delicate lantern handed to him by the person who tied the lantern, took Baoluo's hand, and came to the river.

The wind in the evening brings a slight coolness, blowing away the impetuousness and hustle and bustle of the day.

Baoluo and Lan Chengyu stood by the sparkling water, their minds were extremely clear.

"I only hope that in the future, every day will be as peaceful as today."

After Baoluo finished speaking, she bent down and gently pushed the lantern into the river.

Lan Chengyu held her hand tightly, and said firmly: "Yes, the wish you made today will definitely come true in the future, I assure you."

In the end, Baoluo and Lan Chengyu boarded the tower of the border city. Looking at the dust billowing outside the city, they felt that the whole field of vision had become vast.Personal joys and sorrows, in front of this scene, seem to be nothing.

"Look, this is the border line we have been guarding. To the west of the border line, there are Beirong people, Yi people, Da Yue country, and many, many small border countries. Some small countries are beautiful and rich, and they have nothing to do with the world. There are also countries that are greedy like the countries of the barbarians..." Lan Chengyu explained to Baoluo in detail.

Baoluo stared and said: "This is the place you have been guarding?"

"No, it's not me." Lan Chengyu shook his head and corrected Baoluo: "It's the place we have been guarding. Although you have never been to the front line, you have used your own method to support the border guards and guard the country."

A sense of responsibility and mission arises spontaneously from the bottom of Baoluo's heart.

In the past, it was not that she didn't know the existence of such a city, but at that time, Border Town was just a code name to her, so it was naturally impossible for her to directly hit her heart like now.

But at this time, looking at such a scene, even a person like Baoluo who is used to forbearance felt that there was a passion in his heart that was about to be spilled, but before she could open her mouth, Lan Chengyu had already spoken her heart out one step at a time mouthed.

"I only hope that there will be no more wars in the border towns in the next ten years or even decades, and that my Great Xia can exchange goods and needs with those rich countries."

"It will, I believe you and Brother Huang can do it."
