little wife

Chapter 110

In the blink of an eye, it is another year's Lantern Festival. The war has just ended, and the peaceful and peaceful days in the past are beckoning to people. The people in Luping City are so excited that this Lantern Festival is no less lively than previous years. .

Jing Yun came back early in the afternoon. Last year's Lantern Festival, his and Ning Luo's trip to watch lanterns was completely destroyed by the Xirong people and Qin Yihan. This year, he must not miss it again.

The weather was cold, and there were a few snowflakes in the evening. Ning Luo was wearing a white mink coat and a warm mink hat, only showing a small face the size of a palm. The snowflakes fell on the white mink. On the skin, it is crystal clear, and it falls from the tip of the hair with a light shake, which is very interesting.

Same as last year, Jing Yun carved a lotus out of ice with his own hands, and made two plum blossom ice lanterns separately. The candles flickered in and out of the exquisite ice lanterns, with a bit of lingering water vapor, like the lotus seat of a fairy .

Xiao Shu'er was still too young to stand the cold outside, so she stayed at home with her nanny, and the two of them had this rare leisure time, and took a carriage to Xiangquan Lake, the busiest place in the city at this time.

Walking along the street paved with bluestone bricks, there are bustling crowds, there are vendors selling lanterns beside them, the sound of children playing is everywhere, a peaceful and cheerful atmosphere; at the corner of the street, Zou Zelin and Yu Huiyao are waiting for them Zou Zelin, a literati, naturally didn't have the energy to carve ice lanterns, but he made a lantern with bamboo strips and paper early on. The lifelike flowers, birds, fish and insects on it were written by the first talented man in the capital. Jingshi, this is worth a thousand gold.

Today, Clover and Lvsong are waiting for her. Clover is young and lively. Looking at the lanterns in the hands of passers-by, she also feels itchy. She looks around from time to time, and finally stops in front of a foldable rabbit lantern.

"Little girl, please like it," the guy next to him greeted enthusiastically. This lamp will be put in the warehouse for a year if it can't be sold today. Couldn't be more suitable for this pretty little girl."

There was originally a custom of meeting men and women during the Shangyuan Festival, and with the openness of the northwest folk customs, there were many pairs of men and women on the street tonight, and Jing Le also followed behind his master, who happened to be side by side with Yotsuba and the others, and was caught The buddy pulled it over and sent it to make a pile.

Everyone turned their heads, Clover blushed instantly, and just about to refute, Jing Le strode forward, took out a copper coin from his pocket and handed it to the waiter.

Everyone looked at him and smiled, and Jing Le was also a little embarrassed, and looked at the empty-handed Lusong next to him to cover up: "Girl Lusong, whichever one do you like, I will buy one for you too."

Lv Song covered her mouth and laughed happily: "Then I am blessed by Clover."

Clover rushed forward to cover her mouth: "Sister Lvsong, you are talking nonsense, see if I don't tickle you."

Where is Lu Song her opponent, she ran away in a hurry: "Oh, my little chivalrous woman, you can't just bully me just because you have someone behind you to protect you, madam, you should make the decision for me."

Ning Luo smiled and said, "Yes, I have to make the decision for you, and marry each of you."

This side was full of smiles, but there was a burst of exclamation from the other side. Everyone couldn't help but looked over. Jing Yun's eyes were good, and he saw a familiar figure at a glance. Why is Jiang Duo here?Isn't this intentional to spoil the mood of this Shangyuan Festival?

Ning Luo glanced at him sideways, and said with a sneer, "Master Hou, your peach blossoms have arrived."

Jing Yun said with a sullen face: "Hasn't she already returned to Mirong? Before she went, she promised me that she would not come to harass you again. She already has someone else she likes."

Ning Luo was a little startled: "You changed your mind so quickly? Is there anyone in this world who can compare to you, Lord Hou?"

Jing Yun loves to hear these words. It seems that in his wife's heart, he is an indomitable and unique good man. Thinking about it this way, even the uninvited Jiang Duo in the distance is a bit pleasing to the eye.

Jiang Duo looked very unhappy, and lost his temper: "I don't want these broken lanterns now, I'm going to find the governor!"

There were a few badly-fallen lanterns rolling on the ground, presumably she, the princess, kicked all of them on the ground when she was upset, and the boss wanted to cry but had no tears.

It was Li Chenglin who was following her, trembling with anger: "Why are you unreasonable? Today is the Lantern Festival, who will accompany you to wander around here? If you do this again, don't blame me for being rude."

"You Han people are stingy," Jiang Duo raised his chin contemptuously, "Why don't you send me a lantern? Is it because you are all supervising and not paying you?"

"Did the lanterns be given away casually?" Li Chenglin's handsome face was full of anger. He was taking a rest today, and went drinking with some friends in the army, but a subordinate came to report that the Princess Mi Rong had gone to the barracks to look around. , he was afraid that she would disturb the governor again, so he had to follow her to find a chance to take her back. At first, the woman smiled when she saw him, but then she got angry for no reason, "You are not my favorite!" Girl, not my wife, why should I send you off?"

Jiang Duo rolled her eyes and sneered, "Aren't I the woman you like? Then why do you follow me every step of the way?"

Li Chenglin was speechless, he couldn't tell the truth anymore, it was the governor who told him to take good care of this woman.He had an inexplicable headache, even if he could lead the Yunjia army to come and go freely among the enemy troops, he still couldn't deal with this unruly woman, if only he could knock her unconscious and send her back to the post.

The onlookers were a little bit upset: "Since you are chasing after me all day, why don't you even give me a lantern?"

"Yeah, if you don't mean it, don't be merciful, and don't delay other girls."

"This girl is so beautiful, it's my brother's good fortune to see you, why are you pushing back and forth," someone even booed, "Girl, if he doesn't send you, I'll give you one. Which lantern do you like?"

Both of them were wearing casual clothes today, and no one could recognize them in the dark night. One was the arrogant Princess Mi Rong, and the other was the commander of the Yunjia Army who was well-known in the northwest.

Seeing more and more people watching the excitement, he had no choice but to compromise, and took out the broken silver from his pocket: "I bought it, why don't I give it to you if I buy it all?"

Jiang Duo became a little happier now, and squatted on the ground to pick out two relatively complete lanterns, and motioned for Li Chenglin to come over and light the candles, one in each hand, and walked forward happily.

Before he had walked a few steps, he bumped into Jing Yun and his party head-on.

Jiang Duo was a little surprised, and happily stepped forward to say hello: "Captain, what a coincidence, madam, you are here too."

Jing Yun nodded coldly, but Ning Luo smiled at her and nodded in greeting: "Does Miss Jiang also like lanterns?"

Under the dim light, Jiang Duo suddenly felt a little shy. She took two steps towards Ning Luo, pushed Jing Yun aside, put the two lanterns together in her right hand, grabbed Ning Luo's arm and walked forward Go, while whispering very affectionately: "Madam, I have something to ask you..."

Jing Yun was stunned, looking at this posture, does Jiang Duo have another favorite person... is it his wife?This is too unbelievable!
Li Chenglin was extremely guilty, and hurried to Jing Yun to plead guilty: "The governor, it's all the negligence of the last general, what should I do now? This woman's skill is not bad, and she can perform twenty or thirty moves under my hands. If it wasn't for a sneak attack It's not easy to get dizzy..."

Jing Yun thought for a moment, then followed: "Follow first, let's see what tricks she plays."

While the group was talking, they arrived at the bank of Xiangquan Lake. The lake had already frozen over. The lakeside was dotted with stars. There were lanterns hung by shops to attract customers, and there were lovers hanging on trees to pray. Blossoming ice flowers, glittering and translucent, adorn the entire Xiangquan Lake like a fairy palace.

Ning Luo beckoned Li Chenglin to come over, and stuffed one of Jiang Duo's lanterns into his hand: "General Li, I'm sorry to bother you, Miss Jiang doesn't understand Da Chen's customs, so you should spend more time with her."

Li Chenglin shuddered, did Jiang Duo say something nonsense to his wife again?
"Yes, ma'am," he responded with a bow, urging Jiang Duo stiffly, "Go, I'll accompany you to have a look over there."

Ning Luo looked at the backs of the two of them, pursed her lips and suppressed a smile, Jing Yun finally came to his senses, hugged her from behind, and asked in a low voice, "You're smiling like a fox, what the hell are you thinking?" ?”

"Look at the two of them, they seem to be a good match." Ning Luo leaned on his chest and said.

"Are you in love with the job of matchmaking?" Jing Yun teased.

"It's not you," Ning Luo said angrily, "The peach blossom debts caused, who asked me to be your wife, I will always block it for you."

Jing Yun said with a smile: "Thank you Madam, but, with such a beautiful day, can you stop mentioning those unsightly things?"

Ning Luo looked around, and sure enough, Yu Huiyao and Zou Zelin had disappeared, and even her little maid stayed far away, and Jing Le and Yotsuba gathered together to whisper something.

The ice lamp in my hand was already much lighter, and the candle was more than half burned. The ice water inside slowly seeped through the small hole, and the middle of the ice lamp was melted into a round hole, and the thin ice wall shone through. bright.

The two put the ice lantern together and placed it on the frozen lake. Ning Luo clasped his palms together and murmured something.

"What wish did you make?" Jing Yun whispered in her ear.

"I won't tell you." Ning Luo smiled playfully.

Jing Yun stared at her, and stroked the snowflakes scattered on her hair: "You can guess without telling me."

What else can I wish for?For Ning Luo and him, all the glory and wealth are just a fleeting cloud, and there is nothing else to desire in this life, but to hold the hand of the son and grow old together.

When we returned to the Dudu Mansion, it was almost Zhengzheng, and everyone dispersed. Starting tomorrow, even if this year is officially over, there are still countless things to deal with.Jing Yun and Ning Luo finished washing and were about to go to bed when they suddenly heard a rush of footsteps outside the door.

"Captain, there is an imperial decree."

Jing Yun was stunned for a moment, it was so late, what was the urgent purpose?Signaling Ning Luo beside him to be calm, he put on his coat and walked out the door.

Ning Luo sat on the bed restlessly, hugging her knees and guessing what the urgent matter was.

After a while, Jing Yun came back with a serious face and a deep voice: "Luo'er, the prince... is dead..."

Ning Luo's heart suddenly tightened, she stared blankly at him speechless.

"Your Majesty ordered me to sort out the military affairs in Changzhou, hand over the rest of the miscellaneous peace talks to Marquis Xinyi, and return to Beijing immediately."
