Chapter 184

Xi Lan intentionally stopped, knowing that this person had something to say, so she walked closer.

Lu He watched her approach and asked, "Where have I seen you?"

Obviously, in his memory, he has no impression of the person who exposed him.

But when he saw those bright eyes, he was sure that he must have seen them.

The depth of that kind of memory came from nowhere, but it made him shocked and unforgettable.

Xi Lan stopped in front of him, kneeling on the ground because of being controlled by the royal guards, looking down at him from above.

Facing such a murderer who killed countless people without even blinking an eye, Xi Lan didn't intend to make him feel better.

"I have indeed met you." She said softly: "If it happens again, I will definitely send him on the road without hesitation!"

She was full of hatred. Before the mortal curse, this villain only killed Sun Chao alone, but after the mortal curse, he killed several times more people!
After hearing her words, Lu He was shocked, and looked up at her in disbelief.

"You...you...you are her..."

"Take him down and take care of him." Li Huai came up and gave his life again.

Qin Han immediately escorted this person away!
It was midnight, and everyone in the barracks drank the anti-yin poison she prepared.The murderer was finally found, but Xi Lan couldn't be happy.

After Li Huai was busy with other things in the army, he came out of the tent, but Xi Lan was not there.

"Where's Xiaolong?" His expression changed slightly, Yan Ting hurried over to answer: "Xiaolong is over there."

Feeling at ease, he followed the direction pointed by Yan Ting and came to the watchtower.

From a distance, she could see a person sitting on it with her legs hanging in the air, but the sentry tower was several feet high, and her face could not be seen clearly.

I only felt that under the night sky, the figure in armor was heavy and sad.

Regardless of his identity, he climbed up the difficult wooden ladder.

"What are you looking at here?" He walked to her side, raised the corner of his robe, and sat down slowly.

Xi Lan didn't close her gaze. She looked into the distance and replied softly, "So it's so beautiful when you look inside from the outside of the city!"

Li Huai looked along her line of sight, under the dark and shining night, dim night city lights appeared, and there was Jinling, his hometown.

The prosperity and prosperity of Jinling is famous in the Three Kingdoms, but its most shining place is not the magnificent imperial city, but the bustling market.He withdrew his gaze and looked at Xi Lan.

"You've been out for so long, do you feel homesick?" His voice was soft and straight to the heart.

She saw so many people dead at once in the barracks, and the piling up of corpses, she thought a lot about it.

If daddy was there, they might put a sky lantern for every undead under the night sky after they were saved.

Sky lanterns can light their way, which is the last thing the living do for the dead!

She was really homesick, Tianling Town was too far away, she couldn't see it, so she could only climb up to a high place, look at the hometown of her loved one, and place her thoughts on it.

"Well, I'm homesick!" She nodded and admitted.

Li Huai sat closer to her and said, "Can you tell me the story of your hometown?"

She turned her head, looked at the man sitting beside her, smiled slightly, and then remembered that she had never told him about her hometown.

"Our Long family is on Yunxia Mountain behind Tianling Town. There is a house halfway up the mountain. There is a black plaque on the gate with the words "Longmen Villa" written on it. That is my home, and my mother gave birth there. It’s me. The north is cold, but Tianling Town is like spring all the year round. When my grandfather was still alive, he once told me that there is a magical Tianxuan in Tianling Town, so it’s full of peach blossoms.” She said After finishing speaking, he reminded him: "It is difficult for people who have never been to Tianling Town to find it, even with a map, but if you follow the peach blossom tree to find it, you will be able to enter Tianling Town!"

Li Huai took her hand lightly: "If I go, I will definitely be with you."

At that time, there is no need to look for peach blossoms, he just needs to follow her closely.

Xi Lan's eyes flickered, and she hurriedly asked, "Will you go to Tianling Town with me? When?"

He smiled slightly and replied: "Idiot, you are the princess of this king. Although you are the daughter of General Ji in name, this king knows who you are, and this king also wants to see your hometown and what it looks like." , but not now, when the business in the capital is over, we can arrange this long trip!"

She knew in her heart that Li Huai, as a lord, was constantly having trivial matters, and she would have to wait until that day, but she was still very happy.

"Li Huai, it's a deal!"

"En." After he agreed, he stood up and pulled her up, and said, "This king will take you to a place."

"where?"

"You will know when you come!"

She got up obediently and followed him to climb down from the sentry tower.

When they came outside the barracks, the towers in the distance stood dimly, but the place they were in was a wilderness surrounded by stars.

"That's..." She saw a lot of Wangfu guards in front of her. They were holding white sky lanterns made of oil paper in their hands, and several of them had already been released into the sky!
"I heard from an ancient book that you would put sky lanterns for the dead to illuminate the dark roads, so I ordered people to prepare sky lanterns. It took me a lot of work to find all these hundred lanterns in the middle of the night. Lamp." He finished with a smile, and led her into the palace guard.

Zhuang Zhimou handed them a sky lantern, and Li Huai handed it to her.

She was full of emotions in her heart, and there were many words, but they merged into a gratified smile.

They put those sky lanterns into the night sky one by one.It was the first time for Xi Lan to see so many lights rising into the sky together. The magnificent picture not only illuminated the dark path for the dead, but also brought hope to the survivors.

That night, they spent the night in the Anti-Fourth Army camp. Early the next morning, news came from Qin Han that Lu He had recruited!
The confession clearly stated that it was Queen Nalan who ordered him to enter the camp, and several Nalan's confidantes in the military department were related to this.

Holding this confession, Li Huai was naturally overjoyed. He strode into the tent and woke up Xi Lan who was still awake.

"Xi Lan, get up, look at this!"

She rubbed her sleepy eyes, got off the bed, took it with doubts, opened it for a closer look, and immediately became much more awake!
"With this confession, the empress has committed such a crime that both humans and gods hate, even if she is not sentenced to death, it will be difficult to secure the empress chair!"

As long as this powerful Nalan family is pulled down from the top, there will be less chance for her to do evil!

"Yeah!" After he agreed, he sat down, smoothed the messy hair beside her ear, and said, "The affairs in the military are temporarily over, you pack it up, and we go back home!"

It could be seen that he was really happy, Xi Lan knelt down to put on his military boots without saying a word.

Li Huai watched her putting on her shoes, and gently hugged her up. She hung up in the air and called out to him in surprise, "Li Huai, what are you doing? This is in the barracks?"

"How could this king not know that this is in the military camp?" He gently put her body back on the military couch, and then kissed her lips and neck.

Xi Lan wanted to dodge just now, but was gradually influenced by him, and put her arm around his neck and kissed him back.

The straight road is the mountains and rivers torrential rain falling, and the storm on the Yangtze River has not stopped for a long time!
……

When I returned to the palace, it was already high in the sun.

Li Huai's mount was at the front, and a group of majestic and majestic royal guards in blue armor passed by, naturally attracting countless glances.

Xi Lan rode in the procession, and when she reached the gate of Prince Xu's Mansion, she saw several carriages parked outside.

Soon, someone came out from the gate to welcome them. They were Li Rong, the king of Wen, and Li Wei, the king of Qu.

There was no appointment before, how could they come?Li Huai was puzzled, and quickly parked the horse outside the gate.

The servants who watched the horse hurried over to take the horse away, and Wen Wang and others over there greeted him and said, "Seventh brother, seventh brother, you are back!"

"Third Brother and Sixth Brother, how did you survive?"

The two laughed and said, "We're here, aren't we just here to join in the fun?"

"Join in the fun?" Li Huai was puzzled, seeing several artists behind the two of them.

These lords and grandsons of the Hou family are very busy, while other kings such as Wen, Qu, and Zhu spend their days drinking and chatting with these beauties who are famous all over the world.

"Well, I heard that a young general has come to your house, and his swordsmanship is very good. Today, I have an appointment with Wang Yang of the Yulin Army to compete in the East Racecourse. We will naturally follow to see!"

When Li Huai heard this, his expression changed a little.

"Third brother, who did you listen to?"

Qu Wang gracefully shook his folding fan on his chest and replied: "It doesn't matter who you listen to, the important thing is that my third brother and I came here early in the morning to wait!"

Li Huai hurriedly said: "I'm afraid someone misreported the news and let the third brother and sixth brother make this trip for nothing!"

For a day, the two of them, with doubts on their faces, heard the king said: "Impossible? The Imperial Forest Army rushed to the racecourse and waited outside the city today!"

King Qu also felt that this matter was absolutely true, and it must be because their seventh brother didn't want to make it public, so he wanted to get rid of them.

He immediately said sourly: "Seventh brother, seventh brother, are you meeting with us? Is there no one named Qiao Xiaolong in your house guard?"

Li Huaidun was embarrassed, and even his name was spread, how can he shirk now?

Wen Wang echoed and asked: "That's right, where is Qiao Xiaolong? As we all know, in this forbidden army, Habayashi Wei and Wang Fuwei have always kept their mouths to noses, and Habayashi Wei praised him as a man. The one named Qiao Xiaolong must have extraordinary abilities, Seventh Brother, if you hide such a precious person, you really have alienated your brother!"

After being lectured by these two people, Li Huai no longer knew how to answer.

He didn't want Xi Lan to wear the armor of the royal palace to make this name, but now that everyone knows about it, how should he answer?How can he answer?
At this time, a person strode out from the palace guard, she stopped respectfully in front of them, buried her head slightly, cupped her hands and said: "Subordinate Qiao Xiaolong, I have seen the two princes!"

The two of them were overjoyed, and they looked over at the same time, even more surprised.

They thought that Qiao Xiaolong had a majestic bear like Yan Ting, but it was the slightly thin, thin and dark little brother in front of them.

"What a hero!" King Qu sighed, clapping Xi Lan's shoulder with one hand.

Xi Lan's face changed slightly, she was so different from her appearance in women's clothing, the two of them naturally did not recognize her.

But Li Huai's eyes fell unnaturally on King Qu's hand on her shoulder.

Aware of this, she immediately took a step back modestly, and leaned over to answer: "Young Lord Qu is over-rewarded, but he had some misunderstandings with Habayashi Wei in the downtown area, and it's not as rumored, and his swordsmanship is second to none among the royal guards." , nothing!"

Wen Wang stepped forward and said: "Little brother, don't be humble. We all know that there are many masters in the Wangfu Guard, but you can enter the Wangfu Guard with your small body, which shows that you must be superior to ordinary people in other aspects!"

"Seventh brother, it's been a long time for us brothers to get together like this. You and Qi Huangdi take a leave of absence and go to Dongcheng Racecourse to watch the battle together?" King Qu said with a smile in front of Li Huai.

Li Huai had no choice but to agree because of his affection.

But they had to go back to the mansion first, King Wen and King Qu stayed in the front yard to enjoy the scenery and flowers, Xi Lan saw that Li Huai was striding ahead, and hurried to catch up and asked, "Are you angry?"

Li Huai stopped and squinted at her face that knew she was wrong.

"You also know that the king will be angry?"

Xi Lan smiled embarrassingly: "I never thought that this matter would reach Qu Wang and the others. I promise, I will never lose, and I will definitely save face for Wang Fuwei!"
