Retreat, Retreat, Retreat! - Chapter 63

After all, Xiao Changning took off Shen Xuan’s clothes, revealing his strong and strong upper body. The muscle lines showed a gentle arc under the light, which was the most familiar appearance she thought about.

Xiao Changning knelt and sat on the couch, pulling up Shen Xuan’s slender and strong arms to look around. There were indeed no big scars, except for a slight scratch on the elbow and forearm, and there was a shallow scratch on the waist and abdomen. The scar is about two inches long and not deep. The wound has healed on its own.

Xiao Changning finally breathed a sigh of relief, rubbing his fingertips on the shallow scar on his waist, and asked, “How did this happen?”

Being touched by her, Shen Xuan’s breathing was obviously heavier, and she said dumbly: “The Beidi people’s string-like concealed weapon is extremely sharp, invisible in the sun, but it can blow and break the hair.”

Hearing this, Xiao Changning had a fingertip. She could almost imagine the life-and-death crisis behind Shen Xuan’s understatement.

Xiao Changning looked up distressedly, and happened to crash into Shen Xuan’s bottomless eyes. She really likes Shen Xuan’s eyes. Outsiders saw his eyes only felt sharp and mad. When they looked at her, she was like lava rolling under the ice, and the warmth in her eyes seemed to overflow. .

She could feel Shen Xuan’s desire for something almost immediately.

Retreated in a panic, she said: “I’ll get you medicine. Although the wound is not deep, it is better to deal with it.”

However, Shen Xuan grabbed her hand and bullied her forward, and her other hand was wrapped around her waist and pressed tightly against her lower abdomen. He said: “No, it’s not a serious injury, it’s just that you have been fighting too much in the past few days, and you are only bathing and changing clothes for fear of the **** smell on your body.”

The figures of the two are closely connected, and the heat is pressed through the thin clothes, and Shen Xuan bit her ear and said: “I miss you, Changning.”

Shen Xuan’s aggressiveness was too strong, and a single sentence made her soften half of her body, awakening the lingering lingering engraved on bone and blood in the past. Xiao Changning still had some sense of reason, and he stretched out his hand to caress Shenxuan’s back, and said in a low voice, “No way, Shenxuan.”

Shen Xuan naturally knew that she was pregnant and could not have sex, so she rubbed her neck with the tip of her nose, and then she held her lips and muttered: “Help me.”

When the disappearance stopped, it was already two quarters of an hour before Shen Xuan finished scrubbing her, and then she opened the door to pass the meal.

Xiao Changning’s appetite is still not very good. If he eats too much, he becomes nauseated. He can only eat a little and more. The fire in the imperial dining room keeps preparing porridge and medicated food for her day and night.

The thickly boiled white jade fish soup with silky chicken medicated diet, plus a few plates of hot and cold side dishes and three fresh soup dumplings, is fragrant and fragrant. With Shenxuan, Xiao Changning didn’t dare to be lazy, and after drinking two full bowls, he said softly, “Shenxuan, I really can’t eat it anymore.”

Only then did Shen Xuan reach out her hand to wipe the porridge and rice on her lips, and put her leftover porridge and food into her mouth.

“Hey, don’t!” Xiao Changning stretched out his hand to stop him, and said distressedly, “Have you never used lunch? Let the imperial kitchen cook some new dishes, this is already leftover.”

Shen Xuan raised her eyebrows and smiled: “I like to eat your leftovers.”

The appearance of Shen Xuan’s smile was a little bad, which made Xiao Changning feel fresh. She saw Shen Xuan eating with the wind and wind. She was not vulgar and organized, but she swallowed very fast. She didn’t know how long she hadn’t eaten properly.

“How long will you stay in the palace?” Seeing Shen Xuan put the table and chopsticks, she took a close-fitting veil and wiped the corners of his lips.

Shen Xuan held her hand and said, “Shen Shi, go to the Temple of Nourishing Heart, and come back to accompany you for dinner.”

“What about after dinner?”

“Sleep with you.” Shen Xuan took up the robe that was on the side of the couch and put it on, buckled her wristband, and fastened her belt, returning to the majesty of the admiral of the East Factory. For a moment, he turned around and looked at Xiao Changning and said, “I will leave tomorrow morning.”

Xiao Changning sighed, and the unwillingness in his eyes was written on his face: “Farewell now, I can’t see each other for another ten and a half days.”

Shen Xuan leaned forward and kissed her, and said, “It’s coming soon.”

After all, he picked up his official hat and put it on, and the brim of the black gauze hat was pressed low on his long eyebrows, very handsome. Shen Xuan gave Xiao Changning a strong hug before she got up and left.

Shen Xuan went to the Hall of Nurturing Heart, Xiao Huan was already sitting in the hall waiting for him, wearing a dark uniform embroidered with golden dragons.

The two paid the courtesy of monarchs and ministers, and then Xiao Huan knocked on the chessboard and ordered Shenxuan to sit down opposite him.

The chessboard was criss-crossed, black and white, Xiao Huan clinging to a white child, frowned slightly, showing a bit of impatience as a young man, as if he was worried about what to do next. For a moment, he said with emotion: “The relationship between Admiral Shen and Sister A is really good. When entering the palace this time, he actually went to see Sister A first.”

Shen Xuan put one hand on the chess case, “The emperor already knows what should be known and what should not be known. The ministers only need to show up and walk through the scene. What’s the difference between coming early and late.”

“Under the world, only Admiral Shen dared to talk to me like this.” Xiao Huan propped his head with one hand, and said with his fingertips playing chess pieces. Outsiders explain?”

Shen Xuan raised her eyes to Xiao Huan, without speaking.

His eyes were unpredictable, Xiao Huan couldn’t guess it, and only warned him: “If your identity as a fake **** is revealed, you are deceiving you and you will not escape death.”

Shen Xuan’s mouth twitched lightly, and said: “You can also not deceive the monarch or go on.”

Xiao Huan hesitated: “What does Shen Qing mean?”

Shen Xuan adjusted her cuffs, her voice low, “The emperor summoned the ministers just to talk about personal matters?”

“Fine.” Xiao Huan gathered his thoughts and asked earnestly, “I heard that Dongchang snatched a meticulous work from Commander Wen’s hands. After all, what can I get from the interrogation?”

“Huo Wei collided with the enemy before he died, and Xiao Wanan also took refuge in the Beidi people.” Shen Xuan tapped the edge of the table lightly with her fingers, and her expression flatly revealed a fact that made Xiao Huan fearful. One, two, there are at least a hundred masters hidden in every corner of the capital…”

Shen Xuan paused, then raised a pair of sharp eyes, “Even by the emperor’s side.”

Xiao Huan was shocked, his eyes widened and said, “How is this possible? The gates of the capital city are closely investigated. It is impossible for so many foreign masters to enter the city without being discovered.”

“At the end of last year, the palace failed. Huo Tian led a few of his guards to flee in a hurry, while the vast majority of Jinyiwei stayed in the city to be dealt with. At that time, the emperor was kind, and only killed a few rioters and commanders. The surrender was incorporated into Wen Lingyin’s hands. When Wen Lingyin first arrived, he was not very familiar with Jin Yiwei’s people. Can the emperor guarantee that those who surrendered Jin Yiwei did not have a few treacherous eyeliners buried by Huo Yan?”

Shen Xi said the key point and sneered, “With Jin Yiwei as an internal response, and with Huo Jie and Xiao Wanan’s hand-in-hand with the Beijing master’s defense plan, it is easy for the Beidi people to sneak into it.”

Xiao Huan’s expression was a little ugly, and he clenched the chess piece in his hand and said, “Where is Xiao Wanan now?”

“Still investigating.” Shen Xuan asked without evasiveness, “Can the emperor regret it if we cut the grass and don’t get rid of the roots?”

Xiao Huan belatedly said, “If I am the kind of person who is willing to cut the grass and roots, I should kill you first, Shen Aiqing.”

Shen Xi laughed and pointed out: “Mediocre people make enemies, wise people make friends.”

Xiao Huan asked, “Is Shen Aiqing my friend?”

Shen Xuan asked calmly, “Dongchang has done several important things for the emperor in recent years. Does the emperor feel that these are enough to make friends?”

Xiao Huan was speechless for a while, before he was dissatisfied for a while and said: “The tree is a boat, and I have to call you brother-in-law if I don’t want to.”

The moon is surplus and the water is overflowing. No matter who it is, it is always bad to be too greedy. Shen Xuan is like this, why not Xiao Huan? It is better for the court to check and balance Jin Yiwei and Dongchang to contain each other. What’s more, Jin Yiwei’s Wen Lingyin is the confidant of the emperor, and if Shen Xuan wants to go against it, she has to peel off her skin.

Shen Xuan naturally knew the little abacus in Xiao Huan’s heart. It was like a thin layer of window paper between the monarchs and the ministers, but before the day was completely pierced, they maintained a delicate balance in internal and external troubles.

“I’m really not reconciled. Even the barbarians thousands of miles away dare to bully my young.” Xiao Huan raised his eyes to look at Shen Xuan, as if begging for an answer, “Could it be that we can only watch Bei Di. People, can we eat away our humorous ministers every inch?”

“The enemy is in the dark and I am bright, but it’s not completely impossible. Lead the snake out of the hole to catch the turtle in the urn.” Shen Xiu raised a hand and twisted a black stone, gently pressing it on the chessboard, Fang slowly said, “It’s just that the emperor needs a little bit. Cooperate.”

Xiao Huan was startled and asked, “How to cooperate?”

Shen Xuan raised his eyes, and a narrow line of sunlight hit his eyes horizontally, reflecting a sharp light.

He said: “My lord, let’s make a deal.”

Xiao Changning took a short walk in front of Xibi Palace, and after a short while, he saw Shen Xu turning out of the palace gate not far away.

She greeted her with a smile, and asked, “Have you talked with the emperor?”

Shen Xuan let out a ‘um’, and naturally took her hand and asked: “Are you tired?”

“Somewhat.” Xiao Changning said.

“I am carrying you.”

“No, no need!”

“hug you?”

“No need, really!”

Shen Xuan twisted her eyebrows, and then whispered in her ear: “You don’t have to worry about etiquette. With this supervisor, no one dares to discuss your right or wrong.”

With a warm heart, Xiao Changning said amused: “Please, Admiral Shen don’t use such an affectionate tone to say such arrogant words! Such words are usually said by the great officials in the history books.”

“This is a treacherous eunuch, didn’t Her Royal Highness the princess think that way at first?” Shen Xuan whispered through the old account, but her eyes were joyful.

Xiao Changning was embarrassed, thinking of the’Impermanence Book’ that Shen Xuan had appeared several times, and couldn’t help but ask: “Are you going to record all the things that my palace has offended you in the Impermanence Book, and always use it to look through it. The old accounts?”

Shen Xuan raised her eyebrows and smiled, and said, “Yes.”

Xiao Changning stopped suddenly, holding back for a while, Fang raised his hand to spread his palm, and hooked his five fingers with his palm facing up. “Bring the impermanence book.”

Shen Xuan shook her head, and said with a serious face: “It’s a secret, you can’t give it.”

“My palace ordered you to bring it…well!”

Shen Xuan still held her hand and simply leaned in and kissed her.

“Shen Yin, you are not obedient!”

It’s another kiss.

“Don’t… someone!”

Another kiss.

Xiao Changning didn’t speak anymore, but stared at him with a pair of moist and watery eyes, his lips were red as if they were dyed rouge.

Since Shen Xuan did not return to the East Factory tonight, Fang Wujing had to enter the palace with Lin Huan to exchange the latest information. Anyone who hadn’t entered the gate of Xibi Palace, saw Admiral Shen and Princess Changning uninhabited by the red wall outside the palace. Bian Qingqing, I, and I were so shocked that my chin was about to fall, and I felt a burst of sweetness on my face.

Fang Wujing covered Lin Huan’s eyes with one hand, and said, “Children can’t look at it, it’s pin-eyed!”

Lin Huan desperately grabbed the mirrorless hand below: “Why can’t I look at it.”

Fang Wujing changed his hand to cover his eyes, and Lin Huan took it off again. The two of you came and I fisted, the movement was so big that Xiao Changning was disturbed, thinking that the charming scene was only seen by two subordinates, and suddenly her cheeks flushed, she stared at Shen Xiu and turned her head. go.

Shen Xuan’s thumb lightly rubbed her lower lip, as if she was still feeling still, she turned and squinted towards Fang Wujing and Lin Huan.

The two who were fighting vigorously noticed a familiar murderous aura, and suddenly became stiff, and their movements seemed to freeze.

So a quarter of an hour later, Lin Huan and Fang Wujing knelt in the hall honestly, standing up and lowering their heads, as quiet as a chicken.

“According to the Governor’s order, change the original plan. Fanzi who visited unannounced in the city is on standby and cannot confront Bei Di Xizuo head-on.” Shen Xuan’s gaze swept across Xiao Changning, who was dyeing the thirteenth layer of color. Then he fell on the two subordinates, and said in a deep voice, “With an excellent bait, then you only need to ambush properly, please enter the urn.”

After arranging the proper matter, Shen Xuan raised her jaw and said majesticly: “Get down.”

Fang Wujing wiped his sweat in his heart, hurriedly said ‘Lead the Order’, and dragged Lin Huan all the way out of the hall.

“It’s all because you want to watch it, which made the factory supervisor angry.” Fang Wujing patted his clothes, and poked Lin Huan’s forehead with his orchid finger.

Lin Huan refused to accept: “Obviously you wanted to fight with me, and the factory supervisor was angry.”

“nonsense!”

“No nonsense!”

Fang Wujing got angry, rolled up his sleeves and said, “Would you like another fight?”

“Okay…” Lin Huan was stunned, carefully glanced at the Xibi Palace Hall, and said in a small voice, “Go out and fight.”

Fang Wujing was also afraid that Shen Xuan would hear it, and said in a voice: “Okay!”

The two of them walked out sneakily, not seeing a fifteen or sixteen-year-old palace lady who happened to enter the door at all.

With the two sounds of “Oh,” and “Oh,” Lin Huan and the little palace lady bumped into each other, smashing the brocade in the tray in her hand to the ground.

Each of them stepped back and stood firm.

The little palace lady patted her chest in shock, raised her eyes to see the two of them, her eyes rounded and said: “What are you doing frizzy? Beware of breaking the silk material that cuts the new clothes for Her Royal Highness Princess.”

As she said, she rolled up her sleeves, revealing a round jade arm, squatted down-picked up the cloth.

This little court lady has a silver face, crescent eyebrows, and a few light freckles on the tip of her nose. She looks playful and pungent. It is Wu Youfu’s niece, Azhu, who was newly transferred to Xiao Changning a few days ago, so Lin Huan and Fang Wu Jing didn’t recognize it, but felt that this little girl was courageous.

Lin Huan wrinkled her nose and seemed to perceive a scent that seemed like nothing.

It’s not like the fragrance of flowers, it’s more like the sweetness of food.

He followed the smell, and as soon as A Zhu picked up the silk cloth and got up, he saw Lin Huan approaching a white and lovely bun face, with the tip of her nose almost touching her face. She was so frightened that she took two steps and took the silk cloth. The crossbar warned in front of his chest: “What are you doing!”

“The smell on you…” Lin Huan sniffed and said sincerely, “It seems to be delicious.”

Ah Zhu opened his mouth wide, then blushed, and cursed: “Deng’s apprentice! Obscene!”

Seeing her reacting like this, Lin Huan said in a daze, “Why are you scolding?”

“Why swearing at others? I can look down on you if I didn’t hit you!” Azhu said angrily, “Tell you, my uncle is the chief of the White Tiger of the East Factory, you guys don’t want to belittle me!”

It was Wu Youfu’s niece, and Fang Wujing, who was not too busy, was panicked.

Wu Youfu, the fat man, don’t look at the appearance of Maitreya Buddha who usually smiles, but he has a lot of grudges. If he knows that his precious niece has been’flimsy’ by the little fool like Lin Huan, he must put two or two laxatives in their meals. .

Then he quickly explained: “Sister Azhu don’t want to be angry! You don’t know that Lin Huan was born gluttonous. For him, saying that someone tastes good is a great compliment to her. He is complimenting you. !”

“Really?” Azhu was skeptical.

“Really real.” Fang Wujing nodded as if pounding garlic, then pointed Lanhua to dust her silk and satin with great diligence.

Ah Zhu snorted, the anger on his face had disappeared, replaced by a slight curiosity, a child-like character, and his temper came and went quickly.

She glanced up and down at Lin Huan, her eyes bent into crescent moons: “So you are Lin Huan? That god-man who can eat ten big meat buns in my uncle’s mouth?”

Upon hearing the big meat bun, Lin Huan swallowed, feeling a little hungry again.

Ah Zhu chuckled, and dropped a sentence “Really a fool”, and ran away with a smoke over Lin Huan’s shoulder.

Lin Huan frowned and said, “Why does she call me stupid?”

Fang Wujing gave him a chestnut and cursed: “It is not wrong to say that you are stupid!”

…

In the early morning of the next day, Xiao Changning woke up again in a cold bed. The place where Shen Xuan had been on the couch was already empty, and she quietly left her out of the palace at some point in the morning.

Xiao Changning lay on the couch for a while, waiting for the dizziness in his mind to disappear, then pushed away the bedding and got up.

Unexpectedly, she felt a little nauseous together. She retched on the edge of the bed for a moment. From the corner of her eyes, she spotted a familiar book under the pillow beside her. She couldn’t help but pulled the book out from under the pillow.

It is Shen Xuan’s impermanence book.

Huh? Was it too rush to go out and landed here?

Xiao Changning held the booklet for the most part and hesitated for a long time between reading and not reading it. Then, he carefully opened the title page and thought: I will take a glance, and if there is a secret, I will keep it for him so as not to be caught. Look at it!

However, when I turned it over, there was a correct line of words on the title page: Present to my wife Changning.

The handwriting is very new, with the fragrance of pine ink, which was obviously written a few hours ago.

Xiao Changning was startled, and then he was overjoyed. He didn’t even feel nauseated. He chuckled and said, “It turned out to be a gift to me.”

Since it was given to her, Xiao Changning no longer had any scruples and opened it up to observe it grandiosely.

The first date was October 18th, Jiashen Year. It was recorded: I entered the palace today and accidentally heard that Changning and Xiao Wanan were arguing with Dongchang for shortcomings, which was very unexpected.

On October 19, Jiashen year, record: One night, her high fever finally subsided.

On November 27, Jiashen year, record: assassinated and kissed her. The princess of Changning was appreciative of the food, and the supervisor was very happy to see… but I don’t know where the joy comes from? Can’t calm down all night.

On November 28th, Jiashen year, record: She said she wanted to form an alliance with the Governor. Weak as rushes, what does alliance mean? The Governor actually agreed, which is unbelievable. Seeing her frankly and frankly stealing the’baby’, she felt funny again. If the governor hadn’t buried A Qi’s objects in advance, it would have almost caused a catastrophe. I wonder if A Qiquan would have any thoughts?

On the second day of December of Jiashen year, record: She hugged the Governor, and her heart was very happy.

December 20th, Jiashen year, record: She was very brave today, helping the Governor to kill Yu Yunqing and relieve the worries of the future… The Governor kissed her again, and she couldn’t help it.

On December 21st of Jiashen Year, record: It turned out that it was like this when I liked someone.

On the fifteenth day of the first month of the year of Yiyou, record: tangled in the bones, Fang knows deeply.

…

The eighth day of April in the year of Yiyou…

Xiao Changning was stunned, determined that the date was yesterday, and couldn’t help but feel warm, and turned the page expectantly when he settled down.

On the eighth day of April in the year of Yiyou, record: The love of this life, my wife Changning, miss you thousands of times.
