Chapter 167 Wei Jun Visits
Chapter 167 Wei Jun visits
Xiao Li and his group returned to Lingjiang City, and it was already dusk.
Huangfu Haotian was worried that the general and Mrs. Xiao would have some concerns about Xiao Li, so he decided to send her home directly.
Xiao Li returned home and was visiting Wei Jun. When the two of them met, Xiao Li couldn't help but feel shocked.
I looked back at Huangfu Haotian, but I didn't expect that his phoenix eyes were also looking at Wei Jun at this time, but there seemed to be a faint smile in his eyes.
Obviously, as soon as the two of them appeared, they had already attracted Wei Jun's attention. At this time, Wei Jun, who saw the two, had already stood up from the guest room and bowed to Huangfu Haotian from afar: "King Mingcheng is polite!"
Huangfu Haotian also smiled slightly when he heard this and replied, "The King of Qingzhou is polite!"
When Xiao Li heard this, she was stunned.
This person is actually the King of Qingzhou?
How is this possible?
If Xiao Li remembers it well, she seems to have heard from Mrs. Xiao and the general that she had said in private that her mother was originally the princess of the King of Qingzhou. Why did this handsome young man in his early twenties actually become the King of Qingzhou?
But soon, Xiao Li reacted and calculated based on her mother's age that the former King of Qingzhou would probably have been no longer alive. And if Xiao Li had a good guess, he would probably be his mother's nephew. If Ruoru really did this, it would not be difficult to explain why the two of them looked so similar.
There is only one thing that Xiao Li can't understand is why Huangfu Haotian and the King of Qingzhou seem to be very familiar with each other. Could it be that the two of them have known each other for a long time?
I was just about to find an opportunity to ask in private to see what was going on here. However, Huangfu Haotian actually raised his hand and clasped his fists at the general and said, "This time I came to the mansion to send Ali back safely. Now that there are distinguished guests in the general's mansion, I will not be convenient for me to disturb you here."
Seeing him like this, he is really a very sensible person. But Xiao Li still couldn't figure it out. If he was really an old acquaintance with the King of Qingzhou, how could he have just met and quit? Could it be that there is something unspeakable hidden between them?
However, not counting what Xiao Li was thinking at this time, Huangfu Haotian's actions were very consistent with the general and his wife's wishes.
At this moment, the general had already walked out of the main seat of the hall. After coming to Huangfu Haotian, he suddenly picked up his fists and said, "Since that's the case, the old minister will not leave the prince today. By the other day, the old minister will definitely hold a special banquet for the prince."
Huangfu Haotian smiled and said, "It's easy to say, since that's the case, then I will say goodbye first."
The general saw that the snow had already piled up half a foot high outside, and couldn't help but speak again: "The old minister sent the prince out."
Huangfu Haotian shook his head and smiled when he heard this, "This is not the first time I have been here, so I won't be able to find the door. Besides, since the general is guarding the distinguished guest, it is better not to neglect others." Speaking of this, Huangfu Haotian clasped his fists at the general and said, "General, please come back, I can leave by myself."
"I'll go see the prince off." Xiao Li suddenly spoke.
Although Huangfu Haotian is not an outsider, the general is a polite person after all, so it is not the same thing that just let him, a prince, leave the mansion alone. But at this moment, Huangfu Haotian said again, saying that he would not let the general see him off, which would make it a little difficult for the general to do. And Xiao Li naturally could not watch his father as a hard person.
So she raised her head and smiled at Huangfu Haotian, "Prince, since my father can't pull himself away for the time being, why don't you let me take you out of the house?"
When the general heard this, he looked at her and then at Huangfu Haotian. Seeing that there was no objection on his face, he nodded: "Since that's the case, let Ali send the prince out of the mansion."
This time, Huangfu Haotian didn't say anything. It was only a few steps anyway. Since Ali wanted to give it to him, let her give it to him.
The two of them walked out of the hall and walked slowly towards the gate.
Seeing the gate getting closer, Xiao Li finally couldn't help but speak in her heart: "Prince, you can't help but know Wei Jun?"
Huangfu Haotian nodded and smiled at her: "As early as the day of his father's birthday, he was the guest that I was responsible for specially receiving. A few days ago, he had visited my mansion specifically. What's wrong with it?"
Xiao Li shook her head after hearing this: "It's nothing, I'm just a little curious. When I met A Cai for the first time in Liufang Pavilion last time, I always felt very strange. Why is there a man in this world who imagines so much as I do?" Speaking of this, Xiao Li's expression suddenly became disheartened. She said that in the past few days, she never dared to inquire about what Yuwen Ruocai was like.
Huangfu Haotian seemed to notice her strangeness, so he suddenly stopped, reached out to hold her, asked her to raise her head and face her eyes, and asked, "What's wrong with you? Look at you, it seems like you have something to worry about."
Xiao Li looked up at him, and the snowflakes floating in the sky emitted a warm luster under the dim lantern light under the eaves. However, when they flew onto her cheeks, they were still so cold.
For no reason, Xiao Li suddenly felt a sense of grievance in her heart, but she still shook her head at Huangfu Haotian: "It's nothing, I just suddenly thought of Yuwen Ruocai, and I don't know how she is doing these days?"
When Huangfu Haotian heard Yuwen Ruocai's name, the light in his eyes suddenly became dim.
"Have you visited her these days?" Xiao Li spoke tentatively, but felt Huangfu Haotian's emotions suddenly become irritated.
Suddenly, Huangfu Haotian grabbed one of her hands and said, "Look at you, the snow has fallen into your neck." He said that, and dragged her gently, took a step and walked towards the carriage outside the gate.
It was not until he pulled Xiao Li to the front of the carriage that Huangfu Haotian stopped his steps again. He lowered his head, looked at Xiao Li deeply and said to her: "I know what you are thinking in your heart, but, that person, should you stop thinking about her again?"
Xiao Li wanted to say something, but Huangfu Haotian suddenly said, "Aren't you always curious about Wei Jun? I can also reveal another news to you. This time he came to Beijing, he planned to pick up Liu Mingyan to Qingzhou County to get married. You and Liu Mingyan, you two should be friends, right? Do you want me to accompany you to visit her again?"
She asked Yuwen Ruoran, but why did Huangfu Haotian insist on talking about the topic? He even touched Liu Mingyan?
Looking at Xiao Li's unhappy expression on her face, Huangfu Haotian finally softened his heart for a moment.
He suddenly reached out and hugged Xiao Li gently into his arms and said to her softly: "Do you know, A Li, whenever I think of that day, Yuwen Ruocai almost pushed you into the water, I felt very uncomfortable. And later, if she hadn't been just willful and treacherous, you wouldn't have to suffer such a great sin. So I decided that no matter what your relationship was like before, it would be better for you to be farther away from her in the future."
"But, they and I are always friends." Xiao Li sighed.
Huangfu Haotian lowered his head on her forehead, gently kissed her, then looked down at her and said, "Ali is obedient, you might as well not want that kind of friend."
In order not to let her think about it again, he suddenly smiled gently at her: "Since you already know that Wei Jun is the King of Qingzhou, aren't you curious about why he came to visit your parents at this time?"
After hearing this, Xiao Li finally looked up: "So, you already know?"
Huangfu Haotian whispered to her: "I only know that Mrs. Xiao was originally from Qingzhou County, but later she became the adopted daughter of Bian Wang. As for the others, I believe Ali should know more than this king, right?"
Having said that, can Xiao Li really tell him that she actually has many things she doesn't know? Although she had just started traveling through time, she unexpectedly occupied a lot of Xiao Li's memories. However, as the days went by, the soul that occupied this body is now a brand new person. And slowly, her dominant thought has slowly covered Xiao Li's memories before, so there are many things that she certainly cannot remember.
But she thought she wouldn't tell Huangfu Haotian about these words for the time being. If possible, she hoped that the secret would be kept hidden. Anyway, for her, although the days before were convenient and fast, she liked her new identity surrounded by care and warmth even more.
So for her, she would rather spend her whole life in this new world and never go back to the cold world before.
Thinking of this for a moment, Xiao Li finally decided to obey Huangfu Haotian's opinion. She had to slowly smooth out some of the relationships around her, such as the Qingzhou King named Wei Jun. According to her father and mother, did the Qingzhou King spread the world and broke off relations with her mother many years ago? Why is the new Qingzhou King taking the initiative to visit her parents now?
"Be good, listen to my words, can you go back quickly now?" Huangfu Haotian was still trying to persuade her in a soft voice. For a moment, Xiao Li couldn't help but raise her head gently and agreed to him, "Okay, then I'll send you here. You can go back by yourself later, be more careful along the way."
Huangfu Haotian laughed softly when he heard this, "I understand. I am not a three-year-old child. Besides, aren't Qingfeng and Mai guarding me here?"
"Well, then I'm back." Xiao Li lowered her head and gently stepped on the snow under her feet: "Look at the snow is getting thicker and thicker, so you should go back sooner." After that, she was about to turn around and go back home, but Huangfu Haotian suddenly used force and pulled it into his strong and warm arms again.
Xiao Li suddenly looked up: "Prince..." "Shh... I don't know when I will meet you today. You must let me be the only one." After saying that, he suddenly lowered his head and quickly took her red lips.
For a moment, Xiao Li felt sweet in her heart, but she forgot that this was the door of her house. She just let Huangfu Haotian kiss her deeply, and unconsciously raised her tongue and quietly responded to him.
After a long time, Huangfu Haotian let go of her reluctantly and said to her softly: "Okay, you go back quickly, don't let the general and the others wait too long."
Xiao Li looked up at him: "I'll see you go in after you leave."
Huangfu Haotian smiled and said, "No, I want to see you go in before leaving."
"Okay." At that moment, Xiao Li's smile was sweet, and her heart was sweet. She turned around, ran all the way back to the gatehouse, and then flashed into the gate.
Until Huangfu Haotian could not see her, he turned around and got into the carriage, then waved to Qingfeng Mai and said, "Let's go."
However, until the sound of the carriage was rumbling and walking away, a beautiful little face suddenly popped out from behind the tall gatehouse. At this time, Xiao Li's face was filled with a naughty smile, looking at the shadow of the carriage away, and said to him gently in his heart: Thank you for being so kind to me, but you may never know that I would treat you even better.
Only at that moment, her mind finally made up. As His Royal Highness told her, from then on, even if Huangfu Haotian lost his closest brother, Xiao Li was by his side. She would definitely be by his side, forever.
"Miss!" Xiao Li was secretly happy in her heart, but she didn't want to be shocked by the people behind her: "What are you doing? The master asked you to come out to see the prince, but you are fine. There were no people as soon as you go out. I thought you ran away with the prince again."
"What are you saying? Damn girl, try another one!" Xiao Li suddenly turned around, with a smile on her face, and threw herself at Qin Jian: "Look, I won't tear your little mouth apart!"
Qin Jian saw the situation and quickly flashed and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, I admit my mistake. Did I say the wrong thing? Miss, you have a lot of sir, so let me forgive me this time!"
"Hmph!" Xiao Li held back and smiled proudly at her, "If you speak like this again next time, let's see how I will deal with you later!"
