The golden crow falls to the west, and the willow branches rise above the moon.
The moonlight is bright and clear in the night sky, and the clear light is shining, while the stars are dim and dim.
The lanterns in the capital have already started to light up, and the yamen office of Honglu Temple is also brightly lit.
Several lights flickered in the beauty's boudoir, and a shadowy figure reflected on the window behind the dressing table.
The quiet courtyard is particularly peaceful under the bright moonlight, and the chirping of autumn insects can be heard from time to time in the courtyard.
It adds a different note to the quiet courtyard that is different from the sound of silk and bamboo.
In Sakai Hoshino's boudoir.
At this time, the beauty's cheeks were flushed, and she was sitting in front of the dressing table with a charming and lazy expression. She was combing her waterfall-like black hair with a wooden comb in front of the mirror in front of her.
Sakai Hoshino put down the wooden comb in his hand, picked up the jasper hairpin that Mr. Liu gave him during the day on the table, and gently inserted it into the bun.
"Hoshino, have you dressed up?"
"That's good, that's good, what's wrong?"
"Where did you put the towel? I can't find it."
"I wiped my hair and put it on the dressing table. Liu-kun, please wait a moment, Hoshino will send it to you right now."
The beauty immediately stood up and straightened the hem of her clothes and skirts, picked up a few towels at hand and walked gently towards the back of the screen...
"Jun Liu, here is the towel, wipe your hair quickly."
Liu Mingzhi buckled the jade belt around his waist, casually took the towel from Sakai Hoshino and covered his wet hair.
Sakai Hoshino saw that the towel in Liu Mingzhi's hand had become wet, and immediately handed over another one.
"Liu Jun, it's time to change the towel. A towel can't wipe the moisture off your hair."
Liu Mingzhi nodded with a slight smile, took the towel from the beauty again, wiped his hair, and happily looked at the charming and beautiful woman in front of him.
Sakai Hoshino looked at Young Master Liu staring at him intently, and subconsciously looked around on his body, but found nothing wrong.
"Liu Jun, what are you looking at?"
Liu Mingzhi looked at the beautiful lady's brows, with the lingering charm of joy on her face, and his eyes fell on the hosta on the beautiful lady's bun.
"So lovely."
Sakai Hoshino's pretty face rolled her eyes charmingly, and whispered quietly.
"Pah, you know how to say something nice."
"I'm talking about the beautiful hosta on your head."
"you!"
"However, people are more beautiful than hostas."
The beauty snorted, threw all the towels into Young Master Liu's hands, turned around and twisted her curvy figure towards the outside of the screen.
"Huh, poor guy."
After a while, Liu Mingzhi put all the towels on the hangers, stretched out his arms and walked towards the screen.
Liu Mingzhi stretched out his hand and beat his aching waist a few times. Looking at the beauty who was arranging fabrics in front of the desk, a bitter smile appeared on his lips.
I have somewhat underestimated the fighting ability of this silly woman.
If I hadn't been slacking off in practicing the Yin-Yang Harmony, Great Compassion, and the Benefiting Qi Sutra, two Taoist secrets, I would have been almost unable to withstand it.
It's not that he is not strong enough, but that Sakai Hoshino is just like Yan'er, Bizhu, Lingyi, Rongrong, Chen Jie, He Shu and their sisters a few years ago. They are ordinary women who have no knowledge of any martial arts.
Now Yan'er and the other sisters have all practiced an internal skill and mental method under his own training.
Although their sisters' strength is only a small achievement, when it comes to bed matters, they can at least use the yin and yang and the Great Compassion to nourish yin and yang, and store up energy and sharpness without any scruples.
Now, Hoshino, a silly woman, has two techniques that are useful for nourishing yin and replenishing yang when men and women are in love, but they have no use at all.
Liu Mingzhi looked at the beauty's slim figure arranging the cloth, and secretly made up his mind.
If Sakai Hoshino does not return to Japan, he must teach her an inner skill and mental method.
Otherwise, if you remain the same as you are now, you will most likely die young in the long run.
Liu Mingzhi let out a long, silent breath, walked straight to the beauty's dressing table and sat down.
"Hoshino, I've wiped my hair. Come and smooth it out for me."
"Hey, here we come."
When Sakai Hoshino heard Liu Mingzhi's greeting, he hurriedly put down the cloth in his hand and walked towards Liu Mingzhi.
Sakai Hoshino stopped behind Liu Mingzhi with light steps, picked up the small fan on the table, gently picked up a handful of his hair and started to fan it gently.
After the hair in her hands was completely dry, the beauty held up a handful of hair and continued to fan the cool breeze.
Liu Mingzhi looked in the mirror at the beautiful woman behind him who was fanning his hair with a smile on his face. He leaned back slightly and leaned in the beautiful woman's arms. He closed his eyes slightly and quietly smelled her body lingering under the tip of his nose.
Lightly aromatic.
Sakai Hoshino looked at Liu Mingzhi's somewhat lazy expression, smiled tenderly, and continued to fan the hair in his hands.
"Hoshino."
"Huh? What's wrong?"
"After you comb my hair later, go and call your nephew Sakai Ga."
Sakai Hoshino's pretty face was overjoyed, and his beautiful eyes flashed with unspoken excitement. He seemed to have understood the reason why Liu Mingzhi asked him to call his nephew Sakai He over.
Although Liu Mingzhi had told himself during the day that he had agreed to his nephew Sakai Ga's request, the reward of military equipment had not been officially finalized for a moment, which meant that something unexpected might happen.
She never worried that Liu Mingzhi would deceive her or act contrary to her promise.
What she was worried about was what would happen to the Goguryeo mission and officials from the Dalong court.
Liu Jun asked himself to call his nephew over, most likely to formally finalize the reward of military equipment with his nephew Sakai Ga.
Looking at Liu Mingzhi's lazy but resolute face with affectionate eyes, the beauty nodded heavily with a smile on her face.
"Hey, Hoshino knows.
After I comb Liu Jun's hair, I will go to He'er immediately to inform him to come and pay homage to you."
Liu Mingzhi nodded slightly, opened his eyes, picked up a jade bracelet from the jewelry box on the table, and played with it carefully.
"Hoshino."
"Um?"
"Your heartbeat has become faster, and it seems that you are excited again.
Tell me the truth, were you worried before that I might go back on my word?"
The small Qingluo fan in Sakai Hoshino's hand paused slightly and shook his head hurriedly.
"Mr. Liu, Hoshino won't lie to you. Before things were really settled, Hoshino was indeed a little worried.
However, what Hoshino is worried about is not that Mr. Liu will deceive me or go back on his words, but that other changes may occur during the period.
For example, those bastards from the Goguryeo mission would interfere with it, or another sudden change would occur.
No matter Liu Jun, you believe my words or not, Hoshino will tell you that I have never doubted Liu Jun, your sincerity towards me.
Just like Mr. Liu told me before, Hoshino is Hoshino, and the mission is the mission.
The same is true in Hoshino's heart, Mr. Liu is Mr. Liu, and others are others.
The relationship between the two of us is just the relationship between the two of us."
Liu Mingzhi listened to the beauty's somewhat nervous explanation, looked up at the beauty behind him with a complicated expression, raised his hand and patted the back of her hand.
"Xingye, you understand Dalong's culture so well, you should understand what Jun Wu Xiyan is.
I am not asking you this question to doubt you, but I hope you can relax.
I hope you can be happy and live your own life happily, and don't put the burden of your elder brother on yourself all the time.
You should live for yourself and choose a life that belongs to you."
Sakai Hoshino looked at the distressed look in Liu Mingzhi's eyes, and nodded with an extremely moved expression.
"Yeah, yeah, Hoshino understands."
"Okay, I hope you can really understand."
Sakai Hoshino didn't answer anything. He put down the light fan in his hand with a smile, picked up the wooden comb on the side and began to comb Liu Mingzhi's scattered hair.
After about half a cup of tea, the beautiful lady leaned over and looked at Liu Mingzhi in the mirror, carefully sizing him up, straightening his clothes with light movements.
"Liu Jun, it's ready."
"Thanks a lot."
"What are you talking about? Why bother? I can serve you Xingzhi willingly."
Liu Mingzhi nodded with a smile, turned around and pecked the beauty on her lips.
"Hoshino, I suddenly feel very regretful."
"The feeling of regret? What do you regret?"
Liu Mingzhi reached out and hugged the beautiful woman's waist, hugging her into his arms.
"I regret that I was too young and didn't realize how good you are.
I regret not keeping you and letting you marry someone else.
I shouldn’t have regretted it before!”
Sakai Hoshino had just sat down on Liu Mingzhi's lap with tender eyes. After listening to his words, a flash of panic suddenly flashed in his beautiful eyes.
Biting her red lips lightly with her teeth, she remained silent for a moment. Sakai Hoshino looked at Liu Mingzhi with a sad look.
"Liu Jun, you...you..."
Liu Mingzhi looked at the beautiful woman whose expression suddenly changed with confusion, and hurriedly asked in a harmonious voice: "What's wrong? What's wrong? Hoshino, are you okay?"
A hint of guilt flashed in Sakai Hoshino's beautiful eyes, and her slender jade fingers hooked together and kept tugging.
"Liu Jun, me.
Do you dislike Hoshino for not being perfect? Do you dislike Hoshino for not handing over his clean body to you?"
"Why do you think so?"
"You just said you regretted letting me marry someone else. Although Hoshino's husband is no longer alive, I have already married someone else once.
Hoshino knows that you big dragon men care about whether a woman's body is clean.
But I don’t want to do this either. If you think I won’t do it..."
Liu Mingzhi looked at the beautiful lady's helpless look on the verge of tears, nodded directly and kissed her red lips.
After a long time, Liu Mingzhi took a long breath, reached out and pinched the beauty's crimson cheeks.
"Now, Hoshino, are you worried about anything?"
Sakai Hoshino shook his head gently, and said in a sweet voice with slightly parted lips: "Liu-kun, I'm sorry, I don't want to think that way.
I am really afraid that you will dislike me, and I am even more afraid that I am not worthy of you."
"Hoshino."
"Um."
"To be honest, I don't deny that as a man, he couldn't get his woman's body. It's impossible to say that he doesn't have any regrets in his heart.
However, just because I am sorry, it does not mean that I will dislike you.
Really, I don't care whether you are perfect or not at all.
After all, it was me who didn’t keep you here, so you married Hua Qi later... What is Hua Qi doing?"
"Hua Qi Road."
"Yes, Hua Qilu.
It was my own fault that led you to marry Hua Qilu, and it had nothing to do with you.
look at me."
Sakai Hoshino looked stunned, pursed his red lips and looked straight into Liu Mingzhi's eyes.
"Mr. Liu."
"Sakai Hoshino, I, Liu Mingzhi, can tell you seriously that I have never disliked you."
Sakai Hoshino looked at Liu Mingzhi's sincere eyes quietly. After a long time, the beauty smiled and nodded heavily.
"Mr. Liu, Hoshino believes in you."
Sakai Hoshino replied to Liu Mingzhi in a loud voice, and left his arms with an elegant gesture of blessing.
"Mr. Liu, Hoshino will go find you first..."
Before Sakai Hoshino finished her sentence, a knock on the door suddenly sounded in the room, interrupting her words.
There was only a knock on the door, and the cheerful and clear voice of the little girl Hua Qiyingzhi came from outside the door.
"Mother, mother, Brother He asked me to call you to have dinner, so I went in."
Sakai Hoshino heard his daughter's voice coming from outside the door, and his pretty face turned confused and glanced at the door.
"Mr. Liu, Yingzhi is back, Yingzhi is back, what should I do? What should I do?"
Liu Mingzhi looked at the pretty lady's flustered face and chuckled helplessly.
"What should I do? Open the door."
"No, no, if we let Ying Zhi come in, wouldn't she know about what happened between the two of us?"
"Huh? Mother, why did you lock the door?
Mother? Mother? Have you rested? Brother He asked me to call you to have dinner, can you open the door? "
"Mr. Liu, what should I do? What should I do?"
Sakai Hoshino's face became more and more nervous, as if he had done something shameful.
Liu Mingzhi picked up the jade fan on the desk and flicked it gently, then touched the robe on his body with his finger.
"Hoshino, what is this?"
"Clothes."
Liu Mingzhi nodded slightly and pointed at the beautiful woman's emerald green brocade cloud gauze dress with his finger.
"What are you doing?"
"It's also clothes."
"That's alright, we are both wearing clothes, Sakura-ori can come in as soon as she comes.
What if she sees the two of us together? What do you have to worry about? "
"that's true!"
Liu Mingzhi couldn't help but burst out laughing when he saw the beauty's silly reaction.
"Hehehe, what is it? Hurry up and open the door."
"Yes, yes, open the door, open the door, I'll open the door right here."
Sakai Hoshino nodded hurriedly, turned around and trotted towards the door.
The door opened in response, and Hua Qiyingzhi looked at her mother, who was standing behind the door with a slightly nervous expression, and walked into the room with a depressed face.
"Mom, it's just dark and it's not time to go to bed yet. Why did you close the door?"
"Yes, sir?"
After Hua Qiyingzhi walked into the room, she found Liu Mingzhi sitting on the chair, fanning the folding fan and looking at her happily.
The little girl gave a surprised sound and hurriedly walked up to Mr. Liu and gave her a blessing.
"Sakura greets you sir."
"No gift."
"Thank you sir."
"Little girl, you're here to call your mother to have dinner, right?"
"Yeah, yeah, sir, you heard it all. Yingzhi thought you had gone back."
"Yes, sir, you and your mother have been chatting about serious matters for a long time. We just finished talking before you came."
The little girl nodded clearly, glanced at the empty teacup on the table, and quickly picked up the pot and poured a cup of tea.
"So that's it. Thank you for your hard work, sir."
Liu Mingzhi glanced at Hoshino Sakai, whose face gradually calmed down, with a strange expression, and rubbed the tip of his nose with a half-smile.
"Yeah, it's quite hard.
Your mother is so stupid, sir, I have to put in a lot of effort to have a good discussion with her!"
Sakai Hoshino's pretty face turned red and he glanced at Young Master Liu hastily.
