Jiang Yingnian saw that it was getting late, so he stood up and patted the dirt on his butt, saying, "It's almost time to go back."
Although Guan Jiyu was grateful to him for traveling such a long way at night to come here, he couldn't do much to persuade him to stay. He could only say relaxedly: "Yes, go back early to save the general from worrying about you alone."
He collected the food box on the ground and said, "Aren't you going to keep me here for a while?"
Guan Jiyu knew he was joking, so he said, "You can stay, but how about I go to the east instead?"
"Looking at the situation, maybe you all will have to come to the east in the end." He yawned lazily.
Suddenly a face flashed in Guan Jiyu's mind, and he hurriedly said to him: "Last time we separated suddenly, before I had time to tell you, when we were gathering in the capital, guess who I met on the road?"
Jiang Yingnian said: "Who is it? We can't meet the current Emperor Shu on the street at night, right?"
Guan Jiyu frowned and said, "I'm not kidding. That night, I saw no one in the streets and alleys, so I dared to gallop. Unexpectedly, I almost ran into a carriage when passing by an intersection."
She paused and said, "I saw Zhan Feng."
"Zhanfeng?" Jiang Yingnian raised his eyebrows and said, "You mean the personal guard at Duyuan Bridge?"
"Yes." Guan Jiyu nodded and said: "He is fine, why did he show up in the capital? It was in the middle of the night, and the carriage was driving in such a hurry, because I suddenly appeared and stopped him. When he turned around, his eyes seemed to be thinking.
It’s like killing someone.”
Jiang Yingnian didn't think this was a big deal, and said: "Hey, people in the capital are all weird. Du Yuanqiao is always a smiling tiger, and the guards beside him are cold and cold, with that dead face all year round.
It’s as if someone owes him 2,500,000 to 80,000 yuan.”
Guan Jiyu looked solemn and said uneasily: "But I always feel that something is wrong with that look. Besides, he and I have known each other since childhood. Even if we became our own masters later, there was no antagonistic relationship. He saw clearly that it was
After me, I didn’t even say hello..."
After hearing this, Jiang Yingnian laughed a few times and said, "Maybe he saw that you were doing well in Nanqin and he was unhappy with you?"
Seeing that Guan Jiyu was about to glare at him again, Jiang Yingnian stopped teasing and said: "No matter what he does, my eldest brother had dealings with them all before his death. That's all in the past. Now I can do whatever I want. I'm in a bad mood."
If you don't pay attention to them, just ignore them. What a big deal."
Guan Jiyu felt that what he said was reasonable, so he felt a little more at ease and said: "Okay, there's nothing wrong. You should leave as soon as possible."
The two of them returned to the main city gate along the original route. Jiang Yingnian took his horse and looked at Guan Jiyu carefully.
"If you are concerned, I won't say much. Someone will put all his thoughts on you." He thought for a while and said, "As long as he treats you well, you and Helan should also take care of themselves here."
He was told to mount his horse neatly and hurry back in the night.
Guan Jiyu originally thought that he had adapted to such a life.
The originally calm lake water remained motionless until Jiang Yingnian suddenly arrived, disturbing the tranquility in her heart.
It was already very late when we got home. Guan Jiyu tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.
In my mind, I always remember the cold wind and white snow at the Beizhong Concentration Camp.
She suddenly couldn't remember the taste of the warm chicken soup in her memory. She thought the taste would be unforgettable for the rest of her life, but she couldn't remember it after just one night.
There must be a mistake somewhere.
The snow in the back mountain is indeed very thick, how could she not know?
The deeper the night gets, the stronger the guilt Guan Jiyu feels in her heart. She dares not think about the time when she and Xiang Lincheng cooked tea in the back mountain pavilion with snow after the snow stopped. What she thought was so elegant at the time, now it seems that she feels so uneasy in her heart.
I just feel indebted.
Do you owe Jiang Yingnian?
She was vaguely inclined to this answer.
Guan Jiyu felt guilty and did not fall asleep until dawn.
Facts have proved that a place with few people is not necessarily peaceful.
Just when Guan Jiyu thought that peace would finally return here after a good sleep, little Qingyuan knocked on the door again early in the morning.
"Master Guan, are you up? Come out and have a look."
Guan Jiyu suddenly lifted the quilt. She hadn't slept well all night. Now she opened the door with dark circles under her eyes and frowned: "What's wrong? What happened again?"
Xiao Qingyuan's face was even uglier than Guan Jiyu's. She seemed to have held back a big breath and couldn't tell the complicated expression on her face.
"Master Guan, do you care about the random people who come into the army or not?"
Guan Jiyu affirmed: "Of course it's not possible. The Yanjiang Corridor is an important place for our army. How can it be that random people can come and go at will?" Then he asked doubtfully: "Who came in casually? Aren't you following Helan?
Why don't you tell him about this and see how he handles it?"
Xiao Qingyuan was encouraged by her words and became more confident, saying: "Humph, you will know when you come out and take a look. I think you are the one with the most say in this army, Master Guan? You didn't even say a word.
, why do cats and dogs dare to move in openly?"
Guan Jiyu was even more curious. The anger caused by the quarrel just now was quickly forgotten. She wanted to see who the "cat and dog" Xiao Qingyuan was talking about was?
After being brought to the door of Helan Lan's room by Xiao Qingyuan, Guan Jiyu understood why Xiao Qingyuan would seek the distance instead of looking for He Lanlan, and instead went to her room to talk to her.
She also found out who the so-called "cat and dog" were.
When he was still several steps away from the door of He Lanlan's room, he could already clearly hear the sounds inside.
Guan Jiyu even stopped, looked at Xiao Qingyuan and asked: "Is this... another one?"
Xiao Qingyuan said angrily: "Who knows how many of them have been here before?!"
Her emotion was not directed at Guan Jiyu, but Guan Jiyu couldn't help but sweat. He had to swallow his saliva and said: "Not many people came, so I'll go and take a look first."
The door was ajar, but Guan Jiyu knocked politely and walked in after receiving the answer.
Before He Lanlan could speak, the woman in the room greeted her warmly: "Master Guan, we meet again."
Guan Jiyu took a careful look at the person in front of him. This person was not a cat or a dog, nor was he another new love.
She was the girl Feng Yan who insisted on following He Lanlan that day in the ice and snow in the capital.
"Haha, hello, Miss Feng Yan." Guan Jiyu laughed twice.
Thinking that Xiao Qingyuan was still waiting for her to negotiate at the door, Guan Jiyu quickly went straight to the topic and asked: "I wonder how many days Miss Feng Yan plans to play when she comes here? In fact, we don't have much fun here, but
If you are interested, I can ask a few younger soldiers to accompany you around."
Feng Yan smiled lightly and said: "Master Guan is too polite. I didn't come here to play. It's just that Master Helan is here, so I came here."
After saying that, she glanced at He Lanlan shyly, but He Lanlan didn't react at all.
Guan Jiyu winked at He Lanlan, telling him to handle it well and avoid getting into trouble.
He Lanlan had no expression, and he didn't know whether he really didn't understand or just pretended not to understand what Guan Jiyu meant.
After a long while, he lazily propped up his chin with one hand and said, "If she wants to stay here, let her."
That day, he still had a lukewarm attitude towards Feng Yan, but today he was unexpectedly a bit doting on her?
It’s so hard to guess a man’s thoughts!
Guan Jiyu shut his mouth and silently exited the room, not forgetting to close the door for them before leaving.
Xiao Qingyuan was already overheard outside, and her face was full of disappointment. Guan Jiyu sighed and said: "There is no way, He Lan wants to keep her here, and I can't say anything."
Xiao Qingyuan hated the fact that iron was not enough and said to Guan Jiyu: "Sir!"
Guan Jiyu could only comfort her and said: "Helan is sick, he is addicted to women, and he can't live without women, but why do you like him? If you want to like him, just like someone who treats you wholeheartedly!"
"Like Mr. Jiang?" Xiao Qingyuan suddenly mentioned Jiang Yingnian and said: "Sir Guan, don't stand and talk without hurting your back, thinking that everyone is as lucky as you? In this world, people like Jiang Yingnian are so lucky.
How many adults are there like that?"
Her face was bulging with anger, but her voice softened: "What you said makes sense, but I just like Brother Lanlan. There is nothing I can do about it."
Guan Jiyu said: "Then what are you going to do? Will you go over to Helan? If you don't want to, I can arrange for you to go..."
Xiao Qingyuan quickly interrupted her: "No need! Even with this little difficulty, you can't defeat me." She gritted her teeth and said, "Let alone Feng Yan, even if Yu Yanxueyan comes, I'm not weak at all!
"
As she said this, she walked back to Helanlan's room with high spirits.
Guan Jiyu looked at her small but extremely determined back and murmured: "Why bother?"
Xiao Qingyuan mentioned Jiang Yingnian and completely regarded him as a god-like figure.
It seems that Jiang Yingnian is the representative of outstanding men.
Guan Jiyu shook his head slightly and said to himself: "Let's think of something practical."
Xiao Qingyuan prepared hot water for He Lanlan and asked someone to help bring it in as usual.
She rolled up her sleeves and was about to go in to wait for He Lanlan to take a bath, but she found that the hot water had been taken over by Feng Yan unceremoniously. She sprinkled flower petals into the water by herself, leaving only a few pieces of her clothes close to her body.
Thin cloth, so disgusting that no one can see it.
Feng Yan seemed to be in a good mood. After a few moments, she undressed and got into the bathtub. She was still humming a tune and said to Xiao Qingyuan: "Okay, I don't need you here anymore. You can leave."
"
Xiao Qingyuan clenched her fist fiercely, squeezed out a fake smile and said: "Miss Feng Yan, are you mistaken? This is the hot water I prepared for Mr. Helan to take a bath. You didn't say hello."
Just jump in and wash it, how can others wash it?"
Feng Yan didn't notice her emotions, and said while stirring the water: "Then I also have to serve Lan. How can I serve her if I don't wash her?"
Xiao Qingyuan became even more angry when she heard this, especially when she heard that she actually called He Lanlan "Lan"? Xiao Qingyuan threw the bucket in her hand and said: "It doesn't make sense, you serve him, I
I'm also serving him, so why can you order me around? What's the difference between you and me?"
Feng Yan looked back at her in surprise and scolded: "Of course there is a difference! I am waiting for him to sleep, and you are just doing the work of serving tea, pouring water and cleaning. You are a Hechiliu
How can a refugee from this country be compared with me, little girl?"
The refugees of Hechiliu Kingdom...
All Xiao Qingyuan's strong outer shell was severely pierced by Feng Yan's few fluttering words.
The cold frown on his face disappeared instantly, leaving only a deep sense of inferiority.
She silently picked up the bucket and walked out of the room without saying a word.
As soon as I walked out of the door, I met He Lanlan who had just returned from the meeting hall.
He Lanlan was still calling her: "Xiao Qingyuan, why are you so quiet today and don't say a word when you see me?"
Xiao Qingyuan had no intention of talking to him, her eyebrows were drooping, she just shook her head and walked away quickly.
