Early in the morning, Yan Yu lightly touched Xia Jingyan's shoulder, but Xia Jingyan was always sleeping deeply and did not respond at all.
Lu Chaoya straightened her clothes, took a breath, patted Yan Yu, and said with an "experienced" expression on her face: "Sister Yan Yu, you can't wake up the master, look at me." Lu Chaoya patted her.
He patted his chest and said.
The next second, Lu Chaoya's voice penetrated the entire military camp, like a lion's roar, scaring away the birds on the tree: "Master! Get up! Let's go out and fight!!!"
Zhou Ranzhuo and Gu Yun in the other tent were both frightened and woke up.
"What's wrong! Is it on fire? Is there an earthquake?" Gu Yun started to flutter.
"Mr. Zhou, brother Gu, it's Miss Lu who is asking the princess to get up." The guard raised the curtain and replied.
Good guy! Lu Chaoya is practicing lion roaring skills!
"Lu Chaoya! I'm going deaf, what's the matter with you!" Xia Jingyan pulled Lu Chaoya and swayed for a while.
"Master! I was wrong... Let's leave quickly..." Lu Chaoya almost fainted.
No matter how hard it was, it was too late to hit the road. Zhao Qichen took Xia Jingyan, Lu Chaoya, Yan Yu, and Zhou Ranzhuo and changed into casual clothes and rushed to the farmer's house down the mountain.
"Brother Qiechen, you look good in this gown. You look like a handsome young man like no other in the world." Xia Jingyan said as he lay behind Zhao Qichen.
"Yan'er, you have learned to be clever!" Zhao Qiechen smiled.
Along the way, Xia Jingyan only praised Zhao Qichen and didn't even talk to Zhou Ranzhuo. Zhou Ranzhuo walked beside Xia Jingyan with a straight face.
Although he said nothing, the sour smell like an overturned vinegar jar could be smelled from far away.
"You should be the only one! Why can Zhao Qichen call her Yan'er! Zhao Qichen also blocked the arrow for her???" Zhou Ranzhuo was feeling depressed and flustered in his heart, but he still pretended to be so.
Light breeze.
Little did they know that Xia Jingyan was walking through the market and had already been interested in the new pieces of cloth in the stall. However, if Zhao Qichen didn't allow it, Xia Jingyan couldn't stop and could only keep talking to Zhao Qichen.
Zhao Qichen also understood what she meant, but Zhou Ranzhuo didn't notice it.
"Okay, let's go pick it out and wait for a while, don't miss it..."
Before Zhao Qiechen could finish speaking, Xia Jingyan had already disappeared, and Lu Chaoya quickly followed.
Yan Yu looked around and realized that it was not convenient for him to get along with two foreign men alone, so he also followed the cloth shop.
"Hey! Girls, let's take a look at the new fabrics in the shop. The girls look as bright as a fairy. This silk and satin is the best choice."
Seeing Xia Jingyan's elegant attire, the cloth shop owner acted as if he saw a large bag of money walking in. He quickly abandoned the customers in civilian clothes and stepped forward to greet him.
"Bring me the latest silk and satin from your shop. If I like it, I will reward you generously." Xia Jingyan threw down two taels of silver on the table and put out the money bag.
"Hey! Okay!" The boss's eyes were shining brightly, his money bag was huge, and a reward would be two taels of silver, so he must be a rich man.
More than a dozen clerks were busy, and they emptied most of the shops and lined them up in front of Xia Jingyan.
"Your choice, guest." The cloth shop owner nodded and bowed in front of Xia Jingyan.
"Pick what you like and make new clothes for the New Year. That's enough." Xia Jingyan sat upright and said to Lu Chaoya.
Lu Chaoya's vision was similar to hers, so it would be easy for her to choose her.
"Okay, Master!" Lu Chaoya almost wanted to throw herself on those fabrics. She felt that it was a bit embarrassing to pick them all by herself, so she said to Yan Yu, "Sister Yan Yu, you can pick some of them too!"
Yan Yu turned around and glanced at Xia Jingyan. After receiving confirmation from his eyes, Yan Yu also walked to the fabrics and picked from left to right.
At the end of the day, Lu Chaoya chose seven or eight pieces of cloth, all of which were of the highest quality. The boss's eyes almost gleamed, but when he looked at Yan Yu, she didn't pick any of them.
"Sister Yan Yu, don't you like these?" Lu Chaoya looked at Yan Yu's side and asked, "Did I pick out the ones you like?"
"No, no," Yan Yu smiled, "It's just that these styles of clothes are not suitable for Yan Yu. They are too delicate. Yan Yu is serving the prince and does not dare to wear such gorgeous clothes."
"Oh, okay." Lu Chaoya said nothing.
These words are indeed Yan Yu's inner thoughts. She is Xia Jingsheng's female officer, how dare she dress like a young lady? She doesn't mean anything else, but these words are awkward to Xia Jingyan's ears!
"What do you mean by Yan Yu! Does it mean that we are dressed in gorgeous clothes? I don't care about the rewards from the princess, but she still wants the rewards from Brother Wang!" Xia Jingyan leaned into Lu Chaoya's ear and whispered softly: "She just wants to be on top!
"
"Master, I guess not. Yan Yu just said that he is not suitable, so that's not the case..." Lu Chaoya responded.
"Turn your elbows outward! Yan Li, Yan Yu's father, even framed this princess for having an affair. Yan Jieyu's Yan Ling is also charming and charming. How can Yan Yu be better as a daughter and sister?
Go? You are so ambitious!" Xia Jingyan stared at Yan Yu's back and whispered.
"Anyway, I don't like her. If I'm here, she won't be able to climb onto Brother Wang's bed!"
At the foot of the mountain, Wangjiazhuang.
"General Zhao! You are finally here!" There was an old man in the village, dressed like the owner of the village, trembling, pacing uneasily in the courtyard. As soon as he saw Zhao Qichen, he rushed towards him as if he were seeing a Bodhisattva.
He went up and knelt down in front of Zhao Qichen with a thud.
"Old man, there is no need to give such a big gift. Get up quickly!" Zhao Qiechen hurriedly went to help him.
"General Zhao, please save my daughters! They are still young and must not fall into the den of thieves!" The old village owner cried with snot and tears.
The old village owner asked his wife to call his daughter out. The three girls couldn't help wiping their tears and calling out: "General Zhao, help!"
"Relax, old man, and don't panic, girls. These three will be sent to the mountains instead of the three girls." Zhao Qiechen led the old village owner to look back.
Xia Jingyan chuckled. To put it bluntly, he was just trying to be cool and clearly looked down on that group of bandits.
Lu Chaoya was also laughing beside her, not panicking at all. She felt that she was just like the heroine in the playbook, helping the poor and saving the world. The main reason was that she knew that Xia Jingyan was by her side. As long as her master was there, no one could
I can't bully her either.
Among the three of them, only Yan Yu bit her red lips lightly, her heart pounding. It wasn't that she didn't want to help, she was just afraid.
Xia Jingyan is protected by the entire Xia family, and Lu Chaoya is protected by Xia Jingyan, but who will protect Yan Yu?
"My name is Xia Jingyan, Princess Anning of the capital city." Xia Jingyan clasped her fists in a heroine-like manner. It's rare to be cool, so she has to behave well.
Lu Chaoya imitated Xia Jingyan and said, "I'm Lu Chaoya, the female official of the Xia Palace."
Only Yan Yu bowed slightly according to the usual etiquette and said: "Yan Yu, the female official of the royal family."
Zhou Ranzhuo also said: "I am Zhou Ranzhuo, a guest of the royal palace."
The old village owner frowned and said uneasily to Zhao Qiechen: "General Zhao, the princess has a rich body, how dare you let the princess suffer for me, a daughter of a poor family?"
"Don't worry, old man. This princess has been practicing martial arts since she was a child. She is just a bandit. And my brother Qichen and Ranzhuo are protecting me. It will be fine!" Xia Jingyan said first.
Lu Chaoya noticed that Xia Jingyan's "Ranzhuo" was so smooth, and she was secretly happy.
"Then... here are Princess Lao and a few others." The old owner bowed in thanks and invited them into the back room.
According to what the old village owner said, the bandit leader has taken a liking to the old village owner's three daughters. He wants to welcome the three girls today afternoon. He wants the three girls to wear wedding clothes and sit on the flower bridge. He also wants the old village owner to welcome them.
The dowry, worth a hundred dollars, was carried into the mountains by bandits.
Betrothal gift? Of course I don’t have half of it. It’s good if I don’t invite bandits to beat me up.
"Bah! Who is this person? He robbed the girl!"
Xia Jingyan was sitting in front of the mirror, dressing up, and Yan Yu and Lu Chaoya were also sitting nearby, listening to the three poor girls describing how the bandits had placed the wedding invitation that day.
"Hey~ I didn't expect that the first time in my life I showed my phoenix crown to a bandit." Lu Chaoya sighed at the side.
"Then why don't we finish wiping out the bandits, go back and dress up with the second brother again, and then let the second brother reward you?" Xia Jingyan teased.
Lu Chaoya's old face turned red and she immediately retorted: "Master, what are you talking about? Then you can show Mr. Zhou what you're wearing. Mr. Zhou is right outside the house. Chao Ya can help you call him in!"
As Lu Chaoya said this, he got ready and was about to shout towards the door.
"Hey, don't, don't, don't! It's okay if I don't say anything!" Xia Jingyan quickly stopped, while the two sisters were quarreling.
Only Yan Yu remained silent and huddled quietly in the corner. She was not interested in Xia Jingyan and Lu Chaoya's gossip. She was only worried about entering the bandit's den soon. She always felt a little uneasy and had a vague feeling that something would happen.
"Yan'er." Zhou Ranzhuo called out. Looking back, Zhou Ranzhuo and Zhao Qiechen entered the back room.
Hearing this affectionate name, Zhao Qichen glanced at Zhou Ranzhuo strangely.
Zhao Qichen won Xia Jingsheng's approval because he had worked for Xia Jingsheng for many years. He was allowed not to call Xia Jingyan the princess in private, but what happened to Zhou Ranzhuo?
I thought so, but Zhao Qiechen didn't say anything.
"Ranzhuo, do you think it looks good?" Xia Jingyan hurriedly threw away Lu Chaoya and rushed to Zhou Ranzhuo.
Lu Chaoya stuck out his tongue behind him and said, "You've forgotten your true love!"
That's what he thought, but Lu Chaoya actually hoped that Xia Jingxuan could take a look at her in her wedding clothes.
"It looks good." Zhou Ranzhuo smiled.
It's not nonsense. Although Xia Jingyan is a little immature, his appearance is indeed stunning. Compared to the two "first beauties" Yan Yu and Zhou Yunwan, he is not inferior to the two "first beauties", and is even a little outstanding.
Even wearing a coarse red dress and a simple velvet flower on her head could not hide her beauty. Looking at this fairy who fell into the mortal world, Zhou Ranzhuo seemed to have instantly forgotten all the words of praise he had learned, and could only continue Xia Jingyan's words.
A nice sentence.
Zhao Qichen watched from the side, inexplicably feeling that something was wrong.
