Lu Fei was stunned. After getting along with her for five months, he thought he knew her somewhat. He would not be stingy with small acts of kindness, such as buying a bun for a beggar, helping an old lady lift heavy objects, and helping someone if they fell. one time.
But she is by no means a warm-hearted person. She is usually sarcastic and doesn't care much about anything.
Even he, the benefactor who had been with her for five months and saved her from pursuing soldiers many times, didn't see her being very grateful.
However, he never expected that she would say something so rational that it was almost ruthless. Objectively speaking, Old Man Wen was indeed more suitable than Kong Nian, but besides rationality, there were also human feelings, the love between husband and wife, the love between father and son, and all kinds of things. miss.
"An ant can still live in vain, let alone a human being. Old Man Wen still has his wife and children alive. Why die? Do you think reincarnation is just for shopping?"
Xiyue reminded: "Kong Nian also has parents alive."
Lu Fei rubbed his brows helplessly: "I didn't say that Kong Nian should die. To Wen Xiu, whether it was Kong Nian or Old Man Wen who died, they were tearing out his heart, there was no difference.
This is not a question of death or death. The root of the problem is that the emperor is stupid and only worships his ancestors. The porcelain is of no use and he has to force the people to destroy their families. "
Xiyue was innocent: "I know, but the bad luck has happened to their family. They can't resist the government or the emperor, so they can only try their best to minimize the losses."
Lu Fei was helpless and felt that he was playing harem to a cow. "A dead father and a dead wife are the same. There is no difference in loss."
"One is a boy and the other is a girl, one is young and the other is old. How are they the same?"
Lu Fei almost cried out: "Your father is dead, is it different from your mother's death?"
"I don't have parents, but it should be different. After all, they are two people." Xiyue tilted her head slightly and thought for a while before answering very seriously.
Lu Fei was stunned for a moment, and Xuan Er had some guesses: "Are you alone?"
Xiyue nodded.
Lu Fei was relieved. No wonder she was so indifferent to the emotions between people. She didn't have any herself. How could she empathize with others.
Seeing her with no sadness or joy, and no emotional ups and downs when talking about her life experience, Lu Fei felt a little distressed and said softly: "I will be your relative from now on."
Xiyue stared at him blankly, her black pupils shining with tiny stars. Her eyes were always like calm lake water, but now the lake water seemed to be wrinkled by the breeze, causing shallow ripples.
After a moment, she blinked and seemed to have come back to her senses. Her eyes returned to calm. She turned her head and looked out the window at the endless night, and said calmly: "No need."
Lu Fei immediately became angry: "Hey, what's that tone of yours? This young hero is handsome, young and promising. How can I be your relative and ignore you?"
Xiyue raised her eyebrows and sneered: "Young and promising people will be hunted for a whole three months?"
Lu Fei was furious. Who was he being hunted for? "There are more than a hundred of them, and they have eaten more rice than me for decades. If I can tie with them, that's pretty good!"
Xiyue smoothed the wind-blown hair from her forehead and added rigorously: "With my help, we barely managed a draw."
Lu Fei hesitated for a long time and said angrily: "What an unpleasant girl."
Xiyue curled her lips and didn't care. Thinking of the white dove he let go, she asked, "What did the dove do just now?"
When Lu Fei mentioned this matter, his depression instantly dissipated, and he decided not to argue with her: "My homing pigeon, thank you for the jade rosary, my mother's poison has been cured."
"Are you leaving?"
Lu Fei nodded: "I said I was borrowing it at first, but now that my mother's poison has been cured, I will naturally go back and return the jade rosary to the owner of Zhaoyang Palace."
"No need to bother, I'll send it to you."
"It's very generous of you to give away your master's things."
Xiyue paused slightly and changed the subject: "It's been two months, why haven't the pursuers found us yet?"
"Why, you're not used to being chased by no one?" Even so, Lu Fei couldn't help but feel strange. In the past, being able to stay away for a day or two was the limit.
A few days later, Xiyue was sitting in front of the fire cage roasting sweet potatoes when Lu Fei pushed open the door and walked in: "The pursuers have probably withdrawn."
Xiyue raised her eyes and asked with her eyes.
Lu Fei's heart was heavy: "In the past two days, it has been rumored on the street that Princess Xiyue was born in Nanming. She is sixteen years old this year. How can the Zhenguo General Mansion care about avenging the son of a playboy?"
"How did this matter spread?" Xiyue raised her eyebrows. As far as she knew, there were no more than two digits of people in the entire Nanming Kingdom who knew of her existence.
Lu Fei sneered, "Of course it's the work of those powerful officials and nobles. Every family wants to replace the royal family."
Xiyue was silent for a while and then said: "You can leave without worries."
Hearing this, the heaviness in Lu Fei's heart completely dissipated, and he was so embarrassed that he almost couldn't breathe: "You just want me to leave so much. After all, we have been together for five months, and the stone should be warm!"
Xiyue rolled her eyes, wondering who kept talking about going back to see his mother every day and complaining about wasting time in saving her.
Lu Fei sat down in front of the fire cage, picked up the teacup and drank a cup of it. Then he cleared his throat and said loudly: "The famous sword Qingfeng was born in Zhujian Villa. The owner of the village decided to invite heroes from all over the world to hold a ceremony in March of Yangchun next year. In the martial arts competition, the winner will receive a famous sword. This opportunity is rare, so I naturally want to see it. What do you think, do you want to come together? "
Xiyue happily agreed to join in the fun, and then asked suspiciously: "Don't you have a sword? Do you also want a famous sword?"
"As the saying goes, a sword matches a hero. Senior Situ Xiong personally forged the Qingfeng Sword. Who in the martial arts world doesn't want it? I bought this sword with five taels of silver after I left the island. How can it be compared with the Qingfeng Sword."
"Can you beat those people?" Xiyue expressed doubts. Although his martial arts was indeed very good, he was only eighteen years old after all, so he could not compare with those martial arts masters who were in their seventies or eighties.
Lu Fei was choked so much that he said angrily: "Can't I just go and see it?"
After saying that, he glared bitterly, couldn't he be more tactful?
"Zhujian Villa is far away from Jinci Town. It takes half a month at the fastest. If we leave earlier, we won't have to rush on the road."
Xiyue nodded and said, "Let's hire a carriage to keep us warm."
"You are really my ancestor." Lu Fei said through gritted teeth.
The next day, they went to the horse and carriage shop to hire a spacious carriage, bought a few thick quilts to lay on the ground, and bought food, clothing and other items. On the third day, the two set out on the road.
The further north you go, the colder the weather becomes, and snowflakes fall all over the ground.
On this day, Lu Fei was once again choked by Xi Yue and was speechless. He lifted the curtain of the carriage and went out. He simply sat on the shaft and watched the driver drive the carriage.
There were a lot of vehicles on the official road, and horses galloped past from time to time. No need to ask, they were also going to Zhujian Villa to participate in the martial arts conference.
"Brother Lu? What a coincidence?" A surprised voice came from the side.
Lu Fei turned around and saw Jiang Shida lifting the soft curtain of the car window on the luxury carriage running parallel to them, and was pleasantly surprised.
"Brother Jiang! Nice to meet you!" Lu Fei felt that they were destined to meet each other. They said goodbye to each other at the teahouse that day, and soon Jiang Shida left Jinci Town. Unexpectedly, they met again here two months later.
"Brother Lu, where are you going?"
"There will be a martial arts conference held at Zhujian Villa. Let's go join in the fun and learn more. Is Brother Jiang going back to Pingyang?"
"Jiang Fu, stop the car! Stop too."
Jiang Shida jumped off the carriage with a serious expression: "Brother Lu, come with me."
Lu Fei was puzzled, thinking about Jiang Shida's character, and knocked on the car wall to inform Xiyue, then followed him.
After the two of them left the official road at a certain distance and made sure that no one was around, Jiang Shida lowered his voice and said anxiously: "What kind of martial arts conference are you, a big thief, participating in, and you don't want to die?"
Um?
Lu Fei was stunned, then his eyes widened, and he said displeasedly: "What kind of thief, Brother Jiang, please explain clearly."
If he just borrowed the jade rosary and used it, he would become a big thief.
Xuan'er, he felt something was wrong, and the jade rosary was delivered to Yunhuang Island by the way. According to Uncle Lu, no one chased him along the way, and no one in Zhaoli Palace noticed that the jade rosary was missing.
Ah Yue is not a talkative person. How did Jiang Shida know that he had taken away the jade rosary?
Jiang Shida said sincerely: "Brother Lu is a cool and righteous person. I know you are not a young person. You must have your reasons for becoming a big thief, but not everyone in the world understands righteousness as well as I do. In the martial arts conference, heroes gather together, you Isn’t this going to die?”
"How did you know that I am a big thief?" Lu Fei wondered. He looks dignified and full of justice, but he doesn't look like a thief.
Jiang Shida felt that he would not shed tears until he saw the coffin, and said angrily: "The white jade hairpin on your junior sister's head is a gift from the emperor. You didn't steal it. Could it be that the emperor rewarded you?"
Lu Fei's mind was a little knotted, and before he could sort it out, he heard Jiang Shida say: "Five years ago, King Jing'an accidentally got a piece of rare and beautiful jade and presented it to the court. The emperor ordered the court's famous craftsmen to carve it into a jade pendant, a jade hairpin, and a pair of earrings. .
The emperor wore the jade pendant himself and gave the earrings to the queen, leaving only the jade hosta in the warehouse. Being able to take away the hosta from the royal treasury is nothing but a great thief. "
Lu Fei's mind was a little confused and he confirmed: "You are not mistaken, the style of the hairpin is quite simple."
"Absolutely not!" Jiang Shida said firmly.
"My aunt is a concubine in the palace. Back then, all the concubines wanted this hairpin, and they tried their best, but they couldn't get it from the emperor.
Later, when my family got some good jade, they carved one according to the style of this white jade hairpin and sent it to the palace. Therefore, I was very impressed by this white jade hairpin and I will never admit it! "
Lu Fei's face sank, and his brain started to spin. He was from a martial arts background, and he was not as proficient in gold and silver utensils as those from aristocratic families such as Jiang Shida, but he could still tell that the white jade hairpin was extremely beautiful.
On that day, he saw that her clothes were not old, and she had no other ornaments except a white jade hairpin. He preliminarily assumed that she was a palace maid. It was normal for her to serve her master and receive one or two good rewards.
In addition, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival that day, and all the palace masters were celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival in Zichen Palace, so it made sense for the palace maids to stay behind.
But if that white jade hairpin is really something that the palace concubines are competing for, then her identity cannot be that of a palace maid.
That day, he felt guilty as a thief. After getting the jade rosary, he left in a hurry without checking if anyone was in the other palaces.
After thinking about it, he realized something was wrong. It seemed that only one palace light in the entire Zhaoyang Palace was on.
Living in the Zhaoyang Palace at the head of the Sixth Palace in the West, there are white jade hairpins carved from the same jade as the emperor and empress, as well as precious treasures such as jade rosary beads, and they are ignorant of people, prices, and various customs and rituals such as marriage.
Her identity is already clear, Princess Xiyue.
Lu Fei clasped his fists and said awkwardly: "Thank you Brother Jiang for helping to hide it. My junior sister has been weak and sick since she was a child. I heard that jade nourishes people, but good jade is not something you just want. I thought the one in the palace must be the best, so I touched it I went to the warehouse and picked up a random item, but I didn’t expect..."
Jiang Shida's mouth twitched. This was really his luck. There were so many jades in the warehouse, and he could easily get the best ones.
Lu Fei continued Qianqi Ai Ai's explanation: "I just... ahem, I took something like this. It's not famous in the world, and a big thief wouldn't dare to take it."
Jiang Shida nodded. Since he was not a habitual thief and had no reputation in the world, it would be nothing to participate in a martial arts conference.
After thinking about it, he warned: "That hosta is rare. Although I don't know many people about it, there are risks. Junior sister, it's better not to have it stuck in your head."
Lu Fei naturally promised that he would let her put away the hosta when she returned. He asked Jiang Shida about his purpose and learned that he was also planning to go to Zhujian Villa to experience things, so he happily invited him to accompany him.
Returning to the carriage, he stared at the white hosta on her head. It was made with fine workmanship and the edges and corners were polished very smooth. The entire hosta seemed to be soaked in water, moist and shiny, shining brightly.
"What are you looking at my hair for? Is it messy?" Xiyue touched her hair, turned sideways to the box next to her, took out a bronze mirror and took a look at it, but the back of her head rubbed against the car wall. A little messy, but otherwise fine.
She glanced sideways at Lu Fei, threw away the bronze mirror, and started eating while holding the pastry box.
Lu Fei glanced at the coachman outside, cleared his throat, and said, "The red brocade coat and the white jade hairpin don't look good. Why don't you change the hairpin."
"I only have this hairpin." Xiyue looked at today strangely, "Why are you acting weird today."
In the past, she used white jade hairpins on all kinds of clothes, and he never said whether they looked good or not.
Lu Fei racked his brains to find an excuse: "We are going to a martial arts competition. There will be many female warriors there. Your clothes and jewelry are not matching well, so be careful of being compared."
"It doesn't matter."
Lu Fei:......
"I am a young hero who wants to be famous all over the world. As my junior sister, you don't even match your clothes or jewelry. You are embarrassing me!"
Xiyue rolled her eyes: "Pretentious."
Under Lu Fei's burning eyes, Xiyue thought she might have indigestion, so she finally compromised, "Okay, okay, change!"
As she spoke, she dug out her bag, took out a red brocade handkerchief, tore it into strips, and tied it into a high ponytail like Lu Fei did.
"Is this okay? Don't you lose face as a future hero?"
"Ahem, cough, okay."
After saying that, after staying for a while, he got up and went out again. He didn't stop when night fell, and told the driver to rush for two more hours to rest in Wutong Town.
At the beginning of Haishi, the group finally arrived at Wutong Town. When Xiyue was about to close the door and go to sleep, Lu Fei stopped her.
As soon as he entered the room, he said: "You are Princess Xiyue, right."
