The man in brocade clothes lowered his eyes and looked at his empty waist, and suddenly smiled softly.
"Huo Ziheng, Huo Ziheng, you know that the king deliberately lured them to follow, but he used a trick to let us go... Who wins or loses depends on what he can do in the future."
"Hehehe... I am more interested in this kind of game."
"The most difficult thing in the Exile Land is the little girl, who is also the core of several forces. As long as she collapses, the Exile Land will become a piece of scattered sand again, and there will no longer be anything to fear. Attack people's weaknesses, no matter the cost !”
The guard immediately accepted the order and then asked, "Your Majesty, shall we go to Changjing next?"
"Leave Hong De to play tricks in Changjing. It's not a place worthy of my king's time."
"Then Princess Changle——"
"It's just a plaything. I'll save her life while I'm still interested in her. If I'm no longer interested, it's better to wear my shoes."
…
It's almost evening.
Every household in the village smells of firewood and fireworks, and bursts with laughter.
In the small courtyard of the Su family, Grandma Su held a wooden comb in her hand, pressed the girl on a low stool, and combed her hair in the light of day.
The woman's bun that she wore when dressing up in disguise was untied, and her hair was spread out like satin and ink.
The old woman held the comb and combed the girl's hair bit by bit. She was worried that the calluses on her hands would scratch her granddaughter's hair, so she did so gently. The smile folds on her face stretched out, showing gentleness and kindness.
"Ever since you grew up, you have always tied your hair in a high braid to save trouble. Thinking about it this way, grandma hasn't combed your hair for many years... This hair is dark and shiny, so it should be tied into a bun. It looks good. "
Tianbao sat on the stool, his head moving left and right deliberately in accordance with the woman's movements, causing him to be lightly tapped, "Sit tight, I'm just like your brothers who can't sit still for a moment, like a monkey."
Tianbao, "..." It's really not true, she just wants to tease Grandma.
"You are a teenage girl. You have to learn how to tie your hair in a bun. You can learn how to dance with a sword very quickly. Why can't you just tie your hair up?"
"With grandma here, I don't have to learn this."
"Humph, you're just lazy, and you're so glib."
Tianbao curved the corners of his lips and leaned back, leaning in the old woman's arms like he did when he was a child.
Breathing in that familiar breath, the whole person seemed more relaxed and comfortable.
Under the eaves of the hall, Bai Yu hugged Old Man Du's thigh and groaned, "Grandpa Du, give me some medicine, it hurts...hiss! Tianbao's attack is really heavy!"
The three boys from the Su family were leaning against Wei Li, squatting under the eaves of the corridor and laughing loudly, "Did you see, this girl is so squeamish...does she look like a girl? Does she look like a girl? Hahahaha!"
Wei Li couldn't help laughing, "It's a pity that I didn't get to see Yu'er's beautiful face."
Bai Yu immediately complained, "Master Su, Grandma Su, look at these guys, they are bullying others!"
Old man Su was brought into the hall to fetch a broom, and while laughing and cursing, he swept the buttocks of several boys.
The laughter from the front yard spread to the vegetable garden.
A group of men in coarse cloth and gray clothes were squatting on the edge of the field, talking and laughing around a pile of scorched earth, with sweet potato peels scattered on the ground.
Next to the men stood an elegant man in a spotless moon robe, with his chin raised slightly and his eyes clean, like a stranger who suddenly entered the scene in front of him.
"Changdong, here's another one! We grew it on our own land, and it tastes delicious when simmered!" Su Da pulled out the cooked sweet potatoes from under the mound of soil, found a good-looking one and rolled it around in his hand. It didn't feel so hot anymore. Just handed it over.
Bai Xiaofeng squinted at the dark sweet potato from top to bottom. After a moment, he reluctantly stretched out his dusty hand, half-pushing and half-taking it.
Su Er slipped back from the front yard and whispered to a group of people who were looking forward to it, "I read the imperial decree and even touched it. It's just a relatively soft piece of cloth, nothing special!"
Bai Xiaofeng, "..." Hey, I am convinced by your experience.
Country bumpkin, I'm afraid I've never seen silk in my life.
But except for him, all the bumpkins on the ground had their eyes gleaming when they heard this, "Even if it's cloth, it must be extraordinary cloth! That's something only the emperor can use! It's worth it in your life to touch it once!" "
Su Er rolled his eyes, "It's worth nothing. Have you forgotten who brought us here? Let me tell you, we and the emperor are on opposite sides. It's not an exaggeration to say that we are enemies! If the enemy sends something, I will look back on it." Let my wife use it to pad the corner of the table! Humph!"
Su Da was even more arrogant, "Isn't that right? I don't think it's stable enough to hold the table corners. Isn't it just something used by the emperor? We don't care about it at all!"
There was a sound of gasping all around, followed by thumbs up from everyone.
Bai Xiaofeng turned around silently, unable to bear his gaze. After a moment, the corners of his mouth repeatedly jumped between raising and pressing down hard.
The bright yellow imperial edict brought back by the little bastards was thrown on the square table in the main room. The Su family read it once and touched it. After seeing it, they lost interest.
Not much respect either.
Just because Su Er said something that he didn't dare to do before doesn't mean he doesn't dare to do it now, after careful study, the emperor and them were indeed enemies.
Respecting the enemy is a mistake, isn't it?
Slowly putting the sweet potato meat into his mouth one by one, Bai Xiaofeng raised the tail of his eyes and barely looked into Su Da Su Er's eyes.
It was getting dark, and the sound of a woman shouting for dinner came from the front yard.
The people in front of and behind the house dispersed in a rush.
Bai Xiaofeng walked slowly at the end, her cold white handsome face gradually turning dark, waiting for the two good brothers who were walking in front, but they started to dislike each other again.
After eating three sweet potatoes, I felt like there was a lot of waste gas in my stomach that was waiting to be released.
This feeling... When Su Er called him to eat sweet potatoes, he should have kicked him against the wall.
That night.
It's quiet at night.
Everywhere in the village, the wind went out and fell into darkness, and the villagers fell into sweet dreams.
A dark figure rolled into the small courtyard opposite Su's house, punched through the window and jumped in. He reached the bedside and kicked the person who had just laid down, "Bai Xiaofeng, get up!"
Bai Xiaofeng closed his eyes, the veins on his forehead twitching, and gritted his teeth, "What do you think my bedroom is? Come in if you want!"
"I knew you were awake, so come and have some wine! Let's go sit on the roof!"
"If you fart quickly, let it go!"
"I took advantage of this bastard today."
"I don't accept rags."
"It has the word poison on it."
After a while, the lights came on in the room.
The old man and the handsome man sat opposite each other under the lamp.
Bai Xiaofeng looked carefully at the token the old man took out by candlelight.
It's about the size of a palm, green, with the word "Poison" engraved in the middle of the belt.
"Du Wang Valley has long been gone, why did the token of Poison King Valley appear again?" Tonight's Du Bu Guo looked particularly serious, different from the past.
Bai Xiaofeng calmly took the token into his arms, "Why do I have to tell you?"
"you must know."
"Don't you already have the answer in your heart? It's no need to ask."
"where?"
After a brief silence, Bai Xiaofeng raised his eyes, his eyes dark, "You are not poisonous. Think more before you act. Don't let a group of children worry about you."
