Chapter 91 Advancing and retreating with her
Since he has threatened in front of everyone that she came from the north with King Lanling, and King Lanling has explained to everyone that she is his staff, then he will follow his plan. Going together seems to be the easiest and best way.
Moreover, it seemed that she could get some information from King Lanling about the original owner's mother Xiao Luan serving as an official under Emperor Xuan Gao Yang of the Northern Qi Dynasty.
It's just that the original owner's emotional influence easily made her develop tolerance, gratitude and different feelings towards Gao Changgong.
As he walked down the mountain, Xiao Jinyu didn't say anything. Instead, Fenghuang, who was dressed as a bodyguard, became inexplicably angry and kicked the stones at his feet.
When the three of them reached the foot of the mountain, they saw a group of guards headed by Lu Yu approaching.
"Prince!"
Several guards dressed as members of aristocratic families clasped their fists together and saluted, looking curiously at Xiao Jinyu and Fenghuang.
"Let's talk about it when we get back!"
Prince Lanling said something and then quickly walked towards the carriage not far away. Lu Yu followed curiously and asked: "Prince, you have gained a lot from your trip to the mountains. Why did you still earn two..."
Before the word "human" came out of his mouth, Gao Changgong's eyes turned cold and he stared at him fiercely.
"If you talk more, I will sell you!" he said.
Lu Yu quickly covered his mouth.
Several of the guards accompanying him couldn't help but burst into laughter. At this time, the Zhou envoys also came down from Fahua Mountain one after another. Headed by Yu Wenxun, they came to see and greet King Lanling.
"The King of Lanling deserves to be the King of Lanling. Even his staff have the ability to compete with the heroes with words, wisdom and bravery. It can be seen that the help of this staff is indispensable for the achievements on the battlefield. We deeply admire him. If the day comes, I, the Kingdom of Zhou, will step on my knees to greet you and sweep my bed to wait for you!”
It was Yu Wenhui who spoke, and while Yu Wenhui was sarcastic, Yu Wenzhi's eyes never left Xiao Jinyu's face, as if he wanted to see some flaw in her face.
Prince Lanling suddenly waved his sleeves and took Xiao Jinyu, who was dressed in men's clothing, into his arms. Without even bothering to say a word to them, he hugged Xiao Jinyu into the carriage. Phoenix followed angrily without saying a word. Dare to say it.
Yu Wenhui was dumbfounded for a moment.
"Is it possible that Gao Changgong is really as good as Long Yang?"
"I heard that he stayed in the military camp in Qi State for many years and never attended any banquets held in the Yecheng Palace. Also, the emperor of Qi State once rewarded him with beautiful concubines, but he didn't take any of them!"
"Hey, that's the unobstructed banquet that the king of Qi loves to enjoy. Gao Changgong is not as young as the weak crown now, and he is still a young man. How can he like that kind of occasion?" Yu Wenzhi said.
"What is an unobstructed banquet?" Dugushan, who had been silent until now, interrupted inappropriately.
Yu Wenzhi and Yu Wenhui looked at him with strange expressions.
After a while, Yu Wenzhi said: "You are also a fool, think about it yourself!"
"Stop talking about it. We have gained nothing from today's informal gathering. At least Xie Xiaolangjun has pointed out the shortcomings of the current situation with sharp words. I think we can copy his words of debate and submit them to my father. Maybe it will be beneficial to our country, Zhou!"
Yu Wenxun's words immediately silenced the three of them.
"This boy is indeed talented, but it's a pity that Gao Changgong got it. However, I seem to have heard of Xie Zhen, the Xie family of Chen County, but I can't remember it now."
Yu Wenzhi said, thinking carefully for a while, but finally couldn't think of anything and had to shake his head.
Suddenly he changed the subject and said, "Should we send someone to see who Xie Zhen is?"
…
Gao Changgong's stay was in a palace on the north bank of the Qianhe River. This could be regarded as an embassy residence arranged by the Emperor Chen with great courtesy. .
On the other hand, the only people who could get close to Gao Changgong were the people from Qi he brought with him, and it was Lu Yu who took care of his food and daily life.
After the carriage stopped, Gao Changgong slowly let go of his hand. Just as he was thinking about how to apologize for Shicai's rude behavior, he found that Xiao Jinyu fell asleep leaning against him.
"Xie Zhen!"
"Xiao Jinyu!"
Thinking that she had sucked out poisonous blood for him, Gao Changgong panicked for a moment, thinking that she had fallen asleep, so he couldn't help but shout in a low voice in a panic.
At his call, Xiao Jinyu slowly woke up, looked at him, and asked, "Have we arrived at your embassy?"
Gao Changgong nodded. "Is it because I drank poisonous blood, so..."
Xiao Jinyu shook his head.
"No -" she interrupted, "I've been a little tired recently, so I took a nap. I'm very sorry, but I just used the prince as a pillow!"
Gao Changgong breathed a sigh of relief and smiled happily.
"It doesn't matter. If you want, you can sleep next to me all night."
"The prince is really kind, and I am very grateful for the prince's help today..."
Halfway through Xiao Jinyu's words, he saw him making a silent gesture.
"It seems that someone is following you, but don't worry, since you are tied to me, we will advance and retreat together in the future. I will find a way to hide your identity for you."
He whispered in her ear, and his warm breath penetrated directly into her ear holes, which actually made her feel a strange feeling in her heart.
"Let's get out of the car!" he said again.
She also said hello.
The two of them got out of the carriage, and Fenghuang also got off the next carriage and followed along with Lu Yu.
"Don't say anything. Let's talk after you go in!" Gao Changgong ordered in a low voice.
Lu Yu nodded, not daring to talk nonsense anymore.
Several people entered the embassy one after another and closed the door.
As soon as he entered the palace, Fenghuang said to Gao Changgong displeasedly: "Hurry up and let go of my brother Qing!"
"Phoenix, please don't be rude!" Xiao Jinyu interrupted, "He did this just to help me today!"
"But you also helped him, Brother Qing, you can't just remember the kindness others have done to you, you also have to think about the kindness you have done to others. You will suffer a loss sooner or later!" Phoenix said unconvinced.
Xiao Jinyu shook her head and said with a smile: "A person has experienced too many things in his life. If I remember everything, I might not be able to remember so much, so... Phoenix, I will only remember the things that matter to me, the things that are worth it! "
"Okay, no matter what, as long as you think it's right, Brother Qing, then it's right! I won't bother you anymore!"
After Phoenix said something stubbornly, he ran away alone.
"Phoenix——"
Looking at the boy's running figure, Lu Yu opened his mouth for a long time before suddenly asking:
"Phoenix? Are you pretending to be... that little miracle doctor?"
He tried his best to lower his voice, and then asked very excitedly,
"How come my little lady is with my county prince today, but something terrible happened on the mountain?"
After being told by the prince, he kept the letter sent by an unknown person in his hand and waited for Xiao Jinyu's arrival. As expected, Xiao Jinyu rushed to Qi Yunfeng who was holding a chat gathering.
So, he stood guard at the intersection he had to pass and gave the letter to Xiao Jinyu, and then the rest happened.
However, Lu Yu obeyed the order and stayed at the foot of the mountain and did not go to Qiyun Peak to see what happened there.
"This matter must not be publicized, Lu Yu, remember, if you let it slip, I really can't forgive you!"
"Yes, Prince, I may be a bit mean-mouthed, but I also know what to say and what not to say. I promise not to say a word about this little lady!"
"Well, you go to Xinghua Yanyu Tower now and invite Mrs. Wei here!"
"Ah? Why do you invite Mrs. Wei here?"
"Of course I have an arrangement!" he said, then paused, "By the way, let her bring a boy with her. His figure should be similar to that boy from Phoenix."
