The glow broke through the sky, and at the last quarter of an hour of the day, the sky finally cleared up.
The white clouds are soft and fluffy, and the clouds are not gathering together. In a moment, the night will come.
Lu Jieming wrapped a blanket around him and nestled in an armchair. His rugged shoulder blades could be seen through his thin clothes. He was slightly feverish, and his temples were hurting from the upper half of his face.
There were guards guarding the tent outside, and even the imperial doctor blocked the outside.
Many matters of the winter hunt were arranged by the people below. They stood by and explained the preparations to Lu Jie one by one, no matter how detailed they were, and he listened to them one by one.
Dou Xihui had a dagger on his waist, and his dark eyebrows became even colder in the gradually darkening room.
The bridge of his nose wrinkled, he stood leaning against the desk, and his ears could no longer hear anything at all.
His eyes first fell on Lu Jieming's moon-white robe, and then spread over his delicate eyebrows, inch by inch, and the corners of his mouth tightened.
Lu Jieming pressed his slender fingertips on his temples, and his thick black eyelashes cast a layer of shadow around his eyelids, covering all the expressions and emotions in his eyes.
Wang Fulu's words were like a thorn, stabbing straight into Dou Xihui's heart. He had been the favored son of heaven for too long, and the stars were all over the moon. Except for his mother's affairs, he had never felt like he did now. .
Angry and powerless.
He should have been calm and calm, and quickly chosen himself out, but at this time, he turned into a hedgehog, trapping himself, and was forced to get stuck between Lu Jieming and Xu Lianlang.
The man in front of him was so much younger than him. He was just leaning on the armchair lazily. He obviously didn't say a word, didn't say a word, and made no sound, but he could easily spread the word and become an army without being angry.
He had never put himself on the opposite side of Lu Jieming before. Since he was a grasshopper on a rope, a wise king and wise master was his best choice as a minister, but now, he felt that his excellence was really annoying. Hate.
One after another, people opened the tents and came out. There were fewer and fewer people in the tent. The small space slowly became wider, and even the irritability caused by lack of oxygen was suppressed.
Until they were the only two people left in the tent.
Lu Jieming lowered his head and flipped through the documents, then suddenly looked up and said, "After returning to Beijing, we will have a wedding. I immediately sent someone to Qinghe County to invite my sister's parents."
He has obviously arranged everything in order, "I asked the embroiderer in the clothing workshop to sew the wedding clothes. The materials used are all high-quality, so they will not lose the dignity of the town government."
< br>
"I bought a house in the suburbs of Beijing. It's not very big. After getting married, I don't think Mr. Dou will continue to live with the people in the Zhenguo Palace. In two days, I will go and see it in person and buy some decorations."
"I also have a dowry..."
Dou Xihui frowned and shouted in a low voice, "Is this your highness's wedding or your minister's?"
No matter how big or small, he, Lu Jieming, arranged everything, what the heck was he, Dou Xihui.
Lu Jieming seemed to be shocked for a moment. He stacked the documents and put his hands behind his back. His nails scratched the skin of his tiger's mouth. The pain in his temples suddenly intensified, but he had to keep a gentle smile and called out, " Brother-in-law.”
The ironed words came out of his mouth with great skill.
Dou Xihui was stunned for a moment, then raised the corner of his mouth sarcastically for a while, "How dare you, Your Highness, call me that?"
Lu Jieming stood up from the armchair. The blanket slipped from his waist and fell to his snow-white ankles. In the cold winter, he kicked his shoes barefoot and walked to Dou Xihui with a smile.
In my impression, his body has always been as thin and tall as a green bamboo. After a closer look, I saw that his lips were white and his chin was even thinner.
He looked very bad.
Dou Xihui wanted to laugh. If he loved her and she loved him too, then he was nothing.
Wang Fulu didn't say it for sure, that's what the words meant. He didn't believe it at first, but today's posture fully verified Wang Fulu's words.
A man's mind is not that delicate, but when his feelings are only for the same woman, he can easily understand the thoughts behind everything Lu Jieming did.
If it's kindness, why bother?
Probably apart from family affection in this world, only love can make people so selfless.
Dou Xihui touched the dagger on his waist, his face became stiffer and stiffer, he squinted his eyes, "Your Highness likes Lian Lang."
The thunder on the ground should have broken people's hearts and hearts, but unexpectedly, Lu Jieming's shoulders that were originally slightly shrugged slowly relaxed.
If his love is destined not to be revealed to the world, then the more people who know it, the more it can prove its existence, even if this person is Dou Xihui.
There was less charcoal in the stove in the tent, and the tent could not protect itself from all winds. There was always a slight wind blowing into the tent from all directions. Lu Jieming's sleeves were blown and had a small wrinkle. He lowered his eyes. , rub the mark with your fingertips.
The clothes were made of rough material, with bamboo embroidered on the cuffs. They were not very beautiful. They were already too small when they were put on him. When his arms were stretched out, the wrist bones would be exposed.
He chuckled softly and looked at the wilted red plum. "This dress was made by my sister in Shuyunge back then. Her red dress was not good and the tailoring was not good, but I was always reluctant to wear it because it was too long." If it’s gone, it will get dirty, it will be broken, and it will never be there again.”
His eyes were gentle and his pupils were bright, "But what can I do if I don't want to let go? The clothes will be too small and the people will leave."
"I like her, love her very much." He enunciated the words clearly. It took no effort to say what he had been grinding for so long, but it was also the last time he said it. "But she doesn't like me. She even feels disgusted and disgusted with what I want to give her." Feelings.”
His voice became deeper and deeper, "Master Dou, why should you be angry? We all like her, but you are the one who can own her in the end. I just want to do a better job in the end."
Lu Jieming was a little cold. He looked at the blanket lying on the ground and was too lazy to get it. "If my brother-in-law doesn't like it, then forget it."
He spread his hands and made the final compromise.
Dou Xihui was in a daze when he left. He knocked over Wei Shuning's porcelain vase and scattered the newly cut red plums on the floor. He didn't even have time to apologize or apologize before he strode away.
Xu Lianlang was known as a female official, and her accommodation was always much better than that of an ordinary servant girl. When Dou Xihui opened the tent and entered, she had just taken off her inner garments.
Large swaths of fair skin were exposed, and her slender waist was not tight. She turned her back to the tent and tied her hair high, making her tall and slender figure even more obvious.
Hearing the movement near the door, she quickly lifted up her clothes. As soon as her clothes were pushed up to her shoulders, she felt a tightness around her waist, and her whole body was pressed into a man's chest.
It was an unfamiliar smell to her.
She struggled wildly, and Dou Xi hugged her tighter when he replied, "It's me. My wedding is coming soon. Can't I hug you?"
His half-hurt words made Xu Lianlang lose his strength, "I'm sorry, I didn't know it was you."
His chin rested on her shoulder, and the green stubble rubbed her delicate skin. "Of course you won't know it's me. We have never been so close."
Dou Xihui's Adam's apple rolled up, and his fingers caught her chin, forcing her to lift her chin. Looking at her red lips, he kissed her accurately.
Her lips were as soft as she expected, but her teeth were iron-clad. No matter what he did, she didn't open her mouth to accept him.
Does this simple touching of lips count as a kiss?
The woman in her arms was stiff, and what she touched was like a stone, and what she held turned into a stone.
He completely lost the momentum he had just now, his lips left hers, and the bitter smile on his face caused the smile marks at the corners of his eyes, turning into a bitter look. His hand went along her back to comfort her, "Lian Lang, the imperial edict has been issued, and none of us have There is no way out.”
They hugged each other and couldn't see each other's expression clearly. He had a gentleman's face and acted elegantly and uprightly, but at this moment, the blood of a wild beast gushed out.
If Lu Jieming knew that Xu Lianlang also liked him, what else could he have?
He was extremely selfish and wanted to turn into a hedgehog, hurting himself and hurting them. Lu Jieming personally pushed Xu Lianlang to him, how could he return it? Don’t even think about it!
If my mother hadn't welcomed that woman back, how could my father spoil his wife and kill his concubines? He couldn't do the same thing again.
He vigorously pulled Xu Lianlang into his arms, leaned close to her ear, and kissed her on the shell of her ear, "I don't want to go back tonight."
……
The next day, the weather was fine, and the wild beasts in the winter hunting forest were driven to run around in the forest. In winter, everything is lazy and can't run fast after eating. In order to ensure the fun of hunting, some stimulant drugs were added to today's wild beast meals.
Early in the morning, the howls of wild beasts came from the forest, and the thin layer of snow that fell yesterday had completely melted.
When Lu Jieming came back from patrolling the forest on horseback, his eyelashes were covered with frost. He turned over and got off the horse and saw Concubine Li coming all the way.
The emperor had not brought Concubine Li to hunt for several years. This time it was Concubine Li who begged and begged again and again, saying that she was getting older and wanted to move this bone while she could still move.
Concubine Li's general family is full of generals. She grew up playing with bows and arrows.
It was not an extraordinary request, so the emperor agreed.
Concubine Li waved to him, "I haven't seen your mother yet. Go and have a look. She just came back today."
The lipstick on her lips was rich in color, and the more intimate her waving gesture became, the more obvious the sarcasm in her eyes became.
Until she walked to Lu Jieming, her hand with long nails patted his shoulder, "I don't know how to call someone after seeing me. Come on, I won't argue with you anymore, go see your mother quickly. ”
She walked past him holding her long skirt and raised her lips, "They are all just clowns."
Lu Jieming turned around and faced her, "Mom, it's better to take care of yourself. Brother Six has just been imprisoned. Jieming believes that one day the truth will be revealed about those unsolved and wrongful cases."
The meaning in his mouth was not concealed, and the color in his eyes darkened. He simply looked at Concubine Li, his lips and teeth moved, their lips came together and then opened. Concubine Li understood, and the fear in her heart immediately spread. His limbs were all broken, his knees softened, and he almost fell to his knees.
If you have no regrets in your heart, why should you be afraid of cows, ghosts and Buddhas?
Her expression changed completely, "The Emperor will not believe you."
Lu Jieming smiled without saying a word and walked away from her.
He had already investigated almost everything about Concubine Rong back then. Concubine Li provoking him at this time was tantamount to playing with fire and burning herself.
The unjust cases of that year should have been resolved long ago.
His mind was a little confused, and he did not go to see the sudden arrival of Rong Bin. He walked casually, and when he raised his eyes again, he was in front of Xu Lianlang's tent.
The tip of his tongue touched his back molars, and he held a corner of the curtain with his hand, never opening it.
If he didn't open it, someone would naturally open it from the inside.
When a corner of the man's robe was exposed, he had already moved his eyes and dodged with a leap on his toes.
That robe was so familiar to him. He could clearly see it yesterday. The auspicious cloud style was that of Dou Xihui.
He is no longer a child. He knows very well what can happen when a man and a woman are in the same room.
All the energy he had managed to maintain seemed to have been revoked, and his temples, which had been hurting for a long time, suddenly became hot. He walked slowly and reluctantly returned to the tent.
That night, a high fever broke out.
He doesn't care about a woman's first time, he just feels that she will never belong to him in this life.
Without playing and singing, without the fluttering red silk, without the box full of dowry he had prepared, she had completely become someone else's woman.
He knew Xu Lianlang too well. If he didn't really like her, he wouldn't let his body sink.
That is true love.
Lu Jieming has been suffering from minor illnesses in the past few years. His body is far from being as strong as it appears. For him, a sudden fever is considered a minor illness, but he can survive it.
Fortunately, all the preparations for the winter hunt have been made, and he no longer needs to carry this body around.
He fell asleep in bed for a long time. He was always sleepy and fell asleep when he was sleepy. All winter hunting activities were postponed and he was too lazy to put food into his mouth.
On the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, his birthday, he finally had some strength and got up from the bed.
There was no one in the tent, so he cleaned himself up slowly, barely remembering that it was his birthday.
He found a red cloth ribbon and tied it on his head, and wore the most fitting clothes. He remembered that Xu Lianlang said that she would accompany him on his sixteenth birthday.
It seems like they haven't spoken for a long time...ever since his crazy questioning...
He knew that she never broke her promise, so she went to the kitchen to wait very early. When the cooks saw him coming, they didn't know how to use their hands and feet. He thought they were in the way, so he asked them to leave.
Isn't it a hindrance? After a while, Xu Lianlang came. The cook was here, how could she prepare the noodles?
He held his chin and wondered whether he should eat one poached egg or two.
It was better to eat three. After she got married, she might not be able to eat. As she thought about it, she thought of the scene when Dou Xi returned from the tent.
He rubbed his forehead, looked at the maidservant who hurried over, and followed the maidservant back to the tent.
The stove was lit again in the tent, and it was warm. The longevity noodles on the table were steaming.
His throat was throbbing, so he picked up the chopsticks, stuffed it all into his mouth, touched it with the tip of his tongue, and spit it out again.
Totally wrong.
He raised the bowl of noodles and looked at it carefully, when he suddenly heard a commotion outside.
There was a noise coming to his ears. Something happened while hunting in the forest, and someone was injured by an arrow.
The man could not be saved and had already passed away.
She was originally a maid, which was nothing, but a few days ago, His Majesty just married her to the wife of the Crown Prince-to-be of the Zhenguo Palace.
"Kangdang"
The noodles were spread all over the floor, revealing three poached eggs lying inside.
