Chapter 300 Looking at the scenery and telling stories
When she got up the next day, the Empress Dowager looked better than yesterday. Xu Jiao and others accompanied her to the main hall for morning class. She said that she would talk about Zen with Master Liao Chen, so only the eldest princess and Hui Hui were left behind. Princess Ming accompanied them, and as for the young people like them, they were sent out and let them go and play by themselves.

Xu Jiao was more familiar with this Hongfa Temple than Li Xie and Cui Wenyin, so he acted as a tour guide for a while, leading them around the temple and the back mountain. They also called her together.

Along the way, there was nothing unusual about her, she looked around and asked questions from time to time, as if she really just played on a whim.Xu Jiao did her best and was very warm and considerate to her.

When Li Xie saw it, he snorted and said, "You have a long heart. You are so kind to him, but he misses your things. Don't be Mr. Dong Guo and a wolf." Just don't start and leave.

Cui Wenyin was inexplicable, "What do you mean by this?" Tiaoya, who looked not far away, seemed to be concentrating on the scenery, and asked, "What does she miss about you?"

Xu Jiao smiled slightly, took her hand and said, "Do you believe my nonsense? Besides, in your opinion, I will let others miss my things?"

Cui Wenyin looked at her, then shook her head resolutely, "Of course not!" Xu Jiaosuri looked at her with a smile, but he was not easy to mess with.Anyone who dares to miss her things must have the consciousness of being beaten!

"Isn't this the end?" Xu Jiao raised his eyebrows and smiled at her, his eyebrows and eyes were full of wanton flying.

The Empress Dowager talked with Master Liaochen about Zen for half a day, but she was still not at ease, but seemed to be full of melancholy, her brows were furrowed, even the dinner was just a few quick bites, and the eldest princess served her early. After resting, Xu Jiao also wanted to leave.

Who knows that before she moved, Princess Huiming smiled and said, "I was so bored last night, thinking that you young ladies are here to accompany you, it is a bit difficult for you. I will let them find out If you have some smart things, why don't you go to the 熳熳 room and play for a while, it's also good to relieve boredom!"

"I won't go, I've been shopping all day today, I'm a little tired, go back and have a rest earlier!" Teng Ya refused, after finishing speaking, she saluted Princess Huiming and then turned and left.

Xu Jiao glanced at Gu Ya's back, she and Li Xie looked at each other and hated each other, wouldn't it be embarrassing for them to be together?Presumably Li Xie was also unwilling.

Xu Jiao looked at Li Xie after thinking about it, but Li Xie looked at her a little arrogantly, but nodded and said, "Okay! It won't be more boring than last night! Come with me!"

As Li Xi said, he already walked away with his hands behind his back, not giving Xu Jiao a chance to refuse at all.

Xu Jiao frowned, looked at her back, and then glanced at the smiling Princess Huiming. After all, she didn't say no, she sighed and said to Cui Wenyin, "Let's go!"

Princess Huiming has prepared some clever gadgets, which are not bad to pass the time.But Xu Jiao had something on his mind, so it was inevitable that he was a little absent-minded, and wanted to leave after playing for a while.Unexpectedly, today Li Xi seemed to be deliberately against her, insisting on pulling her away, let her play leaf cards for a while, and Shuanglu for a while, and finally slapped the table, saying, "Aren't you the best at drawing?" Painting? I heard that you even painted a portrait of the concubine Wan, it's so lifelike, why don't you draw one for me too!"

Xu Jiao didn't say anything, just looked at her with a frown.

At this glance, Mrs. Li Wu, who is in the rebellious period, is very sensitive and awkward. Immediately, she raised her eyebrows and said, "What do you mean? Is it possible that I can't ask you to draw a picture for me?"

Xu Jiao smiled good-naturedly, "Okay! But this painting also needs to express one's mood. Let's wait for another day. When I have the inspiration for painting in another day, I will definitely draw one for you. Right now..." Xu Jiao yawned backhandedly, "I'm really sleepy, so I won't accompany you guys for now, I'm going to sleep!" Xu Jiao stood up while speaking.

But Li Xun snorted, raised his hand to grab her and said, "No! I want you to draw now, otherwise you just look down on me! Then I have to ask you to give me an explanation!"

Xu Jiao looked at her, but suddenly smiled, "Tell me! Why do you insist on letting me stay here? Is it your intention or your mother's intention?"

Xu Jiao's sudden question made Cui Wenyin startled, and together with her, she looked at Li Xie in a daze.

Li Xing's face froze, and his eyes flickered under the stare of the two people. After a long while, he coughed and said, "Why don't I understand what you are talking about?"

"You really don't understand?" Xu Jiao asked back, seeing that she lowered her eyes and flicked around, but she didn't answer, she snorted and turned her head away, "If that's the case, then I'll go back and rest first, I'm really sleepy! "As he said, he took a step forward.

"Wait!" Seeing that she really left as she said, Li Xi hurriedly called out to stop her. Seeing that both Cui Wenyin and Xu Jiao turned their heads to look at her, one looked suspicious, while the other was calm and calm. Li Xie is not very old, and he is not good at raising energy. He bit his lips and finally said without holding back, "Yes! It was my mother who ordered me to keep you in my room. My mother never told me why. It will only harm you. So, you can stay here with peace of mind, don’t you still have me with you? What are you afraid of?”

Xu Jiao's eyebrows were furrowed, "Did Princess Huiming say how long she would keep us?"

"That's not to say, after all, if you are tired, you can rest here with me... Hey! Where are you going?" Unexpectedly, Xu Jiao walked directly towards the door while the words were still on his lips. go.

The movement was so fast that Li Xi couldn't stop her, she pushed open the door and walked into the deep night outside.

Li Xi was startled, then snorted, "What a ignorant person!"

Unexpectedly, Xu Jiao left the house but failed to walk out of the courtyard. As soon as he arrived at the gate of the courtyard, two figures appeared out of nowhere. It was a master, one of them stretched out his hand to block her way, then clasped his hands and said, "Princess, please come back, don't embarrass the little one!"

Xu Jiao pursed the corners of her mouth slightly, her eyes were shining brightly, she stared at the person, and said softly, "Get out of the way!"

Those two were silent, but their feet didn't move at all, they were still like two walls, firmly blocking Xu Jiao's way.

The corner of Xu Jiao's mouth pursed, and the short dagger in her hand was about to be unsheathed, but suddenly she heard the sound of sharp blades piercing through the air, and the two people standing in front of her reacted quickly, and quickly pulled out the weapon in their hands to fight back. Stopping, clang clang sounded endlessly, and then, a few black shadows jumped out of the dark, and a few people jumped out of the yard, and the two sides were fighting in the same place in an instant, and the sound of hand-to-hand combat was like a golden stone hitting the ears, clang.

Xu Jiao couldn't tell the difference between friend and foe, he frowned for a moment, then simply took advantage of the chaos and ran out of the Zen courtyard, turned around and ran to the other side, where the Empress Dowager and the eldest princess lived.

After running a few steps, she stopped suddenly because her way was blocked again.

Genya changed the gorgeous colorful dress she wore during the day, and only wore a quiet black dress, holding a horsewhip in her hand, and her high ponytail moved regularly as she flicked the whip lightly. Swaying behind him, a pair of light-colored eyes stared at Xu Jiao in the dark night, showing two indescribably strange.

The four eyes met, but she smiled with red lips, "Where is the princess going in such a hurry?"

The solemn look on Xu Jiao's face was replaced by a sudden sweet smile, "I'm going to visit the queen mother in this direction. It's the princess of the princess, it's late at night, after all, it's in the mountains, the moon is dark and the wind is high, the road I'm not familiar with it, so I'd better go back and rest earlier." Xu Jiao said while nodding to Teng Ya, and then walked away.

But before she passed Teng Ya, Teng Ya took a side step with a smile, stood in front of her again, and said with a smile, "Speaking of which, the road here is really not as familiar as Princess Yingyue's." , but I couldn't sleep, so I came out to get some air, and I happened to meet Princess Yingyue, how about asking Princess Yingyue to walk around with me just like during the day?"

"As for the Empress Dowager... There are two princesses by her side, and countless guards and servants are waiting on her. I think it will be fine for me to borrow the Princess for a while, right?"

Xu Jiao looked at Gu Ya's seemingly pure and slightly curved eyes, and the corner of her eyes turned to the side behind her, seeing a few people in black clothes who quietly stood behind her and blocked her way, she said she would not go ,May I?

Xu Jiao suddenly lifted his lips and smiled under Gao Ya's almost sharp stare, "Okay! The Empress Dowager told me to entertain Princess Bao Ya well, and since the Princess asked for it, I naturally wanted to do everything Yes. I wonder where the princess wants to go?"

It is said that the moon is dark and the wind is high, but it is not.Tonight there is a waning moon, hanging on the treetops, but the clouds are thick, and the waning moon will be covered from time to time, and the moonlight is not clear. However, walking among the mountains and forests, the cool breeze is blowing, it is very refreshing.

"Don't tell me, the scenery of Hongfa Temple at night is different from what you see during the day, and it has a different flavor!"

"Look there, there are fireflies!" Xu Jiao suddenly pointed to the grass not far ahead, full of surprise and authenticity, "I just feel happy to see a few here, and I heard that summer nights on your grassland are called fireflies." It’s beautiful, not only is the color of the starry sky magnificent, but the place where there are fireflies is like the Milky Way falling from the sky, it’s so beautiful that it’s not like ordinary dust, but is it true?”

Xu Jiao asked, every word was full of joy and lightness, but she couldn't get the response she wanted.

Turning his head and looking, there was no trace of relaxation on the face of Teng Ya who invited her out, even the deep smile just disappeared, and he looked at her with a frown, with eyes full of doubt and inquiry , secretive.

"Princess Yingyue, where are your two maidservants? As I remember, they will never leave your side!" Genya seemed to have not heard her question just now, and asked her instead.

"Are they? They are tired enough to stay with me all day, so I let one of them go back to rest first, but Hongying is guarding outside. I haven't thought about it if the Princess Pride doesn't say anything." Get up, why didn't you see her? This Hongying...couldn't have slept somewhere?" Xu Jiao frowned as she spoke, with a hint of displeasure in her tone.

"By the way, why would the princess of Tiaoya ask about them? But what's the matter?" Xu Jiao looked at Thongya, her eyes shone like stars in the night.

Genya looked at her, with all kinds of unspeakable and complicated emotions in her eyes. After a while, she suddenly opened the corners of her mouth and smiled, "It's nothing, I just saw that Princess Yingyue is alone, so I just asked casually. Fangcai County When the Lord mentioned the scenery in the mountains, I suddenly thought of an excellent place to see the scenery that I passed by during the day.”

Xu Jiao just looked at her, and smiled sweetly like before, unable to tell whether it was joy or unwillingness.

About a quarter of an hour later, they came to a cliff. When they came to the edge of the cliff, the wind suddenly picked up. But standing on that cliff, they could see the whole Hongfa Temple at their feet. Amidst the sound of pines and waves, fireflies are dotted, and under the hazy moonlight, the distant mountains and near scenes seem to be shrouded in a thin layer of gauze, indistinct.

"How is it? I didn't lie to the princess, did I? Climbing up and looking far away, the scenery here is not bad?" Genya raised her hand to wink at the following subordinates, and those people retreated temporarily, she He stepped forward and stood side by side with Xu Jiao.

The wind rushed towards their faces, blowing the clothes on their bodies fluttering, but it also blew away the heat of the day, making it refreshing and pleasant.

Xu Jiao nodded, "Stand tall and look far away, among other things, looking at the scenery in front of you can open your heart a lot." The corners of Xu Jiao's mouth were slightly curved, still smiling sweetly, and the corners of his eyes were slanted. Leaning on the elegant place beside him, he gently picked it up, "However, this scene is a good one, but this place is a bit dangerous. If someone pushes us behind such a high cliff while we are not prepared, it will not be a big deal if we fall down." It's just for fun. Don't you think so? Princess Guya?"

Ruo Ya lightly pursed her lips, and did not answer her words, her eyes fell indifferently but far away on the hidden mountain scenery bathed in the hazy moonlight, "A few days ago, and these two days are all thanks to Yingyue County The lord has taken care of you. There is a saying among you that is to reciprocate. We Beijie people also say something about friendship. I have nothing to repay Princess Yingyue. The beautiful scenery in front of me tonight makes people feel refreshed, so I will tell Princess Yingyue a story?"

Xu Jiao looked at her with raised eyebrows, his eyes seemed to see everything, but they were calm and calm.

Teng Ya turned her head away, didn't look at her, and didn't give her a chance to refuse, after a slight pause, she faintly told the story in her mouth. "Once upon a time, there was a prince on our prairie. He was the first-class warrior in our clan, the eagle on our prairie, and the king that everyone on the prairie chased after. Everyone expected him to lead our people. Leading the entire grassland to create a different tomorrow. When he was 15 years old, the old Khan made a marriage for him. She was a girl like a pearl. Behind her was a strong family force. As long as she married her, she The family behind it can become the prince's strongest backing, and the prince's position can be strengthened."
