Acacia, don't be negative

Chapter 248 Visiting the General's Mansion

Baili Mingshu turned her wrist and wanted to break free, she frowned and asked, "What are you doing?"

"Take you out for a drive."

"Go away! I won't go!"

The two women immediately came to a stalemate in the yard.

Baili Mingshu sneered: "Miss Ye, if you don't leave, you won't be able to leave when the guards come back later. Maybe you will be arrested as an assassin. Don't think that I will speak for you."

"Are you going or not!" Ye Song was also afraid of this, and lost his patience. "You think I want to come to you?"

"Then please go back, don't send it away."

Ye Song got angry immediately, and cursed: "You fucking don't want to toast or eat fine wine, believe it or not, I'll beat you up!"

Baili Mingshu was not to be outdone, and directly threw out her fists - welcome to challenge at any time.

Ye Song gave her two kicks, and she was about to pinch her again. She turned her mind and smiled, and Baili Mingshu's fist stopped less than an inch in front of her, so she stopped by: "Take you Why don't you go to our house for dinner?"

Baili Mingshu was stunned, and Ye Song looked at the sky again, and said, "At this hour, my eldest brother should have just returned from the training ground and is about to have dinner. Do you want to go or not?"

After saying that, Ye Song turned around and left, but within five steps, Baili Mingshu behind him said, "Wait a minute."

Ye Song turned around: "What, you want to follow me?"

"If you take me to your house, you won't be afraid of offending your Northern Xia emperor if you find out?" Baili Mingshu asked.

Ye Song's pupils darkened suddenly, and his tone suddenly became hostile. He said, "You can leave as soon as you want, why are you asking so many questions? Is that something you should worry about?"

As she said that, she came over and grabbed Baili Mingshu's hand, and dragged her out without any explanation.The two walked to the shade of the tree at the corner, seeing no one on the left and right, they both climbed over the palace wall and went out.

Baili Mingshu was silent, and Ye Song led the way, walking in the quiet alley that was gradually darkening, the bustling streets outside were faintly visible, as if separated into two worlds.After walking for a while, Baili Mingshu said with a little emotion: "The back streets of Beixia have a certain flavor."

Ye Song glanced at her and said, "Of course, Jin Di doesn't have such a bustling market and such a quiet alley."

"How do you know?" Baili Mingshu was a little dissatisfied with Ye Song's words, and then said calmly for the first time, "Well, it is true. In recent years, Jindi has built many brick houses and learned the civilization of Beixia. , but immature after all. It’s just that thanks to Beixia’s blessing, our tribe was spared the fate of wandering in the grasslands and deserts.”

Ye Song snorted and said, "You say that, but in fact, you don't do it like that. Since you have accepted Beixia's kindness, why do you want to avenge your kindness?"

Baili Mingshu said: "A king of a country has his own considerations. Do you think you can make your country long-term peace and stability just by knowing how to repay your kindness?"

"Don't talk to me about the way of being a king," Ye Song said as he walked, "I just want to ask you, the reason why your younger brother, the king of Jin Di, dared to disturb my border in Beixia was because he was instigated by others. ?”

"It's useless for you to ask me, I never ask these questions."

"Then what are you asking? Isn't it just a war?"

"none of your business."

Not long after, the two arrived at the general's mansion.Baili Mingshu stood in front of the mansion, looked at the two guards in front of the gate, then looked up at the gate of the general's mansion, and did not move.

Ye Song had walked up several steps before turning to look at her.Baili Mingshu asked, "Is this Ye Xiu's home?"

The ridicule in Ye Song's eyes flashed, and he said, "Do you want to come in?"

When they walked to the dining room, the maids at home were orderly ordering meals on the table.Accompanied by Chunchun, Ye Qing had already entered the dining hall, the general moved neatly, and after returning from the training ground, he tidied himself up and sat in his seat.When Ye Song brought Baili Mingshu in, both father and daughter's eyes stared straight.

It was Ye Qing who came back to his senses first, kept glancing at Baili Mingshu, and at the same time put on a smile and pulled Ye Song's arm, saying: "I said why the second sister ran out while eating, so tonight Our house has a visitor. Second sister, she is..."

Ye Song blinked at the general and Ye Qing, and said, "The eldest princess is willing to come to our house for dinner."

Baili Mingshu nodded to the general, and the general quickly turned around and said, "Princess, please sit down."

Ye Qing sat next to Ye Song, couldn't help but peek at Baili Mingshu who was on the other side of Ye Song, and whispered, "Second sister, the princess's eyes are blue, so beautiful, are all tamarins like this? "

Ye Song didn't think about this question, so he thought about it for a while and said, "Probably only the nobles of Jindi have it."

The seat next to Baili Mingshu was empty.Ye Song asked, "Brother hasn't come back yet?"

Ye Qing's expression showed a hint of joy, and he said: "I'm back, I just need to take a shower and change clothes first."

The general exchanged a few words with Baili Mingshu across the empty seat, and Baili Mingshu answered very properly, neither saying much nor saying too little.After a while, those who were absent walked into the dining room without haste.

After Ye Xiu took a shower and changed, he was still wearing his customary brocade blue robe, which was not at all rough and careless of the hot-blooded soldiers in the barracks. It was refreshing and a bit slow.Those eyes are no longer as cold as the cold stars on the battlefield, but full of gentle warmth, slightly tired.The point is that he is much more casual at home than outside, never expecting to have guests at home, his hair is half-dried and not tied up, and he came over for dinner just casually draped over his shoulders.

As a result, Ye Xiu raised his eyes and unexpectedly met Baili Mingshu, who also turned his head to see it, and was very surprised.Her pupils are like a pool of clear blue water, and when they meet, they seem to be blown by the wind, causing layers of ripples.

Baili Mingshu was in a daze, and her gaze fell on Ye Xiu's skirt involuntarily.It was neatly folded there, and it was also very complete.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Xiu frowned slightly, and said, "Why are you here?"

Baili Mingshu lowered her eyes, smiled lightly, and said, "General Ye Xiu hasn't seen you for a long time, does this mean you are not welcome?"

"Why don't you welcome me! You are very welcome!" the general greeted with a haha, "Xiu, come and sit quickly, you are the only one missing!"

Ye Xiu had no choice but to come over and sit down, each of them started to eat with their chopsticks.Ye Xiu basically had no common topics with Baili Mingshu, and the atmosphere on the table was also weird. Ye Qing's eyes kept going back and forth between Baili Mingshu and Ye Xiu, and he smirked from time to time.

Ye Xiu caught Ye Qing's gaze coldly, and said, "What's so funny?"

Ye Qing shook his head: "No, no. Brother, the princess is visiting our house for the first time, what are you doing with a straight face?"

The muscles on Ye Xiu's face were indeed a little stiff, and he said, "I don't know why the princess is interested in coming to the General's Mansion?"

Baili Mingshu said: "Just a little bit interested. General Ye Xiu, although you and I fought each other on the battlefield, now that the two countries have re-established friendship, does it mean that the general still regards Baili as an enemy?"

Ye Xiu said nonchalantly, "Didn't the princess try her best to kill me?"

Baili Mingshu held the jug, poured a glass of wine for Ye Xiu and herself, and said, "At that time, each was in charge. I believe that General Ye Xiu is a sensible person. Let's make amends with wine, and do it first." After finishing speaking, she raised her head and drank the glass of wine.

Ye Xiu glanced at her, noncommittal.Ye Song smiled and said, "Brother, the eldest princess is like this, so you should save face."

Ye Xiu gave Ye Song a pair of supercilious eyes for the first time, and then he picked up the wine and drank it down. Then he continued to hold on to the same question, and asked again: "Why did the princess come to the general's mansion?"

Seeing that he was so entangled, Baili Mingshu was also a little angry, and immediately responded: "General Ye Xiu thinks I have to come here, I'm just trying to save face for Miss Ye."

Ye Song coughed lowly, and said, "Actually, I invited the person here, and the person here is a guest, brother, please be more polite."

Ye Xiu looked at Ye Song indifferently, and said, "I'm asking, the emperor has not issued an order to lift the ban on the palace, no one is allowed to visit the palace, how did the eldest princess come out?"

Ye Song: "Come out over the wall."

Ye Xiu twitched the corner of his mouth: "...Hurry up and send him back after dinner before he is noticed."

Afterwards, Baili Mingshu ate sullenly.She didn't even realize that, after every dish that Ye Xiu had eaten, she would use chopsticks to taste the dishes that Ye Xiu had eaten, and then she felt that Ye Xiu's favorite flavors were not so tricky, and she didn't dislike them.

Ye Qing saw it clearly, and whispered in Ye Song's ear: "Second Sister, Big Brother has really good eyesight."

Ye Xiu's hearing is very good, he only paused with the chopsticks in his hand, but he was very self-aware and didn't say a word, otherwise he would not be able to speak clearly even with a hundred mouths.

After dinner, Ye Song asked, "Eldest Princess, does the food in the mansion suit your taste?"

Baili Mingshu said solemnly: "Very good." However, the wine here seemed to be strong enough, and she hadn't drunk much yet, her cheeks were hot and smoky.

The servant girl served her a cup of sobering tea, but her pair of deeper blue eyes stared at the servant girl, as if she could seduce people's souls. Even though she was a woman, she still made the servant girl blush and her heart beat.Baili Mingshu said: "Do you think I need tea to sober up when I'm drunk?"?
"This..." The servant girl didn't know what to do.

Baili Mingshu said again: "I'm in Jin Di, and I can drink kumiss on the grassland without getting drunk. Your Beixia's wine tastes like clear water."

Ye Song asked the servant girl to put the tea back, and said amusedly, "Drinking tea after a meal in Beixia can prolong your life. It doesn't mean that you have to sober up after getting drunk. The princess can taste this year's new tea."

Baili Mingshu propped her chin and tilted her head to look at Ye Xiu. Ye Xiu frowned.Distraught, she rubbed her face with both hands, and said, "I don't want to drink! Come on, being courteous for nothing is either rape or stealing. You can't invite me to dinner for no reason. What do you want me to do?"
