Chapter 90 Long time no see
This turned out to be an ink painting.

In the painting is a young girl with short forehead-length hair, a flower bud on the back of her head, and a few pacifiers. She is wearing a smoky brocade dress and a bright red cloak...

This is what I looked like when I was a child.

In the white space of the page, there is actually a little poem: Red lips, clever rouge, whose wife is full of haze, red cloak, brocade cloak, pointed chin and pretty cheeks, the light moon, pear blossoms and twilight, the dew is boundless and the moon is faint Yang, cool autumn nights.

This is the poem that Xuanyuan Chen wrote in front of a large audience when he was begging for Princess Heshuo for his brother.

Looking at the paper scroll, although the surface of the paper is not wrinkled, the edges are slightly old, and it looks like it has been hanging all the time.

Lightly scrolling, a piece of paper floated out from the side scroll. I picked it up and looked at it, and there were a few big characters flying across the back of the paper: Princess Ning'an, long time no see.

I narrowed my eyes slightly, clutching the piece of paper in my hand.

That's right, my eyeliner is all over the four countries, but I haven't been placed in Zhonglu.

Last year, when I was a little more fledgling, I tried every means to get rid of the few hidden guards he kept by my side.However, being able to quietly bring 8 people to Xiqi shows that this person is quite capable. It is not difficult to guess that I will send someone to investigate in the account...

"Miss, miss." Luzhu ran in from the outside and said anxiously, "Miss, the palace has sent someone to deliver a letter, and your majesty, Miss Xuan, has an audience. The eunuch who announced the edict has arrived at the door."

This is the time to go down to court, what will His Majesty tell me?
Feeling confused, I got up and changed clothes, asked Lu Zhu to pick out two pearl hairpins and put them on, and put on a little make-up, so I put on brocade and entered the palace with the eunuch.

"See Your Majesty, Your Majesty is blessed and safe, long live, long live, long live." I bowed my head.

The old emperor chuckled, and said, "Where are there so many etiquettes, Ning An, come here and sit with me." After finishing speaking, he patted the stool next to him.

I took the order, took a shallow step over to sit down, and glanced sideways out of the corner of my eye.

I hadn't seen him for a few days, and the old emperor became more and more haggard. His temples were already gray, many wrinkles appeared at the corners of his eyes, his eyebrows were thin and white, and his eyes were slightly cloudy.

Call him long live every day, who can really live long.

Counting his age, he is also 70 years old.The [-]-year-old man in an ordinary civilian family has already had a house full of children and grandchildren, enjoying the family happiness, but he still has to worry about the country.

I lowered my head slightly, eyebrows drooping.

The old emperor sighed softly, and said, "I just received a report from the frontier that your grandfather Su Huo's old injury has not healed, and he caught a cold again, and has been bedridden for several days."

I didn't answer, but I heard him say again, "The Xiqi army has lost too many battles, even lost the city, and now urgently needs a victory to boost the morale of the army..."

I immediately said, "Your Majesty Ruifu, maybe the battle has been won by now, but the news hasn't reached Shengjing yet."

The old emperor was overjoyed, "Ning An, you will really give Gu peace of mind. Hearing what you said, Gu's mood is actually a little better."

I smiled and bowed my head, and he said, "This barbarian is really hateful. If it was back then, I would have taken the lead and rushed to the enemy's tent to take the opponent's head. Cough..."

In a hurry, he was out of breath and coughed a few times.The eunuch hurried over to cheer him up, and when he got better, I bowed my head, "Ning'an is terrified, I wish I could go to the frontier, and the battlefield will relieve His Majesty's worries."

The old emperor smiled slightly, waved his hand, and some eunuchs brought tea, first offered it to His Majesty, and then put it on the table for me.He took a sip, nodded and said, "Old Pu'er, the taste is not bad, Ning'an, try it."

The two of us were ordered to take a sip of the tea cup. Before we swallowed the tea, the old emperor asked, "Ning An, when did you get in touch with Zhonglu Yudi?"

I was startled, but said calmly, "What does Your Majesty mean, Ning An can't understand."

The old emperor didn't speak, just looked at me, as if he wanted to see something from my eyes.

After a while, he smiled slightly, took out a booklet from the side and handed it over, "Ning An, take a look at this."

It is a capital offense to touch His Majesty's memorial without authorization, but when he showed it to me, it was different.

I took it generously, and found that the handwriting on the fold was slightly familiar. After careful identification, it turned out to be Xuanyuan Chen's.

Puzzled in my heart, I opened it and read it. The first half of the book was full of scenes, and there were several pages of various things, but the most important thing was the last few sentences.

It is written in the booklet: Princess Ning'an, who is endowed with natural wealth, beautiful and dignified, intends to marry her as a concubine, and I hope His Majesty will agree.

Do you want to marry her as a concubine?

I am very puzzled, what does Xuanyuan Chen mean, marry me?What a joke!
The old emperor has been watching my expression from the side. Seeing the surprise on my face, he seemed to be relieved and said, "Ning An, it is clearly written in the memorandum, that Emperor Lu's younger brother wants to marry you back Concubine, I called you here to ask you, what do you mean?"

What do you mean, of course I disagree.

But the old emperor called me over, showed me the booklets, and asked me questions, so naturally he had his own plans.

The situation of Xiqi is in front of me, but I can disagree, but the Chinese army can appear outside the city without a sound, and it can also appear in Shengjing without a sound.

But if I agree, Xiqi will lose face, and [-] elite soldiers will come outside the city, just want to marry a princess, it can be regarded as being bullied at the door of the house.

Today's Xiqi is no better than before, he is unwilling in his heart, and can't get angry on his face. The old emperor asked me to read this, maybe he wanted me to figure out a perfect plan.

I thought about it, and said, "Your Majesty, Ning An doesn't want to marry, but Ning An wants to meet that person."

"Oh?" The old emperor's eyes lit up, "Why?"

I smiled slightly and said, "Let's not talk about it, Ning'an is still a month away from Jiji, and according to the laws of Xiqi, women who have not reached the level of Ji, and men who have not reached the crown, are not allowed to talk about marriage. Breaking the rules."

His Majesty remained silent, and there was no wave in the tiger's eyes.

I continued, "The sudden appearance of the [-] elite soldiers from Zhonglu may not be as simple as asking for a marriage proposal. Ning An wants to investigate the situation in person to see what the other party's intentions are. It's better to make some plans early."

Emperor Xiqi remained silent, picked up the teacup and drank lightly, then nodded, "Forget it, Gu will prepare carriages and horses for you, you can go."

"Gao Desheng." His Majesty called out.

"The slave is here." The eunuch hurriedly bowed over.

"Go pick up the chariot and send the princess to see the emperor's younger brother of the Central Continent."

"Yes, the slave will go now." The eunuch promised, and walked out in small steps.After a while, he came in to report that the chariot was ready.I got up and saluted, then went out with the eunuch, got into the chariot, left the imperial city and rode forward, and soon arrived at the tent of the Chinese Army.

Someone had already gone in to report, and not long after, a soldier ran out and beat the cowhide drum a few times with a drum hammer. Two soldiers ran out from behind their tents, and took a red blanket from the door of a big tent to the other side. When the shop reached the chariot, a dozen or twenty soldiers in simple armor suddenly rushed out from both sides, holding weapons, and stood beside the red carpet in two teams.

"Princess, please." The visitor raised his fists and saluted, the eunuch hurriedly placed a stool under the car, and I gathered my cloak and got out of the car and stood on the red carpet.

"Please!" the man said politely.

I nodded, and walked towards the tent along the red carpet. The soldiers of the elite army seemed to be full of spirit, and the weapons in their hands seemed to be shining with cold light.

After all, she is the daughter of the Su family, a famous general, with Su Huo's iron blood flowing in her bones, she is not afraid of fighting and killing, and there are so many small weapons, so why not be afraid.

I lifted the curtain, and in the middle of the tent, I saw a figure standing back.

With his back facing the tent door, without a helmet, he was wearing an iron-colored simple armor, and his cloak fluttered slightly as he got into the tent in the hidden wind.

Although he is much taller and his shoulders are much wider, I know that back.

It's Xuanyuan Chen...

"Princess, long time no see." He turned around and smiled slightly.

Thin lips, hanging nose, a heroic face, a pair of peach eyes full of smiles.

I haven't seen him for a few years, the greenness between his brows has long faded, and he has become more mature and handsome. I was suddenly in a trance, thinking of the boy who stood under a row of lanterns and sent me home for the last time.

I smiled slightly, "Long time no see."

Yeah, long time no see.

When we met again, his [-] troops approached the city, set up camp outside the city, and handed over a paper to the palace together, asking to marry me as my concubine...

Should I lament that time is like water, or things are different!
