Chapter 784: There is no disaster, but there is joy
Xiao Zhenzhen laughed and let out a long sigh, "Then I'll go back."
"Well, I send you off, Your Majesty."
"You should have a good rest, my future sister-in-law..."
Future sister-in-law...
Xie Ying blushed because of Xiao Zhenzhen's teasing. It took a while after the person left for her to return to normal.
Three days later.
Xiao Yao personally sent Xiao Zhenzhen, Zhou Yiqing, Yu Tong, Li Gao and others to the expedition against Yuecheng State at Xuanwu Gate.
People in the capital city lined the streets to watch the ceremony.
Xiao Yao personally straightened Xiao Zhenzhen's crown. Looking at the determined expression on the girl's face, Xiao Yao said, "This time, you must take care of yourself."
"Your Majesty, rest assured that I will fulfill my mission."
"it is good."
Xiao Yao responded, took a step back, looked at the army ready to go, and shouted: "Let's go."
"Yes, I accept your order."
Xiao Zhenzhen, Zhou Yiqing and others knelt down and then stood up. When Xiao Zhenzhen jumped up and climbed onto the horse's back, the people watching the ceremony instantly became excited.
Who said that their prince is a woman and has no aura?
How many men can compare with this heroic posture on horseback?
Seeing the people's eyes sparkling with admiration, Xiao Zhenzhen maintained a cold expression, her eyes were particularly firm and stern, it was worth it that she pestered Zhou Yiqing to practice horse riding for so long!
The expeditionary force left Beijing.
On the tower, Xie Yunchu and Xiao Chen watched everything below quietly. Xie Yunchu said, "It's fine if I, the emperor's husband, don't go, but why don't you, the emperor's brother, go to see him off?"
Xiao Chen said: "She is about to go to Yuecheng State to fight, and she came to the academy to pick a fight with me."
"Oh?"
Xie Yunchu was puzzled.
Xiao Chen looked at Xie Yunchu and said, "What are you all thinking?" Then he turned his sleeves and walked away.
Xie Yunchu quickly followed, "What do you mean by that?"
What do you mean?
It's nothing, Xiao Yao. Xiao Zhenzhen went to see him yesterday with the letters from his father and mother.
Asking about his marriage -
What a headache!
What made him even more surprised was that his heart seemed to be becoming more and more uneasy.
Every night, even if he was copying the Heart Sutra or chanting the Heart Purification Mantra, he would always dream of that extravagant scene every now and then.
In the past, it was just a vague scene, but now, he was directly rubbing Xie Ying's soft and slender waist, scaring him so much that he woke up in the middle of the night and could not fall asleep again.
"I think there's something wrong with you. You have dark circles under your eyes."
Xiao Chen paused, turned around and looked at Xie Yunchu, "You think so too?" What went wrong?
He even had his fortune told, and there were signs that his lover was attracted to him?
It's just - he really felt that Uncle Rong was a good person in every way, but the bad thing was that he didn't teach him all the good skills.
Otherwise, why couldn't he calculate himself?
"Uh..." Xie Yunchu looked at Xiao Chen, who was still the gentleman, but seemed sleep-deprived, and the worldly air of the world was becoming stronger and stronger.
"What?" Xiao Chen asked.
Xie Yunchu shook his head, "Nothing, I'm fine."
fine--
That must be because you, Xie Yunchu, have poor eyesight.
With a sigh, Xiao Chen saw that Xiao Yao's carriage had returned to the palace, while Xiao Zhenzhen, Zhou Yiqing and others were no longer visible. There were only countless soldiers following behind.
The dust all over the city seemed to be celebrating a triumphant return.
Xie Yunchu was quite happy to see Xiao Chen also heading towards the palace, "That's great, let's go play a couple of games of chess."
"I do not have time."
Xie Yunchu: “…” Okay, he’s free.
After the split, Xiao Chen went directly to the Imperial Observatory and went directly to Master Ding, "Master Ding, please tell me your fortune."
Master Ding looked at Xiao Chen's dark circles and pretended not to see them. "What do you want to calculate?"
"I have been feeling uneasy lately. Is this a disaster?"
"There is no calamity, but there is joy."
"Happy? What happiness? Where does happiness come from?"
Xiao Chen looked at the Dings and their sons, "Could it be a love disaster?"
Master Ding stroked his long white beard and pointed at Xiao Chen, unable to speak, "You!"
Xiao Chen stood there, not knowing what to say for a moment.
"I have really been taught too much by Changkong." Master Ding said, "Is it true that the four elements are empty?"
Xiao Chen frowned slightly. If it were in the past, he would be firm and determined that he would have no second thoughts.
But now——
I always dream about a woman in my dreams, which is fine, but in the past two nights, the woman's face has become clearer and clearer. Who else could it be but Xie Ying?
What a sin.
Master Ding saw his unreasonable look and said, "Let's go. All your misfortunes happened before you turned 18. After that, your life will be smooth sailing. You will get whatever you ask for. You have the best life."
"Thank you for your kind words, Master."
"Your uncle Rong and I are widows and orphans in this life, so don't learn from us."
Xiao Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he didn't get angry. He clasped his fists and said nothing, then left the Imperial Observatory in embarrassment.
Master Ding gave him a rare send-off, "Good boy, let nature take its course, don't seal your heart to what you love, and don't be too demanding about everything."
Xiao Chen nodded, "Master, please stay."
"Well, stay, stay, come back to see me more often."
"Yes."
After coming out of the Imperial Observatory, Xiao Chen went straight back to the academy.
The sound of Lang Lang reading could soothe his mood, and Xiao Chen gradually fell asleep to the sound of reading.
However, when he woke up, he felt hot all over, so he got up, turned on the light, and drank tea to quench his thirst.
Looking at the pitch-black outside, he could no longer tell what time it was. He could only see a wisp of smoke coming out of the incense burner.
He walked over, opened the lid of the incense burner, looked at the incense that was about to burn out, and simply put out all the incense.
Not only did the sandalwood fail to calm him down, but it made things even more outrageous. How could he become so beastly and almost kiss someone in his dream?
"Sword Five."
After a while, Jian Wu appeared outside the door. "Master, what do you want?"
Xiao Chen frowned and rubbed his forehead, "How long have I slept?"
"About two or three hours." Jian Wu replied.
Two or three hours, doesn’t that mean it will be dawn after waiting for two hours?
At this time, he couldn't sleep, so he had to meditate on the couch beside him and chant the mantra to purify his mind.
Maybe it took an incense stick or two to finally clear the heat from the body.
Xiao Chen understood.
The heat was clearly due to his sexual desire. In his dream, he had lust for the little girl.
"Master, it's time to go to court." Jian Wu's voice reminded.
Xiao Chen responded, "I know."
Although he spent most of his time in the academy, he still needed to attend court or go to the government office to handle some affairs every now and then, and he spent most of the rest of his time in the academy.
When you open your eyes.
Jianwu had already brought in the toiletries.
After washing, the master and servant rode their horses to the palace.
----
Xie Ying's health was almost failing. More than half a month had passed and Qing Chang'an still hadn't come to cancel the engagement, so she had no choice but to come to him again.
at this time.
Ministers in the palace have been leaving the court one after another. Some went directly back to their residences, while others went to their respective offices.
