This night, when Xiao Yi returned to Bixiaotang, it was already halfway through.
Nangong Yue had already taken Xiao Xiaoyu back to his courtyard from Listening to the Rain Pavilion. As soon as Xiao Yi entered the house, he heard a burst of laughter belonging to the baby: "Giggle..."
Xiao Yi pursed her lips, and the smelly boy was still awake.
The next moment, I heard a delicate cat meow, "Meow--", Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows in disbelief. The cat meow sounded a bit ear-eared, and there was another kitten in their house?
Thinking, Xiao Yi picked up the curtain and entered the inner room, and just heard "Meow" again.
When the four eyes stare at each other, the dark-eyed cat in the inner room reveals a strange color, and the eyes are half drooping.
It turned out to be this cat that had been raised for eight years!Xiao Yi's mood suddenly became brisk, and he became a cat.
"Meow--" The voice was beautiful, but it could not hide the jokes.
Nangong Yue glared at him and cleared his throat, explaining: "I'm teaching Brother Yu to speak. An Niang said, I want to learn more animal sounds from children and teach him to know things at home. These simple overlapping words make it easier for him to learn to imitate."
Xiao Yi strode to the bed, bowed her head and kissed her in the corner of her mouth, and said with a smile: "That's not easy, let's just hug Xiaotang and Xiaobai!" Anyway, the two cats were idle too. It's good to be idle and hugged to play with the stink boy.
"Don't bother with Xiaojue and Xiaobai." Nangong Yue's mouth twitched, and according to his teaching method, she was really afraid that Brother Yu would treat herself as a cat.
Xiao Yi also wanted to discuss the theory with Nangong Yue, but he saw a small round head suddenly inserted between the two of them, and then "Bao", the small meat group grabbed the mother's clothes with two meat claws and struggling to hold his head in the mother's chin. There was a drooling kiss on it.
"Giggle..." He seemed to have completed a feat and smiled innocently.
The two adults were dumbfounded, Nangong Yue touched her chin in a silly manner, the baby took the initiative to kiss her, this is the first time.
The child's father narrowed his eyes, his eyes became dangerous.
He knew that it would be okay to have a stinky boy.
Today is to kiss the chin, is it necessary to kiss the mouth tomorrow?
Xiao Yi's eyes grew deeper and deeper. Nangong Yue, who had come back to her mind, immediately realized that it was not good and hurriedly picked up the little guy, and said with a smile: "It's getting late... Brother Yu, you should go to sleep. "
Of course, Xiao Yi knew her intentions, and she gave her a slanted look, and took Xiao Xiaoyu from her hands, "I'll come."
Nangong Yue smiled as Xiao Yi walked around the house holding a little man similar to him, with the charming peach blossom eyes carrying the kindness that he might not even find himself.
This is what she dreamed of being with her big and small cats...
The night was getting deeper, and Xiao Yu, who had always been coaxing, slept in his father's arms for a while, and Xiao Yi carefully put the little guy on his small bed.
After that, he entered the clean room to bathe and change clothes.
The sound of whirling water soon came from inside. Nangong Yue, who was sitting by the bed, carefully helped the little guy to tuck the corner of the bed, and the eyes were half drooping. When the smile at the corner of the mouth was put away, her expression calmed down.
After Xiao Yi came out of the clean room, she looked at her beautiful and quiet profile and couldn't help but stop, the room was quiet.
Su Yu, Nangong Yue suddenly asked: "Ai, are you going to go out again?"
Xiao Yi never avoids Nangong Yue in her work. During this time, he and Guan Yu Bai's busy nature are naturally also seen by her, knowing that another battle is coming...
Xiao Yi, who was still wet with moisture, walked to her side and sat down. She stretched her arms into her arms and kissed her at the top of her hair. She said softly, "Xiao Bai will first Go, I can stay with you for more days."
Nangong Yue rubbed in his arms like a young beast, and began to wonder what she could do for Xiao Yi.
"Ayue, don't worry!" Xiao Yi lifted her chin, bowed her head to face her eyes, and said affirmatively, "This battle will end before the first birthday banquet! Even if the emperor wants to use the Zhennan royal palace, It depends on whether we are willing, do you say that?!"
He threw a wink with a smile and smiled brilliantly, but there was undoubted arrogance in his tone, and the obsidian-like eyes gleamed in a dim candlelight with almost indirect light.
Nangong Yue stared at him in a daze, unable to help her face.
She believed him!
Of course she believed him!
Her Ayi has always said what she will do!There is nothing he cannot do!
The eyes of the two were glued together, the two faces slowly approached, and the breath and heartbeat of each other slowly merged into one...
The night was quiet, and the darkness was thick like fog, until the dawn of dawn swept away the darkness.
It's dawn again.
Early in the morning, the Luoyuecheng battalion awoke with the sound of a trumpet. The Xuanjia Army reorganized under the command of Yao Lianghang, the flag flew in the wind, and 10,000 Xuanjia Army soldiers were arranged in a neat square , The uniform sound when shouting is thunderous and shocking.
There is a saying: "The soldiers and horses do not move, the grain and grass first", at the same time, the hay soldiers, armored equipment, etc. needed by these 10,000 soldiers are also nervously preparing for dispatch...
This series of movements made the Luoyue City Great Camp, and even the entire Luoyue City commotion. Soon, Luoyue City learned that the emperor came to the South Xinjiang to borrow troops, whether it was a trafficker or a nobleman. Talking about this matter, Pingyang Hou in the other court also heard the news, and he was amazed.
Pingyang Hou originally thought that Xiao Yi just promised to borrow troops yesterday, and then there must be a post move, or simply delay it for reasons... I did not expect Xiao Yi to make such a big move, it seems that he really wants to help the court to send troops to the West Xinjiang. .
This recognition actually made Pingyang Hou even more anxious, almost unable to swallow, and repeatedly wondered what Xiao Yi wanted to do in his heart. What benefit did this have for Xiao Yi?
In the afternoon of the same day, Pingyang Hou came to Bixiao Hall again.
This time, he met Xiao Yi in Shu Zhi Hall very smoothly, no embarrassment, no delay. Since arriving in Luoyue City yesterday, everything went smoothly so that Pingyang Hou did not feel like real things. Smoothly, Pingyang Hou Yue felt terrified. This is really not like Xiao Shizi's usual style!
Pingyang Hou only spent a tea kung fu in Bixiaotang, and was sent a few words by Xiao Yi, and returned empty-handed.As of now, the situation is not controlled by him, and he can only comfort himself in his heart: at least this Xiao Shizi is now willing to borrow troops, he finally has an explanation to the emperor!
As for the future, I can only watch one step at a time...
In the next few days, people from Zhennan Wangfu and Bixiaotang came and went. They were very lively. From time to time, the generals of the southern Xinjiang army visited the door. Yes, and some, like Yao Lianghang, expressed their indignation and expressed their will to follow the prince of death...
Various preparations for the expedition were carried out in an orderly manner. On August 13, Yao Lianghang rushed to Feixia Mountain with 10,000 Xuanjia Army.
For the others in the city, since the emperor's borrowing of soldiers has become a boat, it is gone, and for Bixiaotang, this is only the beginning...
Since then, Xiao Yi has been busy, often leaving early and returning late, either to go to the military camp with Guanyu Bai, or to stay in Qingyunwu. Sometimes, Nangong Yue, who has fallen asleep, does not know when he will come back. I can only feel from Yu Wen on the pillow in the morning that she was not alone last night, right, of course she was not alone, and Yu Yuer.
As long as she looks at the little guy’s innocent and cute face, Nangong Yue feels that she can forget all her worries, and she will not worry about some things.
On this day, Nangong Yue instructed Bai Hui to send the meal and herbal tea to Qingyunwu.
She stayed in the west room with Xiao Xiaoyu herself, and since the little guy learned to climb, Nangong Yue made people spread a Persian carpet in the west room, and the energetic little boy crawled in it... …
No, after the little guy climbed a circle, he returned to his mother's side, and a chubby little hand grabbed her skirt and declared his victory "babbled".
The child is really wonderful, as if yesterday was a little monkey with wrinkled cheeks and only crying, and now he is alive and well...When Ai returns from the expedition, will the little guy not recognize his father? What?
"Brother Yu, it's called Dad." Nangong Yue looked at Xiao Xiaoyu's black and white eyes and said seriously.If you can hear the little guy call him dad before Ai is out, Ai will be happy.
It's a pity that Xiao Xiaoyu didn't understand the bitterness of her mother-in-law, and felt that she was giggled with a compliment and laughed twice, and crawled towards the rattle not far away...
At this moment, a crisp and familiar female voice sounded from outside the curtain: "Shizi Princess..."
The sound did not arrive.
At the next moment, I saw Lily picking in the curtain, holding a female doll in her arms.
"Slave slave and Chuxiao are here to please you."
Behind Lily was also a magpie and a thrush. They all looked at the female doll in Lily's arms.
Lily's female doll was just one year old at the beginning of the day, and her thin hair was combed into two small balls. She was wearing a big red jacket, carved with jade, and a pair of black and white eyes blinked smartly. .
In the past few months, Nangong Yue has finally re-selected the nymph. This time Lily and Chuxiao don’t have to stay in Bixiaotang anymore. They can go home every night and can rest for four days a month.Nangong Yue's heart was finally put down.
After Lily entered the house, she placed her daughter on the carpet. Xiaochu was only one year old. She naturally would not salute, but she obediently gave her a kneeling prostrate gesture, which was a kowtow.
The little girl was so clever that she was at the mercy of her mother without crying. Although she could see this scene almost every day, they still couldn't be more tired of magpies and thrushes.
Queer Nunjun could not help but ridicule: "Concubine Shizi, did you say that Chuxiao was wrong with other children's children, and his appearance and temperament are not like lilies at all."
Lily sighed and flattened her mouth and said: "Have you never heard of his daughter Xiaofu?...Sister-in-law, obviously a slave-in-law conceived in October..." As she said, she couldn't help complaining, but she was proud. Yangyang.With such an obedient and obedient daughter, Lily is naturally proud.
While the adults were talking, Xiao Xiaoyu had flexibly climbed back again and greeted his little friend "baby", and then handed her the rattle in her hand.
At the beginning of the day, Xiaoxiao also responded with a "babble", shaking the rattle and shaking it. In the regular sound of the rattle, the two little guys spoke a language that the adults could not even understand, and laughed...
The two chubby little dumplings are still a carefree age, eating, drinking and having fun every day.
In the sound of rattles, Bai Hui came back with a dignified expression.
Nangong Yue in the house saw Bai Hui's expression and realized that she was wrong. Lily immediately took the rattle in her daughter's hands and then deliberately covered her face to attract the attention of the two little guys.
Xixi soon became quiet.
"Concubine Shizi," Bai Hui quickly walked to Nangong Yue, and then took out a white jade ring embellished with a wishful knot from her belt. Her hands were presented to Nangong Yue.
Hearing the words "Hong Ting Pavilion", Nangong Yue's face changed slightly, and Queer blurted out and said, "That's not green..."
She swallowed the last word without saying a word.
They only heard the name of this red silk pavilion, and it is one of the most famous blue towers in Luoyue City... This relationship with the blue towers will naturally not be a good thing.
Bai Hui continued to say: "After the red silk pavilion sent this ring to the Huishuitang, the Huistang found that the name of the big girl was engraved on the jade and called the slave-in-law..."
Sister Fei's name engraved?!Nangong Yue's eyes were instantly deep like the sea, reaching for the jade ring.
Although this white jade ring is common, Nangong Yue can be sure that this is Xiao Fei. The Ruyi knot on Huan Pei was taught by Xiao Fei.
She still remembered that Xiao Fei accidentally dropped a jade pendant when she went to the Great Buddha Temple to remove Xiao Fang's clothes in June, but Xiao Fei said that there was no mark on the jade pendant, let alone Xiao Fei's name.
These two months have passed, this jade piece actually fell to the blue building...
Nangong Yue took this white jade ring pendant carefully and looked it up carefully. This ring pendant was carved from fine sheep fat jade. It looks extremely concise, with only a few curvy clouds, and the back of the ring pen is carved. Two words: "Xiao Fei".
Nangong Yue's fingers rubbed on the lettering, the tentacles were rough, and they didn't seem to be polished.
She moved her heart and looked carefully at the lines of the moire, compared with the strokes of the lettering.
The former is delicate and smooth, but the latter is rough and stiff, it seems that it is not like the handwriting of the same person.
Nangong Yue's eyes flickered, countless thoughts flashed in his heart, and finally took a deep breath and commanded: "Baihui, you let Zhu Xing go to the red silk pavilion, ask a clear question."
Bai Hui immediately retired, followed Nangong Yue and told Queer: "Quer, you go to Yuebiju, and ask the elder girl what texture of the jade pendant she lost at the Great Buddha Temple. Is there a name on it... It said that someone picked up a piece of jade and returned to the palace."
"Yes, Princess Shizi. You can rest assured that the slave-maid will not let these pickled things pollute the ears of the big girl." Queer also led away.
"Yeah!" Suddenly, someone pulled Lanan Gongyue's skirt, she looked down, Xiao Xiaoyu didn't know when to climb beside her, tried hard to raise her little arm, tried to hand the windmill in her hand she was.
"Is Brother Yu this for me?" Nangong Yue pointed to him and to himself. A warm stream crossed her heart: her brother Yu would already care about her.
The little guy smiled without hesitation, his eyes laughed like a crescent moon, and turned the heart of being a mother into a river of spring.
After a while, Queer came back first, and she said with a straight face: "The Princess of the World, the eldest girl said that the jade she dropped was a white jade ring. It was a good sheep fat jade. The jade was engraved with a cloud pattern and decorated with her own. The wishful knot."
This is indeed the jade wear that Xiao Fei lost.
When Xinghe was at night and the lantern was at the beginning, news came from Zhu Xing.
It was said that there was a regular named Jiujiu Lu who was staying in the Honggongge for half of the year. In the previous few days, he was staying in the Honggongge for another night, but he couldn't afford any money. I temporarily mortgaged this white jade ring to the old bustard, saying that it would be redeemed in two days.The old bustard was greedy for money. As soon as he saw that the white jade ring was worth a lot, at least a thousand or two silvers, he accepted it, thinking that Lu Jiujiu would redeem it.Who knows, after waiting a few days and not seeing Lu Jiujiu coming again, Lao Yuanyuan wanted to sell this ring, but found that Xiao Fei's name was engraved on it. Came to the palace.
After listening to Bai Hui's words of Zhu Xing, Nangong Yue played with the white jade ring while meditating: This jade pendant should indeed be the one lost by Fei Fei, but Fei Fei's jade pendant had no name on it. But there are more names, and they were left in the blue building, apparently someone deliberately did it... Did the other party want to ruin the reputation of Sister Fei?
A sharp flash flashed through Nangong's eyes, saying: "Baihui, you let Zhu Xing continue to investigate, but don't fight the grass and startle the snake."
"Yes, Princess of the World." Bai Hui led her life away, and her slender figure quickly disappeared into the night.
The sky outside seems to be darker, but Xiao Yi hasn't come back. The more busy he is with the official Bai in these days, the more Nangong Yue feels that the upcoming battle is probably not easy...
The more this time, the more calm you are.
"Thrush, you go and let the small kitchen prepare for supper, and send it to Qingyunwu for Shizi Ye and An Yihou." Nangong Yue ordered.
After the thrush exited, the room was quiet, and the dim candlelight was softly sprinkled on the quiet sleeping face of the little guy. Xiao Xiaoyu was in a good sleep. The father and son were different lives, and his father was not so lucky.
In Qingyunwu, the official Mandarin Bai Zheng randomly disturbed the sand table, eliminating the traces left by them, and then looked up at Xiao Yi sitting opposite him, saying, "Yao Lianghang has been away for ten days... ...Ai, I plan to leave the next day."
During the talk, he came over diligently, helped his son to remove the obtrusive sand table, and gave them tea.Xiao Si looked at the popular tea for Xiao Yi, and jumped out of the window.
Xiao Yi stretched his waist and smiled, "Xiao Bai, we will be free when we send off the banquet. When we return to victory, we will hold a wind banquet and a celebration banquet. How about having a good time?"
He spoke casually, but he was full of confidence. When the two looked at each other, there was a smile, a confident smile in the corner of the white mouth of the official language.
Along with this, the temperament of Guanyu Bai also changed, from warm to fierce. Even if he was still wearing a Confucian shirt, he was not a Confucian, not a counselor, but a warrior!A warrior who fights against the frontier and defends the country!
"We will definitely win this battle." Mandarin said slowly and firmly.
The official language Bai Xin knows whether to win Xiye, for Nanjiang, there is no substantive benefit, even for the current situation in Nanjiang, it is more harm than good, but Xiao Yi, in order to compensate his wish, is not at all He chose to go to war intentionally, even if Xiao Yi knew that this war was defeated, his accumulation in southern Xinjiang in the past few years would probably be defeated.
Therefore, in this battle, you must win!
Not only for himself, but also for trusting his Xiao Yi, there are tens of thousands of generals in the southern Xinjiang!
Therefore, in the past few days, he and Xiao Yi have been doing sand table deduction and public opinion analysis. The two have conceived as much as possible of all the situations they will encounter, how to adapt, and then what kinds of coping methods the enemy may have, and then We must come up with strategies for these coping styles...
Xiao Yizhen felt that he had been using his brain for the rest of his life.
Now that everything is ready, why not be afraid?!
Xiao Yi blinked with a smile and said, "Xiao Bai, you can relax. When the battle comes back, my stinky boy will be called the righteous father. Just prepare the red envelope..."
In the dark night, I only heard Xiao Yi's continuous voice, and unconsciously resolved the suppressed atmosphere before the storm...
