That Person In That River and Lake

  Chapter 262 Her Royal Highness, Traveling with Chang'an

When he heard someone calling softly, Gu Qingci turned his head subconsciously. A woman pulled the curtain and smiled slightly. Her red lips were lightly parted like an oriole. He saw the woman at a glance.

  Gu Qingci turned around, walked over slowly, and said: "I have seen Her Royal Highness."

This person is the Eldest Princess, and she is also the Changle Princess who is unknown in the rumors and entrusted to an inhumane person. During the imperial banquet today, Gu Qingci saw this Eldest Princess. He has a deep image. Since the consort was abolished three years ago, Princess Changle has been living in seclusion. Today, she took a special look at Princess Changle. The look of sadness in her eyes was impressive.

  Tang Lingxian looked at Gu Qingci with a strange look on his face. His eyes were like crystals. He slowly got off the carriage, bowed a blessing, and said softly, "Young Master Gu, are you planning to go back to Lantian County?"

  Gu Qingci nodded and said: "I'm going to see the night view of Chang'an City, and then go back to Lantian County to rest for a while."

  Tang Lingxian feels different from Tang Yun. Tang Yun is a kind of pride revealed from the bottom of her heart, while Tang Lingxian is indeed generous and sad, but very contradictory, making people feel quiet. When she smiles, she is very kind.

   "But," Tang Lingxian asked: "Young Master Gu, three days later, the canonization will be carried out, don't you want to prepare?"

   Gu Qingci defeated Wu Yu, and is about to go to the Black Territory as the leader of the Three Kingdoms Alliance. It is impossible for the Xia Kingdom court to let Gu Qingci go alone. There will be some ceremonial explanations and things that should be canonized.

  Gu Qingci shook his head and said: "There is nothing to prepare for, just receive the decree when the time comes. I am also quite tired these days, so I just use this time to cultivate."

  Tang Lingxian smiled slightly, and said, "Young Master Gu is really in a good mood."

  Gu Qingci smiled politely, didn't say anything else, and asked: "If Your Highness has nothing else to do, Qingci will leave first."

   "Young Master Gu," Tang Lingxian said, "I haven't been to Chang'an City for a long time. If you are not busy, you may wish to accompany me for a walk. We will also be on the same road later, going to Lantian County together."

   Gu Qingci asked in confusion: "Your Highness is going to Lantian County?"

  Tang Lingxian smiled and said, "Speaking of which, Mr. Gu and I are neighbors. I live in the manor in Xijiao Mountain opposite Bi'an Lake."

"Oh," Gu Qingci suddenly realized, and said: "It turns out that it belongs to you, Your Highness. If I had known earlier, I should have paid a visit, Your Highness, don't blame me!"

   Tang Lingxian narrowed her eyes suddenly and said, "I'm afraid, even if Mr. Gu knew that I was there, he wouldn't go there, would he?"

"Uh..." Gu Qing was speechless, and he was politely answering. Given his character, he really didn't know how to go. He has been in the capital for so long, and except for the few people who agreed to visit, Gu Qing Ci really didn't visit any of them.

  Seeing Gu Qingci's embarrassing appearance, Tang Lingxian suddenly covered her mouth and laughed, and said slowly: "Don't blame Mr. Gu, I just said it casually, so why don't we go for a walk now?"

  Gu Qingci hesitated for a moment, nodded and said: "Then let's go for a walk together!"

  Tang Lingxian smiled slightly, turned her head and said to the maids and guards: "You guys just wait here for me, you don't need to follow."

  The personal servant girl was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said: "Your Highness, this city is too chaotic, and there are so many people, it's better to let the guards follow you to be safe."

   Tang Lingxian shook her head and said, "With Mr. Gu here, what else can happen?"

  At night, Chang'an City is full of excitement.

  The lights all over the street illuminated the flat bluestone slabs like daytime, and there were many people walking on the street. Gu Qingci and Tang Lingxian walked the street together for a long time, but they never spoke.

After walking for a while, he felt a bit dull. He originally thought that he could go for a quiet stroll alone, but he didn't expect a princess to appear on the way. After hesitating for a while, he still said: "Your Highness, the weather is too dark this time." It's getting late, otherwise, let's go back to Lantian first!"

  Tang Lingxian confirmed it, and said, "Is Mr. Gu so unwilling to take a stroll with me?"

  Gu Qingci shook his head and said: "Your Highness misunderstood, it's just that I'm a little tired, it's my good fortune to be able to walk with Your Highness."

  Tang Lingxian sighed, and said: "Speaking of which, I haven't wandered around this city for several years."

  Gu Qingci calmly said: "Actually, Chang'an is very close to Lantian County. If His Highness wishes, you can come anytime."

  Tang Lingxian sighed, and said, "It's hard for those who are just traveling together to be Mr. Wushuang again."

   Gu Qingci didn't speak, he didn't understand what Princess Changle wanted to do.

   "Forget it, I'm a little tired too," Tang Lingxian said slowly, "Then let's go back."

Looking at Tang Lingxian's figure, she felt a little desolate. This aura that shouldn't appear on a princess appeared, but it happened. Gu Qingci shook his head slightly. Thinking of the things passed down in the world, he felt that this princess was carrying too many things. .

   Traveling together all the way, riding in Tang Lingxian's carriage.

  Guessing each other speechlessly, until the carriage arrived at Bi'an Lake, it stopped slowly. When Gu Qingci got off the carriage, he saluted and said, "Thank you, Your Highness!"

  Tang Lingxian raised the curtain of the car and looked at the young man in white in the night. After a long while, she said softly, "If you are free, how about you come to my manor as a guest?"

  Gu Qingci nodded and said: "I am destined to be a neighbor with the princess, so I should visit."

  …

   A servant opened the door, and Gu Qingci entered slowly. As soon as he entered, Ouyang Muhua suddenly jumped off the roof, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Hey, that was Princess Changle just now, right?"

   "Yes," Gu Qingci said, "I happened to meet in Chang'an City, and we came back together. She lives in the western suburb opposite."

  Ouyang Muhua hesitated for a while, and said: "Brother, let me tell you, you should stay away from this princess."

  Gu Qingci frowned and said, "Why, is there any problem with this princess?"

  Ouyang Muhua shook his head and said: "There is no other meaning. Although this Changle is alone now, he is a married person after all. I know you don't have much thoughts about her, but people's words are scary."

  Gu Qingci also felt quite reasonable, saying: "Don't worry, I will pay attention."

Ouyang Muhua took out a carrot, took a bite, and sighed: "It's a pity that Changle is such a beautiful woman, with a good temperament and a good person, but I met that bastard, and it's not nice to meet people... Oh, yes , Brother Gu, pay attention, today I saw people from Cihang Jianzhai appearing in Lantian County!"

  …

  The carriage slowly headed towards the western suburbs. Sitting in the carriage, Tang Lingxian sighed suddenly and said leisurely, "Is there really such a similar person in the world?"

   This chapter is really not water, it is a foreshadowing for the future, which is very important.
