The fairy is fierce
Chapter 45 Happy Enemies
Afternoon.
There were more boats coming and going at the dock of Linhefang, but the people getting off the boats were all in a hurry to go out of the city.
In the back alley of Tang's wine shop, Jiang Yi leaned against the wall, her arms around her chest, quietly waiting for Zuo Lingquan's arrival.
In a few days, she would select people to go to Jingluo Terrace. Although it was a matter of the immortals and had nothing to do with the secular court, Jiang Yi, as the eldest princess, could not help but pay attention to it.
Jiang Yi had always guessed that the frequent appearance of ferocious beasts in the capital was caused by Fuqi Mountain, which was good at taming beasts.
Fuqi Mountain was about to arrive in the capital, and it might make a fuss in such a major occasion, which would embarrass her and Qihuang Valley. She already knew that Zuo Lingquan led the team to patrol the mountains. If the ferocious beasts ran out to make trouble again, Zuo Lingquan would definitely be responsible for patrolling the mountains, so she had to remind them.
Originally, it was just a matter of one sentence, and Wu Qingwan could have passed it on, but Fuqi Mountain was just Jiang Yi's guess, and the "revenge" of the pendant last time had not been avenged. Jiang Yi thought about it and decided to meet him and prepare a "gift" for Zuo Lingquan.
As for why the meeting place was chosen at the Tang Family Tavern, the reason was more complicated, and Jiang Yi himself might not be able to explain it clearly.
After waiting for an unknown period of time, the sound of horse hooves finally came from the street.
Jiang Yi poked his eyes out from the corner of the wall and took a look - Zuo Lingquan, who was wearing a young man's robe, came from a distance and was looking around on the street.
Jiang Yi did not show up, but quickly hid back, standing silently by the window on the side of the tavern, listening attentively.
The horses soon stopped outside the tavern, and a familiar clear voice also sounded at the door of the tavern:
"Sister Tang?"
After a while, a response came from the backyard of the tavern:
"Xiao Zuo, you are here?! I have something to ask you."
"Really..."
...
"Smelly boy, where are you looking?"
"Oh... I'm looking at Tuanzi, Sister Tang, don't get me wrong."
"I almost forgot about this, little bird, why don't you come out?"
"Ji."
...
Jiang Yi crossed her arms across her chest, and her eyes showed some suspicion - judging from the tone, it was not just ordinary familiarity, but also a little annoyed, not like an ordinary friend...
She continued to listen with her ears tilted, and the clear sound of pouring wine came from the tavern, and Zuo Lingquan asked:
"Sister Tang, what do you want to ask?"
"It's the cultivation you talked about last time. I took a look at the book you gave me, and I couldn't understand it at all. It's about meridians and acupoints.
"This is indeed difficult to remember. Which part do you not understand? I'll tell Sister Tang where it is. ”
“Where is the Qugu acupoint? Point it out to me.”
“Qu…Qu…”
“Hmm?”
…
Jiang Yi’s eyes widened, and her expression was a little strange—the Qugu acupoint is about ‘five inches below the navel’, and Zuo Lingquan pointed to the woman’s place; the woman was also stupid, she dared to ask this, and if she knew, she would have to find a hole to crawl into...
What Jiang Yi didn’t expect was that Zuo Lingquan’s voice soon rang out in the tavern:
“The Qugu acupoint is right here. "
"Hey~ Why are you here..."
...
Jiang Yi's expression suddenly froze, the smile on her lips quickly disappeared, and her eyes became visibly cold.
How dare this guy point at the woman's place?
Jiang Yi's heart was burning with nameless fire, and she turned to the window without thinking, and said coquettishly:
"Zuo, you..."
In the tavern, Zuo Lingquan and Tang Jingyan sat face to face, lying on the table, looking at the book in the middle; the little bird Tuanzi squatted above the book, also looking down at the human portrait on it.
Zuo Lingquan was pointing at the red dot on the portrait with his finger. Hearing the sound, the two people and the bird raised their heads and looked at the window at the same time.
(⊙_⊙;) o_o(^_^)?
?!
Jiang Yi has been dealing with state affairs for many years, and his on-the-spot reaction is not bad. When he noticed something was wrong, his tone did not change, and the words he blurted out had changed to:
"Why did you come so fast?"
Very fierce.
Zuo Lingquan was a little puzzled, and looked around:
"Is it wrong for me to come and wait for you earlier? "
Jiang Yi stared, unable to find a reasonable explanation for the time being.
Tang Jingxun was startled, looked up, and found that it was the girl from last time. However, this time she was not wearing men's clothes, but a thin slim pleated skirt, with red lips and picturesque eyebrows. It was obvious that she was carefully dressed. At this time, the beauty looked angry, and she really had a different kind of beauty that overwhelmed all the beauties.
This girl, why does she speak without thinking, and all the meat grows on her chest? Tang Jingxun frowned and glanced at herself subconsciously; she was old enough, and must be more plump than a girl under 20 years old, and a hint of pride flashed in her eyes.
However, Tang Jingxun did not show these little thoughts, but just smiled and said:
"Oh~ rare guest, didn't the girl say she didn't want to come? Suddenly jumped out from the window, who are you trying to scare?"
Jiang Yi was looking for an opportunity to reveal what happened just now, and her face was slightly cold when she heard it:
"What does it have to do with you? "
Zuo Lingquan was somewhat helpless, and stood up and walked out of the tavern:
"It's good that you're here. Sister Tang, I'm going out first."
Tang Jingyan felt that the relationship between the two was not right, and was probably afraid that Zuo Lingquan would get into trouble, so she reminded him:
"Xiao Zuo, you are the future consort of the princess, you have to know the importance of some things, don't mess around and hurt yourself and others."
The reminder was also given to the girl at the window.
But when Jiang Yi heard this, her anger subsided a little, she pursed her lips and stopped talking, turned around and walked into the depths of the alley.
————
After a while
The alley is quiet and quiet, with no one in front or behind, except for a man and a woman, walking slowly side by side.
The man turned his head and looked at the woman, but the woman looked at the wall, leaving the man with the back of her head.
"Your Highness Princess, why did you suddenly get angry just now? Are you eavesdropping outside?"
Jiang Yi was indeed eavesdropping, but in front of Zuo Lingquan, how could she admit it and said calmly:
"I just happened to pass by and overheard it. You have nothing to do, teaching a city girl how to practice. She doesn't even know where the Qu Bone Point is, how can she learn it?"
"When I first started to practice, I didn't know it was normal. I pointed at the princess according to the picture and she became jealous..."
"Who's jealous?"
Jiang Yi stood up straighter and said in a very dissatisfied tone: "Zuo Lingquan, you are getting more and more arrogant. I am the Princess of Great Dan, and you are a consort who has never been married. You speak so arrogantly. You really think I can't cure it." you?"
Zuo Lingquan had been in contact with Jiang Yi for so many days, and he had already figured out her temper; he did not argue more about jealousy, and turned around to face Jiang Yi:
"The princess suddenly called me back, isn't it just to give me a hard time?"
Jiang Yi looked serious and maintained her momentum:
"You are my subordinate. Even if I call you back and reprimand you, so what? Are you not convinced?"
Zuo Lingquan narrowed his eyes slightly, raised his hand, supported it on the wall, and looked down at Jiang Yi.
The sudden movement forced Jiang Yi to lean against the wall. Although she was not short, she only reached the tip of Zuo Lingquan's nose. Leaning against the wall, she could only raise her face to look at the person. Jiang Yi naturally felt the pressure; the man's breath rushed towards her face, which also made her heart skip a beat.
Jiang Yi has an arrogant personality and is the eldest princess. She has always looked at people with her chin since she was a child. When have you ever experienced this posture?
She instinctively wanted to push Zuo Lingquan away, but when she moved her hands, she felt that she couldn't hit Zuo Lingquan. She was afraid of offending the guy and getting beaten again, so she dodged to the left.
What Jiang Yi didn't expect was that Zuo Lingquan would push even further and support the left wall with his other hand, blocking her in the middle.
"you!"
Jiang Yi couldn't get under her arm, so she raised her hand and pushed:
"You are so presumptuous, what are you doing?"
Zuo Lingquan blocked Jiang Yi and said provocatively:
"I'm not convinced, what can the princess do to me?"
? !
Jiang Yi looked up at Zuo Lingquan, who was a bit arrogant, and felt a little guilty. But she would definitely not show her guilty conscience. Her face turned cold and she said in a deep voice:
"Don't be too presumptuous. I didn't even ask you to settle the matter last time when you gave me the pendant. Do you really think I don't dare to punish you?"
"What's wrong with the pendant I gave you?"
"The ones you carved..."
"I just carved a picture that we will remember for a lifetime. If the princess doesn't like it, you can give it back to me."
Zuo Lingquan stretched out his hand and hooked it.
Jiang Yi naturally didn't give it. She snorted coldly, feeling a little disgusted:
"Would I like that kind of thing? I would have thrown it away a long time ago. If you dare to do it again next time...ah——"
Before he finished speaking, a woman's panicked scream came from the quiet alley.
When Jiang Yi stared and spoke, Zuo Lingquan opened her collar with his fingers at lightning speed, pinched the tether under the collar, and lifted it up gently.
The red lanyard was lifted up, and the bamboo-green pendant hidden between the two groups slipped out of the collar, revealing its original appearance.
Jiang Yi felt her chest was empty. She was so shocked that she hurriedly hugged the skirt of her clothes with her arms. She opened her mouth and looked at Zuo Lingquan in disbelief. She obviously didn't expect that this guy would dare to take action!
Zuo Lingquan had just seen the pendant tether under Jiang Yi's neck. At this time, all the stolen goods were confirmed, and his momentum naturally increased, and he joked with a smile:
"The princess didn't like it, so did she throw it away?"
"you……"
Jiang Yi's face was as red as blood, her shoulders and eyelashes were trembling slightly, and she wanted to curse a few words, but the embarrassment of being caught red-handed made her even more embarrassed.
Jiang Yi wanted to pull off the pendant and throw it away, but doing so was tantamount to hiding her ears and stealing the bell. She held it in for a long time before gritting her teeth and holding the bamboo-green pendant, and said coldly:
"If you dare to hit me, I will remember it for the rest of my life. I keep this thing with me to remind myself at all times... Do you think I like this crap?"
Zuo Lingquan nodded slightly: "That's it."
Jiang Yi saw the smile in Zuo Lingquan's eyes. With her arrogant personality, she could not bear such grievance. But she couldn't beat Zuo Lingquan. This guy dared to pull the pendant from her lapel, and he might even dare to do other unscrupulous things...
Jiang Yi gritted her teeth for a long time, but she still rarely chose to swallow her anger, turned around and walked out.
But Zuo Lingquan had no intention of letting her go and raised his hand to block the road:
"The princess called me here just to show off the pendant I gave her, right?"
Jiang Yi paused, clenched her fists, suppressed all the emotions in her heart, hesitated for a moment and said coldly:
"I'm here to give you a warning. Fuqishan will arrive in the capital tomorrow. If my guess is true, they may release ferocious beasts to cause trouble on such a grand occasion, embarrassing me and Qihuang Valley. What have you done recently? When patrolling the mountains, you have an important position, so don’t make any mistakes.”
Zuo Lingquan nodded seriously: "Thank you princess for reminding me, I will definitely be careful."
Jiang Yi pursed her lips, maybe because she was really angry, she took out an object from her arms and threw it at Zuo Lingquan:
"It is not a gentleman to refuse to retaliate. If you dare to throw this away, I will kill you."
After saying that, he turned around and ran away, as if he was afraid of being caught by Zuo Lingquan.
Zuo Lingquan raised his hand to catch it, looked down and saw a jade pendant lying in the palm of his hand.
There was a picture engraved on the front of the jade pendant - on a rainy street, a gorgeous female warrior stood holding an umbrella, and under the eaves next to her, stood a... a... half-orc?
Zuo Lingquan blinked his eyes and looked at the man who looked like Zhu Bajie on the jade pendant. He knew who it was without thinking.
He rubbed it with his fingers twice and nodded slightly: "Good craftsmanship."
Jiang Yi ran a long way before she dared to stop and look back; she obviously wanted to see Zuo Lingquan getting angry after getting the pendant and being helpless.
But what she didn't expect was that Zuo Lingquan was not angry at all, and even hung the jade pendant around his waist and waved goodbye:
"Princess, you are thoughtful."
?
Jiang Yi was stunned and a little confused, and wanted to ask "Why are you not angry?".
But it was probably useless to ask this question. Jiang Yi was silent for a long time, and could only stare at Zuo Lingquan unwillingly, and ran out of the alley with heavy steps...
