The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 89 Qingluan wants to go see the lanterns with his cousin

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Li Ling returned early and saw that Jingshu was busy packing his luggage for a long journey. He glanced at the busy figure of his young wife, walked up and said with a smile, "Thank you for your hard work, Madam."

Jing Shu raised her eyes and glanced at him, then asked with a dull face: "How long will your trip last?"

Li Ling replied: "If everything goes well, it will take more than a month to come back. If not, it will take two or three months."

It takes so long! They have never been separated since they got married.

When Jing Shu heard this, she felt sad.

Li Ling pulled her over and saw that his little wife's face was slumped and her starry eyes were wet. He held her little face and said to her: "I will come back as soon as possible."

Jingshu broke away from him, turned her face away, and pouted: "You can go as long as you like, I don't care about you."

Li Ling sighed, held his wife in his arms again, and said patiently: "It's not that I don't want to take you, it's just that this journey is too difficult. After leaving Zhennanguan, it's all mountain roads, and you have to walk through the Gobi."

, you really can’t bear it.”

He gently kissed his wife's eyes and said, "Besides, this is business, so it would be inappropriate for me to take my family out with me."

"Just rest at home and wait for me." Seeing that his wife still had her eyes downcast, he held her in his arms and murmured in her ear: "I know you can't let me go, so how can I be willing to leave you?

."

Jing Shu hugged him away and said with a dull face: "Don't be so sentimental. Who can't bear to leave you? I just miss my grandfather's family and want to see them."

She lowered her eyes and said with a hint of grievance, "I haven't seen them in five or six years."

Li Ling leaned over and glanced at her aggrieved little face: "Don't worry, when the five cities of Gunzhou are recovered, the road will be clear. I will definitely take you to Chaozhou."

Jing Shu snorted coldly: "How could it be so easy to take it back?"

She sighed leisurely: "My grandma is already eighty years old. Last year, my uncle wrote a letter saying that her mind is often confused now. I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to see her again in her lifetime."

Li Ling held her in his arms and said, "Don't worry, this time the Holy Emperor sent me to Nanjun to check the city defense there, with the intention of taking back the five cities of Gunzhou."

She looked at her wife and said: "As soon as the Holy One gives the order to send out troops, I will ask for orders to go to the front line. After driving out all the southern barbarians, I will take you back to Chaozhou to visit your grandmother."

Seeing that his young wife was still unhappy, Li Ling said calmly: "Let's go and clean up. I'll accompany you to watch the lanterns."

The two of them packed up and left Qingfeng Garden. Before they reached the second gate, they saw Qingluan walking towards them from a distance.

Jing Shu subconsciously glanced at Li Ling. Li Ling's originally gentle face turned cold again, and his brows gradually furrowed.

Qingluan slowly walked up to the two of them, glanced at Li Ling, then lowered his head, like a child who had done something wrong, and called like a mosquito: "Cousin."

He looked pitifully aggrieved.

Li Ling nodded expressionlessly and asked, "Are you going to grandma's place?"

When Qingluan saw that Li Ling was finally willing to pay attention to her, she slowly raised her head: "Grandma just ordered someone to come over for dinner." She looked at Li Ling eagerly, and then looked at Jing Shu beside her: "Cousin, cousin

Sister-in-law is going out?"

Seeing that Li Ling was silent, Jing Shu replied: "Go out for a walk."

Qingluan said lightly: "I forgot, today is the Lantern Festival, the city should be very lively." As she said that, she smiled bitterly: "It's really embarrassing to say that I have never seen the folk in my life.

What exactly is the Hungry Ghost Festival like?"

This means I want to follow.

It was a rare occasion to enjoy two people's time with Li Ling, and Jing Shu didn't want this weird princess who was always thinking about her man to follow her.

After listening to Qingluan's words, she said nothing but looked at her husband beside her.

Li Ling replied calmly: "Grandma is still waiting for you to have dinner with me. Cousin, please come over quickly."

With that said, Li Ling was about to walk away. When he saw the two of them were about to leave, Qingluan quickly stopped them and said directly to Li Ling: "I also want to see the lanterns. Can my cousin take me with you?"

Li Ling glanced at her doubtfully and replied with two words: "No."

Qingluan's thin shoulders rose slightly again, and his voice was choked with sobs. He stared at Li Ling and asked, "Why?"

Without waiting for Li Ling's answer, she continued: "In the past, whenever I asked my cousin for anything, you readily agreed. What happened now? Why do you treat me like this?"

As she said that, she looked at Jing Shu aside, with viciousness in her eyes caused by jealousy, and said bitterly: "Is it because of this woman?"

Li Ling suppressed his anger and shouted coldly at Qingluan: "What are you talking about?"

Qingluan's tears fell again. She looked at Li Ling and asked, "Am I wrong? My cousin treated me so well before and always protected me. Ever since you got involved with this woman, you have started to treat me coldly."

Come on, did she encourage you to do this? Why is this woman worthy of you doing this? What are you doing for..."

"Shut up." Looking at Qingluan who was losing control, Li Ling finally couldn't bear it anymore and yelled angrily.

Qingluan's tears welled up and she looked at Li Ling sobbing.

Perhaps she had already seen Li Ling's harsh words that day, but this time she was not frightened and did not know what to do. She still stood there and cast her wet eyes at Li Ling without any scruples.

Li Ling suppressed the anger in his heart, sighed slightly, and said to her in as calm a tone as possible: "You should understand your identity. As a princess, how can you go out at will, even stay in this mansion? Since you came

Yes, many more nursing homes have been placed to protect your safety."

He paused and then said: "I will protect you, that is my responsibility. However, now that you have grown up, you should be sensible. Don't always act like a child and lose the dignity of a princess."

After saying that, Li Ling said to Chao Lu who was beside Qingluan: "Send the princess to Anxi Hall, Haosheng will take good care of her."

After saying these words, Li Ling took Jing Shu's hand and left without looking back.

Until the two of them disappeared, Qingluan still stood there blankly, sobbing and sobbing.

Chaolu stepped forward and said helplessly: "Princess, didn't you say yesterday that you would slowly win back the Crown Prince's heart? Why are you confused again now? What will the Crown Prince think of you if you say such things?"

Qingluan wiped her tears with a handkerchief and sighed longly: "Now my cousin is completely fascinated by the Shen family, and I also know that this matter cannot be rushed." As she said this, she couldn't help but shed tears again.

Lai: "It's just that when I saw my cousin with her, I couldn't control myself."

Chaolu coaxed and persuaded: "Okay, okay, don't cry. Just don't do this again next time."

Qingluan said leisurely: "I have to find a chance to talk to my cousin."

Chaolu helped her gather her cloak: "It's cold in the snow. If the princess is not in the mood, I will send someone to fetch the old lady. Let's go back."

Qingluan turned his head and replied: "I can't go back. The more I do at this time, the more I have to make my grandmother feel distressed. I don't believe that I, my direct granddaughter, can't compare to that outsider, the Shen family."

She snorted coldly, gritted her silver teeth and said: "Even if my grandmother doesn't make the decision for me, there is still my father. Even if I don't like my father, I am still his flesh and blood. If my grandmother can't count on me, I won't be able to wait until I get married."

After the ceremony, I will just ask my father to give me the decree to marry her."

The power of love is indeed great. Chaolu never expected that this fragile little princess who always cried would show unprecedented tenacity in fighting for the heir apparent of the Li family. She said happily: "If the princess can really be strong,

Don’t worry about defeating that Shen family.”

Speaking of Jingshu, Qingluan couldn't help but gritted his teeth: "Huh! What a Shen! Let's see."

Recently, a lot of comments on articles have been pulled down. Yesterday, I was chatting with a few bosses about this matter, and I heard that some people deliberately dropped the comments. Everyone has encountered it.

It’s really incredible!

Why is this so? There are thousands of good articles to read, just don’t like passing by them.

Ah Que also heard that some people with ulterior motives used trumpets to deliberately send messages to other big writers to lower their popularity. Oh! This... this can only be said to be sinister people in the world.

.

Baozi, who really likes this article, hopes that everyone will move their fingers and give Ah Que a "wuxinghaoping" in the book review, so that the score of this article can be increased.

If you don't force it, just fight if you like it, and if you don't like it, just pass by.
