Chapter 77 Chapter 77(1/2)
The sky is slightly bright.
The tile head was still wet. The remaining rainfall last night dripped down slowly from the top and fell into the water pit of the stairs foundation stone.
Li Mu had already woken up. He closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, and hugged his arms around Luo Shen who was still sleeping in his arms.
The scenes from last night came to his mind.
He felt a little ashamed of taking advantage of that opportunity to force her to say what she wanted to hear.
She was so innocent and so obedient that she could easily achieve her wish. From her charming little mouth, she said what he wanted to hear.
Thinking back at this moment, while satisfied, he felt a faint sense of emptiness in his heart.
If he hadn't forced her to chase her back last night and made such a promise that made her believe that he and the court, and those who maintained the court, for example, there would be no hostility between her Aye, and I'm afraid this time, he would really lose her.
In her previous life, when she married him, she had been widowed for many years. The court in Dayu was also in turmoil. He was in power and had a high position. She understood him and was willing to love him.
In this life, he forced her to marry her.
She is also a noble flower under the protection of her parents and brothers.
She was so fascinated by herself that she even fought hard in front of her parents for her sake and came here to join him from all over the place.
Even he himself didn't know how he could get her so much love.
On the contrary, whenever I think of it, I feel like the moon in the mirror and the flowers in the water.
That night in Qiuchi, when he was most moved, she suddenly made such a request to him.
She should be unintentional.
But he immediately remembered the bridal night in his previous life, which was also inside the bed tent. She asked him if he had the intention to move the tripod.
What a similar scene.
The more he spent with her, the more he couldn't help but love her more.
Perhaps because I like it a lot, I will inevitably be worried about gains and losses.
She couldn't control herself and always wondered whether she would change her mind and abandon herself when the inevitable breaking day came in the future.
He once thought he would be generous and let her make a choice.
If she really doesn't want herself, he can understand her.
When turmoil comes, he will do his best to protect her and those around her.
As long as she is well.
But when things really come to an end, she is leaving, and he realizes that he is not as generous and free as he thinks.
She could not bear to leave herself behind and return to the world she was originally going to break.
In that world, there are many admirers of her.
And he has become the minister under her side and cannot turn over.
He knows.
Even now, his status is still low and his status is still low.
However, the idea of permanent possession and even complete conquest of her, that she would surrender to herself for the rest of her life has never been as strong as this moment.
...
The slight ticks from the water dripping from the eaves are endless, showing the tranquility of the morning.
He closed his eyes and gently stroked the warm back skin of the girl in his arms that was so smooth that she could hardly keep her hands - she really felt her own.
Outside the courtyard, a scream suddenly came: "Governor Li! Madam! The city soldiers came to report that the tall young master returned outside the city before dawn. He must meet the governor and his wife!"
It's the veteran guarding the gate.
Li Mu didn't move, as if he hadn't heard it.
The girl in her arms was awakened by the sudden noise. Her eyelashes trembled, she immediately opened her eyes, stretched out a soft and warm arm, and pushed him: "Mr. Lang, wake up! Did you hear it? She said that my eldest brother is here? You are not allowed to keep him outside anymore! Let him in!"
She seemed a little nervous.
Li Mu slowly opened his eyes, stared at her worried look, smiled, raised the hand that was pressing against her back a moment ago, rubbed the head that she was arching over, then turned over, and pressed her under her "Oh" complaint.
"No! Brother is still waiting-"
She kept refusing.
Li Mu didn't say a word, but just continued his own affairs.
Soon, her voice became vague and soft, and gradually lowered.
...
Before leaving the door, Li Mu stopped, reached out and tidied up Luo Shen's collar. Then he held his ear and asked in a low voice: "I'll see my elder brother later, do you know what to say?"
Luo Shen's face became slightly hot and he nodded softly.
...
Gao Yin waited in the front hall of the governor's mansion for a long time, and finally heard the sound of people coming.
Li Mu finally showed up with Ah Mei.
Faced with his unhappiness, Li Mu seemed to be fine, greeted with a smile, and was polite and respectful.
It seemed like there was no unpleasant experience of forcibly taking Ah Mei away last night and locking him outside the city gate.
That's all, what's even more surprising about Gao Yin is his sister.
She and yesterday were completely different.
Following Li Mu in, when he crossed the threshold, Li Mu reached out to support her, and she let him hold her.
Then he stood beside Li Mu, very close to him.
When Li Mu apologized for letting him wait for a long time, she seemed shy and lowered her head. A flush on her cheeks could be seen flying up.
Just before coming, early in the morning, Li Mu knew what he had done to her and guessed it.
He couldn't help but get angry.
When Gao Yin was dissatisfied with the pressure and turned to her and asked her if she wanted to go back to Jiankang with her, she finally raised her head and quickly glanced at the man beside her. Then she felt guilty and a little begging gaze, and whispered: "Brother, please go back, can you tell Aye Niang, the couple is one, I'm leaving..."
"Please rest assured that I am here and everything will be fine!"
It seemed as if to convince the eldest brother, she emphasized in a solemn tone.
Gao Yin looked at Ah Mei, who had changed her attitude after only one night. After a while, he slowly turned his gaze back to the man beside her and stared at him.
Li Mu smiled and said, "I'm sorry, brother. After I go back, please forward my letter last night to my father-in-law."
Gao Yin was silent for a moment and finally said, "Okay. I'll go back now. You must take care of yourself in the future. If you have any questions, remember to send me a message at any time."
What he said was to the God of Luo.
At first, Luo Shen was a little worried that his elder brother would insist on implementing Aye's intention, so he would definitely go back with him.
Hearing his words change, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
After relaxing, I felt a little guilty in my heart.
"Brother, I told you to go there for a walk..."
She called Gao Yin, but didn't know what to say, so she stopped.
Gao Yin smiled and comforted softly: "It's okay, don't think too much. Since you decided to stay, I came here and saw this place with my own eyes. I have a clear idea in my heart. After I go back, I can explain it to my uncle and aunt."
Luo Shen nodded, his eyes turned slightly red.
She is really lucky. She was born in this world and not only met her husband, but also received the care of her parents and brothers for many years.
Gao Yin told Fan Cheng, Aju and others again, and after he returned, he asked them to return to the city.
After the explanation, he finally glanced at Li Mu, with a complicated look and turned around.
...
Gao Yin returned to the campsite, explained to Fan Cheng and Aju who had been waiting, and ordered him to go back and continue to follow Luo Shen to stay in Yicheng.
Needless to say, Aju was very happy, and even Fan Cheng seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
Gao Yin turned his head and looked at the tent where Gao Huan slept last night. Seeing that he was still standing there, alone, he was very abrupt, and said, "Have you got up yet?"
Aju said, "I just went to the tent and took a look. Liu Langjun was still sleeping. I thought I was so tired yesterday. I saw that he was still asleep, so I didn't call him."
Gao Yin frowned, turned around and went over, arrived at the tent, opened the door, walked in, and said, "Liu Lang, get up!"
He called out a few times, and saw Gao Huan huddling under the quilt with his head covering, motionless, and went up and lifted it away, stunned.
Where are the people under it?
It was obvious that he had just stuffed a bunch of his clothes, which was bulging in human form, and was concealed by people's eyes.
Gao Yin came back to his senses and was furious, knowing that he must have run away from the eyes of the guards who were sleeping last night.
Turning around and about to chase back, I suddenly saw a piece of paper under the quilt, which seemed to be the letter left. I picked it up and read it.
To be continued...
