Chapter 129 Catching the Wind
Lu Jiliang? Imperial envoy? Did she hear it right?
Bai Zhi was puzzled and said, "You guys in Dayan...are you too casual? Aren't imperial envoys only for high-ranking officials? Lu Jiliang passed the imperial examination the same year we were in the Marquis' Mansion. How could he be an imperial envoy?"
"When the emperor selects his confidants, he only looks at their temperament, not their achievements. Anyone who is loyal and has no hidden intentions will be in the emperor's eyes."
"... Lu Jiliang really hit the jackpot."
Chu Yunchuan sat next to Bai Zhi, sticking close to her: "Let's set off for Fang Mansion in a while. There will be a welcoming banquet prepared by Zhiheng in the evening. If you think it's okay, why not accompany me to the table."
"It's enough for me to see an old friend. I'm not qualified to join the table. You guys, the prince, the imperial envoy, the governor, can you just eat together? You have to talk about government affairs. How can I, an ordinary person with no official title, sit in the middle?" Chu Yunchuan squeezed closer and closer. Bai Zhi simply lay back and said lazily, "You eat your meal, and I sleep... Riding a horse is really tiring."
The word "sleep" seemed to have ignited a fire in Chu Yunchuan's brain. He suddenly leaned on Bai Zhi, his black hair hanging down, and smiled ambiguously, "I am indeed tired. I want to sleep, too."
Bai Zhi didn't hear the hidden meaning in his words, and answered irrelevantly: "It's still early now, you can take a nap, and don't worry about oversleeping. Fang Zhiheng will definitely ask Changfeng to wake you up."
Chu Yunchuan: “…”
Talk is useless, practice it.
He leaned over, touched Bai Zhi's lips with the tip of his tongue, drawing a curved, shiny line of water, and at the same time reached out to Bai Zhi's waist and began to untie her belt.
Now, no matter how dumb Bai Zhi was, she understood what Chu Yunchuan was trying to do. She pinched Chu Yunchuan's stunningly handsome face, narrowed her eyes and said, "My lord, is the door of the main hall locked?"
"It's more than locked." Chu Yunchuan tilted his head and bit Bai Zhi's finger, leaving deep and shallow teeth marks on it. "Even a catapult can't break it open."
"What a good thing." Bai Zhi put her hand on Chu Yunchuan's waist and hooked it. She pushed her body forward and the two of them immediately changed positions. "Your bed board is too uncomfortable. Can you trouble Qiansui to be a human cushion for me?"
Chu Yunchuan gasped heavily, his ears were red as if bleeding, and his eyes were blurred. He opened his chest very tactfully, hooked his pinky finger with Bai Zhi's pinky finger, and led Bai Zhi's hand to his chest that was rising and falling: "I'm very happy to be able to serve the master."
Chu Yunchuan looked thin, but underneath his clothes he had a solid warrior body, with broad shoulders, narrow waist, and well-defined muscles. In bed, Bai Zhi rarely had her hands free, so she grabbed them first and pressed a red palm print. Chu Yunchuan seemed to have changed his strategy today, with his arms spread out on both sides, his body as still as a mountain, and only used his eyes to invite silently.
The burning gaze moved away from Bai Zhi's eyes, his eyelashes fluttered, and slid to the corner of her bright lips, then fluttered again, and slid to the already somewhat messy collar, then fluttered again, and slid further down.
He knew very well in his heart that Bai Zhi loved his eyes the most.
The truth was in front of her, Bai Zhi felt as if she was really burned all over, her breathing became rapid. She and Chu Yunchuan's little fingers were still intertwined, so she simply intertwined her entire palm and let him take off his clothes inch by inch.
Chu Yunchuan said in a hoarse voice: "Boss, it's too slow."
"Of course there are fast ones."
Bai Zhi suddenly lowered her head, bit his lips, and tore off the rest of his underwear.
Thunder from the sky stirred fire from the earth.
An hour passed quietly.
When she was woken up by Chu Yunchuan, the sun had just set. Bai Zhi felt exhausted and didn't want to do anything. She just wanted to sleep until dawn.
Why meet old friends? They won’t run away. It’s still not too late to meet again in two days.
"Bai Zhi?" Chu Yunchuan shook Bai Zhi, who couldn't even open her eyes, and whispered, "Are you really not going?"
Bai Zhi didn't even bother to say anything, she just rubbed Chu Yunchuan's chest and shook her head. After a while, her breathing and pulse became steady, and she fell into a deep sleep.
Seeing how sleepy she was, Chu Yunchuan helped her put on her clothes, picked her up and carried her sideways to the carriage waiting outside, and took her to the Fang Mansion.
This place is called Prince Jing's Mansion, but actually it is just the wilderness. Even if the main hall of this mechanical device is very safe, Chu Yunchuan couldn't bear to leave her here alone.
What if I woke up halfway and found that there was no one around, wouldn’t I be scared to death?
Fang Zhiheng had already prepared a welcoming banquet at home, waiting for people to come and eat.
The imperial envoy came in a hurry and Weizhou had not made any preparations. The imperial envoy's residence, which had luckily survived the war, was still covered with seven or eight layers of cobwebs and dust and was uninhabitable. Therefore, after the imperial envoy arrived in Jingdi, he could only temporarily stay in the governor's residence.
According to the rules, even if the temporary residence cannot be accommodated, the state of Wei should arrange the imperial envoy to live in the palace. Fang Zhiheng was afraid that the imperial envoy would make trouble, so he took the imperial envoy to see the current situation of the Jing Palace yesterday, intending to tell him that it was not that Jingdi looked down on him, but he really couldn't let him live in the toilet.
It was unknown whether the imperial envoy knew this good intention. He looked at the ruins in front of him and said with tears in his eyes: "Prince Jing is truly a good minister of Yan!"
...Fang Zhiheng felt that it was a good thing that he thought this way.
Just after passing this hurdle, Fang Zhiheng broke out in a cold sweat when faced with the next one - the dishes at the welcoming banquet were almost cold, but Chu Yunchuan still hadn't shown up.
The imperial envoy is here to inspect the pastoral area, which means half of the emperor has arrived. No matter how powerful the local tyrants are, they have to come to welcome him personally, and the prince is no exception. Without Chu Yunchuan, Fang Zhiheng couldn't invite the imperial envoy to the banquet. He could only pray that the imperial envoy would not hang around. If he saw that the dishes were already served and asked him why he didn't hold the banquet, he would not be able to save the reputation of King Jing even if he had ten mouths.
Fortunately, half an incense stick later, Chu Yunchuan was seen striding towards them wearing a prince's dragon robe.
"Your Highness, you are here!" Fang Zhiheng pushed Chu Yunchuan to the main seat, and ordered the servants to invite the imperial envoy over. Then he sighed and asked, "My Highness, where have you been?"
Chu Yunchuan said as he sorted out his clothes: "I brought Bai Zhi with me. I just went to make the bed. The mattress in your house is really thin. The six-layer mattress is only equivalent to the three-layer mattress in my house."
Fang Zhiheng: "...make the bed?"
"Baizhi likes a soft bed. I was afraid that she wouldn't be able to sleep well on it, so I put more layers on it." Chu Yunchuan took out a bronze mirror from his sleeve and looked at the hairpin on his head. "Zhiheng, is this hairpin worn properly?"
Fang Zhiheng felt that the hairpin looked familiar. After recalling for a while, he suddenly said, "Isn't this Miss Bai's hairpin?"
