Chapter 14 I'll Go With You
On the way back to the courtyard, neither of them spoke.

Li Cheng looked at the cloudless blue sky above his head, and felt a little uneasy in his heart.

The little girl selling flowers before was actually not even the tip of the iceberg.

Today's Jin Dynasty, on the surface, seems to be full of flowers, but in fact it is in the midst of internal and external troubles.

Because of his second uncle's glorious deeds of killing his brother and imprisoning his father, the relationship between the emperor and the Confucian sect dropped to a freezing point.

In order to deal with the threat of northern barbarians, the most prosperous Jiangnan region has increased taxes six times in ten years.

Because of this, several rebellions broke out throughout the South.

Although it didn't work out in the end, the impact on the world's hearts was immeasurable.

This is exactly what gave Li Cheng the confidence to dare to rebel.

He is not alone.

Behind him stood Jiangnan Academy, the four major aristocratic families in the southeast, and thousands of ordinary people in the south.

The emperor thought that by placing Li Cheng in Jiangnan, he could use his unique status to appease people's hearts.

But this made Li Cheng like a fish in water and an eagle shooting into the sky.

Thinking about this, he suddenly had some thoughts of returning to Jiangning.

After some time, the cherry blossoms in my hometown...ah no, the plum blossoms are about to bloom.

in the courtyard.

Thinking of the light pink all over the mountains and plains, Li Cheng turned to look at the silent girl beside him:

"After some time, do you want to accompany me to Jiangnan for a walk?"

Xiang Yi, who was loading rice into a vat in the kitchen, couldn't help but pause after hearing this.

She was stunned for a moment, and had the urge to agree directly.

But when the words came to her lips, after much hesitation, she calmly replied frankly:

"I would go if I could."

When Li Cheng heard this, he thought this answer was strange.

There seemed to be something very important hidden in the other party's words.

But he had no intention of getting to the bottom of it.

After thinking for a while, Li Cheng stretched out his right thumb and little finger and chuckled:
"Since you agreed, then hang yourself on the hook and don't regret it."

"I didn't agree." Xiang Yi emphasized.

But when she saw that the other party still had no intention of taking his hand back, she was silent for a moment, and then faintly uttered two words:
"childish."

But at the same time, she put down the straw bag containing rice in her hand, reached out and hooked Li Cheng's finger.

The moment each other's fingertips touch,

A faint crimson color quietly appeared on the girl's ears.

Looking into Li Cheng's bright eyes, Xiang Yi suddenly thought of a poem by the person she hated:

The body has no colorful phoenix and double flying wings.

Minds think alike.

……

……

At noon, Li Cheng cooked a sumptuous meal.

In addition to a large pot of stewed fish in an iron pot with a rich sauce, there is also a plate of eggplant with garlic paste and a bowl of egg custard with a few drops of sesame oil.

Li Cheng was worried that Xiang Yi would lose his appetite because of the little girl.

But what surprised him was that although the other party was not very happy, his appetite did not decrease at all.

after eating.

Xiang Yi, who was sitting on the chair, put down his chopsticks and stared silently at Li Cheng opposite him.

Thinking of what happened in the morning, Li Cheng stood up and couldn't help but smile at the corners of his lips:

"I know, once a man says something, it is hard to follow him.

Don’t worry, since I promised to clean up, I will never break my promise..."

Xiang Yi saw Li Cheng walking to the kitchen holding bowls and chopsticks, and followed him silently.

It seemed a bit like he was afraid that Li Cheng would run away halfway.

After seeing Li Cheng start washing the dishes with her own eyes, she rolled up her sleeves, revealing a pair of smart wrists that could conquer frost and snow.

When Li Cheng saw the other party taking the initiative to help, he did not stop him.

After all, there is an old saying that if men and women work together, they will not be tired from work.

Along with the sound of washing, Li Cheng asked casually to the beauty beside him:

"Any plans for this afternoon?"

Even though he has lived in this world for ten years, he is still not used to living without a mobile phone.

For most people, life is actually very boring.

It’s no wonder that most families have more than one child.

It’s late at night and there really aren’t any other entertainment activities…

Just as his thoughts were wandering, he suddenly heard the girl's straightforward answer:
"sleep."

Li Cheng was silent for a moment, thought for a moment and suggested:
“I think we should do something that both of us find interesting.

How about we go to the river for a picnic? "

"No," Xiang Yi looked down at the chopsticks in the bucket and refused without thinking:
"I want to sleep."

Li Cheng:......

Okay, he's okay with that.

It's just about sleeping. It would be great if he could have a certain sense of participation.

Put the washed dishes and chopsticks back to their original places.

The two walked out of the kitchen side by side, and then went back to their rooms to sleep.

……

……

The afternoon passed quietly like flowing water.

In a blink of an eye, the moon hangs in the sky, and the dark night falls again.

After eating dinner and washing up, the two went back to their rooms and went to sleep.

Time passed quietly bit by bit.

It seemed that a peaceful day was about to pass like this.

It's half past Hai hour, but Zi hour has not yet arrived.

Under the cold moonlight.

Xiang Yi, dressed in black, silently walked out from under the eaves and glanced at the dark west wing.

Then, she quietly walked to Chaimen and was about to imitate Li Cheng and climb out of the wall.

At this moment,

A lazy voice sounded out of thin air in the courtyard behind her:
"It's so late, Xiaoyi, where are you going?"

Xiang Yi's jade hand holding the Lady's Sword suddenly trembled.

She turned around and saw Li Cheng, dressed in brocade, opening the door and appearing in the moonlight.

Li Cheng crossed the threshold, walked to the other party with steady steps, and stood with his hands behind his back.

The bright moonlight elongated his slender figure.

If the [Blurred Face] skill is turned off, he will be truly unparalleled.

Xiang Yi blinked his long eyelashes, remained silent for a few breaths, and then lightly opened his red lips:

"Knowingly asking."

When Li Cheng appeared, she thought about something clearly.

"When did you find out?" Xiang Yi asked softly with a trace of curiosity.

"I guessed it when I saw you holding that girl's hand during the day."

Li Cheng didn't intend to hide it, and said bluntly:
"If my prediction is correct, you should have used a tracking technique on that child.

Just like, you planted similar marks on me before. "

"I...I erased it last night."

Xiang Yi hurriedly explained, and then asked tentatively in a low voice:

"So, you've already guessed, what am I going to do?"

"Isn't it just killing people?"

Li Cheng smiled nonchalantly, then passed over the other party, stepped forward and opened the courtyard door.

He turned to look at the slightly dull-looking girl and smiled:

"Let's go, go early and come back early."

"Oh, okay." Xiang Yi recovered from the slight stupor and walked out of the small courtyard with a slightly messy step.

But she had just taken a few steps when she suddenly stopped on the spot.

Because she discovered that the person behind her did not walk back into the courtyard after closing the firewood door.

Under the shadow of the forest.

Seeing Li Cheng walking up to him quickly, Xiang Yi lowered his eyes slightly and asked in a voice like a mosquito:
"You...won't you go back?"

"Why do you want to go back?" Li Cheng asked back first, and then said matter-of-factly:

"How can I trust my wife to run around alone in the middle of the night?

No matter what you are going to do, I will go with you.

Let's make up for the picnic we didn't go to in the afternoon. "

Hearing this, Xiang Yi's tense mind suddenly relaxed, and he subconsciously smiled lightly.

It's as quiet as the night-blooming night-blooming cereus.
