Chapter 125: Three wine tours
"Why?" Gu Wanqing thought that Bai Jue was quick-witted and had to interrogate him quickly.
"In another ten days, it will be a ceremony for worshiping the heavens. The king and queen of Yunban Kingdom will come to watch it together. The emperor attaches great importance to it. In the past two days, the envoys will move into Yan'an City in advance. Therefore, the matter of the three missing officials cannot ferment at this moment."
Gu Wanqing nodded, "Oh, I understand."
The Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony is a grand parade held every three years.
This is Nan Yan's most devout prayer to God. The emperor personally led the sacrificial team. It was a huge and prosperous place. From morning to night, you can see the endless sacrificial team. The gongs and drums are loud and bustling.
Yunban Kingdom is the richest territory except Nanyan, and it is also a place that has not been recovered for a long time.
However, it is located on the plateau and the grassland is vast. People who are not native to life are not used to living, let alone fighting, so there is no need to send troops to take them down.
In a sense, it was a powerful country and could only fight with Nan Yan.
Since Yunban Kingdom is willing to attend the ceremony of Heaven, Nanyan must pay more attention to it.
"Tomorrow, I will send someone to send Ruohong back to your mansion." Bai Jue said.
Gu Wanqing said in surprise: "Have the case been solved yet, has Mr. Bai fulfilled his promise?"
Does that mean that they will never owe each other?
This was once said by Gu Wanqing, but now she is a little lost for the freedom that is coming.
"Well, you have done enough. I have no flaw in my clone recently, so I feel relieved if I am by your side."
Gu Wanqing scoffed at his tone and rolled his eyes slightly, "It seems that Ruohong is yours."
Ruohong should have been by her side.
Bai Jue was stunned for a moment, lifted the wine glass to stop the topic, "God for General."
Gu Wanqing moved her nose like a rabbit, and she was also concerned about Bai Jue's statement that he would not get drunk but fell into one cup.
Take a sip, it shouldn't matter.
Bai Jue lowered his head and smiled, saying, "General, you can use tea instead of wine."
Gu Wanqing immediately straightened her back, "No, a martial artist can still drink a glass of wine."
You should drink it all in one go, be as casual as you are. Anyway, you should not admit defeat at the table.
After three rounds of wine.
Gu Wanqing fell straight on the table.
Bai Jue: "..."
He rubbed Gu Wanqing's side face with the back of his hand, which was slightly hot and the aroma of wine was strong.
A snoring sound was already happening at this moment.
"Fortunately, it's a little stronger than I thought."
Bai Jue thought that she could only have half a cup at most, and at least she could hold on for three rounds.
The guy came in and was shocked by Gu Wanqing who was lying down like a corpse.
I have seen many drunk people, and the first one who fell down like her is "tragic, stubborn and stubborn".
"Master, can't the rest of the food be served?"
Bai Jue gave a silver ingot, "No need, prepare a spacious room and sober tea."
"Okay, sir."
The guy took the money happily.
Because the guests here are a lot of drunkenness, there is an inn at the back of this restaurant, which makes it easier for drunken guests to go to rest directly.
...
Gu Wanqing's breathing was hot, lying on Bai Jue's shoulders like a weak kitten.
I don’t know what I was dreaming about, but said something that Bai Jue couldn’t understand, such as gold medals, champions, etc.
Gu Wanqing was very light, and Bai Jue was free to carry it.
Walking through the restaurant's guest tables and crowds, there is an open-air corridor that allows you to walk to the inn.
The evening breeze is slightly cool, which can slightly remove the heat on Gu Wanqing's face.
At this moment, there are few people coming and going, and there is a pool with lotus leaves planted by the corridor.
The lotus leaves are gone, and there is a layer of green floating, especially like glowing jade under the moonlight.
Bai Jue's steps slowed down unconsciously, enjoying the feeling of Gu Wanqing lying quietly on his back.
"Bai Jue!..." Gu Wanqing suddenly shouted.
"Um?"
"Are you... slandering me again?... You don't know me at all... All five years have been lying!..."
Gu Wanqing was speechless and burped a few times. However, Bai Jue heard it very carefully and clearly.
She actually cared about this matter too.
Bai Jue smiled slightly, this was a smile that never looked at people. Even Gu Wanqing didn't.
With a little sadness, a little aftertaste, a little regret and yearning.
The door of the inn opened, Bai Jue gently lowered her and covered her with a quilt.
Gu Wanqing lay quietly like this, and her drunken expression made her breathing ambiguous and imaginative.
Bai Jue lowered his head and listened to her breathing, unconsciously feeling a little hot Adam's apple.
But, perhaps it is the reason for the moonlight outside the window.
The moonlight tonight seemed to be gradually overlapping with the light in his heart.
Such an atmosphere, staring at Gu Wanqing's sleeping scene, seemed to pull him back to the two rainy nights five years ago—
The fifteen-year-old boy, bruised and bruised because of his mission, thought he would die alone in the deep mountains.
Like those hostages, he fell into the valley due to the failure of his mission, and was forced to drink poisonous water by the bandits.
This mistake prevented him from secretly rescuing the hostages.
The black iron mask was tightly tied to the face, as cold as the thousand-year-old ice.
Drinking the bottle of poisonous water, I said one more word and my throat hurts like a heart-wrenching pain. The bandit said he would die slowly.
In fact, he tried all kinds of pain from childhood to adulthood, and he was really tired and didn't want to continue.
The hostage rescue failed. If he went back, what was waiting for him was still endless detention and he would never see his relatives.
What is the difference between this world and hell?
He had his own powerful internal force to force out the toxins, but he had the idea of giving up.
It's good to fall into hell once. Even if you're in hell, it won't be worse than being alive.
Later, in a daze, a red and elegant figure appeared in his sight.
She was like a fairy who fell into the mortal world, saving all the hostages in a single hand and in a graceful manner.
It was late at night, but she felt like there was light around her.
His shocking face made him unable to move his eyes at all.
He had a toxic attack and vomited blood. He temporarily relieved himself with internal force, sealed the acupoints, and wanted to slip away while the chaos was in trouble.
But the girl in red, obviously had a petite figure, and she insisted on pulling him away.
He was so stupid that he really left with her.
In the cave, she asked him if he was a mute?
He thought about it and nodded. It was nothing to lie.
"Do you like eating this fruit?"
"What's your name?"
"Are you cold or not? You're closer to the fire, so warm."
"Don't worry, when the rain stops and the bandits leave, I will take you away."
