After marriage and marriage, I became the favorite of the group

Ruan Jiu clenched his sleeves unconsciously, he was a little nervous, especially when he met He Lianzhu's eyes that seemed to be glowing green.

It wasn't until Helian Zhu held his hand and leaned over that he regained consciousness in a trance.

He just felt as if a feather fell on his lips and was blown away quickly by the wind.

A very soft kiss.

Ruan Jiu blinked: "It's over?"

He Lianzhu nodded: "It's over."

Ruan Jiu subconsciously said, "That's it?"

He Lianzhu was not convinced, and wanted to press his head, but Ruan Jiu blocked it.

He Lianzhu retorted: "I understand everything!"

He just wasn't ready, and Ruan Jiu didn't look ready either, obviously he looked so nervous, and laughed at him.

"Got it, got it." Ruan Jiu stroked his hair, "Wait for me to come back from Daliang."

"Yeah." He Lianzhu nodded obediently, glanced out of the window, and suddenly asked, "Ruanjiu, are you hungry?"

Ruan Jiu shook his head: "Not hungry yet."

Upon hearing this, He Lianzhu hugged him immediately.

Ruan Jiu was startled: "What are you doing?"

He Lianzhu carried him and ran out: "Go out and ride a horse."

Ruan Jiu didn't react: "What?"

Why go horseback riding?

He Lianzhu has grown very tall, and he is no longer the same as when he was a child. When he hugged Ruan Jiu, he had to be very, very reluctantly to lift him off the ground.

He is now carrying Ruan Jiu as easily as he is carrying his sword and weapon. Ruan Jiu is lying on his shoulders, still not knowing what happened.

He Lianzhu never liked a group of attendants following him in and out, there were not many people around him, and now he carried Ruan Jiu out through the side door, just avoiding the attendants guarding outside.

He carried Ruan Jiu, pulled out the horse from the stable, and put Ruan Jiu on it.

Ruan Jiu grabbed the rein, sat on the horse's back, looked down at He Lianzhu: "What's wrong?"

He Lianzhu smiled at him: "Go out and ride a horse."

Weirdly, Ruan Jiu still nodded: "Well, then go out and ride a horse."

He Lianzhu happily brought out another horse from the stable, and the two of them rode the horse out of the palace and out of the city all the way.

It was already evening at this time, they walked unsteadily through the palace road and the newly built Shangjing Street, and when they reached the outside of the city, it was just when the sun was setting.

Ruan Jiu held the rein with one hand and put his eyes on the eyelids with the other to see the setting sun that melted into the desert in the distance.

I don't know whether it is the setting sun that dyes the yellow sand red, or the yellow sand that makes the setting sun red.

It has been three years since I came to Guiwu, but Ruan Jiu still feels palpitations from the majestic scenery of Guiwu.

Before he knew it, he reined in his horse on the grass and looked at it from a distance for a while. After a long time, he withdrew his hand and looked at Helian Zhu.

"nice."

He Lianzhu smiled, got off the horse, and reached out to help him.

Ruan Jiu patted his outstretched palm, and then dismounted himself.

At this time, there were still some pedestrians outside the city, most of them came to Shangjing to do business, it was getting dark, and they hadn't found a place to stay, they were a little impatient, and hurried into the city.

Ruan Jiu and He Lianzhu walked across a grassy hillside and sat down on a small mound.

Ruan Jiu hugged his legs, looked at the setting sun in the distance, hummed a ditty tune he learned from Zhuang Xian, and shook his head in excitement.

Very cute.

He Lianzhu sat beside him, also not saying a word, just looking at him.

I don't know how long it took, the sun finally set, and a full moon appeared on the other side of the sky.

Most of the time, there is no cloud in Jiwu. Looking at the moon here, the moon always looks extraordinarily large.

The cool evening breeze brushed against Ruan Jiu's hair, he turned around and looked at the bright moon.

He Lianzhu asked him: "Ruanjiu, when do you plan to go back?"

Ruan Jiu came back to his senses and thought for a while: "Maybe this month, I'll go back after I pack up my things, and it will be inconvenient to go on my way any later."

"En." He Lianzhu nodded. Although he didn't stop him, he was still very reluctant, no matter what.

After a while, Helian Zhu asked a question that he knew the answer to: "Do you really want to go home?"

Ruan Jiu nodded vigorously: "Yes, I miss my family very much."

"How often do you think about it?"

"Every time I see the moon."

That is every day.

Perhaps He Lianzhu didn't quite understand Ruan Jiu's feelings at this time.

After all, he has no family members worth missing.

At this time, Ruan Jiu was sad, he didn't notice him, and didn't want to distract him to comfort him, he just looked at the moon with his head propped up.

He Lianzhu may not understand now, but he will understand soon.

Ruan Jiu looked at the moon in his hometown, and He Lianzhu also looked at his little moon.

Ruan Jiu wrote letters to Daliang and his family early on, and made an agreement with them to go back to visit relatives.He Lianzhu had also negotiated with Liang Guo, and Liang Guo naturally had no objection, and said that it would definitely be ready.

After finally going back, before packing up his luggage, He Lianzhu gave Ruan Jiu the key to the palace warehouse, allowing him to take whatever he wanted.

Ruan Jiu was about to evacuate the entire warehouse. For a while, the government and the public were worried that the queen would never come back after leaving.

Ulan persuaded him: "Queen, you still have to come back, and there will be no use for that time."

Ruan Jiu refused to listen to his advice on this matter alone: ​​"Don't worry, when we come back, my father will definitely give me a lot of things."

Of course, Ruan Jiu couldn't pack all the things in the palace into the carriage in the end, it was too much.

He and He Lianzhu spent a whole day sorting out the things again, throwing all the expensive ones into the carriage, and keeping the cheap ones.

Ruan Jiu looked at the "golden light" of several carriages, clapped his hands with a smile, and said to He Lianzhu: "My father used to say that I was a prodigal, it seems a bit right."

On the contrary, He Lianzhu comforted him: "You just spend it, such a little, you will earn it back soon."

"Then I'll go and see what else I forgot to take."

"it is good."

So, until the day before departure, Ruan Jiu was still sorting out his luggage.

That night, he had a jade finger ring in his left hand and an agate ring in his right hand, and he really couldn't give up any of them.

Helian Zhu finished washing, with wet curly hair, walked behind him to get towels: "Take both."

Ruan Jiu happily put the two rings on the thumbs of both hands, and he quickly frowned again: "It's too big."

He Lianzhu wiped his hair, sat next to him, and took a look, it was indeed too big: "This is only worn by the Jiwu people when they shoot arrows. You also want to shoot arrows when you return to Liang Kingdom?"

"Forget it." Ruan Jiu gave him the things, "Leave this to you."

"Just give me what you don't want." Even though he said this, He Lianzhu still put away the two rings.

"Is there not much I brought you from Liang Guo? I showed you all those picture albums." Ruan Jiu cleared his throat and asked in a low voice, "I'm going back this time and I'm going to buy a few boxes of storybooks. Do you have anything?" What do you want to see?"

"No."

"Really do not have?"

Helian Zhu paused for a moment, then said in a low voice, "The next volume."

"what?"

"The second volume of the book you read last time."

"I know, I will definitely buy that one."

Ruan Jiu patted his arm, took the towel and wiped his hair, just like he wiped Rice's head.

The two talked for a while, when He Lianzhu's hair was half dry, Ruan Jiu suddenly said quickly: "I will miss you too, every time I see the moon."

He Lianzhu lowered his eyes, remembering what Ruan Jiu said last time.

When he sees the moon, it is when he misses his family.

He sees the moon every day, and he misses his family every day.

When Ruan Jiu saw the moon, he would think of He Lianzhu.Ruan Jiu thinks about He Lianzhu every day.

He Lianzhu is also Ruan Jiu's family member.

Many different permutations and combinations poured into Helian Zhu's mind, making him chaotic, as if he was stepping on the clouds.

Ruan Jiu called him a few times, but he didn't respond. Finally, Ruan Jiu put the towel on his head: "You wipe it yourself."

He Lianzhu raised his head and stared at him blankly, like a well-behaved big dog.

"I'll miss you too," he said.

"Every time I see the moon."

He said the last sentence in fierce words.

When Ruan Jiu returned home to visit his relatives, he brought a whole convoy back.

He Lianzhu took all the civil and military officials to see him off in front of the city gate of Shangjing, and everyone saw that the king was so sad that the queen was going home, so the eyes of the dog came out.

"Ruanjiu, you must come back early." He Lianzhu urged earnestly.

"Know it."

Ruan Jiu nodded, and at this time Ulan came to report: "Queen, everything is ready and we can set off."

So Ruan Jiu smiled at He Lianzhu: "Don't be sad, go back and read the memorial, I'm leaving."

He Lianzhu was very sad, took his hand, helped him straighten his hair that was blown by the wind, and then helped him tidy up his collar, took out the spike necklace that had been hanging around his neck, and put it on the Outermost.

Let everyone see that Ruan Jiu is his "Qiao Na".

Then He Lianzhu held Ruan Jiu's right hand, and took out another spike bracelet from nowhere—it was probably modified from his pile of spike necklaces.

He Lianzhu also put the bracelet made of wolf teeth on Ruan Jiu's hand, Ruan Jiu was a little confused: "Why do you want another one?"

He Lianzhu didn't answer, took his left hand again, and put one on his left hand as well.

Ruan Jiu was even more confused: "Why are there so many?"

He Lianzhu took out two more from his bosom, and knelt down on one knee in front of him.Ruan Jiu was taken aback by him, and only took a step back when he was held back by He Lianzhu.

Two wolf tooth anklets.

Ruan Jiu wondered if the entire Jiwu Spike was here.

He Lianzhu was a little relieved when he tied Ruan Jiu firmly with something made of spikes.

Now, no one who doesn't have eyes would dare to take Ruan Jiu's idea.

He Lianzhu gave a final instruction: "Be careful and come back early."

"Understood, it's not like I won't come back." Ruan Jiu shook his hands and feet, and the spikes collided with the beads on them, making a crisp sound, "What are you doing so much for?"

He Lianzhu glanced at the courtiers below, and said in a low voice: "Don't be disgusted, don't take it off."

"Oh." Ruan Jiu still looked a little disgusted, and squeezed the mace on his wrist.

It really hurt the majesty of the king, He Lianzhu looked at the courtiers again.

In fact, how dare the courtiers look at it?Just stand there, watching your nose, watching your heart.

He Lianzhu said: "Let's go, if you don't go, I'm afraid you won't be able to go."

Ruan Jiu raised his eyes to look at him, saw that his expression did not seem to be fake, and stared straight at him, as if after a while, the spikes on Ruan Jiu's hands and feet would turn into real spikes, biting him firmly, and then Drag him back to the Imperial Palace.

Ruan Jiu responded, took the scepter from Ulan's hand, got on his horse, and drove away in a hurry: "Let's go."

He didn't look back, and of course he didn't see it, Helian Zhu looked at him like a wolf?

It is clearly the big dog left at home.

After the trade route between Daliang and Jiwu was opened, the time spent on the way between the two countries was much less.

One and a half months later, the convoy with his son and son returned home to visit relatives and arrived at Yong'an, the capital of Daliang.

Ruan Jiu was sitting in the carriage with the curtain lifted, and he could see the tower of Yong'an City from a distance.

Coming soon.

But apart from being excited, there was one more thing he needed to pay attention to.

Ruan Jiu withdrew his gaze, looked at Liu Changming in the carriage, helped him put on the cloak and hat, gestured to him, and said, "Do you remember what I told you before?"

Liu Changming nodded.

He can't let others see his face, no matter what people he sees or places he sees, he can't show it.

It wasn't until Ruan Jiu told him that he could tell him that he could tell him the matter.

Liu Changming has also been treated for two or three years, and the doctor persisted in giving him injections. He is now better than before.

It's just that he can't speak yet, and he still likes to follow Ruan Jiu.

When Ruan Jiu returned to Yong'an this time, besides bringing him, he also brought the letter he found from He Liancheng a few years ago.

The most difficult thing to solve is still left to the elder brother to solve.

After Ruan Jiu arranged the matter, he turned his head to look out of the window.

At this time, the carriage was getting closer to Yong'an City, and happened to pass by the polo field, but at this time, there was no sound inside.

Ruan Jiu held his head.

In fact, a polo field was also built outside Shangjing City, but it looks different from the one outside Yongan City. In a few days, they will play with Xiao Mingyuan and the others for a day.

Not long after, the carriage stopped.

Ulan said: "Queen, here we are."

Ruan Jiu leaned against the window: "I see."

He has seen it.

There were people waiting for him in front of the city gate, his parents, elder brothers, and his group of "hunters and dog friends" were all waiting for him in front of the city gate.

Ruan Jiu let out a howl, and wanted to get out of the window, but Ulan pressed him urgently: "Queen!"

Ruan Jiu retracted into the carriage, then opened the curtain, jumped out of the carriage, and before he could even take the scepter in Ulan's hand, he grabbed the hem of his clothes and rushed towards the city gate.

He threw himself into Madam Ruan's arms, and called out softly, "Mother."

Madam Ruan stroked his hair, looked around, and smiled helplessly: "How old are you?"

Of course, the first thing to do is to call mother, anyway, he is not yet an adult, he is still a child.

Ruan Jiu put his arms around his mother's neck and leaned against his mother's arms. He turned his head and saw his elder brother. He freed a hand and shook his elder brother's hand: "Brother."

Ruan He originally wanted to tell him not to be so presumptuous, but seeing him, he still couldn't help smiling.

Whatever it is, let him be presumptuous for a while today.

After Ruan Jiu whispered a few words to his family, Master Ruan pushed him away and said in a low voice, "Go over there first, and we'll talk about it later when we get home."

"Ok."

Ruan Jiu glanced at his family reluctantly, then took the scepter from Ulan's hand, and walked towards the main city gate.

Emperor Liang must have sent someone to meet him. He saw Xiao Mingyuan, but he was already very tall and strong. Ruan Jiu was not sure if this tall man was the stupid one from before. The young prince he quarreled with.

But when he saw the two people behind Xiao Mingyuan, he was almost sure.

One is Wei Xu, the young son of Fuyuan General's Mansion, who has also grown a lot taller, and the other is Yan Ning, the eldest grandson of Lord Yushi. He hasn't changed much, and he still looks like a thin scholar.

Except for Xiao Mingyuan, there was no one in Yong'an City who formed such a trio with the other two.

Holding the scepter, Ruan Jiu stepped forward quickly, cleared his throat, and held his head high in front of them: "Ahem."

Remind them I'm back!

Xiao Mingyuan laughed angrily at him, and patted his hand.

Taking advantage of the situation, Ruan Jiu stretched out his hand and gave him a high five.

The two clasped their hands, pulled each other towards themselves, and bumped their shoulders.

Just when the two of them were about to laugh, Yan Ning coughed softly, winked at Ruan Jiu, and reminded Ruan Jiu.

Only then did Ruan Jiu realize that there was still a person standing beside Xiao Mingyuan.

This person is about 25 or [-] years old, with a slightly pointed chin and narrow eyes, a bit like a fox.He was wearing the uniform of a prince, and the eunuch behind him held the imperial decree in both hands.

Ruan Jiu glanced at Xiao Mingyuan, Xiao Mingyuan immediately suppressed his smile, and shook his head at him.

Only then did Ruan Jiu understand that his return this time was not like the last time he left.

When he left last time, Emperor Liang issued an order for Xiao Mingyuan to send him off; this time when he came back, Emperor Liang did not ask Xiao Mingyuan to welcome him, and Emperor Liang sent another prince.

A person Ruan hadn't seen for a long time.

But Emperor Liang knew clearly that he and Xiao Mingyuan were friends.

There may be two possibilities for Emperor Liang to do this.

One is that he didn't take Ruan Jiu's visit to his relatives seriously.This should not be the case, the relationship between Jiwu and Daliang has become better recently, and He Lianzhu even specially wrote a document to Emperor Liang, Emperor Liang would not be like this.

Second, Emperor Liang didn't take Xiao Mingyuan seriously.

But Ruan Jiu still doesn't quite understand, during the ten years he's been in Yong'an City, Xiao Mingyuan, as the old man of Emperor Liang, has always been favored, how could he lose his sacred heart?

Before Ruan Jiu had time to think about it, Xiao Mingyuan introduced for him: "Ruan Jiu, you don't recognize him, this is the third brother, King Ying."

Ruan Jiu entered the royal family tree, and the ranking is still ahead of Xiao Mingyuan, so Xiao Mingyuan called him "third brother".

In fact, it is the third prince.

Ruan Jiu nodded and called out "Prince", and King Ying saluted him: "Queen."

"Father asked me to invite the queen into the palace to have an audience."

"it is good."

Ruan Jiu glanced back, and asked Ulan to hand over the things he brought back to the Ruan family: "Give Liu Changshou to my brother, and I will talk about anything when I come back. Tell my parents, we will After leaving the palace, go home immediately."

Ulan nodded in agreement, and went down to work.

Ruan Jiu picked up the scepter and followed King Ying into the city gate. Xiao Mingyuan and others also accompanied him and entered the palace with him.

Xiao Mingyuan is much calmer than when he was young, and he doesn't wear gold and silver like before, and he doesn't dress up like a peacock anymore.When meeting Ruan Jiu, although he was happy, he also seemed to have a gloomy expression on his face.

Although Ruan Jiu was full of questions, it was inconvenient to ask them at this time.

I could only hold back and went all the way to the palace.

The process of the interview was always the same. Ruan Jiu sat in his seat and looked up at Emperor Liang, feeling that he was much older than three years ago.

And Emperor Liang didn't treat him as kindly as he did three years ago when he was about to choose him as a marriage partner. He didn't let him go up and sit next to him, and didn't say anything else. It revolves around the diplomatic relations between Liang Guo and Jiwu.

Ruan Jiu also answered politely.

Before leaving, Emperor Liang asked him: "Are you still used to living in Jiwu?"

Ruan Jiu paused, then nodded: "Very good."

"Will you be homesick?"

"Yeah." Ruan Jiu nodded again, "I think about it every day."

Only then did Emperor Liang feel a little moved, and his expression eased a lot: "Then stay for a few more days."

"it is good."

Emperor Liang looked at Xiao Mingyuan behind him again, and said in a slightly cold tone, "You play well with the queen."

Xiao Mingyuan just leaned over and saluted: "My son obeys the order."

Ruan Jiu watched, feeling more and more suspicious.

But coming out of the palace, the King of England was there all the way, Ruan Jiu didn't dare to ask them, he just told them: "I'll go home first, see you in the afternoon when the building is full."

"Okay, you go back quickly, see you in the afternoon."

Friends waved to him, and Ruan Jiu got into the carriage like this.

When Ruan Jiu returned home, his family members were waiting for him in front of the door, and when they saw him coming, they surrounded him and went in.

Ruan Jiu was surrounded by his parents on one side, booing and inquiring about his health.

"Our Xiaojiu has grown so tall, even taller than my mother."

"How's it going? How's that going on there? When are you leaving this time?"

"What do you want for lunch? Mother will tell them to do it right away."

"There are many disasters and disasters over there. In just a few years, there have been several palace changes. Didn't it involve you? That kid... the king treats you well, right?"

Madam Ruan stopped in her tracks, lowered her face, and said to Master Ruan, "I was the one who talked to Xiao Jiu first, please line up."

Master Ruan wanted to refute, but was glared at by his wife, and retreated weakly: "Jiu Jiu, come to the study to look for dad at night."

Ruan Jiu nodded: "Okay."

Then Ruan He stepped forward, took over Master Ruan's position, hugged Ruan Jiu's hand, and said softly, "Xiao Jiu, how are you doing in Jiwu?"

"Very good." Ruan Jiu whispered to him, "Is the person I brought back with you?"

Ruan He whispered: "Well, but that person is wearing a 'hijab', and no one can take it off. I need you to go over and take a look later."

"It's obviously a cloak." Ruan Jiu touched the tip of his nose.

Master Ruan actively reported: "Ma'am, Xiaohe jumped in line!"

Ruan Jiu hugged his elder brother: "This is the Queen's handpicked... Brother! Zha Zuo has been following me all the time."

There was still some time before lunch, Ruan Jiu stuck to his elder brother and followed him back to the yard.

Changing to a new place, Liu Changming was obviously a little uneasy. He stood in the yard, ready to run away to find Ruan Jiu at any time, and because Ruan Jiu told him not to run around, when he came back to look for him, he just stood there .

And Liu Changming also remembered Ruan Jiu's instructions to wear the cloak and not let others see his face, holding the cloak tightly with one hand.

When Ruan Jiu followed his brother, he was standing in the yard.

Ruan Jiudao: "...Little Pig said he was a dark guard, or a dark guard who protected his brother, but I don't quite understand, where did our family raise a dark guard?"

Ruan He smiled and patted his hand: "Let me see."

Even if Liu Changming was brought back by Ruan Jiu, Ruan He still subconsciously blocked him behind him.

He stepped forward to uncover Liu Changming's cloak, but before he could move, the cloak was pulled.

Ruan He held his hand and said softly, "Don't be afraid, I didn't..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Liu Changming lifted his cloak with a jerk.

When meeting Ruan He's eyes, he actually began to tremble slightly, tears streaming down his face.

Ruan He was also taken aback, looked back at Ruan Jiu, and wiped Liu Changming's eyes: "If there is anything, don't tell him first, tell me later."

This naturally refers to Ruan Jiu.

Ruan He shook his head firmly: "I don't want him to be involved in court disputes."

Liu Changming seemed to understand and nodded.

Ruan Jiu leaned forward: "How is it? Brother, do you recognize him?"

"I know." Ruan He smiled, "I met him in the barracks during the last expedition."

"Oh."

Ruan He couldn't help asking: "Is he all right?"

"It's okay, just like what I said in the letter, I was poisoned."

Ruan He nodded: "Go in."

Ruan Jiu lay on the bamboo couch, pillowing Ruan He's leg.Liu Changming glanced at it, then squatted down on the bamboo couch, trying to imitate Ruan Jiu's movements.

Ruan Jiu jumped up and held him down: "No! This is my brother!"
