Chapter 587: Riding Together
Zhao Yuanrong invited to ride together, Ji Ning looked very embarrassed, although it seemed that it was not himself who suffered in this matter, but Zhao Yuanrong as a woman, but obviously Zhao Yuanrong was suspected of using this matter to "trap" him.
If he is seen riding with Zhao Yuanrong, and the matter spreads, then he will not be able to wash it by jumping into the Yellow River.
In this situation, it is obviously best for Zhao Yuanrong to give him the horse, and Zhao Yuanrong himself is not in a hurry to go back, so why should he ride together?
"Thank you Zhao Gongzi!" After thinking about it for a while, Ji Ning still grabbed Zhao Yuanrong's arm and didn't hold hands with her, so he easily got on the horse, and he was behind.
When Zhao Yuanrong rode on the horse with him, even the horse neighed, obviously the weight of the two of them was a little heavy, and Ji Ning's previous action on the horse was very restrained, so that the horse panicked, and Zhao Yuanrong almost didn't sit down and fell down.
The two of them were still one after the other, looking very restrained, Zhao Yuanrong smiled and said, "Ji Ning, why don't you hold my hand?" ”
"It's inconvenient!" Ji Ning said.
"Then hold on to my waist, when you are away, no one knows your identity and mine, and when others see two sons riding together, at most they feel strange, but they will not be too careful, and it will not affect your reputation!" After Zhao Yuanrong finished speaking, seeing that Ji Ning still didn't plan to grab her waist, he said angrily, "Hurry up, this is out!" Drive! ”
Lifting the reins of the horse, the horse began to move forward under the pain, because of a flicker, Ji Ning had to grab Zhao Yuanrong's waist, but after all, he has practiced Tai Chi for many years, and he knows how to overcome rigidity with softness, just such a shaking can't make him lose his balance.
Zhao Yuanrong didn't "succeed" once, which was very strange, but at this time she didn't continue to embarrass Ji Ning.
The horses were heading in the direction of the palace, all the way through Qingshui Street, and then to Dongjiang Rice Lane, Ji Ning was riding behind Zhao Yuanrong, and he could be full of warmth as soon as he stretched out his hand in front, but he didn't do it.
It's not that he wants to pretend to be a decent gentleman, it's that he feels that the timing is wrong, even if Zhao Yuanrong proposed to marry as a condition, but he didn't specify the deadline, he felt that it was not a good thing for Zhao Yuanrong and himself to have a "skin-to-skin relationship" with Zhao Yuanrong in such a hurry.
Even so, riding on the same horse with the dignified Princess Wenren of the Dayong Dynasty is also very charming, even the faint and faint body fragrance on Zhao Yuanrong's body has made him feel a little strange in his heart.
As the breeze rose, it often brushed his cheeks, and what came to his mind was that the two of them could ride horses and wander among the flowers in the future, as if they were in a fairy tale, but he quickly dispelled this idea.
Ji Ning thought to himself: "What's wrong with me?" It's just that I was riding on the same horse with Princess Wenren, and she was just kind enough to give me a ride, so I thought about it like this, how could it be done by a righteous gentleman? ”
But after thinking about it, in fact, what is in my heart, it is involuntary, or it has nothing to do with morality at all, and I don't let people do it, is it not possible to think about it?
"I've always been insincere in my opposition, but now that I think so, I have to suppress it, that's called torturing myself!" Ji Ning thought to himself, "To be a decent gentleman, it is better to be a real villain." But I'm not going to be so shameless! ”
……
……
When Ji Ning was thinking about things, Zhao Yuanrong would also have some strange thoughts in his heart.
After all, it was the first time she had such intimate contact with a man in so many years, especially the morning after the two of them were in the same room.
Zhao Yuanrong thought to himself: "Last night, I saw Ji Ning sitting in danger, you can see that he is actually a righteous gentleman, with his current status, in fact, he should have started a family a long time ago, he has not yet started a family, mainly because he came out of the family, and he is still running around for the imperial examination, no one presides over and operates for him, such a talented scholar, and such a strong wisdom and strategy, and he can earn silver through some methods, which can be said to be an impeccable talent with talent, wealth, status, net worth, background, and appearance. I'm afraid all the women in the world will be in favor of him, right? ”
Just as he was thinking about it, Zhao Yuanrong suddenly felt that a pedestrian was blocking the way, and quickly turned the horse's head, without letting the horse rush up directly.
Such twists and turns did not make Ji Ning put his hand on her waist, but instead Zhao Yuanrong's body leaned back and directly "planted" into Ji Ning's arms.
"Is the princess alright?" Ji Ning gently helped Zhao Yuanrong and asked.
"It's okay, what can it be? The man suddenly came out just now, and he was also looking for death, but fortunately this was in the city, and the horseback riding was not fast! Zhao Yuanrong complained. 、
Ji Ning smiled and didn't say much, in fact, Ji Ning himself could feel that this mode of getting along was very weird, so that the two of them were very embarrassed.
After passing the Dongjiang Rice Lane, the main gate of the palace was in sight, and finally arrived at the place that Zhao Yuanrong said. On the side of the road, a small liquor shop for the morning market is opening its doors.
"Let's go in and have dinner together!" Zhao Yuanrong greeted.
At this time, the sun was about to rise, and the sky and the earth were no longer dark, he didn't want to delay any longer, but wanted to go to the main gate of the palace as soon as possible to prepare for the palace examination that day.
"Still don't need to." Ji Ning said, "Thank you Zhao Gongzi for sending him off, let me get off the horse here, and walk on foot for the last part of the road!" ”
Ji Ning knew that near the palace, there were already candidates walking in the direction of the palace gate, and if he continued to ride with Zhao Yuanrong, it would be easy for others to notice.
Zhao Yuanrong smiled and said, "Ji Ning, I didn't expect you to be so restrained about men and women!" ”
"I haven't married yet, and a lot of things ...... Be cautious, of course! Ji Ning is behind Zhao Yuanrong, because the saddle is not big, it can be said that there is no gap between the two bodies, such a position also makes Ji Ning very helpless, he can't have more words with Zhao Yuanrong, if he doesn't get distracted quickly, there will probably be some reactions in the next step, and Zhao Yuanrong will feel it, which is a bit of a gaffe.
Zhao Yuanrong also seemed to be a very generous person, and when he got to the side of the road, he jumped off the horse first, and said, "Okay, let's send it here first, there are only a few hundred steps behind, you can go by yourself." If you don't want to eat with you, I'll buy you something to eat on the way! ”
"No need!" Ji Ning first thanked him, and then rejected Zhao Yuanrong's kindness.
He hurriedly said goodbye to Zhao Yuanrong, and then walked quickly in the direction of the main gate of the palace.
Although he wanted to get rid of distracting thoughts, he still couldn't help but think about the moment when he rode the same horse with Zhao Yuanrong before, and even he didn't think that the feeling for Zhao Yuanrong in his heart would be so strong.
Ji Ning thought to himself: "No, could it be that I will take the initiative to think about the dignified Dayong Dynasty?" It's good, it's asking for trouble!
