Chapter 18: Got a Fall in Love with Him?
When Chi Xiaoman and Shang Ziqi rushed all the way to Qingshan Town, it was already past the hour, and all the shops in the town had already closed their doors to rest, and they finally found a house that was still lit, knocked on the door, and the old man who opened the door looked at the two of them, but immediately closed the door.
The two of them looked at each other, not understanding what the situation was, and knocked on three houses in a row, all of them looked at them with strange expressions, and then closed the door mercilessly, and even the temptation of offering silver was unwilling to let them stay overnight.
In the end, Chi Xiaoman came to a conclusion. She felt that the problem should be with her strange robe.
People in this era are not as open as they are in the 21st century, how can ordinary people take them in, save themselves from hearing strange moans in the middle of the night to disgust themselves, and if there are children in the family, if there is a shadow from now on, and they grow up and decide to come out of the closet, what will they do?
"Brother Shang, I'm sorry, it's all your fault. Chi Xiaoman apologized solemnly, and then said, "Why don't we spend one night in the carriage." ”
"You don't mind. Shang Ziqi shrugged his shoulders, it doesn't matter where the man sleeps, not to mention that it doesn't matter if the people who practice martial arts don't sleep for a night.
Seeing that he agreed, Chi Xiaoman climbed into the carriage, and Shang Ziqi drove the car to a more secluded place to stop, but did not enter the carriage and still sat outside.
"Brother Shang, don't you come in and rest? There are two soft couches, just one for each of us. ”
Seeing that he was just sitting outside, Chi Xiaoman leaned over and asked.
"You should rest first, we both have to be guarded. Shang Ziqi said.
With his vigilance, it would not hurt to go into the carriage to rest, but how dare he! If he let the prince know that he and Miss Chi slept in the carriage together, even if it was on two couches, I am afraid that he would have a hard time in the future.
"Well, I'll take over your vigil later. She lay down on the soft couch, Chi Xiaoman couldn't help but think of Yu Chimu, and said: "You prince don't know what He Lan Fang is doing, he is good, there is a comfortable place to sleep, maybe there is a beauty in his arms, but we have to sleep in the carriage." She didn't really mean to complain, it was just an excuse to talk about him.
"Beauty, Miss Chi shouldn't be referring to Lan Fang, right? It's impossible for the prince to talk to him, I guess the prince should have come to us by now. Naoko was amused by her thoughts.
"How does he know where we are?" Even if he left Purple Garden, he would only go to the Dongfeng Inn to look for them, but they had already left Guan County now.
Shang Ziqi said: "When I left the Dongfeng Inn, I had someone inform the prince, and the prince knew that we were coming to Qingshan Town. ”
"Hey, when, why didn't I see it!" Chi Xiaoman was very surprised, at that time, a group of people under the fat boy's subordinates were going to arrest her, and Brother Shang took her to avoid them, how could he have time to notify anyone?
"The Dongfeng Inn has a hidden pile of the Shadow Pavilion, and the person who watched the carriage for us is the lowest level of the Shadow Pavilion. "Of course, that person was temporarily placed in the inn, and it was all for the preparation of the prince to come to the Shengxing Dynasty this time.
"It's amazing!" Chi Xiaoman felt quite incredible, but he became more and more curious about the organization of Yu Chimu and the Shadow Pavilion.
In fact, just listening to Shang Ziqi talk about Yu Chimu's past, she already felt incredible about Yu Chimu, which was like the Huai'an King she knew, but at the same time she felt sorry and sad for his past bad experience, and even had the idea that it would be nice if she had been by his side at the beginning.
She really wanted to ask Wei Chimu if she would be unwilling, and if she would feel that her genius was buried.
But why did you suddenly put him in your heart like this? Did you like him?
She was quite conflicted in her heart, feeling as if she liked it a little, and felt as if she only regarded him as a friend.
Thinking about it, she was really tired today, such a thrilling day, and now as soon as she relaxed, she fell asleep unconsciously.
"It's the prince who is powerful, without the prince, there would be no Shadow Pavilion, let alone us. Shang Ziqi's tone was an endless reverence for Wei Chimu.
Naoko didn't hear her for a long time, and when she looked back, she was already asleep. He shook his head with a smile and closed his eyes. He really hopes that this cheerful and different girl can make the prince happy.
Just after the time had passed, Shang Ziqi suddenly felt that the carriage behind him moved slightly, as if he had a personal breath, opened his eyes suddenly, pulled out the long sword at his waist, and whispered to the carriage: "Who is coming!"
"Shhhh Wei Chi Mu gestured at him to silence him.
He saw that the person who came was the prince, and he breathed a sigh of relief and quietly withdrew his long sword.
"Ziqi, it's hard work, you go and rest. Yu Chimu took off his outer robe, gently covered the sleeping Chi Xiaoman, and said to Shang Ziqi.
"Thank you, master. Shang Ziqi said in a low voice, there is a prince here, there is really nothing to do with him, his martial arts are a little worse than the prince, if it weren't for his status in the Shadow Pavilion as a right envoy, he has the right to mobilize intelligence for the prince to contact all parties in the Shadow Pavilion, the prince probably wouldn't have brought him to the Shengxing Dynasty.
Yu Chimu sat on the soft couch opposite Chi Xiaoman. In the moonlight, her little face was as white as porcelain, and she didn't know what kind of sweet dreams she was dreaming, with a faint smile on her lips.
"Liuxia...... No, I'm going to call you Xiaoman in the future, I don't know if you have me in your dreams?" he muttered, wanting to reach out and touch her face, but afraid of waking her up, sighed, and finally withdrew his hand.
He likes her, always thinks about her when he doesn't see her, and always has a strong sense of unease about her straightforward personality, but he is also very conflicted in his heart.
She and Cheng Yin are completely different types, until now he still misses Cheng Yin in his heart, and after listening to Lan Fang's words, in addition to missing him, he even added a touch of guilt.
It's just that...... Cheng Yin is already the woman of her royal brother and her sister-in-law. Maybe he should go back to Yasukuni to make sure that she is happy, then his heart can be completely relaxed.
He wanted to be with this cute and straightforward little woman in front of him, and he didn't want to be tied up, which would be unfair to her.
He watched her all night, and thought about her all night, and brought her back to Yasukuni, where she would face a power struggle between him and his brothers, and he knew that those were things she didn't like, even though he didn't want to fight with those brothers himself, but they always regarded themselves as imaginary enemies.
Before taking her back to Yasukuni, he had to take care of everything so that she could be his Huai'an princess in peace.
The sky was slightly bright, and as soon as Chi Xiaoman woke up, he found that he was covered with a robe with a familiar faint sandalwood.
"Wei Chi Mu......" She sat up, jumped out of the carriage, and saw him talking to Shang Ziqi not far away.
She hugged his robe and walked towards them with joy.
