Chapter 70: Trying to Cover Up the Shadows
King Ming glanced at the empty branch again, frowned, but shook his head again, said that he had thought too much, and turned around and walked towards the largest restaurant in Kyoto not far ahead.
Let's say that Na Qi'an was ordered by King Ming and followed behind Luan Ge and Xiaoyan, but just after the corner, he was hit by a person.
The man pulled him to apologize, and insisted on showing him if there was any serious problem. He tried every means to excuse himself and said that he was fine, but he still couldn't get rid of the man.
It wasn't until the end that he saw Luan Ge's figure disappear in front of him, and he couldn't help it, so he pulled out his sword and put it on the man's neck, and the man stopped pestering.
When Qi An caught up, Luan Ge's was long gone. Looking back, the passerby who hit him had long since disappeared into the crowd.
Secretly scolding, Qi An chased in those directions for a long time, but still didn't see the two of Luan Ge, so he had to go back to the restaurant where King Ming was to resume his life.
Luan Ge, who was hiding in the small alley, saw Qi An's figure far away, so he pulled Xiao Yan out of the shadows.
On the side, Xiao Yan asked puzzledly: "Sister, why do we want to hide from Brother Qi An? Isn't he Uncle Qi's person?"
Luan Ge glanced at him, motioned for him to follow, and said as he walked: "Then why did he not know why he was walking with us, why did he hide behind us and secretly follow us?"
Xiao Yan didn't look at her angrily, and muttered, "How can it be as dangerous as you say...... Maybe Uncle Qi is afraid that we will be in danger, so let Brother Qi An protect us in the back?"
Luan Ge was a little confused, why is this kid such an innocent and pure little sheep? Is it really that he doesn't know that people's hearts are sinister or has he been brainwashed by King Ming? Turned around and looked at Xiao Yan in front of him seriously:
"Okay, then if Qi An comes over and sees me flying over such a high palace wall with you, how should I explain to him if you tell me?
Xiao Yan opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to respond.
Seeing this, Luan Ge stopped looking at him, turned around and continued to walk in the direction of the palace wall, saying as he walked: "I'm not suspicious of anyone, nor am I worried that he has any bad intentions. Even if he has any bad intentions, he can't hit me, I just don't want to cause some trouble for no reason, you know?"
Xiao Yan followed behind her, nodded, and said, "I know, Sister." ”
Hearing this, Luan Ge breathed a long sigh of relief, shook his head, and took Xiao Yan's hand and continued to walk forward.
"But, Sister...... Xiao Yan was also curious about why Sister A could have such ability. Sister, shouldn't you be like Sister Qianhuahuang, who doesn't see the sword and gun, and weaves brocade behind closed doors to make a female celebrity?" Xiao Yan looked at Luan Ge beside her with wide eyes, and asked her long-standing questions.
It's not that he didn't see the difference in Luange, compared with all the daughters of his father, Sister Ah does have her own differences, he doesn't understand where these differences are, but it just gives people a completely different feeling.
Those people chase fame and fortune, climb high and step low, but Sister Ah doesn't care about these, otherwise she wouldn't have been treating herself like this for so many years, like a blood relative.
She doesn't seem to care about anything except eating and sleeping, but she doesn't know anything, nothing happens in this palace can escape her eyes, but she never fights or grabs, and lives in a corner, like a concubine's mother.
She won't worry about getting married like Sister Qianhua, and she won't learn those female celebrities who embroider brocades, and even know some kung fu, she is not reserved and undignified, and there is nothing like what a royal princess should look like.
But she is indeed the sister who has been with her for many years.
But he just didn't understand why there was such a big difference.
Luan Ge's footsteps stagnated, and he looked at Xiao Yan, who was asking about him with wide eyes next to him, his mouth opened, but he didn't know how to speak.
Turning his face, there was silence for a while.
Reluctantly pulling her mouth, she said lightly: "Let's go back to the palace first, it's not easy to explain if you go back late." You just need to know that no matter what, Sister will never harm you. ”
Xiao Yan heard the loneliness in Luan Ge's words, and knew that she had said the wrong thing, and she felt very guilty.
Indeed, no matter how different Sister A is, like a mystery that people can't guess and can't figure out, she has never hurt herself, but on the contrary, she treats herself far better than others. I doubt her so much now, how can I not make people feel cold?
Nodding fiercely, he pulled Luan Ge, who was standing in place, and walked forward: "Well, Sister, I believe you no matter what! Let's go, let's go home quickly!"
Luan Ge was dragged forward by him, and he couldn't cry or laugh for a while: This kid ......
Xiao Yan was about to move forward, but was pulled by the person behind him, he peeked at Luan Ge, thinking that she was angry with herself, and her heart became more and more uncomfortable: "Sister...... Don't be angry...... Xiao Yan ......"
Luan Ge chuckled, nodded his forehead, and said angrily: "It's a mistake! ”
Xiao Yanden smiled, grabbed Luan Ge's hand tightly, and walked to the other side with her.
Around the corner behind him, a young man stood with his hands on his chest, watching the scene with a smile on his lips.
=====
From the grove back to the Yongluan Palace, there was nothing to do all the way, and when Lianxin saw them coming back, she didn't ask much, but said that these two little masters went to wander around again.
Xiao Yan had enough fun outside the palace, and when she returned to the palace, she was already tired and yawned, and after saying a word to Luan Ge, she went back to her room, lay down and slept.
Luan Ge put down six taels, told Lianxin to prepare some things for it, and went back to the house himself.
Closing the door, sure enough, I saw Shu Yang sitting on the chair behind him. Smiling, Luan Ge sat down across from him.
Shu Yang put the poured water in front of her, Luan Ge unceremoniously drank it, pushed the cup over again, and motioned for him to continue to fill it.
Shu Yang was good-natured and helped her fill it up again, watched her drink, and said on the side: "Forgive him?"
Luan Ge put down the cup in his hand, understood what he was asking, and said, "After a while of dividing my heart in the market, Xiao Yan disappeared, and he finally led it out." ”
"It doesn't seem to be a chance encounter, but why did he deliberately lure you out? Could it be that we have revealed some flaws?" Shu Yang frowned, "Could it be Ah Lan? It and Liuliang are not vulgar things, it is inevitable that people will not think too much, it is my negligence." ”
"I don't think so," Luan Ge shook his head, "Although he mentioned Ah Lan, he didn't think about the relationship between Ah Lan and Liuliang. I think he might have sensed something else. ”
Shu Yang looked at Luan Ge and listened to her say slowly: "He may know my identity." ”
"Are you sure?" Shu Yang was a little surprised.
"I think it's about the same. Today he told me about his and Qi Mingluo's experiences from childhood to adulthood, and let me taste my favorite Zhuzhu lips on the boat, and told me where Xiang'er was two days ago when I married to Yan Kingdom. ”
"So what? do you believe what he says?" Shu Yang asked.
Luan Ge shook his head and said, "It is precisely because what he said is too true, and he has an alibi at the most critical point, that it is even more suspicious." If I had asked and he had explained, I might have believed it, but he took the initiative to say it, which made me hesitate a little. ”
Shu Yang smiled: "There are no three hundred taels of silver here, do you want to cover it?"
Luan Ge nodded: "It's better to believe that there is something than to believe that it is not." Either he knew about what happened between me and Xiang'er yesterday, or it was really such a coincidence, he really wanted to talk about the past with me, a niece. But the latter is too unlikely. ”
"So, are you going to go to Qi Mingxiang again?" Shu Yang raised his eyes to look at her and said.
Luan Ge returned with a firm gaze: "I have to go." ”
"Do you believe Qi Mingxiang's words?" Shu Yang squinted at her when he heard this: "Compared to months of friendship, it is not as good as the blood relationship from childhood to adulthood?"
"I ......"
Luan Ge didn't expect him to say this, so he couldn't help but be stunned, and said, "It's not that I don't believe it...... I just want to get rid of his suspicion completely. ”
Shu Yang didn't speak, and only after a while did he shake his head and say, "After all, it's your own heart knot." Well, some things will be figured out sooner or later. ”
Luan Ge was about to speak, but he heard a few knocks outside, followed by Lianxin's call: "Princess, Aunt Yun next to the noble concubine is here, saying that she is going to see you on behalf of the mother." ”
Luan Ge glanced at Shu Yang, but heard him say, "I forgot, I didn't tell the concubine about your going out." Fortunately, you came back in time, and no one came to Yongluan Hall today. ”
She glared at him, and thought about it, whether it was her own negligence, the less people knew about leaving the palace, the better, how could she tear down the east wall and make up the west wall, and tell Xiang'er to cover it up in order to prevent others from knowing?
Fortunately, nothing happened.
shouted outside the door: "Take my aunt to the main hall first, and I'll come out immediately." Saying that, he got up and told Shu Yang: "I'll go see Aunt Yun, if possible, I'll go to Xiang'er to explore again, you will have time for a while, go and check the old man next to Xiaoyi who called 'Uncle Zhu'." ”
