Chapter 36: Eavesdropping I
After a burst of rain, the sky immediately cleared. The sunlight shines on the wet road, like a silver ribbon, outlining the palace circle. Just after noon, the sun-scorched road surface was dried and white, the sound of cicadas rose and fell on the trees, and the pavilions and pavilions across the layers of palace walls echoed each other from afar, and they refused to give up.
Wu Yan folded a green lotus leaf in his hand and walked leisurely on the path between the lakes. Weeping willows are planted beside the road, sparse and sparse, and the lake on both sides of the road is a half-human-high lotus leaf, stretching densely and densely. She was about to turn the corner of the pond and walk into the shady and rich garden trees, when suddenly, a sharp female voice drew in the hot and dead air, which made people hear clearly, not to mention only four words,ββ "Hugh is presumptuous!"
There was no one around, Wu Yan was bluffed, and subconsciously turned his head to look around to see who was making the sound, the hot wind in the summer mixed with the sound of cicadas passed by, only setting off the rubbing sound of clumps of branches and leaves, this sharp female voice was like a shock, like an illusion, losing its traces among the trees that shook the dry shadows.
Just when the person was about to give up the search, the woman's voice finally sounded in the shadows of the trees,ββ "Knowing that you are a loyal servant, if you want to know from your mouth who your master is, torture will only make you determined to die, or you will be burned by you." It's better not to startle the snake, and set up another game to ask for directions...... You see, now that I know what I want to know, and everyone is all right, wouldn't everyone be happy?"
The woman's words were clear and mellow, and her voice was soft and moving, obviously not the same person as the sharp female voice before. Wu Yan's intuition was not a good thing, but because of the familiarity of this voice, he didn't remember who it was for a while, so he couldn't help but stay for a while, and squatted down to listen to a few more ears. Unexpectedly, after the sound of the branches and leaves, the soft and moving female voice did not sound, but the sharp female voice suddenly came out coldly,ββ "Haven't you eavesdropped enough, I have already seen you." β
Wu Yan sighed in his heart, his heart beat uncontrollably faster, he was really curious to kill the cat, Wu Yan secretly complained bitterly, and he couldn't wait to give himself a big ear scraper who had nothing to do. She rolled her eyes, and in front of her were layers of trees with dark shadows, blocking people's vision, and she was bent at the moment, with layers of green lotus leaves on the shores of the lake on both sides to hide her body, it stands to reason that since she couldn't see the other party, the other party might not be able to see herself, so why was it exposed. Wu Yan sighed in her heart, and struggled to go out, but there was already a crying female voice in the forest, and she sighed and explained in a panic.
It turned out that it was not only himself who was eavesdropping, but also others. Wu Yan breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't dare to stay any longer, he was just about to slip away, but he found that something was wrong behind him, and there was a soft stake on the spacious and flat ground behind him, which not only stuck his heels, but also blocked his body that was about to retreat.
A deliberately lowered voice floated from the back of his head, listening to the voice should be a girl about the same age as himself, but the words he said did not carry a trace of kindness, "Aren't you eavesdropping, why don't you dare to stand up?"
After saying that, the girl didn't wait for Wu Yan to answer, and she laughed first. When Wu Yan turned his head, he happened to see this scene.
ββThe breeze on the shore first blew off a white light veil on the witch's face, and after the light veil, a palace girl stood a short distance behind her, with a palm-sized face, a pair of watery eyes half-drooping, and she was squinting at the witch's face at a high place, with a smile on her lips slightly rippling, indescribably bright and delicate. But even with a smile on his face, there was a pride in his eyebrows, so much so that the smile contained indescribable mockery. The wind on the bank of the river blew far away, and the white light veil also flew away with the wind, and gradually flew away from the witch's face, but it flew high and far, and finally fell softly back to the ground.
Some sounds could still be heard in the forest, the girl immediately raised her eyes to look at the sound, and then put her eyes back on Wu Yan, and unceremoniously looked at Wu Yan from head to toe A few times, Wu Yan saw that she was not good, and looked at herself with an attitude of looking at things, since there was nowhere to hide, there was no need to dodge, Wu Yan simply raised her head and saluted the other party with the same looking gaze.
Seeing Wu Yan like this, the expression on the girl's face changed suddenly, Wu Yan looked at the smile on her lips and suddenly disappeared, and the arrogance between her eyebrows not only contained anger, but also showed a little doubt, as if Wu Yan had done something abnormal. But soon, the girl's lips opened, and she immediately raised her voice and said something to Wu Yan.
The two were so close, the girl's bright and delicate face was within reach, it seemed to be said to Wu Yan, but she deliberately raised her voice so that she could hear it ten steps away, Wu Yan's ears were buzzing, and before she could look at the girl, she first subconsciously looked back behind her. Seeing Wu Yan's actions, the girl became happy, the wind blew the fine hair on the girl's forehead and cheeks, and the sun fell on her white forehead, and the displeasure on her face had been washed away, revealing an undisguised pride, because in front of her, behind Wu Yan, behind the trees that could not be seen through at a glance, the sharp female voice sounded again,ββ "Who is there?"
Wu Yan's ears were a little buzzing, but she still heard the girl's chuckle, which must have been very pleasant. Wu Yan looked up at her, only to see two pear vortices faintly appearing on the girl's smiling cheeks, very delicate, cute and innocent, but at the moment she felt extremely bad in her eyes. As if sensing the movement of someone in the forest walking towards him, Wu Yan knew that he couldn't get out, so he simply said, "Although I just happened to pass by and happened to hear it, I didn't mean to eavesdrop, so I don't dare to dare it." It's you, don't you dare to stand in front of me, if you don't, I won't laugh at you if you stand behind me. β
The girl glanced at Wu Yan, but she didn't react from her smugness, and replied casually, "It's ridiculous, you stand yours, I stand mine, how can I stand with you, a slave......"
As if she had reacted, the girl's voice paused, and her voice immediately sharpened, "What do you mean?"
Wu Yan glanced at the girl beside him for a long time, and replied, "Why, can't you hear what I mean? Then I'll be kind enough to explain it to you, I mean, aren't you also eavesdropping, do you dare to stand in front of me?"
The girl's eyes were round, and she called out "you", but she just stared at Wu Yan and didn't say the second half of the sentence, Wu Yan simply pretended to be a wicked person to the end, and immediately said, "Don't say that you didn't eavesdrop, if you don't eavesdrop, how do you know that I must have eavesdropped?" Maybe I didn't hear anything when I passed here, there is only one possibility, it is that you not only came first, but also eavesdropped, so that you can judge whether the latecomer may eavesdrop." β
"You... Shut up!"
Wu Yan was about to listen to what the girl in front of her was about to say next, but unexpectedly, a sigh came from behind the girl, and an elegant male voice sounded, "Good and decent, what are you bullying others for? If you make trouble again, your mother should punish you for grounding again." β
