Chapter 21: Overboard: I

In the deserted courtyard, Wu Yan stared at the white figure on the pavilion, her whole person fell in the shadow behind the rockery, black and misty, she could only distinguish its outline, and could not see the face clearly, and the white figure on the pavilion was because the moonlight was too bright, but the face could not be seen clearly, the two situations were just opposite. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

One black and one white, just like black and white impermanence.

Wu Yan thought of this, pursed her lips and smiled slightly, and the tension in her heart instantly dissipated. The fallen leaves piled up on the bridge made a crisp cracking sound when they were stepped on. Wu Yan turned his head to look and saw that the two men had walked to the bridge, and he could clearly see the appearance of these two people. One was slightly short and stocky, carrying a lantern, standing in front of him, while the other was a little taller and thinner, with a serious expression, and was turning his head around for fear of ignoring any movement.

"Let's just go back, it's in the middle of the night, in case you don't see people, isn't this a blind toss?"

Hearing the short and fat man's muttering, the tall and thin man immediately fought back angrily, "Aren't you human? ”

"Then tell me, what can a eunuch do when he comes here around half of the palace, and if you come here in exchange for you, there is no gold, silver and jewelry, let alone wine and beautiful women......

"You're a pig-brained person, you don't even know what you're thinking. The more places no one would think of, the easier it is to do things that are out of the ordinary, especially in the dead of night. ”

"It seems to make sense for you to say that. Could it be that there is more than one person, but several people who have come here to meet......

Before the short and fat man could finish his sentence, a voice from above the pavilion interrupted their conversation, and it was a clear voice asking, "What are you doing?"

This voice is also very familiar, this is a voice between a young man and a man, Wu Yan frowned slightly, but saw the face of the humanoid white shadow on the pavilion turned in his direction, the moonlight fell behind him, and on the face that could finally see his face clearly, a pair of peach blossom eyes seemed to be smiling, staring at him.

It was Xia Ziyan, and it was Xia Ziyan.

"This is a forbidden garden, and the trespasser will be punished with fifty rods, don't you know?" The short and fat man took the lead in opening his mouth, but at this time, Xia Ziyan happened to look at Wu Yan, so that the short and fat man did not see Xia Ziyan's appearance, he saw that Xia Ziyan did not answer immediately, and hurriedly asked the thin and tall man next to him in a low voice, "Didn't you say that he was a person wearing eunuch clothes?

Xia Ziyan had already spoken coldly at this time, "You are also trespassers, why don't you go and receive the cane punishment first?"

"Hey, you're ......"

The short and fat man was stopped by words, and when he screamed, he turned his head to look at his companion, as if waiting for his companion to speak for support. But the tall and thin man ignored him, he was looking up at the top of the pavilion, distinguishing something, perhaps because he saw Xia Ziyan's face clearly, his face changed suddenly, and he immediately knelt on one knee, and said in fear, "I don't know if the second prince is here, if you are offended, please ask the second prince to forgive me." As for the trespass in the forbidden garden, the lowly duty originally had no intention of breaking in, but when he saw a suspicious person during the previous inspection, he saw him breaking into this place, and his duty was to follow the intrusion in order to hunt down this person. Humiliation is not a quibble, knowing that he has violated the holy order, he willingly accepts the punishment. ”

He lowered his head and said in a deep voice, while pulling the short and fat man's arm with his hand, although the short and fat man did not react, fortunately he still knelt down first.

Xia Ziyan looked at the two forbidden soldiers kneeling under the pavilion, his cold tone eased, and he said lightly, "You have been ordered to inspect and protect the imperial city, and if you see suspicious people, you will search carefully, which is very good." You are not wrong, and I will not blame you, but I should reward you. ”

Hearing this, the expressions on the faces of the two forbidden soldiers were obviously relaxed, as if they were relieved. But Xia Ziyan said again, "As for the eunuch you saw, it's my person. ”

The two forbidden soldiers glanced at each other, but they didn't want the short and fat man to suddenly make a noise, and they couldn't stop it, "The Holy Lord has ordered that no trespass is allowed here." The second prince appears here, how can we explain to the above......"

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly screamed in pain, he looked at the tall and thin man suspiciously, but found that his companion was glaring at him, and he had an inexplicable look on his face, but he also closed his mouth because of this.

Xia Ziyan saw it clearly in the pavilion, and said, "Remember, you didn't come to the Forbidden Garden, so you haven't seen me either." But you are very dedicated to serving the country, and I see that in my eyes, I will naturally not let you contribute in vain, and in the future, I will give you the reward you deserve. ”

The two forbidden soldiers continued to nod their heads in fear, and Xia Ziyan added, "If you remember, go back and forth." ”

Seeing that the figures of the two forbidden soldiers had disappeared from sight, Wu Yan was still lying down, and there was no movement. Seeing this, Xia Ziyan couldn't help it first, and said, "Get up, what are you doing lying on the ground, what has become of a daughter's family." ”

When Wu Yan heard this, he was taken aback. There is a reason for being surprised, she is hiding in the shadow of the rockery, even if he is high and far away, it is impossible to see his face clearly at this time, not to mention that it is a girl? More importantly, his tone is extremely gentle, and the gentleness seems to have a hint of pampering. She had seen him when he was calm, when he was indifferent, but she had never seen this before. Wu Yan thought as he got up from the grass, and the tiger patted the dust on his body before raising his head to look at the pavilion.

Xia Ziyan had already stood up from the pavilion at this time, he glanced at Wu Yan inadvertently, and seemed to be stunned, his eyes fell on Wu Yan's face, as if he had recognized Wu Yan, but his eyes finally fell on the eunuch clothes on Wu Yan's body, and a look of surprise flashed on his face, but after all, he had confirmed Wu Yan's identity in his heart, so he asked, "Why are you?"

Wu Yan also saw the surprised look on his face, thinking that he had been taken aback by his strange tone before, but at this moment he was stunned and surprised because he recognized who he was, and couldn't help but feel extremely funny, and said, "Otherwise, you wanted to be a hero to save beauty, but you found that you saved the wrong person and became a hero by mistake?"

When Xia Ziyan heard this, he lowered his head and shook his head slightly, and when he raised his head again, the look of surprise on his face had disappeared and he regained his calm. He jumped down from the pavilion, stood firmly beside Wu Yan, turned his head to look at Wu Yan's outfit, and said, "I thought it was my little sister before, because she, like you, has also stolen through eunuch clothes, and her body shape is similar to yours. I'm going to be mistaken for it. ”

"Your little sister, isn't that the princess?"

Xia Ziyan nodded, and suddenly said, "She's a princess and other princesses, I don't know who has influenced her since she was a child, she doesn't have the heart of a daughter's family, and she doesn't have a little bit of a daughter's family, do you know what she wears eunuch clothes for?"
