25. The night is quiet

25 The night is quiet

Xiao Yu took out the chestnut cake from his arms and placed them in front of him one by one, his eyes were quiet and deep.

"Prince, King Hui, King Gong, Little Five, Little Six, Little Seven......" He tapped in front of each chestnut cake with his fingertips, muttering to himself, "The palace must be very lively tonight." ”

It is even more deeply exposed, and the palace, which was once very lively, is not lively in the middle of the night.

There was a person standing against the railing in the Great Inner Forbidden Land, whispering the same words to Xiao Yu at the same time.

"Chengren, Chengyi, Chengli, Chengzhi, Chengxin, Xinning......" The person who said these words was Xiao Qing, the son of heaven of the Great Heaven/Dynasty.

There was a breeze at night, and on the high platform in front of the Qianqing Palace, only Xiao Qing and the old eunuch Cai Fu were standing.

Cai Fu bent his back and said with concern: "Your Majesty, the night is already very deep. If you don't rest, it's time to go to court in a moment. ”

Xiao Qing looked back, but was silent.

Cai Fu said again: "Your Majesty, the old slave dares to guess, are you worried about several highnesses?" ”

Xiao Qing's expression changed slightly, and he was silent for a long time before saying: "The prince is loyal and benevolent, but he lacks means. The second child is a straw bag, don't mention it. The fifth and sixth are very young, and they don't know how powerful the government is. Tonight, it seems that the third child has been training outside for a few years, and he has some ability to make a decision to judge the situation. ”

"The old slave didn't dare to say anything, but seeing that His Royal Highness was heroic, he did have a bit of His Majesty's demeanor back then."

"Even you think so?"

"ι™›xiΓ ......"

"This is the third child's specialty. If the prince were not the prince, he might not be the opponent of the third child. Xiao Qing let out a long sigh and raised his head to look at the moon, "On the night of the full moon, it should be the time for a family reunion, but there is always a lack of one person in my family. ”

"Your Majesty is talking about the Fourth Highness?"

"After so many years, he has never returned to this palace, and time has not been able to erase the gap between me and him. If none of this had happened back then, his body would not be what it is now, and the position of the prince should also be his. ”

"Your Majesty, the old slave knows that you are thinking about the Fourth Highness, and I happen to tell you something. Didn't the old slave often run outside the palace recently, and Tang Ai, who saw the six doors, seemed to be very close to His Royal Highness. ”

"Tang Ai? Is that Tang Ai who was sent to the border by Liu Heyu? ”

"Yes, that's him. You also rewarded him when he came back, and he followed Lord Liu to the palace a month ago. This time, he was also responsible for the murders of several adults. ”

"The surname is Tang...... Go and check the background of this Tang Ai. ”

Tang Ai was still in the Xishan courtyard at this time.

She stayed in the room on this side, listened to the silence outside, and touched her own damp clothes, and finally closed the door, raised her arm to open the cabinet door, and took out a set of elegant gowns.

In addition to a few sets of clothes in the cabinet, there are also several bundles of scrolls on the upper floor. Tang Ai accidentally touched a bunch, and the scroll spread out on the ground, which was also a portrait of an extraordinary painter.

The woman in the painting, Tang Ai, has seen it, and it is the same person as the painting hanging in the study.

According to Xiao Yu, this is his mother.

Xiao Yu's mother is really beautiful, so beautiful that she is like moisturizing things silently, so beautiful that it is rare to make Tang Ai jealous. Tang Ai put the scroll back where it belonged, and those eyes that were hard to find in the world still appeared in his mind.

The eyes drifted away from her, and the outline of the whole face faded before her eyes.

It's not a woman, but it's a man, a man who always has a faint smile on his face.

The man is Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu was born well, and his mother estimated that he had to take up more than half of the credit. The mother and son look alike, and the most similar thing is the pair of peach blossom eyes, quiet and elegant, shallow spring/light.

Tang Ai was thinking nonsense.

She also soon found herself thinking wildly.

What the hell are you thinking about! She scolded herself, shook off her new clothes, and took off her old blouse.

When he took off his clothes, Tang Ai realized that something was wrong.

From the moment she woke up, she felt that her body was inexplicably relaxed, and even the breath she inhaled was more than usual.

At this moment, the truth was revealedβ€”her corset was loosened and hung on her belly.

Tang Ai was startled, but he was not surprised.

She took out her professional detective literacy, analyzed it carefully, and then thought that the loosening of her chest was purely an accident, and her movement in the water was too large, which caused this accident. At the same time, she also thought that Xiao Yu had no reason to know about this, because she was very neatly dressed when she woke up, and Xiao Yu didn't comment even half a word on her chest.

In short, there is no danger.

The fifth watch has almost passed, but Xiao Yu has not come back yet. Tang Ai couldn't sit still, so after changing into new clothes, he walked out of the house lightly, looking for the direction of the lamp. But halfway through, she suddenly turned back into the house.

Because she thought of one thing - she changed into clean clothes, but Xiao Yu didn't have it yet.

When he came out of the house again, Tang Ai had a set of plain clothes in his arms.

The place where it is still bright is Xiao Yu's room, and when you get closer, you can smell a trace of the faint fragrance of osmanthus.

The door of the house was not closed, Tang Ai first saw the osmanthus nectar on the table, and then saw Xiao Yu's cat in the corner, with his head down as if he was repairing something.

She deliberately increased her steps and sent Xiao Yu a notice of "she is coming".

Xiao Yu looked up at her and pulled out a wicked smile: "What's the matter, do you miss me?" ”

His face was still excessively pale, but his voice sounded better than before.

Tang Ai glared at the round eyes and straightened his face unnaturally: "You always want to do one thing at a time, who knows what you're doing, can't I come over and take a look!" ”

Xiao Yu's eyes fell on the clothes in her arms, and she smiled even more unreliable: "That clothes...... Did you bring it to me? ”

"What is for you, for you. Your clothes are all torn, change them! Tang Ai suddenly felt embarrassed, and quickly put his clothes on the table, speaking quickly and moving faster.

"God, I'm really flattered to have Lord Xiao Tang personally deliver the clothes. Oh no, I should say that I was lucky in my three lives. Xiao Yu pretended to be grateful to Dade.

"Put away your pretentious face!" Tang Ai really didn't want to answer the phone.

Xiao Yu said with a smile: "Hey, before dawn, do you want to rest for a while?" ”

Tang Ai immediately shook his head and said, "Zhang Qirui hasn't found it yet, who will have the mind to rest!" ”

"If you don't have the heart, you can come and stay with me for a while." Xiao Yu smiled and made a small corner for her.

Tang Ai stared at Xiao Yu for a while, and finally his butt sank, and he also stuffed himself into the corner, and sat next to Xiao Yu.

This time, she finally saw what he was doing.

There were two prosthetic limbs in front of Xiao Yu, the one that was broken by Tang Ai had been disassembled, and the other one looked brand new and was being debugged in his arms.

Only one of his left feet was exposed under the hem of his clothes, and the stump of his right leg was covered by his clothes. But even so, Tang Ai could still see that his right leg was broken at the knee, and there was a small protrusion under the hem of his clothes.

Xiao Yu's kung fu is very good, and his light skills are unparalleled in the world, which Tang Ai was very sure of when he first met Xiao Yu.

At that time, Xiao Yu could even step on the snow without a trace.

It's just hard for her to imagine that a person who can practice light skills so well only has one hand and one leg. Most able-bodied people spend their entire lives studying the body method, and they may not be able to achieve half of Xiao Yu's achievements.

"Xiao Yu, do you mind if I ask you......" Tang Ai wanted to know again but didn't dare to ask.

Xiao Yu didn't seem to care: "Ask me how my hands and feet were broken?" Hehe, this is really a sad story. In short, it was something that happened to me when I was a kid. Picking up a life and paying a small price is fair and worth it. ”

The sad story that came out of his mouth was not sad at all.

He looked pretty bright.

In two more moments, the sky will be white.

Xiao Yu put on his new prosthetic leg and stood up slowly against the wall.

Tang Ai wanted to help him, but he refused.

"New things always have to be run-in, this is not a big deal for you, and I'll find your help later." He leaned against the wall and paced slowly, still visibly lame.

After walking around the house, Xiao Yu returned to Tang Ai.

"How could the wise and resolute Lord Tang be useless?" There was a sparkle in his eyes, "Come, it's time for you to help." I'm not going to do anything like this now, so you can help me change my clothes! ”

He asked her to help him change his clothes. Tang Ai was sure he heard correctly.

Her mood is delicate.

On the one hand, she felt that Xiao Yu's request was a little excessive, and on the other hand, she thought that he should say so.

Anyway, she knew early on that Xiao Yu was this dead virtue, no matter what words came out of his mouth, she didn't feel surprised.

"Stand still!" Tang Ai picked up the new clothes on the table with one hand, and untied the old clothes on Xiao Yu's body with the other.

Xiao Yu looked at her with a smile and obediently put on a standing posture: "Just wear clothes, you don't need to change your pants." ”

Tang Ai'er's roots were hot, and he nodded quickly.

Xiao Yu's body is clear, and when he takes off his shirt, his body looks even thinner. Beneath the blasphemous clothes, the long bones of his complete half of his body are faintly visible, and the other side has a missing body, but it is also exposed in a grand manner, and the empty sleeves are gently swaying in the breeze, which makes people sigh when they look at it.

Tang Ai put on his new clothes, and glanced at him by mistake, not only saw his empty sleeve, but also swept his gaze between the knee of his right leg.

She caught a glimpse of the faint blood stains on Xiao Yu's pants.

Xiao Yu just smoothed the hem of his shirt at this moment, as if it was unintentional, but the hem of his clothes covered his legs in an instant.

Tang Ai hurriedly clapped his hands and took two steps back: "Dressed!" ”

"There's Lord Lao Xiaotang."

"Xiao Yu, I still want to ask. Walking for a long time, your legs ...... Will it hurt? ”

"Ha, it's nothing, I'm used to it. After all, being able to walk is better than not being able to. ”

After saying this, Xiao Yu propped up his crutches, leaned against the door to look at the sky, and yawned at Tang Ai: "Now, it's still early, I want to go to sleep, do you want to go together?" ”

"Sleep what to sleep, I'm gone! In any case, I have to find out Zhang Qirui! Tang Ai rushed to the courtyard.

"Don't worry, I'll go with you when it's dawn, in fact, I already know the general location of the incense shop." Xiao Yu moved slowly to her side.

Tang Ai turned around again when he heard this, but he didn't notice that the small room quietly opened a crack at this time.

Crash!

A basin of cold water splashed out, pouring Tang Ai from head to foot.
