Chapter 176: Late at Night, Chance Encounter
84_84251Seeing the splendid figure on the side face, Su Qianling said goodbye to the four princes and Er Lan, and the moment he bypassed the flower garden, his eyes fell on the two people who were still standing in place, his face was a little awe-inspiring, and there was always a sense of oppression in his heart, which was a sense of oppression from the feeling that the four princes and Er Lan were together, and he couldn't say it clearly, but he had to care.
"Third Miss, it's better not to get too close to this Miss Erlan in the future!" Jinxiu's face was gloomy, and he saw that there was no one left, so he spoke.
Su Qianling was stunned, her face was a little puzzled, she turned her face to look at Jinxiu, and deliberately pretended not to know: "I think this Miss Erlan is a gentle person, why is Sister Jinxiu like this?" ”
After a pause, he stopped and looked around to see that there was no one, and then he took a step forward towards Su Qianling, and tried his best to lower his voice: "I saw Miss Er Lan punish the people around her before, pouring hot water on the surface of people's feet, what a cruel heart!" ”
While speaking, Jinxiu's face brought out a little frightened, thinking about the picture she saw before, she still couldn't help but tremble in her heart, how could there be such a ruthless woman!
Su Qianling had a look of surprise on her face, her eyes fell on Jinxiu's face, but she didn't speak.
"I told the princess and Mother Wan, they didn't believe me, and told me not to talk nonsense, it's really depressing, Third Miss, don't get close to this femme fatale!" As she spoke, Jinxiu looked in the direction of Er Lan and the Four Princes, with a little nervousness on her face, saying bad things about others, after all, she was weak-hearted.
A faint smile appeared on her face, Su Qianling nodded as if she was in response to Jinxiu, she and Zhiyan are both straightforward people, although they have a fast mouth, they don't lie, not to mention, they also have a strange feeling in their hearts, this gentle Miss Erlan is not as simple as it seems on the surface.
The moment Su Qianyue saw Su Qianling, her idle heart was steady, she stretched out her hand to pull Su Qianling, her eyes flashed, it was good to see that she was safe and sound.
Listening to Jinxiu talk about that nightmare, Su Qianling now looked at the expression of her eldest sister, and couldn't help but feel a warmth in her heart, just like when she was a child, while talking, she was eating snacks, although it was simple, but it was extremely comfortable, and in the blink of an eye, it was time for dinner.
Today is to welcome the dinner party specially set by Su Qianling, Er Lan was also invited over, still dressed plainly, and under the night, her picturesque face was a little more coquettish.
The fourth prince saw that Su Qianyue pulled Su Qianling by his side, smiled helplessly, and then sat on the other side, and between words, he reached out and sandwiched Su Qianyue's favorite dishes to her.
Su Qianyue was stunned, looking at the affection in the eyes of the four princes, and there was a bit of shyness on her face, whether she liked it or not, she ate it all.
In the distance, Er Lan looked at the two of them with affection and affection, still with a light smile on their faces, picking up the dishes of the maid's cloth, eating in small bites, with an elegant and unpretentious posture.
It looks like a harmonious picture, but Su Qianling smelled a different taste from it, it is this unsteady feeling, even if the delicacies of the mountains are placed in front of him, it is like chewing wax.
After eating a meal, Su Qianling only felt that his face was stiff, although the light smile was just an expression, but he was tired all the time, looking at Su Qianling and the four princes, Su Qianling excused himself for being sleepy and went back to the house early.
Leaning on the beauty couch by the window, Su Qianling was holding a book in his hand but couldn't read a word, thinking carefully about the memories of the four princes in his previous life, his mind was a mess, he only remembered the impression of the general outline of this person, the people around him, he didn't know anything about what happened, in his previous life, he was really confused!
Somehow, the moment when the eldest brother was injured in the ghost soldier training ground suddenly flashed in his mind, Su Qianling instantly felt a cold coming from everywhere, if it was really like what he thought, it would be really terrible!
The night was getting deeper, and a black shadow flashed quickly in the abandoned Mu Mansion, and it was almost impossible to see his figure in the dark night, and when the black shadow bypassed the front hall and turned to a hidden wing in the backyard, there was a sudden light in the room.
A light is like a bean, although it is faint, but the face of the person who came is clearly illuminated, and now he is standing in the house with a ruddy face and sharp eyes, isn't it Duanmu Gaoyang, who was almost crippled by Su Qianling some time ago!
"Master, we found this in a small quagmire in the backyard!" The guard saluted, and then handed the things in his hand to Duanmu Gaoyang, and there seemed to be a little surprise on his face.
Duanmu Gaoyang's face was gloomy, he took the brocade package, and when he untied it and touched the small clothes inside, his face moved slightly, and then he reached out and picked up the delicate little clothes.
didn't seem to notice that the clothes were two sets, and when Duanmu Gaoyang picked up one piece of clothing, the other one followed, and then fell down again.
Duanmu Gaoyang was stunned, compared to picking up the clothes, the two things were exactly the same, and then looking at the things in the package, there were still two copies, exactly the same, there was no difference!
"What's suspicious about this package besides?" Duanmu was a little excited in his heart, but his face was still cold and gloomy, his eyes fell on the guard's face, and his eyes became deeper and deeper.
With just one glance, the guard quickly lowered his head and didn't dare to look directly at Duanmu Gaoyang again, and his voice barely remained calm: "Before my subordinates came over, I saw half of the calligraphy and painting in the burned room, but they couldn't tear it off when they were pasted on the wall, and they didn't move for a while." ”
Duanmu Gao Yang paused, and then followed the guard towards the burned house in his mouth, his heart became more and more excited, now everything seems to be connected by a line, this line has been found, so he almost walked forward along this line!
The house that had been burned down for many years still exuded a burning smell, and he was a little uncomfortable just after entering, Duanmu Gaoyang couldn't help coughing, his eyes inadvertently swept over the wall, and there was a sudden hint of sharpness between his eyes.
In the painting, you can vaguely see that it is two children, both with bracelets on their fat little hands, looking at each other and laughing, one side is burned by the fire and it is not real, the other can probably recognize some details, this child has a mole the size of a red bean on his right shoulder, yes, it is a mole, not dirty, while confirming this, Duanmu Gaoyang clenched his hands and couldn't help but tremble in his heart!
Beans, Duanmu Gaoyang remembered that this person was a distant cousin of the fourth aunt of the General's Mansion, but when he was afraid that people would go out to find it, this would be like evaporating from the world, and there was no news, and he had already seen the dawn, but the clues in his hand were cut off like this, which was really a fire, and now, he had to check it out in person.
Put the found things in a brocade box, Duanmu Gao Yang dodged and climbed onto the high wall, and the figure disappeared again in the night, but he didn't find a pair of deep eyes looking at him in the shade of the trees in the distance.
Under the night, Su Qianling's clear eyes widened, and he didn't feel sleepy at all, and he couldn't read a word in the book in his hand, so he was bored, so he put on a jacket and walked in the yard.
Zhiyan followed on the side, seeing that Su Qianling didn't seem to be in a very good mood, and she didn't dare to speak, but she still couldn't figure it out, the third lady had always wanted to accompany the eldest lady, but now that she is here, why does she always look like she has something on her mind?
Thinking of the words of Jinxiu before, Zhiyan's heart trembled, but after all, it was a dream, can you believe such a mysterious thing?
Pacing slowly, Su Qianling didn't know how far she had walked, and she didn't know where she had gone, but she just followed the road under her feet, even if she didn't know her, she definitely wouldn't get lost.
In the courtyard in front of him, the yellow line was dim, not as brightly lit as other courtyards, but despite the desolation, the lights were still on, Su Qianling's heart was slightly paused, and before Zhiyan could say words of dissuasion, he raised his feet and walked towards the courtyard.
There is no grandeur and beauty in the room, but some quaint tables, chairs and bookshelves, and under the dim candlelight, there is a little more antique taste.
Su Qianling's face paused slightly, and then walked in lightly, the flickering candlelight in the room kept swaying with the night wind, and on the edge of the desk, a bewitching figure was even more colorful under the candlelight, and the back of Xianyi reflected the beating candle flame, but it added a bit of decline, it turned out to be Er Lan!
As if he was also aware of the movement behind him, Er Lan's face moved slightly, and when he turned around and saw Su Qianling, the expression on his face changed significantly, and then there was a touch of embarrassment on his face, and he put away the basic books scattered on the table.
"The third lady hasn't slept yet?" Er Lan put away the book, raised his head and asked Su Qianling, and inadvertently, he hid a small notebook between his cuffs, silently, and even Su Qianling didn't notice it.
Su Qianling's gaze quickly swept over the books that Er Lan was putting away, her face moved slightly, and she probably saw the names of a few books, all of which were things that men had set up in the army, and they really couldn't be with Er Lan's temperament, but why did she choose to cover up her reading like this in the middle of the night?
Su Qianling couldn't figure it out for a while, so she simply didn't want to.
"I couldn't sleep in a different place, so I went out for a walk, and I didn't bother you abruptly, right?" A few words were said very casually, and Su Qianling's gaze swept over Er Lan's face, fading out a little scrutiny.
The corners of Er Lan's lips hooked up a light smile, and her eyes fell on Su Qianling's face, as gentle as the morning sun, and there was a faint warmth in her eyes.
"I wonder what kind of book Miss Erlan read just now?" Su Qianling looked at the bookshelves everywhere, and asked a little casually.
Er Lan's face moved slightly, towards the personal maid who couldn't see him everywhere, and a gloom flashed silently in his eyes.
The sideways glance still captured the fleeting expression in Er Lan's eyes, Su Qianling's heart moved slightly, and there was still a light smile on his face, as if what he said just now was just a casual sentence.
"It's just a few poems that I like, and there's nothing special about it." Er Lan's face softened slightly, and he looked at Su Qianling between words, but his eyes flickered involuntarily.
A shallow smile was provoked on his face, and Su Qianling showed a faint smile between his eyes, noncommittal, but he couldn't help but sneer in his heart, poetry? It's clearly a gossip bureau in the array, and she can tell this kind of lie that she blurts out!
Su Qianling retracted her gaze and landed on the setting on the table, her eyes touched the incense that was about to burn out, and her heart couldn't help but tremble, it turned out to be like this!.
