Xiao Chu turned his head, looked at me with his eyes, and said, "Before leaving Daye, I asked General Liu to leave some forged traces in the mountain forest where you were kidnapped. "The route refers to, the people sent by King Ning should be looking for that road, just going in the opposite direction to Yingtian."

The corners of his mouth moved.

I thought in my heart that if King Ning sent out his pursuers, I was afraid that he would not only go to the route that left his mark.

Raising my head to look at Xiao Chu, I said in a low voice, "Will there be suspicions over there?" ”

It stands to reason that if there are many people, the soldiers are not tired of deceit, how can they choose only one way to catch up?

My concerns are not unfounded.

Xiao Chu narrowed his eyes, glanced at me with deep eyes, and said with a smile: "General Liu is used to playing this kind of trick, not to mention a team of secret guards who are blinded, even if King Ning sends a large army to find it, he may not be able to guess it thoroughly." ”

"His ability to attack the west has been practiced in many bloody rains, you don't have to worry."

Xiao Chu looked at me playfully and said unhurriedly.

A heart was slightly lowered, and I thought back to the strange place in his words just now, and couldn't help but say, "You sent a secret guard to find it?" ”

I looked at him with some surprise and raised an eyebrow.

"Yes, the woman sent to the palace by Daye City was actually robbed halfway, and it was still a mountain bandit who hijacked him, he just sat in the position, can he afford to lose that face?"

He turned his head and stood sideways, his figure long and handsome, his deep eyes flashing with waves, and his tone also carried a bit of mockery.

"It's best to send the guards out to find it."

A shallow smile appeared on Xiao Chu's lips, and his eyes were sharp.

"The news is strictly hidden, and I am afraid that even your father and mother in Daye City don't know about it."

I looked up at him in a daze, and muttered, "There are so many people in the accompanying team, not to mention the girls who sent it." There are so many guards alone, won't these people leak the news? ”

Xiao Chu raised his hand and knocked on my head and said, "Who dares to say more, is King Ning a good match?" ”

He looked at me with a smirk. Instantaneously frowned and said, "You are by my side, don't worry about those things." Just take care of yourself. "Everything else, it's all about me." His clear eyes sparkled with water, revealing the warm smile that I was familiar with.

"It's like I'm a rice worm." I complained.

As soon as the words fell, Xiao Chu's clear laughter was exchanged: "Rice worms are the most enviable in the world, and when you make rice worms, you often have a lot of rice behind you, so it's still a granary." There is no need to worry about it in this life. ”

He paced to the new desk by the window, with a few food boxes and a pot of tea on it.

He lowered his head and poured a glass, then opened the food box and glanced at it. He chose a snack and handed it to me, saying, "Try the crispy rolls of Lianhu Zhai, a time-honored brand in Yingtiancheng, they are no worse than the chefs of Gong's family." ”

He looked a little unnatural, and paused and said, "My mother doesn't like the crispy rolls made by the chefs in the house, so when she thinks about this, she asks people to go directly to Lianhu Zhai to buy them." ”

"When she was pregnant with her little sister, she had a special desire to eat. couldn't wait, my father asked the guards in the house to buy it directly, and they worked hard all the way, and others thought something was wrong. ”

"Since you like it so much, why don't you invite the dim sum chef from Lianhu Zhai you said to your home."

The corners of Xiao Chu's mouth hooked up and smiled: "You are the same as what my father said." "But my mother said so. I'm afraid that the shortbread will change its flavor, so it's better to buy it on the street when you want to eat it. ”

"These were all things a long time ago, at that time, I was not at the height of my desk, but I remember them clearly, and now I think about it, I still remember it vividly."

Xiao Chu's face was a little lost, and there was a faint hint of darkness in his hoarse voice, and a gloomy color flashed in his eyes, and he lowered his eyes and said.

"I'm sorry." After a while, he apologized to me for his distraction, and then raised his hand to hand the crisp roll to my mouth, "Xiao Ling'er, try it." ”

I took a bite of it, and sure enough, it tasted so beautiful, and I couldn't help but smile: "It's not strange to be able to make this taste, so people miss it." ”

After a few sips of tea, I straightened my hair by the bronze mirror, usually these things are taken care of by Cui'er, and I am inevitably not very skilled in doing it myself.

Xiao Chu couldn't stand it anymore, so he couldn't help but help, combed my hair properly, and looked at it with satisfaction.

He looked at me with narrow eyes and said, "Millet worm, I have delayed a lot of effort, and I will not be happy to visit the night market later, so don't blame me." ”

"Which one blames you?" I gave him a blank look.

He raised his hand and picked up a strand of long hair from my forehead, stroked it gently, and then let it go and smiled, "Don't go yet." ”

The two of them walked out of the courtyard all the way and turned into the alley.

The alley was deserted when it came, and it is the same now, and you have to walk up a section to get to the really lively street.

Xiao Chu held me with one hand, and with the other hand, he took out a paper fan from his arms and opened it quickly.

"Ah," I said, with my mouth wide open, "this fan hasn't been seen for a long time, so it was with you?" ”

"I took it with me when I left."

"Why don't I know at all, you Xiao Chu still have a hobby of being a gentleman on the beam and holding sheep by hand?"

"I also said, in Qinglian Nunnery, I gave you a jade pendant, and I didn't even have a return gift, but fortunately, I thought about it, and took a paper fan when I left."

"Xiao Ling'er, I came back to Ying Tianzhi's eyes for more than two months, if I hadn't been carrying it all the time, how could I have missed you?"

"There has to be a sustenance."

The first time he told me about what happened in those days, every time I met with him for six months, he didn't say a word about the injury to his eye.

Seizing this opportunity, I pondered for a while, and then took the opportunity to ask: "How did you get it in the first place, how did you get hurt?" ”

I don't expect him to tell the truth, I just want to know the rough.

Xiao Chu's eyes darkened, and his sharp eyes fell into the distance and said, "There is a good opportunity for that enthusiastic person to plan for me." ”

This is not the first time he has mentioned the so-called "warm-hearted man".

When I thought of his injury, a trace of distress swelled up in my heart, and I couldn't help but comfort him: "Without that person, I wouldn't have met you." General Liu entrusted you to me because you were injured. "yes." Xiao Chu turned his feelings, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth. said lightly, "I should thank him." "Xiao Chu. I don't understand one thing, I don't really understand, why you were in Qinglian Nunnery that day, and you didn't even know what I looked like, and you actually would" I couldn't speak. "What will happen?" He lowered his head and looked at me with a smile and said, "What does Xiao Ling'er want to say?" "It's just weird," I said, plucking up my courage. I have never heard of such a thing in the play, but I didn't expect to encounter it myself. "But there's another thing, and it's weird. I recall that at that time, when I was sitting in the carriage and passing through the woods, I had an indescribable premonition, so I asked the coachman to stop. "And then. I met General Liu with you. "It's as if someone in the shadows is manipulating the arrangement."

The scene of the encounter came to my mind, and for a moment I was in a trance, and I pursed my lips and stopped talking.

Taking advantage of my stunned moment, Xiao Chu held my hand and said, "If it is said to be manipulation, it should be the favor of God." “

"I was very badly injured. If I can't stop running for dozens of miles, I'm afraid my eyes won't be cured. ”

"Yes, I'm your savior." I retracted that dazed mood, raised my head and broke free of his hand and smiled, "So it's not too much to be a rice worm in your house for the time being." ”

"It's not going to work." Xiao Chu walked a few steps quickly, still holding me, he slowly raised his eyes, and said with a slight smile, "There are many people in the night market, in case you get separated." ”

He explained to me, I followed his wishes and stopped breaking free, and walked through the alley, Xiao Chu whispered in my ear: "It's not enough for a life-saving benefactor to be a rice worm." ”

"So what?" I asked him with wide eyes, and when I saw the smile on his face that couldn't be hidden, the smile on my lips deepened.

"You can ask me to repay it, I don't mind repaying you at all." He smiled at me and said, "The person who is holding back the favor is decisive and has a clear purpose, and I quite appreciate such a person." ”

That's right!

I pretended to be calm and straightened my clothes, searching my mind for the stories I had heard in the drama before.

After a while, I wrenched my finger and quipped: "I also think this statement is very good, but it depends on who it is, and the lion can't open his mouth." "But you really don't look like you're short of money to spend, just by looking at how you decorate the house, I already have experienced."

My eyes wandered, I stopped, looked at Xiao Chu from head to toe, then looked up at the sky, and smiled at him:

"Since it's all seen by me, then you really have to repay me well, I like silver, gold, jade, coral, in short, I like all valuable things, you look at it, and"

Xiao Chu waved his hand to interrupt me and said, "You are not the biological daughter of Ye Shenzhi, the richest man in Daye City?" Is it a fake? ”

I looked at him puzzled, and for a moment I couldn't speak in my throat, did I ever tell him that I fell into the pond and woke up and didn't remember what had happened before?

I don't think so. "The Ye family will not lack money if they lack anything, you grew up in a pile of money since you were a child, do you still like mundane things like gold and silver?" "Where is vulgar, who would think that there is a lot of money, it is true that the Ye family is rich, but those are my father's, I saved your life, you owe it, but mine." "It's clear." The corners of his mouth curled.

Xiao Chu pondered for a moment and said, "According to what you say, although I don't worry about spending money, it is true that none of that money is mine. "There's only one way to repay you for not being able to use their money."

I turned my head to look at him curiously.

"Make a promise." He laughed, "Meets your criteria, and it's reasonable." ”
