Chapter 30: Tracking
It wasn't until Shangguan Tao walked away that Chen Mengdie got out of bed. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
When I opened the door, I saw Li Wei and the housekeeper still guarding the door, but one was awake and the other was asleep.
"Princess." Li Wei looked at her, a flash of surprise in his eyes.
"It's windy outside, let's go inside and sit down." In fact, the wind outside is not very strong, but it is late at night and the wind is a little cool.
She smiled, revealing a pair of shallow dimples, in the moonlight, her face was slightly pale, looking like a weak doll, Li Wei's heart couldn't help but pwitch, and the ghost followed her into the house.
When Li Wei slowly entered the room, Chen Mengdie was already sitting at the square table waiting for him. At this time, she was holding a cup of hot tea and looking at him with a shallow smile.
Although the princess's expression was very soft, Li Wei felt uneasy, and he stood cramped in place, never looking directly at the person in front of him.
"Am I fierce?" Chen Mengdie's head was tilted, and her appearance was innocent.
"The princess is kind and gentle, not fierce." Li Wei answered honestly.
"Then why are you so far away?" Chen Mengdie stretched out her hand and gestured, "Come and sit." ”
"You are a princess, I am a subordinate, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to do this." Although the princess is dead, it is the blood of the royal family that flows in his bones, and he dare not surpass this relationship.
"Forget about identity, we're just ordinary friends now," Chen Mengdie said sadly, "I just want to chat with friends, so don't be so restrained, come and sit." ”
Li Wei saw her earnest, so he obediently walked over and sat opposite her.
Chen Mengdie stretched out her hand to open the window, looked at the bright moon outside the window in amazement, and said in a low voice: "Brother Li, I have a pimple in my heart, it makes me feel painful, I hope you can help me untie it." ”
"The subordinates are willing to help the princess solve her worries." Li Wei looked at her and said sincerely.
"In that case, then I won't beat around the bush," Chen Mengdie's tone suddenly turned cold, she turned her head to look at him and said, "Tell me, how did my brother die?" ”
Li Wei lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "Princess, my subordinates don't know. ”
"There's no way you don't know!" Chen Mengdie stood up suddenly, propped her hands on the table, stared at Li Wei fiercely and said word by word, "Let me ask you one last time, how did my brother die?" ”
"My mission is to protect the princess, and I don't know anything else." Li Wei clenched his fists quietly, the events of that day were the regrets and shame of his life, he lived in the world in order to protect the princess, only in this way can he be worthy of the king, and his conscience can gain a trace of stability, he doesn't say it, not only for himself, but also for the princess.
Chen Mengdie clapped her hands and applauded, "What a loyal subordinate!" My brother really didn't misread someone! ”
Chen Mengdie helped him pour hot tea, she raised the teacup herself, and said in admiration: "Come, I will replace the wine with tea, toast you!" ”
Li Wei stared at the light green tea, hesitated for a moment, and finally raised his head and drank it all.
He turned the teacup upside down, it was empty, Chen Mengdie saw him drink tea, and slowly raised a smile, that smile was as bright as a flower, but in Li Wei's opinion, it gradually became blurred.
Chen Mengdie said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Brother Li. ”
"Princess...... You can't go......" Li Wei staggered to his feet and tried to stop Chen Mengdie, but the power of the medicine happened to attack, he didn't hold it up, and fell to the ground with a thud.
In the dark night, the leaves were waving, and a pair of eyes silently paid attention to Chen Mengdie's figure.
Chu Palace, Kunyu Palace, back garden.
The melodious sound of the piano murmurs like flowing water, the breeze blows slowly, and the fragrance of flowers wafts through the silent night.
A woman dressed in red was caressing the piano under the gazebo, another man leaned on the backrest, his eyes closed and listened to the music, and several palace ladies and eunuchs were waiting for the dispatch, all of them breathing cautiously for fear of disturbing His Highness.
Chu Ziyu slowly opened his eyes, and what he saw was a silver full moon, and the moonlight was hazy, which reminded him of Furong's face.
"I wonder if Your Highness likes this song?" Murong Lan asked softly.
"I like it." Chu Ziyu set his eyes on her, his eyes were very evil, forcing her to blush, and she couldn't help but hang her head.
"Since Your Highness likes it, can you play another song for the slave?"
"Stop playing," Chu Ziyu pulled her into his arms, lifted her chin, looked at her delicate and gentle face, and said lightly: "Let's do something interesting, how about it?" ”
When Murong Lan heard this, her ears turned red, and she asked cautiously, "I don't know what His Highness said about the interesting thing, what is it?" ”
The night wind gusted, Murong Lan blindfolded, and said coquettishly: "Your Highness, I'll count one, two, three, and I'll start." ”
Although Murong Lan looked very happy, she was in a very bad mood, she couldn't have imagined that the interesting thing His Highness said turned out to be hide and seek, alas, hide and seek is hide and seek, and she is also with Her Highness.
She touched it carefully for a while, but she didn't touch anything, she didn't know where His Highness had gone, Murong Lan was a little deflated, suddenly, she touched someone, Murong Lan didn't have time to think about it, she tore off the cover and said happily: "Found it, found it!" ”
She thought she had found His Royal Highness, but she didn't expect to find the princess, the smile on her face suddenly froze, and Murong Lan hurriedly saluted, "Slave and maid see the princess." ”
Hearing the sound of "popping", Tian Pearl raised her hand and gave her a slap, and five obvious red handprints suddenly appeared on Murong Lan's fair face, and the place where she was beaten was hot and painful.
"The shameless little goblin dares to seduce His Highness! You don't look at your identity, are you worthy of Your Highness? Tian Pearl pointed at her and scolded angrily.
"The slave doesn't dare, the slave doesn't ......" Before Murong Lan finished speaking, Tian Pearl slapped her twice.
"Don't talk back!"
Murong Lan had no choice but to cover her cheeks, her head was bored and she didn't speak, she was very aggrieved in her heart, although she was afraid and hated Tian Zhu, but she couldn't do anything.
"In the future, I will see that His Highness is far away, otherwise I will ruin your face!" Tian Pearl pinched her chin and asked fiercely, "Did you hear clearly?" ”
"The slave hears me clearly." Murong Lan replied cautiously.
When Tian Pearl saw her cowardly appearance, she knew that she couldn't become a big climate, so she casually reprimanded her and left with everyone.
Murong Lan silently tidied up the guqin and looked around nostalgically, until she was sure that His Royal Highness was indeed not here, and then she left in disappointment.
It wasn't until everyone had left that Chu Ziyu emerged from the darkness, and he said behind him, "Come out." ”
Immediately after that, a black shadow flashed, and a man in black knelt beside him.
"What, there's news?" Chu Ziyu raised his eyebrows, although his face was calm, there was a trace of turmoil in his heart.
"Yes, Your Highness." The man in black replied meticulously.
The breeze slowly rolled up the corners of Chu Ziyu's clothes, he looked up at the bright moon, was silent for a moment, and finally opened his lips and said: "Prepare the horse, go out of the palace!" ”
At his command, a platoon of guards appeared beside him, preparing everything he needed.
