"What are you doing in a daze?" Yuan Jue suddenly spoke up, interrupting all my thoughts.

That's when I came back to my senses, "It's nothing. ”

"You haven't sued me yet, why are you with Aunt Yun Chu?" Yuan Jue still couldn't figure it out.

As early as when I was first admitted to the palace, Yuan He had already sent someone to inform Yuan Jue. Yuan Jue found Mrs. Qimo and found that I had not been here, so he found it in the palace again, but what he didn't expect was that I would come over with Yun Chu while talking about it. He didn't know where we came from, but when he saw us, he was already out of breath, and I didn't expect him to lose his temper suddenly.

At that moment just now, he scolded Yun Chu loudly, and I saw the sadness in Yun Chu's eyes.

Ay. How could it be like this?

"Yun Chu asked me to enter the palace," I hesitated how to tell him about this, and after thinking about it, I said again, "Yun Chu came to me to enter the palace, just to tell me that she had heard of a method circulating in the Yibu tribe that could make the Li family recover." ”

That's actually true, Yun Chu did tell me what to do to make Li Shi return to normal. It's just that I didn't tell Yuan Jue how Yun Chu knew, I didn't want Yuan Jue to know too early that there was anything about the Yibu witch.

After I finished speaking, I looked at him again, and secretly made up my mind in my heart, yes, yes, it was not time to sue him for this qiē.

"But why would she know?" Yuan Jue quickly noticed the flaw in my words.

"Well...... "I should have known that I couldn't hide it from him, but I heard him ask me rhetorically." I just started to worry about how to explain it to him, "Hmm...... Probably because Yun Chu and Mrs. Qimo are both from the Yibu tribe, it is naturally possible to have heard of it. ”

Yuan Jue was still skeptical of my words.

"By the way, you know what? It turns out that there are a lot of particularly interesting things about Yibu," I simply diverted his attention, "Yun Chu told me a lot of legends about Yibu, but I didn't expect that there have been Yibu since ancient times, and I never knew that there would be so many new and interesting things between the tribes." ”

Yuan Jue raised the corners of his mouth in response, "I also told my mother." They lived in the tribe as a child. Horses gallop across the grassland, birds sing and flowers are accompanied, hunting and feeding, and in the evening a group of people dance around the campfire. ”

"Really? Sounds good. "Life like that. Probably much freer than the royal palace. No wonder Mrs. Qimo was so reluctant. Forced to give up a free life to marry into the royal palace. You can probably understand her reaction at the time.

And the person who was supposed to be her husband and understood that she had married alone from a foreign country could only snub her. Without giving her warmth and care, without giving her time to get used to this qiē, she got tired of her vexatious trouble. At such a time, she fell out of favor in front of her husband, and instead of being comforted and relieved, she bullied her, and finally made her such a person.

"Do you like it?" Yuan Jue asked.

"Huh?" I didn't react to what he was saying for a moment, and I was stunned for a moment.

"I mean," Yuan Jue looked away, pretending to look around casually, "If you like it, maybe I can take you to see it when I have time." ”

Got time? How can there be time. I felt a sigh of relief in my chest, and when I thought of what Yun Chu said, I always felt a faint pain in my heart, I didn't expect that when I faced Yuan Jue again, I would be so uncomfortable.

"No, do you want to just take a look." Yuan Jue misunderstood my momentary silence, and he was slightly embarrassed, "Or, do you want that kind of life?" ”

Want that life? Living like I used to live in the mountains, I thought like this, and it was as if it was yesterday, but suddenly someone told me that I could never go back. I was trapped in a world that I couldn't breathe and couldn't understand, and I couldn't go back.

"Can't bear the current life? Such an environment," Yuan Jue paused for a moment, "does it make you feel unhappy?" ”

"Yes." I endured everything in my heart and spoke honestly.

I don't know how to help these people, and I don't know how to get out of here. Everyone thought that life was normal, but for me, it was just a dream that I had broken into, and I couldn't accept that it was happening here as if it were real.

Yuan Jue sat next to me, even if I didn't look at him, I could clearly feel the shock in his eyes when I said yes.

I don't know how to deal with him. I miss Yuan Jue outside the dream, but the person in front of me is him and not him. It wasn't until this moment that I remembered Jialan's words, and I had to admit that I was really tempted, I was tempted by Yuan Jue, I would be sad because I couldn't see him, and I would be sad because Yun Chu said that he might have a short life, and at that time, I promised Yun Chu that I was sincere.

"Then ......" Yuan Jue wanted to say something, but he didn't continue, his mouth was tight, and his face was not very good-looking.

I tidied up my feelings before turning my head to look at him. "Are you alright?"

Yuan Jue smiled and took out an object from his sleeve. When I looked closely, I realized that it was a string of chains with bells hanging from them, and the chains were exquisitely made, one ring after another, and the silver chains with small bells made a crisp ring, and the best craftsmen in the city were only such craftsmen. He suddenly got up and reached out to grab my foot.

I was startled and ducked back. I just reacted instinctively, but not as fast as him, and when I did, he grabbed my ankle with one hand, and the other leg was half kneeling in front of me. I tried to pull my foot back from his hand, but as soon as I moved, his hand holding my ankle became even harder, and I felt a heat on my face, very embarrassed, and when I came back to my senses, he had taken off my shoes.

"What do you do?" I screamed in panic, and the temperature of his palms reached me through my ankles, making me even more overwhelmed.

The corners of Yuan Jue's mouth pulled into a smile, "It turns out that you are really a woman, can you be shy?" ”

As he spoke, he put my feet on his knees, pulled the two chains around my ankles, and buckled them up.

"What is this?" I don't understand. It's also so strange why he put a chain around my ankle. Looking left and right, swaying left and right, the silver chains on the ankles made a bell-like sound, the sound was not loud, but it was very crisp, and it was very clear to hear.

"Looks good." Yuan Jue seemed to be very satisfied with this scene, put the shoes back on my feet, and sat back down.

"What's good, it's tinkling everywhere you go." I'm not used to that. This always makes the sound of a bell. I felt strange and reached for the chain.

Yuan Jue didn't stop it, just sat in place and smiled evilly. "If you can't take it off, you can't take it off if you button it."

"Why did you do that!" I'm a little angry.

"Then you won't be able to run away. Wherever you run. I can find you by the sound of the bell. lest you run around again next time. Who knows where you'll go. Yuan Jue was very straightforward and explained it seriously, but even if he deliberately pretended to be serious. Holding back from smiling, it is not difficult to detect the smile in his eyes from the corners of his slightly curved eyes.

I was so angry that I couldn't speak. "Hurry up and get me down, it's so annoying to jingle like this."

"Whoever said it, it's obviously nice to hear, and it's not annoying at all. This chain was made by someone I personally did, and once it was fastened, there was really no way to take it off, so he said," he deliberately lengthened his voice, "as soon as the chain is fastened, you can only be my man." ”

"What." I was so angry with this little Yuan Jue in front of me that I didn't know what to say.

"Then I want to ask you, whether to marry me or not." Yuan Jue's face was serious, not like a joke.

"You're only ten years old." I reminded him that it was funny that he was doing something ridiculous.

"No, in twenty days, I'll be eleven." He emphasized his age, "You can promise me first, and then I will let my father be the master, go to your house to settle the family affairs first, and when I am an adult, I can marry you." ”

When I saw that he was becoming more and more serious, I began to be a little afraid, afraid that he would take it seriously, that he would care. I called him, "Yuan Jue......"

"Although I am not like Yuan He, I was recognized by my father as a son early on, but I may not lose to him, I can give you more than he can give. Even if he is now the prince, even if he can succeed to the throne and become the monarch, I ......" Yuan Jue said emotionally.

"Yuan Jue." I shouted at him again, he couldn't say any more, if he really fought with the Won Hyuk brothers, just for a throne, I can't afford it, I don't want to see them end up losing for a throne.

Yuan Jue fell silent.

The atmosphere became very helpless.

"Yuan Jue," I called out to him for the third time, and seeing his sideways eyes looking at me, I asked him, "Would you like to be my apprentice?" ”

"What?" Yuan Jue laughed out loud in disbelief as if he had consciously heard something, "What did you say?" ”

"I ask you, would you like to be my apprentice and practice with me."

His reaction was not what I expected, I thought that he could refuse without care, or he could lose his temper and accuse me like he accused Yun Chu, but I never thought and never thought that he would react like this, as if I had just told a very ridiculous joke.

"Do you know what you're talking about?" Yuan Jue stood up and stood in front of me.

"Yuan Jue, be my apprentice. I don't have much ability, but I can give you everything I can. "I just want you to be safe.

"That's enough." Yuan Jue stopped me from continuing. "I don't want to hear it, you can go back."

After Yuan Jue finished speaking, he turned around and walked in the other direction.

I sighed, got up, and walked towards Wonhyuk's mansion.

"I won't be your apprentice!" I suddenly heard Yuan Jue shouting behind me, "You will only be my wife!" ”

After that, for three days, Yuan Jue did not come to Yuan He's Mansion again. And in the past three days, I have not gone out, but I have been waiting in my room, waiting for the opportunity to exchange the Li family back. Won Hyuk seemed to notice something strange between us, and although he didn't ask anything, every time he made eye contact with him, he always felt that he seemed interested in knowing what was going on.

Many times during this period, Biluo seemed to want to disturb me, but she happened to meet Yuan He outside the door. Yuan Hyuk didn't ask me anything, and even if he passed by occasionally, it was mostly because of Li's illness, so he brought the imperial doctor to treat Li.

Then, Cheng Jing came.

It was nearly dusk on the day Cheng Jing came, and Biluo was sitting at my door in a daze, and I could see it vaguely through the window. Won Hyuk hurried from the front garden, stopped in front of Biluo for a moment, and then walked straight to my door. "Niyin girl, Cheng Jing has something to see you."

I opened the door, and then I saw that Biluo had run away. "It's good if you let someone pass the word, why bother to make this trip yourself."

"Maybe you don't want to see him, and it's inconvenient to explain it to your subordinates." Yuan He was thoughtful and thought of all the possibilities.

"It's okay, where is he now?" I thought to myself, the person I didn't want to see him was actually the one who ran away just now. I'm afraid that Wonhyuk saw that I was in a trance for the past few days, and then he thought that I might not want to see anyone.

Yuan Hyuk only thought for a moment, "If you're okay, then I'll let someone take him to the study, and you can tidy up and come to the study to see him." ”

I answered and watched him turn away. only to look down and notice that he was wearing pajamas......

Cheng Jing waited in the study, standing with his back to the door. When I pushed the door in, he turned around, looked at me for only one look, and then looked away, he looked a little haggard, afraid that the words I had said to him before had made him think a lot.

"Cheng Gongzi, I heard that you came to me?" I meant to remind him that he had come to me and wanted him to understand something, rather than just standing there waiting for me to ask one by one.

Cheng Jing doesn't care about anything else. When he looked at me again, his eyes made me feel a little scared. "I just wanted to confirm to you how much do you know about my birth mother about what you said that day?"

I still felt a little questioning when I saw him, but his tone was not as certain as he said.

"Seems like you know, it's not quite what I know." I'm not sure if he misunderstood something.

He pursed his lips, "My mother, no, the current Mrs. Cheng is really not a mother, right." ”

It turned out that he just wanted to confirm it with me. "Have you heard someone say about Master Cheng, that is, your father drove the original wife crazy in order to marry the new lady?"

He waited nervously for my answer, and when he heard my words, he suddenly became deflated and smiled bitterly, "Well, it's true." ”

"Although this is true, there is something else to it. It's not as simple as you think, if you want to know the truth, then at least sue me, you know what you know now, right? I just know where to sue you, don't I? "Even if I want to sue him, I have to know how much he knows.

He looked up, and just as he was about to say something, he closed his mouth again, frowning.

A thought flashed through my mind, and I asked him, "Could it be that it has something to do with Biluo?" ”

It is related to Biluo, and it is easy to explain as soon as Qiē is concerned, you can understand why Cheng Jing obviously cares about Biluo, but it is easy to misunderstand Biluo, giving Jialan the opportunity to let her take advantage of the situation, if the things of the previous generation have something to do with Biluo, it is no wonder that Cheng Jing will have such an attitude towards Biluo.
