"The third master is back." In front of the Nanling Palace, the little guy guarding the door saw Dai Jinchao returning from riding a horse to meet the wind, and hurriedly trotted forward to greet him, and said worriedly: "Such a strong wind, why did the third master come back on horseback, what if the wind blows?" What about Xiao Lizi, why didn't he come back with the third master? ”

Dai Jinchao's face was condensed, and he turned a deaf ear to his questioning, jumped off the horse, threw the reins in his hand, turned around and walked towards the house.

The little guy looked inexplicable. Everyone in the mansion knows that the third master has a gentle temperament, whether it is to the masters in the mansion or the external guests, and even to them, there are few times when they are angry with a cold face, what is wrong today? The third master looked very unhappy, who dared to provoke him so boldly?

After Dai Jinchao entered the mansion, he did not go directly back to his residence towards Huayuan, but walked towards the Huxin Pavilion. Due to the strong wind, most of the maids and maids who served in the house hid in the room, and they never met a few people along the way.

In the strong wind, he stepped onto the long corridor leading to the Huxin Pavilion, and walked forward step by step with some heavy steps, his red clothes were flying, his white hair was fluttering, and he looked a little arrogant and a little cold.

On weekdays, it feels like a short journey, but now Dai Jinchao feels that it is extremely long, and it seems that there is no end to every step.

He looked up at the pavilion at the end of the corridor, his eyes fell on a stone table, and the scene from many days ago involuntarily appeared in front of him. He subconsciously stroked his right hand, which was punctured by the strings, and unconsciously a trace of warmth flowed in his heart, mixed with a trace of sourness.

This made him frown, and he quickly shook his head to shake away these emotions that he shouldn't have, and then quickened his pace and walked towards the pavilion.

When he arrived at the pavilion, he sat down lightly at the stone table, and then took out the jade rabbit earrings from his arms and watched them quietly.

Soon, another figure also appeared on the corridor, it was Dai Leyan. She was wearing a blue trench coat and a fur-brimmed hood integrated with the trench coat, and her whole person was tightly wrapped, revealing only a pair of big black and white eyes.

But Dai Jinchao, who was in a daze, didn't see her coming in a hurry.

"Third brother, you're finally back, I've been waiting for you for a long time. I told you before that I should tell me as soon as I came back, why didn't you? As soon as he arrived at the pavilion, Dai Leyan couldn't help but shout complainingly. Because she was in a hurry, she felt a little difficult to breathe at the moment, so she hurriedly took off her hood and gasped.

Dai Jinchao saw her suddenly appear, and hurriedly clenched the jade rabbit earrings to put them away.

Dai Leyan quickly held his hand to stop it, blinked mischievously and smiled, "Don't hide, I saw it all." You said this is the first time I've found you, why do you wander every time you see it? ”

Dai Jinchao glanced at her, ignored it, and continued to play with the earrings.

As usual, Dai Leyan would have to ask who the owner of the earrings was, although in the end there was no result. But this time, she didn't have the leisure to do so, because she had more important and urgent things to ask. The third brother didn't come back with her and her mother today, he only said that he had something to do, although he didn't say what it was, but his intuition told her that it should be related to Sister Yunjin and his relatives.

She asked anxiously, "Third brother, what's going on?" Will Prince Long really let Sister Yunjin go to kiss? ”

Mentioning this, Dai Jinchao inevitably thought of the scene behind the rockery, and the action of playing with earrings in his hand couldn't help pausing slightly, and said in a nonchalant tone: "What does it have to do with you whether she goes or not?" What the hell are you doing with so much heart. ”

"Third brother, how can you talk like that." Dai Leyan frowned in protest and retorted, "Sister Yunjin is such a good person, how can she go and kiss?" What if you are bullied? No one helped her. ”

Dai Jinchao said without a trace of emotion: "Then she can only be blamed for her life." ”

Dai Leyan was a little annoyed and glared at him angrily: "Third brother, what's the matter with you today?" You're not usually like this, why don't you care about Sister Yunjin at all? ”

"She's not me, why should I care about her?" Dai Jinchao asked in a cold voice.

One sentence blocked Dai Leyan couldn't refute it, although he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say a reason for a while. At this time, she suddenly remembered the prince's reaction when Prince Long said to let Sister Yunjin go to kiss. Sister Yunjin is not the prince's person, why is he so vehemently opposed? I remember that the princess also said that no matter what Sister Yunjin does, the prince will not be angry with her, why is this?

Dai Leyan racked her brains and pondered, and after a while, a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, and she suddenly thought of a possibility, could it be ...... The prince likes Sister Yunjin? She was stunned by her conjecture and couldn't believe it, but she couldn't find a reason to deny it, so she looked at Dai Jinchao with wide eyes and asked: "At that time, the prince objected to Sister Yunjin going to make peace, could it be him...... Like Sister Yunjin? ”

"Just you talk a lot." Dai Jinchao glared at her impatiently.

"Is that true?" Dai Leyan saw that he didn't refute, and he knew that he had guessed eight or nine. She couldn't help but sigh heavily, and lamented: "How is this good, the princess likes you and doesn't want to go to kiss, and the prince likes Sister Yunjin and doesn't want Sister Yunjin to kiss, so who goes?" ”

Dai Jinchao glanced at her who sighed, and reprimanded: "It's not your turn to worry about national affairs, take care of yourself." ”

Dai Leyan was a little depressed in his heart, and said to himself: "Alas, how could Sister Yunjin enter the palace, she is such a good-looking person, she can do anything, and she thinks about others so much, I want her to marry into our house." ”

She shrunk her neck and looked at the person in front of her, and whispered tentatively: "Third brother, why don't you marry Sister Yunjin, you two talented women are really a perfect match." After she finished speaking, her neck shrank even harder, and if nothing else, the person in front of her must have reprimanded her for being nosy again.

But this time, it was a bit unexpected for her.

"Shall I marry her?" Dai Jinchao looked at her with bated breath and asked, and then slowly lowered his eyes.

Dai Leyan felt that there was a play, and immediately nodded: "Yes, anyway, Sister Yunjin is not married to the prince now, and she doesn't seem to like the prince so much, you still have a chance to fight for it." ”

Who knows, as soon as her words fell, Dai Jinchao suddenly raised his hand and threw the jade rabbit earrings into the lake, and said in a calm tone that was almost indifferent: "I will not marry her, and from now on, her life and death have nothing to do with me." ”

"Third brother, you ......" Dai Leyan was shocked by his actions, this earring is the most cherished by the third brother, and he carries it with him every day, how can he say that he will throw it away now?

Carefully reflect on his last sentence: From now on, her life and death have nothing to do with me. Also??? What is the meaning? Could it have been related to him before? Could it be that the third brother cared about Sister Yunjin's life and death before? What about these earrings...... Could it be...... Sister Yunjin's?

Dai Leyan seemed to have discovered some big secret, she was shocked and excited, and she quickly made up her mind that she would ask Sister Yunjin in person.
