5. It's dark at night
The girl's shrill screams pierced the sky.
Then, the scene fell into a dead silence, and even the melodious sound of Shicai came to an abrupt end.
Li Wujian paused the movement at hand, and raised his eyes to stare fixedly in the direction from which the voice came.
No assassin in the world would be stupid enough to scream in front of his target, so ......
"Why don't you come and sit down?"
The clear voice came through the night, but it only made the corner of the girl's mouth twitch in embarrassment. She hurriedly sorted out her not messy appearance, and walked awkwardly from the dark to the light.
"Uh-hehe, this son, good evening."
āā¦ā¦ā
Li Wujian imagined thousands of possibilities, but he didn't expect the other party to smile and say this. Obviously, she didn't see through her identity.
He gathered his extra thoughts, and said lightly: "It's late at night, and the girl is wandering in the palace alone, what's the matter?" ā
After finishing speaking, he also looked at her black clothes.
Xiao Hanyu looked at the man in white who seemed to be quite handsome, and smiled dryly: "What's that...... IāI've got nocturnal wandering syndrome! I often walk around late at night, and I go to sleep when I am tired, so that I am not easy to get sick. ā
She casually lied, and said to herself that she was really improvised.
"Nocturnal wanderer?" Li Wujian raised his eyebrows and repeated, although his face was silent, he didn't believe it at all in his heart, but he admired this little girl a lot, and he didn't hesitate to lie that he was sick in order to hide it.
"That's right, it's nocturnal sickness! You don't know, when I get sick, I can choke people's necks, I will fall when I catch something, and I will turn the house into a mess! Uh......" Xiao Hanyu said matter-of-factly, and after a while, he felt that he seemed to be overblowing, "Anyway, it's very dangerous for me to get sick anyway, so in order not to cause trouble to everyone, I can only give up the time to sleep and walk around." ā
Saying this, her eyes widened suddenly, and the man who was still motionless suddenly got up and walked towards her.
"Huh! Slow down, slow down! You, you, don't come here! ā
"Why?"
Of course, it's because I can't let you get close enough to see what I look like!
It's impossible for a girl to say this kind of thing. She immediately rolled her eyes, raised her face on the floor, and pretended to be angry: "Me! I'm sick, so I have low self-esteem! Don't come here, don't look at my face! ā
"......" was also speechless about the lies she came up with and the action of covering her face and retreating, "Okay, I won't go." ā
"Thank you for your kindness!" Xiao Hanyu breathed a sigh of relief instantly.
Of course, in order not to impress the other party too much, she immediately changed the topic: "Childe, it's so late, why are you playing the piano here?" ā
Li Wujian knew that she was deliberately diverting her attention, but she didn't care, so she sat back with a faint expression, and replied: "I'm bored, so I played a song and chatted to comfort myself." ā
"Oh, then you keep playing, and I'll go on a walk."
āā¦ā¦ā
Seeing that the girl didn't even have a word of comfort or politeness, she turned around and wanted to leave, and no one suddenly realized that her majesty and iron teeth and bronze teeth in the Jinluan Palace were useless in the face of this little girl who was only sixteen years old.
It's really intoxicating.
But then again, although he could be sure that she was not coming for her, he still had to be on the lookout - although the emperor of Nadongzan was mediocre, it was hard to guarantee that those under him had no thoughts.
You must know that once people's desires arise, there is nothing that they dare not take advantage of.
When the phoenix's eyes narrowed slightly, he heard the other party's sudden clear voice: "Childe doesn't have to be too depressed, life is in the world, how can everything go well." As long as people are alive, there is hope. ā
Before the words fell, Li Wujian raised his head in a daze, and looked at the smiling girl in the distance. It's a pity that in just a blink of an eye, the little girl completely turned her back and disappeared into the night quickly.
Because she met a "Cheng Biting Jin" halfway, Xiao Hanyu became a little restless, and after a short circle of hurried around, she quietly returned to the dormitory. The next day, she was bored outside the house, when she heard a childish call in the distance.
"Mother-"
The girl turned her head, and then she saw the palace maid Liuli who was holding the lord of Xiangming. Her heart tightened, and she watched the little guy twist his body vigorously, forcing Ruri to put himself down.
"Mother-"
The little girl stumbled towards her, and her voice was already stained with obvious crying. Xiao Hanyu's heart softened instantly, and she subconsciously bent down and opened her arms to the little guy.
"Why are you here? Well? She picked up the little doll, which was crying, and immediately saw its big red and swollen eyes.
"Mother, mother, is Xiangxiang disobedient, so my mother doesn't want Xiangxiang?" The little guy hugged his "mother" tightly, as if he was afraid that if he was not careful, he would lose her.
Xiao Hanyu knew how to answer her, but she couldn't say the words when they came to her mouth.
The little guy is so pitiful, she can't bear it. However, she can't really be the mother of this girl.
When he was in a dilemma, the little guy's tears had already fallen.
Seeing the little doll carved in pink and jade looking at herself with an aggrieved face, Jin Doudou quickly fell to the ground, and Xiao Hanyu's heart couldn't be ruthless.
"No, no, no, no, no one doesn't want Xiangxiang, Xiangxiang is very well-behaved, ah?" The girl wiped her tears for the little one and adjusted her posture while holding her, "Let's stop crying, okay?" ā
The little guy sobbed and nodded a little bit of his brain, and his two little hands grabbed the girl's shoulders and didn't let go. After a while, Xiao Hanyu coaxed her to completely put away her tears, and let her lie on her shoulder, enjoying this hard-won peace.
Liuli on the side always looked at this exotic princess who was only one side, and watched the extremely patient girl coax her little master, and her heart couldn't help but have mixed feelings. It wasn't until the other party asked her coldly and asked her why the county lord of Xiangming suddenly came to find herself, that she had to present the matter one by one.
It turned out that when the little guy woke up that day, not only did he not forget what happened before he went to bed, but he also asked his mother where he was. Ruri, who was in charge of taking care of her, had no choice but to tell the truth, saying that it was not her mother. Who knows that the little guy does not give up, although he does not cry and make trouble, and loses his temper, but he wilts all day long, and refuses to eat and sleep properly. This made Liuli, the maid who had taken care of her since she was a child, anxious, and tossed for several days with coaxing, and finally lost in the stubbornness of the little master.
Yes, the five-year-old doll had already decided that her mother, who was said to never return, had returned to her. Therefore, as long as Sister Liuli doesn't take her to her mother for a day, she will insist on it for a day.
Although the little girl knew in her heart that whether it was her mother or Sister Liuli, she didn't like disobedient children the most, but she still underwent huge pressure and made a bad "bad boy".
Fortunately, her efforts finally brought her the opportunity to reunite with her "mother" - this time, she would never let go of her fragrant mother no matter what.
Xiao Hanyu didn't know what the little thing was thinking at this moment, and it wasn't until after a stick of incense that she tried to put the little guy down, but she was grabbed by his clothes, and she vaguely realized something.
Liuli also helped persuade on the side: "County Lord, County Lord, you listen to the slave maid, this is really not Princess Lian, she is really not your mother, she is a princess of another country, and she is someone you don't know." County Lord, you are obedient, come down quickly, Her Royal Highness the Princess has been holding you, you will be very tired. ā
However, the little guy didn't listen to her persuasion at all, just glanced back at her, twisted his little eyebrows, turned his head away, and hugged Xiao Hanyu's neck tightly.
"County Lord, County Lord, you are obedient, the slave maid will take you to drink sweet soup, okay?"
Sweet soup is the favorite of the lord of Xiangming in the past, but unfortunately, in this situation, how can the attachment to his mother be disintegrated by a bowl of sweet soup?
The little guy didn't move, he tightened his soft little body, hugged the "mother" tightly and didn't let go.
"This ......" Liuli looked at the girl who couldn't cry or laugh in embarrassment, just as the other party's eyes also turned and met her eyes.
"Forget it, I'll take her to the garden first." After finishing speaking, Xiao Hanyu took a straight step towards the outside of the hall.
To tell the truth, she is no less experienced than this palace maid named "Liuli" when to coax children and when to train, she knows very well!
The self-proclaimed talented girl took the little guy to the imperial garden without changing her face, and because her arm was a little sore, she found a stone stool to sit down, and let the county lord of Xiangming sit on her lap. Wide-eyed, she asked the little one how old he was. The little one stared at her for a moment, bewildered, and then replied, "Five-year-old" in a milky voice.
"Do you know how old your mother is?"
The county lord of Xiangming was confused: this ...... My mother didn't tell me.
Xiao Hanyu threw the same question to Liuli again, and learned from her mouth that if the late Princess Lian was still alive, she would be twenty-two by now.
"Do you hear that?" The girl got the answer, and her eyes returned from the woman's face to the little one's eyes, "Your mother is twenty-two years old this year, and I, Princess Mingning of Dongzanguo, have just turned sixteen now. Sixteen years old, just past the age of marriage, where did I get such a big daughter of yours? ā
When the words fell, Liuli had already wiped a cold sweat beside her: Your Royal Highness Princess, if you say this to a five-year-old doll, she may not understand!
Yes, Rao has some confidence in the intelligence of her master, and Ruri still feels that the world of adults is still too complicated for her.
However, what she didn't expect was that the next moment, her little master actually bit her lip silently, and lowered her head with a tight face.
