Chapter Twenty-Five: I Was Raised by My Stepmother
It wasn't until the beginning of the fifth day that the carriage they rode slowly arrived at Bixia City.
"Ah~ It's finally here~ The master is about to get sick." Shen Xiaoli jumped out from the first one, twisted his waist and moved his muscles, and then ran back and hugged the amber thief eyebrows and said, "Good apprentice, I will take you to see the big beauty for the teacher in a while!" ”
Amber rubbed against her shoulder socket and snorted lazily in response.
Shen Xiaoli found that the little apprentice would only occasionally burst out one or two monotones when no one was around, she touched the top of Amber's soft hair, looked at the apprentice who was about to fall asleep and muttered, "Why are you still so sleepy, are children like this?" It shouldn't be...... I probably tossed when I was five years old......"
Amber closed her eyelashes and quivered, the corners of her lips slowly hooked.
As soon as Shen Xiaoli found the house and settled down, she received a message from Duan Yunhuan saying that she should go to the Water Stream Pavilion.
took Amber all the way to Duan Meiren's lair, Duan Yunhuan was basking in the sun with cucumbers in the courtyard, and when he heard the low howl of Da Meng at his feet, he straightened up and looked at the door.
His gaze swept over Shen Xiaoli and finally fixed on Xiao Amber, and a touch of amazement swept over. He blinked and smiled, full of charm, "I heard that Xiaomei'er accepted an apprentice like a fairy child, but now I see that it is worthy of the name, where did you kidnap such a delicate and delicate villain." ”
Amber only glanced at him, and then lowered her head, this kind of thing that is neither male nor female is pretty. (Duan Yunhuan: Don't pull me, I want to him!! )
She glanced at the silent little apprentice, and shook his soft hand lovingly, "Rescued from the hands of human traffickers, Amber has good bones and is very obedient, but unfortunately there seems to be a problem with his throat and he can't speak." ”
"That's ......" Duan Meiren shook her head, but she really regretted it. Oh, by the way, I have something to talk to you about alone. ”
He waited for his subordinates to carefully remove the cucumber slices on his face, wiped them with water, and then carefully took out the condensate and wiped them. After doing this, the whole person's skin became more delicate, and Shen Xiao couldn't open his eyes.
She bent down and told her apprentice, "You just wait for me obediently in the side hall, and the master will come to pick you up when he finishes his work." After explaining, he turned around step by step and followed the inky figure in front of him step by step.
Entering the main hall one after the other, Duan Yunhuan lay on the couch without any image, the room was smoked with a unique but good smell, and the servant behind him gently fanned, and the soft air urged people to sleep.
She stayed for a while, and her vision gradually blurred.
"Xiao Mei'er, have you found the Zixiao Sword?" Duan Yunhuan's voice was as soft as water, and it seemed to be close to far away, so that people couldn't hear it clearly.
"Sort of......" she reached out to prop up her dizzy head, weak.
"So, where did you put it?"
"The Royal Palace...... The palace is a real ......"
"Are you sure you can get it?"
"En......"
"Your name?"
Shen ...... Xiaoli ......" his mouth spit out his real name uncontrollably, Shen Xiaoli secretly said that it was not good, his consciousness was clear, but his eyelids were heavy and could not be opened.
"Then, Shen Xiaoli, tell me everything about you."
"I ......" opened his mouth and was about to uncover his old bottom one by one, but the door was slammed open, and the black panther stood up with a whimper, and got in front of Duan Yunhuan trembling, not knowing what he was afraid of.
The cold wind outside the house hit, and Shen Xiao woke up from an agitated spirit, and tightly pursed the corners of his mouth and stopped talking. Obviously, Duan Yunhuan set her up, and the incense in the room had a hypnotic effect.
Duan Yunhuan was interrupted at a critical moment, and his face was not good. He squinted at Da Meng in his eye sockets, and glanced at the servant beside him, who moved and disappeared into the room. "Snort, Shen Xiaoli?" The tail note rises, and Duan Meiren is smiling, and the water ripples in her eyes, which has the meaning of settling accounts after autumn.
Shen Xiaoli knew that he was at a loss, and said stiffly, "What's wrong?" You, you, don't give the master yin and yang weirdness, my milk name is Shen Xiaoli, and my name is Mei Jiechao! I don't accept you to bite me! Duan Meiren raised her eyebrows, her white slender hand turned around the pendant around her waist and said indifferently, "Once upon a time, someone also talked to me like this. He curled his lips, "Then he died." ”
Shen Xiao flattened his mouth, "Beauty, I was wrong, I had to be incognito because I offended a person I couldn't mess with, and I was also wronged~ ......Dumm It's dirty! ”
"Whew-" snot blowing even more happily.
"Enough, it's good to speak, and this letter is not yet possible. Who have you offended? Since you have entered the Seven Evil Gates, are you still afraid that I will not be able to protect you? Duan Yunhuan sneered, his words revealing arrogance.
Shen Xiaoli choked, what the hell, this thing doesn't even take the emperor into account, how can she fulfill this lie?
"Yes...... My stepmother. She covered her face.
=_= Well, this seat can't help you.
"This is this month's antidote, after passing the assessment, I will go to the palace non-stop and get the Zixiao Sword back for this seat."
Shen Xiaoli took the small bottle he threw over, opened it and took a look. The medicinal fragrance mixed with the bitter smell wafted out, and she raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Hey, the beauty is generous, I'll go down first if there's nothing else." ”
The servant who had been ordered by Duan Yunhuan to go down came back, and he waved his hand impatiently to signal her to leave quickly. Shen Xiaoli was like being amnestied, and quickly withdrew to find the little apprentice in a hurry.
Seeing her walk away, Duan Yunhuan stretched out his foot and kicked Da Meng, but he just pushed under the table harder.
What's going on, the majesty of the usual hooligan to the bitch?
"Back to the door." The servant spoke in embarrassment, "There is nothing unusual in the front hall. ”? what
"Hehe, go to the lobby to handle the retreat yourself."
The little servant wants to cry without tears, hey, hey, 4 really he doesn't dare to lie, there is really nothing in the front hall except for the beautiful and non-lethal child!
**********
"Amber! Mom, I'm scared to death Dad, Duan Yunhuan, that old fox, knows that my name is Shen Xiaoli, and it will be more troublesome to get out now. Hey, hey, don't talk about it, go home and eat two taels of peanuts to suppress the shock. Shen Xiaoli began to cry as soon as she saw her apprentice, she pretended to wipe her sweat, and left the matter behind.
But she didn't know that the unspoken words she had earlier had planted the seeds of doubt in Duan Yunhuan's heart.
Shen Xiaoli gave the antidote to Xiaomeng, and the child swallowed it in one gulp, burped with satisfaction, and slept in the cage with his belly on his back relaxed.
Eh, this guy can't be a rat shell and it contains a human soul, Shen Xiaoli was thundered by his own thoughts, and sure enough, he had read too much of the book and had a hole in his brain.
