"Aunt Feng, since that's the case, I don't need to trouble you for this little thing." Tilt chuckled.
Lu Yin's face was faintly angry, Aunt Feng looked at the two of them worriedly, sighed lightly, and went to the kitchen with Uncle Feng.
The two walked through the front hall to the backyard without saying a word, pushed open the door, and without pretending to be someone else's hand, took their clothes and turned straight behind the screen. And Lu Yin stood in front of the door with cold arms, and he had no intention of helping from the beginning.
"Say anything soon, I'm going to rest." After pouring the bath, her lukewarm voice came from behind the screen.
"Has Miss Mu forgotten her identity? You weren't sent here to play, and the guards weren't sent to protect you. Hearing the sound of the clothes rubbing behind her paused for a moment, Midori knew that she had spoken of her sore spots, and her heart was faintly happy.
However, the expected picture of anger did not happen.
After tying up his clothes and wrapping them around, he glanced at Lu Yin casually, and then sat in front of the mirror and slowly combed his long hair.
In the bronze mirror, her head was slightly sideways, her long hair was tucked together on one shoulder, and her neck was graceful. The wrist exposed under her shirt was as white as fat, as if the scorching sun of Linzhou City had no effect on her. The thin body under the middle coat began to become bumpy at some point.
If she was still a jerky little girl two years ago, two years have passed, and it is enough for her to grow into a charming and moving woman.
"Of course I remember who I am."
A pleasant voice sounded in the room, and Midori came back to her senses in a daze, and met her gaze in the mirror. Her eyes sharpened as the corners of her lips turned up, as if she had read through all her thoughts.
"Otherwise," she said, "how could I have allowed you to be presumptuous by my side for so long." ”
Lu Yin's head buzzed, and a rush of anger surged into her heart, even if she was looked down upon, this person would definitely not be Mu Qian.
"You think you ......," she said, annoyed, stepping forward.
Tilting but didn't hurry to stop her words, "What am I? You really think I didn't know that you were the one who did today's thing. ”
Retracting his gaze, he continued to comb his long hair, his leisurely appearance contrasting sharply with Midori's impatience.
"As you said, the secret guards are mainly responsible for surveillance, no matter where I go or what I do, as long as I don't violate the taboo of your five princes, they will not interfere. Since the fifth prince left me with his life in the capital, naturally there is no need to take my life here. What's more, in my opinion, the fifth prince is not a person without a target, and he still has other uses if he wants to keep me. Lu Yin's face changed slightly, and he continued: "With such a calculation, it is clear who is responsible for today's events. ”
Midori listened silently, not saying a word, only her eyes revealed her long-hidden contempt and arrogance.
Seeing this, he smiled slightly, "You love the Fifth Prince, but you have to because I left the capital, and because the Fifth Prince's attitude towards me is resentful, you deliberately want me to suffer." ”
Midori's expressionless face was finally shocked by her words, "It's just nonsense." ”
As soon as these words were spoken, Lu Yin suddenly realized that his reaction was too intense, and he had already fallen in this confrontation. I went to look at the dump again, and sure enough, I saw her curling lips and smiling.
"What do you want?" She said within.
"What do I want?" Tilt threw down the comb and walked over to her, "It seems that you still have no remorse. I don't care about your cold words on weekdays, but you can't help but take this kind of thing too lightly. I just want to ask you one thing, because your selfishness caused the secret guard to be injured and exposed, will the five princes you care about the most care? Let's take a gamble. ”
Midori pursed her lips, knowing that this time it was indeed her own mistake. originally wanted to teach her a small lesson, but the counterattack that later poured out was really unexpected by her. In this moment of shock, they had already missed the best opportunity to rescue, and if it weren't for the timely arrival of the officers and soldiers, I am afraid that they would ......
Lu Yin didn't dare to think about it anymore, but even if the prince wanted to punish her in the future, she still didn't want to bow her head in front of Tilt today.
She propped up her lips and smiled, and said stubbornly: "I don't bother you about my business, I just want to warn you that even if you end up being abandoned, you should not give up on yourself and go in and out of that kind of place to cause trouble for the prince." There is also that Li Gongzi, the girl had better be polite next time, no matter what, he is also the son of the deputy city lord of a dignified city, not something you can afford to offend. ”
The implication is that everything she relies on today is just a gift from the Fifth Prince, and without these, she is nothing here.
Midori Yin stared at her intensely, hoping to catch even a trace of pain and anger in her eyes. But she saw nothing, and after she had looked at herself for a long time, she turned and walked towards the bed.
"Let's go back when we're done." The voice is slow and quiet, but it makes people's hearts empty.
Lu Yin looked at her slender back, and suddenly laughed at herself, that is, what could she get if she was embarrassed, but they were just two poor people who couldn't ask for it.
As soon as she thought of this, she was drained of her strength, and her mind retreated silently.
That night, he tossed and turned until dawn came, and he fell asleep in a daze.
*****
She didn't go out again for more than a month, she was waiting, waiting for news to come outside. But the people of Linzhou lived as usual, as if the riots that happened that night were just her imagination. Yingxin never showed up again, and Shan Gongzi did not hand the letter to her, reassuring himself that no news was good news, but a heart was always hanging and could not be put down. No matter who Brother Yan worked for, she hoped that he would at least be alive.
It seemed that she had not appeared for a long time, and she did not pay attention, only thinking that she did not want to see herself, until she opened the door early one morning and saw a strange and somewhat familiar girl standing outside the door.
The girl smiled brightly and stepped forward to bow down, "Miss Mu, we meet again." ”
Again?
Facing the morning sun, Tilt finally remembered where he had seen her, "It turned out to be you." ”
"Bi Rui once again thanks Miss Mu for her rescue, from now on, Bi Rui will serve the girl." Bi Rui's eyes couldn't hide her joy and admiration, as if she had been looking forward to this day for a long time.
He lowered his eyelashes to cover his eyes, and said for a while: "It turns out that your name is Birui." ”
Bi Rui smiled and nodded, "It's the name given by the child, and the original name of the slave is awkward." ”
Birui's undisguised surprise made Tilt Wan a little surprised, and she stepped down the steps, "When did you arrive in Linzhou?" You're tired of running all the way, so it's better to take a good rest first. ”
Bi Rui followed behind her, and there was a hint of novelty and yearning for this place in her words, "The slave maid arrived in Linzhou last night and rested at an inn not far away. The girl can rest assured, the slave and maid rested well last night, and there is no problem with what the girl wants the slave to do. ”
"There's a lot of people here, there's nothing to do. You're new here, so it's better to let Aunt Feng take you out for a walk. ”
The footsteps behind him stopped abruptly.
There was a hint of panic and anxiety on Birui's face, she threw herself on her knees, raised her head and asked, "Does the girl not want slaves?" Girl, the slave is very capable, girl, don't drive me away. ”
"You stand up." Tilting his head slightly sideways, he said.
"The girl didn't agree to keep the slave and maid, and the slave and maid knelt here, and the slave and maid had nowhere to go." Bi Rui said stubbornly, and there was a bit of anger in her words.
She turned her head back, and the rising sun dyed the horizon a brilliant red, just like her clothes.
"You're here to replace Midori Yin? What about her? She asked lightly.
"The slave maid only knows that the son told the slave maid to take good care of Miss Mu, as for the green hidden girl, the son said that she is no longer suitable to continue to stay with the girl, and there are other things for her to do in the capital."
"Really?" Tilting the corners of his lips, he continued to walk forward, "You get up." ”
Bi Rui's eyes lit up, "Did the girl promise the slave to stay?" ”
"Don't you know that what I'm talking about here doesn't count? He wants you to stay, how can I want you to go? He asked self-deprecatingly.
Bi Rui trotted after her in surprise, "But the son told me that from now on I will only listen to the girl." If you do something that the girl doesn't like, the girl will deal with it herself. ”
"Yes." The response is still faint.
