Chapter 13
As the saying goes, there is a cloud - a long drought is a rain, so it can be seen that the rain must be a place of personal excellence. Visit wรจn:.
However, the flood in Luzhou Mansion has also affected Ganlin, which is close to this place, and a large number of victims have poured into Ganlin.
When Meng Yuan woke up, the person was already lying in a room somewhere in Ganlin, which made her unable to react to where she was for a while.
"Miss." Fu Feng opened her mouth at this time, interrupting her distraction, "Are you awake?" โ
Meng Yuan 'rubbed' and 'rubbed' his forehead and asked, "How long have I been asleep?" โ
"Miss started to sleep in the carriage, it was His Royal Highness who carried you in, it was evening at the moment, and you have been sleeping for a long time." Fufeng replied in a low voice.
"He carried me down?" When Meng Yuan woke up, she felt that something was wrong, she was still very 'spirited' before getting into the carriage, but after getting into the carriage, she began to feel sleepy, and she fell asleep so quickly, this should not be accidental.
"Where is he now?" Meng Yuan raised his eyes and asked.
Fufeng said: "Your Highness is discussing with Lord Li, the prefect of Ganlin, in the study, but the slave has already informed Your Highness that you are awake." โ
"As soon as I wake up, you're going to have someone inform him?" Meng Yuan's expression was a little strange.
Fu Feng explained: "Miss forgiveness, it is the Third Highness who sent a star 'attendant' guard to wait here early in the morning, saying that as soon as you wake up, you will tell the star 'attendant' guard, and at this time the star 'attendant' guard should have gone to the study and told His Highness the news." โ
Meng Yuan opened his mouth to say something, but he didn't know what to say, he couldn't find an exit in his heart, but fortunately, the initiator arrived soon, standing in the house, he could see the black-haired young man walking outside the courtyard from a distance, he was still the same Zhao Chen who did not smile but was only gentle to her, but it seemed to be a little different from him in his memory.
"See Third Highness." Fufeng immediately bowed his head and saluted.
Zhao Chen nodded and said detachedly: "Go down." โ
Fufeng glanced at her own young lady, Meng Yuan couldn't bear to embarrass her, and motioned her to go down, so she was relieved and bowed out.
"You go down too." Zhao Chen sat down on the chair by the window, and commanded Xing Shen without raising his head.
Xing Shen saluted and retreated, leaving only Zhao Chen, who had arrived in a hurry, and Meng Yuan, who had just woken up not long ago.
"Did you sleep well?" Zhao Chen opened his mouth to ask, his tone was very flat, as if there was nothing wrong.
Meng Yuan endured the doubts in his heart and replied, "It's okay, I don't feel too tired, but I sleep very deeply." โ
Zhao Chen smiled, and there seemed to be something more in his slender phoenix eyes besides gentleness: "That's good, I specially mixed the incense with the soothing incense from the Western Regions, and it seems that the effect is not bad." โ
So that's the case? Meng Yuan watched him 'want' and stopped, as if after his suspicion was easily dissolved, she became even more uncomfortable.
Zhao Chen was silent for a while, and said in a slow and logical tone, "I just didn't expect you to sleep for so long." It's too late now, I wanted to take you around, the imperial examination is imminent, many candidates gathered in Ganlin to fight for the palace examination places, Ganlin's streets have been lively recently. He poured a cup of tea, took a sip and said, "Well, it's mellow and elegant, Governor Li's tea is good, and Yuan Yuan will also have a cup." He poured herself a glass, not asking her if she needed it.
Meng Yuan slowly walked over and sat down beside him, with a small table between the two. She looked at him for a while, but he just lowered his head and drank tea, and there was no flaw on his face.
So, she simply obeyed his meaning and changed the topic: "Having His Royal Highness help me pour tea is really a blessing from my previous life." โ
These words seemed to remind Zhao Chen of something, he pursed his 'lips', and drew a bright smile, and his handsome appearance like 'jade' made people lose their minds.
"If you want, I can pour you tea for the rest of your life." He said along the way, and changed his words, "Today is Ganlin's 'flower' lantern festival, and there will be a 'flower' lantern festival for three consecutive days, which is a coincidence." If you're not tired, I'll take you out for a walk, okay? โ
Going out? Meng Yuan was a little hesitant because of the worry that he couldn't say.
She thought for a while, held her head and said, "I slept on the carriage for a long time, my body was a little stiff, and I won't go out tonight." โ
Zhao Chenfeng smiled in his eyes, and said as if he was sure of something: "Then go tomorrow." With that, he put down the teacup and got up neatly to leave, "I'll take my leave first, and you can rest well." โ
Seeing him leave like this, Meng Yuan stood up directly, sat down after being anxious for a while, but the teacup in her hand was pressed heavily on the table by her, and the cup and people's hands were not very comfortable.
"Miss, are you alright?" When Fu Feng came in, he saw this scene, and he was startled and hurried over to check Meng Yuan's hand.
A little hot tea splashed her hands, but Meng Yuan didn't care at all, she said lightly: "I'm fine, has the Third Highness gone away?" โ
"Well, I went to Governor Li's study again."
"I guess it's because they came to see me before the matter was over." The meaning of Meng Yuan's words was very shy and happy, but the tone of her voice didn't seem to be happy.
"Isn't Miss upset?" Fu Feng was puzzled, "Your Royal Highness is so attentive to you, even the slaves and maids can see it. โ
Meng Yuan sighed and said, "Shangxin is Shangxin, but I always feel that something is wrong with him." "It's not quite the same as the one she knew before.
"Didn't you notice?" She asked Fufeng again, as if seeking recognition.
Fufeng shook his head and said, "No, the three highnesses that the slave maid sees are always like that." โ
โโฆโฆโ
It seems that she is the only one who thinks so? If Zhao Chen in her impression in her previous life was a gentleman who was as gentle as 'jade' and indifferent to fame and fortune, then in this life he gave her the feeling of being more like a patient wolf.
Could it be that because of her rebirth, what mistake did she make him like this?
Or maybe he has to be too different from before he was reborn, so he ...... What do you suspect?
This speculation frightened Meng Yuanyi, and a chill swept over her, so when Zhao Chen invited her to see the 'flower' lantern again the next day, she didn't care that she might meet Su Jichen, and obediently followed him out of the prefect's mansion.
With Luzhou as a comparison, Gan Lin seems to be too prosperous, and it coincides with the festival in the city, the streets are full of lights, men, women, and women are walking outside, and the lively scene makes people a little less vigilant.
Zhao Chen walked in front of Meng Yuan, she followed behind very well-behaved, and he never looked back to see if she could keep up, stopping and stopping, and from time to time telling her the origin of Ganlin's 'flower' lantern festival, she would occasionally ask a few words, the two of you come and go quite harmoniously.
However, the time of harmony is always short-lived, and when they walk to the 'jade' spring lake in Ganlin, they start to be a little strange when they see the young 'women' who put the river lanterns and the young people who take the river lanterns.
It's really a coincidence that there is no book, what are you afraid of, isn't the gentle young man in a long robe on the other side of the river lantern who came here to catch the exam?
Meng Yuan was calm on the surface, but she couldn't help but slander in her heart, she had never met Su Jichen in her life, what did Zhao Chen bring her to this place for? Is it really unintentional?
Seeing that Meng Yuan was indifferent to the picture in front of him, Zhao Chen turned his hand and asked her with a smile: "You don't want to put river lanterns?" โ
Meng Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then she saw that the Third Highness of the day had a lot of opportunities to ask Xing Shen to buy the river lantern, and stood in place and waited with great enthusiasm, as if she was going to write some wishes on the river lantern herself.
"You want to put a river lantern?" Meng Yuan asked.
Zhao Chen said: "Put it for you." โ
"I can put it myself."
"You stood there for a long time, I thought you were different from other 'women' and didn't like to do this kind of thing."
"Then you don't think I like it, why do you want to put it for me?" Meng Yuan frowned and asked.
Zhao Chen looked at her, holding a pen in one hand and a lotus 'flower' river lamp in the other, the lights at night illuminated his noble face, his thin 'lips' lightly opened, and it was hard not to admire what he said.
"It seems that you didn't listen to me carefully on the road, Ganlin's 'flower' lantern festival can not only pass on marriage, but also pray for blessings, since you don't have the former plan, I will put a lamp for you, I hope you will live and be safe and smooth."
Meng Yuan couldn't tell what she felt in her heart, as if her many suspicions about his purpose this time had tainted him, she pursed her 'lips', said "thank you" softly, leaned against him and watched him write obediently.
On the other side of the river, Su Jichen, who received many young 'women' river lanterns, had no intention of appreciating the intentions of those young 'women', his eyes were attracted by the pair of beautiful people on the other side of the river, and his eyes were fixed on the young 'women' in the water-colored skirts, and he couldn't move away for a long time.
Seeing him like this, a companion looked at him curiously, and couldn't help but quip: "Zihuan, so many 'flower' lamps are not enough for you to see, but you want to see the one who has a master?" โ
Su Jichen retracted his gaze and said ashamedly: "Where, no." โ
On the other side of the river, Zhao Chen squatted down in his robe and let the river lantern out, then stood up and said, "That's fine, do you want to go around again?" โ
Meng Yuan looked around, pointed to the south and said, "There is a place to guess lantern riddles, let's go and have a look?" โ
Zhao Chen seemed to really want to play with her today, and when he saw that she wanted to go, he really took her there. A few 'squires' guards had a bit of a hard time following because the crowd was too crowded and they couldn't go to the room lightly. Zhao Chen directly sent them to wait outside, and personally took her to guess the lantern riddle.
Meng Yuan felt that he was holding her hand, and his heart was flustered for a moment, and he was full of indescribable sorrow.
When he stopped, she didn't look at the lantern riddle, but stood on tiptoe and leaned into his ear and asked, "Do you think I'm annoyed, so you want me to fall asleep in the carriage?" โ
Zhao Chen was stunned, lowered his head and stared at her eyes, which reflected the surrounding 'flower' lamps, which were dazzling.
"Or did I do something that made you feel wrong or disliked, so you're upset?" Meng Yuan wrinkled his eyebrows and said, "I always feel that you are different from before I came to Ganlin, but I can't think of any difference, so I just ask you directly." She shook his hand, "Will you sue me?" โ
Zhao Chen's eyelids drooped slightly and he was silent, and finally raised his hand to scrape her nose as if he had given up something, and said softly: "What are you thinking about, it's just that the Luzhou flood and the matter of repairing the embankment make me a little upset, and it has nothing to do with you." As for the things in the carriage, I was just afraid that you would be bored if you stayed with me for a long time, so I lit a soothing incense to let you sleep well. If you don't like it, I'll throw it away. โ
Meng Yuan felt that his eyes were gentle and sincere, not like a fake, but he still couldn't let go of it in his heart, so he could only say: "It's so valuable, it's a tribute, it's a pity to throw it away, keep it and wait until you can't sleep at night." โ
Zhao Chen glanced behind her, quickly retracted it, directly grabbed her shoulders and flew up, Meng Yuan hugged him hard, and he heard the soldiers behind him, there was actually an assassin!
In the prefect's mansion, in Lord Li's study, it was not Lord Li who was sitting, but an old monk with fairy wind bones.
This is the person who asked Zhao Chen to get into the carriage after Meng Yuan fell asleep on the way from Luzhou to Ganlin.
Zhao Chen would let Meng Yuan fall asleep because he wanted to come up.
After a short time, the 'door' of the study was opened from the outside, and the monk who was meditating cross-legged opened his eyes, his expression was clear, and his treasure was solemn.
"His Highness has been assassinated?" He had already guessed
