The summer of Hu is only more than two months in a hurry, and there is still half a month for Hu to enter early autumn, so although it is hot during the day, it is cool at night, blowing away the dry heat of the day, and it becomes very pleasant.
Su Rui, who ran out of Mingyue Tower, felt like an alien standing on this strange street in this foreign country.
The pedestrians on the street rubbed shoulders, talking and laughing, very lively, but she was alone, and she didn't even have a direction or plan for where to go.
Su Rui raised his eyes and looked at the rising crescent moon in the night sky, took a deep breath of the refreshing air of the night, and exhaled a long time, and did it several times, as if he wanted to exhale the depression and boredom in his chest along with the exhaust gas, and after a few deep breaths, he was really in a much better mood.
Bait is bait, Suri shrugged, the assassin still doesn't know where it is?! There's nothing to worry about. Even if it's bait, at least she's out of the palace, and even if it's only a short period of freedom, it's better than nothing!
Suri tipped the night breeze behind her ears and strode forward. Anyway, it's out, and if you don't play, wouldn't you be sorry for yourself.
By the way, is it really good for her to throw Sikong Jin in Mingyue Tower like that? Su Rui walked out a few steps and hesitated, and then she pouted, he is the prince of Hu State, and his martial arts are so good, will he still be lost in his own land!
Although the commerce of Hu was not as prosperous as that of Daikin, and the products were not as abundant as Dajin, the bustle of the streets of this festival was not inferior to that of Dajin's capital.
Su Rui walked forward naturally with the crowd, all the sides of the road have been decorated with flowers, and the lanterns over the streets of the capital have also been lit up at night, densely covering the entire street, reflecting half of the capital as if it were day, and even the rising crescent moon looks a little dim and weak under the illumination of these lights.
It's really like daylight in the flower market, Suri admired as he walked. There are also a variety of things sold on both sides of the street, selling everything, only what you can't think of, and nothing that he can't sell. Su Rui's eyes were sharp, and he saw a shop selling jewelry, and there was a hosta in the most eye-catching place.
Su Rui likes jade the most, she can't move her legs when she sees the hosta, she squeezes hard to the side of the road, walks to the store, and is about to pick up the hosta to look at it carefully, but finds that another hand reaches over and picks up the hosta before her.
"Hey......" Su Rui was in a hurry and called out, "That hosta is me...... Yes? How are you! Her gaze followed the hosta upward, she wanted to say that the hosta was the first I saw, but she swallowed back half of the words, and in front of her stood a young man in a gray robe, the man was heroic and tall, and his long black hair was meticulously combed behind his head and tied with a moon-white hairband, which looked very capable and refreshing.
It's Helian Yunlin.
Helian Yunlin also saw Su Rui in a blink of an eye, he was startled at first, and almost knelt down to salute, as soon as he lifted the hem of his clothes, he was quickly held down by Su Rui, "Brother Helian!" Suri gave him a look.
Helian Yunlin was so smart, he nodded immediately, but he didn't know what to call Su Rui. Calling her Niangniang will inevitably reveal her identity, and it would be disrespectful to call her by her name. For a while, Helian Yunlin didn't know what to do.
"It's me. Suri. You often call me Xiao Rui. Su Rui saw Helian Yunlin standing there awkwardly, knowing his thoughts, so he said with a smile.
"Little ...... Hello Miss Rui. Helian Yunlin looked around and said.
She wouldn't come out alone, would she? How dangerous is that? Helian Yunlin naturally knew about Su Rui's assassination a month ago, and since that night he sent Su Rui back, he has been on night duty for a month. In order not to meet Su Rui again and not to cause her unnecessary trouble, he was cautious in his words and deeds in the palace. Sometimes he would see Suri walking after dinner, but he could only look at her from a distance and never come near her again.
"You like this hairpin too?" Su Rui finally saw an acquaintance in the vast sea of people, and she was naturally very happy, she smiled and pointed to the hosta in Helian Yunlin's hand, "It won't be bought for the girl you like." Su Rui hit Helian Yunlin with his shoulder and said teasingly.
"Oh." Helian Yunlin then remembered that he still had a hairpin in his hand, his face turned red, and he shook his head embarrassedly, "No, no." King...... Don't get me wrong. This hairpin is my cousin's favorite a few days ago, and it will be her birthday in two days, so I want to buy it for her as a birthday gift. ”
"Oh." Su Rui smiled and nodded, "Then I won't take people's hearts." ”
"Wang ...... If Miss Xiaorui likes it, she is ...... Naturally, he didn't dare to trespass. Helian Yunlin said shirkably. He was really not used to calling Su Rui a little girl, and he always had to say a few wrong words. Even he felt that his mouth was stupid, and his face became a little redder. Fortunately, the night was hazy, and although the lights were bright, it was not very clear.
"I'm not surnamed Wang!" Su Rui laughed, she knew that Helian Yunlin was accustomed to shouting wrong, and deliberately said, "My surname is Su." ”
"Yes, yes, yes. Miss Sue. Helian Yunlin hung his head in embarrassment.
"I can't see it, you're quite shy as a big man." Su Rui smiled, "Don't worry. I'm just looking. If your cousin likes it, take it. ”
"Thank you, Miss Su." Miss Xiaorui screamed what a. Still make Miss Su feel better, Helian Yunlin hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted.
"Don't mother-in-law. It just so happens that I'm alone now, I don't know the road, it's rare to meet you, even if you're unlucky today, go shopping with me. Su Rui took the hosta out of Helian Yunlin's hand and handed it to the shopkeeper on the side, "The shopkeeper will help choose a brocade box to wrap up, and people will give it away." Make sure it looks good. ”
The shopkeeper saw that he sold a hosta without much effort, and naturally said yes with a smile.
After Helian Yunlin paid the money, he lowered his voice and asked Su Rui, "Miss Su, I don't know ...... the fourteenth son."
Su Rui's smile froze when he heard Helian Yunlin mention Sikong Jin, "Can you not mention him?" She said in a cold voice.
"This ...... Be. Helian Yunlin guessed that the two of them should have quarreled again. That's why Su Rui came out of the palace alone.
In fact, even if Su Rui doesn't say it, Helian Yunlin also plans to follow Su Rui's side, first, she is the princess of Da Jinlai, and she is naturally not familiar with the streets of Hu Guojing, there are many people tonight, in case she gets lost and can't find her way back, it will be a big deal. Second, the assassin incident only happened a month ago, and it was impossible for him to leave Suri alone, so what would it be if he met the killer assassin again.
It's just that these fourteen princes are usually thoughtful, how can they rest assured that the princess will come out alone?
Thinking of this, Helian Yunlin couldn't help but look around again, but he still didn't find anyone from the palace coming out.
"What are you looking at?" Su Rui patted Helian Yunlin's shoulder, "Let's go!" Still standing stupidly. I'll tell you yes, I'm here to have fun today. Don't mention something unhappy, okay? ”
"Yes." Helian Yunlin responded.
