Chapter 017: Request
Leng An smiled: "Okay, I've always wanted a smart and clever sister like you." ”
"Sister, you're making fun of me again...... Then let's bow down! Ziyan took Leng An's hand and opened the door.
The two knelt down in the open space in front of the door, Leng An raised his right hand in the same way as Ziyan, Ziyan cleared her throat and said: "Today, Ziyan and Ruo'an are here to become Jinlan sisters, since then life and death have been entrusted to each other, good fortune and evil have been rescued, blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, and hardships have been helped. After finishing speaking, the two solemnly kowtowed to the sky and earth three times.
Ziyan helped Leng An to stand up, and smiled: "Sister, ......", Leng An also smiled and responded: "Sister......" Although the two of them also called each other like this before, the meaning of calling it now is different.
The two went back to the room, chatted for a while, and Ziyan went back to Zhengxiang Palace on an errand. Leng An was idle by himself, so he slipped away to the backyard again. The weather is cold, and Aunt Cao is inconvenient to walk around in the yard, but she likes to sit on the high stone steps in the backyard, hang her legs, listen to the wind and watch the rain, but also comfortable.
Leng An leaned against the pillar, which had fallen into disrepair, and the mottled patent leather was peeling off, revealing the wood inside. Leng An leaned on like this, from time to time the wind blew, and the snow accumulated on the eaves fluttered down, Leng An closed his eyes and tilted his head, feeling the wind passing through his cheeks, cool with some unmelted snow foam.
She closed her eyes and thought about what she looked like at home, her parents, and even Gao Tianze...... Do they get anxious that they can't find themselves? Or has it been so long that you have given up searching? Leng An thought that his elderly parents had no one to take care of, and a line of tears slipped down the corners of his eyes.
Leng An was distracted, not paying attention to his back at all. Father-in-law Yanlu pushed Leng Chen and stopped behind Leng An, Yanlu wanted to step forward to call Leng An, but was stopped by Leng Chen, he waved his hand, and Father-in-law Yanlu quietly retreated.
Leng Chen looked at Leng An, she was much thinner than when they first met, her hair was scattered, her hair swayed lightly with the cold wind, and her chin was slightly raised.
There was something on her cheek that flashed down, Leng Chen was curious, so she looked sideways, and then noticed that she was crying...... But he didn't cry out loud.
Her body is very thin, maybe she is a little cold, and her body trembles slightly, which makes people feel sorry. Leng Chen subconsciously untied the cloak on his body and gently covered her body.
only felt that there was warmth behind him, Leng An opened his eyes, looked back, and looked at Leng Chen's eyes looking at him. As soon as he saw that it was His Royal Highness, Leng An was about to get up and salute, but was held down by Leng Chen: "You are sick, the number of courtesies will be waived......"
Leng An owed, and nodded slightly at Leng Chen as a salute: "Your Highness Xie, but I ...... this cloak" As he spoke, he was about to take off the cloak on his body, but was stopped by Leng Chen again: "Your body is thin, let's wear it......"
Seeing Leng Chen say this, Leng An couldn't shirk it anymore, so he had to wrap his clothes tightly and lean aside. Neither of them spoke, only heard the sound of snowflakes falling, and Leng Chen opened his mouth half-loudly: "Are you still used to living here?" How's the injury going? ”
Leng An lowered his head and replied: "With His Royal Highness Lao's concern, Ruo'an's injury is almost healed, and thanks to His Highness's reward for the snow dew, he can recover so quickly......"
Leng Chen nodded: "I am wronged that you live here, but only here is the safest place for you......"
"Ruo'an understands, His Highness has bothered......"
"Joan...... Are you still happy with the name? ”
Leng An still lowered his head: "Your Highness is thoughtful, thinking about Ruo'an everywhere, Ruo'an is grateful......"
Leng Chen sighed: "I haven't seen you for a few months, why do you seem to be a different person, where did that straightforward girl go?" ”
Leng An paused for a moment, but in an instant, he understood what Leng Chen meant: "Back to His Royal Highness, Leng An is dead, and now there is only Ruo'an, and once you enter the palace gate, the truth is as deep as the sea, Your Highness knows much better than me...... Only by being careful in my words and deeds can I make a long-term ......"
Leng Chen was silent, the attitude of the woman in front of her was completely different from a few months ago, she was so submissive now, but somehow she said a different kind of sadness.
"His Royal Highness's life-saving grace, Ruo'an is unforgettable, Ruo'an still has something to ask for......"
"Huh?" Seeing that Leng An had something to ask for, Leng Chen was very surprised: "What's the matter?" But it doesn't hurt to say that. ”
Leng An thought for a while and said: "Ruo'an has lacked discipline since he was a child, and many of his etiquette are even more inconsiderate, and his personality is perverse, so he is really not suitable for living in this palace...... Please let me out of the palace ...... Your Highness."
Leng Chenleng, he had long wanted to come and see this girl, but he was held back by political affairs and never got the opportunity, but this time he saw it, but he got her request to leave the palace, which was really unexpected by Leng Chen.
Seeing that Leng Chen didn't speak, Leng An called softly: "Your Highness? ”
Leng Chen looked at Leng An, her face was really haggard, maybe this palace is really not suitable for her to live, is a bird as free as her not suitable for captivity? Why would he be so reluctant to let her go so easily? Is it the selfishness of his own love? Or something else?
Leng Chen thought for a while, and replied lightly: "Let's talk about everything after you are injured......" After speaking, he raised his hand, and Yanlu's father-in-law trotted over, Leng An stood up and saluted Leng Chen, until Leng Chen walked away, she realized that she still had his clothes on her shoulders and forgot to return them to him......
In fact, Leng An's heart is still full of gratitude to this highness, but he is homesick and his mood is at a low point, so his words are so depressed and affectionate...... However, Leng An did not regret what she had just said to His Highness, because leaving the palace was something she had been thinking about these days......
She has watched too many ** dramas, and she really doesn't want to experience the days of intrigue and intrigue, since she is here and can't change the facts, then she can only try hard and stay away from this place of right and wrong.
In the past few months in Kunxi Palace, Leng An has already seen how deep this water is from Aunt Cao alone, Aunt Cao is only the palace maid in charge of the Cold Palace, so what kind of means do those high-ranking queen concubines have to play to keep their current position? Leng An felt terrifying just thinking about it, and when he saw His Royal Highness today, he simply said this, if he could really let himself out of the palace, it would be the best.
On the snow, Father-in-law Yanlu pushed Leng Chen slowly, and when he saw that Leng Chen didn't say a word, he looked preoccupied, so he asked, "Your Highness, what's wrong with you?" So sullen? ”
Leng Chen didn't speak, and when Father-in-law Yanlu saw this, he didn't dare to ask any more, so he had to push Leng Chen towards the palace.
