Yao Duran blurted out, "Your Highness, I understand! This is the story of the rich man and the beggar. When the country was in trouble, the beggar donated all his net worth of one hundred taels, and the beggar was admired by everyone. And if the rich man also donates a hundred taels, he will be scolded by everyone! ”

Huo Jingcheng's smile became thicker and thicker, and he praised: "You are really smart, you can understand it at one point." However, in addition to the concern of lack of people's hearts, I naturally have other intentions, do you want to know? ”

Yao Duran nodded.

Huo Jingcheng was not in a hurry to speak, but raised his glass with a smile and drank with her again. After drinking, he poured the wine and said, "What do you say?" Many things may not work when they go along the way, but they may be a surprise when they come backwards. A few years ago, the main hall was at the Shangyuan Lantern Festival, but I met a woman, uh, it was a woman, it was better to say that it was a widow with a bit of wealth, her husband died, and she inherited a strong family property. Well, in a medium state, as for the age, it seems to be a few years older than me. ”

"And then?" Yao Duran listened with great interest. For some reason, she loves to listen to his stories, his voice is low and steady, and he tells stories logically and eloquently, and he understands them as soon as he listens to them.

Huo Jingcheng continued: "Back then, the main hall wore a mask to the lampstand to give a reward, and that woman happened to see me in the audience, you say, will she take a fancy to me?" ”

"Giggles-" Yao Duran couldn't help but laugh and said, "Why are you talking about it so far here?" It was as if I was listening to a love story. ”

It was rare for Huo Jingcheng to see her smile like this, and he couldn't help but be stunned. Immediately, he also laughed: "Don't worry, the narrative of the main hall, no matter how far you go around, you can turn it back and end it successfully." ”

Yao Duran smiled when she heard this, and said, "Okay, Your Highness will continue to speak." ”

Huo Jingcheng said: "But you haven't said it yet, will she take a fancy to me?" ”

Yao Duran said firmly: "I must have taken a fancy to it!" ”

The corners of Huo Jingcheng's lips were deep, and he said, "Why? ”

Yao Duran thought for a while and said, "Since Your Highness has already asked so, then the story of Your Highness and her must have developed in this direction, so it can only be that she has taken a fancy to Her Highness, not Her Highness." ”

"Why?"

Seeing that he was still asking why, Yao Duran couldn't help but widen his beautiful eyes and said in surprise: "Your Highness?? Medium-sized widow?? Can you take a fancy to?? ”

Huo Jingcheng was blocked in his throat, and immediately lost his smile, and said, "You see that people are too shallow, right?" Why don't I look down on a widow of medium stature? ”

Yao Duran was speechless, but he didn't expect him to be like this. Yao Duran suddenly thought of Ning Wanshu, she was so sure that with Huo Jingcheng's identity, she would definitely not look down on Ning Wanshu. But now that she heard this, she knew that it was not unreasonable for the crown princess to say that Huo Jingcheng was romantic, he was really ...... All are welcome?

Huo Jingcheng saw that she suddenly stopped talking, so he put away his smile and said, "What are you thinking?" What do you think of me? Other! I'm not kidding you, I'm just joking. ”

Yao Duran shook his head: "I didn't think about anything, Your Highness will continue to speak." ”

"Hmm." He took a sip of tea and said, "That woman has indeed taken a fancy to me, she has no sense of proportion and no eyesight, seeing that I am wearing a gold mask and giving rewards at the lantern festival, how can she lack a few dollars?" Guess the result? She threw money at me in public and asked me to take off my mask and show her true face. ”

Yao Duran smiled: "And then? Did Your Highness listen to her? ”

Huo Jingcheng said: "Of course not. At this point, the story is coming to an end. The crowd in the audience coaxed me to remove my mask, but I never did, and soon left. Through this, is my noble man even more mysterious? More curious? ”

Yao Duran said: "Naturally, it is." ”

Huo Jingcheng said: "Then, I have saved enough curiosity, enough mystery, and one day I will suddenly reveal my identity, and everyone will know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been giving them rewards for so many years, at that time, it is not a scolding, but a surprise, but the desire of the people, and it is a beautiful talk about doing good deeds without leaving a name." This is the sentence at the beginning of the main hall, some things, you can't go along with it, and the effect is different if you go backwards. ”

At this moment, Yao Duran was dumbfounded. Suddenly, I realized that the man in front of me was a man with a heart like an abyss, smart and wise, with a ravine, and exquisite.

Huo Jingcheng met her beautiful eyes, analyzed the things in her beautiful eyes, and said with a smile: "Your reaction really makes me proud." ”

Yao Duran was calm and didn't hide what was in his eyes. Slowly recited: "The golden-faced nobles have been impersonating their names for many years to reward them with lamps, just to one day, unload the golden-faced people's desires. ”

What a far-reaching hard work, such a long battle with endurance, and such a tenacious heart...... The man in front of him didn't seem to be an ordinary person, but a god.

Here, when Huo Jingcheng saw her reciting such a string of words, he couldn't help laughing a few times, and slowly recited: "There is a beautiful woman in the north, in order to save the people of the suffering world, she does not hesitate to promise heroes with her body, and beg the heroes to help save the world and save the people." ”

Yao Duran was a little dazed and blurted out, "Wait, wait, this is ...... Which one is this? ”

Huo Jingcheng reminded: "It's the one that Lingchuan City suppressed the bandits." ”

"Huh?" Yao Duran's beautiful eyes widened, and then said: "It is true that there is such a bandit in Lingchuan City. However, how can there be such a thing as a hero? I didn't allow you! And at that time, you refused my invitation to suppress the bandits, who knows what you thought, and the next day you agreed. ”

Huo Jingcheng held back a smile and said, "Let me tell you, these good stories are often with a little eroticism in them, so they will be so deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and romantic." Ancient and modern literati love to listen to such jokes and promote them beautifully. Otherwise, who wants to listen to the story of the beautiful woman of the North begging for the heroes to help save the people? So, when it comes to other people's mouths, it's okay if it's not promised. Otherwise, other people's heroes don't want your ...... Uh, to put it nicely, beauty! Why did people promise to help you? Isn't that nonsense? ”

When Yao Duran heard this, he was speechless, and after a while, he muffled out a sentence: "That's it, I can't talk about Your Highness." ”

"Haha-" Huo Jingcheng smiled heartily and raised his glass again to invite her to drink.

Outside the window, the moon is shining, the lights are not extinguished, and there seem to be fireworks blooming in the distant sky, which is beautiful and far-reaching. Tonight's Qianjing is a city that never sleeps. People will party all night, dragging the tail of the New Year's Festival, and also sending the tail of the New Year's Festival.

Huo Jingcheng also followed her to look out the window and asked, "Do you like fireworks?" ”

"Nope." Yao Duran finished speaking without hesitation, retracted his gaze, picked up the wine glass and drank it again.

Huo Jingcheng looked at her, hesitated for a while, and suddenly said, "Yao Duran, you ...... What is the relationship with Du Yan? ”

Well? Why? She and Du Yan?? The relationship between old acquaintances??

Yao Duran was surprised and confused: "Why does Your Highness ask that?" ”

Huo Jingcheng said: "Isn't it? Du Yan helped you resolve the poisoning of the well water. Afterwards, he killed Jia Shuyan for you. Even for you, he didn't leave any evidence at the scene that could accuse Qiao Fengzhi, but simply to protect you, and took the risk to get rid of a person who harmed you. ”

"What ??!!" Yao Duran was stunned.

Jia Shuyan? Was it Du Yan who killed him? Du Yan helped her catch ghosts, Huo Jingcheng even knew?

How does he know everything? And how did he know?

Yao Duran was shocked and said, "What His Highness said is true?" How did Your Highness know about it? ”

Huo Jingcheng smiled lightly: "Jia Shuyan's death, at first I thought it was done by King You. But on the night of Qiao Fengzhi's wedding, Du Yan got drunk and went to kill Jia Shuyan at night, he clearly threw the jade pendant on his body elsewhere, but he was so drunk that he thought it was lost in Jiafu, for fear that the jade pendant would be exposed on the second day, so he came to me before dawn and told me about it, and asked me to think of a way to protect him. Then I naturally wanted to ask him why he killed Jia Shuyan, and he said that Jia Shuyan sent someone to poison your well. It can be seen that his heart for protecting you could not be clearer. ”

I see, I see!

Du Yan, Du Yan, what a Du Yan, he actually protected her like this, really protected her like this......

Huo Jingcheng saw that she was speechless, so he said slowly: "So? You were taken off by Qiao Fengzhi and got along with Du Yan again? ”

"Nothing! Why did Your Highness insult me like this?? Yao Duran suddenly broke out, stood up and yelled at him, and suddenly burst into tears: "Why did Your Highness insult me? I'm humiliated to this point, and it's good to be willing to live! How can I be good with this and that? You...... Now everyone is bullying me for not having a husband, isn't it? I! If I get along with Du Yan, I will teach me that the sky thunders and splits, there is no corpse in death, and I will fall into the animal path for the rest of my life, and I will never be reincarnated! I...... Not! ”

Huo Jingcheng stood up suddenly, rushed to the opposite side and covered her mouth, and said ashamedly: "Yao Duran, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I hurt you with a loose temperament for a while, I'm sorry, you are calm and calm." ”

It's okay not to be comforted, but once comforted, all the pain and misery can't be hidden. She was still covered by him, and she cried "whining", and the hot tears flowed down the back of his hand. Huo Jingcheng seemed to be burned, and hurriedly withdrew his hand, turned to hug her and took her into his arms, and said in a gentle tone: "Yao Duran, I'm sorry." You, don't cry, I'll tell you another joke? ”

Yao Duran was buried in his chest and cried sadly, and when he heard this, he suddenly looked up from his chest: "Laugh? Can I laugh out loud? Your jokes aren't funny at all! It also scared me! You let go of me, I'm going home, I'm dying of pain! ”

Huo Jingcheng hugged her and didn't let go, and said nervously: "Where do you hurt??" ”

Yao Duran put his hands against his chest and pushed hard, while saying, "My heart hurts, my heart is about to die!" I don't even know how long I'll be able to make it like this! I'm already so low-key, why do you still know about a little sesame big movement on my side? Do I really have to dig a hole to hide? ”

The slender waist was hugged tightly by him, she couldn't push it away for a long time, and changed her strategy to break his arm, but it was still in vain.

The orchid fragrance on her body is faint, mixed with the fragrance of fruit, and the pear blossoms bring rain to Chu Chu pitiful, being tossed in the arms of such a person for a long time, Huo Jingcheng actually had an unspeakable reaction at an inopportune time, so he warned in a low voice: "Yao Duran, you'd better calm down quickly, I can also apologize to you again until I make you happy." But if you want to go home again, or toss like this again, I'll ......"
