Chapter 191: The Jade-Faced Child
The attack on Xu was extremely fast, and what was wanted was to catch the Xu State off guard, just when Zhi Lan was still worried about why Sui Jing led a large number of soldiers and horses to Xun Di, Sui Jing had already joined forces with the soldiers sent by Yi Zhixing to resist the Xu soldiers.
It wasn't until a few days later that Zhilan learned about the current situation from Li Falcon.
"Are they already on their way?"
"It's been dispatched a long time ago, Sister Lan, I don't know how many days this group has been going, how did you only know now? If you don't want to be stuffy in the house all day, you won't listen. If you want to know anything in the future, just ask Falcon, and Falcon knows everything. ”
Seeing that Zhilan was always frowning, Li Falcon finally opened his mouth and expressed the confusion he had been feeling in his heart. "By the way, Sister Lan, who were you last time? How do you know the general of Xundi? Could it be that you met in that Jiaoyi restaurant in the past? I'm afraid this general has taken a fancy to you, and it seems that he wanted to eat the falcon last time! ”
"You're talking nonsense! You can see that he is a family man, and you must not talk nonsense like this in the future, or I will be angry. ”
"Okay! Hayabusa doesn't say it, Sister Lan, don't be annoyed with Hayabusa, Falcon cares about you very much! ”
"Don't talk nonsense, Sister Yuyan is your wife, I have nothing to do with you, I still have something to do, I'll go back to the house first, I'm afraid that Sister Yuyan will come to look for you again in a while, you just stay here, don't hide in Tibet, you can't hide."
Hurriedly leaving a sentence, Zhilan returned to her room in an instant, and there was an inexplicable melancholy spreading among her eyebrows.
"Hey! Sister Arashi! Sister Arashi! Don't go! Hayabusa doesn't want to face that woman alone! Sister Arashi! ”
Zhilan ran fast, like a man deliberately hiding from behind, and when she reached the house, she closed the door tightly, and then kept her brows tightly locked, looking extremely anxious.
"I hope Sui Jing has a safe journey."
What came out of her mouth unconsciously was Zhilan's heartfelt words, but after she realized her gaffe, she hurriedly patted her head again, suggesting that she should not mention the word Sui Jing again.
"Rausch! How to mention him again! Now that he has a family, I shouldn't worry about him anymore. ”
Some time ago, Sui Jing also swore an oath with Zhi Lan, and within a few months, the man was still standing beside his new wife, and all the good things in the past had come to naught, to be honest, Zhi Lan thought that Sui Jing would come here to look for her, but he didn't think that the man was not only looking for it, but he was getting colder and colder, and always took his wife with him, even if Sui Jing didn't say anything, Zhi Lan also understood his intentions.
"I can't think about him anymore, there is no way for me and him to come to fruition......"
Zhi Lan frowned and kept telling herself, but the hidden pain in her heart could only be felt by herself.
At this moment, there was a knock outside the door, which more or less dissipated the depression when the woman was alone.
"Miss Zhilan, are you still on stage tonight?"
It was Lu's mother's voice, since the end of the last incident, Zhi Lan has not felt to perform on stage, lest the troublemakers pour out again. However, today, after experiencing the heartache, Shira-ran no longer wants to be alone in the house, she just wants to play the shamisen, and hopefully as the days go by, the longing will be able to stop.
"Mother Lu, I want to go on stage, is that okay?"
"Of course you can, as long as you want to do it, Miss Zhilan, isn't it easy? You can rest assured, no one dares to say anything this time, through His Majesty's 'Hero Save Beauty' last time, this group of guests will not dare to make things difficult for you! ”
Having said that, Zhi Lan still has fear buried in her heart, before she came to power, she had found a dagger to hide in her sleeve, if the matter has reached the point where it can't be solved without a blade, Zhi Lan doesn't mind splashing some blood.
This time, Zhi Lan didn't wear a veil, anyway, everyone already knew that the monarch killer back then was now making a living in this Qing Dance Building, and Zhi Lan had nothing to hide in the end.
After she took the stage, there was a moment of silence in the noisy hall, but in a moment, everyone began to laugh again, as if they did not care about the women on the stage, but their afterglow always glanced upwards consciously or unconsciously.
Shiba Lan played the shamisen to herself, not looking at the afterglow of the people, but thanks to the quiet sound of her strings, everyone's attention quickly shifted from the woman's life to her skills, and she didn't realize that Shiba Lan was a heinous sinner.
Mother Lu had been secretly observing all this, and seeing that everyone was not restless, she left with peace of mind.
Soon after, Zhi Lan seemed to notice that a pair of burning eyes in the crowd were staring at her, which was almost an inexplicable touch, when she looked down, there was really a pair of elegant eyes cast at her, when the two looked at each other, the son of the lower head smiled, Zhi Lan instantly lost her eyes and continued to play.
Zhi Lan didn't pay attention to these disciples, just as she used to be as cold as she used to be in the Jiaoyi Pavilion, although this son really didn't look like a disciple, but Zhi Lan didn't care about these details at all, and she turned a blind eye to anyone who looked at her.
"I wonder who the girl above is who plays the tune?"
The boy asked the person next to him, as if he was extremely interested in Zhilan's existence.
"She, she's ......" The answerer wanted to tell all the evil things Zhi Lan had done in the past, but before blurting out, he still realized that the Son of Heaven was here last time when he 'heroically saved the beauty', so naturally, he also changed the wording, and then said euphemistically: "She, in short, you should not beat her idea, she is not a woman you can deal with, maybe you are at risk of killing her if you approach her!" ”
The answerer deliberately intimidated this delicate-looking jade-faced boy, but the boy didn't change his face at all, and his elegant temperament didn't seem to be violated by any disturbances in this world, he just smiled indifferently, never frowned for a moment, and lowered his head once.
When Zhilan finished performing and was about to step down, the elegant son had been following her, and Zhilan suddenly stopped.
"Childe, what are you going to do?"
Zhilan didn't look back, but the impatience in her tone could be seen by anyone with a discerning eye.
"This girl, don't misunderstand, I'm just attracted by your strings and want to hear it again, if I have this honor in I'm here."
Childe's voice was always warm and did not have the slightest intention of aggression, but Zhilan was still quite dissatisfied with the behavior of the man behind him, not so much dissatisfied with him, but because he had been entangled in trivial matters recently, so he felt irritated when he saw people.
The next moment, Zhi Lan Ran looked back, and when she saw the son in front of her up close, Zhi Lan was really shocked, because his temperament and appearance are undoubtedly one of the few in the world, not to mention that Sui Jing's appearance is not as good as five or six out of ten, and even a man like Li Ying who makes a living from his appearance is less than half of him. The facial features of this son seem to be carefully carved out by a famous artist, and there are no flaws.
Sure enough, people are creatures who love beauty, even Zhi Lan is no exception, Shi Cai still rejected him righteously, and when he turned around, Zhi Lan's majestic tone was obviously relaxed.
"This childe, if you want to hear my performance, why don't you come back tomorrow, anyway, I will pluck the shamisen here every night in the future, if you can afford me, come back another day."
"But I still want to listen to another song today, even if it's a song, as long as you are willing to agree, girl, I will pay 10,000 taels of gold in exchange for the time of a song."
The person in front of him was extremely sincere, Zhilan carefully looked at him for a moment, and finally couldn't bear to refuse, so he had to reluctantly agree.
"Cheng, that's a song, but I don't want your money, when this song is over, I'll ask Childe to leave quickly."
"Okay, thank you girl for the lift."
After that, Zhilan took him into the private room inside, and the prince always kept a distance from Zhilan, just watching her from a distance, and never had any ambiguous behavior. Zhilan likes this distance, and also appreciates the virtue of the current son from the bottom of her heart.
But somehow, in this process, Zhilan always felt that there was something strange around her, but when she stopped to listen carefully, she didn't hear any sound, and she once thought that she had a delusion.
After the song, perhaps because the suspicion in her heart was still there, Zhilan hurriedly put down the shamisen in her hand and urged: "Childe, after the song, you can leave." ”
This time, the son's temperament seemed to have suddenly reversed, but he never got up, but leisurely sipped the tea on the table.
"Girl, why are you in such a hurry? I heard that you are Yin Jun's favorite woman, so why did you fall into this smoke willow land at one time? I also heard that some time ago, Yin Jun stood up for you here, these rumors have already circulated in everyone's mouths among the people, Yin Jun really still loves you, right? ”
The boy sipped tea while casting a mysterious and elegant gaze on Zhilan.
Zhi Lan narrowed her eyes slightly, feeling more and more suspicious.
"This son, I'm afraid these things have nothing to do with you, right? What did you mention this for? ”
"These really have nothing to do with you, but I want to know, Yin Jun, does he still love you deeply? There is only one question below, and I hope that Miss Zhilan can answer it for me. ”
As soon as these words fell, Zhi Lan stood up in an instant, and her negative posture was revealed.
"This son, it's better that you don't interfere in other people's private affairs, although I don't know why you are interrogating me about this today, but I won't tell you half a word."
After dropping these words, Zhilan wanted to get out of here as soon as possible, because her subconscious was reminding her all the time that it would not be good for her to stay here.
Sure enough, the next moment, the boy who was still polite suddenly got up and grabbed Zhi Lan, who wanted to leave, and his actions were so fast that Zhi Lan couldn't dodge, so he could only be grabbed by his wrist.
I have to say that the strength of this jade-faced boy is not as feminine as his appearance, and it is not a problem to match the generals on the battlefield, let alone the hostile Zhi Lan.
"You let go of me! What are you going to do? I know you're not at ease! ”
"If you know that you are not at ease, why does the girl go here with you? Aren't you knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, and you are stupid enough to favor the tigers? ”
The man burst out with a soft laugh, and his still gentle appearance was in stark contrast to his current arrogant demeanor, and Zhilan only felt that the person in front of him was even more incomprehensible.
"Let go of me! Tell me, who art thou, and what thou wilt do? ”
"Miss Zhilan don't need to be anxious, you will know who is down there and what your intentions are in a moment."
As soon as the words fell, the jade-faced boy immediately raised a light smile, looking so non-aggressive, but at the same time making people's hairs stand on end, and he was full of a terrifying sense of unknown in front of him.
