Chapter 36: Drunken Gaffes
Sheng Ge explained in the letter:
One: Let me listen to Zhan Xiao's arrangements and keep my distance in front of people.
2: I can't remember a lot of things when I was a child, so let me deal with it carefully and don't be deceived.
Three: Accusing me of planting people in the pear orchard and not saying a word to her, causing her to almost fight with Chu Xiong.
Oh yo yo · It's not my fault...
I want to tell you, I don't have a chance.
Four: There are many assassinations on the road, but the forces of all parties check and balance each other, and we are not in great danger for the time being.
Five: I can't take a break for the time being, but whether I can get the treasure token hidden in the pear orchard or not, I will meet with me before entering the imperial city.
I don't even feel the slightest guilt for not contacting me for a long time. This woman is so infuriating!
Knowing that she was all right, I felt a lot more at ease.
But a rough mention of the letter made me feel a little uneasy.
Sheng Ge mentioned in the letter that Liyuan was aware of Li's mother's replacement, and quickly replaced a new person in charge, and Xiao Mu disappeared with it.
In less than a month, Chu Xiong had already established himself in Liyuan.
Chu Xiong's matter is nothing, if he, a prince who wants to go back to take the throne, can't even stay in the pear orchard, then he won't return to China as soon as possible.
But why did Xiao Mu disappear?
To date, all three people associated with my identity have disappeared.
Aunt Qin left me a letter, but she was never heard from again.
Bao, although I knew that he was with Zhan Xiao, he never contacted me again.
Now Xiao Yu is missing again!
I wonder if there will be any connection between this.
I still have to find a chance to inquire with Zhan Xiao.
Zhan Xiao said that it is not easy to pass on the letter, it is easy to be exposed, and it will only increase the risk, don't let him help pass it on at length if you have nothing to do, this time it is a great risk to send such a thick letter.
I knew he was telling the truth, so I was no longer embarrassed to ask him to help me pass on something to her.
Every time Shengge sent a message, he would write an An, and I would also ask Zhan Xiao to reply to Shengge.
Zhan Xiao laughed a few times, saying that some people in this world are relatives, but they are not as tacitly trusting as me and her.
The days that followed the rush became regular.
At night, he practiced martial arts with Xiao Zhan, he was a good teacher, a good teacher who was many, many times stricter than Bao.
I have followed Ah Bao since I was a child, and my foundation is not bad, and I have made rapid progress.
Zhan Xiao has recently started to talk about the fact that when there are assassins again, you can let me go to the actual battle.
If you practice martial arts at night, you will naturally have to make up for sleep in the morning during the day.
In the afternoon, I studied the mechanism technique with Tang Zhaoyu, and my purpose was simply to be a machine player. She is different, she is like a madman, and she forgets to study the logic and dismantling of this lock, which is comparable to the degree of hard work of a student who wants to be the champion in the scientific examination.
Zhan Xu's layout and planning were meticulous, the route along the way changed many times, even most of the guards only knew the itinerary on the same day, and we rarely met assassins, and occasionally some robbers ran away in three or two.
I walked for more than a month.
In the past month or so, my martial arts have improved a lot, and I have grown taller.
The relationship with Zhan Xiao has also improved a lot, and I already dare to joke with him at night when no one is around.
But I haven't been able to find a good opportunity to ask Po about it.
Zhan Xu hasn't looked for me alone since he talked to me that day.
Cakes, fruits, and a change of clothes were all delivered to my carriage, but the people refused to show up again.
The willow tops on the moon, people about after dusk.
That night, I went to look for Zhan Xiao again, hiding from people all the way, and it was like cheating.
Zhan Xiao lit a fire in the suburbs and didn't train me as usual.
There was even a pheasant roasted.
"Your Royal Highness is so interested."
Zhan Xiao smiled and handed over a kettle: "Come and take two sips?" ”
I reached out and sat down beside him.
raised his head and muttered, and a spicy dar rushed straight to his head: "So strong? ”
Zhan Xiao seemed to be in a good mood and laughed twice.
This wine is very different from the wine of the pear orchard, the wine of the pear orchard is tender and smooth, with a fruity aroma, and it is very refreshing to drink, but it has a lot of stamina.
Zhan Xiao's wine is spicy in the mouth, straight to the brain, and the stamina is also great.
I threw my head back and took another sip, it was so exciting!
Zhan Xiao looked at me smashing my tongue spicily, and patted my back with a smile: "You are not the same as I imagined. ”
"Who does Your Highness think I am?"
"At first, I thought you were approaching Ah Sheng with a purpose, and wanted to use her to achieve your goal of getting rid of the pear orchard."
"Pull it down, she is almost close to me, so she points to me to be a maid for her..."
"Later, I saw that your heart to enter the palace was very firm, and I thought that you might be a spy from some country and set up a bureau to enter the palace and ambush you."
A gust of evening breeze blew, and the aroma of chicken came to the surface, and I sniffled: "It's so fragrant"
Zhan Xiao turned around the shelf of the roast chicken: "I have carefully checked your details, but I can't find anything." ”
"Your Highness is too worried, I have no second heart for Shengge."
Zhan Xiao tore off a chicken leg and handed it to me: "You haven't known her for a long time, how can you be sincere?" ”
"The interaction between people is not about the length of time, you have known the Third Highness for a long time, do you dare to give him your life?"
Under the firelight, Zhan Xiao's face was obscure.
"But I dare to hand it over to Shengge, I could set myself on fire in order to find her, and she was also imprisoned in order to save me, and we are a lifelong friendship."
I gnawed on the chicken leg in my mouth, and my speech was a little slurred, even if I said it clearly, he didn't understand it if he didn't understand.
"You really believe in her, but I want to know who you are?."
And I didn't sleep in the middle of the night, and came to interrogate me?
"Second Highness, why do people have to be innocent of everything in their lives? Since we are allies today, I must know everything about our alliance, but if it has nothing to do with the alliance, why should you go to the bottom of it? ”
I was sullen in my heart, and I poured a big sip of wine from the jug in anger.
Do you want to know my background? I also want to know who I am.
Zhan Xiao took back the wine jug from my hand, raised his head and took a sip: "I just asked you a few words, you are waiting for me to talk like this, and your courage is really getting bigger and bigger." ”
Xu was in a hurry to drink the two sips of wine, I was a little dizzy, and turned to face Zhan Xiao with the strength of the wine: "I'm Jinse... I... I don't even know my last name, and if you ask me who I am, I want to ask who I am! ”
Zhan Xiao frowned when he saw that my face was flushed, as if he was drunk, probably because he didn't expect me to drink so badly.
When I saw him stand up, I thought he was going to go, so I pounced on him and grabbed him by the corner of his coat and forced him down.
"Your Highness, if you find out my background, you can also tell me, this also saves me the trouble to check, anyway, I won't live long, what revenge is not revenge, at least let me die clearly·····"
"At least let me know who my mother is, who my father is, and where they are buried·····"
Zhan Xiao was pulled by me all the time, no longer spoke, and just sat quietly and listened to my complaints.
I drank this wine very much, and the grievances and pressures that had been accumulated for a long time began to vent out through the strength of the wine.
