Chapter 205: The Seven-Day Covenant

Embarrassed, embarrassed! Su Lan hurriedly blocked half of his face, and died of shame!

"Puff-" Liu Zijin chuckled, "No, there's no dirty thing." ā€

"Then master, why do you keep staring at me........" Su Lan muttered quietly.

"Because....... Lan'er is beautiful. Liu Zijin looked at Su Lan with a confused look, and the bewitching flower on his face, blooming vividly, as if it was fascinating........

"Ah......." Su Lan's eyes flickered, pretending not to hear Liu Zijin's words, and changed the topic and said, "Master, what arrangements do you have for today?" ā€

Su Lan originally wanted to ask Liu Zijin if he had anything else to do, and wanted to open the topic and send Liu Zijin away, but he didn't expect it........

Liu Zijin will bring her to such a place........

Small white snowflakes fell silently from the vast sky and fell to the ground dotted by stars....... After a while, the snow became heavy, like goose feathers, like catkins, covering the sky, connecting heaven and earth, and connecting as one........ The big stream rocks and the small stream stones in the stream were covered with snow........

In winter, it's so quiet. The cold has made the jumping and screaming river lose the sound of its babbling water........ Let the rushing rivers be silenced, the boundless sea be calmed, and let them rest.........

A slight cold wind blew, and Su Lan didn't feel cold, but only refreshed........

"Master........ How did you come up with the idea of coming here........"

Liu Zijin walked to Su Lan's side gently: "Since I came to Nanguo on the first day and found such a view, I thought that I would come here with you one day." ā€

Su Lan sat down and gently picked up a cup of tea, huh....... It was still warm, floating down the stream, riding the bamboo raft, Su Lan actually felt a little comfortable.......

A mountain, a stream, a bamboo raft, drinking tea, watching the clouds, listening to the birds, occasionally lived a lazy life......

"The wind is warm, the birds are broken, and the sun is high and the flowers are heavy. Every year, the women who cross the river and remember each other are picking hibiscus. Su Lan sighed softly.

Listen to the sound of birds in spring, cicadas in summer, insects in autumn, snow in winter, chess during the day, flute under the moon, pine in the mountains, and flowing water close to water.......

Liu Zijin glanced at Su Lan and pondered for a moment: "The mountain air is red at sunrise, and the sound of insects and birds is warm." The clouds are soaring, the water is flying, and the mountains are moving, and the heavens and the earth are in sight. The willow leaves are wet and wet, and the laurel bush is full of birds. Zhijun returned to Japan and remembered the name of the sea flower. Smoke and moon lake, summer rain with blessings. The sound of birds is a secluded path, and the dream is back to the eve. ā€

"Poof-" Su Lan couldn't help laughing, okay, why are you still right about the poem?

Liu Zijin Xu also felt a little strange, and sat down cross-legged: "Come, Lan'er, accompany me in the next game?" ā€

"The master has never won against me!" Su Lan said provocatively.

"Then try it!"

Liu Zijin held the black chess in his hand, and the fall was the first, Su Lan was not to be outdone, and followed closely........

"Lan'er? What do you think? For the teacher of this chess....... How's it going? Liu Zijin glanced at the chess game with satisfaction and looked at Su Lan with a smile.

Su Lan looked at this chess game and frowned....... How can it be? Master's chess skills have always been under her, huh?

"Hehe, Lan'er, can you admit defeat?" Liu Zijin asked slowly.

Admit defeat?

Su Lan raised his eyebrows, it was impossible to admit defeat........ Ask her to throw in the towel........ Never!

But........ Su Lan was also puzzled why Liu Zijin's chess skills had improved so much in just half a year.

I don't know....... Now Liu Zijin's scheming has become very deep, taking one step at a time, looking at three steps, planning and scheming, he is like a fish in water........

"Draw!" Su Lan clapped his hands and said.

"Draw?" Liu Zijin raised his eyebrows and asked rhetorically.

"Hmm........ That's right! Master, look at this chess game, you can't win against me, but I can't win against you either, so the best way is to draw! Su Lan said seriously.

Draw?! Hehe! He Liu Zijin will never play chess! Life is like a chess game........ One wrong step and one wrong step, the few months that he has been lurking in the country have changed his heart a lot, whether it is a powerful person or a woman, he will not make a peace with Xiao Ling!

Liu Zijin hooked his lips and smiled, and said lightly: "Okay, draw chess." ā€

Su Lan grinned.

In the next few days, Xiao Ling will rarely have time to stay in the royal mansion, the number of times Su Lan can meet him is simply very small, she doesn't know what he has been busy with recently, just after Chinese New Year's Eve, is official business so busy?!

These days, Liu Zijin will come to her almost every day, take her to some novel places, or see the scenery, or travel, or enjoy the snow, when the two of them get along, Liu Zijin has never mentioned the seven-day covenant, nor has he ever crossed the line, in short, Su Lan found that in the past few days, the relationship between Liu Zijin and her seems to have returned to when they were in Chu Yuan.

This was the sixth day of their seven-day covenant........

"Lan'er........ Tomorrow is the seventh day, and I await your answer. When they parted, Liu Zijin looked at Su Lan with deep meaning.

"........" Su Lan looked at Liu Zijin's side face and was stunned.

Is it only the sixth day?!

Time flies........

.............................................................................................................

"Your Highness! The man finally woke up! ā€

A guard ran in to report to Xiao Ling, and "that person" was the person who had been found by the people who had patrolled the city before, who was seriously injured and unconscious.

Xiao Ling's eyes narrowed and he strode out.

"I've seen His Royal Highness King Ling!"

"My subordinates have seen His Royal Highness King Ling!"

"The last general has seen His Royal Highness King Ling!"

As soon as Xiao Ling walked into the room, many people asked him for his luggage, and Xiao Ling waved his hand, signaling that they didn't have to be polite.

"How's it going?" Xiao Ling asked straight to the point.

"Y-Who are you!?" The pale-faced man on the bed stared at the vicious people around him with wide eyes, and looked at them vigilantly.

Xiao Ling shot a look, and the man immediately froze.

Xiao Ling's eyes were fixed on him: "What did you see that night?" ā€

"What?! What night?! What do you see?! The man's eyes wandered, dodging Xiao Ling's questioning.

Xiao Ling showed an impatient expression: "Say! What do you see?! What ambush?! ā€

"I—I don't know....... I don't know anything........." the man said incoherently, shaking his head incessantly, as if he was frightened.

Seeing that Xiao Ling's face had become bad again, Captain Hua took the initiative to stand up and say, "Your Highness, wait a moment and let your subordinates ask."

ā€

Xiao Ling glanced at Captain Hua, retracted his gaze, and dropped a sentence, "Ask what this king knows!" He strode out of the room........

After Xiao Ling walked out, there were only some of Xiao Ling's subordinates and some captains left in the room, and Captain Hua found an excuse to send Xiao Ling and the others out, and the rest were people in the army.

Captain Hua and several of them looked at each other a few times and looked at each other very tacitly.

And then.........

Captain Hua's originally kind face immediately became fierce, and he suddenly stepped forward and grabbed the pale man's collar on the bed, which frightened the pale man: "You, what are you going to do?!" ā€

"Who told you to be wounded? Say! Isn't it someone who traces back to the country?! ā€

"Who are you?"

Captain Hua snorted coldly, and as soon as he released his collar, the man fell directly on the bed with an unstable center of gravity.

"We are the army of the South, you better tell us who the smugglers were that day?" Lieutenant Hua glanced at him coldly: "Otherwise, you are a sinner who collaborates with the enemy and betrays the country in the south!" ā€

This person obviously didn't expect that he would be buttoned up with such a big hat, and his face turned white with fright: "I, I didn't collaborate with the enemy and betray the country........."

"Then tell me honestly what you saw and heard that night!" Captain Hua said fiercely.

The man was so frightened that he swallowed his saliva and looked around the room for a week before he slowly spoke, "That night, I originally wanted to go buy wine and drink.........

"Getting to the point!" Captain Hua shouted impatiently!

The man swallowed his saliva, did a good job of psychological construction, and glanced at Captain Hua in fear: "But I didn't expect that I would see it not long after I went out......... ā€

The man told the story of the incident.........

After listening, Captain Hua and everyone in the room glanced at each other, and said meaningfully: "This matter ........ You know what to say, right? ā€

"We understand." They replied.

....................................................................................................

This is the seventh day of the seven-day covenant agreed upon by Su Lan and Liu Zijin........

"Princess....... The four princes of the country are here again........"

Su Lan froze: "....... Say I'm not there. ā€
