Chapter 481: A sad smile

The young man, named Shanhuai, put the two meals in the basket on the table and left.

There was only a simple two-sentence conversation, and he said that his name was Shanhuai, which made Fan Li happy, because Meng Kui's Langjun was also called Shanhuai, if this young man happened to be Meng Kui's Langjun, then things would be much easier. Fan Li can fulfill his promise to rescue Shanhuai and let him go home to reunite with Meng Kui.

On the other hand, Fan Li can also use the relationship of Shanhuai to break through the cage and get rid of Wu Zixu's control.

However, when Fan Li asked him where he was from, he said that the village where she lived was called Mangrove. This made Fan Li very disappointed, because Meng Kui's village is not called mangrove forest, but Huangcaopo.

The address is wrong, obviously this is not Meng Kui's Langjun. There are so many people in the world, it is normal for people with the same name to appear.

But the question is, how is it so coincidental?

This is Fan Li's only chance to get out of control. This incident made Fan Li very disappointed.

"My lord, is the food not to your taste?" Xiao Wan asked softly.

Fan Li woke up from his contemplation and said, "Oh, it's good, the meal is delicious." "Talking about eating food.

Xiao Wan said: "Xiangguo said, if the adult has any requirements, even if he puts it forward, as long as the conditions allow, he will definitely meet the adult." ”

Fan Li said: "Can you call the shots about these things? ”

Xiao Wan said: "Xiao Wan can't call the shots, but she can pass on the words of adults." Ask someone outside to do it. ”

Fan Li said: "Thank you, girl, Fan Li is a person who doesn't pay attention to small things, just eat your stomach." I don't need anything here. You don't have to bother anymore. ”

Xiao Wan bit her lip, lowered her eyebrows, and whispered: "The concubine has a mission, she must serve the adult well, if the adult is not satisfied, Xiangguo will punish Xiao Wan." ”

Fan Li smiled and said: "Xiao Wan, don't worry, I will say good things about you to Xiangguo, just say that I am very satisfied with you, and I will not let you be punished." ”

Xiao Wan said, "Thank you, sir." ”

The two talked slowly, ate slowly, and after a long meal, they finally ate. Xiao Wan put the dishes and chopsticks together, and when the mountain acacia delivers the meal tomorrow morning, she will take it away by the way.

Xiao Wan blushed and said, "Do you want to go to bed now, or do you wait a while and go to bed?" ”

Fan Li was lazy and said, "Wait a while, I just finished eating, and I can't sleep well now." ”

Xiao Wan said: "Then I'll talk to the adults for a while." ”

Fan Li said: "It's okay. Girl, how old are you? ”

Xiao Wan said: "Xiao Wan is about to reach her seventeenth birthday. ”

Fan Li said: "Who else is in your family? ”

Xiao Wan said: "There is also a father and mother at home, and a younger brother, I have an elder brother, and this time he went to the army." ”

Fan Li looked at this girl, she lowered her head, spoke softly, and looked up at Fan Li from time to time, maybe it was the first time she was alone with a man, and she looked a little uneasy.

The population of Wu and Yue is not very large, and in order to support an army that can dominate the world, almost all young people have to become soldiers. Xiao Wan's brother can't escape such a fate.

Fan Li sighed softly and said, "Is your family's life okay?" ”

Xiao Wan said: "It's not good, I don't have cattle at home, and I have to do all the work manually, so it's very hard and tiring." ”

These common words eliminated Xiao Wan's inner uneasiness. She found that although Fan Li was a big official, he was very easy-going.

Fan Li said: "Girl, do you have a mother-in-law?" ”

Xiao Wan said: "Back to adults, Xiao Wan has had a little brother who likes me since she was a child, and Daddy and Auntie are also optimistic about him. Originally, this family affair had already been completed. But Xiao Wan was elected to the palace, and my little brother cried for a few days, and there was no way. I'm going to die. But seeing that his parents were pitiful, he did not die. ”

Another tragic story. Fan Li said: "Do you know the life in the palace? ”

Xiao Wan said: "I don't know, we have been in the workshop for a few months, and we have been learning those etiquettes in the palace. In the future, I will enter the palace and live like this, and I don't know at all. ”

Fan Li said: "Let me tell you about the life of the palace maids in the palace." He described the life of the palace maids in the palace to Xiao Wan. That kind of loneliness, that kind of boredom, especially if you can't see a man in your life. Until they were old and useless, they were either put to death or driven out of the palace. None of the palace maids ended well. If the monarch could be blessed and give birth to a child, the situation might be better.

These descriptions of miserable lives made Xiao Wan stunned, she didn't expect that she would live such a life. She looked sad and said, "Rather than this, it is better to die." ”

Fan Li said: "Even if you die, you can't change this life." There are also palace maids who commit suicide, and they will be like a dead dog, pulling out and burying things. ”

Xiao Wan's tears flowed. We country girls thought that if we entered the palace, we would live a good life, but who knew that this would happen? ”

Fan Li said: "But you won't live like this again." Since Wu Xiangguo asked you to come over, he would not send you to the palace again. As for what he will do with you in the future, I don't know. ”

Xiao Wan looked at Fan Li in horror and said, "My lord, will the prime minister kill Xiao Wan?" ”

Fan Li said: "That's not going to happen. As for what will happen to you in the future, it's all in Wu Zixu's thoughts. It depends on your fate. ”

Xiao Wan wiped her tears and said, "Isn't there a day for people like us?" ”

Fan Li said: "No, I was born as a pariah, and my ancestors lived like this for generations. ”

Xiao Wan secretly looked at Fan Li. She knew that Xiangguo gave her to Fan Li. She has to listen to Fan Li for everything. Including that kind of thing. Thinking of this, she panicked in her heart. She never dreamed that she would live in the same room as Fan Li.

About Fan Li, there have been various legends among the sisters, but there are very few women who have really seen Fan Li, and it is even more unimaginable to have the honor to say a few words to Fan Li.

Fan Li said: "Miss Xiaowan, go ahead, I'm going to sleep." ”

Xiao Wan looked at Fan Li in surprise: "My lord, you ...... Where to call Xiaowan? ”

Fan Li said, "Go to where you sleep." Wu Zixu asked you to serve me, I am very happy, you came, and someone came to talk and chat with me. But we can't talk day and night, right? Or you'll come back tomorrow. ”

Xiao Wan knelt down and said with tears: "Do adults think Xiao Wan is ugly?" ”

Fan Li said: "Get up, don't kneel down at every turn, I'm a prisoner now, not an adult." How could Fan Li dislike you? Who is there to dislike you? Actually, you were born beautiful and beautiful. How else would she be chosen as a palace maid? ”

Xiao Wan said: "Since adults don't dislike Xiao Wan, why do you want to drive Xiao Wan away?" ”

Fan Li pulled Xiao Wan up, wiped away her tears, and said: "Girl, listen, Fan Li is also a man, and I want to be close to you, but I can't, for you to be able to return to your little brother perfectly in the future, Fan Li can't touch you." ”。

Xiao Wan said: "But if I don't accompany you, Lord Xiangguo will punish me." ”

Fan Li looked at the only bed in the room and said, "But how do we sleep?" ”
