Sketching requires full attention to depicting an object.

But now, there is not so much time left for Cheng Xiaohao.

So, he grabbed a decorative vase, chose a remote table, and began to paint it in detail.

Although he deliberately sped up his speed, Cheng Xiaohao was immersed in it without paying attention, and only the vase in front of him and the sketch in his hand were left in his eyes. When he came back to his senses, he realized that there were not many people left around him.

He hurriedly ran to the second floor, and even Princess Shen'an was gone.

The little guy who had found charcoal for Cheng Xiaohao before followed, and he asked respectfully, "Does Uncle need anything?" ”

Cheng Xiaohao turned around and asked, "What about Princess Shen'an?" ”

Xiaowu: "The princess has returned to the palace." ”

Cheng Xiaohao couldn't help but scolded: "Xie Te! ”

The little guy was puzzled: "What did the uncle say?" The little ones didn't hear clearly. ”

"It's okay, I didn't say anything about you." Cheng Xiaohao waved his hand, and he rolled up the vase sketch in his hand and held it in his hand.

At this time, the little guy intimately handed over a soft black rope with a good material: "Uncle can use this." ”

Cheng Xiaohao glanced at him in some surprise, took the black rope, tied the scroll, and thanked him casually: "Thank you." ”

The little guy grinned, "You're too polite. ”

Cheng Xiaohao couldn't help but sigh, he turned his head and asked the little guy: "Do you know when Princess Shen'an will come over again?" ”

The little guy shook his head: "This little one is not clear, and even if it is clear, it can't be told to others at will." ”

Cheng Xiaohao: "Then do you think Princess Shen'an may come back in the near future?" It's for you to guess, and of course, if you can't say, it's okay. ”

The little girl smiled: "This shouldn't be, it's been a year since this annex was rewarded to Princess Shen'an, and in this year, the princess has only come four times in total, which is well known." One was on the summer solstice last year, and I came to escape the heat; One was the Mid-Autumn Festival, accompanying the Queen Mother to enjoy the moon; There are two other times, namely the third day of the first lunar month and today's Lantern Festival. ”

According to this law, it seems that if the princess of Shen'an is not unexpected, it is indeed impossible to come back in the near future, and even if she comes back, it is estimated that it will be the next festival or something. What should I do with this painting in my hand?

Ah, by the way, you can ask Ning Wenyu or her father, Master Ning, to inquire!

Thinking of this, Cheng Xiaohao suddenly woke up.

He actually forgot about Ning Wenyu!

Other girls may still be waiting for themselves at the bottom of the mountain!

It's freezing this day, I just hope she has gone back on her own, otherwise I'm really sorry for her.

"Thank you for your answer, and I'll see you in the future."

After thanking this enthusiastic little guy, Cheng Xiaohao hurriedly went downstairs and went out.

When Cheng Xiaohao ran down the mountain in three steps and two steps to the lantern fishing place, it was already empty, and only a few old people were left cleaning.

It should be Ning Wenyu who went back first.

Cheng Xiaohao breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

But just in case, Cheng Xiaohao decided to ask these old people who were cleaning.

"Hello uncle, what are you doing here?" There were cleaners in this dynasty, and I don't know if they were hired by private individuals or recruited by the government.

The old man who was asked by Cheng Xiaohao raised his weather-beaten face, full of ravines like old bark, he looked at the young man in front of him, and after some consideration, he said tentatively: "Is this little Yanei just from other places?" ”

Cheng Xiaohao: "Is there anything special about it from other places?" ”

Old man: "No, nothing. It's just that those of us who have no children and no daughters, thanks to the imperial court's nursing home, can survive. Not only that, but now we can also help do what we can, in exchange for some honorarium, and we can live a better life than before. And these should not be available in the field. ”

Cheng Xiaohao: "Thank you for telling me." Excuse me, have you ever seen a woman in a green skirt with a white veil on the outside? ”

Old man: "Xiao Yanei, this is a difficult little old man, there are countless women in green skirts and white yarns, I don't know which one you are talking about." ”

Cheng Xiaohao: "She is relatively old and has no hair...... Also, she should have left very late, and I just want to know how long she has been gone. ”

The old man thought for a moment and shook his head: "This... I came late to the little old man, so I didn't have any impression. ”

It seems that Ning Wenyu should have gone back early, because if she left very late, it should be quite noticeable.

Old man: "But do you need the little old man to ask the other old friends?" Maybe they might have seen it. ”

Cheng Xiaohao thanked him: "That's naturally the best, thank you." ”

The old man returned the salute: "You're polite." ”

Then the old man took Cheng Xiaohao to ask several other old people, and learned from an old man that he had really seen an older woman in a green Luo skirt, who had been in the southwest pavilion for a long time, and didn't know where she was now.

After the old man led the way, Cheng Xiaohao came to a gazebo, which was said to be a gazebo, or even a small building. Because there is a pavilion connected here, above the pavilion, there are some pavilion aisles.

Cheng Xiaohao looked left and right, but didn't see Ning Wenyu's shadow, he looked up and wanted to look at the pavilions above, but found that although those pavilions had lights, they all closed the windows tightly and couldn't see the inside.

Cheng Xiaohao coughed twice, and shouted a few times at the top in a small voice: "Miss Ning Wenyu, Miss Ning Wenyu ......"

Originally, the correct way to shout should be the little lady, but Cheng Xiaohao really couldn't open his mouth, because in his impression, it seems that the title of the little lady is used to tease women. He's still not thick enough! Can't shout.

After shouting a few times, the windows above opened a few times, and Cheng Xiaohao looked up and didn't see Ning Wenyu.

But a few of the more daring girls upstairs made a fuss:

"Oh, where did this come from?"

"Brother downstairs is looking for your little love, isn't he? If you can't find it, let's see how I am. ”

"Oh, oops, you shameless people are so teasing the petty officials of the slave family."

"Hey, don't be shameless, I see, aren't you more cheap. But the little officials at the bottom are really good-looking, and even I, an old goblin, can't help but be tempted. ”

Listening to the laughter of the girls upstairs, Cheng Xiaohao really couldn't stand it.

I'm afraid that I will be aroused again.

He didn't want to walk around with his crotch covered at night.

But who are these girls upstairs? Why is it so open? Don't... Are they all from the Qin Mansion Chu Pavilion? But why are they staying in this place?

Although there are many doubts, Cheng Xiaohao does not plan to ask more, so as not to offend people again.

He quickly bowed to the girls who had opened the window for him, and then fled away.

I can't control the blood all over my body.

If you don't run away, you will be executed in public!

It's getting late at night, but the streets are still brightly lit, with small stalls and vendors crowding both sides of the road, and pedestrians enjoying the bustle and excitement of the Lantern Festival late at night.

Cheng Xiaohao was a little sleepy, and he followed his memory to the side of Xichun Tower.
