As soon as I took a step, the eldest princess of Anyang stopped me, "The county lord stays." ”

The fourth brother and I stopped at the same time, both looked at her, she raised the corners of her mouth at me, looked down at the person who was still kneeling on the ground, her face changed suddenly, without a trace of hesitation, and opened her mouth to give her the death penalty, "Come on, drag this cheap maid down, and beat her to death with a stick!" ”

The maid was so frightened that she collapsed on the ground, and then grabbed the skirt of the eldest princess of Anyang, begging for mercy, kowtowing over and over again, looking earnest.

But she remained unmoved, and waved her hand at the guards who came over.

After the maid was pulled down, she looked at me again, "County Lord, I hope you will forgive me." Her tone was soft and sincere, as if she were apologizing.

I really didn't have any opinion on her, glanced at Ouyang Junyu, and then responded: "Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is serious, how can Ruo Lian afford it." ”

"I will report this matter to the royal brother truthfully, and I will never let the county lord suffer for no reason..."

The fourth brother seemed to be impatient for a long time, and interrupted her without saying a word, "Don't bother." We still have something to do, so let's go first. ”

I've never seen the fourth brother look like this, so rude, I always thought that only the third brother would be like this, I didn't think that one day... The fourth brother will also be because of me... I suddenly felt that I was a little wrong, and if there was something, I should have made it clear to him as soon as possible, and I shouldn't hide anything.

If... If things really don't go so smoothly and something happens, I can't afford it.

The scene was silent, the eldest princess of Anyang was deflated, but she was not annoyed, I nodded at her, and followed the fourth brother away.

I didn't say a word all the way, just walked behind the fourth brother with my head down.

I was ready to be scolded, but he didn't say a word to me, and went back to the house to tell me to rest and take me out in the evening.

...

"Am I doing something wrong?"

This kind of Situ Yechen, who doesn't attack anything and doesn't care about it, really frightens me.

I sat in the courtyard for a while, wondering whether to take the initiative to find the fourth brother to make it clear, when Murong Ling talked about me during the banquet, he must have been anxious, worried about me, and had to endure so many people throwing dirty water on me, and he couldn't explain what he couldn't get angry at.

He wasn't sure if I was really okay...

I kept thinking about it, lying on the stone table in the courtyard and counting the leaves on the tree, talking to myself for a long time, and finally decided to go to the fourth brother, but I was too sleepy and fell asleep on my stomach.

The cool breeze swished and blew through in bursts before I woke up.

I was dazed, thinking that I was going to find the fourth brother, but I caught a glimpse of a person sitting on the roof.

"Fourth brother, what are you doing?"

I stood up and asked, but he didn't answer me, just looked at me, then picked up the book in his hand and lay down.

"Fourth brother!"

There was silence.

I thought I was dazzled, and I rubbed my eyes, but I didn't seem to have any.

...

"Fourth brother, why don't you ignore me?"

He still only does his own thing, ignoring me.

"Fourth brother!"

"Fourth brother!"

"Situ Yechen!"

“...”

Still didn't react, I patted my heart, exhaled a few deeply, put my voice soft, spoke softly, and cried, "Fourth brother, I want to go back to Beiliang, I want my father and mother, as well as the second brother, the third brother, and Yuan'er." ”

He paused, threw down the book, jumped down, and walked in front of me in a few steps, "Do you want to go back?" ”

I nodded, couldn't help laughing, and was afraid that he would ignore me again, so I reached out and hugged him, clasping my hands tightly, "Fourth brother, you are so good to me." ”

...

There was silence again.

He gently pushed me away, stroked my hair, shook his head, and said, "You! ”

Pretending to be pitiful, I used to do it a lot, who can stand me? Even Daddy won't, it's a pity that I don't like to do this in front of him, otherwise I wouldn't be caught and punished by him every time.

Seeing that he was not angry, I opened my mouth and took the initiative to tell him everything about today, and he did not have any big mood swings, only told me that I had to tell him everything in the future, especially in this unfamiliar South Vietnam.

I drank wine with my fourth brother for a while, but I didn't drink a few sips, he drank it all the time, I just made up the numbers, I really just accompanied him.

After drinking some wine, he read the book for a while, I knew that his patience was excellent, and he would not feel irritated after looking at it for a few hours, and I was still worried about the things in the Hou Mansion, and I felt guilty, so I sat beside him and watched him like that.

In the evening, he sat on the trunk of a tall tree on the edge of the backyard playing the flute, saying that he would go out to eat when the wind blew for a while.

After I told him about today's events, he took the initiative to speak to me, no more than ten sentences in total, and when I asked him something, he just smiled and nodded, unwilling to say a word.

"Fourth brother, have you ever liked anyone?"

“...”

Silence to be expected.

I pouted, "Forget it, you wood, you only know how to practice swords and flutes all day long, and you definitely don't." ”

I threw one flower after another, and I heard him slowly spit out one word: "Yes." ”

The fourth brother has never been involved in love, whether it is in the eyes of outsiders or in the eyes of his family.

My mother often says, what is going on with my three elder brothers, except for the eldest brother who has already been married, no other love has ever been touched, especially the second brother.

The fourth brother often laughs with me and the second brother, so he can live with Yuan'er in this life.

The word "yes" undoubtedly aroused my strong suspicions, and I asked with interest: "Which girl is it?" Do I know each other? ”

He stroked the flute in his hand over and over again, smiling and speaking softly, "Know!" ”

I jumped up excitedly, threw the flower in my hand, and looked up at him, "Really? Who is it? ”

He smiled and didn't answer.

I thought about it for a while, carefully thought about the women next to the fourth brother, and began to guess one by one.

"Let me guess, is it the second lady of the Han family?"

"It's not."

"Then, is it Miss Yang who you helped last time?"

"It's not."

"Then, my mother introduced you to you, Miss Yin?"

"It's not."

He denied it, but after thinking about it, there are only a few of them.

I shook my head slightly, and nodded again, "Ao, I know, it's not our Beiliang, it's Nanyue, right?" ”

He came down from the tree and sat down casually on the grass, "Don't guess. ”

I sat down next to him and grabbed him by the arm, "Can you tell me?" ”

He tugged at the corners of his mouth slightly, there was no smile on his face, and he said a perfunctory sentence to me, "I'll tell you next time." ”

“...”

Next time... Every time there's something you don't want to tell me, just tell me.

"Let's go, let's eat!"

What kind of woman can win the heart of the fourth brother, I thought that he would never like someone in his life.

I didn't expect the old iron tree to bloom one day.

There are only a few women around the fourth brother, except for the few I just said, who else can it be? If he is from South Vietnam, he has not been to South Vietnam a few times in total, although he knows many people, but there are few women.

Could it be... It's Murong Ling...

After all, he is as good as Murong Lingyang, he is tired of being with him every day, and he has been to Murong Mansion many times, so he sees Murong Ling more often, and he spends more time in contact with her...

Oh my God, how is this possible? Not either!

I denied this idea in my heart over and over again, this should be impossible, absolutely impossible!

No matter how much the fourth brother practices himself, he won't fall in love with that Murong Ling.

No, what was I thinking? What is practicing yourself, a character like my fourth brother, the person who will look at it will definitely not be bad, regardless of family background and appearance, at least the character can be passable.

I don't know why I don't have an appetite at all, and what I put in front of me is my favorite dish, but I don't want to eat it at all.

My head was still a little dizzy, and the fourth brother asked me to drink with him, but I immediately refused. I still secretly thought in my heart, I drank so much during the day, I haven't drunk enough, what's wrong with this Situ Yechen today?

"If you don't want to eat, go out for a walk by yourself, and I'll come to you later!"

I nodded, and walked out alone.

I still remember when I first arrived in South Vietnam, I met Murong Yiyang in the palace, his eyes covered with white silk and his head full of white hair, always reminded me of it and made me feel uncomfortable, and I couldn't find a reason to make him so.

Then I met Lou Yihang, Murong Ling, by the way, and King Yun, I seem to have only met him twice in total, and I haven't spoken anything to him.

On my second day in South Vietnam, I met Ling Xie Yun...

That's it, this person, shouldn't think about it.

It's a little cold outside today, and there are fewer people, so I'm afraid it will rain for a while. It's a bit bleak, but I like it.

I walked for a while, my steps were a little sore, so I sat in a nearby pavilion for a while, and teased a few birds on the side, and when they all flew away, I felt even more bored, thinking that I should go back to find the fourth brother.

Before I could get up, I saw a familiar figure under the tree in front of me, walking towards me, and when I saw his face clearly, I froze in place, and my feet could not move.

I watched dumbfoundedly as he approached, getting closer and closer to me, and finally sat down next to me.

"Xiao Yan, long time no see."

I exhaled deeply, bit my lip, turned my head, and tried to leave, but my feet seemed to be frozen, and I couldn't move.

It's really him, how is he... Suddenly he appeared next to me again...

As if he was stunned, he grabbed my hand and called me again, "Xiao Yan..."

I shuddered, looked down at the hand he was holding, my mind was wooden, and the tip of my heart was trembling.

He clenched his fists and said softly: "Should I call you Ling Gongzi, or should I call you..." Those words are obviously so far away from me, but now, the person standing in front of me, he is really that.
