Prequel. Chapter 32: Return the Earrings
After thinking about it for a night, he still felt that he should return the earrings to King Chen, maybe he accidentally dropped them, he only said that the cloak was gone, not that the contents were also lost.
"Miss, do you really want to give this thing to His Royal Highness King Chen?"
"This is originally his, and besides, Ah Hang has never wanted me to have too much contact with him, I will return this to him, and in the future, I will not have anything to do with him."
He Yuyin went out early, and ran straight to King Chen's mansion, I sat in the carriage, and kept thinking, how could King Chen appear in the Lake of Forgetfulness at that time, he knew my identity, and should also know that we would meet in the capital one day, fortunately, we met on the day he returned to Beijing, he didn't say that he knew me, maybe for him, it's good not to let others know, who knows what he is doing in Peach Blossom Village.
God, what kind of lifeless thoughts do I have, he appeared alone in Peach Blossom Village, and there was no news of his return to Beijing at that time, indicating that he should stay at the border at that time, and left without asking His Majesty, if it is a big crime to be investigated, how important it should be for him.
Could he be doing something unseemly, like the Cloud King...
Then I don't know his terrible secret, he won't kill me...
These princes were so restless, first let me meet King Yun is Limo, and then let me meet King Chen.
He shouldn't have done anything to me, otherwise he would have done it when he was in Peach Blossom Village.
Thinking like this, I breathed a deep sigh of relief in my heart.
I don't know how long it took to get to the destination, Yuyin helped me get out of the carriage, I looked around, this street is extremely quiet, as far as the eye can see, you can only see this mansion, think about this Chen King, but also like to be quiet.
The door of the mansion was closed tightly, and Yuyin went to lock the door, and no one paid attention to it for a long time.
I wonder if this King Chen is not here, but I feel that it is so early, where can he go? Could it be that you haven't gotten up yet? But since you've come here and you've taken your things, you can't just go back without seeing them.
He stood outside the door with Yuyin, wanting to wait for a while.
The early morning wind blew cold on my body, and I was a little thin when I went out, and it didn't take long for me to feel a little cold.
I don't know if it's been too long, I feel that my legs are a little numb, and I called Yuyin to prepare to leave, but I didn't think that the door was suddenly opened, I saw the ink at a glance, and hurriedly stepped forward and shouted: "His Royal Highness King Chen." ”
When he saw that it was me, he was amazed, and walked up to me, and I was about to give it to him, but I saw that he didn't say a word and put his cloak on me, tied the hat cord, and touched my chin with his hand, and only heard him say, "It's so cold, why are you dressed like this and go out." ”
...
Yuyin and I stayed where we were, not daring to speak for a while.
After a while, he also realized this strange atmosphere, and put the cloak back away, and then looked to the side in embarrassment, I took out the things in my hand, thinking about how to speak, and heard him say, "Miss Su, what a coincidence." I still have some things, so I'll go first. ”
He walked forward, and I thought to myself, couldn't he see that I was waiting for him here? How could it be a coincidence. Then he stopped him again: "His Royal Highness King Chen." I've come here because I want to give it back to you. ”
He stopped and asked me, "What is it?" ”
I took out the things in my hand and showed him and stuffed them into his hand, "I have already thrown away the cloak, but when I threw it, I saw something fall out of it." I'm afraid that you forgot to take it, and you didn't dare to throw it away, thinking that I would return it to you when I was destined to see you again. ”
He took it, "Thank you, Miss Su." ”
I looked at the earrings, and I felt a little reluctant, and muttered, "These earrings are very beautiful." I remember that it was a treasure from the craftsmen of Jinmo Pavilion last year, and it was the only pair in the whole capital. ”
"Really? I forgot when and where I bought it. ”
I sighed: "Before this pair of earrings was created, the proprietress of Jinmo Pavilion also showed me the drawings, I saw it at a glance, and said that I would buy it when it came out, but I didn't expect that the craftsman only made a pair, and someone bought it first." I didn't think that person was you, Your Highness. ”
I was convinced of last night's conjecture, how could a man buy this woman's jewelry, or such a precious thing, it must be a gift, but I have never heard of any rumors about who this King Chen likes, and I want to know about it, so I asked him: "Your Highness bought this pair of earrings, is it to give away?" ”
As if he had guessed it, he was stunned for a moment and replied, "Yes, yes." ”
I looked at his twinkling eyes and continued to ask him: "Your Highness, are you going to give it to someone you like?" ”
Without the slightest hesitation, he said one word: "Yes."
It turns out that there are people who like this ice cube, and they also know to buy such a precious thing and give it away.
"Your Highness must like her very much."
"She is the first, and only, person I love in my life. Unfortunately, before I could give it to her, she had already left me. ”
I didn't expect me to ask casually, but I actually asked about other people's sore spots, and his experience is really similar to mine.
Pulling Yuyin and preparing to leave, he suddenly grabbed me, stuffed the thing into my hand, and said, "Miss Su, since you like it very much, I'll give it to you." ”
I hurriedly refused: "Your Highness, the courtiers don't dare." ”
He shoved it into me and let go of his hand, taking a few steps back, not allowing me to refuse.
"You think you picked it up, and this thing has nothing to do with me since the day I rescued you."
I held it tightly, in fact, thinking that what he said also made sense, in the end, I was reluctant, after all, I really liked that thing at that time, South Vietnam was on this one, and if I lost this, I would never have it again, since he gave it to me, I would take it.
I put my things away and nodded, "Speaking of which, I don't think I can thank you properly." ”
He shook his head: "With a gesture, Miss Su is polite." ”
I still have a little curiosity in my heart, he doesn't seem to be as unapproachable as rumored, and he is not so ruthless, killing people like hemp is also killing enemies on the battlefield, thinking about it, I can't help but ask him: "His Royal Highness King Chen, can I ask you?" Why did you appear in Peach Blossom Village that day? ”
"It's me going to deal with some personal matters, so it's inconvenient to say more."
Well, he didn't want to tell me.
If my guess is correct, it would be a good thing that he didn't kill me, and I should burn incense and worship the Buddha.
I blessed my body and pulled up Yuyin, "Then I, I won't bother Your Highness, and the courtiers will retire." ”
Yuyin said that Mu Jing came to me yesterday, but I had already fallen asleep, and he knew that I was going out today, so he asked Yuyin to help him bring some wine to Baiyue Tower when I went back.
The wine of Baiyuelou is one of the best in the capital of Nanyue, and Mu Jing likes to drink and picks it very well, and he has to change it every three or five times.
As soon as I walked to the door after buying wine for Mu Jing, I saw a person I didn't want to see.
"Girl, long time no see."
...
If I'm not mistaken, we only met last night.
"Is there something wrong?"
He suddenly reached out and put his hand on my shoulder, I was so shocked that I quickly pushed it away, he sighed, showing a very sad look, "Anyway, we are old acquaintances, we met on the road, don't we need to say hello?" ”
I nodded and asked him, "Yes, you're right." What are you doing here? ”
He pointed inside, "My third uncle and my brother-in-law have something to discuss, so we made an appointment to meet here." ”
His third uncle and his brother-in-law? Lord Shangshu and Commander Yin.
I questioned his words a little, "They talk, and they want to take you with them?" ”
He seemed to guess what I was thinking at once, and asked me, "Or do you think I deliberately wanted to meet you?" ”
Hearing him ask, it shouldn't be, and I laughed and said, "I didn't say that." I'm going home. ”
Pulling Yuyin to prepare to leave, as soon as he took the next step, there were several footsteps, and a male voice came into his ears: "Jun'er, who have you met?" ”
Ouyang Junyu replied: "It's the young lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion." ”
I watched him slowly walk up to me, about the same age as my father, but with several strands of gray hair on his sideburns, and his face looked very pale, and he had been staring at me ever since he came.
Ouyang Junyu poked me, "Yi'er, this is my third uncle." ”
I smiled politely, "Hello Shangshu-sama." ”
He was still staring at me, his eyes were not open for a moment, his eyes seemed to be dull, I glanced at Ouyang Junyu, but he also looked puzzled.
"Third uncle, what's wrong with you?"
He slowly spat out two words that were so familiar to me: "Zhen'er..."
may be familiar with this name, although he said in a low voice, but I heard it clearly at once, Ouyang Junyu on the side should not have heard it clearly, and asked: "Third uncle, what did you say?" ”
He looked away and said, "I'm sorry, I recognized the wrong person, where is she your age." ”
Then he said to Ouyang Junyu: "Jun'er, come and go for a walk with me again." After speaking, he slowly walked forward, Ouyang Junyu glanced at me suspiciously, and followed closely behind him.
"Like, really like. When she was younger, she was probably like you. ”
Suddenly thought of what Mu Jing said before, I haven't seen Mu Jing for so long, he saw me again and thought I looked like that person, Master Fang Cai Shangshu, probably recognized me as another person, but I was curious, he was the son of Nanming Hou, how could he have anything to do with Mu Jing, how could he also know that Zhen'er?
And looking at his demeanor and demeanor, it is clearly an affectionate look, and he also likes...
I'm really curious about that Zhen'er now, I can get Mu Jing's deep love, for her to stay alone in the wilderness mountain village, don't ask about the world, never marry a wife in her life, and make this Shangshu Lord unforgettable for her.
I once again boldly guessed in my heart that the Zhen'er they were talking about was the concubine.
I've grown so big, except for some people who say I look like my father, the other is a concubine.
