On this day, Ami stood near the counter to greet the guests, Xiaolian was also busy fighting, and the drunkard house was still full of people.

A boy about six or seven years old ran in at the door, ran straight to Ami, tugged at her sleeve, and said in a soft voice, "Sister Ami, someone asked me to give this to you." ”

Ami looked down and saw the boy, her eyes were full of smiles, she took the envelope in the boy's hand, touched his head, and was very affectionate, "Amu, don't you have to go out with your mother today?" ”

The child who was called Amu sniffed, and his little face was flushed, "Yes, Amu will give the things to Sister Amei and go back!" ”

Ami put her hand on his shoulder and shouted inside, "Little Lian! ”

The guests of the drunkard house have long been accustomed to her voice, and it is not strange.

Xiaolian heard the voice and immediately ran over, "What's the matter, Sister Ami?" ”

Ami glanced at Amu and smiled lightly, "Didn't we buy an extra hibiscus cake in the morning, take it out and let Amu take it back, it's not good for us to keep it and waste it." ”

When Xiaolian heard this, she immediately had an epiphany, and ran to the kitchen in response.

Amu lost his father when he was very young, and was raised by his mother since he was a child, and the family often can't make ends meet, and he is also a poor child.

After a while, Xiaolian came over with a paper bag, she handed the paper bag to Amu, and smiled, "Na, take it, children can't be hungry~"

Amu grinned, his eyes full of joy, "Hmm! Thank you, Sister Ami, Sister Xiaolian! ”

Xiaolian patted him on the shoulder, "Go back quickly, if you don't go back, your mother should be worried." ”

Amu smiled at them, then turned and ran out as he had come.

On the other side, Ami had already opened the envelope, with a somewhat puzzled expression.

Xiaolian leaned over, looked at the only five words "Huaihe Lantern Festival" on the letterhead, and was even more puzzled, "Sister Ami, who sent this letter?" ”

Ami thought for a while, and hesitated in a hesitant tone, "I don't know very well, but I think this paper is very good, let me go to the Huai River, will it be ......?"

Ami glanced at Xiaolian, Xiaolian thought about it, and laughed happily, "Could it be King Ning?" ”

Ami didn't answer her this time, turned around directly, and ordered neatly, "I'll go out, you take a good look at the business~"

Xiaolian looked at her back, a little helpless, and finally had to sigh faintly and resigned herself to staying in the drunken man's house.

When Ami left the drunkard's house, it was close to Shenshi, she walked briskly along the way, and soon arrived at the Huai River, the place where the lanterns were put that day, but when she arrived, she didn't see King Ning.

She looked around, but heard a shrill voice behind her, "White girl? ”

After Ami was sure that she had heard correctly, she turned around hesitantly, only to see a strange man.

The figure was slightly fat, about forty years old, and his eyes were calm, but he seemed to be able to see through the world, as if he had experienced the precipitation of time, and looked very stable.

He looked Ami up and down a few times, and couldn't smile at the bottom of his eyes, "It's really a stunning city, no wonder the two masters will move their minds." ”

Ami was puzzled and a little wary, "Who are you?" ”

The man walked up to her, his voice soft but emotionless, "I came to you today to convey a word for today's saints, and the white girl should listen to it." ”

Speaking for today's saints?

She is a little proprietor, how can she stand the words of the saint, I am afraid it is not a good word.

Ami's heart tightened, but her face remained silent, and she looked at him with a smile, "Please make it clear." ”

The man retreated half a step away, and his behavior was all like the atmosphere of the palace, and he must have lived in the palace for a long time.

"The royal marriage pays attention to the right family, the girl is naturally beautiful, but because of her identity, she must not be able to enter the royal door, if you are willing to stay away from the two masters, when you reach the age, the saint should point out a good family affair for you."

Ami chuckled, "I'm afraid my lord has misunderstood, the folk girl and the two princes are just friends." ”

The man was silent, and the wind was light, "The girl still listens to my advice and leaves early, you haven't seen the royal methods, but the people you have seen are basically dead." ”

Ami was stunned for a moment, feeling as uncomfortable as a hammer, and a little breathless.

Sure enough, she still underestimated the imperial family of the ancients, and the story of the prince falling in love with a commoner girl broadcast in the TV series is really fake, and the majesty of the royal family cannot be trampled on by anyone at all.

She is an insignificant proprietress no matter how prosperous she is in Anling City, she is disdainful in the eyes of those people, they hold the power of life and death in the world, and have enough arrogant capital, but she has nothing to be proud of except for a beautiful face.

After a long time, she gently spit out a few words, "Master Xie mentions." ”

When did that person leave, Ami didn't know, she only knew that she seemed to have been standing by the Huai River for a long time, until the sky was dark and pedestrians were becoming scarce, she slowly turned around and walked back.

Indeed, people are greedy.

In the past, she worked tirelessly and envied the faces of others like flowers, but now she has a peerless face and has her own family business, but she greedily wants to get the wealth and glory of a lifetime.

She dealt with the princes and grandchildren every day, thinking that the road behind would be a little easier, but in the end she found that she was still just an ant to be slaughtered, and the only one who could help her was herself.

But in such an era, women are always just men's accessories, she is afraid to live back to her previous life, so she wants to pave the way for her future, she doesn't fight for anything, but in the eyes of those people, her identity is so lowly, she is defeated and flees with the pride she has finally accumulated.

Therefore, she can only rely on herself and become stronger, so strong that she can do whatever she wants without relying on the prestige of others.

There were no pedestrians on the road, only she was left walking alone, the wind at night was a little cool, gently brushing the broken hair on her forehead, a little cool.

A smear of darkness swept over the corner of his eyes, and before he could turn his head, there was an additional black man in front of him, and there was a slightly diffuse ...... The smell of blood.

Ami raised her eyes, but before she could see the man's face clearly, her lips were gagged.

A faint cool breath raged between her lips and teeth, she was already very upset in her heart, and she was even more angry when she encountered such a thing, and she raised her hand and was about to push it away, but the person grabbed her wrist and carried it behind her, and a strong arm tightly wrapped around her waist, making her unable to move, and there was no gap between the two figures, so close that she could feel each other's heartbeats.

Suddenly, footsteps approached, paused for a moment, and then drifted away.

The footsteps faded away, and Ami felt the strength on her waist and wrists loosen slightly, and immediately broke free from the man's arms, raised her hand and slapped it.

The man was slapped firmly, Ami didn't feel relieved, rubbed her mouth with her sleeve, and was just about to roar again, but in a blink of an eye, she saw that the person was staggering and would fall down at any time, and reflexively went up to help her, so she finally saw the person's face clearly.

Rui Wang Meng Changli.

Thinking of the words sent by the emperor, she really wanted to leave him here and ignore it, but think about it carefully, according to the current situation, the footsteps just now were clearly aimed at King Rui, and King Rui is now injured, if something happens to him here, then her guilt will be great.

After thinking about it, I am afraid that it will not work to send him back to the Rui Wang's Mansion, in case there is someone guarding there, it is not cost-effective for her to take a small life for the royal people, so she supported him all the way and brought him back to the drunkard house.

But compared to King Rui, she was really too petite, she stumbled all the way to take him to the drunkard's house, and was almost crushed by him.

There were no more guests in the drunkard Curie, Xiaolian saw that Ami didn't come back, and kept the door open waiting for her, and saw the tall man pressed on her body, and was surprised for a while, "Sister Ami, this is ......"

Ami glanced at her, motioned for her to close the door, and helped King Rui to the back room.

She carefully let Rui Wang lie flat on the bed, frowning and thinking about how to wake him up, and then leave......

The door was gently pushed open, Xiaolian walked in, glanced at the person on the bed, and asked Ami with her mouth, "What's wrong with him?" ”

Ami was lazy, not caring about the louder voice at all, "Maybe it's injured, you can watch and bandage him." ”

Xiaolian looked at it, her eyes dodged, and she was a little shy, "But ...... But there is a difference between men and women......"

Ami was impatient, and couldn't understand what these ancients had in their heads.

With a wave of his hand, Xiaolian went to get the medicine and cloth, and with some revenge, he ripped off his shirt, looked at the wound, and his expression eased slightly.

sneered: "It's just a few knife wounds, such a big man, as for it?"

Xiaolian turned her back and glanced at it: "Maybe it's some kind of sweat medicine or something." ”

Wrapping the wound roughly, the pain made the king of Rui frowned, and he was merciless.

When everything was done, it was already late at night, and Ami put her things on the table casually, and lay down on the soft couch in the room.

The sky was getting brighter, his narrow eyes slowly opened, and the momentary fog made him look as clean and clear as the moonlight, feeling the unfamiliar environment around him, his eyes suddenly became sharp and vigilant, and his eyes touched the woman sleeping peacefully on the soft couch not far away, and only then did he become a little calmer.

He stepped off the bed lightly, did not look at her again, and left quietly.

And so, all the entanglement began.

Ami in her sleep would not have thought that her life would become turbulent because of her unintentional move, and the cold and thin King Rui would never have thought that he would rather give up the supreme throne he had been chasing for many years than protect someone......
