Chapter Ninety-One: Doubtful Depth
"It's really frustrating to talk about these things from your mouths, so it's better to see for yourself." Yu Ran flipped through the book in his hand again, then raised his head and responded very reasonably.
"Oh, yes." Changsun Hong nodded in agreement.
Yu Ran suddenly turned around the moment before stepping out of the book pavilion, smiled at Changsun Hong, and said, "You can come to this book pavilion more often if you have nothing to do, so that I don't always have to hear about your deeds from other people in the mansion." After finishing speaking, Yuran didn't wait for the eldest grandson Hong's reaction, and walked outside.
Changsun Hong was left in place, but he didn't catch up, he stared at Yuran's back, and only then did he paced in place when Yuran walked out of the library and disappeared from his sight.
Since the eldest grandson Hong rescued Yuran, he actually likes to chat with Yuran on weekdays, even if sometimes he is always panicked by Yuran's thoughts, but at least he hasn't heard such true words from others for a long time.
Eldest Sun Hong also felt that Yuran's temperament was very special, and it was by no means something that others could easily learn. She can say something that shocks you lightly, she can tell things that surprise and frighten you in a serious way, and sometimes she can even talk and laugh about what happened to her, as if she was not the one who was seriously injured and almost lost her life.
Changsun Hong is really curious, which country was such a woman from before, an ordinary girl from which family, or a small jasper from a rich family, or a daughter of a famous family of your family? In the end, what kind of environment must we be in to create such a person.
Therefore, he will be closer to Yuran than other ordinary women and daughters with a cunning and noble temperament. To be honest, he felt that Yuran was very different from other women, as if he was born with a softness and calmness that made people want to get closer.
"Girl, it's dark, the candle flame is dazzling, do you want to go and rest for a while, otherwise this body will be unbearable." Lu Tong walked to Yu Ran's side and reminded him.
Yuran sat at the table, she turned her head sideways and looked at the half-open window, the sky outside was already dark, and the lights in the house were also extinguished in a few places. She looked back like Lu Tong, and said with a gentle smile: "Okay, it just so happens that I will go out with your family tomorrow, so let's rest early." β
"The girl wants to leave the house with His Royal Highness?" Lu Tong tilted her head, her eyes were shining, but a little surprise appeared on her face, and she said, "Is the girl's body almost better?" Walking for too long, the wound still doesn't go wrong? β
Yu Ran looked at Lu Tong funny, "The wound has long since scabbed, I've been lying for almost half a month, if it weren't for the rare chance to go to your lady's place, I'd be moldy." β
"If the girl is tired, come back early." Lu Tong thought about it for a moment and carefully reminded Yu Ran Dao.
Yu Ran nodded at first, and then she seemed to think of something, put down the book in her hand gently, looked at Lu Tong and said, "Lu Tong, do you think your son-in-law is a gentleman?" β
"His Royal Highness the Prince really likes to play around, and even the prince can't control it, and sometimes he always thinks about the prince because of this." Lu Tong frowned and said with some distress.
Hearing this, Yuran smiled slightly, "It sounds like a bit of a headache." β
"So Lu Tong didn't expect the girl to go out with His Royal Highness the Prince tomorrow, His Royal Highness has always been a maverick, rarely takes people to travel together, and even my young lady has never gone out with the Prince. The prince has always hoped that the prince can take things seriously and go to the court and the opposition to study, but the prince doesn't seem to be interested in these things, and in the end it is gone, and the prince is allowed to make trouble everywhere. Lu Tong explained.
"Noisy?" Yu Ran hesitated slightly, and then responded: "It's quite like his style." β
That night, Tamarin slept fairly well.
So early the next morning, what Changsun Hong saw was Yuran standing in the courtyard in an ink-colored dress, which was almost taken care of.
Changsun Hong walked over, looked her up and down, then touched her chin with his hand, and said, "Your dress is not as good as yesterday's." β
Yuran raised his eyebrows and said in a tone of voice, "The red one?" β
"yes, it's red. Don't wear some lifeless clothes, go and change it, how good it was yesterday, we are going to go out to play, naturally we want to dress better. Changsun Hong said as he urged Yuran to change his clothes. He himself was still dressed in a dark purple brocade robe, with only slight differences in style, and he looked quite flamboyant, but it was in line with his temperament.
Yuran was full of helplessness, but she still didn't refuse, and put on the red and gold dress of yesterday and walked out. She turned around in front of Changsun Hong and asked, "Is this satisfying?" β
"That's great." Changsun Hong clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Catch Ming'er and ask someone to make you a few more sets of this color, which is more suitable for you." β
Yu Ran smiled faintly, raised his eyebrows lightly, and said, "I don't care." β
"It's just what's going on with your hair, it looks...... It seems to be a bit messy. As if he had suddenly discovered something, Changsun Hong looked at the jade-dyed hair with some disgust, and raised his finger.
Yuran touched her sideburns with her left hand, and then suddenly sighed, and simply took the hairpin that was inserted between her hair to pull her hair, and her black hair was softly scattered behind her head, she stroked it casually, her eyebrows slanted, and said to Changsun Hong: "That's fine, right?" β
Changsun Hong touched his chin with his right hand, walked on the side of the jade dye and was silent for a long time, and finally couldn't help it, he asked cautiously, "Nanyu, you...... You can't forget how to comb your hair, right? β
Yu Ran was stunned for a moment by his question, and then calmed down and did not respond.
"Ah...... Am I saying something wrong again? Changsun Hong coughed lightly and muttered to himself in a low voice.
Yu Ran pursed her lips, raised her eyebrows and looked back at him and said, "I just really can't remember." She said it rightly.
After hearing this, Changsun Hong gave Yuran a very bright smile, his eyes were crooked with a smile, and he quipped: "Yes, yes, I just don't remember, I will always remember it later." β
Yu Ran's right hand holding the handle of the folding fan was clenched tightly, and she raised her hand and knocked the tip of the folding fan on the left shoulder of Changsun Hong, and the brilliance flashed in a pair of phoenix eyes, which was rare and sharp.
Changsun Hong was stared at by Yuran and was uncomfortable, and in the end he still didn't beat her, so he ran out of the mansion first, and finally didn't forget to turn around and stretched out a hand towards Yuran, "Come." β
Yuran walked towards him, she glanced at the hand that Changsun Hong stretched out towards her, but she didn't shake it, just gently slapped Changsun Hong's palm with a folding fan, and then walked past him with a smile.
"Hey, Nanyu, you go slowly, I didn't mean to." The eldest grandson Hong knew that Yuran was really angry with him, so he shouted loudly behind Yuran's back. But he saw that Yuran had no intention of turning back, and finally had to smile bitterly and chase after him quickly.
There were quite a lot of people on the street, Yuran and Changsun Hong got a little closer, and she asked him sideways: "You said you made an appointment, who is it?" β
"Oh, it's the second son of Shangshu Mansion, called Xie Yiyuan. We've known each other since we were kids, so let's get on a better relationship. The eldest grandson Hong crossed his arms around his chest and replied casually.
"It's not easy to know each other since I was a child." Tamarin nodded.
Eldest Sun Hong's eyes suddenly flashed a little sigh, he narrowed his eyes, and said in a quiet tone: "Actually, when we were children, we always played together with three people, so it wasn't as boring as it is now. β
"Three?" Yu Ran asked rhetorically, "Then who is the other person?" β
"He'sβhe's dead." Eldest Sun Hong paused, then looked at Yu Ran with a smile on the corner of his lips. He saw Yuran looking at him deeply, so he shrugged his shoulders again, looked up at the sky, his face swept away the previous frivolous and casual color, and he said lightly: "Yes, he died five years ago." β
"Five years ago, ah......" Yuran also knew that she might have happened to bump into the pain in Changsun Hong's heart, but she still pretended not to care and asked, "Then what's his name?" β
The eldest grandson Hong was silent for a while, and after a while, his gaze moved to Yu Ran, his throat moved slightly, and he finally opened his mouth, and he said: "-His name is Qin Xi, and he is the eldest son of the prince of Anguo. β
In the Xiangwang Mansion, Xue Yan, who had been following Changsun Yi's side on weekdays, walked quickly into Changsun Yi's courtyard.
Along the way, the servant girls who saw Xue Yan had to call him "General Xue".
Xue Yan knocked on the door, and only walked in after getting an answer, he walked to Changsun Yi's table and stopped, and then bowed his head respectfully and said, "Lord Wang." β
"You're here, how's it going?" Changsun Yi nodded.
Xue Yan raised his head and reported: "Lord Wang, the person still hasn't woken up, it is estimated that if he wakes up, the chance is too slim." β
"Are you really sure that it was Helian Yu himself who killed almost all of the people who raided in the military camp in Ningning?" Changsun Yi frowned suddenly, he still had some things he couldn't think clearly.
Xue Yan hesitated for a moment and said, "This is what the only person who escaped said before he was seriously injured and fell unconscious, it shouldn't be wrong." It's just that he can't wake up now, and we can't know what happened that day. Judging from the wounds on his body, it seemed that every sword was headed towards the fatal place, and his body was the best among the few people they went, so he could avoid it, otherwise I am afraid that even one of them might have escaped alive. β
"If the person he said against him was not Helian Yu, then I would not have doubted it. However, as far as I know, Helian Yu's swordsmanship should not be so superb, and she has always been protected by her retinue. If we hadn't noticed that Helian Yu's swordsmanship was really so fierce before, then it would really be a mistake on our part. Changsun Yi said in a deep voice.
