"Ling'er, come, let's eat first, and after dinner, I will tell you everything you want to know."

Xiao Wenxuan pulled her to the table, personally served her a bowl of porridge, and stuffed a pair of chopsticks into her hands.

"Ling'er, King Ping was arrested, but King Ping's son is still on the run. The entire state of Qizhou is blocked, and he is unwilling to be arrested, and he will definitely fight for trapped beasts and find a way to get out of the city. So for your safety, you can't go out for the time being. ”

Su Muling nodded mechanically, inexplicably a little resistant to the "husband" beside him.

She picked up the spoon and quickly drank the bowl of porridge on his back, then got up and left, standing at the window.

"You said that I am a merchant girl, you are a noble son of the royal family, how can the emperor agree to you marry me into the door?"

Su Muling was suspicious in her heart, if she was the daughter of a merchant, how could she marry a prince and become a princess?

Looking closely at the man not far away, if the two are husband and wife as he said, and finally rescued her, he should be happy, but why is there no warmth and joy in his eyes, but a faint and unknown light?

Faced with her question, Xiao Wenxuan's eyes finally softened.

"Three years ago, I was chased and killed, and after falling into the water, I was rescued by you, and then we were happy with each other, and we swore that we would not marry each other. Last winter, you went to sea with your father and were attacked by pirates. You fall overboard and are missing. I thought you were dead, and knelt in front of the emperor for three days and three nights to seek the position of princess for you. Ling'er, when the prince of Ping is caught, I will take you back to Beijing. I want to give you a grand wedding and make you the envy of everyone in the Ming Dynasty. ”

Xiao Wenxuan's gaze at her was full of longing, which made Su Muling's doubts dissipate a lot.

Su Muling walked up to him and sat down again, took the tea to moisten his throat, and asked him something he wanted to know.

……

It wasn't until it was almost noon that Su Muling relieved his doubts, and when he looked at him again, his eyes were much less guarded.

In any case, they are in love with each other and have a deep emotional foundation, otherwise he would not have risked going to the emperor to ask for a seal for her.

Although she had forgotten the past, she still had sporadic memories in her mind, and perhaps one day, she would think of him. By then, she would not be as embarrassed as she is now.

"Your body hasn't healed yet, rest well, and send someone to call me if you have something." Xiao Wenxuan stood up considerately.

Su Muling nodded, Xiao Wenxuan smiled softly at her and turned around to go out, the moment he stepped out of the threshold, a gleam appeared in his eyes.

Back in the study, Xiao Wenxuan closed the door and groped around the edge of his ear a few times. Then, with the movement of the hand, a thin sheet of dough was torn off, revealing its true face...... It turned out to be Xiao Wenchen, the son of King Ping, who was wanted in the city of Qizhou Mansion.

The reason why Xiao Wenchen used the trick of pretending to be Xiao Wenxuan was because on the second day he caught Su Muling from the small courtyard where he was hiding, Lord Cao, the prefect of Qizhou, received an eight-hundred-mile rush from the capital.

That night, the prefect of Qizhou mobilized troops to besiege the Pingwang Mansion. As soon as the holy decree was thought, all the people in the Ping Wangfu were taken into custody, except for Xiao Wenchen, who had not had time to come back when he was out of the house, and his entourage.

The copying of King Ping's mansion means that King Ping's rebellion failed, and Xiao Wenchen, who was instantly shattered by the prince's dream, could only find a way to protect himself at this time.

At first, he wanted to kidnap Su Muling and escape from Qizhou, but after leaving Qizhou, he fell into a permanent life of hiding in Tibet and not seeing the light? He didn't want to, he was the emperor's nephew, and he almost became the crown prince, and he was unwilling to flee everywhere like a mouse.

So he decided to take a risk, Xiao Wenxuan ruined his father's good deeds, then he pretended to be Xiao Wenxuan to live in this world.

The mask was secretly prepared by King Ping when Xiao Wenxuan was trapped in King Ping's mansion. He gave Su Muling medicine, which made her lose her memory, and he went to the palace at night to steal the dough. used the well-known story to stage a tanuki for the prince in front of Su Muling, but I didn't expect Su Muling to really believe it.

The success of the small test gave Xiao Wenchen confidence, and he began to secretly arrange the future plan......

For the next few days, Su Muling stayed quietly in the room, fusing the information he got from 'Xiao Wenxuan' into his memory.

She knew the beginning and end of King Ping's rebellion, she knew that she was looking for a husband for thousands of miles, she knew that King Ping wanted to take her hostage, and she also knew that King Ping couldn't get out of this courtyard if he didn't catch her.

After staying in the room for a long time, Su Muling was a little bored. She looked at the lifeless house, took out a pair of scissors and walked out of the yard, she went to the small garden next to the study to pick some flowers to decorate the house.

This courtyard is a small house with three entrances. There was only one janitor in the front yard, an old and dumb old man. In the backyard lived Su Muling and a girl who spoke little. Further back is a small garden, next to which is Xiao Wenxuan's study.

Su Muling found a basket to hang on her arm, and walked to the garden in the warm June sun.

The garden was full of flowers, and Su Muling picked her favorite hibiscus and lilies.

When passing by the study, Su Muling stopped her steps, looked at the flowers in the basket, walked over, and gently opened the door.

In the study, Xiao Wenchen was looking at something in front of the bookshelf with his back to the door, and when he heard the door, he instinctively held the hilt of the sword at his waist, and turned his head to shoot the cold gaze on her face, vigilant.

Xiao Wenchen has a height profile similar to Xiao Wenxuan, but his eyebrows and eyes are not as soft as Xiao Wenxuan, revealing shrewdness and sharpness.

Su Muling's appearance surprised him, and he was stunned and didn't move for a long time.

Su Muling didn't know that there was someone in the house, or a stranger, she lowered her head and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't know there were guests here." "I'm leaving.

Seeing that she didn't recognize herself, Xiao Wenchen's heart slowly let go. He deliberately lowered his voice and replied politely: "It's my brother and sister, right?" I'm a friend of You'an. He's going to be back a little late, so I'll be waiting for him here. ”

"Excuse yourself."

Su Muling stopped talking and withdrew directly.

Xiao Wenchen behind him took a deep breath. In the end, it was a weak heart, knowing that Su Muling had no memory and couldn't remember who he was, but let her see her true face, Xiao Wenchen was still scared.

Back in the room, the fragmentary memories in Su Muling's mind came out again, and Xiao Wenchen's face just now was turned over again in her memory, gradually, more and more clearly.

She had him in her memory, which meant that she had seen him, but his reaction just now was as if she had seen her for the first time, which was very strange.

Su Muling felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't tell what was wrong. She struggled to reminisce about the past, trying to find the answers she wanted from those scattered fragments, but the headache prevented her from doing so.

At dinner, 'Xiao Wenxuan', who had not been seen for a few days, appeared. Sitting opposite Su Muling, he chatted with her without a word while eating: "I heard that you went to the study to find me?" ”

Su Muling nodded and said lightly: "I went to the garden to pick some flowers, and I want to send you some, but unfortunately you are not here." ”

"I'm out there looking for the whereabouts of King Ping's son." Xiao Wenchen said lightly.

"When are we going back?"

Su Muling put a piece of lamb chop meat into his bowl. Although he looked like a stranger in Su Muling's heart, after all, they were husband and wife, and she still had to do it if they respected each other.

"It's coming."

'Xiao Wenxuan' was very surprised by her initiative, but he still kept a chopstick dish in her bowl for her: it was a piece of fish.

There was a touch of tenderness in Su Muling's eyes, and in her blank brain, she finally felt at home.

She picked up the fish meat that 'Xiao Wenxuan' gave her and sent it to her mouth. But when it came to her mouth, the fishy smell of the fish made her have to put down her chopsticks.

"I'm full."

Su Muling poured himself a cup of tea and accompanied him.

'Xiao Wenxuan' had something in his heart, and when he saw Su Muling put down his chopsticks, he also stopped.

"I still have something to go out for, you can rest early. And also...... It's not safer here than in the capital, and there will be foreign men in and out of my study. You'd better stay in your yard and don't wander around. ”

'Xiao Wenxuan' had a smile on his face, and his tone was as gentle as possible. But in Su Muling's ears, it was cold and ruthless.

Su Muling nodded silently: "I know." ”

The ice that had just melted between the two of them instantly froze again.

At night, Su Muling tossed and turned, the futon on the bed was twisted and deformed by her, and her hand that had nowhere to put touched something the size of a fist under the mattress.

Su Muling touched it and pinched it in his hand, it was a purse.

She opened her purse by the moonlight outside, and a beam of fluorescence oozed out. In this dark night, it is particularly dazzling, and there is a night pearl the size of a lychee in the purse.

She poured out all the contents of her purse, and in addition to the night pearl and silver tickets of various sizes, there was also a pill sealed with wax.

Su Muling took the purse and looked through it carefully, whose is this? They lived in the capital before, and this house was rented according to Xiao Wenxuan, could it be left by the previous owner?

Su Muling then denied this speculation, such a big night pearl can be said to be rare in the world, whose heart is so big to throw it here? Besides, this yard is so small, and the people who can live here should not be too rich.

Is it her own? With this thought, she began to recall that she had indeed not had a purse on her in the past few days, only a sachet.

It stands to reason that Su Muling's mother's family is a wealthy businessman, and she will always carry a silver ticket with her husband for thousands of miles, right? The woman's valuables were used to being in her purse, and she did not have a purse on her, but found it in the bed where she had lived for a few days.

Su Muling was sure that this purse must have been hidden by herself, but why? Su Muling almost pulled her hair off, but she still couldn't think of a reason.

Look at the pill again, the size of a thumb, well-made, unlike what is sold in ordinary pharmacies.

Su Muling pinched the pill on his fingertips, and gently "snapped" the sealing wax to crack, revealing a black-brown lump inside.

Su Muling put it on the tip of her nose and sniffed it, it was refreshing and refreshing, which made people feel refreshed.

If this purse was hers, then this medicine must have been prepared by her.

So she knew in advance that the medicine would work? That's why it's hidden for fear of being discovered?

Su Muling closed his eyes, and a familiar voice suddenly sounded in his head: "Take it......"

Su Muling's whole body shook and opened his eyes. She raised her hand and put the pill in her mouth......
