Chapter 10: The Prince
Situ Youning was lying on the bed with a sore body, she agreed to today's one-day training on the condition of seeing the man, the training content ranged from walking posture to playing the piano and dancing, anyway, it was something that Situ Youning should have as a woman but did not have, for Situ Youning, these were much harder than following his eldest brother Situ Chenfeng to train in the military camp for a day.
"No way!" Situ Youning suddenly cheered up and stood up from the bed and took off his cumbersome shirt, "The more times like this, the more you can't be discouraged." ”
Just then the door opened, and the man was escorted in by two strong men, one of whom said in a fierce voice, "You only have a quarter of an hour. As he spoke, he closed the door and became a door god.
"Are you alright?" The two of them asked this sentence almost at the same time.
Situ Youning changed the topic a little embarrassed, and began to smile and carefully observe the man's cheek.
"What are you doing?" The man's face turned away slightly.
"Yesterday the light was too dim, I didn't observe it properly, so you look so good."
For Situ Youning's sudden compliment, the man was a little overwhelmed.
"Damn!" Situ Youning suddenly raised his voice, walked up to the man and took his scarred hand, "What did they do to you?" ”
"It's not a big deal." Today, the man chopped firewood in the backyard for a day, and now most of the palms of his hands are worn out of the skin, and the blood from the wound has coagulated into a red scar, he gently broke free of the hand held by Situ Youning, put his hand behind his back, and turned his gaze to Situ Youning's body, "Why are you dressed like this?" Do you know what this place is? ”
"Qinglou." Situ Youning replied calmly.
The man looked at Situ Youning with some surprise, his expression was a little disdainful, "It turns out that you know, you have been attracted by this luxurious life so quickly, I really misjudged you." With that, he turned and walked towards the door.
"Stop!" Situ Youning hurriedly stopped the man and cautiously glanced at the two figures printed on the door, "What are you angry about?" I'm not all for you," Situ Youning pouted and explained unconvinced, "I knew that they didn't keep their word and tortured you like this, so I wouldn't have listened to them obediently." ”
The man stood in place and looked at Situ Youning with some surprise, without saying a word, Situ Youning didn't have much time to pay attention to the man's expression, she took the man's hand and walked to the table, raised her head and looked at him with a serious face.
"Listen to me, tomorrow they will hold a dance competition, many dignitaries will come to participate, although they promised, as long as I am obedient tomorrow, they will let you go, now it seems impossible, the nursing homes here seem to be very powerful..." Situ Youning listened here, lowered her head and rubbed her sore neck, in order not to raise her head again, she simply stood on the stool.
"The martial arts of the nursing homes here are very unusual." As soon as Situ Youning stood on the stool, what he wanted to say was snatched away by the man, "So with your martial arts, you can't get out of here." This time the man looked up at Situ Youning.
"You talk nonsense! With my martial arts, I can easily get out of here, I... The reason why I didn't leave is not because of you. Situ Youning's cheeks were slightly red and he glared at the man angrily.
After the two looked at each other for a long time, the man reluctantly looked away, "Okay, it's a widow..." My fault has bothered you, please take me out with you. As he spoke, he sat down on a stool and drank a glass.
Situ Youning jumped down from the stool with satisfaction, sat opposite the man, lay on the table with his hands, and said solemnly, "So tomorrow..."
"Lord Wang, you're finally back."
The woman's soft voice broke the rare tranquility of the luxurious courtyard in the middle of the night, and a woman wearing a red wrapping skirt and holding a purple cloak walked quickly towards the man who appeared at the gate and draped it over his body.
"It's so late, why don't you rest." Feng Yumo looked down at the woman beside him, his indifferent eyes were rubbed a lot, and he hadn't seen him for a day, and under the dim light, the beauty in front of him looked a lot haggard.
"Yan'er wants to wait for the prince to come back in person." Ni Yan lowered his head a little embarrassed.
A trace of pity flashed in Feng Yumo's eyes, but he quickly disappeared without a trace, he gently touched Ni Yan's head, "It's late at night, go back to the room early to rest, this king still has important things to do, and I can't accompany you tonight." He said and walked towards the hall.
Ni Yan's eyes moistened instantly, how many times did she watch the back of the person she loved leave her, but she couldn't do anything about it, even if she touched it lightly just now, she would feel very relieved, but the tears still couldn't help but flow down, four years later, he still couldn't forget her.
"Princess, let's go back to the room." The personal maid who had been standing by her side helped her to the inner courtyard with some distress.
"Is the message sure to be reliable?"
"It's what my subordinates saw with their own eyes." The masked man standing in front of Feng Yumo said firmly.
Feng Yumo's originally cold expression became serious, "Where is he now?" ”
"This subordinate is not very clear, only that he fled into the mountains of the West Mountain."
"Nishiyama?" Feng Yumo frowned thoughtfully.
After explaining all the plans, Situ Youning seemed relieved, and drank a large cup of tea in one go, "Tomorrow you must act according to the plan, and you must not be sloppy in the slightest." ”
The man nodded slightly.
"By the way, my name is Situ Youning, you can call me Youning directly, you haven't told me your name yet?"
"Ghosts?" The man frowned in confusion.
"Any questions?" Situ Youning seemed to understand why the man had such an expression now, and turned his face away with displeasure.
"My name is Liu... Niu Er. ”
"What?" Situ Youning walked towards the man, "Do you stutter?" Why do you always pause when you speak? ”
"Nope." The man avoided Situ Youning's gaze.
"Don't feel inferior, no matter what kind of disease, my sister-in-law can be cured, and I will beg her to treat you if I have the chance." As she spoke, she patted the man's shoulder, "But between her and her eldest brother..."
"I didn't." The man explained calmly.
"You said your name was Niu..."
The man cleared his throat uncomfortably, "Niu Er," and his voice was a little slurred.
"Niu Er, Niu Er..." Situ Youning lowered his head and repeated this sentence thoughtfully, which made the man even more uncomfortable, "I really want to hear this name somewhere..."
Before Situ Youning could come up with an answer, the two big men pushed open the door and took Niu Er away.
