CHAPTER XXI
Alain and Orange sat opposite each other in large wooden barrels, and the whole room was foggy. Alain submerged most of his head under the water, revealing only a pair of large eyes, staring at the petals on the surface of the water in a daze.
Tangerine dried the towel and put it on the side of the barrel, looking at Alain a little distressed. I want to say something, but I don't know how to say it. After all, knowing his life experience for a while, and being told that he wanted to be one of the objects of marriage, it must be difficult to accept.
"Sister Tangerine." Alain sat up, his little face full of seriousness.
"What's wrong?" Tangerine looked at Alan with a serious expression, and suddenly became a little nervous, "Is it uncomfortable there?" Does your stomach hurt again? ”
"Master, he lied to me." Alain's tone was full of certainty.
"Master?" Tangerine thought carefully and asked, "Do you mean your identity or the reason for Concubine Lan's death?" ”
"No, these masters won't lie to me. Because this is very easy to check, and about my mother and master, on the first day I entered the palace, I went to the Lan Palace with my father and saw the portrait, and the woman on the painting was indeed the same person as the figure on the desk in the master's bedroom. Alain said, "I mean, Master said, 'Originally, I just wanted to protect me from growing up.'" ”
"That's ......," Tangerine frowned, "what's wrong?" ”
"I met you and Mother Liu three years ago." Alan said, "Three years ago, because of the marriage between the county lord of Songhe and Xu State, the relationship between Nanyi and Xu Guo was very good, and they also opened trade routes with each other. It's also very peaceful. It stands to reason that no one would have imagined that three years later, Xu Guoguo would be in a weak position, and there would even be a marriage, and it would be so bad that I, the motherless daughter who was raised in the temple, would be on my head. ”
Alan looked at the orange with a puzzled look on his face and explained, "Can't you think that Master specially helped me cultivate you so that you can become my person?" Otherwise, it is impossible to give the title deed, to the garden, to be so generous to help a child bring back. ”
Tangerine was startled and said, "You mean, the master deliberately wanted to keep me with you?" ”
"However, how do you think Master can know that I, who was originally going to grow up peacefully, will need to hire people after three years?"
"Master ......"
"Master may have been planning to avenge General Song's family from the moment my mother died." Alain took the orange's words and whispered, "Everything was planned, including me. ”
"Alain......" Tangerine didn't know if he should comfort him for a while, paused, stretched out his hand to darken Alain's thin shoulder, and said with a sincere face: "Miss, if you are willing to take revenge, Tangerine will help you wholeheartedly." If you don't want to, the orange will be on your side. ”
Alain looked at the orange's determined eyes, and his eyes suddenly blurred. "Tangerine...... Sister Tangerine!! Alain finally couldn't hold back, threw himself into the orange's arms, and the small choked voice slowly became louder, as if he wanted to cry out all the grievances in his heart.
Peaches, who was guarding in front of the house, quietly retreated when she heard the cry, and quickly found an excuse to send a few people on duty in the yard to the front yard.
When Alain woke up again, it was the second day, and Orange slept on the small bed at the foot of Alain's bed.
The genius was bright, Alain didn't wake up the orange, he quietly opened the door with his clothes on, wanting to go out to breathe. As soon as I opened the door, I woke up Peaches, who were napping by the door.
"Miss." Momoko saluted Alain.
"Why are you guarding it?" Alain gently closed the door and asked in a low voice.
"Yesterday, Momoko listened to Miss Miss's bad mood, thinking that Miss shouldn't want to be heard. So I sent them to the front yard privately. Peach suddenly remembered something, and said, "Miss don't worry, the princess's mansion is protected by strong martial arts guards, and although Peaches is mediocre in martial arts, she will definitely be blocked by Miss if there is danger." ”
Alan just wanted to say that even if the maids guarded them, they wouldn't know martial arts, but suddenly remembered that the courtyard here was full of people from Master Songhe, and they didn't know what kind of stunts they had, so he shut up.
