Chapter Ninety-Five: I Belong to a Cat and Have Nine Lives
Bai Qianfan was woken up by hunger, his eyes were half open, he looked at the room a little strange, and couldn't help but look dazed, and he was sitting next to him with a smile: "The princess is awake?" ”
Only then did Bai Qianfan recognize that this was Murong Mian's house, she blinked her eyes and asked, "Where is the prince?" ”
Murong Mian was outside, and when he heard that she was looking for him as soon as she woke up, her heart throbbed strangely, just like a dog that had just been fed had become dependent on him, and she looked for him when she opened her eyes, so that he could have a kind of satisfaction of being needed.
I got up and wanted to go in, but I felt that I should be more reserved and stand still. Hearing Crimson say, "Is the princess looking for the master, the master is outside." ”
Bai Qianfan said: "The prince carried me back, I'm afraid that he is tired, I want to ask him if he is okay?" ”
Crimson smiled and said, "The princess is as light as a swallow, and the weight of a cherry blossom gun is not as good as a cherry gun in the master's hand, how can she be tired, the princess is waiting, and the slave maid will invite the master in." ”
"No, I'm not looking for him," Bai Qianfan said, "I'll just ask, it's good that I'm not tired." ”
Murong Mian moved his steps, planning to find a time to go in, hearing her say this, he didn't move again, through the bead curtain, there was a small figure faintly on the bed, he still remembered the small lump in his arms, and the butterfly bones behind him were a little sharpened. I pinched it in my heart, as if I was distressed, how could such a little girl not make people feel distressed.
After standing for a while, she heard the sound of a rope inside, presumably Crimson was waiting for her to dress, and soon, the figure in the beaded curtain swayed, and she sat in front of the dressing table, with her long black hair draped behind her, waiting for Crimson to comb her hair.
Murong Mian put his hands behind his back, his index finger knocked on it as if he was beating a beat, suddenly stopped, walked over and picked up the curtain.
The bead curtain jingled, and the two of them looked back, Bai Qianfan smiled with crooked eyebrows, "Lord Wang." ”
Murong Mian walked over and naturally took the comb in Crimson's hand, "The princess must be hungry, you go and prepare food." ”
Crimson replied, smiled softly, and turned to go out.
Murong Mian didn't dare to look at Bai Qianfan's dark eyes, only looked at the unclear bronze mirror, "Did you sleep well?" ”
"Well, it's strange to say, I always sleep well in the prince's bed."
"What does the princess mean, do you want to ask this king to give you this bed?"
"A gentleman doesn't take away people's favors, and I can't take away such a big bed."
"In that case, let's come over and sleep from time to time." Murong Mian opened his mouth, and after speaking, he was stunned for a moment, and smiled to hide, "What this king means is that when the princess is not sleeping well, this king can borrow the bed to sleep with the princess." ”
Bai Qianfan looked at the man standing in the mirror, "Lord Wang, you are so good to me, be careful that I have to make inches." ”
Murong Mian knew: "Oh, the princess will still have to inch in, what kind of inch in method, this king will wait and see." ”
While laughing, Murong Mian's hands didn't stop, and soon, two round little tugs were on Bai Qianfan's head, lined with her crooked eyes with a smile, very cute. Murong Mian clenched his fists, resisting his urge to pinch her.
Murong Mian didn't have dinner, first, he wasn't too hungry, and secondly, he wanted to eat with her, which was strange to say, every time he ate with her, his appetite was always very good, and he ate more than usual, as if he was affected by her unconsciously. Even the speed of eating has increased.
Dinner was placed in the side hall, and the heat of the food was simmering in the candlelight, which made Murong Mian inexplicably have a warm feeling, and he sat at the table with his princess for dinner, one chewing slowly, the other windswept clouds, occasionally looking at each other, smiling, and then eating their own. Murong Mian felt that in fact, this was quite good, having someone to eat with was much better than the scene where she was alone and lonely, even if she didn't speak, it was good for her to make some noise on the side.
After eating, the table was removed, and the tea cup was put on the table, Murong Mian retreated left and right, looking a little serious, "Princess, now there are only the two of us left in the house, if you believe me, tell me what happened, although the dead Qingmei came from Bai Xiangfu, the deed of sale is not in my hands, it is not my person, but I died in my house, I can't ignore this matter." ”
Bai Qianfan had some scruples before, but now he felt that Murong Mian should be reliable, so he told him his guess.
Murong Mian never expected that things were just the opposite of what he guessed, it was not that Bai Qianfan wanted to kill the people around him, but that Madame Bai wanted to kill Bai Qianfan. All his speculations are just because of the preconceived impression imposed on him, and he has always believed that Bai Qianfan has a problem, no matter how she pretends to be, she is a problem. Jia Tongningjiu didn't believe it, Crimson Green Lotus didn't believe it, he insisted on it, and now it turns out that he was wrong!
A powerful mother-in-law wants to kill a lonely concubine, why? What did Bai Qianfan hinder her from the bottom, to let her kill the killer like this?
"Madame Bai wants your life?"
Bai Qianfan shook his head, "I don't know, I probably think I'm an idle eater, and I want to raise one less person." ”
Murong Mian snorted: "The dignified mansion can't even afford to raise a concubine?" This is also what Prime Minister Bai means? ”
"That's not true, my father is still good to me, I know what my wife did a few times, and I taught her a hard lesson."
"I'm afraid I'm doing it for you, right?"
"My father is in a high position and has a lot of opportunities, and he can't manage a lot of family affairs, but as long as he knows, he will definitely interfere."
Murong Mian looked at her, "So your father asks you to do anything, and you are willing to listen?" ”
"No, at least I won't do anything that hurts nature and reason, my nurse said, people live in the world, no matter how bad they are, they must be upright and upright, and they don't have the heart to harm others."
"It doesn't matter if someone else comes to harm you?"
"Of course not, I can still tell the difference between bad guys and good guys." Bai Qianfan smiled at him, "The prince is a good person." ”
She held the teacup, half-tilted her head, and looked at him with a smile, a little improper, but her expression was clearly serious.
Murong Mian lowered his eyes, remembering what she said in the alley, he wanted to ask, but he didn't know why, and suddenly he was full of curiosity about her past, "You, what bad things have happened to you when you were young?" ”
Bai Qianfan almost didn't have to think about it, "There are too many, open guns and hidden swords, there are too many to count, sometimes I feel that it is a miracle that I can survive until now." The nurse said that I was a cat and had nine lives. ”
"The worst thing?"
"When I was about eight years old, I was sunk in a well."
Murong Mian's heart was suffocated, and he even stopped breathing, "Sinking the well? Who did this to you? ”
Bai Qianfan saw that his face suddenly changed, and a murderous aura burst out from between his eyebrows, and his body trembled with fright, "Lord, you ......"
Murong Mian sensed his gaffe, tried to calm down, swallowed, reached over, and held her hand in the palm of his hand, "You tell me, tell me all the bad things." ”
Bai Qianfan was a little overwhelmed by his inexplicable appearance, and snorted, "It's all over, there's nothing to say." ”
He squeezed her hand a little tighter, "Tell me, I need to know." ”
