"Ah Xiyan? Ah-Xi Yan......"

Chu Junmo silently recited A Xiyan's name in his heart, and quickly recalled it in his mind, but he was also a little distracted for a while, so much so that he forgot to answer.

"Engong, if it's inconvenient to tell your name, forget it, it's okay. Just remember my name, and if there is a place where a little girl can help in the future, just ask. So that I may repay you for saving your life twice. By the way, after you saved me before, you entered the Jin Palace, and you can enter the palace casually, are you a friend of the prince? ”

Ah Xiyan saw that the Engong in her mind suddenly looked different, and when she didn't answer her for a long time, she thought that it was inconvenient for Engong to reveal her identity, so she said understandingly.

Ah Xiyan felt that it was understandable for her, after all, the Engong in front of her had entered the palace with her own eyes after saving her before, and she thought that it should have something to do with the palace.

Then the identity of Engong must also be the son of a big family, and even the son of a high-ranking official and noble family is also possible.

It is also reasonable for such a person to be unwilling to casually tell strangers his identity, so A Xiyan, who has always known how to respect the privacy of others, did not intend to be reluctant to be gracious on this issue.

But Ah Xiyan also understands that if she can meet this friend who has a relationship with the palace, it will be very beneficial for her to inquire about her life experience in the future, so Ah Xiyan still hopes that she can be fortunate to be friends with Engong.

It's just that if the other party feels that the difference in identity is too big and is unwilling to be friends with him, she will not be reluctant.

"Oh, I'm sorry, after hearing your name just now, I always feel familiar, so I'm a little distracted. Don't be gracious. My surname is Mo, and my name is Jun Chu. As for saving you, it's just a gesture, Miss Ah doesn't have to take it to heart, let alone repay it. As for the fact that I can enter and leave the palace at will, it is not because I am a friend of the prince. It's just because I'm a royal guard in the palace. ”

After Chu Junmo listened to Ah Xiyan's empathetic words, he also suddenly came back to his senses, and hurriedly explained apologetically.

Because Chu Junmo didn't want Ah Xiyan to know his identity as the prince, he simply reversed his name and became Mo Gongzi.

and lied that he was the royal guard of the palace, after all, Ah Xiyan had seen him enter the palace, and if he had to say that he had nothing to do with the palace, it would cause Ah Xiyan to be suspicious.

But he didn't want to say that his identity was too noble, lest Ah Xiyan deliberately alienate himself because of the big difference in their identities.

Chu Junmo just wanted to be a friend with A Xiyan as an ordinary royal guard, so it would be much more convenient for him to find out the origin of the totem from A Xiyan.

"It turned out to be Mo Gongzi, okay, I wrote it down. I didn't expect you

is still the royal guard of the palace, no wonder he is extraordinary. If I hadn't met you today, I would have died under the horse's hooves. Although saving me is a trivial matter for you, it is a matter of course to repay kindness, and Mo Gongzi does not need to shirk. Have you ever heard my name before? Can you remember where you heard my name? ”

After hearing Engong say his name, Ah Xiyan also remembered it in her heart, and insisted in a tone that she had to repay her kindness.

And Chu Junmo's words revealed that he had heard her name, which also made A Xiyan extremely surprised and surprised, and after holding back the excitement in her heart, she pretended to be very calm and asked casually.

After all, Ah Xiyan came all the way to the imperial city to find out her life experience, so she would care about any news that might find out her life experience.

She felt that since the Mo Gongzi in front of her had heard her name, it was very likely that he knew her biological parents, so she naturally had to seize the opportunity to ask for clarification.

It's just that Ah Xiyan doesn't want to casually expose that she came to the imperial city to find her biological parents, and she doesn't want to easily tell strangers that she is a child abandoned by her biological parents seventeen years ago.

She still wants to secretly find out who her biological parents are, only in this way that her parents will not be alarmed, and it will be convenient for her to contact her parents as a stranger first, and understand why her parents abandoned her back then.

And whether they abandoned her, or if there was something else going on.

If her parents really abandoned her because they disliked her as a natural poisonous child, and now they have long forgotten about her and don't care about her life or death, then there is no need to recognize her.

She would leave the Imperial City and leave the country, never bothering them again.

But if her parents didn't know that she had been sent to the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons, and they were still looking for her for so many years, and they cared about her very much, then she would first silently guard them as strangers, until one day she could cure her natural poison and not hurt her parents because of the poison in her body, and then recognize them.

Although Ah Xiyan tried her best to hide her excitement and pretended to ask very casually, Chu Junmo, who has always been sharp-minded and good at observing words and feelings, was still keenly aware that Ah Xiyan actually cared a lot about where she heard her name.

Combined with Chu Junmo, it is certain that Ah Xiyan is from the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons, and so far in the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons, no one seems to have witnessed anyone living in it come out, and it is not even known if there is anyone inside.

And even if there are people inside, if it is not a particularly important matter, they should not leave the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons easily, so Chu Junmo has reason to speculate that it is very likely that Ah Xiyan left the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons to find out his background.

Otherwise, she didn't have to care so much about where Chu Junmo had heard her name.

Since this is the case, Chu Junmo had an idea, and planned to use this topic that Ah Xiyan was most interested in to keep her, so as not to say goodbye, and it would be a pity if she lost contact in the future.

After all, the clues to the origin of the totem that he had been searching for for more than ten years were likely to be obtained from A Xiyan, and once he found the origin of the totem, he would be able to find the ancient and mysterious family.

With the help of an ancient mysterious family, curing his poison should be just around the corner.

After a quick analysis in Chu Junmo's heart, he said frankly: "Miss A, to be honest, I really can't remember where I've heard your name for a while, after all, I have inevitably met many friends in the palace for so many years, maybe I heard it wrong, and it is possible that I have misremembered." But it is not impossible to rule out that it is really a friend who mentioned your name, or even inquired about this name, or heard someone say it at a friend's house. So I can't really answer you right now. However, if Miss A is not in a hurry to leave the Imperial City, she will stay in the Imperial City for a few more days, and let me go back and think about it, and maybe I will be able to remember it soon. And then I'm afraid this inn is not suitable for you. And you, a single woman, will inevitably encounter similar troubles no matter which inn you live in. So if you don't mind, you can go to my humble house near here for a while. Anyway, I live in the palace now, and the humble house is also empty, not only to solve your shelter, but also to help me take care of the house, wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone. Since you have always insisted on wanting to repay the favor, why don't you repay it by helping me take care of the humble house? Once you've found a safe and suitable place to live, you can move out at any time. I wonder what you think? It's late at night, and you must be tired, so why don't I take you to my humble house now? ”

Chu Junmo's words not only used the topics that Ah Xiyan was interested in to keep her, but also lent Ah Xiyan a secluded small mansion in the inner courtyard of the palace to Ah Xiyan to live in.

This house is located in the deepest part of the inner courtyard of the Jin Palace, with its own independent back door, and a small garden, and there is a secret passage in the small garden that communicates with the palace.

But if you enter the mansion through the back door and are not familiar with the secret passage in the small garden, the uninformed person will not know that he actually lives in the palace.

Chu Junmo's purpose in doing this was to facilitate himself to protect Ah Xiyan, but not to let Ah Xiyan know that he actually lived in the palace, so as not to restrain Ah Xiyan and refuse his kindness.

In this way, Chu Junmo can easily visit A Xiyan without leaving the palace, so over time, it will only be a matter of time before he becomes a friend who talks about everything.

When Ah Xiyan heard Chu Junmo mention that she might have heard someone mention her name at a friend's house, she also felt that it was very likely.

In her eyes, since this Mo Gongzi is the royal guard of the palace, he should have seen most of the dignitaries in the imperial city in the palace, and even members of the royal family, and the friends around him are also all over the imperial city, and it is not unusual to have the opportunity to hear her name mentioned.

What's more, the peace charm jade pendant left to her by her parents is a jewelry that only large families can afford, so it is very likely that Mo Gongzi has really seen her parents.

Moreover, Ah Xiyan did not plan to leave the imperial city before she found out her life experience, and she also felt that what Chu Junmo said was right, if she lived alone in the inn with her appearance, it would inevitably attract people with bad intentions.

Therefore, being able to temporarily live in Chu Junmo's idle mansion can not only give her peace of mind, but also repay her kindness by helping him take care of the mansion, which is indeed the best of both worlds for her.

"Well, this method is good, and it can repay the favor, and you can live at ease, I am not welcome to the little woman. It's just that my baggage is still in the room on the third floor. Can you accompany me upstairs to pick it up? I'm afraid they'll ...... again."

Ah Xiyan replied without objection.

It's just that when she remembered that her burden was still in the guest room on the third floor of the Yuelai Inn, and when she glanced at the man who had held her hostage with a stick before was still glaring at her viciously not far away, she whispered to Chu Junmo for help again.

"What's so difficult about this, it just so happens that a few of my friends are here, you go to the humble house with me first, and they will help you settle the matter here, and take your baggage back and send it to my humble house. If there are no objections, shall we? ”

Chu Junmo pointed to Wang Xu and a few plainclothes royal guards not far away, and said disapplaudedly.

He also motioned to Wang Xu with his eyes to deal with the people of Yuelai Inn strictly, so as not to harm a weak woman like A Xiyan in the future.

Afterwards, Chu Junmo took A Xiyan across the road, bypassed the main gate of the Jin Palace, and walked towards the house at the back gate of the palace......
