This sudden embarrassment was quickly broken by the crying sound, and the crying of the woman ...... still stopped.

Huangfu Hongyi finally let go of her, and the two walked towards the backyard of Fengqi Palace.

In the backyard of this Fengqi Palace, in addition to overgrown weeds, there is only one well in the middle of the courtyard, and by the moonlight, no one else can be seen at all.

And the crying also stopped abruptly, Shangguan Yutang walked to the well, lowered his head and looked, the well water inside was sparkling and reflecting the full moon, this well was not shallow.

Huangfu Hongyi walked around the backyard and didn't find anyone else, where did Fang Cai's cry come from?

"Hongyi, you also came in when you heard the cry just now?" Shangguan Yutang turned his head to look at him.

Huangfu Hongyi nodded slightly and said, "This king heard the cry and saw a suspicious girl. ”

"Huh? Who is it? Shangguan Yutang looked serious, thinking that Huangfu Hongyi had seen the girl who was crying.

How did she know that the other party's eyes had been falling on her, and she realized who the "suspicious girl" Huangfu Hongyi was talking about.

Shangguan Yutang rubbed his nose in embarrassment: "I'...... I went to visit my aunt today, so I changed into women's clothes. ”

This is the first time Huangfu Hongyi has seen her wearing women's clothes, and the night is too dark, so he didn't recognize her outside the Fengqi Palace.

He walked to Shangguan Yutang's side, looked at the well with cold eyes, and said, "It's silent, let's go." ”

Huangfu Hongyi and Shangguan Yutang walked on the palace road, Shangguan Yutang had been pondering about Fang Cai's affairs, why she and Huangfu Hongyi both heard the cry from Fengqi Palace, but after entering, they found nothing.

Huangfu Hongyi squinted at her, and took the initiative to ask, "What are you thinking?" ”

Shangguan Yutang: "I'm thinking about the cry just now." ”

Huangfu Hongyi: "There may be ghosts." ”

"Huh?" Shangguan Yutang has always been an atheist, and as soon as she raised her eyes, she saw a playful smile on the corner of Huangfu Hongyi's mouth.

"It's rare, King Duanxian, who is as cold as ice, would actually joke with me?"

Huangfu Hongyi retracted his smile and returned to his previous plainness: "It depends on who is right." ”

Shangguan Yutang raised his eyebrows: "Then is it an honor for a people's daughter?" ”

"That's nature." Huangfu Hongyi said it lightly, and he didn't feel narcissistic at all.

The folk girl said she was flattered. Shangguan Yutang bowed his head solemnly beside Huangfu Hongyi.

Unconsciously, the two walked outside the palace gate, and it happened that the sedan chair of the Chen Mansion was stopping in front of the palace gate.

Huangfu Hongyi's temperament is outstanding, Chen Xiyue found Huangfu Hongyi at a glance in the crowd, but why is there a woman next to him?

"King Duanxian!"

Chen Xiyue ran in front of Huangfu Hongyi regardless of her image, she glanced at Shangguan Yutang, her eyes were full of hostility.

Shangguan Yutang felt the hostility of the other party, thinking that she had misunderstood.

"King Duanxian, next month is my father's fortieth birthday, can you come?" Chen Xiyue looked at Huangfu Hongyi with a harmless face, just waiting for him to nod.

Huangfu Hongyi looked at her coldly and said, "It's still early, let's talk about it then." ”

Looking at the back of Huangfu Hongyi and Shangguan Yutang leaving, Chen Xiyue pursed her lips unwillingly, she has been spoiled since she was a child, and once upon a time was she coldly looked down on by men? And the woman beside him, if it is a stumbling block that hinders her from becoming Princess Duanxian, she will definitely get rid of that woman as soon as possible!

……

Protector Villa

Shangguan Yutang said goodbye to Huangfu Hongyi and returned to his Wood Demon Residence, it was late at night, presumably the eldest brother had rested.

Tonight's confession plan is in vain, hey, forget it, there will be opportunities in the future, it depends on whether you have the courage to speak.

In the fire demon house, Huangfu Hongyi took off his clothes, and his strong and sturdy body fell into the bath tub, he leaned against the bathtub and closed his eyes to recuperate, and after a while, he slowly opened his eyes and looked at his strong right hand.

The soft touch, as if still lingering in the palm of his hand, was the first time he saw her wearing women's clothes, more beautiful than he imagined, the corners of Huangfu Hongyi's mouth unconsciously hooked a good-looking arc.

The water splashed, he got up suddenly, and with a wave of his big hand, a white robe fell on him.

Huangfu Hongyi walked to the side of the bed and took out a brocade box from the mahogany cabinet on the side.

When I opened the brocade box, there was a small earth-gray clay figure inside, which was almost unrecognizable, but it was still carefully collected by Huangfu Hongyi.

My mind went back eleven years ago......

The blood of the second prince's mansion flowed into a river, his father and mother died tragically under the enemy's knife, Xiao Hongyi saved his life under the protection of his father and mother, and his mother's words kept lingering in his ears: "Hongyi...... Come on! Don't look back! Come on! ”

Nine-year-old Xiao Hongyi kept running, he didn't dare to turn back, he didn't dare to stop, he crossed the mountains, ran for two days and two nights, ran all the way from Beiyang City to the imperial capital, and finally, he was exhausted and collapsed in front of a broken temple.

On this day, it was raining heavily, Xiao Hongyi's body was already wet with rain, he couldn't run, he really couldn't run, the enemy came, he was not afraid, he could be with his father and mother when he died......

Xiao Hongyi thought that he would die without a place to be buried, but when he opened his eyes, he was greeted by a dirty little beggar.

"Hey, hey, you're awake!" The little beggar laughed.

Xiao Hongyi pushed her away, and looked at the grizzled little beggar in front of him with disgust: "You...... Who are you? ”

The little beggar was pushed by Xiao Hongyi and sat on the ground, her small body got up and patted her dirty buttocks.

"My name is Xiao Yu, it rained heavily yesterday, and you fainted in front of this broken temple, so I dragged you back."

While talking, the little beggar picked up the steamed buns in the broken bowl, and she broke the steamed buns in half and handed half to Xiao Hongyi.

Xiao Hongyi frowned and looked at the five black finger prints on the white steamed buns, and he was even more disgusted: "It's dirty, I won't eat it!" ”

The little beggar opened his mouth and took a bite and chewed the white flour steamed bun in his hand, which was as delicious as eating delicacies from the mountains and seas.

"Hmm...... If you don't eat, you'll be hungry. ”

Xiao Hongyi glanced at her and said with a backbone: "If you don't eat, you won't eat!" It's not uncommon for you to have dirty steamed buns! ”

The little beggar asked vaguely while eating, "By the way, what's your name?" How could he faint at the gate of the ruined temple? ”

"Xiao Wang's name is ......" Xiao Hongyi hesitated, how could he tell strangers his name? So he said nonsense: "My name is Xiao Wang." In fact, the word "Xiao Wang" is just his self-title.

The little beggar asked, "What about your father?" ”

Parents?! Xiao Hongyi's eyes were red, tears fell down his eyes, his father and mother had died tragically under the enemy's knife, and since then they have been separated by yin and yang, and he no longer has a father and mother.

The little beggar saw that Xiao Hongyi was crying, and hurriedly comforted: "You...... Don't cry, a manly man doesn't cry easily, you don't have to worry, if your father doesn't want you anymore, you still have me......"
