Count with your fingers, Changji has saved me many times. If he doesn't mind, I'd like to make a promise.

But the truth is, he minds.

He has the thirteen mothers of the Wen family.

That generous, beautiful and wise Wen Er, who can carry a pen, can get on the horse, not at all like I always cause trouble for him,

I knew in my heart that Changji was very good to me, but out of sympathy or as a friend, there was no male or female affection in it. Or maybe he thinks of me as a sister.

In addition to not liking me, he really did his duty to me.

I actually understand it, but why my heart is getting more and more stuffy.

Changji had been gone for a long time, and I lay on the bed and meditated, tossing and turning. As soon as he turned over, the silver bell that drove his wrist and the copper bell that drove his ankle rang.

I touched the silver bell in my hand, and I was sad. Suddenly I remembered the woman in red, who was the person she said her name was Qiangdi? Why did she save me, and she still knows my mother's name.

But if she is my mother's friend, why is she cold to me. Could it be that she is Hoge's old lover and my aunt is a rival in love? No, no, Hege is a king, but both women are married, so why bother to make peach blossom debts difficult for his descendants. Or rather, Qiang Di deceived me. She saved me just for the secret edict, and she repeatedly threatened me to tell me the whereabouts of the secret edict in the cave, but fortunately, I kept my mouth shut, so she didn't succeed.

What is she for? Is she really my aunt's friend?

My biological mother, Helan Ruan, I have never met her, and I have rarely heard about her. I still don't know if she's still alive, and if she is, where she went, why didn't she come to see me?

Ever since I knew my background, I had also changed my way to ask about the whereabouts of He Ge and Uncle Su and my aunt, but they didn't say a word.

Uncle Su only said that because of his relatives' interference in politics and traitorous ministers in power, He Ge couldn't help but send my aunt out of the palace when he couldn't protect himself. She hid in Uloran House and disappeared after giving birth to me.

I don't know what she looks like, whether she is tall or short, fat or thin, I have never seen her, not even a portrait of her. I don't remember what year it was, but once I secretly climbed over the wall to see Hoge, and at that time, he was drunk and drunk, and sat under the plum tree with a wine jar in his arms. I was intent on teasing him, and as soon as I pinched his nose, he suddenly opened his mouth, calling a man's name intermittently.

I leaned closer to listen, only to hear him shouting Ruan Nguyen.

I thought he was calling me, but I just made a mistake, and I threw my waist and roared, "Hogg is so stupid! It's a deficiency, not Nguyen Nguyen! ”

He Ge was awakened by me, his eyes were half open, as if he was awake but not awake, as if he was asleep, and corrected him inarticulately: "It's Ruan Ruan, it's not a deficiency."

I don't know who Ruan Ruan is in his mouth, but he must be the mother of Hoge Xinna. Although I don't know much about Hege's harem, I have also heard that he doesn't like women, and is only obsessed with Danqing poetry. Except for the Empress Buliu Gu Clan, the Guifei Qiu Dun Clan, the Zhaoyi Thirsty Candle Hun Clan, and a few other concubines who have met but can't say their surnames, I really don't know that He Ge actually set up other concubines, and I don't know who this Ruan Ruan is.

Later, I thought about it, my biological mother Helan Ruan's name also has a Ruan character, Ruan Ruan called by He Ge, isn't it my mother. Anyway, I didn't know much about my birth mother.

The wind stirred the curtains and rattled the wind chimes hanging from them. I shifted my position and turned my head outward, and as soon as I lifted it, I saw a dazzling reflection of the light, which frightened me into shrinking back and jumping up.

"Who is it?"

As I exclaimed, a man in a patterned mask lunged at me with a sword. I was quick to see and immediately took out the dagger hidden under the pillow and slashed her hard.

Judging by her figure and a pair of revealing seductive eyes, she should be a woman. Her eyes were fierce, and she stabbed me mercilessly, and I couldn't dodge, thinking that I was going to take her sword for nothing, but she didn't stab me, which made me very puzzled.

She suddenly laughed, put away her sword, and approached me: "You girl, you are clever enough, but your movements are a little slower."

"Who are you and why are you killing me?" I asked.

She didn't speak, she stepped forward a few steps forward and reached out to grab my neck, I tried desperately to resist but couldn't break free.

The masked man stared at me, but there was no murderous intent in his eyes, and his voice was very soft: "Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you." As long as you don't make a noise to attract people, I'll let go of your neck. ”

I was choked by her neck like this, it was extremely difficult to breathe, and it was even harder to speak, where could I explain it to her!

I patted the back of her hand and said with difficulty: "If you want to say anything, you can't say it calmly and well, you have to choke someone's throat to feel domineering."

Logically speaking, if it were an acquaintance, I could recognize it just by hearing the voice, but the person in front of me was so well prepared that he deliberately concealed the characteristics of his voice so that I could not recognize it.

Seeing that my life was about to be lost, I had to slap the hand that grabbed my neck more and more, but this man was too strong, and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't break free.

"You...... Let go...... Let me go. …”

She sneered: "Why are you so disobedient."

I had a headache to suppress, and I was attacked coldly, and the other party was still such a strong person, and it was absolute to be below. I wailed in my heart, it seems that I must be gambling for my life again.

I struggled, and just when I thought I was dying, the hand around my neck let go and covered my mouth instead. Her tone was helpless: "You girl, why are you so breathless."

The man came and spoke in a suffocated voice, but now it changed, and I could hear some clues.

I patted the back of her hand and motioned for her to let go.

"It's okay if I let you go, but you have to make sure you don't shout."

I blinked.

She took her hand off my mouth and got up when the door was pushed open, and a figure rescued me. I was ecstatic, thinking it was Changji, but when I opened my eyes, it was Meng Jie's house.

The masked woman glanced at Meng Jie with a paranoid and cruel look, then turned around and looked at me in a dark way, and then walked away.

Meng Jie helped me back to the soft couch, saw that I was covered with blood, frowned, and said hurriedly: "Are you injured?" ”

I immediately examined myself, and my expression was awe-inspiring: "No, this blood belongs to the masked man." ”

Meng Jie understood and took over the conversation: "Can you see the face of that assassin clearly?" Who is it? ”

I shook my head: "I don't see clearly, I don't know."

In fact, I have already confirmed my conjecture, but I don't know how to explain it, Qiang Di's identity is unknown, and she doesn't explain her meaning to me, and even her name is difficult to say. I don't want to make trouble, and I don't want to make trouble for others, so naturally I can't reveal the matter of Qiang Di to Meng Jie.

I turned around and turned inward to look at him, and whispered, "Go back, I'm going to sleep."

"You should be more careful, and don't sleep too hard at night, for fear she will come again." I'm right next door to you, and if you have something to do at night, just call me out loud. ”

I turned around again, unconcerned, and said, "It's okay, the assassin may have been sent by my uncle to protect me." She wouldn't have killed me, or she would have stabbed me when she came in. ”

Meng Jie bowed his head and raised his eyes to look at me, his eyes were gentle and full of affection. I was uncomfortable with not starting.

"I am very anxious and guilty that day when you were taken captive...... I wanted to find you first, but I was one step too late. ”

I heard his sigh, one over the other.

I was amused, so I got up and knelt on the couch and craned my neck to look at him. He glanced at me, and then looked away.

I laughed and said, "Are you apologizing to me?"

His expression was slightly sad, and he thought he was sorry for me. In fact, it's no wonder that he didn't know that Mo Yan would come to arrest me, even if he was there, he couldn't do anything, maybe he would be beaten by Mo Yan and couldn't get up. If you are serious, it is also because of me that he suffered this injury, and I should not live with him.

I coughed and said generously, "It's okay." Didn't I come back in good time? You don't have to feel guilty, don't feel sorry for me, it's none of your business. ”

"How can that work, I, Meng Jie, have always been a responsible and responsible person. I went out with you, but I lost you, and you were so badly wounded. I have to make it up to you. ”

His voice suddenly rose to the top of his voice, as if you looked down on me.

I crossed my legs, put my hands on my knees, and said boredly: "Then how can you compensate, another string of sugar gourds prevaricating me?" I tell you, no acceptance. Unless it's a hundred strings, I'm not going to accept it easily. ”

He took a deep breath, as if he wanted to be righteous, and said with a decisive word: "I plan to make a promise with my body!"

I stumbled and almost fell to the ground.

I gritted my teeth and said hatefully, "You're not compensating, you're here to mend the knife."

He touched his nose embarrassedly, and gave another roll of his eyes: "Don't get cheap, sell well."

I protested loudly, saying that I never took advantage of others.

He boasted about himself and vowed to stuff himself into me, but I sternly refused.

Meng Jie, this person, jokes more and more every positive shape.

In the end, in order to apologize, Meng Jie fried a bitter medicine and forced me to drink it, and I felt that he was taking revenge on me.

After drinking the medicine, I fell asleep again.

By the next day, the fever had subsided, but the man had no strength and just lay crookedly on the bed, not wanting to get up.

Changji cooked me a bowl of light and tasteless white porridge, I endured the regurgitation and drank it clean, my mouth was bitter, I said I wanted to eat a roast chicken, he refused without thinking about it, saying that the diet should be light during the illness, and you can't eat too greasy things.

I pretended to agree, thinking that in the evening I would sneak into the kitchen to find something to eat.

Finally staying up until the evening, I came out of my room, covered my face, and prepared to go straight to the kitchen. Suddenly, I heard a melodious sound, and I don't know where it came from. I couldn't resist my curiosity, looked for the sound from where it came from, and before I knew it, I came to a small courtyard.

I carefully observed it from the crack in the door for a long time, and there was a green poplar courtyard in the door, in addition to the willow and green branches, there was also a loquat tree. At the corner of the cloister in the court, two maids walked over with a smile.

I boldly pushed open the door and walked in, and as soon as I stepped into the courtyard, a gust of breeze came slowly, blowing down a garden of catkins and poplars, and falling on one shoulder, which made people reluctant to blow away.

There was no one in the court, so I walked around, wondering how to reach the huge and attractive loquat in the tree.

As soon as he put his hand on the trunk of the tree, he suddenly heard a loud shout behind him: "Who is sneaking around here?" ”

Oops, being discovered, sounds like a woman.

I didn't dare to pronounce it, and I ran towards where I came from without looking back. I ran fast, and the people behind me were not slow. Before she heard the sound of approaching footsteps, one of her shoulders was already grabbed. Seeing that the gate was just a few steps away, I didn't know who it was, and I didn't know who it was because I covered my face anyway, so I bit down her hand on the shoulder. While she was relieved of the pain, I ran to the back room in a daze.
