Chapter 67: The Winged Bird
After Qin Sheng had dinner with the old lady, he talked with her before preparing to go back.
At this time, it was getting late, and the old lady wanted to let the maid ring beside her send Qin Sheng, but she refused, "Let them stay and take care of their grandmother, and Sheng'er will go back alone." ”
Holding a dim lantern in his hand, Qin Sheng found that when he walked out, he found that the house was full of lanterns everywhere at some point.
My grandmother was still thrifty, and in the past, no lanterns were placed at night in places where no one was.
Now that there are many more guards in this full house, Qin Sheng probably knows that these may be for her.
Grandmother must have heard the news of her assassination, so she arranged the general's mansion so tightly, with lights everywhere and guards everywhere.
But in the two days since she returned home, her grandmother didn't ask her about the Jianghu chase and kill order.
Qin Sheng's eyes were filled with mist, his grandmother was very strict with them on the surface, but in fact, she loved them too much.
The grandmother lost her husband in middle age and lost her son in old age.
The whole country and the world are like fathers and grandfathers. It is also like a grandmother's lonely waiting for the soldier's family.
In the darkness, the girl's hands tightened unconsciously, when would she know the truth about her parents' deaths.
With something on his mind, walking around casually, when Qin Sheng looked up, he found that he had walked into the pavilion in the backyard.
The pavilion is built on the pond, which is a good place for them to cool off in summer, and the cold wind in spring blows people slightly cold.
Some time ago, she jumped into the pond for fear that the prince would find out that she was not in the house all night. Now that I think about it, I just feel that the pool water is cold.
A crescent moon is reflected on the water, quiet and beautiful.
Qin Sheng sat alone in the gazebo, the cold wind blew through her hair, and she couldn't blow away the heavy burden in her heart.
She sat stunned, I don't know how long it took, as if the thought had passed summer and autumn.
It wasn't until a cold wind hit that she couldn't help but shiver, and only in the afterglow did she see a black shadow on the high wall, facing her with the moonlight on her back, and she didn't know how long she had been sitting there.
Qin Sheng subconsciously touched the short knife on her waist, but seeing that the figure seemed to be somewhat familiar, she hesitated.
In the moment of her hesitation, the black shadow came towards her like a breeze and landed in front of her eyes.
The man in white was dressed in a fluttering garment, his long arms slightly bent, wrapped around her waist, and with a light lift in his hand, he swept back into the air with her.
The man's light feats were unparalleled, and no one in the heavily guarded general's mansion found him breaking in.
At this moment, he was taking the master of the General's Mansion and blatantly flew around the top of the General's Mansion, and then turned around and flew away to the quiet woods with the person in his arms.
In the dark night, the vision was not clear, and when a playful child of the Orion family at the foot of the mountain got up at night, he saw a shadow, and when he returned to the house, he said mysteriously, "Daddy, I saw the winged bird."
Orion, who was sleeping in a daze, kicked his son's leg, "If you don't sleep Lao Tzu again, get out." ”
"Oh," the boy snuck out, looking in the direction the winged bird had flown over.
Qin Sheng didn't say much, Lan Xingchen deliberately took her around the General's Mansion, just to tell her that the guards of the General's Mansion were useless to the masters.
He paused on tiptoe at the top of the hill and wrapped the petite girl in his arms to shield her from the cold wind.
The man's warm breath came to his nostrils, and Qin Sheng's cheeks were hot, which continued to the root of his ears.
