Chapter 100 I Seventy-Three, When I First Met
"When did you become aware of it?"
The bonfire is lit, and the crispy wild boar meat falls among the green lotus leaves, which has a unique artistic conception. Shen Huai casually pushed the cut meat to Gu Mingxiu, took out a handkerchief and wiped the dagger, and asked her lazily: "Agarwood is considered a superior person among my brocade guards, but it may not be able to show its feet so easily." β
Gu Mingxiu fiddled with the lotus leaf and looked at him intently: "You know where my medicine is." β
The girl's eyebrows and eyes were bent, and she looked at him with a smile, not annoyed at all. Slender fingers casually hooked the sachet on his waist, Gu Mingxiu looked at Shen Huai fixedly, and said lightly: "The matter of this medicine.... At that time, it was only me and Yiyi who were present, so naturally no one else knew. It's just that there will inevitably be some accidents on the road, just in case, Yiyi told Agarwood about the medicine, but did not tell Mozhu. β
Seeing a faint smile in Shen Huai's eyes, Gu Mingxiu laughed lightly: "Even if Mozhu knows about this..... I wouldn't doubt her either. She has been by my side since I was a child and will never betray me no matter what. And agarwood ....." she blinked, "Agarwood was found by the side of the road, although I went to check her background at that time, but it is no different from what she said, now that I think about it, I am afraid it is also your handiwork." β
Shen Huai bowed his head, but he didn't refute: "What you said is right, that was originally a play for you." β
"What happened next to me..... You probably know it all clearly. Gu Mingxiu said.
Leaning down slightly, he raised his hand and rubbed Gu Mingxiu's head, Shen Huai was not afraid that she would be angry, so he nodded calmly and calmly: "Yes." Agarwood is the person you planted next to you on the way home, your affairs, big or small, she is reporting to me...... Of course, not everything I know is clear, what to say to me and what not to say, she naturally has a sense of proportion in her heart. β
After a pause, Shen Huaifang noticed that something was wrong, and he frowned slightly: "It's not to monitor you by your side, the agarwood is placed next to you to protect you, your maids don't know martial arts, and it's not safe to be next to you." β
Letting the other party rub her head, Gu Mingxiu raised her head suddenly, and Shen Huai's hand fell on her cheek. Gu Mingxiu blinked, and said in a slow voice: "I don't want to question you anything, I still know whether Agarwood is an enemy or a friend by my side, otherwise, I wouldn't have doubted her now." β
She lowered her eyes and laughed softly: "Now think about it.... There are indeed many doubts. Since I returned to Yangzhou, there has always been a feeling of helping some nobles, I'm afraid that she secretly gave you a lot of news, causing you to appear every time... It's all so timely. β
Shen Huai raised his hand and gently touched Gu Mingxiu's somewhat cold face, and sighed slightly: "You are alone, I am always worried." β
The young man's words were soft and serious, falling gently like a feather on the heart lake, stirring up a ripple.
Gu Mingxiu lowered his eyes, and his long eyelashes trembled slightly: "Shen Huai, when are you..... Beginning to get your heart on me? She calmed her breath, and when she raised her head to look at him seriously, there was a bit of inquiry in her eyes, like a very curious little girl, who was bound to ask, "We are obviously .... I saw Merlin for the first time that day. β
The thumb rubbed the little girl's soft and cold face, and Shen Huai bent his lips and smiled lazily: "Not really." The first time we met was not in Merlin...... Xiao Xiu'er, do you really not remember this king? He raised his eyebrows, and couldn't help laughing when he looked at her slightly frowning and thinking because of confusion, "Seven years ago, on a snowy night, the mountain bamboo forest behind Chongming Temple. β
Seven years ago, on a snowy night, Chongming Temple.
The young man raised his eyebrows, and there was a bit of a lazy and serious light in his eyes: "Don't you remember?" β
Gu Mingxiu stared at Shen Huai with some confusion, the other party's gaze was serious and gentle, teaching her that something in her mind was pushed away from the shadows, and gradually appeared clearly in the memory of the past - but there was only one outline, and it was difficult to clearly remember the scene and experience at that time.
She frowned and shook her head slowly, "I don't remember." β
The young man paused, and a few bits of light slowly faded from his eyes. Seeing this, Gu Mingxiu felt a little guilty in his heart, and said in a soft voice: "When I was young, I was frail, and I was clearly prone to illness, and I always couldn't remember too many things. Looking back now, only the memory on the sickbed is clearer, and I can't remember anything else. β
She looked a little nervous and well-behaved, as if she was coaxing a child: "It's better to.... Can you tell me about it? β
Obviously because of the reason for changing one's life against the sky.... She remembered about Shen Huai, and she couldn't remember a single bit about Shen Huai. If he really wants to investigate it, it is clear that he caused the trouble himself, but now it makes the little girl in front of him feel guilty, and it is a little teasing for him.
Shen Huai laughed lightly, suddenly stretched out the hand that fell on Gu Mingxiu's cheek to the back of her head, and lazily wrapped the other party in his arms. Gu Mingxiu was caught off guard by being picked up, subconsciously knelt forward, and crashed into Shen Huai's arms in a daze, she opened her eyes wide, and she heard the young man's pleasant and pleasant voice.
"Seven years ago, you fell into my arms like this."
Seven years ago, snowy nights.
The snow fell on the earth and covered everything in plain white clothes. Crystal clear ice cubes hang upside down on the branches, hanging upside down on the eaves, reflecting a little light moving slowly.
A small figure in a purple cloak sneaked open the door to the back mountain in the night, and somewhat clumsily closed the door again, leaving only a small crack in the door. A series of small footprints followed the door through the moon gate and came from a side room.
The moonlight is bright, and everything is plated with gentle moonlight.
The small figure slightly raised the lantern in his hand and looked up at the sky. Under the warm lamplight, a pair of clear and ignorant eyes are reflected. The young child in the purple cloak slowly walked towards the bamboo forest with the palace lantern, and the snow hat wrapped her cheeks in a small circle, but the little girl's face was not very good.
She walked up the back mountain with great difficulty, step by step into the bamboo forest. The little girl raised a hand to cover her mouth, bent down slightly, and tried to suppress her cough to the smallest sound. She had only coughed twice before she heard a low cough in her ear, which was slightly suppressed like her.
The little girl straightened up in surprise, raised the palace lamp a little nervously, looked around with a pair of big eyes, and spoke out uneasily and bewilderedly: "Who.... Who's where?! She subconsciously walked forward and said cautiously, "Yes, isn't it Mozhu?" Wrong... Mozhu won't scare me like that..... Muran? Isn't it you? β
There was silence all around, and there was no response.
The little girl sniffed and slowed down slowly: "Mulan.... You can't scare me, if you scare me, I, I won't play with you? I don't tell my mother that I ran away, don't scare me, let's go back together, okay? β
The last word fell, and the little girl kicked a stone, and with a stumble, she threw off the lantern in her hand and threw herself forwardβshe did not throw herself on a hard and cold ground, but into a soft and warm embrace.
Under the tree sat a young man, dressed in dark clothes, and it was difficult to make out the outline. The palace lamp rolled down in a low voice, brightly illuminating the movement on this side, and at the same time, the person who bumped into it straightened up blankly.
The little girl's nose was knocked to the ground, and tears rolled in her eyes, but she only sniffed, raised her head blankly and nervously, and met a pair of dark and cold eyes, as if she was looking at some danger. Xiao Gu Mingxiu blinked, with a bit of mist in his eyes, aggrieved and naΓ―ve.
The little boy holding her was silent for a moment, opened his mouth to say something, his eyes suddenly cold, and he turned his head and coughed softly and violently, and the person in his arms was also startled. The little boy covered his mouth and coughed to the side, and Xiao Gu Mingxiu quickly got up and knelt beside him, looking at him nervously.
The dark eyes rolled, looking at the little boy's demeanor, Xiao Gu Mingxiu seemed to understand something, and looked at the other party sympathetically and understandingly-when the little boy straightened up, he saw the little girl who was much younger than him showing a sympathetic and pitiful look to him.
Little boy: "..........??" β
"You also sneaked out." Xiao Gu Mingxiu spoke to him with great sympathy, she moved to his side, and sat beside him in the strange and silent gaze of the little boy. The moment the shoulder touched the shoulder, the little boy's body stiffened, but Xiao Gu Mingxiu didn't notice it, just tried to divide the cloak and draped it generously with the little boy.
She smiled and comforted him: "I know, you're also afraid of being discovered, aren't you?" It's okay, don't be afraid, I'm afraid of being found by them. The little girl sighed, sat side by side with him, and looked up at the snow, "But I haven't seen you before... Are you locked up in a room like me, and you can't even get out of the door? β
"Then you get sick as often as I do....." The little girl turned her head to look at the silent little boy, as if she understood his symptoms very well, and whispered, "Little brother, don't be unhappy.... My mother said that it was very uncomfortable to be sick, and if she was unhappy, it would be difficult to get better. β
She showed a gentle and bright smile to the little boy she didn't know: "Smile more, if you smile more, you will be happy, and everyone will be very happy when you see it." Blinking, seeing that the little boy didn't react, she straightened up and stretched out her two hands to rub the little boy's cheeks, and said with a smile, "That's-ah, you smiled." β
The night was dark, and the little girl's smile was bright and gentle.
"Anything can be solved when you laugh."
"Little brother, smile more."
