On a June night, fireflies twinkle in the grass, fleckled with light that echoes the stars in the sky.

The lights were dim at night, and the girl was dressed in a thin white dress, her eyes staring at the dancing lights without blinking, and the warm yellow candlelight sprinkled a soft sheen on her face.

The girl held her chin with her bare hands, the beads were untied, her black hair was scattered behind her, and her slightly immature face was as calm as water.

Yin Xia walked in the door, her beautiful face was filled with a hint of joy, and she said to Lian Zhou: "Little Song girl, the young master is here." ”

The girl raised her eyes slightly, and saw Meng Hui appear in the field of vision, he waved his hand lightly towards Yin Xia and said, "You go down first." ”

Yin Xia replied crisply, "Obey", and after glancing at Lianzhou, he walked out with a smile.

There were only two people left in the room, Meng Hui and Lian Zhou.

"Waited for me for a long time?" Meng Hui lifted his robe and naturally sat on the chair opposite Lianzhou, his dark eyes looking at her.

Now the night was a little deeper, and Lianzhou had been sitting here since dark, in such a position, never moving, and not speaking.

However, Lian Zhou shook his head and replied, "No." ”

Meng Hui ignored her denial, and said with a light smile: "You and I have no grudges, under normal circumstances, I will not cause harm to you, you can rest assured." ”

Lian Zhou frowned slightly, quietly looking at the young man in front of him.

"That's not the answer you wanted? You talk to me because you're worried about your current situation. Meng Hui raised his eyebrows lightly.

The young man in front of him has delicate facial features, looks handsome, and looks quite indifferent when he is not smiling, with a kind of arrogance that looks down on all things, even if he smiles gently, smiles clearly, but there is always a faint sharpness, a faint coldness, and a faint arrogance.

Lian Zhou was about to speak, but suddenly his ears moved, he sensed the danger approaching, and was about to react, but when he saw Meng Hui slap the table, his body rushed straight towards her.

The young man's good smell invaded her nasal cavity, Lian Zhou's body was thin and weak, she couldn't bear Meng Hui's weight, and she was about to fall, but Meng Hui suddenly turned over and spun around, putting Lian Zhou's body on it, and she fell heavily to the ground.

A sharp sword pierced through where the boat was and stared fiercely at the bedrail.

Lian Zhou fell into Meng Hui's arms, his head hit his chest, the young man snorted, and then held Lian Zhou with one hand, and stood up on the ground with the other, and when the two stood up, they saw that there was already an extra man in black in the room.

The man in black drew his sword and slashed at the girl in Meng Hui's arms with a lightning-like movement.

Meng Hui pressed Lian Zhou's head, and the two of them suddenly flashed their waists, dodging the sharp sword blade, Meng Hui looked back with a cold eye, swept with a kick, and kicked heavily on the legs of the man in black.

The man in black snorted, but he didn't stop it, but approached even more, with a sharp knife in his hand, his eyes were extremely fierce, and the sword light flashed, and he was about to sink into Lian Zhou's chest.

Seeing that it was unstoppable, Meng Hui's eyes suddenly turned cloudy, and with a movement of his sleeves, he pushed the girl in his arms away, and his hands moved forward, holding the sharp blade alive.

Blood flowed down the young man's white fingers, Lian Zhou looked at his bloody hand, his eyes were shocked, and he suddenly remembered that the young man covered her cheeks with this hand this afternoon, and the cold fingertips were like a clear spring.

Meng Hui didn't snort, and when he saw that the man in black was surprised, his eyes immediately turned like lightning, twisted the sword, quickly unloaded the weapon of the man in black, and then stretched out his long legs and kicked the man in black in the lower abdomen.

Seeing this, the man in black changed his eyes, stood up straight, and pulled his legs to escape to the window.

Meng Hui's hand was still dripping with blood, turned his head, and said to the girl behind him: "Okay, it's okay, don't be afraid." ”

The girl looked at his bloodied hands, and for a moment did not know how to speak.

However, at this moment, the man in black who was about to reach the window suddenly paused, took out three darts and threw them in the direction of the boat, and then jumped out of the window.

Lian Zhou's eyes sank, and he was about to bend down to dodge the dart, but before he could move, he saw Meng Hui coming in a flash, quickly clasped her waist, and then moved her body, and the sharp dart fell, firmly inserted into the young man's back.

"Meng Hui!" Lian Zhou's pupils shrank and he exhaled.

The young man's lips suddenly lost their blood, his face turned pale, his eyes closed, and his body pressed heavily against her.

Lian Zhou's body fell to the ground, the back of her head made a dull sound of falling to the ground, her body was thin and weak, she couldn't break free from the pressure of the young man, she laboriously reached out a hand, slapped Meng Hui's face, and shouted: "Meng Hui, wake up." ”

The young man half-opened his eyes, and his deep pool-like eyes lost their color, like dusty black jade. He exhaled weakly around her neck, his voice ethereal: "Don't worry, I'm fine......"

"Young Master!" A large group of guards rushed to the door, and when they saw that their young master was seriously injured and fell to the ground, they couldn't help but exhale in unison.

The guards hurriedly helped Meng Hui up, Lian Zhou also stood up, and the guards set up their young master and were about to go outside.

When he walked to the door, Meng Hui's lips suddenly opened slightly, and he said, "Slow down." The guards obeyed the order and stopped, only to hear Meng Hui take a breath and then whispered: "Take her with you, it's not safe here." ”

The girl with scattered black hair stared at the words, her eyes fixed on the young man's bleeding back, pursed her lips, and raised her feet to follow him.

——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Late at night, the candles in Meng Hui's room were flickering, and the guards and maids retreated outside the door, and Lian Zhou arranged for Meng Hui to be in the room next to her, guarding her safety.

The venom was quenched on the dart, Meng Hui's face turned from pale at the beginning to a faint blue black, and Sun Nai's hand flicked lightly, piercing silver needles on the important acupuncture points behind the young man.

Meng Hui was naked, lying on the bed with his back to the sky, his eyes half-open and half-closed, and his heart was covered with tired ashes. Sun Nai slowly pushed the silver needle in, and the young man on the bed suddenly moved, and suddenly vomited a large mouthful of black blood.

Sun Nai shook his head, and finally couldn't help but sigh: "You can always be so cruel to yourself." ”

The young man slept on the pillow with his face facing out, opened his eyes, moved slightly, and then closed his eyes again, without answering Sun Nai's words.

After detoxifying and administering needles for him for so long, Sun Nai knew that the young man was fine, seeing that the young man's eyes were slightly sunken and his face was dead white, the doctor in his early thirties removed the silver needles on Meng Hui's body and said, "You can rest for a long time, think less and worry less, and recuperate with peace of mind." ”

After Sun Nai left, Meng Hui slowly opened his eyes, looking out the window at the dark night, his eyes dull.

And in the house next to Meng Hui, Lian Zhou was lying on the bed, and his eyes were also open, and he couldn't sleep for a long time.

Meng Hui was poisoned by her darts, and she slowly turned from shock at the beginning to calm. After thinking about it, she calmed down, and always felt that something was strange, but she couldn't think of what the specific strangeness was. I just vaguely feel that there seem to be other factors behind this body-to-body protection.

Her temples were pounding suddenly, and she always felt that this prime minister's mansion was not a place to stay for a long time.

But now she can't leave. First, she was possessed by a cardamom girl, and she lacked strength to leave at all; Second, judging from today's situation, there should be many people outside who are anxious to kill her, and escaping here does not mean safety; Thirdly, she had no evidence to prove that Meng Hui rescued her because of other plans, in case, this young man had no other thoughts, would it seem unkind for her to leave rashly.

Can't blame her for being too sensitive, her four-year undercover career has taught her that cautious and calm is always the best attitude to face problems, especially now that she is in this strange place, she has to be more cautious.

—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

For several days, Lian Zhou stayed in the room next to Meng Hui, and no one came to disturb her.

Now, although she still finds it difficult to accept the fact that her body has changed and time and space has shifted, after thinking about it for the past few days, her mood is not as difficult to calm down as it was at the beginning. But even if she is as strong as her, when she encounters such a situation, her mood is inevitably a little low.

She stayed in this house, quietly watching the sun rise and set, and suddenly felt that those past times were like dreams, out of reach.

Only Yin Xia is next to her, and the lively little girl will always say a lot of things to make her happy. Although Lian Zhou didn't show it on his face, he still felt extremely warm in his heart. After all, when a person is lonely, it is a joy to have someone to accompany her.

"Little Song girl, the slave maid told you, you have to beware of some Xin'er county lords in the future, and her sister is our eldest and youngest grandmother, both of them are very fierce people, especially the eldest and youngest grandmother, she can't see the most beautiful girl, you have to be careful."

Lian Zhou looked at the young face of the girl and said with a light smile: "You say bad things about your masters like this, aren't you afraid that they will let you be punished after they find out?" ”

"Hehe, I'm not afraid." Yin Xia smiled and said, "The second young master said that he wants the slave maid to tell you some things in the house, as long as you don't talk nonsense, even if the eldest young grandmother and the county lord Xin'er know, the second young master will protect the slave and maid." ”

Lian Zhou's eyes sank, pursed his lips, and did not speak again.

Yin Xia ignored Lian Zhou's silence, and still said to himself: "Brother Zongqi said, he said that the second young master wants to make the slave and maid Xiao Song girl happy, if the little Song girl can smile often, then the slave and maid can get a lot of rewards." ”

Lian Zhou's eyebrows frowned slightly, and he asked, "Yin Xia, why are your second young masters so good to me?" ”

Yin Xia smiled: "What's the reason, our second young master likes you, the slave maid has been in the Meng Mansion for several years, and I have never seen the second young master treat a girl so well." ”

Lian Zhou knew that he couldn't ask for any effective information from this simple girl's mouth, so he stopped talking and only listened to her words quietly.

"Really, don't believe it, yesterday our second young master was not fully ill, so he said to us maids to take good care of you and protect your safety, you see how much he cares about you." Yin Xia pouted.

Lian Zhou's eyes became more and more calm, according to the context, Meng Hui and Song Lianzhou should not be old acquaintances, because Meng Hui did not have doubts about Song Lianzhou's changes, if there is still an element of heroes saving beauty in the past few days, now this kind of earnest care is very debatable. According to what Yin Xia said, Meng Hui is not a woman, she is not a frivolous and prodigal person, it is impossible to be easily emotional to her who has not known her for a long time, and Song Lianzhou is only thirteen or fourteen years old now, it can be said that she is still a half-old child, how could he have impure thoughts about her.

There must be some other purpose.

Yin Xia didn't see Lian Zhou's flashing eyes, and he was still alone there and said, "By the way, Miss Xiao Song, our young master is much better, do you want to go and see him." ”

Lian Zhou's eyes were raised, and after a while, he said, "Go ahead." ”

Now everyone can see that Meng Hui is seriously injured in order to treat her, if she doesn't go to see him once, it will definitely make people suspicious, and Meng Hui will definitely wonder if she is aware of it, if so, then her situation will be very disadvantageous.

It must be quiet and business as usual.
