But...... Zhao Xiangling looked at the vendor selling sugar gourds on the side of the road and swallowed silently.

She felt that the temptation of the sugar gourd was really great.

If it weren't for Li Ruiqing's pulling, she really wanted to rush over and ask for a string.

The people of the country do not like sweets, so the hawkers holding grass and sticking sugar gourds in the crowd are particularly abrupt. Hardly anyone was around him, except for the occasional two children running past him.

Seeing Zhao Xiangling staring at the crystal sugar gourd inserted in the grass, Li Ruiqing coughed twice: "If you look at it any longer, someone will find out our whereabouts, not to mention the sugar gourd, you can't even see the bonfire." ”

Zhao Xiangling decisively withdrew his eyes.

Compared to the sugar gourd that she can eat when she goes back, it is obvious that the campfire is more tempting to her.

Besides, this is the first time she has gone out to play with Li Ruiqing seriously, and it would be a pity if she was found out and went back directly.

Zhao Xiangling's attention was quickly attracted by the three-person tall pyre in the square.

Zhao Xiangling had only heard of the bonfire festival in the Bright Kingdom. Because the country is dry and cold all year round, there is a custom of gathering people to keep warm, and the bonfire festival has been passed down from generation to generation.

It's still summer in the south, but it's bitterly cold, and the warm flames suddenly add to the warmth.

Standing under the bonfire, the blazing flames lit up Zhao Xiangling's face. Her eyes sparkled with the appearance of a campfire.

But she knew she couldn't stay here for long.

Her and Li Ruiqing's goals were too obvious, and it might be fine to stand in the crowd, but once they stood by the bonfire, it was tantamount to greatly increasing the possibility of Zhao Xuan finding them.

So after watching it for a while, Zhao Xiangling silently retreated into the crowd.

Li Ruiqing grabbed her hand, worried that he and Zhao Xiangling would be rushed away by the crowd. There are too many people here, if you get separated from Zhao Xiangling, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find her for a while.

Probably knowing his worries, Zhao Xiangling didn't run too far as usual.

She walked quietly in front of Li Ruiqing, only a pair of eyes were jumping and bright.

Li Ruiqing and Zhao Xiangling squeezed into the crowd while listening to everyone's noisy discussions.

Pieced together, you can get a lot of information.

For example, Tuhat almost went crazy on his wedding day. For example, there seems to be the sound of gold and iron in the palace in the middle of the night, and for example, the main city of the kingdom is under martial law, and it seems that there are people looking for something overwhelming.

Zhao Xiangling can answer these questions.

Naturally, Tuhat was going to go crazy. finally robbed Li Ruiqing, but was robbed by himself in public on the wedding day. In any other person, the groom who is robbed will not have a good temper.

The sound of gold and iron in the palace is probably a mutiny in the palace.

The contradiction between the Emperor and the eldest concubine has long been on the surface, and now that Li Ruiqing's incident has happened, I am afraid that they have completely torn their faces.

And not to mention finding someone, is it possible that there is a third person who needs to be found overwhelmingly? Except for her and Li Ruiqing, there will be no one else.

Zhao Xiangling digested the information he overheard, and he didn't notice Li Ruiqing's small movements. When she came back to her senses, Li Ruiqing already had a string of sugar gourds in her hand.

Zhao Xiangling's eyes widened: "You, where did you come from?" ”

She pulled Li Ruiqing's sleeve and looked left and right, but she couldn't see that there was a place where a string of sugar gourds could be placed.

Nonsense, sugar gourds, of course, can't be put in the sleeve.

"Zhao Xiangling." Li Ruiqing was pulled around, his clothes were rubbed in a mess, "If you don't eat it, if you don't eat it, I'll give it back to other children." ”

Zhao Xiangling noticed that there was a little boy next to her waist, who was drooling wet as he looked at the sugar gourd in her hand.

The boy threw a skewer beside him, apparently having eaten one.

Now that you've eaten one, you're still thinking about what you're doing?

Zhao Xiangling took a bite hard, chewed and said fiercely to the little boy: "This is bought for me, what are you worried about!" ”

As he spoke, he bit the crust of the sugar gourd.

The little boy was murdered by her, and his saliva stopped dripping, and he ran away with tears in his eyes.

The figurine Zhao Xiangling did not feel guilty at all, and he gnawed on his sugar gourd with peace of mind, not feeling that he was too much at all.

Li Ruiqing next to him shook his head: "Xiang Zero, you can't be so fierce to children." ”

Zhao Xiangling ate the last sugar gourd and said viciously: "What? If you don't want to be cruel to children, don't you want to be cruel to you? ”

Anyway, she has to be fierce, doesn't she?

Li Ruiqing has become accustomed to Zhao Xiangling's arrogance and unreasonableness. He also knew why Zhao Xiangling wanted to murder that child.

It's not because the child is worried about her sugar gourd, but the child's perception of beauty and ugliness is not clear, if someone asks Zhao Xiangling, he will never say that Zhao Xiangling is good-looking.

With such cognitive biases, it is difficult for Zhao Xian to find their traces through this child.

Zhao Xiangling's cunning, Li Ruiqing is not the first time to realize it, but every time he sees her as a demon, he will make new discoveries.

What Li Ruiqing was thinking, Zhao Xiangling didn't feel anything, but it wouldn't be a good thing, she felt it clearly.

There was still the sweetness of sugar on his mouth, and Zhao Xiangling squinted his eyes and looked around. The highest place is none other than the largest restaurant in the country.

The restaurant is three stories high, just enough to see the people below.

Zhao Xiangling smiled: "Ruiqing, do you think Zhao Xian will stand there and look at us?" ”

Since he can make people sell sugar gourds, there is a good chance that he himself will appear around here. And the highest place with the best perception is the place where he is most likely to appear.

Following Zhao Xiangling's gaze, Li Ruiqing raised his eyes and looked towards the restaurant.

The originally lively tavern is extremely deserted today, and it should be completely encased. As for the person who was packed, needless to say, it must be Zhao Xian.

He may or may not have seen himself.

As for whether it was discovered or not, Zhao Xiangling seemed to be indifferent. She still dragged Li Ruiqing to walk around the east and west, and she was very interested, and she wanted to see everything.

In contrast, Li Ruiqing was much colder.

He has never liked to be lively, which Zhao Xiangling knows in his heart. So when everyone began to dance around the bonfire, Zhao Xiangling silently pulled Li Ruiqing away.

If you want Li Ruiqing to dance, I'm afraid it will be impossible in the next life.

Zhao Xiangling didn't ask for this, so he didn't make any excessive requests.

She looked back and just wanted to ask Li Ruiqing for a favor, but she saw that the restaurant behind her suddenly went out with all the candles and went dark.

Zhao Xiangling's heart tightened, and he said in a deep voice: "It's not good, we have been discovered." ”

Since Zhao Xian came out, I am afraid that he already knows the direction in which he and Li Ruiqing are located.

Li Ruiqing also saw the dark restaurant, and knew that something was wrong, but he thought about it more than Zhao Xiangling: "Maybe it wasn't that he found us, but he wanted to use this to trick us out." ”
