10 missed nights

"Did you meet anyone when you went out tonight?" After a while, Zhao Yuanting asked.

"Nope." Xia Muyao didn't think about it, so she replied.

But she answered too simply, she just wanted to cover it up, but let Zhao Yuanting implement her idea, and then he said to Xia Muyao quietly: "It's good if you don't have it, people's hearts are complicated, you don't have to trust others at will." ”

Xia Muyao ate by herself, as if she hadn't heard Zhao Yuanting's words.

"Did you hear me?" Zhao Yuanting looked at Xia Muyao's deaf look, and couldn't help but ask.

"Haven't you learned the words of a saint?" Xia Muyao replied lightly.

Ha. Zhao Yuanting opened his mouth and almost laughed, is this little thing teaching him a lesson? Despite this, Zhao Yuanting still consciously shut up.

Xia Muyao ate a small amount of food, and she was full after eating only a few things, and then she put down her chopsticks, "I want to bathe." ”

Zhao Yuanting nodded, "I have just ordered someone to prepare." ”

"Then you go down." Xia Muyao said lightly. The tone was the same as what she had told the palace people in the palace before.

Zhao Yuanting was dumbfounded, her princess's temper should not be changed for a while, so she got up and said, "Then you rest earlier after bathing." ”

Xia Muyao was noncommittal, listening to Zhao Yuanting's footsteps going out, she couldn't help but sigh, tonight, she was going to stay in this strange place after all.

Zhao Yuanting returned to the celebration banquet, the guests at the banquet were almost scattered, and the remaining few were all drunk, Zhao Changgou had already arranged for the housekeeper to let these people live in the general's mansion at night.

Huerhe had also left, and when he was leaving, he made an appointment with Zhao Chang to come tomorrow to discuss marriage. Huerhe is not a fool, he is coming tomorrow to meet the second miss of the Zhao family to see if it is the girl he saw last night, if not, he will ask Zhao Changgou to find her, then the girl who is out of the group should be easy to find.

After returning to his barracks stationed outside the imperial city, Huerhe packed up, lay down on the bed, and played with Xia Muyao's jasper hairpin in his hand. The two maidservants who were in the bed sent by Zhao Chang came over to ask for their lives, but they were also waved away by Huerhe, his mind was full of Xia Muyao's appearance, and the soft and boneless touch when she was on his lap.

On just one side, he thought about her.

****

In the general's mansion, Zhao Yuanting waited for all the guests to rest properly before returning to his courtyard.

Pushing the door of the bedroom, Xia Muyao bolted it from the inside, Zhao Yuanting pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled, hesitating again and again, he didn't alarm her in the end, she experienced such a heavy blow in her life today, she should let her rest for a long time.

Zhao Yuanting turned to the side room, and when he lay on the bed, he remembered all the things he saw Xia Muyao for the first time today, and the amazing feeling was still warm, and he couldn't help but think that her father and mother were dead, and this little girl had never shed a single tear, and her heart was really hard.

I thought that Huerhe would come tomorrow, and he would definitely see Zhao De, and he would be exposed at that time, but he was afraid that Huerhe would ask his father to help find Xia Muyao out...... Thinking of this, Zhao Yuanting couldn't lie down, he wanted to meet his father and persuade him to help him hide Princess Heshuo.

Zhao Changgou had already lay down, but he heard the vigil's subordinates report that Zhao Yuanting was coming to see him, Zhao Changgou was slightly stunned and got up, Zhao Yuanting has always been rigorous, and it must be something urgent to come to see him late at night.

Zhao Yuanting saw Zhao Changgou and hurriedly gave a deep salute, "Disturb me late at night, and ask my father for forgiveness." ”

"It's okay, let's say, what's the matter?" Zhao Changgou said meaninglessly.
