In the evening, it was already raining, and the attendants on Emperor Wei's side were worried about his health, so they returned early. After the prince and the others returned in turn, only Feichi was left to continue to wait here, as well as Wang Fu, who was waiting by Emperor Wei's side.

"Guard Liu, this Miss Sheng San hasn't been found yet, so you're drinking and eating meat here, I'm afraid it's not appropriate, right?"

Liu Feichi is now a guard in the palace, but the temperament of the children of the previous family has not been confiscated, and he has looked down on the eunuch since he came, and wiped the oil stains on the side of his mouth, "Princess, now it is raining in the forest, and I don't know what fierce beasts there are, that Sheng Mingzhu is a noble person, and you eunuchs are serving people, but we have a proper official position, and our lives are not cheaper than others?" ”

Like Wang Fu, who has served in the palace for many years, he usually smiles when he meets, but now his face is gloomy for a moment, and he said, "Guard Liu, you said in front of Your Majesty that you want to assist our family, but after today, Miss Sheng San can't find it, something really went wrong, we will be reprimanded by Your Majesty, and you can't run." ”

Liu Feichi got up from the desk and pushed away Wang Fu's hand on the tip of his nose, "This forest is so big, I can't remember where it is for a while, Wang Gonggong...... It seems to be there......" He pointed in one direction, but was stunned for a moment, only to see a fast horse galloping under the rain curtain.

The man was dressed in a black riding suit, and his black hair was half wet.

"My subordinates have seen the governor of Guandu", Liu Feichi hurriedly knelt down and saluted Guan.

The palace guards are under the jurisdiction of the East Factory. An emperor handed over almost the same thing as his life to outsiders for safekeeping, and the family hated Guan Ping, but Liu Feichi couldn't afford to provoke him.

Guan Ping got off the horse, looked at Liu Feichi kneeling at the bottom with indifferent eyes, and then looked at Wang Fu on the side, "Princess, what's wrong?" ”

Wang Fu made a bitter face and said, "The slave maid has already led the dog to look for it just now, but when she went down, the smell was washed away, and the hunting dog couldn't find it." The Liu guard said that he couldn't remember the previous location, and he looked for more than three hours, but he didn't see anyone...... "In the end, it is also a golden branch and jade leaf, maybe I am panicking."

"Tie him up first," Guan Ping ordered.

Liu Feichi was still kneeling and didn't get up, and was soon surrounded by guards, he suddenly raised his head, "My subordinates don't know what they have done?" ”

Guan Ping didn't reply to his words, Liu Feichi only said that Sheng Mingzhu was missing, and no one had been found yet. Wang Fu leaned into Guan Ping's ear and said something, Liu Feichi thought he was going to ask himself, but he didn't expect Guan Ping to just let someone take an umbrella, and soon took the guards in to find someone.

——

It was already night, but there was no moonlight because of the rain.

Sheng Mingzhu was soaked, and after three or four hours, after eating in the morning, there was nothing in her stomach until now, so she opened a pair of eyes and looked up, the rain was still heavy, at first she hid below for a while, but now she is soaked, there is no point in hiding, it is better to make a few more shouts of help at the entrance of the cave.

Maybe justice will fall from heaven before she freezes to death, Sheng Mingzhu rubbed his frozen and numb arm, and his heart was numb.

Guan Ping led the guards straight to the place before Wei Xi.

There is only the deepest bear den in this paddock, and the heart that is not calm when he thinks of this is even more violently beating, he knows that Liu Feichi and her have a grudge quickly, but he didn't expect this guy to be so bold-

"Sheng Mingzhu—" He carried the night light and walked all the way into the depths.

Sheng Mingzhu was trembling from the rain, and in a trance heard someone calling herself, she didn't react at first, and only suddenly stood up when he screamed a few times, "I'm here-" The rain was a little heavy, and she couldn't hear what she was talking about, and she was afraid that the person would leave, so she hurriedly shouted again, "I'm here." ”

Guan Ping heard it when she said the first time, and hurriedly threw down the night light and walked quickly in the direction of the sound.

"Are you down there?"

Sheng Mingzhu brushed the wet hair off her face and looked up at it again. The winter rain may be cool, Guan Ping looked at the person below, she looked at herself with a pair of eyes, her lips were also pale, and she looked very pitiful, like a pom-pom when it was just born, wilting, only a pair of eyes were moist.

"Uncle Guan...... "I was alone just now and had nothing to do, and I could even say something to comfort myself."

But when she really came over, Sheng Mingzhu wanted to cry, she was really afraid to stay here alone. Liu Feichi also deliberately sprinkled so much honey, which was sticky and greasy, and maybe it would attract bears.

It is said that a wise man will make a mistake in a thousand thoughts, and a fool will gain a thousand thoughts. Smart people rarely do stupid things, Guan Ping may have done one such stupid thing over the years, the night is very dark, he walks fast, and the people behind him don't even see his back, he has gone down.

Sheng Mingzhu hid behind her slightly, there was no light inside, she looked ahead, only to see a shadow, "Uncle Guan?" ”

Guan Ping took out the fire fold from his sleeve, and it was only a little light after blowing, but it made Sheng Mingzhu see his face clearly, and exhaled slightly, the space in the cave was not large, and the faces of the two were almost close to each other, Sheng Mingzhu found that there was still some water on his face, "Are you hurt?" ”

Sheng Mingzhu sniffed, mud marks and tears on her face, "I'm about to freeze to death...... I fell into the willow flying pool, and sprinkled honey into it to deliberately scare the black bear, and I must break his leg when I go out-"

Before she finished speaking, she was suddenly hugged into her arms, it was too tight, she was wearing a riding suit and not a winter coat, and now she was soaking wet, and she could notice everything.

"It's okay...... "Xu was in the rain for too long, and his voice was a little hoarse. Sheng Mingzhu felt that Guan Ping should care about her at first, so she lost her sense of proportion, and did not continue to complain, but refused slightly, reminding, "I'm fine, Uncle Guan, let's go out." ”

The voice of the person in her arms was soft, and it was obviously raining on her head, but her body was much hotter than his.

Guan Ping hugged her tightly and hugged her tightly, burying his head in her neck. Sheng Mingzhu didn't tremble so much when she was in the rain, she had goosebumps all over her body, and hurriedly wanted to push people away, but Guan Ping had already let go of her and staggered a safe distance. Sheng Mingzhu only heard him breathing deeply.

After a moment he walked back here, her breath holding.

In some places that had not been flooded with water, there was still some hay, and Guan Ping lit it with a fire breaker, and the hole became much brighter than before, and then he quickly took off his coat, and inserted the scabbard and handle into the inner walls on both sides, and made a roof for the time being, and he sat on the haystack wearing only his middle coat.

He beckoned to Sheng Mingzhu again, "Sit down and block a little." ”

Sheng Mingzhu shook his head, "I'm not cold", and clasped his arms again, "Uncle Guan, when can we go out." ”

Guan Ping smiled, "In a while, those guards should be here soon." ”

Sheng Mingzhu relaxed slightly, and hurriedly turned his head and said, "Come over and bake the fire, and you can go out when the clothes are dry." ”

really didn't resist the temptation, Sheng Mingzhu walked over slowly, a little farther away from her uncle, there was such a big place left and right, she could bake the fire wherever she sitted, twisted the water on her sleeve again, and stretched out her arm.

After a long time, he didn't move.

Sheng Mingzhu felt a little relieved, and continued to bake his clothes.

Guan Ping was silent, but the afterglow was looking at her, the collar of her riding suit was slightly open, and the clothes on her chest were wet, undulating from breathing. The closed dark place will always make people think about it, especially the ambiguous time when men and women are alone, Guan Ping stared at the tender green arms exposed in that section, and his breathing was much heavier than before.

Sheng Mingzhu's hand trembled, almost burning herself.

Guan Ping walked over, "What's wrong?" ”

She took two more steps back, "It's okay, it's okay." ”

Guan Ping didn't move, "Sheng Mingzhu, what are you afraid of." ”

He looked at her dark eyes, Sheng Mingzhu avoided him, hesitantly, no. Guan Ping had already come over, just such a big place, she didn't react, he supported it with half a hand, and wanted to press it down, Sheng Mingzhu hurriedly stretched out his hand, but he grabbed it and pressed it on his chest, it was cold, but he jumped fast.

"I like you, can't you see it?"

No matter what her personality is, Sheng Mingzhu feels that she is a beauty big or small, and there are many people who have courted her. But in fact, Guan Ping is different in her heart - just like a high-ranking immortal, an elder, once fell into the mortal world, she can't accept it, just like a monk who has attained the Tao and married a layman.

"Uncle Guan, I ......" is still young.

Sheng Mingzhu wanted to refuse him in the most tactful way, but Guan Ping landed on her buttocks with one hand, and quickly hugged the person into his arms, and he sat where she was sitting just now, Sheng Mingzhu exclaimed slightly, and when he reacted, the person was already half lying on him, he held her hand and did not allow her to move,

"I will propose to your father, and you will marry me."

"But I don't want to marry you."

Sheng Mingzhu couldn't do it, and there was a little anger in his eyes. Guan Ping only looked at her, in the end, he was Guan Ping, and he would not show a depressed look if his courtship was rejected - marrying a wife is not a matter that a daughter's family can decide, Guan Ping thought so, so he smiled, but there was no half a smile in his eyes.

Sheng Mingzhu's waist was pinched very painfully, and she didn't dare to speak anymore.

Fortunately, those guards were already away from Guan Ping, and they only arrived in about a quarter of an hour. Guan Ping was also different from before, cold and indifferent, as if he hadn't spoken to her, Sheng Mingzhu also hoped that he would not talk to her, and was soon sent back to Sheng Mansion by the guards.

——

Liu Feichi's broken leg kept saying that she only came back in the middle of the night, covered in wet clothes, Yun Niang was naturally very distressed, and after sending the guards away, she hurriedly asked Jin Zhi to bathe in hot water, and asked Huang's mother to boil ginger soup, although her daughter's body bones are good and there is no typhoid fever, she has been drenched in rain for so long, so be prepared.

The hot water dispelled the exhaustion all over his body, Sheng Mingzhu was lying on the edge, his body was hot, but his head hurt.

"Miss, what's on your waist?" Jin Zhi was originally smearing something on her back, but found a bruise, as if someone had caught it, and rubbed it again, "You got into a fight with someone today?" ”
