Chapter Thirty-Six: Kite Strings
That morning, Xingchen was quite keenly aware of the smell of blood spreading in the air, and she hurried to the unstained side courtyard, but the courtyard was empty.
What's going on.
She forcibly suppressed her somewhat flustered thoughts, and searched the small side courtyard back and forth, and even searched the courtyard where Fengmian and Xiao Shi lived.
Still can't find it.
It was as if he had disappeared out of thin air, under everyone's noses, and just disappeared.
In a trance, Xingchen wondered for a moment whether she was dreaming, and she hadn't woken up from the dream yet, was she ...... To go back and go back to sleep.
"Princess." Feng Mian frowned and shouted.
Xingchen was in a trance, and he raised his feet to go back to his courtyard.
"Standing."
Although he had tried his best to suppress it, he could still hear the anger in his voice.
Xingchen looked back at him, looking a little confused.
Feng Mian took a deep breath, stepped forward, and poured a cup of yesterday's cold tea on her face.
Xingchen shuddered violently, but his head cleared slightly, and he saw Feng Mian holding a cup in one hand and the long sword he had never used in the other, looking at her with frowns.
"I ......"
She wanted to explain something, and then she realized that the person in front of her was not a very reliable person, so she shut up again, sorted out her thoughts, and spoke.
"Can you ...... Help me find out if it's not stained. ”
Wind sleeps and eyes falls.
"I can't."
"Why?" Xingchen's hands turned red, she probably knew what was going to happen today, but she didn't have any power to control it. If she didn't really have an accident at this time, she really didn't dare to think about it......
Fengmian looked up and glanced at her.
"For today I will protect you." After speaking, he stopped talking nonsense, just stretched out his hand and dragged Xingchen to his side, and then whispered: "The third prince is here today, you know, and I know it." ”
Xingchen's body shook.
"What...... What the! ”
Her plan ...... Does he know it all?
Or does he know all this from the beginning, step by step, to what he is now?
With a white face, she glanced at Fengmian, who was close at hand, still with ordinary facial features and deep and incomprehensible eyes, but at this moment, it made Xingchen feel a little palpitating.
There are also some inevitable fears.
She subconsciously took a step back, her voice trembling a little.
"You know everything?"
Feng Mian's eyes drooped, not knowing what he was thinking, and after a while, he raised his head to meet the eyes of the stars, and admitted quite calmly. "yes." Then seeing Xingchen's face of surprise, he added with some surprise: "I thought I knew what I knew." ”
Xingchen took a breath and almost suffocated himself.
Then in three or two steps, he walked to the table where Feng Mian had just splashed his water, took a cup of the same cold tea, and poured himself in. After calming down a little, she spoke: "Then do you know where Buzhi went?" ”
Feng Mian sighed, with a rare look of unbearability in his eyes.
"If I say he went on his own, will you believe it?"
Xingchen didn't answer, waiting for him to continue.
Feng Mian was as good as a stream, and continued: "Do you remember when we first met, he kept saying that he wanted to talk to me? He, he knew what you wanted to do then, the Empress had already told him all this, but ......" he paused.
"Actually, you should also know, what kind of person the empress is, you are guilty, even if you give her all the trays, she can't really set you free." He glanced at Xingchen, and felt that what he was going to say next might be a little cruel for such an unworldly girl, so he considered the words a little.
However, before he could think about it, the woman sneered first.
"She wants to keep the indigo in the inner city as a kite string, right?"
Feng Mian nodded, silently approving her brain in her heart.
After receiving his affirmation, Xingchen laughed dryly twice, raised his eyes and glanced at Feng Mian, with some mockery in his eyes:
"Do you think I'm like a fool?"
"Being teased and manipulated, but being caught in a pre-set situation that has been set up and having to continue."
Feng Mian understood what she was talking about, and she couldn't bear it in her heart, but she could only sigh slightly, but her mouth was not a comforting tone: "This time you succeeded, you at least have a chance, if you fail, you know the result." ”
"Of course I do."
Xingchen replied in a deep voice.
I don't know if it's Fengmian's illusion, but at a certain moment just now, the person in front of him seemed to have changed a little.
