Chapter 055: Why is he slightly drunk
"Miss Chen, has you just seen your father?" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's voice rang out, still clear and moving, like a spring breeze blowing in his ears.
Chen Ying lowered her head and replied, "Yes, Your Highness." His Majesty summoned and rewarded him with something. β
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sighed, turned to the person behind him and said with a smile: "This is the person you are looking for." β
Chen Ying couldn't help but feel a little strange, and was thinking about who the prince was talking to, when she suddenly bumped into her ears with a mellow voice.
"It turns out that this is 'that' Miss Chen San, disrespectful." The man said.
Chen Ying's heart beat violently suddenly, as if he had been hit by this voice.
If the sound can also be eaten, this voice can undoubtedly be used as wine, and drinking it will make people drunk.
Chen Ying tried to hold his mind, and a trace of surprise crossed his lowered face.
The sound was so familiar.
However, the men she had seen since she was a child were extremely limited, and this should be the first time she had heard a voice.
Where does this inexplicable feeling of familiarity come from?
"This is Commander Pei, and he's checking the origin of the assassin."
His Royal Highness the Prince's voice sounded again, like the sound of an empty valley, which immediately made Chen Ying withdraw from that strange emotion.
She bowed.
The throat seemed to be blocked with a ball of cotton, soreness and choking, and he couldn't speak for a while.
At this moment, she was extremely grateful for the complicated etiquette of time and space, which gave her a reason not to speak.
Sure enough, for Chen Ying's silence, neither the prince nor the Pei commander cared about it.
Girls are usually very shy, especially when they suddenly see a strange man, they will be shy and unspeakable. Everyone, including the two of them, thought so.
"In Xia Pei Shu, Miss Chen San is polite." The intoxicating voice sounded a second time, and the smell was almost slightly drunk.
This time, Chen Ying finally regained her senses when she was lost.
The pounding heartbeat quickly stopped, the breathing became more relaxed, and the blockage in the throat disappeared.
She slowly looked up, her gaze swept behind the prince, and she saw a man who was half a head taller than the prince.
A quick glance.
Because it was against the light, Chen Ying's vision was dark, and when she lowered her head again, she only remembered the eye-catching and tall nose bridge of the other party.
"Since it was a chance encounter, I would like to ask Miss Chen San, do you still remember the situation when the assassin made his move?" Pei Shu opened his mouth for the third time.
The prince didn't stop him, and even cast his focused gaze on Chen Ying.
Chen Ying immediately had two judgments:
Pei Shu should have a very good relationship with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Second, Pei Shu is a very pragmatic person, even to the point of being pragmatic regardless of the occasion.
"Assassin...... With the right hand, the thumb is facing forward when holding the knife, the posture is a little weird, and the knife is out of the forehand. Chen Ying recalled the situation as much as he could, and the thin figure of the assassin appeared in his mind.
After three lifetimes, it was the first time she had seen a so-called assassin, and frankly, she was disappointed.
It is neither high nor high, nor does it exist to be ten with one, and it has never been as elusive as described in martial arts. From any point of view, the assassin was just an ordinary human who was quicker and more decisive than ordinary people. And its fragility in front of the arrow array made Chen Ying lose his jaw even more.
She once thought that this assassin was not very skilled, and even the snacks she threw could distort the opponent's sword momentum, until she heard the guards of the Five Guards say that the little palace maid was good, Chen Ying finally understood that the heroes of this time and space were fundamentally different from those she saw in film and television works.
Although there is a big gap, Chen Ying still feels that real martial arts should be like this. As for the supernatural phenomena that are miraculous and contrary to scientific principles, they are nothing more than exaggerated expressions of art.
"Anything else?" Pei Shu's voice rang out again, pulling Chen Ying's mind back.
She pondered for a moment, then shook her head, "I'm sorry, but I didn't pay full attention to the assassin at that time, so that's all I observed. β
Pei Shu didn't speak, and nodded to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
The prince smiled and said, "Third Miss Chen, forgive me, because the information provided by the Fifth Guard Army is limited, Commander Pei asked a few more questions. β
"Your Highness is too polite." Chen Ying said solemnly, "After all, this matter is important, and the courtiers have the obligation to provide all the information they know to the court, which is what the courtiers should do." β
I didn't expect her to be able to speak so formally, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was a little surprised when he heard this, and then smiled warmly: "Third Miss Chen can think like this, that's the best." After saying that, he nodded to Sun Chaoli: "Manager Sun, send Miss Chen San out." β
Sun Chaoli bowed, and the prince left with Pei Shu and his party, looking at the direction they were traveling, they should be going to Xuande Palace.
Taking the opportunity to turn around, Chen Ying involuntarily glanced behind him again.
Except for the crown prince, this group of people were all wearing guard python robes, but that Pei Shu was wearing a Xuanqing straight robe, tied with a big red leather belt, and had no crown or hat on his hair, only with a hosta.
It is neither the color of the civil submission nor the dress of the military attachΓ©.
Even though this nondescript outfit is not ugly for him to wear, however, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince clearly called him a commander, then he has an official position.
How could an official of the imperial court dress like this to face the saint? Could it be that this Pei Shu not only has a good relationship with His Royal Highness the Prince, but Emperor Yuan Jia also looks at him differently?
These thoughts swirled in Chen Ying's heart, and she didn't care much about the next things, until she heard Luo's mother say "arrived", she realized that she was sitting in the carriage, and outside the window was the green wall and the red door, and the shadows of the trees, but it turned out that she had already arrived at the Guogong Mansion.
Stop and get on the sedan chair, and then get off the sedan chair and walk, the willow trees in front of the weeping flower door are lined up, and unsurprisingly, under the thick shade, Xu's gentle smiling face appeared in front of Chen Ying's eyes.
"It's back, so fast." She beckoned to Chen Ying in the shade of the tree, and the smile on her face was soft and quiet.
Chen Ying took Luo's mother's hand and saluted and asked, "Why is the eldest aunt staying here?" Are you waiting for your niece? β
Xu Shi laughed and said, "Isn't it? Your grandfather was in a hurry, so he let me out to take a look. As she spoke, she stared at Chen Ying's face carefully for a while, and said softly: "Look at you like this, I think things are going very well, right?" β
This is a matter of asking the Holy Divine to give a promise.
Chen Ying showed her usual smile, but she didn't say anything.
Xu Shi also knew that he was a little anxious to ask, so he smiled warmly and said slightly apologetically: "Look at me, I'll ask at this time, don't blame the eldest aunt for being anxious." β
"The eldest aunt is serious." Chen Ying's voice was very polite: "My niece also wants to thank my aunt for her concern." β
