Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Truth and the False Face

The rain had not yet rained for the past few days, so at dusk it began to rain again in the sky, and the raindrops hit the plantains in the yard with a lonely sound.

Shen Run sat under the porch, looking at the bright tile lamp swaying in the wind and rain in the dark courtyard, but when it was not yet dark, because of the rain, the sky was as dark as late at night, desolate and cold.

A pair of cold hands blindfolded his eyes from behind, with a soft fragrance, which was now a taste he liked, he smiled, took the little hand in his hand, turned around, and reproached:

"Naughty!"

Morninglight grinned and sat down beside him.

"It's raining, why did you get out?" Shen Run asked with a smile.

"I heard that today is the death day of Concubine Duan, but there seems to be nothing prepared in the house."

"My father doesn't like extravagance, and he doesn't like the sacrifice to be too grand, so everything is simple every year."

Chenguang nodded.

"You're here for this?"

"It's also because of this, and because I can't sleep, I heard that you are in the house, so I came to look for you." Chenguang said with a smile.

"You're sleeping too much." Shen Run smiled, lifted the teapot, poured half of it into the teacup, and asked her, "Do you want to drink?" ”

Chenguang shook his head.

She doesn't drink tea or alcohol, it's not that she doesn't like it, but because her body can't adapt, and her refusal makes Shen Run worry about her illness again.

"I've wronged you these days." He lowered his eyes and whispered.

Chenguang was slightly stunned, looked at him for a moment, smiled and shook his head.

"You're such a girl who will make people like you." He took a sip of tea and whispered.

Chenguang glanced at him, deliberately ignored the word "will" that was accentuated, and asked happily with a simple expression:

"Xiao Yun likes me?"

"Like. I think there are few people like you who don't like a girl like you, who knows how to advance and retreat, has a gentle and understanding temperament, and can deal with anything with a smile. He looked at her, smiling, his eyes deepening, "So I sometimes wonder what you have experienced in the Phoenix Underworld that can make you learn to carefully observe words and colors and guess people's hearts in detail when you are still young." ”

Chenguang closed his lips, and after a while, bent his eyebrows, smiled innocently:

"What Xiao Yun said is so profound, I can't understand it at all."

"On the day of the flower feast, the hairpin I gave to you to my mother's concubine is the one you said you lost in the palace, and after returning home that night, I went to your room to find you, you were bathing, and when I was waiting for you, I saw the hairpin in your jewelry box that you said you lost." He looked at her with a calm expression and a calm voice, as if he were talking to her normally, and said softly, "Why did you lie that the hairpin was lost?" ”

Chenguang's face did not change, and he looked at him suspiciously with simple and innocent eyes, and said seriously:

"How come, Xiaorun, you are mistaken, that hairpin was lost in the palace, otherwise I wouldn't have asked Concubine Xia to find it. If it wasn't lost, how could the hairpin be in the hands of His Royal Highness the Prince? ”

Shen Run stared at her for a moment, curled his lips, and smiled with an unknown meaning.

"Really?" He said lightly, "I was wrong." ”

"Xiao Run, I didn't dare to tell you about Hua Hai's loss, why did you lie in Qiankun Palace that day and say that you know, and you also involved the Internal Affairs Office?"

"You are my princess, and I will not let people frame you." Shen Run replied with a smile.

"I thought it was because Xiao Yun hated the prince." Chenguang said with a smile.

Shen Run glanced at her, that look was not sharp, but the gentle but cold eyes matched with the corners of his lips that were shallowly hooked were not curved, which inevitably made people tremble.

Chenguang just smiled, and then she lowered her head.

The rain pounded on the eaves overhead, making a hollow sound, causing the already cold temperature to drop by a few degrees.

Shen Run suddenly put down the porcelain cup in his hand, turned his head and summoned Huiwen, the eldest girl of Muhuayuan, and told her to go and get a cloak to come over. Huiwen thought he was going to wear it, so she went into the back room and took out a white silk satin cloak embroidered with silver thread, and was about to put it on him, but Shen Run reached out and took it, and naturally draped the cloak on Chenguang's thin body and wrapped her tightly.

Chenguang was stunned for a moment, glanced at him, and pulled the cloak tight in accordance with his movements. His clothes have his own taste, plain and elegant, like lotus and orchid.

"Xiao Yun has a good smell." She sniffed his cloak like a puppy and smiled.

"Don't do that!" Shen Run flicked on her head and said that he couldn't stand her behavior the most, she always said that his body smelled good, and every time he heard her say this, he had a strange feeling, and felt that there was something wrong with her head.

Chenguang flattened his mouth unhappily and rubbed his head.

"It's been almost a year since you came to King Rong's mansion, plus the time and time on the road in the Feng Underworld Kingdom, you and I have been together for so long, you have never told me about you, but I have known everything big and small from birth to now."

"It's not clear, there are still many things I don't know, such as how old Xiao Run stopped wetting the bed."

"At what age do you stop wetting the bed?"

Chenguang's face froze, smiled, and did not speak.

"You grew up in the Holy Son Mountain, what do you do in the Holy Son Mountain?"

"Follow the goddess to learn divination and look at the stars." Chenguang replied with a frank smile.

Shen Run looked at her smile, from her smile, he couldn't see the slightest flaw, perfect smile, perfect smile, clear and pure, innocent, such a smile is too moving, even if it is more like an illusion, he will still be attracted.

Shen Run suddenly didn't know how to ask.

After sitting quietly for a while, Chenguang stood up and said with a smile, "It's time for me to go back to sleep." ”

As she spoke, she did not return her cloak to him, turned and walked to the steps of the porch, turned around, and suddenly smiled and asked:

"Xiao Run, if you die in three days, what will you do in these three days?"

Shen Run was stunned for a moment, she asked without a head, but it was rare for her to ask, he thought seriously for a moment, shook his head, and said with a smile:

"It's too short for me to think of."

"What about sixteen days?"

She actually asked.

Shen Run thought more seriously and replied with a smile:

"Probably find a good family for Qingyi, sixteen days is only enough to do this."

After a pause, he asked:

"What about you?"

Chenguang thought for a moment and said with a smile: "Let more people remember me." ”

This answer was unexpected, and Shen Run couldn't cry or laugh:

"Why do you want more people to remember you?"

"Probably because it's so sad for a person to die in obscurity."

Shen Run couldn't understand her thoughts.

"No matter how you say, you can't die alone in obscurity."

"Who knows what hasn't happened." Chenguang smiled deeply and said.

She walked down the steps, Huo Wu held up her umbrella, and the figures of the master and servant quickly disappeared into the wind and rain.

Her last smile made Shen Run uncomfortable, and he frowned.

"Pay the gift." After a while, he called.

Fu Li appeared quietly.

"Add more people, keep an eye on her, and send someone to the Phoenix Kingdom again, the matter of Princess Chenguang is no matter how detailed, and the more detailed the investigation, the better." He commanded softly.

I paid the courtesy.
