Chapter 112: Private Destiny (2)

The prince stood with his hands in his hands, looked at him with a very indifferent expression, and did not pick him up.

"What is Lord Xiao's crime?"

"Weichen and Miss Song didn't get acquainted in the Taifu Mansion, and Miss Song was not a distant relative of King Chengwu and Master Pei."

The prince had begun to doubt Song Ran's identity and had a strong interest in her, he didn't know where the prince's interest in her came from, but he was keenly aware that the prince's eyes on her were not pure.

If the prince goes to investigate, sooner or later he will know that she has nothing to do with the Pei family and King Chengwu.

He should have let people look at her every inch today, and not give her a chance to meet the prince, but now, everything is too late.

"Your Royal Highness, when Weichen was in Yaozhou, she had a private agreement with Miss Song for life, only because of various reasons, she couldn't be with her, she hid from her parents and followed Weichen to Ling'an. Weichen didn't know how she got acquainted with King Chengwu, but the prince took her to the flower banquet, and he was afraid that he felt that people's words were terrifying, so he casually made up an identity for her. Please also ask Your Highness to look at Wei Chen's face and don't blame her. Wechen will send her back to Yaozhou at a later date and hand her over to her parents......"

He put the identity of the real "Song Ran" on her, wanting to dispel the prince's exploration of her, which is the only thing he can do for her now.

"It seems that she is very important to Lord Xiao if she can personally expose her shortcomings and protect her in her own name."

The prince sat down in the carriage and said, "There is a male pet by Shen Hanxi's side, who is very similar to Miss Song, if they are put together, I am afraid that people will mistake them for a pair of twin brothers and sisters." After that, he chuckled again, "Twin brothers and sisters, I'm afraid they are not so similar." ”

Xiao Yan's shoulders trembled, and when he looked up, the curtain of the carriage had been lowered, hiding the prince's expression behind him.

Watching the carriage drive out of the alley, the man's expression slowly became solemn.

Back in Yuzhu Xuan, Song Ran was in a daze at the bamboo leaves in the courtyard, and the fat cat named Hua Nu rubbed around her feet twice, and when she saw that she ignored herself, she simply sat in front of her and meowed twice.

Then she crouched down and asked, "But are you hungry?" ”

Picked it up and prepared to take it to find fish to eat, but when he turned around, he saw the man in the moon white robe stopped behind him.

Xiao Yan stepped forward and touched the head of the fat cat in her arms, and the movements were extremely natural and intimate.

Song Ran observed his expression for a moment, and didn't see any clues, so he had to ask, "Your Highness, is he suspicious?" ”

Xiao Yan stretched out his fingers, calmly teased the cat in her arms, and said lightly: "Do you know that the prince was a famous prodigy when he was young, and he wrote down the books that others might not be able to memorize after reading them a hundred times, but he memorized them after reading them two or three times, which is unforgettable." It was only after the accession to the throne that he slowly 'mediocre'. However, his 'being out of the crowd' is a way of self-preservation, do you really think he is another 'Fang Zhongyong'? ”

The fat cat in his arms finally grabbed his fingers, held them in his mouth and nibbled lightly, but it was just a playful nature, and it was not really forceful.

His gaze fell on her somewhat stunned face, and said, "If Miss Mo doesn't want to have any more branches, she will listen to me, cut off contact with Shen Hanxi, and leave the capital as soon as possible." ”

Her expression froze, her eyes gradually turned cold, with a hint of anger: "Lord Xiao is staring at me in secret? ”

His expression did not change at all: "I'm not the only one who is secretly staring at you." Someone sent the real 'Song girl' to the Criminal Department and handed it over to me to settle down, if I hadn't suppressed this matter, how long do you think you could stay in the capital peacefully? ”

Song Ran felt a chill in his back at his words, and asked him with his eyebrows: "Is it Brother Xie Qi?" ”

He was noncommittal and said, "There are some things that you better not know. This pool of water in Ling'an City is much deeper than you think. Shen Hanxi seems to be very beautiful now, but how long can this scenery last? ”

He didn't talk to her in depth, and he had the meaning of avoiding the important and trivializing: "It's time to set up a meal, let's eat first." ”

Song Ran didn't move, and a faint smile appeared on his lips: "If Lord Xiao thinks that without your help, it will be difficult for me to settle down, and it will be too disdainful." Reluctantly handed the cat to him, "You don't want me to get to the bottom of it, I'm tired of these conspiracies and calculations, Brother Xie has saved my life, and what I did for him is enough to repay." In the future, none of you will arrange my life. ”

She raised her eyes, her eyes dark and quiet: "The world is so big, where can't I go without Ling'an City?" ”

These days, she just needs to make up her mind, a determination to get out.

He looked at her for a long time before reaching out and taking the cat into his arms, and said nothing more.

She is not a flower raised in the depths of the boudoir, which can be destroyed by a random gust of wind and rain, even if there is no sunshine and rain and dew, she can live well. He had not been able to protect her as her grandfather had hoped, and he would not have the qualifications to do so.

He carried the tanuki slave to the carriage, and suddenly spoke: "There is one thing, Miss Mo may have misunderstood. ”

The man stood there gently, and the lantern under the eaves fell on his face, dyeing the corners of his eyebrows and eyes with a layer of warmth: "The Shangyuan Festival is the death day of the ancestors, and every year's lantern festival is spent in the mourning hall, so there is probably someone else who has missed Miss Mo for so many years." ”

His words made Song Ran hold his breath.

After a long time, she regained her ability to speak, and her breath was a little messy, and even Shicai didn't see her so at a loss in front of the prince.

"But why is the handkerchief I gave him in your hand?"

Xiao Yan was dazed for a moment, remembering the handkerchief wrapped in a jade pendant, his eyebrows jumped, and he only heard her explanation in his ears: "When you went out on an outing with Shaoyuan, Shaoyuan hurt his hand by playing, and you bandaged him with that handkerchief, have you forgotten?" ”

Listening to her talk like this, he had some impressions, but after all, his memory had been blurred after a long time.

Xiao Yan shook his head helplessly, and said, "It's been too long, and I can't remember it clearly." ”

She was a little distracted, and muttered: "That brother and you should be Zhou Shibo's protΓ©gΓ©, the handkerchief that should have been in his hand will be in your hand, you and he must know each other, can you please ......?"

She stopped abruptly at this point, and her eyes, which were originally full of anticipation, quickly dimmed.

Her eyelashes drooped, and she made up her mind, "That's it." ”

More than ten years have passed, and if you count the age, the other party should have already married a wife and had children. Even if she did find out who he was, what was the point?

Originally, her obsession with him was a little ridiculous, but it was just a one-sided relationship, so why did she have to find him from this vast world?

What if you find him?

She only felt that her heart was empty, as if someone had dug out a piece.

was a little sad, suddenly heavy in her arms, she lowered her eyes, and saw the fat cat in Xiao Yan's arms looking at herself with glass-like eyes: "Meow." He rubbed his head against her hand and said, "Meow." ”

Her expression softened and said, "Is the little raccoon slave comforting me?" After a few handfuls on it, he said, "If you want to go with me, Lord Xiao doesn't agree, follow me, and there is no fish for you to eat." ”

It found a comfortable position on her lap, closed its eyes and snored.

Song Ran raised his eyes to look at Xiao Yan, only to see him raise one eyebrow, and finally sighed helplessly: "It's really a little thing without conscience, since the heart is not here, then let's go with Miss Mo." ”

In the carriage home, Song Ran gently smoothed the cat's fur with his hand, and his expression was silent.

I'm afraid she has to plan for the future.

The carriage suddenly braked, interrupting her thoughts, she lifted the curtain to check the situation outside, but saw a young man in brocade clothes driving the servants of the Xiao Mansion out of the carriage, sitting on the seat of the carriage, and said to her: "Miss Song, offended." ”

Her eyes sank, and she asked him what he wanted to do, and the other party drove forward, and only said, "Your Excellency, please." ”

The adult in his mouth, she naturally knows who it is. He is the only one who acts so roughly.

Her fingers slowly clenched in her sleeves.

It was dinner time, the restaurants on the street were noisy and lively, Shen Hanxi sat at the table when they met for the first time, raised his eyes to look at her, and looked a little unkind: "Not yet." ”

She sat down in front of him, listened to him lazily ask the guy for a few snacks, and turned to herself: "What do you want to eat?" ”

"Let's make a ravioli." While waiting for the meal, I couldn't help but ask, "Have you always sent someone to keep an eye on me?" ”

"I didn't stare at you, I didn't know that you would take the initiative to run to see Xiao Yan. Miss Song, you are really good, and you have forgotten the pain. ”

Xiao Yan treated her like that, she even took the initiative to run to him, he got the news today, and he couldn't wait to rush to the Xiao Mansion to take her out, if it wasn't for the fear that the relationship between them would deteriorate even more, he wouldn't put up with this thought.

She stayed in the Xiao Mansion all day, and he was also tormented by this anxious emotion all day.

She knew that he was talking about the fact that she was divorced by Xiao Yan, so she smiled slowly and said, "Many things are like people drinking water, and they know their own warmth and coldness." The scar in the eyes of adults may not hurt for a long time. And those innocuous little things in the eyes of adults may be the most hurtful. ”

When she said this, her expression was a little cold, and she looked at the guy at the restaurant and put down the wonton she wanted, and said frankly: "My lord sent someone to stare at me, I don't like it." As he spoke, he picked up the spoon and brought it to his lips and blew the wonton soup. The clean eyebrows and eyes are stained with a trace of fireworks, which is touching for no reason.

He looked at her eating, suppressed the vacillation and reluctance in his heart, and tried his best to make it seem light: "This official has a secret mansion in Suzhou, and in a few days, let Xia Xiaoqiu take you to Suzhou." ”

She held the spoon in her hand for a moment, did not look up, and asked him: "After arriving in Suzhou, will I wait for the adults to come over in the house prepared for me?" If you don't come for a year, I'll wait for a year, and if you don't come for two years, I'll wait for two years? Like a bird in a cage. ”

His voice naturally has a cold and lofty texture: "Why does this official want you to be a caged bird, but there are some things that can't be both, so you can only retreat to the second." ”

She raised her beautiful eyes, and there was a hint of mockery at the bottom of her pupils: "Are you temporarily wronging me again?" ”

He coaxed her patiently: "Miss Song, the situation that this official is facing now is like a mist of flowers, and I really don't have the extra energy to take care of you." If you stay in the capital, you will only distract the officials. The official in Suzhou will take care of everything and will not wronged you. ”

She didn't answer, and continued to eat the wontons until the bottom of the bowl was at the bottom, and she spit out a sentence with difficulty: "My lord never asks me if I want to make your arrangement." ”

She had considered leaving Ling'an City, a place of right and wrong, and would no longer be at the mercy of anyone, but as soon as she saw him, she had only one thought.

She didn't want to wait for someone who might not have come, as she had done so many years ago.

"Can't you marry me?"

This sentence stopped in her throat, and she was about to rush out, but she swallowed it back into her stomach.

If he could marry her, he wouldn't be in such a hurry to send her away.

She called the guy in the restaurant and said, "Little Er, do you have any wine, you want the strongest wine." ”

Xiao Er quickly came up with a pot of wine, Song Ran poured a glass and pushed it to Shen Hanxi, and poured another one for himself, without saying anything, he raised his sleeve and drank it all. The liquor ran down her throat and into her belly, so hot that she almost burst into tears, but she had no intention of stopping.

After drinking several glasses in a row, Shen Hanxi finally couldn't stand it, his slender fingers snatched the wine jug, and he said coldly: "You have injuries on your body, you shouldn't drink more." ”

Her eyes were foggy, and there seemed to be a piece of water at the bottom of her pupils, but there was a clear smile at the corner of her lips: "Adults drink for me." ”

A touch of blush appeared on her fair face, and in his eyes, she looked like a pretty girl.

He poured himself a full cup and raised the cup to his lips.

She folded her hands and watched his throat roll as she swallowed the drink. The person in front of him has a good skin that is rare in the world, not as warm and jade as Xiao Yan, but with great aggression.

If she continues to like him, maybe one day, she will be "gone".

The sudden thought made her frightened.

She stood up suddenly and staggered towards the street outside, Shen Hanxi's eyes sank, and she hurriedly got up and chased after her.

Xiao Er shouted at the top of his voice: "The guest officer hasn't paid the money yet?" ”

A man in a black brocade coat stepped forward, put down the money on the table, and looked at him coldly. He was so frightened that he didn't dare to move forward, and when the other party left, he carefully put away the money, but he scolded in his heart: "Jinyilang." ”
