Chapter 10: Confinement
Chapter 10 Introduction
In the mountains and forests of Yangcheng, a handsome man in white stood alone on the bluestone with a jade flute in his hand, looking at the city below the mountain.
He smiled quietly and blew the jade flute in his hand.
A fresh and elegant song wafted in the forest area.
As soon as the song fell, a person walked behind him.
The man saluted the man in white and said, "Master Hou, Miss Gao is in the Yangcheng Inn."
The man in white stood upright, without turning his head, still looking down the mountain, but answered him lightly, "Hmm." ”
Cheng You continued respectfully: "The eldest young master of the Gao family is also looking for Yangcheng at this time."
Only then did the man in white turn around, his face cold and expressionless.
"She is the daughter of Gaofu, so she should go home early."
Cheng You said: "However, that girl seems to have lost her memory, can she still know her family?"
The man in white sneered, "Isn't there still her eldest brother, Gao Shouwen will definitely tell her." ”
"But she is now with the emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and the emperor has always taken her with him, and the ministers can't get close to her."
The man in white waved his hand lightly, turned his head to look down the mountain again, "It's okay, even if we are together at this time, we may not be together every day."
The corners of his good-looking mouth rose slightly, and he smiled faintly.

Yuan Gongzi and I were in the dining room, but at this time, Gongyi's voice came from outside the door: "Is it convenient for the Lord to meet, Gongyi has something important to say." ”
I paused and glanced at Yuan Gongzi with chopsticks, and saw that he was biting the food in his mouth, a little impatient, as if his entourage had disturbed him.
But after a moment, he put down his chopsticks and said to the door, "Come in."
The door slowly parted, and Gongyi walked in, he looked at me, and wanted to stop me from hearing something, so he bit a few words in Yuan Gongzi's ear.
After hearing this, Yuan Gongzi turned around and said to me: "It's late, rest early, I have something to do, go out."
I smiled at him and said, "Okay."
I wish he wasn't in front of me, and I always felt uncomfortable.
The night had fallen, but I could not sleep, leaning against the window, looking through the night at the street in the dark of the city.
It was late at night, but the moonlight was excellent, and the stars were shining.
On the side of the street, there is a stall selling dumplings overnight, and there are few pedestrians sitting and eating at night.
From a distance, I saw the guest officer eating supper, dressed in white with long hair, wearing a jade flute around his waist, which shone slightly in the moonlight.
He was facing me, but he couldn't see his face.
He was drinking there, and he felt very lonely.
But I seem to have seen that vague shadow before......
After looking up at the night sky, I lay down in bed.
In the blur of the night, I felt like I was in a dream, dreaming that someone was at my bedside and calling me softly.
In my dream, I couldn't see his figure very clearly, but he was shouting at me, "Hu'er-Zhu'er-"
I don't understand, why this shadow always calls me "Huan'er", is my name called "Huan'er"?
I tried to open my eyes hard to see who he was, but I couldn't see clearly.
Who the hell is he?
When I woke up, it was getting dark, and I was still lying on the bed in the inn.
I thought back to the dream I had, and the person in the dream, dressed in white, looked vague.
I felt his silhouette resemble the wicked man I dreamed of in the valley, but last night he didn't look very clear.
I don't understand why this person is so often in my dreams.
When I got out of bed, I stopped thinking about it.
The guys at the inn brought in water for washing and brought in breakfast.
I didn't want to eat and was about to go downstairs. I walked to the door and opened it, only to find two people standing outside the door.
I looked at their attire, and I knew that they should be Yuan Gongzi's people.
Before I could go out, the two men saluted me and said, "Girl, please go back to your room, so that you can rest, the Lord has explained, the girl's feet have not healed, and she cannot move around at will."
I was confused, this was to force me in the room.
What the hell does Yuan Gongzi want to do!
I sneered at them, "I'm going out for a walk!" ”
They stood straight at the doorway to block me, looking indifferent.
I sank my face and walked back to my room.
The two men slammed the door shut.
I sat at the table in exasperation.
I haven't seen him for two days since Yuan Gongzi went out of my room that night. But as soon as I walked out of the room, one of his people followed me, and his man said to me, "The white girl's feet are not yet well, and my lord has explained that the girl can't run around."
They didn't allow me to leave the inn, I could only walk around the inn and the courtyard of the inn. I don't understand why I'm trapped like this and won't let me go out because I don't know him very well. Is it really for my foot injury? I don't like being watched like this, I always feel like I'm being watched and guarded, like I'm in prison.
As long as I wanted to walk out of the inn, those strong men would stop in front of me, without any expression, and said very seriously, "White girl, please go back!" ”
I'm angry, what's going on.
Although he saved me, he can't restrict my freedom in life like this!
In the inn, I was angry all the time, "Call your son, I want to see him!" ”
But no one answered me, and they all took what I said as air.
On the third day, I finally couldn't hold back anymore and was ready to leave regardless of their obstruction. Because the foot injury is almost better, it is not so swollen and painful.
As soon as I opened the door to my room, I hit a human wall head-on.
"Where are you going?" The man's deep voice came from overhead.
I raised my eyes in astonishment, and I saw a shallow ripple in my eyes.
"Yuan Gongzi." I cried out in amazement.
I don't know why he reappeared, probably because I was thinking about how to run away just now, and I was so startled by him that I didn't stand firmly, and my body was about to tilt down, but he grabbed me, and half of my body was in his arms.
Ignoring my complicated expression, he picked me up again, put me directly on the side of the bed, glared at me and asked, "Are your feet alright?"
I was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly replied, "Okay."
"You want to get out?" He stared at me faintly.
I nodded busily.
"Yuan Gongzi, we are just people who met in Pingshui, I really thank you for taking care of me these days, now my feet are fine, I want to go, because I have other things to do." I looked at him with a sincere look in my eyes.
He picked up a stool and sat on the edge of my bed, looked at me face to face, seemed to care very much about what I said, and said leisurely, "Tell me, what are you going to do?"
The corners of my mouth twitched, and I felt that the man in front of me was managing too much, and I was a little unhappy.
But he waited for my answer with expectant eyes. After a long time, I whispered, "I'm going to find myself, I'm going to find my family."
My eyes were hollow, and my consciousness was distant, as if I was wandering away.
Suddenly his words came from the quiet room, "You want to find yourself?" ”
His words pulled me back from my mood.
I looked at him deeply and said, "Because I lost my memory, I don't know who I am, I have to get myself back."
He stood up and said slowly, "Come back to Pingcheng with me, I'll help you find it."
"No, I'll find it myself, my own background, I want to find it myself." When I said this, my expression was indifferent, and my mind was as transparent as glass.
I saw that he was silent, but he didn't nod.
I screamed, "Hey, are you letting me go!"
He stood up and coldly dropped a sentence, "No! ”
After that, he walked out of the door, still closing the door.
I became angry, "Yuan Gongzi, what the hell do you want to do!" ”
My words were like to the air, and he was already out.
I lay on the bed irritably, the quilt was lifted, and I didn't think about how I could meet such a person.
I wept sadly and felt that I had been greatly wronged.
When I buried my head in the quilt and cried, Yuan Gongzi's voice came from behind me, "Do you really want to go out?" ”
I jerked my head up and glared at him.
"What do you say?"
He pointed to the shirt he had brought from the bed at some point and said, "Change it and I'll take you out."
Can you really go out?
I couldn't believe it, for fear he would lie to me.
Seeing that I was still stunned, he said again: "Do you want to change it?"
"Okay." I said coldly.
As long as I can get out, it doesn't matter what he wants me to change, go out first.
