Chapter Twenty-Eight: Leaving the Palace to Catch the Market
Hanchen replied calmly, "No, it's just that I don't knock on your door, other people's doors will still knock." ”
Xiao Zhao'er glared at him angrily, "Why, am I a girl?" ”
Hanchen's gaze swept over her tightly protected chest, and he held his chin and looked at it, "It doesn't look like it at the moment." ”
This is really an uncle who can bear it, and an aunt can't bear it.
Xiao Zhao'er picked up a pillow and threw it at him, Han Chen turned to one side slightly, easily dodged it, and then shook his head and sighed, "It's really a favor to take revenge, in vain I was worried that you were suffocated in the palace, so I came here to take you out to play, but I was treated like this." ”
"Hanging out? Where are you going? Xiao Zhao'er forgot to be angry for a moment and asked curiously.
Hanchen saw that the anger in her big round eyes had been replaced by expectation, and he was a little amused for a while, but his heart became extremely soft because of this slightly childish look.
He smiled and said, "Go to the market." Today is the Flower Festival, a big festival of the demon people, and now it's even more lively outside than the Streamer Day. ”
"Hurry up to the market," Xiao Zhao'er immediately made a decision after her eyes rolled around, "Forget it, I still want to sleep." ”
Hanchen raised his eyebrows and looked at her, "It's a rare opportunity, don't you want to go out and relax?" ”
Xiao Zhao'er shook her head while lying back in the warm quilt, "I think sleeping is the best relaxation." ”
"It's a waste to lie in bed on such a good day." Hanchen got out of bed, walked to the closet, threw her clothes over, and then said leisurely as she walked out the door, "Give you time to stick incense, I'll wait for you outside the door." If you don't come out when the time comes, Benjun will come in personally to help you change your clothes. ”
Behind him, Xiao Zhao'er sat up angrily, biting the back of the horn and glaring at him angrily, "What are you afraid that I'm bored, in fact, you want to go out to play, right?" ”
Hanchen paused, turned around, and gave her a 'you truth' look, and then said with a smile, "Anyway, you are also the palace maid in charge of Benjun now, but you don't want to work, and you don't want to sleep, Benjun has no choice, so I have to find you an errand to accompany Benjun to go out to play, and I can block the mouth of Youyou for you, you have to be considerate of Benjun's good intentions." ”
Phew, forgive me for being a big-headed ghost!
Xiao Zhao'er made N grimaces at his back, and then reluctantly grabbed his clothes and changed them.
After cleaning up again, the two of them took a cloud car out of the Demon Palace together.
The street is really lively, it's just a sea of people. When Xiao Zhao'er and the others got down from the cloud car, they could hardly find a place to stay, and everyone was crowded. There are stalls, artists, food, paintings, and everything, but it is really like a gathering in the human world, but it is much more interesting than the assembly in the human world.
It was the first time for Xiao Zhao'er to celebrate the festival in the folk of the demon world, and she was infected by the joyful atmosphere, and she temporarily forgot about those annoying things.
Hanchen smiled helplessly, and while using his mana, he pushed away the crowded crowd around him without leaving a trace, and at the same time he had to follow her closely.
Xiao Zhaoer walked to a stall and was attracted by the artist who performed illusions, and applauded loudly with all her attention, but was accidentally squeezed down by a middle-aged female ghost holding a child next to her, and almost fell into the crowd.
Hanchen's eyes were quick, and he helped her, and after she stood firm, he quietly stretched out an arm to encircle her, and used his spiritual power to block the chaotic crowd for her.
Xiao Zhao'er didn't notice this, and even when others pushed her, she didn't care, and only focused on the few little brown monsters that the artist conjured.
The crowd erupted in applause, and the applause was endless. Xiao Zhao'er also giggled, and her voice fell in Hanchen's ears, as pleasant as a clear spring.
In the midst of the hustle and bustle, Hanchen looked down at the girl in his arms. The sunlight rendered her silhouette, and her eyes became more and more sparkling. Her facial features seem to be carefully carved by God, and she looks exquisite, especially the eyes that can speak, big, always shining with a clear light like a stream, like a high-quality Hetian jade, inlaid on the heart-shaped face, beautiful and exquisite, but charming to the heart.
Hanchen looked at her so steadily, his gaze unconsciously becoming gentle.
After a while, Xiao Zhao'er remembered that there was another person beside her, turned her head to look, and saw that he was staring at herself.
Xiao Zhao'er asked curiously, "Is there anything on my face?" ”
Hanchen didn't answer, looked away casually, and said, "It's all illusions and acrobatics here, and it's actually not interesting to see too much." Why don't we go over there and take a look, there are a lot of people who come out to set up stalls today, and we may be able to find some treasures that we can't see on weekdays. ”
Xiao Zhao'er glanced at him approvingly and said, "Yes, the men who encourage women to go shopping are all good men." ”
Han Chen raised his eyebrows slightly, and then nodded: "Not only that, but I am also a good man who knows how to be diligent and thrifty, so don't expect me to help you settle the bill." ”
"......" Xiao Zhao'er glared at him and pouted angrily, "Anyway, I've been working undercover for you for so long, and so far, you haven't paid me a penny." Now you refuse to help me settle an account, don't you make your subordinates who work for you feel cold? Are you still worthy of being the Lord of the Demon Realm? ”
"Oh? Is it so serious? Hanchen hugged his shoulders and smiled, "Then I helped you settle the account, is it a wise monarch?" ”
"Not only to settle the bill, but also to treat her to a banquet for her hard-working subordinates." Xiao Zhao'er shook her head and said.
"Yes," Hanchen leaned closer to her and chuckled, "but you're mine after eating my stuff." ”
“…… Then you don't have to treat it. ”
The two walked into a jewelry store while talking, and the shopkeeper looked at these two people with extraordinary looks and extraordinary bearings, and knew at a glance that they were not ordinary people, and they were busy receiving introductions.
Xiao Zhaoer was very arrogant, and directly asked the store to put out all the treasures of the town store for her to choose. The shopkeeper is happy to count the treasures of the baby, from its historical value to the humanistic value, and to the collection value, straight to the mouth dry, according to the east and the west to see, but has been lacking in interest.
Hanchen looked at it for a while, picked up a jade pendant, and handed it to Xiao Zhao'er.
"This piece of Lantian jade is good, didn't you say last time that the hairpin pendant of your favorite blue water hairpin was accidentally broken. This piece of jade looks very pure, and it also matches the color of your hairpin, so you should look good when you wear it. ”
Xiao Zhao'er didn't reach out to pick it up, shook her head and said, "Lantian is gentle, soft and light-loving; Clear water is cold, likes yin and avoids yang. No matter how similar the color and texture are, different things are still different, and when they barely come together, they are just tangible and unrhymed, and they are just a drag on each other. ”
Han Chen smiled when he heard this, "This is as if you have studied these jade ornaments very well." I haven't asked you about your origin, could it be that when you were in the human world, which emperor and general were the daughters of the family? ”
Xiao Zhao'er blinked her eyes and said in a serious whisper: "The Demon Venerable is too elevated, don't say that I am not a princess, even if it is, which human race dares to assert his identity in front of the Demon Realm Venerable?" ”
Hanchen laughed, but didn't ask any more.
"Well, what do you think of this?" After a while, Zhao'er suddenly called him.
Hanchen walked over slowly and saw that she was playing with a string of cinnabar bracelets in her hand. After taking a closer look, the texture on it was very delicate and the texture was also very good, so I couldn't help but nod and asked, "Do you like cinnabar?" ”
Xiao Zhao'er chuckled: "Hmm." Cinnabar is used to ward off evil spirits, and to ward off evil spirits. I used to be afraid of ghosts, but when I was in the human world, I liked cinnabar the most. ”
“…… But now you're a ghost. Hanchen said speechlessly.
Xiao Zhao'er pursed her lips, "You don't understand, a girl's preference for jewelry will not change with the change of her identity." Especially for a single-minded girl like me, since she believes that cinnabar is my mascot, she won't change her mind easily. ”
"Cinnabar is not a mascot, isn't there a saying in the human world that 'red face is thin', it is because those beauties like to order some cinnabar moles and the like, they will die young." The corners of Hanchen's mouth hooked slightly and said, "You died early in the human world, maybe it's because you wore too much cinnabar." ”
