But I don't know what kind of past he has experienced that makes him so terrible......

"Try these pastries." Chengde changed the subject without a trace.

When Mo Tao heard this, he immediately smiled and took one piece and handed it to Chengde, and then divided two pieces and handed them to Chengdao and Xia Ye'er.

Xia Ye'er bit it gently, this pastry was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, sweet but not greasy, and said continuously: "It's really delicious." ”

As she spoke, she felt something pass by her face, and when she looked down, it was Chengde who wiped her mouth with his fingers.

"I patronized and ate it, but I didn't notice that there was powder sticking to this pastry!" Chengde said with a smile.

Xia Ye'er's heart was slightly touched, and this man's gentleness made her a little irresistible.

Mo Tao on the other side was taken aback, and then said: "Brother Ran, if it weren't for this handsome son, I would be really jealous." ”

Only then did the two of them realize that something was too much, and Xia Ye'er's face suddenly flushed, but she said, "Brother Ran is careful." I heard that you have known each other for a long time, and the princess is so delicate and cute, and my brother must love you very much. ”

"Not really!" The princess stood up and pouted: "Brother Chengde always comes and goes in a hurry, this time to visit the lake, if it weren't for the prince's consent to come, he must have to shirk it again!" ”

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has a heart, Xia Ye'er has a warm current in her heart, but she seems to be joking inadvertently, and said: "Brother Ran came and went in a hurry, I think it is to linger in the beautiful scenery of Longding County in this Great Chu State, and it must be a place that is more leisurely than the palace......"

"A place more leisurely than the palace......" Mo Tao lowered his head and thought for a long time, but he didn't come up with an answer, so he asked, "Where is that?" ”

"Have you ever heard of the Smoke Pavilion?" Xia Ye'er said.

Ximen Chengdao took over: "It's the Red Pavilion outside the palace...... It had been seized the day before yesterday, and now those women are being held in the cells of the Yuqing Palace. ”

"This palace is too big, it's like a labyrinth," Xia Ye'er said with a smile, "But I don't know where this Yuqing Palace is?" I'm really afraid that I will get lost all of a sudden, but I will end up in the dungeon. ”

"Right there!" Mo Tao smiled and pointed to a faintly exposed corner of bright gold not far away.

Suddenly, I only heard an oops, but she accidentally fell backwards, and she was about to fall into the lake, but the next moment she saw Xia Ye'er gently hold her back and fall back into the boat, while Xia Ye'er herself fell into the water.

Seeing this, Chengde jumped into the lake without hesitation and rescued her. Her clothes were soaked, her hair was pressed against her cheeks, and water droplets were falling down her hair.

She kept coughing, probably because she had accidentally choked on water. Momo asked uneasily, "How are you?" ”

She crouched on the ground, huddled in a ball, and trembled. looked upward, but caught a glimpse of Ximen Chengdao Zheng sitting calmly, his face remained silent, as if everything around him had nothing to do with him.

"I'll send you back to change your clothes." Chengde was also dripping with water, but he only cared about her.

Xia Ye'er nodded, and the princess immediately ordered someone to dock the boat, and everyone got off the boat.

"I'll just go back with my brother, and I won't bother the three princes and princesses." Xia Ye'er said.

"Today...... Thank you. Momo said apologetically.

Xia Ye'er nodded, turned around and left with Chengde.

When they walked away, Mo Tao looked back at Fang Cai's cruise ship, but seemed to be thinking about something, and there was a look of confusion on his face.

"Are you wondering why you fell into the water?" Behind him, there was a voice that was not in a hurry, revealing a faint sense of mockery.

"How do you know?" Mo Tao asked in surprise, just now she was standing well, but she felt hit by something, and she almost fell into the lake, what could it be? She looked at Simon Chengdao and was shocked, could it be him?

Ximen Chengdao snorted coldly, did not explain, waved his robe, and left by himself.

The building locks the green smoke, the water shines horizontally, the distant mountains are half faint and blue, the palace is full of beautiful scenery, Xia Yeer walked with Chengde on the way back.

Suddenly, Xia Ye'er stopped.

"What's wrong?" Chengde asked back.

"It's a little ......cold" Xia Ye'er stretched out her hand and pulled the collar together, although the weather was sunny at the beginning, the cold wind also poured into the clothes one after another, and she was soaking wet, and it became more and more cold. However, when his hand crossed his neck, he was suddenly startled and said, "My jade pendant is gone." ”

Chengde's brows furrowed slightly: "What jade pendant?" ”

"I've been wearing it since I was a child, my father's relic." She said with a gloomy expression, "It must have just landed on the ship." ”

"Don't worry, I'll help you find it." Chengde comforted, "You go back and change your clothes first, don't catch a cold." ”

Xia Ye'er nodded gratefully and said, "Then you go and come back quickly." ”

Chengde nodded, and quickly returned the same way, but he didn't know that the moment he turned his back, the anxiety on Xia Ye'er's face faded, Cen Leng looked at his departing back, stopped for a moment, and the petite figure quietly walked to the side of the path.

After a while, she was near a courtyard.

The dark red wall was surrounded by strict guards, and from time to time there were a few guards patrolling back and forth, and in the wall, in the distance, was the golden building that Fang Mo Tao fingered at the end of the day, Xia Ye'er hid sideways behind a wall opposite.

This should be the Yuqing Palace, and most of the women in the Shengyan Pavilion are locked up here, but I don't know if Duo'er is also inside.

Xia Ye'er saw the right time, got up and jumped at the corner of the wall, and flew in. It was not long before he found the cell, which had only a small window, which was supposed to be for ventilation, and a shallow light poured in to illuminate the corner of the window, and beside the window was a candlestick, which burned leisurely, and then there was darkness.

Strangely, there was no one to guard the huge cell. Xia Ye'er walked down the steps, took off the candlesticks on one side, and shone at the cages on both sides, and was shocked - this place was empty!

Hit the trick! She felt a sigh in her heart, but she heard a slight footstep behind her, so she immediately blew out the candle in her hand and disappeared into the darkness.

When the light of the candle was suddenly extinguished, the visitor slowed down his pace, but still walked inside. The moment his figure swept through the small window, Xia Ye'er saw his face clearly.

The two thick eyebrows were tightly clustered, the burning eyes were sharp, the bridge of the nose was high, and the light outside the window was half of the shadow on his face, but it still couldn't hide his rather handsome face. He was dressed in armor, with one hand resting on the hilt of the sword at his waist, ready to draw his sword at any moment.

"Who's coming?" The man snapped.

Xia Ye'er was silent, her footsteps moved back slightly, and while observing the person, she looked for a place to hide.

But when the man's figure disappeared into darkness again, the air seemed to freeze, as quiet as hell.
