On the Shangyuan Festival, the morning fog has not yet dissipated, and the Chongdu City is full of the smell of solar terms.

As early as an hour ago, when the first rays of dawn shone on the lintel of Xi's house, Xi Yun sent the pearl to Si Le Fu. There was no trace of coming and going, and when An Ruofei woke up, the pale cyan brocade box had been put into her room.

An Ruofei peeked around, and saw that there was no one else, so he cautiously opened it.

I saw a pearl lying quietly in the box, about the size of a pigeon's egg, extremely round, and there seemed to be a faint brilliance around the bead, and it was not ordinary at a glance. Gently remove the beads, and a folded piece of paper is revealed. An Ruofei gently unfolded it, only to see that it was neatly written in small letters:

The pearl is full of white sleeves, which makes my eyes open at first sight. Yuanqing: If you can't catch it, you will fly to chase the shock.

After reading it, An Ruofei put the paper and beads back in place, and hurriedly gathered the brocade box in his sleeve. I hurriedly tried to find some words to hide the uneasiness in my heart.

Graceful? How will he know my wiveness? An Ruofei thought so, and a touch of melancholy in the cut pupil floated up......

Lang Yu saw that An Ruofei was in turmoil at the moment, so he comforted: "On the Shangyuan Festival, it is common for people in the family to give gifts to Si Le Fu, so adults don't need to panic. ”

An Ruofei glanced at Lang Yu with an inquiring look, and hesitated: "I am only afraid that I will become a handle in the future when I accept this thing, which will harm me and affect him." ”

Lang Yu lowered his eyes and sighed lightly, "Escort Xi didn't come in, he didn't give you a chance not to accept it at all." Fortunately, the secret of the Xi guards, and the secret of the walk, only I can see it. You are in the position of Si Le, and you have been in the limelight at the palace banquet, and there are many people staring at you, you take care of this thing, don't let people see it and make a fuss. ”

An Ruofei agreed a little helplessly: "I know, if I am not careful, I am afraid that I will die without a place to be buried." Don't mention this to anyone. ”

……

It was only a moment after settling down, but someone immediately reported that the eldest son of the Qi family, the eldest son of the Situ family, and the fourth son of the Xi family sent gifts one after another.

An Ruofei and Lang Yu glanced at each other, and both of them had some doubts in their hearts, "It's really strange today, my Si Le Mansion, which is a big family, has ushered in the generous gifts of three sons-in-law, and they are not afraid that I can't afford it?" ”

Although Lang Yu was puzzled, he still comforted her and said: "Shangyuan Festival, there will be exceptions to everything, just accept it, adults." ”

An Ruofei nodded and said lightly: "I know, you are welcome in." I will take each one, so as not to offend anyone. ”

"The Qi family, the Situ family, the Xi family..."Thinking of this, Lang Yu's heart suddenly became a little confused, so he asked, "I don't understand, why didn't the Jing family send a gift?" ”

An Ruofei explained calmly: "This matter is a long story, and I will tell you slowly in the future." It's just that I'm with the Jing family... It's really a bit of a festival, and it's natural for the Jing family not to walk around with me. However, An Ruofei was only right, the Jing family is still too busy to take care of themselves, no matter which government department it is, the Jing family has no time to give gifts.

When Lang Yu heard this, he knew that he shouldn't ask, so he stopped talking, and retired after saluting.

No matter how much An Ruofei is pampered, he is not surprised, but since the gift has been delivered to the house, there is no reason not to open it and take a look.

An Ruofei swept over at a glance, the three brocade boxes on the table were different, the Qi family was a silver-red brocade box, and it could be seen that the owner was very casual; Situ's is a very delicate apricot yellow brocade box, slightly taller than the other two; As for the Xi family...... It's the emerald color that An Ruofei doesn't like very much.

Open one by one in order, they are nothing more than ornaments and other things, seemingly precious but useless. An Ruofei looked over lazily, unable to arouse any interest in his heart...

No, when An Ruofei's eyes swept over the apricot-yellow brocade box sent by Situ Yizheng again, her pupils shrank suddenly, and several emotions suddenly surged up in her eyes that had never been wavering.

No one knew why An Ruofei suddenly grabbed the corner of her clothes, and no one knew why her weak shoulders kept trembling, only she understood that in this Chongdu City, someone had already pinched her lifeline, and the vicious and sharp needle tip had been aimed at her death hole......

An Ruofei's hands and feet were cold, but she still had to muster up the courage to open the apricot yellow brocade box again, and after confirming that it was correct, she only felt that all her strength was drained in an instant, and her palms had already soaked out a fine and dense cold sweat.

There was only one willow leaf bottle in the box, but the neatly folded cloud brocade under the willow leaf bottle was what really made An Ruofei feel desperate.

Yun Jin painted a pattern with thick ink, and this pattern is for An Ruofei... It's too familiar, that's the Xie family's logo, and it's also a weapon that can kill her, it's the Xuanji that she desperately hid, and Situ Yizheng has already got it......

She didn't know how Situ Yizheng knew her background, and she didn't know what she should do now, for a moment... An Ruofei felt that her life and death had lost their meaning, and her life and death had been controlled by others.

Unlike the despair at the beginning, An Ruofei had gradually come back to her senses after half an hour, she clutched the hem of her skirt tightly, restrained herself from trembling, and tried desperately to calm herself down. She knew that the more important it was, the more she couldn't afford to mess with herself.

Fear, resentment, regret...... An Ruofei's heart was mixed, she really shouldn't have left Xuanji in the Shengge Workshop so carelessly, let alone left Xuanji by luck, she should have destroyed this terrible thing a long time ago.

But now it is pointless to discuss these issues, and the most important thing now is that she has been pushed to the edge of the cliff, and under the cliff, countless sharp blades are facing her.

But she also knew that she would not die for the time being, because since Situ Yizheng already knew his background and sent things here in a grand manner, then he must have something to seek. What is hidden in An Ruofei's eyes, in addition to fear and regret, is also endless hatred and killing intent.

In addition, she only cares about one thing now, that is, what does Situ Yizheng want?

So she was waiting, waiting for Situ Yizheng to come and solve her doubts in person. But after waiting for a long time, there seems to be no answer.

……

On the night of Shangyuan, it should have been a good time to invite friends and companions to go out to have fun, but Si Lefu fell into silence. The sound of Feng Xiao faintly came from outside the wall, and a few fireworks of Canghuan occasionally exploded in the sky...... But in An Ruofei's eyes, these have become meaningless things.

Unlike An Ruofei's passivity and hopelessness in Si Le Fu, Situ Yizheng looked like a Xuan Xuan at this time.

When Gao Hong saw him coming back, he didn't care about etiquette, so he hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Don't worry," Situ Yizheng said with arrogance: "It's a safe thing to do, and she can't help it if she doesn't want to." Thinking of An Ruofei's appearance when he saw her in Si Le Fu this evening, Situ Yizheng felt extremely satisfied.

was a cold and wonderful person, but there was only hope left in his eyes..... Situ Yizheng thought that he was very measured, and he believed that by doing so, he would neither let her be left to chance, nor would she be completely desperate.

"She agreed?"

"She can't help but agree," Situ Yizheng snapped the fan together, and the cold glint in his eyes flashed slightly, "After all, her life, as well as the lives of her friends on Shifang Street, are all in my hands." Even if she doesn't care about her own life, she should always think about those innocents..."

Gao Hong bowed slightly and said, "But once the thing is done, not only Gongzi Xi, but also her will definitely die." When a person dies, there is nothing, and she herself will die, so how can she care about other people? ”

"I promised to let her live," Situ Yizheng sketched an extremely sinister smile, "I didn't tell her our purpose, I just promised her to let her live, but when the time comes, I can tolerate her, and naturally there will be people who can't tolerate her...... For example, Your Majesty. ”
