In the winter night, the tea was cold, and the snacks were cold, but the proud and handsome young man did not dislike it...... しw0。

Even if it's just an ordinary meal, it's as elegant as a painting. Shen Miao flicked the wick on the table slightly, and noticed that Xie Jingxing's clothes seemed to be cold, as if he had just come back from outside, and said, "You have always been here?"

Xie Jingxing will not hang on the tree of the Shen Mansion all the time, and he will say it casually when he thinks about it, Shen Miaocai does not believe that the dignified Rui King has been doing nothing all day.

Xie Jingxing smiled indifferently: "Didn't you ask me to kill Princess Ming'an?"

Shen Miao was stunned, looked at Xie Jingxing, and asked tentatively, "You killed her?"

"Why. ”

Shen Miao stopped talking. Xie Jingxing's methods, in fact, she has been taught. Two years ago, when Xie Jingxing was still the little marquis of Lin'an Hou Mansion, he was a clean man who did not leave a living mouth to deal with those masked people who appeared inexplicably at the Lantern Festival. Two years later, in the secret room of Lin'an Hou's Mansion, he was also clean and tidy to Xie Changchao. In fact, at some point, Shen Miao thought that Xie Jingxing had certain qualities that an emperor should have. But Xie Jingxing and Fu Xiuyi are clearly different people, probably because Fu Xiuyi can act on the scene for the throne and endure it for many years, but Xie Jingxing will meet directly with the blade arrogantly.

Perhaps this is the pride of the Great Liang Dynasty in its bones.

Shen Miao thought for a while, then shook her head again, what does the cool sky and high earth have to do with her, and then look at Xie Jingxing, and suddenly feel that it is a little strange at the moment, when will Shen Miao herself also classify herself and Xie Jingxing together, is it really Xie Jingxing an ally?

She asked, "What happened to her?" How will Xie Jingxing deal with Princess Ming'an? Shen Miao actually has a little expectation in her heart, this expectation carries a little malice, she has been in the harem for too long, Shen Miao is not a pure and kind woman who can't see blood, and in the face of a ruthless person like Princess Ming'an, Shen Miao will not have the slightest pity.

"Just looking forward to it?" Xie Jingxing looked at her funny and said lazily: "You'll know tomorrow." ”

Shen Miao pondered what Xie Jingxing meant by this, was it actually quite lively for Princess Ming'an to die? She asked, "What about Xie Changwu?"

Xie Jingxing even started Princess Ming'an, and there was no reason to let Xie Changwu go.

Sure enough, I only heard Xie Jingxing say: "Kill." ”

"Aren't you afraid that Lin'anhou will be sad to know about this?" Shen Miao looked at him and asked.

The fire was burning in the house, Xie Jingxing picked up the tea cup and took a sip, his thin lips were soaked in tea, and it looked a little crimson, but his smile was as casual as ever, and said: "What does the family affairs of the Lin'an Hou Mansion have to do with me?"

It was clearly a cold sentence, but Shen Miao saw a bit of self-deprecation in the young man's nonchalant smile, and her heart moved slightly.

From the beginning of attacking the Xie family brothers, Xie Jingxing really abandoned all the connections in the Lin'an Hou Mansion. Because if Xie Ding traces his whereabouts one day, even if Xie Ding was not very hostile to Xie Jingxing, but because of the death of the Xie family's brothers, he will not let go for the rest of his life. Father and son become enemies, although they are not biological father and son, but Xie Jingxing is really as unintentional as he seems on the surface, or does he just hide all his emotions, good and bad, in those eyes that are always full of smiles?

Everyone in the world has their own secrets that they don't want to say, and Xie Jingxing's thoughts, Shen Miao has no way of knowing. On this snowy winter night, Xie Jingxing ran to the tree outside Shen's house to cool off, really just folding flowers and giving them away, or just like her, but he had no dreams at night, so he used the heavy snow to sober up and settle those unpleasant thoughts.

In this way, the two of them are really a little bit like each other.

Shen Miao suddenly looked at Xie Jingxing, which was a little pleasing to the eye.

Xie Jingxing caught a glimpse of her gaze, slightly stunned, and then said, "What kind of eyes are you?" sympathize with me?"

Shen Miao smiled: "I'm still too busy to take care of myself, what qualifications do I have to sympathize with others? let alone a person like His Royal Highness King Rui who covers the sky with one hand." Shen Miao said with a bit of ridicule, maybe even she didn't notice it, there was a bit of divergence in these words, which made Xie Jingxing's heart soothe a little.

Xie Jingxing raised his eyebrows and glanced at Shen Miao, suddenly put his hands on the table, approached Shen Miao, and said with a smile: "You don't have to be arrogant, with my allies, you still have the qualifications to be superior." In the winter night, his voice seemed to be deliberately lowered, with a slight warmth, and he said slowly: "Of course, if it is a woman who follows me, then she has any qualifications." ”

His eyebrows and eyes are extremely beautiful, that is, in his previous life, Shen Miao had seen countless beauties in the palace, but he had never seen such a good-looking person. It's not that it's good-looking, but it's as if the elegance of the romance is carved into the bone marrow and deep into the soul, and every move is addictive, as if the spring flowers that can bloom layer upon layer in winter, making people feel both cold and hot, and when he stares at people carefully, it will make the other party have an illusion, as if in this world, only he is taken seriously.

His eyes fell on Shen Miao's lips, tilted his head slightly, smiled for a moment, and slowly lowered his head.

The shadows under the lamp are almost intertwined in a lingering posture, the men are tall and the women are petite, but it is also a picture of flowers and full moons.

Shen Miao's heart froze slightly, and pushed Xie Jingxing away, probably because she felt that her movements were too abrupt and unnatural, so she took a sip of the herbal tea in front of her again, but forgot that this tea had just been drunk by Xie Jingxing, she coughed lightly twice, turned her head not to look at the other party's face, but her face slowly began to get hot.

Xie Jingxing was so cold that he was pushed by Shen Miao and almost fell, fell on the chair and squatted, and when he looked up, he saw Shen Miao hurriedly serving tea to drink, Fang Cai's displeasure was swept away, and he suddenly felt a little funny.

He lazily said, "Hey." ”

Shen Miao didn't look at him, and looked down at the shadow on the ground. Xie Jingxing's eyes were even more smiling, and he deliberately teased: "Are you still shy?"

Shen Miao raised her head sharply and glared at him.

However, even this glare, probably because of the warm light in this room, it seems soft, but it is even more heartwarming. Her eyebrows and eyes are small and cute, but on weekdays, she is completely different from her appearance, and she rarely has a little daughter's attitude, but at the moment she is embarrassed and embarrassed, and her fair face seems to be drunk and sprinkled with a faint red, which is even more unique. Suddenly, it reminded people of that winter night two years ago, when she was wearing a middle coat with long hair and standing in front of the window drunk and hazy, but she wanted to point and watch the fireworks. When I think about it, my lips and teeth seem to have a crisp aroma of plum blossom wine.

Xie Jingxing hooked his lips and smiled: "Shen Miao." ”

"What's the matter?" Shen Miao held her breath, for Xie Jingxing, if he came hard, or played some tricks, Shen Miao could be calm. However, Xie Jingxing treated her like a little girl, very bad, but Shen Miao didn't know how to deal with it. In her previous life, she was in the palace, she was flattering and obedient in front of people, and pointing at her in front of people, but from beginning to end, the people she came into contact with were old-fashioned people who abided by the rules and etiquette of the palace, such as Xie Jingxing, who was arrogant and acted in an unruly manner, she had never met. It seems that all the countermeasures have lost their effect under the opponent's unreasonable routine.

"You're drinking from my teacup. Xie Jingxing reminded.

Shen Miao subconsciously looked down, and then she was so embarrassed that she wanted to raise her feet and leave, she suddenly felt that it was really the biggest mistake she made to let Xie Jingxing into the house tonight!

"Shy?" Xie Jingxing seemed to like to see her embarrassed appearance very much, and continued to approach.

"It's not early," Shen Miao said, "You're not leaving?"

Xie Jingxing didn't speak, stared at her for a while, his eyes were sharp and deep, ordinary people couldn't resist it, Shen Miao looked at him calmly. After a while, Xie Jingxing stood up and said, "That's it, since you are shy, I won't bother you." The ambiguity he said made people think about it, but he didn't see Shen Miao's stiff face in an instant.

He walked to the window, Shen Miao followed and stood up, Xie Jingxing opened the window, and the cold wind outside swept in through the window, and Shen Miao shivered.

"It's cold outside, so you don't have to send it. Xie Jingxing said: "Thank you for taking in, the tea is very delicious, and the snacks are good." His figure flashed, but he was already in the courtyard outside the window.

Shen Miao walked over and planned to close the window and door, but saw that in the snowstorm, the young man in the purple robe suddenly remembered something and smiled gently.

"By the way, it's cute when you're shy. ”

Shen Miao slammed the window slammed.

She shouldn't be soft-hearted!

After Shen Miao closed the window, she sat back on the bed in the room, and looked at the oil lamp at the bedside, which was faintly almost extinguished. Her eyes, however, were unusually bright, sparkling like the finest jewels, shining in the darkness of the night.

She thought that if it was in the previous life, Xie Jingxing's behavior should be called a crime, she could have shouted presumptuous and let people drag him out and behead him, but in this life, she was also completely amused.

But why is it embarrassing?

In the flickering lights, the man lowered his head slightly, and could see almost every one of his long eyelashes, his eyes were more moving and intoxicating than the moonlight, and his lips were thin and slightly cold......

Shen Miao came back to her senses suddenly, rubbed her forehead, and thought that she was too tired these days, so she was also stunned, a good-looking person like Xie Jingxingsheng would be attracted, just like the top brand in the small restaurant. She comforted herself like this, but she couldn't calm the somewhat strange heartbeat, and when she was lying on the bed, she didn't know that the corners of her lips were also unconsciously curled slightly.

......

The winter in Dingjing is extremely cold, and the people who live at the feet of the Son of Heaven, even if they are just ordinary people, are about the same as those who are honored, and they are different from ordinary people in the outer city, and they must pay attention to some superiority. Not to mention the dignitaries. Therefore, in winter, people have to get up late, except for the street vendors who have to get up early to set up their stalls, ordinary people are willing to go out more warmly in the house.

It snowed heavily overnight yesterday, and it was even colder outside, but fortunately the snow stopped early this morning, so everyone was still willing to go out. Later, the streets began to populate with more people.

After a whole night of snow in Wandai Lake, the surface of the lake has been frozen into hard ice, and the old man who usually fishes refuses to come now, if nothing else, it is very difficult to dig holes in such hard ice, so it is better to wait for the weather to warm up and come again.

Although there are fewer old fishermen in Mandai Lake, there is more of a group of playful naughty children. The lake is shiny, and children love to wear hard-soled boots or find a piece of wood to chase and play on the ice. Most of these children were the children of the street vendors, and their mothers scolded them for staining their newly made jackets, and they were afraid that the ice would suddenly shatter in the middle of the way, but the children were at the age of playfulness, so they would obediently obey their mothers, so three or five friends secretly took pieces of wood to play in Wanli Lake.

It's the same today.

A few children of five or six years old walked to the center of Mandai Lake with a piece of wood, the lake was very slippery, and several children had to walk carefully, and it didn't matter if the ice surface wet and stained the newly made clothes, they would inevitably turn back and be scolded by their mothers, so they all walked very slowly.

It was easy to walk to the center of Mandai Lake, and several children put down the wooden piece in their hands, and sat on the wooden piece, and one person pushed it behind the lake, pushing it out from the center of the lake, and they felt that the play was particularly cheerful. A little girl with drooping hair in a flower jacket walked back with a piece of wood in her arms, probably wanting to go further, but suddenly stopped.

"Ah Chun, what are you doing standing there?" the older boy couldn't help but ask when he saw his sister standing in front of him in a daze.

"Brother," the little girl named Ah Chun pointed to the front, "That ice sculpture is so strange." ”

......。

There are exquisite restaurants in the south of the city, and naturally there are some ordinary shops, most of the owners of these shops are ordinary people who have some savings and can be called a small wealth, but they can't afford to rent the storefront of a big restaurant. However, even so, due to the unique location environment in the south of the city, the general shops are still quite lively.

On weekdays, the shopkeepers or proprietresses of the shops are busy, and when they are not busy, they always like to sit in one place and talk and drink tea. It was about early today, and there were not many customers, so the shopkeepers of several adjacent shops gathered in front of the door to talk.

Just as he was saying that the weather was getting colder and colder day by day, he saw several children running towards this end in unison, all of them panting. These children are the children of the shop vendors in this area, and they all play together on weekdays. The female shopkeeper who sold rouge looked at it, suddenly raised her eyebrows, and said angrily: "Dongzi, did you take Ah Chun to Wanli Lake again? I made a new padded jacket for Ah Chun yesterday, but now it's all wet, don't you have itchy skin?"

As he was talking, he saw that several shopkeepers around him also taught their children a lesson, just because this group of children were all in a mess now, their clothes were torn and wet, and their bodies were in a mess, and some even lost a shoe, as if they were running back in a hurry.

Just as he was about to say a few words, the boy named Dongzi cried "wow" and said, "Wanli Lake...... There are people ...... in Mandai Lake"

When everyone heard this, they were stunned at first, and a middle-aged man in cloth said: "It's broken, it shouldn't be a doll that fell into the water, right?"

There are perennial drowning of children playing in the water at Mandai Lake, and it is rare in winter, but it is not uncommon. There have been cases of children playing on the ice when the ice surface cracked, fell into the water and died. As soon as these words came out, everyone's faces changed, and the female shopkeeper who sold rouge was an old-fashioned and enthusiastic person, so she stomped her feet anxiously: "Then what are you waiting for, let's go and see first, they are all neighbors, whose doll falls into the water is not in a hurry, go, go and see!"

When everyone heard this, they all agreed, and they all followed the female shopkeeper to the surface of Wanli Lake.

When I arrived at Mandai Lake, I was stunned, only to see that in addition to the playful children who usually come in winter, there were already many people around the deserted Mandai Lake, and more people actually walked to the center of the lake.

"This ...... It's not overboard. The shopkeeper muttered.

If something happens, some people will go up to help, some people will watch the excitement, but not so many people will walk to the center of the lake together. In particular, many of the people who walked towards the center of the lake were rich and well-dressed children, which was a bit unusual. It's not that the rich and noble are not good, it's just that in this world, they sweep the snow in front of the door and don't care about the frost on the tiles of others, and it is common for the rich and noble to be indifferent to the affairs of ordinary people, and now it is ...... When did Dingjing have so many people with ancient roads?

At this moment, there are also people on Wanli Lake walking towards the center of the lake, Cai Lin is shivering with cold all over his body, although he is already wearing extremely heavy clothes, and he is still covered with a wool cloak, but the lake has always been much colder than on the ground, especially the ice cubes under his feet are drilled straight under his feet through his boots, which makes Cai Lin a pampered boy and brother a little unbearable.

"What's on the surface of this lake?" Cai Lin asked his fox friends who usually smell the same as him: "Why do people look at this early in the morning." ”

Early in the morning, Cai Lin found his sons and daughters who played with him on weekdays, and originally planned to go to the gambling house to play today, but who knew that his friend said that there was a big movement in Wanli Lake, so he had to take him to see it.

"Actually, I don't know. The man said, "But I heard what the people said, so I took you with me." Hehe," he leaned closer to Cai Lin and said in a low voice: "On weekdays, we only hear about glamorous corpses in dramas and books, but today we can see the real glamorous corpses." ”

"Corpse?" Cai Lin was startled, and hurriedly said, "I'm not going." Although he also likes some curious things on weekdays, he is also lively on his lips, and he is still a little timid in his bones. In the past, he was known as the little overlord, and he was killed by Shen Miao on the verification table two years ago, but now he seems to be a little more peaceful.

But the friend didn't give up, and said, "It's all here, just go and see, just take a look, what are you afraid of?"

Cai Lin was the most unexcited, and immediately said: "Where am I afraid? I'll go with you now! I want to see what it is, worthy of your excitement." ”

The two of them had already walked most of the way, and they were now very close to the middle of the lake, and when they reached the very center, there were already many people pointing at them outside. The friend dragged Cai Lin to push the crowd away, squeezed to the front, pointed to the thing in the middle and said, "Look at it, this is it!"

Cai Lin followed and raised his eyes to look up.

Winter in Dingjing is cold, especially recently. But if you put a bucket of water outside the courtyard, you will see it the next day, and it goes without saying that it will form a bucket of ice. And as long as it is stained with water, such as the eaves of a tree branch, it will inevitably be hung with ice after a night.

In the center of Mandai Lake are three standing "ice sculptures".

It is said that it is an ice sculpture, in fact, it is not accurate, in the three humanoid ice cubes, you can clearly see the clear appearance of people in the transparent ice surface, and it is precisely like this, so that people can clearly understand that this is not something carefully carved by skilled craftsmen, but real, three living people, or rather, people who were frozen to death and froze into ice sculptures in their pre-death form.

And the most amazing thing is the posture of these three people.

In the center is obviously a woman, lightly undressed, revealing most of her snow-white body, while the man on her side is reaching out to untie her belly pocket, and the man behind her is holding the woman's waist with both hands from behind. The woman leaned her head back and half leaned behind the man, although her expression was a little stiff, but this * action seemed to be a living spring picture, which made people think about it. Most of the people who surround this ice sculpture layer after layer are men, there are ordinary people, there are also rich and noble brothers, some may be for curiosity, and some are holding the idea of not looking at nothing, that is, the corpse, after all, she is also a beautiful woman, and this ice sculpture is lifelike, not only does it make people feel terrifying, but it makes people feel that there is a fragrant atmosphere from the inside out.

And the truth has been overlooked.

People always put all their eyes on what they are interested in, and the men talk about where this living spring picture came from, or where to find such a woman, but no one thinks about what kind of case this is, three people were frozen to death, it should have been a terrible thing.

Cai Lin stared at the three ice sculptures, he was also a little afraid of corpses. However, this ice sculpture does not make people feel terrible, but has a sense of vulgarity and amusement in the market, so I also look at it. A friend next to him said: "This woman is very good-looking, you see, where do ordinary people raise such a beauty, but she is still so attractive." ”

In and out of words, it's like commenting on a new girl in a green building.

Cai Lin echoed his friend's words while staring carefully at the woman's ice sculpture. Even through a thin layer of ice on the surface, the woman's facial features can be vaguely seen. The facial features are very delicate, and even a little familiar.

Familiar?

Cai Lin asked: "I think this girl is a little familiar, do you want to think about it, is it a girl in which building, we have seen it?"

The friend looked at it carefully, shook his head and said, "Impossible, I have been to Dingjing from the Qinglou to the teaching workshop, and the girl has also seen it, but this one has never seen it." He said casually: "Seeing that the belly pockets worn by others are all inlaid with gold, maybe it is a dignitary from a noble family, born in the palace." ”

He was unintentional, but Cai Lin was stunned.

Born in the palace?

He raised his eyes to look at the woman, but what appeared in front of him was a young arrogant woman in a tulle gold dress at a palace banquet, and the somewhat domineering face gradually overlapped with the stiff face in front of him, and finally became a person.

"Princess Ming'an!" Cai Lin shouted in a lost voice.

"What?" The friend was stunned, this friend was just a wealthy businessman, and he had no chance to contact the palace officials and nobles on weekdays, so he didn't understand what Cai Lin was talking about.

And Cai Lin's face changed instantly, he finally understood why he felt that this female corpse was a little familiar, at the tribute banquet of Ming Qi before, because of his concern for Shen Miao, he and Shen Miao tried to shoot foot, and Princess Ming'an, who almost became his second person, was also noticed by him at that time. At that time, Cai Lin still felt a little sympathetic to Princess Ming'an.

And right now, the woman in this ice sculpture and two men in a glamorous pose, who is not Princess Ming'an?

Although Cai Lin's words were not echoed by his friends, there were people around him who heard them and asked him one after another: "The princess Ming'an you are talking about, but the princess Ming'an from the Qin Kingdom?"

"Really, the woman in here is Princess Ming'an?"

"How can a princess of a country be like this...... Fake it. ”

"Speaking of which, this woman really dresses a bit like a princess. ”

......

This uproar on Wanli Lake in Dingjing City, Princess Ming'an and the two men were talked about by the people of Mingqi in an extremely fragrant posture, and it soon spread to the palace. Naturally, it also spread to the Shen Mansion.

Shen Miao talked to Xie Jingxing in the middle of the night last night, and then she couldn't sleep even more, and she didn't fall asleep until the sky was slightly bright, so she was lazy. Jing Yu and Gu Yu didn't dare to quarrel with her when they saw Shen Miao's sleeping incense, and by the time Shen Miao got up for breakfast, it was already very late.

She was drinking the porridge made in the kitchen while thinking about Xie Jingxing's words last night, but she saw Luo Tan running in from outside in a hurry.

Luo Tan's injuries these days have improved a lot under Gao Yang's diagnosis and treatment, although Gao Yang has always emphasized that Luo Tan should recuperate well, but where is Luo Tan who can calm down, what should he do, sometimes it almost makes people wonder if the person who almost lost his life a few days ago is not her.

"Little cousin!little cousin!" Luo Tan rushed in and sat down opposite Shen Miao.

Shen Miao didn't raise her eyes, and ate the porridge in her mouth by herself. These days, Shen Xin didn't allow Luo Tan and Shen Miao to go out again, so as not to meet gangsters like last time, so Luo Tan had to stay in the mansion, and he was probably bored all day. Shen Miao always felt that when she met Luo Tan, it seemed that Luo Tan was the one who was her sister, so she was much more tolerant.

"Little cousin, don't eat yet, listen to me about a big event. Luo Tan was sitting in danger.

Shen Miao was helpless, put down the spoon in his hand, and said, "What's wrong?"

"Princess Ming'an is dead!" Luo Tan said: "The body was found on Wanli Lake early this morning, with two men...... That's what I do. But I don't know why it froze into ice cubes, and now the whole capital is talking about it!"
