Liu Yuanwan's expression was tense, I had never seen him so angry, at least, it was me.

I obediently pinched the sugar gourd, and didn't dare to make it again.

Let him lead me through the crowd, past the place where we were scattered by the crowd, he subconsciously clenched my wrist. When a vendor saw us, he smiled with relief and asked him:

"Childe, have you found your wife?"

Only then did I realize that when he could not find me, he questioned the vendors and tourists along the road, and barely learned that I had entered the alley.

If they knew that the soulless man in front of them was their famous Lord Liu, they would not laugh at him for a hundred years.

I thought to myself, wanted to laugh, glanced at his dark face, and choked again.

Liu Yuan pulled me to a small bridge with few tourists before stopping, and slowly released my wrist. I didn't notice his abnormality, I was attracted by the lanterns floating under the bridge, and I lay on the bridge and marveled.

His hands were weak around my waist, as if he was afraid that I would fall off the bridge.

I bit into the sugar gourd, sneaked a glance at him, and felt guilty when I realized that his eyes never took off me.

Perhaps, he did love the original owner, and I was seriously injured and delirious that day, and it is very likely that I was wrong.

With a light heart, I carefully handed the sugar gourd to his lips, blinked, and asked softly, "Do you want to eat it?" ”

Before I could react, I was pulled into the arms of a cangmuxiang.

My heart froze, and the sugar gourd "snapped" and fell to the ground.

The water was murmuring under the bridge, and for a moment I couldn't hear anything, and there was only a thunderous heartbeat in my ears, and I was in a trance, and I couldn't even tell if it was his or mine.

The moment the man's low whimpering voice sounded in my ears, I understood that the majestic Lord Liu had become the ordinary man who was uneasy when facing his sweetheart.

I never felt how much he was afraid of losing me.

I was suddenly very jealous of Ling Yanji, and there was a moment when I silently made a wish in my heart, if only I were Ling Yanji. Then I can accept the affection of the man in front of me, instead of enjoying the happiness that does not belong to me as a sojourner.

I was confused, there was a moment when I wanted to stay by his side forever.

No, there's business to be done.

I whispered to him in the ear, "There's something wrong with that prince." ”

He paused and slowly let go of me.

"I heard a scream from inside the ruined temple, and he said it was from the mouse he caught," I looked at him solemnly, "but I'm not stupid, I can still distinguish the sound of people and rats." ”

"I know. When I found you, I noticed something was wrong. ”

Unexpectedly, Liu Yuanwan was not surprised at all, he pinned the slippery hair behind my ears for me, and persuaded me softly.

"Don't bother about this matter, I'll send Yang Yi to investigate secretly when I get home,"

He paused, "But if the prince wants to do something, even if we know it, we can't stop it." ”

I looked at him and didn't ask any more questions. I know very well that the power imbalance in this era, the phoenix son and dragon grandson, how noble, even if you want a person's life, it is only a matter of a snap of your fingers.

I took a deep breath and turned my head to lie on the bridge.

Hopefully, it's really just a mouse.

"Ayan, I don't know why you have amnesia, but I will never allow you to lose you again," the voice in his ear paused, "The side concubine in the mansion is the daughter of the prime minister of the dynasty, and it was a helpless move for me to marry her into the mansion back then." ”

"I don't allow you to touch her today, because I am afraid that she will wait for an opportunity to harm you in the future."

I tilted my head to look at him.

"What about today...... Is it your father-in-law's birthday? ”

He paused and did not deny it.

I smiled, picked up his face, and kissed him the cheek.

Today is the birthday of the prime minister, and a banquet was held in the capital, and all the dignitaries and nobles in the capital were invited to attend, in order to win the hearts of the people and show off their prestige. And Liu Yuanwan, as his son-in-law, only sent a personal guard to give a birthday gift, but did not attend, and did not even show his face.

This further illustrates that this marriage is just a chess piece in politics, and it exists in name only.

I see what the high-ranking side princess can do, and next time she dares to provoke the old lady and give her baldness.

I kissed Liu Yuanwan, but I didn't mean to be responsible at all, and happily went to see the lanterns behind my back.

He was the only one who stood still, looking at my back, blushing to the base of his ears.

"Doctor, how is Xiao Yun?"

When I returned to the palace, I happened to meet the doctor leaving the mansion, so I hurriedly went up to inquire about Xiao Yun's injury.

The doctor said: "Back to the princess, Miss Xiaoyun's injury is not light, and she needs to take some time," he paused, glanced at Liu Yuanwan, and hesitated: "The other party has a dead hand, and the injuries are more than the chest and waist, if the princess does not arrive in time, Miss Xiaoyun may ......."

Hearing this, I rushed into the house without looking back.

Xiao Yun was lying on the bunk, her eyes closed in pain, her face was pale, and her whole person was only a small lump, which made me cry.

Xiao Yun is half a sister to me. When I was dying, she stayed by my side from morning to night, and these wounds were in her body and even more in my heart.

The corner of the clothes was gently pulled, and I raised my eyes and saw that Xiao Yun woke up at some point.

"Miss, don't be sad, Xiao Yun is fine."

Xiao Yun, I'm not blind.

I was stunned, and I howled even more sadly.

Xiao Yun: "......"

Suddenly, I remembered the fragmentary memories that flashed through my mind during the day when I witnessed Xiao Yun being pressed to the ground.

Those images flashed by, but I clearly saw the familiar and unfamiliar face, and the tears on her face. Her lips closed as if she were shouting something, but I had a splitting head and couldn't hear anything.

I couldn't help but palpitate, and I guessed that this was probably the original owner's memory awakening.

So I asked tentatively, "Xiao Yun...... Do you have a sister, or ...... Younger sister? ”

Xiao Yun was stunned, lowered her eyes for a long time, and when she raised her eyes again, her eyes were already red. She looked at me with complicated eyes, tears glistening in her eyes, and yet she said:

"Nope."

It makes me suspect that she is lying.

I wanted to ask, but I saw that she seemed to be extremely tired, and closed her eyes heavily. I couldn't bear to disturb her, so I swallowed my stomach full of questions, thinking that the little girl was shallow-minded, and if she asked again in the future, she would definitely be able to ask something.

But what I don't know is that this is the most painful and heaviest secret in Xiao Yun's heart, which is just a cardamom year.

I didn't notice that Liu Yuanwan was standing silently at the entrance, looking at my back, his eyes heavy.

It seems that every man in this world has his own secrets.

In the middle of the night, I always felt uneasy in my heart, and I couldn't sleep after tossing and turning, so I simply got up and put on my coat and decided to go out for a walk.

The moonlight is like water, thin and cool. I tightened my coat, and was about to walk out of the courtyard gate when there was a slight sound on the eaves, and I stopped, and the moment I raised my eyes, a long arrow pierced the sky and nailed to the pillar beside me.

I stood still, chilling all over. If this arrow misses even one inch, it will hit my heart.

I called the maids and ordered them to go to Liu Yuanwan, and I hurriedly went to Xiao Yun's side room. She is now seriously injured and has difficulty moving, and if a gangster breaks in, she will not even have a chance to escape.

Fortunately, Xiao Yun was fine, she lay quietly on the bunk, and her face was much better.

I slammed the door shut, and as soon as I turned around, I was embraced into the arms of a cangmuxiang.

Liu Yuanwan gasped, looked at me again and again, and asked with a panicked expression, "Are you okay?" ”

Only then did I realize that my body was trembling terribly, and as soon as he came, I seemed to have found a support, and my body went limp, and I almost collapsed.

He had obviously arrived in a hurry, and had not even had time to put on his coat. When Yang Yi arrived with his coat, he bumped into us like this, his expression was stunned, and he couldn't leave for a while, and he didn't leave.

I couldn't help but chuckle and stretched out my finger to Yang Yi, who looked embarrassed.

"I'm fine, you go and put on your coat first."

He nodded, turned to leave, paused, and then came back and took my hand, as if he didn't feel at ease with me staying alone.

Yang Yi watched him put on his coat before he took out a folded note from the side of his coat and handed it over.

"The subordinates have just gone to the princess's courtyard to check, and the thief has already fled without a trace, only a note on this arrow remains."

I leaned my head over, and before I could see it clearly, Liu Yuan pulled it into the palm of my hand.

He patted me on the head, avoided my doubtful look, put his coat over my shoulders, and then summoned the maids and ordered them to send me back.

"Ayan, I've scared you tonight, you can go back and rest first."

What the hell.

No matter how calm he pretended, it seemed to me that he was a face that couldn't be hidden.

This note is certainly not simple.

I pretended to be obedient and nodded, looking frightened, and let the maid help me walk towards the inner courtyard.

I secretly turned around, and sure enough, I saw him standing in place and unfolding the note, his face was solemn, and Yang Yi next to him got the order and walked quickly to the backyard.

That's the direction of the stables.

My eyebrows skipped a beat.

They're going to ...... Out of the house?

When I returned to the hospital, I pretended to be rested, and after dismissing the maid, I hurriedly dressed, walked lightly to the entrance, and carefully pushed open the door.

Unexpectedly, there was no one in the courtyard.

I thought that Liu Yuanwan would send someone to guard me, but I didn't expect him to be so relieved of me.

Could it be that I smiled proudly, my sister's acting skills have improved again?

Without further ado, I quickened my pace and hurried out of the house.

I'm going to catch Liu Yuanwan and hide in their carriage before leaving.

Sure enough, there was a familiar carriage parked outside the house, and strangely, there was not even a groom.

I climbed into the carriage lightly, lifted the curtain, and felt cold.

There wasn't even a place to hide in the carriage.

There was a voice behind me, I couldn't care so much, I took three steps and two steps to open the curtain and sit in, trying to shrink myself in the corner, hoping to hide myself by the night.

The strange thing is that when Liu Yuanwan got into the car and wanted to reach out and open the curtain, he made a pause and turned around and sat outside the curtain.

Yang Yi didn't ask much, driving the carriage, and the group swayed and didn't know where to go.

While I breathed a sigh of relief in my heart, I couldn't help but look at Liu Yuanwan's figure on the curtain in a daze.

Why didn't he come in? Did he find out?

No way, I deny it in my heart, probably because he doesn't like to ride in this carriage.

I cautiously approached the curtain, trying to sneak a peek at him through the gap beside the curtain. As soon as I put my eyes close to the slit, he turned his face slightly, as if sensing it.

The night was dark, and there was a light on the carriage. His eyebrows and eyes were not in the light, and I couldn't really see it for a moment.

He seemed to know that I was hiding in the carriage, but he didn't look back, as if he didn't know.

I stared at him blankly for a long time, until the carriage suddenly stopped, and I was defenseless and almost slipped out. When I hurriedly grabbed it, I raised my eyes again, and there was no one outside the carriage.

It's just that the light is still on, so I don't get scared.

I didn't know where this was, so I didn't dare to act rashly, so I secretly lifted the curtain and found that it was a small inn on the outskirts of the city.

This post station must be some years old, the name of the store on the signboard has long been blurred, there are two flickering lights hanging at the door of the store, at a glance, you can only see a little two are leaning on the front desk and sleepy.

What are they doing here?

I was about to lower the curtain when I suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure stepping into the inn.

……？
