Chapter 181: New Ideas
"Don't worry."
After appeasing Chunlan, Hotaru Yue looked at the paper in front of her with a serious face, and slowly spread it out on the handkerchief.
With a single glance, her brow furrowed.
Chunlan came over to take a closer look, and was also confused, scratching the back of her head: "What does this mean?" ”
On the spread paper, several words that look like villains are drawn, and the villains who pose are connected together, and Hotaru guesses what kind of secret words it should be, and if it is cracked, it should be a complete sentence.
Studying it carefully, Hotaru looked at the strange pattern, and her head almost crashed.
Chunlan saw her thinking, and quietly did not disturb, but after a while, she also went down a little bit, and began to feel sleepy: "Madam, maybe which child wrote it naughtily." ”
"How could this have been written by a child?"
With a chuckle, Hotaru Yue said very accurately, this paper is obviously a code, but it should be for the original owner, and she has no memory of the original owner at all, so she doesn't know what this code means.
Gently beating her head in some distress, Hotaru Yue was very depressed: "What do you mean?" ”
She tried to use the gestures of the villains to see if there were any similar words, but when they were put together, she found that it seemed that the group of villains were boxing, and there was no text similar to their movements at all.
Chunlan saw that she was so serious, she couldn't stay any longer, so she got up and prepared some tea and pastries, and when she was tired, she could eat some pastries and tea to rest.
Once caught in the puzzle, Hotaru was so engrossed that she had no idea what was going on around her.
She tried several methods, but found that she couldn't solve them.
Rubbing her hair in annoyance, she picked up the paper and slammed it into the sun, and said angrily: "How can this be untied?" ”
Chunlan poured a new cup of tea for her, and seeing that she was so distressed, she simply came up with an idea and said, "Otherwise, show it to Hou Ye, Hou Ye is so smart, maybe he can understand it?" ”
"No way!"
Hearing this, Hotaru Yue felt inappropriate, and hurriedly stood up to stop Dao, and when she got up, she accidentally touched the stool behind her, making a "stinging-" sound.
Now what kind of identity she is is still unclear, and I don't know what she entered the Hou Mansion for.
If you take this paper to Xie Jingyuan easily and accidentally let him get involved in a bigger trap, then what should you do!
Looking at Chunlan's puzzled expression, she slowly approached and said: "Don't tell Hou Ye first, now above the court, Hou Ye is alone, and the prince is a smiling tiger, there are a lot of worries, I can handle this kind of trivial matter myself, so I won't bother him." ”
Hearing that it made sense, Chunlan nodded slightly.
Looking at the paper in her hand, Hotaru was in trouble, how did she solve this mystery?
Before falling asleep, Hotaru Yue picked up the paper again, studied it for a while in the faint moonlight, and after no result, wrapped the quilt tightly under the chatter of Chunlan, and honestly fell asleep.
Or do you sleep and get up again, maybe tomorrow she will have a new idea?
When I woke up, it seemed like I had stepped into autumn.
It was raining lightly outside, which dispersed a lot of heat, but because of the rain, the lighting in the house was not very good, and it was gloomy.
Sitting in front of the pear blossom window, Hotaru held her chin and admired the light rain outside, the dripping rain falling down the eaves, splashing and rippling.
Yesterday's paper was thrown aside by her, pressed with bamboo slips, since she couldn't solve it, she didn't have a single tendon to solve the code.
After all, she was in the Hou Mansion, but the other party was able to skillfully choose such a time to send the secret letter in, so she must be observing it in secret, and if there is anything, she will definitely send a second letter.
It's just that she's been here for so long, and it's the first time she's received this kind of code.
"Pack up, I'll go to Linglong Pavilion later."
Turning around, Hotaru commanded.
Chunlan's gaze fluttered on the paper pressed by the bamboo slips on the side: "Madame, is it puzzled today?" ”
To be honest, still curious.
Firefly Yue said lightly, putting the paper into the makeup box: "Let's get down to business first." ”
After being busy in Linglong Pavilion for a long time, Yingyue, who had a sore back and back, was just about to go back to the Hou Mansion to rest and rest, but who knew that it was raining again at night, and it was not small.
Looking up at the dark sky, Firefly took the oil-paper umbrella in Chunlan's hand: "Yes, go home." ”
As soon as he walked out of Linglong Pavilion, he saw a carriage parked outside the door.
After all, the guests of Linglong Pavilion are all ladies and ladies of various families, and Yingyue mistook it for the guests' carriage, holding an oil-paper umbrella and was about to bypass it, but who knew that Xie Jingyuan walked down with an umbrella.
Her eyes lit up and she trotted in front of him: "Why are you here?" ”
Xie Jingyuan subconsciously tilted the oil-paper umbrella in his hand to her, and said with a shallow smile: "It's raining, I'll pick you up and go home." ”
Originally, there was a carriage, and Yingyue was not so pretentious, but I have to say that Xie Jingyuan's action still warmed her heart.
Xie Jingyuan put his arm around her shoulders, the two of them held an umbrella together, and he carefully escorted her into the carriage.
In the carriage, Yingyue only had a little trace of rain on her shoes, on the other hand, Xie Jingyuan's left shoulder was wet because she went out to pick her up.
Hotaru Yue hurriedly took out a handkerchief from his cuffs and wiped it for him: "It's all wet, I knew I wouldn't have let you pick me up." ”
With a chuckle, Xie Jingyuan didn't care: "It's just a little rain, it's not in the way." ”
With a pout, Hotaru wiped the rain from his clothes for him, and unconsciously approached his side.
Xie Jingyuan's eyelids lifted, and when he saw her half-leaning body, he could see her white neck and throat a little itchy when he turned his head sideways.
Hotaru Yue, who was completely unaware of all this, carefully wiped the rain for him: "Okay." ”
When he looked up, he brushed his chin.
Hotaru was stunned and stopped moving.
All around, only the sound of rain outside the carriage and the sound of the wheels rolling in the carriage remained, and the moon held her breath slightly, the tips of her ears slightly reddened.
"I ......"
As soon as she wanted to say something, she saw Xie Jingyuan's ears move, and the next second she straightened up, grabbed her shoulders and pulled her back to her original position.
Hotaru was stunned and looked at him in confusion.
What's the situation?
Before he could ask him, Hotaru was pushed aside by him: "Be careful! ”
An arrow shot in from the left side of the carriage where Yingyue was sitting, the arrow was cold and extremely fast, Xie Jingyuan quickly pushed her aside, avoiding the arrow, the arrow passed through the side of the carriage and steadily pierced into the right side of the carriage.
Firefly didn't notice for a while, and his shoulder was pushed and hit into the corner, so painful that she snorted, and when she looked up, she saw that the tail of the arrow feather trembled.
Enduring the pain, she hurriedly got up.
