MTL - He is From Great Sea of Stars-Chapter 128 On the knowledge of looking for a princess
The girl pulled up the light fragrant concubine-colored blouse on her body, bowed slightly, and said softly,
"What Prince An said, the little girl doesn't quite understand."
Huo Xingchao looked at her, raised his eyebrows, and smiled, "You don't understand?"
"Then how did the king see that at the banquet before, a girl threw other people's manuscripts into the basket."
......
It was like this when I wrote poems at the banquet before, because the small table had food and wine on it, and it was difficult to clean up, so the emperor asked people to put together a table case.
Once you have the belly draft, you can move to the desk and start writing. After the ink is dry, you can turn the poem back and put it in a small basket on the side. When the incense stick is burnt out, a maid will carry the basket and go to the woods. inside sticky painting.
When Lin Wan got up, out of a normal man's curiosity about his fiancée, Huo Xingchao looked at the table a few more times.
As a result, just these few glances made him see an uncommon picture.
At that time, Qu Shuning had written two correct ones, but the scrapped manuscript was thrown into the bamboo basket with waste paper on the side.
It was Lin Wan who picked it up, looked at it a few times, and threw it into the basket when no one was paying attention.
Thinking of the two trees in the forest with the exact same poem, and the conversation between the cousins just now, Huo Xingchao guessed the truth without thinking.
He curled his lips and asked with interest,
"The maid is illiterate, so I pasted the two identical ones. Why, is our Miss Lin also illiterate?"
Lin Wan was silent there, her clothes were slightly wrinkled by the wind, she frowned and didn't speak for a long time.
Probably thinking about what to say.
Huo Xingchao didn't take it seriously, instead he raised his feet and walked over slowly, half bent over, and continued casually,
"But this king can also understand. After all, she stole your fiancé and turned you from a concubine into a concubine. It's normal if you want to take revenge."
really.
She said that the queen mother wanted to choose Qu Shuning as Princess An, how could she not first find out her marriage status and who the girl who married Wang Li was? Ning can fool the past with a few words.
Now it seems that people's hearts are really clear.
Lin Wan bit her lip, forcing herself not to admit it,
"Prince An is joking."
"I'm serious."
The young man didn't give face at all, "But I'm curious, since you have successfully calculated her, why did you help her in the end?"
There was a hint of curiosity in his voice,
"You should understand that if Qu Shuning really explained it to her mother according to your words, she would definitely not hold her accountable."
Not only that, Lin Wan gave Qu Shuning a draft beforehand. When she explained it, she would naturally be calmer and more credible. Maybe everyone would really think that the maid made a mistake.
And if Lin Wan didn't give her an idea, with Qu Shuning's big heart, she would be flustered at that time, and she didn't need to do anything, just say a word that she doesn't know - such a panicked attitude and incomprehensible Explanation - It will definitely make others think it is a demon she made herself.
That's why Huo Xingxing was curious, since Lin Wan first took revenge on Qu Shuning, why did she finally give her an idea to let her escape this disaster? Is it just for fun?
He felt that his fiancee was a bit mysterious.
On the outside it looks soft like a cloud, but on the inside I don't know if it is black or red.
The girl didn't know the twists and turns in his mind, her eyes were lowered, her expression was calm, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
Huo Xingxing tapped her head with the hilt in his hand,
"Hey, talk."
"..."
"If you don't speak again, I'll use this knife to cut off your tongue."
......
Lin Wan raised her head and her eyes slowly fell on the knife.
The edge of the knife was still facing him. The blade was sharp, with a few traces of blood that had not been wiped clean. There were several precious sapphires inlaid on the handle of the knife. No wonder it was bumpy when knocked on the head.
Then her gaze slowly moved down again.
The boy has already raised his eyebrows in dissatisfaction, staring at her, his eyes are fierce, his white face is full of ferocity and threats, and he looks especially bad.
Kind of like... the little wolf they met at the hunting grounds this morning.
Facing them, he bared his teeth and grimaced, making people want to arrest them for no reason.
Lin Wan coughed lightly, and in the young man's fierce eyes, a pair of clear eyes appeared.
The voice was also clear and clear, like a spring rain, "Since Prince An has seen it, I won't repeat it."
"I calculated her because I really couldn't be angry."
"Angry that she stole Wang Li?"
Huo Xingchao couldn't help but interrupt.
"It has nothing to do with Young Master Wang, it's the same for anyone, even Prince An. Cousin Qu has a good heart, but she sacrificed me for her own sake without discussing it with me, only this one. , I can't accept it."
The girl raised her head, her eyes were clean and open, and she didn't hide anything.
"So I calculated her, and I was really just angry but wanted revenge."
"Then why did you finally help her out?"
"That's because Cousin Qu really didn't mean to harm me."
She lowered her eyes, her eyelashes covered her eyes, and she couldn't see her expression clearly, but she seemed half lonely, "She is my relative, just make fun of her, and it's over, why ruin people's reputation."
......
The young man looked at her with a rare thought in his eyes.
Huo Chaochao: "Tsk, this girl really looks like you."
Huo Xingxing: "Where's the resemblance? If it were me, the person who harmed me, whether he wanted to or not, just kill him. It doesn't look like her, she is indecisive!"
Huo Chaochao: "Yo, the sixth prince tore up your painting a few years ago. You planned to kneel outside the main hall, why didn't you let him kneel to death, but he was carried back halfway?"
Huo Xingxing: "..."
Lin Wan didn't hear him for a long time, so she couldn't help but raised her eyes to look, but she slammed into a pair of dark eyes, her concentration made people flustered.
She was stunned for a moment, and immediately covered her upper eyelids back.
"That, Prince An, if you think I've done too much, you'll be beaten or punished. It's up to you. I just ask you not to break off the marriage. I'm like that now."
The girl paused, as if she was suppressing something, her expression was lonely and desolate,
"If I am rejected by you and the queen mother again, I will really be..."
Speaking of the back, the voice has become a little more choked, and can't speak any more.
Huo Xingxing felt that she was really pitiful.
This was originally just a matter of Qu Shuning and herself. As a result, Qu Shuning kept her mouth shut, and her mother, out of anger, directly dragged her in, which not only took away the good fiancé they said was good, but also made them become Side concubine.
Side Concubine Side Concubine, although the name sounds good, but when you say it carefully, it is far less than the wife.
And Wang Li, he also knew. Although he was a little indecisive, his temperament was gentle, the family was harmonious, and there were not so many bad things. Compared with other playboys in the capital, he was indeed a good match.
And now...
After thinking about it, the young man saw the depressed expression of the girl in front of him. For some reason, he felt some pity and pride in his heart.
He patted the girl's head again with the handle of the knife, this time the action was much lighter, showing the meaning of comfort,
"You can rest assured that even if I can't marry you one day, I will find a good family for you!"
Huo Xingxing thought for a while, put the knife into the sheath, and then handed her the delicate treasured knife in his hand.
"This, you keep it, if one day I'm gone, you will take this knife to see the emperor, he will help you."
?
what?
Don't you have a good chat about the conflict between cousins, why did it suddenly rise to the level of human life?
Lin Wan took the knife in a daze, because it had been held by the young man for a long time, and the hand was warm, and the gem on the scabbard shone slightly in the moonlight.
She finally reacted and hurriedly handed it back,
"Prince An, this is a gift from the royal family, I can't ask for it."
Of course, Lin Wan had seen this knife. It was given to him at today's banquet because Lord An Xiaowang had killed a bear. He also said that with this knife, he could make a request to him.
Such a precious thing, if you meet a girl and cry and give it away, this little prince must be such a prodigal!
Lin Wan, who was about to marry into the palace, was very distressed.
"You just keep it."
Huo Xingxing frowned and didn't answer. Instead, he looked at the blood on the blade and thought of something. He took off a jade pendant from his waist and handed it to her.
"Well, take this one too."
"If one day... the emperor is no longer alive, you will take this... huh?"
Halfway through speaking, Huo Xingxing found that his mouth was covered, and an unfamiliar touch came from his lips.
The girl's fingers are soft and warm without the calluses left by his years of martial arts practice.
She covered his mouth, looked around cautiously, and finally let out a sigh of relief and put down her hand.
"What are you doing? Everyone is born, old, sick and dying. Is it possible that the emperor's brother..."
"Master An."
She interrupted him quickly, blinking her eyes incessantly, her voice crisp and loud,
"Long live the emperor, long live, long live, he is the son of destiny, he will live forever, and the sky is full of blessings!"
......
Huo Xingxing looked at her for a while in amazement.
In the end, he didn't feel happy anymore, and glared at her with a stern face, "Smooter!"
He snatched the knife from her hand, "If you don't want it, don't ask for it. Let's see who else can you marry after Grandpa's death!"
"It's really a chicken and a duck, playing the piano to a cow!"
"..."
Lin Wan looked at his back as Meteor strode away angrily, and suddenly felt a little tired.
She felt that she was the one who talked to the duck and played the piano to the cow.
I don't want to get married.
When was he implicated in the nine clans because of treason, and he was not alone.
......
