Mu Qihua looked at her quietly for a while, then put down the pen in his hand and waved to her, "Ling'er, come here again."
Hu Ling'er walked over as instructed, walked around the desk and came to his side. Then Mu Qihua said, "Why did you suddenly ask about Xia Yihan's whereabouts more than a month ago?"
"That's..." Hu Ling'er hesitated for a moment, then simply said coquettishly: "Oh, I asked dad first, and I'll tell you after you answer."
"You girl..." Seeing her acting like a naughty girl, Mu Qihua shook his head helplessly, squinting his eyes as if thinking: "The emperor ascended the throne two months ago, and not long after he ascended the throne, the deposed prince launched an army.
He rebelled and claimed that he had the sacred objects of our Qi Xia Kingdom. When he threatened the emperor with the sacred objects, Xia Yihan stepped forward to save him. The killer chased Xia Yihan away, and he disappeared after that."
"Missing?" Hu Ling'er exclaimed.
Mu Qihua nodded and continued: "Yes, he disappeared. After the disappearance, the emperor sent many troops to look for it, but there was no news. What's more, some people failed to come back. These people included the emperor's cronies.
Guard."
"Didn't come back? Was he killed by the deposed prince?" Although he knew Xia Yihan would be fine, Hu Ling'er still couldn't help but worry.
"It should be so, but ten days later, Xia Yihan came back. He appeared alone at the gate of the palace, poisoned, blind, and even disabled in martial arts. After that, the emperor named him Prince.
"
Listening to Xia Yihan's tragic situation, Hu Ling'er's heart twitched slightly, but if calculated this way, the time would be consistent with her injury?
My heart was beating faster and faster, as if something was about to come out, but I still couldn't think of anything.
"Dad, did Xia Yihan leave Lingdu again more than half a month ago?" Hu Ling'er continued to ask.
"Well... I'm not sure." Mu Qihua shook his head, and then a trace of sadness appeared on his face. He lowered his eyes and said, "At that time, your mother and I happened to be leaving for Tianyin Kingdom."
Hu Ling'er knew that Mu Qihua was thinking about her daughter again, so she quickly said: "Dad, to be honest, I met Xia Yihan more than half a month ago."
"What?" Mu Qihua suddenly raised his head and looked at Hu Ling'er, with a look of shock on his face, "Have you known Xia Yihan before?"
"Yeah." Hu Ling'er nodded, then shook her head: "Actually, I don't know him completely. I only know that he is a prince, called Prince Han, but I don't know which country he is from, so I heard him in the marriage decree.
When asked about his title and name, he was so surprised that he fainted."
Mu Qihua was stunned for a while, then murmured: "Is this... is it God's will?"
The sound of God's will actually stunned Hu Ling'er.
Is Xia Yihan really the man in purple in her dream? And the child in her belly... is also his?
A bold guess gradually formed in her mind. Xia Yihan was chased to Yin Qishan by the deposed prince's people, and then met her. The two of them worked together to eliminate the enemy, but they fell in love with each other, and then what happened at the lake happened. It's just that
Later, I don't know why she was injured and fell off the cliff, and then Xia Yihan returned to Lingdu alone.
If her guess is true, then only Xia Yihan knows the answer to this question, because she can't remember anything.
But, is there really such a coincidence in the world?
She has the kind of character that needs to be clarified when something happens, so no matter what, she has to go to Xia Yihan to find out clearly, so as not to worry about it in her heart and make blind guesses.
But of course she couldn't go as Mu Wanru.
Hu Ling'er touched her chin habitually, a hint of cunning flashed through her eyes.
Looking at her divine light, Mu Qihua, who had been ignored, had a slight smile on his lips. It seemed that this girl was going to be weird again.
The next morning, a woman dressed in black and wearing a black veil came to the door of Prince Han's Mansion.
As soon as the guard guarding the door saw her, he became vigilant and shouted: "Who are you? What are you doing in Prince Han's Mansion?"
Hu Ling'er remained silent, but took out a sign from her arms and waved it in front of them.
When the two guards saw this, they were so frightened that their legs almost weakened. Their attitude changed 180 degrees, and they quickly and respectfully said: "Miss, please wait a moment. I will go and report to the prince immediately."
Hu Ling'er raised her eyebrows proudly and looked at the sign in her hand. It turned out that the token Xia Yihan gave her was really useful.
Soon, the guard who went in to report came back and said to Hu Ling'er: "Girl, my prince invites you to come in. Please come with me."
Hu Ling'er swaggered in and saw that the prince was indeed the prince. The house he lived in was much better than that of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and even the flowers in the garden were in bloom.
"Girl, the prince is inside, please go in." While he was admiring the room, the guards' voices came to his ears. Hu Ling'er took a closer look and saw that they were already standing in front of a door.
"Qingxinyuan" looked at the three big characters above the head. This must be Xia Yihan's study.
Hu Ling'er nodded, raised her hand and knocked on the door a few times, and Xia Yihan's voice came from inside: "Come in."
Yiyan pushed the door open and went in. There was no one at the desk opposite the door. When he turned his eyes for a moment, he saw a purple figure leaning in front of the window.
The early morning sunlight poured in from the window and fell on him. On his face, the purple clothes reflected a little golden light in the sunlight, but the evil face seemed as transparent and ethereal, so beautiful that it was impossible to look directly at it.
.
"Why are you here?" Xia Yihan's cold voice sounded, and Hu Ling'er realized that she was actually absent-minded.
She looked at Xia Yihan's face in a daze, and her face was hot.
Come on, it's so embarrassing!
Fortunately, she was wearing a veil, and fortunately Xia Yihan couldn't see herself. She calmed down and walked a few steps forward: "I'm here to ask King Han for money."
Xia Yihan looked in her direction. Although his eyes were still blank, he had already clearly seen Hu Ling'er in front of him.
When he saw her dressed in black and masked face, his handsome eyebrows furrowed slightly and he couldn't help but feel doubtful in his heart.
Could it be that she was the person in black that day?
Then it’s not Ling’er anymore…
There was a burst of disappointment in his heart, and he felt very unhappy. He just said coldly: "The two-month period has only passed a few days. The last time King Benwen left you so much money, has it been used up?
Also, how did you know the identity of this king and how did you find this place?"
As soon as she finished the last word, Hu Ling'er felt a purple shadow flash in front of her eyes, and a chill hit her. When she came to her senses, Xia Yihan was already standing in front of her.
