Bai Ranran put her hand on his warm and dry palm, stepped down the stairs, looked at the pitch-black place below, looked at him and said with a smile: "Your Highness is not trying to trick me into a small dark room and lock me up, is he?"
Mo Shaohua waited for her to come to him, inserted the torch into the hole in the wall again, dimmed a spot on the wall, and slowly closed the secret door.
He looked sideways at Bai Ranran with a gentle smile, "Guan is also a small dark room in Prince Guan's Mansion. I don't come here often. What should I do if I miss Ran'er?"
Mo Shaohua took Bai Ranran's hand again and led her to continue.
"Hey, you really have this idea. It looks like I have to find an opportunity to run away."
Bai Ranran smiled and joked with him to dissipate her fear of the dark.
Mo Shaohua squeezed her little hand and deliberately gritted his teeth at her, "You dare. If you dare to run away, I will have someone build a cage to lock you in my bedroom."
Bai Ranran snorted coldly and cursed: "Pervert."
Mo Shaohua smiled fondly and did not answer any more words.
When he turned his head to look into the darkness, the smile in his eyes disappeared, his deep eyes were dim and his thin lips were pursed tightly.
After going down the stairs, there was a corridor, and the surrounding area was pitch black. With only the torch in Mo Shaohua's hand, Bai Lianran could not see clearly the surrounding environment.
There was an inexplicable sense of oppression in the dark environment in the distance, which made Bai Lianran feel extremely uncomfortable.
She instinctively approached Mo Shaohua, her shoulders pressed tightly against him, and the hand in his palm was sweating uncontrollably.
Mo Shaohua felt that something was wrong with Bai Ranran, so he let go of her hand and hugged her shoulders instead.
He asked gently: "What's wrong? Ran'er is afraid of the dark?"
In this closed and dark environment, his gentle voice made Bai Lianran feel at ease.
She raised her eyes and looked at Mo Shaohua's handsome face reflected in the firelight, and shook her head at him, "It's okay, I'm just a little resistant to the closed dark environment."
Mo Shaohua hugged her shoulders tightly, lowered his head and kissed her on the forehead, "Don't be afraid, I'm here. Let's go back and ride over."
This secret passage was slightly closer to that side and was also hidden, so he chose to go there.
It wasn't impossible to ride there on horseback, but it was too cold outside, and he was worried about the cold weather.
Moreover, it is easy to expose your whereabouts.
He was about to turn around with Bai Elephant when Bai Elephant's little hands grabbed the clothes around his waist, "It's okay, I'm not afraid as long as you are here."
Because of her childhood, she has some shadows about this dark and unfamiliar environment.
With Mo Shaohua by her side, she felt very relieved, and her panicked heart slowly calmed down.
"Is it really possible?"
Mo Shaohua lowered his head to observe Bai Linran's expression, and was relieved when he saw her nodding to him with a smile on her lips.
The firelight reflected in her amber eyes and her trust in him made him feel a warm feeling in his heart.
It was unusually quiet in the tunnel, and the breathing of the two people could be heard clearly. Bai Lianran was looking forward to seeing the person in her heart.
She felt that she trusted Mo Shaohua too much.
If he took her and sold her now, wouldn't it be impossible for her to escape?
But for some reason, she just believed in him, believed in his feelings for her, believed in everything he said, and believed that he would not do anything to hurt her.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help laughing.
This may be the mentality of giving her a little love and she will give him her life.
After all, no one has ever loved her so firmly.
Mo Shaohua's arm on her shoulder was heavy and warm, protecting her completely and making her feel very safe.
However, I don't know if it was her misunderstanding, but his eyes seemed a little sad.
Her little hand attached to Mo Shaohua's hand on his shoulder and squeezed it gently.
Mo Shaohua seemed to have come to his senses. He lowered his head and saw her worried eyes, and smiled reassuringly, "I'm fine, I just thought of something."
He sighed and said slowly: "I haven't seen her for more than two months."
After a long moment of silence, he smiled self-deprecatingly, "Ran'er, actually, my mother is not a concubine."
His voice was hollow, carrying extremely complex emotions.
"I know, I guessed it."
Bai Lanran looked at him with a smile in her eyes, and the warmth in her palm spread on the back of his hand.
She didn't know it at first, but once when Mo Shaohua talked about his mother to her, he called her mother, and the look on his face when he talked about concubine Shu and the emperor, combined with some small details, Bai Liran came up with it.
Suspect.
She even suspected that Mo Shaohua was not the emperor's son.
Mo Shaohua was slightly surprised and praised her with a smile, "Ran'er is so smart."
Ever since he confirmed his feelings for Bai Linran, he never wanted to hide anything from her, and he was the truest version of himself in front of him.
He just didn't expect that Bai Liran could guess it just based on those clues.
Bai Ranran looked at his face and asked: "So, you are taking me to see your mother, right?"
"Um."
Mo Shaohua nodded, "I think I should take you to meet her. I think she will want to meet you."
Moreover, he also had something to tell her.
After that, Mo Shaohua didn't speak anymore, and Bai Liran didn't ask about his mother's affairs.
Anyway, we met soon, so there was no need to ask too many questions.
Did he really recognize her?
The two of them walked in the secret passage for more than half an hour before they found the stairs to go up.
Mo Shaohua carefully led Bai Lanran up the stairs, inserted the torch into the hole in the cave wall, and opened the secret door.
The secret door slowly opened, and light came in.
After walking out of the secret passage, Mo Shaohua let go of Bai Ranran's hand and closed the door of the secret passage.
Bai Lanran took advantage of this time to take stock of the environment.
It is an ordinary and simple study room, so simple that it only has a simple desk and bookcase, and the lampstand is also made of very simple copper.
Looking at the carved doors and windows, they seem to be old. Although they are not broken, they have a sense of antiquity.
Mo Shaohua turned around and saw Bai Linran looking at the room. He held her hand and raised the corners of his lips at her, "This is just a side room. She lives in the main room. I will take you to see her right now.
"
There was a door on the wall between the side room and the main room, and Mo Shaohua led Bai Lunran through it.
He was about to knock on the door when he heard a man's voice coming from the room.
"Shu Qing, why are you so cold to me? Now, don't you even want to talk to me?"
The voice was a little helpless, a little angry, and a little forbearing.
When Mo Shaohua heard that voice, his eyes suddenly darkened, he covered Bai Ranran's lips, and made a silent gesture towards her.
He came close to Bai Lanran's ear and whispered: "It's the emperor."
He had never met the emperor before, but he didn't expect that he would meet him today.
Bai Linran nodded to him, and Mo Shaohua released his hand covering her lips, frowning and listening to the movement next door.
Suddenly there was the sound of Buddhist beads scattered on the ground next door, and the angry voice of Emperor Chengde, "What is it about him that you can't forget, and how am I inferior to him? It's been more than twenty years, and you haven't even given me a good look.
, if it had been anyone else, I would have let her die eight hundred times."
Emperor Chengde's angry voice was mixed with deep unwillingness.
He couldn't figure out what was so good about that man? It was obvious that the three of them had grown up together, and it was obvious that he loved her first.
Mo Shaohua's hands clenched into fists, his face became a little ugly, his eyes were dim and unclear, and his expression looked a little scary.
Bai Lanran's small hand was placed on the back of his hand, and the other hand was wrapped around his waist, giving him silent comfort.
She didn't know about the entanglement between Mo Shaohua's mother and the emperor, but she didn't want to see Mo Shaohua sad.
"Since Your Majesty values me so much, how about making me the Queen and Qin'er the Crown Prince? Can Your Majesty do it?"
A female voice, as cold as frost, came from the next door. The voice was unusually cold, like the cold wind carrying snow in the twelfth lunar month, but it also had an unearthly and ruthless indifference. This chapter has been completed!
