But she didn't think she was at fault. She didn't say anything bad, right? She didn't say it to him, she just wanted to comfort Yi'er and piece together for him the blank image of his mother in his memory. He ran away on his own.
I came over and overheard it. Can I blame her for this?
Well, if she was at fault, it was that she shouldn't have interfered in his housework. After all, she was just an outsider. Thinking of the word "outsider", her heart twitched slightly, as if someone was holding a sharp thorn and stabbing her.
It felt like a prick on her beating heart, with a slight stinging sensation, but it returned to normal in an instant, as if the numbness was just her illusion.
The two of them remained silent. The horse beneath them was obviously a good horse, and it ran very fast carrying the two of them. After a while, they left the carriage far behind.
The sun has slowly risen, and the warm light shines on the face, which is very comfortable. Chu Qiluo twisted, and more force came from her back. Ye Langxie held her in his arms with one hand and asked her to move.
No.
What on earth was he going to do? Chu Qiluo looked up and could only see his tense jawline. She was a little discouraged and probably angry. She leaned into his arms. Although the posture was awkward, it was okay to lean in like this.
It was quite comfortable. She closed her eyes. Her head, which had not slept for a few days, was a little dizzy and swaying. She actually fell asleep slowly.
Suddenly, Ye Langxie thought she was planning to do something strange again. He lowered his head and glared at her, only to realize that Chu Qiluo had closed her eyes tightly and was breathing steadily. He was holding her in his arms with force like this.
Fell asleep.
He suddenly let out all his anger. He adjusted her position in a funny and good-natured way so that she could sleep more peacefully, while slowly slowing down the speed so that the carriage could catch up.
The sun was shining brightly, and the trees on the roadside were all dyed. It was already late autumn. He squinted his eyes and looked into the distance. He left the capital. From now on, the mountains are high and the sea is vast. Next year, she will still be lying peacefully in his arms, sleeping for who knows what time.
?
He knew it was just an extravagant hope. So he gently put her into the carriage, covered her with a thin quilt and turned around to go out. He had always been casual and free-spirited and did not like riding in soft cars. What he was suitable for was commanding thousands of troops and galloping in this place.
The prosperous world!
Perhaps it had been too long since she had had a good sleep, so Chu Qiluo actually slept for a whole day and night. She opened her eyes and looked at the yellowish curtain, her mind a little sluggish.
Where is this?
A chuckle came from the side: "Look how stupid you are, you can compete with your young lady."
Recognizing Lu Chun's voice, she sat up and snorted: "Lu Chun, don't use your exclusive words on me."
"Ah, miss, you're awake!" Dong Ling ran over happily and pulled up the curtain: "You have been sleeping all day and all night. I was so scared at the time that I thought the prince had knocked you out, but I found out later... haha
.”
Lu Chun winked and smiled: "It must be the prince's broad mind that makes her fall asleep!"
…
Chu Qiluo was unmoved and got up to take a shower. After washing herself and feeling refreshed, Shi Shiran replied: "Feel free to envy you. I don't blame you."
Lu Chun and Dong Ling, who were smiling proudly, held their breath in their throats and could not recover for a long time.
But——Chu Qiluo picked up the blue piece lying beside the bed and frowned: "What is this?" The silk under her fingers seemed like mist, and it was smooth in hand. I thought it would be extremely thin and beautiful when worn on the body.
It's just that their group is going to Maple City to meet up with Ye Langxie's bodyguards. Is it appropriate for her to be dressed so... so seductively?
Lu Chun tilted her head triumphantly: "I picked it for you. How do you like it? It's beautiful!"
"Beautiful." Chu Qiluo waved her hand and put it on the bed: "Dong Ling, bring me that moon-white gown."
"Miss!" Dong Ling was also anxious and pulled her sleeves: "I think Lu Chun is right. That prince always bullies you, so you should show him some strength!"
"Color?" Chu Qiluo smiled and pointed to the tulle: "If you ask me to go out dressed like this, will it show the color to others, or will it embarrass myself?"
Lu Chun's face, who was standing next to her, gradually darkened. She glared at Chu Qiluo and gritted her teeth: "You put it on for me! He is going to meet his subordinates this time. You should dress more delicately.
His subordinates won’t look down on you, what’s wrong with that? I think it’s very feasible!”
"His subordinates will also be my subordinates." As for looking down on her, she believed that no one would dare to look down on her because of her simple clothes. Chu Qiluo began to flip through her baggage, trying to find something to wear.
A hand stretched out from the side and held her arm tightly. She raised her head and looked at Lu Chun helplessly: "Lu Chun, why do you have to wear this?"
Lu Chun bit her lip, pressed her hard with her hands, and refused to give in. Tears slowly filled her eyes, and the teardrops rolled around in her eyes but never fell.
Seeing her like this, Chu Qiluo was also a little strange, but why did she behave like this with a piece of clothing? Her fingertips had already touched the coat she usually likes to wear.
Dong Ling, who was standing beside Lu Chun, saw her fingertips moving slightly. She looked at Lu Chun and then at Qi Luo, and sobbed loudly: "Miss, I think you are wrong this time! Sister Lu Chun, in order to give
You bought this dress and even pawned it off as a personal jade pendant. She said that if you dress poorly, so many generals under the prince will look down on you, so..." Before she could finish her words, tears fell.
Jade pendant. Chu Qiluo's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly pulled out her hand to strike at Lu Chun's neck. Sure enough, the jade pendant that Lu Chun had hung around her neck since she was a child had disappeared. Lu Chun had cherished that jade pendant since she was a child.
…
Her face sank and she shouted: "Where did you pawn it? How much did you pawn it?"
"Li Ji's pawnshop on the corner of the town." Lu Chun muttered: "That profiteer is only willing to give fifty taels..."
She had studied ancient jade at that time, and the one hanging around Luchun's neck was Hetian jade! The purest Hetian jade, with its carefully carved peony patterns, was so exquisite that she couldn't put it down every time she looked at it. It was more than worth ten thousand gold.
It was only fifty taels? Chu Qiluo immediately put on her coat casually and rolled out like a whirlwind. Lu Chun and Dong Ling looked at each other and followed.
Because Chu Qiluo was walking so fast, they had no choice but to use Qinggong to follow them all the way. However, Chu Qiluo did not go straight to the street corner, but entered a firecracker and fireworks store. What was she doing?
As if he remembered something, Lu Chun touched his hand and said excitedly: "Hurry! Follow! There's that good-looking profiteer!"
At Li Ji's Pawn Shop, the shopkeeper stood on one side. The owner was holding the jade pendant and clicking his tongue in surprise, full of admiration.
But they didn't want to hear the sound of smashing outside. The two people immediately approached the screen and took a look. There was no mess outside as they imagined. They didn't know how the noise was made. There was a little beauty from Xiaojiabiyu sitting in the front seat, but next to them
The two maids standing there were even more handsome than her, and their posture was a bit subtle.
The boss frowned and hid the jade in his sleeve: "Go and see what's going on."
The shopkeeper took the order and came forward. He saw that although the girl was dressed in simple clothes, she had a temperament that was not angry but powerful. She was steady and self-possessed at a young age. She saw that he was approaching with a serious face and was not timid at all. He knew in his heart that this was probably a young lady from a wealthy family out for fun.
His words became much gentler: "May I ask, Miss..."
"You are just the shopkeeper. I have nothing to say to you." Chu Qiluo said expressionlessly, "Call your boss to come out."
