Chapter 76: Going to dig out her Wuzhishan
Chaoyuan and Xiao Nanjia stared at Xiao Baojing expressionlessly.
Xiao Baojing: "..."
You are young, you are in bloom and the moon is under the moon, what is going on with this chilling atmosphere!
Where are the promised male and female protagonists!
Her smile was about to burst, and she said in a trembling voice: "Well, the Imperial Master also said that he wanted someone to hug him. Your Royal Highness the Fourth Princess, look at how well you and the Imperial Master, a talented and beautiful girl, are a perfect match. Do you want to Don’t think about——”
Xiao Nanjia: "If you say one more word, I will tear your mouth apart."
Xiao Baojing silently closed his mouth and put up his hands timidly.
Lu Yu'an quietly emerged from Xiao Nanjia's shadow and said warmly: "Miss Xiao, let me take you back to your room."
Xiao Baojing was deeply moved.
What a good man!
Although Xiao Nanjia is a bit fierce, Mr. Lu next to her is actually a good person!
She glanced at Xiao Nanjia and Chaoyuan worriedly, seeing that they seemed to have something to discuss.
In other words, at this stage, the two of them are temporarily allies.
Maybe there was a problem with the distribution of benefits, so the Imperial Master later killed Xiao Nanjia, right?
Lu Yu'an walked in front holding a lantern. Because he was taking care of Xiao Baojing, he didn't walk very fast.
Xiao Baojing asked curiously: "Has the fourth princess always been so fierce? Aren't you afraid of serving her?"
"Not afraid." Lu Yu'an had a gentle smile on his face, "I have been with her since I was seven years old. She has a very gentle nature."
Gentle...
Xiao Baojing couldn't think of Xiao Nanjia's gentle look even if she tried hard.
She looked at Lu Yu'an's tall and graceful back, and suddenly a gossip arose in her heart: "I have always been curious, would a personal guard like Mr. Lu hide in her shadow at night to protect her? ?”
Lu Yuan: "Yes."
Xiao Baojing bit her lip: "But..."
Lu Yu'an looked back at her with a gentle smile: "Miss Xiao wants to say that men and women cannot be intimate, right?"
Xiao Baojing nodded sheepishly.
Lu Yu'an: "I am a eunuch, so I don't have to worry about this."
The carved corridor of Mansudae is very long.
It was deserted at night, except for the big red palace lanterns hanging there.
Lu Yu'an's shadow fell on the luxurious gilded lotus marble floor tiles, and his slim, slender figure stood alone.
Xiao Baojing was dumbfounded: "Eunuch...eunuch? Is...is that what I think it means?"
"Yes." Lu Yu'an's eyebrows were jade-like, and his tone was still gentle and calm, "I grew up with Your Highness since childhood. I became a eunuch when I was sixteen years old, and I still always accompany Her Highness to protect her safety. Therefore, I and Your Highness, there is no incompatibility between men and women.”
Xiao Baojing tightened his hands and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have mentioned this."
Lu Yu'an bent his eyes: "What's the point? I'm very satisfied if I can stay with His Highness."
Xiao Baojing still felt very sad.
She never expected that Mr. Lu, whom she met in Jiange, would be as gentle and gentle as jade, humble and polite, but he would be a man with an incomplete body.
While he was talking, he had already arrived at Datongpu where the monsters lived.
Lu Yuan suddenly said: "Miss Xiao, is the food at Wanshoutai pretty good?"
"Yeah!" Xiao Baojing nodded vigorously, "The food is very delicious!"
"You should eat more vegetables and less food." Lu Yu'an reminded. Facing the girl's confused eyes, he paused and simply explained, "You are growing taller at your age, so you need to eat more meat and eggs."
Xiao Baojing scratched his head.
She is a puppet. No matter how much meat she eats, she won't be able to grow any longer, right?
…
Lu Yu'an returned to Chongguang Hall with a lantern.
This is the dormitory where Xiao Nanjia rests.
She had discussed matters with Chaoyuan and had just returned. The palace was brightly lit with candles, and the maids were lined up holding trays. The trays contained the newly cut palace skirts this autumn. They were all colorful and gorgeous at a glance.
A palace maid said respectfully: "These are the new clothes that the Queen has carefully prepared for Your Highness. Tomorrow, at the Wanshou Tai banquet, General Chu will be there in person to see the wedding with Your Highness. The Queen wants His Highness to dress up carefully in order to win the favor of General Chu .”
Xiao Nanjia picked up a palace dress casually.
The makeup is made of satin, exquisite and complicated.
She sneered lightly and threw the palace skirt on the ground with disdain.
The maids looked at each other.
Lu Yu'an said: "You all stand down."
The maids quickly put down their trays and filed out with their heads lowered.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Xiao Nanjia sat by the window, overlooking the lights of Ye Jing: "She wanted to marry me to Chu Liangji just for the 300,000 soldiers and horses in his father's hands. Things happened to her maternal grandfather's family one after another, and she was afraid of her brother's heir apparent. Her position was affected, so she couldn't wait to push me out to marry Chu Liangji to consolidate the emperor's position as the prince. You see, she naturally planned to give birth to me for the emperor's sake. "
Lu Yu'an couldn't comment on their mother and daughter's affairs.
He brewed a cup of hot almond tea and sent it to Xiao Nanjia. He then removed the hairpin for her and carefully massaged her temples and head.
The tea is fragrant.
Xiao Nanjia's black hair hung down like flowing satin, and her charming face was hidden behind her long hair. The light and shadow of the bright lamp outlined a bit of violence. It was not until she closed her eyes that the long and thin eyelashes covering her eyes were slightly neutralized. The aloof temperament of killing and decisiveness made her look a little more stubborn and paranoid that is unique to girls.
Lu Yu'an lowered his eyes, his dark pupils hiding complicated and unspeakable heartache.
The pads of his fingers were warm and delicate, just like hundreds of nights in the past, gradually relieving her sleepiness and fatigue.
"I won't do what she wants." Xiao Nanjia suddenly said, "Others complain that they can't help themselves, so they choose to follow the crowd, but I insist on letting my fate be left to me, and I want to break out of her Five Finger Mountain. I, Xiao In Nanjia’s life, don’t follow the path designed by others. I will never become a stepping stone for others. From a young age, I have been the best in reading, riding and shooting. I am better than the emperor brother. Since one of me and the emperor brother has to climb up, then that one. Why can’t it be me?”
"Your Highness has formed an alliance with the Imperial Preceptor?"
"Are you scared?"
"If I were afraid, I would have left Your Highness when I was sixteen. I will be Your Highness's shadow in this life."
"Maybe I am going to take a deviant path. Maybe my means to achieve my goals can even be called cruel and cruel, just like how I treated the monsters who built Mansudae. So, aren't you afraid?"
Lu Yuan knelt down on one knee beside her embroidered shoes.
He raised his head and stared at Xiao Nanjia's cold and paranoid face.
He rubbed away the girl's frown, like buds blooming in the wind and frost.
He told her seriously: "The shadow will always be loyal to its master, no matter what her background is."
…
Early next morning.
When Xiao Baojing was helping Yaoyao comb her hair, she saw the demon subduing master come in with a roster, read out a few names, and said: "You guys can retire, come with me to get the money!"
The spirits whose names were read quickly stood up and packed up their small bundles excitedly.
An envious voice came from the side: "They have been working in Mansudae for two years. Although their heads are gray and bent over with fatigue, according to regulations, they can get twenty taels of silver when they retire!"
Xiao Baojing was curious: "You have only been working for two years and you are already tired and bent over?"
"Hey! What's the point?" The spirit said disdainfully, "We are all spirits anyway. If you go out and practice for a while, you will be back to your original state! Every month, spirits will be too tired to work, and they will retire one after another, and then new ones will be replaced. The spirits will be added, you will know after you stay for a while, as long as you can get the money!”
