Chapter 1388 I always feel like someone is staring at us
Entering Chunhe Alley again, the father and daughter arrived in front of Yuniang's mansion together.
Xia Baoer bent down and put down the civet cat.
The originally lazy civet cat fell to the ground, and its eyes suddenly became sharp.
It sniffed around, then fled and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Xia Hongmo doubts: "Baoer, how can you put it away."
Xia Baoer just smiled: "It has a fierce temperament and is not easy to bring in. What should I do if it scares Yu Niang?"
"Don't worry, Dad. Although the little flower grows in the mountains and forests, it is very spiritual. When we leave, just call it."
Xia Hongmo heard his words and didn't take it to heart.
The Praetorian Guards were hidden nearby in civilian clothes to protect the emperor and princess.
But Eunuch Dequan was still guarding the door of the house.
Yuniang heard the sound and came out from the door.
At this time, less than half of the evening sky was made up of embers burned by the red sunlight.
Mixed with large swaths of deep blue night light, it dispels the sultry heat of early summer during the day.
Brings a hint of cool refreshment.
The door was opened by Yu Niang from the inside.
Her small face as big as a palm was immediately revealed.
Yuniang's eyes turned, looking a little smug, which made Xia Baoer slightly unhappy.
But the little girl didn't show any emotion on her face, she just smiled lightly as a greeting.
Today, Yuniang is wearing a close-fitting crescent white dress and a white gauze-like shawl.
She looks voluptuous, petite and dewy.
However, there is a strangeness everywhere that is different from ordinary people.
Yu Niang gracefully blessed herself and saluted Xia Hongmo and Xia Baoer.
"Your Majesty and the princess have arrived just in time. Hot tea is ready. Please come in and enjoy the beauty of the epiphyllum blooming."
Xia Baoer smiled lightly, her red lips full of color: "I'm going to bother you tonight."
She held her father's arm and walked in.
The door was closed behind him, and Mr. Dequan stood guard at the door. The sky was dark, and the stars and moon were emitting dim light.
Yu Niang didn't seem to like lighting lanterns very much. In the huge mansion, there were only two huge yellow lanterns hanging from the corridor.
The night wind blew by, and the sound in the courtyard was rustling.
The look on Yu Niang's face when she looked back occasionally seemed very strange.
But both father and daughter looked calm.
Xia Hongmo didn't notice anything unusual, not to mention he thought that the imperial guards he brought were all top-notch masters.
Xia Baoer, on the other hand, was naturally confident and not at all panicked.
"Your Majesty, Your Royal Highness Princess, please sit on the porch for a while, and I will bring the refreshments."
Xia Baoer nodded and sat on the left and right sides of the small table with Xia Hongmo.
There are rockeries and flowing water in the courtyard, but there is not a single fish in the pond.
Wherever the moonlight shines, there is darkness everywhere.
Xia Hongmo felt uncomfortable after sitting for a while.
"Why is this mansion so cold?"
He also looked back at the dark corner behind him: "It always feels like someone is staring at us."
Xia Baoer sat upright, her black hair hanging on her chest along her soft white neck.
The little girl's eyebrows are curved, and her pearl-like eyes are like water.
There seemed to be a power wherever she was.
After listening to Xia Hongmo's words, Xia Baoer smiled: "Isn't this house where Daddy gave Yu Niang a rest?"
"Yeah, I've never heard anything wrong with this house before. Bao'er, if you're scared, just sit closer to daddy. We'll go back after watching Epiphyllum."
Xia Baoer nodded.
The wind had picked up at night, and the moonlight was shrouded in thin clouds, making the huge yellow lantern on the porch sway even more unstable.
There were many gray shadows, as if it were haunted.
