Lin Jiao was walking supporting Zhaohe when she suddenly stopped, "Zhaohe, why don't you leave?"

Lin Jiao saw that Zhaohe had been taking care of her as a blind person for more than two months, so many habits have not changed, such as helping her get off the carriage.

Although Showa had explained the problem with her eyes that day, she was indeed blind for a while, and her field of vision was gray and she couldn't see anything clearly.Showa did not talk about this matter again, and did not want to cause the other party to worry in vain.

"I seem to see an acquaintance." Showa still maintained the previous posture.

Lin Jiao's eyes also followed her to look over the past, and now they hit the eyes on the second floor.

"Deshan..."

She didn't expect the three of them to meet together, but the current situation made it impossible for her to avoid it.

However, the two of them didn't seem to have any grudges and waved to each other.

As soon as he entered the store, a clever waiter greeted him.

"Several people are objective. The distinguished guests on the second floor invited three of you to go upstairs to talk about the past, and the accommodation for several of you has been arranged."

Lin Jiao looked at Zhao He, saw her nodding, and followed Xiao Er upstairs.

The waiter pushed open the wooden door of the private room, "Guys, please come inside."

After the three of them entered, Xiao Er closed the door lightly again.

There was a banquet table in the middle of the room, and most of the dishes on it were favorites of Lin Jiao and Zhao Heping.

Deshan sat on the soft couch by the window, meditating on the chessboard.

Showa walked over, glanced at the chess board, and took out a sunspot from the chess box.In an instant, the situation on the chessboard changed. Originally, the sunspots had nowhere to escape and their way of life was cut off, but at this moment, because of a sudden rising sunspot, it formed a line with other scattered sunspots, completely blocking the way out of the white ones.

Bai Zi was besieged instead.

Deshan put the white pieces in his hand back into the chess box, "Eldest sister is really good, even better than me in chess."

Zhaohe: "I've accepted it. There are many chess lovers in Daqi, and they often compete in roadsides, restaurants, and academies. I was fortunate to have a few masters to guide me, and I have made some progress. But my sister has no one to guide me. , it is rare to have such skill.”

Few people in Southern Qiang played Go, and Deshan learned to play Go patiently because he wanted to spend more time with Lin Jiao.

Seeing her smile, Deshan felt more and more bitter in his heart, but he refused to give in: "Who said I don't have anyone to point out? Jiaojiao, help me to see this game quickly?"

Lin Jiao was so embarrassed that she didn't know how to answer, so she forced a smile and said, "I haven't played for a long time, I'm afraid I'm not as good as you."

Zhao He picked up the chess pieces back into the chess box, and said casually: "I also taught Jiaojiao's chess skills."

Deshan's hand trembled, it turned out that she had always been a latecomer.

***

Jiang Xiaoyu sat on the table, staring at the three of them, but didn't talk about dinner, but was in a hurry.

After a day's journey, they didn't prepare tea and dry food for the convenience of travel. They were already hungry, and they had to face a table of delicacies that they could see or not eat. Naturally, they were very uncomfortable.

Jiang Xiaoyu blinked at Lin Jiao, looking aggrieved, "Sister, I'm hungry."

After her observation, among the people in the room, sister Lin Jiao was the most authoritative.

Sure enough, Lin Jiao nodded to let her eat first, Zhao He sat down on his own initiative, picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks and put it into Lin Jiao's bowl.

"eat more."

Hey, why are there two voices?

She looked up and saw that the woman who was leaning against the window just now was also sitting next to Lin Jiao. She also put the same meat into her sister's bowl and said the same thing.

What is the relationship between the three of them?

Forget it, she'd better continue cooking her own food.

The next moment, the two pieces of meat arrived in his own bowl.

Lin Jiao smiled at her softly, "Eat more."

Jiang Xiaoyu shivered, and carefully looked at the expressions of the two from the corner of his eye.

How cruel, they wouldn't kill me with their eyes.

No, even if you die, you can't be a starving ghost.

Jiang Xiaoyu hugged the bowl and planed the rice wheezingly.

When Jiang Xiaoyu was eating, Fang Jue kept looking at him.She looked over and found that the gaze came from the woman whose name she didn't know.

The woman had a round face and round eyes, and her smile was sweet, not fierce at all.

But her smile is really permeating. If you think about a girl looking at you with a motherly smile, are you afraid?

After the meal was over, Jiang Xiaoyu was about to leave, but was held back by Deshan who was sitting next to her.

"Little fish, I have something I want to talk to you about."

"With me? But I don't know you."

Deshan didn't take it seriously either, "We'll get to know each other soon."

Jiang Xiaoyu turned to Zhaohe for consultation, and this is where Zhaohe talked the most to this woman, and they should be familiar with her.

Showa nodded.

Although she doesn't like the queen, Deshan's temperament is relatively clear, and she is very relieved.

In the private room next door.

Jiang Xiaoyu sat across from Deshan in fear.

Deshan poured her a cup of tea, "I heard that both of your parents died, have you always lived alone?"

Jiang Xiaoyu raised his head, his gaze became very sharp.

They just met for the first time, how could this person check her details so clearly?

"Yes. It's just why the girl is so interested in me?"

Deshan didn't answer, got up and approached her, lifted a lock of long hair from her ear, and said after a while: "Sure enough, there is such a mark."

It was only then that Jiang Xiaoyu realized that the other party was looking at her birthmark, the black lotus, the birthmark that predicted that she would be the lone star of the evil spirit.

She slapped the opponent's hand away, and looked at Zhao He with full of vigilance.

"Your Excellency is looking for me to spy on other people's privacy?"

"Don't think of me as a bad person." Deshan rolled up a sleeve, "Maybe you should call me sister."

"Sister?"

Jiang Xiaoyu's eyes were firmly attracted by the green and transparent bird.

This bracelet is very similar to hers.

"You have such a bracelet too, don't you?"

Is she really my sister?No, there are many such bracelets in jewelry stores, just buy one at will.

However, this woman looks either rich or noble, but she herself is poor and white. What is there in her that deserves this woman's deliberate friendship?

Jiang Xiaoyu took out the bracelet from the bag, and retorted: "Aren't all bracelets the same?"

"It's different. Our bracelets are a pair, unique in the world." Showa put the bracelet on for her, "You must have never worn it before, the color of this bracelet can change with our body temperature.

In summer, it is white and cold all over. In winter, the color of this bracelet will turn crimson and warm jade, protecting you from the severe cold. "

"This bracelet is expensive at first glance. If I, a child from a poor family, wear it, I'm afraid it will cause a lot of trouble if someone sees it."

Hearing her words, Deshan couldn't help but think of how worried and terrified he was in the prison in the past few days, so he held Jiang Xiaoyu's hand tightly and comforted him: "Don't be afraid, I will protect you in the future, no one dares to find you. For your trouble, just wear it with confidence."

After wearing the bracelet for a while, the emerald green turned to light green, and there was a cool feeling on the arm.

But Jiang Xiaoyu still didn't quite believe Deshan's words. After all, this person had already figured out her details, so it was not surprising to know the effect of this bracelet.

"Did you recognize the wrong person?"

In fact, she was even more afraid of being abandoned after admitting the wrong person, so she simply extinguished that fantasy first.

"How come I can't even recognize my own sister?"

"Sisters?!"

Jiang Xiaoyu didn't believe it, "How is this possible!"

The appearance of the two of them is very different, how could they be siblings.

Deshan pointed to his right ear, which had a small red mole on it.

Jiang Xiaoyu touched her left ear, she also had a small red mole there.

"But do you think we are like brothers and sisters?"

Jiang Xiaoyu stood up straight, pointed at Deshan, and drew the height of the two of them.

Deshan sized her up, and there was indeed a big difference between the two in appearance, she looked five or six years older than Jiang Xiaoyu.

After getting Jiang Xiaoyu's information, I also doubted it, and later consulted with the witch doctor, this situation also exists.When both she and Jiang Xiaoyu were still in the mother's womb, they began to compete for the nutrition provided by the mother's body. If she was stronger, she would compete more, and Jiang Xiaoyu would get less, and her growth would be delayed.

In fact, this situation is very dangerous. If she is stronger, Jiang Xiaoyu may be starved to death.

"Don't you realize that you grow slower than other children?"

Jiang Xiaoyu did find that he grew slower than others.

She moved several times, and every time she moved, all the children of her age in the village got married, and only she remained the same as she was when she was a child.In order not to make others suspicious of her, she has to move every two years.It wasn't until her adoptive parents passed away that she couldn't bear to leave, and the villagers rejected her. She lived far away and had little contact with her, so the surrounding villagers didn't notice her abnormality.

But why didn't she grow up?

A panic rose from her heart, she held Deshan's hand, looking for the answer.

"Why can't I grow up?"

"It's all because of it."

Deshan pointed to the birthmark of Heilian under Jiang Xiaoyu's ear.

"What's wrong with it?"

"This is the poison brought out from the mother's womb. It hinders the development of your body. And because the world is ignorant, it will be called a punishment from heaven."

Deshan knew the truth about the queen's abandonment of Jiang Xiaoyu, but he was still reluctant to accept it. After looking through many classics, he finally found such an explanation.Later, he summoned the witch doctor and found that such a case had happened before, and he felt a big stone in his heart, so he came out to find his sister with peace of mind.

So, she is not the lone star of Tiansha, right?

Deshan seemed to understand the struggle and entanglement in Jiang Xiaoyu's eyes, and encouraged him: "You are not the lone star of Tiansha, you are my younger sister, the first princess of Nanqiang."

"I'm a princess?"

One moment she thought she was an unknown person who was abandoned by others, and the next moment she became the golden and precious first princess.The change in identity is so great that it can be said that the world has changed.

……

There was a burst of music from next door, beautiful and pleasant, and the two sisters went out hand in hand.

Back in the private room before, Lin Jiao was playing the piano, Zhao He was standing by the window playing the flute, the two cooperated seamlessly.

After the song ended, someone in the room made a sound.

Showa asked, "How's your talk going?"

"pretty good."

Deshan's eyes wandered between Lin Jiao and Zhaohe, "What are your plans?"

"After Xiaoyu finds her family, I will accompany Jiaojiao back to Daqi."

"Then will you come back?"

"Probably not. Daqi has a vast territory and beautiful scenery. We plan to look around. If we come across a place we like, or if we can't walk anymore, we will settle there."

Lin Jiao leaned against Zhaohe, and she looked like a little bird clinging to others.

Deshan looked quite upset, but he didn't know how to persuade him to stay.

***

At night, Deshan heard someone knocking on the door.

"Who?"

"it's me."

Lin Jiao got up and lit the oil lamp, and let Deshan into the house.

Deshan glanced at the bed and was sure that Lin Jiao was the only person living in this room, and he felt a little excited again.

"Deshan, why don't you rest?"

It is not suitable to drink tea at night, so Lin Jiao poured a cup of milk for Deshan.

Deshan clasped the cup with both hands, eyelashes drooping, "Some things are inconvenient to say during the day, so I had to come at night."

finally come.

The big stone in Lin Jiao's heart finally fell to the ground.

"Well, I also want to talk to you a little bit. So will you talk first or should I talk first?"

"Let me talk first."

She was afraid that after listening to Lin Jiao's words, she would not have the courage to speak again.

"Okay, then you talk first."

Deshan put the box in his hand on the table, took out the music box from it, and a burst of beautiful music sounded.

"You know, I'm stupid, I'm slow to learn everything, and I can't learn to play well. I can neither play the piano nor the flute, and I can't play with you, but this music box can make a nice sound .

You just think it sounds like I'm singing, okay? "

"When did you buy it?"

"A few days before the big wedding." Deshan was afraid that she would forget, and added: "It's your big wedding with me."

Lin Jiao knew that she shouldn't accept this gift, but seeing Deshan's sincere eyes, she couldn't say no to it.

She has hurt the person in front of her, but this person still treats her as sincerely as before.

She really couldn't bear to be sad for Deshan.

Seeing that she didn't explicitly refuse, Deshan knew that she had accepted it, and the joy in his heart was a little more than when he first entered the house.

"What did you want to say to me just now?"

How could Lin Jiao speak the words she had prepared earlier, she was silent for a while, then turned around and took the bundle, and found a red flower from it.

"I picked it up from the empress's mansion, and it was tied on the day of the wedding. You should keep it as a thought."

Deshan took the flower and looked at it for a while.

Time has passed for so long, and the color of this flower is no longer as bright as before, just like the time that can't go back.

"Why did you keep it?"

Deshan was ecstatic: Does she still have me in her heart?

Naturally, Lin Jiao couldn't make Deshan have any hope for her, "I just picked it up."

The little bit of joy in Deshan's heart was immediately diluted.

"It's getting late, you go back and rest."

***

After getting up in the morning, Lin Jiao heard a commotion outside, and when she went downstairs, she found that the inn that was a bit deserted yesterday suddenly became crowded.

She grabbed a shop waiter and asked, "What happened here?"

The shop clerk wiped the sweat from his forehead and said in surprise: "Guest officer, you still don't know that some bad guys sneaked into the inn last night and cut several people at once."

"Have you reported to the police? Who are the ones who were chopped off?"

"Those who suffered thousands of knives, you said it's not good to offend anyone, but you actually offended the nobles. We were the ones who got knives yesterday..."

The waiter cautiously looked around, covered his mouth with his hand and whispered, "Your Majesty."

"Your Majesty!"

"Hey, my girl, don't make a fuss! If it gets out, our store won't be able to continue."

"Little Er!" A roar came from the second floor.

"Come on, girl, I won't tell you any more, you'd better be careful."

Xiao Er hurried upstairs with hot water.

King? !Isn't that Deshan?

Lin Jiao came to her senses and ran upstairs as well.

Pushing open the door of the guest room, there were already many people inside, but the person lying on the bed was Jiang Xiaoyu, and Deshan was leaning against the head of the bed sickly with a bandage wrapped around his forehead.

"What happened last night?"

Deshan looked at her, and said a little tiredly: "Last night, an assassin broke into my house and there were some fights. Xiaoyu blocked the sword for me."

Lin Jiao stepped forward, wanting to see Xiaoyu's injury, but Zhaohe held her down and shook her head slightly.

Could there be something else hidden here?

"How is her injury?"

The witch doctor got up and replied: "Your Majesty, this girl is just frightened. The old minister prescribed a few prescriptions for calming the mind and concentrating on the mind. Just take it and it will be fine."

"Nonsense!" Deshan reprimanded with a cold face: "She is obviously seriously injured, and the assassin's sword is still poisonous. You see, her wounds are festering, why are they not serious? Quack doctor! The widow is supporting you. What's the use?"

The witch doctor immediately knelt down and begged for mercy, "Your Majesty, the old minister has been wronged. That girl is indeed not injured, not even a wound, so why talk about being poisoned?"

"You have to understand, Your Majesty attaches great importance to this savior." Zhaohe pointed aside.

The witch doctor was stunned for a while, looked at Zhaohe, and didn't know how to address the former king, "What do you mean?"

Showa nodded, "That's what you think."

The witch doctor looked at Deshan again, and Deshan said, "That's it."

The witch doctor nodded, and suddenly realized, "I understand. This girl blocked the sword with her body in order to save the king. She was critically injured and narrowly escaped death."

"Well, that's right. Go down."

After the idlers left, Jiang Xiaoyu lifted the quilt, Gulu stood up, took the fan and vomited bitterly: "It's so hot to death."

Lin Jiao was confused, "What's going on?"

Why is everyone so relaxed, and she is the only one who is nervous?

Jiang Xiaoyu held her hand, stuck out his tongue, "I made my sister worry, it was just acting."

acting?

Deshan explained to her: "You don't need to help Xiaoyu find her family anymore, I am her older sister. But for some reasons, it is not easy to recognize her back, I can only recognize her as a righteous sister, so I thought so This way, there shouldn’t be any objection to changing the title of a princess for the sake of saving him.”

"Sisters?"

"Yes."

"You know too?" Lin Jiao pushed Zhaohe.

Showa shrugged, "I'm the same as you, I only know now."

"Then why were you so calm before?"

When Lin Jiao came in, she saw blood all over the floor, her heart skipped a beat.

"Do you smell the smell in this house?"

"fishy."

"That's right, it's all chicken blood, not human blood at all. Besides, have you seen anyone who bleeds so much and is safe?"

……

Jiang Xiaoyu followed Deshan back to the Southern Qiang Palace, and Lin Jiao finally boarded the boat back home.
