Ruan Xixi was peeling the melon seeds in her hands, and stacked the melon seeds one by one.Miao Jun was surprised and asked, "Why do you only peel but not eat?"

Ruan Xixi smiled and pushed the plate over, "Brother Miao, you can eat."

Miao Jun said, "The operas in Anyang Mansion are quite good. It is said that opera masters often come here. Since it is out today, let's listen to an opera first."

"Ah."

The drums and gongs sounded on the stage downstairs, and a black-faced general with a flag on his back appeared on the stage, attracting applause from the audience.Ruan Xixi felt bored watching it for a while, and turned her head to look out of the window. There were no traces of Lin Pin and Princess Si on the street.While feeling melancholy and bewildered, I saw a figure in a green shirt passing by the gate downstairs.Ruan Xixi's right eyelid twitched, thinking something was wrong.He hastily grabbed the railing and looked downstairs, and sure enough, he saw Lin Pin coming with Princess Si.

The lobby downstairs was noisy, so they would naturally not give in, and they would definitely come upstairs to sit.Ruan Xixi hurriedly returned to her seat and said to Miao Jun, "Master Miao, Lin Hu...Master Lin and the princess are here, run!"

Miao Jun looked around and said, "If they come up from downstairs, we will definitely meet them when we go down now. Since we have met, why don't we all sit at the same table and explain with me, Master Lin will not blame us."

Ruan Xixi said, "I'll go take a rest."

Miao Jun just got up to follow, but hesitated for a while.Ruan Xixi turned her head and said, "Master Miao, don't you even have to follow Xiaojie?"

Miao Jun smiled, "Miss Ruan, go and come back quickly."

Ruan Xixi thought to herself: I'm not coming back!Then he ran wildly, looked forward, and saw that Lin Pin had already exposed half of his head from the stairs, looked left and right, helplessly holding on to the railing of the corridor, flipped neatly, and landed on the other side of the back-shaped corridor. one end.Unexpectedly, his neck felt cold, and he looked down, and saw a sharp sword with a cold light on his shoulder.

There was a chill on Ruan Xixi's back. With my skills, I have no strength to resist?

This is an independent small room cut off by a wall, in which sat a young man in a blue gown, drinking tea with his right hand.Junxiu appearance, proud demeanor.The white wrist was exposed from the sleeve, and a cold light flashed across the corner of the narrow Danfeng eyes after catching a glimpse of the sudden figure.The left hand held the narrow and long sword without shaking.

There is also a woman who is also covered with a veil sitting there. This woman's eyebrows seem to be naturally affectionate, her eyebrows are curved, her hair is neatly tied, and she is looking at herself in amazement.

"Sorry, I'm just passing by... I'm about to leave now." Ruan Xixi pushed away the sword on her neck, turned her head and found that the exit of this single room was facing the direction she came from. When you open the door, you will definitely see Miao Jun's table.He paused in his footsteps, turned his head and asked cheekily, "My lord, miss, is there another door?"

The young man withdrew his sword and said coldly, "No."

The woman's eyes swept across the faces of the young man and Ruan Xixi, her eyes darkened and said, "Only this door can go out, why did the girl turn over from that side? Could it be that she is hiding from someone?"

Ruan Xixi stood on the edge of the railing again and looked down, but luckily it wasn't too high.Now everyone is admiring the play on the stage, if he slides down the hanging silk cloth, he may be able to keep track of the unknown.

So he made up his mind, bowed his hands to the two people in the private room and said, "Thank you for not worrying about this crisis. If there is a destiny in the future, I will explain today's matter to you when we meet again."

The woman blocked the way, "Hey—" but she saw that Ruan Xixi had already landed with her silk cloth in her arms.He turned his head and asked the young master, "Mr. Gu, do you know this girl?"

Mr. Gu shook his head indifferently, "I don't know."

The woman smiled coquettishly, "That's weird. I thought that Mr. Gu Lei of Heguang Villa was ruthless in his dealings with others, but now that he encountered such a thing in Anyang Mansion, you didn't force him to ask her where she came from. It's not in line with your past style."

Gu Lei glanced at her, his cold light was piercing to the bone.

The woman felt fear when she met his eyes, and she became more and more sure that Gu Lei knew this girl, but she didn't dare to continue to ask. If she angered Gu Lei, it would be like offending Heguang Villa, without the support of Heguang Villa How can I still go to this martial arts conference?If you don't go to the martial arts conference, you won't be able to gain the status that comes with being the daughter of the martial arts leader Yuan Shi.Then the opportunity to change fate brought by the jade pendant picked up by the small river in the outskirts of Mochun Mansion would be lost in front of his eyes.

"If you don't want to answer, I won't ask, but Mr. Gu is handsome and the young owner of Heguang Villa. He has a bright future. I don't know how many girls have been captured in the martial arts. They want to marry Mr. Gu." What about the young master. Even our girls in Fengyuelou have heard of the prestige of Mr. Gu..." As she spoke, she clung onto Gu Lei's shoulder softly and wrapped her arms around Gu Lei. Lei's neck clung to him like a water snake.

No matter how powerful you Gu Lei is, you are still just a man.I don't believe that with my beauty, I can't shake you a bit? !

Gu Lei looked at her coldly, without any warmth in his eyes, "Xie Xiaorao, I have said many times, from now on you are not allowed to mention Fengyuelou again."

Xie Xiaorao's eyes dimmed, and her slender fingers twirled the thin cup and said, "Got it."

Ruan Xixi managed to avoid Lin Pin, and thought carefully about Gu Lei who had just met, and couldn't help laughing.Because when he was a child, Gu Lei was definitely not as handsome and slender as he is now. When he was a child, he was a very chubby little man, as chubby as a meatball, so that he couldn't tell his facial features at all.He always likes to follow behind him, but once he kicked down the creek and wet his clothes, he didn't dare to tell Uncle Gu.

Unexpectedly, he became so handsome when he grew up. Uncle Gu must be very happy.

She walked out of the teahouse, feeling at a loss for a while.Now that Lin Pin and Miao Jun are gone, she is free again.But this freedom is not real freedom after all. There is a heavy stone in her heart, which has prevented her from breathing smoothly for three years. Sometimes she really feels that when will all this end, she wants to end it as soon as possible.

"Xixi—" A steady voice came from behind.

Looking back, Ruan Xixi saw the big painted face on the stage that she saw in the teahouse just now, stared into his eyes for a moment, and said with a chuckle, "Uncle Gu, don't come here without any problems."

Gu Jinpei said, "I knew you, a girl, would recognize her. That brat was still in a daze when he saw me, and almost wanted to fight me. Raising a son is worse than raising a well-behaved daughter..."

Tears welled up in Ruan Xixi's eyes. Seeing that there was no one in the alley, she threw herself into Gu Jinpei's arms and said coquettishly, "Uncle Gu, let me hug you for a while and rest for a while, I'm tired..."

Gu Jinpei stroked her hair lovingly, "Girl, you have suffered."

Ruan Xixi wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with Gu Jinpei's clothes, raised her head and forced a smile, "Uncle Gu, is the martial arts conference settled?"

"I'm doing business, so don't worry, girl." Gu Jinpei mused, "It's just... his memorial day is only a few days away, when do you want to worship him? I'll send someone to meet you."

"No need for Uncle Gu, I will arrange the worship myself. The fewer people there should be, the better. It is more convenient for me to move alone."

"What's happened to Lin Pin recently?"

"She brought Princess Si back, probably because she was afraid of danger, so she has been using Princess Si's guards to protect her."

Gu Jinpei frowned, "Have you thought it through? If you lead Lin Pin into the game, if you take this step, there is no room for regret."

Ruan Xixi's eyes were clear and bright, with a stubbornness, "Well, I won't go back on my word."

When Lin Pin walked upstairs, he saw Miao Jun in the corner at a glance, and couldn't help looking around for Ruan Xixi's shadow, but Ruan Xixi was not there.Lin Pin's tense heart was a little silent, and the light that was originally bright in his eyes dimmed instantly.

she is not here.

Did you run away, or will you come back?

Lin Pin sat down and looked out the window, but didn't take the initiative to ask Miao Jun about Ruan Xixi's whereabouts.She originally wanted to give Ruan Xixi a chance to choose by taking advantage of today's events.She knew that Miao Jun alone would not be able to stop that weird little girl.

Looking at the plate of peeled melon seeds on the table, Lin Pin was stunned, and reached out to pick up one and ate it.Looking at his face, Miao Jun knew that she was in a bad mood.Ruan Xixi obviously escaped. Although Miao Jun had the opportunity to catch her, but because of his inner feelings, he thought of letting Ruan Xixi go, and he would bear the consequences.But Lin Pin didn't mention it for a long time, and Miao Jun didn't dare to speak rashly.

Lin Pin took out an oil-paper-wrapped thing from his pocket, and unfolded it in front of the table.When Miao Jun saw it, he was astonished, and thought to himself: Isn't this the other white-flour sugar man made by the old man before? It turned out that it was bought by Lin Xiao.

On second thought, since Lin Pin had bought this white flour sugar figurine, he must have seen another one too.But according to the temperament of this treacherous minister, it is really strange that he didn't smash up his shop!

Princess Si has been quietly drinking tea with Lin Pin all the time.She also guessed what Lin Pin was thinking. He took her out and only left Miao Jun to look at Ruan Xixi, in order to give Ruan Xixi a chance to escape.

In the past, Lin Pin never gave such an opportunity to those who liked him.

Among those women who left their hometowns or were married long ago, which one of them ever made this hard-hearted person shaken in the slightest?In Lin Pin's mind, only the Son of Heaven is the one she can rely on and rely on.These women are her way of allegiance to the emperor.

"It's raining." Lin Pin said suddenly, there were three or four melon seeds left on the plate.The rain outside was pattering, neither too heavy nor too small.Lin Pin's eyes looked out of the street, and as time went by, the light in her eyes gradually disappeared.

Princess Si looked at her profile, and always felt that from Lin Pin's face, she saw some sadness that was not easy for outsiders to notice.

Looking back, at this time of year, Lin Pin would look particularly sad and weak.For a few days, she would even hide alone and see no one. When she was willing to see her again, what she saw on her face was a face full of tears and a haggard face.

The play on the stage had already been performed, Lin Pin stood up shaking his clothes and said, "There are no beauties here, let's change to another place."

When going downstairs, Lin Pin's footsteps suddenly stopped at the top of the stairs, and Princess Si and Miao Jun also stopped at the same time.Lin Pin looked at a pretty figure standing behind a group of people leaning against a pillar with folded arms. For a moment, expressions of joy, pain, forbearance, and struggle appeared on her face at the same time, and her emotions were extremely mixed.

The pretty figure was yawning, and he caught a glimpse of Lin Pin standing on the stairs.There was light in his eyes, and he walked around the crowd towards Lin Pin.At the same time, Lin Pin also left Princess Si and Miao Jun and walked towards her.

The two finally met under the side corridor, Lin Pin sneered, "Ruan Xixi, you dared to escape from the house with Miao Jun, what should you do?"

Ruan Xixi snorted and said, "Lin Pin, you dared to take the princess out of the mansion without permission, what should you do?"

Seeing the way her eyebrows were raised and her eyes staring at him roundly, Lin Pin felt soft in his heart, and thought to himself: It will be fine if she is willing to come back again, what more do I have to ask for?Now that she has come back, she will deal with it in the way she came back.

So he grabbed Ruan Xixi's wrist by force and brought her forward, but Ruan Xixi refused and struggled desperately but dared not use his real strength for fear of hurting Lin Pin. "Lin Fox, where are you taking me, I won't go!"

Lin Xiao said, "Go upstairs and listen to the play."

"That's none of my business, I want to go back!"

"No."

"why?"

Lin Pin paused, then looked back and smiled evilly, "Who will peel me the melon seeds after you leave?"
