It was night, Xie Yuanjia woke up suddenly from his sleep, his dinner was a bit salty, he would be a little thirsty, and he didn't call the little maid and eunuch who was on duty outside to come in, he got out of bed and went to the table to pour a glass of water and take a few sips , relieved the dry itching in the throat.

After drinking a glass of warm water, his sleepy mind instantly woke up. After tossing and turning on the bed for a while, Xie Yuanjia still couldn't fall asleep, so he simply put on some clothes and opened the door to go out.The two little maids who were guarding the gate at night outside were leaning against the threshold and dozing off, Xie Yuanjia didn't disturb them, and walked out of the bedroom door step by step carefully.

The guards outside the palace gate saw him and hurriedly knelt down to salute, Xie Yuanjia hurriedly raised his hand and shook his hand and said softly: "There is no need to salute, I just couldn't sleep and came out to relax."

Hearing that the emperor was going out to relax in the middle of the night, the chief guard wanted to ask a few people to follow him, but Xie Yuanjia refused: "I really don't need anyone to follow, I won't go far, just walk around here, don't follow me .”

It is especially suitable to be alone in the dead of night. Xie Yuanjia doesn't want to be followed by a group of people, so he might as well stay in the house by himself.The chief guard obviously hesitated, but Xie Yuanjia was the emperor after all, no matter what, he still had this bit of prestige, but the prince couldn't explain it.In the end, Xie Yuanjia walked ahead alone, and followed three or five guards loosely after a hundred or so meters, which was regarded as protection.

Xie Yuanjia sighed in his heart, he really didn't think there was any danger in the palace, the inner three floors and the outer three floors were heavily guarded, it was difficult for flies to fly in, let alone assassins.Besides, if there is an assassin, it should be to find the protagonist, and killing him as a puppet little emperor is useless.

He walked around the bedroom in peace. The night in early spring was a little bit chilly, but it wasn't that cold. Xie Yuanjia didn't feel cold at all in that bright yellow cloak. I was sweating a little.

When he walked to the southwest corner of the dormitory and was about to return home, out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of a familiar figure, sitting at the corner of the southwest gate, and no one knew what he was doing.Originally, Xie Yuanjia planned to pretend that he hadn't seen it and walked over, but his legs were not obedient, so he made a detour and walked to that remote corner.

That person was indeed Lan Kou.

Under the night, the girl sat alone by the corner and looked up at the sky, looking very sad, Xie Yuanjia was a little worried.

Lan Kou had been by his side for almost three months, but he had said very little to her, and she seemed unwilling to talk to her.Most of the time in the palace was Clinique chatting, but Lan Kou, who was about the same age as him, was always silent. Xie Yuanjia occasionally wanted to tease her, but she just turned a cold face to him.

He stopped ten steps away from Lan Kou, who was sitting by the door, and suddenly he didn't know whether he should continue to walk forward. It seemed that Lan Kou clearly wanted to be alone. Why did he bother her so presumptuously? Isn't it too abrupt?

Just as she was about to turn around and leave quietly, Lan Kou found him one step ahead.

"The emperor?" Her voice was full of surprise, and then Lan Kou quickly stood up and saluted, "Why is the emperor coming out at this hour? What should I do if I catch a cold?"

"It's okay, I just woke up and wanted to go out for a walk." Xie Yuanjia explained.

Lan Kou frowned slightly, as if she didn't agree with his approach: "Your Majesty, I'm sorry to say that your dragon body is so precious! How can you come out in the middle of the night without taking anyone with you? What if you encounter any danger? Today's night duty Are all the palace people dead? How dare they just let you stay alone like this!"

"It's really fine." Xie Yuanjia didn't take it seriously at all, and comforted him: "There is no danger in the palace, besides, there are still some people following behind me." He stretched out his hand and pointed at the group of guards who were not far or close them.

"What's the use of that!?" Lan Kou was still very angry, "The palace is so big! If something really happened, those guards would have hundreds of heads that wouldn't be enough to cut off! Your Majesty, don't be willful!"

Xie Yuanjia was severely criticized by her, and felt a little guilty, so she lowered her head and whispered, "I'm sorry."

Lan Kou was taken aback.

"How can the emperor apologize to a maid in charge of a servant girl? You are the Ninth Five-Year Lord, and you have always been the only one to deal with other people. You can't mess up your status."

Xie Yuanjia didn't think so much, his identity is the emperor, but only he knows who he is. People who come out of the 21st century don't have so many hierarchical concepts, and it is impossible to change their way of thinking for a while. If you make a mistake, you will naturally apologize.

"The Ninth Five-Year Honor is nothing special." Xie Yuanjia raised his head, looked at her seriously and said, "Why is aunt sitting here alone?"

Lan Kou originally wanted to teach him a few words, but after hearing his question, she calmed down, and finally said, "Slave... just want to be quiet."

Lan Kou is a very strange person. He keeps saying that Xie Yuanjia is the emperor and the Ninth Five-Year is the most honorable, but he doesn't seem to really take him seriously in his behavior, and has repeatedly committed offenses without mercy.If it were someone else, even if she was relying on the Regent, she might not be able to please her.

Only Xie Yuanjia, who is gentle and soft, tolerates her everywhere, never gets angry with her, and doesn't care about status and authority.

"Then can I sit here quietly?" Xie Yuanjia asked carefully, he was a little tired after walking for so long, so he could rest his feet so he could go back to sleep.

"The entire imperial palace belongs to the emperor. If you are willing to sit, the slaves will naturally not refuse."

After getting an affirmative answer, Xie Yuanjia casually wiped the dust on the steps with his sleeve, and sat down next to Lan Kou, propping his chin and imitating her to look up at the stars.

Lan Kou dared to sit on the same level as him, she hurriedly stood up and knelt aside, but was stopped by Xie Yuanjia: "Auntie, just sit here, I'm quite lonely by myself, it's good to have someone to accompany me."

Lan Kou didn't speak, and sat back quietly.

From the first time she saw the little emperor, Lan Kou didn't like him.She has lived in the killer training camp since she was a child, living a life of licking blood every day. In order to survive, she must pay a price ten times higher than ordinary people.There is no emotion in the killer camp. Even if she is injured, she can only bandage it in silence in the room alone. Therefore, she, who is used to life and death, always keeps a cold face and refuses to reveal a trace of emotion, just like Live like a murder weapon.

But Xie Yuanjia is different, he lives like a person from another world.Lan Kou doesn't understand how there is such a strange person as Xie Yuanjia in this world, just as Xie Yuanjia thinks she is strange, she also thinks that Xie Yuanjia is a different kind, different from everyone she knows.

Obviously he was born in a miserable life, why doesn't he blame others?Why not be greedy?Why not revenge?Why can you still smile happily in the sun?Why can you still write under the lamp with peace of mind after the prince intentionally made things difficult?

why?

At first, Lan Kou, like the prince, thought that the reason why he was so desireless was because he was scheming and pure on the surface, and he might be hiding a more meticulous plan in private.But Clinique severely mocked her for being too narrow-minded as a woman, thinking that everyone is as miserable as she thinks, no wonder she can only be used as a tool for killing.

She didn't care much, but the more she got in touch with the little emperor, the more at a loss she became.

The little emperor likes painting, drinking scented tea, telling jokes with Clinique, watching her embroider in the sun as a female celebrity, and also likes to softly call her "aunt" behind her.

The closer you get to him, the more incomprehensible the little emperor will be.Therefore, Lan Kou hates him very much, she doesn't like all the people who live in the sun.

However, the little emperor who looked very cheerful said that he was also lonely.

Will he be lonely too?

Lan Kou turned to look at him, the little emperor's side face still had a little baby fat that hadn't faded, and the boy's brows had already shown their edges and corners, unlike other young people who were flamboyant and wanton, the little emperor was gentle and soft even when he was a boy The appearance is not ostentatious at all.

Such a person should be very gentle, right?

Lan Kou was in a daze.

"The slave once had a younger brother."

"Huh?" Xie Yuanjia was still worrying about the morning court later, whether the people below would be as noisy as the vegetable market again, whether the protagonist would kick him again, and whether the teacher would listen to him again Endorsing, suddenly heard what Lan Kou said, turned to look at her.

Lan Kou seemed to be determined to say something, and without looking at him, she just continued, "I used to have a younger brother, who is only three years old, and he is very cute."

Lan Kou is very beautiful, and her younger brother must be good too.

"Really? What about your brother?" Xie Yuanjia couldn't help asking curiously.

Lan Kou was silent for a while before saying, "Dead."

"The village was ransacked by bandits. The slaves were collecting medicine on the mountain at that time. When I returned, my younger brother and parents were gone."

Her voice was very steady, and she calmly narrated what should be regarded as a tragic past. Xie Yuanjia didn't know what kind of person could speak of her past calmly, but the process must have been painful.

"Sorry." He didn't know what to say, so he apologized meaninglessly, and he shouldn't have asked that question too much.

Lan Kou shook her head, "It's not the emperor's fault."

She said so many words without beginning and end, Xie Yuanjia didn't quite understand what she wanted to say.His previous working environment was full of girls. It stands to reason that he should understand women's minds very well, but he really couldn't understand Lan Kou.

When a white streak appeared in the sky, Lan Kou stood up from the ground and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, I will take you back to the palace."

"Ah... good." Xie Yuanjia nodded, unknowingly, he sat here with Lan Kou until dawn, no wonder his legs were numb.

Seeing that he was about to fall, Lan Kou hurried forward to help him.The physical fitness is not as good as that of a girl, Xie Yuanjia is a little embarrassed: "Thank you, aunt."

Lan Kou opened her mouth, but finally couldn't help but reprimanded: "The emperor's body is too weak, he should eat more."

Xie Yuanjia felt helpless.

The protagonist and his subordinates, both male and female, can eat, even rice and five bowls of soup, he is also very envious.

Fu Jinghong, who was getting up not far away, sneezed lightly, feeling unhappy. What kind of blind thing is thinking about him?
