Chapter 189

Luo Shenyuan went to see the little girl in person.

Her features were darker than those of the women of the capital, and indeed bright and beautiful. She wore a dark green satin jacket, the edges of which were delicately outlined with silver thread, which accentuated her delicate and childish features. She looked like she had just reached the age of marriage, and her wrists were adorned with several jade and silver bracelets.

Ah Shan didn't understand what was going on. After being sent to the Marquis's residence, she fully believed that the master was going to take her in. The master treated her kindly, but never touched her in the slightest. She inquired privately and learned that the Marquis's wife was often away from home, and the Marquis was served only by a few personal maids.

She suddenly felt uneasy again, filled with fear. She was called out to dress and put on her makeup, and someone whispered instructions to her in Chinese. Her Chinese was not good, and she was nervous. All she heard was that she was being taken to an adult's house, presumably to see someone off.

The governor is so kind. In his quiet time, he just practices swordplay and drinks with his subordinates. He never speaks harshly to anyone and is always very brave and heroic.

The more Ah Shan thought about it, the more he wanted to cry. If he was given a little old man with wrinkles all over his face and behaved badly, he didn't know what to do.

So when she heard someone pulling the curtain in, she curled up a little further into her bed and didn't want to look at him.

As the person slowly approached her, she heard someone whisper, "Sir, it's her."

"Hmm." He said softly, his voice very clear.

Hearing the young man's voice, Ah Shan raised her head slightly and saw him standing against the light. Outside, the snow was falling heavily, and his cloak made him look even taller. The wind rushed in, and she stared in shock for a moment: "You..."

Firstly, the man was exceptionally good-looking, and secondly, he looked familiar. She vaguely recalled meeting him once, when she accompanied her father to Datong. It had been three or four years ago, when he and her father were discussing the horse market, and he was with another man at the time. Because he was so handsome, she remembered him so clearly.

Luo Shenyuan frowned when he saw her shocked expression. He took a step closer and looked at her: "Do you recognize me?"

"My father is...□□Chi..." Ah Shan said with difficulty.

A cold light flashed in Luo Shenyuan's eyes!

Lin Yong was surprised: "Sir, what's wrong?"

"Nothing." Luo Shenyuan regained his composure and said lightly, "Lock her up here and find someone to keep a close eye on her."

Coming out of the house, Lin Yong looked at him cautiously. "Sir, what happened to that girl?"

Luo Shenyuan breathed a sigh of relief. Perhaps he should be thankful that Lu Jiaxue had sent her here. Back when he was dealing with Zeng Heng, he had gone to Datong to negotiate a business deal for him, and unexpectedly, he ran into someone he knew. This was a problem. He couldn't let this woman go, and there was no way he could give Lu Jiaxue evidence against her. The emperor knew of his plot against the Tatars, but he had no idea their connection was so deep.

This is definitely a serious crime that will implicate nine generations of your clan!

It would be best to deal with this woman secretly.

"Find an opportunity to get rid of her secretly..." Luo Shenyuan used his hand as a knife and pressed down gently. Lin Yong immediately understood what he meant.

He thought of the orphan girl, whose family was broken up, who was still young and in such a miserable state, and who could only speak haltingly Chinese. She looked so pitiful. He felt a little sorry for her.

Perhaps men's sympathy for beautiful women is innate.

But the elder didn't seem to have any reluctance at all.

Luo Shenyuan stopped talking about the prisoner of war and continued, "I see the Empress has been quiet lately. She hasn't allowed the Third Prince to perform before the Emperor, so things are much calmer in the palace. Has the Concubine sent any message?"

Lin Yongcai came back to his senses and replied, "Jieyu said... the Empress has been concentrating on handling harem affairs recently and doesn't seem to care much about the Third Prince."

Abnormality is evil.

Luo Shenyuan thought for a moment and said, "Tell the Concubine to serve the Queen in the palace every day. The Emperor won't be in trouble."

After giving these instructions, he got up and went back to sleep. Yi Ning still hadn't woken up. He looked at her face buried in the quilt, the candlelight illuminating her. She seemed to have lost weight again in the past few days. Luo Shenyuan suddenly remembered when she came to play with him as a child. He was studying, and she didn't dare to disturb him. She curled up in a ball and fell asleep on his chair, sleeping head to tail like a kitten, her chubby little paws clasped together.

She no longer sleeps like that, but the soft, fragrant little ball lying beside her sleeps in the same way as his mother: curled up into a ball.

Looking at it this way, it seems like this little guy is doing pretty well.

Luo Shenyuan lay down beside them, and the big girl automatically snuggled up to him, while the small girl automatically leaned against the big girl. He held them both in his arms and closed his eyes.

Lu Jiaxue's return and the Queen's unusual behavior made him feel like a storm was brewing. But here, everything was peaceful.

On the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, there was another heavy snowfall. The mansion was decorated with lanterns and lanterns in preparation for the annual sacrifice.

The little boy was so cold that he didn't want to move. He lay on his mother's body and tried to hold her.

Little Tuanzi now has a voracious appetite. He's no longer satisfied with tofu and egg custard; the day before yesterday, he even had a bowl of minced meat porridge. He started to smell bad when he was older. Once, when he was still in diapers, Yining wanted to wash his butt. She took off his pants and motioned for his dad to hold him.

Luo Shenyuan had no choice but to put down the documents in his hand and take his son. He held Bao Ge'er from a distance. Bao Ge'er looked at his father, frowning and disdainful of his stinky body, his bare buttocks and two fat little legs kicking back and forth, and actually laughed happily. Luo Shenyuan found him funny: "You're so dirty, and you're still laughing?"

Bao Ge'er giggled and wanted to grab his father's handsome face. But his arms were too short, so he could only pull his sleeves. Luo Shenyuan didn't even want him to pull his sleeves, and the relationship between the two father and son was extremely unharmonious.
