He was startled for a moment, a hint of nervousness in his eyes: "Who?"
She looked at him: "You."
His heartbeat stopped for a moment, and his fingers that were pinching the belt of her cloak suddenly clenched, his knuckles turning white. The sudden confession made him feel helpless and embarrassed for the first time in his eighties.
His eyes flickered, and he suppressed the strange and unusual throbbing in his heart. His tone was calm but a little hard: "I knew it a long time ago."
Wanruo frowned, why is this person so annoying!
Suddenly his ears twitched, he jerked his head, raised his hand and threw out a jade pendant, which flew directly into the branches of the big locust tree on the right.
Immediately followed by two screams of "Ah!"
Two people fell from the tree.
Xie Xianyu held Wanruo in one hand and took a few steps back. Wanruo was startled. When she saw the two people on the ground clearly, her eyes widened: "Xiuzhu?"
Wanruo hurriedly helped her up: "You didn't fall, did you?"
Xie Xiuzhu raised her head with difficulty: "I still seem to be..."
Meng Huaichuan, who was pinned down, cursed: "Of course it doesn't hurt when you're pinning me down!"
Only then did Xie Xiuzhu realize that Meng Huaichuan was pinned down by her, and she hurriedly climbed up in a panic.
Xie Xianyu said coldly, "What are you two doing sneaking around in that tree?"
"What do you mean by sneaking around? We are standing on the tree openly!" Xie Xiuzhu was right but still felt confident.
Meng Huaichuan struggled to get up from the ground: "I didn't pull her up the tree, she insisted on following me..."
Wan Ruo hurriedly said: "It's okay, it's nothing serious, but are you hurt anywhere?"
"No." Xie Xiuzhu shook her head and looked at Meng Huaichuan again.
Meng Huaichuan's bones seemed to be broken. As a man who stands tall and proud, how could he groan after a fall?
He raised his chin and said, "I have been practicing martial arts since I was a child, so of course I'm fine."
Xie Xianyu glanced at these two little brats who were completely ignorant of the world and didn't bother to care about them anymore, so he pulled Wanruo away.
The remaining two stared at each other and snorted coldly.
After being interrupted by them, Wanruo actually forgot about what happened with Xie Xianyu just now. She had a bad memory to begin with, and his temper was changeable every day, so she didn't have the time to guess so much.
"Hey, didn't Lord Su come today?" Wanruo suddenly remembered something.
"Why are you asking him?"
"I want to ask about Princess Xuan's situation." Wanruo was also a little worried.
Xie Xianyu said that Su Yan would take care of Princess Xuan's affairs and she didn't need to worry about it.
"He didn't come. He said he had something important to do."
"What else could be so urgent right now?" Isn't the capital too crowded?
He doesn't have to worry about clearing out the Prince of Zhennan.
"How should I know?"
-
Zhaojue Temple.
Chen Qinghan had begun to get used to the life in the temple, because the monks in the temple were quite caring towards her and did not deliberately make things difficult for her. She did her own work every day, which was a rare peace.
Today, she was carrying a basin of clothes to the river to wash as usual. When she reached the river, she saw a man standing there wearing a bamboo green robe, his hair tied up with a brocade belt, and the breeze and moon were bright.
Chen Qinghan paused and stood still.
She didn't expect him to come again.
Su Yan walked closer to her, and his face, which had been playful and frivolous, was now cold and serious.
"Is there anything wrong, Lord Su?" she asked.
Just as polite and distant as usual.
Su Yan stopped in front of her and looked at her with a serious look in his eyes: "After a while, I will take you out of the temple."
Chen Qinghan's face turned pale with shock: "What did you say?"
