Chapter 427: It’s not appropriate to give a token of love right after meeting... Is Feng Wuyou’s disappearance related to Xiao Jinyan?
Concubine Xu widened her eyes and desperately slapped the person who came with her hands, and at the same time kicked the person behind her with her feet, but the person behind her was very strong and these actions were in vain.
She watched helplessly as she was dragged into the woods not far away. A large hand covered her mouth tightly, and she couldn't even utter a sound for help. The despair of facing extreme danger made her extremely scared.
She wailed in her heart, it was all over, she was going to die this time, and her chastity might even be lost!
It's a rare opportunity for me to go out and play, but I'm so unlucky!
Oh, heaven and earth, my life is so short.
After entering the forest, the sun was blocked out and there was a slight chill in the air.
But Concubine Xu was sweating profusely, obviously she was frightened.
Just when Concubine Xu was about to finish, the person behind her suddenly let go of her.
Concubine Xu opened her eyes wide and thought, if she didn't run away now, when would she run away?
The next second after being released, Concubine Xu ran away, but she didn't notice the hem of her skirt and stepped on it, letting out a scream.
"ah!!"
Concubine Xu saw that she was about to fall, and she wailed in her heart again. Maybe she didn't check the almanac, so bad things happened to her today.
Just when Concubine Xu was about to fall, a long and powerful arm grabbed her waist and easily saved her from the tragic fall.
Concubine Xu looked at the ground less than a foot away from her and was so scared that tears came out. The ground was full of wild flowers, and a thorny wild flower was poking her forehead.
Did you just fall into the thorny grass at that speed and get disfigured?
"Why are you running?"
The familiar voice coming from above her head made Xu Cefei stunned for a moment. Isn't this the man in black?
At this moment, the person behind her pulled her up, allowing Xu Cefei to see the true face of the person who came... He was still wearing night clothes and a black veil on his face.
When she saw the familiar man in black, Concubine Xu was relieved but also very angry. "You scared me to death just now, do you know that?"
The man in black saw that her eyes were filled with tears, as if someone had bullied her.
"Are you so timid?"
"Anyone would be scared if they were suddenly kidnapped. You even covered my mouth. I thought I was going to be tortured to death." Concubine Xu read a storybook yesterday. There was a story about a girl who was kidnapped and tortured to death. Her death was horrible.
Girls should be more vigilant when they are outside, because you don’t know how bad bad people can be.
The man in black also realized that his actions had caused her to misunderstand.
"If I didn't cover my mouth, I would have heard everything you said."
Concubine Xu was stunned when she heard this. It seemed to be the case. People would scream when they were scared.
"Then why don't you appear in front of me? If I see you, won't you stop screaming? You always attack me from behind. I'm lucky I'm not scared to death by you."
The man in black thought it made sense, but he remembered that they had entered illegally, so wouldn't it be too ostentatious to do it openly?
"Then we have to alert the Guards."
Concubine Xu thought about the identity of the man in black. Well, actually she didn't know who the man in black was, but entering the palace for the first time in night clothes was a capital crime.
Now entering and leaving the royal enclosure is equivalent to being an assassin, which is also a capital crime.
"Why do you always wear night clothes?"
"convenient."
“…”
Concubine Xu stared at the man in front of her. Apart from her two beautiful eyes, she was dressed in black from head to toe. She didn't look like a good person at all.
She suddenly thought of a possibility and her eyes widened.
"Are you an assassin from some organization?"
“…” The man in black: “No.”
"Oh." Concubine Xu thought that she must have read too many storybooks to actually think that the man in black was an assassin.
Assassins are all very cold-blooded. If the man in black was an assassin, she would have died eight hundred times already.
The man in black took out a small accessory from his pocket and handed it to Concubine Xu, "This is for you."
Concubine Xu looked at his broad palm and found a small bell pendant. She took it and looked at it for several times, then shook it curiously, but there was no sound.
She raised her head and looked at the man in black in confusion, "Why isn't the bell ringing?"
"It's not a bell, it's a worm inside..."
What Concubine Xu feared most was small insects. When she heard the man in black say it was a insect, she was so scared that she threw the insect in her hand away.
The man in black quickly caught the bell that Xu Cefei had thrown away mercilessly.
Concubine Xu was still a little scared. "Why don't you give me something else? Why give me a bug?"
Seeing how frightened she was, the man in black patiently explained, "This insect is harmless. It just senses its owner."
Concubine Xu was still a little scared. She stared at the bell-like thing in his hand. Who could have imagined that there was a insect inside?
"Is it poisonous? Does it bite?"
The man in black said, "It's non-toxic and doesn't bite. Its only function is to make a sound."
Concubine Xu felt relieved after hearing this. She stared at the insect in his palm for a long time, but did not see the insect. She could only see the golden bell, so the insect should be inside.
"What do you call it?"
The man in black handed the bell to her and said, "Take it."
Concubine Xu was still a little scared when she thought there was a insect inside. After hesitating for a long time, she slowly reached out her hand and took the bell from his palm.
Just as she had grasped it, she saw the man in black suddenly leave. By the time she reacted, he was gone.
"Every time, he comes and goes as he pleases."
Concubine Xu was a little dissatisfied. She lowered her head and looked at the small bell in her hand. It was tied with a red rope and it looked quite beautiful.
When Concubine Xu was about to leave with the bell in her hand, she suddenly heard two crisp sounds, and at the same time, the bell in her palm also jumped twice.
She raised the bell in her hand, watched it beat again in her palm, and heard a clear sound.
Before she could understand what was happening, a black figure suddenly appeared in front of her.
She raised her head suddenly and saw the man in black standing straight in front of her.
The man in black asked, "Did you hear that?"
Concubine Xu then realized that the man in black had suddenly left in order to let her hear the cries of the insects. She thought he was leaving without saying goodbye again...
She showed a look of surprise: "I heard it. It not only barks but also jumps."
The man in black said, "Whenever I come, you will know."
Concubine Xu looked down at the insect in her palm. She used to think the insect was scary, but now she felt it was cute. It could chirp and jump, and it could sense when the man in black was coming. Next time, the man in black would not be able to scare her anymore.
The man in black lowered his eyes and looked at her, then at the small bell in her hand, and didn't know why he gave the bell to her.
This sensory pigeon is not so easy to get.
A few years ago, he was passing through Miaojiang and met a friend who gave it to him. He felt that it was difficult to make a dragon, so it was extremely rare.
The inductive mouse is called a little bell because it looks like a bell and its call is as clear as a bell?
Concubine Xu tied the small bell to herself and made sure it would not fall off. Then she raised her head and looked at the man in black, "By the way, do you not live in the capital?"
The man in black asked, "How do you know?"
"You often show up every few months, sometimes once every one or two months. If you lived in the capital, you wouldn't show up so often, right?" Concubine Xu thought for a moment and asked again, "Have you found your little Jiu?"
"No." The man in black sighed, "It's like finding a needle in a haystack. How can it be easy?"
Concubine Xu asked again: "Then how do you know that Xiaojiu might appear in the palace of Daxia?"
The man in black paused when he heard this, of course it was because of the Great Xia Prince Xiao Jinyan.
At the same time
Tao Liangyuan sorted the cards several times, but didn't see Concubine Xu come back, so she couldn't help but feel worried.
She looked at Shen Chuwei, and seeing that she was asleep, she reached out and woke her up.
"Crown Princess, Concubine Xu has been in the palace for a while. Why hasn't she returned yet? Has something happened?"
Shen Chuwei was a little drowsy at the moment. After being woken up, she was still a little confused. After hearing what Tao Liangyuan said, she immediately became a little more sober.
"Let's go look for it."
"Okay." Tao Liangyuan put down the cards in her hand and followed Shen Chuwei towards the bathroom.
The toilet is not far away and you can get there in a short walk.
Shen Chuwei and Tao Liangyuan pushed open several doors, but didn't see Concubine Xu, which scared them to death.
Tao Liangyuan grabbed Shen Chuwei's hand and said worriedly: "This is Concubine Xu's first time here, it's impossible for her to just run around."
Shen Chuwei guessed, "Could it be that someone saw a little rabbit or pheasant or something and wanted to catch it but it ran away?"
The two looked at each other and began to call for help anxiously.
"Concubine Xu, where are you?"
"Xu Cefei, please come out quickly!"
Shen Chuwei turned to Chunxi and said, "Go find Qin Shiwei. It will be faster if he brings people to look for him."
"I understand." Chunxi also knew the seriousness of the matter, so she turned around and ran back.
Seeing Qin Xiao from a distance, she ran over in one breath.
"Qin Xiao, something bad has happened. Concubine Xu is missing."
Qin Xiao was very happy to see Chunxi coming to see him. After listening to what she said, he realized that it was an important matter.
"Where did Concubine Xu disappear?"
Chunxi took two breaths and said, "Concubine Xu went to the royal room for a long time and didn't come back until we found out she was missing."
Qin Xiao said: "I will take people to look for him now, tell the Crown Princess not to worry."
Chunxi nodded, "Yeah."
Qin Xiao called twenty guards to the Gongfang Micro Center and started looking for someone.
"Xu Cefei, where are you?"
"Xu Cefei, please come out quickly!"
Concubine Xu had long forgotten how long she had been out. It was not until she heard Shen Chuwei and Tao Liangyuan calling her that she realized she had gone out to the bathroom. They must be worried after not returning for such a long time.
She raised her head and looked at the man in black. She wanted to ask his name several times, but there was no suitable opportunity to ask.
"I should go back. They should be worried about me."
The man in black nodded, "Yes."
Concubine Xu tightly clenched the small bell in her hand, glanced at the man in black, turned around and ran in the direction she came from.
Shen Chuwei saw Concubine Xu running towards them and was so excited, "Concubine Xu, where have you been?"
Tao Liangyuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "You suddenly disappeared, and scared us to death."
Concubine Xu felt a little guilty, and felt a little guilty when she saw that they were worried about her.
"I saw a very cute little rabbit. I chased it for a long time but failed to catch it. I'm sorry to have worried you."
Shen Chuwei looked Concubine Xu up and down, and was relieved when she didn't see that she was injured. "It's good that she's okay. Let's go back."
The group walked back happily.
The man in black walked out from behind the tree and looked at the Crown Princess's departing back, with some doubt in his eyes.
Just as he was about to leave, he saw a cat appearing not far away. The cat was snow-white, and its pair of deep blue eyes were staring at him without blinking.
The man in black was stunned for a moment, then he strode towards the cat, bent down and picked it up.
The strange thing was that Xuetuan, who always hated being hugged by others, unexpectedly did not struggle this time, nor did he open his claws to chase people away.
