After all the excitement, it’s time for everyone to go to sleep, whether they are human or not.
After getting rid of the bad luck, Miss Huo ran away in panic, and Mu Ying also returned to the house with her son.
He had just returned from a night out, so he was not in a hurry to test the child on his 'homework'. Instead, Xiao Yulang was curious about his extra uncle who was feeding the baby.
Huang Feng is a very busy girl today, she is full of energy. As she has just arrived in the capital, she wants to take advantage of the night to stroll around, and Qing Wu follows her.
Only Situ Jing, with frayed back muscles, was still standing in the yard.
"Since the prince is planning to keep your return a secret from everyone in the palace, how should you tell others about your current identity?"
Situ Jing asked cautiously, mainly because after what happened with Yi Tian, the news that the princess brought a little Yi-faced girl back from Nanling might have spread everywhere.
The best way to stop rumors is to create more substantive rumors.
Situ Jing's clever mind turned around and suggested, "The princess has many relatives, and everyone is used to it. Why don't we just say that Your Majesty is also a relative of the princess?"
"The kind with blood ties! In this case, when you are closer to the princess, no one will think too much."
Xiao Chenyan received Si Da's smart and wise look, and remained expressionless throughout.
Qing Wu's eyes changed: "This is a good idea!"
She raised her chin and said, "From now on, tell everyone that he is my half-brother, and his name... will be Black Stone."
Xiao Chenyan: "..."
Situ Jing almost laughed out loud. He covered his mouth, coughed, and said with a righteous look: "I obey your orders!"
After saying that, he didn't forget to pretend to die.
"Brother Blackstone, the princess's safety is in your hands."
Xiao Chenyan smiled faintly: "Mr. Situ, it's best to open one eye when you sleep at night."
Situ Jing felt embarrassed and said goodbye quickly.
Sure enough, it is very risky to watch Xiao Chenyan make a fool of himself!
All the outsiders left, leaving only the two of them facing each other.
Qing Wu held the door open with her hands, as if to show that no one could enter. She raised her chin in a haughty manner and said, "As a younger brother, it is not right for you to sleep on the same bed with your sister! Do you understand, little Shitou!"
She stepped on the threshold and raised her height to be at eye level with him.
Xiao Chenyan looked at her with interest: "Do you want to be my sister so much?"
"If we really talk about age, I can be more than just your sister. I can be your ancestor."
"So where should I sleep tonight?" He stared at her without blinking, biting the words softly: "Little, Ancestor."
Although the words were spoken in a joking tone, they sounded more charming when they came out of his mouth.
Qing Wu started to feel nervous again when she was stared at by his eyes.
Ever since that day, Xiao Chenyan really stopped pretending.
"I don't care where you sleep, but you are not allowed to sleep in my room." She said fiercely, "Just put a nail on the door and sleep there!"
After saying that, she slammed the door shut.
When the door closed, she vaguely heard the man's laughter.
As if mocking her for running away in desperation.
Qing Wu leaned against the door, her face flushed, her brows furrowed, and she felt so angry that her teeth were itching.
Judge Bi couldn't help but ask, "Why don't you just let him hang himself by the neck with a silk thread from a beam?"
Qing Wu: "You are so cruel."
Judge's Pen: "I'm poisonous? Ah Wu, you've changed, you bad devil. Where is your heart of stone? If it were you, you would have conjured up a rake and made him sleep."
Qing Wu: "Am I that kind of cruel and ruthless ghost? You are talking nonsense!"
"Can you still be soft-hearted? Ah...something's wrong with you! Something's very wrong with you! What's wrong with you lately? It's like there's a flea in your chest, jumping up and down all day long, making so much noise!"
Qing Wu's face was embarrassed, and she gritted her teeth: "If you say that again, I will kill you."
Suddenly, her body stiffened.
Although there was a door between them, she felt that there was someone leaning on the other side of the door just like her.
Xiao Chenyan leaned against the door, his eyes slightly drooped, but his body was stiff.
All along, he could hear a speaking presence in her.
However, he could never hear clearly what that thing was saying.
But ever since he formed a bond with her, he could hear it, and just now, he even heard every word clearly.
When she spoke, it seemed to be the pen she had passed away.
He heard the pen say to her: Awu.
It was like a huge rock hitting the lake, splashing water and creating ripples.
He once asked her in person whether she was Yun Qingwu.
What she got in return was a flat denial.
However, from the moment she first appeared, all the evidence pointed to that answer.
She is clearly Yun Qingwu.
It’s that little girl from that year!
Xiao Chenyan turned sideways stiffly, his eyes seemed to be able to see the guilty figure in the room through the door, his eyes were complicated and indescribable.
Many mysteries were completely solved at this moment. No wonder she was so concerned about the unjust case in the Zhenguo Marquis Mansion, no wonder she was so polite to Xie Shu, no wonder... she said that she "should be like this".
But why... just refuse to recognize him?
