Chapter 144 The Only Person Who Moves My Heart



"What nonsense!" Shui Yao interrupted Yinglu coldly. Who knows whether it has expired or not? In ancient times, there was no production date like in modern times. Anyway, it is good tea!

Yinglu quickly lowered her eyes and brows. It was not the first time she had seen the young lady being stingy, so she was not surprised!

Yue Nanchen frowned slightly, feeling very amused. She remembered that she had said something in the prison -

You have never experienced the feeling of being hungry and cold, where even survival is a problem. At that time, you will know the importance of money... Was her life really not good before? Yue Nanchen suddenly felt an interest in exploring the woman's past.

"Are you here just to ask about Prince Changning?" Shui Yao changed the subject lightly.

"I guess so!" Yue Nanchen said calmly, "Do you know Yongxiang Hutong? There is a really strange street there. Qianhun sent people there several times but they always got lost. I remember that place was just an ordinary street before. I don't know who set up a maze there!"

Shui Yao's heart was moved. What did he mean by this? Yongxiang Hutong was the street where her Yiran Residence was located. Did he suspect that Prince Changning was hiding there? Or... a maze? Why didn't she feel anything every time she went back?

"I don't understand the Eight Trigrams!" Shui Yao said in a calm voice, temporarily suppressing the idea of ​​asking Yue Nanchen to go to Miro Kingdom with her. It seemed that she had to go back and take a look.

"Since my tea is expired, I will not keep you here, Your Highness. Please do as you please. I will invite you again when I have tea that is not expired!" Lan Shuiyao stood up lazily and ordered him to leave.

Yue Nanchen knew that she must be suspicious of something, so he said nothing.

, stood up and said goodbye.

Two hours later, the rain stopped and the sky gradually darkened. A bright red figure landed faintly on the roof of a house not far away. After making sure that no one was following, the figure quickly disappeared into the distance.

Standing on the street, Lan Shuiyao looked at the quiet Yiranju in the dusk. There was nothing unusual at all, but the silence of the street did make her feel strange.

When she thought about how Qianhun had tracked her here several times but was thrown off by her, perhaps it was the maze that Yue Nanchen mentioned that was working!

Shui Yao went around the corner again. Once she got out of the corner, the outside suddenly became bustling. Small vendors took advantage of the rain to shout desperately, trying to sell their goods as soon as possible.

Beggars also quickly came out and begged in the corners. But behind her, the street was as quiet as a deep mountain.

Clang! She endured the pain and threw two copper coins into the beggar's bowl. The beggar quickly raised his head and thanked the girl several times.

"I just came from that street. There was a kind-hearted person distributing rice. Why don't you go?" Shui Yao said casually.

The beggar was stunned and pointed to the street behind him, "Girl, which street are you talking about?"

Shuiyao nodded.

"Oh girl, that street is a famous ghost street. It's haunted even during the day. Even the old neighbors who have lived here for decades can't find the way in. Don't you think it's strange?"

"Ghost Street? Since when has it become like this?" Shui Yao whispered.

“About half a year ago, there were a few deserted courtyards on that street. Later, I don’t know who bought them. Then the whole street was bought by someone, and then strange things happened!

Only the people in there

In and out, in and out, even if you follow them, you can't get in!" The little beggar said while rubbing the copper coins.

It looked like what Yue Nanchen said, someone was playing tricks, who was it? Shui Yao's mind quickly emerged with Tian Wen's faint and dim figure. He understood the Eight Trigrams, could it be him?

Shui Yao's mind moved, and she quickly turned around and walked into the street. Looking from Yiranju, she could see the courtyard of Tianwen. She knew that Yue Nanchen must have a purpose for what he said today. Could it be that Prince Changning was hiding in Tianwen?

Shuiyao stood on the roof, her clothes fluttering. Below her was the courtyard where Tianwen lived. In the gradually thickening night, it was particularly quiet, and not even the barking of dogs could be heard.

The red figure fell, and there was no sound at all. However, that elegant and faint voice still rang out, "Miss Lan, it seems that we have been at odds recently. Miss Lan always enters my courtyard without my permission!"

Lan Shuiyao was startled, then she grinned, with a hint of flattery, and slowly turned around, smiling, "Yeah, I wanted to know why you always like to be sneaky, it turns out that this feels really good!"

Tian Wen listened to her childish answer and smiled, "But I won't be like you, always giving me the cold shoulder! Do you want to go in and have a cup of tea?"

Shui Yao nodded, "Okay!" and then followed him into the hall.

This was her first time entering Tianwen’s territory, and the furnishings were indeed as elegant and otherworldly as he himself was.

The surrounding walls were covered with jade-colored jade, on which were carved delicate white lotuses. When people approached, the white lotuses seemed to come alive, emitting bright light under the faint candlelight!

Tianwen made tea himself, his jade-white fingers moving up and down, steam rising from the delicate jade cup. He raised his eyes and glanced at Shuiyao, "Do you have to wear a veil in front of me too?"

Shuiyao smiled faintly and slowly picked

Tian Wen seemed dazed for a moment, but soon lowered his eyes, as if avoiding something, and pushed the jade cup in front of Shui Yao.

"Can you tell me about your origins? We have dealt with each other so many times, but you never seem to tell me your story. You just asked for a name!"

Tian Wen smiled faintly, did not say anything, just sipped his tea silently.

"Don't want to tell or can't tell?" Shui Yao put down the teacup. Since he didn't dare to reveal his true origins to others, how could she dare to drink his tea?

Tianwen smiled, "I want to tell you my true identity, but obviously, now is not the right time! The disguised identity is just a trick to deceive the world, but I don't want to use it to deceive you!"

"What you said is so profound. If I ask further, it seems that I am not sincere enough!" Lan Shuiyao sneered, but still did not touch the cup of tea. She just looked at the inner room with low curtains, "Won't you take me to visit your room?"

Tianwen was stunned. Perhaps ancient people did not have such a custom. Who would suggest visiting a room? Visiting a garden or a pavilion is more appropriate.

Seeing his expression change, Lan Shuiyao knew in her heart that perhaps Prince Changning was really here! She immediately stood up, walked forward and lifted the curtain, with a flash of sharpness in her pupils, "You have broken into my room several times, it's my turn this time!"

Tianwen stood up, but did not stop her, but his eyes were blue, "Are you interested in watching

Just watch! "

Although Lan Shuiyao knew that even if Prince Changning was here, he would definitely hide in a secret place and would not be easily found by her, she could at least peek into the secret of Tianwen.

Shui Yao frowned slightly as she looked at each room. The furnishings of these rooms were very simple, revealing a style that she did not like. Each room was more or less the same, and she could tell what all the rooms looked like after looking at one.

Tianwen, this man, seems to be hiding very well.

Tian Wen had been accompanying her all the time, as if he had already anticipated that she would not be interested, and led her to the front hall again.

"Okay, I should go back. To be honest, it's much more interesting to have my master accompany me than to go and see things secretly by myself!" Shui Yao said lazily and walked out lazily.

Tianwen didn't stop her, but just watched her go away quietly.

The design of his room is based on the I Ching and Bagua. Ordinary people would feel dizzy when they enter it.

And Lan Shuiyao was able to visit five rooms at once without any reaction. If she hadn't found it monotonous and boring, she might have kept walking.

At this time, a pale man walked out slowly from the inner room. It was actually Changning Wang Yue Chengning.

"She is actually..." He had just hidden in the screen wall and could clearly hear people talking outside. How could he have misunderstood Lan Shuiyao's voice?

"She is the red rose!" Tian Wen sneered, and successfully saw that King Changning's expression was instantly conflicted.

"She is the Red Rose? She is the Red Rose who spread false information and caused me heavy losses?" King Changning could not have imagined that the woman he wanted to kill was actually the only woman his heart was attracted to!
