The secret guard hesitated for two seconds and then shook his head.
Dongfang Ke's heart sank to the bottom again. He closed his eyes and said in a hoarse voice, "Back off."
Xiao Lizi looked at the sad look of his prince and sighed slightly.
Ever since the prince came back, he has been sending people to look for someone in the Dasheng Dynasty, but he couldn't find him no matter how hard he looked.
It was a boy, the prince said. When he was a wandering child, the two depended on each other, and it was the boy who gave him all the warmth.
But that year, the boy was abducted by a beggar and we lost contact with him. More than ten years later, he could not be found again.
Xiao Lizi could see that the prince had deep feelings for the boy, otherwise the first thing he would do after coming to power would not be to wipe out all the beggars in the huge Donglin Kingdom.
Every beggar caught was punished with a serious crime.
The people didn't know the reason, but Xiao Lizi knew that the prince was taking revenge for the boy.
Over the years, the prince has never given up searching, but he doesn't know where the boy is, or even whether he is alive or dead.
Alas, he could see that finding the boy had become the prince's obsession.
"Go out, I want to be alone."
Xiao Lizi sighed, bent down and retreated. Dongfang Ke was the only one left in the quiet room.
Dongfang Ke closed his eyes, but he could still remember the little guy surrounding him and calling him "little brother".
"Brother, where are you?" Dongfang Ke murmured, opened his eyes, and his eyes were full of pain and longing.
He looked out the window blankly. The prosperity of the world seemed to be of no interest to him. He just wanted to find that small figure.
Just at this moment, a pretty figure came into his sight. The young girl had a rosy face and a beautiful smile.
Almost in an instant, Dongfang Ke, who had been silent for many years, began to jump violently.
There was a voice in his heart telling him: It’s him, it’s him, he is the one you have been looking for.
Brother, Xiaoqi, is that you?
Dongfang Ke turned over and jumped out of the window.
Suddenly someone jumped down from the second floor, and people passing by on the street were startled.
Dongfang Ke ran quickly towards the direction where the young man had just been, but the person who was there a second ago was now gone.
Could it be an illusion caused by what he thought about during the day and dreamed about at night?
No, it's impossible.
Dongfang Ke came to the stall and asked, "Boss, where did the boy in pink go when I was buying something here just now?"
"Oh, he went in that direction."
Dongfang Ke was delighted, knowing that he was not mistaken. He hurried to the direction the boss pointed.
The streets were crowded with people coming and going.
Dongfang Ke squeezed through people one after another, looking for the pink figure, but he couldn't find it.
"Prince, what are you looking for?" Seeing Dongfang Ke coming down the stairs, the secret guard and Xiao Lizi came to him.
"Find an eighteen or nineteen-year-old boy wearing pink."
"yes."
The secret guard and Xiao Lizi also joined in the search.
"Please forgive us, Your Highness, we haven't found him." Half an hour later, Dongfang Ke and his men still hadn't found anyone.
Dongfang Ke stood on the street, watching people coming and going, his heart sank to the bottom.
Is that you?
Is it God's destiny that we cannot meet?
Dongfang Ke's eyes were full of pain.
He didn't know why he suddenly determined that the figure was Xiao Qi, but there was a voice in his heart telling him that it was the Xiao Qi he had been thinking about.
