After the man walked out of the door, he took off the mask on his face.
Under the candlelight of the lantern in the cloister, a cold face was revealed, but a smile was always hanging on the corner of the mouth, which actually made the face strangely soft.
He looked back at the door that was closed again, and there was still a constant curse in his ears, and another chuckle. He ordered the people around him, "Watch her carefully, and send more people in the dark." Stare.”
"Yes." The subordinates around him responded respectfully. They were silent for a moment, and then asked hesitantly, "Master, if we arrest the princess, will we anger Prince Xiu? Then..."
"If we don't catch her, will we let her ruin our good deeds?" The smile on the man's face finally disappeared, and his expression immediately became cold, "Ye Qingbei must have some scruples when she is in our hands. Prince Xiu doesn’t dare to help the emperor easily.”
"What will happen after Prince Xiu settles the accounts with his wife?"
A mocking smile appeared on the corner of the man's mouth, "When the time comes, I will naturally have my own way."
The subordinates behind him did not dare to speak and followed him out of the room where Nian Nian was being held.
Nian Nian sighed and shouted inside, "Hurry up and let me go, be careful my father burns down your house, plucks out all your tongues, and castrates your lifeblood..."
The man guarding the door trembled, and his face became a little stiff. Isn't it inappropriate to say this to a girl's family
"... I'm thirsty. You should pour me a glass of water first. Didn't you say you won't treat me badly?" Nian Nian leaned on the corner of the table, talking and looking around the room with her eyes rolling.
Regardless of whether the person just now was behind the scenes or not, at least one thing is certain, she is now very close to the murderer back then.
In this case, there is no need for her to leave in a hurry, she has to figure out some things.
Fortunately, they felt that her skills were average, so she had some advantages.
She just said, you have to be low-key, otherwise you will be like your elder brother and become a thorn in others' eyes, right
Nian Nian was a little tired from shouting, so she moved like a caterpillar to the bed beside her, and struggled to get on the bed.
Sure enough, it was more comfortable to lie on the bed, and she began to think about how she could find out the man's true face.
Before he could figure out the reason, there were footsteps at the door, and someone pushed in, holding a teapot in his hand.
Seeing Nian Nian lying on the bed, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch, and he put the teapot on the table, "The water you want."
"...How am I going to drink when I'm tied up like this?" Nian Nian moved like a caterpillar twice more.
Seeing her look like that, the man couldn't help but want to laugh, and he pursed his lips and tried his best to hold it back.
After a while, he walked to Nian Nian and untied the rope for her. While untying it, he advised her, "I will loosen the rope for you now, but don't think about knocking me out and escaping. There are many people outside. As long as you have No matter how little you do, you will be the one who suffers."
Niannian rolled her eyes, should she still thank him for his kindness
After the rope was untied, Nian Nian moved her wrists and finally felt a little more comfortable.
Then he rushed to the table, poured a glass of water, and drank it in big gulps.
The man frowned and waited until Nian Nian finished drinking before putting the teapot away.
But Nian Nian touched her stomach, turned her head and looked at him pitifully, "I'm hungry."
"You..." You are really not polite at all. She is a hostage now, so she is so easy-going
"Wait." The man took the teapot and left.
Sure enough, not long after, several more meals were brought in.
Nian Nian took a look at the dishes, and it really seemed like that person said he didn't treat her badly.
She tasted it and it tasted good.
"Hey, what's your name?" She chatted with him while eating.
The man stood aside and watched, probably to prevent her from making any other small moves. He did not dare to move his eyes away for a moment. After hearing this, he hesitated and said, "Just call me A Sheng."
In the following time, he would be responsible for bringing her water and food. He couldn't let her keep calling him 'feed'.
Niannian nodded, "Ah Sheng, are you going to stand here and watch me eat? Will you feel hungry just by looking at me?"
"..." Ah Sheng suddenly felt that delivering water and food to her might be a very difficult task.
"But I won't let you sit down and eat. After all, we are enemies now, right."
"… "you know too? Then you are still so excited to talk
"Can you tell me who my captor is?"
"… "How can it be
"You haven't spoken a word. I feel like a fool when I talk to myself like this."
"..." Then don't speak.
Ah Sheng felt a little sore. When he saw that she had almost eaten, he hurriedly stepped forward to clean up the dishes and left quickly.
The chopsticks in Nian Nian's hand were still stretched out in the air, and she watched Ah Sheng rush out the door in a daze.
After a while, Ah Sheng walked in again, took the chopsticks from Nian Nian's hand, and left again.
Nian Nian has a lot of black streaks in her head. Didn’t she agree that she wouldn’t be treated badly
If you don't even let her put down her chopsticks, does that mean you're not treating her badly? fraud.
She grinded her teeth angrily and lay down on the bed peacefully.
My mother said that the most important thing is to take care of yourself now that you are here, and the most important thing is to have enough food and drink to keep your spirits up.
However, Ah Sheng, who had just left, came back again, walked to the door of the room again, nodded to the two people guarding the door, and stood there quietly.
After listening for a long time, no sound came out from inside.
He frowned, then turned and left.
After passing through two corridors and crossing an arch, Ah Sheng stopped at the door of a silent room.
The people inside probably heard his footsteps, and soon a deep voice sounded, "Come in."
Ah Sheng entered the door and bowed his hands to the two people sitting in front of him with a rather respectful expression, "Master."
"Well, how's it going?" The middle-aged man nodded slightly.
Ah Sheng thought about it for a moment and said in a low voice, "...I made no move to escape. After eating and drinking enough, I fell asleep."
"Are you asleep?" The middle-aged man paused his hand, a little surprised.
Ah Sheng nodded, "You asked me about my master's identity, but when I didn't reply, I stopped."
"Although his skills are average, his temper is calm." He said, looked at the young man aside and smiled, "You still can't take it lightly."
The young man smiled and said, "Is it time for me to appear?"
"It's not the time yet, let's wait in a few days. Observe for a few more days to see if he is really calm...or just pretending." The middle-aged man's eyes narrowed slightly, looking enigmatic.
The young man nodded and said nothing.
