Seeing that she agreed, Yan Chuchu led her around to a secluded palace road, dismissed his entourage, and stood there alone with her.
Nian Ruyan pretended to be calm and took a deep breath, raised his eyes to look at Yan Chuchu, and said, "I wonder what the princess wants from Ruyan?"
—She had a hunch that it would definitely not be a good thing for Yan Chuchu to find her!
As expected, Yan Chuchu took out a small piece of paper from her arms, walked to her and stood in front of her, showed it and said, "I heard that you seem to like Mr. Xiahou very much."
Nian Ruyan glanced at the note but did not read it carefully. After all, it was well known in this palace that she liked Xiahou Jinnian. It was not surprising that Yan Chuchu knew about it.
She pursed her lips and said, "It's not 'like', it's 'certainly'."
—Sure enough, it’s the same as what she found out!
Seeing the hint of timidity in her eyes, the smile on Yan Chuchu's lips became more and more proud. She put away the note in her hand, gently touched her face with her hand painted with kodan, and said: "Sister Ruyan, in fact, we all share the same problem - Because the people we like don’t like us, but the people we like all like the same person—”
At this point, she paused in a mysterious manner.
After listening to her words, Nian Ruyan only found it a little funny. Although she didn't think that she was a lady because of her knowledge, but she knew one thing very well - girls should respect themselves and love themselves.
And Yan Chuchu's words undoubtedly classified her into the same type of person.
After taking a breath, Yan Chuchu said again: "And you must also know that person - it is Lin Bao."
Lin Bao
Nian Ruyan's pupils narrowed slightly, and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes, "How did you know that Sister Lin's name is Lin Bao?"
—The only thing that’s certain is that Sister Lin definitely didn’t tell her herself!
I saw Yan Chuchu's long eyebrows raised, and his fingers had already slid to her shoulders. The tender red kodan looked a bit weird in the moonlight, making the smile on her face look particularly sinister, "It's not difficult for me to know, it's just that All you need to do is arrest someone from the palace and torture him."
Suddenly, Nian Ruyan trembled violently, avoided her hand, and stepped back. His little face was full of defense, and he said, "What on earth are you going to do?"
"I hope you can work with me to deal with Lin Bao. As long as you get rid of her, then-"
Unexpectedly, before she finished speaking, she heard Nian Ruyan excitedly say: "Impossible!"
Yan Chuchu looked at the little girl who couldn't reach her shoulders, her eyes flickered with confusion, but she heard her say: "I will never help you deal with Sister Lin!"
—Because Sister Lin said that a melon that is too strong is not sweet!
"Oh, you were bribed by her so quickly? Have you forgotten the fact that Xiahou Jinnian likes her!" She suddenly raised her voice, crumpled the note in her hand and pinched it.
Her words undoubtedly hit Nian Ruyan's pain point, but before he could refute, she heard her say again: "Why, are you so willing to be the foil of your love rival? Even if she asks Xiahou Jinnian to drive you away then , do you still believe her?”
A foil
Nian Ruyan snorted coldly, with a trace of determination on her delicate face and a rare seriousness in her eyes, "No matter what, I will believe in Sister Lin!"
—Because Sister Lin is not that kind of person!
"Believe it? Nian is like smoke, Nian is like smoke, haven't you seriously thought about it - why Xiahou Jinnian doesn't like you after you have worked hard for so many years, but Lin Bao only spent two short months Conquered him? "
She came closer step by step, and her barbed words were like poisonous needles inserted into her fragile heart.
Nian Ruyan clenched her fists, reached out and took out the rope dart, looked up at her, "Don't think you can slander Sister Lin just because you are some shitty princess!"
-How can someone as good as Sister Lin be slandered by a hypocritical person like her
Yan Chuchu stared at the rope dart in her hand and narrowed her eyes slightly. She was not afraid at all. She crossed her hands across her chest and provocatively said, "You can attack me! However, I will not guarantee that Yan Guo will go to war with Lian Guo!"
Suddenly, Nian Ruyan's hand holding the rope dart trembled slightly, and her mind suddenly remembered what Nian Hua once said to her - "Ruyan, you have to be cautious in everything - if you make a trivial mistake, my brother can protect you." I will protect you; but if you make a big mistake such as murder and arson, then my brother will definitely not protect you!"
Of course, if she hurt Yan Chuchu and led to a war between Lian and Yan, it would be indirectly equivalent to murder and arson, because once there is a war, the people will be in dire straits.
Seeing her hesitation, Yan Chuchu softened her tone and said, "If you think about it carefully, as long as Lin Bao is around, Xiahou Jinnian will never like you, but if she is gone, Xiahou Jinnian may still like you." , after all, you had a good relationship with Lin Bao."
There is no denying that her words are very convincing.
But Nian Ruyan is not someone who is easily persuaded. She raised her eyes and said coldly: "Princess, I am not you, so I will not hurt Sister Lin. But if you hurt Sister Lin, Brother Emperor will definitely not I'll forgive you."
-Because she believed that Brother Emperor was sincere to Sister Lin.
However, her words made Yan Chuchu suddenly laugh, with a bit of viciousness in her eyes, and said: "Do you think senior brother really likes her? Ha, if you think so, you are totally wrong. Yes! Senior brother only cares about her because of the child in her belly, and that child will never be born, so Lin Bao will be abandoned sooner or later! "
At this point, she moved closer to her, "And once she is abandoned, she will be with Xiahou Jinnian. Do you think you will have a chance by then?"
Nian Ruyan bit her lower lip, her eyes a little wet - she had long known that Xia Houjinnian would not like her, but she was still willing to give it a try to see if she could wait until the day he looked back, but now it seems -
She raised her face, put away the rope dart, with a little anger in her eyes, and said coldly: "No matter what you say, I will never help you harm Sister Lin."
Even...even if Xiahou Jinnian will never like her.
After that, she turned and left.
But Yan Chuchu felt an unprecedented anger. She never thought that she would be angry because of a hairy girl, and she never thought that Wen Su and Nian Ruyan would both side with Lin Bao.
Not only will this not make her stop because of frustration, on the contrary, it is precisely because of the frustration that she has to get rid of Lin Bao to regain her self-esteem!
After thinking about it, she clenched her hand tightly, her long nails digging into the flesh, but she felt an unprecedented pleasure, as if this would relieve her anger.
*
Nian Ruyan did not return to the gate of Chaoyang Palace, but went to the palace gate to wait alone. She really wanted to go home now and tell Nian Hua what she had experienced.
However, after waiting for a long time, no one came to pick her up. At this time, she had been bitten by ruthless mosquitoes. She was the only one to come out and was wearing thin clothes. She felt a little cold at night.
Suddenly, at this moment, a figure holding a lantern slowly walked towards her from the darkness. The figure was not tall and did not look like Nianhua.
Nian Ruyan squinted his eyes slightly, and then he saw clearly that the visitor was wearing aunt's red. He couldn't help but curled his lips and said, "What are you doing here, are you watching my joke?"
Xiahou Jinnian walked up to her, took out the brocade handkerchief from his arms, and handed it to her, "Nuo-wipe it, your face is full of water."
water
After realizing it, she stretched out her hand to touch it and realized that it was tears. She took his brocade handkerchief, wiped it on her face randomly, then threw it to him, and said: "Why, you are here to accompany me to feed the mosquitoes." ”
"I was passing by here and came here just because I saw you sitting here pitifully." He rolled his eyes, sat down next to her, and put the lantern on the ground.
Passing by
Nian Ruyan only found it funny and turned to look at him, "But how do I remember that Jinyuan is in the opposite direction from here?"
Hearing this, a trace of embarrassment appeared on Xiahou Jinnian's face. He cleared his throat and said, "I can go wherever I like. Do you care?"
"I don't care. I don't have any problem with you even if you want to live in a pig shed." She said disdainfully, her elbows on her knees, her chin in her hands, and she looked at her eyes with a hint of weariness.
Xiahou Jinnian glanced at her, swallowed, and put the bright red cloak on her body. He changed the subject and said, "Are you waiting for Brother Nianhua?"
"Isn't this nonsense!"
She rolled her eyes, yawned, and wrapped the cloak tighter around her body, feeling a little sweet in her heart.
Thinking of the scene she just saw, Nian Ruyan hesitated a little. She was thinking about whether to tell him, but she heard him say: "It's been so long, brother Nian Hua will definitely not come."
"Can you please not have the crow's mouth? If brother doesn't come, then I will have to feed mosquitoes here all night." After thinking about it, she stretched out her hand and fanned the mosquitoes randomly in the air.
Xiahou Jinnian licked his lips and said hesitantly: "Actually... Jinyuan has extra rooms."
"Forget it, didn't you say you would keep a distance for the sake of our innocence?" She refused without thinking, her eyelids began to fight, and she couldn't help but yawn.
Seeing her refusal, Xiahou Jinnian didn't want to mention it anymore, so he had to sit beside her silently, waiting for Nianhua to pick him up.
However, he sat there and waited for a long time, but Nian Ruyan did not complain at all. He couldn't help but be curious. When he turned to look, she was already asleep on her knees wrapped in a cloak.
“…”
Damn girl, I told you to go back to Jinyuan a long time ago, now it’s great, he has to drag her back!
Xiahou Jinnian had no choice but to help her up, put his arm around her waist, and held the lantern in the other hand. However, not long after walking, he felt weak in his limbs and almost fell to the ground!
He had no choice but to carry her towards Jinyuan.
Behind them, a man in white robe slowly walked out of the night, looking at the backs of the two with a complicated expression -
