The waiter gave Song Qingtang some clothes, and he put them on. Because he was too tall, the clothes made him uncomfortable.
Don't awkwardly go downstairs. Song Qingtang prepared his words in his mind and secretly made up his mind not to mention what happened this morning when they met later. Instead, he would sternly question why this girl appeared here. What happened in the past half year?
I tried to figure out some things again.
It is best to be aggressive all the time, to silence her with questions, or even to scare her into tears, although I feel that scaring her into tears seems a bit impractical.
Coming down from the wooden ladder, Song Qingtang looked toward the lobby. He was stunned and looked at the waiter: "Where's Ah Li?"
The waiter was wiping the table and pointed behind him: "Let's go."
"Leaving?" Song Qingtang looked at the back door, "Where are you going?"
"She said early in the morning that she had something to do and was waiting for me to eat. Now she said it was too late, so she grabbed a steamed bun and left."
"Leave now?" Song Qingtang felt a little depressed for no reason, pointing at himself, "Then what should I do?"
"You? You go report it to the official," the waiter said, looking at him suspiciously, "Wait a minute, I said you must have gone out to have fun, and ended up being stripped naked and thrown out without any money, right?"
"
"Nonsense!" Song Qingtang frowned and shouted angrily, "Stop slandering people like this!"
He was naturally tall, and his many years in the military camp had made him majestic. Such a sudden drink made the waiter startled.
"Tch..." the waiter murmured softly, shook the rag for wiping the table, and threw it over his shoulder, "Then you have nothing to do now. You can go. Mr. Qian, who is wearing this dress, will replace it."
You gave it."
"Did she say where she was going?"
The clerk spread his hands and said, "How can I ask this? In our line of work, how can we ask random questions about guest officers?"
Song Qingtang glanced at him, turned around and walked towards the back, paused, then turned around and said, "How long has she lived here?"
"I'm sorry I can't sue you," the waiter said, shaking his head.
"Then she doesn't have anything to say to me?"
"I asked, and she said she wasn't very familiar with you."
"..."
Okay, I'm really not familiar with it.
Song Qingtang nodded, raised his eyes and glanced around, then raised his legs and left.
From the looks of it, she should be back. He would go back to change clothes now, and ask Zeng Tangzhi what was going on, and then come back here to find her.
After coming out, he looked around again.
The terrain here is not difficult to remember, it is right on the shore of the lake.
The hustle and bustle in the distance, and the eerie silence that filled the city for a while, seemed to indicate that the emperor had set off.
He was supposed to be leaving today, but now that he was left here, someone from above should have been transferred there.
If he shows up now and is seen by people who know him, I wonder if it will have any impact.
After all, today is a day of worship, and nothing can go wrong. Otherwise, if he is accused of any crime, his fate will not be easy, and his family will even be hurt.
Song Qingtang did not go through the main road, but went to the alley where he woke up today.
When he got here, he felt uncomfortable, so he quickened his pace.
As he walked, he stopped and looked up into the sky.
In the distance, on the corner of the eaves several feet above the ground, a child was sitting there. She was wearing clothes with a similar color to the eaves, which perfectly hid her small body.
"Ah Li!" Song Qingtang shouted.
Xia Zhaoyi looked back.
Song Qingtang's face turned pale: "Don't move! Where is your ladder! Don't move, it's dangerous!"
Xia Zhaoyi smiled and looked back at the long queue that looked like a swimming dragon in the distance.
This is already the highest place in the vicinity, and there is still no end as far as the eye can see. I just feel that the vast capital has turned into a floating sea, and people are as small as pebbles in it.
"Ah Li!" Song Qingtang searched for a long time but couldn't find the ladder, so he raised his head and shouted, "How did you get up there!"
As soon as the voice fell, the girl stretched out her hand and nimbly jumped down from the eaves. She grabbed the corners of the eaves and used her strength to jump onto the eaves of the three floors below.
Song Qingtang was startled just now. It was too dangerous. Then in the blink of an eye, he saw that the girl had landed firmly in front of him and was dusting off her hands and clothes.
"You, you climbed up with bare hands?" Song Qingtang asked.
"It's not difficult for people in the mountains to climb a mountain." Xia Zhaoyi said, "If you have nothing to do, go back first. I have to go."
"Wait!" Song Qingtang hurriedly reached out and grabbed her.
Just like when Lao Tong and Zhi Changle dragged her, these men seemed to like to pull her back when they were in a hurry. It happened that she was moving forward with inertia. The consequence of this was that her neck was stuck and her throat was itchy.
It was painful to choke.
Xia Zhaoyi reached out and pinched his neck, his face turned pink from coughing, and asked: "What's the matter?"
"Didn't you say there was something urgent? Why are you watching the excitement up here? Also, how did you climb up? Why did you come to the capital? Where have you been in the past six months?" Song Qingtang couldn't stop once he started talking.
.
Xia Zhaoyi smiled, turned around and walked towards the east, saying: "I'm not watching the excitement, I'm looking at what's useful to me. I climbed up with my hands. As I said, I'm a person from the mountains. I came to the capital,
Because I have my own things to do, this is my private matter. I have been rushing to the capital for the past six months and have never been to other places." After saying that, she glanced at Song Qingtang who was following her, "I've finished my answer.
Can you leave?"
"You come with me, many people are looking for you."
Xia Zhaoyi smiled lightly: "Why."
Although he was smiling, the disdain in his tone made Song Qingtang feel a bit cold.
He reached out to pull her again, but she dodged him first.
The little girl turned back to look at him and said displeasedly: "Stop pulling my collar at will."
"There is no reason," Song Qingtang said solemnly, "If I want you to come with me, you have to come with me. Many people in the court are looking for you, even the emperor is looking for you."
"The imperial court?" Xia Zhaoyi curled his lips and smiled, "Which imperial court? Whose imperial court?"
"Do you know what you are talking about? I see that you are young, so I thought I didn't hear what you just said," Song Qingtang said, "Don't say these rebellious words in the future."
"Go back," Xia Zhaoyi said, "Don't meddle in my affairs."
"You have to come with me." Song Qingtang tried to pull her again.
"Are you still here?" Xia Zhaoyi looked at his hand, "Have you forgotten the pain after the scar is healed? It's true that you people like to forcefully oppress others."
"We people?"
Xia Zhaoyi turned around and walked forward: "This is what you call the emperor and the court."
Song Qingtang's words sounded really weird, but he couldn't tell what was wrong. He raised his heels and said, "Ah Li, I don't want to be rough with you, but you must come with me now."
"No one has the right to pressure me to do anything I don't want to do," the little girl ignored him at all and said coldly without stopping, "You don't have the ability either."
