Yuchi Gong met Lihua unexpectedly, and the storm hidden deep in his heart due to the incident at the Ministry of War was slowly calmed down and became calm.
Normally, he would have gone over to tease the little thief, but not today.
He took one last look at the person who was unconsciously immersed in the book, turned around with a stack of drawings, and was about to leave through the door through other bookshelves.
Unexpectedly, the corner of the drawing touched the bookshelf. Yuchi Gong quickly turned his head to look, and saw Lihua raising her head in confusion to identify the source of the sound. She was about to find him.
He secretly shouted bad!
Although Yuchi Gong changed into regular clothes when he came down from the court, the clothes he wore were not at all the "imperial master" attire he wore when he went to see Lihua in the past.
If the two of them met face to face, Lihua would definitely be able to see through his identity with her keenness.
Yuchi Gong immediately walked quickly out of this row of bookshelves and went around to other rows of bookshelves, trying to avoid him with the heavy bookshelves. In his panic, the top drawing fell and was not noticed.
While Lihua was reading a book, she suddenly heard a sound coming from her. She turned her head and looked toward the source of the sound, and saw a shadow flashing past the bookshelf not far away, and something fluttering and falling down.
Her heart skipped a beat, would she also meet bad people here?
It shouldn't be, Lihua felt that she had gone astray, closed the top book in her hand, walked over and asked: "Who is it?"
Yuchi Gong's heart beat a little faster. He identified the direction of the pear blossoms and adjusted his position. He felt that he was hiding like a thief while he was living a dignified life. It was inexplicably exciting.
Lihua asked and got no response. She listened carefully and could make out the sound of subtle footsteps and the occasional sound of clothing hitting shelves.
She looked hesitant, this man was so sneaky, could he be a thief?
There are many precious books here, and Lihua Bai read a lot of them, feeling that he had a sacred responsibility to keep them, and he must understand them.
So Lihua chased after her and asked in a stern voice, "Who is here?"
Yuchi Gong circled several bookshelves to avoid him, thinking that this little thief was so cunning that it would be difficult to avoid him.
Lihua did not dare to push too hard, fearing that the thief would jump over the wall and start deceiving others: "Do you want to read a book or look for a book? I have also read here for some time, and I can help you look for it."
But in his heart, he was thinking about how to attract the attention of the palace keeper, and together they would stop the thief.
She didn't quite understand how the thief got in. After all, people were guarding the outside, so ordinary people couldn't get in.
The two of them chased and dodged, and Lihua became more and more certain that this person was doing something shady. She kept her mouth steady but did not stop walking.
In broad daylight, it was the thief who was afraid, not her. What was she afraid of? It was not a dark night - the moon was dark and the wind was high, which was a good time to kill people and steal goods.
She caught the person and avoided the loss of the library, so it was impossible to say that she had made a great contribution.
Lihua thought about it, she didn't want any other reward, just let her take a look at the books on the bookshelves that the emperor personally arranged, and see which books were so precious, what was written in them, and whether they were there or not.
Emperor's calligraphy.
Lihua has been looking for the emperor's comments these days, like finding a needle in a haystack, it all depends on fate!
So of course she was greedy for those books on the shelves. The books that could be arranged by the emperor himself had a much higher chance of containing calligraphy treasures. Even if the calligraphy treasures could not be found, these books were still very valuable.
Lihua was making a lot of calculations in her mind, holding a few books and wandering around among the bookshelves, chasing after them even more energetically.
It was much more difficult to hide than to chase. Yuchi Gong secretly complained. As he expected, this little thief was cunning. Even though he was chasing after him, he was very organized and had seen several key locations.
Every time he was about to pass through, people would rush to key positions and wait for him. Chasing him was nothing more than a cover-up, trying to stun him.
However, he also had a backup plan, waiting for people to relax their vigilance before looking for an opportunity to exit through the secret door.
Lihua chased for a long time, almost shouting for someone to catch the thief, but these movements did not alert the palace people outside.
She thought maybe the palace maid was too far away?
This is very possible. Usually no one comes here. People in the Treasury Palace have a lot of work at this time. Spring has just passed and they need to arrange to dry books to get rid of the moisture. They may be busy outside and do other things.
She felt that there was no way to pursue him like this. The thief was obviously a thief.
So after passing a row of bookshelves, she suddenly stopped and stopped talking. She bent down and waited for a while, holding her breath and slowly walking on tiptoes towards another bookshelf.
When Yu Chigong heard the sound of his footsteps, he immediately knew that something was wrong. Lihua was trying to trick him. He did not hide the sound of footsteps while chasing and hiding. He reacted very quickly and adjusted his strategy to cover up his own footsteps.
After chasing and hiding, the whole library was as quiet as if there was no one there. The two of them were like hide and seek, trying to find each other through the gaps.
Yuchi Gong moved lightly towards the secret door.
Just when he was about to succeed, a very surprised word broke the silence: "Mr. Yu?"
Yuchi Gong turned around and saw Lihua's hazy face appearing in the gap between the bookshelf behind him.
Lihua raised her pointed toes and looked in disbelief at the fact that the thief she was chasing was none other than the monster!
The place where they are at the moment is located in the innermost part of the library, filled with dusty books that the emperor thought were not worth looking at. The light is much darker than usual, and is only brighter at noon and with hand lamps.
It was difficult to identify in such dim light, so Lihua made a guess based on the height and the somewhat familiar outline, which was pretty close.
There were few people in the palace who were so tall. Lihua had to stand on tiptoes to see her head through the gap. With such a stature, Lihua had only seen one evildoer since she entered the palace.
Yuchi Gong was very helpless and secretly cursed that the little thief deserved to be a thief, and he could be approached by her just like this.
Since he has been called by his name, he has no choice but to respond, otherwise the thief will come back to test him and he will be annoyed again when he finds out the truth.
Yuchi Gong was secretly glad that the light was dim and the colors and accessories of his clothes could not be seen clearly.
Hidden in the darkness, Yun Danfengqing asked, "Why are you here?"
Lihua was a little speechless, the dead monster had learned to strike first.
She said: "I am allowed to read here, where is Mr. Yu?"
Lihua wanted to move to Yu Chigong's row of bookshelves. Unexpectedly, Yu Chigong noticed her intention and followed her: "Sir, I can also read here."
Lihua went to his row of bookshelves, but he went to her original row of bookshelves. The two of them were equivalent to changing places.
Lihua was extremely puzzled, feeling that the monster was hiding from her, and then walked around the bookshelf: "Then why were you hiding just now?"
To her, it was more like he came in secretly and was afraid of being discovered!
Yuchi Gong held the drawing and kept a distance from Lihua, preventing her from getting close enough to see her clothes.
Although it's dark here, it's not safe and you still have to be careful.
He chuckled lightly and said with a bit of joking: "I was afraid of Mr. that day. I couldn't afford to offend him, and I could still afford to hide."
Codeword Chicken: Come on, come on, hide and seek
Wu Xue:?
Codeword Chicken: Oh, Maoqiu, I’m not hiding from you, I’m talking about your master and your mistress playing together.
Wu Xue's hair is exploding. His name is Wu Xue, not Furball. He wants to pounce on the chicken.
