Looking at those sudden and surprised eyes, Chang Sui Ning felt a thump in his heart.
Although I'm a little touched, it's best not to——
"You are the girl brought back by His Highness, little Ah Li!" A Dian pointed at her and said.
"..." Chang Suining silently breathed a sigh of relief.
But she had a guilty conscience.
Yuan Xiang reacted when he heard this, showing a look of surprise.
Although General Dian did not mention the Chang family, based on his intelligence, it is not difficult to analyze clearly that the "little girl Li" must be the wife of the Chang family.
Just say it!
He said that the Chang family's wife and this young man were very similar - even General A Dian mistakenly thought they were the same person!
But General A Dian is just a child, and he can't see that the person in front of him is clearly a young man?
Yuan Xiang couldn't help but shake his head and smile.
"Is it you?" Seeing that Chang Suining didn't answer, A Dian asked again.
"Yes." Chang Suining smiled at him and nodded: "It's me."
She only wears a man's robe so as not to attract too much attention, and her identity is not a secret in Xuance Mansion, nor can it be a secret at all - except for the one named Yuan Xiang, of course.
The man named Yuan Xiang was stunned for a moment when he heard this.
Immediately I became happy again.
In order to appease General A Dian, this young man really did whatever General A Dian said.
"..." Cui Jing looked at his silly and cheerful subordinate with some disgust.
A Dian surrounded Chang Sui Ning and asked questions. He was particularly tall and his eyes were full of curiosity, just like a big dog staring at a small kitten and wanting to poke it with its big paw, but was not sure.
The ground came back: "Why aren't you afraid of me now?"
"Will you hurt me?" Chang Suining asked curiously.
"Of course not!" A Dian straightened his chest and vowed: "His Highness told us that we will protect you!"
After saying that, he said proudly: "Don't you know it? I listen to His Highness the most!"
Chang Sui Ning smiled: "I know now."
Combining his previous words, she said: "So I decided not to be afraid of you anymore."
Ah Dian laughed "Hey", showing his white teeth, and happily raised his hand to support Chang Suining's shoulders, shook him slightly, as if he wanted to lift the person up and weigh him: "Little Ah Li,
You’ve grown a lot taller!”
Then he compared: "But it's still not as tall as me!"
Chang Suining looked at his tall and strong figure and said naturally: "Well, I'm willing to give in."
A Dian smiled even more happily.
"Ning Ning!"
Chang Sui'an hurried over and saw A Dian shaking her sister's shoulders. She was so frightened that her hair stood on end.
Chang Suining saw his expression and said, "I'm fine."
Changsui An breathed a sigh of relief and explained: "I just went to look for General A Dian, but I didn't see him. I heard that he ran away, so I found this place all the way..."
Only then did Chang Suining realize that it turned out that the general he was talking about going to see was A Dian.
"Dad asked me to ask, now that he has returned to Beijing, does General A Dian want to stay at our house for a few days?" Chang Sui'an looked at A Dian.
A Dian nodded hastily: "Think about it!"
Then he glanced at Cui Jing and others behind him and complained: "They don't allow me to go out!"
Several soldiers who were responsible for watching over him expressed their sorrow.
He was not allowed to go out. It was obvious that once he left the door of Xuance Mansion, he ran to Jingshan Gongling Mausoleum when he couldn't stand it. The former prince was buried there. How could he just go in when he said he wanted to? But this A Dian
The general fought his way in several times, so it’s good that he didn’t get beheaded...
"Captain Cui——" Changsui An Muhan looked at Cui Jing for instructions.
Cui Jing's eyes fell on Chang Suining for a moment and nodded.
A Dian immediately jumped up happily: "I can go out!"
With that said, he hurriedly picked up the luggage that fell on the ground.
Chang Suining walked over, bent down to pick up the scattered things for him, and asked with a smile: "You want to bring this all?"
"Yeah!" A Dian picked up a dry snack, wiped it, and stuffed it into his mouth.
Chang Sui Ning picked up the broken silver and copper plates and said, "You were so powerful just now that you almost cut off my nose."
A Dian stopped chewing and said quickly: "I didn't mean it! I'm sorry!"
"Let me blow it for you!" He leaned his head over and blew it towards Chang Suining, but a burst of heartbreak came out.
Chang Suining leaned back to avoid it and waved his hand.
Ah Dian laughed "haha", but more debris spurted out.
"Little A Li, let's eat this for you! This is delicious...His Highness used to bring it to me every time he came back!" He picked out the cleanest piece of sesame shortbread and handed it to Chang Suining.
Chang Suining looked at the shortbread for a moment, then reached out and took it.
The afternoon sun shone down on the courtyard and fell on her, golden and warm, making her feel peaceful and comfortable.
The next moment, the sunlight was blocked by a tall figure. Chang Suining looked up and saw Cui Jing walking over.
With his back to the light, he leaned slightly, stretched out his hand, and handed over a piece of silver that rolled far away.
When Chang Suining took it, his fingertips touched his slightly cold and calloused fingers.
She quickly packed up A Dian's baggage, and A Dian carefully put the bamboo dragonfly in, then held the baggage in her arms and stood up: "Little A Li, let's go quickly!"
Chang Sui'an saluted Cui Jing: "Master Cui, I'm leaving."
Cui Jing nodded, asked Yuan Xiang to see him off, and asked someone to prepare a carriage for A Dian.
When Chang Suining passed by him, he said, "Thank you very much."
Chang Suining looked at him.
She has met Governor Cui many times, but she has never said anything decently. This seems to be the first time he has spoken——
But he said thank you.
For A Dian, thank her.
Did he regard it as his responsibility to take care of A Dian, the former prince's former subordinate?
Chang Suining thought that he had just seen A Dian's fingernails and beards all clean, and that he was white and strong, and he couldn't help but feel more affirmative and trustful of this young general who seemed particularly indifferent.
She smiled politely: "It's just a small matter."
Cui Jing paused for a moment and then said: "When I go to your mansion, I will have more work to do."
When Chang Suining nodded, he felt that the other person was like an elder who repeatedly warned the children before going out——
"Don't worry, Commander." She also promised: "I will take good care of General A Dian."
"That's not right!" A Dian came over and corrected him: "It's me who protects you, little A Li, you're not taller than me!"
After saying that, he took a bite of the shortbread and urged Chang Suining: "If you want to catch up with me, you have to eat more like me!"
Chang Sui'an laughed and said: "Haha, she can't catch up!"
"Maybe." Chang Suining took a bite of the cake and turned to look at A Dian: "right?"
"Well... His Highness often said that you still have to have fantasies!" He threw out a sentence that he didn't fully understand, but he accidentally used it appropriately.
Chang Sui'an laughed again.
Cui Jing watched as several people left chatting and laughing. She felt that the girl's back was walking between two tall men on the left and right, looking particularly delicate and thin——
This was the first time he paid serious attention to this Chang family lady.
But he saw that her back was straight, her black hair was tied into a ponytail and hanging high, and her steps were neat and light, which did not make him feel weak at all.
And one thing...
Cui Jing looked at the head with a ponytail and frowned in wonder.
How could someone's head be so round?
Really round.
It was the roundest one he had ever seen.
What Cui Jing pays attention to is slightly different from ordinary people.
Mingluo, who was not far away, saw where his eyes were focused and looked over, slightly raising his eyebrows.
Madam of the Chang family...
She thought silently in her mind and remembered this identity.
