Back in the palace, Xiao Ling followed the fourth prince back to Xuanyan Palace. After closing the door, the fourth prince began to cool down on Xiao Ling.
Xiao Ling was very puzzled: "Master?" She didn't seem to have done anything wrong, right?
"What a shame!" The fourth prince glared at Xiao Ling.
Xiao Ling was still confused, "Master?"
"To be fooled around because I'm illiterate is so embarrassing to my master."
Ugh! It seems like she really has nothing to argue with. But the problem is, even if she didn't mean it, she still has to plead guilty: "The slave is guilty."
"Huh!" The fourth prince was actually not that angry, but when he thought about her being tricked into running outside for an hour, he felt unhappy. If the master was unhappy, then the servant would naturally not be happy either. Especially the one in front of him.
The little eunuch who seemed not to care about anything was even less happy: "From today on, you will teach me how to read. If something like this happens next time, don't blame me for being unkind."
Xiao Ling was stunned, is this really a punishment? This is obviously a reward! In this palace, learning to read is a great favor and a supreme honor! "Thank you, Master." As a slave, she must now
Show surprise and joy.
The fourth prince was satisfied and waved his hand: "Okay, you go down first and I will arrange someone for you later."
"Thank you, Master." He came out with a thousand thanks.
After returning to their residence, Xiaowuzi just woke up. After washing up, he went to wait on her. She was left alone, so he hurried into the bathroom and cleaned himself up as quickly as possible.
Then...then she just stood there holding her clothes in a daze.
'What is this?' She looked at the paper that had fallen out of the waistband of her clothes and had been folded into dozens of strips, which were thinner than her belt. 'When did this thing appear?'
He looked up and looked outside, slowly unpacking the paper.
Fourteen small words were written on the long and thin paper: The plum blossoms have fallen, the swallows are lingering at the bottom of the drum, and the blue clouds and peach streams look towards the western mountains.
She couldn't understand it at all! Fortunately, it didn't matter if she didn't understand. She wrote down these words and burned the paper directly. While Xiao Ling was deeply puzzled, she also breathed a sigh of relief. All this time, she didn't know who she was,
She doesn’t know why she appears here, and she doesn’t know why she appears here. All this time, there is no sign or hint. She is like a rootless duckweed with no place to rely on. Let her stay
I am also panicked, and I am also panicked when I run away.
And now... although this matter made her a little scared, it finally showed some signs.
No matter why, no matter who is behind this little forest, it is progress. No matter what the purpose of the person behind it is, it has finally begun. Where there is a beginning, there will be an end, right?
But the question is, who stuffed this paper on her body?
She went through all the events of the day in detail, and finally zeroed in on two people. One was the passerby whom she asked for directions, and the other was the person who bumped into her and ran away. But she couldn't even find that person.
I didn't see anything about the person... I remember that the person didn't seem to be very tall, so he was probably a child.
well!!
"Xiao Linzi, Xiao Linzi. Hurry..." Suddenly, a panicked and chaotic voice rushed into her eardrums. She squeezed the paper ash into her hand, and all the ash turned into black stains, staining the palm of her hand.
.
"What's wrong?" He also poured a cup of tea on his body and frowned, "Why is it so urgent? I was so scared that I got dirty."
