Zhuang Li's heart had originally just been about to calm down, but the scene she saw was undoubtedly like a bolt from the blue.
However, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but grin as he returned a huge smile. He almost had to step behind his ear...
She had thought about it for a few days, and could finally be considered to have met him …
He did not forget her, as if he had already given his best answer.
Wang Su must have been watched by Eunuch Li like before, so he sneaked out of the palace by himself. He changed into a luxurious robe with bamboo patterns embroidered on it, looking like a noble child. He also wore a simple scented bag hanging from his waist. It seemed like the emperor's clothing for leaving the palace was getting more and more complete and well-equipped …
"You still dare to laugh?" It wasn't easy for Wang Su to free himself up, so he hurriedly sneaked out. He wanted to see how the stray kitten he kept looked like. Who would have thought that as the owner, she would actually be thrown into the air … As soon as he arrived, he was met with a question from the maid in charge. Only then did he realize that his little kitten had long since lost its patience, scratched its cage, and went out for a stroll.
He was naturally especially angry in his heart. He almost had the impulse to drag all the servants in the palace out and beat them up. After calming down, he realized that he was actually throwing a tantrum like a child …
He suppressed the displeasure in his heart and continued to create cold air in the hall. Although it was a sunny day in August, no one dared to enjoy the cool air. He was afraid that he would be frostbitten and lose his life in serious cases.
Wang Su came over from the afternoon and that audacious girl actually went crazy outside for an entire afternoon. He did not want to send people to find her, which would ruin her good mood.
He still remembered the time when the two of them went to inspect the disaster together. That girl seemed to have returned to his home, feeling that everything was strange, wanting to see and touch everything. His eyes seemed to be filled with sparkling stars. He was especially happy.
However, what he did not expect was that the girl's guts had been fattened up quite a bit, and she did not return until dusk. He was dragged by the court lady until he appeared before her, out of breath. His entire face was covered in sweat, and his hair was jumping all over the place.
In the end, he was still angry and thought that he should at least take care of this crazy girl. However, the person in front of him revealed a smile the moment he saw him.
That smile was extremely brilliant, causing those who saw it to feel their hearts warm up. The fury that had been brewing just a moment ago had suddenly disappeared without them knowing where …
That small face was extremely beautiful, Wang Su wondered why he didn't feel it before … Or was it just because he liked her now? His little kitten seemed to have recovered extremely well. That smile grew from his heart, instantly chasing away all the ice and snow around him.
That face was covered in dust.
However, he didn't feel dirty and without thinking, he held his face up. It seemed that every time he held her in his hands, his heart would warm up with him.
Although Zhuang Li heard the somewhat imposing rebuke, it did not affect her emotions in the slightest. She wandered outside for an entire day, and when she returned, she was unexpectedly able to see the emperor. This day was already exceptionally perfect … She was still muttering to herself: "Why didn't I think about it when I left this morning …"
However, if she had known in the morning that Wang Su would come, then she would be unwilling to leave no matter what.
Although the man seemed to be emitting cold air from all directions, he could not help but rush forward. Wants to warm him up.
"When did the emperor come over?"
"Noon."
Zhuang Li's heart still thumped once … It almost stopped …
He came over at noon … He was truly a coward … He left the emperor alone in the palace for the entire afternoon … How tiresome …
He forced a smile on his face.
"Then... Then, Your Majesty, it's a good thing that we didn't miss dinner … Right... "Let's go …"
As he spoke, even he began to tremble. Although he was very scared, he still felt guilt and extreme regret from the bottom of his heart. If he had known that he would come, he wouldn't have had the time to stroll around.
It had already been a long time since they last saw each other. Was that person fatter or skinnier? They both wanted to know in their hearts.
Wang Su could only sigh helplessly, he pulled her hand and sat down, and at the same time, instructed the servants to prepare food.
Zhuang Li was finally feeling hungry, and after seeing what was being eaten, she naturally began to wolf it down. Wang Su on the other hand, ate slowly and carefully, and spent the majority of the time watching Zhuang Li eat.
No matter how thick-skinned she was, she would still feel embarrassed by what she saw. She hurriedly told the story of today while she was in the middle of chewing. She told Qing You about the strange things that she and Qing You had bought. From meat buns to small flower baskets. And then she would open her hand and pull at her clothes and talk
"Look good, this year's popular style …" As she spoke, she stood up and walked around, as if this was the best she could do to let Wang Su clearly see the level of appreciation she had for him. Naturally, it was exceptionally high.
It was like a prodigal woman patiently showing off her spoils of war.
Later on, Zhuang Li thought about how she was really happy at that time. No matter when or where, women were always like this. She liked the odd bits and pieces. She collected them like her own treasures. If they were a modern couple, then it would definitely be a woman who took out her new clothes, bags, shoes, and other things from the bazaar and showed them to him one by one on the floor.
Although the latter did not dare to be interested, she had the appearance of a strict wife who could not say anything. As long as his wife was happy, he could save a lot of trouble.
The evening palace was actually the most beautiful time. The sky was very high and the sun had dyed the blue sky a brilliant golden color. The design of the palace was extremely tricky. Next to the palace was a high mountain, which also belonged to the royal garden. The mountain was lush with vegetation. During her stay here, Zhuang Li often saw wild rabbits.
"I heard that there are deer, wild chickens …"
"There are also wild boars and leopards …" Wang Su added
"The Emperor has hunted on this mountain?"
Wang Su shook his head. Only now did Zhuang Li remember what the young eunuch said. Wang Su rarely came to this palace, so he was probably not as familiar with the structure as he was before. However, a leopard … Wouldn't that be dangerous?
Wang Su looked at the little girl beside him, who had changed into a terrified expression, and started to laugh.
"Yeah, when I was a kid. Father brought us brothers to the palace for the summer break. The next day Big Brother shouted that he was going hunting. Our brothers were only slightly older than him, so they all liked to listen to him. Halfway up the hill, we were separated. I was left behind. "I didn't expect to meet a leopard …"
Zhuang Li could not help but take a deep breath and listen to what Wang Su was saying.
"And then?" A child who was too young to fight a chicken, encountering a leopard was such a terrifying memory that it gave people goosebumps.
"And then it was gone. I was cut by a leopard's leg, so royal father sent me back to the palace in advance … "
"Ah?" That's it? "
"That's it." He spoke extremely casually. However, Zhuang Li could not help but start to daydream about how a little child who did not understand human nature would encounter a ferocious wild beast in the middle of the mountain forest.
"Are you afraid?"
Wang Su seemed to be carefully considering this question. Finally, he opened his mouth …
"I don't think so. My mother loved to tell me stories about the countryside when I was a child, about how leopards and wolves fed their children. There was a leopard that was injured, but before dying, it struggled back into its own nest in order to give its cub a final feeding …
So when I saw the leopard... "It's like seeing my mother's mother, the mother of leopards …"
Zhuang Li shook her head like a rattle drum. This silly child really doesn't know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is. A mother leopard is not someone that is easy to mess with.
It seemed that if he had children in the future, he would have to carefully choose the bedtime story he wanted to tell them … It would be safer to talk about Snow White and the seven dwarfs.
Wang Su actually couldn't spend the night in the palace; he had hidden it from the palace when he came out, so it was natural that he wouldn't be able to hide it for too long. He had to go back before the black was cut off, if not the Eunuch Li who were used as a shield in the palace would only be able to cry in front of the palace gate.
"Stop wandering around... I'll let you go this time … If you really want to go out, then bring along guards or something … Do you think you are very good with the Son of Heaven? "He is not a good person in the capital …"
Zhuang Li promptly waved her hand, "No need, no need. I am already safe enough … I'm just a little girl, it would be weird if I were to walk around the streets with a bodyguard … "On the contrary, it would attract quite a bit of gossip …"
"If you dislike guards, then I'll send Yun Duan over to you …"
Zhuang Li shook his head with all her might once again, proving that it was exceptionally sturdy. There was no need for anyone to protect him. Yun Duan's small talk and complaints could cost a person's life... Moreover, that Yun Duan had put all his heart into Master. Let him protect me? Look at me, don't I look like I'm the one who took away his lover's enemy …
Just the thought of it was enough to send chills down one's spine...
In the end, he looked at Zhuang Li with extreme sincerity.
"You can't go back to the palace right now, and when you go back, you can't be Zhao Ci, or else you can't have the status of a tea lady. "I'll come see you again, but you have to be good."
His last sentence was exceptionally soft, and her eyes were filled with affection towards the little kitten that her family had raised … This caused Zhuang Li to fall into a warm and gentle land. It was as if her hands and feet were wrapped especially tightly by these warm words.
Wang Su had already mounted his horse and left the palace. On the second day after the matter had passed, Yun Duan appeared at the entrance of the palace. Zhuang Li almost wanted to use the brick to knock himself out … Can God not torment me like this...
