A white lotus attracts swallows

Chapter 33

"Princess?!"

"Guards?!"

Xin Yuanwei, who was struggling to climb over the wall, and Yan Lu, who was waiting in full force, exclaimed at the same time.

"Princess, come late at night, but what's the matter?"

Cheng Hua poked his head out from behind him to look at the two of them staring at each other, and saluted very calmly.

The purpose of climbing over the wall in the middle of the night couldn't be more obvious.Cheng Hua didn't expect that this foreign princess would be so indifferent to her own reputation, which is also very strange.

"I'm going to have a candle-lit night chat with you!" Xin Yuanwei said with a matter-of-fact expression, not paying any attention to the expressions of the two of them, and jumped off the window sill carelessly. "By the way, guard, why are you here?"

"The princess broke in through the window, and I thought it was an assassin attack, so I wanted to protect Mr. Cheng Zhouquan." Annoyed during the day, good things were interrupted again at night, Yan Lu almost gritted his teeth and said something.After finishing speaking, I felt aggrieved, and added: "I hope the princess will come in from a more normal place in the future, so as not to accidentally injure the princess's golden body by the guards in the court who have no eyes with their swords."

This Xin Yuanwei is a straight person, and she doesn't understand the twists and turns of other people's words, so she didn't take the word "normal" he emphasized, but complained: "The main door is locked! Otherwise, you think I'm good at climbing window?"

Cheng Hua glanced at Yan Lu speechlessly, silently thanking Yan Lu for locking the door so that she would not be allowed to break in.

"Okay, okay, I won't pursue you anymore, go out quickly, I'm going to have a talk with Cheng Hua Bingzhuye."

Xin Yuanwei flicked her hair chicly, expressing her broad mind magnanimously, making Yan Lu kneel down.

"I am ordered to protect Young Master Cheng, but I am sorry that I cannot follow the princess' order."

In Xin Yuanwei's mind, the guards were all loyal characters, and they dared not say what the master said. They didn't expect Yan Lu to refute her, and they didn't react for a while, so the two stared at each other again.

"Princess, it's so late, and the lonely man and the widow are in the same room. If people find out, there will inevitably be gossip, which will tarnish the reputation of the princess. Besides, the princess is so beautiful. If she goes to bed late and looks haggard, I don't know how much it will be hurt." Let the heart go. Why don't the princess go back first, and Cheng Hua will come to greet her tomorrow morning and chat with the princess. How about that?"

"What's the point of going to bed late one night?" Xin Yuanwei asked back, and after a while she showed a comprehending smile: "Oh~ I know you are shy. Don't be shy, if you are attracted to me, it is me If someone dares to speak of you, I will beat him!"

Yan Lu seemed unable to listen any longer, he said goodbye with a tense face, pursed his lips, opened the door and went out.

Seeing his furious look, Cheng Hua thought something was wrong in his heart, dodged Xin Yuanwei's hand to pull him into the back room, and struggled: "Cheng Hua rushed to the palace early this morning and couldn't rest for a moment. I'm a bit sleepy at the moment, I'm afraid I can't talk about something interesting with the princess. Besides, the sky is dark, not as bright and pleasant as the day, so the princess should go back to recharge her batteries and have a good time tomorrow, how about it?"

With such obvious refusals, the nervous little princess finally came to her senses: "After talking for so long, you just don't want to talk to me at night by candlelight, do you?"

Cheng Hua cupped his hands: "Cheng Hua didn't dare, but he was really out of energy."

Xin Yuanwei stared at him angrily for a while, and finally lost her battle, and said wearily, "Hmph, Boss took great pains to come out to find you, but you just rejected me like this. Well, I'll go back first today, Tomorrow you have to fulfill your promise and stay with me well."

The annoying little princess finally let go, and Cheng Hua also relaxed with a smile: "A gentleman's words."

Xin Yuanwei dawdled for a while, and then the boss reluctantly turned around and returned to the guest hall. Cheng Hua was also glared fiercely by the black-clothed shadow guard who chased after her and followed behind her.

Ugh……

Rubbing his swollen forehead, looking at the empty room behind him, Cheng Hua sighed again, and decided to coax his lord guard before going to rest.

Yan Lu sat restlessly on the stone steps not far from the side hall, staring at the missing jade plate in the sky with gloom.

His Hua'er is probably sitting hand in hand with that unruly and willful princess on the soft bed and chatting all over the world. It is so late, he may be a little sleepy, and he may have a slight nasal voice when he speaks. Slowly, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, he was lazily leaning on the head of the bed, his whole person looked and sounded so soft that it made people feel crisp to the bone.

I must have been blind before, so I turned a blind eye to him in the past year.

No, not quite.

Yan Lu was blowing the evening wind that was starting to warm up, thinking ecstatically, maybe he began to fall in love with him at that time, but he was always unwilling to admit it in his heart.

When did it start?

Is it from the starlight in those peach blossom eyes after seeing him hiding in a place where no one was drinking tears, or from seeing him slightly open his red lips to reveal his soft pink tongue when he was sleeping soundly?Is it from when he held an umbrella and grinned at him in the mist and rain, or from when he saw his gentle eyes through the thin wine vapor when he was drunk?

He suddenly remembered that on a night when he returned home late, Cheng Hua was still waiting for him at the Jingxin Pavilion. At that time, it was already a little firefly. He leaned slightly on the railing, resting his chin on one hand, and looked up at the moon in the sky slightly.The whole body was silent, if he hadn't turned his head and smiled at him, Yan Lu would almost have thought that he was going to go away like Wang Shu.

Now his Hua'er might really leave him.

Even when he was looking at the moon and feeling melancholy alone, his feeling was still sharp, but the slight friction of the cloth was enough to wake him up.

"...Hua'er?"

Cheng Hua had already settled his expression, and he was not surprised when he turned his head. He said with a little regret: "You noticed it so lightly, and I wanted to surprise you."

"..." It was a pleasant surprise at first, but when I thought of the princess, I felt bitter again: "Why did you come out, where is the princess?"

"You are angry, how dare I care about the princess."

Cheng Hua walked around in front of him, took the initiative to sit on his lap, and buried his head in his arms.

Although the words were very frivolous, Yan Lu knew that he must have suffered a bit in order to take care of his mood.At the moment, he didn't care about any melancholy and sadness, hugged him distressedly, and replied sullenly: "I'm not angry."

Cheng Hua, however, had a rare bitter face, and he squirmed in his arms like a child who couldn't eat candy: "I was called up early in the morning to rush to the palace, and as soon as I arrived, I ran to comfort Bai Yi, to comfort you. Well, I went back to my life without any time to eat, and then I was entangled by the princess and couldn't escape, now I can finally rest, and you are still angry with me, why are you so bad?"

Cheng Hua had hardly complained to others, and now Yan Lu was completely confused, and there was nothing he could do when he heard the rising grievance at the end, so he hurriedly hugged him tighter, and kissed the corner of his eyes: "I don't want Get mad, don't get mad, really, I promise, promise."

"I didn't attract that princess. She pestered me, but I couldn't do anything about it. I'm still wronged."

"My fault, my fault."

"Then," Cheng Hua quietly raised his head to look at his expression, guessing that it should be almost the same, and asked stickily, "Can you feel at ease now? The princess has been persuaded to go back by me."

Yan Lu repeatedly promised, picked him up, looked at his tired little face in the moonlight, kissed him several times in distress, and went back to the side hall together.

Cheng Hua was really exhausted. As soon as he touched the bed, drowsiness flooded his mind, and it didn't take long before he fell asleep in a daze.Yan Lu pressed the quilt for him, stared at him carefully for a while, touched his flushed face, and finally tapped his forehead lightly, and then walked out of the hall lightly.
