When he heard that Zi Mo had been found, the Prime Minister was extremely gratified. It must be Rou 'er being blessed by the heavens. However, when would his son be found? When he thought about how he would soon be able to see this daughter he had never seen before, the Prime Minister couldn't help but urge the sedan chair.
"Faster, faster." "Yes, my lord."
Time seemed to stand still. The road from the Imperial Palace to the Prime Minister's residence had clearly taken nearly twenty years, but it was only today that he realized how long it was. That was his daughter. He had never seen her before. It was Rou 'er who had raised her up. It was the only gift Rou 'er had left for her.
After an unknown number of centuries, the voice of a sedan chair bearer came from outside the sedan chair. "Milord, we've arrived."
The Prime Minister nimbly got off the palanquin, ignoring the greetings of the servant by the door, and quickly walked towards the Flowing Cloud Pavilion.
" Old Master, you're back." The Second Mistress walked over with her slender waist. The prime minister looked at her gorgeously dressed appearance, coupled with the smell of rouge. He frowned. He was already in a hurry, and now he waved his hand impatiently, indicating for her to leave.
" But…Old…Master…" The Second Mistress twisted her handkerchief in anger. Seriously, what was so good about that slut's daughter? She was just like her mother. She looked like a demon and only knew how to charm people.
"Housekeeper," the Second Mistress called out arrogantly to the housekeeper who was following the Prime Minister to the Flowing Cloud Pavilion.”The butler respectfully turned around and asked her.
" Go to the kitchen to see if lunch is ready. I'm hungry." The Second Mistress hated this butler the most. He was clearly just a servant, but sometimes his words were more useful than hers. One day, she must fire him.
" Yes, Second Mistress." The butler left expressionlessly, but his manners were very thoughtful, and no one could find any fault with him. This was also the reason why he could be a butler in the Prime Minister's residence for more than ten years.
" Huan 'er, let's go see that slut's daughter too," Second Mistress said to her personal servant girl." Yes, Madam…"
Flowing Cloud Pavilion. Passing by the pond and through the rockery, the prime minister looked at the decorations here and smiled. He must make it up to his younger daughter. He wondered if she was happy to see everything here.
"Xiao Mu?" The Prime Minister saw a woman sitting in the hall drinking tea. Her actions were elegant, and she did not look like a common woman at all. Her entire body exuded nobility, and it was a little out of reach. It was as if she was very, very far away from him, so far that he could only watch but could never reach her side.
Xiaoyan ignored him and continued to drink her tea. The tea here was not bad, but the person who brewed the tea was not very good. She would make it herself when she was free.
" Xiao Mu!" The Prime Minister stepped into the hall and called out to Xiaoyan, who was sitting on the host's seat. She should be nineteen years old and still unmarried. The daughter of a wealthy family was married at the age of sixteen or seventeen. It was his fault. "Prime Minister, right? "Sit down." Xiaoyan interrupted him and looked at the Prime Minister who had not changed out of his court clothes. She put down her teacup and gestured for him to sit down. The prime minister was stunned. Did this daughter really grow up among the people? Didn't they hear that they didn't have enough to eat or wear? Why this temperament?
"Sit," Xiaoyan repeated as if she was the master here and the prime minister was just a guest.
" Er…Xiao Mu, your mother…"" Let's not talk about the past," Xiaoyan interrupted him. She didn't know anything at all, so it was better not to dwell on the past. The Prime Minister nodded. He thought that Rou 'er's death was a huge blow to her, so he didn't want to reminisce.
"Alright, if you have any requests in the future, just say it. Father…will definitely try his best to satisfy you.”The Prime Minister looked at his icy daughter with tears in his eyes. She…was so similar to Rou 'er. Unfortunately, Rou' er was already…sigh! Rou 'er still blamed him. Otherwise, why would she run away when he sent someone to pick her up? Unexpectedly. With just one order from him, they were separated by Yin and Yang.
" Don't worry, I'll find your brother," the prime minister promised. Xiaoyan frowned. " Oh." She picked up her teacup and drank her tea again. She did not want to cause any more trouble. She just wanted to find a safe haven. As long as she had food, water, and shelter, she could leave when she was familiar with this place.
" Err…" There was another awkward silence. The prime minister looked at Xiaoyan in disbelief. If she didn't look exactly the same as the portrait, if she didn't have the bracelet on her hand, he might have suspected that this daughter of his was fake. "Um, do you want to eat first?" The prime minister had thought that his daughter would cry and make a fuss when she came back. This was a little illogical…
" I don't feel like eating now. If there's nothing else, you can leave, Prime Minister." Xiaoyan ordered him to leave, unwilling to pay any more attention to him." Well, Xiao Mu, you should call me father. Don't always call me Prime Minister. It'll be very distant." The Prime Minister was a little embarrassed. If the people in the imperial court saw his current state, his jaw would definitely drop. That's right. Who would have thought that the Prime Minister, who was a man of his word in the imperial court and did things quickly and ruthlessly, would have such a side to him? Moreover, his target was his daughter. This was too funny.
" You're not, and you don't deserve it," Xiaoyan said. She didn't know when it started, but the only father in her heart was that man, the man who often smoked on the living room sofa without saying a word. She knew and understood everything he did.
"Presumptuous. Is this just the attitude you should have towards your father?”At this moment, Second Furen walked in and was even more dissatisfied with Ouyang Zimu. She was indeed a wild girl among the people.
"Who do you think you are? Why are you shouting in my Flowing Cloud Pavilion? "Get out," Xiaoyan said nonchalantly, but the cold air around her was already being released, and it looked like it was going to freeze people to death. The Prime Minister was also shocked. This daughter of hers didn't seem simple. Only the angry Emperor had this kind of aura once, but she was so calm now, it was hard to believe.
Leng Leng on the roof also sucked in a breath of cold air. The murderous aura from this woman was hair-raising. Who was she? The Second Mistress was trembling in fear and relied on the servant girl Huan 'er to support her.
" Miss, don't be angry. Madam didn't mean it," Huan 'er pleaded for Second Madam.
It was so noisy. Xiaoyan was annoyed. And the one on the roof. Seriously, why was it so lively? He was being looked at like a gorilla.
"All of you can leave now. Don't come to my Flowing Cloud Pavilion if you have nothing to do in the future.”Xiaoyan left the hall after saying that. It was better for her to return to her room. This place was too annoying, and that woman's rouge smell was too strong. Seriously, it seemed like there was a price to pay for staying here. She hoped that they wouldn't be too annoying. Otherwise, she didn't know what she would do.
"Xiao Mu? "You…" The prime minister had mixed feelings. Xiaoyan ignored them and left alone. She was not used to having too many people around. Leng Leng frowned. This person gave him the feeling of a killer. Could she be a killer? It shouldn't be. She was so perfect. Leng Leng continued to follow her. He was very interested in her.
Xiaoyan glanced at the cold place and the corners of her mouth slowly curled up into a certain arc. Interesting. This person seemed to be very curious about her. Curious? There was a price to pay.
He slowly walked to his room and Leng Leng quickly landed on the roof of the room. He listened carefully and frowned. Strange? He adjusted his breathing, squatted down, and carefully took down a brick.
"What did you see?" A voice sounded beside him. Leng Leng was shocked and bounced two meters away. " Your reaction isn't that great." Xiaoyan shrugged and looked at Leng Leng indifferently. Leng Leng still had lingering fear. Why didn't he react just now? When did his vigilance become so weak? Or was it that this unfathomable woman in front of him was too powerful? He was also the Hall Master of the Hall of Seven Kills. How could he not notice anyone approaching? This was definitely not possible. If he did this, he could die a thousand times over.
"Who exactly are you?" He stared at Xiaoyan coldly as if he was facing a great enemy, even though he did not notice any trace of internal energy in her. "Ouyang Zimu," Xiaoyan replied, appreciating his nervousness with some amusement. " You know that's not what I'm asking." Leng Leng gripped his sword tightly, ready to attack at any moment. However, he had no confidence in winning. She was too unpredictable.
"A passerby, someone who will eventually leave. Are you satisfied with this answer? Or do you have to fight?”Xiaoyan chuckled as she stroked her long hair. Her hair was simply tied up, giving her a unique charm.
"Are you very confident?" Leng Leng probed. The pressure released by the person opposite him made him feel suffocated. Xiaoyan didn't say anything. She took a deep breath and slowly closed her eyes. Before Leng Leng could react, she suddenly opened her eyes. At this moment, the huge killing intent made him timid. Xiaoyan's eyes turned red, and a blue butterfly spread its wings between her eyebrows.
His cold breathing intensified as he drew his sword. At this moment, Xiaoyan's head moved slightly as if she had heard a voice. Her killing intent instantly vanished, and her eyes returned to their deep black color. The cold space had already returned to the ground. At this moment, the butler walked over.
" Miss, the eldest young master is back. The old master invites you to the dining room for dinner." The butler went straight to the point." There's no need. I'll go after dinner." Xiaoyan refused. She did not like to eat with so many people. Everyone was so hypocritical. The butler moved his lips but did not say anything in the end. He bowed and left.
Xiaoyan watched him leave, unwilling to think about anything complicated. As for the people here, she wouldn't care if she could.
Noticing that Leng Leng had not left yet, Xiaoyan did not say anything more and quietly walked to the side hall. After all the food was prepared, Xiaoyan gestured for the servants to leave and sat down like a lady.
"You should come down and eat too," Xiaoyan said after a while. Leng Leng didn't understand what Xiaoyan meant."Don't make me repeat myself. You can't afford the consequences." Since she couldn't figure it out, Leng Leng decided to stop thinking about it and came down from the roof to sit beside Xiaoyan.
" Eat it," she said without a hint of warmth. After she finished speaking, she started eating by herself. Leng Leng hesitated for a long time before starting to eat lunch.# Cancel all reviews: wdd201302 Time:111420185: 54PM #
