weird little princess

Chapter 57

Sleepless all night, not only because the next day is Shangguantong's 60th birthday, but more importantly, the man named Lin Yu always comes to my mind, his appearance, his words, his gentleness, and even The tenderness he gave me that didn't belong to me, one by one, is always lingering in my mind. I always have an illusion that I am the person he is looking for, but then I curse myself Didn't Han Ye say that Ruoyan is the princess of the current dynasty? Delicate princess?I just thought about it all night, and I don't know how long it took before I fell asleep.

I didn't sleep very well all night, and there was still a psychological battle to be fought the next day. When I woke up, I found that there were still tears in my eyes. Did I cry? Why didn't I know, or was it too hard?Han Ye's mood dropped to a freezing point with his dazed look, but he still said to me calmly: "Xue'er, today's performance is very important, and whether you can win Shangguantong's complete trust depends on it. What do you think in your heart, let go of the children's affair now, we are all killers fighting for the organization, understand?" Looking at Han Ye's determined eyes, I nodded.I walked to the washbasin, washed briefly, and washed away the tears on my face. My only purpose now is the task, and I can't ruin the whole organization's hard work just because of myself.

After washing up, I stood in front of Han Ye again with a forced smile, and walked out of the door with him. A trace of sadness welled up in my heart, somewhat incongruous with the Shangguan Mansion, which was decorated with lanterns and festoons today.The Shangguan family is indeed the largest family in the south of the Yangtze River. The carved railings and corridors, the engraved gold and silver carvings, show off their wealth and honor. Thinking about the poor people who were poorly clothed and lacking food and clothing along the way, I felt as if I was being trapped. Something is pulling, it hurts a lot.As soon as I stepped into the lobby, I felt a flash in front of my eyes. I looked around and saw that they were all gifts from some officials and wealthy businessmen in order to curry favor with Shangguan Tong. They were all rare treasures, but they could all be bought with silver. It’s just stuff, they’re all vulgar things. I smiled secretly in my heart. The most important thing Shangguantong needs in his life is money. Giving these things to Shangguantong is like visiting a pork seller and using pork as a gift. How could Shangguantong care about such an unnecessary move.Han Ye and I looked at each other and smiled knowingly, knowing that we were one step closer to our goal.Shangguan Tong was wearing an exquisite silk jacket from Liulifang, and the jade pendant on his waist was a rare ancient jade. He walked from the inner courtyard, half-closed his eyes, with a contented look, like a lazy cat after eating and drinking. Same, but his look just made me feel more disgusted.

He glanced around the lobby calmly, and it seemed that he didn't find anything that interested him, but he still had to say polite words in the officialdom, as usual, it was just some kind of thank you, I dare not take it It's like, I can hear calluses on my ears.However, I still found a detail. When Shangguan Tong was talking, he glanced at the direction of me and Han Ye. Although the time was short, I could feel that he was waiting for me and wanted to find out more about me. The truth is, if I am really the young master of that rich family in the north, then the birthday gift I presented must be extraordinary.From the looks of it, this play is getting better and better as it is sung.
