Chapter 1053 The Third Watch (1)

From this day on, Xinmeng continued to play the role of Xiao Jiu, and dutifully served as the personal attendant of the Eighth Prince Xiao Lang.

Since his legs became inconvenient, Xiao Lang seldom went out of the palace, unless the emperor summoned him to the palace for an audience.But he is a prince after all, even if he lives in seclusion, it is impossible to completely isolate himself from the outside world.

He still maintains his old habit of entrusting Yan Qing to handle urgent and important matters, so Yan Qing often needs to go out of the house to handle errands, and he doesn't have much time to accompany Xiao Lang.

Now, with the addition of Xiao Jiu as a personal attendant, Yan Qing can finally run errands outside without worrying about the master who stays in the mansion all the time.

And Xiao Jiu's job, to put it simply, is to stay by Xiao Lang's side for twelve hours, listening to his orders to do things.

Because the scope of action has been reduced a lot compared to three years ago, Xiao Lang's life now is very simple and leisurely.

On fine days, he likes to enjoy calamus flowers in the garden, or play chess in the pavilion, or write, draw and read military books in the study.

On rainy days, he would stay in the room, or watch the rain scene through the window, or ask Xiao Jiu to fetch the guqin, and play music to the sound of the rain outside.

When he was doing these things, Xiao Jiu only needed to accompany him and make him a pot of the fragrant Royal Biluochun.

During this period, she ate and lived with Xiao Lang.Every time he eats, he always doesn't eat much, and he always asks Xiao Jiu to eat the leftover dishes.He couldn't even finish the supplements that the kitchen brought in at night, so he let Xiao Jiu finish them in the end.Because she didn't have to worry about Zhao Lin suddenly appearing beside the bed in the middle of the night, she slept much more securely than before.

Such days passed quickly, before I knew it, Xin Meng had been in the eighth prince's mansion for a month and a half, and had been Xiao Lang's personal attendant for half a month.

Compared with half a month ago, she is a little fatter and her face is ruddy, but her complexion is still dark.

Today, the weather is sunny and cloudless.

Early in the morning, Xinmeng accompanied Xiao Lang to the garden, pushed him along the path slowly, stopped by the small lake when he was tired, and watched the calamus flowers by the lake with him.

She was still sitting on that rock, and after looking at the calamus for a while, she shifted her gaze to Xiao Lang, quietly looking at his handsome profile.

For the past half month, she could see him whenever she raised her head, but she never got tired of watching him.

In her heart, an idea gradually took shape: even if it was the deadline of the bet, he still wouldn't recognize her, and she was already very satisfied with this time of being together day and night.These warm memories should be enough to support her through the long years in the underground palace.

Chirping and chirping came from not far behind Xiao Lang.

Xin Mengxun looked over at the reputation, saw Zhao Lin standing under a tree, saw her looking over, compared her right hand to a knife, gestured at the wrist of her left hand, then raised three fingers of her right hand to point to the sky, and then pointed down He pointed to where he was standing.

She couldn't help but turn pale, and after a moment of silence, she nodded slightly to Zhao Lin.

Zhao Lin raised the corners of his lips, let out a sneer, turned and left.

"Xiao Jiu, let's go back." Xiao Lang drove the wheelchair around and saw that Xin Meng didn't seem to hear, so he raised his voice, "Xiao Jiu, we're going back!"

Xinmeng came back to her senses and saw Xiao Lang looking at her thoughtfully with those twinkling peach blossom eyes.She quickly stood up, lowered her head slightly and went around the back of the wheelchair.

"When he turned around, Zhao Lin had already left, so he probably didn't see Zhao Lin, let alone Zhao Lin's hand gesture." She was pushing the wheelchair while thinking to herself.
