my guard

Chapter 441

Liu Yujing tells a story to Ji Zhang:
"There was a beautiful little girl who met a person when she was a child, and she asked that person, 'Can you grow up with me'. The person said, 'Yes'. The little girl thought that the promise must be kept, and she was slow Growing up slowly, from eight to ten years old, from ten to 15 years old. In the middle, that person really stayed with her."

"and then?"

"Then one day, that man said that he was going far away and could not be with the little girl. He forgot their agreement."

"and then?"

"And then, he also forgot about the little girl, got married and started a career, and lived his own life."

After a long silence and shallow breathing, Liu Yujing looked at Ji Zhang.

Ji Zhang said, "If it's true as you said, then it's not just a moment of forgetting."

"Ok?"

"He used a long time to forget."

The wind blows her clothes, and the fragrance blows towards him.He stared blankly at her——

That was to spend his whole life slowly forgetting her.

When Ji Zhang was 15 years old, he went to Prince Ping's Mansion for the first time.Before that, he was adopted by the master along with many other children of the same age.The master taught him martial arts and calligraphy. He is an orphan. Although the master is strict, he is the best person to him.

When he was 15 years old, he entered Prince Ping's Mansion with several senior brothers.It is said that there is a five-year rotation, and the Prince Ping Mansion will have a new batch of guards.Master told Ji Zhang that if he could stay in Prince Ping's Mansion, his future would be brighter.

Master didn't say this to Ji Zhang, he said it to Ji Zhang's brothers.For a boy like Ji Zhang who has just grown up, other aristocratic families will use him, but a place as noble as Pingwang's Mansion has better choices, so he will not be used.Therefore, Ji Zhang and his senior brother came to the palace with the main purpose of gaining knowledge.

Looking up, there is a large red gold plaque with nine dragons and green ground, and the inscription "Ping Wang's Mansion" is written in wild cursive.The two majestic lions by the door look down on everyone.Just this face-to-face meeting scared the half-grown children who were laughing and joking before so that they dared not speak.

I was led in from the side door, and the corridor was full of waists and teeth, with high eaves and teeth, flying towers on both sides, carved and embroidered thresholds, and a winding corridor.The tiles on the roof were as dense as fish scales, like bird leather, and flying like feathers, pressing on everyone's hearts, making it difficult to breathe.

These guards were taken to the guards' office in another courtyard. The master first took the roster to see King Ping, and then hurried away with his outstanding senior brothers.The eyes of the other children dimmed seeing that they were hopeless.

The housekeeper saw that they were bored, so he allowed them to walk around in the other courtyard, but they were not allowed to go out, and offended the nobles of the palace.

Ji Zhang walked around and moved around. Among the boys of his age, he was rare and calm.But after all, he is a young man, entering the palace for the first time, his face is calm, but his heart is also comfortable.The guards guarded them, the servants and maids came and went, and the manager stood at the door pointing at them... The young man was infected by the tense atmosphere around him, and his heart became depressed.

Always walking in the other courtyard, he suddenly heard a tragic cry, the cry was suffocated and muffled, with a howling sound, it sounded extremely terrifying.Ji Zhang was shocked by the crying, and a layer of goosebumps appeared on his back.

Didn't the housekeeper tell them to be quiet?How could anyone dare to cry so resentfully, so ugly?

Curiously following the sound, I saw a girl in pink sitting on the steps under the eaves.Her fine hair is shiny, her eyes are round and bright, and she wipes her tears with her hands, crying very sadly.

The little girl looked up and saw him, her eyes were watery, and the stains of tears hung on her face, making a delicate little face carved in pink and jade look miserable.She choked up, "Don't tell anyone."

Because she was crying too hard, when she was chatting with him, she covered her little mouth and couldn't help hiccupping, her voice was muffled.

Hearing her crying and belching, Ji Zhang's mouth curled up.He never liked children, but now he thought she was really funny.
