The Hickey of the Demon Lord: The Substitute Princess

Chapter 34

Ban'er has no heart, and she does what the master says. She nodded repeatedly, and suddenly opened the bag, and put the thick red cloth bag on the table: "Oh. This time I came out of the mansion, and the master asked me to bring it to the lady. something."

"This is." Looking at the cloth bags opened layer by layer, a green light inside silently flashed across her eyebrows.

"The master said that the lady left you nothing before she got married, so you must accept this."

"What is this, miss?" Fan'er asked with her round eyes wide open.

"It's my mother's relic." Su Min's expression became solemn all of a sudden, her fingertips lightly touched this piece of jade, and a trace of cool temperature slowly climbed onto her skin.

She has seen this jade before, with a dark green background and milky white patterns on it. Although it looks very elegant, it doesn't have much amazing workmanship and texture.

But this jade pendant has always been with my father for more than ten years, so why should I bring it to her now?For some reason, she always had a strange feeling in her heart.

"Fan'er, this is the most priceless and precious gift you brought me from the Su family." Holding the jade tightly in the palm of her hand, she tried to understand her father's intentions, perhaps to imitate her mother's forbearance.

She lowered her eyes and smiled, and from then on, she had one more belief in living.

"Fan'er, from now on, you must remember my words." With a turn of his eyes, Su Min's tone was much gentler, but full of the majesty of a master.

Fan'er blinked: "What are you talking about?"

"Su Yu is in the palace." Su Min's voice was extremely cold.

"Miss? She didn't even go back to Su's house when the master was seriously ill. How could she be in the capital?" Hearing this, Fan'er couldn't help being extremely astonished.

"Don't ask so many questions." Su Min slightly covered her mouth and nose, and frowned slightly: "Now you are in the mansion, you have to deal with other servant girls, and you are more cautious in every word and action than in Su's house. If you should say it, don't speak too fast, you know?"

"Understood, Miss." The voice became muffled, and Fan'er nodded like a pounding garlic.

"Also, what is my current identity and what is my name? You can't be careless, and you can't call Su Yu the eldest lady. You are outspoken and easy to make mistakes. You need to use your brain before speaking." Only then did Su Yu withdraw her hand. Min taught seriously.

"Fan'er will remember what Miss explained."

"Especially in front of the prince, you can't talk too much. He is not a compassionate Bodhisattva." Su Min looked away, and when he thought of him, his eyes gradually darkened involuntarily.

Why did he bring Fan'er to the palace?

Gift?Ridiculous.

Of course there is an ulterior purpose.

He must want to start from the innocent Fan'er and dig out some secrets.

"Damn man." Thinking of the mottled smile in Nangong Zheng's eyes last night, Su Min couldn't help saying bitterly.

Today is the winter solstice of the lunar calendar, which is supposed to be the time for family reunion, but Su Min just thinks it's funny, there are only three people at the dinner party.

The other two are not family members.

He, Nangong Zheng, is gloomy and vicious.

She, Su Yu, is domineering and aggressive.

Silently glanced at Su Yu's face, she was staring at Nangong Zheng, as if the delicious food on the table could not arouse her interest.

With a calm expression, as if he couldn't see the ulterior relationship between the two, Su Min took the dishes between his hands, chewed and swallowed them calmly.

At the moment when the dinner was removed, Mother Qiao reminded me in a low voice. "My lord, tonight is the winter solstice, there is a lantern festival outside, it's very lively, why don't the princess go out for a walk?"

"Mother Qiao, no need." Perhaps Mother Qiao wanted to give herself a chance. After all, she was so sophisticated that it was not difficult for her to see Su Yu's coming into the house, but Su Min still refused to be alone with Nangong Zheng.

Su Yu's eyes changed, not wanting to lose this great opportunity, he held Su Min's right arm intimately, and put a smile on his face. "Sister Wangfei, I heard that the Lantern Festival in the capital is very interesting. You don't want to go, but I'm itching to hear it."

"it is good."

Nangong Zheng looked at Su Min coldly, without any movement in his eyes, and suddenly dropped a word.

Su Min was startled slightly, he used his own cover to satisfy the idea of ​​going out with Su Yu, but he did it perfectly.

What a hypocritical prince!

"Then let me do my best as a landlord and show the concubine and guests the night view of the capital." He stood up, and his figure in a purple-blue robe became more and more dazzling under the candlelight.

Su Yu smiled and glanced at Su Min, her phoenix eyes were full of pride, showing off too much.

Su Min turned her eyes away, her tranquil face was still beautiful and elegant.

"It's a coincidence that I came here, Zheng, why do you want to go out?" Before walking out of the main entrance, a familiar voice rushed into Su Min's ear with laughter.

Su Min raised her eyes suddenly, and it really was Zhou Yan. His high-spirited, elegant and handsome figure warmed her heart.

His gaze swept across Nangong Zheng, and then stopped on her for a while, the smile on his face deepened. "The princess is also out of the palace?"

Su Yu looked at this strange but equally outstanding man slightly, and couldn't help but secretly wondered about his identity. After all, he was definitely not an ordinary person who could get in touch with Nangong Zheng.

His unconscious ignorance made her feel a little uneasy, as if in his eyes, apart from Nangong Zheng and Su Min, she was nothing but air.

"Let's go together, Zhou Yan." Nangong Zheng smiled, but his tone was a little alienated.

Although the faint joy on Su Min's face was concealed, it still fell into Nangong Zheng's eyes.

From the moment I stepped out of the front door, a strange feeling surged from my heart, as if it was about to reach my throat, that long-lost freedom penetrated into my body from every breath of cold air.

The capital city is indeed much bigger than Los Angeles city, and when she walked into the downtown area, she looked at the colorful lanterns hanging all over the shops, like rainbows in the sky, her eyes instantly became alive.

Su Yu seemed to be whispering to Nan Gongzheng at the side, and she had no time to care about what the two of them were talking about. In the crowd, no one knew who she was, and she didn't need to wear a mask to live. look at the scenery.

Oh, what a wonderful freedom and self.

"If you are free, you should go out of the house more..."

Zhou Yan lost his mind slightly. The woman in front of her was dressed in a bright yellow robe with a sable fur around her neck. Her footsteps suddenly stopped at the door of a shop. She raised her head and carefully read the hanging lantern riddles.

She was so fascinated, as if she was lost in thought, that she forgot to respond to him, a little light shone on her fair neck.On the hibiscus-like face, there was a rare relaxation and peace in an instant, and a faint smile covered her pupils.

Her beauty was like a woman walking out of a painting, so he couldn't help but follow her gaze and look at the lantern together.

But he wasn't so serious, his eyes gradually drifted away and turned to her.

She just looked at the scenery in front of her quietly, her eyes overflowed, better than strings of pearls, as if the light of the whole capital was less than the flash of her eyes.

Is such a woman enough to make all men wholeheartedly support her?He couldn't help asking himself in a low voice, but the people around him were getting bigger and bigger, like a wave, and in the blink of an eye, she was no longer beside him.

He suddenly turned his face, and only realized when he lost her that he didn't even know her name.And in the marketplace, he couldn't reveal her identity, so he had to squeeze forward desperately, looking for her.

The crowd squeezed away the slender Su Min in an instant. She looked around in panic, but she couldn't see them in the crowd.

She couldn't help being a little dazed, she didn't want to move her feet, but her body continued to move forward with the flow of people.

She narrowed her black eyes slightly, looked at the hustle and bustle and light ahead, and secretly asked herself, if the crowd pushed her to the final direction, without Nangong Zheng and without Su Yu, her heart would become more relaxed.

"Finally I see you." A sudden force came from her hand, with a piece of warmth, brushing over her catkin.

She turned sideways slowly, looked at the handsome man in front of her, and stared at him intently. He was holding her hand so tightly, and his voice was full of joy and peace of mind.

Zhou Yan smiled, and stood aside from her to prevent others from sweeping her away.She was too thin and slender, the moment he turned his head and couldn't see her, he suddenly found his heart flustered.

Suddenly realizing that his hand was still holding that tender wrist, Zhou Yan concealed all his emotions, his eyes flashed, and he let go of his hand, but he was still gentle and soothing. "Be careful, don't get lost."

Su Min silently looked at her side. Different strangers walked back and forth, but Zhou Yan never left her side.

"Young master, buy a lantern for the young lady."

The owner of the small shop where they were standing looked at the man and woman in front of him and encouraged them with a smile on his face, breaking the short silence and embarrassment between them.

"Do you like it?" Zhou Yanqing smiled a little more on his handsome face, and asked her seriously, not eager to explain their relationship to strangers.

Su Min wanted to refuse. It is not appropriate for passers-by to treat them as lovers. How can she ask for his gift?

"Does the lady like this peony lantern? It's only thirty cents a piece."

"Just take this one." He took the lantern from the boss, handed it to Su Min, raised his eyes, saw that Su Min was hesitant, and laughed loudly.

"It's a worthless thing, if you really feel embarrassed, just throw it away."

Hearing this, Su Min couldn't help but smile at him, he never put any burden on himself.

The feeling of being with him is also free and smooth, as if that figure will never be shaken, and that shoulder is worthy of tears.

In the next moment, she gently took over the lantern. The golden peonies are beautiful, and the candlelight is burning inside. It seems that just one more glance can absorb some warmth and dispel the coldness of winter night.

"Let's go for a walk by the river, maybe we will meet Zheng by chance." Looking at the overcrowded scene around him, he couldn't help frowning slightly.
