The daughter-in-law is so charming, she crazily criticizes the king regent for taking her life

Chapter 116 Firefly

Fireflies, there is only the night that devours people.

Before he was eight years old, he had been living in that remote palace.

I remember one day, when he was playing in the palace, he kicked a round object from outside the palace, and it rolled to his feet.

He had never seen this thing before, and there were conversations outside the hall.

"It's all your fault. Where did you go? Find it quickly."

"Your Highness, forgive me, I will look for you right now."
He heard the voice gradually approaching the door, and was about to pick it up and hand it back to the two people outside.

"Your Highness, won't you fall in?"

"Your Highness, it's better not to pick it up, but that little lunatic lives here."

After being reminded by the palace attendant, the boy called His Highness said, "Oh, you mean that bastard? My own mother couldn't tolerate him. He was thrown into the wolf's den by the emperor and he came back alive. Hmph, life is hard!" Very much."

That's right, his mother couldn't tolerate him, so she sent him to this remote palace and threw him to this older maid.

Cold Moon Hall, ever since the young man lived here, a single candle has never been lit at night.

The court ladies and eunuchs deducted his food and clothing, and the Hanyue Palace was always pitch-black, and he couldn't see his fingers.

The only time, a firefly flew in from nowhere, and the palace at night became very beautiful with it. He chased the firefly and ran around the courtyard. Before he could be happy, the light was crushed to death underfoot.

That woman didn't allow him to be happy...

When Gu Qing recalled this, Shen Ange had already come back from the window, and seemed to be looking at something.

"Come on, I'm already asleep at this hour, there is still a place in the mansion that you have never been to."

Looking at the girl's curved eyebrows, she pulled his wrist like a treasure and walked out of the room.

Shen Ange calculated that there is a flower garden beside the waterside pool, and now that it is summer, there should be some fireflies.

"It is rumored that if you catch a hundred fireflies, your wish will come true."

A soft voice came from the front, and the small hand was not enough to completely grasp his wrist, but only half of his sleeve.

"Let's keep our voice down so that no one will notice, and there will be no fireflies to catch."

Gu Qing let her drag her around, staring blankly at the grasped wrist, something was flowing in her eyes.

She obviously has no interest in this kind of boring play, and it's just a way to lie to the girls in her boudoir, but she still doesn't stop her.

He was brought to the garden next to the waterside pavilion, his wrist was loosened, and Gu Qing frowned slightly.

The girl looked around, muttering, why not?
The waterside pool becomes a canvas in the cold white moonlight, on which are beautiful and noble girls and handsome "guards".The young guard folded his arms around his chest, staring at her walking without blinking, like a pair of lovers.

The girl was bent over, her eyes were shining with a faint moonlight, and even the hem of her skirt was shining with silver light.

Originally thinking that it was destined not to find fireflies tonight, Shen Ange walked back with her head lowered like a wilted eggplant, reaching out to Gu Qing for a hug too naturally.

Gu Qing also greeted her with open arms, feeling nothing wrong, and patted her on the back to comfort her, but she couldn't let go of the corner of her mouth.

Not long after, I don't know if I heard her call, and more and more green lights suddenly appeared in the garden.

He patted the person in his arms, "Is this what Miss is looking for?"

Shen Ange followed his movements and turned around, her eyes brightened, and she jumped out of his arms.

It didn't take long before she caught one in her hand, and she happily covered it with both hands like a box, turned around and ran to Gu Qing, raising her hand in front of his eyes.

"Lower."

The girl motioned him to lean down, and he lowered his head obediently as if obsessed with ghosts. Shen Ange opened a gap, and green light spots swam between her palms.

"Look, I caught it, here it is."

The firefly in the girl's hand seemed to be quite human, but when Shen Ange opened his palm, it remained obediently still.

"You wait, I'm going to catch you, catch a hundred."

After thinking about it, she turned back and pulled Gu Qing into this action together.

Shen Ange's running face was flushed, revealing a bit of brilliance.

"Hurry up, what are you doing in a daze?"

When the girl catches one, she gives him one, just like this, she catches and releases a lot, until the last one, Shen Ange ran to the edge of the pool and almost fell into it, scaring her to close the mouth. squinted.

As expected, she didn't feel the coldness, but she fell into a firm embrace. She turned around and Gu Qing hugged him horizontally, and walked towards the waterside pavilion, the corners of her mouth curved very nicely.

"Caught."

The last firefly among Shen An's singers flew away, and he didn't bother to catch it back, and said, "You feel better?"

It turned out that this was her purpose.

The wind at night was soft and delicate, the lanterns under the eaves were shaking slightly, and there was warmth on Gu Qing's face.

Gu Qing put her on the chair steadily, squatted halfway in front of her, lowered her head and carefully cleaned the grass wrapped around the skirt and the greasy embroidered shoes for her.

Then I looked at the little green lights around me, and said leisurely: "If Miss can make the people in the way disappear, maybe my mood will be better."

Shen Ange didn't understand why, and asked, "Who is in your way?"

Who is so desperate?
Gu Qing didn't speak, she looked at the person who came back from night patrol in the corridor, her eyes were dark and cold, and she pursed her lips and smiled.

"Miss doesn't allow me to kill people, and it's not just once or twice, why don't you think about it yourself?"

Who did she protect?Why don't you have any impression.

The firefly was caught for nothing tonight: Who messed with Gu Qing today?

He is extremely difficult not to talk, and he always speaks with a gun and a stick.

"Fu Jiu, I promised that if I caught a hundred of them, I would be able to fulfill my wish, but I didn't catch the last one just now."

If caught, she might be able to ask Gu Qing to promise her something.

"It's getting dark, Miss, it's time to go to bed."

Gu Qing didn't talk to her, but got up and walked to the bedroom with her in her arms.

Is he planning to send her back to her room directly?

"Fu Jiu, let me down, I can go by myself, I don't need you to send me."

"How can I let go of the last one I finally caught? It's time to find a golden cage to put it in."

What is wrong with him?What nonsense are you talking about.

Until he put Shen Ange firmly on the couch and left a sentence.

"Miss, rest early."

"Eh!"

The boy didn't listen to her, turned around and closed the door.

……

Under the corridor, the figure in the dark came out after seeing the two people going away.

Shen Bai had thoughts in his heart, and worry was written in his eyes.

Although the information he got from the guards a few days ago was only a few words, he always felt that there was something important.

This young man is a regular calamity by the side of his most beloved sister.
