Chapter 326 No need anymore (2)
It was a little girl wearing a brand-new peach-red floral jacket with buns, smiling as she stepped on a puddle of shallow puddles, happily rushing to the side while pattering her feet on the puddles. shouted happily from the half-opened store.

In such a quiet morning that was almost terrifying, the little girl's voice was so clear that it could almost resound through the entire Xingping Street.

Suddenly, a chubby man rushed out from behind the half-open door with a look of fear on his face, rushed to the little girl, pressed her mouth with one hand, and picked her up with the other, without daring to look around, picked her up. The little girl made a gesture and was about to rush into the store.

The door was slammed shut from the inside with a "bang", but a small embroidered shoe fell outside the door.

It was a small embroidered shoe embroidered with gorgeous peach blossoms. It fell out of the overlapping skirts of the fat man when he hurriedly carried the little girl back to the store just now, and it fell on the little girl just now. The embroidered peach blossoms that bloomed on the upper of the shoe were wet in the stagnant water.

The shoes are brand new, and they fell out of the father's arms. Presumably he hid them for his daughter. If it wasn't something important, who would give it up?
Maybe today is an important day for this family, otherwise how can we put new clothes and shoes on the doll?

However, the brand new embroidered shoes fell outside the door, the father must have been in a hurry.

Sure enough, after a while, the hastily closed door was slowly opened from the inside again. First, someone carefully opened a crack, but suddenly a small force opened the door four feet wide, just in time. It is enough for a child to jump out.

The little girl who jumped out from the half-open door was just now, and the fat man who carried her back to the house just now was standing behind the door, his fat body blocked the four-foot-wide space, with a shocked expression on his face Terrified, he was hastily reaching out his hand to grab the naughty little girl back, but the moment he stepped over the threshold, he froze there with his pupils wide open.

The little girl who had jumped out didn't jump directly to the shallow pool of water to pick up the little embroidered shoe, but stopped five or six steps away from the fat man, holding her head up and blinking. With big black eyes.

Because, the little embroidered shoe that was dropped in the stagnant water was held by someone, a tall and tall young man with a black gray cloak on his shoulders and a hood on his head, the little embroidered shoe It was lightly held in the man's wide and rough left hand. The bright red color contrasted sharply with the man's blue and white finger bones.

The little girl blinked her big eyes, looked at the tall man standing in front of her, then looked at the little embroidered shoes in his hand, and said crisply: "Big Brother, those are Taozi's shoes! Show off Tao Zi's shoes!"

The man stood against the light, making it difficult for people to see his face and expression clearly, but his lips were slender and seemed to carry an inexplicable coldness, which made the slightly fat man feel There was a chill on his back, his complexion was gradually turning pale, fine sweat was breaking out from his temples, and his body was trembling slightly.

He still maintained the action of stepping over the threshold and reaching out his hand to grab the little girl, but he didn't dare to move, he just watched the little girl talking to the strange man with a horrified expression.

He is afraid, and it is extremely afraid, because of fear, he dare not move, just because he is afraid that if he moves a little, the innocent little girl in front of him will disappear from his eyes forever .

What he was afraid of was not only the strange man in front of him who couldn't see clearly and seemed to appear out of nowhere, but also the expressionless men in black standing behind him.

The naughty little girl was completely ignorant of the mood of the fat man behind her, instead she stretched out her chubby white and tender hand to the strange man, and said, "Brother, return the shoes to Tao Zi?"

"The little baby's name is Taozi?" The strange man didn't put the little embroidered shoes in the little girl's hands, but asked her in a calm tone.

The man's tone was very light, with a sense of chill and gentleness, like frosty smiles in early spring, obviously cold, but with the warmth of his lips.

The little girl thought the voice sounded good, she nodded vigorously with a smile, and said happily, "Yeah! Daddy and mother both called Tao Zi by that, and mother said that today is Tao Zi's birthday, so she sewed new clothes for Tao Zi." Shoes, let Daddy put Taozi on!"

When Xiao Taozi said this, she laughed so that her two fair and tender cheeks turned red, she was really cute and painful.

"So it's Xiao Taozi's birthday today." The strange man said softly again, this time with a slight smile.

Little Taozi nodded vigorously again, and asked again: "Then big brother, can you return the shoes to Taozi?"

"Okay." The man gently put the little embroidered shoes in Xiao Taozi's small hands, and Xiao Taozi immediately jumped back to the fat man with the embroidered shoes in her arms, and lifted the embroidered shoes high towards him, happily Said, "Daddy, Daddy, help Taozi put on her shoes!"

A drop of cold sweat trickled down the fat man's temples. He didn't dare to pick up the embroidered shoes in Xiao Taozi's hand, but just looked nervously and fearfully at the strange man in front of him.

Only the man said calmly: "The rain has stopped, the store can open the shop."

After the man finished speaking, he took another look at the innocent little Taozi who was smiling innocently, turned around and left.

The fat man was startled, as if he couldn't believe that the man who appeared suddenly just left.

Xiao Taozi was still holding the embroidered shoes high towards him, but the fat man stared blankly at the back of the strange man walking away.

The man's words seemed to have a calming power, so that the fat man didn't rush into the store behind him as if fleeing for his life with Xiao Taozi in his arms, but took the little embroidered shoes she held high in her hand, squatted down, Put it on for her.

Putting on the new embroidered shoes, Xiao Taozi clapped her hands happily and jumped up and down the street. The fat man did not drag her back, but took another look at the figure of the strange man who had already walked away in the direction of Wangcheng, and turned towards the house. Shouted: "Peach lady, come out and open a shop!"

After the rain, it was sunny.

Wangcheng, Chongming Palace, square in front of the palace.

After two days and two nights of torrential rain, the smell of blood still lingers on Chongming Hall and the square in front of the hall. It seems that it can't be completely washed away, just like some people's reluctance and unwillingness to die.

Even if you can't see the blood with resentment, you can still smell it, and the rain can't wash it away, it can only be washed away by time.

Si Yujiang, who has always been wearing a sea-blue wide-sleeved gown, is now wearing armor. Zheng Weiran is standing on the high stone steps in front of the Chongming Hall, looking down at the prisoner kneeling in front of the hall with cold eyes. Dozens of officials and officials in the square.

Eunuch Deng stood by his left hand, holding a bright yellow imperial decree in his hand, and his right hand held his sharp sword.
