The Rebirth of the First Daughter: The Crown Prince

Chapter 434 Late Return (5)

The deeper the dew was, the cold air invaded the body, and there was a shivering chill.

Chunhong rubbed her hands together, and glanced at Mo Xi who was very close to her.

Mo Xi still maintained her original posture, her eyes were fixed in the distance.Looking back, Chunhong saw two doorkeepers dozing off in front of the gate of Feng's mansion. She raised her head and looked at the sky. A little light can be seen vaguely.

The night wind blew, and the lantern in his hand shook, and the light and shadow flickered, almost extinguishing the lantern.

After hesitating for a while, Chunhong stepped forward and said, "Girl, it's late at night, shouldn't it be time to go back?"

Mo Xi glanced at Chunhong, but did not speak, but the firmness in her eyes was so obvious.

For some reason, after nightfall today, my heart felt restless, as if something was about to happen, and as the night got darker, this sense of unease became stronger.Especially, at such a time, he didn't come back.

Mo Xi squeezed her hands, and before she realized it, the palms of her hands were already sweating, but only she knew about this.

Seeing that Mo Xi didn't speak, Chun Hong stopped talking, just stood quietly behind Mo Xi, a gust of wind passed, Chun Hong shuddered, looked up, saw the woman standing in front of her, and sighed secretly why didn't she Give the girl an extra dress.

Mo Xi raised her head and looked ahead. Layers of fog blocked her sight, and she couldn't see anyone in the distance on the street. There was a little wind in her ears, and occasionally she could hear the sound of water stains falling on the trees.

It was late at night, and the streets were extremely quiet, with no one walking around.

After a long time, a look of disappointment flashed in Mo Xi's eyes, and there was an inexplicable feeling in her heart.Her eyelashes fluttered slightly, and she could feel that the slender eyelashes were already wet with mist.

Mo Xi turned around in disappointment, and said in a low voice, "Let's go."

Looking forward to the girl going back to sleep peacefully, but now seeing the loneliness on the girl's face, Chunhong thinks it's better for the girl to stand here.Why did the girl show such a sad expression?Chunhong can naturally guess a thing or two, now that it is past Haishi, and my uncle still hasn't returned, what does this mean?After all, the girl has only been in the house for half a year, and the uncle is like this. In the future, the girl's life——

Chunhong lowered her head and sighed, her eyes fell on the lantern she was holding in her hand, the candle was flickering, like the hearts of the people, erratic.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew past her ears. When Chunhong raised her head, she couldn't see that beautiful figure. When she turned around, she saw Mo Xi walking towards the thick fog.

"Girl—" Chunhong wanted to say, the night is dark and foggy, girl be careful, don't be in any danger.However, she didn't say the latter words.

In the dark night, the sound of footsteps became clearer and clearer from far to near. Chunhong looked at Mo Xi's eager figure, and her profile under the moonlight seemed to soften a little.Chunhong was afraid that something would happen to Mo Xi, so she hurriedly chased after her. After a while, the person who heard the footsteps appeared in front of the two of them. It wasn't Feng Mingxi and Ming Lu, but who else?
"came back."

When Chunhong heard Mo Xi say, she turned her face to the side and took a look at Mo Xi's expression, only to see that her tense face had softened now.The worry in his eyes was gone, and he looked like he knew that the person who heard the footsteps was Feng Mingxi.

Chun Hong was a little shocked.

The moment Ming Lu saw Mo Xi again, he was also taken aback for a moment, but in an instant, he felt a kind of warmth again.All of a sudden, he was a little lucky that Feng Mingxi married the woman in front of him, not the one in the palace.

Thinking of what happened tonight, Ming Lu frowned. He turned his head and glanced at his master, who was dressed in red, which was extremely eye-catching.

Along the way, there was always a faint smell of blood wafting out, but the always cautious master didn't notice it. This seemed to prove that the master knew that there was someone waiting for him in Fengfu, so he couldn't wait, so he ignored it. A lot of things that should have been noticed?
Perhaps out of selfishness, Ming Lu did not remind Feng Mingxi.

Ming Lu felt that the past few years had not been easy for the master, and it might be a good thing if there was someone who could love and miss the master.Having followed his master all year round, how could Ming Lu not know that his seemingly invulnerable, iron-skinned and brawny master would actually be injured and weak sometimes.

And the person who knew his unbearable times should not be the one in the palace, but the person in front of him.

The moment Feng Mingxi saw Mo Xi, he was stunned for a moment, but after a while, he came back to his senses, and naturally held Mo Xi's hand, but she avoided her without a trace, but he refused to let go , after all, still grabbed those hands, slender and boneless, but cold to the bone.

How long has she been waiting?
There was no smile on Feng Mingxi's face, and his eyes widened looking at Mo Xi, with shock in his heart. After a while, there was a warm current flowing slowly in his heart, and soon he felt an unspeakable distress.

He wrapped her little hand with his big palm, but his body was always cool, so how could he give her much warmth?Even so, his hands were still warmer than hers.

"You can't stand the cold, how can you wait for so long?" She is afraid of the cold, and she can't stand the cold. When it's cold, her limbs will always ache, and he knows it.It is precisely because I know it that I feel even more distressed, and even a little annoyed.

Annoyed that she didn't cherish her body, annoyed why she didn't come back early.

"It's okay, I didn't stand for long." Mo Xi smiled lightly, feeling the temperature from her hand, and stopped pulling her hand back. She pulled it back because she was afraid that he would be worried, but now that he knew , there is nothing to hide.

Knowing that he was lying, he was full of helplessness, stretched out his hand, and tapped her little nose: "Duplicity." Unexpectedly, this movement moved his shoulder, and he suddenly remembered that his shoulder had been cut by a sword. .In an instant, his body became a little stiff, for fear that the sensitive woman in front of him would notice something, adding to his worries.

But Mo Xi still sensed something was wrong, not because she noticed Feng Ming's expression was wrong, but because she smelled the faint smell of blood wafting in the air.

Mo Xi sniffled, frowned and asked, "What's the smell?" The red clothes had become the best protection, and it was night, so Mo Xi didn't notice that the original red clothes had been stained. blood.

Ming Lu looked at the sky and the ground, avoiding Feng Mingxi's gaze, for fear that if one of them met, Feng Mingxi would put the blame on him again.

This matter had nothing to do with him at all, but the concubine Shi Zi was smart and realized that something was wrong, even if he was to be punished, it would be nothing more than negligence in duty.

However, Ming Lu has forgotten the character of his master, how can Feng Mingxi be a reasonable master?
"It's nothing, maybe the wind brought some peculiar smell." Feng Mingxi tried to cover it up.He thought, his little wife is indeed a dog, not only her teeth are sharp, but her nose is also so sensitive.

"No." Mo Xi turned her head and asked Xiang Chunhong: "Chunhong, have you ever smelled anything?"

"Girl, this servant smells like blood."

The next moment, Mo Xisen's cold eyes fell on Feng Mingxi...
