Allure of a Country Maiden
Chapter 1013
The recent days have been comfortable and peaceful, and Xiaoer is not used to it. She always feels a sense of depression before a storm.
It had been so many days since the last mad dog incident, and no further actions had been seen by the people behind the scenes. Xiaoer felt that instead of waiting for the unknown danger to arrive, it would be better to take the initiative to expose it and give the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of it.
Rather than waiting like this, she prefers to take the initiative!
In the evening, the two of them sat together for dinner. Xiaoer said to Shangguan Xuanyi, "Brother Shangguan, I'm going to watch the dragon boat race tomorrow."
"Okay, I'll watch it with you tomorrow." Shangguan Xuanyi nodded, and put a chopstick of vegetables into Xiaoer's bowl.
"I want to go by myself." Xiaoer stated her purpose.
Shangguan Xuanyi naturally disagreed after hearing this: "No! I will go with you."
"But I think if you were around, that person might not take action!" That person was not stupid. He knew that the chance of winning was slim, so why did he still alert the enemy?
"I will go with you, and then I will leave first when I find an opportunity and watch from the dark." During the dragon boat race, both sides of the Huaijiang River will be crowded with people. The more people there are, the more likely accidents will happen. How could Shangguan Xuanyi let Xiaoer take the risk on her own.
Xiaoer thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, Shangguan Xuanyi took Xiaoer to watch the dragon boat race, along with Ri Geer, Yuner, Jing Hao, Liu Zhiwen and Liu Zhiwu.
The only people Xiaoer is familiar with in this year's dragon boat race are Zhao Youhe, Shangguan Xuanhao and Shangguan Xuanjun who participated in the race. The others are people they know but have not interacted with much.
This time neither the Queen Mother nor the Emperor and Queen came out to watch the game.
As always, today both sides of the Huaijiang River are densely packed with black heads.
The two stood in the middle of the bridge. Shangguan Xuanyi stood half a step behind Xiaoer, holding an umbrella for her. Xiaoer leaned on the guardrail and watched the dragon boats on the river glide towards the finish line as the contestants waved their arms vigorously.
People on both sides of the Taiwan Strait were shouting loudly, and cheers came and went.
"Watching other people's games is not as exciting as watching the games yourself!" Xiaoer couldn't help but sigh. Perhaps he had participated in it personally and knew the fun involved, but just watching it on the bridge like this, Xiaoer always felt that it was a little less passionate.
But it seemed that no one else felt the same way as she did, and everyone watched with great interest.
"Yes!" Shangguan Wanru stood next to Xiaoer. After hearing this, she remembered the time when several of them participated in the dragon boat race. The days at that time were really beautiful, carefree and youthful!
"The most beautiful dragon boat race I have ever seen was the year my sister participated!" Xi'er sighed, imitating Xiao'er's tone.
"You were still young at that time, do you still remember?" Ri Geer asked funnyly when he saw Xier talking like a little adult.
"Of course, my memory is very good. I remember my sister and the others took it." In order to prove her good memory, Xi'er told the story of the game at that time.
So everyone started thinking about the topic of the year one by one.
"Actually, women can also participate in the dragon boat race next year. Women will compete with women, and men will compete with men. This will definitely be much more exciting!" Fu Ranhui suggested.
"This is a good idea, maybe we can organize it." Xiaoer agreed.
Soon the game was over, and Shangguan Xuanjun's team won first place.
Next it was the dragon boat race organized by Yums.
People on both sides of the Taiwan Strait cheered for people they knew.
The sun was getting bigger and bigger. Xiaoer took a look at the people on the bridge. There were many guards. How could people attack her?
She didn't plan to watch anymore, and then said to Yun'er and the others: "The sun is too big, I'm going back first, you can continue watching!"
Everyone else wanted to continue watching, so they nodded.
Shangguan Wanru was not in the mood to watch. When she saw Xiao'er was leaving, she said, "I'm leaving too. Zhuan'er is still in the house. I'm worried that he will cry if he leaves me for too long."
Xiaoer nodded, so the three of them walked off the bridge. The guards opened a path and they walked towards the place where the carriage was parked.
Beside the carriage, Zhao Yong came to their side and said to Shangguan Xuanyi: "Master, the emperor has summoned you to the palace for something."
After hearing this, Shangguan Xuanyi said to Xiaoer: "Girl, do you want to enter the palace with me?"
"No, I still have something to do. I'll go to the palace in the afternoon." Xiaoer shook her head.
"Okay, then try to be as early as possible. You will have dinner with your father, the emperor and the queen in the palace tonight." Shangguan Xuanyi told her a few words to be more careful before riding away.
After Shangguan Wanru saw Shangguan Xuanyi leaving, she said, "Xiao'er, I'll share a carriage with you, just so we can talk."
Xiaoer came out with a mission. If Shangguan Wanru was by her side and something unexpected happened and she was hurt, Xiaoer would naturally not agree.
But he also had to see if Shangguan Wanru had anything to ask of him: "Is there anything you want to say to me, Princess?"
Xiaoer's words made Shangguan Wanru's heart beat faster: Why did Xiaoer ask that? Does she already know? No, this is impossible. Without that booklet, no one would be able to understand the sound of the flute, and that person would not be able to let Xiaoer know. Xiaoer should be concerned about herself and worried about what she needs when she asks this question. She helps.
Shangguan Wanru breathed a sigh of relief when she thought of this, but she didn't agree to the man's use of Xiaoer's blood. How could she feel guilty?
Shangguan Wanru calmed down and shook her head: "No, I just feel that riding in a carriage by myself is a bit boring. I can still talk with you when I go back to the city."
After hearing this, Xiaoer said: "But I still have to go to my fourth aunt's shop to discuss business matters with her. If I don't go back home, it won't go well for both of us."
Shangguan Wanru knew that Xiaoer's fourth uncle had a restaurant on the bank of the Huaijiang River. They had eaten there before, but Shangguan Wanru wanted to take the opportunity to inquire about Xiaoer's fine dining, so she said: "I want to Why don't I go with you to see Aunt Shen? I used to have a meal with her, and I haven't seen her in several years."
Xiaoer was slightly surprised after hearing this, and then she became depressed. What she just said was just an excuse! Her real purpose was to be alone so that she could lure the snake out of its hole. It would be inconvenient for Shangguan Wanru to be by her side.
So Xiaoer said again: "Isn't the princess worried that Zhuan'er will cry and rushes back to the mansion? The child is still young and crying for a long time is not good for the body. In two days, you take Zhuan'er with you and I will take you to see me. Fourth aunt!"
"It's okay. If you cry occasionally, didn't you say you could practice your lung capacity?"
"." How could Xiaoer feel like shooting herself in the foot!
