Chapter 26 Your Highness
Two energetic young people first met under the moonlight outside the forest. One smiled like the spring breeze and the other looked down at the starry sea. For the Dajin Dynasty, which is now suffering from internal and external troubles, this is a very important thing, and it is so important that it can be recorded in history by later generations.
Unfortunately, there were only five people who were lucky enough to witness this scene with their own eyes.
And no one would have thought that one of the boys in this day would hide his true identity.
The name Aaron is very ordinary, especially in this handsome boy. Even if he is not facing Xia Sheng now, it is easy to be seen as a fake name made up on the spot.
But the most surprising thing is that even so, the boy's eyes also had an extremely sincere smile and was open and honest.
It seems that I want to tell Xia Sheng that this deception is not a wish, but has some unspeakable difficulties. Please don’t blame me.
There was no joy or anger on Xia Sheng's face, but he replied in great calmly: "Good luck."
At the same time, a storm of fire suddenly jumped out of the carriage and hugged Ah Long's arm, looking extremely intimate.
"Brother Along, do you still remember me? I am Shui'er, the personal maid next to the lady!"
Aaron was slightly stunned and said in suspicion: "Shui'er?"
Shui'er nodded with a smile: "It seems that Brother Along still remembers me!" As he said that, Shui'er turned around and shouted, "Miss, Miss! Look who is coming!"
After the words came, Ye Xiao'e also walked off the carriage, with a hint of panic in her eyes. For a moment, she didn't know how to deal with it.
But Aaron reacted first and said with a smile: "Xiao E? Why did you come here?"
Shui'er answered first, "Miss is so tired at home, so she took us to Baima Town to relax. Today, I was originally going out to visit the lake, but Dali got lost. I'm here after turning around. Brother Aaron, why are you here too?"
Hang Dali immediately widened his eyes, his face full of innocentness, thinking to himself what's up to me?
Along did not mean to hide it, but said truthfully: "My subordinates heard that there were king-level spirit beasts appearing in this Forget-Returning Forest, so I followed and tried my luck."
"King-level spirit beast?" Shui'er covered her mouth with one hand, her eyes full of incredible.
Along smiled and said, "I don't know if it's true. Anyway, I've been idle recently, so I might as well go out and leave."
Upon hearing this, Xia Sheng's heart trembled. Could it be that the tree species he planted ten thousand years ago had grown into a king-level spiritual tree?
Thinking of this, Xia Sheng couldn't help but smile and said, "It just so happens that we are about to go in and have a look, so why not walk with us."
Who would have thought that as soon as Xia Sheng said this, Along and Shui'er's faces froze slightly.
But Aaron quickly reacted and said repeatedly: "That's the best. Xiao'e and Miss Shui'er have not seen each other for many days. It's my honor to be with you tonight."
At the same time, someone who had been standing behind Aaron also stood up and echoed: "Yes, yes, it's more lively."
Xia Sheng quietly looked at the middle-aged man in his thirties, feeling a little surprised.
The man had a beard on his face, was dressed in fur clothes, a thick gold necklace around his neck, and his ten fingers were covered with gold rings inlaid with various gems.
It looks like a living nouveau riche.
It is said that those who are close to vermilion are red, while those who are close to ink are black. In other words, if you want to see a person's character and temper clearly, the best way is to see his friends around him and his circle.
But, the temperament of this middle-aged man and Aaron are completely different, just like a difference.
If it weren't for seeing it with your own eyes, it would be hard to believe that these two people would appear in the same occasion.
But what Xia Sheng cares most was not this golden nouveau riche, but the woman who had been standing behind Aaron and hiding all her face in the night.
Xia Sheng couldn't see the other person's appearance clearly, but at least he could see that the woman was wearing a neat black suit and a shallow veil on her head. If Xia Sheng had not had the extremely sharp observation ability, it would have been difficult to find out the existence of this person.
She kept standing behind Aaron with her eyebrows down and her head down. Her breath was converging very secretly, like a shadow of Aaron, not a living person.
When Xia Sheng was observing the two subordinates around Aaron, Shui'er also turned around and looked at her lady.
It seems to be asking for the other party's opinions.
"Miss, what do you think?"
Ye Xiao'e's face was hesitant and said to Along, "I'm afraid I'm going to discuss this matter with Asheng... with Mr. Xia."
As he said that, Ye Xiaoe came to Xia Sheng and gently pulled the corner of his clothes.
A faint smile flashed across Xia Sheng's mouth, and he thought to himself: "It seems really interesting."
But he said, "Ah, yes, I'm a little presumptuous. Please wait for a moment."
After saying that, Xia Sheng and Ye Xiao'e walked slowly to the side, not knowing what they were saying in a whisper.
As the two men gradually drifted away, Aaron couldn't help but chuckled, "Why, the eldest daughter of the Ye family is not harming those young men in Luoyang, why are you interested in playing the game of pretending to be a maid?"
Shui'er also smiled slightly: "I'm also very curious. With such a noble status as Your Highness, he only brought two people around him, so he dared to leave Luoyang City and come to this remote place. Aren't you worried that the prince would take the opportunity to attack you?"
Along did not answer Shui'er's words, but said to himself: "That Xia Sheng is not from your Ye family, and he doesn't even know your identity, but he can help you protect him like this. Let me think about it, is it the recent rumor of the engagement in the capital that has been rumored to be true? He is the fiancé that Marshal Ye chose for you?"
After all, he was a little shallow in his Taoism. In just a few words, Shui'er was aroused by A Long and furiously said: "Which is the one who is not eye-catching, you dare to gossip behind this girl! When I go back, I must clean up them well!"
Along laughed: "Miss Ye just needs to give me an order, and I will do it for you."
After saying this, Along's smile gradually faded, and then he said seriously: "What I said before was a joke, but if Miss Ye was really willing to go with me on behalf of the General's Mansion, I will definitely be grateful."
The peers mentioned here are of course not literally, nor do they mean that they forget to return home to the forest when traveling together, but rather that they have an attitude and a position.
Although Shui'er's inner cunning is far less profound than the young man in front of her, she is definitely not stupid, otherwise she would not have politely rejected Xia Sheng's proposal through Ye Xiao'e's mouth.
And she knew very well that at this time, her best way to deal with it is to not say anything.
Facing Shui'er's silence, Along was not angry at it, but said with a smile: "It seems that Miss Ye has not made any decision yet. I am not intending to make things difficult for Miss Ye, but hopes that Miss Ye can pass on my sincerity to Marshal Ye to know."
Shui'er nodded: "It's just a matter of raising one's hands."
Along held his hand and said goodbye: "Since that's the case, then let's take the lead. Return to Luoyang in the future, hoping to have the opportunity to chat and laugh with Miss Ye again."
Shui'er replied with a gift very seriously: "Honor is so great."
