Chapter 122 The First Conflict
When she met his black eyes, Xu Anan felt a little scared. She stepped back and the chair made a "squeak".
"What are you doing when you look at me like this?"
"nothing."
Cheng Huai also withdrew his gaze. When he looked at the door, he passed by Hou's Shelley at the door. This maid was much quieter than the previous one.
He is not blind and cannot see Lian Qiao's thoughts. It is because he has seen too much that he is even more lazy to pay attention to it.
After the two had dinner, Cheng Huai was thinking about what to do to make Xu Anan attract the hatred between Empress Dowager Cen and the concubines in the palace, so that he could protect her and then prostitute her.
The two of them had different thoughts, and Xu Anan was thinking about the scene he met in the haunted house the day before yesterday, especially the founding emperor named Cheng Neng.
Is there another reason for what happened a hundred years ago? The blood stains in the mud are inconsistent with the explanations in history.
"emperor."
"Hmm?" He looked sideways: "What's the matter?"
"Will you go out for a walk after dinner? While it's still early."
Cheng Huai also looked outside where it was still bright, thought about it and nodded: "Yes."
This was the first time they were walking seriously, with Fuling and Eunuch Yu following behind.
Fuling was a little relieved. Her grandmother finally got enlightened and knew she had taken the initiative. Next, she would enjoy the flowers and scenery. When the atmosphere was right, she should go back to the palace to rest.
Fuling thought very well until she saw this place opposite to the garden and then arrived at her destination, she was a little messy.
She looked speechlessly at the luxurious attic like a pagoda in front of her, with three large gold-plated characters on it saying: Book Pavilion.
Xu Anan said "ah", and she blinked and looked at Cheng Huai: "I've been here unknowingly, why don't we go in and read a book?"
Cheng Huai Ye: “…”
Poria: "..."
Is she allergic to romance? What books should she read at this time? Shouldn’t she read flowers in this situation?
Fuling kept winking at Xu Anan, but she chose to ignore it and looked at Cheng Huai with great sincerity: "Master, what do you think?"
She brought him here on purpose and asked him for his opinion?
"what you up to?"
Xu Anan coughed lightly: "Are you not curious about the deeds of the founding emperor? Moreover, the matter in the north of the city is obviously different from that in history."
She wanted to enter the library, and even the idle people could not get close to her, only Cheng Huaiye's handwriting and token, and there were many confidential incidents.
Xu Anan was afraid that Cheng Huai would not agree, so he might as well let him come to scan his face in person. This would be much faster.
"This is all at the door. Isn't it reasonable if I don't go in and see?"
Cheng Huai also met her expectant eyes. If Xu Anan had other ideas and went to the library to steal the secret and handed it to Xu Kangwen, then he would give a weak place to her.
His eyelids slightly raised, and he was always indifferent: "Let's go."
Xu Anan followed Cheng Huaiye happily.
Fulingsheng leaned on a tree trunk with no desire. If Xu Anan could enlighten her, it would be the end of the world. Nuwa gave her a beautiful face. Did she pull out her love thread? She was so anxious.
There were guards outside the library, and everyone saluted when they saw Cheng Huai coming.
"I will meet the Emperor, Concubine Ming."
"Flat" he looked at the thick and closed door: "Open the door."
"yes."
The door was pushed open, and it was as bright as daylight. Cheng Huai also walked in. Xu Anan followed. There were four floors in the library, and the shape of the pagoda was very spectacular.
Only after Xu Anan came in did he truly realize what a sea of books is.
The library is very wide, with a strong ink fragrance inside. There are more than twenty or three meters high cabinets on the first floor of the attic, full of books.
Xu Anan picked up a book at will, and this was a medical book that was about to disappear. She just looked through two pages and put it down. After all, she didn't study medicine either.
There is even military strategy in it. Xu Anan doesn’t know much about marching and fighting, but he has a deep understanding of the number of people in the magic circle, but there is no book about metaphysics here.
Following Cheng Huai also walked to the inside. He flipped through it with his hands and took out a simple bamboo book: "This is the record of the Sheng Mansion of the previous dynasty."
As he said that, he took out a scroll from the long brocade box on one side. It was a portrait of a man. The Cheng clan was not ugly. Xu Anan was directly amazed by the handsome man in front of him.
The elegant young man, as bright as the moon, is nothing more than that.
This was Cheng Neng, who had long hair and messy hair that day, but he was too dark that day, and he had no beauty in the portrait at all.
The most amazing thing is that there is a little beauty mole on his forehead.
Seeing Xu Anan being stunned when he saw Cheng Neng's portrait, Cheng Huai was also a little dark. Did he look very bad? Why didn't he see her stunned for a moment? He naturally didn't miss the stunning look in her eyes. He reached out and rolled up the portrait in her hand again.
Xu Anan came back to his senses: "Hey, I haven't looked good yet."
"What do you want to see?"
His tone became even colder, and Xu Anan couldn't help but shiver. What's going on? She didn't mess with him, it was simply inexplicable!
She withdrew her gaze in disappointment. It’s true that Cheng Neng is too beautiful, but what is strange is how could such a splendid man be humiliated by the princess of the Sheng Mansion of the previous dynasty?
She used her hand to flip the picture scroll on the other side. A woman with a stunning appearance appeared on the paper. Her eyebrows were curved and her affectionate eyes were filled with a lingering smile. She looked beautiful and quiet and skillful, but why was she a little familiar with this?
She looked at the lower left corner, and there was a name called Wen Daiqiu on it.
This seems to be the name of the Queen.
Cheng Huai also happened to see it, and his blood solidified in an instant.
"lay down."
Xu Anan was startled by his expression, especially when he looked at her, the murderous intent flashed in his eyes, as if... she had a deep blood hatred with him.
Cheng Huai in front of her was so unfamiliar that she felt terrible.
Before she could finish the rolling, Cheng Huai pushed her away. Xu Anan loosened his hand and the Queen's scroll fell to the ground.
"I didn't mean it, I picked it up now."
Xu Anan had just bent over, and before he could touch his hand, Cheng Huaiye's cold voice sounded: "Don't touch her."
Her hands that stretched out froze, her fingers curled up slightly, and then slowly stood up: "I'm sorry."
She seemed to have accidentally uncovered his scars again. Cheng Huai also took a lot of effort to control his impulse to ruin Xu An'an.
There are few things in this world that can make him out of control. If you have to say one thing, it is the death of Queen Wen.
She was still dead in front of him. When he was young, he was unable to save her. This matter became his inner demon. If he was more powerful, or if he had the right to do so now.
