Reborn Black Lotus can read minds

Shen Dayan nodded.

"Everywhere is not peaceful. The tens of thousands of people in the Central Army can hardly be supported by the imperial court. I am afraid that they have no time to care about the Northern Desert. Although the imperial court has promised to collect taxes after the autumn harvest, it will provide military pay to the Northern Desert. Guess he will then "Fat" means that when you arrive at a place, you must first endure it until the autumn harvest... If the autumn harvest does not occur, continue to endure it... Food and grass are also in short supply. This is how the first few waves of people were forced to leave, so the military pay Pay more attention to things."

Xiao Xingyun bowed solemnly, "Thank you, General, for your advice."

After thinking for a while, he bowed respectfully: "I would like to say hello to the general on behalf of my grandfather. I will return to Beijing now."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Xingyun turned around.

At his speed, he could walk through the small house in two steps.

But today, he walked extremely slowly. If he competed with the elderly woman, he might not be able to win.

After taking two steps, Shen Dayan's voice came from behind, "It's getting so late and you're traveling a long way. Why don't you rest at your house today and start again tomorrow?"

Xiao Xingyun stopped, turned around, and said respectfully: "Thank you, General, for your kindness. I have important matters to attend to, so I won't bother you at home."

Shen Dayan thought for a while. People who were about to leave for Bei Mo must have many things that were not ready. If they stayed as guests rashly, they might delay other people's plans and itineraries.

He said: "Forget it, you can go back."

Xiao Xingyun showed a very faint smile, as if he was not smiling, turned around and walked out.

He looked sideways slightly, and the figure standing outside the door paused.

When Shen Dayan saw that figure, he seemed to be in a good mood. He waved his hand and said, "Yuan'er, just come in."

Xiao Xingyun's

The world was extremely quiet at the moment, and he could hear nothing except the footsteps behind him.

Shen Dayan smiled at Xiao Xingyun, "This is my youngest daughter, Yuan'er. Because she knows that I often suffer from insomnia at night, she brings me soothing soup every day. Even if it's windy or rainy, she can't stop it, so she still comes in person. ,Hahaha!"

Shen Dayan's words were full of relief and joy, and he added: "They say that the daughter is the lover of the father in the previous life. You are not a father, so you must not know this feeling."

Xiao Xingyun smiled lightly and said, "I really want to experience this feeling."

Shen Dayan laughed even louder: "Not everyone can give birth to a daughter as well-behaved as me."

Shen Dayan's tense strings relaxed, and he suddenly took off his airs as a general and returned to the identity of an ordinary father. He would take his sensible daughter out for a walk whenever he met someone.

While the two were talking, Miss Shen Qi had already walked to Shen Dayan carrying the decoction.

Xiao Xingyun raised his eyes. In this brief moment, all the memories related to her in his mind surged up like an ocean.

Miss Shen Qi wore a light green dress, bringing a fresh spring atmosphere. She has an extremely delicate little face, and her jade-like eyes flicker gently. If you take one more look, you will be sucked in by her eyes. Her slender hands are folded in front of her waist, dignified and elegant.

Behind her was a maid with a delicate face. Her clever eyes moved around, scanning Xiao Xingyun's face, and she spoke first: "Is it you, the young master from Hua Chaojie?"

Xiao Xingyun smiled and nodded, "Miss Luzhu still remembers me."

Lu Zhu covered her mouth in surprise, "Young Master actually remembers my name!"

夜

The color is cool, the moonlight is like cold water, and the shadows of the trees are mottled in front of the window.

"But after a few months, I naturally remember it," Xiao Xingyun looked at Shen Yuan, as if through her eyes, "...I wonder if Miss Shen Qi still remembers me?"

Shen Yuan slowly raised her head and looked at him.

His heart suddenly tightened.

The meaning in her eyes is chaos, not clear, not arbitrary.

As a result, countless images of her flashed before Xiao Xingyun's eyes, including lively her, happy her, angry her, and ignorant her. But no one else can match the eyes she has at this moment.

This feeling made him uncomfortable. It was obviously that familiar face, but she looked at him with eyes that didn't belong to her. Something in his heart suddenly collapsed.

Her eyes were not blank, ignorant, and clear as on the Hua Chao Festival, but cautious, cautious, and even nervous.

Standing next to her is her biological father, and to her right is her personal maid. What should she be careful about? This is the Shen family's mansion, and it is heavily guarded outside. What should she be careful about?

As for being nervous, why?

After the one-time encounter during the Flower Festival, when we meet again now, it should be a small joy to see an old friend again, or a surprise like a green bamboo.

No, no, no, she has none of these normal emotions.

Shen Dayan saw something unusual, he smiled and said, "Why, Yuan'er became nervous when she saw an acquaintance?"

Xiao Xingyun stood aside, looking at her and this familiar face. He couldn't tell whether he was more looking forward to or more afraid of her answer at the moment.

He has never been a person who likes to deceive himself, no matter how cruel the truth is, he

They must be closer to the truth than anyone else. But at this moment, there was a flash of escape in his heart.

If she is really not Shen Yuan, then who is she? So everything he did, everything he did for the Shen family...

Shen Yuan coughed twice and spoke.

"It's been several months since we met at Hua Chao Festival. It's hard to avoid feeling uncomfortable seeing the young master today."

Her voice was as crisp as an oriole's, neither thick nor thin, but her articulation habits were completely different from before.

In the past, her speech was crisp and loud, not soft at all, and revealed a stubbornness.

At this moment, Xiao Xingyun's eyes became lonely, the light in his eyes disappeared, and the whole figure fell into the ice cellar.

Shen Yuan blinked her soul-stirring eyes, but it showed the intention of catering and playing tricks on the situation.

Shen Yuan's temperament was as transparent as water. She has never known these worldly flatteries, and does not understand these roundabout ways of human relationships.

The Shen family raised her so well that she never let her come into contact with any filth in the world.

Not her.

Every time he saw her in the past, the strings in his heart would relax. She was innocent and left no one guessing. Don't let anyone defend you either. Even if you hand a knife to her hand, you don't have to worry that she will stab you next moment.

Everything feels different now.

Xiao Xingyun had to distinguish how much truth and how much falseness in her words. He hated this feeling, especially doing it to this face.

It was a little cold in the lobby, Xiao Xingyun said: "There are a lot of disturbances today, I will say goodbye here."

It is inconvenient for Shen Dayan to stay longer: "Well, say hello to Mr. Duan for me."

"I'll give Young Master Xiao a ride." Shen Yuan said.

He nodded without speaking.

Shen Yuan followed him as he walked along a long road.

In the quiet corridor, footsteps came one after another, and the atmosphere between the two became even quieter.
