Chapter 19 Warmth

The dew is thick and frost is heavy, and the ancestral hall is gushing with cold wind at night. Shu Yao curled up on the futon with her knees in her arms. In front of her was the cold tablet of Princess Yongning.

It's so cold.

She stared quietly at the princess' tablet, her clear apricot eyes were a little out of focus. Her stomach was so hungry that it was a little numb. Compared to hunger and cold, Shu Yao felt more of an indescribable feeling in her heart.

She had never seen her mother since she was conscious. When she was a child, she would cry and ask her uncle why everyone else had parents, but she was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was raised by her? Her uncle could only smile bitterly and use other things to coax her.

She had promised her uncle to come to Qinyang Hou’s Mansion before, and she still had a faint expectation in her heart. Don’t she want to be pampered by her parents and surrounded by her brothers and sisters like an ordinary child? But she was destined to be unable to place hope on Qinyang Hou, and he would only repeatedly extinguish her desire for her father.

"Mom," Shu Yao whispered, "I'm so cold."

All she responded to was the echo of the wall and the faint sound of the wind outside the window.

The ancestral hall has been in disrepair for a long time, and no one will come at ordinary times, and it exudes a decay everywhere. Shu Yao doesn't even want to pass by this kind of place, but when she came in today, she didn't say a word.

Perhaps because she was completely disappointed with Qin Yanghou, she couldn't even get angry.

Shu Yao was already very sleepy, her chin leaned against her knees and curled up in an insecure position. When she was half asleep and half awake, she seemed to hear the sound of the lock. Someone pushed open the door and walked to her side.

Hum? Who is it?

Shu Yao felt that she was really sleepy, and she felt that her figure looked a bit like the disciple who forced her in her dream... She rubbed her eyes and heard a familiar and clear voice: "Princess?"

It was actually Li Mingji.

The girl was confused, staring at him blankly with almond eyes, as if thinking about why he appeared here, like a frightened rabbit. Li Mingji patiently waited for her to wake up, put the food box next to her, untied her shirt and draped it on her, and her voice was soft, "Princess, offended."

His whole body was filled with a familiar atmosphere, like the fresh fragrance of grass and trees in the air after it rained. Shu Yao wrapped her shirt tightly, and suddenly her nose felt sore, and she bumped into Li Mingji's arms, and she was mute and stuttering:

"Li Mingji...why are you..."

Wen Xiang and Wei Wei hugged her arms, and Li Mingji's body stiffened, and his breath was a little deeper without control. The girl in her arms was ignorant, and her tears fell down like a broken thread, and she wet her clothes in a blink of an eye.

She didn't say a word, swallowed her voice, just sobbing like a little beast. Li Mingji used to like bullying her to cry, enjoying the feeling of kissing her tears. However, at this moment, the little princess hugged in his arms trust and sobbed, and he became at a loss.

A strange warm current passed through his heart. He raised his slender fingers and gently pushed away the hair on Shu Yao's forehead. "Princess, don't worry, you'll be fine soon."

The emperor's carriage should have arrived in the capital. At the latest tomorrow, he will be able to take Shu Yao out of the Qinyang Hou Mansion.

As for Li Mingxuan...

Li Mingji's eyes were dark and a killing intention flashed across.

Shu Yao cried even harder.

She had never suffered such grievances when she grew up so old? It was ridiculous to say that she was the most noble princess in the capital. She was locked up in the ancestral hall by her father. The only one who could accompany her was the only Jade-faced scholar she saved.

She thrust, her eyes were swollen, and she cried so hard that she was out of breath. She still glared at him fiercely: "Today, what you see tonight, don't say it!"

The dignified princess cried in disrespectfully in front of a half-baked man. What does it look like?

Li Mingji laughed silently, with a faint pampering floating in his eyes, and a gentle smile: "Mingji knows."

Shu Yao cried for a while and her mood slowly calmed down. She realized that she was pulling his belt and rubbing all her tears on his clothes.

Fortunately, the young man in front of him was gentle enough, and even if she took the initiative to rush in, he gave her enough face and did not push her away directly.

The little princess blushed in a bad mood, deliberately ignored what she had done, let go of his arms, and looked at her erratic eyes to change the topic: "How did you come in?"

Li Mingji still looked as calm as a jade mountain: "Your maid helped. They said that you had not eaten yet, so I brought it in."

Shu Yao was very playful when she was a child and brought Chunrui with her pine needles to do bad things. It was probably Chunrui's idea to find a way to put Li Mingji in.

She opened the food box and saw the dishes she liked. She finally smiled. She picked up a few bites with silver chopsticks before she muttered: "Tell Songzhi Chunrui and asked them to send a message to her uncle, and she said that if he didn't come back, his beloved niece would starve to death here."

Shu Yao is picky and picky in front of her acquaintances, and she will unconsciously show a little innocent and silly. This is a sign of her trust in others. Li Mingji smiled and said ok, but she did not point it out.

“As for what happened today…”

Shu Yao's eyes were slightly closed, she bit her lip, and her tone became a little colder, "I will tell my uncle myself."

She still has something to ask her uncle.

Li Mingji still said good things.

Shu Yao was 70% full and subconsciously rubbed her lower abdomen. When she saw Li Mingji not looking at her, she took out her handkerchief with confidence and wiped her face gracefully. The experience of crying at someone with disagreement is too embarrassing, and she really doesn't want to recall it again.

She obviously endured it well, but why did she cry? Could it be that Li Mingji is an outsider, and she was much more relaxed in front of him...

However, Shu Yao has never seen someone like Li Mingji.

It seemed like he had no temper. No matter how others bullied him, he looked faint. Shu Yao thought he was smiling at first, but later she found that he was just pursing his lips lightly, expressionless, as if everything in the world made him unable to get interested.

"Li Mingji," Shu Yao suddenly spoke, "Do you have a good relationship with your father?"

Li Mingji said calmly: "On average."

His biological father had long died. As for the "father" Mr. Li... he was a qualified minister, but he didn't know how to be a qualified father.

Shu Yao said "Oh" dryly.

Thinking about it, Li Mingji, a concubine's son and his brother are arrogant and domineering. If his father had not been sitting there, could he be bullied like this? Not all families are like Qin Yang's Marquis' Mansion, leaving their own daughter alone and begging their concubines and destroying their wives.

"I was taken back to the Li Mansion by my father eight years ago. My father was willing to keep me by my side, so I was already lenient to me," Li Mingji smiled faintly, looking at Shu Yao with dark eyes, "If my father hadn't brought me back, I would have been displaced like those people in the flood."

Eight years ago...

Shu Yao is still young and only remembers that the flood in the south was in trouble, but she suffered from a serious illness, and her high fever did not go away and she did not recover for several months.
