LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 12
Twilight had faded, and the last wisp of light fell on the young man who suddenly appeared. His black robe floated gently, and a few loose hair strands brushed against his face, revealing a pair of deep and clear eyes.
The little girl who was clenching her little fist and hammering Qi Yu unknowingly stopped to stare at him.
In her whole life, this is the first time she saw such a beautiful big brother. A pair of bright eyes looked at Yuan Buwei without blinking, directly ignoring the sentence Qi Yu had shouted out.
She blinked and asked curiously: “… Are you a monster who only appears at night and catches children?” That’s how the stories usually go.
Yuan Buwei: “…?”
Without waiting for Yuan Buwei’s answer, she took the initiative to loosen Qi Yu, raised her neck and said in a milky voice: “Catch me, don’t catch him! He’s stupid, fat, uneducated, and isn’t delicious.”
Unexpectedly, the little girl has such a kind side. Qi Yu, who was beaten to tears by her little fists just now, was immediately moved and decided to forgive the disrespectful wild girl: “Well, this is not a monster, this is my…”
“Shut up!” Su Xu’er waved her fist at him. “A smart, beautiful and sweet child like me is worthy of being caught by the monster brother. As for you?”
She snorted, “If he caught you. Other monsters will laugh at him for being blind.”
“…” Qi Yu’s good feelings suddenly disappeared.
Seeing that her eyes were shining as she looked at Yuan Buwei, as if she couldn’t wait to be taken away. Qi Yu finally knew that she was excited.
So, “Stupid, fat, uneducated, and isn’t delicious.” is not a lie to protect him, but her real thoughts?
… I’m so angry.
Qi Yu’s face was expressionless: “This is my imperial brother.”
Su Xuer: “! ! !” Critical hit!
In the little girl’s expression of shock, Qi Yu got up from the ground and ran to Yuan Buwei in three or two steps.
Then he grabbed his sleeve.
“This is my imperial brother!”
Repeating it again, Qi Yu raised his face, like swearing sovereignty, and looked proudly at Su Xu’er.
Su Xuer: ” …”
Not only critical hit! Super double critical hit!
The sung smile on little dumpling’s face looked unspeakable in Su Xuer’s eyes.
She couldn’t help grinding her teeth and looked at the two brothers whose painting styles were vastly different with incredible eyes.
At the same time, she finally understood what Qi Yu was shouting before.
The bright words “unworthy” were written on the little girl’s undisguised expression. Looking at her, it is obvious that she can’t accept such a cruel fact at all.
Qi Yu was so angry by the meaning of her expression that he almost wanted to go up and fight with the wild girl for 300 rounds. The back of his neck was held again!
He struggled with all four limbs, when he turned his head he met imperial brothers smiling eyes.
Qi Yu settled down at once.
A moment later, by the sparkling pond, two dumplings stood in a row, still fighting with each other with their eyes.
Yuan Buwei glanced down at them.
The two men who were fighting in the eyes quickly took back their gazes. Stood with their hands behind their backs, raised their chin still rounded with baby fat and looked at the young man in front of them with their round eyes.
… Clever.jpg 1
Yuan Buwei has always taken the initiative to provoke other people into conflict, even while eating melons and watching the play. It’s the first time he has played the role of mediating the conflict.
And the conflict is actually two children under the age of 10.
This was something unexpected and gave him a sense of novelty.
But his face remained serious and indifferent.
“Imperial brother, it’s really not my fault…” With emotional eyes, Qi Yu raised his round hand and pointed his finger to the little girl next to him. Taking the lead in pushing the blame, “It’s all her!”
“I don’t know what magic she used, as soon as I saw her I couldn’t help but give her all the sugar gourd in my hand – imperial brother those were things you bought for me. How could I give it to a little girl I just met? I was fascinated!”
As he spoke, he patted his chest with fear. With a face full of confusion, incomprehension and grievance.
Su Xu’er also swelled with anger: “What are you talking about? How could I cast any spells? If I can, I’ll be the first to exchange the foolish you with me, or exchange you with xiong zhang2!”
Shouldn’t the beautiful big brother like him be matched with a beautiful and considerate sister like her? Does this little fool deserve it? Do they match? Do they?!
In her heart, Su Xu’er asked a soul deep question. Glaring at the little fatty who could only push blame, and her whole person soured into a lemon.
“Well, you really have an impure purpose!”
Being resolutely despised, Qi Yu suddenly became a puffer fish. He turned his head to Yuan Buwei and continued to tattle, like a petty little man who liked to spread gossip.
“Imperial brother, look at her. She not only deceived my candy haws, but also dared to covet your beauty!”
“– ouch!”
Yuan Buwei knocked on his forehead to shake him from his thoughts. Successfully making Qi Yu cover his forehead and shut his mouth.
Qi Yu is also very good at discerning people’s expressions from their eyes. Obviously, at this time, Yuan Buwei was in a bad mood.
System 999 immediately guessed what he was thinking: [If Su Mingyou had died, this little girl would probably be your future fiance. So terrible that a seven-year-old girl was betrothed to a 23-year-old man by the emperor.]
In fact, it wants to make fun of the host, but the strong desire to survive stopped the system 999 in time.
Yuan Buwei also can’t help being dumbfounded inside.
In the future plot, the emperor married the prime minister’s only daughter to the crown prince in the name of “The enemy should be resolved but not settled”.3 Regardless of such a large age gap, don’t know whether this is to dispel hatred or add fuel to the flames?
Or is there another consideration——
Due to the fiancee being so young, the marriage was put off until seven years later. During this period, there would be no children under the knees of the original body, and there was still the strange poison in the body. All factors show the opposite sign of longevity. Even if the king of Chu Qi Yu did not rebel, once the original owner died, the king of Chu Qi Yu was the first in line to the throne.
Maybe this was overthinking things, but questioning others has become an instinct of Yuan Buwei. Making him always aware of the dark side of the people’s heart at the first opportunity.
Such speculation is not impossible.
It seemed to jog some memories. Yuan Buwei’s eyes dropped to freezing point, and the curl of the corners of my lips became fainter and fainter.
Qi Yu was keenly aware of the coldness of imperial brother’s expression and didn’t dare to make mischief any more. He just covered his forehead and kept his head down.
Yuan Buwei couldn’t help smiling at his depressed expression.
While he was depressed, Yuan Buwei took all the sticks of candied haws in his hands — they were wrapped tightly, and even within the war zone, they stayed intact as tools — and gave them directly to Su Xuer as a compensation to the little girl.
“Don’t bother with him, he’s really not very smart,” he said
Qi Yu: “ …”
… Doubting if this is my biological brother.
At this time, the garden where several people stood happened to be a place connected between the front yard and the backyard of the prime minister’s house. Although Su Xuer, as a miss of the prime minister’s house, was only seven years old, she would start to avoid suspicion according to the rules of this era.
Before long, a servant girl came intending to take the young lady who ran around without restraint back.
Looking at the little girl’s back, holding the candy haws in victory, and the other party’s posture of turning back with reluctance to part. Qi Yu, who was still sad and depressed, was happy again and came back to life with full blood.
What if you successfully cheat candy haw? The Imperial brother is still his!
In a moment, from listless to elated, seeing Qi Yu’s proud little appearance, Yuan Buwei swallowed the words he prepared to appease the little dumpling.
He directly asked his question: “Just now you said that you couldn’t help giving all the candy haws to her as soon as you saw her? Is that true?”
Qi Yu nodded emphatically: “Of course it’s true.”
That’s why he thinks this little girl is evil. When did his generation of palace top dog take the initiative to give their good things to others?
But at the moment he saw Su Xuer, he had an inexplicable favor at first sight. When he heard the little girl talking to herself about being hungry, his hand uncontrollably offered his candy haws.
——When the two meet at the time of the original plot, Qi Yu is already a teenager, and may regard this inexplicable favor as love at first sight. But as an eight – year-old child, he only felt that the other party must have used black magic!
Qi Yu explained his feelings in detail and speculation of Su Xuer using black magic sounded so reasonable. Yuan Buwei couldn’t refute it for a while.
[233334 I almost lost my head laughing. Isn’t that the attraction between the male and female lead of the plot? Now it’s become balck magic? Why is the male lead so simple and naive? Is he really the brilliant revolutionary in the original plot?]
Yuan Buwei: “Do you have a head?”
System 999: […]
Yuan Buwei looked at Qi Yu and asked, “Have you ever had a similar intuition to other people except her?”
Qi Yu was asked by him and thought carefully for a while before he said, “There seems to be a few other people.”
He didn’t think seriously before, and his feelings for others were not as strong as those for Su Xuer. However there were occasions when he thought carefully——
“I like a few of the little eunuchs around me… I always think they are more pleasing. And Prime Minister Su, I feel good when I see him.”
Speaking of this, Qi Yu was a little frightened.
——Is it not Su Xuer who has the problem, but himself?
System 999 was also surprised: [The protagonist seems to be a little unusual!]
Generally speaking, the reason why the protagonist in the plot walks smoothly, excluding their own excellence, is really related to luck and intuition.
Malicious villains are clearly hidden, but the protagonist’s intuitively are wary of them. And the people who can help the protagonist, can also be identified subconsciously and have a good relationship.
But Qi Yu’s intuition, even considering the protagonist’s own halo, is sharp to the point of excess.
After learning about the aura of the protagonist, system 999 wondered: [Is it because he is still young and pure in mind, so his intuition is sharper?]
The more Yuan Buwei listened, the more interested he felt. At this time, his eyes towards Qi Yu are full of interest.
“… I suddenly had an interesting idea.”
The author has something to say:
2333 the inspiration for the hero’s aura comes from:
In many novels, setting auras for the protagonists is such a routine. Obviously, the villain disguises perfectly, just like the good man. There are no flaws. Others have no doubt, but the protagonist always feels that there is something wrong with this person and subconsciously is on guard.
A golden thigh / excellent project that is ordinary in the eyes of others and has no networking value / investment value. The protagonist can feel the promise.
Of course, the above is about the protagonist who has no ability, relying solely on luck and intuition. There are also some excellent protagonists who, relying on their own intelligence, have analyzed the flaws of the villains, the value of the project and so on.
