Chapter 362 How did the prince find Nalan?
Daiyu and the maids sat quietly in the carriage, and there was silence all around.
As time passed, the sky became darker and darker, as if a huge black curtain was slowly covering the earth.
Daiyu couldn't help yawning, it was obvious that she was tired.
Seeing this, Furong quickly reached out to support her and asked softly:
“Girl, what do you think?
If you feel uncomfortable, we might as well talk to the coachman and ask him to drive slower."
Daiyu shook her head slightly and said softly:
"I'm fine. I'm not that delicate."
Having said that, she soon yawned again, this time louder, and then rubbed her eyes gently.
Just like that, she slowly leaned on Furong's shoulder like a lazy kitten.
After she adjusted to a more comfortable position, she half-closed her eyes, her vision gradually became hazy, and soon she fell asleep in a daze.
At the same time, in another carriage, Prince Beijing was sitting anxiously.
Along the way, his heart was in his throat, and he urged Xiao Luzi to catch up with the carriage in front from time to time.
Xiao Luzi held the reins tightly, not daring to slack off at all, and used all his strength to make the carriage move forward as fast as possible.
However, Xiao Luzi was still full of doubts:
"Is the person in the car really the wife?"
The road became more and more difficult, and the surrounding scenery became more and more desolate.
This place is obviously the direction leading to the mountainous area in the western suburbs. The road is rugged and full of potholes.
The prince felt very uncomfortable in the carriage and could not calm down.
He was afraid that Xiao Luzi would accidentally lose Daiyu's carriage, so he would reach out from time to time to open the door curtain and stick his head out to look ahead.
The night was getting darker and darker. Looking at the rocky mountain road, he thought to himself:
"How could Yu'er live in such a remote place?"
Despite this, he still ordered Xiao Luzi to follow the carriage in front closely.
When Daiyu woke up, the carriage had already stopped at the gate of Master Nalan's manor.
Seeing Daiyu sleeping soundly, the maids woke her up in a low voice:
"Girl, girl, wake up, let's go home and sleep!"
Suddenly, a familiar figure opened the door curtain. He looked at Daiyu, who had just woken up, and she looked like a lotus covered with morning dew.
This person was none other than Nalan. He was getting impatient waiting at the manor, so he had no choice but to go to the door and wait for Daiyu to come back.
At this moment, seeing them come back, Nalan couldn't help but be overjoyed. He smiled and said, "Girl, you should go to bed early!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he hesitated for a moment, then slowly stretched out his right hand, which was trembling slightly in the air.
He wanted to support Daiyu and help her get off the carriage safely, but just as he was about to touch her, an idea suddenly flashed through his mind:
It would be too abrupt to grab her hand in front of the girls at this moment!
So, just as he was about to touch Daiyu's hand, he stopped in the carriage and stood outside in embarrassment.
The little girls in the carriage couldn't help laughing.
After hesitating for a long time, Nalan sighed helplessly and slowly withdrew his hand. His face felt burning hot.
It was Furong again. She quickly got off the carriage. Nalan just stood aside and watched Daiyu being helped off the carriage by Furong.
Several maids immediately hugged Daiyu, and Nalan followed closely behind them and walked inside.
Just when the prince and Xiao Luzi arrived here, a maid happened to walk out of the yard.
She first looked around cautiously, then turned around and prepared to go in and close the door.
Seeing this, the prince jumped off the carriage without hesitation and rushed towards the gate that was about to be closed.
Seeing that the little girl was about to close the door, the prince was extremely anxious. He quickly reached out and grabbed the side of the door that was about to close, and asked impatiently:
"Little girl, whose yard is this?"
The girl was only thinking about closing the door as quickly as possible and returning to her room to rest, but she never expected that such a reckless person would show up in the middle of the night.
Naturally, she felt a little unhappy, so she waved her hands irritably and responded unhappily:
"I have no idea!"
The prince did not give up. He pointed to the courtyard and asked again:
"Did a young girl suddenly come here?"
Now the little girl felt even more annoyed.
She raised her head and looked the prince up and down without any hesitation. Then she yawned several times and replied lazily:
"do not know!"
When the prince heard this, he was instantly furious.
He held the door tightly, refusing to let the little girl close it, and at the same time he shouted at the top of his voice:
"Call your master to me!
There is actually such a rude and unreasonable girl who has no respect for her elders!"
Who could have expected that the prince's words would ignite the long-suppressed anger in the girl's heart like a fire.
She suddenly turned around, her pretty face flushed red with anger, and glared at the prince fiercely.
Then, she ruthlessly shook off the prince's hand that was tightly holding the door. Then, she rushed into the yard and closed the heavy door tightly with lightning speed.
Seeing this situation, the prince was naturally unwilling.
Veins bulged on his forehead. He raised his fist and banged on the tightly closed door, making a "bang bang bang" sound, as if he wanted to smash a hole in the door.
However, no matter how hard the prince knocked on the door, there was no movement from inside.
Seeing that no one answered, the prince became more and more angry.
Just then, he caught a glimpse of a huge stone at his feet. Furious, he bent down without hesitation, reached out to pick up the stone and smashed it at the gate.
In the blink of an eye, Xiao Luzi, who had just parked the carriage, rushed forward quickly and grabbed the prince's arm tightly.
Xiao Luzi looked anxious, raised his hand and pointed at the dark night sky above his head, and lowered his voice to advise:
"Master, calm down, let's go back quickly!
It's really against the rules to make such a noise in front of someone else's house at this time of night!"
Upon hearing this, the prince frowned, his face full of reluctance. He gritted his teeth and said:
"But I haven't asked clearly yet, is that person Yu'er?
If I don't get to the bottom of this matter, how can I sleep peacefully tonight? "
"Who's yelling at the door this evening?"
Suddenly, accompanied by the sound of footsteps, the door was suddenly pushed open.
The man raised his head and looked at the person in front of him in surprise - why is Prince Beijing here?
The prince then discovered that the person coming out of the gate was actually a first-class sword-bearing guard - Nalan Rongruo!
Nalan had no choice but to come over and pay his respects. He asked the prince with a suspicious look on his face:
"My Lord, what is the matter that brings you to my manor so late at night?
How did you find this place?
