C27 The Clouds in the Sky

"No." Shao Moli smiled and took another sip of tea. When he looked up, there was a smile in his eyes. "Miss Sikou, you are also from Prime Minister Mansion." He paused for a moment. Shao Moli looked at Sikou Nianxi again, "Forgive my ignorance, but I only know that Prime Minister Si Kou has a daughter's name, Sikou Nianyue. But I have never heard of Miss Sikou in Prime Minister Mansion, who is an outstanding beauty. I wonder what kind of relationship you have with Prime Minister Si Kou."

Sikou Nianxi's hand tightly gripped the teacup in her cup. Shao Moli saw Sikou Nianxi's actions and slightly frowned. After a while, Sikou Nianxi raised her head to look at Shao Moli again. A thin layer of ice appeared in her eyes. "Of course you don't know me. Sikou Nianyue is the daughter of Prime Minister Mansion's daughter. And I am an outsider. "

She looked at Shao Moli who was still staring at her as if he did not understand. Sikou Nianxi shook her head with a bitter smile and added, "Prime Minister Si Kou is my uncle."

"I see." Shao Moli nodded thoughtfully, and then he looked at Sikou Nianxi's appearance and asked probingly, "Why is your uncle the prime minister of the current dynasty? Miss Si Kou seems to be a little lonely. Could it be that the prime minister isn't good to you?"

"What do you think?" Sikou Nianxi picked up the teacup on the table and raised it before her eyes to play with it repeatedly, but her tone seemed to be a little sad. "How good can it be to live under someone else's roof?"

Actually, the life of living under someone's roof that Sikou Nianxi spoke of was much better than when she had just arrived. At that time, when she first came to seek refuge with Sikou Chang, her clothes were already in tatters due to her long journey. Her face was also dirty and could not be distinguished from her original appearance.

Sikou Nianxi would never forget the expression of disgust on the guard's face when he saw her. After listening to her explain the purpose of her visit, those servants pushed her out of the door together and said that beggars should go somewhere else to beg for food. They did not want to have any ideas about Prime Minister Mansion.

She, Sikou Nianxi, had been living a life of luxury since she was young. How could she have been wronged like this? But today was different from the past. She, Sikou Nianxi, was very clear on this point.

She did not say anything, did not refute or cry. She just stood there quietly and refused to leave no matter what. When the guards saw that they could not chase her away, they simply ignored her.

In the end, it was the old butler of Prime Minister Mansion who saw her pity and brought her into Prime Minister Mansion. He could not persuade Sikou Nianxi to beg again and again. That kind old butler finally agreed to let her try to see Sikou Chang.

It was also because of this that Sikou Chang believed that Sikou Nianxi was his niece. Actually, even without Sikou Nianxi taking out the unique seal of Si Kou Manor, Sikou Chang would be able to recognize her at a glance. Because Sikou Nianxi really looked too similar to her mother.

But after seeing Sikou Nianxi, Sikou Chang was a little surprised. But then he hurriedly called Sikou Nianxi up. After hearing about Sikou Nianxi's encounter, he even said that he would definitely take good care of Sikou Nianxi for Si Kou Zhenyu.

When he first came out, Sikou Nianxi still had a good impression of him. She once naively thought that after finding Sikou Chang, with his Prime Minister's power, he would be able to immediately take revenge for his parents.

But later on, he allowed Sikou Nianyue and Madame Su to bully Sikou Nianxi. No matter how badly Sikou Nianxi was bullied, he would always turn a blind eye and only show a very loving look in front of outsiders.

Gradually, Sikou Nianxi also understood. This so-called uncle was not as reliable as she thought at first. It was precisely because of Sikou Chang's inaction that Madame Su and Sikou Nianyue became more and more presumptuous towards Sikou Nianxi.

Sikou Nianxi had no one to rely on in this huge Prime Minister Mansion. Other than being obedient, she had no other way. Until she met Liu Rufeng. Thinking of this, the corner of Sikou Nianxi's mouth curled up. If she did not meet her master, she really did not know how she would have died in the Prime Minister Mansion.

Shao Moli put down the teacup when he heard this, as if he was thinking of writing something. He looked at Sikou Nianxi and suddenly said, "Since that's the case, why do you have to condescend to stay here? With your intelligence, eh, with the Five Elements Eight Trigrams Formation that trapped me just now, are you still afraid that you won't be able to find a place to live?"

Seeing that Sikou Nianxi did not speak, Shao Moli continued to ask shamelessly," If you don't mind, Miss, But follow me back to the manor. I just saw the formation that young lady set up. I feel that it is very coincidental and I also want to learn it. If the young lady could return with me to the residence, I wouldn't hesitate to teach her. I am very grateful. Although my mansion is not as luxurious as the Prime Minister Mansion, it is located in the most prosperous place in the imperial city. It is usually very lively. Miss, do you want to go and take a look? "

Sikou Nianxi looked at the clouds in the sky and slightly curved her lips. "Young Master Shao, do you think the colorful clouds in the sky are very beautiful?" "Ah?" Shao Moli did not expect Sikou Nianxi to suddenly say that. He turned around in shock and looked at the clouds in the sky with her eyes.

It was sunset and the sun was about to set. The afterglow dyed the clouds in the horizon a colorful and vibrant color. Shao Moli smiled and nodded. "I have not paid much attention to the sunset. Looking carefully today, it is indeed beautiful."

Sikou Nianxi looked at the clouds on Sky Mountain and said sadly. I haven't looked at the clouds so carefully in a long time. "

How long was a long time? Even Sikou Nianxi herself could not remember. Ever since her entire family was destroyed and her father, mother, and brother left her, Sikou Nianxi no longer seemed to have the leisure to look at the clouds in the sky like she did today.

It was not that she did not want to look, but because there was a huge rock pressing down on her heart, Sikou Nianxi had long been suppressed until she could not breathe. If she did not take revenge, how could she have the qualifications to do what she truly liked? Furthermore, although the clouds were beautiful, how could the oppressive environment in Prime Minister Mansion be suitable to enjoy the sunrise and sunset, and the clouds filling the sky?

Thinking of this, Sikou Nianxi could not help but shake her head and smile bitterly. "Young Master Shao, there are some things that you can't do as you wish. For example, although I don't want to stay in Prime Minister Mansion now, I have to stay here. I still have some things to do here."

Shao Moli frowned." What is it? Can I help you?" "No." Sikou Nianxi shook her head. "I have to do it myself."

This was something that she had to do with her own hands. This was the only belief that Sikou Nianxi had in her life until now. She had to take revenge for her father, mother, and everyone in the mansion. The Prime Minister Mansion was the place where information gathered the most. Moreover, Sikou Chang had personally admitted that he wanted to help her find the murderer who destroyed her entire family that day. Although she did not know whether Sikou Chang was reliable or not, staying in Prime Minister Mansion was Sikou Nianxi's best choice.
