Shanghai Dandan had a deep impression of Chang 'an City, just like how Liu Changan remembered Jun Sha and this neighborhood all these years.
Chang 'an City was more than two thousand years ago for Liu Changan, but it was like yesterday for Shanghai Dandan.
After the Witch Curse, Chang 'an was in chaos and blood flowed like a river. The Empress, the Crown Prince, the two princesses, and Madame Wei were all killed.
Wei Yang Palace was not a place where people could relax and be lively. Even the young Shangguan Dandan could feel the sternness and coldness of this palace from the fragmented private conversations, the few words, and the names that had already passed away.
The people here always dealt with each other carefully, carefully listening to every word of others and pondering every subtle expression and movement of others.
She entered the palace at a young age and became the most honorable woman in the empire after she was conferred the title. Shanghai Dandan did not hate or try to change anything, because she was like this when she was young, and it was the same when she grew up. Then she got used to it.
At least she could sit in her little carriage and play in the huge palace. Listening to the "ta ta" sound of the little pony running, she could always feel the joy of her heartbeat. The flowers and little animals in the garden were still colorful and lively.
Until the 18-year-old Prince Changyi ran into Chang 'an City and disrupted all the rules and the coldness here. He did not care that his Eldest Uncle was killed here, nor did he care that the pressure of his grandfather was still above everyone's heart like a dark cloud. He lacked respect and gratitude for the uncle and stepfather who suddenly appeared and could let him inherit the throne. He even dared to smile at the Empress Dowager when he was conferred the title of Crown Prince, and his eyes were as presumptuous as a wild horse running in the desert.
Shangguan Dandan was not a person who was easily angered, so she tolerated his impudence. She also knew that a new Emperor who followed the rules, blindly followed the crowd, and obediently obeyed her grandfather and maternal grandfather was not very useful to her.
But he was too presumptuous. He did not even have the slightest intention of concealing his strength and biding his time. Shangguan Dandan gradually discovered that this "son" of hers really treated being an Emperor as a fun thing to play with.
"Is this coffin equipped with artificial intelligence?" How was this illusion triggered? Liu Changan felt that even Shanghai Dandan might not know, because she obviously did not know at the beginning. This scene of her actively triggering an illusion for Liu Changan should be considered intelligent.
Liu Changan remembered the robot beside Professor Crick in the cave in the Gong Family Boundary.
"Artificial intelligence …"
Shanghai Dandan woke up from her memories. She had heard of the term "artificial intelligence" before. Liu Changan had told her about it in class before. She had also seen it in novels. It was just that, after all, it was not in the environment she lived in. Many people felt that they knew the meaning of some English words, but they often did not know how to use them.
So, Shanghai Dandan lifted her skirt and stepped on the small stool. Finally, she was high enough. She stood on her tiptoes and reached out to pinch Liu Changan's cheek. She looked vigilant. "If you don't give up, I won't tell you."
Liu Changan pinched Shanghai Dandan's cheek with the back of his hand. It was too slippery, so he had to use a little more force to pull her cheek. She had no choice but to let go of his cheek.
Shanghai Dandan pushed his hand away and looked at Liu Changan angrily. She gasped and opened her mouth, but she did not say a word for a long time.
People under the eaves had to bow their heads. This unfilial son was arrogant and did not respect his elders. If she angered him, what should she do if he forced her to do something?
After all, men were difficult to understand. They acted recklessly, thought that they were infallible, and were arrogant.
Shanghai Dandan clenched her fists and tried hard to suppress the urge to pinch his face again. She took out her mobile phone. "I don't have money to read anymore."
Liu Changan helped her top up the money, took her mobile phone, looked at her reading record, and helped her vote for the minimum monthly ticket.
"You … How much do you think you know about modern life?" Liu Changan asked. With the Internet, Shanghai Dandan could study on her own. Shanghai Dandan probably could also search on the Internet … Because she would send messages to Liu Changan, but she never asked him questions about modern life. No one could resist the curiosity of living in an environment that was like a different world. She did not show her curiosity in front of Liu Changan, which meant that she had other channels to understand.
"I have learned modern life." Shanghai Dandan looked at the Qidian coin in her Qidian reading app. She was in a good mood and did not look at Liu Changan with reluctant and vigilant eyes.
"Huh?"
"Modern life is mobile phone and … and … and …"
"Are you stuttering?"
"And the thing you bought for me." Shanghai Dandan blushed.
Modern life is mobile phone and sanitary napkins … Liu Changan nodded to show his approval, "I will buy more for you tomorrow."
Shanghai Dandan could not refuse. She bit her lips and nodded while suppressing the shame in her heart. This was his filial piety.
"I am going to play cards." Liu Changan was quite satisfied with the communication tonight. It had to be done step by step. Shanghai Dandan did not have the kind of feeling to open her heart and trust him, so she would not say anything he wanted to know.
However, Liu Changan was not in a hurry. He could move her. Time revealed a person's heart. Sooner or later, she would find that he was exuding the light of kindness and kindness.
"Do you want to go out for a walk?" Liu Changan suggested again.
Shanghai Dandan shook her head. She just looked at the mobile phone and tapped on it with her fingers. This world seemed extremely dangerous. It was better to lie in the coffin and play with the mobile phone to make the girl who had just woken up feel more secure.
Liu Changan originally wanted to teach her how to use the bathroom, but he thought that she had not taken a bath for more than two thousand years. Why was she still as fragrant and soft as before? She probably had her own way. Liu Changan did not meddle. He closed the door and went out to play cards.
Old Man Qian was already waiting for Liu Changan in the mahjong house. Although he lost last time when he beat the bearded man, he could still win back at the mahjong table. After all, playing mahjong well was the real ability in the community. Why was Liu Changan so popular in the community? Everyone gave him gifts during the college entrance examination. Usually, he had more face than Old Man Qian when he was on credit at Auntie Xie's place. When he played cards, everyone was more willing to stand behind him and did not dare to make a move. Wasn't it because Liu Changan was good at mahjong?
If he had gone there ten years earlier, he would have been the number one mahjong player here. Old Man Qian did not admit his old age. Tonight, he continued to challenge Liu Changan … and lost another 30 yuan when the game ended.
Actually, Liu Changan did not win or lose, but Old Man Qian put the blame on him. Liu Changan felt wronged, but he was very satisfied. Then, he went to the canteen with Old Man Qian to buy beer. After chatting for a while about the exciting mahjong game they were proud of, they left.
The armored transport vehicle under the parasol tree had already been stolen. Liu Changan and Qin Yanan did not intend to pursue the matter. The one that brought the coffin back was also driven away by the efficient Zhongqing. Liu Changan looked down at the parasol tree's shadow. Under the bright moonlight, the parasol tree's shadow looked especially like a bat with its wings spread.
Liu Changan lifted the beer bottle and took a gulp. If Professor Krieg hadn't died, then perhaps the message Liu Changan had asked him to bring would have been delivered.
