In the eyes of the world, the so-called Princess An is just a joke. If all parties want to attack Prince An's palace, then targeting her is obviously a good way.
It was precisely with this in mind that Zuo Xiyan was so worried and made such suggestions.
"No need, you know what I'm capable of. It's not that easy to deal with me. You have to be prepared to lose your life first." Xia Luotong knew that he was caring about her, and her heart warmed slightly, but she still refused. His kindness.
Not to mention whether she needs someone to protect her, the mere presence of this guard around her is a problem. Not only does she have to consider whether the cold-faced prince is willing to cooperate with her, but she also has to take into account Zuo Xiyan's own reputation.
She is still carrying the name of Princess An. If others know that she is being protected by Zuo Xiyan, she may not care about her reputation, but Zuo Xiyan will be implicated.
She couldn't bear to have such a gentle and fairy-like man suffer his reputation being damaged, not to mention that he still had to serve as an official in the court, so his feathers needed to be taken good care of.
"Then you should be more careful. If you need me in the future, just ask me." Although Zuo Xiyan was still a little worried, he knew that her mind would not change, so he could only change the topic and asked calmly. He asked the question he most wanted to know, "What about Prince An? What's going on with you two now? Will he stop you from leaving the mansion now?"
"Is there nothing going on? It's still the same as before, alliance and cooperation, mutual benefit, and when things are done, I will leave the palace. But after what happened yesterday, he has some trust in me and no longer holds the prejudice like before The mood for me is uncertain." Xia Luotong didn't notice the slight tension in Zuo Xiyan's tone, and just said it calmly and casually.
"As for going out, he didn't stop me. I guess he didn't care about me, which is good. It also saves me from arguing with him."
She trusted Zuo Xiyan very much, so she did not hide these things from him, but she did not go into too much detail, because whether it was the hatred between her and Xia Mansion, or her subsequent revenge , these are just her own affairs and have nothing to do with him.
She truly regarded him as a friend, and at the same time she cherished this friendship and would not mix it with anything else, let alone use him to achieve her own goals, so she chose not to say anything.
Because she knew that if she said it, he would definitely find a way to help her. She didn't want him to be like this, and she didn't want the friendship between them to deteriorate because of these things.
However, although Xia Luotong didn't say it, Zuo Xiyan could guess it, and he could also probably guess what she was thinking. Although he felt sorry for her, he could only respect her own wishes and secretly pondered what to do next. Keep an eye on her so you can protect her.
"When dealing with Prince An... you'd better be careful. He is not simple. If you make him anxious and you are in Prince An's palace, I'm afraid I won't be able to rescue you and you will get hurt." Zuo Xi Seeing that she didn't seem to have any special relationship with Prince An, Yan felt slightly relaxed and at the same time couldn't help but be concerned.
How could Xia Luotong not know? After all, she was almost strangled to death by the cold-faced prince on her wedding night, and she knew it all too well!
But she naturally wouldn't say it out loud to make him worry: "Don't worry, I know it in my heart and have been trying my best to avoid him. Besides, he and I are now in a cooperative state, and he won't do anything to me for the time being."
The cold-faced prince still has to rely on her to detoxify him. Of course he won't do anything to her until he is completely detoxified, but this involves his personal secrets, and she won't tell them casually no matter what.
Zuo Xiyan saw that she was speaking firmly and that she was a measured person, so he felt relieved for the time being and talked about other things.
"Now that you have shown up, you may be invited to many banquets in the future, but you may not be able to refuse them all." Zuo Xiyan reminded, "Banquets are often the place where accidents are most likely to happen. , there are many people here, and some people with ulterior motives will cause trouble here. You should be more careful in the future. If I happen to be at the banquet, you can come to me if you need help."
Although Xia Luotong had no interest in those banquets, she was not afraid to participate. As for the situations and situations that would arise later, she had also anticipated them, so she was not surprised at all when Zuo Xiyan mentioned them.
She even blinked and said meaningfully with a smile on her lips: "The banquet is indeed the most likely place to cause trouble, but it may not be me who needs to worry about safety, it may be others. This banquet is a convenient place for others to do things." place, it’s the same for me.”
She has to slowly settle the general ledger with the people of Xia Mansion. Naturally, the more chaotic the situation, the better. The easier it is for accidents to happen, the more opportunities she has to take action.
She will not let them fall too hard. She will destroy everything they care about little by little. She will also pay back little by little all the persecution they have inflicted on her and the Sun family in the past or present.
When Zuo Xiyan saw this, he knew what she meant. He couldn't help but laugh and said: "I almost forgot, A Tong is not a woman who is easy to bully. They should worry about things."
Xia Luotong smiled after hearing this, patted his shoulder with a proud look, said with a smile, "This is the right thing! You have to have confidence in me!"
Zuo Xiyan looked at her confident look and felt that she was particularly dazzling. He knew her ability, but he still said: "I have always been very confident in Atong, but I hope you can remember that I will always be by your side to support you." It's yours, so don't be polite to me."
Seeing the sincerity and concentration in his eyes, she sighed: "It's so nice to get to know you."
The speaker didn't mean it, but the listener was moved.
Zuo Xiyan felt as if his heartbeat had missed a beat. After a slight feeling of weightlessness, it began to beat violently. Even the roots of his ears could not help but turn red, with a bit of stuffiness.
She said it was great to meet him.
And why didn't he think so? Meeting her was also a blessing in his life.
Let the cold and indifferent man finally know what the word love is...
Zuo Xiyan was a little distracted because of these few words. Xia Luotong looked at him in surprise. This was the first time he had seen him distracted in front of her.
Then she saw his reddish ears and asked subconsciously: "Are you feeling hot? Do you want to open the window for some fresh air?"
The weather was already cold now, and she was weak. It was too late to be afraid of the cold. She didn't feel that the room was stuffy, but for an internal strength master like Zuo Xiyan, maybe it was a bit stuffy?
