Ye Jinxiao returned to his house and rubbed his tired shoulders.
It's long overdue for a rest.
If he hadn't found someone sneaking in while taking a bath, went to the Liu Mansion to make a fuss, and been delayed for a long time by King Xiaoyao, I would have been dreaming right now.
Too much to do and irritable.
It's all Liu Mingyue's fault.
Also blame the ancient feudal system.
Her marriage contract was given by the emperor, and she could only reconcile with the emperor's nod. If she hadn't been detained in Prince Yu's palace, would she have to deal with Liu Mingyue every day?
Walk back to Lengyuan.
"Why did you come back?"
Not far away, a sudden voice sounded.
Ye Jinxiao stopped and saw a shadow coming from the darkness over there. The man had a dark figure and his eyes were staring straight at her, even more coldly.
question?
Appreciate?
Or speculation?
Ye Jinxiao laughed back: "Where have I been, who have I met, and what have I said? Do I need to write a note and report to you every day?"
"Can."
"?"
Chu Yuci looked easygoing: "Since you are so sincere, I have no choice but to help you."
"..."
Ye Jinxiao instantly stopped smiling, cooled his eyes, and stopped arguing with him.
"What's the matter?"
"Why are you back so late?"
Chu Yuci stared at her from head to toe, all over her body, as if trying to discern some clues.
"What does it have to do with you?"
"You are my king's princess. It seems reasonable for me to ask you a few words."
Why haven't I seen him worry about this before?
When I saw her in the past, I felt as disgusted as seeing the plague, and I would hide as far away as possible.
"Okay, are you done asking?"
Chu Yuci looked at her, waiting for an answer.
Ye Jinxiao lazily folded his hands across his chest, "I'll leave first after I've finished asking. You asked your question, but I didn't say I wanted to answer it."
"..."
The man's expression suddenly darkened. When he passed by her, he grabbed her wrist and held it forcefully.
"I am worried that the killers from Xiangsimen will ambush you."
"Tsk, I thought you were going to fight for your little lover."
Chu Yuci suddenly choked up.
What happened tonight...
I really can't find fault with her.
"You're not angry at me. It seems that you don't love her much." Ye Jinxiao squinted, those deep almond eyes seemed to be able to read people's hearts.
Chu Yuci's heart was in confusion, and he couldn't tell what his feelings were.
If we say that she protects Liu Mingyue on weekdays, it is firstly because of the grace of saving her life, and secondly, she is gentle, considerate and never causes trouble.
But tonight...
He could not protect Liu Mingyue even though he knew she was wrong.
After serving in the army for many years, he has already developed the habit of being righteous and clear in rewards and punishments.
like?
Does he love Liu Mingyue?
He was a little confused and doubted himself for the first time.
"I really didn't think well about the dowry. I should have sent the butler to return it to you."
"It doesn't matter."
Ye Jinxiao didn't care.
"I will get my things back by myself."
At first, from the jade bracelet in Jing Yun's hand, she guessed that her dowry was being squandered by Liu Mingyue, and it was a waste of money to reward her servants.
I was busy dealing with Xiangsimen in the past few days and had no time to care about her.
Unexpectedly, she would go further and find someone to insult her innocence.
"Then that man tried to taint you..."
"Don't worry, even if I don't like you, I won't talk to other men privately. Not just any cat or dog can catch my eye."
Ye Jinxiao smiled sarcastically and directly insinuated that Liu Mingyue was like a cat or a dog and couldn't get on the stage.
The strange thing was that Chu Yuci was not angry. Instead, his words, "Even if I don't like you," stung his eyes.
dislike……
Seeing the cold look on her face, his thin lips were speechless, and he couldn't say a word for a long time.
"If there's nothing else, I'll go back first."
Ye Jinxiao turned around and left.
After walking for more than ten steps, Chu Yuci squeezed out a voice from the corners of his lips:
"Ye Jinxiao..."
"What?"
She looked back.
There was a bit of exhaustion and impatience on his face.
What words cannot be said at once is like squeezing out toothpaste.
Chu Yuci suddenly lost his voice.
Perhaps he has never been disliked by anyone since he was a child.
When Ye Jinxiao saw him before, every time he was like a dog seeing meat and bones, he chased, licked, held and begged for him.
Seven years.
For seven whole years, she was so enthusiastic and proactive.
Even though she has changed her temper now, he still can't get used to it for a long time.
Ye Jinxiao: “If you have something to say, say it quickly, and if you have something to say, say it quickly.”
"This king..."
He opened his mouth and saw that her face was filled with impatience.
Since when did it become a luxury to say a few more words to her?
At the same time, they also discovered that it had been a long time since they had a peaceful chat. Even talking and eating seemed as far away as a lifetime ago.
There is an indescribable blockage in the throat:
"What I mean is... let's go to the palace together tomorrow and see Grandpa Huang."
"Not going."
Ye Jinxiao's refusal was clean and clear: "I have other things to do tomorrow."
"What's up?"
He asked subconsciously, but saw her narrowing her eyes with no intention of answering, as if to remind him of his transgression.
His eyes darkened.
She must be so estranged from him?
"Grandpa Huang has recently suffered from an old illness and is often in poor health. As my granddaughter-in-law, shouldn't you go see him?"
"If I go and see him, will he get better?"
"Am I a miracle doctor or a medicine guide?"
Ye Jinxiao sneered:
"Don't use my identity as my grandson's wife to kidnap me. You, a grandson, don't care about me. Why do you want me, an outsider, to care about you?"
You have a daughter-in-law and you want to outsource your filial piety?
It's really funny.
"That's your grandfather, not my grandfather."
After that, leave directly.
"you!"
Chu Yuci ran two steps forward and saw Ye Jinxiao walking decisively without looking back, leaving only the back of his head. The annoyance in his chest and abdomen was like a fire, making his whole body impetuous.
how so?
She was obviously not like this at the beginning!
Mingyue Pavilion.
A boy ran into the house quickly.
Yuezhu's eyes lit up and she asked expectantly: "How is it? Has the prince punished the princess?"
"The birthday banquet in Liu Mansion and the looting of Mingyue Pavilion have been punished. Has the princess been taught a lesson?"
"Did you hit her?"
It's better to hit thirty boards!
No!
Back then, when Jing Yun was unconscious, the princess pushed down the concubine, held her down in the rainstorm, and gave her thirty-year-long cane punishments in public.
Tonight, if that bitch dares to cause trouble in the Liu Mansion, he should be punished with at least sixty canes!
It's better to beat that bitch to death!
The boy opened his mouth and whispered in a panic:
"No...no..."
When the prince was talking to the princess just now, he didn't mention Concubine Liu at all.
"The prince said... he wanted the princess to accompany him to the palace tomorrow to visit the Supreme Emperor. He didn't say anything else..."
"What!"
Liu Mingyue stood up suddenly.
"Your Majesty didn't punish that bitch?"
The young man knelt on the ground in fear: "Concubine, please calm down. When they were talking, the servant was hiding not far away. The prince did not... did not punish the princess."
"ah!!"
Liu Mingyue screamed angrily, flicked her sleeves and smashed the tea set on the table, and raised the table with both hands.
Bitch!
Bitch! !
Why didn't the prince punish her?
Could it be that that vixen has charmed the prince?
No!
She would never allow this to happen!
She is the only mistress of Prince Yu's Mansion!
