The man broke free from Luo Yao's hand and hurriedly explained to Luo Yao, "I'm not stealing your money, I'm borrowing it from you. When I win the money, I will return it to you."
Luo Yao looked up at the gambling house and couldn't help but roll her eyes at him.
The man in front of me is none other than the Fourth Prince Xiao Ziyi!
She had long heard that the emperor's four princes were all strange. After meeting Xiao Ziyi today, she finally understood.
Xiao Ziyi loved gambling, and his biggest hobby on weekdays was to get the eunuchs in the palace to gamble. After being banned by the emperor, he came to the gambling shop outside the palace to gamble.
Nine times out of ten you lose.
She snatched her money bag from Xiao Ziyi's hands and warned in a deep voice: "If you don't learn well at a young age, how can you learn gambling? Go back and study hard, don't stay idle all day long."
Xiao Ziyi frowned in dissatisfaction and muttered in a low voice: "Why do you speak with the same tone as my emperor...brother-in-law?"
His brother-in-law is Xiao Yan.
"Don't compare me with that kind of person." Luo Yao also responded in a low voice.
"What did you say?"
"nothing."
She rolled her eyes at Xiao Ziyi again. She had other things to do and was too lazy to talk to Xiao Ziyi.
As soon as she walked away, Xiao Ziyi caught up with her, chattering beside her.
"Brother, just lend me some money. I will pay you back if I win."
Luo Yao ignored him.
"I'll pay you back double."
Luo Yao still ignored it.
"Borrow ten taels and pay back fifty taels, okay?"
Luo Yao stopped angrily and turned around to fight back at him, "Are you so sure that you will win money instead of losing everything?"
"Impossible! I believe in my own strength." Xiao Ziyi promised, patting his chest.
Luo Yao didn't believe what he said at all, and she was even more unwilling to use her little remaining money to waste money.
She didn't agree and kept walking.
Xiao Ziyi refused to give up and followed her.
Luo Yao focused on avoiding Xiao Ziyi, and Xiao Ziyi focused on persuading her. The two of them walked with their heads down, not even noticing the carriage coming straight towards them.
Seeing that the carriage was about to hit them, the driver stopped the carriage in time.
The carriage jolted violently, startling the people in the carriage. The curtain opened and a familiar face appeared in front of them.
Why is it Xiao Yan!
Luo Yao subconsciously wanted to hide, but when she came to her senses and thought that she had a mask and was dressing up as a man, she suddenly felt much calmer.
Not wanting to have too much contact with Xiao Yan, she was about to leave when Xiao Ziyi grabbed her arm and pointed at Xiao Yan to introduce her.
"This is the uncle I told you. Isn't my uncle very handsome?"
You are so handsome, let me go quickly!
Seeing that she didn't speak, Xiao Ziyi pointed at her and said to Xiao Yan: "Uncle, this is my friend. I really didn't go to the gambling house. My friend and I were planning to go to the bookstore."
"You still want to go to the bookstore?" Xiao Yan on the carriage looked unconvinced.
Xiao Ziyi nodded hurriedly, "Really, if you don't believe me, just ask my friends."
After saying that, Xiao Ziyi pinched Luo Yao's arm and motioned for her to cooperate with him.
She is really speechless!
I didn't look at the almanac when I went out today, so I came across this thing!
Xiao Yan cast his eyes on Luo Yao and frowned slightly when he saw the mask on her face.
"What is the origin of this friend of yours who wears a mask when he goes out?"
Xiao Ziyi turned to look at her, somewhat unable to answer, and hurriedly motioned for her to answer with his eyes.
She said in a rough voice, "This half of my face was injured when I was a child, so I always wear a mask."
"Really hurt?" Xiao Yan asked again.
"Can I still lie to you?" Luo Yao asked coldly.
Xiao Yan's face darkened because of her attitude.
Xiao Ziyi whispered in her ear, "Be polite to my uncle."
cut!
You're so polite.
She rolled her eyes at Xiao Yan dissatisfied, and threw away Xiao Ziyi's hand impatiently, "Your own uncle, you can deal with it yourself, don't take me with you."
After saying that, she turned around and left.
As soon as he took a step, Xiao Yan's cold voice came from behind.
"stop!"
She pretended not to hear Xiao Yan's voice and continued walking forward.
Xiao Yan jumped from the carriage, landed in front of her, and looked at her with an interrogating look, "Are you leaving before you finish speaking?"
"You are his uncle, not mine. It seems that you and I have nothing to say."
This familiar tone of voice made Xiao Yan subconsciously think of Luo Yao.
The person in front of him was clearly dressed as a man. Why did he think of Luo Yao?
"You are the one who brings Xiao Ziyi here all day long?" Xiao Yan asked.
What and what?
She frowned dissatisfied.
Xiao Ziyi, who was not far away, saw that Xiao Yan was settling a score with Luo Yao. He realized something was wrong and ran away as soon as the sole of his foot slipped.
Seeing this, Wuhen hurriedly said, "Four... Young Master has run away."
Xiao Yan turned around, where was Xiao Ziyi's figure behind him?
He turned around again and glared at Luo Yao angrily, "Where is Xiao Ziyiren?"
"how could I know?"
He couldn't manage Xiao Ziyi well, and now he was asking her in turn.
You must be seriously ill!
Not wanting to pay attention to Xiao Yan anymore, she took steps to leave.
Xiao Yan put his hand on her shoulder and stopped her: "You are not allowed to leave."
If you tell me not to leave, I won’t leave?
Treating his words as air, Luo Yao quickened her pace.
Xiao Yan caught up with her, grabbed her shoulders, and brought her to him.
"What on earth do you want to do?"
His thin lips moved, "Get Xiao Ziyi back and you can leave."
"..."
I really didn’t look at the almanac when I went out today!
First, the money bag was snatched away by Xiao Ziyi, and now Xiao Ziyi sent it to Xiao Yan.
What a sin!
She had a wound on her arm. In order not to be recognized by him, she couldn't confront him head-on.
Because Xiao Ziyi suddenly ran away, Luo Yao had no choice but to get on Xiao Yan's carriage and was taken by him to find Xiao Ziyi.
Xiao Yan took her to several gambling houses one after another, but couldn't see Xiao Ziyi's figure, and he became a little impatient.
"Where did he go?" Xiao Yan asked.
"I'm not the roundworm in his stomach, how do I know where he will go?"
After she finished speaking, she angrily turned her head outside the carriage.
She was so angry.
While he was not doing anything serious, he ran into Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan sat in the carriage, folded his arms and warned: "If you can't find Xiao Ziyi today, don't even think about leaving."
"Why are you detaining me?"
He glanced at her coldly, not intending to give her a reasonable explanation.
The carriage continued to drive, and after passing through a few streets, the carriage suddenly stopped.
Wuhen said to Xiao Yan in the carriage: "Peony is here."
The peony next to Liu Yinyin?
What is she here to do?
As soon as Xiao Yang opened the curtain of the carriage, Mudan said with a tearful voice: "My lady has been having a fever today and she keeps shouting the prince's name. Please go back and see the lady!"
It turns out that Liu Yinyin is not dead yet!
The attack was gentle last time.
He looked at Luo Yao in the carriage.
Meeting his gaze, Luo Yao couldn't help but remind him: "Since the prince has something to do, he should go back to his house first. We will find Xiao Ziyi tomorrow."
"You come back to Prince Li's Mansion with me!"
Are you kidding me?
She finally escaped from Prince Li's Mansion, and now she wants to go back?
