"So, someone has the title of oiran, but he doesn't want to accept guests. I don't know where he can get the dignity to continue to stay."
Seeing the contemptuous looks on their faces, the attendant opened his mouth and couldn't help but want to step forward to refute, but was stopped by his own master.
Yan Xi raised her eyes and glanced at everyone, her tone calm.
"Why should I stay here?"
The man retorted without thinking.
"Where else can you go if you don't stay? Are you still thinking that you can be taken away by other nobles?"
As he spoke, he looked up and down at the person in front of him, suppressed the jealousy in his heart, and then couldn't help but gloat.
Being rejected by the Crown Princess, those noble ladies would not take the risk of taking someone as a concubine, and they would have to stay here to serve someone for the rest of their lives.
Yan Xi stared at him for a few seconds, then calmly looked away.
"But I have escaped from slavery, why not be an ordinary person."
Everyone was stunned, and suddenly remembered that the other party was redeemed by the Crown Princess when they first met, and their hearts suddenly felt sour.
Why don't they have that kind of luck.
The person who was arguing with him was very angry. Seeing that he always looked aloof, he couldn't help but step forward.
But before he even touched the hem of his clothes, his vision went dark, and by the time he realized what he was doing, he had already been carried away and thrown away.
Looking at the few people who suddenly appeared in the scene, the young masters were a little surprised and confused.
In this outfit, he should be a palace guard. Why are they here? Could it be that someone has committed a crime?
Without waiting for them to ask, they turned around and saluted Yan Xi.
"His Highness has an order that no one with bad intentions can get close to you. I hope you will forgive me."
Yan Xi was slightly startled. After realizing that this was the person the little girl had left for him, she couldn't help but curl her lips.
The fingers hidden in his sleeves curled and he shook his head.
"It's okay, thank you for your hard work, adults."
"I will be protecting you secretly for a while, just call me if you need me."
After he finished speaking, he bowed respectfully and disappeared.
Only then did the others realize that this was not only a bodyguard, but also a secret guard trained by His Highness.
Even secret guards were sent to protect him. Those who originally thought he would fall out of favor only felt their faces hurt from being beaten.
Biting their lips angrily, they did not dare to continue to find trouble, took their things and turned around to leave.
It wasn't until he returned to his room that the attendant could not help but speak happily.
"Sir, His Highness actually sent secret guards to protect you. Now you no longer have to worry about those young masters secretly causing trouble."
After thinking for a while, he added with bright eyes.
"Then when you go to see His Highness the Third Prince tomorrow..."
Halfway through his words, he suddenly remembered something and silently stopped talking.
With the temperament of his young master, he would not be willing to involve His Highness in this matter.
While thinking about it, he carefully raised his eyes and observed the other person's expression.
Although his young master still reads and practices calligraphy as usual these days, he always loses sight of something occasionally, which makes him rarely even dare to mention His Highness's name.
It was still raining heavily outside, and the sky was dark, as if there was a bit of moisture in the air.
At this moment, Yan Xi was standing by the window. The rain curtain obscured his beauty, making him look a little lonely.
After a while, the attendant heard his voice, low and vague.
"His Highness cannot know about this matter."
The attendant nodded and turned to discuss with the adults.
If His Highness cannot be informed, then these secret guards must not be brought with them tomorrow.
What's more, it is the territory of His Highness the Third. If I really take it with me, I am afraid that the other party will find it and cause trouble to His Highness.
only……
Thinking of His Highness's temperament, the attendant sighed worriedly.
