Chapter XIII Agreements
"Hey" In the courtyard, Lin Xiaoyou sat alone on the stone bench in the courtyard and sighed silently at the sky. Since returning to Lin Mansion, her life has been like a caged bird, longing for the free sky and living as she likes, but she has been caught in a sudden turn and can't fly out.
Now that many days have passed since the third year of junior high school, she has escaped forced marriage and lost her mother forever, which is the grief and regret of her life. She thought about everything too simply, thinking that it would be okay to run away at night, but she didn't know what people had made up their minds about, so naturally she wouldn't let go of their mother and son so lightly, if it weren't for her, her mother wouldn't have died.
Having nothing should be like what she is now, her mother left her, her brother didn't care about her, she had no home, no identity, no status. Revenge is really not as easy as imagined!
What should I do? Lin Xiaoyou was distressed. In addition to not being able to speak, her body is already fine, and she stays here every day, and she can't understand the situation outside. I heard that the marriage of the Lin Mansion is still going on as usual, could it be that they finally married Lin Qingyue? And Sister Lan, I don't know if she was caught? There are so many things waiting for her, she can't waste time?
"Miss, you have put away this jade pendant, don't lose it. Xiangqing interrupted her musings as she handed over the jade pendant she had been carrying with her.
Lin Xiaoyou took a look at it, and played with it in her hand, the crystal clear jade, the lubricated and comfortable feel, it seemed to be the only valuable thing on her body. couldn't help but smile and think, "She's not nothing, at least she still has this baby with her." As the saying goes, there is no endless road, no matter how difficult it is, she must find a chance to take revenge!"
"Miss, you're finally smiling. It seems that the prince really likes Miss, and the personal jade pendant has also been transferred to Miss. Xiangqing praised unknowingly. As a maid of the palace, she knows very well that her master is the most sought-after sweetheart of all women, and she has never really cared about any woman, so she is really a little impressed by Lin Xiaoyou.
Xiangqing praised herself, but she didn't know that these words directly hit Lin Xiaoyu's nerves. Hearing this, does this mean that this jade pendant belongs to Xiahou Yichen? Lin Xiaoyu repeatedly recalled the fragrance in his heart, and came up with such an answer.
Holding the jade pendant here and there, thinking about the name Xiahou Yichen, there is also a Chen character in the jade pendant. made her believe a little, after all, Xiangqing had no reason to lie to her. But in a blink of an eye, she thought about it again, this jade pendant was obtained after she rescued a man in black on the mountain!
I remember that she fell asleep in a daze after saving someone that day, and was later woken up by her senior brother and found that the man in black was gone, holding this jade pendant in her hand, and she hadn't actually seen what the man in black looked like. If this jade pendant is Xiahou Yichen's, then is he the person she saved?
And before he said that he didn't want to owe favors, Lin Xiaoyou thought about the things before and after, and became more and more sure of these facts. It seems that this world is still wonderful, in just over a month, her life has changed dramatically, and it is so coincidental that the person she saved saved her in turn.
By the way, Lin Xiaoyou realized that she had only seen Xiahou Yichen on the day she woke up, and that person had not come to see her these days. Also, I live in someone else's bedroom now, but I am a little anti-guest-oriented, so it's time to leave.
After thinking for a while, he quickly denied it: "No, senior brother doesn't know where it is, how can he go back to Miling Mountain if he has not revenged, in case the Lin family sends someone there, she will not be arrested again, and there is nowhere else to go after thinking about it." ”
Lin Xiaoyou calculated and analyzed the situation in front of him in his heart, Xiangqing took a plate of snacks and put them on the stone table, looked at Lin Xiaoyou, who was holding the jade pendant with both hands, smiled and said, "Miss, this is the dim sum that the prince asked me to send, try it!"
Look at the dim sum, look at the fragrance. His eyes lit up, and he stood up and stared at the incense.
Xiangqing was uncomfortable with Lin Xiaoyou's smiling expression, touched her face with her hand and said, "Miss, is there anything on my face?"
Lin Xiaoyou shook her head, grabbed Xiangqing's arm excitedly, and asked with her mouth: "Xiahou Yichen, where is Xiahou Yichen?" Looking at Xiangqing, she finally thought of an idea, if she stayed in the palace as a maid, she could use Xiahou Yichen's strength to find an opportunity to take revenge. Although she knows that there is no shortage of maids in the palace, let alone revenge and cause trouble for a servant, how can she know the result if she doesn't try?"
"Ah, the little young lady slave doesn't know what you're talking about?" Xiangqing was stunned by the sudden move.
Lin Xiaoyou consciously shut up, knowing that she was talking too much, and she couldn't understand what she was saying. I personally went to the house and took out a pen and paper and wrote: "Xiahou Yichen." ”
Xiangqing suddenly realized and said, "Oh, it turns out that you are asking the prince, he is in the study now!"
Hearing the answer, Lin Xiaoyou turned around and left, and after walking a few steps, thinking that he didn't know the way to the study, he turned back and pulled incense to take her.
"Hey, Miss, the prince doesn't like others to break into the study. "Where is Lin Xiaoyu willing to listen, in order to take revenge, he will break if he doesn't break in.
Xiahou Yichen's study is not far away, on the other side of the Shihuan Courtyard, passing through the middle garden.
"What's the matter?" Hearing the noise outside, Xiahou Yichen, who was sitting in front of the desk reading a book, asked aloud.
Xiangqing pushed the door in and said, "It's Miss She"
Xiahou Yichen waved his hand to let Xiangqing retreat, and said, "Come in, what are you looking for this king?"
Walking into the study, there is a marble stone table in front of it, and some books and pen, ink, paper, and inkstones are neatly stacked on both sides. Not far from the stone case, a small incense burner was constantly emitting a scented smoke. There is a soft couch on the right, and the embroidered pillow quilt cover is quietly stacked on one side, and the overall layout is elegant and exquisite.
Looking at Lin Xiaoyou who was standing in front of the stone case in a daze, Xiahou Yichen raised his eyes and asked, "If you have something, just say it!" Then he picked up the paper and pen next to him and put it on the other side of the stone case, and asked Lin Xiaoyou to write it out.
Lifting the pen, Lin Xiaoyu's head suddenly became as blank as the paper in front of her, and she felt that her far-fetched reasons made her unable to speak. But now she has no choice but to take revenge. After struggling for a long time, he wrote: "I want to stay in the palace as a maid?"
Xiahou Yichen chuckled lightly and asked, "Reason?"
Thinking of my mother's affairs, I still felt a faint pain in my heart, and I couldn't let people see the clues, so I wrote: "There is nowhere to go." ”
"It's as simple as that?"
Facing Xiahou Yichen's questioning, Lin Xiaoyou nodded weakly, after experiencing these things, she understood a truth, she must be reserved in life and work, otherwise it will be herself who suffers. If she told the truth, how could Xiahou Yichen leave a person who wanted to use him to cause trouble.
"Since you don't want to say it, forget it. I thought that if you were willing to tell me the purpose, maybe this king could help you. ”
As smart as Xiahou Yichen, where would he believe Lin Xiaoyu's words so simply, from the first encounter to the present, Lin Xiaoyou's transformation, he can see it in his eyes. Since she has the courage to escape from marriage and is unwilling to accept the life she has been arranged, at least it shows that she has the life she longs for. Now I uncharacteristically want to stay in the house and be a maid, what is my intention.
Sure enough, her words were not believed, what should she do? Did she say it or not? At the moment, she really had no way out, and if she said that she might have a chance, not to mention that Xiahou Yichen didn't seem to give her a chance at all. Lin Xiaoyou thought about it for a long time, made up his mind to gamble once, and wrote: "Avenge your mother!"
After Xiahou Yichen saw it, he stood up and walked to the window and said, "You did save this king once before, and now this king has also saved you once, which can be regarded as a flattening of the situation." What reason is there to help you get revenge and do some thankless work!"
A few words clearly showed his attitude, and Lin Xiaoyou smiled bitterly. yes, why? That's what she thinks, otherwise it wouldn't be so hard to speak. Now that the answer has been obtained, there is no need to say that there must be other ways to not work on this road. Thinking of this, Lin Xiaoyou got up and put the jade pendant on the stone case.
Just as he was about to go out, Xiahou Yichen said again: "Slow, if you really want to take revenge, right now this king can give you a chance, it depends on whether you are willing or not?"
Hearing that there was a way, Lin Xiaoyou stopped, with a hint of surprise on his face, and asked Xiahou Yichen to continue.
"It's very simple, we join forces, you cooperate with this king to play a scene, and we pretend to be married. In this way, you are the princess, which can help you take revenge and solve the king's troubles. If you don't want to be reluctant or reluctant, it doesn't matter if this king is there, it's hard for you to say. Xiahou Yichen said as he paid attention to Lin Xiaoyu's reaction.
Since ancient times, the marriages of the royal family have been based on politics, and if you want to be spared, the only way to do this is to join forces with Lin Xiaoyu, who has no background. With Lin Xiaoyu's hand, Lin Lanhai can also be contained.
Looking at Lin Xiaoyou, who was silent, Xiahou Yichen's eyes were half-narrowed, and he approached and smiled: "How is it?" rest assured, this king has always done things fairly and will not treat you badly. If you don't worry, let's set up a note to prove it. ”
If it weren't for the forced marriage of the Lin Mansion, she would have to fall to such a point, indeed, as Xiahou Yichen said, she had no choice at all. But she has been thinking of her senior brother in her heart, and she took revenge as a princess, how could she believe her innocence when she saw her senior brother in the future.
I didn't know what to do, and Zhang Yingfu, the housekeeper of the palace outside, shouted: "Lord, the emperor has arrived with Master Yi." ”
"Hey trouble, I know Uncle Zhang, you go and deal with it first, and this king will wait for the past. Xiahou Yichen said impatiently.
"Hurry up, this king doesn't have time to spend with you now, what do you think?" The butler left, Xiahou Yichen urged Lin Xiaoyu.
Sighing, Lin Xiaoyou nodded and agreed, taking revenge first, senior brother will definitely understand her distress.
The world is changeable, no one could have imagined that at this point, the fate of her and Xiahou Yichen will be involved from then on.
