Chapter Thirty-Eight: I Can't Mess With Him

Now that the things have been lost and the thieves have fled, the question that is about to be faced now is how to explain to Xiahou Yichen, whether she will say it or not? Say it, Xiahou Yichen will definitely try his best to take revenge on her; not to say it, he is thoughtful, and it is difficult to guarantee that he will not find out by himself.

Confessing leniently and resisting strictly, these truths are not that she doesn't understand, but they don't work on Xiahou Yichen. When they were in the palace, although they often met, the two didn't really spend much time together and the smell of gunpowder was strong, so that they had a deep opinion on him and knew very little about him. Since she came to Yanli, she really understands the mystery hidden under Xiahou Yichen's smiling face, no matter when and where, his aura is so great that he will never allow himself to suffer a loss.

Silently remembered that she was falsely accused of stealing jade pendants before, and fortunately met Xiahou Yichen to relieve her. But this time, it was really stolen by someone else. I don't know if they are wrong, in short, after meeting Xiahou Yichen, she hasn't encountered a good thing.

"Stupid, it's really you, even if you sneak out of the house, you don't have to make such a big gift when you see this king. Before she could get up, a voice that was too familiar to be familiar suddenly sounded above her head, don't think about it, who else would dare to make fun of her without scruples like this except Xiahou Yichen.

Lin Xiaoyou woke up in an instant, got up from the ground in pain, and saw Xiahou Yichen standing in front of him with Dongfan's hands. As for when she came and how long she had been watching, she had no idea at all.

"Well, you're here too, what a coincidence. I don't know if it's because of the loss of the jade pendant and the guilt of being a thief, Lin Xiaoyou didn't fight back against his teasing for the first time, and pretended to say hello as if nothing happened.

Xiahou Yichen was stunned by Lin Xiaoyu's abnormal attitude for a while, and wondered when his princess had changed her temperament. It's good not to compete with him, and he even took the initiative to say hello to him. This subtle change suddenly made him not very accustomed to it, and he didn't say anything, but his eyes were obviously a little more inquisitive.

He was originally taking Dongfan around to check the progress of disaster relief, but he inadvertently bumped into the figure that ran and fell. With just one glance, he knew who it was, and even the painful look he had in his eyes. If it is said that the person who should not appear and the thing that should not happen are seen by him at the same time, if it is a coincidence, it is indeed counted. "Why are you here?" it took a long time to ask the question in his heart.

"That, how to say it, I thought that the prince was worried about the labor of the people, so I specially boiled some black rice porridge and brought it to you. Lin Xiaoyou replied quite calmly with an innocent expression. She turned to the side and patted the dust on her body to avoid looking at her gaze.

"Hahahaha, you can also make porridge? Are you sure you won't poison people if you eat it? Xiahou Yichen laughed loudly, his peerless face became more and more bewitching at this moment, I don't know if he was really happy or fake happy, but the questioning look showed that he didn't believe it. You must know that since Lin Xiaoyou became his personal attendant, he has taken care of his diet and daily life in a mess, and nothing has been done to his heart's content. In addition, she also finds fault with him from time to time, even if she really cooks porridge for him, it will definitely not be anything good.

Lin Xiaoyou said with a smile: "I'm not like the prince, I have been pampered and served by others since I was a child, and I have always done it myself. ”

"Oh, yes? What about that thing?"

Sure enough, two questions in a row fully prove that the reason for the absence of evidence is insufficient. Only then did she remember that her original intention was to deliver something, but because an accident on the road disrupted her plan, the thing was not in her hand now. couldn't help but secretly complain, and said with some lack of confidence: "Oh, it seems to be in Duoduo." ”

"Well, what about her?"

Facing Xiahou Yichen's repeated questions, Lin Xiaoyou was a little overwhelmed, and he didn't have time to think about it, so he replied casually: "I forgot something when I went out in a hurry, so I asked her to go back and get it." As soon as the words came out, he immediately regretted it, since he showed that he was here to send him something, how could he forget to bring it, isn't this lifting a stone to shoot himself in the foot?

Looking at Lin Xiaoyu's embarrassed appearance, the corners of Xiahou Yichen's mouth still twitched with a smile, and the more he talked, the more bizarre it became, he really had never heard of such a vulgar reason.

One wrong step, one wrong step, Lin Xiaoyou was stared at by that sharp gaze and felt uncomfortable, only to feel that his head was blank, as if he was being pulled by his little tail, struggling to do the last battle of the trapped beast. I never thought that she would also make low-level mistakes today, and it was better to find a crack in the ground to get into it than to make a fool of herself in front of Xiahou Yichen and be teased by him like a doll.

Silence, silence, or silence, waiting for Xiahou Yichen's final judgment in a weak heart. She had expected to wait for a storm of accusations or ridicule, but the expected scenario did not appear, and her suffocating silence ended in Xiahou Yichen's brief words of relief. "Go back if you're okay! ”

She herself was stunned, Xiahou Yichen did not find the lost jade pendant, did not expose her lies, and did not use it to tease her. The total qiΔ“ made her breathe a sigh of relief at this moment. finally concealed the past, didn't dare to stay outside, and followed Xiahou Yichen back in a gloomy way. On a day of grievance, shouldn't she reflect on it, and harm others to herself.

When he returned to his residence, he saw the two guards kneeling respectfully in the courtyard, and when he saw them returning, he asked for disposition in unison. Dongfan's face turned cold, and he stepped forward and reprimanded: "You are so bold, you dare to disobey the prince's order privately, what should you do and act according to the rules!"

"Yes. The two responded in unison. Without any explanation, he quickly and neatly pulled out the dagger on his body and swung it down at his left hand.

"Wait. Seeing this, Lin Xiaoyou was full of guilt, and hurriedly shouted to stop him. Even if you are unlucky, how can you affect others, while Xiahou Yichen has not yet expressed his position, he stepped forward and said: "Don't blame them for today's incident, they are forced to let me out, if the prince really wants to punish me, punish me." ”

The two guards didn't expect Lin Xiaoyou to intercede for them, so they glanced at each other and stopped their movements in confusion.

"What do you say?" Xiahou Yichen hooked the corners of his mouth and asked slowly.

Seeing that Xiahou Yichen's tone was not the slightest unpleasant, Lin Xiaoyou smiled: "Actually, it's nothing, it's just a small question I asked them, if you can't answer it, you have to listen to my arrangement, as a quid pro quo." Let them let me out, and when I get back, I'll tell them the answer. Willing to gamble and lose, they are all people who keep their promises, and they have no choice but to disobey your orders. ”

Xiahou Yichen was already in a good mood, but when he heard Lin Xiaoyu say this, he suddenly became interested. He wanted to see what could stump his two bodyguards at the same time, even if he disobeyed his orders. "Tell me about it. ”

"If you want me to say yes, but you have to promise me that you will forgive them this time. Lin Xiaoyou saw the opportunity to talk to him about the conditions.

"If you can say it. Xiahou Yichen replied nonchalantly, and did not directly accept her conditions. The implication is that if you don't say it well, then a qiΔ“ is still the same.

Lin Xiaoyou snorted unhappily, and said angrily: "I asked them, as your dutiful guards, what is the most important thing to them? ”

"Isn't it?" Xiahou Yichen asked with some puzzlement.

"Of course not. Lin Xiaoyu denied it with reason. "Your safety, your orders are only part of it. What really matters is to follow your beliefs, and with it, they will pay attention to your safety, obey your commands, and be born and die for you. ”

Xiahou Yichen looked at Lin Xiaoyou in a daze and said his answer with a high spirit, and his heart was inexplicably in a trance. I never thought that these words would come out of her mouth, who didn't understand the world. Suddenly, I couldn't help but secretly guess, "And what is her belief?"

After Lin Xiaoyou finished speaking, he didn't notice the surprise on everyone's faces, and couldn't wait to chase after Xiahou Yichen and say, "Lord Wang, look at this matter・・・・・・"

Damn, what was he thinking, when did he start caring about what other people were thinking, and the other party was still a woman who didn't have a good impression of him. Xiahou Yichen, who reacted, was a little annoyed, and a trace of imperceptible loss crossed his heart. It wasn't until Lin Xiaoyu's flower-like smile was about to lose color that he responded lightly, "Don't take it as an example." ”

After receiving Xiahou Yichen's pardon, Lin Xiaoyu breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly congratulated himself that the disaster he had caused did not affect others. He turned to the two kneeling guards and said, "Okay, okay, all of you get up, don't kneel." ”

"Thank you for your magnanimity, thank you to the princess for her advice, and your subordinates will definitely follow you to the death, and there will be no two hearts. The two of them kowtowed knowingly and thanked each other before getting up gently.

Xiahou Yichen snorted lightly, "Wait a minute." ”

As soon as the matter was resolved, the sudden words made Lin Xiaoyou's heart beat to his throat again, and he mistakenly thought that Xiahou Yichen had repented, and hurriedly said: "The prince is full of words, how can he go back on his word!"

"How did this king go back on his word, I only promised you to accept the punishment for them, but I did not say that I would pardon them for their innocence. Xiahou Yichen said with a smile, and he didn't plan to stop there.

She was really happy too early, and her gentle words were like a bucket of cold water splashed down, which suddenly made Lin Xiaoyou cold from head to toe. The fox, a typical smiling fox, is cunning and fickle, unruly, and no one can easily catch his erratic mind.

"Damn scoundrel" Lin Xiaoyou secretly cursed in his heart, knowing that he would not be so kind to let himself go. Although she was not afraid of him, after all, she was also the first to be at fault, and even if she was justified, she lost three points. At this time, Lin Xiaoyou couldn't be arrogant, and immediately cheered up his spirit, and asked vigilantly: "Then what do you want?"

was obviously afraid, but he still had to pretend to be righteous and awe-inspiring and looked at death as home, Xiahou Yichen was completely amused. Turning his head sideways, he resisted the urge to laugh, put on a thoughtful expression and said, "Let King Ben think about it." ”
