Chapter 18 (18)
The next day, Su Jie woke up very early, the sun had not risen at that time, Su Jie, who had just woken up, suddenly found that there was a person lying next to him, and he couldn't help but be stunned, and after a closer look, he recognized that the person lying next to him was Ruiwang Xiao Shengnian.
Xiao Shengnian breathed evenly, his eyelashes were as black as ink, but they were as soft as feathers, his facial features were quiet and soft, but his brows were slightly wrinkled, as if there was something annoying, Su Jie saw him lying beside him in clothes, and a burst of emotion rose in his heart.
Lord Rui actually slept next to him, which made Su Jie a little unexpected.
Why is Xiao Shengnian so good to himself?
It is rumored that Prince Rui is gentle and friendly, and it is true. Xiao Shengnian is careful and considerate, handsome and noble, and he usually treats people generously and tolerantly, so that people can't find fault with him, and it is no wonder that his reputation is the best.
Su Jie was staring at Xiao Shengnian's sleeping face, and suddenly, King Rui opened his eyes.
Xiao Shengnian, who had just woken up, frowned slightly, his gaze was as far away as the clouds floating in the sky, deep as the boundless sea, and his eyes were as calm as a knife and as sharp as a knife. Under such a pair of eyes, anyone can't help but break out in a cold sweat.
Even if Su Jie was used to seeing the sword light and sword shadow, he couldn't help but be stared at a little hairy by such a pair of eyes.
Fortunately, Xiao Shengnian's eyes returned to their usual gentleness in the next moment, his temperament was elegant and modest, he naturally bent his lips, and smiled at Su Jie: "Morning, Nian Xuan." ”
Maybe it's because he just got up, this is the first time Xiao Shengnian has shown a real gentle look, even if Xiao Shengnian in the past smiled gently, his eyes will always be indifferent and distant.
"Early. Su Jie smiled silently, he liked this feeling very much, when he opened his eyes for the first time in the morning, although he saw that it was not King Qin, Xiao Shengnian's warm smile was like a fresh and bright after the first break of the shower, and the air seemed to be warm under such a smile.
A person has been strong for a long time, and occasionally wants to have a shoulder that can be relied on, and Su Jie has faced too much alone, he is a sharp blade in the hands of King Qin, but he is also a person of flesh and blood, so when he meets the gentle Xiao Shengnian, Su Jie will inevitably have moving emotions, from the time when Prince Rui personally gave medicine to Su Jie, Su Jie's heart has left the shadow of King Rui.
Of course, these subtle touches were only in the bud, so weak that Su Jie didn't realize the changes in his heart.
"Do you feel better?" Xiao Shengnian asked as he sat up and put on his black boots.
Su Jie nodded: "It's much better." ”
Su Jie didn't ask who the person who poisoned him last night was, he remembered that it was Xiao Shengnian who fed him the antidote last night, which means that Xiao Shengnian must know very well what kind of poison he has, plus Xiao Shengnian didn't talk about his poisoning today, Su Jie vaguely guessed what Xiao Shengnian must know, and Xiao Shengnian was not willing to hold the poisoner responsible.
Thinking about it a little deeper, the person most likely to be poisoned is King Xian, King Xian is Xiao Shengnian's brother, he can freely enter and leave King Rui's mansion, poisoning the food is completely trivial, plus Su Jie also offended King Xian, Xiao Shengnian did not pursue the poisoning, combined with these points, Su Jie deduced that the person who poisoned himself was King Xian.
However, he was not sure whether his guess was correct or not, he could only say that he doubted it, after all, he had no evidence.
