Hearing Xiao Shengxian's question, Xiao Shengnian's tea drinking action paused slightly, and his quiet black eyes rippled slightly, like a lake blown by the wind, rippling gentle ripples layer by layer.

His mind seemed to have the image of the handsome young man who had been quietly hanging his eyes in the tub last night...... This memory made Xiao Shengnian's heart have a peculiar feeling - it seems, slightly moved?

But in the next second, Xiao Shengnian self-denied this idea, the corners of his lips hooked, and he regained his calm and elegant appearance, and was about to speak, but he heard Xiao Shengxian talking to himself.

"I must go and meet that young man in a moment, maybe I can take the opportunity to test whether he was sent by other forces to approach the palace on purpose. You're right, right? Xiao Shengxian took a sip of tea unhurriedly.

"Not necessarily. Immersed in a light and cool voice, it sounded calmly, and Xiao Shengnian's eyes had an absolutely confident glow.

"Why?" asked Xiao Shengxian.

"Because ......" stopped. Xiao Shengnian's eyes reflected the teacup in his hand.

Because the boy belongs to him, what if he is sent by another force?

"Because of what?" Xiao Shengxian originally pricked up his ears, but who expected that his imperial brother only said two words and then disappeared, which made him feel slightly unhappy.

"You don't need to know why. Xiao Shengnian drank all the tea in the cup and replied lightly.

――――――――

"Childe, the prince sent someone to bring Childe's clothes. Yujiang's voice sounded outside the door.

"Come in. Su Jie's dressing action paused slightly, and said.

Yujiang pushed the door in.

Su Jie glanced back at the clothes he had just delivered, his brows furrowed, why did he send a red dress?

Su Jie hated red, a color that always reminded him of blood.

However, since it was arranged by Xiao Shengnian, he could only accept it unconditionally, this feeling of being restricted in everything...... It really made Su Jie very uncomfortable.

Regardless of the color, the clothes sent by Xiao Shengnian are still very good, the red clothes are as bright as blood and the embroidery is exquisite, every silk thread seems to have been accurately calculated and measured, the red fabric is soft and luxurious, and there is even a faint fragrance?

Su Jie sniffed the clothes in his hand with a strange expression.

Seeing this, Yujiang couldn't help but ask, "Childe, is there anything wrong with this new dress?"

"Nothing. Su Jie shook his head, put on his shirt neatly, and looked in the mirror after changing, and even he couldn't help but be stunned.

The young man's eyebrows in the mirror are picturesque, his eyes are as bright as dazzling stars, the black hair that has not had time to comb is pouring like a waterfall, and the skin against the background is whiter like jade.

Su Jie bent his eyes and smiled, and the handsome young man in the mirror also smiled with red lips and white teeth, as if there was a bright fire, shining brightly.

Su Jie was speechless in the mirror for a while, and Yujiang exclaimed on the side: "Childe, you are so beautiful in red." ”

"Heh......" Su Jie chuckled, his eyebrows were a little more charming, he stretched out his hand to touch the cold mirror, but his voice was clear and lonely: "Yes...... I'm kind of liking myself......"

Yujiang blinked, because Su Jie's voice was almost murmuring, so he didn't hear Su Jie's words.

"Childe, what did you say?"

"It's fine. Su Jie smiled, walked to the side of the bed, and habitually reached out to touch the jade pendant under the pillow, but he didn't touch anything.

What about the jade pendant?

Su Jie's face did not show a single bit, but he was shocked in his heart, and suddenly remembered that last night, before going to the study to find Prince Rui, he put the jade pendant under the pillow in the guest room, no wonder he didn't touch the jade pendant now.
