3. Reputation

"I didn't expect to meet Miss Xia here, it's fate!" Xuanyuan Che slowly walked towards Xia Yao and stopped about a meter away from her, keeping a distance not far away.

This encounter is something that Xia Yao did not expect, the fragrance of osmanthus wafting not far away, Xia Yao carefully recalled the few memories in the book, and only then found a plot in the corner, it seems that Xuanyuan Che and his first love met in a osmanthus forest, and now it seems that this is this place.

Xia Yao felt bitter in her heart, she was most afraid of withdrawing from the plot now, death is not terrible, what is terrible is that he is worse than death in the hands of Xuanyuan Che.

But on the surface, Xia Yao didn't want to tear his face with Xuanyuan Che, so he could only pretend not to know his true identity, "I don't know what is the matter of Yuan Gongzi here?" ”

Xuanyuan Che stared at Xia Yao's face, his expression became in a trance, as if he was chasing someone through her, "I've heard about you, I can't see that Miss Xia is a woman, and she can do things that men don't dare to do, which really makes me admire." ”

Xia Yao lowered her eyes and considered her words, "Yuan Gongzi laughed, I just did it selfishly." ”

"Oh!" Xuanyuan Che let out a word of surprise, and a look of curiosity rose in his eyes, "Why did Miss Xia say this?" ”

Xia Yao bent down and bowed to the place of the palace with his hands together, and then raised his head, his face was already full of gratitude, "It is a big crime for me to resist the will, the emperor is not guilty of the past, and he is even willing to fulfill my wishes, it is really magnanimous, the Ming Jun who is for the people is a model for my generation to learn." ”

Xuanyuan Che was puzzled, "What does this have to do with your selfishness?" ”

Xia Yao squinted, and there seemed to be a figure floating not far away, "Because of my own selfish feelings, the emperor, as well as the three princes and the five princes, were embarrassed, and even almost put the entire family on the brink of life and death, although it was not what I wanted, but it did rise because of me." You say, "Am I not being selfish?" She lowered her head, and from Xuanyuan Che's angle, she could only see half of her beautiful cheeks.

I saw her continue to sigh: "I only hope that the Third Highness will not have a gap with the Fifth Highness because of my actions and destroy the brotherly relationship." ”

The air around was silent for a while, and it wasn't until the slightly childish voice of the fifth prince was broken that Xuanyuan Luo walked over from the corner not far away, and spoke to Chao Xuanyuan Che first, "I didn't expect the third brother to be here." ”

Then his gaze fell on Xia Yao's face, "Yao'er and Third Brother...... Know? ”

saw Xia Yao's blank face, "Third brother? After two seconds, he saluted Xuanyuan Che in a panic, "The courtiers have seen the Third Highness. Then he lowered his head with an embarrassed face, not daring to look at the two people on the side.

Xuanyuan Luo looked at Xia Yao carefully for two seconds before asking, "What's going on?" ”

Xia Yao quickly raised her head and glanced at the two of them, lowered her head for a long time and couldn't speak, "This ...... This ......"

Xuanyuan Che is now full of Xia Yao's words just now, and he just took the initiative to resist the decree, and now that his identity has been revealed, it really seems that he has a small belly, and he is still jealous of this matter, and his face is a little unbearable.

He casually said a perfunctory sentence, "It's just that Miss Xia was killed by a traitor a few days ago, and I happened to be there, so I helped out, and then we met." ”

Xuanyuan Luo nodded and said that he knew, but there was no heat on his face, and the meaning of unwelcome was expressed in front of him. As for Xia Yao and Xuanyuan Che's acquaintance, he would naturally find out by himself.

Xuanyuan Che shook the fan in his hand, disgusted by the arrival of this younger brother, and found a reason to leave bored.

Xuanyuan Che left, and the breath that Xia Yao brought up finally let go. In the face of Xuanyuan Che, she had to face it with twelve points of spirit, for fear that she would be arrested and taken to the basement and mistreated if she was not careful.

Therefore, after Xuanyuan Che left, a smile unconsciously appeared on her face, "Why did you come here, didn't you play chess with Princess Jing just now?" ”

Xuanyuan Luo originally came to see that the little monk who led the way had not returned for a long time. He stared at the place where the third prince left for two seconds, then turned his head with the same expression, but his tone was two points lighter, "It's nothing, just passing by, you go and rest!" ”

As if she hadn't noticed this fact, Xia Yao smiled and said goodbye to Xuanyuan Luo and continued to follow the little monk forward.

And Xuanyuan Luo, who was still standing in place, saw Xia Yao's back disappear completely, and slowly let out a sigh that seemed to be nothing, "Xia Yao, Xia family." After a while, he turned to leave.

The rooms in the temple are small, with a pair of small tables and chairs and a simple bed, but they are very clean.

Xia Yao was lying on the bed, and it was really unexpected for Xuanyuan Che and Xuanyuan Luo to appear just now. But that's fine, Xuanyuan Che won't be able to approach her with a fake identity in the future, and she can blatantly stay away from Xuanyuan Che.

After all, the two of them have been accused of marriage, so they naturally have to pay attention to avoid suspicion.

And Xia Yao deliberately didn't say anything about the process of her acquaintance with Xuanyuan Luo just now, so she naturally waited for Xuanyuan Luo to investigate by herself, and what others said was naturally not as good as her own real investigation. And that incident has a deep relationship with Xia Li, she opened her own mouth, and it was inevitable that she would be suspected of disrespecting her sister.

Xia Yao can still clearly remember what the scene was like that day, at that time, she had just crossed over a few days, and after a secret investigation, she realized that she was pushed into the water by Xia Li on her birthday, and she was seriously ill, and when she woke up again, Xia Yao was this Xia Yao.

She is a Xibei who has not inherited the memory of the original owner, in order to prevent exposure, Xia Yao has always been very careful, following the principle of saying more and making more mistakes, and has always been silent and not sticky.

But even if she was so cautious, she couldn't avoid Xia Li's insistence on pulling her to the Wenren Pavilion.

The Literati Pavilion is a teahouse that is quite popular with the ladies of the family and the sons of the literati, and many people like to sit there when they have time.

Xia Yao was surprised to see men and women sitting opposite each other, chatting quite enthusiastically, and sighed in her heart that this was really an era of open folk customs. Not long after she sat down, she met a poor sour woman in his thirties who was about to take her hand.

This took Xia Yao by surprise, "What are you doing?" ”

Xiucai was taken aback by her reaction, and glanced at Xia Li with a slight weakness, seeing that she looked calm, she seemed to have confidence, and scolded in her mouth: "What are you doing?" You little, you just came here to find a man behind my back, are you dead when you are a man? ”

Xia Yao was startled at first, after all, she did not inherit the memory of the original owner. But after thinking about it carefully, I found the problem, the original owner was not favored at home, and he was timid, so he didn't go out of the door and didn't step out, so he went there to meet such a person.

Xia Yao had a bottom in her heart, so she scolded without hesitation: "What are you talking nonsense? I don't even know you. ”

"Okay!" The man screamed angrily, stretched out his hand to pull Xia Yao's clothes, "You slut, you're about to become an adult, and if you want to marry a dignitary, you want to get rid of me, don't you?" You think of beauty, you used to be my person, and you will be my ghost even if you die in the future. ”

The men and women who were originally watching the play next to them saw that a big man actually started to move, the woman screamed in fright and went straight back, and the men stepped forward bravely to suppress the man in order to show Xiàn in front of the beauty.

When the man saw this, he began to babble even more, "I still remember that day in the grove, your soft body, sweet sauce's little mouth, and a red mole on your neck......" He said so badly that the women present covered their faces and looked ashamed, and then whispered to their good playmates.

The men present looked at Xia Yao with disdain and obscenity, as if she was a cheap prostitute in a brothel. Xia Yao trembled angrily, and her afterglow met Xia Li's slightly smug gaze, and her heart slowly sank - she was fooled.

But if Xia Yao was defeated so easily, it wouldn't be Xia Yao, she was furious in her heart, but the whole person calmed down, "You say so, is there any evidence?" She slapped her palm on the mahogany table beside her drinking tea, and with a bang, the teacup on the table shook around, and finally she couldn't hold on, rolled to the ground, and shattered.

It can be seen how hard Xia Yao's palm was just now, she withdrew her hand, looked at the man with contempt in her eyes, and her words were full of disdain, "And...... Someone like you, what qualifications do I have to take a fancy to you? ”

When everyone heard this, they looked Xia Yao and the man up and down twice, only to see that although Xia Yao was not very luxurious, at least it was something that could only be worn by a small rich family, and more importantly, Xia Yao's eyebrows and eyes were very good, and now she pursed her lips, looking high, and she was even more extravagant.

On the other hand, the man, although his appearance is good, but under his eyes is a thick blue and gray color, he looks like he is lacking in qi and blood, there is still unshaved stubble on his chin, his eyes are cloudy, and his white clothes are full of dirty dust, and he looks poor and despair.

No matter how you look at it, neither of them is compatible.

Everyone unanimously retracted their previous gazes, and one of the more daring women even spoke directly: "This shameless villain who slanders others at will and destroys the reputation of others should be directly executed." ”

Everyone present had just received his way, and they were already quite embarrassed. Now, when they hear someone speak, they are clamoring for someone to send the man to the punishment department.

The man suddenly panicked, screaming and struggling frantically, "I'm not lying, I'm not lying, I must have been in contact with her, otherwise how would I know that there is a red mole on the back of her neck?" Do not be deceived by her appearances......"

Listening to what the man said, their eyes involuntarily looked at Xia Yao's white neck, as if they could see directly behind through the front with a sharp eye.

The summer weather was hot, and the maid beside Xia Yao was not satisfied, but simply made her a child's hair that was often tied up, just exposing half of her snow-white neck. The woman standing behind her could faintly see a small red mole on the back of her neck, and couldn't help but cry out, "Oops! There really is. ”
