Chapter 224: Catching the Adulterer
Rong Xi smiled, pulled over the big pillow to lean on, stretched his waist lazily, and said slowly: "You are worried about my husband and want to recruit him as your son-in-law, and you still say that it is not about the princess?" β
"You...... You ......" Hao Lianbei'er's eyes suddenly widened, her eyes seemed to be spewing fire, her gaze fell on Rong Xi's bulging lower abdomen, and she opened her mouth in surprise, unable to speak for a long time.
Xiao'er snorted, walked over and said to Rong Xi, "Princess, do you want to serve you?" β
"Don't worry about it yet, we have to settle this matter." Rong Xi waved his hand and said lightly.
Leng Yixiu was secretly anxious, he regretted a little that he didn't explain to Rong Xi about Hao Lianbei'er, if she told her truthfully when she asked herself yesterday, maybe she would only smile faintly, and there would be no such misunderstanding today.
And now, he looked at the smile on Rong Xi's face, the smile was ethereal, like a cloud to the fog, confused and unclear, but revealing a faint alienation, he suddenly felt a little flustered.
"You are actually pregnant with Brother Seven's child...... Let him confess the thief as his father! It took Hao Lianbeier a long time to recover from the shock, and then burst out a sentence that was tantamount to a bomb, and threw it at everyone.
Leng Yixiu hated that he couldn't faint to death directly and recognize the thief as his father? What is this called?
Rong Xi couldn't help laughing, her laughter was as clear as the bell of a horse in the mountains, "Princess Hao Lian, say so...... Do you like to be a thief? β
Hao Lianbei'er also felt that something was wrong as soon as she spoke, she bit her lip, her eyes flashed with crystal light, and she said hatefully: "I didn't mean that!" β
"And what are you trying to express?" Rong Xi asked curiously.
"I mean...... You shouldn't be like this, pregnant with my seventh brother's child, and still with him! What do you mean? Hao Lianbei'er was puffed up, and her cheeks were agitated like a fish.
"You should go and ask your seventh brother," Rong Xi thought for a moment and changed to a more comfortable position, "I'm sure he'll give you the answer." β
"Okay, I'll go back to him!" Hao Lianbei'er stomped her foot and looked at Leng Yixiu who was standing on the side, "You are not allowed to touch her again!" β
With that, he threw down a room of jaw-dropping people and turned to leave.
There was a moment of silence in the room, and the farce started the day, but it was ...... For Leng Yixiu, it's a bit not very good.
"That...... Rongxi, let me help you comb your hair? Leng Yixiu stood behind Rong Xi and looked at her in the dressing mirror and said.
"No need," Rong Xi said lightly as he plugged in a jade hairpin.
"......" Leng Yixiu.
Xiao'er bowed her head and came in, holding a copper basin in her hand, which was filled with water mixed with rose juice, with a faint fragrance, Leng Yixiu hurriedly took it, carefully brought it to Rong Xi's approach, and said, "Rong Xi, I'll help you clean your face?" β
"No, didn't you say that you can't touch me again?" Rong Xi glanced at Xiao'er, who hurriedly took the basin from Leng Yixiu's hand.
"......" Leng Yixiu.
Finally set the meal, the two of them sat at the dining table, Leng Yixiu picked up the soup bowl, and said with a smile on his face: "Rongxi, I'll help you serve a bowl of soup, this soup is extremely fresh......"
"No, didn't you say that you can't touch me again?" Rong Xi said, glanced at Leng Yixiu, who was about to speak, and said, "The spoon and bowl you touched, if I drink it again, it will be considered touched." β
"......" Leng Yixiu.
Until the breakfast was finished and the girls cleaned up, Rong Xi still had this attitude, and what he said to Leng Yixiu was the same content, and Leng Yixiu's heart seemed to have put a pot of charcoal, which made him restless.
"Rongxi, listen to me...... Things are not what you think," Leng Yixiu decided to tell the truth, and went to Hao Lian Zize from that night to talk about.
Speaking of which, it was also on a whim, why did you go to him in a good manner? It's really inexplicable...... It's obviously good, but I have to go to him to drink something, but I ran into his living treasure sister, which is good, and it's even more messy......
"What do I think?" Rong Xi looked at him and asked without blinking.
Those eyes were extremely bright, like black agate stones, black light flashed, and then it seemed to look into the bottom of his heart, he quietly looked at the meaning in those eyes, but found that he couldn't see clearly.
"You...... I ......" Leng Yixiu suddenly didn't know what to say.
"I naturally know that you have nothing to do with her," Rong Xi turned his head to speak, and looked at the pearls in the courtyard outside the window, the dense leaves had begun to fall, like yellow butterflies, dancing in the wind.
Her tone was leisurely, as if attached to the scattered leaves, drifting away in the wind, "It's justβyou promised me that you won't hide anything from me anymore." β
She turned her head and looked at him carefully, her gaze was calm, like water and wind, like a slender sigh, with a deep helplessness and loneliness.
Leng Yixiu's heart seemed to be pinched by something, so ruthless, so painful, that his whole body seemed to be in pain, he opened his mouth, slowly walked to Rong Xi's side, stretched out his arms and hugged her in his arms, and said in a muffled voice: "I'm sorry...... I'm sorry...... Rong Xi, I'm not trying to hide it from you, I'm just ...... I think...... This kind of little thing, there is no need for you to know that it annoys you, I thought ......"
"However, this is an extraordinary time," Rong Xi said calmly, slowly raised and hugged him, the voice seemed to come from a distant place, blowing in his ears, "You should know, her identity is special, what if...... I don't want to be in the dark and wake up in a dream when the killing machine is about to come. β
Leng Yixiu's body stiffened slightly, his voice seemed to be choked in his throat, and he naturally realized that what Rong Xi said was right, but he didn't think of such a deep level, he just thought that Hao Lianbei'er was just a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl, even if she spoke a little excessively, but it was always a child's heart, maybe ...... Leave her alone, and it will be fine after a while.
However, he ignored that this was not the time, but the most unbearable time.
"I see...... I will definitely be more careful," he said, hugging Rongxi tightly, until he felt the heat of her body and her heartbeat, his heart calmed down a lot, "I come back every day, and I explain it to you in detail, do you think it?" β
"Well," Rong Xi's voice lengthened, and his voice came out of his nose lazily, "By the way, when are you going to go to Mingxiao Country?" β
"To the country of Tomorrow Night?" Leng Yixiu was slightly stunned, not understanding what Rong Xi meant.
"Yes......" Rong Xi sighed leisurely, like a leaf twirling in his ear, "Didn't Princess Hao Lian say that you should be her son-in-law?" β
"......" Leng Yixiu.
Hao Lianbeier ran almost all the way, and quickly returned to the residence, Hao Lian Zize, who was receiving the news from the flying pigeon in the yard, was startled, and in the blink of an eye, a ball of pink pounced in front of her.
"Seventh brother! Something is wrong! Hao Lianbei'er's face was red, and there were beads of sweat on the tip of her nose, shining.
"What's wrong?" Looking at the anxiety and worry in her eyes, Hao Lian Zize couldn't help but say, his fingers pinched, the news that had just been received there, the mission of the Mingxiao Kingdom was about to arrive, at this time...... Don't make any mistakes.
"Seventh sister-in-law...... Something happened to the seventh sister-in-law! When Hao Lianbei'er thought of Rong Xi's appearance and Leng Yixiu's appearance in his middle clothes, her face was red and ashamed, and she didn't finish her words.
Hao Lian Zize's heart was shocked, and the words he said changed slightly, "Rong Xi? What happened to Rongxi? What happened? Where is she? β
"Look, you still care about her so much," Hao Lianbei'er pursed her lips, a little upset for Seventh Brother, "I really don't understand, you are so good to her, why does she still ......"
"What the hell happened to her? Say it quickly. Hao Lian Zize couldn't help but be a little anxious when he saw her talking about him left and right.
"Humph! She...... Red apricots are out of the wall! Hao Lianbeier said angrily, "What's even more hateful is that do you know who her adulterer is?" β
"Wait......" Hao Lian Zize felt that his head was constantly enlarged, as if it had grown to two sizes, and there were some flowers in front of him, "What did you say just now?" Red apricots out of the wall? β¦β¦ Adulterer? β
"yes, yes!" Hao Lianbei'er's voice was a little higher, her mouth pursed, and she looked aggrieved.
"Uh...... Can you elaborate on that and understand a little bit more? Hao Lian Zize really couldn't withstand these blows, and the impact of these words made him feel more difficult to parry than a hundred enemies.
"Oh, I can't tell, you come with me, you'll know at a glance!" Hao Lianbeier hurriedly grabbed his sleeve and dragged him out.
"Where are you going to take me......" Hao Lian Zize couldn't help frowning and exclaimed.
"You'll know when you go!" Hao Bei'er said without looking back.
In the dark, Hao Lianzhao and Hao Lianqian secretly poked their heads out, and one of them asked the other: "The princess said just now, where do you want to take the master?" β
"I guess that's ...... To catch the traitor? "The other one isn't so sure.
"Like, let's ...... Come along? β
"Look!"
The two of them discussed, followed behind, looked at the master who was dragged to the back in front of them, and couldn't help but glance at each other, and they both saw a little helplessness in each other's eyes, ah...... Only the princess can control the master......
The group quickly came to the door of King Ning's mansion, and Hao Lianbeier said to the three big characters on the plaque: "Then, this is it." β
"Here?" Hao Lian Zize was confused, he sorted out the crumpled sleeves that were grabbed by Hao Lianbeier, and asked curiously, "Is this ...... Ning Wangfu? What are you bringing me here for? β
As soon as he finished asking, he slowly turned his head to look at Hao Lianbei'er as if he remembered something, and asked, "How did you know that Ning Wang's Mansion is here?" β
