Chapter 29: Suspicion

As soon as Luo Xue stepped into Sikong Cangling's study, she looked at it casually, but was interrupted by Sikong Cangling's cold voice without any emotional fluctuations.

Luo Xue retracted her gaze and turned her head, and saw Sikong Cangling, who was looking at Luo Xue with calm eyes in front of the desk. Sikong Cangling's study is divided into two rooms, the outer one is larger, and there are tables and chairs for meetings, and the inner room is a little smaller, but it is big enough for Luo Xue. The outside setting is more somber, revealing some depressing and dull and serious atmosphere, perhaps because it is often used to discuss things.

The interior is a little more casual, although it is still the same cold, but it looks a little more comfortable. As soon as you enter the room, you can see that there is a large desk on the left, and there are bookshelves on all four walls, which are full of books, and it can be seen that Sikong Cangling is also a person who loves to read, and there is a fur soft couch and a bed on the right.

Facing Sikong Cangling's words that seemed to be slightly angry, Luo Xue was very calm, and replied lightly, "The prince is worried." ”

Sikong Cangling chuckled, as if sarcastic, "Ai Concubine, isn't it good for this king to care about you?" ”

Luo Xue frowned powerlessly in her heart, I really hope you don't worry too much about me. There was no change on his face, but the corners of his mouth hooked up a smile without a smile, "The prince said that he laughed, how can Luo Xue be virtuous, he can get the prince's concern." There is a little bit of a sense of pushing Sikong Cangling out of the words.

"Aifei, has this king snubbed you recently?"

"What?"

Sikong Cangling's sudden words made Luo Xue puzzled, why did she suddenly remember to say such a sentence?

Sikong Cangling looked at the woman in front of him whose face remained unchanged, but there were doubts in his eyes, and frowned, "Concubine Ai, it seems that she has lost a lot recently, and she doesn't even wear your favorite blue agate peony necklace." ”

Luo Xue chuckled in her heart, her recent unscrupulous behavior seemed to have brought her huge trouble, and she couldn't help but look at Sikong Cangling, and sure enough, she saw Sikong Cangling's suspicious eyes looking at her.

At the moment, he seemed to unintentionally lower his head, "Things are people, so why care too much." There was a sense of loss and resentment in his words, which seemed to be saying to Sikong Cangling, and as if he was saying to himself, lowering his head and looking helpless and powerless, his thin body made people feel that he couldn't help but want to cherish this fragile woman.

Sikong Cangling's cold expression was inexplicably soft, and there seemed to be a hint of shame in his eyes, but the soft eyes flashed, replaced by a coldness that seemed to be more intense, mixed with a trace of chagrin.

But again, there was a hint of relief in his eyes.

Sikong Cangling himself didn't understand, he hadn't seen this person who was not important to him for a long time, and he had never cared about it, but he had met him in a hurry this morning, and it was on such a special day for him. This woman was wearing the same blue clothes as herself, and she seemed to meet her unexpectedly, and she saw that she was also uncharacteristically indifferent. The most important thing is that because of her reaction, she actually had an uncomfortable feeling for the first time, a strangeness that she had never felt before. I shouldn't have felt this way, and this inexplicable emotion is still because of an unimportant chess piece.

Yes, whether it is in the eyes of Luo Wengong or Sikong Cangling, Luo Xue has always been a chess piece used to temporarily adjust the relationship between monarchs and ministers.

But now, this chess piece has made Sikong Cangling pay attention. Today, if it were according to the past, Sikong Cangling should have stayed in Shanyuan for a whole day, but today in Shanyuan, he was unexpectedly uneasy, and he didn't expect that the last place that could calm him would now become unpeaceful. And all this is because of a Luo Xue, how can he not feel annoyed, it is irritation at Luo Xue, and it is also dissatisfied with his mood fluctuations.

Luo Xue seemed to raise her head with great difficulty, with a hint of resentment in her eyes, but more of the love that couldn't help but gush out. "What is the prince looking for a concubine for? Listening to Lin's mother, it seems to be in a hurry. Luo Xue asked softly, at this moment it seemed that she was the original 'Luo Xue', gentle and kind. And when he looked at Sikong Cangling, he saw the relief and slight apology in Sikong Cangling's eyes, and he was slightly relieved, but then he wondered, apologize?

Hmph, do you feel guilty because of your death this time? But I don't want to accept it! Luo Xue sneered in her heart, didn't she think it was too late now.

But she didn't think about it, Sikong Cangling did things, how could she ever feel a little sorry for anyone? His pride, who can make him feel a little guilty?

Sikong Cangling didn't find that Luo Xue was the slightest bit wrong, and now Luo Xue didn't seem to have changed at all, she was still as soft and weak as before, and from her eyes, she could see her undisguised love for herself, it seemed that she thought too much. In the past few days, I have heard people discussing the changes in her own Xuefang concubine, and her indifference when she met her today, I have to suspect that she is no longer the original Luo Xue, but another woman who looks the same as Luo Xue, who was arranged by her opponent. But now Luo Xue's performance has made Sikong Cangling dispel this idea, although he still feels a little wrong.

However, what Sikong Cangling didn't know was Luo Xue in the modern world, as a killer, he had to make different movements and expressions in various environments and in the face of various characters. This is the basic quality, the basic skill of being a killer.

Hearing Luo Xue's inquiry, Sikong Cangling withdrew all his affectionate eyes, leaving only a cold and ruthless look.

When Luo Xue saw his changes, she couldn't help but be shocked, not to mention Sikong Cangling's character, just his change in emotion was worthy of Luo Xue's admiration, and the most important thing was that Luo Xue was not so disgusted with Sikong Cangling for no reason, even if Sikong Cangling had indirectly caused the death of 'Luo Xue'. Maybe it's because Sikong Cangling and Luo Xue ...... It's too much of a resemblance. Whether it's the same character, decisiveness or innate pride, they are the same kind of people.

Thinking of this, Luo Xue couldn't help but put a question mark on herself in her heart, would such a proud man be disdainful of using a concubine's hand to deal with himself and kill himself? Or did he never care about any of that?

However, before she could think through these things, Sikong Cangling spoke, "In a few days, my father will hold a palace banquet, you can prepare and enter the palace with this king and the princess to participate in the palace banquet." ”

Sikong Cangling's expression didn't change much, and his tone didn't fluctuate much, as if this matter didn't matter to him at all. But Luo Xue was different, her brows involuntarily wrinkled slightly, and she let herself go to the palace banquet with Sikong Cangling and Xiao Xueqing? Why? Luo Xue became more and more confused.

As a young lady, it is already surprising that the emperor let him marry Sikong Cangling as a side concubine, and his identity is completely unqualified to become Sikong Cangling's side concubine, and this position should have been the position of his eldest sister, but he gave himself so much trouble inexplicably. And now, let yourself accompany you to the palace banquet? Everyone knows that the concubines are not eligible to participate in this palace banquet, because this palace banquet is actually a family banquet of the royal family, so what is this emperor thinking? What is this for? I don't understand!

But Luo Xue didn't think much about it, what should come is always coming, her brows were slightly furrowed for a moment, and the sharp flickering in her eyes was only a flash, and in a blink of an eye, she returned to the soft and weak, husband-based Xue Fang Concubine, lowered her eyebrows, did not make any questions, just lowered her head and replied gently, "Yes, Lord Wang." ”

It's just that her bowing head made Sikong Cangling frown again, just wanting to cater and not resist, everything is based on Sikong Cangling, so that Sikong Cangling no longer doubts and is wary of her. But I ignore that sometimes, blindly following the other party's words will reveal a bigger horse's feet.

If it was the previous 'Luo Xue', who had such a strong concept of respect and inferiority, when she learned that the emperor asked her to attend a banquet on such an occasion, even if she would not lose her mind in a panic, she would at least have doubts and doubts, but now Luo Xue directly agreed without saying a word, which made people even more suspicious.
