Chapter 152: A Chance Encounter
Xia Xue'er hesitated for a moment, but after all, she didn't move, she just stood far away, but her eyes stared at Mu Xuanlong for a long time.
Originally, she didn't have any burden in her heart when she came into contact with Mu Xuanlong, just because she firmly believed that Mu Xuanlong was a prince and there were a lot of stunning beauties around her, so it was naturally impossible for her to like her type of thorny and disobedient to discipline. But recently, I always feel that his eyes are not as cold and ruthless as before, but a little more gentle, and his tone of voice is a lot calmer, and sometimes he even makes some incomprehensible actions.
Intuition sues her that this person needs to be isolated!
"Why is Your Highness here?" In just a few months, the two of them have met too many times.
Mu Xuanlong couldn't help frowning when he saw that she was still standing in place full of vigilance, she didn't like to be close to him so much? Or is it that you are not obvious enough?
"I just came to say hello to my mother, and I came here with great interest, but I didn't expect to meet you." Mu Xuanlong replied lightly, without the slightest sense of guilt for coaxing the woman.
"Really?"
Xia Xue'er asked softly after hearing this, but there was a slight smile on her face. The tea set that had not yet had time to be withdrawn, the hot tea, he clearly left in a hurry after hearing that he had arrived. And Aunt Yunxi's sudden disappearance, I am afraid that she was also instructed by Sun Guifei, otherwise, in this huge Yuehua Palace, she is not familiar with life, and it is possible that something will happen. recalled the heavy gift given by Sun Guifei the day before, and clearly guessed that after receiving the gift, he would definitely enter the palace to thank him, which laid out today's situation!
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel a chill on my body......
And Mu Xuanlong also frowned, it turned out that she had already broken through a qiē. This kind of reaction speed and such a clever mind really impressed him! couldn't help but step closer to her, but Xia Xue'er took a few steps back when she saw this, and stopped her in a loud voice: "Please don't approach the courtiers, the courtiers feel the wind and cold, and they are afraid of infecting Your Highness." "She can't be sure what kind of hands and feet are in the tea she drank just now, so she can't contact the six princes lightly, sometimes, it is necessary to keep an eye on it!
The two looked at each other for a long time, and each knew that the other was lying, but neither wanted to debunk each other.
The flowers and leaves of the acacia are strange, and the green shade is like an umbrella. The two of them each stood under a dense acacia tree, the shade of which blocked the scorching sun, leaving a rare cool foothold in this hot summer. When the breeze blows, the leaves are swaying, and when they sway with the wind, the rays of sunlight take advantage of the void to enter, shine on the ground, sprinkle on the dress, a mottled scene. Xia Xue'er stood still, only carefully watching the man's every move, not daring to be distracted and paying attention to the surroundings, quite a little disappointed by this beautiful scenery.
"Are you all healed?"
After a while, Mu Xuanlong popped out such a concerned sentence, which somewhat surprised Xia Xue'er. Mu Xuanlong is a ruthless person, which was seen when the two first met, and this was deeply felt in the cooperation of the next few months.
He has never cared about the lives of others, he only cares that his plan can achieve the desired effect. But for a person like him who can be ruthless to himself, what is the life of others?
Xia Xue'er just didn't expect that a ruthless person could still remember that she was injured a month ago! Maybe for him, he can be regarded as a useful pawn.
Slightly stunned, he came back to his senses, first bowed to the man, and then replied: "Your Highness Xie cares, the courtiers are fine." ”
"I specially asked the imperial doctor to adjust the scar removal ointment and deliver it to your house in person another day."
He highlighted the words "specially" and "personally", but he didn't want to not only fail to move Xia Xue'er, but instead make her whole body tense even tighter. I couldn't help muttering in my heart, he had never been so interested in a woman, if he had been replaced by a side concubine in the house, I am afraid that he would have been moved to tears!
Seeing that the woman has always been very wary of him, he didn't step forward again, he wouldn't force her, because he had confidence and patience. immediately changed the topic and said: "That day, I mentioned the incident fifteen years ago in the Jian'an Hou Mansion, I don't know how much you know?" ”
"What? Your Highness interested? The corners of Xia Xue'er's mouth were slightly hooked, and she raised her eyebrows and looked at Mu Xuanlong.
As far as she knew, although the eldest prince Mu Xuanting was born with Mu Xuanlong's mother, Mu Xuanlong was only four or five years old when he was killed, and he should be at an age when he didn't understand anything. And this matter has become a scar on the emperor's heart, so everyone avoids talking about it, lest it be taboo, so no one dares to talk to him about it. If he knew, he would only know the surface and not the essence, unless he found any clues on this trip to Lingnan.
Mu Xuanlong hates being spied on by others, and even hates being suspicious of her thoughts, "You just have to say it." ”
"The courtiers must know more than His Highness......" Xia Xue'er paused, pinched the handkerchief and wiped the beads of sweat on her forehead, Fu Cai looked at the other party's handsome face full of anticipation and said with a smile: "But you can't say it in vain." ”
Xia Xue'er's meaning couldn't be clearer, if you want to find out the news from her mouth, you have to exchange it for a valuable one! As for Mu Xuanlong, the most attractive thing to Xia Xue'er at present is the prisoners in the prison, but he will not be able to satisfy her for a while.
"Don't worry, you'll sue me." It's a promise.
Mu Xuanlong raised his hand, folded off a pink acacia and handed it to Xia Xue'er, but Xia Xue'er still didn't move, the corners of her mouth hooked, and then pretended not to see anything, lowered her eyebrows, her right fingers touched the beautiful peony embroidered with gold thread on the cuff of her left hand, her thin lips opened lightly, and her voice was soft without losing its crispness: "Since Your Highness is full of confidence, the courtiers can only wait for the good news of Your Highness!" ”
It's not that she refuses to tell him what happened fifteen years ago, but with this incident as an incentive for him to rescue Uncle Rong, why not do it?
On a summer day, it is really a child's face, one moment the sun is shining, and the next second it is cloudy. Xia Xue'er raised her eyes to look at the rain curtain that was getting closer and closer, and quickened her pace. This garden has no rules, there are countless forks, she is a road idiot, and when she came, she only cared about enjoying the scenery, and did not notice Yunxi's departure, but at this time, she couldn't find her way back anyway, so she could only go around in this garden. She is not afraid of the rain, but today she is in the palace, if the clothes on her body are wet, I am afraid that she will commit a taboo!
"Miss Xia San~Miss Xia San~"
Hearing the maid's voice, the slight panic in her heart gradually subsided. (To be continued.) )
