Chapter 54: Alone
Ruan Xiu saw that Yuwen Haode was leaving, so she naturally wanted to go with him, so she got up and said, "Cousin, Xiu'er suddenly remembered that my cousin-in-law still has something to do with me, can I go with you?" ”
As soon as Yuwen Haode heard that Meng Yuting had something to do, where could he say something bad, he nodded.
Ruan Xiu got up and said to Xie Anyi: "Sister is waiting here now, and my sister will be back soon." My sister's maid is about to find this place. ”
Xie An was about to get up, but when she heard Ruan Xiu say this, it really blocked her way.
"What? Does staying in a pavilion with this king make you feel bad like that? Xiao Xiaohan took a sip of wine and asked expressionlessly.
"Sister, you are waiting for your sister here, and my sister will be back soon."
Yuwen Haode naturally heard the dissatisfaction in Xiao Xiaohan's words, he knew that it would not be good if the three of them left and left Prince Li alone, and when he heard Ruan Xiu say this, he also echoed: "Then please Miss Xie wait for a while." ”
I have to say that Yuwen Haode is really brainless when he says this. Xie An is also a girl who has not been out of the cabinet, and it is not right to sit at the same table with a foreign man, how can that person be in a high position, there is no way. But now she wants her to get along with Prince Li alone, if this spreads, her reputation will not be lost, not to mention that she still wants to be a draft girl.
Xie An was about to refuse, but Yuwen Haode and Ruan Xiu saluted Prince Li, and before Xie An could react, they walked out of the pavilion.
As soon as the two of them came out of the pavilion, Xie An also shot a knife at Xiao Xiaohan, and said coldly: "The prince atoned for his sins, it is really inappropriate for a lonely man and a widow to be in the same room, and the little girl retired first." That being said, she didn't move. That's right, she didn't dare to move yet, she was afraid that the man in front of her would suddenly attack. This person's temperament is changeable, and she still hasn't figured out his temper, but if she is quick to speak when no one is around, he still won't blame him.
Sure enough, Xiao Xiaohan didn't laugh angrily: "If you don't talk about this, who dares to spread it?" ”
"General Yuwen naturally won't say it, but I don't know Ruan Xiu." Xie An also told the truth.
"She won't say."
"Even if she doesn't say it, but there are many people here, it is inevitable that she will meet the next person, if they find out and spread it, what should I do?"
"Oh? At that moment, I will send Chengji to kill everyone who has seen you and me. The dead will always keep their mouths shut. ”
Xiao Xiaohan said casually.
He said it lightly, as if he had let Cheng Ji kill a few fish instead of human life. Xie An also swallowed his saliva and secretly glanced at Cheng Ji who was standing aside, but saw that his face had not changed at all, as if Xiao Xiaohan had just said nothing.
"Forget it, you know kill, kill, kill, I won't leave." Xie An also complained, and even she didn't realize that her words hid the shyness of her little daughter.
Xiao Xiaohan didn't speak, drank a glass of wine and asked her, "Are you still cold?" ”
Xie An also differed from the jumpiness of her thinking, and didn't react for a while, but just shook her head instinctively.
"Since it's not cold, don't drink this wine."
As soon as Xiao Xiaohan finished speaking, Cheng Ji stepped forward to accept the wine glass in front of her and said, "I'll go and change the hot tea for the girl." With that, he also walked out of the pavilion.
In this way, only Xie Anyi and Xiao Xiaohan were left in this pavilion.
Xie An was also a little embarrassed, if he didn't speak, the pavilion would be too quiet, but if he wanted to talk to Xiao Xiaohan, he didn't know what to say.
Fortunately, Xiao Xiaohan broke the tranquility, he picked up another glass of wine, took a sip, and said, "What she asked you to do just now, you promised her." ”
"Huh?" Xie An was also stunned by his headless words, "Who?" What's up? ”
"Ruan Xiu."
Nguyen Xiu? Xie Anyi's first reaction was that Xiao Xiaohan knew Ruan Xiu, or Ruan Xiu was the person sent by Xiao Xiaohan. No wonder, Ruan Xiu, a woman, dared to secretly murder Meng Yuting's flesh and blood, if there was no one behind her back, she would not be able to do it as a little girl.
"Why? Do you know that she wants to murder Meng's flesh and blood? Xie An is also a little anxious, she has no concept of three wives and four concubines in modern times, so Ruan Xiu is a junior, and she still wants to murder the original mistress. Now that Xiao Xiaohan actually asked her to help a junior, how could she be willing.
Xiao Xiaohan saw her posture of "If you don't explain it clearly, I won't give up and never cooperate", shook his head, and said, "That Meng's surname is Meng." ”
That's right, the Meng family and Xiao Xiaohan have always been incompatible, if the Meng family is favored, how can he win over the Yuwen family? No wonder he wants to support the junior and let the original partner step down.
"Ruan Xiu is your man?" Xie An also asked unwillingly.
But this time Xiao Xiaohan didn't answer, he saw that Cheng Cheng came back with a pot of tea, personally poured a cup for Xie Anyi, and handed it to her, but Xie Anyi didn't answer, just looked at her coldly.
Ordinary people are always uncomfortable being stared at like this, but Xiao Xiaohan is not an ordinary person, he saw that she didn't move, and he was not annoyed, he gently put the teacup on the stone table in front of her, and looked at Xie An with a smile in turn.
Xie An also blushed, hurriedly lowered his head, and shifted his gaze. After all, she is a woman, how can she look at each other like this with a man? If this kind of scene appears in modern TV dramas, the hero and heroine will look at it but they will see their feelings and kiss up. In order to hide her embarrassment, she picked up the teacup on the stone table and drank it down, almost choking and coughing a few times.
Xiao Xiaohan smiled dumbly when he saw her move, and said softly: "It's about to be the New Year, you are coming to Beijing for the first time, are you not adaptable?" ”
Xie An also stared at the hem of her skirt and shook her head, but she was surprised in her heart: This prince is acting in a good way, isn't he urging her to go to Xie Zhishu to find the edict? Why do you care about her? On second thought, when modern leaders talk to their subordinates, they always have to talk about them first to show their concern before arranging tasks. Thinking of this, she was relieved and slowly raised her head.
"You're going to go to the palace after the year, but you don't have to worry, just do it normally. You won't stay in the palace. Xiao Xiaohan also shifted his gaze to the teapot, he poured himself a cup of tea, and drank it slowly.
"Hmm." Xie An didn't ask much, but she believed in Xiao Xiaohan's ability in her heart, since he said that she would not stay in the palace, then she really wouldn't.
"Let's go."
Xie An was also stunned, he was calling her and waving away. But there was no way, who let the identity disparity, so she stood up, and the salute was not good, and said, "The little woman has retired." With that, he turned and left.
Just about to leave the pavilion, he suddenly remembered something, and turned to look at Xiao Xiaohan again: "Ruan Xiu's matter, I can't do anything." ”
Without waiting for Xiao Xiaohan to react, she quickly lifted the curtain and ran out.
"Master, didn't you misunderstand Miss Xie by saying that?" Cheng Ji looked at the curtain that was still shaking, and said worriedly, "Then Ruan Xiu is not the master's person, and the master doesn't want the Meng family to fall out of favor, why do you say that?" ”
Xiao Xiaohan's eyes were still on the curtain, as if he could see the petite figure through the curtain, and only said two words: "Radical general." ”
