Chapter 487: Fanning the Flames
The longer Xie Zhan dragged on, the heavier Xiao Changting's impatience became.
Seeing that Xiao Changting was about to speak, Xie Zhan immediately handed the token into his hand, blocked his unspoken words in his throat, and took the opportunity to show his loyalty, saying, "Your Majesty, here is the soldier's talisman. ”
Xiao Changting didn't hesitate, put down the talisman, and said "um", not even bothering to say extra politeness.
Just when Xie Zhan was still about to ask a few more questions, Xiao Changting seemed to see Xie Zhan's thoughts, stared at the yellow tea soup in the white porcelain teacup on the table, and said, "There's nothing else, you can go back." ”
Xie Zhan: "? ”
Without?
He went all the way to find himself just to ask for a talisman?
"Your Majesty..."
Xie Zhan wanted to say, if there is any difficulty, say it, don't hold it in your heart alone, he will always stand by His Majesty's side and do his best for him.
It's a pity that before these words were spoken, I saw Xiao Changting raise his eyes, confusion and impatience flashed in his dark eyes, and asked, "What, do you have anything else?" ”
Xie Zhan shook his head.
Nothing else, it's just ...... I feel that His Majesty is a little strange.
Of course, he couldn't say such things, and could only go back and express his worries one step at a time.
As everyone knows, his behavior like this will only make Xiao Changting even more annoyed.
After Xie Zhan left, Gonggong Shen came to Xiao Changting's side, bent down, and asked, "Your Majesty, what do you think?" Lord Hakuhoji Temple...... Will he betray you? ”
Xiao Changting didn't give an answer, his beautiful eyes glanced at him, and a chill suddenly crept all over his body.
Gonggong Shen shuddered, raised his hand and gave himself a big mouth, and said tremblingly: "Your Majesty forgives the sin, it is the slave who does not understand the height of the sky and the earth, and speculates about the royal affairs, the slave knows his mistake, and the slave no longer dare." ”
Xiao Changting retracted his gaze and said, "If I don't have a roundworm in his stomach, how do I know if he will betray?" ”
"It's a minion who doesn't have a brain." Gonggong Shen lowered his eyes.
Xiao Changting stared in the direction Xie Zhan had left, and his heart was in a mess. Regarding Xie Zhan and Xin Muyuan, he became more and more unclear.
Will these two people really betray themselves?
Or, are these two people really not going to betray themselves?
Probably not.
Now that he has taken away the military power in Xie Zhan's hands, what are they using to rebel against him?
Xiao Changting thought wildly, and thought of Xin Muyuan, who held the financial power in his hands.
He deprived Xie Zhan of the right to resist, which was just a drop in the bucket for Xin Muyuan.
The wealth in the hands of that woman had developed to a frightening point when he was not noticing.
Xiao Changting sat alone in the flower hall of Panlong Residence for a long time, and it was getting late, and Gonggong Shen spoke softly, "Your Majesty, it's getting late, it's time to rest." ”
Xiao Changting blinked and came back to his senses.
The tea was already cold, the wind was blowing gently, and there was no one to rely on.
"How's Huai'an?" Xiao Changting looked sideways.
Gonggong Shen replied respectfully: "I still lock myself in my room and refuse to see anyone." ”
"Is anyone going to see her during this time?"
"Luo Guiren has been there once."
Xiao Changting's eyes narrowed: "Has the princess seen it?" ”
Gonggong Shen replied: "No, the princess is very uncomfortable, and no one wants to see her." ”
Xiao Changting nodded, a snort came out of his nose, and said, "Count her understanding." ”
He stood up.
Gonggong Shen asked, "Where is Your Majesty going?" ”
Xiao Changting took up his long legs and walked outside the Panlong Residence: "Luohuayuan." ”
It's Falling Flower Garden again!
Shen Gonggong's pupils trembled, and the words that flowed into his throat were swallowed back by him.
The current Xiao Changting couldn't listen to anything, and his rash proposal to keep his distance from Luo Guiren now would definitely cause him discomfort.
"Your Majesty seems to have been going to Luohuayuan a lot lately, is it reconciled with Luo Gui?"
Xiao Changting was speechless.
Gonggong Shen sighed in his heart.
Xiao Changyu's madness seems to have had a profound impact on Xiao Changting, making him feel like a different person.
The once gentle and honest seemed to be a fake skin, torn off by a pair of hands, with hot flesh and blood.
When Xie Zhan came back from the palace, he saw Xin Muyuan sitting at the door resting.
When it was time for the store to close, no one cleaned up, and everyone rested on the table or leaned against the table, closing their tired eyes, trying to dispel the fatigue of the day.
"Are you waiting for me?" Xie Zhan walked over lightly, lying on Xin Muyuan's knees, looking up at her sleepy eyes.
Xin Muyuan's eyes trembled and slowly opened.
Fang Cai Xu was asleep, and when his eyes opened, there was still a thin mist of water, and the whole person was in a daze. Blinking, dispelling the mist in the eyes, Qingming gathered from all directions, and returned to its former coldness.
She pushed Xie Zhan away, got up and walked into the house, and said, "Everyone is ready to rest, just waiting for you to clean up." ”
"Ah......" Xie Zhan glanced into the room, and the corners of his eyes drooped sadly.
Things to pack...... Isn't it a bit too much......
When he rolled up his sleeves and was about to start working in frustration, Xin Muyuan brought warm chicken soup again, and said, "I heard the guest's list wrong today, and the bad chicken mother-in-law made one more." To avoid waste, you eat it. ”
Xie Zhan put down his rolled up sleeves, walked over obediently, picked up the spoon placed next to him and reluctantly ate a little, and the umami spread in his mouth.
His pupils widened.
It's not something that was done a long time ago!
He had tasted Granny Chicken's chicken soup warm over the fire, and this time it tasted even fresher than that time!
I tasted the chicken again, and the tender texture exploded on the tip of my tongue.
This chicken soup has obviously not been ready for long! Maybe you don't even have time for a cup of tea!
Granny Chicken's soup closes every day, and no longer accepts orders for a stick of incense in advance, but now the time has exceeded the time of a tea in the future! In other words, this bowl of chicken soup was not rejected by the guests at all, but was specially reserved by Xin Muyuan for himself!
Looking at the reactions of the people next to me, it is clear that they have been hungry for this bowl of chicken soup for a long time, but for some reason, they have not eaten it in their mouths!
In this way, Xie Zhan is even more convinced that this bowl of chicken soup is made for him!
A shallow smile appeared on his cheeks, and the corners of Xie Zhan's lips were hooked, and he drank not a drop of chicken soup left, and the saliva of the people staring at him drooled.
Bang Feng's face is the thickest, crying and begging Granny Ji to make him a bowl, but today's Granny Chicken is so tired that she can't even hold a rice spoon, so she directly rejected Bang Feng's request.
Poor Bang Feng could only stare at Xie Zhan's empty bowl, tears and saliva flowed down together, making Granny Ji unable to tease.
Xie Zhan wiped his mouth clean, rolled up his sleeves and began to clean up. The employees who had rested for half an hour also stopped their rest and packed up their things with Xie Zhan.
