Chapter 21: Rejection

"Your house is too small." Ning Yan commented as soon as he entered the door.

Lu Xihe opened the curtain and said with a shallow smile: "There are not many people in total, this house is enough." ”

Ning Yan frowned and said, "Tomorrow, I will send someone to find you a big mansion and arrange more people to protect your safety." ”

What Ning Yan didn't expect was that Lu Xihe rejected him again.

"It's good that I live here, not to mention that it's very close to the Criminal Department, so it's very convenient to go back and forth."

Ning Yan was very depressed, "I'll send some people over tomorrow and don't refuse me again." ”

She had no choice but to say, "It's fine." Since I am the person arranged by His Royal Highness, I am also relieved. ”

Ning Yan walked into the room unceremoniously, sat down in the main seat, and put one arm on the rosewood table, "Don't serve tea yet?" ”

Lu Xihe then walked in, saw him looking like an uncle, and instructed Luluo: "Don't you want to serve tea to His Royal Highness Five?" She blinked with her left eye, and the green pothos was stunned, and instantly understood what Lu Xihe meant.

"Yes." She answered the call and went out.

Ning Yan then remembered that there was still an eye-catching person in the room, so he said angrily: "Bai Xi, put down the things and go out to guard." ”

Bai Xi waited for this sentence, and immediately put the wooden box on the ground, "Yes, Your Highness." ”

Finally, it was just the two of them.

Ning Yan coughed, "You're going to the Criminal Department next month, before you go, do you want to go back to your home to have a look?" ”

Lu Xihe sat down in the guest seat, not knowing how to answer him.

"Maybe in a few days."

"If you need help, just ask." Ning Yan only said this sentence for a long time, thought about it and said, "If anyone bullies you, you will mention me." If that doesn't work, you come back and tell me and see how I clean him up. ”

Lu Xihe lowered his head, and his eyes were slightly distracted.

Calculating the time, the eldest brother is almost going back to Tiandu. When the time comes, they will inevitably meet.

He should be very angry if he resisted him by himself, or even left quietly alone.

"Your Highness." She looked up at Ning Yan and said with a smile.

"It's useless to just talk, you have to take action." His Adam's apple moved, and he suddenly felt unusually hot, his black-gold eyes were dyed a faint red, and the look in his eyes at her became more and more dangerous.

She wore a magnolia loose flower gown today, with a butterfly and daffodil skirt, her long hair was simply pulled up, and her face was more delicate than flowers without powder.

Lu Xihe is a girl after all, and I only feel that he is very strange at this time, but I don't know what the reason is.

She looked at herself suspiciously, choosing to be silent. It shouldn't be a good thing to open your mouth at this time.

But under such a blazing gaze, Rao is a person like her, and she also feels hot on her face.

Just when she didn't know what to do, Ning Yan suddenly got up and stood in front of her in three steps and two steps.

He leaned down slowly, propped his hands on the table on either side, and whispered in her ear, "I can't wait." ”

His voice was hoarse, as if he was trying to restrain himself. His breathing, the heat of his body, all told Lu Xihe what he was referring to.

Lu Xihe's face turned red and he wanted to escape, but he was imprisoned by his two arms.

Ning Yan hooked his lips, getting closer and closer to her...

"Miss, tea is here!"

The voice of the pothos sounded "just right" outside the door, and when she opened the curtain, she exclaimed when she saw this scene, "Miss! ”

Ning Yan turned his head, his eyes becoming extremely terrifying. The green pothos trembled, threw the tray on the ground, saw her young lady's eyes asking for help, gritted her teeth and pinched herself, and tears flowed down.

The pothos knelt on the ground with a "plop", looked at the two and cried.

The crying was so earth-shattering that Bai Xi ran in in fright, "What's going on?" ”

When he saw Ning Yan and Lu Xihe, his face changed slightly, and he said with a weak heart: "Your Highness, my subordinates still think... The subordinates didn't see anything, what are you crying Grandma, don't cry!"

Ning Yan was annoyed by the quarrel between the two of them, "Take her out." ”

Lu Xihe and Luluo secretly exchanged glances, and Luluo knew that it was okay, so she rolled her eyes and fainted.

Bai Xi was embarrassed: "Your Highness..."

"Still not rolling?" Ning Yan gritted his teeth and said.

Lu Xihe secretly looked at him, and when he was angry, he looked like an angry lion, but he looked a little cute. She couldn't help but snicker.

"You're laughing at me?" Ning Yan lowered his head and quickly pecked her on the forehead.

He smiled with satisfaction and stroked her face with his left hand, "This is punishment. ”

Lu Xihe was angry and ashamed, and slapped his hand away, "You are a disciple!" ”

"Only for you." Ning Yan's hand was still not honest, and Lu Xihe said angrily: "Get out!" ”

Ning Yan rarely saw Lu Xihe's angry appearance, but now that he was scolded by her, he was in a good mood.

"Angry?"

Lu Xihe turned his face to the other side and refused to look at him.

Ning Yan was worried that she would be anxious, so she had to stand up and say in a good voice: "Take you out to play in a while?" ”

"Your Highness, please, go out."

Hearing this title, Ning Yan felt that it was not good.

"Where do you want to go?" He said to himself.

Lu Xihe said: "I have heard that His Royal Highness is debauched and uninhibited, and he is a frequent visitor to the Chu Pavilion of Qinglou. Now it seems that the rumors are somewhat credible. ”

Ning Yan was told that he was in the sore spot, and his face was naturally good, "Who told you?" ”

"It seems to be true."

"I don't deny it." Ning Yan put one hand behind his back, "But that was a long time ago, I already was..."

The corners of Lu Xihe's mouth rose, "Your Highness, please go back." If you want to have fun, flowers and wine are everywhere. Your Highness should not think that the lower officials are people who want to cling to the powerful and can trample on them at will. ”

Ning Yan's face darkened, "What do you mean?" ”

Lu Xihe raised his head, and his little face looked innocent, "What does Your Highness think?" ”

"Oh, I'm being amorous. Lord Lu. Ning Yan deliberately accentuated the last three words, turned around and left, but stopped at the door. He didn't look back, but said: "The box is a file about the Criminal Department, and if you don't want it, you will burn it." ”

Bai Xi and Lu Pothos were guarding the door, and when they saw Ning Yan walking out with a serious face, they looked at each other silently, and now it was over.

The hearts of the two of them tightened at the same time.

"Why don't you leave, is it an eyesore to stay here?" Ning Yan seemed to be happy with Bai, more like saying to himself.

Bai Xi followed awkwardly, it turned out that His Royal Highness was disliked by others.

"Your Highness looks so pitiful." Bai Xi commented in his heart.

Ning Yan turned around, feeling a little lost in her heart, did she really have no heart?

"Your Highness..."Bai Xi still spoke, after thinking about it, "According to her subordinates, Miss Lu may just not be able to accept it for a while, and she didn't..."

Ning Yan retracted his gaze and laughed at himself: "I deserve it, I came early in the morning to dislike people." ”

"Your Highness, don't slander yourself. You are the god of war of the six kingdoms of Megatron, a victorious general on the battlefield, the people of the world will only respect you and fear you, who dares to dislike you? Bai Xi was still chattering, but Ning Yan's eyes lit up, "Enter the palace!" ”

When Ning Yan made a request to go on the expedition three days later, Emperor Heshun, who had always been calm, was also shocked by him.

Emperor Heshun couldn't guess his thoughts, and said tentatively: "Why are you in such a hurry? ”

Ning Yan said solemnly: "The frontier is not restless for a day, and the country is not restless for a day. The retainers invited themselves to go on an expedition to repel the barbarians and recover the lost land. ”

Emperor Heshun sighed secretly, "What reward do you want?" ”

Ning Yan raised his head and said word by word: "Father, the only thing that the son wants is her." ”

"I didn't expect you to be a lover, I agreed." He Emperor Shun observed his expression, which was exactly the same as his own back then, "Will you regret it?" ”

Ning Yan replied firmly: "I will never regret it." ”

Emperor Heshun knew that this was a character that ten cows couldn't pull back, so he had to say: "On the day of your triumph, I will crown you as the king and make her your princess." ”

"Thank you, Father." Ning Yan got the promise of Emperor Heshun, and a big stone in his heart fell to the ground.

After leaving the palace, he immediately rushed to Lu Xihe's house.

He stood in the doorway, looking at the closed door, but did not break in.

He was angry at why Lu Xihe didn't listen to his explanation, and he was even more angry at himself who was once so unbearable.

Since she dislikes herself, then he will go to the border gate, and when everything is calmed down, it is useless for her to dislike herself. She will definitely become his Ning Yan's wife, and everyone will know that she is his person!

Ning Yan tried his best to restrain himself, stood for about half an hour, and finally left.

A girl in black then flew into the house and reported: "Master, he has been standing for half an hour and is gone." ”

Lu Xihe lay on the rocking chair and slowly opened his eyes, "It's okay." How's that guy? ”

Xing'er nodded and said, "That person has reported this matter to the people above him, and it is estimated that in the near future, the people in the capital will know about your break with the Fifth Prince." ”

Lu Xihe played with black and white chess pieces in his hand, "Good job." ”

Xing'er said worriedly: "Master, in this way, not only other people, but even people from the Five Princes' faction will also turn against you. Are you sure you can handle it? ”

"If you can't deal with it, you have to deal with it, it's dangerous for him to go, the people of the Xiao family can't help, and the only person who can help him right now is me." Do you want me to sit idly by? In fact, she regretted it a little, even if she wanted to force him to leave, she shouldn't use such a hurtful way.

But if he wasn't ruthless, how could he die to himself?

"Master, you have become very strange lately. Xing'er said a lot, when the old pavilion master handed over the Tianji Pavilion to you, it was to assist the next generation of Ming Jun, not to stick to the private affairs of his children. The five princes are just a thousand good people, but they are not suitable candidates after all. ”

Xing'er's words made Lu Xihe's heart sink, was she really emotional?

"He, perhaps, never thought about that position." Whether it was out of affection or reason, she made the same judgment.

Xing'er was expressionless, "He doesn't want to, it doesn't mean that the Xiao family doesn't want to." Master, the existence of Tianji Pavilion is to stifle their thoughts that they shouldn't have, and assist the most suitable person to ascend to the throne of God. ”

"I won't let the Xiao family revivenation." Lu Xihe's reason and emotion tore each other, but after all, reason prevailed. "However, he is a famous general of the Shaking Light Dynasty, and he can't have an accident no matter what."

Xing'er said helplessly: "It's all up to the master, we will send people to secretly ensure the food and grass along the way, at least to ensure the supply of the rear." As for the front line, Tianji Pavilion could not interfere. ”

"It's enough, as long as those people can't move their hands and feet, with his ability, he will definitely be able to..."Lu Xihe couldn't bear to continue.

I only hope that she can arrange everything before Ning Yan leaves, so that those who have a heart will not succeed.

"Don't worry, master, one month is enough." Xing'er comforted her.

Lu Xihe's eyelids jumped suddenly, "I don't know why, I always have a bad premonition..."

"Master, there is one more thing, the person who held you hostage that night seems to have appeared out of thin air, and there was no such person in the rivers and lakes before."

"Keep looking. Besides, what happened to Qiulan has come to fruition? ”

Xing'er said: "Master, her attitude towards the eldest young master is indeed very strange, and the medicinal materials in her hand are also very problematic. ”

"Heh, as long as she doesn't mention you, I'll save her life first."

"Yes." The star quickly vanished.

Luluo opened the door and walked in, "Miss, who is she?" That's amazing! ”

Lu Xihe teased her: "What? Do you want to learn? ”
