"I'd rather like to know your options."

I kept my eyes on him, and he didn't have much of a fluctuating look at what I told him, and I had a sense of expectation.

"Childe thinks that if I had listened to him, would I still be here now?"

He smiled lightly and said, "That's right, you are a smart person, you should know how to choose." After a pause, he said again: "You remember, Yi Xuan's words, you can listen to them or not, as long as you are not misled by him." ”

I nodded, and replied to him. When the prince said this, it should make me wary of Yi Xuan, in that case, why did he ask Yi Xuan to teach me chess? After coming and going, I was even more curious about what Yi Xuan was about.

"Tomorrow I will send a doctor to you to take care of your hand injury, and after seven days, no matter what your injury is, you must start practicing martial arts."

I bowed my neck slightly and replied, "The missing beads are clear." ”

He stood up, ready to leave, "Alright, you can rest early." ”

Seeing that he was leaving, I quickly got up and grabbed his sleeve.

He turned to me suspiciously, and his voice was very gentle, "What else do you have to do?" ”

The only kerosene lamp in the room flickered faintly with the shadow of the moonlight, which shone on his cheeks, a mixture of light and dark. His gentle tone and demeanor shook between my ears and eyes, my cheeks flushed, and I quickly withdrew the hand that was tugging at his sleeve, lowered my head and said, "I still have some questions I want to ask Gongzi." ”

He ignored my actions and whispered, "You say." ”

I coughed lightly, and after the expression on my face returned to normal, I raised my head to look at him again, and said slowly: "Gongzi asked me to learn qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, what do you want me to do?" ”

"You don't need to know just yet."

His voice was still gentle, but his tone was irrefutable, but in any case, I had to ask the truth today.

"Since Childe wants me to do something, then I have the right to know what this matter is, if Childe doesn't tell me, then I don't have to work hard for Childe."

I decided that only I could do this, otherwise why would the prince treat me so specially? So I said wildly, but what I miscalculated was that the person standing in front of me was not an ordinary person, he was Fu Yuying.

"You dare to threaten me?" He raised his eyebrows and asked, with a hint of playfulness in his voice, and a hint of mockery, "Song Yizhu, you have no right to disobey my orders, and you are not qualified to question me, otherwise..."

"It's noon." I raised my voice to interrupt him, "Fu'an's death, and even the words you said to me later, were actually planned by you a long time ago, Childe, but if you want to use this method to give me a dismount, you will miscalculate, because I won't buy it." ”

This was the first time I had interrupted him, and although I still had a little awe of him in my heart, I knew better that I couldn't just be bullied and led by the nose, no matter who he was.

To my surprise, he was not only angry when he heard my words, but seemed to be interested, and walked towards me with a light smile, approaching me step by step.

The fear of him forced me to step back, and I was gradually cornered by him. He was a full head above me, standing in the way of me, and I had nowhere to look. He leaned down to look at me with one arm against the wall.

My heart was pounding, I couldn't guess what he was going to do, and the fear in my heart rose to the extreme, but since I had already spoken just now, it was impossible to show that I was afraid of him in front of him. I forcibly fixed my mind, met his gaze without a trace of fear, and asked in a clear voice, "What is the prince doing?" ”

He chuckled, "I'm not wrong. After a pause, he said again: "If you dare to talk to me like this, you will be the only one in the whole Ning Xiao." ”

After he finished speaking, he narrowed the distance between us again, his lips were attached to my ears, and his voice was still gentle: "You do have a lot of use value, but this is not a bargaining chip that you can threaten me, since you can see the truth of the noon incident and know my intentions, then you should be smarter, what questions should be asked, what questions should not be asked, do you need me to remind you again?" ”

"His Royal Highness the Prince." I suddenly raised my voice, "You misunderstood, I didn't mean to threaten you, it's just that this matter is related to me, even if I want to know in advance, it's okay." ”

"Song Yizhu." His voice suddenly became heavy, "Your use value is only on your face, and you have also seen Yanhua's disguise technique, if you continue to be so willful." I killed you in a single thought. ”

My face? I looked at him puzzled, I really couldn't imagine what my face could be of any use to him, although my appearance is not bad, but there are countless people in the capital who are more beautiful than me, and Sister Yan's appearance is a must, why didn't the prince choose Sister Yan to do this.

So what exactly does he mean by that? What can my face do for him?

In the moment I lost my mind, he had quietly left, as he had come, without making a single movement.

My body gradually slid to the ground, and I thought about his words over and over again, but I finally couldn't think of a reasonable reason. I think, if I want to know the truth, then I can only ask others, I'm afraid it won't work on the prince's side, but the entire Ning Xiao people are all under the prince, how can they tell me without the prince's order.

I let out a long sigh and struggled to get up against the wall, catching a glimpse of the chess game in the corner.

Something suddenly occurred to me.

Others can't, but Yi Xuan can.

Early the next morning, I returned to my room after dinner, and waited for Fu Yuying to arrive while practicing Yaoqin.

I waited for a long time and didn't see Fu Yuying coming, so I stopped what I was doing and prepared to go out and ask Fu Yuying if she had anything else important to do today, and she didn't plan to come.

As soon as I got up from the stool, the door was opened, and I saw that it was my mother-in-law, and I was about to ask him if he came, but my mother-in-law spoke first: "Miss Song, my son was assassinated in the courtyard last night, and I am afraid that I can't teach you to practice the piano today, so please practice by yourself first." ”

The crown prince was assassinated? I couldn't help but be a little surprised to hear the news, he left last night without any abnormality, so it must have happened after he left. Moreover, listening to the meaning of his mother-in-law's words, the prince seems to be doing something in Ningxiao. It's just that this place is so remote that ordinary people can't find it, and even if there are assassins, how can no one hear the movement.

Unless... It's your own people.
