Chapter 291: Escape Plan
Yan Zixi only hated that she hadn't given birth to a pair of wings, otherwise she would have flown out a long time ago. It wouldn't be bad if I could do light work, at least not as passive as I am now......
Yan Zixi looked at the courtyard wall dozens of feet high and was completely worried, did she want to climb it with her bare hands? Yan Zixi quietly slipped to the corner of the courtyard wall, and found that the wall was smooth and flat, and there was no place to put his feet......
No, no, no!
Yan Zixi shook her head and gave up this unrealistic idea.
Since the courtyard wall couldn't be climbed, Yan Zixi could only find other escape paths, she bowed down in the flower garden, carefully observing the patrol routes and shift intervals of those patrol guards.
It was already a hot day, and squatting in the flower garden was even more unbearable, and after a while, Yan Zixi was so hot that she was sweating profusely, and the makeup on her face was completely spent, but Yan Zixi couldn't manage so much now, and it was imperative to be able to escape.
However, it was much more difficult than she had imagined.
Yan Zixi squatted in the flower garden and observed for a while, and found that the routes patrolled by those guards covered almost all the main roads in the courtyard. In other words, if Yan Zixi wants to leave through the gate or back door, she will inevitably be discovered by the patrolling guards on the way.
What's even more angry is that when these guards change shifts, they also maintain that there are people in every blind corner, and they don't give Yan Zixi any chance to escape at all.
It's over, this escape route is also blocked, is there really no way to escape?
Just when Yan Zixi was so anxious that she didn't know what to do, a shade suddenly appeared above her head.
Yan Zixi raised her eyes and saw an umbrella blocking the top of her head, her gaze continued to drift, and a figure of a man in a white costume appeared in front of her - the man Yan Zixi didn't want to see the most!
Li ...... Your Royal Highness the Prince, why are you here? Yan Zixi hurriedly stood up, grinned, and said hello to Li Yuanxiao, the prince of Yuanxia who was holding an umbrella for himself in front of him.
Now that people are under the eaves, Yan Zixi doesn't want to call other people's names anymore, it's better to be a little polite, maybe they will make others happy, and Prince Li is happy, maybe he will let himself go!
"Princess Xiao, what are you doing here in the flower garden?" Li Yuanxiao raised his eyebrows slightly, glanced at Yan Zixi meaningfully, and asked curiously.
"I ...... I ......" Yan Zixi hesitated for a while, her eyes rolled, and an idea immediately popped up in her mind, so she hurriedly excused herself and said: "Oh, this princess sees that the flowers in your flower garden are very beautiful, and she likes them very much, so she wants to pick some and stick them in the house for this princess to enjoy day and night." ”
Well, that's not too bad! Yan Zixi was secretly glad, but the sweat on her forehead was flowing down vigorously, and she didn't know whether it was hot or scared.
Li Yuanxiao let out a sigh after hearing this, and chuckled, "I didn't expect Princess Xiao to be a flower lover, so why bother so much, and come out to pick it in person after suffering from the scorching heat?" It's good to let someone do it. Saying that, Li Yuanxiao shouted in the direction of the courtyard: "Someone! ”
After a while, two maids came and respectfully saluted Li Yuanxiao, "The slave is here." ”
Li Yuanxiao instructed the two maids: "You help Princess Xiao to go back to the house, so that you can serve well, don't be lazy." Also, immediately pick the best flowers in the garden and send them to the princess's house, do you understand? "Nuancai Literature Network
"Yes, the slave understands."
The two maids walked up to Yan Zixi and made a gesture of invitation to her.
At this point, Yan Zixi knew that her escape plan today was completely ruined, so she could only try another day. She didn't want to embarrass the two maids, so she followed them back to the house.
After going back, Yan Zixi took off her shoes and socks, lay on the chair, and pressed for herself. Fang just squatted in the flower garden and squatted his feet sorely and numbly, and he was frightened by Li Yuanxiao again, and he didn't come to his senses until now.
Yan Zixi was massaging herself, and the maids rushed in, holding the flowers they had just picked one by one. Seeing this scene, Yan Zixi was a little stunned, originally thought that Li Yuanxiao was just talking, but he didn't expect that he really asked his subordinates to go to the yard to pick all the beautiful flowers in the flower garden.
After the maidservants planted all the flowers, Yan Zixi's house was already full of all kinds of delicate flowers, as if she was a butterfly among the flowers.
At this time, Li Yuanxiao also walked in slowly, glanced at the flowers placed in the room, hooked his lips and asked Yan Zixi with a smile: "Princess Xiao, I don't know if you are satisfied?" ”
Yan Zixi casually cocked Erlang's legs, and responded with a smile in her mouth: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, I'm really bothering you, this princess doesn't know how to thank you!" ”
"Princess Xiao is polite, it is my honor to be able to make Princess Xiao smile. Princess Xiao has any needs in the future, but it doesn't matter, I will definitely try my best to meet you. Saying that, Li Yuanxiao glanced at Yan Zixi coldly, "But please also ask Princess Xiao to respect herself, but don't do anything stupid." ”
Li Yuanxiao's implication was to remind Yan Zixi not to think about escaping from his mansion.
How could Yan Zixi not know? However, in front of Li Yuanxiao, she pretended to know nothing, and chuckled, like a blooming thorny rose.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said with a smile, how could this princess eat and drink well here, how could she do something stupid? Actually, this princess thought about it all night last night, and she completely figured it out, I Da Xiao and you Yuanxia don't have any grudges, why can't they turn hostility into jade silk? ”
Yan Zixi said as she secretly glanced at Li Yuanxiao from the corner of her eye to see how the expression on his face changed.
After a slight pause, Yan Zixi continued: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, you are the crown prince of Yuanxia, and sooner or later you will inherit the entire Yuanxia Kingdom, if you are willing to give up the alliance with Beiliang and cooperate with our Daxiao instead, this princess can persuade the prince to conclude an alliance with you Yuanxia, never offend each other, and can help you pacify Beiliang!" ”
So far, Yan Zixi can only think of pulling Li Yuanxiao into their camp, so that he can solve a big problem.
Yan Zixi's wishful thinking clanged, but how could Li Yuanxiao be a wasted person? Naturally, he saw through Yan Zixi's intentions at a glance.
"Princess Xiao, are you trying to drive a wedge between my Yuanxia and Beiliang?"
"Not really!" Yan Zixi pretended to be calm and calm, and replied leisurely: "The national strength of Da Xiao and Bei Liang, presumably His Royal Highness the Prince, who has the world's number one intelligence network, knows this better than this princess, if you are willing to cooperate with Da Xiao......" Yan Zixi wanted to speak and stopped, the meaning of the words was already very clear, sometimes you don't need to talk too much, just stop at the point.
Now it's up to people to decide......
