Finally had a full meal, Qin Xiaoxiao didn't have a single pastry left, and after eating, she secretly hid the plate, and looked around nervously, lest she be discovered by the jailer, in case there were some new punishments, she couldn't stand it.

She waited left and right, and finally the jailer opened the door of the cell, reluctantly let her out, and said coldly; "You're in luck."

Qin Xiaoxiao walked out of the cell, there was a blue sky and white clouds outside, she squinted her eyes to feel the fresh air, she was locked in the cell for a short time, but she lived like a year.

It was snowing lightly outside, Ning Xi took off her coat and put it on for her, and sighed secretly: "Xiaoxiao, let's go back to Beijing." ”

The carriage had already stopped outside the county office, and Ning Xi had already prepared everything, and she knew that she would always feel at ease with him. I didn't see the beard, I didn't see the county order, it was as if nothing had happened.

After getting into the carriage, Qin Xiaoxiao pursed her mouth aggrievedly: "Ning Xi, you can be counted as here." ”

He looked at her quietly, not comforting as before, and said slowly for a long time: "Xiaoxiao, you stay in Kyoto during this time, don't go anywhere else." ”

"Why?" Qin Xiaoxiao asked puzzled, the Ning Xi in front of her was different from before, and her attitude towards her was obviously much colder.

"Because Fengling Country is not as safe as you see, it is not easy to rescue you this time, the battle between the crown prince and the third prince is not a day or two, do you understand?" Ning Xi's expression was serious, even very serious.

He had never spoken to her in such a tone, it seemed to be a warning, and it seemed to have a hint of coldness, she had caused him trouble, and she had also involved the prince, and he had thought about it before, but he didn't think about it so much, but he still did something wrong.

Qin Xiaoxiao gasped, lowered her head and whispered, "I'm sorry." ”

She felt that he had changed, no longer the arrogant boy he had come from the south, he had been slowly changing in the decades he had been in Kyoto, but he had not noticed it.

She touched his hand lightly, this time Ning Xi didn't dodge, he held her hand tightly and was reluctant to let go, his brown eyes stared at her deeply, even if he didn't say a word, his eyes were full of affection, but this time his gaze was a little complicated, and there was also some meaning.

"Ning Xi, are you afraid of something?" Qin Xiaoxiao blinked her eyes and said puzzledly, "You are the prince of Duanwang, and no one in Kyoto can touch you." ”

The corners of Ning Xi's mouth curved, and he smiled self-deprecatingly: "Xiaoxiao, don't you understand?" Ostensibly I was the son of the world, but in fact I was a hostage in Kyoto, and when I was a child, I didn't quite understand why my father was so reluctant to leave him. ”

Qin Xiaoxiao's heart suddenly shocked, she has always lived a carefree life, with the protection of the Qin family, and the pampering of her eldest brother and father, naturally she doesn't have to think about these, but Ning Xi has to think about many things.

"I, I was negligent." She was a little ashamed and pursed her lips slightly.

"Xiaoxiao, sooner or later there will be a battle between the crown prince and the third prince, I just hope that at that time, we will stay away from the dispute." The strength of Ning Xi's hand was a little harder.

He strangled her hand, but even then she didn't let go, everyone knew that the prince and Ning Xi were close, where it was so light as the words said.

"Ning Xi, what can I do for you?" Qin Xiaoxiao asked a little anxiously.

He realized that he was pushing too hard, stroked her white fingers, and said apologetically: "Xiaoxiao, I don't need you to do anything, I just hope you can be safe." ”
