Oh? It turns out that Miss Xie is already married, and I thought she was still a big girl with yellow flowers. The monarch chuckled lightly, and gave himself a step down.

Chi Xia pretended to cover her mouth in surprise, raised her hand and gently slapped Chi Wan's shoulder.

"Why have you never mentioned such a big thing to me? Almost made a joke. Chi Xia threw all the mess on Chi Wan, and those innocent eyes blinked, as if the whole thing was her fault, and it was Chi Wan who made her misunderstand.

Ji Wan glared at her fiercely, and really wanted to tear her mouth off. This ability to reverse black and white is really unmatched.

"It's okay, Miss Xie probably didn't mean to." Before Chi Wan could open her mouth to refute, the monarch personally relieved her of the siege.

"Father, when did you care so much about Miss Xie? It really makes my daughter jealous. Chi Xia is still not afraid of death, and the two of them sing and harmonize, and they are alive and well.

In order to live a good life in Shanglin Kingdom, Chi Wan clearly knew that she must not act rashly in front of the monarch. After all, as long as there is a slight mistake, then her previous efforts will be in vain, and when the time comes, let alone an alliance, I am afraid that her life will not be guaranteed.

"Your Majesty, if you have the opportunity next time, the maiden will definitely bring her husband to meet you first." Chi Wan repeatedly emphasized that she was already a married woman, and hoped that the monarch would not have any crooked thoughts on herself.

The words have already been placed there, as for what the monarch thinks, Ji Wan can't guess. Now the king of Chu is still privately sending people to find their whereabouts. Although she mixed up something in Shanglin Kingdom, she didn't dare to be too public.

When the time is not ripe, they will not directly confront the king of Chu unless they have to. If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan, this sentence Chi Wan kept in mind.

"It's not too early, so we won't disturb my father's government affairs." Chi Xia came to the end and offered to leave. After all, if you go too far, it's not easy for you to do it in private, after all, Xie Yutang and Chi Wan still have her biggest secret.

"It's okay, you often come to the palace to play when you have time, it's strange and deserted here." The monarch shook his head, and his gaze still fell on Ji Wan, intentionally or unintentionally.

Although he already knew that Ji Wan was a married woman, this did not affect his special thoughts about Ji Wan.

Ji Wan lowered her eyes and turned to retreat. He never raised his head, and he didn't see the burning eyes of the king.

The two walked out of the imperial study one after the other, and when they reached the corner of the city wall, Chi Wan deliberately distanced herself from Chi Xia and walked behind silently.

"Chi Xia, there are some things that are inevitable to act on the spot, but it doesn't mean that I am a person with no bottom line." Chi Wan stared at Chi Xia's back and said word by word.

Chi Xia's steps forward paused slightly, the corners of his mouth hooked up a sweet smile, and he turned around happily.

"Haven't you always wanted to gain a foothold in the Shanglin Kingdom? I'm doing this just to help you. Chi Xia still looked innocent, and didn't feel that he had done anything wrong.

"To help me?" Ji Wan approached step by step, and her meaningful eyes fell on Chi Xia's body, looked up and down, and finally stopped on her wrist.

"If that's what you're calling a help, there's no need at all." Ji Wan took the initiative to take her hand and shook it off fiercely.

She had long known that Chi Xia was a woman who was good at playing tricks, and it was she who was too careless and unguarded before, so that she was able to talk nonsense in front of the king.

Chi Xia rubbed his reddened wrist and suddenly sneered, "If you want to form an alliance with the monarch, you have no identity, it is better than the person next to the pillow." ”

Chi Wan felt that Chi Xia in front of her was simply unreasonable, she glared at the other party viciously, and left without looking back.

And Chi Xia had been standing in place, the setting sun had stretched her shadow for a long time, casting a black shadow on the vermilion city wall, like a hideous beast, delusional to devour everything.

From that day on, every time Ji Wan appeared in front of the monarch, she would be met with strange eyes from the other party. She tried her best to ignore it, but she had to start being wary of the monarch's private actions.

It is impossible for her to follow Chi Xia all day long, and she can't stop Chi Xia from talking to the monarch in private.

"How? Are you satisfied with my performance today? As soon as the two walked out of the main hall, Chi Xia let go of the hand holding Chi Wan's arm, and the smirk that remained at the corner of his mouth was also put away.

"I hope you can stay the way you are and don't make any shady moves behind your back. Otherwise, you do so at your own risk. Chi Wan responded coldly, warning again and again.

In the eyes of outsiders, I thought that Chi Wan and Chi Xia had a good relationship, and they were inseparable all day long. Coupled with Chi Wan's frequent entry into the palace, there are discussions inside and outside the court, and Chi Wan will definitely be a celebrity around the monarch one day. Even prescient officials have begun to look for Chi Wan in private, intentionally or unintentionally trying to win over the relationship between the two.

Chi Wan didn't say anything on the surface, but the little abacus in her heart made a "snap".

On this day, when Chi Wan went home, she happened to meet Xie Yutang returning from practicing outside.

"How's the whip practice?" She smiled and grabbed Xie Yutang's arm, and as soon as she raised her head, she saw beads of sweat on the corners of the other party's forehead.

I must be tired of training so diligently every day.

She thought in her heart that she was going to go to the kitchen to make soup for Xie Yutang and make up for him.

"That's it, I don't see any noticeable changes." Xie Yutang's tone of response was a little lost, and he glanced at his reddened fingertips, feeling that his training was not enough, or that there was something wrong with the training plan he had made.

"It doesn't matter, as long as the people on King Chu's side haven't found our whereabouts, you have time to train." Chi Wan comforted softly, feeling that it was because he was in a hurry that his training was ineffective.

"Perhaps." Xie Yutang didn't have much to do to go back to the room, and his lonely back fell on Chi Wan's eyes, and he was inevitably a little worried.

She took a deep breath, swept away the gloom that lingered overhead, and headed in the direction of the kitchen.

"It stands to reason that this should be true." Xie Yutang sat at the table, facing the wall not far away.

The walls are densely packed with marks, even the shades are different.

He flung the whip around his wrist, and with a crisp sound of breaking wind, a new whip mark was left on the wall, intertwined with the previous ones, and he couldn't tell which ones were new and which ones were old.

"Isn't it good?" Ji Wan happened to push the door in and witnessed this scene.

"Nope." Xie Yutang shook his head, and his standards for himself became more and more strict. In his eyes, his proficiency in whipping was still not enough. At the beginning, he had seen a master use a whip, and he wielded the whip with one hand, and he was still so inferior to him in the end.

Chi Wan didn't want Xie Yutang to work so hard, so she put the tray on the table and interrupted his practice, "Okay, you've been practicing all day, come and take a break, and come and try my craft." ”

"Okay." Xie Yutang gently stroked her hair and pulled her to sit down.

"This is what I just learned recently, you can try it, if there is anything that needs to be improved." Ji Wan held her chin with both hands, watching him drink intently, her eyes full of anticipation.

"Looks like you're very talented at cooking." Xie Yutang gave a very high evaluation, which flattered her.

"If you like it, drink more." Chi Wan simply gave him the rest of the kitchen. She thought it would taste unsatisfactory and didn't cook much.

"Wanwan, there's something I want to discuss with you." Xie Yutang suddenly looked at her with a serious face, which made Ji Wan's emotions tense up, thinking that something bad had happened.

"What? It won't be that the people on King Chu's side have already ......" This is the worst plan that Chi Wan has prepared in her heart.

If the other party really chased after him so quickly, it would be a big deal to leave this place. Unfortunately, all the hard work during this period was in vain.

"You're thinking too much." Xie Yutang hugged Chi Wan into his arms with one hand, and his big palms with distinct bones wrapped around her small hands.

looked at her with a worried look, obviously so worried on weekdays.

Hearing this, Chi Wan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, "It's good if it's not like this." "With the strength they have accumulated now, they are not yet capable of competing with each other.

"I'm thinking that training whips at the current level is obviously not enough. Therefore, I hope to join the military camp of Shanglin Kingdom to further improve my ability. Xie Yutang put forward his thoughts to Chi Wan with a serious expression, this was his decision after careful consideration, and he would not talk to Chi Wan casually before he thought about it.

He has always felt that he has encountered a bottleneck recently, and even if he practices whip like this, no matter how skilled he is, he has no experience in fighting against people.

"To the barracks?" Chi Wan was stunned for a moment, obviously she didn't expect Xie Yutang to have such an idea.

After all, they finally came to a place to start over. If you really want to go to the barracks, not to mention the hard training every day, you will even have fewer chances to go home.

Ji Wan lowered her eyes a little disappointed, although she was unwilling, she couldn't find a reason to stop him from doing so. She respects Xie Yutang's ideas, and naturally she will not refuse anything.

"If you want to go, you can go, I can rest assured." Ji Wan pinched his fingers, hoping that he would relax. The outside affairs can be handled by her, and he only needs to practice the proficiency of the whip.

"Then if there's anything, come to the barracks and find me." Seeing that Chi Wan agreed, Xie Yutang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that his decision was not wrong.

He subconsciously stroked the whip wrapped around his wrist, and his expression instantly became much more relieved. When he was in Dongxuan before, because there were too many things for him to deal with, there was less gathering and more separation between him and Chi Wan.
