Huo Jinyan didn't let Tang Xi wait too long, Tang Xi sat in the living room alone for a while with distraught, and then he walked in.

"Have you been waiting for a long time?" His cold voice came, but it was slightly warm.

Tang Xi looked up at him, a moment of complexity flashed in his eyes, and then he lowered his head again, and said casually, "It didn't take long." ”

"Well," Huo Jinyan narrowed his eyes, pretending not to see the strange emotion in her eyes, "but what's the matter?" ”

Tang Xi's mind flashed Yan Qing's words again, and he hesitated slightly, but he still didn't mention it again, only smiled faintly, "I've thought about it, since no matter how much you resist, you can't change your mind, so why do you have to do useless work?" So I won't bother to avoid you anymore, but in any case, the answer I gave you is still impossible. ”

Huo Jinyan really doesn't care much about this now, anyway, he has decided to use his method to make her have no choice, and all she needs now is time.

So he raised an eyebrow, "That's all you have to say?" ”

"Also, I'm here for your help." She looked at him, "Of course, if you are unhappy with my refusal to ask for you, you can also not help, after all, I don't want to pay you anything." ”

"......" Facing Tang Xi, who suddenly became so straightforward, Huo Jinyan was slightly stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a smile, looked at her with a little smile in his eyes, and his tone was doting, "It's okay, anyway...... I've been willingly being used by you for ten years, and it's not too bad for a few days. ”

His uncomplaining appearance made Tang Xi a little speechless, she pursed her lips and replied dryly, "I hope your heart can be as open-minded as you say." ”

What's not open-minded? Anyway, even if she didn't beg him, he couldn't have watched her being bullied, but now that she took the initiative, he was a little happy, after all, no matter what kind of opponent she encountered, her first thought was to ask for help from herself, not to confess her identity to Feng Lie...... If she confessed, all her worries would be solved, but she didn't.

"Tell me, what do you want me to help you with?"

Tang Xi told Huo Jinyan about the causes and consequences, including his own plan, "In short, what you need to help me with is such a simple little thing...... It shouldn't be hard for you, right? ”

Huo Jinyan nodded, "It's really not difficult...... But are you sure you don't need me to stand up for you tomorrow? ”

Tang Xi raised his eyebrows, "You also underestimate me too much, I used to be a generation of empresses, although everyone shouted and beat it, but after all, it swept away the internal troubles, and it should already be very powerful among women, right?" So don't just look down on me. ”

Huo Jinyan showed a little smile on his face, "Okay, then it's up to you, tell me if you need help." "That being said, but even if he doesn't have to go, he has to let Eichi secretly follow, otherwise he really won't feel at ease.

"Okay, then I'll go back first." After finishing his business, Tang Xi got up and said goodbye.

However, as soon as she turned around and took a step, her left hand was grabbed, and she turned around with force, and then crashed into Huo Jinyan's arms.

"You!" Tang Xi blushed and pushed him, "Let go." ”

"Even though you said you didn't want to pay, I still wanted it." Huo Jinyan's deep voice said in Tang Xi's ear.

Tang Xi even turned his ears red now, and he wanted to cry without tears, why is the painting style of this product getting more and more collapsed? It's terrible to provoke people.

Although it was useless to know that it was useless to struggle, in order to make his position clear, Tang Xi still symbolically struggled twice, and then ...... Well, it really didn't work.

"Don't move." Huo Jinyan's chin was placed on the top of Tang Xi's head, "Just let me hug it quietly." ”

Yes...... I just hugged it, and I thought I was going to do this and that...... Ahem, Tang Xi felt a little ashamed of his thoughts, and then he stopped moving quietly, and Ren Huo Jinyan encircled her in his arms.

After a while, he slowly let go of his hand, and then touched her head, "Go back, be careful on the road, I will finish what you explain tomorrow, you can rest assured." ”

The blush on Tang Xi's face had not faded, he lowered his head and responded sullenly, and then ran away without looking back.

Looking at Tang Xi's back as she ran away, Huo Jinyan couldn't help but think, when would she be able to run towards her with such brisk steps?

Not long after Tang Xi left, Ying Yi appeared beside Huo Jinyan, "Master, the people sent over there have already contacted those old departments, although they are all willing to help you, but you have to go over and show up, otherwise I am afraid that these people will have suspicions in their hearts." ”

Huo Jinyan said "um", "In a few days, when these envoys are gone, I will find a chance to go back." ”

Ying Yi pursed his lips, "Master, with all due respect, you have done enough for Miss Tang...... I delayed for ten years for the empress, but now I ...... You don't have that much time to waste anymore. ”

"I've got my own measure."

Early the next morning, Tang Xi casually wore a simple and brisk outfit, and then followed Yan Ning to the side of Beihu, they came relatively early, sitting in the pavilion by the lake and waiting.

The first one to come was Qi Yufeng, who had the best relationship with them, he looked at Tang Xi, who was dressed concisely today, and couldn't help but chuckle, "It's the first time I've seen Princess Xi dressed so simply, and I thought it was ......."

"You thought I only loved luxury?" Tang Xi took over with a smile, "It's just a little extravagant in public, and if you dress up so grandly in private, you're sick." ”

Qi Yufeng chuckled, "Princess Xi is still so interesting. ”

Seeing Qi Yufeng sitting down opposite her, talking casually with Yan Ning, her heart moved slightly, and she spoke again, "There is a question I want to ask you directly, but I don't know if you will feel abrupt?" ”

Qi Yufeng glanced at Tang Xi, "Princess Xi has said this, how can I stop it?" But it doesn't hurt to say that. ”

Tang Xi played with the teacup in his hand, looking a little careless, "I just wanted to ask, the Seventh Prince is still staying in Fengyuan...... Is there any other purpose? ”

Qi Yufeng was slightly stunned, and then said with a wry smile, "Princess Xi's question is really direct enough." ”

"So the Seventh Prince will answer or not?"

"There's nothing bad to say, it's just that as a vassal of Fengyuan, the other two countries haven't left, and it will inevitably arouse the emperor's suspicion if I go alone...... I know what Princess Xi really wants to ask, and the princess can rest assured that Yonghe has nothing to do with Shenggu or Beiyang. ”

Tang Xi raised his eyebrows, "Happy!" Saying that, she picked up the teacup and said proudly, "Come on, come on, with the Seventh Prince's happy answer, I will toast you with tea instead of wine!" ”

This sudden heroic energy made Qi Yufeng slightly stunned, and then said with a smile, "Okay, then I'll take it." ”

Yan Ning looked at Tang Xi, who suddenly changed his painting style, and couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, and said with his forehead on his forehead, "The Seventh Prince is not strange, the sister-in-law occasionally has a bad brain." ”

"......" Tang Xi, who was complained about by his brother, rolled his eyes at him and stopped talking.

It happened that at this time, Jiang Zizhong, Li Feng and Li Linglong also came.

Tang Xi's gaze turned between the two, tsk, Jiang Zizhong really doesn't shy away from suspicion? Almost didn't directly tell the world that he Sheng Gu had different intentions, Tang Xi touched his chin, thinking of Sheng Gu's mediocre old emperor, he couldn't help but suspect that all this might be done by Jiang Zizhong alone, if that was the case...... At that time, Feng Lie may not spare him easily.

"The three of you came early." Li Feng's gaze circled between the three of them, and then stayed on Tang Xi's body, revealing an unfathomable smile, and only withdrew his gaze after saying hello.

Yan Ning naturally saw his seemingly ill-intentioned gaze, couldn't help frowning, got up and blocked in front of Tang Xi, "It's long overdue to come as the owner, since everyone has arrived, let's get on the boat." ”

Tang Xi saw Yan Ning's small action, and his heart warmed slightly, remembering how unpleasant this cheap brother was when he looked at him, and then thinking about the peaceful coexistence now, it is really unpredictable.

This is a painting boat, and several people sit down on the set tables, and because the lifting is set up, it can ensure that everyone's vision can see the great scenery on the lake.

The scene after that was a little boring for Tang Xi, a few men were talking back and forth, and she and Li Linglong sat there quietly drinking tea with the two female dependents.

Tang Xi glanced at Li Linglong, today she didn't immediately open her teeth and claws when she saw her, and she didn't even give herself a look, guessing that it was Li Feng who told her something that made her have such a change.

Sensing Tang Xi's gaze, Li Linglong glanced up at her, and then looked away lightly, but it really looked a little changed, Tang Xi smiled noncommittally and looked away.

At this time, Li Feng suddenly looked at her, "Princess Xi must be bored sitting here listening to us chatting, right?" ”

Tang Xi glanced at him vigilantly, and then pulled the corners of his mouth, "It's okay, it's okay, you can just talk about yours, don't worry about me." ”

Li Feng smiled gently, "Princess Xi seems to have a strong hostility towards me. ”

Tang Xi yawned and replied nonchalantly, "You think too much, I'm ...... you Well, not the slightest interest. ”

Tang Xi's words can be said to have not given Li Feng any face, although Beiyang is a big country, but Daqian is a vassal of Fengyuan, and it is not close to Beiyang, even if Beiyang is angry, Beiyang wants to attack Daqian, then he has to pass by Fengyuan, the key is that Fengyuan is not stupid, will he lend the road to Beiyang? Therefore, Daqian treats Beiyang without any need to grovel.

Li Feng is not a loss of an opponent who almost made Tang Xi deflated, when he heard her words, he was able to keep his face unchanged, and even the look in his eyes did not change by half a point, "Princess Xi is really straightforward...... " He smiled, "It makes my heart even better." ”

As soon as he said this, Tang Xi didn't do anything, Yan Ning exploded, "The fifth prince said carefully, the sister is still a woman who has not been out of the cabinet, and if you talk like this, I am afraid that you will ruin her reputation." ”

Li Feng smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry, I was abrupt." After speaking, he looked at Tang Xi again, with lingering affection, "But the so-called fair lady and gentleman are good, in the face of such a moving woman, I will be moved, and it is inevitable, right?" ”

"......" Tang Xi felt goosebumps from his affectionate eyes, Li Feng was going to change a more roundabout way, and the diaphragm should kill her?

Yan Ning twisted her eyebrows and wanted to say something, but Li Feng interrupted, "Brother Yan, don't be in a hurry to deny me, after all, Princess Xi came to Fengyuan, didn't she come to choose a son-in-law?" Isn't it normal that even if I have any thoughts? ”

Seeing that Yan Ning was blocked and speechless, Tang Xi's face was a little ugly and said, "You also said that I came to Fengyuan to choose a son-in-law, what are you a prince of Beiyang to mix in?" And don't you even see how old you are? There are a group of wives and concubines, right? You're not ashamed to say such things to a seventeen-year-old girl? ”

"......" Qi Yufeng was shocked by the skill of her poisonous tongue, and almost couldn't hold back his laughter, so he coughed lightly and didn't laugh on the spot.

It was Jiang Zizhong, who had never intervened, frowned, and looked at Tang Xi with an unkind face, "Princess Xi's words are a bit excessive, right?" Li Feng is the prince of Beiyang, and Beiyang is a big country that can compete with Feng Yuan! The best thing you said is the princess of a country, and the ugly thing is the daughter of Feng Yuan's courtier! Even the emperor of Fengyuan has to be courteous to Li Feng, why are you so arrogant? ”

Tang Xi snorted lightly, "I am the daughter of Fengyuan's courtiers, so what are you?" This kneeling and licking of Beiyang makes me doubt that you are from Beiyang, right? ”

"You!" Jiang Zizhong slapped the table and stood up, "You slander me Sheng Gu so much, what are your intentions?" ”

"I'm talking about you, not Sheng Gu, are you going to spray dirty water on Sheng Gu yourself?"

Jiang Zi almost flipped the table in a rage, but fortunately, Li Feng stopped him in time, "Why should Brother Jiang be angry? Princess Xi is just a little more straightforward, so why bother with it? ”

After speaking, he looked at Tang Xi with that kind of loving eyes, "This king is just twenty-seven years old this year, and there are no wives and concubines in the family, only two girls who have sex with him...... If you don't like it, sell it when the time comes. ”

"......" Tang Xi was simply shocked by his shameless energy, he was obviously sarcastic, how could it be that he was jealous when he got into his mouth? And his eyes are even more terrifying than looking at her with a thousand cuts!

She endured and endured it before she couldn't help but not punch him in the face directly, at this time she also understood that it was really useless for her to argue with him for the speed of her tongue, anyway, the other party had made up his mind to disgust her, and it was useless for her to say anything, so she just replied to him with a smile, "Fifth prince, please respect yourself." ”

"Shy?" Li Feng raised his eyebrows, "Okay, then we'll talk about it another day." ”

...... "Mom, what if you really want to shoot him to death?"

Tang Xi got up, "I'll go blow the wind." With that, he walked straight to the railing on the deck.

Spring is the windy season, standing on the deck, although the speed of the ship is not fast, there is still a wind blowing slowly, which makes the anger in Tang Xi's heart drop a lot, what does Li Feng's actions mean today? It can't be as simple as trying to get her to the end, right? Or did he think that he would be moved by his pretended affection, and then he would not marry him?

Tang Xi was thinking about it, when she suddenly heard the sound of water next to her, as if someone had thrown a small pebble, her eyes moved slightly, and then a smile appeared on her mouth, and she came.

She turned to look at the location of the cabin, and then pinpointed to a corner that only Jiang Zizhong could see and stood still, looking at Jiang Zizhong with full provocation in her eyes.

Jiang Zizhong immediately noticed Tang Xi's gaze, and as soon as he raised his head, he saw Tang Xi's face full of provocation.

Thinking about the new hatred and old hatred before, Jiang Zizhong really hated Tang Xi's itchy teeth, especially her sharp mouth, she really wanted to tear it up.

The more he thought about it, the more angry he felt when he looked at Tang Xi's provocative gaze, and then he slammed the cup on the table, and when everyone didn't react, he suddenly got up and walked towards Tang Xi, "You slut!" ”

He couldn't bear to stretch out his hand and wanted to slap her, anyway, everyone is a prince and princess, and it is not a big deal if there is an occasional suspicion, just slap her, don't hurt her, and then send something a little to make amends, and the other party can only eat this dumb loss.

His hand was about to touch Tang Xi's cheek, and a trace of happiness flashed on his face, but things suddenly changed, only to see Tang Xi show a triumphant smile at him, and then his body suddenly leaned back, and at the same time that he could avoid his hand, the whole person fell into the lake at once.

When everyone came out, they saw such a scene, Jiang Zizhong's hand was still in the air, and Tang Xi had already fallen into the lake.

"Yanxi!" Yan Ning shouted, but he couldn't swim, jumping down at this time could only add to the chaos, fortunately he reacted faster this time, and hurriedly shouted, "Boat family!" Come and save people! ”

However, at this time, everyone suddenly saw a painting boat not far away, and suddenly a person used light power to directly come to this side, and then rushed to the lake to rescue Tang Xi. ”

After finally rescuing people in this chaos, people found out that the one who saved people was Huo Jinyan.

"Lord Huo?" Li Feng narrowed his eyes, "Why are you here?" ”

Huo Jinyan ignored him, and only looked at Tang Xi with an anxious expression, damn it, he shouldn't believe her! obviously said that it was to let Yan Ning fall into the water, but now it turned out to be her!

At this time, Tang Xi had already fainted, Bai Lu was pressing her chest, and after a few clicks, Tang Xi spit out a few mouthfuls of water, and then woke up slowly.

"Yan Xi! How are you! Yan Ning asked anxiously.

"I'm fine......" Her gaze was still a little dazed, and she turned around on everyone's faces, and then stopped on Huo Jinyan's face, "Lord Huo?" Why are you here? ”

Yan Ning hurriedly replied, "You just fell into the water and it was Master Huo who saved you!" ”

"Overboard?" Tang Xi was stunned for a moment, and then gave full play to his acting skills, and a look of horror immediately appeared in his eyes, "Yes!" Drowning! Third brother, I'm so scared! Jiang Zizhong actually pushed me down just now! ”

Jiang Zizhong, who had already had an intuition on the side, immediately sweated on his forehead when he heard this, damn it, she was calculated! Although he knew that no one would believe anything he said at this time, it was impossible for him to be willing to be wronged by her like this, so he gritted his teeth and said, "You are talking nonsense!" I clearly didn't touch you, you fell on your own! ”

Yan Ning, who was sure that Tang Xi was okay, immediately stood up angrily and grabbed Jiang Zizhong's collar, "Jiang Zizhong!" I know you still hold a grudge against Yanxi, but how can you hit her so hard? ”

At this time, the painting boat that Huo Jinyan was riding on before had rowed in front of him, and then everyone heard a familiar voice sound, "It's lively here." ”

Everyone was stunned, looked up, and saw Feng Lie standing on the deck over there.

"Your Majesty?" After being stunned for a moment, everyone knelt down and saluted, "I've seen the emperor!" ”

Feng Lie said "um", and then with the support of his entourage, he walked from the painting boat to the top of the painting boat, looking at Tang Xi, who was covered in water and embarrassed, he frowned slightly, "What's going on?" ”

Li Feng glanced at Feng Lie, and then at Tang Xi, who was passing by pitifully, and sneered in her heart, she was ruthless enough to herself, it seems that this time Jiang Zizhong can only admit it...... Anyway, he also felt that Jiang Zizhong was difficult to take on a big responsibility, but he was just missing a less important chess piece, which was insignificant.

It's just that...... His eyes fell on Tang Xi, he thought that he was coming at him today, but he didn't expect to be put on the table, this woman actually abolished him a chess piece in front of him, this woman must not stay.

After Tang Xi finished speaking, Jiang Zizhong hurriedly defended, "Your Majesty is clear! I clearly didn't touch her just now, she deliberately framed me! ”

Bai Lu said at the right time, "Just now, my princess choked and fainted!" Could it be that my princess will use her life to frame you? ”

Of course, Tang Xi would not use his life to frame Jiang Zizhong, although few women understand water, especially a woman with a noble status like her, but she really understands it...... In the past, she was deeply favored by her father, and often went to the hot spring villa to play, and she begged her father to find someone to teach her to swim, and her father couldn't stand her soft grinding and hard bubbles and agreed.

Yesterday, she went to Huo Jinyan and asked him to find a way to bring Feng Lie over, and when she said that she planned to find a way to let Yan Ning fall into the water, but in fact, she was planning to go on her own, first, Yan Ning didn't know how to water, and secondly, Jiang Zizhong hated himself a lot, so it was easier for him to lure Jiang Zizhong into the bait, and things were more reasonable.

However, she naturally didn't dare to tell Huo Jinyan, otherwise he would definitely worry about his safety and disagree, and even if he explained that he knew water, he might not necessarily believe her, but fortunately she lied to him once.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but glance at Huo Jinyan, who immediately noticed her gaze and turned his head to look at her...... Well, sure enough, her face was ugly, and she looked like she was settling accounts after the autumn.
