Chapter 21: The Game of Xingli

"Yes! Oh, yes! Konishi lifted his head, which had just been lowered like a thief.

"I told my sister that this pearl is the income of Konishi's labor! But my sister doesn't believe it, this is Xiaoxi's first labor income since she was a child, I gave my labor income to my sister, and my sister can never shirk anymore! After speaking, he grabbed the jade box and held it in his arms.

Dashizi couldn't help but smile when he saw Xiaoxi's childlike appearance, and then picked up today's interesting things to talk and laugh with everyone.

Yuwei was not interested in the topic of their laughter, so she stood up and sat on the verandah of the pavilion and looked out at the view of the river embankment.

Just as she was watching with relish, a man and a woman, one in front of one and one behind, two familiar figures walked slowly from the river embankment, and her heart became heavier and heavier with the steps of the man and the woman.

"Big brother! Why don't you call us out when you're here? The lord shouted before he could ascend the gazebo.

A few people who were still laughing and talking about the past and the present in the gazebo just now suddenly became quiet.

"Xingli, come and see,' Xiao ...... Wei '" The county lord pointed to the plaque on the pavilion and stretched out his voice.

"It turns out that the only wooden pavilion in the center of the earth built by the eldest brother with so many skilled craftsmen is called 'Xiao...... Wei Ting '? The county lord looked jealous.

"Since I was a child, my eldest brother has never put so much effort into giving me a gift except for teaching me? The eldest brother's heart is too biased, has the eldest brother forgotten that I am your own sister? ”

The county lord was yin and yang, and Yu Wei, who was straightforward, had a red face and red ears.

She and Da Shizi have never known each other, and she is a dead person who has been declared dead by the surface, although she can steal life in the center of the earth, but she has also fallen into the dilemma of having a home and not being able to see her relatives.

Da Shizi took great pains to build this pavilion for her, but it was also to alleviate her homesickness, but how could her homesickness be solved by a gazebo?

In addition to making her feel the taste of her hometown, this gazebo is only to increase her troubles, except for her troubles and troubles......

"Yes, this gazebo is indeed called 'Xiaowei Pavilion'!"

"In order to thank Miss Yuwei for taking care of Brother Xi, Brother Xi and I specially built this pavilion as a gift to Miss Yuwei, and besides, you only have General Xingli in your heart, when did you participate in my party with Brother Xi?" The great prince has changed from the wind and clouds of the past.

"So Sister Li, don't be so arbitrary when you speak, you must remember your identity, you are the most honorable county lord of my Erduo family, your upbringing is directly related to the face of our Erduo royal family, this is not the palace, you will shout as soon as you come here, let General Xingli, Miss Yuwei, and Brother Lin Mo think of you? What do you think of our royal family? Dashizi's expression was slightly serious.

The county lord looked at this smiling eldest brother in surprise for a while.

In her memory, except for the death of her mother, the eldest brother has never been so strict as today, although she usually makes her father arrogant, but there is an indescribable timidity towards this eldest brother, she did not expect that the eldest brother would reprimand her mercilessly in front of outsiders.

She froze there with a flushed face, and the foot that had stepped into the pavilion didn't know whether to step in or to step out.

Xiao Xi also stuck out his tongue and sat motionless on the stone bench when he heard this, he had the same innate fear of this eldest brother as the county lord, and this fear was especially worse than that of their father, so he dared to be stubborn in front of his father, but he did not dare to be presumptuous in front of his eldest brother.

"His Royal Highness!" Xingli, who had been standing aside for a long time without expression, said lightly in his usual cold voice: "His Royal Highness the County Lord is just envious for a moment and said the wrong thing, His Royal Highness doesn't need to be so mindful, you see that the steward of your mansion has already come, can you let them put the food on the table first, so that His Royal Highness the County Lord and I can also get a touch of Miss Yuwei's joy." ”

In the face of Xingli's ridicule, Da Shizi didn't care.

"As the saying goes, it's better to hit the day than to change the day, since the general is uninvited today, I naturally can't let the general leave on an empty stomach, Miss Yuwei suddenly encountered a catastrophe, separated flesh and blood, and there is only one relative here, my father and I are very grateful to Miss Yuwei for taking care of Brother Xi, I wish Miss Yuwei a speedy health today! Thank you again for the general's continuous care for Xidi. Then he invited the people to sit down in the gazebo.

Xingli and the county lord deliberately chose the position between Yuwei and Da Shizi and sat down.

The delicacies were put on the table like flowing water, but everyone was depressed by this somewhat strange atmosphere and lost their interest and appetite.

Xiaoxi, who has always been lively and active, also sat silently on the seat and drooped his head, and a tasteless lunch ended in a hurry in the hand-to-hand contact between Dashizi and Xingli and the county lord's meticulous care of Xingli.

Just as Yuwei stood up and was about to leave with Xiaoxi and Lin Mo, the county lord suddenly came to her side.

"You slut, I don't know what kind of fox charm you used, you actually seduced Xingli and my eldest brother at the same time, tell you, you don't daydream and delusion anymore, Xingli is my future concubine, and my eldest brother is the future heir of the Erdo royal family, he will definitely marry a noble woman of my clan as a good match according to the clan rules, and I will tell my father everything that happens here, let's wait and see!" After whispering, she put away her demonic appearance, pretending to be a well-behaved bird and standing back by Xingli's side.

Yu Wei glanced at the county lord with disdain, then turned around and stepped on the sheep intestine path paved with bluestone with Xiaoxi and Lin Mo and left without looking back.

On the way, Xiaoxi scolded the two uninvited guests who ruined the party, he lamented both the wasted wine and food, and his sister who didn't know the times, and vowed to be revenge with his annoying sister, and never make peace.

In the evening, Yuwei sat in the breezy courtyard with her eyes closed, enjoying the silence of the night.

After a long day of distraction and toil, her mind was exhausted to the peak, she was not good at acting, let alone observing, only such a complete relaxation with nature could restore her to the quiet and far-reaching realm that she has always taken as her motto.

Just as Yuwei was interested in the rustling of the leaves, trying to distinguish which worm's murmur, a familiar incongruous footsteps stepped into the courtyard that had been shrouded in night.

In order to keep her mind clear at all times, and to avoid unnecessary trouble caused to herself by being out of control for a while, Yuwei secretly gasped and opened her eyes very lazily.

Xingli, who was standing in front of her, was also looking straight at her with his unrepentant eyes, such a conceited guy who didn't know whether to live or die, Yuwei scolded secretly in her heart.

He stirred up a good meal carefully prepared by others, and also brought a big scenery to his spring heart of the who turned a party of everyone into an ambiguous feast with only the two of them, and now he dares to stand here with confidence, it is really thick-skinned as a city wall.

"It's so late, and the general still has the energy to hang out in my small courtyard? My body has recovered well under the care and conditioning of Dr. Kang, and I really don't need to be visited by General Labor every day. Yuwei teased a little.

"Are you blaming me for ruining the good deeds that His Royal Highness the Great Prince has done with you? Or do you blame me for appearing in the gazebo with His Royal Highness the County Lord? Xingli looked at her with a cold face.

Calm, calm, must be calm.

Yu Wei was aroused by Xingli's words and suppressed a day's boredom, but she knew that the consequence of her not being calm could only be to let Xingli take advantage of it, she was not familiar with everything in the center of the earth now, and the county lord's warning today was still lingering in her ears, for her, who has always been arrogant, it is better to let her live dependent on a man than to let her die, in order to live independently in the center of the earth in the future, she can't be so cowardly anymore.

"You and I are unmarried and unmarried, and it is normal for me to be pursued by men, and besides, His Royal Highness the Great Prince is just thanking me for taking care of Xiaoxi, you don't want to spend the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain." What Yu Wei said was reasonable.

Xingli was taken aback by her momentum, and squinted his eyes to look at her for a long time......

"It is said that Shibei should be impressed in three days, I see that you have made rapid progress in just half a day, I don't know what His Royal Highness the county lord whispered to you? How did you make such a leap forward? Xingli said angrily.

"Everything His Royal Highness the County Lord said to me is heartfelt, I am very grateful to hear it, I have just arrived in the center of the earth, and I still lack the ability to perceive risks, avoid danger and protect myself, so every word His Royal Highness the county lord says to me, I will always keep it in mind, and I will enshrine it as the golden rule of my life in the center of the earth." Yuwei's face was cold.

"So how are you going to follow your golden rule? You're not going to leave me again, are you? A hint of apprehension flashed through Xingli's eyes.

"That's not going to happen, this is the General's Mansion, every grass and tree here is owned by the General, I just want to put myself in a correct position, and I don't want to fall into the whirlpool of power struggles that have nothing to do with me because of a moment of hot-headedness." Yu Wei looked thoughtful.

Xingli froze in place when he heard this, and after a long while, he said firmly: "I won't let you be hurt in any way, no matter who hurts you, I will pay it back a thousand times over." ”

"You took me for a retard!" Yu Wei smiled sadly.

"I'm also a genuine college student, I've been in college since I was a child, and I've read too many stories of power struggle, and few of the protagonists in those stories can die well, let alone ethereal love?"

"In the game of power struggle, love is just a luxury, and in the setting of this game, it is only a power that uses and restricts each other, and there has never been, and there can never be, an ending of growing old together." Yu Wei said this and glanced at Xingli.

"I don't know why you got into this game? But I know that you will not give up easily for my sake, and I already know from the gesture of playing at the same table with His Royal Highness the County Lord today that I am just you, and can only be your spiritual comfort. Yu Wei looked lost.

"Yes, I admit it, I can't help but fall in love with you, I love you very much, you are the first man I fell in love with in this life, but my love is not humble enough to be your spiritual partner!" Yu Wei said lightly.

"My love is selfish, I can't tolerate the slightest flaw, I don't care to compete with anyone, and I don't want to share it with anyone, I want the person I love to love only me from beginning to end, I want to be the only one in his life, this kind of love is the love I want, if you can't give it to me, let me go!" Yu Wei's eyes were full of pain.
