(11) True and false affection
Under Xu Qiangning's sweet words, Luo Xiaoxi actually agreed to the decision to go back to Qiang Wangcheng with him, until she got into the carriage and couldn't believe that she agreed to his request so hastily, Xu Qiangning really liked herself or acted on the spot, she was not sure, after all, he couldn't do without her now. The only thing that is certain is that she seems to have secretly promised him, and her eyes can't help but glance at the sleeping face along the way.
She saw him frowning and covering his heart, her hand immediately covered the back of his hand, looked at Xu Qiangning who opened his eyes, and asked anxiously, "Is there better", he saw her combing her simple bun, a pair of slender eyes full of worry, a trace of long hair on her forehead swept on his wrist, he couldn't help but take her into his arms and said with a smile: "Before the palace, the princess is so worried about the king's body, and the king is very satisfied." ”
This sudden promise made Luo Xiaoxi feel very relieved, and when he was snickering in his arms, Xizhou, who was driving outside, stopped the carriage and said, "Lord Qiqi, I've arrived at the house." ”
In this way, Xu Qiangning personally took Luo Xiaoxi off the carriage in front of everyone in the Qiang Palace, and tidied her hair very gently and considerately, before taking her hand and walking to the mansion. The little maids in the house all looked at each other, although the prince looked gentle on weekdays, but in fact he was an extremely cold person, his eyes were comparable to the sword in the hand of the Xizhou guard, and he would hide when he saw it, but today this is so approachable and smiling is it sure that it is his own prince? There is also the woman brought back by the prince, although the appearance is okay, but there is no half of the beautiful appearance of everyone between these gestures, and the dress of this body is even more shabby than them, the prince, how can she be confused?
Luo Xiaoxi looked at the eyes of the little maid next to her, especially the maid, who looked like she didn't hook up with her prince in the first place, she simply discriminated against her shabby outfit, and raised her head and deliberately asked: "Xu Qiangning, have you abused them on weekdays?" ”
Xu Qiangning's originally gentle expression instantly swept coldly across the surrounding little maids, so frightened that they knelt down one after another, and said that the prince spared his life. Luo Xiaoxi looked at these maids who knelt down and shouted for mercy when they were right, and was holding her breath to speak, but Xu Qiangning covered her hand, grabbed her in front of her and said: "This king has always been gentle, but he rarely punishes his subordinates. It's Xiaoxi, you, who are used to seeing the bloody scenes of the master punishing his subordinates on weekdays, and even the king has been surrendered by you, so these subordinates still have to be cautious when they see you? ”
Who the hell has surrendered to whom, does he have no score in his heart? I have to say how ruthless and ruthless she is, this is as if her tiger has bitten his little white rabbit, etc., this is clearly the poor white rabbit, okay, not to think that she abandoned the stones, aquatic plants and carp and came to this Qiang King City to be his medicine jar, and now it is too much to smear her reputation.
Xu Qiangning looked at the back of the person who walked to the side with his sleeves brushed and asked, "Xiaoxi, where are you going?" ”
"I'm not used to seeing such a big show, go take a breath."
Today, she can see that since ancient times, there have been many struggles in the palace, not to mention the palace that has been treated by Xu Qiangning as a free-ranger, and the beautiful maids placed by others must be indispensable as eyeliner, and she just walked in from the door and found two maids who had practiced martial arts. It's good that she doesn't come, there is no hostess Xu Qiang Ning in this mansion who can be free-range, and now that she is here, it is strange that these maids must investigate her as a mysterious visitor.
Xu Qiangning looked at the angry figure and smiled without saying a word, looked at the people who didn't dare to get up without permission, and said: "In the future, if this king finds out that anyone dares to be disrespectful to the future princess, you should know the consequences." ”
"Xu Qiangning, you cheated me."
Luo Xiaoxi looked at Xu Qiangning, who had told her a string of plans in front of her, and unceremoniously gave the other party a roll of the eyes, she Luo Xiaoxi should not do this kind of thing that is both dangerous and unbeneficial.
is worthy of the woman he Xu Qiangning fancies, so quickly he saw that he was tired of having a cat in his house, it seems that he picked up a cheap princess for nothing this time.
"Oh, my future princess will watch her husband being watched by others, maybe they won't even let go of the gold and silver jewelry I specially prepared for the princess."
But now that person is pressing step by step, this is the best way he can think of. When it comes to money-related matters, he is not afraid that she will not be tempted, but in this case, wouldn't she misunderstand that she picked her up and came to Qiang King City just to let her help? Now that he and her were indistinguishable from each other, he believed she would understand.
The next day, Luo Xiaoxi, who was dissatisfied with Xu Qiangning's calculations, went to find two valuable porcelain pieces for the housekeeper of the Qiang Palace, and took them away after saying that he liked them, because his own prince had ordered that all the needs of this Luo girl should be done in the whole house, and Luo Xiaoxi did not obstruct the matter of taking the porcelain.
Luo Xiaoxi, who had just finished taking the porcelain, summoned the maids of the whole house, and stared at the flustered maids in the front yard while gnawing melon seeds, making their hearts hairy, Xizhou looked at Luo Xiaoxi who put down the melon seeds in his hand and took a leisurely sip of tea, although this dress is very atmospheric, but her posture of drinking tea while crossing her legs and waist is too marketable, I really don't understand why her prince told her such an important thing, and specially asked him to protect her safety every step of the way. Isn't the prince really moved this time?
"Well, this appearance is very symbolic, with fine skin and tender flesh," Luo Xiaoxi pinched the chin of a woman who she looked at with martial arts yesterday, glanced up and down, and said, "Come, you come in a circle and I'll take a look...... Well, this figure is also quite good. What's your name? ”
"Slave...... Slave Snow Pattern"
Seeing this, the other maids speculated in their hearts whether their future princess was going to ...... Punish someone as a warning to others? After all, Xuewen is the most outstanding-looking one in the Qiang Palace, and he had seduced the prince before but was kicked out by the prince, and the future princess was probably going to come to clean them up today, which scared them and trembled.
"Well, this one is very pleasing, isn't it pleasing to look at without being fat or thin? You...... What's your name? ”
The slave smiled...... Met the princess. ”
Luo Xiaoxi looked at the somewhat trembling smile, patted her shoulder and walked in front of Furong, nodded, and before she could speak, Furong reported her life. She looked at Fleur with interest, this Fleur's eyes were full of panic and fear, she played it very well, when she first came in, this Fleur hid behind others, and her eyes did not leave her body, according to Xu Qiangning, she was extremely low-key and cautious in the mansion, and he still can't find out who this Fleur is in the palace.
In this way, Luo Xiaoxi picked the female guard specially trained by Xu Qiangning to listen to the rain, then nodded with satisfaction and returned to the chair, and the remaining maids finally breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, it was a blessing that they were not chosen by the future princess, since the prince left his personal guard Xizhou to protect this woman, presumably, the prince must be extremely fond of this woman, and they naturally did not dare to make a mistake.
"Xuewen, you go to prepare the carriage, smile and listen to the rain to prepare the tea on the carriage, Furong, you come to serve me to change clothes and make up, I will ...... To get out of the house. ”
"Xiaoxi, you actually took the two porcelain vases that the king cherishes the most to pawnshop?"
Luo Xiaoxi, who deliberately took the porcelain bottle and exchanged it for silver taels, and then ordered all the dishes in the major restaurants in Qiang Wangcheng, looked at Xu Qiangning, who was furious, and was very happy in his heart, glanced back at the four people behind him, stepped forward and grabbed his hand, and said very proudly: "Lord, didn't you say that as long as I agree to go back to the house with you, all the things in this palace will be at my disposal?" Now, I just took two useless vases and went to exchange them for some money, so why is the prince angry? ”
She pulled Xu Qiangning into the house, and whispered in her ear: "Since the prince wants to make a play, he must make a full set, if he doesn't give up something, he can't talk about the fierce wolf." ”
Xu Qiangning looked at Luo Xiaoxi helplessly, hugged her into his arms, smiled, and said outside: "Don't be angry, Xiaoxi, if you need anything, just take it, as long as this king has it...... I will give it with my own hands. ”
I haven't seen Xizhou since he returned home, but although Xizhou is a little taciturn on weekdays, he is not an elm, so he still has such a little judgment ability, could it be that she took it without permission?
"The prince really speaks, then I will reluctantly live in the palace for a while, and by the way, I will take those lovely people with appearance signs to visit more in Qiang King City."
Luo Xiaoxi saw him think for a while, pretending to be well-behaved and obedient on the surface, but his hand pinched his cheek fiercely before he whispered: "This matter is handed over to other maids, and none of Xizhou himself has done it to convince your enemy." ”
As he was talking, Xizhou came with a tea bowl, and when he came in, he put down the tea bowl and whispered, "When I came in, I saw Xue Wen peeping." And he went out and guarded the house.
"So, for this bowl of things, this king has to pay for his favorite vase? Luo Xiaoxi, you ......"
Luo Xiaoxi has been practicing light skills with half of the cultivators since she was a child, but she still can't become the thief of the corrupt officials in Ruoqiang City just by virtue of light skills, the reason why she can return her whole body is related to her ears that are different from ordinary people, as long as it is the sound of this neighborhood, even the sound of breathing can't penetrate her ears, and now there is Xizhou guarding the door, according to the original arrangement, there will definitely be no other guards at this time, is it......
glanced at the roof, and immediately knelt down and said, "Lord, the creek will definitely cure your heart disease, and this vase can be regarded as a well-deserved death if it can enter the eyes of the prince." ”
Xu Qiangning also guessed her intentions when she saw her like this, but even Xizhou didn't come in to hint at them, how did she know about someone eavesdropping. However, Luo Xiaoxi had already taken out the dagger he was carrying, cut his fingertips, opened the lid of the teacup, and dripped a drop of blood into the medicine that was still steaming in the teacup.
"Lord Wang...... Please"
Xu Qiangning looked at the bowl of medicine in front of him, and was extremely resistant in his heart, how could he come up with such a bad idea, can he fool that person, not to mention, it is possible that he will be poured to death by this medicine.
Luo Xiaoxi took a spoon and scooped a spoonful of medicine to his mouth, covered his ear and whispered, "If the person on the roof is really not the prince's person, then it is ......" Xu Qiangning glanced at her, then snatched the medicine in her hand, pinched his nose and drank it all, and when he caught this person, he would definitely unload it into eight pieces to relieve the revenge of this medicine.
