Chapter Twenty-Seven: Reward Her with Twenty Rods

His words poured into her ears one by one, like a magic spell, and she listened to him in a daze, and looked at him blankly. At this moment, his phoenix eyes were rippling, and he could drip water softly. Slowly, he lowered his head and pecked lightly at her rosy lips.

"Remember, you are my Xiao Junluo's woman, don't think about escaping in this life."

When he was on the mountain, he struggled to marry in the church, how could he worship with a strange woman? Even if it's for the task. The only bride in his heart is Zi'er, and he can only worship with her. But the moment she lifted Himpa, he agreed to it. At that moment, what he saw in his eyes was not a female bandit, not the person he wanted to arrest, but a simple, kind, and beautiful girl. He was a little excited.

Later, he insisted on going to the prison beheading platform to watch her head fall to the ground, also to clear himself and give an explanation to Zi'er. Although I knew that it would hurt my heart, it was a punishment for myself.

Now that I think about it, everything is providential, right? His Zi'er, his wife, turned out to be a person all along. He was glad that Xuyang appeared in time to save her, and he thanked God for letting him see the birthmark on her body at the last moment of the Shura Formation, and did not let him make a big mistake.

I don't know if it was the smoke that blinded her eyes, or if she was under a soul charm from him, when Xia Xiaoxuan came to her senses, there was only herself left in the room, and the surroundings were empty, only the flickering light of the candle flame.

But obviously there is still his temperature on his lips, a faint ambergris. His cheeks began to burn, and he shrank sharply and hid his head in the water.

God, she was so bewitched by that slut that she could have been hit and killed. Xia Xiaoxuan, do you still have any potential? Why don't you have a long memory after being deceived by him once, are you brain-dead?

A brain-dead person held half a column of incense in the water, and it wasn't until Hongfeng came in and was startled when she saw her in the water that she came out.

"Girl, you scared the slave to death, the slave thought ...... "No matter how you screamed just now, she still thought that Miss Xia was really drowned in the bathtub?"

Wiping a handful of water droplets on her face, Xia Xiaoxuan looked at Hong Feng and said solemnly: "Hong Feng, you must remember one sentence, you would rather believe that there are ghosts in the world than believe in the broken mouth of a man." "This is her experience, full of blood and tears.

Hongfeng looked dazed, and could only nod woodenly. She really doesn't understand, she has never seen the prince treat any woman so well, but Miss Xia seems to be very unappreciative. However, a daring artist like a girl is not something that a little girl can understand. But one thing is for sure, the girl is a good person.

When Xiao Junluo returned to his room, he was surprised to find that Qingwen was sitting there waiting for him silently.

When he pushed the door in, he immediately greeted him with a happy face, and said sweetly, "Cousin, where have you been?" People have been waiting for you for a long time? ”

Xiao Junluo's face turned cold, he sat down on the chair directly, and asked coldly, "Qingwen, did you sneak away from Jeju?" How can such a big person be so ignorant, what if something happens? ”

Qingwen bit her lip lightly and slowly sat down beside him. The little face was red with a little shyness, "Don't people still miss you too much?" Cousin, I was almost killed by a flower thief this time, and you didn't settle down with me, and you scolded others. ”

"You also know to be afraid? Look you're still running around. Xiao Junluo glanced at her coldly, there was nothing she could do with this cousin, she was really spoiled.

"Cousin, people won't dare in the future. Can you not tell my father about this, or he will definitely send someone to arrest me and leave. Qingwen looked at her cousin with a pleading face, it was not easy for her to see him, so she didn't want to be separated from him.

"I have my own plan for this matter, you go back and rest first." Xiao Junluo sent her away casually, picked up a book of official documents and began to read it.

Qingwen looked aggrieved, but she also knew that her cousin didn't like to be disturbed when he was doing business. I wanted to ask about that woman, but now it seems that I'll talk about it another day. Anyway, she didn't believe that anyone else could take her place in Xiao Wangfu and her cousin's heart, they were childhood sweethearts, and they had known each other for more than ten years.

The next day, Xia Xiaoxuan was asleep and was woken up by Hong Feng, Xiaolan's feet were uncomfortable in the past few days, and Hong Feng has been serving her.

"Don't bother me, let me sleep a little longer." The big lazy worm grunted, covered the quilt again, and began to sleep. Finally, she doesn't have to get up early every day to train those monkey cubs, and she doesn't have to worry about things in the cottage, of course, she has to enjoy the benefits of being a rice worm.

"Girl, will you get up quickly? The prince sent someone to invite you to the hall, and he has been waiting for you for a long time. ”

Hongfeng reluctantly pulled her quilt again, but this time she didn't resist.

He opened his eyes and asked, "What are you doing in the hall?" "In the past, she used to eat alone in her room, and occasionally that slut would come over to join in the fun, why did she invite her to the hall for no reason today?

I only heard Hongfeng say patiently: "The prince said that for cracking the flower thief, he will reward him for his merits." ”

At this time, Xia Xiaoxuan suddenly became clear, and a carp rolled over from the bed. Yes, she helped him solve the flower thief case, and he should reward her. And didn't his cousin also say that when he saw her cousin, he had to thank her cousin again? She must accept this thank-you gift, anyway, don't want it in vain.

After a simple freshening up, Xia Xiaoxuan came to the hall excitedly. There are already a lot of people waiting here, the housekeeper and the subordinates all have solemn expressions, and the ice cube-faced Tsing Yi is the same as always.

At the head is a man in a dark robe sitting at the top, with a black jade hair crown on his head and a moire jade belt inlaid with precious stones around his waist; Underneath are thin-soled boots. Although the clothes are not as luxurious as the little marquis, they are expensive in a heavenly posture, giving people a kind of spiritual shock that will be unforgettable at a glance.

Ever since she entered the hall, all the people who had stood up with their heads bowed turned their heads to look at her. Even Cousin Qingwen, who had been obsessively looking at her cousin, turned her gaze over. It's just that the eyes are not very friendly, and there is a hint of vigilance. Looking at her is like looking at a rat who covets her sesame oil.

Ignoring all the gazes, Xia Xiaoxuan asked the big man sitting straight to the point: "Lord Wang, don't you want to reward meritorious deeds?" I'm a first-class hero, huh? Let's not talk about helping the court crack this abduction gang, just say that I saved Cousin Ling, you should also thank me? As she spoke, she glanced at Qingwen's cousin, who gave her a disdainful look.

"Well, this king has always had clear rewards and punishments." Xiao Junluo put down the teacup in his hand, and looked at Xia Xiaoxuan with a smug face with deep phoenix eyes.

Hearing this, a certain woman's heart blossomed, she could generously not worry about his rude behavior to her last night for the time being, just as if she was kissed by a pet, anyway, she didn't suffer.

Suddenly, King Xiao stood up and changed his tone, "Xia Xiaoxuan, don't listen to orders and act privately, do you know that this is a taboo in King Xiao's mansion, according to the rules of the palace, you should be punished with forty rods." ”

Xia Xiaoxuan was startled and almost jumped up, "Why?" I'm not from your palace, and you don't have the right to do anything to me. "Is there any reason for this, she has made meritorious contributions, and if she doesn't reward her, she will be punished heavily?

"This king said that you are from Xiao Wangfu, and you are." He replied domineeringly and decisively.

"I'm not convinced."

"It's not up to you to decide whether to accept it or not, it's the king who has the final say." This was the first time he had treated her so harshly since she came to the palace. It's not that he's ruthless, it's to make her remember the lesson this time. Even if she is a little clever, if he can't carefully find the clues she left and save her in time, the consequences are really unimaginable.

Such a terrifying scene he never wanted to happen again. Even if she suffers a little and remembers this lesson, it is good that she loses her life, and he regrets it for the rest of his life.

So this time he was ruthless, stopped looking her in the eye, and ordered the guards to take her down.

Xia Xiaoxuan naturally refused to be punished obediently, repelled the guards who came to arrest her, turned around and ran. Those guards naturally didn't dare to come hard, and looked at Xiao Junluo in embarrassment.

"Are you really sure you want to run? Think about the consequences first. ”

A cold voice sounded from behind him, forcing Xia Xiaoxuan to stop. He was reminding him that the brothers of Panlongzhai and the life of Xuyang were in his hands. Whether to kill them or not is all in his words.

clenched his fists, and suddenly turned around, hatred spreading in his watery autumn eyes.

"Xiao Junluo, count you ruthless. You'd better beat me to death directly today, otherwise I'll get all the new and old hatreds back from you. After speaking, he turned around coldly and took the initiative to climb onto the stool. Sure enough, the man's words can't be believed, last night's sweet words, what a lifetime turned out to be false, isn't this the usual method of this demon? Why is she angry? She should practice the heart of Vajra so that she won't be hurt by him again.

Xiao Junluo's heart couldn't stand much better, especially the hatred in her eyes, which pierced his heart again. If he could, he would be willing to bear the punishment for her, but he could not relent.

"This king is not a ruthless person, for the sake of you saving Qingwen, the punishment will be halved, and twenty rods will be fine."
