Chapter Seventy-Seven: Speak Out
Hall.
At the end of summer, the weather quietly cooled, and the moonlight outside sneaked in through the half-open screen, and sprinkled on the women in plain clothes and hair spilled over.
Xia Zhiqiu trembled slightly, and his face turned pale: "Lord Wang," the kitten-like eyes looked at the man seated, and his voice was desolate: "People in this world can not believe Zhiqiu, only you, you can't help but believe Zhiqiu." One hand holds a handkerchief and rests it gently on his chest.
She didn't wear the pink skirt on weekdays today, she only picked a plain one, the rouge gouache was about half of the amount on weekdays, with a plain hairpin on her head, only pulled a pull, knelt under the hall, pear blossoms brought rain, and only said that she was wronged.
Ouyang Huaiyu looked at her coldly, his face was the same, but the sneer on the corner of his lips couldn't hide it: "The eldest lady doesn't have to cry like this, lest others say that this king treats you harshly?"
"That's not what Zhiqiu meant." With his head down, Xia Zhiqiu's voice was as small as a mosquito.
Playing with the folding fan in his hand, Ouyang Huaiyu's eyes withdrew from her: "You keep saying that the third sister was tied up by thieves and has nothing to do with you, right?"
"Yes."
chuckled: "This king has never told you about the third sister being tied up, today at the door, how did you blurt out that the third sister was tied up?" Where do you know that? Could it be that my unmarried mother still has this ability to pass through the sky? Glancing at her, Ouyang Huaiyu put the folding fan on the table, and leaned forward: "Miss, please think twice."
She didn't even notice that she said this, how could the prince remember it so clearly? Xia Zhiqiu was shocked, and couldn't find the words to justify it for a while, so he could only lower his head and repeat over and over again: "It's really not me."
This weak rhetoric, no one will believe it if they hear it, not to mention Ouyang Huaiyu, a demon who is about to become a refinement, I saw him grab the folding fan and throw it on the ground, and his tone suddenly increased: "I didn't expect that the person I have been protecting all day long is such a vicious woman." Xia Zhiqiu, Xia Zhiqiu, it's really good, this king didn't even find out at all! ”
Xia Zhiqiu was frightened by his scolding, and knelt on the ground, not daring to speak. Now, since the prince is sure that she did it, and the incident happened suddenly, she can't find any excuse for a while, so she can only hope that the prince will be angry, she will apologize and admit her mistake, and the prince can punish her lightly. This is a marriage given by the emperor, and if she pretends to be weak again, the prince's anger will disappear sooner or later.
After a good calculation in his heart, Xia Zhiqiu said softly: "Lord Wang, I know what I am talking about, you don't believe it, I just ask you to dissipate your anger, your body bones have not healed yet," and paused again: "I know that the third sister was tied up, I just asked the little brother who followed you, I was just worried about you, Zhiqiu only put his words here, believe it or not, it all depends on the prince."
The matter was revealed, and when the girl came back, she was neatly dressed, and the bandits didn't succeed when she thought about it, and now the most important thing is the prince.
Ouyang Huaiyu raised his eyebrows, slowly stood up, walked to her side, pinched her chin with two fingers, and forced her to look at himself.
"Xia Zhixue, I warn you for the last time, you'd better settle me down a little in the palace, my patience with your Hou Mansion is limited." His eyes narrowed slightly.
……
"Third sister," one hand stroked the pearl hairpin on her head, Xia Zhiqiu Yingying approached the back room, and her face was completely lost in the horror when she looked at the prince: "I heard that the third sister suddenly encountered bandits on the way back to the house, my sister is extremely worried, come and see, is the third sister okay?"
At this time, Xia Zhixue was lying on the couch and closed her eyes to recuperate, the lotus sat on the edge of the bed and dozed off, Xia Zhiqiu's voice sounded, and the girl was frightened: "Who?" He raised his head smartly, his eyes full of wariness.
Cheap hooves, dare to look at me with this look, really eat the bear's heart leopard gall, Xia Zhiqiu scolded angrily in his heart, and his face also turned cold: "Look at the third sister's slave and maid are still wary of me, my sister really feels heartbroken." As if in his own room, he sat on a stool and watched them for a long time.
His eyes slowly opened, there was no warmth in it, he tilted his head and looked at Xia Zhiqiu: "Sister, thank you for your care, I'm still a young girl, I can't hide my thoughts, and I ask my sister to forgive me," while sarcastically mocking her, she instructed Lotus: "Go and make good tea, my sister is here, no matter how uncomfortable my sister is, I have to entertain her."
This is to say that it is right for Lotus to be wary of her, and secondly, to say that she is not sensible, she is lying in bed, and she still runs to trouble her.
Xia Zhiqiu was not a fool, so he naturally understood the meaning of her words, and his voice was stiff: "Where is the third sister uncomfortable?" Tell my sister, I'll find you a doctor quickly. ”
Two sisters, you say a word to me, and no one will be left behind.
Lotus was quick with her hands and feet, quickly brought the tea, put it on the table, turned around, and said to Xia Zhixue: "The prince is outside, and he said that he wanted to see how the girl recovered."
The face on one side was hooked, and Xia Zhixue leaned lazily on the bed: "Please."
Xia Zhiqiu clenched one hand under his sleeve robe, you little vixen, you don't know shame in front of me!
"I thought your sister would come to see you too," Ouyang Huaiyu said as he walked in, and he was not surprised to see Xia Zhiqiu squatting on the ground saluting: "It just so happens that both of you sisters are here today, and this king has something to discuss with you." I thought that you would be invited in a few days to say, it is better to choose a day than to hit the day, I think it will be today. ”
"The prince is fine," Xia Zhixue struggled to get off the couch, but was gently pressed by Ouyang Huaiyu: "You are so good to lie down and rest, the ceremony will be waived."
didn't want to see the two of them have too much contact, Xia Zhiqiu said, "Lord Wang, please take a seat."
Sitting on the stool beside her according to her words, Ouyang Huaiyu picked up the tea, took a sip, and said slowly: "The third sister has such a thing this time, this king is really unhappy, and now the thief has not been caught, I am really wronged by the third sister."
"Where is the prince," Xia Zhixue smiled: "Originally, Zhixue herself was accidentally targeted by thieves, what is in the way of the prince?"
Although these words were said to the prince, his eyes kept looking at Xia Zhiqiu, and he lowered his head until he looked at the person, and then the corners of his lips twitched, and he took a step closer again: "Sister said yes?"
Her eyes lost her usual calmness, replaced with narrowness and cunning, the corners of her eyes were slightly raised, and she was half-leaning on the bed, Shi Shiran looked at the top of Xia Zhiqiu's head, making Ouyang Huaiyu lose his mind for a while.
Xia Zhiqiu replied: "Yes, what the third sister said is very true." The tone is stiff.
With a smirk, Xia Zhixue touched her arm and said as if she didn't care: "Actually, that day, Zhixue still got a lot of words out of that thief's mouth."
Hearing this, Xia Zhiqiu was obviously covered for a while, and his body instantly became stiff.
