"What are these words?" When Gu Ruoxi heard this, he turned around and said with some puzzlement: "I saved Xu Xian, just for the sake of my friends!" Besides, others are so good, if I die, how can I be born in my heart? You don't talk nonsense, okay? ”

"Miss, it's just a slave talking nonsense." Jin Se muttered in a low voice: "But, miss, what if His Royal Highness King Jing thinks so too......

"What did you say?" Gu Ruoxi asked, and she didn't hear the last sentence clearly.

"Nothing." Jin Se hurriedly replied.

Gu Ruoxi looked at her suspiciously, feeling very inexplicable.

That night, because she slept too much during the day, she couldn't sleep at night, held a book and read it under the lamp at night, and several girls were sent to sleep by her early.

"Is that you?" Gu Ruoxi raised his eyes and looked at the person who came, and said in surprise.

"Why are you here?" Seeing the man sit down on her bed with a grin, Gu Ruoxi's brows suddenly furrowed.

Xuanyuan Jingxi raised his eyes and glanced at Gu Ruoxi fixedly, in the light, his eyes were shining, indescribably charming: "If you don't discuss it with me, you will take it upon yourself to save Xu Xian." You don't think about my feelings at all? ”

Gu Ruoxi put down the book, tilted his head to look at him, and suddenly asked, "Are you jealous?" ”

Xuanyuan Jingxi originally wanted to continue questioning, but when he understood the meaning of Gu Ruoxi's words, a suspicious flush suddenly appeared on his face: "What did you think of me?" Am I that stingy? ”

"Aren't you?" Gu Ruoxi said lightly: "Then why did you appear here tonight?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Xuanyuan Jingxi walked over from the bedside and sat down beside Gu Ruoxi, stared into her eyes and said, "Then tell me, why did you save Xu Xian?" He doesn't seem to be of much use except for a little infatuation, right? As he spoke, he added: "Even infatuation, he can't compare to me." ”

Gu Ruoxi saw his arrogant appearance, and immediately burst into laughter. Then Zhengse said: "Didn't the clouds tell you? Liang Rujun is moving again behind his back, Xu Xian is just cannon fodder calculated by her, the prince has already been assassinated once, I don't want him to have an accident. ”

"Why? Just because he was the first person to come to the door to ask for a kiss? Xuanyuan Jingxi heard this, but his face turned cold.

Gu Ruoxi said: "Anyway, I saved Xu Xian only out of morality, and I don't want an innocent person to be affected by me, there will be no other reason." Believe it or not. ”

Xuanyuan Jingxi heard this, and glanced at Gu Ruoxi fixedly, the expression on his face slowly eased, and after a long while, he asked, "Really?" ”

"Seriously!" Gu Ruoxi replied without hesitation.

Xuanyuan Jingxi looked at it, a smile gradually appeared in his eyes, reached out and touched her sideburns, and said: "

Do you know how angry I felt when I saw Ping'er being carried back? Those girls, I specially got them to protect you. But it's good that you sent my people out to save other men? Do you really think of me? ”

"If the prince is not satisfied, he can remove your people." Gu Ruoxi said lightly.

Xuanyuan Jingxi looked at her appearance of not being able to eat oil and salt, he really loved and hated, and he couldn't wait to catch Gu Ruoxi and beat him hard, but he was reluctant: "If I withdraw people." So who is around you to protect you? ”

"I wouldn't have survived without them." Gu Ruoxi said lightly.

Xuanyuan Jingxi knew that Gu Ruoxi was telling the truth, she had never been a person who could survive by standing under the wings of others. At that moment, he said in a deep voice, "I can trust you, just." You don't have to worry about Xu Xian's affairs anymore. ”

"Do you have a way to get the prince to stop?" Gu Ruoxi raised her eyes and said.

Xuanyuan Jingxi looked at her fixedly, and said, "You know, the imperial brother refuses to agree to him, Xuanyuan Yan has been very crazy recently." ”

"This man is very annoying, I really don't know how he became the prince." Gu Ruoxi frowned and said: "Arrogant and domineering, small-bellied chicken intestines, never care about the consequences of doing things, how did the emperor choose him?" ”

Xuanyuan Jingxi didn't expect Gu Ruoxi to be so disgusted with Xuanyuan Yan, but learning about this made him feel very good: "The prince has a deep affection for you, you don't care at all?" ”

Gu Ruoxi's tone of disgust was indescribable: "Deep love? He is worthy of it! What an insult to this idiom! The prince just wants to hold both of us sisters firmly in the palm of his hand, so that my father has no choice, and he must support him as the prince in the future, right? ”

When Xuanyuan Jingxi heard this, he looked at her in surprise and said, "Xi'er, you really impress me!" I didn't expect you to even guess this! ”

"There is no love in this world for no reason." Gu Ruoxi said slowly: "The process of my acquaintance with the prince was not wonderful at all, but then he chased after me relentlessly, and abandoned my eldest sister to come to see me, do you think he did it on purpose?" Originally, I had a good relationship with them, but it was because of the prince that we got to where we are today. ”

Xuanyuan Jingxi heard this, and slowly stretched out his hand to hug Gu Ruoxi's arm and said, "Xi'er, I have wronged you." ”

Gu Ruoxi shook his head and said, "I just want the prince to stay away from me, no, take his crown princess with me!" From then on they lived their rich lives, and I lived my own ordinary life, and I had nothing to do with each other. ”

"It's a good idea, but unfortunately, the prince won't let go." Xuanyuan Jingxi stared at Gu Ruoxi with bright eyes, and said, "Do you want me to teach him a lesson?" ”

Gu Ruoxi shook his head: "No, you just need to protect Xu Xian, don't be a head-on enemy with the prince, then your situation will be very bad, and the emperor will be jealous." ”

Xuanyuan Jingxi's face immediately lengthened when he heard the previous sentence, but after listening to the latter sentence, the corners of his mouth rose, and he immediately showed a smile: "Are you caring about me?" ”

Gu Ruoxi gave him a roll of his eyes and said, "Okay, I'm going to sleep, you go back!" ”

But Xuanyuan Jingxi stood still and didn't leave, he put on a pitiful expression and said, "Otherwise, I won't leave......"

Before he finished speaking, Gu Ruoxi threw over a teacup, Xuanyuan Jingxi reached out lightly and took it, looked at Gu Ruoxi's cold face, and finally sighed and said, "I know you're in a bad mood, I'll go!" ”

Having said that, he stood still.

Gu Ruoxi was speechless, she didn't know what to do with Xuanyuan Jingxi.

At this moment, Xuanyuan Jingxi suddenly spoke: "Xi'er, now that the marriage contract on your body has been canceled, shouldn't we ......?"

"Lord Wang, you seem to have forgotten that the Queen Mother doesn't like me very much, and it's impossible for us to be good at all, right?" Gu Ruoxi interrupted.

Xuanyuan Jingxi blinked at her and said, "How do you know if you don't try?" ”

"It's too early to say this, and you're in too much of a hurry." Guruo Creek Road.

Xuanyuan Jingxi heard a different taste: "You just said that the queen mother would object, saying that I was too anxious, but you didn't explicitly oppose me, does this mean that you are actually willing to marry me?" ”

Gu Ruoxi was speechless, did she say that? But she really didn't seem to object to that......

"You said I was in a hurry, then Xu Xian came to the door with Xu Shilang! It seems that Jinhou is quite satisfied with him, how can I not be in a hurry? Xuanyuan Jingxi secretly glanced at Gu Ruoxi Road.

"You don't have to worry about Xu Shilang, I will personally explain it to my father." Guruo Creek Road.

When Xuanyuan Jingxi heard this, his eyes lit up!

He's listened to so many things here tonight, and this one makes him the happiest the most!

"Don't forget what you've said." Xuanyuan Jingxi said meaningfully. Swipe up and down.

What answered him was a big yawn from Gu Ruoxi.

Xuanyuan Jingxi's eyes suddenly showed a distressed look, and said, "You have a good rest!" I won't bother you anymore. ”

Gu Ruoxi nodded immediately: "Okay, when you go out, close the window for me by the way." With that, he walked to the side of the bed.

Xuanyuan Jingxi looked at her, his eyes suddenly darkened, and when Gu Ruoxi walked to the bedside, he immediately followed, knocked the beauty down, pecked her the mouth, and gasped: "I'm leaving, if you don't keep it, you can't wait?" ”

Gu Ruoxi didn't reach out to push the hot body on her body, she knew that she couldn't push it, so she rolled her eyes helplessly and said, "Lord Wang, I'm sleepy." ”

These simple three words made Xuanyuan Jingxi's eyes show a trace of distress, after all

was reluctant to disturb Gu Ruoxi again, turned over and got out of bed, pulled the back corners, and reluctantly turned around and left.

Gu Ruoxi looked at the window that had been closed by Xuanyuan Jingxi, and finally closed her eyes slowly, she was too sleepy.

Early the next morning, Gu Ruoxi was still having breakfast, and Mei Xiang and the others came back with a few other girls except Apple.

Gu Ruoxi was pleasantly surprised, and hurriedly pulled Mei Xiang's sleeve and asked, "How is Ping'er now?" ”

"Back to Miss, she is out of danger of life, and she will be cured after half a year." Mei Xiang replied crisply: "Originally, the prince wanted to match the master with another girl to replace Ping'er, but after thinking about it, he still felt that he shouldn't have so many people next to the young lady, and it was more likely to be exposed." So that's it. ”

Gu Ruoxi nodded immediately when she heard this: "What the prince said is good. As she spoke, her eyes swept over the five girls present, and she suddenly said in surprise: "Why didn't the clouds come back?" ”

When Mei Xiang heard the question, she immediately lowered her head: "Back to the master, Yun Duo did not protect her master well, and it was not good to do things, the prince kept her and punished her severely, Yun Duo can't get out of bed now......"

Gu Ruoxi was dumbfounded: "Who said that she was not doing well and did not protect me?" She didn't miss anything! When the prince punished Yunduo, why didn't you explain it to him? ”

"Master, then I want the prince to be willing to listen to the slaves......" Mei Xiang said in a low voice.

Gu Ruoxi thought about it, Xuanyuan Jingxi is such a twisted person, these girls can persuade to move, it is strange. ：

From this point of view, what kind of shock and anger he should have been when he saw Yun Duo and the others go back that day! Otherwise, he would not have punished Yun Duo and the others harshly......

Thinking of this, Gu Ruoxi was secretly surprised, she was so smart, she guessed at once that Xuanyuan Jingxi was venting her anger about rescuing Xu Xian on these girls, otherwise why would he be so angry?

He was angry that he saved Xu Xian......

But the ninja didn't get angry in front of him, and kept trying to restrain it......

Gu Ruoxi felt a headache when she thought about these things, she knew that this matter still left a pimple in Xuanyuan Jingxi's heart after all. After all, a woman tries her best to save a man, if she has no feelings, no one will be convinced at all, and the relationship between the Xu family and the Gu family is indeed very ambiguous.

But he still chose to believe her after all......

Gu Ruoxi felt a little moved in his heart, but he knew that he had to talk to Jinye Hou. Before Xu Shilang's father and son came to the door, she had to make this trip.

Because considering that Mrs. Jinye Hou had been cut off in the past two days, Jinye Hou was not very happy in his heart, so Gu Ruoxi pushed back the time.

On this day, at lunchtime, Gu Ruoxi was still reading in the room. A few maids in the glass

The meal had already been prepared in the dining room, and he immediately came to invite her.

"Miss! Come out and see! The kitchen prepared today's abalone sauce button goose paw, salt and pepper cod...... There are a lot of dishes, and the dishes are more than one grade higher than usual! ”

When Gu Ruoxi heard this, she was a little surprised, she put down the book and washed her hands and followed Liuli to the outside room, and sure enough, she saw that the dining table was full of delicacies from the mountains and seas, which was the first time in her career as a not very favored concubine.

"Miss, did you say the kitchen was mistaken? Bring the eldest lady's food to our house......" Liuli said while giving Gu Ruoxi vegetables.

Gu Ruoxi slowly took a sip of the soup and said calmly: "No, it's definitely not a mistake. It was specially sent for me by the kitchen person, and as for the reason, I think it was because of Aunt Su. As she spoke, she looked down and smiled.

Liuli and Jinse immediately understood what Gu Ruoxi meant, because the person in charge of the feed in the Hou Mansion now is Aunt Su. If it was Mrs. Kashiba Hou, their young lady would never be able to enjoy such a dish.

"Miss, why does Aunt Su want to please us? Now. In our house, shouldn't the most beautiful person be the eldest lady? Jin Se asked in surprise.

Gu Ruoxi smiled slightly, and said slowly: "Because she can see that I don't have a good relationship with my mother, what's the use of her going to please the eldest sister?" It was impossible to help her deal with Madame. ”

Jin Se thought about it, but she was even more surprised: "But, Miss, you can't help her, an outsider, deal with Madame?" This simply doesn't make sense. ”

"This Aunt Su is really smart." Gu Ruoxi smiled slightly and said, "She must already know something." ”

For example, her life experience.

A trace of solemnity suddenly appeared on Liuli's face, and she asked a little nervously: "Miss, then should we keep an eye on this Aunt Su." In case she ......"

"No!" Gu Ruoxi interrupted: "Her main purpose now is to fight with my mother, not to deal with me, she sent these dishes over, one is to curry, and the other is to test to see if I will stir up the situation when she does it." She asked for it. It's just a heart leaf. I can satisfy her. ”

When Liuli and the others heard this, they were silent.

Gu Ruoxi lowered her head to eat, but she didn't move a bite of the special dishes, and only instructed a few girls: "You can divide these dishes and eat them!" I don't have much of an appetite. ”

Jin Se hurriedly said, "Miss, since you have no appetite. The slave and maid returned them to the kitchen......"

When Gu Ruoxi heard this, her eyebrows suddenly rose.

Liuli on the side hurriedly spoke: "Jinse! You're confused! If these dishes are returned, then Aunt Su must know that our lady will not appreciate her kindness! When the time comes, she will definitely think of being wary of our young lady! ”

Jin Se was startled when he heard this, and quickly changed his words: "The slave knows that it is wrong

Finish! ”

Gu Ruoxi smiled helplessly and said, "What's wrong with you?" Let's go eat! ”

The girls didn't dare to say anything more, so they took the dishes and went out to eat.

Dinner was pretty much the same.

Gu Ruoxi didn't eat those additional dishes herself, but let a few girls share them, anyway, those dishes are not poisonous, don't eat them in vain.

After two days like this, when the news reached Aunt Su's ears, a light smile finally appeared on her face.

Compared with the calm after the storm in the Hou Mansion, there was much more chaos in the capital.

After all, Xuanyuan Jingxi still followed Gu Ruoxi's meaning and sent a secret guard to protect Xu Xian secretly.

The assassination of the crown prince was three days later. Upward to the doctor.

That night, it suddenly snowed heavily in Kyoto, and it was already the middle of the night, but when Xuanyuan Jingxi learned that the prince's men and horses were heading towards the Shilang Mansion, he immediately got up, put on his cloak and chased after him with the secret guards.

Mo Yun also followed on the side, he looked at his master's tired appearance, his heart was very distressed, and he had a little more resentment towards Gu Ruoxi: "Second Miss is really, it's good to send secret guards to protect Xu Gongzi, why do you have to go out in person?" ”

Xuanyuan Jingxi glanced at Mo Yun coldly and said, "It's the king himself who wants to go." ”

Mo Yun immediately closed his mouth.

The nocturnal team suddenly quieted down, only the sound of horses' hooves running, and the sound of snowflakes falling, everything around seemed so Ye Jing, Ye Jing was so engrossed in Xuanyuan Jingxi, who was originally engrossed in staring at the movement in front of him, suddenly remembered Gu Ruoxi in his heart.

I remembered the night they first met.

That year, he was only twelve years old, the palace held a New Year's banquet, he couldn't stay during the banquet, so he took advantage of the queen mother and the palace ladies did not pay attention, secretly hid in the imperial garden to play, who knows how long he didn't go, he heard a burst of cries.
