Chapter 22: The Man in the Secret Room
The man is somewhat similar to Xiao Yichen, who took off his mask at this time, with an angular face, eyes like stars, and sword eyebrows, but the blue-clothed man's lips are slightly thicker, and the bridge of his nose is slightly couch. Xiao Yichen's coldness and arrogance were also missing between his eyebrows, and even if he was trapped here, the face of the man in blue was still calm and indifferent.
"I just want to know when I can get out." Although he has no worries about food and clothing here, he prefers to go out and breathe in the fresh air outside.
Xiao Yichen didn't answer the man's words, but silently placed the food in the food box in front of the man: "It's all what you usually like to eat, it's not early, I'll go back first, you can rest." ”
The man in blue named Xuan'er never looked at Xiao Yichen squarely. Until Xiao Yichen turned around and wanted to leave, the man in blue suddenly stretched out his hand and pulled the cup and plate in front of him to the ground.
Xiao Yichen had just walked out two or three steps, and there was a thud of dishes falling to the ground behind him, he stopped, raised his head and closed his eyes, his snow-white teeth were embedded in his thin lips, just a few seconds, Xiao Yichen did not look back, and resolutely walked towards the exit, he believed that as long as Xuan'er was hungry, he would naturally eat. One day, he will also understand what he has done today.
Back on the ground, Xiao Yichen quickly returned to his bedroom, and he began the life of a crippled prince in a wheelchair.
Xiao Yu hurriedly ran into Xiao Yichen's bedroom, looking a little flustered: "Yu-Yu-Yu-Yu Wangye, princess she-"
Xiao Yichen heard Xiao Yi talk about Xue Yi, his heart sank, thinking of the man in black yesterday night, could something have happened to Xue Yi? Xiao Yichen said coldly: "Why are you so flustered? Princess, what's wrong with her? ”
Xiao Yu patted her heart and replied: "Du Ruo, the maid next to the princess, is crazy!" The princess was crying in the house in a hurry, should the prince go and see? ”
When Xiao Yichen heard this, a hanging heart fell to the ground, and he glared at Xiao Yu fiercely: "What's all the fuss about a maid!" Are you so flustered? ”
"Lord, although Du Ruo and the princess have known each other for a short time, although the master and servant are like sisters, Du Ruo is inexplicably crazy, can the princess not be frightened? Isn't the prince worried that someone will harm the princess-" Xiao Yu stopped talking, glanced at Xiao Yichen from the corner of his eye, and then said, "Or does the prince know why Du Ruo is crazy?" ”
"Yes, I know why Du Ruo is crazy, because she ate my Forgetfulness Pill." Xiao Yichen's tone was relaxed, as if he was saying something very ordinary.
Xiao Yu didn't expect his prince to be so frank, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
"Xiao Xiao, let's go, take me to see how sad my princess is." Xiao Yichen shook his wheelchair out of the house and went straight to Xue Yi's bedroom.
From a distance, he heard Xue Yi's cry: "Doctor, please, you must cure her illness." ”
"All down!" Xiao Yichen didn't enter the house, and the cold air had already drifted into the house. The three or five doctors glanced at Xiao Yichen in a wheelchair, and ran out in a hurry despite Xue Yi's obstruction.
Xue Yi looked at Xiao Yichen, stopped crying, and stared at Xiao Yichen with big red eyes: "What are you doing?!" If you are not satisfied, you come to me alone, you want to kill me or kill me, why are you embarrassed by a girl! ”
Du Ruo went crazy, and Xiao Yichen drove away all the doctors.
Xue Yi's eyes were red, she stared at Xiao Yichen, her eyes were like a sharp blade trying to pierce the brutal prince in front of her, in the face of Xue Yi's silent resentment, Rao is Xiao Yichen, the battle-hardened prince, couldn't help but be shocked, it seems that this Du Ruo is very important to Xue Yi, Xiao Yichen thought of this, and couldn't help but feel a little sorry in his heart, he didn't mean to make Du Ruo crazy, but she saw something she shouldn't see, and he had to make her crazy.
"What evidence do you have that the king made her what she is? Why should this king embarrass a girl? Xiao Yichen played with the black iron ball in his hand, his expression was indifferent, and the scars on his face were twisted together, as if he was crying out for Xiao Yichen.
Xue Yi is not sure that Xiao Yichen did it, but when she saw that he drove away the doctor, she was angry for a while, and now that Xiao Yichen denied it, she didn't ask anymore, what Xiao Yichen said was reasonable, why did a prince run in the middle of the night to make a maid crazy?
Xiao Yichen's hand was on Du Ruo's wrist, staring at Du Ruo's eyes and rolling, he was very curious, the person who drank the Forgetfulness Pill just forgot what had happened recently, the fake idiocy was really crazy, but this Du Ruo's pulse was disordered, and it seemed that there was a toxin in his body that was fighting against the Forgetfulness Pill. Xiao Yichen couldn't help frowning, and carefully looked at the maid in front of him.
Du Ruo's face shape is white, his face is white, his nose is straight and his eyebrows are beautiful, his lips are red and his teeth are white, but a pair of Danfeng eyes are a little demented at this time, but the panic in those eyes did not escape Xiao Yichen's eyes, Xiao Yichen secretly thought to himself in his heart, this maid looked ordinary at first glance, but there was something strange between these eyebrows, as for what it was, Xiao Yichen couldn't figure it out at this time.
Du Ruo sat on the ground stupidly, smirking like a baby.
"How? Why did Du Ruo become what he is overnight? Is she still saved? Xue Yi held Du Ruo's hand and stared at Xiao Yichen with big eyes, as if she saw some hope.
Xiao Yichen clapped his hands, shook his head slowly, and said, "You maid is very tight, she was poisoned, as for what kind of poison this king can't come out." ”
Hearing this, Mama Gong on the side couldn't help but look at Xiao Yichen, as far as Mama Gong knew, Xiao Yichen was a master of using poison, not only can make poison but is also good at detoxification, if even he can't see it, then this Du Ruo is really not an ordinary maid!
Mama Gong looked at Xiao Yichen with some suspicion, and Xiao Yichen just motioned to Mama Gong to take Du Ruo with her eyes. The eyes of the two met, Mama Gong could see from Xiao Yichen's eyes that he was worried about Xue Yi's current situation, Mama Gong was also suspicious of Xiao Yichen, and now she knew that this poison was definitely not cast by the prince.
"Princess, the old slave will immediately send four smart and clever girls to the princess to serve the princess, as for Du Ruo, let's send her out of the palace." Mama Gong said that she was going to drag Du Ruo away.
Xue Yi took the landlord Du Ruo and looked at the palace grandmother sadly: "Mama, although Du Ruo and I have known each other for a short time, but in this palace, I have never treated her as a subordinate, but as my sister, and now that she has become like this, please raise your noble hand and let me take care of her by myself." ”
Xue Yi said pitifully, but Mama Gong couldn't make her own decisions, and her eyes turned to Xiao Yichen on the side.
"Let her go," Xiao Yichen didn't stop him, he looked at Xue Yi, and said thoughtfully: "Mama Gong, our princess seems to be in the limelight, after I left with the princess for a while, I was annoyed that Mama moved the princess's daily utensils to my bedroom in the back house." ”
"Yes." Gong Mama is blessed.
Xue Yi looked at Mama Gong in confusion and looked at Xiao Yichen, is there anything she needs to go out with him?
Mama Gong smiled and helped Xue Yi up: "The prince is sympathetic to the princess, and I want to take the princess back to the Prime Minister's Mansion to visit your father and mother today." ”
When Xue Yi heard this, she looked at Xiao Yichen suspiciously, how could he suddenly have such a good heart and take himself back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, did he find something? Thinking of her true identity and the cold so-called home, Xue Yi's body trembled slightly.
She knew that her father didn't want to see her unlucky daughter.
In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Lan Guang was sitting at the desk, pondering something, Mrs. Qing walked in with a sway, and before anyone arrived in front of Lan Guang, the sweet and greasy voice had already flown into Lan Guang's ears: "Xiangye, you make the concubine easy to find." Mrs. Qing simply sat on Prime Minister Lan's lap and gently shook Prime Minister Lan's shoulders to be coquettish.
"What's the matter with me?" Prime Minister Lan's hand held Mrs. Qing's hand rubbing back and forth on his chest, at this time he didn't have such interest, he was thinking about how to push his daughter Xue Wu out to the fourth prince Xiao Yishuo, Lan Guang has been in the dynasty for more than 20 years, he knows that if there is no support in this court, in the future, the new monarch will be in the dynasty, and his position as the prime minister will be in jeopardy, and now he can only cling to the royal family. But nominally, Xue Wu is already married to the prince of Yu, how can he push out the real Xue Wu and win the hearts of the four princes?
"What else can there be, it's not for our precious daughter, now that girl has been married instead of Xue Wu for a long time, and she has already been married, I don't know in what capacity the master let Xue Wu be born," Mrs. Qing gently bit on Prime Minister Lan's earlobe, and then said: "I heard that the emperor will make an order in the near future to choose a concubine for the four princes." ”
Lan Guang's eyebrows tightened: "Madame doesn't know, I'm also worried about this matter, the four princes choose concubines, and they need to be more than two famous ladies to enter the palace to be selected, and they must be their own daughters, our Xue Wu has actually married the prince of Yu, and it really can't be chosen, alas-" Lan Guang sighed, he once just wanted Xue Yi to marry on his behalf, but he didn't have time to arrange today's back road.
The study was quiet, and Mrs. Qing put away her charm and replaced it with a serious face. At this time, the door curtain was lifted, and Xue Wu walked into the study in a pink dress, and did not salute her father and mother, and stood at the door with a pouting mouth.
Xue Wu really lives up to her reputation, and she is worthy of the title of the first beauty in the Moon Country, even if she is angry, she is charming and moving between her eyebrows.
"Yo, who our baby girl?" When Mrs. Qing saw Xue Wu, she immediately smiled, and walked over to hug Xue Wu's fragrant shoulder.
Xue Wu saw that her father and mother were blessed, and said aggrievedly: "Father and mother's words and daughter just heard it, isn't it possible that I won't see anyone for the rest of my life?!" Xue Wu said as she spoke, and couldn't help but burst into tears.
Lan Guang looked at his daughter distressedly and comforted: "Don't cry, don't cry, isn't Daddy trying to figure out a way?" ”
Just when the family of three was upset, the housekeeper knocked on the door outside the door and replied: "Back to the master, someone from the palace of Yu will pass the word, and the eldest lady and the prince of Yu will come to visit the lord and Mrs. in a while." ”
Madam Qing stood up straight with a panicked expression, looked at Lan Guang and said, "What are they doing when they come back?!" ”
