"I don't know if His Royal Highness King Yan has arrived, is there something wrong?" Chu Xiuyan came in, and Xiao Ruoxi got up and saluted him.

For Xiao Ruoxi's restrained appearance, Chu Xiuyan obviously didn't like it, and his brows furrowed slightly.

"You don't have to be so reserved."

After that, Wu Zi walked to the main seat and sat down, Xiao Ruoxi pointed to the maid on the side to pour tea for Chu Xiuyan, and then sat down opposite him.

"I heard you're going to the palace?"

Taking a sip of tea, Chu Xiuyan said slowly.

Xiao Ruoxi's body was shocked when she heard this, she just said that she was going to enter the palace, how did he know.

turned to think that Chunyin had just gone out, and Chu Xiuyan had come in now, and it was clear in his heart that Chunyin had betrayed her.

"Yes."

Now that he knew it, there was no need for her to deny it.

It's just that...... How much ability does Chu Xiuyan have, she can even buy her personal maids, it seems that she has to find a time to train those two girls well, otherwise, sooner or later she will be sold, and she will still be kept in the dark?

"Now that you are wanted everywhere in Kyoto, do you know that when you enter the palace this time, you are undoubtedly throwing yourself into a net and killing yourself." Chu Xiuyan still said in an indifferent tone.

"I know." Xiao Ruoxi smiled bitterly: "But my father and more than 100 people from the Prime Minister's Mansion are now all locked up in the prison waiting to die, no matter how I say this, I can't get out of it, I can't ignore them." ”

"So what about after entering the palace? You go to ask the emperor, do you think he will listen to your request? Maybe he won't see you at all, as soon as you appear, he can immediately let people take you down and put you directly in the prison, so if you go into the palace, it won't play any role at all, but you will sacrifice yourself in vain. ”

Chu Xiuyan didn't care if he would hurt Xiao Ruoxi's self-esteem if he said this, he had to tell her truthfully, let her see her ability clearly, he couldn't watch her die.

"I won't go to Chu Xiuran." Xiao Ruoxi knew very well that with Chu Xiuran's long mind of wanting to get rid of Chu Xiuhan first and then quickly, how could he listen to her plea.

"I want to meet Empress Xiao."

Xiao Ruolan is also a person from the Prime Minister's Mansion, she is also her father's daughter, she doesn't believe it, if something happens to her father, she will sit and wait to die.

"She's just a woman in the harem, and you may not be able to do anything with her."

Chu Xiuyan frowned, he was determined not to let Xiao Ruoxi enter the palace, besides, this time there was such a big thing in the Prime Minister's Mansion, Xiao Ruolan might not be implicated in the harem, and it was useless to look for her.

"But what can I do now? Now no one but her can save my father, and even if there is only a glimmer of hope, I will try. ”

Xiao Ruoxi has a firm attitude, this palace, she must go, even if it is at the cost of her life, she will not hesitate to do it, anyway, she is already a heinous sinner now, this time, it should be regarded as atonement for herself!

Seeing Xiao Ruoxi's resolute attitude, Chu Xiuyan sighed secretly, stared at Xiao Ruoxi for a long time, and then said slightly:

"It's okay if you want to see her, but you can't go into the palace." Chu Xiuyan said in a tone that could not be refused.

Xiao Ruoxi frowned, looking at Chu Xiuyan with some puzzlement, not understanding what he meant by this.

"I'll find a way to help you get her out." Chu Xiuyan said lightly.

"This ...... Not so good! Xiao Ruoxi was a little hesitant, did he want to help himself again? How can she meet such a good person.

"It's just a small thing, nothing bad." Seeing that Xiao Ruoxi had some refusal, Chu Xiuyan's face became a little embarrassed.

"His Royal Highness the Yan King." Xiao Ruoxi suddenly stared at Chu Xiuyan with motionless eyes, and was stared at by Xiao Ruoxi so directly, Chu Xiuyan felt that his cheeks were a little hot.

"How...... What's wrong? ”

Chu Xiuyan even began to stutter a little when he even spoke, and he couldn't help but curse in his heart: Damn, how could he become like this.

"Why are you so nice to me?"

Xiao Ruoxi asked with a serious face, she remembered that there was a saying called "Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief." ”

But Chu Xiuyan has always helped her unconditionally like this, but he never asked for anything in return, and he never asked her for anything, so what did he want?

"I ......"

Being asked by Xiao Ruoxi like this, Chu Xiuyan felt a little speechless for a while, why should he be so good to her? Why? It doesn't seem like there's any reason for that! If he wants to be good to her, he will naturally be good to her, where else is there any other reason.

"This king is bored, so he wants to find something to do for himself." Since he wanted a reason, Chu Xiuyan randomly found a reason for himself to prevaricate.

However, his words made Xiao Ruoxi stunned.

Bored?? This...... What is the reason? Just because she was bored, she was mixed into her troubles again and again, Xiao Ruoxi looked at Chu Xiuyan with some doubts, the thoughts of these rich and noble families are really elusive.

Being stared at by Xiao Ruoxi's direct gaze, Chu Xiuyan was afraid that she would ask some more questions that he couldn't answer, so he stood up suddenly, and said with some panic on his lips:

"I'll leave this matter to me to deal with, you just stay in the house, just wait for me to inform you, I still have some things, so I'll leave first."

After speaking, the back escaped from Xiao Ruoxi's sight in a little panic.

looked at Chu Xiuyan's ...... Uh, the back that can be described as running away from the wilderness, Xiao Ruoxi couldn't help but laugh out loud.

I didn't expect that such a dignified and calm person on weekdays would have such a flustered time, Xiao Ruoxi felt that Chu Xiuyan was a little cute for a moment.

But...... Why was he so flustered? Xiao Ruoxi tilted his head and thought about it, but he really couldn't think of anything that could make such a person who had never even had a smile on his face panic, shook his head, and had to give up.

"Miss, what is it that makes you so happy?"

Lian Xiang walked in from outside the house with a plate of snacks, and as soon as she came in, she saw Xiao Ruoxi's smiling appearance, so she asked with a little teasing, she didn't seem to have seen Miss smile like this for a long time.

"Uh...... It's nothing. ”

Xiao Ruoxi was stunned for a moment, only to realize that she was a little out of shape, looked at Lian Xiang, saw the tray in her hand, and asked, "What are you holding in your hand?" ”

Lian Xiang put the things in her hand in front of Xiao Ruoxi, and then said with a smile: "This is a snack specially ordered by His Royal Highness King Yan to be made in the kitchen, let me send it over to the princess to taste." ”

Originally, she had ordered Chunyin to send it over, but Chunyin said that she was afraid of provoking Miss, so she didn't dare to send it, so she asked Lianxiang to help her send it.

Lian Xiang felt strange at the time, this is so good, how could Chunyin offend Miss? Besides, her young lady is not the kind of master who will be very harsh with her subordinates, even if sometimes her subordinates make some small mistakes, the young lady will only say a few words at most, and she will not have to punish her harshly like other masters.

What is it that would make Chunyin hide from Miss like this?

Lian Xiang asked Chunyin at that time, but Chunyin shook her head vigorously, but she refused to say, and later, under her repeated questioning and threats, Chunyin finally nodded and told her the truth.
