When Shangguan Li got up the next day, she felt that her eyebrows couldn't stop beating, and her sleep quality in the second half of the night was really not good.

Looking out the window, the rain had stopped, and a ray of sunlight seemed to be visible between the cracks in the clouds above the bamboo leaves.

Shangguan Li walked out after washing, and there was a subordinate waiting outside, and when he saw her go out, he hurriedly said.

"County Lord, the general said that when you wake up, let you go to Guizhulou."

This name Shangguan Li heard Uncle Sun mention yesterday, that is, when I first entered the villa, I saw the largest and most beautiful building.

Shangguan Li nodded, and after fooling the subordinates away, he didn't go to the bamboo building for the first time, but sneaked to the kitchen first to solve the breakfast problem.

happened to meet Xitu, so I took her by the way.

In the eyes of Shangguan Li, Guizhulou is a standard wooden garden building, but it is much more exquisite than ordinary gardens.

The floor is paved with sunken wood soaked in fireproof herbs, and walking on it gives this wood a faint aroma, so it is very rare.

As far as Shangguan Li knows, most of the people in the capital carve gadgets from sunken wood, but Xuanyuan Ye actually used it to pave the ground, which is really extravagant.

When Situ heard what she said, her eyes lit up, and she looked like she wanted to pull a piece out of the floor on the spot, but fortunately, her mind was not blown away by the morning breeze, and she only dared to think about it, but did not move.

As soon as I stepped on the second floor, a warmth hit me, and the room with the earth dragon rolling in all corners was a little empty, except for a large bookshelf and a long desk, there was nothing left.

At first glance, Shangguan Li felt that this place was in the same vein as the style in the Warm Spring Pavilion, but now she also saw something else.

There doesn't seem to be life gas here.

But the thought was only fleeting, because there was something more surprising to her.

The continuous morning breeze blowing in couldn't stop the bloody smell in the house!

Xuanyuan was wearing a long robe, leaning slightly on the desk, looking out the window, as if he was thinking about something.

Hearing the movement, he turned his head, still wearing the mask that had blocked most of his face.

"The county lord is here, and I want to ask the county lord for a favor."

Situ gasped, not knowing if it was because the tip of her nose was so thick that she could smell the bloody breath, or because of the frivolous tone in Xuanyuan's night talk.

Shangguan Li frowned, knowing that his guess last night was correct, he was indeed injured.

"What do you want me to do?"

"Help to look at the wound, it would be better if there was medicine."

His fingers on the desk moved, slender and distinct, like cold jade soaked in water.

Shangguan Li let out an "oh", but he didn't move, loosened his eyebrows, and said lightly.

"What's not in such a big villa as the General? Besides, the general believes in me so much, and he is not afraid that I will poison me by the way? ”

Xuanyuan Ye moved his body slightly, as if he was touching the wound, he frowned, but he didn't deny Shangguan Li's words, just said.

"Ye also thinks it's not a good idea, but there is no one else in the villa except a few of us now."

Shangguan Li's face was impassive at this time, but he was taken aback in his heart. She said that the road was very quiet, and even the kitchen was only filled with prepared meals, and there was no one to see.

"What, what...... Princess Changle is also gone? ”

Situ seemed to be more excited than shocked.

She didn't want to be with that little girl who was always on top of her for a long time.

Xuanyuan glanced at her, and there seemed to be a smile in his eyes.

"Miss Situ seems to have a lot of opinions about Changle...... However, it is true that she is no longer in Bamboo Rain Villa. ”

After a pause, he looked at Shangguan Li again, and his voice was softer.

"Does the county lord want to know why?"

"I don't want to."

Shangguan Li instinctively felt that what he said would not be a good thing.

But Xuanyuan Ye didn't care if she wanted to say it or not, and said straight.

"Yesterday I entered Beijing to face the saint, and the emperor asked me to marry her."

"What?!"

It was Situ who was shocked.

As for Shangguan Li, a sneer was drawn at the corner of his mouth.

"Oh? Did it turn out that the county lord should go back to buy the dowry first? Congratulations. ”

Xuanyuan stared at her for a long time, and then sighed.

"Alas, it's really sad, I originally thought that Ye and the county lord had been born and died so many times, and there was already a lot of affection between him and the county lord."

Shangguan Li's eyebrows jumped, and he felt that there seemed to be something else behind this sentence.

But Xuanyuan Ye suddenly had a positive color in his eyes, and he took back the hand that was on the case.

"But I refused, so the emperor should have some complaints about me now, Feng Siyao has a secret guard by her side, and it would be a trouble for her to stay."

Even Situ could hear these words.

Difficult, could it be that General Shenwei is the emperor who guards against the Great Zhou?

Really?

No, Situ rubbed his head, should have wondered, is this what she can listen to?

When Shangguan Li heard this, she also had eyebrows in her heart about the injuries on Xuanyuan Ye's body, and after thinking about it, she sat down.

"This time it's a favor you owe, and your arms are outstretched."

"Why? The county lord still owes me two requests, no matter how they are counted, they are all offset, right? ”

Shangguan Li lifted his sleeve, the smell of blood here was the heaviest, although she had been prepared before looking at it, the extent of this injury in her eyes was still a little beyond her expectations.

The wound was deep, and the attacker almost rushed to cut off one of his arms, but Xuanyuan Ye should have reacted and avoided the most vulnerable place.

But even so, the wound that had not been treated overnight was now a blur of flesh and blood, and the sleeve was almost soaked in blood, and it was impossible to see the original appearance of the arm.

Situ exclaimed in a low voice.

"Oh my God!"

She held her breath for a moment, for fear that she would affect the fairy sister.

Shangguan Li looked at the wound, his eyebrows raised slightly, but he didn't react otherwise.

"Then the general wants to exchange a request for this favor? Do you have a clean cloth? ”

Xuanyuan Ye pointed to her feet, Shangguan Li lowered his head, and dragged out a wooden box as long as an arm from under the desk.

When I opened it, it was not only a good quality soft cloth, but also an end to the medicine.

Shangguan Li picked up the cloth casually and began to clean up the excess blood around the wound first, which should have stopped the bleeding first, but she felt that Xuanyuan Ye had rough skin and thick flesh, and it didn't matter if he put some blood - although he seemed to have been bleeding for almost a night.

"Situ."

"Huh? At! ”

"Go get some hot water."

"Got it."

Situ hurriedly kicked down the stairs.

After she left, Xuanyuan Ye answered Shangguan Li's question.

"Forget it, the county lord's request is worth something."
