Chapter 33: Shaken
As soon as the words fell, Tang Wenqi's face turned pale to bloodless, his heart was even more shocked, his fists under his sleeves were clenched even more, and the anger and hatred surging in his eyes suddenly pressed down his head when he was about to burst out.
It's clear that he's already like this, why don't you let him go?
No matter what Cheng Jiyuan is, now Zuo is just the daughter of a minister, but now he has let his dignified prince end up in such a situation.
There is also Ji Dou......
Tang Wenqi secretly grinded his back molars, and when he caught a glimpse of the person who was still sitting on the side with a light smile on his lips, he hated it more and more in his heart.
It's just that he also understands that the current situation is not on his side, and he tried to calm down before answering in a dumb voice: "Yes, Erchen takes the order." ”
How could Emperor Xiaowen not see the unwillingness in his heart, he sighed helplessly in his heart, and waved his hand casually.
"Alright, let's go down."
Tang Wenqi pursed his lips and got up, but when he raised his head, he inadvertently met Ji Dou's eyes, and he didn't hold it for a while, but it made him look at the hatred in his eyes, but it was only staggered for a moment.
Although he was a little annoyed, he did not regret it.
After all, what kind of person he is, no one knows better than Ji Dou.
It's just that...... Xi shan......
A touch of coldness crossed his face, looking in the direction of Xishan, his eyes flashed as if he had thought of something, and he swept away the previous gloom, evoking the most familiar smile on weekdays, and returning to the gentle and gentle His Royal Highness the Prince.
As everyone knows, after he left, Ji Dou frowned because of his unconcealed hatred, and subconsciously raised his eyes to look at Emperor Xiaowen, but saw that he had already relieved his previous anger and began to discuss political affairs with others, as if Cheng Xiyuan's poisoning had never happened, or it was lightly revealed.
Ji Dou raised his eyebrows slightly, but he didn't mention this matter again, and immediately joined the political affairs.
In the end, he was poisoned, and Cheng Jiyuan could be regarded as a well-known figure in front of Emperor Xiaowen, and the people in the Tai Hospital did not dare to slack off, so they set aside a clean small courtyard for her to rest for a while, worrying about her physical condition.
Cheng Jiyuan wanted to refuse, but he didn't think about it but was repeatedly retained, although he was annoyed, he didn't dare to be too presumptuous in the palace, and took Si Qi to the courtyard next to him to take a nap with his docile appearance on weekdays.
"Girl, are you alright?"
As soon as she entered the room, Si Qi changed her previous appearance, eagerly came to her side, and looked at her nervously, as if she wanted to say something but didn't dare to say nonsense, as if she was about to jump to her feet.
Originally, Cheng Jiyuan was still a little worried, but now she was a lot relieved to see her girl like this, and couldn't help but look at her gently, stretching out her white wrist under her eager eyes.
Seeing this, Si Qi hurriedly got on it, and after a while, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a low voice: "The girl should be fine." ”
Cheng Jiyuan has known this answer for a long time.
After all, Tang Wenqi wouldn't be stupid enough to really do it in the East Palace if he wanted to kill her, so when she saw the osmanthus sugar cake that was obviously drugged on the plate, she was willing to eat the cake as planned.
And according to her guess, Tang Wenqi's next plan should be to do something bad to her and set the relationship between the two, and no matter how he tried or tortured her in the future, it was under his nose.
It's just that no one expected Ji Dou to appear, let alone come in such a timely manner.
It's a pity that I escaped this time, but I don't know where the next one will be.
Especially Tang Wenqi is still the crown prince now, if there is no big mistake, Emperor Xiaowen will protect him no matter what, and it is estimated that this time the matter will be as dumb as the autumn hunt and the return journey.
Thinking of this, Cheng Jiyuan was a little annoyed, but after being angry, he also understood the truth that his arms couldn't twist his thighs.
But if she is kept pressed and calculated, she is not willing to eat this kind of grievance anymore.
If not...... Ji Dou is indeed a good choice.
Cheng Jiyuan sighed lightly, thinking of Ji Dou's squishy demeanor, he inexplicably felt that his temples were protruding, his elbows rested on the round table and pressed the corners of his forehead, and he was thinking about the words that should be said when he saw people again, when the familiar voice sounded in his ears.
"Miss Cheng San, is you feeling better?"
The sudden sound frightened Cheng Xiyuan suddenly raised his head, but he didn't expect to see Ji Dou stepping into the room against the light, the light like a golden yarn shrouded him, the face with a knife like jade hung with a light smile as usual, the peach blossom-like eyes were slightly bent as if the sky was full of stars, and he walked from afar as if he was like a god, until he got closer, he saw clearly where there was a Raush fairy on his body, obviously only that kind of temperament.
Cheng Xiyuan was stunned, suppressed the unexplained throbbing in her heart, stood up and saluted slightly: "I have seen His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
Ji Dou took her stunned appearance into her eyes, and was happy, but in the next second, this person retracted his gaze and changed into a posture that was no different from usual, pouted his lips a little disappointed, and unceremoniously straddled the round stool, his slender fingers bent slightly, and knocked on the table.
Poured the tea presented by the people below, the clear tea soup had no other peculiar smell except for the fragrance of tea, Cheng Jiyuan breathed a sigh of relief and placed the teacup in front of him.
"Your Highness, please use it."
Ji Dou was not polite to her, picked up the teacup and drank it all, and after putting it down, he glanced at her again but saw that this person had no eyesight to see the wood, snorted lightly, and simply came by himself, and only after three cups of tea in a row did he breathe a sigh of relief.
A small muttering suddenly sounded: "Like a cow drinking water." ”
Ji Dou paused, looked at Cheng Xiyuan and narrowed his eyes, hooked his lips and chuckled: "Cheng San's third girl went to the palace, this courage is really a lot." ”
A pun, Cheng Jiyuan couldn't hear the deep meaning of his words, glared at him a little annoyed, but replied with a little weakness: "His Royal Highness the prince is serious, and the courtiers only want the family to be safe." ”
The implication is that entering the palace this time was not the original intention, and I didn't know that Tang Wenqi would be so bold, she just suffered an unjustified disaster.
A victim's posture is full of weight, with low eyebrows and lowered eyes, and the appearance of crying makes people look at it with great pity.
Ji Dou also felt very interesting when he saw it, so he simply didn't expose her dishonesty, and asked about the previous thing with a smile.
"Miss Cheng, have you thought of your previous proposal?"
Cheng Jiyuan was stunned for a moment, her eyebrows frowned slightly, and she raised her head to look at Ji Dou's careless appearance of playing with white jade and white tea, and she was a little shaken at this moment when she had just made a decision.
Will he really take care of himself?
After all, he is also half of the royal family, even if he is really a little dissatisfied with Tang Wenqi, the crown prince, he may not join hands with her to drag him from his high position, not to mention that compared to his relationship with her, Ji Dou is still Tang Wenqi's cousin!
