Chapter 281: Fear
Yang Yunxi naturally deliberately asked Xu Xun like this.
Xu Xun was slightly stunned by the question, and almost subconsciously avoided Yang Yunxi's gaze. In the end, he said lightly: "What's so embarrassing about this? That's not a monkey, it's uncomfortable to be watched by us like this. Besides, since you have entered the palace, you can always see it. Afraid of what? β
When Yang Yunxi heard Xu Xun's deliberate evasion, he couldn't help but sigh. She simply looked at Xu Xun, changed to a comfortable position and sat sideways, leaning her body weight on the soft backrest, and finally slowly spoke: "What's wrong with you and the crown princess?" Why do I always think that you mean to deliberately avoid the crown princess? β
Just now she asked like that, in fact, to put it bluntly, she wanted to take the opportunity to explore Xu Xun. As a result, Xu Xun behaved so obviously, but she didn't know whether to be happy or sad - although Xu Xun and Gu Qingyu were not close friends before, they always got along in harmony and could stand in one direction.
But now......
Therefore, she couldn't help but ask directly. She always had a hunch that if she continued like this, she was afraid that she would really not be able to turn around.
However, Xu Xun was only silent in the face of Yang Yunxi's question.
There was a dead silence.
In the end, Yang Yunxi opened his mouth in disappointment: "That's it, if you don't want to say it, I won't force you." β
As a result, as soon as Yang Yunxi opened his mouth, Xu Xun also made a voice: "Why do you ask me?" Didn't you buy all the incense and your palace maids back? You know that. β
Xu Xun's voice was slightly low, as if there was an indescribable sense of mockery.
Yang Yunxi was stunned by these words, and then smiled bitterly - yes, there is no impermeable wall in the world. Since the green glaze can buy the incense back, why can't Xu Xun know?
After a long time, Yang Yunxi could only sigh: "It turns out that you all know." β
Xu Xun also continued to speak: "You and the crown princess knew each other before entering the palace, and if this happened, you naturally helped her." It's human nature, and I don't blame you. It's just that...... You want to persuade me that she didn't do this, but I don't believe it. Yunxi, I respect you, but I can't listen to you about this, so please don't persuade me again. β
With all that said, what else can Yang Yunxi say? Only a wry smile.
Moreover, from Xu Xun's position, Xu Xun did not have any reason to believe that Gu Qingyu did not do this. One is that there is no evidence, and the other is that others do not have the need and motive.
"But it's true that the crown princess didn't do this." Yang Yunxi sighed, but couldn't help but say so.
Xu Xun raised his head and smiled at Yang Yunxi, but his gaze did not waver in the slightest. Obviously, the thoughts that Xu Xun decided in his heart would not change because of her words. At least, until she can come up with any conclusive evidence, Xu Xun's mind will not change.
"I know you're feeling angry in your heart. But if you believe me, don't just put your suspicions on the crown princess. Yang Yunxi sighed lightly, and in the end he could only say such a sentence.
Yang Yunxi said sincerely, and in the end, Xu Xun's expression shook for a moment, but he still nodded.
Yang Yunxi breathed a sigh of relief slightly, and said in his heart, even if he couldn't clear Gu Qingyu's suspicion, he wouldn't let Xu Xun be calculated without defense.
"Crown Princess...... It's not as generous and benevolent as it seems. Xu Xun got up to say goodbye, but said this again before leaving.
Yang Yunxi watched Xu Xun lift the curtain and go out, feeling slightly complicated. She naturally knew that Xu Xun's words were true - Gu Qingyu was good to her and tolerant and helpful to her, but not necessarily to others.
But what's so strange about that? This is the ...... That's what it is. If Gu Qingyu has always been generous and benevolent, he is afraid that he will die at this time I don't know how many times. Gu Qingyu did something behind her back, even if she didn't know, she wouldn't be naΓ―ve enough to think that she hadn't done anything. In fact, who in the palace does not have some means and actions behind his back?
It's herself, isn't it? So, it's just a normal thing.
Yang Yunxi sighed. At this point, she found that there was no way to untie the knot. This knot has become a dead knot. It's a knot, and it's a calamity. This is a catastrophe between Gu Qingyu and Xu Xun.
It's just that whether she is Gu Qingyu's friend or one of the few people close to Xu Xun in the palace, she can only watch this catastrophe happen, and there is nothing she can do.
This feeling of powerlessness only made her feel unspeakably sad.
In the end, Yang Yunxi sighed again, but tears fell. At this moment, in addition to the sadness of being powerless, she also had a deep fear.
She was afraid that one day, today's situation between Xu Xun and Gu Qingyu would become the end of her and Gu Qingyu.
Today, someone deliberately provoked Xu Xun and Gu Qingyu, and naturally someone else will provoke her and Gu Qingyu in the future. So at that time, can the friendship between her and Gu Qingyu be tenacious enough to face provoking destruction and still be the same?
Or, there is no need for others to provoke at all, such an atmosphere in the palace and the growing suspicion of defense can erode away the warm and soft things between them?
When she cried, Lan Sheng was bluffed.
"Master, what's the matter? Don't cry......" Lan Sheng persuaded incoherently, and hurriedly wiped Yang Yunxi's tears with a handkerchief.
Yang Yunxi cried for a while, but his heart was a lot soothed. Deng Shi was also a little embarrassed: how could she be so fragile? For this idea, I cried like this. provoked Lan Sheng's joke......
"It's just that I'm not in a good mood all of a sudden." Yang Yunxi naturally didn't explain too much, and finally said such a sentence casually and perfunctory.
Lan Sheng didn't think much about it, and said a few more words of persuasion dryly, and finally couldn't help but stomp his feet and said, "Why has the master become like this now?" Where is the previous open-mindedness? It used to be so difficult in the countryside, and the master never cried, why is life better now, but the master loves to cry? β
Lan Sheng's words made Yang Yunxi more and more embarrassed: "But it's me who is not good, I scared you." β
Lan Sheng looked at Yang Yunxi carefully, and saw that Yang Yunxi didn't have any bad mood anymore, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and pouted and persuaded: "The master is pregnant now, and he should be happy." In the future, the little master will be an optimistic and cheerful character. β
