Dong Xing also saw Xie Mingyi, and he was more than half sober.

Seeing that he was just standing there and didn't mean to come over, Dong Xing hurriedly knelt down, only saying that he saw the lost little palace maid here and was about to send her back.

At the end, he apologized and said, "I don't know if it's the people in His Highness's palace, but it bothers His Highness." ”

Xie Mingyi smiled lightly, stared at Dong Xing for a moment, and then said softly: "Then, I have to thank Commander Dong for his help." ”

Dong Xing was so anxious that he couldn't answer the words in a panic, so he only said that he was drunk and dizzy, and he strayed into this place, and he met this little palace maid by mistake.

He instinctively wanted to run away in his bones, and he really felt a fear that could not be described in words-

Xie Mingyi wanted to kill him.

If he said that he was still lucky, thinking that he was just a palace maid, how could the prince mind. Now, just the undisguised coldness in Xie Mingyi's eyes, he shivered, and the spring color in his mind faded in an instant, flashing once again the bloody scene he had seen in the Imperial Prison......

He knelt on the ground for a long time, and suddenly said loudly: "Yes, yes, my uncle said earlier that he had something to say to me, and the villain will retire first." ”

Xie Mingyi finally lifted his eyes, and said with a smile: "Since it is Xu Xiang's advice, then let's go first." ”

Watching Dong Xing staggering away, Wei Shuyao finally relaxed her spirits, and then realized that she was covered in cold sweat, and when the wind blew, she shivered with cold.

She suppressed the confusion in her eyes.

It stands to reason that Xie Mingyi should not have such a deep hatred for Dong Xing. It was a terrible oppression she had never felt, as if the beast had bared its sharp fangs and crushed its prey so fiercely that her hairs stood on end.

And after mentioning Xu Xiang, Xie Mingyi's attitude changed quickly, which made her even more surprised.

But right now, Wei Shuyao had no time to think deeply, so she collected her thoughts and followed Xie Mingyi back to the East Palace.

He didn't walk fast at first, but walked slowly as usual. But gradually, the pace became slower and slower, Wei Shuyao only cared about walking, and coldly bumped into his solid back, rubbing the thick makeup on his face, revealing his original appearance.

Xie Mingyi suddenly clasped her hand and pinched her snow wrist painfully.

His face was slightly gloomy, and he only glanced at her very lightly, then looked away, and ordered Changshun: "And retreat first." ”

In an instant, Chang Shun came to life from his stealth state, and hurriedly took Baozhi and the little palace maid away together.

Xie Mingyi stood still, and Wei Shuyao only felt that the heat on his fingers was slowly cooling, like his cold eyes.

He looked at Wei Shuyao, thinking that when he caught her in the mansion three days ago, he was like this when she wanted to cry, obviously desperate and fleeing for her life, but the tears in her eyes refused to fall.

Two days ago, I was begging him to save me with tears, but now I dare to save people in his name.

This stubborn and stubborn temperament has never changed.

Wei Shuyao was a little nervous by his staring, she lowered her eyes, her fingertips tugged at the thin clothes, and she couldn't say a word of pleading and explaining when it came to her mouth.

She clearly felt the heavy gaze of the man in front of her.

The indescribable pressure made her breathless.

After a long time, she finally heard Xie Mingyi open his mouth, and his voice was deep, "Tonight, where are you going?" Want to escape? ”

Wei Shuyao hurriedly shook her head, her face became more and more pale with anxiety, "What's the matter, I just saw that you didn't come back late at night, and wanted to come out to inquire about the news, how can the concubine and the prince of Rui get along well, but somehow I got lost here......"

The moon is hidden and the stars are scarce, and the cold wind carries a biting coldness.

Wei Shuyao shrank for a moment, and before she finished speaking, a black fox was pressed down with her head and face covered, isolating the cold wind.

Xie Mingyi raised his wrist suddenly, covered her mouth, and pushed her against the trunk of the tree on the side of the road.

Then he leaned down and leaned into her ear.

"Shut up." He commanded in a cold voice.

Wei Shuyao stared at him in astonishment, and saw that in those lacquer-colored eyes, the mirror was as calm as water.

But he pressed her against the tree, so tightly that her clothes were so soft that she almost touched his.

The scorching smell is enveloped by a faint scent of cedar.

Wei Shuyao remembered in a trance that one winter, he also held her down so closely...... His heart was beating harder, and he leaned back tensively, stiffly caught between his arms.

The clouds gradually dispersed, and the hazy clear light fell, sprinkling on the delicate figure, making her face glow with a moist luster.

Her whole body was wrapped in a black fox, leaving only a pair of eyes as clear as water to look at him, like a poor little fox.

Innocent and seductive.

She just looked at Xie Mingyi with her head held high, not knowing what was going on, her eyes were full of ignorance.

The two were very close, and Xie Mingyi's breathing suddenly became a little heavier.

His voice was extremely low and slightly hoarse: "Someone is coming." ”

Wei Shuyao's eyes widened and she became nervous. She gathered her big slump and lowered her eyes to look at the shadows of two people on the ground.

Xie Mingyi squinted his eyes and looked at her face slightly, from her smooth forehead, fair cheeks, to the tip of her reddish nose.

His gaze was fixed on her face, and his eyes were dark, as dark as the deepest blackness of the night.

Wei Shuyao became more and more flustered by his staring, and her back was uncomfortable, and she just wanted to move her body, but she was clenched by a powerful arm.

His palms were hot, sticking to her skin through her clothes, making her tense even tighter.

Xu is back pain, Xu is almost unable to stand, Wei Shuyao's eyes were dyed with mist, and tears gradually appeared.

"Are you gone?" She asked pitifully silently.

Xie Mingyi supported the trunk of the tree with one arm and wrapped his arms around her waist, and suddenly let go of the palm that was covering her.

Because...... Her slightly hot breath wet his palms as she spoke, tickling like a feather brushing the tip of his heart, making him feel quite uncomfortable.

His gaze paused for a moment on his delicate lips, and his Adam's apple rolled lightly.

Wei Shuyao was stunned, and before she could bow her head, as soon as it was hot in front of her, the person was completely confined by the long body that was suddenly approaching her.

Xie Mingyi wrapped his arms around her waist and pressed her into his arms, forcing her cheeks against his chest.

Xu Shuangyu, who was in the dark, stood on tiptoe and looked at it for a long time, only to see Xie Mingyi blocking the person, and his black fox wrapped the person in a ball, and he could vaguely distinguish the water-red skirt under the big pestle.

In the hazy night, from a distance, I only feel that the two of them behave intimately.

After looking at it twice, he still couldn't see the person's appearance clearly, and Xu Shuangyu was afraid that he would find out, so he hurriedly turned around and left.

Wei Shuyao stiffened there, it was pitch black in front of her, and she could only smell the woody aroma and faint wine aroma on Xie Mingyi's body. She listened to the powerful heartbeat in his chest, feeling a little dizzy.

It wasn't until the faint footsteps faded away that Xie Mingyi let go of her and said, "The person is gone." ”

Wei Shuyao was still stiff and motionless.

Xie Mingyi frowned, watching her thin shoulders tremble slightly, and the fingers clenched on her side had already poured out her anxiety, and she wanted to speak and stopped.

Xie Mingyi pursed her thin lips lightly and called her name: "Wei Shuyao." ”

Wei Shuyao's long and thick eyelashes trembled twice, and finally slowly condensed her fluttering eyes.

Xie Mingyi looked indifferent, suddenly raised his wrist, twisted a strand of green silk scattered by her fingertips, and casually pulled the black hair behind her ear.

"Tonight's affair, lonely and you have settled."

The cold wind blew on his face, and the overlapping shadows on the ground seemed to be blown cold.

Xie Mingyi didn't look at her again, his wrist under his sleeve moved slightly, and finally slowly retracted his fingers, and walked back with a step.

Wei Shuyao looked at his back as he left, and pursed her lips. The long figure turned the corner of Lang Yuan, followed the footsteps and disappeared completely.

Wei Shuyao raised her hand, rubbed her stiff face, and slowly walked back along the path.

When she moved, she realized that she was so stiff that her legs could barely take a step, her back was covered with sweat, and the wind was so cold that it went straight to her heart.

cold, like his cold lacquer eyes.

When Wei Shuyao returned to the library pavilion, Baozhi hurriedly came forward to serve her and changed into dried clothes.

Wei Shuyao was still stunned and didn't say a word.

Baozhi looked at her worriedly, wanting to ask Xie Mingyi if he had made things difficult for her, but in the end, he just silently stuffed her with a hand stove.

Perhaps for Wei Shuyao's sake, Changshun did not blame Baozhi too much, and only reprimanded her for kneeling for an hour tomorrow. Baozhi didn't take it to heart, since the queen died, she understood that she could live in this deep palace.

But the little master is different......

Baozhi has been guarding Wei Shuyao, only feeling that she is a little absent-minded, as if she is thinking about something.

It wasn't until Changshun's inquiry sounded outside the door that Wei Shuyao came back to her senses.

Changshun is the big guy who came to get Xie Mingyi. Wei Shuyao frowned, lowered her eyes and hesitated for a moment, and said, "I'll go and pay it back in person." ”

Changshun raised his eyes in amazement, and saw that Wei Shuyao had really stepped out of the main hall.

The "creaking" sound of the wooden door closing was slightly harsh in the silence of the night. Wei Shuyao took the palace lamp in Changshun's hand and looked sideways slightly.

"Grandpa Cui, please lead the way?"

Chang Shun looked down, made a gesture of please, and led her to the dormitory.

The night was chilly, and the palace under the dark night was full of candlelight, which was especially conspicuous in the dark night.

When she walked to the dormitory, Wei Shuyao saw a graceful young woman standing in front of the steps from a distance, very familiar, and she couldn't help but be stunned.

Seeing her puzzled look, Xu Shun said in a low voice: "It's the daughter of Xu Xiang, who upset His Royal Highness at the banquet and came to make amends." His Highness didn't want to see her, and she refused to leave, so she had to go. ”

Wei Shuyao bowed her head and walked faster.

She didn't have much contact with Xu Shuangyu, and the only head-to-head confrontation was when she met Xu Shuangyu outside Wenfang Pavilion after her father was imprisoned.

After the decline of the government, many powerful people also mocked her openly and secretly. But Xu Shuangyu splashed her with tea in front of everyone, pulled out her hairpin and threw it on the ground.

It was pouring rain that day, and she ran to pick up the bird's golden hairpin in the rain, but Xu Shuangyu crushed her slender fingers.

"Heh, the first noble girl in the capital? It should be kneeling and a woman! At that time, Xu Shuangyu raised her phoenix eyes and smiled softly, but the strength under her feet gradually increased.

It was only then that Wei Shuyao knew that Xu Shuangyu hated herself.

When she returned, she fell seriously ill, and it was not until the government raided her house that she got better.

Wei Shuyao entered the dormitory and found that Xie Mingyi was not in the dormitory.

It was doubts, and subconsciously glanced at the study again, and sure enough, I saw him.

She looked through the gap in the shelves and saw the figure on the other side, and couldn't help but see God.

There were only a few sticks of wax left on the tall flower and bird candlestick standing in the corner, and the soft thin light sprinkled on the delicate face, as if the air also brought warmth.

Xie Mingyi was sitting in front of the black jade case, looking at the volumes, and the stacks of books on the side in front of him were crumbling, not at all as neat and tidy as he usually liked.

Although the table was messy, he looked attentively, and after turning a few pages, he would pick up a pen and annotate, and stroke by stroke.

The mutton fat wax burned quietly on the candlestick, and an open yellowed scroll sat on the top of the left.

There was no charcoal burning in the hall, and Wei Shuyao stood for a moment before she felt cold and shivering. The cold of the air slowly seeped into her skin, and she shivered, only to feel that her fingertips were as cold as water.

Hearing the movement, Xie Mingyi had already raised his eyes and looked at her, and his gaze fell on her.

He got up, strode over, and leaned closer.

"What are you doing?"

Wei Shuyao was thinking about what she was thinking, and when she saw Xu Shuangyu outside the door, she was even more sure in her heart. The person Xie Mingyi wants to send is probably this Zaifu daughter.

She knew that Xie Mingyi actually hated herself in her heart, and she was just too lazy to spend half of her energy on her, so she tolerated it so far. Even borrowing her tonight to block the investigation of others is a last resort.

Anyway....... You have to try everything to find out.

Wei Shuyao pursed her lips and slowly curled her eyebrows.

"The wind is cold and the night is late, I will wait for His Highness to rest early."

A thin mist still floated on her long, undried hair, and droplets of water rolled down from the ends of her hair, wetting her clothes.

Xie Mingyi's eyes flickered slowly, from her thick and trembling long eyelashes, to her smooth nose, and finally to her soft and pink lips.

There was a line of shallow tooth marks.
