Jalan Dong Palace, verse 36
Obedient and soft.
Qu Ningxi heard the vibration in his chest as he spoke, and then he opened his eyes and breathed a sigh of relief.
She tried to get up with her hands, but found it difficult to move.
The palm of her hand touched something, and it was soft, and she subconsciously grasped it.
Pei Yingxiao seemed to take a breath and asked, "What are you doing?" β
"What?" Qu was puzzled.
Soon, she noticed a change in the palm of her hand, and what she couldn't hold was like a living thing full of support.
She was startled and hurriedly threw away her hand: "Snake! Orochi...... Hmmm......"
The exclamation was covered by Pei Yingxiao's hand, and His Royal Highness the Prince, who was usually smiling in his eyes, had a rather fierce expression at this time: "Silence." β
Ying Chu at the other end of the carriage heard it and hurriedly asked, "What snake?" Is there a snake?! β
Snakes and insects are infested in summer, and it is simply impossible to prevent them!
Pei Yingxiao's faint thin lips pursed into a straight line: "There is no snake, she is wrong." β
Qu Ningxi was still covering her mouth, her eyes were round and suspicious, she didn't make a mistake, it was a big snake!
He even secretly raised this kind of poison on his body, and he was not allowed to say it!
Chapter 23 Chapter 23 is ridiculous
Qu Ningxi trembled lightly, his cold hair stood on end, and once he imagined that he was so close to the snake, he was about to be scared out in a cold sweat.
It's just through layers of clothing, and the touch is not very real, but the tendency of its probe is very obvious.
Seeing the obvious fear of the little girl in her arms, Pei Yingxiao couldn't help laughing, holding her chin and looking at herself: "Is it necessary for Lone to lie?" β
Qu Ningxi crashed into his dark eyes, and said back to his senses: "...... No, no. β
She believed that he had just wrapped a snake around his neck, and no one dared to say anything.
She didn't dare even more, who would have the guts to care about him?
Therefore, there is no need for the prince to hide a snake and not admit it, who would carry this thing in common sense?
It was really a misunderstanding of her.
Outside the carriage, Ming En and several people were helping them out through the window.
Qu Ningxi asked Pei Yingxiao to invite first, and apologized in a low voice: "I was stunned and talked nonsense, absurd, and I hope His Highness will forgive me." β
Pei Yingxiao didn't say anything to accuse, and called Yingchu to come over and help her out first.
Qu Ningxi thought that he was angry and didn't want to go first, so he hurriedly said, "Your Highness, please first." β
How can a man of gold and jade go out after her?
The overturned carriage was upside down, and it was very aggrieved, of course, it was better to get out as soon as possible.
Pei Yingxiao glanced at her, and the corners of his mouth curled up with a trace of no smile: "Qu Ningxi, go out." β
βοΌβ He called her by name and surname!
At that time, people had their own set of etiquette, and it was better to call them by their surnames, characters, and nicknames than to call them by their first names, which was a form of not being too polite and not very friendly.
Qu Ningxi immediately shrank his neck, and without saying a word, he immediately climbed out of the window.
He didn't drag the mud or water at all, and Ying Chu was on the side to assist.
And His Royal Highness the Prince, who seems to be a heavenly immortal, raised his hand and gently pressed his eyebrows, and in those dark eyes, it was difficult to distinguish joy and anger.
But where a man with sound physical fitness, a beautiful woman is in his arms, and he is also caught, who can be indifferent.
Fortunately, it was only a mild reaction, and it was soon back to normal.
Qu Ningxi is very smart, but there are some things that cannot be touched by women who have not left the cabinet.
Girls, in particular, who are strictly upbringing, do not have access to any atlases at all, unlike men who go to some places.
The servants around her will also prevent such things from reaching her ears.
Qu Ningxi knows that there is a difference between men and women, men will make a woman lose her innocence, and she hides from external factors such as the second prince.
But when it comes to a certain point, how to lose it is a hazy state of seeing flowers in the fog.
When all three men got out of the carriage, the frightened coachman immediately made amends.
The wheels of the carriage fell into a deep pit, causing the carriage to roll over, and the weight of the overturned fell and the wheels on that side were cracked.
A few people lifted the carriage up, but it could not be used, and it was necessary to send someone to repair it.
Pei Yingxiao didn't blame the coachman, and looked at Qu Ningxi: "Send Miss Qu back home?" β
"Your Highness has a lot of opportunities, how can you delay because of your courtiers?"
Qu Ningxi had just been called by his name, and at this moment, he hurriedly said: "I just want to dare to ask His Highness to borrow someone, and quickly go to the Hou Mansion to inform him." β
Ming En took over the conversation and said, "It's not early, and it's going back and forth between inside and outside the city, and it's going to be dark." β
Shangjing City is so big, even if you go out of the city, it will take some effort, not to mention that Qu Ningxi will not be early when he embarks on his return journey from Lotus Lake.
She was still hesitating, Pei Yingxiao had already turned over and stretched out his hand to her, "Come up." β
Qu Ningxi raised her head and looked at the sturdy white horse that was taller than her, and the attendants around her were all watching, she couldn't help but know what was wrong.
I had to stretch out my hand to him, and I was held and led up, and rode with the prince.
Pei Yingxiao clamped the horse's belly, and under his crotch [Qianxue] stepped out of the drumbeat and ran out.
The breeze was coming, and Qu Ningxi turned his head to look around, and no one could hear them.
She whispered, "What should I do if I enter the city and be watched?" β
Either way, a ride together is a bit too intimate......
At this moment, her back was straight, for fear of touching her chest close behind her back, and she could hear his heartbeat even if it touched her chest a little.
Not to mention Pei Yingxiao's hands holding the reins passed through her left and right waists, completely in an encircled posture.
"When they see it, they praise Lonely's demeanor."
Pei Yingxiao lightly stated the facts, even if his words were suspected of boasting, but what he confided from his mouth was natural.
Indeed, it is impossible to face the East Palace and the Marquis of Anyong's Mansion in the open.
And Pei Yingxiao's external image is quite gentle and considerate...... Not to be over-interpreted.
Qu Ningxi could only thank him obediently: "Thank you, Your Highness." β
He snorted, and mentioned Wang Jinyi in a sparse and ordinary tone, without warning: "Xiao Wanyu is obedient to Gu Bai, but she wants to marry the Wang family?" β
Qu Ningxi was stunned when he heard this, it turned out that he knew everything.
There could be no mistake in the letter she sent, and he saw it, but did not answer.
Qu Ningxi grabbed the corner of his sleeve and replied cautiously: "Your Royal Highness, the queen intends to give marriage, and the object is the prince of the Yiyuan Marquis's Mansion, thanks to His Royal Highness's reminder, the courtiers can't avoid him, so ......"
"So you chose Wang Jinyi."
Qu Ningxi is not easy to deny, but he does not forget to remedy: "I, I love His Royal Highness, and I will never go against the East Palace, I can swear by this." β
She was referring to the latter point, and she really wouldn't go against Donggong!
Pei Yingxiao was silent and took her on horseback.
Qu Ningxi was afraid that he would not believe him, so he continued: "People are precious in their own knowledge, and after all, Your Highness and I are separated by a moat...... But even if I can't accompany His Highness, I still wish His Highness all the best in my heart......"
Before she could finish the word Shun, Pei Yingxiao's big palm clasped her waist and pressed it down.
Qu Ningxi, who had been holding his back and didn't dare to lean back, suddenly fell deeply into his arms.
He seemed to chuckle in her ear, and his tone was slightly cold: "Who wants you to wish in your heart?" β
So, what about that?
Qu Ningxi's little heart was about to pop out, and his soft little hand was subconsciously resting on the back of his hand.
It's a defensive gesture that she doesn't notice herself, grabbing the other's hand and pushing it out at any moment.
Pei Yingxiao is tall, but people are easily deceived by their eyes, and seeing him with a face like a crown of jade and a smile like a spring breeze will form an illusion of being thin and sven.
Qu Ningxi was held in his arms, petite, and completely unable to move.
He whispered to her, "Lonely never makes promises to anyone, and neither can you." β
"Your Highness......" she was shocked.
"Lone doesn't agree with Wang Jinyi, do you know what to do?" Pei Yingxiao bent her eyebrows, twisted her white cheeks with her fingertips, and gently pinched one hand softly.
Qu Ningxi was hugged by the waist and pulled her little face, his strength was not great at all, but she was scared into a panic.
She understood, and the prince asked her to reject Wang Jinyi.
He said that he would not promise her anythingβbut this sentence revealed the meaning of wanting her to enter the East Palace.
It doesn't matter where it is, but she has already been stamped with the poke of the East Palace.
Qu Ningxi didn't know what went wrong, why did it evolve to this point when she was supposed to be 'unilaterally loving His Highness but couldn't get it'?
That Miss Zheng San, who is thin-skinned and not good at concealment, often follows her eyes, doesn't she know that she likes the prince?
She didn't believe that Pei Yingxiao didn't notice the other party's feelings, but he pretended not to know the feelings and didn't respond to anything.
Why did he respond to her?
Is she acting too far?
"You don't have to worry about the marriage, Isolby will solve it for you."
Pei Yingxiao withdrew his hand, the city gate was close in front of him, and he distanced himself from her by a few inches, as if he had never crossed the distance.
How to fix it?
Qu Ningxi's heart was in turmoil, and there were many pedestrians in and out of the city, so she was no longer allowed to ask questions at will.
She was in a daze, and was sent all the way back to the Marquis of Anyong's mansion, and Yingchu was also piggyback.
