"Shut up."

Leng Xi suddenly slammed the book in his hand on the table, looked up at Xiao Cui with a blue face, and roared angrily:

"You little girl, dare to talk about the princess behind your back? It's really bold, it seems that this king usually spoils you too much, so that you dare to speak without hindrance, today this king doesn't give you a lesson, you don't know how many pounds and taels you have. ”

Seeing that Leng Xi was angry, Xiao Cui shook her head a little timidly and admitted her mistake,

"Lord, the slave and maid don't dare to talk about the princess, the slave and maid know that they are wrong, and the slave and maid will do things."

Leaving this unwilling sentence, Xiao Cui quickly got up from the ground and left here as if she had fled.

Although the girl's presumptuous discussion of Qiaoqiao made him angry, Yu Qiaoqiao did this inexplicable thing, which made him even more puzzled.

Immediately, he walked out of the study and went straight to Yu Qiaoqiao's room.

In the past few years, Yu Qiaoqiao has not only practiced good dancing skills, but also practiced the embroidery work that was already handy.

Every night, she would pick up the embroidery needle and embroider a few stitches, and everything in her room was embroidered by her for herself.

The pair of tasseled mandarin duck embroidered pillows placed on the bed, the small daisies on the flower pattern cushions, a lonely jasmine on the moonlight gauze tent, and the Qionghua gold thread embroidered purse......

The places that can be embroidered in this room have been embroidered by her, the fine needle angles, the clear lines, and the vivid pictures all show her embroidery skills.

At this time, she was embroidering a hand stove sleeve with a plum blossom pattern for Xiaobao's hand stove.

Leng Xi pushed the door in without warning, and without raising her head, she asked directly:

"It's getting more and more unruly, and you don't know how to knock when you enter the house?"

Leng Xi frowned, came to her with his back hand, and said in a cold voice:

"When the king enters the house, will he knock at the door?"

Hearing his voice, Yu Qiaoqiao paused, and the embroidery needle, impartial, pierced her middle finger, and a drop of bright red blood flowed out of her fingertips.

She was just about to wipe it with a handkerchief, when Leng Xi suddenly pulled the injured finger and took it directly into her mouth......

This move made Yu Qiaoqiao feel stunned, she had never had such close contact with Leng Xi, and he did it suddenly, which made her feel unspeakably sad.

The warm feeling from the tips of her fingers spread around her, and her body couldn't help but tighten.

Leng Xi was also a little surprised, he didn't even know why he acted like this, it didn't seem to be within the control of his brain.

He paused there awkwardly, Yu Qiaoqiao hurriedly withdrew his hand, blushing and squeaking,

"You...... How did it come? ”

In order to alleviate the embarrassment, Leng Xi cleared his throat and pretended to be unintentional and said:

"I ...... I'll take a look at ......."

Time seemed to stand still, and Leng Xi felt this tense and awkward feeling for the first time.

After pondering for a long time, he still asked:

"I heard that you have ordered people to stay on duty all night in the past two days, why is this?"

With a faint smile on the corner of Yu Qiaoqiao's mouth, she asked calmly:

"Those two girls complained to you? Or are you distressed? ”

These words obviously had a sour taste, and Leng Xi hurriedly explained:

"No, just come and ask."

"I just want them to know that they have always been the girls of the Xiwang Mansion before they were canonized as side concubines by you, don't try to climb on top of the master's head, and I just want to tell you that in the future, you will find a woman and marry back directly and openly to be your side concubine, don't be unclear with these little girls, which will not only damage your identity, but also damage the face of the Xiwang Mansion."

Speaking of this, Yu Qiaoqiao's emotions were a little excited, and without waiting for Leng Xi to speak, she continued:

"As the king of Daning, it is not impossible to marry a few concubines, there is nothing between you and me, and this matter has nothing to do with me, but I hope that I am in this position for a day, and you will respect me for a day, you think you sleep with these girls with a light on your face, I feel that this is a great shame, I have found a few more famous matchmakers in the capital, and sent a request for you to kiss the post, choose a day, the matchmaker will send the portraits of these serious women, and then, you will choose to marry a few of them, Let them come to the door in earnest, you Xi Wangye marry a side concubine, not to mention marrying a famous lady, but also marry a few young ladies with similar status, but you and a few girls are confused, I really ...... I'm really ashamed. ”

Yu Qiaoqiao's words made Leng Xi feel speechless for an instant.

He paused for a moment, frowned and replied:

"I don't have to worry about this matter, I don't have the heart to think about marrying a side concubine now."

"I don't want to worry about you, you don't want to fool around with a few girls all day long, do you know what the people in the house say about you? Not only said that you are hungry, but also said that I am pure-hearted and have few desires, you can not care, I care, I don't want people to chew the root of my tongue behind my back, saying that I am a poor woman who is not even as good as the girl in the house. ”

Speaking of this, Xu thought of the sadness of these years, and Yu Qiaoqiao's eyes began to redden.

Leng Xi was stunned in place, Yu Qiaoqiao's words, it was clear that it was for his good, but secretly he was blaming him for his indifference to her.

For so many years, no matter how indifferent he was to her, she didn't have any complaints, and she kept the Xiwang Mansion in good order.

What did she do wrong? Where is she inferior to those girls?

Over the years, he has occasionally reflected in his heart, in fact, the matter between him and Long Xiaomin has nothing to do with Yu Qiaoqiao, it's just that she happened to appear at that time, why did he put all this guilt on her?

"I'm sorry."

After thinking about it again and again, he finally said this, but Yu Qiaoqiao was stunned as if he didn't understand.

He said sorry to her?

She felt that she must have heard it wrong, how could this man say sorry to others?

He continued:

"Over the years, I have wronged you, I Leng Xi in this life, I am most sorry for two women, one is Long Xiaomin, the other is you, Long Xiaomin has left me, in this life, I have no chance to make up for it, if I am sorry for you again, then I Leng Xi will really become that evil person."

Speaking of this, he sighed, thinking of what he was going to do in half a month, and his eyes were a little more melancholy.

Yu Qiaoqiao would never have dreamed that Leng Xi would say such a thing to her.

She sat there a little confused, her fingers digging into her palms......

Leng Xi walked slowly to her side, put his hands on her shoulders, pulled her up, and the moment they looked at each other, he said again:

"Qiaoqiao, you have been the princess of Xi for me for more than ten years, but I have let you stay a widow for more than ten years, do you hate me?"
