Shangguan Yaohua said: "This is out of prudence. I was originally a stranger of unknown origin, and in the midst of an eventful autumn, I suddenly took a knife and made it clear that I had no way to offer treasures, so how could the emperor be willing to easily receive them? Take 10,000 steps back and speak, even if he did not take precautions, accepted the treasure knife, and gave me a reward, but I was just an ordinary grass people, and with the treasures, what did the ministers of the government and the opposition think? I have no connections, no status, and no money channels, who will buy my account? In order to protect myself, I had to find Prince Fu as a favorable backer first, and with his power at the bottom, that is, I was only half an inch tall before, and I was several heads taller than others at this time. In the palace, there is such a thing as credit, and if you do it well, you can do it at any time, and you don't need to be greedy for this momentary work. But some people take it very seriously, and they should be grateful to me for selling them this great favor. Besides, I also succeeded in winning the emperor's favor, he personally named me the little prince, and I am in the palace, which can be said to be a person with some weight. ”

Xuan Shuang smiled: "In the past, I always felt that although there were many conspiracies in officialdom, no one could calculate as well as me. When I saw you today, I knew that I was still a frog at the bottom of the well, so I was really convinced. However, Prince Fu has been in a high position for many years, and it is said that he has all kinds of rare and exotic treasures, and he should not be an incompetent person who gets dizzy when he sees a treasure knife, but you must be good at stammering, and he has said a lot of good and obedient things in front of him, which has made him deeply pleased. That being the case, you shouldn't be a timid person, why don't you dare to let go of my set?"

Shangguan Yaohua said: "I sincerely respect you, and I don't want to play tricks on false words." Xuan Shuang couldn't help laughing again, and said, "It turns out that the respect for your father-in-law is because of the hypocrisy of clinging." ”

Cheng Jiaxuan was embarrassed to stay by the side, feeling that the two were talking, and he couldn't even insert a word, sitting next to him was just like a piece of wood, and he didn't make a fool of himself in front of Shangguan Yaohua. said: "Then you talk slowly, I still have some things, go first." Xuan Shuang nodded casually, still talking to Shangguan Yaohua.

Cheng Jiaxuan wanted to get up, but his fingertips suddenly touched the wood chips hidden in his sleeve. In the past, I always felt that when I raised my hand into the bag and touched, the movement was too big, but this time it was in the opposite direction, and it was not easy. I couldn't see Shangguan Yaohua's emotions, but his eyes seemed to be cold and pervasive. If there is still something hidden on the sleeve, it must be held firmly when walking to avoid falling off. At that time, the posture will be extremely contrived, and he will see the flaws at a glance.

Besides, it's rare to hold on to this time, and it's a pity to give up halfway, and I may not be able to muster such courage next time. After thinking about it, it's better to hand it over to Xuan Shuang immediately, anyway, it's just a matter of moments. No matter how vigilant Shangguan Yaohua was, he couldn't pay attention to every second. While standing up, he took the opportunity of covering Xuanshuang with a quilt, quietly lifted the corner of the mattress, stuffed the wood chips into it, and immediately covered it again. Pretended to flick on the sheets, pretending to smooth it out.

Shangguan Yaohua's eyes were sharp, and he saw her small movements clearly, and shouted: "What are you hiding?"

Cheng Jiaxuan only felt a scoop of cold water poured directly into her heart, and she didn't think that she would be afraid of something, but she still struggled a few times when she was dying, and smiled reluctantly: "What? what...... Nope!"

Shangguan Yaohua snorted coldly: "You don't have to deny it! Just now I clearly saw your sneaky hands and feet, and I was uneasy and kind when I saw it, could it be that I was dazzled?" Cheng Jiaxuan smiled dryly: "Hehe...... That could be. Seeing that his face was not good, he hurriedly said: "No, I mean, little prince, you are overworked day and night, maybe it is really dazzling and difficult to say! It is ...... to have more rest on weekdays."

Shangguan Yaohua said angrily: "What nonsense! What is my eyesight, it is not your turn to comment." If you don't have bad intentions, what kind of energy do you have? If you have the courage to take it out and see it, don't let me do it!"

Xuanshuang didn't know what to do at first, but after listening to a few words, he also guessed a rough idea. Seeing Cheng Jiaxuan's panicked face, most of them were true. But how could she stuff herself with wood chips for no reason? Could it be that she had another corresponding remark after refusing to marry?

Just now pretending to be a ghost, it was not easy to gain a foothold in majesty, how could Shangguan Yaohua see those sensual words of children's affection? He also helped her smile and said: "It's okay, little prince, she just helped me lay out the sheets, you don't have to make a fuss." At the same time, he thought of his dignified brother, but at this time, he had to compensate others for smiling faces, which he had almost never had.

Shangguan Yaohua said: "This is too gullible to trust people! You are in a high position, and the person who is plotting to harm you does not know how to go, and my father-in-law wants me to take care of you, so I can't let you have an accident under my nose." Xuan Shuang said: "It's okay, I'll explain to your father-in-law, it won't affect you." Shangguan Yaohua was slightly stunned and said, "Don't be stubborn anymore! Think you have a few lives?"

Xuan Shuang said: "I'm not a cat, where did I get more lives? But whether she harmed me or not, I know best." Are you really so slow that I have been stabbed by knives and still don't realize anything? Xiaoxuan has been with me for many years, we have always been very close, and she will not harm me. ”

Shangguan Yaohua said coldly: "No." I have always made the most important promise, even if you don't love yourself, I will always have an explanation for my father-in-law. Officialdom is scheming, ill-intentioned, and those closest to him cannot be trusted. I'm responsible for you, I'm offended!" said Cheng Jiaxuan and pushed Cheng Jiaxuan away, raised his hand to lift the futon, and sure enough, he saw a palm-sized piece of wood resting on the bed board.

Xuan Shuang pretended to be stupid and said: "Huh? Is there really one? This is called a god, could it be that you have the ability to predict the future?" Pretending to be curious, Shangguan Yaohua just wanted to pick it up, Shangguan Yaohua shouted: "Don't touch it! Beware of poison on the wood chips." Raise your hand over his wrist and pick it up beforehand.

Cheng Jiaxuan only sighed, "Bitter!" I didn't think that I would say that happy events never worked, and when it came to bad luck, I would be relieved when I arrived, could this be the crow's mouth that I had heard before? Turning around and wanting to escape, Shangguan Yaohua poked out his finger, hit a few acupoints in her vest, and said, "Everyone has stolen goods, what else do you have to say?"

Xuan Shuang said roundly: "Okay, even if she intends to harm me, after all, it didn't work out in the end." You have a meritorious service in saving the driver this time, and I will give you a reward for your meritorious deeds another day. As for her, I don't want to see her anymore, you let her out. Shangguan Yaohua said: "No! The facts have not yet been clarified, how can the suspect easily get away? No one is allowed to leave." As he spoke, he turned the wood chips and looked at them.

Xuan Shuang hurriedly said: "Slow, no matter who asks her to hand over that piece of wood, it will be given to me after all." I haven't seen it myself, but you should see it first? This difference between superior and inferior is now a mess. Hey, I knew that you were saying something good, but when it came to the end, you had to rely on yourself as a little prince and look down on me, the newly crowned Baylor. Shangguan Yaohua pondered for a moment and said, "Okay." He brought the piece of wood to him and said, "You are only allowed to look at it, but you are not allowed to touch it." ”

Xuan Shuang sighed: "Hey, it's useless for me to talk now. Some people said that they wanted to serve me well, but it turned out that I was asked to serve him. What kind of world is this?" Shangguan Yaohua's face changed, and he said: "Trouble comes from the mouth, don't say this nonsense!"

Xuan Shuang smiled and said: "Don't worry, you go and inquire, who doesn't say that I have the tightest mouth? I will give you praise and fame outside, but it's not okay to complain in private?" Shangguan Yaohua's face turned blue and white for a while, and said: "It's exaggerated, nonsense!

Xuanshuang sighed again, and only a few words were scattered on it. After calming down and looking at it, he smiled disappreciatively and said, "It's nothing." Shangguan Yaohua took back the wood chip with a cold face, took a brief look, and saw that the carving was "In the middle of the night, Lin Zhongshi was seven, and here" frowned and said: "What is weird?" Xuan Shuang smiled: "I just said, this is nothing." The other party asked me to go around the woods in the middle of the night and look at the Big Dipper, but that's it. ”

Shangguan Yaohua snorted coldly, and said in his heart: "Nonsense!" But he didn't dare to be openly rude to Xuanshuang, so he pressed his palm on Cheng Jiaxuan's shoulder and said, "Who asked you to send this?"

Cheng Jiaxuan said: "This ...... It was Lord Lu and Li Meng. 'What is the purpose' I really don't know, Lord Lu only said, just show it to Ling Beile, he will understand. ”

Xuan Shuang said: "Yes, if the meaning is so simple, everyone will know it when you get it, and you don't have to borrow things to pass it on." Shangguan Yaohua half-rolled his gaze and glared at him fiercely. Xuanshuang pretended to smile without any chance, but in fact, she was secretly happy in her heart, and said, "I won't go." In the middle of the night, people disturb their dreams, unless they have a brain problem, they will go to the appointment. ”

Shangguan Yaohua frowned and pondered, and after a long while, he said, "Tonight, I will go with you." Xuan Shuang smiled bitterly: "Didn't I say it, can't I not go?"

Shangguan Yaohua said with a cold face: "No! Is there anything you can't say during the day, but you want to go there in the middle of the night? Li Yijie is dull, although he has no bad intentions, he is very easy to be controlled. As for Lu Qian, all he wants is to seize power and become the emperor, and he is extremely narrow-minded, so it is not surprising that he has such a bad act. I'm going to follow the vine and see what kind of heart they have. On the orders of my father-in-law, there must not be a single tumor left by Lord Belle's side, otherwise, I, Shangguan Yaohua, will accept the responsibility!"

Xuan Shuang sighed: "Look at you, nothing can be done, don't blame me for not reminding you, like a woman." Shangguan Yaohua said angrily: "What did you say?"

Xuan Shuang picked up a pillow, patted it casually, and said with a smile: "However, the little prince's ears and eyes are really first-class." As soon as I entered the palace, I investigated the two lowly people in my Yinxue Palace very clearly. Although they are famous in the martial arts, I seem to remember that you are not a person from the rivers and lakes...... Huh? Could it be that the information is wrong?" Shangguan Yaohua poured out all his understated words, and he wanted to say a few words to justify a little, but he couldn't make it up.

Xuan Shuang changed his words and said with a smile: "Okay, I promise you to accompany me." It just so happens that I'll see what the hell they're up to. I have a few more words for you, let her go out first. Shangguan Yaohua still refused to give in, and said, "Do you want her to go to the ventilating to report the news?"

Xuan Shuang smiled and said: "I thank you very much, I didn't write the letter? I don't know anything about this matter like you, and I'm curious in my heart, which way to go, and which letter to report? I still have something to tell you, it's a man's words, I don't want to give it to girls." ”

Shangguan Yaohua said coldly: "It's better to do so." He stepped forward and smashed Cheng Jiaxuan's sealed acupoint with the hilt of his sword, and said in a low voice: "For the sake of Lord Belle, I won't embarrass you for the time being." Listen, stay honest with me when you return to the palace, and if you dare to talk nonsense, I will break your dog's legs. Get lost. ”

Cheng Jiaxuan's acupoints were solved, and he retreated to the two in a panic, and hurriedly went out, as if his feet did not touch the ground. Half of this is real panic, and the other half is eavesdropping. As soon as he stepped out of the threshold, he immediately turned around and hid behind the door, leaning his ears against the two closed doors. Almost even the ear bones were squeezed and distorted, but the sound inside the door was inaudible.

Xuanshuang lay on the pillow with his back to the sky, crossed one leg, put it on the knee of the other half of the injured leg, swayed his toes slightly, and laughed softly: "You look at me like this, don't I look like a lamb to the slaughter? What to do, you see. Shangguan Yaohua took a step forward and stopped talking.
