The man in gray clothes driving the carriage and the men in gray clothes guarding both sides of the carriage were both things she had never seen before.
But they were dressed in gray and looked extremely familiar.
Aren't their outfits exactly those of the secret guards who often appear and disappear mysteriously
The secret guards are different from those of 1, 2, 3, and 4. If Lou Jingxiao hadn't called them out, these secret guards would not have appeared. Instead, they would have been hiding somewhere.
As for where they are hiding, probably only Lou Jingxiao and the secret guards know.
And this carriage.
Only a guy like Lou Jingxiao, who is so lazy that he prefers chaise longues, would like it!
The chair is even more fancy, and the top-quality crystals on the chair are no less than those on the carriage!
"... Lou Jingxiao?"
Her voice after taking a deep breath was filled with a hint of inaudible uneasiness.
It's like worrying that I made a mistake in judgment, or that I was just seeing an illusion.
The man in gray didn't speak, and no sound came from the carriage.
In the silence, Mu Xi could clearly hear her own violently beating heartbeat.
Despite the expressionless look on her face, her mood at the moment was extremely nervous.
No one answered him, no one spoke.
Mu Xi lost her composure and took a step forward: "Lou Jingxiao, I know it must be you! Right? Come out!"
When the man in gray saw her coming forward, he quickly stepped forward and stood in front of her.
Mu Xi glanced at them coldly, but at the moment she had no intention of embarrassing these secret guards. She tried hard to suppress her violently beating heart and regain her composure.
Then, he slowly said: "Brother Jingxiao, you have been avoiding me for a year and you still refuse to see me?"
Bai Zhijing, who had just arrived, suddenly widened his eyes when he heard his apprentice's words.
What? Is this girl with a gentle and expectant tone, and complicated and strong emotions really his cold-hearted apprentice who doesn't even have an expression when he speaks
Brother Jingxiao!
Such a sweet and affectionate name actually came from his own disciple
Bai Zhijing looked at the extremely luxurious carriage. Could it be that the person inside the carriage was Mu Xi's sweetheart
There was still no sound coming from the carriage.
However, the man in gray seems to have received a new order through some special method.
The carriage started again, and the man in gray who was driving turned in another direction and slowly walked away from Mu Xi.
"Brother Jingxiao..." Mu Xi called again with a voice that could not hide her disappointment. She looked at the carriage that left her without hesitation, her eyes were red, and she suddenly said in a lowered voice: "You are not afraid, you never showed up. , will I fall in love with someone else?"
The carriage suddenly stopped.
Mu Xi's eyes suddenly lit up. Was he finally willing to pay attention to him
one Year!
He has been abandoning himself for a year, and in this year, he has never seen her!
Just when Mu Xi was full of expectations, an extremely unfamiliar voice sounded from the carriage.
"Girl, you have the wrong person."
This voice was really strange and emotionless, but the words it said made people feel cruel.
Mu Xi stared at the carriage closely. Did he recognize the wrong person
She doesn't believe it!
She didn't admit the wrong person!
Mu Xi slowly clenched his hands into fists: "I did not identify the wrong person. These three men in gray are the comfort guards around Lou Jingxiao. If you are not him, how can you be his secret guard!"
In the carriage, the voice sounded again: "Miss Ye, although I admire your courage in daring to call our emperor by his first name, I still want to tell you that there are secret guards in the Demon Palace, and each palace owner has assigned a few secret guards. , there are naturally many gray-clothed secret guards around the emperor. They do not take orders from anyone but the emperor. These three beside me are the ones assigned to me by the emperor."
Hearing this, Bai Zhijing's heart skipped a beat, and he stared blankly at Mu Xi in front of him.
It feels like they have been together day and night for a year, and they still don’t know that their apprentice knows someone from the demon clan!
His disciple actually knows people from the demon clan
Still a member of the Demon Palace!
This is no ordinary demon clan!
Mu Xi's fingernails dug deeply into her palms: "I don't believe it! Come out and meet me!"
She believed that no matter what Lou Jingxiao looked like, she would definitely recognize him.
She had seen him in many disguises, from the former Xiao Xi, to the later Xi Wenxiao, to the final ferocious beast form.
She believed she would be able to recognize him!
A faint sigh came from the carriage: "Miss Ye, you must know that the Demon Palace has six palaces and twelve courtyards. I have seen you once in the Demon Palace. I know that the girl must be missing you at this moment." The emperor is very kind, but to be honest, even if I have the courage, I would not dare to pretend to be the emperor and deceive you."
Mu Xi's face was expressionless, but her beautiful eyes were firm: "Don't tell me these things, yes or no, you can talk about it after you come out."
The man who spoke in the carriage had no choice.
He sighed again: "Well, since Miss Ye insists on seeing my palace master, I, the palace master, will get out of the car and meet her."
After the words fell, the carriage curtain was lifted.
A thin man jumped out of the carriage.
The man's body is indeed thin. Unlike other demons who are tall and rough, this man's temperament is very elegant. At first glance, he does not look like a demon, but more like a scholar with an elegant temperament and a lot of poetry. .
Mu Xi always felt that she had seen this person somewhere.
but.
This person cannot be Lou Jingxiao.
Yes.
Lou Jingxiao couldn't be like him. Not only did he look different, but he also didn't have the same aura in his behavior.
Lou Jingxiao also pretended to be a scholar to approach her, but she could still tell the difference from his chatting and laughing.
Just like Xiao Xi back then, no matter how Lou Jingxiao changed his appearance, his way of speaking and his eyes were completely different from this person.
He... is not Lou Jingxiao.
This person is really not Lou Jingxiao.
The man cupped his hands towards Mu Xi and said, "Guo Shuliu, this is... the third time I've met Miss Ye. It's a pleasure to meet you."
Mu Xi froze on the spot, looking at Guo Shuliu, not knowing what to say.
Anyone could see how much disappointment and sadness were in her eyes.
Guo Shuliu paused for a moment, as if he couldn't bear it, but he still said: "Miss Ye may have forgotten that we met once when we were in the small world. I am the Brother Guo that Xiao Xi threw under your carriage."
Mu Xi finally raised his eyes and looked at Guo Shuliu.
It was indeed this person. At first, he thought Lou Jingxiao picked up a scholar from somewhere and threw him into their carriage.
It turned out to be him.
