Xiao Xinyue didn't care about her blushing and said, "This is what I should do. After all, you are the sister-in-law I recognize, so you are naturally different from others."
Xie Ruzhuo thought of another thing and said with a smile, "Princess, can you enter the palace?"
Xiao Xinyue didn't know why and said, "Of course it's okay. I'm the princess and I have a warrant. I can enter the palace at any time. What's wrong?"
Xie Ruzhuo was overjoyed when he heard this and said, "Princess, can you take me into the palace? I was saved by the prince yesterday. I feel a little uneasy and want to visit him."
Yesterday it was too ostentatious, but today it is different. If Xiao Xinyue had led the way, he would not have attracted anyone's attention.
Seeing her talking about this matter, Xiao Xinyue was also a little angry, "That Xiao Junyi is simply too much. He did something wrong to me yesterday, and he even released poisonous spiders at the banquet tonight! It just hurt you and the third prince. Call me I feel sorry for myself."
At the end of the sentence, Xiao Xinyue's face was full of apologies again.
Xie Ruzhuo said, "How did the princess know that it was the fifth prince who did it?"
Xiao Xinyue snorted and said, "It's not unusual for a villain like him to do such a thing. It's a pity that my father only said that he wanted to settle the matter and not let me pursue it further, so as not to embarrass the Holy One. Otherwise, I will definitely I won’t let him go!”
Seeing that she was a little angry, the two sisters had to coax her.
King Dingnan stayed in Xie's Mansion for a long time. After having dinner with Xie Shengli at noon, the two played chess with great interest.
Seeing Xiao Junhe looking a little unable to sit still, Xie Shengli smiled first and said, "That's all, young people can't stand our behavior. Lin Mu, take the prince to the second lady's place."
King Dingnan thought, "Mr. Xie, isn't this inappropriate?"
Xie Shengli waved his hand and said with a smile, "What's wrong? This girl Yue'er has been rescued by the Crown Prince over and over again. Besides, the princess is here, so it doesn't matter."
Seeing that Xie Shengli had said this, King Dingnan immediately laughed and said, "Sure enough, I am starting to become old-fashioned. That's all. He'er, go ahead. Just don't offend the beauty."
Xiao Junhe had no expression on his face and said "yes" before turning around and following Lin Mu out the door.
When he walked to the door, he could still hear Xie Shengli saying, "This boy looks a bit like the prince back then."
King Dingnan waved his hand and said, "He is far worse than I was back then. This kid is just a piece of wood and doesn't understand the charm at all. I just hope that when I let my granddaughter come here in the future, he won't feel wronged by me."
After staying far away, the voices inside could not be heard clearly. Xiao Junhe breathed out slowly. Although his face was still expressionless, the base of his ears turned suspiciously red.
As soon as I entered the courtyard, I smelled the fragrance of plum blossoms. Along with the aroma, there were bursts of laughter like silver bells from a woman.
Xiao Junhe walked in through the curtain, and a wave of warmth surrounded him, and then he saw a face that was still pleasant without makeup.
When she saw the person coming, Xie Ruyue immediately dropped the veil in her hand, stood up and saluted, "I have met the Crown Prince."
Xiao Xinyue was surprised at first, then smiled and said, "What did I say? I just said that my brother would have to come over sooner or later." After saying that, he winked at Xie Ruzhuo.
Xiao Junhe explained awkwardly, "It was Mr. Xie who asked me to come here."
"What are you doing here, to take me home?" Xiao Xinyue rarely saw Xiao Junhe like this, so she deliberately asked.
Xiao Junhe's face became serious again, and he said with a straight face, "No, you are here to see my fiancée."
When he said it like this, it was particularly heartwarming.
Xie Ruyue's face turned red, but Xiao Xinyue didn't let the two of them go. She just smiled and said, "So you're here to see my sister-in-law. Zhuo'er, let's go, so as not to get in the way."
Seeing the two of them like this, Xie Ruzhuo also covered his mouth and snickered, "Okay, let's go then."
Seeing the two of them slip out of the door like cats, Xie Ruyue and Xiao Junhe were the only ones left in the room.
Xiao Junhe didn't feel embarrassed at all. He walked to the table and sat down. He looked at the embroidery frame she had placed on the table before and smiled and said, "Did you embroider this?"
Hearing this, Xie Ruyue came back to her senses, nodded and said, "Yes, my craftsmanship is crude and makes the prince laugh."
Xiao Junhe picked it up and looked at it carefully for a while, then raised his head and said solemnly, "It's very good."
But I don’t know whether I’m talking about the embroidery or the beauty in front of me.
Xie Ruyue didn't know how to respond, so she heard Xiao Junhe say again, "My eldest brother and sister-in-law are not easy to get along with, but don't worry, I will protect you after I return to southern Xinjiang."
His words were caught off guard, but Xie Ruyue understood instantly. Today was the official proposal for marriage, and she was a girl who had hair extensions last year. She would probably be married in less than half a year at most. Xiao Junhe's words were to appease her.
This man's mouth was really stupid, like an elm tree, but he was also extremely sincere, making Xie Ruyue look like a deer bumping into each other.
Seeing that Xie Ruyue just bowed her head and remained silent, Xiao Junhe was a little at a loss, so he added another sentence, "I will never let you down, nor will I let you be wronged."
Only then did Xie Ruyue respond. She raised her head and looked at him and said, "I believe you."
With just three words, Xiao Junhe felt that there was a tree blooming in front of him, and the sight of spring was boundless.
The Xie family was not far from the palace. Xie Ruzhuo and the two called the driver to drive the carriage, and they arrived at the palace in a short time.
With Xiao Xinyue's waist card, the journey to Xiao Xining's palace was smooth.
After seeing the two of them, Xiao Xinning stood up first and said with a smile, "Are you here to play bridge with me today? Let's make a deal first, I don't have any money to lose today."
Xiao Xinyue sneered and said, "You are so stingy despite being rich and powerful. Don't worry, I won't fight you today. No, it was Zhuo'er who was worried about the third prince and asked me to send her here specifically."
Hearing this, Xiao Xinning said "Oh" meaningfully, then clicked his tongue twice and said, "I mean, it turns out you are worried about my third brother. This is easy to do. Come on, I will take you there."
After saying that, she turned around and ordered, "Serve the princess some tea and wait for her. I'll be back as soon as I go."
Xiao Xinyue agreed, and seeing that Xiao Xining's attitude was particularly ambiguous, she suddenly felt suspicious. According to Xie Ruzhuo, she was thinking about her benefactor, but why did Xiao Xinning look like she was meeting her future sister-in-law? Could it be that Xie Ruzhuo and the third prince...
After leaving the palace gate, Xie Ruzhuo asked, "Princess, is your highness in serious trouble?"
Xiao Xinning shook his head and said, "Actually, even if you don't come, I will invite you tomorrow. He has been unconscious from yesterday to now, and Divine Doctor Wen comes and goes without a trace. After a while, he disappeared. I’m also very worried.”
Hearing this, Xie Ruzhuo became more and more worried. Thinking about the poison in Xiao Junxi's body, he even walked a little faster.
After arriving at the place, Xiao Xinning solemnly explained, "Although Third Brother is unconscious now, Divine Doctor Wen said that if he talks to him more, he might wake up sooner. Third Brother has always been sincere Yue you, if you say it, it will definitely be more effective than us, just give it a try."
Xie Ruzhuo nodded and said with a smile, "Don't worry, princess, I'll go take a look."
As soon as I entered the main hall, I smelled a strong smell of medicine. There was no one in the hall. Walking further inside, I saw a man lying on the bed behind the landscape screen.
Her face was as pale as paper, but it couldn't hide her beautiful face. The eyebrows are dyed like ink, and the face is carefully carved, as if it is a porcelain figure carved by a craftsman, every part is so perfect.
Xie Ruzhuo walked in and saw his raven wings trembling slightly, as if he was sensing her arrival.
Wen Ruyu's words from last night were still ringing in his ears. Xie Ruzhuo felt a twitching in his chest, and then a sense of sourness spread. How could she be willing to accept such a man who only had one year left to live
"Jun Xi, you will be fine."
Xie Ruzhuo was silent for a long time before he said this.
However, once the words are spoken, it is like a dam that has been blown open, and a rushing flood will come, which cannot be stopped.
She slowly sat down beside Xiao Junxi's bed, looked at his features carefully, and murmured in a low voice, "Do you still remember the letter you wrote to me last time? You said that the miracle doctor had prepared a new pill, which was fishy and bitter." Incomparable, in fact, from that time on, your medicine has contained my blood. People say that bones and blood are fused, does that count as our kind?"
As she spoke, she gently touched his brow with her hand. Perhaps only now, when the other party couldn't hear or see her, could she have the courage to speak out some of the words she was hiding in her heart.
Unless that was the case, those words would only rot and accumulate in her heart, but they would never disappear no matter what.
"I thought that I would never fall in love with anyone else in this life. But later I found out that it was because I didn't meet you. I have never regretted meeting you in this life. So, wake up quickly. When you wake up After that, there will be long and long years waiting for you in this life."
When Xie Ruzhuo said this, the tears in the corners of her eyes could no longer be held back, falling from her face and dripping onto his fingertips.
The fingertips moved slightly, and then the pair of starry eyes opened, looking at her and saying, "Will I have you in these long years?"
Perhaps because she had just woken up, Xiao Junxi's voice was extremely hoarse, but the man's deep voice made Xie Ruzhuo panic instantly.
It's as if your most secret thoughts have been uncovered and revealed. She suddenly stood up and wanted to walk out.
But the corner of his clothes was caught by someone, and Xiao Junxi insisted on asking, "If there really is a long time, will it be you?"
Xie Ruzhuo turned his back to him and smiled sadly, then turned around and gave him a beautiful smile, "Of course it will happen." By then my blood will enter your body, and my people will knead into your heart, you thought in your heart If you fall in love with me, the shadow of my concubine will exist for the rest of your life.
Xiao Junxi felt the overwhelming despair in her smile. Her smile was so thrilling and beautiful, but it was like the guiding flower of the underworld, as if her every move carried the aura of death.
Xiao Junxi slowly sat up, coughed a few times, then turned to hold her hand and said hoarsely, "Even if you are coaxing me, I am very happy."
Even though I know that my life will not last long, with your words, this life is enough.
At this moment, I suddenly heard footsteps outside the door, and then a joking voice came, "It seems that I came at the wrong time. Do you want to, um, continue?"
Xie Ruzhuo was so busy that he wiped away his tears and turned around and said, "Old monster, the third prince is awake."
Wen Ruyu sneered and said, "I'm not blind, and you, as my beloved disciple, don't even call me master. Do you believe that I took your skin off and made it into a beautiful piano?"
As he spoke, he said with great interest, "At that time, we can also make another beauty drum and a beauty face, and hang them all in this hall, so that the third prince can be with you every day—"
Before he finished speaking, he saw Xiao Junxi throwing the porcelain pillow towards Wen Ruyu.
