Since your identity has been revealed, it would be rude not to be polite.
Xie Ruyue had a dark face from beginning to end, but when Xie Ruzhuo saluted, she said hello symbolically and stood aside without saying a word.
He actually dared to speak ill of her sister. She, Xie Ruyue, remembered this! That's all for today at someone else's house, but as time goes by, she will get it back.
Ye Qingyan was not impressed by Xie Ruyue's attitude, and asked Xie Ruzhuo, "I heard that during the autumn hunt, Miss Xie bravely blocked the prince's arrow. But I am very curious, why did you do this?"
He has been in the army for a long time, and he is not good at turning his words around. What he said was a bit reproachful.
Ye Qingyan made it so obvious that Xie Ruzhuo naturally noticed the meaning behind his words. This was a disguised way of saying that he had an ulterior motive in saving people.
As she thought about it, she just smiled and said, "Then I would like to ask the prince, why don't I do this?"
This sentence stopped Ye Qingyan. Xie Ruzhuo did not continue the pursuit. He glanced at the unhappy Xie Ruyue beside him and said, "My sister and I have something else to do. Let's take our leave."
After saying that, he took Xie Ruyue and left here. Although the weather outside was fine, it was still a bit chilly, but she was still ill. If the wind and cold get worse, he will be detained in the room to take medicine.
Ye Qingyan was hit hard, but she wasn't angry at all. She just looked at Xie Ruzhuo's back and smiled a little. This girl doesn't seem as brainless as the rumors say, but she is somewhat interesting.
As soon as he looked away, he saw a woman walking towards him. She was surrounded by pearls and emeralds, and her body was filled with fragrance. On a winter day, she was wearing a bright red jacket. It was supposed to be a pattern of cold plums and proud snow, but she wore it out. A bundle of joy.
"Greetings to the Crown Prince."
The woman's voice was deliberately suppressed, trying to give people a sense of stability. Unfortunately, Ye Qingyan had already begun to dislike this woman at the first sight.
"no."
Ye Qingyan only said these two words and wanted to turn around and leave. Unexpectedly, the woman had already begun to announce her family name.
"Your Majesty, I am Xie Rulan, the third young lady of the Xie family, and that was my fourth sister just now." Xie Rulan seemed not to notice that Ye Qingyan wanted to leave, and chatted with Ye Qingyan with an admiring look on her face.
When she saw Ye Qingyan just now, she made an excuse to come out. Then he kept hiding in the dark and listened to all their conversations. She was worried about how to strike up a conversation with Ye Qingyan, but Xie Ruzhuo himself gave her a chance. He was really stupid!
But it doesn't matter. Without Xie Ruzhuo's domineering and arrogant attitude, how could he show off his own virtuous and virtuous character
Xie Rulan thought about this idea, and the smile in her heart grew wider.
"It turns out it's Miss Xie, you're polite." Others kept saying it, but Ye Qingyan couldn't stop talking at all, so she just replied briefly.
Xie Rulan thought he was still angry about what happened just now, so she said helplessly, "The prince is polite now. My sister has such a character. She was offended just now, I hope the prince won't take it to heart."
"It doesn't matter."
Ye Qingyan only felt that the fragrance on her body was too strong, which made him unbearable outside. After saying these two words, he made an excuse and said, "I still have something to do, let's talk about it another day."
"The prince will go and do his work first, and Rulan will come to apologize another day." Xie Rulan saw that he did look a little hurried, and immediately said sensibly.
Ye Qingyan didn't say much, and immediately left the place with the Jiang brothers.
Xie Rulan stood there, looking at Ye Qingyan's leaving figure, and slowly smiled. Although Ye Qingyan was a little colder in his words, he was not completely without a chance. Based on her status as the legitimate daughter of the third wife of the Xie family, if she uses some tricks on her own, maybe the position of the concubine will be hers, Xie Rulan!
Xie Rulan felt a little unhappy when she thought about the marriage that her family had planned. She made up her mind that she would have to convince her mother to postpone the marriage when she returned. Why should she, Xie Rulan, a legitimate daughter, leave the capital to go to that remote place or marry a bastard? She still doesn't like that man!
As soon as he left Xie Rulan's sight, Jiang Chengye couldn't help but laugh muffledly, "Ye Qingyan, you are lucky. Spring has not yet arrived, and peach blossoms are already blooming everywhere."
Ye Qingyan sighed helplessly. In the past, Jiang Chengye had never been so gloating about his misfortune. He was probably hurting Xie Ruzhuo just now by speaking like this.
However, things still need to be explained clearly, "I have no ill intentions towards the Xie sisters, it's just that there are too many rumors and I want to confirm them."
"What about the confirmed results?" Jiang Chengjun asked urgently. He made up his mind that if what Ye Qingyan said didn't agree with him anymore, he wouldn't care if this person was his cousin or not, he would beat him up!
Fortunately, Ye Qingyan only said, "It's quite interesting."
"That's natural. They two are very funny." Jiang Chengjun chuckled. He felt hurt for these two cousins.
"However, the door of my Dingbei Prince's Mansion is not open to just anyone. Although the Xie family sisters are good, this Miss Xie San is an unseemly person. I'm afraid that after today, I will I personally ordered the concierge to prohibit such people from entering or leaving!"
Ye Qingyan has always followed military standards, and sometimes it is inevitable that he will be merciless when doing things. But Jiang Chengye was happy to hear this. To be honest, he also hated this woman very much.
Xie Ruzhuo didn't know that these episodes happened after she left. Just as she was about to pick up Mr. Qiao at the door with Xie Ruyue, she bumped into two people.
Two people she couldn't help but gnash her teeth at just thinking about.
"Zhuo'er, what a coincidence, I meet you here." It was Xiao Junhan who spoke, with a look of joy on his face and a sincere voice as if he was indeed very happy for this chance encounter.
Xie Ruzhuo looked at him coldly, then suddenly smiled and said, "Yes, it is indeed a coincidence. I didn't expect that Sister Shen and the Second Prince are so familiar with each other and are actually in the same place."
In her previous life, when she and Xiao Junhan went out to play, Shen Jingci would always be with her. She had even brought Shen Jingci here many times. Thinking about it now, she thought she was really stupid. So blatant, she actually didn't notice any clues before the incident happened!
Or maybe it was her trust in the man in front of her that made her unwilling to believe any rumors.
"Thank you sister, don't get me wrong. The second prince and I just met by chance. We happened to go to pay tribute to Princess Dingbei, so we came together." After hearing this, Shen Jingci put away the gloom on her face and smiled. He explained without smiling. What she was thinking was one thing, but now was not the time to fall out with Xie Ruzhuo.
"Well, in that case, let's not disturb you two." Xie Ruzhuo was too lazy to talk to her. Instead of talking useless nonsense, he might as well calm down and plan how to deal with this pair of losers!
"Meeting is fate, how can we call it disturbing? Speaking of which, Sister Xie has been in the limelight recently. First she saved the third prince in the hunting ground, and then she showed off her talents at the daughter's banquet. It's really gratifying." Shen Jingci connected the two things together and said with irony. Both of these things, Xie Ruzhuo ruined her plan, so she had to figure out whether Xie Ruzhuo did it intentionally or not.
If it was intentional, she would definitely try her best to deal with Xie Ruzhuo; if it was unintentional, then she would just keep torturing her slowly!
Xie Ruzhuo heard her temptation, but did not answer directly. He just avoided the topic and said, "How can I be as good as Sister Shen? The suggestions you made at the daughter's banquet were praised by the emperor. Such a woman She didn't give in to the men and compared herself with many officials present, which is a pity for her sister."
"Oh? What's the pity?" Xiao Junhan couldn't help but answer after hearing this.
"Of course it's a pity that Sister Shen is not a man. Otherwise, it would be a good idea to be a general and a prime minister." As she said that, she sighed again and said, "If Sister Shen can be born into the royal family again, maybe there will be a higher one." It’s possible.”
After Xie Ruzhuo said this, Shen Jingci naturally heard the sarcasm and provocation in her words, but she could only pretend not to understand and said with a smile, "Sister Xie is really complimenting me. I am just a little girl, how can I He has so much ability.”
However, Xiao Junhan on the side couldn't help but become suspicious. Is Shen Jingci working so hard to plan for herself just to get into the lower position
"It's just a joke, why does Sister Shen take it to heart?" Since he couldn't leave, Xie Ruzhuo simply satirized him to the end. Someone came to her door to scold her, why didn't she want this opportunity
Maybe Xie Ruzhuo refused for a long time, Xiao Junhan felt more and more that Xie Ruzhuo now was far from the brainless woman before. Before, he just wanted to take advantage of Xie Ruzhuo's family background, and every time he pretended to be gentle towards Xie Ruzhuo, he himself felt a little guilty. nausea. But now, he feels that such Xie Ruzhuo is wise and intelligent, able to silence the other party's arguments, but also leaves room for others. Such an astute woman also makes him want to get close to her more and more.
Xiao Junhan always did what he said. He made up his mind and immediately smiled and said, "Zhuo'er, I remembered something. How about we go over there and talk about it alone?"
"Isn't this inappropriate?" Xie Ruzhuo felt a little disgusted subconsciously, but he couldn't say it too obviously. Her thoughts actually coincide with Shen Jingci's, and it's not yet time to completely break up with each other.
Seeing her dodge, Xiao Junhan felt unhappy, but said, "Don't worry Zhuo'er, I'll only take up your time for a while."
He had already said this, and Xie Ruzhuo couldn't refuse, so he said to Xie Ruyue, "Sister, go pick up my mother first, send her there and then come back to me."
Xie Ruyue was a little worried, but she didn't want to show it too obviously, so she had to squeeze her palm hard before turning and leaving.
Seeing this, Shen Jingci suppressed her jealousy and said with a smile, "In that case, I'll go over first. Thank you, sister. We'll see you later."
Xie Ruzhuo was the only two people left on the gravel path. The wind mixed with the cold air blew by, and Xie Ruzhuo couldn't help but tighten his clothes again.
Xiao Junhan laughed softly and said, "Zhuoer, you are still so afraid of the cold."
"Haha." Xie Ruzhuo was speechless and could only hide his mood at the moment with laughter. Every time she saw Xiao Junhan, she would think of the last days of her previous life. The past that made her want to tear each other into pieces when she recalled it in her midnight dreams, as Xiao Junhan got closer, she became more and more uncontrollable.
Xie Ruzhuo could only lower his head and pinch his palm fiercely.
