Author: I am hopelessly handsome

Liu Piaopiao's silky black hair hung down, and fell on the back of Lu Ji's hand with residual heat. For a moment, he felt that his throat tightened, his mouth was dry, and he did not dare to raise his eyes to look at the person above. But Liu Piaopiao seemed not to have any

He realized that he was thinking of himself and said: "The assassin's target is not me, how could he hurt me?"

She had just woken up, and her voice was still a little hoarse. With the childish feeling unique to a girl, it felt like a cat's claw scratching Lu Ji's heart.

He took the water cup from He Zhi and didn't know what to think. The rim of the cup was pressed against Liu Piaopiao's lips, and the lips that had lost their color revealed a delicate pink color after being touched by water. Lu Ji turned his face sideways and muttered silently.

Don't look at anything inappropriate.

Liu Piaopiao cleared her throat before asking: "Where is Miss Bai?"

"She was fine. She was just frightened and was escorted back home."

Liu Piaopian lowered her eyes, stared at Lu Ji's slender fingers, and said without thinking: "Your Highness's hands are so beautiful."

Lu Ji smiled and raised his hand. Turning over the palm of his hand, Liu Piaopiao discovered that there was a thin layer of calluses on Lu Ji's fingertips and tiger's mouth. His skin texture was so delicate that even though he had been wielding knives and guns all day long, it was still as white as jade, making people unable to take their eyes away.

.

Liu Piaopiao stretched out her hand to gesture, but she was small everywhere, even her hands were half smaller than Lu Ji's.

His fingertips ran across Lu Ji's palm, tracing the lines carefully. Liu Piao suddenly raised his head, stared at Lu Ji's face and said, "Your Highness, I know how to read palms."

Lu Ji snorted and looked at her mischief in amusement, "How about you, Miss Five, tell me about my palmistry?"

"Your Highness is destined to be a noble, but your marriage is not very good. If you accidentally marry the wrong person, you will easily be killed." Liu Piaopian lowered her voice, "I said last time that the one who is most suitable for Your Highness is

The noble girl is Bai Ziyan, and I’m afraid she’s not as good as she should be now.”

Lu Ji knew what Liu Piaopiao meant, and he deliberately acted like he didn't see it.

"Fifth Miss, do you regret it? Why did you return my crescent moon pendant and say bad things about Miss Bai secretly?"

Liu Piaopiao did not feel embarrassed when Lu Ji teased her, but her face turned serious: "I am just a concubine, and I have never thought about His Highness. It's just that the authorities are obsessed with it, and bystanders know clearly. Your Highness thinks who is most likely to commit today's assassination."

Lu Ji tilted his head, pursed his lips and said nothing. Liu Piaopiao sighed when he saw this, "He looks like the second prince, right? But the change from Fengyue Yaju to the cruise ship only takes an hour and a half at most. Who can be like that?"

Arrange the assassins as soon as possible. Unless you have a thorough understanding of this cruise ship and are only waiting for an opportunity. Although I was raised in a boudoir, I also know that this ship is Miss Bai's property."

"She had already planned to leave the table before the assassin showed up. When the assassin showed up, he disappeared early, which really makes people suspicious."

Lu Ji did not answer her words. She looked at Liu Piaopiao's hands. The fingers were very thin and the nails were round with a touch of pink. How could such cute hands kill the assassin without even blinking.

"Liu Piaopiao, aren't you afraid?"

The man's voice trembled, he was extremely wronged, and he looked like he wanted to cry mixed with deep heart palpitations and fear.

"Why aren't you afraid? But I have received favors from His Highness, so how can I put His Highness in danger?"

"Then what should I do if that person kills you with a backhand sword? What do you want me to do!"

Lu Ji stood up. He was so tall that the shadow cast by him completely enveloped Liu Piaopiao. He looked like a rabbit that fell into the hands of the devil. It looked pitiful with tears in its eyes. But Lu Ji knew that he could not underestimate this rabbit no matter what.

, this rabbit’s bite is really painful.

His sinister brows and roiling anger were like the cold wind carrying countless ice and snow blowing towards his face. Liu Piaopiao was so frightened that she didn't even dare to open her eyes, so she could only timidly call out, "Your Highness."

In the end, Lu Ji was defeated. He knelt down on one of his legs dejectedly and protected Liu Piaopiao in a safe range. His usually calm voice was a little confused, "What if you die?"

, what should I do, Liu Piaopiao, you almost scared me to death."

Liu Piaopiao was stunned, she blinked and shed tears. However, Lu Ji wiped them away secretly before she could see her. She still looked at Lu Ji with the same expression as before. She was respectful, but could not see any love.

"Your Highness, it's better to stay away from Miss Bai. Although there are many rumors that you want to marry Miss Bai, after all, it is a done deal. It's still too late to regret it."

Lu Ji looked at Liu Piaopiao's concerned look and felt a surge of joy in his heart. He had never been wary of Liu Piaopiao. This was the first person he wanted to confide in since he was a child.

"I spread the rumors."

Liu Piaopiao's eyes widened at this moment, "What?"

Lu Ji smiled, as proud as a fox.

"Shang Shuling has always been a favorite of women. It is not a secret that Bai Ziyan likes the second child. Now I spread the rumors. She is worried about her daughter's family's face and has rarely interacted with the second child recently. She is not happy.

You know how much you hate me."

"But Your Highness, why do you do this?"

Lu Ji's eyes were heavy, but he looked at Liu Piaopiao with tenderness.

"Because Shangshu Ling has always been neutral, if Bai Ziyan really marries the second son, all the courtiers who have not yet taken sides will defect. After this period of time, Lu Yanhui will marry the concubine of Da Sima, and then nothing will happen.

With Master Bai’s integrity, he would never let his daughter become a concubine.”

Liu Piaopiao still felt something was wrong, "How could a noble prince marry a concubine?"

This was Duan Xinmi, but Lu Ji knew Liu Piaopiao's character and felt relieved.

"In the early years, Qiu Lie, his second son was almost bitten to death by a wolf. It was Wang Yuxi who saved him, and half of his face was ruined for this. For this kindness, he should marry someone else."

Liu Piaopiao recalled carefully that Yunjing was full of nobles, but they rarely heard about Wang Yuxi. In other words, this person was simply removed from the Yunjing celebrities. Even if he was playing with Liu Yufu

Even the few who have won the gold know about it. But Wang Yuxi is indeed too unknown.

She frowned: "Is it okay to be a concubine? Da Sikong's status is also very high."

Lu Ji immediately sighed, "Because concubines can be abandoned at any time."

Because concubines are not important and are not valued by their mother's family, they are outside the center of power.

These words undoubtedly touched Liu Piaopiao's heart, and she turned pale instantly. She couldn't help but speculate that maybe Lu Ji thought the same way.

But Lu Ji didn't. He still smiled and didn't beat around the bush at all.

"But you are different. Even if you are nothing, you are still very important in my heart."

Liu Piaopiao chuckled, "Your Highness was just joking, Piaopiao didn't think much about it."

When Lu Ji heard what she said, he didn't rush to defend himself. He just raised his hand and brushed away Liu Piaopiao's broken hair.

"Piaopiao, you'd better comb your hair to look good."

Liu Piaopiao knew that Lu Ji was trying to encourage her to hold her head high and be more confident, but Liu Piaopiao was really beaten to pieces by the words that concubines can be thrown away at any time. She didn't recover for a long time, but Lu Ji didn't even know what to do.

She didn't even know when she was gone. She only realized when He Zhi called her.

"What's wrong?"

He Zhi's face was full of worry: "Girl, why are you so stunned? The prince has been gone for a long time."

"Oh." She responded, not knowing what to say.

He Zhi hugged her with concern: "Girl, don't take it to heart. It's like a concubine and a legitimate daughter. Let's just live our own lives."

Liu Piaopiao knew this, and she had never cared about it in the past. Her background was something she could not change with resentment. But these words always made her feel extremely uncomfortable when they came out of Lu Ji's mouth.

"It's not dawn yet, girl, please sleep a little longer."

Liu Piaopian nodded and suddenly found an earring beside the bed.

Wasn't this what she had lost in the previous chaos, but He Zhi found it again?

She felt warm in her heart, "Thank you Hezhi, for still remembering this little thing."

Hezhi was also confused, "What, girl?"

Liu Piaopiao was stunned. If He Zhi hadn't picked up this earring, it was Lu Ji. He actually remembered this gadget. Liu Piaopiao put the earrings properly, and felt inexplicably happy again. She actually slept well this time.

Sweet.

The next day, she woke up refreshed and followed Liu Wenyan home. Liu Piaopiao looked at Lu Ji and Lu Yan's honor guard along the way. Anyone who saw her eyes would know that she had something on her mind.

Liu Wenyan waved his hand in front of her eyes, a somewhat unpleasant reminder.

"Liu Piaopiao doesn't want toad to eat swan meat. His Highness the Crown Prince doesn't like you. Don't get carried away because of his good deeds and lose the honor of your daughter's family in vain."

Liu Piaopiao was too lazy to look at him and just said: "I am a toad, what are you? A big toad?"

Liu Wenyan was so angry with her that she wanted to hit him through the curtain. Liu Piaopiao retracted her head into the sedan. The lazy voice came, making Liu Wenyan's teeth itch.

"You should still worry about yourself. Dad will ask you what you did when we get back later."

Speaking of this, Liu Wenyan felt a little timid, "I was really scared to death last night."

Speaking of last night, Liu Piaopiao became angry.

"What are you afraid of when there are so many guards? As long as you pounce on them and show off, whether you save the second prince or the prince, you will prosper in the future."

But Liu Wenyan pointed at Liu Piaopiao and cursed: "What kind of peace of mind do you have? What if Sword Eyeless hurts his life? Don't think that I don't know, you just don't want to see me."

It is really difficult for a grown man to achieve great things if he is as indecisive as a woman.

Liu Piaopiao was too lazy to pay attention to him and ordered He Zhi to drive away Zhou Wenqing who was following behind.

She actually felt sick and uncomfortable when she saw him.

Hezhi came back soon and brought back a sentence.

"Girl, Zhou Wenqing said that there is a lot of gossip in the city, and he said that you don't have the face to pester His Highness the Crown Prince."

Liu Piaopiao paused, "What else did he say?"

"He lets the girl take care of herself."

Liu Piaopian smiled, the curve of the corners of her lips somewhat mocking.

"Hezhi, do you think it's better to follow the prince or to be a little Zuo Changshi?"

"Of course he is the prince."

"So what's a rumor?"

Words are spoken by outsiders, life is lived by oneself.

Who can't say a few unpleasant words, whether it's slander or arrangement? Even Emperor Taizu was spit on all the way. When he got to the point of high authority, all rumors would be

The smoke disappeared.

Liu Piaopiao has always been open-minded and said that these things will not affect her appetite for meals.

After entering the door of Liu Mansion, Liu Piaopiao was already prepared to be scolded and kneel in the ancestral hall. Someone must have reported everything that happened yesterday to Liu Yirong in detail.

But when she entered the house, she realized that what happened yesterday was nothing.

Su Xiao was crying out of breath in the hall. She was just recovering from her illness, but she could not withstand such a torment. Liu Piaopiao hurried forward to greet her, half-kneeling on the ground, and put her hand on Su Xiao's knee to comfort her:

"What's wrong, sister-in-law? Why are you crying like this?"

Su Xiao's eyes turned red, she pointed at Liu Wenyan who didn't know what was going on, and said sternly: "You ask what this beast did?"

Liu Wenyan was puzzled: "What do you care about me?"

Just as he was talking, several women came over from the backyard to chat with each other. Liu Piaopiao took a closer look and saw that these women were surrounding a young girl. The girl's eyebrows were watery and her waist was snake-like, and she was really charming. She looked so weak,

In fact, he was not at a disadvantage when he was entangled with several women. On the contrary, when he saw Liu Wenyan, he immediately cried and knelt on the ground and cried out softly.

"Wen Yan, Mei Niang, my life is so miserable!"

Before Liu Piaopiao could understand, she saw Liu Yufu rushing out like the wind, and her raised palm fell hard on Mei Niang's face.

"You bitch deserves to see your father!"

This slap was so powerful that Liu Yufu herself was knocked around.

When she saw Liu Wenyan, she rushed over hurriedly: "What a good thing you did, you brought this bitch to visit the Zhongshu Ling Mansion for nothing! This bitch has a child in her arms and I want you to give an explanation, but the sister-in-law's mother's family

Here, I was so angry that I almost fainted when I found out about this. Now that I am breaking off my engagement with Liu Anxu, it has spread that the Liu family is no longer interested in losing face! Now, drag this bitch out and beat her to death with sticks!"

Liu Wenyan was pulled by Liu Yufu, and her eyes were full of Mei Niang's tears.

The woman was sitting on the ground, her cheeks were swollen and her body was weak and boneless. I felt pity for her.

"Wen Yan, are you really so cruel? This is your first child!"

After hearing this, Liu Wenyan couldn't care less about losing face. She pushed Liu Yufu away, helped Mei Niang up and comforted the woman who couldn't help crying.

"Don't worry, I will definitely give you a title!"

Hearing this, Su Xiao could not hold back any longer. She felt filled with grievances and had no place to express her grievances to Liu Piaopiao, which turned into a long sigh.

"Liu Wenyan, where did you take me?"

Liu Wenyan didn't look at Lidya Su, maybe because he felt guilty, or maybe he was tired of his first wife.

"You want to marry me, I didn't ask to marry you."

Not to mention Su Xiao, even Liu Yufu couldn't stand it. She was pushed by Liu Wenyan, and she was already angry. Now she was even more angry and trembling. She got up from the ground, not caring about the family.

With the face of a wealthy family, he pulled Liu Wenyan's collar and cursed: "You are a beast, you spoil your concubine and destroy your wife. My father is currently appeasing the Su family. It is not convenient for you and me to get in front of him. But don't forget, I want to

As a Crown Princess, if you make such a fuss, I will become a joke to the whole Yunjing! You don’t care about yourself, nor the family’s appearance. You and this bitch die together!”

Liu Wenyan opened Liu Yufu's hand: "What are you dreaming about? Haven't you heard enough of the rumors in the city? Then I will tell you carefully. When he was assassinated yesterday, His Highness the Crown Prince personally took off his robe to cover Liu Yufu.

Piao Piao. He would rather get entangled with a concubine than even look at you, Liu Yufu, you are such a joke!"

Liu Yufu completely collapsed and she screamed: "Shut up!"
