Chapter 223 Several times!
By this time, Dugujian was even more convinced of his guess.
The death of Prince Mu He must have something to do with them.
But he couldn't figure out what kind of relationship method it was.
So he sat on his horse and glanced at them secretly from time to time, trying to figure out what was going on.
It wasn't that he wanted to avenge Prince Mu He or something like that, he just couldn't hold back his burning curiosity.
Finally, Liu Qinbing bought a robe from someone else and returned.
He didn't care to notice the inexplicable atmosphere at this time. As soon as he came over, he slipped off the horse, opened his clothes, and said earnestly to Shen Liuzhen:
"Come on, Mr. Lang, come down quickly and put on your clothes."
After hearing this, Shen Liuzhen obediently got off his horse and walked to him. Under Liu Qinbing's service, he put on his clothes and tied his belt. He finally looked like a normal person.
He raised his head and smiled at Xie Yuan, smiling, and with a glance, the smile on his face became a little unnatural.
Xie Yuan could naturally see the subtle differences in his expression, and quickly followed his gaze and looked down.
Lone Jian also followed Xie Yuan's reaction and looked down.
Shen Liuzhen rolled up his sleeves and suddenly said loudly: "What about... I still need to find a place to wash my face."
When Dugu Jian and Xie Yuan heard this, they both looked at him. They didn't understand why he suddenly cared about the gray on his face.
Liu Qinbing agreed very much and said: "Ah... that's okay, let's go. There is a village a little further ahead, and there is a small river next to it. Go there and wash yourself."
Shen Liuzhen walked over to get on his horse. As soon as he stepped on the stirrups, Xie Yuan subconsciously reached out, grabbed his hand, and pulled him up.
It's really nothing like this for ordinary people... The key is that Xie Yuan's pulling posture is a bit handsome...
Dugu Jian's eyes lit up, and he became even more curious about the little maid brought by Shen Liuzhen.
"Let's go, let's go... After washing, we can go back." Shen Liuzhen held Xie Yuan in his arms, pulled the reins and shook them, turned around and headed forward, leaving the others behind.
Xie Yuan didn't know why and asked: "What's wrong?"
Shen Liuzhen put his lips close to Xie Yuan's ear and whispered: "The soles of your shoes are full of blood. Aren't you going back to expose them?"
When Xie Yuan heard this, he quickly lowered his head to check. Shen Liuzhen put his arm around her to prevent her from looking, and said:
"Don't look, everyone behind you will see you when you lift the sole of your shoe."
Xie Yuan was obedient and stopped moving. She was in a very unhappy mood.
Being a dispensable little maid these past few days is already frustrating and uncomfortable for her, who is very active.
I thought I could be freed by killing Prince Mu He today, but I ended up having to hold it in here.
Forget it if you just hold it in here...you still have to fight your way into the wolf's den despite the opening.
Xie Yuan pursed his lips, walked around Shen Liuzhen's shoulder, glanced back, and asked: "You don't believe the people the emperor sent you? Let's have a quarrel at the front, and you and I can just go our separate ways. That's it." neat. ”
Shen Liuzhen was silent for a while and said slowly:
"A Yuan, at this time, you should be a bystander without any movement or abnormality. If you left suddenly and aroused people's suspicion and attention, then the flaw that would not have been discovered by others might be because of suspicion. The target was exposed instead.
It’s safe if you leave... What should I do? Leave me here to become the target of their suspected attack, and then be cramped and skinned by a group of Prince Muhe’s people?”
Xie Yuan's lips moved and he stopped talking.
Originally she wanted to say: I believe you have the ability to exonerate yourself and ensure your own safety.
But what she said was a bit too ruthless. No matter how capable he was, there was no reason for her to put him in danger.
"Then what do you think we should do? You don't want to go to the river to wash it. Not to mention that the blood stains can't be cleaned at all. These shoes can't be dried even if they are stained with water. Isn't it more suspicious?" Xie Yuan lowered his voice and said.
"Stupid, why are you washing? When the time comes, you will use the excuse that your shoes accidentally got wet, throw them into the river, and change to another pair, right?"
Xie Yuan turned around and looked at him. Their faces were so close and their eyes were facing each other. It should have been an ambiguous and affectionate gesture, but Xie Yuan's red phoenix eyes were still astonishingly powerful and he asked coldly:
"Shen Liuzhen, who do you think is stupid?"
"I, I, I..." Shen Liuzhen's eyes wandered, and he immediately became scared.
In this way, the two finally arrived at the river. Under the cover of Shen Liuzhen, Xie Yuan carefully dismounted from the horse with his skirt covering his boots.
Then, one after the other, they came to the edge of a gentle shoal.
Shen Liuzhen squatted down very naturally, took some water to wash his face, while Xie Yuan stood behind him at a loss.
She couldn't just walk into the river for no apparent reason, could she?
Shen Liuzhen took the water and washed it twice. When he looked back, he saw Xie Yuan standing there with a serious look on his face, as stiff as if facing a powerful enemy.
He smiled instantly, and said to her in a gentle and somewhat unscrupulous tone:
"What are you doing standing still? Why don't you come here quickly and take a look at your husband's face? Are there any areas that haven't been cleaned?"
At this time, the sky had entered dusk, and the expressions on their faces were somewhat unclear. But Shen Liuzhen was still sure. At this time, Xie Yuan rolled his eyes with a cold face.
He laughed softly and squatted by the water, with some water stains on his face, twisting his body and looking at her, waiting for her to come over.
Xie Yuan walked over directly, lifted up his skirt, and deliberately stood inside the river beach so that his boots could get wet, and squatted down.
Then he dipped one hand into the water and wiped it on Shen Liuzhen's face.
The first two times her hands were not heavy, she almost pushed Shen Liuzhen down into the river. But Shen Liuzhen kept his eyes closed, with a smile on his face, and those two shallow dimples, letting her shave.
Xie Yuan instantly softened his heart and no longer thought of taking the opportunity to retaliate against him.
Then his hands gradually became lighter and he carefully wiped away the unwashed dust on his face step by step.
Two young people were squatting by the river in the evening as darkness was approaching.
One obediently stretched out his face, and the other gently took the water and wiped the dirt on the other's face. There was always some beautiful feeling in it, which made the onlookers look at it and not ignore it.
Dugu Jian and Liu Qinbing both thought so.
So they looked at each other inexplicably and turned their faces away.
Xie Yuan looked at it and saw that his face had been washed clean, so he raised his arm and used his sleeves to wipe the water off his face one by one.
"A Yuan..." Shen Liuzhen closed his eyes, feeling Xie Yuan's movements, and couldn't help but call out, his tone was gentle and affectionate.
Xie Yuan was focused on getting him wet and had no other thoughts, so naturally she couldn't understand it. She just said "Huh?" subconsciously.
"...It's okay." Shen Liuzhen said.
Xie Yuan's hand wiping his face froze immediately. He looked at him coldly and said angrily in a low voice:
"Several times! Why do you always keep people silent?! Do you have to get a good punch from me before you are willing to say the second half of the sentence completely?!"
