Chapter 91 The relationship with this king is inseparable in this life
"I... I just sympathize with the princess." Mrs. Mei paused and replied.
"Why do you sympathize with her?" Ximen Jingxuan asked.
However, Ximen Jingxuan did not intend to really wait for Mrs. Mei's answer, and strode away from Mrs. Mei.
Ximen Hen went with him.
Mrs. Mei turned around and her eyes followed the two of them, or rather she only followed the figure that was less royal and more heroic, and did not move away for a long time.
It wasn't until she heard Yan'er's uncontrollable crying coming from the room behind her that Mrs. Mei came back to her senses. She gently glanced at the closed door of the room and looked towards the room where Ximen Jingxuan and Ximen Hen had completely disappeared.
I walked across the pond and bridge, intending to return to my residence.
"Doctor, what's the extent of Miss's injury? This arrow penetrated her back so deep." Yan'er asked crying as she looked at the arrow the doctor took out of Lin Xiner's body.
The arrow penetrated two inches into the body and almost penetrated. Yan'er didn't dare to think what would happen if the arrow happened to go through her heart. She would never see the young lady again.
"Princess Xuan is very lucky. The arrow missed her heart by just a few inches. Fortunately, her life was not injured." The doctor said, "It's just that the injury is very serious. It will take more than a month for her body to recover at the earliest."
"Yan'er will serve you with all your heart." Yan'er wiped away her tears and nodded.
The secret room was always dark, lit by prepared candles. Yi Yao stayed inside for who knows how long.
After hearing the voice transmitted by the Young Palace Master that time, Yi Yao never heard any movement again.
She tried to leave by herself, but she couldn't even open the stone door, and she couldn't find a breakthrough anywhere else.
Just when Yi Yao was racking her brains to think of a solution, the stone door suddenly made a sound.
Yi Yao looked at Shimen happily, but when she saw it was Ximen Jingxuan, she was disappointed and her expression darkened.
"Who do you think it could be?" Ximen Jingxuan walked towards Yi Yao.
The sudden change in her expression made him feel very uncomfortable. What made him even more curious was who did she hope to see? Who else could she think could appear here... to save her?
Ximen Jingxuan thought of the assassin just now. He didn't know his origin at first, and he hoped to see this woman use her skills to escape from the secret room. Then he suddenly appeared again and went to rescue Lin Xiner, but he saw this woman's sudden change.
With his expression, Ximen Jingxuan connected the assassin to Shui Yue Gong. Could it be that the assassin was related to her? If so, targeting a slave, Shui Yue Gong’s approach is really puzzling. This woman is under his
In the hands, what else do the people of Water Moon Palace want to do next?
Yi Yao did not answer Ximen Jingxuan's question and sat on the bed without saying a word.
"Someone just shot a hidden arrow and wounded my princess. Is he the person you want to see?" Ximen Jingxuan stood in front of Yi Yao and asked.
He knew that this woman would not answer directly, and he did not intend to hear the answer from her mouth. He only needed to observe the woman's reaction to judge.
"Stabbed the princess?" Surprise flashed across Yi Yao's face. Was the young palace master injured?
However, from Ximen Jingxuan's point of view, her surprise was not about Lin Xiner, but about the assassin. She really cared about the assassin.
"Although I don't know how the people in Shuiyue Palace want to rescue you, I can tell you that unless you use your own ability to leave, don't expect them to be able to save you." Ximen Jingxuan said.
The face of the woman sitting on the bed really lacked the sharp look when he first saw her, and the demeanor of taking charge of the overall situation. If he wanted to see the impact he had that day again, he had to go
Force her to find the "her" that he will never forget.
"That assassin is not from Shuiyue Palace." Yi Yao knew that Ximen Jingxuan had misunderstood. People from Shuiyue Palace would never harm the young palace master, but she could not tell Ximen Jingxuan this reason.
What worried her even more was the young palace master's injury. She must have had to face the danger to hide herself. Who was hiding in the dark and harming others?
"So sure?" Ximen Jingxuan asked.
"Yes, Shuiyue Palace never does anything like assassins." Yi Yao said. Shuiyue Palace has been involved in many places, but it has never participated in things like assassinations. The palace owner said that Shuiyue Palace is doing well in the world.
Deduan, although he is in the business of collecting money and doing things based on his strength, there are two things he should not do. One is not to bully the weak arbitrarily, and the other is not to do the assassin business and hide in the dark to kill people. From the palace master's point of view, these two things
Those are all the deeds of rats and their ilk.
Yes, Ximen Jingxuan had never heard of anyone from Shuiyue Palace committing an assassination. So why did the assassin come? How did the people from Shuiyue Palace plan to meet this woman? After all, her status in Shuiyue Palace was not low.
No one will care.
"If the prince is just asking about the assassin, I don't have any high opinion. Besides, the affairs of Prince Xuan's Mansion have nothing to do with Shuiyue Palace." Yi Yao said, looking straight ahead with cold eyes.
She knew that the only thing she could do at this time was to help the Young Palace Master put aside the relationship with Shuiyue Palace, and not let Ximen Jingxuan see that she cared about the Young Palace Master's injury.
"It doesn't matter?" Ximen Jingxuan leaned down, raised his hand and hooked Yi Yao's chin, forcing her to look at him, "If it didn't matter, would you have rescued Lin Xiner in the Bamboo Forest? Your Shuiyue Palace would have kidnapped Lin Xiner
Negotiate terms with me to pardon Xiaoyao Hou's death penalty? You will visit Prince Xuan's Mansion at night and have a relationship with me that you can't let go of in this lifetime?"
"Shuiyue Palace will not bully the weak, and naturally will not see the weak being bullied. I rescued Princess Xuan out of my own dissatisfaction. Kidnapping Princess Xuan and rescuing Xiaoyao Hou was the deal Shuiyue Palace promised to do. As for the night visit to Prince Xuan's Mansion——
"Yiyao knew that Ximen Jingxuan was referring to the time when Lin Xiner borrowed her identity to sneak into Prince Xuan's mansion before the wedding. What happened that time?
She now understood that Prince Xuan regarded her as a thorn in his side to hurt her and trap her. In fact, the person he wanted to deal with should really be the Young Palace Master, but what he remembered was his own face.
"How?" Seeing Yi Yao pause, Ximen Jingxuan tightened his fingers on Yi Yao's chin, but his expression when looking at Yi Yao was as indifferent as ever, as if he didn't care, because his real concern was buried deep in his heart.
.
"I have nothing to say." Yi Yao said.
"I have nothing to say." Ximen Jingxuan came forward, his handsome face close to Yi Yao's nose.
Yi Yao felt her ears feel hot. She didn't dare to move, for fear that she would touch the tip of Ximen Jingxuan's nose.
This feeling made her a little suffocated.
"Do you want to review the situation of that day with me again?" Ximen Jingxuan looked at the panic flashing in Yi Yao's eyes, with a bit of timidity.
