Di Xin was reviewing today's events to see if there were any errors or omissions. Suddenly his expression changed and there was a knock on the study door.
"Come in."
After seeing that the person who came in was Xizi, Di Xin asked strangely: "It's already very late, why aren't you sleeping yet?"
Even though Xizi no longer lives in the General's Mansion because of the think tank's affairs, there is still a bedroom left for her in the mansion where she can stay whenever she comes back.
Xizi lowered his head and said, "I...I can't sleep."
Only then did Di Xin realize that Xizi was no longer wearing men's clothes specially prepared for work convenience, but was wearing the same clothes as when she was a maid.
Although they were clothes worn as a maid, Di Xin never raised her as a maid, so even at that time, everything she had to eat and wear was of excellent quality. The fabrics were made of silk and satin, and the sizes were those of the tailor in the house.
Specially sewn according to body shape.
On her head was the first pearl hairpin Di Xin bought for her in Taicang Mansion.
Xizi has an alluring appearance, and tonight she specially put on a little light makeup, and there was a hint of shame on her rosy cheeks, making her even more charming.
Di Xin, who had not seen Xizi dressed like this for a long time, could not help but breathe quickly.
Sensing Di Xin's reaction, Xizi's face became even more ashamed, but uncharacteristically, she raised her head and looked at Di Xin who was sitting behind the desk.
Although the body was trembling slightly, his hands moved to his waist little by little, slowly but firmly untying the silk ribbon, letting it fall to the ground, and then covering the silk ribbon piece by piece with his clothes.
Even the last bellyband and underwear.
A few months ago, her parents were killed and the village was massacred. She had nowhere to go. And for a weak woman to act alone in a place where bandits and bandits were rampant, she didn't need to think about the consequences.
When a village was about to suffer the same fate as his own, Xizi saw dozens of people rushing out of Di Xin's convoy to kill the horse thieves, and sent people to help the village reorganize.
So, Xizi decided to try his luck.
Xizi was naturally beautiful, but scoundrels from her own village or neighboring villages often whistled at her, trying to take advantage of her. Therefore, although she was untouched, she was also precocious.
Therefore, she was already prepared. It would be fine if the team owner just refused her request, but if he wanted to use force against her, then even though she was light, she could not let others insult her.
She would choose to commit suicide to preserve her reputation.
In fact, her request was not very high. She just hoped that the owner of the team could give her some food and let her go with the team to Jizhou to join her uncle.
Unexpectedly, the direction of the motorcade was completely different from that of Jizhou, but the owner of the motorcade, His Royal Highness Prince Yu, kindly took her in and never did anything wrong to her because of her appearance.
Not only that, His Royal Highness King Yu strictly abided by the etiquette between men and women along the way, never gave orders because of his status, and completely treated her as a person of the same status.
Xizi once observed that His Highness Prince Yu did not treat her like this alone, but treated everyone equally.
Later, she was also impressed by His Highness Prince Yu's knowledge and insights.
And after arriving at Yanque Pass, there is no need for it. In such a feudal patriarchal society, it is emphasized that a woman's lack of talent is a virtue, and a woman only needs to take care of her husband and raise her children at home. However, His Royal Highness Prince Yu did not do it because of her
Although she was a woman, she was allowed to participate in political affairs, and later the newly formed think tank was handed over to her.
From the initial defensiveness, to the subdued and final admiration, Xizi was inadvertently broken through by Di Xin step by step.
Originally, Xizi thought that His Highness Prince Yu was a descendant of the royal family, and might become the Emperor of Dali with tens of millions of people in the future, but she was just a commoner who got lucky. She could stay with His Highness Prince Yu and help him solve his problems.
She is the greatest blessing.
And she didn't dare to force anything more.
But a few days ago, Mr. Zeng Hongshen and Zeng brought back the news that His Royal Highness Prince Yu had been killed. At that time, Xizi felt that the whole world was dark, but God was wise, and His Highness Prince Yu finally returned safely.
It was through this sudden change that Xizi finally understood what impermanence is.
So, she made a decision.
Since the future is uncertain, don't let yourself have any regrets now.
Women among common people have a certain decisiveness. After making a decision, Xizi threw all the etiquette, honor and humbleness behind her mind. She wanted to become the woman of His Royal Highness Prince Yu, even if she had no status.
However, despite making the decision, Xizi was still full of uneasiness.
She didn't know what His Royal Highness Prince Yu felt towards her. What if he thought she was contemptuous and a shameless woman?
Therefore, although she endured great shame and exposed her body naked in front of His Highness Prince Yu, she did not have the courage to take another step closer.
Di Xin sighed slightly.
He is not a dull person, and even if he is dull and becomes enlightened after having so many women, how could he not see Xizi's feelings for him?
But he didn't expect that Xizi's feelings for him were so deep.
He knew that if he kicked Xizi out today, there would be corpses everywhere in the general's mansion tomorrow.
This is not alarmist. In such a feudal patriarchal society, a woman's reputation is more precious than her life. Except for prostitutes, once a woman loses her reputation, there is only death waiting for her.
Even if no third person knew what happened tonight, with Xizi's temperament and the concepts he had received since childhood, he would not choose to live alone.
Tonight, Xizi had a desperate attitude, just walking to the study and taking off her clothes took all her strength. Now Di Xin's sigh was like the last straw that broke the camel's back.
Sure enough, His Highness Prince Yu thought she was an unruly woman.
As Di Xin sighed, Xizi couldn't hold on anymore and fell on his clothes, tears streaming down the corners of his eyes, and the will to die sprouted in his heart.
In the haze of tears, she saw Di Xin get up from behind the desk, take the robe from the hanger, come over and gently wrap it around her naked body.
, looking at the face so close at hand, Xizi opened his mouth to shout "Your Highness", but the words got stuck in his throat and he was unable to shout out.
Di Xin glanced at Xizi with some distress and gently hugged her.
Forget it, since this is his cause and effect, then just take his responsibility.
"Are you really ready?"
"Um."
With a sound as light as a mosquito's fly, Di Xin left the study with Xizi wrapped only in a robe.
