"I'm hungry. I've only eaten one meal since yesterday."
Gululu!
The belly gave her a face at the right time.
This woman aroused his desire too easily. In front of her, he was like a wild wolf who never had enough to eat.
Xiao Mingxuan took a deep breath and finally endured his own suffering and lay back on the bed.
He turned to look at her face, not daring to move his gaze downwards for a moment, fearing that if he looked at her too much, he would not be able to help but press her down and nibble on her.
Before the tug-of-war between the two ended on the bed, they heard footsteps passing by outside the house, and then a hesitant knock on the door.
"Master...Master?"
It was Qin Yin's voice.
With a bitter look on his face, he knocked on his master's door early in the morning, determined to die.
He is a man, and he knows very well that getting up in the morning is the time when men are most impulsive and angry, and he does not want to disturb his master's work.
But things have priorities, and it is best to report this matter to the master as soon as possible.
After a long time, the room was silent.
Qin Yin gritted his teeth and spoke again tremblingly.
"master."
On the big bed in the room, Luo Jiuli blushed, pushed Xiao Mingxuan, and whispered.
"Qin Yin is the one who knows the best. Go quickly. It must be an emergency."
Xiao Mingxuan let out a slightly irritated groan towards the door.
"Wait."
Outside the door, Qin Yin shrank his neck and exhaled.
He could clearly feel his master's cold gaze from his hair to the soles of his feet.
Xiao Mingxuan got up and put on his clothes with great reluctance, and kissed Luo Jiuli on the forehead.
"I'll let the kitchen prepare the food, and you can wash up."
"Um."
Luo Jiuli wrapped herself tightly in the quilt and nodded.
The door opened, and Xiao Mingxuan stood at the door, giving Qin Yin a hard look.
"What's up?"
Qin Yin glanced at the room and hesitated to speak.
"Go to the study."
The master and servant, one behind the other, closed the door and walked to the study.
Inside the house, a maid brought in hot water, and Luo Jiuli took a comfortable hot bath.
Another maid came in with brand new clothes.
Luo Jiuli changed into clean clothes again.
"Second Miss, the food is ready."
The housekeeper stood at the door, lowered his head and lowered his eyebrows, not daring to look into the room.
Before last night, Luo Jiuli was just the second daughter of the Duke of Yiguo.
But after last night, Luo Jiuli became the mistress of the Nine Princes' Mansion.
Although she and the prince are not married yet, the prince treats her like jewels, so the servants like them must be respectful and respectful.
A maid helped Luo Jiuli out of the house.
In fact, Luo Jiuli was not used to being served by so many people close by, so she couldn't stand it. When she refused, these maids knelt on their knees.
This habit of kneeling down on her at every turn really hit her weak point.
"Where is the prince?"
Luo Jiuli looked at the housekeeper.
"Where am I?"
Outside the hospital, Xiao Mingxuan put on his iconic red gold belt circled Xuanyi again.
Luo Jiuli looked at his exquisite and handsome appearance, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips, with a smile reaching his eyes.
Xiao Mingxuan was startled for a moment, and in the next moment, his figure was in front of him, and his big hand wrapped around her small hand.
"Qin Yin has something urgent to do with you?"
Luo Jiuli spoke warmly.
"If there's something urgent, you don't have to accompany me to dinner. You can go and get busy."
"nothing."
Xiao Mingxuan held her hand and walked down the steps.
"Your Majesty has called you, but don't be in a hurry. You will enter the palace after dinner."
The emperor has called you, are you not in a hurry?
Luo Jiuli accepted this reason and did not reveal his intention to accompany her to dinner.
The two held hands and left the main courtyard and went to the flower hall.
The round table in the flower hall was filled with Luo Jiuli's favorite dishes.
Xiao Mingxuan said while picking up food for her:
"After dinner, I will send someone to take you back home."
"Um."
Luo Jiuli nodded.
From yesterday to today, I don’t know how worried my mother should be about her.
Xiao Mingxuan said again:
"Where is the Duke's wife? I don't dare to tell the truth. After I leave the palace, I will personally go to your door to apologize."
When Luo Jiuli heard this, he held the green vegetables between his fingers.
"Why do you have to bear the burden of sin?"
Xiao Mingxuan raised his head and smiled ambiguously at her.
"If you and I were already married, I wouldn't have to bear the burden of apology."
"Sigh! Shameless."
Luo Jiuli was just being open, but in front of so many servants in the flower hall, how could he not blush when the maid was teased in front of him.
Xiao Mingxuan looked at her peach-like face and swallowed unconsciously.
On the side, the butler had already led all the servants and maids out of the flower hall.
"After a night, you seem to be more beautiful."
His voice was hoarse, and he clasped her slender waist with his big hands, lifted her up easily, and then let her sit astride his lap.
Luo Jiuli's ears were red, and he looked around. There were no traces of the servants and maids anywhere in the flower hall.
She stretched out her hands on her waist, trying to pry his fingers apart, and she was so coquettish that she was fierce.
"Speak nicely, but if you start to touch me, I will destroy you."
Damn it, this posture makes people blush so easily.
"How can you destroy me? Like last night?"
Xiao Mingxuan's low laughter came from his chest.
"Just give me a slap like your father did."
The blushing Luo Jiuli looked over suddenly.
"What do you mean? When did you meet my father?"
"Ten days ago."
Xiao Mingxuan put her hand on his chest.
"You haven't listened to my explanation, so I will tell you all the truth today to prevent you from thinking wildly."
He hugged her, adjusted his sitting posture, and continued.
"I did not leave the capital under the order, but went to the Liyang military camp privately to meet your father."
Luo Jiuli said nothing, as if he understood something.
Xiao Mingxuan saw that she was looking at him motionless, so he told Luo Jiuli the conversation between him and the Duke at the Liyang military camp.
"Li'er, I wanted to go directly to the Duke's Mansion to find you after I came back from Liyang and tell you all the truth, but you -"
He smiled and sighed helplessly.
"As for the truth, I only learned about it when I lured Yan Tinglian out. I originally made up my mind to tell you, but every time I wanted to tell you, various situations always happened."
"Especially after Concubine Hu, Grand Sima and the Queen Mother returned to Beijing, all kinds of conspiracies and schemes against you and the Duke's Mansion emerged one after another. For your safety and the safety of the Duke's Mansion, I had to conceal this matter for the time being.
exist."
Luo Jiuli was silent for a moment, then hummed.
"Why didn't you come to me in the first place?"
Xiao Mingxuan hugged her tightly, and her two faces were very close.
Eyes looked into eyes, the tips of noses touched the tips of noses, and the breaths between the lips were entangled and impossible to separate.
"After that night, I left Beijing and sent people to look for him privately."
"It's just that no one thought that you would be the one who solved Qian Bu Yao for me."
