After hearing the news, Xiyan slowly walked out from behind the pillar. Her steps were a little slow and her head was drooped. She looked like a child who had made a mistake.
"Xi Yan?" Bei Mingchen called her suspiciously.
Seeing Xi Yan back, Bei Mingchen was surprised and happy. He was very happy that Xi Yan finally came back safely. However, Bei Mingchen's expression at this moment was more surprised that Xi Yan came back with Shuo Jin.
In addition, he was still a little angry. After all, they had worked so hard to find Xiyan all night, and she actually stayed with Shuojin safely.
Moreover, Bei Mingchen remembered that Xiyan did not have such clothes!
"I'm here." Xiyan agreed softly.
"Where were you last night? You made me worried."
After hesitating for a moment, Bei Mingchen slowly walked to Xiyan and looked at Xiyan with concern.
"me……"
At this moment, Xiyan was even more scared. She knew that the prince would be very angry if she didn't say goodbye last night.
In fact, Xiyan herself didn't expect that she would actually make such a big fuss last night. She lowered her head tightly and spoke hesitantly, wanting to explain to Bei Mingchen, but she couldn't say anything for a long time.
So.
In the end, Shuojin stepped forward to save her.
"Okay, everyone hasn't had a good rest all night, so let's take a good rest first!"
Shuojin spoke in an extremely relaxed tone, smiling carelessly. After he finished speaking, he glanced at Xiyan, and then turned to look at Bei Mingchen.
Having said this, Bei Mingchen didn't feel like saying anything more, so he had no choice but to follow Shuojin's wishes.
"I am the king who is being abrupt."
Bei Mingchen spoke softly to Xiyan, and before Xiyan could answer, Bei Mingchen was arranging the next thing.
"Young lady stayed out alone last night. You must have suffered a lot, right? Why don't you take a rest early! I'll ask the kitchen to prepare some food for you..."
With that said, Bei Mingchen wanted to pull Xiyan over.
"Well, uh..."
Xiyan was just about to say that she was not tired and that she was fine. She even summoned up some courage to explain to Bei Mingchen carefully what happened last night. By the way, she also admitted her mistake to him.
Say something that shouldn't worry him so much.
However, before she could say anything, someone immediately spoke and suppressed her words.
"Girl, you must be quite tired. Just listen to the prince and go back and have a good rest." Shuo Jin said without hesitation.
"Miss Xiyan, let's go."
As Bei Mingchen spoke, he was about to gently take Xiyan's hand and take her back to her courtyard. I don't know what happened, but as soon as Bei Mingchen's hand touched her, Xiyan twitched violently.
After a moment, she even felt that her hands were a little stiff and her steps were stiff. The scene at that time seemed a little awkward.
"Your Majesty, please stay."
Just as the two of them were about to leave, Shuojin stopped Bei Mingchen. After all, he came to Prince Xiao's Mansion today not just to send Miss Xiyan back.
Shuojin still has his purpose!
This time it was all for his selfish reasons!
"What's wrong?"
After hearing those words, Bei Mingchen slowly stopped and asked Shuojin in confusion. Xiyan also stopped.
"I'm looking for you. Of course I have something to discuss with you."
Shuojin spoke to Bei Mingchen without hesitation. At this moment, Shuojin's expression looked very serious and serious, and his usual playfulness was gone.
"So, girl, you?"
It seemed that Shuojin had to let him stay. Bei Mingchen slowly turned his head, glanced at Xiyan standing beside him, and said softly.
"It doesn't matter, Your Majesty, I, I can just go back by myself."
Xiyan was also very sensible. Seeing that the two of them really wanted to discuss something important, she chose to avoid it. After that, Xiyan left there silently and returned to her own courtyard.
"Okay, these people are gone. Tell me what you have to do. After that, you can leave as soon as possible."
After Xiyan left, Bei Mingchen said angrily to Shuojin. He just hoped that this person would leave Prince Xiao's Mansion as soon as possible. After all, if he stayed in the Prince's Mansion for a little longer, their situation would become more dangerous.
point.
However, what Shuo Jin wants to talk about today cannot be explained clearly in just one or two sentences.
"Something important is happening in Huanqing Pavilion. I would like to discuss it with the prince. I wonder if the prince would be willing to move to his humble abode?"
Shuo Jin bowed respectfully to Bei Mingchen, which was an extremely humble courtesy for a monarch and his ministers. The tone and attitude of his words were also extremely respectful, and at this moment, his attitude seemed to be very upright.
In fact, Shuojin still had some selfish motives. Not only did he want to explain this matter clearly, he also hoped not to disturb Miss Xiyan, hoping that she would never know this.
That’s why Shuojin chose Huanqing Pavilion as the venue this time.
"Let's go." Bei Mingchen agreed to Shuojin without hesitation.
After saying that, the two people left Prince Xiao's Mansion one after another, and soon arrived at Huanqing Pavilion.
After arriving at Huanqing Pavilion, Shuojin's attitude changed 180 degrees. This was not only because this was his territory, but also because he really couldn't bear it anymore.
As soon as Shuojin came up, he punched Bei Mingchen hard, causing Bei Mingchen to stagger several steps.
Although Shuojin didn't use all his strength in that punch, he still had some reservations. However, this was the first time Shuojin had punched Bei Mingchen, and it was also the first time he had been so angry.
"You are crazy!"
This violent blow made Bei Mingchen take two steps back. After he stood firm, he shouted at Shuojin and gently wiped the blood on the corner of his mouth with his right hand.
At this moment, his eyes suddenly became cold and sharp.
"Bei Mingchen, are you still a human being?"
Shuojin completely ignored Bei Mingchen and just continued to curse at him.
After listening to this, think about what he experienced last night. Think about it, Xi Yan spent almost the whole day with him yesterday. Bei Mingchen seemed to understand something. The reason why Shuo Jin thought so,
He must have heard something from Xiyan.
"Did Miss Xiyan say something to you?"
Bei Mingchen took two steps forward and walked in front of Shuojin, staring straight at him, and his harsh tone made people feel numb all over.
"She didn't say anything to me." Shuojin said without hesitation. At this moment, Shuojin was looking at Bei Mingchen intently.
"That girl put the knife directly on my neck."
As he spoke, Shuojin moved forward, took another step, and stared at him fiercely from a position closer to Bei Mingchen. At this moment, Shuojin's eyes were colder than a life-threatening dagger, and the same in his eyes.
A raging fire burned.
"so what?"
Facing this powerful aura, Bei Mingchen couldn't help but take two steps back. He subconsciously dodged Shuojin's gaze, but still pretended to be unaware and asked Shuojin.
"Hey, Bei Mingchen, don't pretend to be confused here."
Hearing this, Shuojin couldn't help but sneered.
This time, Shuo Jin said it very straightforwardly, and he really didn't leave any emotion behind. Bei Mingchen, since you want to pretend to be confused in front of me, then I will tell you the truth. So far, it seems that
No trace of affection can be left.
"I have done everything for you these years! I have devoted myself wholeheartedly to you, and how many times have I narrowly escaped death for you? But you want to kill me!"
Shuojin gritted his teeth and said every word with such emphasis.
Having said this, Bei Mingchen also understood that there was no point in being more secretive. No matter how Shuojin knew all this, since he already knew this, there was no need to continue to hide it from him.
It’s on.
"Yes, I want to kill you, but what can I do?" Bei Mingchen said coldly. "Also, don't talk about yourself being so great. Are you doing this for me or for you?
For yourself?"
"Bei Mingchen, you are simply unreasonable."
After hearing those words, Shuojin frowned, shook his head slightly, and then couldn't help but sigh.
die?
He Shuojin is not afraid of this. He was born once and again when he was ten years old. After all, he can be regarded as a person who has died twice. By now, he has already put life and death aside.
Besides, how easy is it to kill him? There are countless people in the world who want to kill him, and compared with those people, Bei Mingchen's strength is not worth mentioning at all.
The reason why Shuojin felt that Bei Mingchen was unreasonable was because he didn't expect that he could be so greedy. He was obviously so loyal to him and willing to be loyal to him, but he actually had the idea of killing himself!
"You obviously already have so much, why are you still greedy?"
Shuojin frowned slightly and looked at Bei Mingchen, looking at his confident look. For a moment, he felt that he was so strange.
"Have that much? Haha."
Having said this, Bei Mingchen started laughing again. He looked crazy, even the corners of his eyes were arrogant.
Just like the rumors, the fifth prince is a madman.
"It's just that you think so!"
Then Bei Mingchen put away his smile again, glared at Shuojin with a fierce look, and said through gritted teeth.
In Bei Mingchen's eyes, Shuojin is as superficial as everyone else. He can only see the surface of everything and does not understand his true situation at all.
"You obviously already have the best in everything, why are you still not satisfied?"
Seeing such a scene, Shuo Jin let out a long sigh and shook his head helplessly, as if he was the elder in front of Bei Mingchen.
To be a prince, with fine clothes and fine food, this is what many people dream of.
