When Xie Xiao regained consciousness, he heard someone muttering something beside him. The caution of walking outside all year round prevented him from opening his eyes immediately.
However, he regretted it the next moment.
Because he heard a somewhat familiar voice beside him saying: "Fortunately, my nose was not flattened, but there is nothing wrong with my brain, right?"
Another girl who was a bit unfamiliar asked doubtfully: "You didn't fall on your face, let alone your head, right?"
"But he drank a lot and may have damaged his brain." A familiar voice said.
"How about I have hangover medicine here, give him some first?" said the strange girl.
"Okay." A familiar voice said, "If he doesn't wake up, we really have no choice but to throw him back to Prince Ancheng's Mansion."
The next moment a pill was stuffed into his mouth, and at that moment Xie Xiao began to regret why he had to go out tonight.
Although he tried his best to resist, the pill seemed to melt in his mouth. Even if he didn't want to swallow it, the strange taste inevitably hit his forehead.
Xie Xiao felt that his whole body had stiffened instantly. He never wanted to drink again in his life.
I have never tasted anything so delicious!
The person inserting the medicine seemed to sense his resistance, reached out and tapped his acupuncture point lightly, then quickly lifted his chin upwards, and the medicine that had turned into liquid flowed into his throat uncontrollably.
Xie Xiao suddenly opened her eyes and saw a small and childish girl's face.
"Cough cough cough!"
"Ah, you're awake? My medicine is really effective!" Qin Yao'er raised her head happily and said to Luo Jun.
Luo Jun shook his head and took a look, and naturally saw clearly Xie Xiao's stiff and darkened face, and thought to himself: "It may not be that your medicine is effective, but it is definitely unpalatable. Look at Xie Shizi's handsome face.
What's going on?"
Although he felt infinite sympathy for Xie Xiao who had suffered from Qin Yao'er's poison, Luo Junyao still looked concerned on the surface, "Mr. Xie, you are finally awake. How are you? Do you feel any discomfort? Are you dizzy?
"
Xie Xiao sat up, opened her mouth, and felt a strange taste in her mouth began to enter her nose. She quickly turned her head away and stopped talking.
He is a decent and refined person, and he really cannot accept that he smells weird in front of others.
In fact, this is because Xie Xiao is overly worried. Although Qin Yao'er is keen on making things that challenge human taste, she doesn't want to challenge herself.
So this medicine is unpleasant to eat, but it actually doesn’t have any weird taste. Xie Xiao has such an illusion entirely because the taste is so exciting.
"Would you like some water?" Luo Junyao sympathetically handed over a glass of warm water.
"Thank you." Xie Xiao was so happy that he took the water glass and drank it in one gulp without being rude.
"Can... have another drink?" Xie Yan turned around and realized that Qin Yao'er and Luo Junyao were not the only ones in the room. Xie Yan was sitting by the window not far away.
But Xie Yan was obviously indifferent to him. He was looking down at the chess game on the table, holding a chess piece in his hand and playing with it carelessly.
After drinking another glass of water, Xie Xiao felt that she could finally speak.
He stood up, bowed towards Xie Yan and Luo Jun and said, "Thank you very much, Your Majesty and Princess. Xie Xiao is rude and has caused trouble to you two."
Xie Yan finally looked up at him and asked calmly: "If Cui Zheyu refuses to accept you, do you plan to drink yourself to death on the street one day?"
Xie Xiao's expression changed, because his face was already ugly, and it couldn't be any worse now.
Qin Yao'er blinked, walked up to Luo Junyao and smiled winkingly at her. Luo Junyao twitched the corners of his lips, reached out and pinched her cheek, giving her a warning look.
Xie Yan said coldly: "Cui Zheyu is from the regent's palace, and her father has an old relationship with me. If she is unwilling to accept you, no one can force her. Do you understand?"
Xie Xiao whispered: "I didn't..."
Xie Yan said: "Then what are you doing now? Threatening Cui Zheyu or threatening Prince Ancheng?"
Xie Xiao was speechless. He really didn't mean to threaten anyone, but he was really depressed, so he gambled and drank with others on the street.
but……
Ask yourself, does he really have no such meaning deep down in his heart? Xie Xiao couldn't help but feel a little confused.
Xie Yan looked at him calmly and said calmly: "Xie Xiao, you have traveled abroad at a young age, and you are well-informed compared to Yong's powerful children. But... your life has been too smooth.
Why do you let Cui Zheyu accept you after leaving Prince Ancheng's palace? If you don't understand this, she will never truly treat you as an adult who can stand alongside her in this life."
Compared with young people of the same generation, Xie Xiao is already outstanding enough.
But compared with Cui Zheyu's experience, Xie Xiao seems too young and naive.
Enthusiasm alone is not enough to impress Cui Zheyu. If the two of them just fall in love, there is no problem, but if they want to talk about marriage, Cui Zheyu will never agree.
Xie Yan originally didn't intend to care about these things. He was not a warm-hearted person to begin with, so it was really difficult for him to interfere in other people's feelings.
But both Cui Zheyu and Cui Ziying are the people Xie Yan wants to take care of. Cui Zheyu is now considered one of Xie Yan's capable men, and Xie Yan does not want her to be involved in such young people's emotional affairs.
It made a big mess.
"I..." Xie Xiao was stunned and couldn't help but lower his head and think.
Xie Yan said coldly: "Everything you have now is based on the fact that you are the crown prince of An Cheng. If Prince An Cheng and his wife are still unwilling to accept Cui Zheyu, why do you think you can give her a stable life?"
Family? Do you rely on her to support you? Do you dare to take her to kowtow in front of Princess Ancheng now and say that you want to marry her? If the world ridicules and excludes her because of her status and age, can you shut everyone up?
What?"
Xie Xiao said: "I..."
"If you can't do that, just shut up." Xie Yan said indifferently, "No one is interested in how affectionate you are."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Luo Junyao walked to Xie Yan and sat down, looking at the red-eyed Prince Xie who was in a daze and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
What a sin, a good young man was beaten like this.
Quietly, he reached out and tugged on Xie Yan's sleeve, signaling him to stop.
Xie Yan originally had nothing else to say. He simply didn't think highly of Xie Xiao and Cui Zheyu at the moment. It wasn't that he had any objections to Xie Xiao.
Luo Junyao sighed softly and said: "Prince Xie, go back and rest early. Don't let Prince Ancheng and Princess worry."
Xie Xiao nodded silently and said hoarsely: "Thank you, Princess, I..." As soon as the words were spoken, Xie Xiao's eyes turned redder, as if tears were about to fall in the next moment.
Luo Junyao thought for a moment and said, "Why does the prince insist on marrying Boss Cui? I remember that Boss Cui didn't refuse to associate with you, right?"
Xie Xiao looked at Luo Junyao in surprise, as if he didn't expect that she would ask such an unorthodox question.
He likes her, wants to spend his life with her, wants to be responsible for her and give her an upright status. Isn't that what a responsible person should do?
He actually didn't want Cui Zheyu to work hard with him, he knew that this was what he should do.
He just hoped that Cui Zheyu could support him and give him some encouragement, even just a word.
Luo Junyao said: "But...have you asked Boss Cui what kind of life she wants to live? Does she want to be the crown prince?"
"I..." Xie Xiao frowned. If she really didn't want to become the Crown Princess, then... what would they do?
Xie Xiao instantly felt that this problem was more troublesome than his parents.
Luo Jun shook his head. Children cannot be taught.
"Go back and rest early. You drank too much today and it is not suitable to think about too profound issues." Luo Junyao said, "Yao'er, take Prince Xie out. Uh... tell Diying and let him take the crown prince back to Prince Ancheng's Mansion."
"Okay." Qin Yao'er responded crisply.
Luo Junyao gave her a warning look: Don't be weird!
Qin Yao'er blinked her eyes, her face looking innocent and cute.
The two of them had just walked out of the door when they heard Qin Yao'er's voice coming from outside the door, "Prince Xie, do you know anything about the Forgetting Pill?"
"..."
Luo Junyao looked back at Xie Yan in disbelief, "Is there really such a thing as the Forgettable Pill?" Isn't this a bit too mysterious?
Xie Yan said: "Amnesia and brain damage don't count?"
"...Forget it?" No wonder Xie Yan controls Qin Yao'er so strictly. This is a small disaster.
"Excuse me, Your Majesty and Princess." After a moment, the door of the wing was pushed open from the outside again, and Cui Zheyu walked in from the outside and said softly.
Luo Junyao leaned on Xie Yan's shoulder and said curiously: "Boss Cui, do you like Xie Xiao or not?"
Cui Zheyu smiled, thought for a while and said, "You like it? If you don't like it, why did I provoke him in the first place?"
Luo Junyao raised his eyebrows slightly, and Cui Zheyu sighed: "I didn't think so much at first, and I never thought he would be so persistent."
Which young man would want to marry a woman who he accidentally met outside and didn't even know her identity? Under normal circumstances, shouldn't they all default to a casual marriage?
Luo Jun shook his head and said: "I understand, we can gather and disperse as the occasion demands, right?"
"The princess is right." Cui Zheyu sighed softly and said: "It's not that I'm belittling myself, nor that I'm worried about the attitude of Prince Ancheng and the princess, but... I really don't have confidence that I can really live with him.
lifetime."
"Are you not confident in yourself or in him?" Luo Junyao asked.
Cui Zheyu didn't speak for a long while, and Luo Junyao waved his hand to indicate that she didn't have to force herself.
Luo Junyao said: "Actually, you don't have to feel guilty. Things like feelings can never be 100% fair. If you force yourself to take a path you don't want to take because of guilt, what will be left in the end may not be feelings, but resentment.
Already."
Cui Zheyu looked at her and smiled sweetly: "The princess is young, but she is more transparent than others when it comes to emotional matters."
Luo Junyao said: "It's not that I'm transparent. I just feel that you can never compromise emotionally."
Cui Zheyu nodded and said, "I will make it clear to him."
After saying that, he sighed softly, "It's really not good for some things to be delayed for a long time. They should have been solved long ago. Your Majesty, now that we understand most of the things in the capital, I want to go south. I guess the south also needs people now, right?"
Xie Yan frowned slightly and said, "You don't care about Cui Ziying anymore?"
Cui Zheyu smiled and said: "Zi Ying is an adult now. He has his own way to go, and I have my own way to go."
Xie Yan thought for a moment, then nodded and said: "Okay."
