Chapter 294 Showing weakness is a woman’s best weapon
The girl on the bed frowned, breathing heavily, her white forehead covered with a thin layer of sweat, her pink lips moving, as if she was shouting something in a low voice.
As soon as Xiao Yinhan walked in, he saw Jiang Tang's fragile and pitiful appearance. He subconsciously quickened his pace and walked to the bed, holding her hand to wake her up: "Tangtang! Wake up! Wake up!"
There was panic hidden in his eyes that he didn't even notice.
Accompanied by a short, panicked "No!"
The girl on the bed finally opened her panicked and weak eyes.
When she saw who was standing in front of her, she almost immediately threw herself into his arms.
He said aggrievedly in a hoarse, crying voice: "Your Majesty, I thought I would never see you again."
The delicate body trembled gently in the man's arms, like a frightened little animal seeking comfort from its owner.
Xiao Yinhan subconsciously tightened his arms and said in a rare gentle tone: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Jiang Tang buried his tear-stained face into the man's neck, and his voice was muffled and nasal: "I dreamed that the prince no longer wanted me."
Xiao Yinhan almost subconsciously retorted: "Dream!"
The palm that fell on the girl's smooth hair was slightly firm, and she said in a deep voice: "It's just a dream, don't be afraid."
After a long time, a small voice came from my arms: "Yes."
But even so, the girl's arms holding his neck did not loosen, but tightened even more.
Xiao Yinhan didn't speak, he just held her quietly and let her calm down slowly.
After a long time, the little girl seemed to finally break free from the nightmare. She moved slightly and broke away from his arms.
Sensing the movement, Xiao Yinhan loosened his hand slightly.
The girl looked up from his arms, revealing a pitiful snow-white face with tear stains. Even the messy hair stuck to her face made her look weak and pitiful.
She just looked at him with tears in her eyes, her eyes full of attachment.
Xiao Yinhan's originally hard heart softened inexplicably.
"What's wrong? What did you dream about that scared you like this?"
The gentle way he spoke was completely unlike him.
Hearing his question, Jiang Tang subconsciously looked away, as if he didn't want to remember: "I forgot..."
Jade fingers subconsciously tugged at the fabric under the tight fit. The panic from just now still remained on the snow-white face, and he stammered: "A nightmare, I have forgotten..."
Xiao Yinhan narrowed his eyes slightly and suddenly stood up.
However, as soon as he moved, the girl hugged him in panic and begged: "My lord, please don't leave!"
However, when she met the man's gaze, she seemed to realize what she had said, and the hand that was originally holding him loosened her grip a little.
"I'm fine. If the prince has something to do, please leave first."
She seemed to want to smile at him, but she couldn't. She looked at him pitifully, making him feel that if he really left, she would cry.
No matter what happens, the little girl will only look at him with a smile, showing such a distressing look for the first time.
Xiao Yinhan felt very uncomfortable, but even so, he raised his hand and touched the little girl's head and said to her: "I'm going out."
As soon as he finished speaking, a trace of disappointment appeared in Jiang Tang's eyes.
But she still nodded obediently without holding back.
Xiao Yinhan clenched his fists, turned around and left.
As soon as he turned around, his face had changed, and his aura was astonishingly cold.
When Eunuch Liu who came to say hello suddenly saw it, he felt a chill in his chest and lowered his head subconsciously.
Good guy, who provoked him again?
It was obvious that he had not seen the prince look like he was about to kill someone for a long time.
Anyway, no matter who it is, it will definitely be unlucky.
After listening to Xiao Yinhan's questions, Eunuch Liu became more determined in his thoughts.
"This... I don't know much about this. Why don't we call in the servants? They should know better." Eunuch Liu tentatively spoke.
Xiao Yinhan nodded, agreeing.
Soon, Chun Xing was found.
After hearing the prince's question, she was confused for a moment.
Master Tang, what's wrong these days?
Nothing is wrong.
The master is still so gentle and kind, and he is doing well every day.
Chun Xing thought in her heart.
But the prince's expression and Eunuch Liu's nervous attitude told her that she absolutely couldn't answer like this.
She lowered her head and thought more seriously.
After thinking about it, she really thought of something that was unlikely, but seemed to be somewhat related.
Xiao Yinhan's eyes were as sharp as an eagle: "Tell me, what did you think of!"
Chun Xing trembled and said, "It's just that... the young master wanted to go to Lingyin Temple, and Master Tang asked the slave to give him some money. Then..."
Chun Xing thought about it and talked about the relevant situation.
The more she spoke, the darker the face of the man in front of her became.
After hearing everything, Xiao Yinhan only had one name left in his mind - Shen Yihuan, it's her again!
Eunuch Liu subconsciously raised his head. The prince's voice sounded scary.
Xiao Yinhan didn't care that his poor old slave was frightened. After finding the answer he wanted, he went back: "Go and find the doctor."
"Yes, I will make arrangements immediately."
Seeing the man leaving, Eunuch Liu breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at Chun Xing: "What's wrong with Master Tang? Are you sick again?"
Chun Xing looked at him blankly: I don't know.
And the man who had just scared the servants with just his face outside seemed to be a different person as soon as he stepped into the room.
The cold temperament on his body became calm and natural, as if the threatening person with a black face just now had nothing to do with him.
Jiang Tang was sitting on the edge of the bed in a daze. Hearing the movement behind him, he slowly turned around.
After seeing who it was, a pair of confused eyes suddenly lit up: "Your Majesty."
Xiao Yinhan walked to her: "What are you doing?"
But she only looked at him: "I'm thinking about the prince..."
One sentence made the man's already calm heart begin to beat uncontrollably.
"When are you coming back."
Then she finished the second half of the sentence, but the man was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but laugh.
"come over."
He just opened his arms, and the girl immediately leaned into his arms, leaning her white face against his chest, as obediently as a cat.
"Your Majesty."
She suddenly called him.
"Um?"
However, Xiao Yinhan responded, but she didn't speak. She just pulled her fingers on his sleeve a little tighter, as if she was afraid that he would leave again.
Although Xiao Yinhan's face was calm as usual, Shen Yihuan had already made a serious mark in his heart.
Throughout the afternoon, Jiang Tang became very clingy. Even at night, she would actively shrink into the man's arms and not allow him to leave.
Xiao Yinhan didn't refuse at all and agreed to everything.
Just like that, the little girl finally fell asleep in his arms.
-
The next morning, he was awakened by a small sobbing sound beside him.
When he opened his eyes, he realized that the girl who was originally held in his arms ran into the bed at some point and curled up into a ball.
I don’t know what she was dreaming about, she was crying even in her sleep.
Xiao Yinhan stretched out his hand and took the person into his arms.
He looked at the pitiful face in front of him, stretched out his hand to gently wipe away her tears, but his eyes were cold and scary:
"Don't be afraid, I will seek justice for you."
This sentence makes people's scalp numb.
At the same time, a girl who was also sleeping was suffering from the cold because she accidentally kicked off the quilt in the morning and slept very uneasily.
-
By the time Jiang Tang woke up, Xiao Yinhan had already left for the morning court.
"Why don't you ask me to get up and serve the prince?"
"The prince told me not to disturb the master and let him have a good rest." Chun Xing whispered.
The other maids on the side were equally cautious, fearing that they might offend their master by accident.
Jiang Tang said nothing, with his head slightly lowered, his long hair flowing like a waterfall flowing behind him, and he still looked that weak and pitiful look.
It's just that this "poor" master in the eyes of everyone is thinking in his heart: Let's see how far 64's so-called favor can take him.
The maid who was supporting her dressing up was about to ask: Master, is this okay?
But when he saw the cold and cold smile of the girl in the mirror, he subconsciously closed his mouth.
I always feel that Master Tang today is different from usual, and I can't help but feel chills running down my back.
-
In the court hall, the Duke of Zhen Guo stood in his position and fished in the water, with a secret smile on his face.
When no one was paying attention, he looked up again at the empty place in front of him, couldn't help but smile again, and then lowered his head.
His second brother came back and was favored by the emperor again. He was allowed to have a good rest these days and did not have to go to court.
The return of his younger brother really made him take advantage of it.
Colleagues who had been alienated from them began to come to visit one by one.
Of course Duke Zhen Guo knew what they wanted, but he didn't mind either.
His good second brother is his lucky star.
He couldn't help but start imagining that when the banquet was held, he would show those who looked down on him how much he and his second brother were brothers and sisters, and how much the second brother respected him as his elder brother.
At that time, let’s see if they still dare to be the same as before.
It's just that the second brother didn't want to hold a banquet, so he went to the temple to avoid others.
But it doesn't matter, the post has been sent out, and when the time comes, he can go and beg, and he will always come back. He can't embarrass his big brother.
The Duke of Zhen Guo thought too much and unknowingly announced his withdrawal from the court.
Hearing the eunuch's voice, he bowed as expected, and then left with the other ministers.
"Mr. Zhenguo, please..."
Suddenly a familiar male voice came to my ears.
When Duke Zhen Guo heard the voice, he looked up and recognized it was General Xuanwu who had offered to invite him for a drink last time.
He quickly put on a warm smile and walked forward: "General Tong, why are you..."
Then the next moment, he noticed that the other party's expression changed. Before he could speak, he lowered his head and said, "I still have something to do. I'll talk to you next time, Lord Zhen Guo."
After saying this, he turned around and left in a hurry without waiting for the Duke Zhen's reaction.
The Duke of Zhen Guo was stunned for a moment. Before he could realize what was going on, he found that the people around him had their heads lowered, and they were all walking around him as if they were avoiding the god of plague.
It's like... there's a ghost behind him.
This thought made his heart thump, and he suddenly didn't dare to look back.
But even so, he still forced himself to look back, it was impossible...
"Ah, King Rong!"
Sure enough, when he turned around, he was faced with a handsome face that everyone feared.
I don’t know if it would be okay if I moved away at this time and pretended that I didn’t see it.
Just when the Duke of Zhen was in a state of panic, the man refused to let him go.
"Mr. Zhen Guo, you have really raised a good daughter."
The sinister and terrifying words made the ministers who were about to leave subconsciously stop and look over curiously.
The daughter of Duke Zhen...is she provoking this big devil again?
Facing everyone's curious eyes, Duke Zhen Guo was even more confused. He had never heard that his daughter had offended King Rong again.
With a hint of luck: "My lord, have you found the wrong person?"
Xiao Yin laughed coldly, and the extremely mocking look in his eyes made him want to swallow the question he just asked.
"What happened?"
"What happened, you ask me?" King Rong always used his killer move when he opened his mouth, and threatened with an unceremonious poisonous tongue:
"I'm just here to remind you that there is a price to pay for being arrogant."
Don't you think the word "arrogant" is a bit funny coming out of your mouth?
The ministers nearby thought so, but no one dared to start.
Only the Duke of Zhen, who was facing him, felt fear.
Threat! This is a naked threat!
But he only dared to say it from the bottom of his heart, but he didn't know how to reply.
If before he was proud that his brother was favored by the emperor because he did not go to court, now the Duke of Zhenguo just wants to beg the emperor to take back this preference!
The fifth prince, who also left late, happened to see this scene and squinted his eyes slightly.
It seems that we need to find out what Shen Yihuan did to offend Xiao Yinhan...
After Xiao Yinhan threatened everyone, he left. The Duke of Zhen who was left behind was stunned for a while and finally came to his senses.
This time, he ignored his colleagues who gathered around him to inquire about the news, and hurried out:
"Go back quickly! Inform the eldest lady and ask her to find his second uncle!"
No matter what, with his younger brother here, no matter how crazy King Rong is, he still has to give him some face...right?
With such a mood, Duke Zhen suddenly felt that the banquet did not seem so delicious anymore.
Okay, why are you offending the God of Plague?
Angry at him! -
In fact, Duke Zhenguo guessed right, Xiao Yinhan deliberately made him angry.s
In other words, it was deliberately tormenting him.
With just one sentence, he frightened the governor of the town who was originally in a happy mood to prepare for the banquet.
But he didn't plan to deal with Shen Yihuan so soon.
She had to deal with it, otherwise she would not have a long memory, but he was willing to give General Zhenbei a face and wait until his family's banquet was over before taking action.
Xiao Yinhan originally only wanted to take Jiang Tang to Baihua Valley alone, but with Nangong Jiayue, it was difficult to leave him alone. Before he could think of how to solve the problem, he learned that she was going to attend the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion banquet.
If the relationship is good, the problem will be solved easily.
On the way back to his residence, he sent someone to Yu Guogong's residence to notify Yu Yuanjia and tell him that the time had been set.

In Prince Rong's Mansion, Jiang Tang was reading the account book. Suddenly, a maid hurriedly ran over, holding a book of flowers in her hand, and said to her with a smile:
"Master, Eunuch Liu said that the prince wants to plant flowers and asked you if there is anything you particularly like. You can come and choose."
Jiang Tang:?
After knowing the truth, Tangtang: So, he wants to plagiarize?
A certain prince: Although I am not romantic, I can copy it.
