The warm handkerchief gently wiped the sweat on her forehead, and when it touched the dark eyebrows, the girl's slender wrist was grabbed.
The man opened his eyes suddenly, and his fierce black eyes met a pair of gentle and watery eyes.
"My lord, are you awake?" Jiang Tang had a surprise smile on his face.
However, the man she looked at did not smile: "Why are you here?"
The smile on her face faded slightly, and her eyes were a little confused: "Slave, can't you be here?"
Xiao Yinhan closed his eyes and refused to look at her: "Go out."
With these words, the girl's face instantly turned pale, and a flash of hurt flashed in her eyes.
Even so, she suppressed her sadness, softly said "yes", then stood up and left.
Hearing the sound of leaving in his ears, Xiao Yinhan opened his eyes. Seeing the girl's slender figure leaving alone, he clenched his lowered right hand suddenly.
He closed his eyes and frowned, as if he was trying to suppress something.
【What happened to the male protagonist?】
As soon as I left the system, I couldn't help but ask: [Obviously, when I saw the host for the first time, he had a crush on him. Why did he chase the host away? 】
Jiang Tang touched the injury on his wrist lightly.
"Probably, he is struggling."
She looked into the distance with a cold smile, but her voice was very soft: "Isn't this what prey always does before it is caught?"
System: ...I don’t understand even more.
In the next two days, Jiang Tang did as the hero wished and never appeared again.
But who knows, when she doesn't go, someone is not as happy as he imagined.
"If she doesn't come, she really won't come, ha."
Hearing the man's sneer, Eunuch Liu didn't hear clearly: "Your Majesty, what did you say?"
"It's nothing, shut up and don't disturb my sleep."
Xiao Yinhan closed his eyes, and his already cold and handsome face became even more shocking.
Although Xiao Yinhan felt a little unhappy, he still sent out a lot of things every day.
Food, drink, clothes, supplies... everything was delivered to Jiang Tang's house, making other people jealous.
The servants talked among themselves among themselves, thinking that Jiang Tang had gained the favor of the prince, and they were afraid that it wouldn't be long before he flew up a branch and turned into a phoenix.
And this envy reached its peak when Xiao Yinhan asked Eunuch Liu to return the deed of betrayal to Jiang Tang——
"...The government has canceled her registration. From now on, Miss Tang is free and no longer has to work as a servant." Eunuch Liu said with a smile.
He is very good at talking to people and talking to ghosts.
However, who would have expected that Jiang Tang did not immediately accept the deed of betrayal, nor was he as excited as he imagined. He was even a little nervous and confused: "Your Majesty...are you going to drive me away?"
Eunuch Liu was stunned for a moment: "Of course not. As long as the girl doesn't leave, no one will drive you away. Your Majesty means that from now on, the girl will no longer be a servant of the mansion, and her food, clothing, housing and transportation will be the same as that of the master of the palace."
After hearing that he was not being driven away, Jiang Tang finally smiled: "Thank you, Your Majesty, and thank you, father-in-law."
A pair of eyes as bright as the stars.
"...She really said that?"
"Of course it's true, can this slave lie to you?" Eunuch Liu explained with a smile on his face: "Miss Tang thought that the prince was going to drive her away, her look... Tsk, even the slave made me feel bad when I saw it. She couldn't bear to leave.
The prince’s.”
The man's cold mouth finally revealed a smile: "She is quite sensible."
Naturally, Eunuch Liu could only cheer and say "yes".
Xiao Yinhan tapped his fingers: "I'll give her a copy of the blood swallows sent from the palace later and tell her... let her recuperate and don't faint easily."
When he said this, the man frowned unconsciously, not sure whether he was dissatisfied or distressed.
Eunuch Liu was surprised: "Again, another reward?"
Then she accidentally met the terrifying eyes of her own prince, and instantly changed her words: "Yes, she should be rewarded! She has helped the prince so much, and she cannot be rewarded enough."
When he knew that the man finally looked away, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
I just couldn't help but mutter in my heart: What the hell is this? You can't even say a few words, you're stingy!
Xiao Yinhan lay in bed for ten days. On the eleventh day, he finally went out regardless of everyone's advice.
Most of the people involved in Gao Qi's case have been captured by the Seventh Prince, but there are some things that only he can handle.
So before his wound healed, he was already busy.
Although those people were arrested, they refused to plead guilty. He was not afraid of trouble and went directly to the Criminal Department to interrogate them personally.
Just like that, he came back covered in blood every day.
Within a few days, all the confessions were submitted.
This vigorous and resolute attitude once again shocked the courtiers.
It's just that he acted with injury, and the poison was extremely strong. After a few days, his body still couldn't hold it anymore.
The most obvious thing is that the insomnia that Jiang Tang finally managed has relapsed.
He was busy running around during the day, but when he returned to his house at night, he couldn't sleep for a long time. His face became worse and worse, and his temper became worse.
Eunuch Liu saw it in his eyes and couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty is working so hard, why don't you let that girl come and press your button? At least have a good sleep first?"
However, this well-intentioned idea was rejected by the man: "No. Since I said I don't want her to serve me, I will never break my promise."
As he spoke, he looked at Eunuch Li with cold eyes: "What? Do you want me to break my promise?"
"Of course not," Eunuch Liu bowed his head and admitted his mistake: "I am just worried about the prince's health. I don't dare... I don't dare..."
"Okay, get out of here?"
Xiao Yinhan was already driving people away impatiently.
Eunuch Liu had no choice but to retreat.
But as soon as he left, the man couldn't help but press his eyebrows again, feeling really uncomfortable.
But what he decides will not be changed easily.
Xiao Yinhan suppressed his irritation and continued to read the mountains of official documents that had piled up in the past few days. He spent a long time looking at them.
When he finally reached his limit and tried to take a rest with his eyes closed, a familiar sweet fragrance suddenly spread through his nose.
He was stunned for a moment, thinking it was his illusion, and curled his lips in a self-deprecating way.
Then the next moment, a pair of familiar hands pressed the acupuncture points on his head, and he finally opened his eyes as if waking up from a dream.
"Why are you here?"
When he saw that familiar smiling face, he felt like he was in a dream.
But he soon became serious: "It was Liu Degui who asked you to come, right? How brave you are to fool me..."
"no."
Jiang Tang defended Eunuch Liu: "I came here on my own. I have recovered from my illness and will naturally come back to serve the prince."
She looked gentle and calm, as if she should be that way.
Xiao Yinhan's Adam's apple twitched slightly, then lowered his eyes: "Didn't I tell you that you don't have to serve me anymore?"
Jiang Tang started massaging him directly, his voice as sweet as ever: "But this slave will only serve the prince and will not do anything else."
