Ignoring Su Yan's accusation, Duan Yichen only fixed his gaze on Xiaoxiao, bloodthirsty and cold.
Xiaoxiao, with Wu Shui and Wu Shuang, sat elegantly in the hall, picked up the teacup, and took a sip. She didn't take his knife-like eyes seriously at all. She had already made the decision to come back.
Prepare to face this evil man again.
"That's enough," Duan Yichen's lazy voice was calm and confident.
Su Yan reluctantly suppressed her voice, looked at him pitifully, and whispered, "My lord, you want to make the decision for Yan'er!"
"Pa", Xiaoxiao put the tea cup on the table and looked at her with cold eyes, "Your Majesty, Xiaoxiao only came to the palace at the invitation of the prince, but my wife said something rude and even complained first.
Is this how the prince treats guests? In that case, why should Xiaoxiao make others feel uncomfortable here? "
Xiaoxiao stopped, turned around and looked at him calmly, with a smile, "Your Majesty, although Xiaoxiao is a female, she still has some backbone."
The dark eyes were a little careless, but there was a hint of sharp edge, "What do you want?"
She raised her hand lightly and pointed at Su Yan, "Either she leaves, or Xiaoxiao leaves."
Duan Yi lowered his eyes and raised the corners of his mouth thoughtfully.
"What?!" Su Yan seemed to have heard a big joke and sarcastically said loudly, "Who do you think you are? How dare you negotiate terms with the prince like this? This lady is..."
"Butler," Duan Yichen waved lazily.
Uncle Liu understood and stepped forward, "Madam, please."
"No!" Su Yan screamed in disbelief, "Your Majesty! How can you listen to this woman? Your Majesty! Don't be fooled by her! Your Majesty—"
Duan Yichen's face turned cold, "I paid a sum of money from the accounting room to send her out of the house."
"Yes," Uncle Liu waved, and immediately came up to the two servants, picked up Su Yan and walked out.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Yan'er has made a mistake. Your Majesty, please don't drive Yan'er away. Your Majesty..." Su Yan's cry echoed in the corridor.
Looking at the veiled woman opposite is like looking at a prey waiting to be slaughtered, cruel, cold, and determined to win.
"Miss Xiaoxiao, are you still satisfied?"
Xiaoxiao lowered her eyes, concealed the sneer on her lips, and blinked innocently, "I just want the prince to send the wife back to her room, but I don't want the prince to divorce her."
"Oh?" Duan Yichen half-pursed his cold thin lips and raised the corners of his mouth unruly.
Xiaoxiao Yanran got down and said, "Xiaoxiao is tired and wants to go down and rest."
Whether intentionally or not, Xiaoxiao was arranged to the previous room.
The furnishings in the room were exactly the same as when she left, and even the air was filled with her favorite rose scent. The quilt seemed to have been sunburned and soft, and there were some of her favorite snacks on the table.
Looking around, her eyes felt a little moist. Xiaoxiao sat on the bed and looked at the petals flying by the window. Since she remembered so many of her preferences, why did she forget the things she loved and cared about the most?
"Girl," Wu Shui walked in with a pot of hot tea and put it on the table, he asked puzzledly, "Why do you want to drive that woman out of the house? Wouldn't this attract too much attention and make enemies prematurely?
"
"Su Yan is just cannon fodder in this palace. Sooner or later she will be a victim of the fights between women." Xiaoxiao said jokingly, "She should thank me. At least, I saved her life." Then she said seriously,
"As the boss of Yiren Lefang, it is difficult for me not to keep a high profile. Since Duan Yichen can let me into the house even after recognizing me, he will definitely keep me! Why don't I take this opportunity and use Su Yan to tell everyone
Announce my existence in a high profile? Because my ultimate goal is to attract Duan Yunyan’s attention!"
Her eyes turned cold and her eyes drifted into the distance, "I want these two brothers to know that not just anyone can be slaughtered by them!"
Later in the evening, the housekeeper came over to invite me, "Miss Xiaoxiao, the prince invites you."
Wu Shui smiled and replied, "Thank you, housekeeper, my girl will be here soon."
Facing the person in the bronze mirror, Xiaoxiao took off the veil on her face and said, "Wushuang, please help me dress up. I want to impress everyone."
"no problem."
When Xiaoxiao appeared in the flower hall, everyone in the room widened their eyes in shock, but Duan Yichen was the only one who was unfazed and looked straight at her with unreadable eyes.
Wearing a gouache dress, she looks elegant and charming. Her long hair is pulled into a flying cloud bun. Her bright face, although not extremely beautiful, has a special magic that sucks the soul. Every frown and smile is charming, and she shows her true face.
The moment he showed her face, his eyes slightly raised, and his sharp gaze seemed to pierce through all her disguises.
"Are you... Mo Ying?"
Saihan, who was sitting next to him, was the first to speak out.
A suspicious look flashed across Guan Li's face, and he lowered his eyes to prevent his thoughts from being revealed.
"See you, Princess," Xiaoxiao smiled and said generously, "This little girl, Lou Xiaoxiao, is the boss of Yiren Lefang. I'm afraid the Princess has recognized the wrong person."
Before Saihan could speak again, Duan Yichen ordered, "Give me a seat."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Xiaoxiao was not polite and sat down directly.
Duan Yichen drove away Su Yan for Xiaoxiao. Guan Li and Saihan had already heard about it. They also guessed his intention of keeping Xiaoxiao. They were worried that there would be another person in the palace to compete with them for favor.
No one would be happy with a woman. As for why he found a woman who was so similar to Lin Moying, I'm afraid the answer already lies in everyone's mind.
The dinner was extremely dull. Only Xiaoxiao had a good appetite and was asked to add half a bowl of rice. She began to fully understand why happiness must be based on the pain of others.
"Xiaoxiao, you have just entered the palace, so you are not familiar with it. How about I show you around the palace?"
Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Thank you so much, Your Majesty."
Watching the two people leave, Guan Li glanced at Saihan, who had frowned for a long time, and said calmly, "Princess, this owner of Yiren Lefang will become the princess's biggest threat."
Saihan turned his head, his extremely beautiful face revealed a hint of contempt, "Guan Li, do you know why I hate you?"
Guan Li raised his eyes, "I would like to hear the details."
"You are such an insidious and cunning woman. You only want to kill someone with a borrowed knife and reap the benefits. But don't forget, whether you use a knife or your brain, as long as you kill someone, your hands will be stained with blood. No matter how noble you pretend to be, no matter how noble you are.
It's useless to fight in this world!" Saihan curled his lips and stood up, "Unfortunately, this princess likes this Xiaoxiao. If you can't sit still, go fight her yourself. But no matter how hard you fight,
She is just a concubine, and she will never climb over me in this life." He smiled contemptuously and left with Abi.
Guan Li lowered his eyes and sneered, "Will she just be a concubine?"
