Watching the snowflakes falling in confusion, her heart became confused.
"What should I do? What should I do? Eunuch Dequan is Brother Ye's personal eunuch. How could he sneak into Ziyun Palace and eavesdrop on me for no reason? Did Brother Ye ask him to do that? What if he told Brother Ye
My bad words, what should I do if Brother Ye hates me?"
Just when she was in a state of panic, a quiet voice came from behind her - "If you want Brother Wang to fall in love with you, I can help you."
When she heard the sudden sound, Princess Yang Xi was so frightened that she almost went weak: "Who?!"
She turned around suddenly to see who was coming?
I never expected that the person coming would be Ao Chenxiao!
Although she rarely saw the unpopular Highness of Tenglong Kingdom, she had heard a lot about his unpopularity.
She would feel unlucky when seeing such a cursed person!
"What are you doing here?!" Princess Yang Xi said with arrogance and rejection, looking at Ao Chenxiao who suddenly appeared in front of her with unkind eyes.
She disdained Ao Chenxiao's aloofness and aloofness. He was obviously just a deported sinner, but he acted so cold and arrogant in front of her, a princess, that it made her feel very uncomfortable.
Regarding her contempt, Ao Chenxiao just took it lightly. He looked at her deeply with his quiet eyes, and said as if he could penetrate her heart: "Didn't the princess always want the prince to leave Miss Ke'er?
,I can help you."
Princess Yang Xi: "What?! You want to help me? What... are you worried about? What are your intentions in helping me?"
In response to her question, the corners of Ao Chenxiao's lips suddenly curved in a strange way. He ignored her sharp question and said instead: "If I'm not wrong, you like my brother Wang very much, right? Let me...
It is to give you an opportunity, and it is also an opportunity for the marriage between the two countries."
Marriage?!
Princess Yang Xi was immediately attracted by this word.
The hostility towards him in her heart was covered up by greed. She knew that His Highness, who was not popular in Tenglong Kingdom, had a pivotal position in Brother Ye's mind. Perhaps, she could use him as a chess piece.
A glimmer of hope came into her eyes, and she asked cautiously: "What do you mean?"
The tone of voice has softened and is no longer as sharp as before.
Ao Chenxiao's eyes flashed like a brilliant light, which disappeared in a blink of an eye.
Then, he looked at her thoughtfully, as if he was evaluating something?
If he can get Princess Yang Xi to obey him in the future, it may be more helpful to his future plans, but if this fails, it may provoke a war between the two countries, which is inconsistent with his plan.
It's contradictory.
Seeing that he suddenly stopped talking and just looked at her as if he was weighing her, Princess Yang Xi felt uncomfortable.
He looked like she didn't deserve his help?!
Her squeamishness made her sneer and sarcastically said: "Could it be that you have no choice at all and are just pretending in front of this princess to get benefits... ugh!"
Princess Yang Xi wanted to scorn him severely, but she was startled when Ao Chenxiao suddenly stretched out his hand in front of her.
She instinctively took a step back and looked at the pill in Ao Chenxiao's hand that was emitting a strange green light with some surprise. The green light that shone out seemed to be able to invade people's hearts, making people feel a strange feeling in their hearts just looking at it.
A sense of coolness.
No need to speculate too much, this pill looks like it is not a good thing!
"What is this?" She stared at him warily, ready for any counterattack or escape.
Ao Chenxiao looked at her retreating expression coldly, and explained to her in a somewhat cryptic manner: "This is the love elixir I cultivated. As long as you drip it with your blood and dye it, then let the person you admire eat it."
, it will help you get the love you want."
"Love Pill? Is this...really useful?"
Yang Xi was greedy for the emotions in her heart, and she came closer unconsciously. Looking at the elixir that exuded a strange luster, she couldn't resist the temptation, even though the elixir made her feel frightened just by looking at it.
feel.
"If it doesn't work, I'm willing to sacrifice my life to make amends." Ao Chenxiao pursed his thin lips lukewarmly, and a hint of coldness suddenly appeared on his handsome face.
"But...but why do you want to help me?" She still couldn't feel at ease and asked cautiously.
"Because everyone disagrees with Miss Ke'er being with Brother Wang, and for Tenglong and Fulong Kingdoms, you are the most suitable woman to be with Brother Wang."
Listening to his explanation, Princess Yang Xi finally removed her last line of defense.
"You are absolutely right! I am Brother Ye's best partner!" She took the love elixir from his hand with trembling hands excitedly. Thinking that her dream could finally come true, her face slowly filled with anticipation and hope.
A longing smile.
…
The night gradually fell, and the palace seemed very quiet in the night. As the moonlight moved quietly, strands of brilliance passed over the falling snowflakes, and the white snow light was faint, giving the night a quiet romance.
The Imperial Study Room, the huge hall is brilliant and spacious. The bright candlelight is swaying in this magnificent hall. The candlelights illuminate every corner one by one. The warm light of the candlelight envelopes the Imperial Study Room, matching the warmth of the furnace.
The smoke warms this quiet place together.
In the quiet study room, occasionally you can hear the sound of turning books, and then it becomes quiet again, so quiet that you can fall into it unconsciously.
In front of the desk that exuded the faint scent of sandalwood, Ao Chenye was concentrating on reviewing the memorial.
After a while, there was a sudden knock on the door: "Knock, knock, knock!"
Ao Chenye said without raising his head: "Come in."
The door was pushed open and light footsteps sounded.
As soon as he heard these footsteps, he knew that the person coming was a woman.
Could it be that the little cutie is sleepless without him at night?
Ao Chenye's eyebrows twitched slightly, and the corners of his lips raised unconsciously.
He put down the memorial and raised his head, but was disappointed to see that the person coming was not the person he expected, but Sister Yang Xi, who had a very tense relationship with him a few days ago.
Sighing helplessly, he watched silently as Yang Xi came forward with a bowl of sugar water.
Although I had an unpleasant quarrel with her before, I still couldn't reject her in my heart. After all, I have treated her as a relative for so many years.
After the death of his father and queen, apart from Brother Wang, he was closest to Aunt Mei, who had brought him up since childhood. This princess who often traveled to Tenglong Kingdom was Aunt Mei's only relative, and she was also the niece whom Aunt Mei loved like her own daughter. He
He also treats her as his own sister. Many times, he cannot really criticize her for many things.
If it weren't for the fact that she used national affairs as a bargaining chip to act coquettishly, he wouldn't have spoken so harshly to her.
Regarding his silence, Yang Xi felt very nervous and her steps seemed a little chaotic.
Looking at Brother Ye's slight expression, he probably doesn't know what happened in Ziyun Palace today. God help me!
Yang Xi secretly felt lucky in her heart. Originally, she had a narrow escape to accept the crime, but now she was fine. Brother Ye was probably just still angry about their previous dispute.
In this case, it shouldn't be difficult for Brother Ye to forgive her.
With a happy mood, she finally walked up to him.
Facing his silence and not refusing her approach, she took a deep breath to relieve the tension and guilt inside her, and then pretended to speak to him coquettishly like she had done before when she begged for mercy after doing something wrong - "Brother Ye, are you still here?"
Are you angry with me? I'm sorry. I know it was my fault. I apologize to you and you will forgive me, okay? You've ignored me these past few days and I'm so sad. I know I was too willful. I
I really know that I was wrong, Brother Ye, can you forgive me one more time?"
At the end of the sentence, she pretended to be pitiful and sobbed slightly, as if she was going to cry if he didn't forgive her.
Seeing her holding the tray tightly with a pleading look on her face, Ao Chenye pursed his lips, moved his eyes from the tray in her hand up to her face, and looked into her eyes seriously.
"Do you really realize your mistake?"
"Really!" Yang Xi sobbed and nodded solemnly, with serious assurance in her eyes, hoping this would convince him.
"So... tell me, did you send someone to kidnap Ke'er?" Regarding this matter, he hoped that she would confess on her own.
Yang Xi was stunned, not expecting that he would still ask about this matter.
Flustered to avoid his majestic gaze, she bit her lip gently, weighing in her mind, what should she do? Should she admit it?
She really doesn't want to admit it!
However, looking at Brother Ye's expression, it seems that she is definitely the one who did it, but there is just a lack of evidence to prove her. If she admits it, how will Brother Ye treat her, and will Bai Keer seek revenge from her?
No, no! She will never let Bai Keer be arrogant to her!
Suddenly, out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of the sugar water on the tray in her hand, and her eyes flashed. If Brother Ye drinks this bowl of sugar water, eats the love pill and falls in love with her, then what else does she have to fear?
Her mind changed, and she suddenly began to sob softly.
"Woooooooo..."
Ao Chenye frowned: "Yang Xi! Don't escape like this!"
His stern tone silenced her cries. She looked up at him pitifully and said sadly: "Brother Ye, I was really wrong. I will tell you everything you want to know. I will
Yes, but you must be very tired after reading the memorial for so long. This is the lotus seed soup I made myself. You can eat it while it's hot, okay? I'll tell you about it while you eat."
She put the tray down, picked up the lotus seed soup and handed it to him, looking at him pleadingly with tearful eyes.
Such a pitiful expression is just like the pitiful look when she was afraid of being scolded by Aunt Mei every time she did something wrong as a child, so she came to seek his protection.
Memories of the past suddenly rushed into his mind. The memories of his childhood and the innocent joy of childhood made his hard heart flow into a warm stream of nostalgia.
