Chapter 17: The Order of the Tiger Seduces the Two Monarchs to Compete
_!~;|i^
The two faced each other and drank half a cup of tea. Xiao Liuyue suddenly said: "Junior sister, didn't you never forget Zhuo Qingyi's Tiger Order at the martial arts conference? At that time, you had a regretful expression on your face. You were sad that you couldn't see the Tiger Order. Sigh. Now, do you still want to see Hu Ling?"
Tiger order...
Xue Xichen's heart skipped a beat. Xiao Liuyue suddenly took the initiative to bring up this topic. There must be his intention. Moreover, the purpose was by no means simple. She figured it out in her heart. How should she answer Xiao Liuyue's question in order to hide her true feelings? What's the purpose?
"Mr. Xiao, the tiger order you are talking about is something similar to a tiger talisman."
Xiao Liuyue smiled. It seemed that Xue Xichen still didn't want to tell the truth to him. Whatever, she didn't want to. He had his own way to force her to do so. He knew his junior sister quite well.
"Junior sister, if you want to see Hu Ling, you might as well come to my house tonight. You know, that day at the martial arts conference, Zhuo Qingyi confessed before his death... I was the only one with him at that time." Xiao Liuyue's lips showed a hint of slyness.
Xue Xichen raised her eyebrows, suddenly realizing.
Indeed, it was true. When Zhuo Qingyi died, only Xiao Liuyue was closest to him. Zhuo Qingyi's final confession... maybe only Xiao Liuyue knew about it. In addition, Xiao Liuyue was Zhuo Qingyi's biological child. Son. So the whereabouts of Hu Ling...
Self-explanatory.
Although she was shocked in her heart, she showed a lack of interest in her face. Xue Xichen stood up and walked slowly to the fence. She seemed to be enjoying the surrounding scenery leisurely, but in fact, she was in a state of confusion inside. She was thinking about Xiao Liuyue's words just now.
Believe it or not.
"Junior sister."
Xiao Liuyue suddenly approached Xue Xichen. It was almost a subconscious reaction of the body. Xue Xichen immediately put on a defensive posture and raised his palm to hit Xiao Liuyue's forehead. However, Xiao Liuyue caught it firmly with his big palm. Xiao Liuyue said towards Xue Xichen showed a charming smile. He clamped Xue Xichen's big palm firmly. He leaned forward and got close to Xue Xichen's cheek. His warm breath was between the wings of his nose. As expected, he saw Xue Xichen frowning. His body subconsciously Xiao Liuyue smiled and said, "Junior sister still remembers the promise she made to senior brother that day."
Promise. What bullshit promise.
The only thing Xue Xichen was thinking about now was how to escape Xiao Liuyue's restraint.
When it comes to martial arts, she is on par with Xiao Liuyue. However, when it comes to using poison and hidden weapons, she is far behind Xiao Liuyue.
Perhaps no one would have guessed that Xiao Liuyue, who was as gentle and handsome as a handsome young man, could also use low-class methods. And he was very good at it. Who knows that Xiao Liuyue is the descendant of Tianshan boy.
I was too preoccupied with thinking and focused all my attention on Xiao Liuyue. I didn't notice several bright figures that could not be ignored appeared under the pavilion at some unknown time.
"Liuyue. Why are you here? The Emperor has been waiting for you for a long time."
Bai Biluo's seemingly casual question made Xue Xichen suddenly wake up. She quickly turned around and looked around. She saw Feng Qingge and Bai Dieyu appearing under the Bajiao Pavilion at some unknown time. Bai Biluo and Mu Qing were also accompanied by her. No.
Seeing Feng Qingge, a look of panic flashed across Xue Xichen's eyes. She didn't know if Feng Qingge had heard the conversation she had just had with Xiao Liuyue.
However, seeing Feng Qingge Yun Danfengqing's unmoving expression and her indifferent attitude, Xue Xichen couldn't figure out Feng Qingge's thoughts for a moment.
"It turns out the Queen is here too."
Bai Biluo nodded to greet Xue Xichen. Bai Dieyu's mocking words came from beside her. "As the head of the Sixth Palace, you are flirting with other men in public. The description is ambiguous. It is simply shameless."
Xue Xichen's brows twitched slightly. She suddenly understood Xiao Liuyue's intention of suddenly approaching her just now.
Xiao Liuyue must have discovered that Feng Qingge was walking towards her and deliberately approached her, causing Feng Qingge to misunderstand the relationship between her and Xiao Liuyue and driving a wedge between her and Feng Qingge.
Senior brother, you have such deep intentions.
Explanation is a cover-up. No matter what explanation she gave, it would appear to be a cover-up in the eyes of outsiders. She simply didn't waste her words.
Xue Xichen gently patted the dust on her clothes. She stood up straight and proudly faced Bai Dieyu's mocking gaze. The smile on her face did not change. She looked calm and clear. "What do you mean by Sister Dieyu? Could it be that you are here?" Are you insinuating that I am disloyal to the emperor?"
"Die Jade."
Bai Biluo scolded lightly and glared at Bai Dieyu with a warning look.
"snort."
Bai Dieyu folded her hands around her chest and shook her cheeks away in anger. She ignored Bai Biluo.
Bai Biluo knew his sister's stubborn temper. He also knew that his sister and the queen had never gotten along. He couldn't help but sigh. Although he had always looked down on the woman Xue Meitong, he didn't think she would cause any big disturbance. However, Feng Bi Qing suddenly reminded him to keep an eye on Baidieyu and not let her have any conflict with Xue Meitong. This made Bai Biluo extremely confused. Although Xue Meitong is the queen, it is just a false name. She has no power and no power. With no big family support behind him, how could Xue Meitong compete with Bai Dieyu? However, Feng Biqing warned her again and again. He could only do it. He cupped his hands and said to Xue Xichen: "My sister-in-law said something reckless. Don't blame me, Queen."
"It's okay." Xue Xichen smiled lightly, with an elegant and noble attitude. "I like Sister Dieyu's true character of speaking out, daring to love and hate."
Bai Biluo cupped her hands and made a bow. "Thank you, Queen."
Xue Xichen nodded and smiled at Xiao Liuyue. She said sincerely: "Just now, I almost fell down the railing. Thank you so much, Mr. Xiao, for saving me. I haven't thanked Mr. Xiao enough."
Her words were undoubtedly explaining why she was so close to Xiao Liuyue.
Xiao Liuyue nodded with a smile. It seemed that he had expected that Xue Xichen would find excuses. He said to Xue Xichen: "The Queen is polite. This is what a minister should do."
"Oh, it's all my fault. I disturbed Mr. Xiao's precious time." Before Xiao Liuyue could speak, Xue Xichen turned to Feng Qingge and said, "Your Majesty, I forgive you. I have no intention of wasting Mr. Xiao's time." .Please don’t blame Mr. Xiao, Your Majesty.”
"Won't."
Feng Qingge's eyes swept across Xiao Liuyue and Xue Xichen. It was so dark and deep that it was impossible to fathom what he was thinking at the moment.
As for Xue Xichen, she didn't want to know what Feng Qingge was thinking at this moment. She walked gracefully past Xiao Liuyue, walked down the Octagonal Pavilion step by step, walked towards Feng Qingge, and bowed. "I have met the emperor."
Feng Qingge glanced at Xue Xichen, who was paying homage. Then she looked at Xiao Liuyue, who was still on the pavilion. She suddenly asked, "The queen was playing the piano just now."
Xue Xichen was stunned. She did not expect that Feng Qingge would suddenly ask this question. She answered honestly: "Returning to the emperor, it was indeed my concubine who was playing the piano just now."
On the pavilion, Xiao Liuyue said respectfully: "Liuyue came here after hearing the sound of the piano. I was slightly delayed. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
