"Yes, you are quite a bit behind." Su Ranhua smiled, "King Bei is willing to stand up for Princess Wan, and he is also Princess Wan's royal brother. You are worse than him in this regard."
"Oh?" Ximen Yi raised his eyebrows, "Then what should I say about the fourth brother?"
"Men need to be tempered, and women need to be protected." Su Ran expressed his views in a light and calm style.
In this unclear situation, it is better not to show enthusiasm for Ximen Yi, an "outsider". After all, she is the Princess of the North, and it is her duty to say good things for Ximen Hao, and she will not fall into the ears of interested people, but if she says Ximen Hao
Something is wrong with Yihao.
"Do you think so?" Ximen Yi approached Su Ranhua, lowered his head, his eyes were as bright as peach blossoms, and caught her in his sight. He raised his hand, wanting to pick up the calm and slightly Yang, with
A proud chin.
Su Ranhua made a dexterous move and dodged when Ximen Yi was about to touch him.
Ximen Yi's eyes flickered, his steps were smooth, and he pushed the screen in the room that was meant to block the bathtub to the door, blocking the crack in the door that seemed to be there.
The candlelight in the room flickered, casting two figures on the screen. The large screen blocked the shadows cast on the doors and windows, and everything that happened inside the house could not be seen from the outside.
Su Ranhua's eyes narrowed suddenly, paying attention to Ximen Yi's every move.
"Royal Sister-in-law, don't be nervous. Why don't we discuss it carefully if we can't find Wu Shan's countermeasures?" Ximen Yi gently glanced at Su Ranhua's hands folded in his sleeves.
"Are you sure Wushan can't be found?" Su Ranhua asked.
"I mean just in case." Ximen Yi chuckled and slowly approached Su Ranhua, "I'm just an investigator, as long as I get the results, and you want to ensure that Princess Wan marries Wushan, but that's not the case anymore
How can you marry Princess Wan from Wushan? If the Zhaohe Palace dares to speak for Princess Wan, something unexpected happens, and my father will definitely vent some of his anger on you."
"Since it's just anger, it will fade away. At worst, we will be taken to a place like Ye Tingxuan to scare us again." Su Ranhua smiled as calmly as a breeze, "Besides, it's just in case, the real result is not yet
You know, why worry in advance?”
"The royal sister-in-law is so kind, I like it." Ximen Yi stood in front of Su Ran's painting, lowering his head unabashedly, brushing Su Ran's hair, and smelling the fragrant fragrance.
However, what his lips wanted to touch was Su Ranhua's forehead, but Su Ranhua dodged it.
Still not satisfied, Ximen Yi grabbed Su Ranhua with his backhand.
Su Ranhua untied his fur cloak, raised it casually, and hit Ximen Yi. He turned sideways deftly and dodged to the screen.
Ximen Yi split his cloak, a different kind of joy flashed in his eyes, and jumped towards Su Ran's painting.
Su Ranhua, who couldn't get out of the house for a while, had no choice but to fight. Ximen Yi also wanted to see Su Ranhua's moves, so the two started to fight slowly.
"It was indeed you who killed the two guards at Wan'an Temple." Ximen Yi said in a low voice while taking action. Although afterward, others attributed the deaths of those two people to him, thinking that he was the one who saved them.
While leaving Ximen Zhe, he also rescued Su Ranhua and Yao Fei from the siege. In fact, Ximen Yi knew that those two people were not killed by his people at all.
When Concubine Yao told the emperor, she only said that she fainted and did not see the situation at that time. When she woke up, Ximen Zhe was gone, two people were dead in front of her, and Ximen Hao arrived just in time.
"So what?" In front of Ximen Yi, Su Ranhua had no need to hide it.
"I thought you were only good at assassination, but I didn't expect that you are also good at facing enemies head-on." Ximen Yi praised, while at the same time he was curious about Su Ranhua's different tricks than what he knew.
"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty." Su Ranhua made a neat kick back to meet Ximen Yi's palm wind.
"Who did you learn this trick from?" Ximen Yi couldn't help but ask. He secretly detected Su Ranhua's background when he made the move, and there was no sign of internal strength. If a person who is good at martial arts, he will
His aura of martial arts is well hidden, and it cannot but be said that his kung fu is extremely high.
"Does Your Majesty think I can say it?" Su Ranhua whispered.
Ximen Yi's kung fu was good, and with his mastery of light kung fu, he was much faster, which made Su Ranhua feel very difficult to deal with.
Su Ranhua caught the flash in Ximen Yi's eyes, which meant that he didn't want to be entangled with him anymore and was really going to take action. He immediately cheered up and glanced at every corner of the room with his shrewd eyes, finally settling on the center.
in the bathtub.
Just when Ximen Yi quickened his pace and approached Su Ranhua, Su Ranhua made a feint and jumped towards the bathing pool.
"Help!" Su Ranhua's voice suddenly sounded in the room. As her body fell, water splashed everywhere, extinguishing several candles. The remaining candlelight made the room no longer so bright.
"What happened?" Ximen Yi's men rushed into the bathroom without hesitation.
Ximen Yi withdrew his hands and stood by the pool. He never expected that Su Ranhua would come up with this trick to fall into the water "accidentally", startling the people outside the house, covering up the fight just now, and breaking his entanglement.
"What are you doing standing there in a daze? Rescue Princess Bei quickly!" Ximen Yi said loudly to his friend with some annoyance. He stared at Su Ranhua soaking in the bath with slightly narrowed eyes. This woman gave him something that was difficult to control.
Feeling of failure.
Su Ranhua was pulled out of the bathtub. The cold water soaked her whole body, making her shiver from the cold.
"The imperial sister-in-law is frightened." Ximen Yi picked up the fur cloak on the ground and wanted to put it on Su Ranhua.
Su Ranhua grabbed the cloak, put it on himself, held it tightly, lowered his head, and said in a trembling voice, "I'm going back to the palace first."
As soon as the sound fell, he rushed away from the people on the side and ran out of the bathroom.
The sudden accident in the bathroom also attracted the dismissed Yuehua Kingdom envoy, but Ximen Yi, in full view of the public, did not dare to do anything more because of what happened in the criminal room before, and said angrily to the person next to him.
, "Send Princess Bei back to her home."
Ximen Yi's voice floated into Su Ranhua's ears, and she bit her lower lip tightly. Her face was a bit gloomier in the night sky, and her eyes were filled with coldness, which was worse than the coldness on her body.
Upstairs in Mingyue, Chen Mo, who was standing beside Ximen Hao, said to Ximen Hao, who was leaning against the window.
Ximen Hao stared at the empty street. A guard was running from far to near with Su Ranhua, presumably to send her back to the North Palace.
"Leaving the palace so soon?" Ximen Hao asked suspiciously, his eyes suddenly flashed and fell on Su Ran's long hair wetly pasted on the back.
"Go and summon the secret messenger. I want to know what happened in Fenghuayuan." Ximen Hao said.
"Yes." Chen Mo took the order and left, but an unspeakable thought flashed through his heart. The secret envoy is a person who lurks in various places where necessary under the orders of Ximen Hao. For the sake of safety, there is nothing very important.
They would not be recruited back to revive him. However, Ximen Hao just saw Su Ranhua's wet hair and wanted to recruit the secret messenger for questioning. This was really an exception.
