Chapter 66 Entering the palace to face the Holy Spirit
For two days, it was just a process of closing and opening his eyes, closing and opening them again. After that day, Haechi completely ignored me, let alone taking a bath, even washing his face without my intervention.
I don’t care! I, I can’t ask for more!
The seven-day appointment came in a blink of an eye. I packed up early and looked at the big bed with a bit of reluctance. It was spacious, comfortable, and more importantly, sturdy.
I heard from the servants in the mansion that Xie Zhi left the mansion and didn't know when he would come back. Before leaving, he told me that he could leave the mansion if he asked me to pick up Jie Yu.
I should be happy that he let me go so easily, but why do I feel a little disappointed?
When I met Jie Yu again, she was still elegant and calm. I couldn't restrain my excitement and rushed forward to hold her hand, "Jie Yu, we can leave here." I was really happy to save her.
"Well," she nodded lightly, with a hint of shyness on her face, "Thank you, Mr. Shangguan."
"Why are you so open-minded? Let's leave as soon as possible." Jie Yu, despite the serious crime of assassinating the prince, had better leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible.
"good."
As soon as I walked out of the house with Jieyu, I didn't expect to be stopped by a group of officers and soldiers. Jieyu couldn't help but block in front of me, and her hands had already touched her waist.
"The emperor has a decree to announce that Shangguan Feihong will enter the palace to meet the saint!"
Proclaim me? I couldn't get along with that monster, so why did he announce me to the palace? Before I could analyze the reason, I was surrounded by two guards.
Guanyu seemed to be about to take action, so I quickly shook my head at her to stop her. Regardless of whether it was a blessing or a curse, I had to go, and I could just leave. But what about the master and Haechi? If anything happens to me, they will escape.
It doesn't matter.
Staring at me deeply, Jieyu slowly put down his hand.
"Jieyu, I'm going to interview the saint. You, please go home quickly. Your family will be worried if you are out for so long." I still hope that she can find a serious job and not be a killer.
"Let's go." People on both sides urged impatiently, pushing hard without realizing it.
"I won't bother you two, I'll go by myself." I shook my fat body and walked with my head held high and my chest high.
A trace of confusion flashed across Jie Yu's beautiful face. Looking at the group of people leaving, she gritted her teeth, turned around and walked into the palace again.
When Haechi returned home, he was a little surprised to see the long-awaited explanation.
"Didn't I give you permission to leave the house?" He looked around, but didn't find the fat girl. "Where is Xiao Ran?"
"He was announced to the palace by the emperor." Jie Yu said lightly, "This matter must not be simple."
Haechi frowned and thought a little, then raised his head and looked at her, "You care about her?"
Her eyes moved, she slowly looked at him, and she said firmly, "That's right." He was the first person to treat her well, and he made her feel warm.
"Will you protect her?" Haechi asked further.
"...Yes." She will protect him the way he protects herself.
Haezhi nodded and said calmly, "You should know that it's easy for me to get rid of you." Xie Si glanced at Jie Yu with his cold eyes, and then said, "I don't have to pursue the matter of that person sending you to assassinate me, but,
I want you to be responsible for protecting Xiaoran’s safety from now on!”
Jie Yu replied without changing his expression, "I will do what I need to do to protect him, I don't need anyone to give orders!"
Haezhi glanced at her and was not angry, "I will go to the palace to bring her back." He knew very well what his father wanted to do, and he could not leave her there no matter what.
"I'll go too." Jie Yu's attitude was unquestionable.
Haezhi glanced at her, turned around and left without responding. Jieyu quickly followed.
