"I'm sorry, you almost died because of me." After a long time, Xuan Ningyi stared at Murong Jingwan's busy figure and said apologetically.
He shook his head gently, why should he apologize to her? It was her who should apologize, he was not wrong.
"Your Majesty, the day I promised you to enter the palace, Jingwan had already guessed today's outcome. Even if she dies, this is Jingwan's choice and she will not regret it." With these decisive words, she looked up at Xuan Ningyi's eyes, which were filled with silence.
.
"Nonsense!" Two simple words, but two pairs of eyes looking at each other showed different moods.
The scene just now made his heart beat without stopping until now. He couldn't let the same thing happen again in front of him.
"Jingwan, can I arrange a martial arts maid for you to protect you personally?" Xuan Ningyi thought for a moment, frowning, would Murong Jingwan misunderstand that he wanted to find someone to spy on her?
.
He secretly raised his eyes, took a quick look at Xuan Ningyi's expression, and then quickly lowered his head.
"Your Majesty, can Jingwan recommend someone?" There was a cowardice in her soft voice that was afraid of being rejected.
He raised his uninjured left hand and placed a strand of hair hanging down from Murong Jingwan's ear behind her head.
"Of course I can trust the person you recommend." Xuan Ningyi said with a smile and gently pinched Murong Jingwan's small nose.
Xuan Ningyi's kindness to her did not make her happy, but her heart became more and more closed-minded.
If there was a sigh, "Jingwan, who do you recommend? I will send someone to invite her into the palace tomorrow." Xuan Ningyi didn't like the silence between the two.
Murong Jingwan regretted it only after she said it. Can you recommend Lian'er? She is the right-hand assistant of the master of Shuiyun Palace, how should she explain her acquaintance with Lian'er.
"Shui Lian'er, the right-hand man of the Master of Shuiyun Palace." After telling the answer, Murong Jingwan lowered her head, not daring to look at Xuan Ningyi.
The expected answer is that I have known for a long time that the woman in my mind is not an ordinary person.
There was no surprise or questioning. Xuan Ningyi just said calmly: "I understand. I will accompany you to invite her tomorrow. No matter how much it costs, I will invite her for you."
Why not ask? Murong Jingwan hoped that Xuan Ningyi would ask her. In this way, she would tell her her true identity and change her identity to continue to stay by his side.
"My lord, don't you have any doubts in your mind?" She didn't believe that Xuan Ningyi could be so calm. That kind of calmness made her inexplicably scared. It was as if she had everything under her control.
"One day you will let me know the answer. I just need to wait for the day when you are willing to tell me, instead of forcing me to ask you. If you feel that it is not appropriate for me to accompany you, you can go alone."
She has always wanted to know why Xuan Ningyi was so kind to her. Was it really love at first sight? She didn't believe it. No one in the world would fall in love at first sight for an ugly girl.
Could it be that he knew that he was the palace lord of Shuiyun Palace and was treating her well just to bribe her. But how could those sincere feelings and warm eyes be fake?
Countless guesses but no definite answer.
Until a warm voice sounded from above her head, Murong Jingwan stopped thinking and looked at Xuan Ningyi blankly. She didn't hear a word of what Xuan Ningyi said just now.
Without embarrassing Murong Jingwan, Xuan Ningyi smiled and repeated it.
"Jingwan, it's late at night, I won't disturb your rest."
When she came to her senses, she was alone in the room again. Only the faint smell of blood in the air proved that Xuan Ningyi had just come and blocked a fatal blow for her.
The night is still very long, and Murong Jingwan is destined to be unable to sleep tonight.
Without Xuan Ningyi accompanying him, Murong Jingwan invited Shui Lian'er into the palace when he went to the morning court.
During this period, the servants in the palace saw Xuan Ningyi's love for Murong Jingwan.
Regarding the sudden appearance of Shui Lian'er next to Murong Jingwan, no one commented as they already knew it in their hearts.
After making sure no one was eavesdropping, Shui Lian'er smiled and called cheerfully: "Palace Master!"
He glared at Shui Lian'er lightly and said reproachfully: "Lian'er, you are a young lady, not the palace master!"
She stuck out her tongue naughtily. The name she just called was intentional because her palace master only had one expression all year round.
He looked helplessly at Shui Lian'er, this girl was usually spoiled by him.
"Lian'er, how are you doing with Xiaohuan?" I have always cared about her in my heart. If I hadn't met her, maybe her life would not have been disrupted.
"She's fine, I just miss Miss very much." Shui Lian'er answered frankly.
The big stone in her heart finally fell. She was living a good life. You Shui Lian'er's words were enough.
Murong Jingwan slowly stood up and walked to Shui Lian'er, her face returning to seriousness.
Shui Lian'er quickly covered up the smile on her lips. Every time Murong Jingwan looked at her with this expression, it meant that she had something important to tell her.
"Miss, please give me your instructions, Lian'er will try his best to do it." Shui Lian'er clasped his hands in his fists, bent down and said respectfully.
He walked slowly to the table, picked up the kettle on the table and poured a glass of water into the cup.
Gently dip your hand into the water and write the name in your heart one stroke at a time.
Shui Lian'er looked at these names attentively and silently remembered them in her heart. Murong Jingwan would not write them down a second time. She had to remember them all before the traces disappeared.
"Lian'er, we need to insert our spies into these people's houses to find out the relationship between them and Xuan Ningyi. Remember, it must be certain rather than possible." He raised his head and shot his cold eyes at Shui Lian'er,
After being restored as the palace mistress of Shuiyun Palace, she is just the leader of a killer organization and will not have any emotions.
Keeping all the names in mind, Shui Lian'er frowned slightly. It seemed that one person was missing, and it was the most important person. Did the Palace Master forget it? But how could the Palace Master forget such an important person...
.
"I am personally responsible for Lin Ruihan." Murong Jingwan said lightly. Lin Ruihan, as his name suggests, is not only unparalleled in wisdom and military skills, but also has a surprisingly cold personality that makes it difficult for people to get close to him. However, he is very close to Xuan Ningyi.
"Miss, you have to worry about dealing with the prince, can Lin Ruihan let Lian'er deal with him?" Shui Lian'er said softly. After seeing him for a while, Murong Jingwan got used to frowning.
"Lian'er, the only way to deal with Lin Ruihan is with Xuan Ningyi." Murong Jingwan shook her head and said.
Shui Lian'er looked at Murong Jingwan distressedly, and a smile suddenly appeared on her face.
"Miss, I will definitely protect your safety from now on, you can rest assured." There were slight footsteps outside the door, and Shui Lian'er immediately acted accordingly.
Giving Shui Lian'er an appreciative smile, the door to the room was pushed open at the same time.
