Listening to his words, Mingyu was angry and funny, "Fourth elder brother, I think you misunderstood. Xianyue has no intention of marrying fifth elder brother at all. It was fifth elder brother who kept pestering her. This time she asked me to I came to you because I want you to help persuade the fifth elder brother. I really don’t know why the fourth elder brother, you and the imperial concubine think so."
Mingyu's words made Hongli startled and asked in surprise: "Is this really true?"
"How could I lie to you." Saying this, Mingyu looked at Xianyue and said softly: "Okay, please tell the fourth brother carefully about the matter."
Xianyue nodded and was about to speak when she suddenly covered her face with a painful expression. Seeing this, Mingyu quickly said: "What's wrong? Is your cheek stinging again? Didn't you apply any medicine in the morning?"
Xianyue covered her face and said: "I used up all the medicine last night. I saw that my face was much better, so I thought I didn't need to rub it anymore. Who knew that it had been itching a lot since just now, and now it still hurts. It hurts and is very uncomfortable.”
"You girl, you don't know how to take care of yourself at all." Mingyu complained and then said: "That's all, you are talking to Fourth Brother, and I will go to the Imperial Pharmacy to get medicine for you. Where is the prescription that the imperial doctor prescribed before? "
Xianyue quickly took the prescription and gave it to Mingyu, saying gratefully: "Thank you for your hard work, sister."
"It's okay, remember not to scratch it with your hands. No matter how itchy or painful it is, you have to endure it, otherwise you will lose your appearance." After giving a careful warning, Mingyu left.
After he left, Hongli stared at Xianyue closely, as if he wanted to see through his heart. This kind of gaze made Xianyue extremely disgusted. In the Chengqian Palace before, Concubine Xi also looked at her with this kind of gaze, but Xi The imperial concubine's eyes were more mature, and she almost couldn't control her expression.
After staring for a long time, Hongli said: "You said that Hongzhou pestered you, and you were unwilling to marry Hongzhou, so you came to me?"
Xianyue wiped away the tears on her face and said timidly: "I know that Brother Si and Concubine Xi have some misunderstandings about me and my family, and I shouldn't come to ask you for help, but I really can't think of anyone else to ask for help. , so I rashly asked Sister Mingyu to write a letter for me to invite Fourth Elder Brother to come to the palace. Fourth Elder Brother, I can swear to God, I have never thought about marrying Fifth Elder Brother, nor have I ever thought about entering the palace. I just I want to go through this draft in peace, and then go home, and wait for Amma to find a suitable family for me before I get married."
Seeing that she didn't seem to be lying, Hongli frowned slightly and said, "In that case, you can just stay in Zhongcui Palace."
"I didn't mean to do it, but the fifth elder brother was interested. Concubine Xi also misunderstood that I was seducing the fifth elder brother, which I couldn't explain clearly. So I want to ask the fourth elder brother to help me to persuade the fifth elder brother so that he doesn't come to me or come to me again. See me, otherwise this misunderstanding will get deeper."
Hongli thought for a moment, nodded and said: "Okay, I will help you talk to the fifth elder brother, you can rest assured."
"Thank you so much for your help, Fourth Elder Brother." Saying this, Xianyue glanced at him timidly and said, "In addition to Fifth Elder Brother, can Fourth Elder Brother help me talk to the Imperial Concubine? I really I didn’t seduce the fifth elder brother.”
"Even if I don't explain, as long as you are really innocent and innocent, the imperial concubine will know it sooner or later." After saying this, Hongli said: "Is that all you want to say?" After seeing Xianyue nodding. , he added: "I know everything. As long as what you tell is the truth, I will help you."
His words moved Xianyue so much that she choked up and said: "Thank you, Fourth Brother, you are such a good person. Before, I was worried that you would refuse to help me because of your prejudice against my Ama and the others. I never thought that you would really agree.
Thank you Fourth Brother!" Speaking of excitement, Xianyue couldn't help but kneel down and kowtowed to Hongli, even her own head turned red.
Seeing her like this made Hongli feel a little compassionate. He bent down to help her up and said, "It's just a handcuff, there's no need for this."
Hongli was kind-hearted to help her, but what happened next was something Hongli didn't expect. Xianyue grabbed his collar and tore it open with such force that even a stitch was left.
The buttons were all pulled off. After seeing half of the jade pendant hanging around Hongli's neck, his eyes flashed and he tore off the jade pendant with lightning speed and held it tightly in his hand.
Hongli was shocked and pushed her away quickly, saying sternly: "What are you doing? Give me back the jade pendant quickly." This half of the jade pendant was given to him by the Guarjia family. It blocked Hongshi's attack.
After the knife, it was broken into pieces. He found a rope to string up the half jade pendant that was still intact and hung it around his neck.
Xianyue ignored him and just opened her clothes a lot, even exposing her shoulders. In addition, she messed up her bun.
When she was about to run out, Hongli grabbed her from behind and said with a blue face: "What on earth do you want to do?"
At this moment, what appeared on Xianyue's face was a strange smile that Hongli had never seen before, "Brother Si, you have guessed what I want to do, why don't you ask more, or do you actually want to use this
, take advantage of me, if that’s the case, just say it, why bother beating around the bush, you don’t look like a man at all!”
"Bitch!" When she said this, Hongli also realized that he was very close to her, and quickly pushed her away and said: "If you dare to do this, I will break all the bones in your body."
Take it down."
Xianyue smiled sweetly and was not frightened by his words, "If I didn't do this, you would really tear apart my bones. Brother Si, I can only blame you for being careless and being fooled."
Hongli shouted angrily: "Bitch! You used Mingyu to trick me into coming here. So, everything you just said is false!"
"Of course it's a lie. As for what I'm going to do, Brother Si, you'll know later." With that said, Xianyue stepped away quickly, and then ran towards the door. When she saw that she was about to reach the door, a
However, the figure was firmly blocking the door, preventing her from opening the door.
"Don't even think about stepping out of this door!" Hongli had been keeping an eye on Xianyue, so how could he let her find an opportunity to go out and destroy his reputation? "I say it again, give me back the jade pendant!"
Xianyue raised her chin and said, "What if I don't return the favor?"
"Then you forced me to do it!" At this moment, Hongli looked at Xianyue as if he were looking at a dead person. "Although I don't like to hit women, if that woman crosses my bottom line regardless of life and death, I won't do it either.
I'll be polite to her, but you'd better not force me."
Xianyue responded with a sneer, "Yes, you can indeed hit me or even kill me to snatch the jade pendant back from my hand, but you can't escape either, Brother Si, from the moment you step in here
, you have already fallen into the trap, and it is impossible to escape unscathed!"
