Chapter 52 You are angry
When Yong'an heard that Xiao Yuheng was really going to choose, he immediately stopped crying and looked at his uncle expectantly, shouting, "Choose me, choose me!"
Shen Yue also guessed from Xiao Yuheng's reaction that he had seen through their plan. At this point, she had no choice but to wait for Xiao Yuheng to say, "I choose Yong'an."
She even hoped that he would choose quickly because she was tired after a day and really wanted to go back to bed early.
The one-eyed man was about to complete his mission and he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay, then, my lord, who would you choose?"
"This king chooses—"
Xiao Yuheng swept his cold gaze across Shen Yue, then moved to Yong'an, and finally fell back on Shen Yue.
For some reason, Shen Yue clearly didn't want to play this boring game of choosing one or the other, and she also knew that Xiao Yuheng would not choose her, but she just couldn't suppress the nervousness in her heart. Her heart was beating so fast that it almost reached her throat.
At this moment, Xiao Yuheng raised his index finger and pointed at Chen Yue, "This king chooses him."
As soon as the words fell, everyone in the venue was stunned.
Shen Yue's pupils suddenly shrank and her heart almost stopped.
What is Xiao Yuheng doing?
Yongan took a while to react, and after confirming that he had heard correctly, he burst into tears.
The tears flowed down one by one as if they were free, until she heard Xiao Yuheng say again: "Stay."
?What's the meaning?
Xiao Yuheng repeated lightly, "This king chooses him to stay."
Yongan blinked his big moist eyes, was stunned for a long time, and finally realized what he meant.
"Uncle Huang, Uncle Huang really cares about me, Shen Er, did you hear that? I won!"
"I heard it." Shen Yue bit her lower lip and responded word by word.
If Xiao Yuheng had directly chosen Yong'an, she would not have had any thoughts, but he chose in this way. Shen Yue felt extremely humiliated and her cheeks were burning.
Noticing the change in her expression, Xiao Yuheng was also panicked for a moment.
Why, only the two of them were allowed to tease him, but he couldn't return the favor in the same way?
Seeing that the situation was settled, the one-eyed dragon's face was filled with relief. "Since the prince has made his choice, please bring the banknotes. You can take the girl away. As for the pretty boy... he will belong to us brothers."
As he spoke, he freed one hand and put it around Shen Yue's waist.
How could Shen Yue not notice his movements?
She was already annoyed to death at this moment, and when she saw that the one-eyed man was still trying to provoke her, she immediately wanted to break the rope and beat him up.
But before she could use her strength, she saw countless tiny white lights shooting towards the one-eyed dragon from the treetops in the distance.
Treetops, dew, white light... Chen Yue finally realized that those were the ice needles shot by Xiao Yuheng!
"don't want!"
Her heart tightened, and she suddenly raised her leg and kicked the one-eyed man several meters away.
The next second, countless ice needles as thin as cow hair pierced into the ground at lightning speed and disappeared into the soil.
When he raised his eyes again, he saw the murderous intent in Xiao Yuheng's narrow and long phoenix eyes.
"Your Highness, he is just an ordinary bandit and his crime does not deserve the death penalty!" she said anxiously.
"Really?" Xiao Yuheng said coldly, "Kidnap the princess of the current dynasty, isn't that a crime punishable by death?"
"No! I didn't hold the princess hostage!"
The one-eyed dragon rolled up from the ground and knelt in front of Xiao Yuheng.
"Your Highness, it was the princess who insisted that we cooperate in a play, and we had no choice but to obey. Please understand!"
Seeing this, the other bandits dropped their swords and knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, please be merciful and forgive us!"
"Uncle..."
Yongan knew it was time to confess. Tears welled up in his eyes as he looked at Xiao Yuheng eagerly, "Yongan knows I was wrong."
Xiao Yuheng did not respond, but just glanced at her and turned his horse around.
"Save the princess and return home."
In the study room of Prince Cheng’s Mansion.
Yongan had already changed his clothes and was kneeling on the ground crying, while Chenyue was kneeling beside him, not saying a word.
Xiao Yuheng turned the teacup and was silent for a long time before speaking.
"Yong'an, go back to your room. Baozhu will bring dinner to your room."
The little girl looked up at him and whispered, "Uncle, will you blame Yongan?"
"Of course not." Xiao Yuheng looked at her calmly, "But, this won't happen again."
Yongan always showed his joy. After hearing what Xiao Yuheng said, he immediately burst into laughter and said, "Yes, then Yongan will withdraw."
After Yongan left, Shen Yue bowed consciously: "Your Majesty, I know I was wrong."
Anyway, the blame will fall on her sooner or later, so she chooses to take the blame.
She thought Xiao Yuheng would reply with "What's wrong?" or fly into a rage, but he just gave her a cold look and said, "You're angry."
Not a question, but a determination.
He knew she was just angry.
Shen Yue pursed her lips and said, "I don't have any."
"No, you do." Xiao Yuheng frowned and looked at her steadily. "Why are you angry? Because I didn't choose you?"
Shen Yue rolled her eyes secretly when she heard this.
You bastard, you take yourself too seriously. I don’t want to play the extreme two-choice game with you. What I mind is your teasing, okay!
"no."
"If it's not because of this, then why are you angry?" Xiao Yuheng didn't understand.
"Yong'an is a daughter of a noble family. You allowed Ersi to deceive me and put Yong'an in danger. I haven't blamed you yet. What are you angry about, huh?"
When she heard the words "golden branches and jade leaves", the humiliation that had just subsided in Shen Yue's heart suddenly surged up again.
"Yes! The princess is a golden branch and jade leaf, and I am a dead branch and rotten leaf. Everything is my fault, okay?"
Her voice was not only loud, but also full of grievance. Xiao Yuheng couldn't help but frown even deeper after hearing it.
"Why are you so angry? I have no intention of belittling your status."
"Yes, Your Highness did not belittle me. It was I who belittled myself. A servant is a servant. Angry or not, dead or alive, it doesn't matter. I just hope Your Highness will not vent his anger on the Second Division Shadow Guards for what happened today. They were all just following orders. Please punish just one of my servants!"
"you!"
Xiao Yuheng was so angry that his eyebrows were crooked.
Why is Shen Er always like this, taking on everything?
"You really think that this king dare not punish you, do you?"
"I dare not!" Shen Yue touched the ground with her head, "Please punish me, Your Majesty!"
"Okay..." Xiao Yuheng felt like his lungs were about to explode with anger, "Changfeng!"
Changfeng pushed the door open and walked in, "Your Majesty."
"Drag Shen Er out and give him twenty lashes!"
Changfeng looked at Chen Yue and hesitated for a moment, then finally responded "yes" and took her out the door.
But before he had taken two steps, a certain prince suddenly called him, "Changfeng."
The prince seemed to be having difficulty speaking, and his eyes were a little evasive. "Ten strokes will be enough."
