Xie Xiuzhu has a baby face, as round as a doll in a New Year picture, very cute. Everyone praises her. It is the first time someone says that she has a big face!
Meng Huaichuan curled his lips maliciously: "Your mother lied to you, your face will be big forever!"
"You! You'll be a useless person your whole life!"
Wanruo hurriedly asked the maids following behind her to help drag Xie Xiuzhu away.
Meng Huaichuan was also pulled away by the gang of thugs, and finally stopped this fierce battle.
Wanruo finally pulled Xie Xiuzhu out of the peach forest.
Xie Xiuzhu was so angry that she crushed a handful of peach blossoms and gnashed her teeth: "Even if I die, I will never marry such a playboy!"
Wanruo patted her back helplessly to calm her down. It looked like this marriage was really not going to work.
If these two firecrackers get married, won't they fight every day in the future?
Xie Xiuzhu lost her mood to play and went back to her tent angrily.
Wanruo was about to go back when she suddenly heard someone calling her, "Doctor Bai."
Wanruo turned around in surprise and saw that it was Li Jingzhao.
Wan Ruo bowed: "Why is Your Highness here?"
"I heard some noise coming from Taolin, so I came to check it out. I didn't expect you to be there too." Li Jingzhao smiled.
"It's just the kids making noise. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Your Highness."
"Why are you being so distant to me? Are you still holding a grudge against me for trying to use you? I truly had no ill will towards you back then, and I meant it when I said I wanted to help you leave."
Li Jingzhao paused, looking at her with a more complicated look in his eyes: "No matter when, what I said counts."
Wan Ruo frowned slightly. "What happened in the past is all in the past. Your Highness doesn't hold a grudge against me for cutting your neck, so I naturally won't mind Your Highness trying to use me."
Li Jingzhao chuckled: "If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten. I should have asked you for some medical expenses."
Before Wanruo could speak, she suddenly heard a cold voice: "Is Beiliang so poor? Even this little money requires His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to come and ask for it personally?"
Wanruo turned around and saw that it was Xie Xianyu who came.
Li Jingzhao smiled and bowed, "Thank you, sir."
Xie Xianyu walked over to Wanruo's side, his expression cold, "Counting the days, isn't it time for Your Highness to return to Beiliang?"
"Yes, I originally planned to come and ask for the Lord's hand in marriage, but I never thought..."
Unexpectedly, the struggle for the throne in the Western Zhou Dynasty changed too quickly. The King of Jin fell, and his biological sister Ming'an Jizhu also lost power. There was no point in him marrying her.
If King Xuan of Zhou were to fall, it would be unknown who would be in charge of the Western Zhou Dynasty in the future. We must not be careless about the matter of marriage alliance.
"Your Highness, it seems your trip here was in vain."
Li Jingzhao did nothing, but was taken advantage of several times by Xie Xianyu, and he could only suffer in silence.
Li Jingzhao smiled indifferently: "How could it be a wasted trip? If I hadn't come to Xizhou, I wouldn't have met Master Xie..."
He paused, his eyes falling on Wanruo, and then continued, "And Madam Xie."
Xie Xianyu's eyes darkened slightly, and his voice was cold: "Your Highness, you are too polite. There may be opportunities for us to meet again in the future."
He stared at Li Jingzhao, with a sharp gleam in his eyes.
When he was in power in the Western Zhou Dynasty, he was also unifying the world. Beiliang was the first to be hit. How could he let it go?
Li Jingzhao's smile froze slightly.
Xie Xianyu simply pulled Wanruo and turned to leave.
Li Jingzhao watched them leave, and the smile in his eyes gradually disappeared.
"Your Highness, when will we set out to return to Beiliang?"
Li Jingzhao's voice was slightly cold: "How can I go back when nothing is done?"
"But the situation in the Western Zhou Dynasty is probably unstable..."
"Really?" Li Jingzhao raised his lips sarcastically, "That may not be the case."
His eyes deepened a little. Even if he wanted to go back, he should finish what he should do and get the person he should get. Otherwise, wouldn't it be a waste of time?
He won't do business that will lose money.
Xie Xianyu pulled Wanruo back.
Wanruo felt that the atmosphere was not good, so she asked him, "Why are you here?"
"I can't come?"
Wanruo was stunned. Why is he like this again?
He snorted coldly: "You are quite capable. You can talk to all kinds of people."
"You mean the Crown Prince of Beiliang? After all, we knew each other before, so let me say hello."
"Really?" He stopped suddenly, turned around and stared at her with cold eyes.
She looked up at him in confusion: "What else?"
His eyes suddenly fell on her lips, and he remembered her unexpected kiss on him in the tent at noon.
My heart beat faster unconsciously.
His eyes flickered slightly, and the breath that was stuck in his throat suddenly dissipated completely.
He should be nicer to her since she likes him so much.
He pursed his lips, looked away awkwardly, and said in a much gentler voice, "It's very cold in the mountains. You haven't recovered yet. Are you cold?"
