Chapter 44 Are you going to leave the palace?
Xiao Linyuan pinched her arm through her clothes, "What are you looking at!"
Do you like women who dress revealingly?
Song Zijin retracted his gaze, handed the teacup to Xiao Linyuan's mouth, stared at him with a pair of innocent big eyes, and said flatteringly: "It won't taste good when it's cold."
Xiao Linyuan sighed and drank the tea in one gulp.
After drinking the whole cup, the feeling of heat that had just arisen gradually subsided.
Song Zijin took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the sweat from his forehead.
The elegant fragrance continued to fill Xiao Linyuan's nostrils, more overbearing than the aphrodisiac in the wine. His breathing became heavy again and he grasped her slender wrist.
His tone was slightly fierce: "Sit down and rest for a while. This is the last time. You are not allowed to use your own blood again. Remember!"
Song Zijin was very afraid of his fierce look, biting the pure meat and said aggrievedly: "I remember it."
She was clearly helping him, so why was she being so mean to her?
Bad prince!
As soon as he sat down, he saw Xiao Jin's unfriendly gaze and quickly took out his round fan to fan Xiao Linyuan.
"Don't move!" Xiao Linyuan gritted his teeth and warned again.
He could resist the medicine, but he couldn't resist the fragrance on her body.
Is she a fairy in disguise?
Song Zijin felt extremely aggrieved. He curled up into a small ball and sat there motionless.
Xiao Linyuan didn't dare to move until Emperor Guangxi left. He silently spread his legs under the table and lifted the hem of his clothes, making his attempt to cover up his mistake even more obvious.
I almost lost my composure in front of her.
Thinking of the beauty in his heart, Emperor Guangxi's steps became lighter.
"Where are they?"
Eunuch Wan said respectfully, "Your Majesty, Changle Palace."
"Yes. Also, is there any confirmation of Hehuan Powder in Xiao Linyuan's wine glass?"
Eunuch Wan felt uneasy. "This was done by me personally, I guarantee there was no mistake. I think the Golden Axe King is indeed paralyzed, and that thing is useless. He won't be able to recover anytime soon."
Seeing that Emperor Guangxi's expression did not change, Eunuch Wan rolled his eyes.
"God has awakened King Jinyue to punish him for his evil ambitions. He has been forced to watch helplessly as Your Majesty recaptures the Xiao Family Army!"
The flattery sounded pleasant, and Emperor Guangxi's expression relaxed a little.
"Even so, we must not slow down our surveillance of him."
"Your Majesty, rest assured. Lord Xiao will do his best."
Emperor Guangxi was no longer confident in Xiao Jin. Two restaurants in the capital collapsed one after another, and all signs indicated that they were closely related to Xiao Jin.
In the art of being an emperor, balance is important, but it is even more important to have people around you who obey you.
"You can arrange for a few shadow guards to go there, and there's no need to inform Xiao Jin."
Since Xiao Linyuan is able to survive, there is a possibility of recovery. He must take everything into his own hands.
"Also, have Jiang Huaihai speed up his work and get the seal of command of the Xiao family army!"
"yes!"
…
After the palace banquet was over, Song Zijin pushed Xiao Linyuan's wheelchair out.
The tense heartstrings finally relaxed a little. The mother Gu didn't move today, so that's all.
Wen Yan followed closely behind, with a very bad look on his face, but he never came forward to disturb them.
After getting on the carriage, Xiao Linyuan lifted the curtain and met Wen Yan's eyes.
The air froze for a moment.
Xiao Linyuan narrowed his eyes and slowly lowered the curtain to block out the view from outside.
He still felt a little hot and restless, so he didn't dare get close to Song Zijin. He simply leaned against the car window and used the wind to stay awake.
Song Zijin straightened his attitude and quickly admitted his mistake: "Your Highness, just now in the palace..."
"Just now in the palace you..."
The two people spoke at the same time and stopped at the same time.
Xiao Linyuan turned to look at her, only to see her kneeling beside him. "Don't kneel down all the time. Speak first."
"Your Highness, please speak first." Song Zijin was afraid of him when he was serious.
"Why did you suddenly... act like that in the palace just now?" Thinking of her gentle and considerate appearance, Xiao Linyuan's ears turned slightly red.
But Song Zijin's next words were like a bucket of cold water poured over his head.
"Xiao Jin agreed to let me come to the palace on the condition that I seduce the prince."
“…”
Xiao Linyuan's face darkened visibly, his dark pupils were as deep as a cold pond in the coldest days of winter.
Song Zijin couldn't help but shudder, "But I didn't intend to listen to him! Besides, Your Majesty, you are a chaste man. You didn't even want to eat with me, so you didn't give me the opportunity to seduce you. So I didn't bother you, right..."
She was afraid that Xiao Linyuan would not believe her and kick her off the carriage.
"If Your Majesty doesn't believe me, feel free to send me to live in a small courtyard. I promise not to show up in front of Your Majesty, okay?"
These words of discussion were like a cold wind, blowing away all the heat in Xiao Linyuan's body.
Especially the pitiful look of her curled up in a small ball in a corner of the carriage. Was she so afraid of him?
"Does the king treat you badly?" he couldn't help but ask.
His expression couldn't reveal his joy or anger, but Song Zijin knew that he was in a bad mood.
"The prince treats me very well! If it weren't for the prince, I can't say what kind of person I would have been tortured into by Xiao Jin..."
"Then do you blame me for taking away your innocence?"
Xiao Linyuan has always been concerned about this matter.
Although she was strong-willed and chose the path of being a doctor, how did she feel about him taking the blame but not taking responsibility?
Would you think he is a villain like Xiao Jin?
Song Zijin was stunned. This matter was a taboo for both of them. It was like a layer of window paper. They could live peacefully until it was poked, but once it was poked, everything would leak out.
"I don't blame the prince..." She bit her lip.
"Are you afraid to complain, or do you really not mind your innocence?" Xiao Linyuan asked.
His eyes were fixed on hers, not missing a single change in her expression.
Song Zijin lowered her head, her eyebrows twisted into a knot, but she didn't shed tears as casually as before.
"No one doesn't care about their innocence. If women are like this, are men not like this too? Then, Your Highness, do you blame me?"
Xiao Linyuan didn't expect her to ask back like this, and couldn't help but be stunned.
Does he care?
It seems that he cares about her too, so when it's late at night and he can't fall asleep, his mind is full of thoughts about how she searched for him the night he woke up.
He has always been a man of integrity and never went to brothels with other soldiers to look for women in the army.
It is inevitable that a military general has strong demands, but after he became obsessed with practicing martial arts and training with weapons, his brain was excited and his brothers became obedient.
Occasionally, when he couldn't help it, he would solve the problem himself and would never touch any indecent woman.
He is looking forward to sharing his life with a like-minded and equally capable woman in the future.
But since waking up this time, I haven't thought of this idea for many days. Instead, I am worried about her.
Is it because she is his first woman?
No matter what, there was one truth he could not deny: this heart had developed a strange feeling because of her.
Seeing that he remained silent for a long time, Song Zijin's heart sank.
"My Lord, once you're well, I will leave the palace and reunite with my parents. Don't worry, what happened between us won't become a source of friction between you and the princess. I promise I'll never appear in the capital or Jin Yue again."
Xiao Linyuan's attention was focused on the first half of the sentence. He asked in disbelief, "You want to leave the palace?"
"Yes, I don't belong to the palace in the first place. My leaving will only benefit the prince and not harm him."
Her voice gradually became quieter, approaching a whisper.
For some reason, she felt so sad that her heart broke when she said she was leaving.
