Bai Yan had no idea what was happening in the system space.
At this moment, he returned to his room, still holding the invitation that Yue Xi had just brought back.
"Your Highness, what do you think Su Li is planning?"
"It's clear that we didn't have a good relationship before, but now he has taken the initiative to invite you to go to Baiyun Temple with you."
Yue Xi couldn't help but frown as she spoke. She raised her hand, rubbed her chin with her fingertips, and said thoughtfully:
"Could it be that because we caught his men this time, he's angry and wants to attack His Highness directly?"
"Your Highness, Your Highness! How about I take An Qi with me and go get him?"
Yue Xi became more and more excited as she spoke, and her eyes sparkled like inlaid gems.
"Speaking of which, he has such a good-looking skin that I can't bear to make him into a human-skin drum. I have to make him into a puppet."
Seeing that she was getting ready to make a move, Bai Yan tapped the table with his fingertips and said with a smile:
"You think you two can beat him?"
"Oh, Your Highness, my good Highness, do you have to attack me at this moment? If you can't beat me, why don't you think about it? I'll draw a picture of his puppet when I get back."
Yue Xi smiled with her eyes curved, not taking Bai Yan's words to heart at all. But when she met Bai Yan's smiling eyes, she straightened her expression slightly.
"But then again, this is definitely a Hongmen Feast for Su Li. He used to be good friends with Bai Xinghe, but he never interfered in the affairs between Bai Xinghe and us."
"I just heard a few days ago that Bai Xinghe was very close to the third young lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion... Now Su Li is probably trying to help Bai Xinghe get rid of us."
"We cannot be unprepared, Your Highness. Let's strike first."
Bai Yan listened to Yue Xi's words and finally just raised his eyes and glanced at her.
"If you are really free recently, I can arrange for you to go to Jizhou to manage the shops there."
"No! Your Highness, you know very well that what I want is not money. I have no shortage of money and I am not interested in it."
Yue Xi folded her arms and snorted softly. She turned her head away and murmured in a low voice, feeling a little aggrieved.
"I just have a special hobby."
"Then give up those unrealistic thoughts. From now on, I'll leave all the assassins to you. I don't care whether you use them to make drums or puppets."
"Okay! Your Highness, please remember this. You said it yourself!"
Seeing Bai Yan nod, Yue Xi's disappointment was swept away, her eyes lit up, and her tone was full of anticipation:
"Then your highness, please have a good rest. I will go to guard outside. If there is another wave of assassins coming today, it would be better if they come in a long and impressive way! That way, I can be a puppet!"
Bai Yan: “…”
Probably no one is like the original owner. Everyone around him wishes there were more people to assassinate him.
Seeing Yue Xi disappear in a flash and considerately close the window for him, Bai Yan simply tidied up and lay down on the bed.
There was incense burning in the room, and the faint fragrance lingered in the air, reminding him of the first world for no reason.
In the first world, he also liked to light those incense, but at that time it was to torment the male protagonist.
I asked a blind man to make and light incense for me, and watched as countless scars fell on his hands, yet I didn't dare to say a word of grievance...
It was quite interesting to think about it. That was the first time he had bullied the male protagonist so openly and without any scruples, without being restricted by the system tasks.
Bai Yan curled the corners of his lips, and the rosary that belonged to Su Li was still wrapped around his wrist.
A black bead is inlaid between the white jade beads, and is engraved with intricate patterns.
Bai Yan rubbed it with his fingertips, then casually threw him aside and ignored him.
He pulled up the quilt and turned on his side to sleep, not noticing the rosary behind him, which emitted a faint glow in the darkness.
At this moment, Su Li, who was in the Imperial Master's Mansion, suddenly narrowed his eyes and revealed disbelief.
He looked at the calculation results in front of him, and couldn't help but take two steps back, raising his hand to cover his heart. His emotions were extremely complicated for a moment.
A trace of blood flowed from the corner of his lips, and the smell of blood spread in his mouth.
However, he didn't care about these things. He walked forward quickly, staring at the white jade table in front of him, his fingertips trembling slightly.
He wanted to touch the things on the white jade table, but stopped in mid-air, his fingers slightly curled up.
"How could this happen? How could it suddenly become like this..."
Su Li's voice trembled slightly as he murmured softly. Even though he was always cold and aloof, it took him a lot of effort to calm himself down at this moment.
Even though he couldn't believe it, he had to accept the result of the calculation.
But who could tell him why the person he had calculated was destined to be a tyrant who would bring disaster to the people?
Now, I actually have a connection with him...? !
This shouldn't happen.
Su Li just felt weak all over. She sat aside, supporting her head with one hand and lightly pressing her eyebrows.
but……
Bai Yan's face appeared in his mind, and he recalled the appearance of the young man he saw during the day.
Thinking about the person sitting quietly under the peach tree drinking tea.
Su Li's thoughts moved slightly...
