Chu Li picked up the handkerchief and slowly wiped the corners of his mouth:
"Miss Sun, you are being polite. The Regent is not my property. There is no such thing as an exchange."
There was a smile in the corner of Sun Yuxue's eyes.
That……
Did she agree to this?
That’s great!
"Cousin, I suddenly remembered that I have something else to do. Please stay here for a while. I will come back later."
Liu Shengnan was naturally overjoyed. After Sun Yuxue left, her eyes of amazement and greed fell on Chu Li impatiently:
"Miss Xie, my name is Liu Shengnan, and I am honored to be here."
He had an average appearance, with narrow eyes, and he stared straight at Chu Li with no concealment in his gaze.
Chu Li said calmly: "Thank you Wanyue."
"Yes, I know Miss Xie's maiden name. It's a really nice name. Wan Yue Wan Yue, as bright as the moon."
As Liu Shengnan spoke, she pulled out a chair and sat down next to Chu Li.
As soon as he got close to her, he seemed to be able to smell her fragrance, which made his head go blank and he felt drunk.
Smells so good.
What a nice view.
"I just passed the imperial examination this year. My father is a wealthy businessman in Tianshui City, and my mother is the younger sister of the prefect of Tianshui City. Sun Yuxue and I are cousins. Our family is rich, with fine clothes, delicious food, and silks and satins. We have an endless supply of them..."
Beep beep.
He enumerated his conditions in ecstasy.
He's not bragging, with his conditions and looks, he must have a bright future. There are so many women who would love to marry him, but he looks down on any of them.
His wife must be the most beautiful woman in the world!
As long as you marry him, you will enjoy endless happiness and endless money in this life. It is such good luck that even your ancestors’ graves will be smoking!
Chu Li glanced at him from the corner of her eye, seeing how he was so engrossed that he couldn't control himself, and drank a sip of tea with a calm expression.
She just had a few words with the emperor's uncle.
It was just a quarrel, not a violation of the law.
at the same time.
The other side.
After Sun Yuxue left the front hall, she couldn't hide her joy in her heart and walked quickly towards the study in the west wing.
"Xue'er?"
Prefect Sun had just come over from the corridor, looked in her direction, and asked, "What are you doing in the study? That's where the regent and the lieutenants hold meetings. You're a girl, don't trespass."
"Don't worry, Daddy. I won't go."
"Um."
Sun Yuxue had a smile on her face. She waited until her father walked away before running into the study.
Bang!
Open the door.
Behind the desk, Chu Dichi suddenly raised his eyes, and his sharp eyebrows made Sun Yuxue's back stiffen, as if two swords were shooting at her, causing her smile to suddenly freeze on her face:
“Regent…”
Several lieutenants lowered their heads.
Jingying and Chongfeng on the side did not speak.
Sun Yuxue quickly calmed down and smiled innocently and sweetly: "This is my home, my father's study. The Regent King won't blame Xue'er for coming here uninvited, right?"
Raise your little face and smile super sweetly.
Deputy General Wei lowered his head, held his forehead, and thought:
What Miss Sun meant by this was that the Prince Regent had taken over Magistrate Sun's place?
Deputy General Wang sighed in his heart:
Oh my god!
Miss Sun said this, is she trying to drive the Regent away?
Chu Dichi closed the secret letter and asked, "What's the matter?"
Sun Yuxue was as shy as a flower that could not withstand the moon, and her voice was sweet: "Xue'er, there is nothing important~"
"Jingying, show the guest away."
"It's just that on the way here, I saw something I shouldn't have seen."
"What is it?"
Sun Yuxue pinched the corner of her clothes, her expression of wanting to refuse but also wanting to accept was fascinating: "It's actually not a big deal."
"Shock Shadow."
Jingying was about to step forward, and Sun Yuxue hurriedly said, "It was me who saw Miss Xie!"
Chu Dichi frowned.
Thinking of last night...
She pursed her lips and asked calmly, "What's the matter?"
Sun Yuxue blushed and said, "It's not a big deal. I hope the Regent will not take Xue'er's words to heart."
"Shock Shadow."
"But Xue'er thought about it again and again and decided to tell the Regent."
Chu Dichi crushed the secret letter in his hand and said in a deep voice: "...What's the matter?"
"Miss Xie is with my cousin! Ouch!" As he said this, he covered his eyes in embarrassment, feeling very ashamed.
"..."
Several deputy generals had black lines on their foreheads, some of them couldn't bear to look at Miss Sun's awkward look of wanting to refuse but also to accept.
More importantly, they were discussing military affairs, and Miss Sun barged in so brazenly on such an important occasion...
Jingying's eyes twitched.
If you want to say something, just say it. If you don’t want to say it, then don’t say it. Why are you making so many fake moves?
Chong Feng remained calm and composed as a mountain.
Chu Dichi raised his voice coldly: "Really?"
"I saw it with my own eyes. They were talking and laughing together. I don't know what they were talking about. They were so happy that even I couldn't get a word in. If the Regent doesn't believe me, why not go and see for yourself?"
Jingying carefully looked at his master's expression:
"master?"
There was no emotion in Chu Dichi's calm eyes. He brushed off the scraps of paper in his hand, stood up and said:
"That's all for today. Lieutenant General Yang and Military Advisor Li, immediately escort the medical supplies to reunite with Commander Xiao."
"yes!"
"They are all gone."
Sun Yuxue was slightly delighted. After most people had left, she led the Regent to the front yard, stood outside the hall door, and pointed in the distance:
"Look."
She wasn't talking nonsense, was she?
Miss Xie was sitting with her cousin, chatting and laughing.
She couldn't help but say sincerely:
"Ms. Xie is extremely beautiful, and my cousin is handsome and elegant. When they are together, they really look like a perfect match!"
Chu Dichi stood outside the door and smiled faintly:
"Call Magistrate Sun over here."
Sun Yuxue was slightly suspicious.
Why call daddy?
Is he disappointed with Xie Wanyue and wants to immediately announce that he will welcome her as his wife?
That’s impossible!
She still has half a year to go before she reaches marriageable age. Could it be that the Regent likes her so much?
So embarrassing!
Sun Yuxue blushed and pinched the corner of her clothes shyly. Her cheeks were hot and she didn't dare to look at the man's stern face.
Soon, Magistrate Sun came running over, cupping his hands respectfully:
"I wonder why the Regent suddenly wants to see me?"
Daddy, it's a good thing.
What a great thing.
Chu Dichi glared at him coldly, "Is this how Magistrate Sun disciplines his daughter? I just didn't have breakfast with Miss Xie, but Miss Sun is plotting against Miss Xie behind her back. How about this, you should stop being the Magistrate and go to the theater with your family?"
Prefect Sun was so frightened that his legs went limp and he fell to his knees.
"I didn't know my little girl had made a mistake. Considering that this is her first offense, please show some mercy, Lord Regent!"
Sun Yuxue was hit hard.
Don't you want to marry her?
Why punish her?
Why?
Didn’t he have a fight with Xie Wanyue?
Last night, she clearly saw with her own eyes that the two of them parted unhappily!
Chu Li in the hall heard the noise and turned his head to look over. He saw the cold and arrogant man at first sight and remembered that he had not returned home all night...
Without showing any emotion, he stood up and walked out:
"What's going on?"
