Chapter 64 Your lover actually vented your anger for you!
Manluo was annoyed when she saw Xiyan ignoring her, and curled her lips:
"It's so boring, why don't you just stop talking about it!"
Xiyan then slowed down and sat down at the table.
Seeing this, Manluo came over immediately:
"I heard all about your deeds during your visit to the palace this time. You did a great job, and the Demon God must be very satisfied with your performance. Otherwise, why would he treat you like this right after you returned?"
Xiyan's cheeks flushed:
"This is our job as death warriors!"
"My job?"
Manluo raised the corner of her mouth and said, "I haven't heard that my duties also include sleeping with the prince."
When Xiyan heard this, she raised her eyebrows and was about to get angry, but Manluo chuckled and changed the subject:
"I mean you're very charming! Look, you didn't bring me into the palace with you. Even if I got horny and climbed into the Sha Shen's bed, he would have to kick me out."
"Manluo!"
Xiyan really wanted to go up and hit her.
"Okay, okay, let's not tell it!" Manluo quickly moved her hips to the side.
"However, that slut Helian Shu actually dared to slap you. She's really offended Tai Sui. I heard that last night, on her way back to Lanzhi Palace, a civet cat suddenly jumped out and scratched her face. It's hard to say whether she was disfigured or not!"
Xi Yan was stunned:
"really?"
"Absolutely true!" Manluo nodded.
Xiyan's eyes flickered slightly: "Why is there a civet cat in the palace?"
"Needless to say, your lover actually vented your anger for you!"
Xiyan remained silent.
Manluo continued:
"It seems that the evil spirit has planted many spies in the palace, so it's not difficult for him to do something. In fact, the person to assassinate Xu Jingzhen this time didn't have to be you, but he chose you. It shows that he trusts you the most in his heart!"
Xiyan recalled what Xiao Nanyue said last night and guessed that it was him who sent someone to do it.
Helian Shu had a secret crush on him, but instead of appreciating her, he attacked her. A woman's beauty was more important than her life, so he was merciless in his attack on the Helian clan.
Xiyan curled her lips and smiled, and said softly:
"He's not venting his anger on my behalf. It's just his own property, and he won't tolerate it being humiliated or bullied by others!"
Manluo didn't know how to respond, so she changed her target:
"By the way, I heard that you met Chu Jin again when you entered the palace this time. Did he become suspicious of you?"
Xiyan nodded:
"Yes! However, he has never seen my true face. Even if he has suspicions, he can't find any evidence against me."
Manluo rolled her eyes and snorted coldly:
"This bastard is always trying to make things difficult for us. He really deserves to be punished!"
Seeing her eager to fight, Xiyan felt nervous and warned her:
"Don't you dare mess with him again! Chu Jin is definitely not a good person. His poison skills are superior to yours. If he discovers your identity, your life will be in danger!"
Manluo waved her hand nonchalantly:
"Oh, don't worry! I'm not a three-year-old child, I know how to act properly."
Xiyan thought of the danger of last night and frowned deeply:
"Once Xu Jingzhen dies, it will inevitably cause a huge uproar. I'm afraid the court will be in turmoil. The Southern Zhao will definitely think that it is our Tianqi who is provoking them, and those ministers in the court who advocate friendship with the Southern Zhao will also be ready to take action because of this matter."
Manluo snorted lightly, disagreeing:
"That's not our concern. You have to trust the prince. If he dares to take action, he must be confident enough. Even if this war doesn't happen, there will definitely be some turmoil within the court. I heard that Helian Cong was so angry that he didn't even attend the morning court. This old guy's fiftieth birthday was really a frustrating one!"
"As the ruler of a nation, Helian Cong will not let this go after encountering such an unexpected incident at his birthday banquet, losing face and losing his envoys. Your Highness may have strategies, but once the situation gets out of control, the entire situation will be affected. Who can predict the outcome? As members of the royal palace, we are walking on thin ice, so we must not act rashly."
Listening to Xiyan talking about these things, Manluo suddenly felt bored:
"Alright, since you haven't washed up yet, I won't bother you. The prince went to the Grand Tutor's Mansion early this morning, so I have to take this opportunity to get some fresh air and relax."
Xiyan was still worried and reminded again:
"Don't cause any trouble out there. If you do, no one can save you!"
Manluo nodded as she walked towards the door:
"I know, you're so long-winded!"
Then he opened the door and disappeared outside like a gust of wind.
Xiyan looked at the door that was opened and then closed, her brows furrowed, and a sense of uneasiness suddenly arose in her heart.
