"I'm not very sleepy. I want to watch for a while longer. Is Your Majesty sleepy?"
"I'm not sleepy yet."
Xiao Xieyun reached out and pulled Ying Xixi into his arms, then leaned against the head of the bed, acting as a human cushion for Ying Xixi.
Ying Xixi found a comfortable place to lean back and continued reading the storybook.
As she looked, she looked down and saw Xiao Xieyun's big, bony hands quietly reaching into her underwear.
Ying Xixi: “….”
"Your Majesty, you will affect me like this."
Perhaps knowing that Xiao Xieyun had her in his heart, Ying Xixi's tone was a little arrogant.
Xiao Xieyun gently rubbed the back of Ying Xixi's neck with his lips, and said in a low voice, "You watch yours, and I do mine. We won't interfere with each other."
Ying Xixi: “….”
With such a big hand fanning the flames, how could she still have the mind to continue reading the storybook?
She put down the book and reached out to pull Xiao Xieyun's big hand out of her underwear.
"Your Majesty, don't be like this. Some things should be handled with moderation."
Xiao Xieyun raised his eyebrows, put his arms around Ying Xixi's slender waist, and chuckled into her ear, "I haven't done anything yet, what are you thinking about?
Or...?”
Xiao Xieyun stretched out his voice, "You want it?"
He gently held Ying Xixi's hot earlobe in his mouth, his voice tender and soothing.
Ying Xixi felt as if her whole body had been electrocuted and she shuddered unconsciously.
"Your Majesty, you are turning the tables! I am thirsty and need some water."
After Ying Xixi finished speaking, she pushed Xiao Xieyun away, quickly got out of bed, ran barefoot to the table, sat down and poured herself some water to drink.
Xiao Xieyun looked at the little concubine who was about to flee in panic, and a smile appeared on the corner of his lips.
He stood up and wanted to hug his little concubine to prevent her from running around barefoot again.
But just as he took a step forward, a sound of breaking air came.
Xiao Xieyun saw out of the corner of his eye a sharp arrow flying in from the window, heading straight towards Ying Xixi!
He quickly stepped forward and pulled Ying Xixi into his arms, then with a flash of his body, he took her away from the arrow.
The arrow flew over and hit the wooden cabinet hard, and the tail of the arrow trembled wildly.
When Ying Xixi saw the arrow, her heart skipped a beat and cold sweat broke out on her back.
This arrow was obviously aimed at her.
Xiao Xieyun looked out the window with a serious expression, and then, two or three sharp arrows flew in from the window!
Xiao Xieyun hugged Ying Xixi and dodged directly, while calling for people to catch the assassin.
Soon, sounds of fighting were heard from outside the window and the door.
Xiao Xieyun protected Ying Xixi and took the time to comfort her, "Don't be afraid, everything will be fine."
Ying Xixi was a little slow to react just now, but now that she has come to her senses, she is not afraid, but very confused.
The arrow just now was obviously aimed at her.
So someone wants to assassinate her?
But why?
Her only enemies here are the Zhao family.
Unless someone is of the same ilk as the Zhao family and wants to kill her because she exposed the Zhao family's actions, to prevent her from exposing some more secrets that would implicate them!
People who are birds of a feather with the Zhao family...
A possibility flashed through Ying Xixi's mind, her pupils trembled, and she grabbed Xiao Xieyun's collar.
"Your Majesty! Send someone to check on the Zhao family in the prison!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Xieyun's thoughts raced as he realized that the assassin might have used a tactic of making a feint to the east and attacking in the west.
But before he could give orders to the guards, a guard came to report.
"Your Majesty! Someone's breaking into the prison! Zhao Yonggang has been taken away!"
Xiao Xieyun and Ying Xixi's expressions changed at the same time.
"Only Zhao Yonggang was taken away?! Did anyone go after the prison breakers?"
"Yes, only Zhao Yonggang was taken away. The prison breakers were five or six men in black. Our subordinates have already gone to track them down."
As soon as the guard finished reporting, the guard who was fighting with the assassin came to report.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me! The assassin has escaped! Someone is already chasing him."
Xiao Xieyun's face was gloomy. "Pass on my order. Close the city gates and do not allow anyone to leave! We must find the man in black and Zhao Yonggang!"
"yes!"
The two guards who came to report agreed and left immediately.
There were still several sharp arrows stuck in the wooden cabinet in the bedroom. Xiao Xieyun took out a handkerchief, wrapped it around his hand, and pulled the arrows out with force.
He looked at the arrow carefully and clearly saw the words "Lin Yue" engraved on the arrow shaft.
"Oh, it seems that Linyue Kingdom is declaring war on me!"
Ying Xixi looked at Xiao Xieyun's hand and saw the two words "Lin Yue".
She frowned, "Your Majesty, it was the people from Linyue Kingdom who broke into the prison and rescued Zhao Yonggang.
They deliberately shot arrows here to divert the guards' attention and make it easier for them to break into the prison."
Xiao Xieyun nodded, his expression gloomy, "It should be as you said. I underestimated Zhao Yonggang. I didn't expect him to be so important to Lin Yueguo. Lin Yueguo actually sent people to break the prison so quickly!
Even Lin Yueguo took advantage of the situation to openly challenge me!"
Ying Xixi also found it quite strange that Lin Yueguo would rather risk losing lives than save Zhao Yonggang.
From this point of view, Zhao Yonggang is too important to Lin Yueguo.
"Your Majesty, Zhao Yonggang has been rescued, but his wife is still in prison. Your Majesty, would you like to take his wife as a hostage?"
Xiao Xieyun shook his head, "That's not necessary, since Zhao Yonggang chose to leave on his own when he was rescued, rather than taking his wife with him.
This is enough to prove that his feelings for his wife are not deep enough to take her away and give her a way out.
