Let Ada look for you? No way! Why should he have the chance to see you more often instead of me? Lu Anyuan was also laughing at himself for being jealous for no reason, but he couldn't help thinking so.
"Well, if nothing else, can I leave?" Xu Yixing took a tentative step towards the door, and Lu Anyuan's gaze followed.
He took out a small square box from his waist and handed it to Xu Yixing.
"This is for removing bruises and scars. I'm sorry about your injuries..."
Xu Yixing was flattered. This meant she was allowed to leave. That was great! After taking the medicine, she tried pushing the door, and it opened.
"Yixing, take care of yourself."
Lu Anyuan said again behind him, Xu Yixing was thinking, isn't it just taking good care of Yi Yan's body? I know, I know, now I feel like an intruder standing between you two, it's so unfair!
Ah Da wasn't outside the door at all, but outside the courtyard gate further away. After all, the master didn't want him to know what was going on here, so it was better to stay away.
Hearing the noise, he hurried in to check and saw Miss Xu jumping out of the room, one foot deep and one foot shallow. There were injuries on her face and a red mark on her neck. It seemed that there were tears in her eyes.
Ah, this... When did His Highness become so violent?
"Second Miss, what happened to you?" Ada stretched out his hand, trying to support the staggering Xu Yixing.
Lu Anyuan stood at the doorway, watching her. When he saw Ah Da was about to touch Xu Yixing, he immediately stopped her: "Ah Da, come here!"
Ah Da stood up straight suddenly and ran to his master in three or two steps, but he didn't see that he was injured or anything. Then why did he call him so loudly just now?
When he turned around again, Miss Xu was gone.
"Your Highness, is there any clue?"
"Nothing. Go and tell my aunt to take care of me and pick a suitable time to go to the Xu Mansion and ask for marriage."
"Ah? But didn't you say the second young lady was fake?"
"I was mistaken. This is real, genuine." Lu Anyuan took out his purse this time and swallowed the whole bag of plums into his mouth. He grimaced because of the sourness.
"Um... that Miss Xu did show signs of disguise. Are you not going to care about that?"
"Who said I don't care? If I have to care, I have to prioritize. You go and propose marriage. Then I'll have Er come over later. I have something to tell him."
"yes."
"Also, go to Jingxi Temple tomorrow, no, tonight! You go and prepare it yourself and offer a ten-jin sea lantern to fulfill your vow."
Ada felt that the master's orders were not related to each other. Besides, the second prince's illness was not cured yet, so what was the point of making such a wish?
Siqin and Sihua were stunned when they saw Xu Yixing. How come he became like this after such a short while?
"Don't ask, don't talk, don't look. Just pretend you don't know and hurry back home." Xu Yixing jumped into the carriage and urged his family to leave quickly. If someone saw the injuries on his face, he wouldn't be able to explain them.
Hiss! Xu Yixing carefully touched the scar on his neck. It was too cruel, too brutal!
She had previously underestimated the silent Seventh Prince, but after today's confrontation, she realized he was a man of meticulous thought and exceptional martial arts skills. As expected, none of His Majesty's sons were easy to deal with.
Fortunately, he was on his side, otherwise, just because he recognized his identity, he could use it as a threat to force him and his father to do many things.
Thanks to Yi Yan!
This is what is called striking first to gain the upper hand. Although it is still unclear how Yi Yan is related to the Seventh Prince, he likes her, and this is Xu Yixing's greatest asset now.
Although Xu Yixing felt that it was a bit unkind to use his sister's lover in this way, he was already in this situation and had to move forward against the current. If he didn't move forward, he would die.
If he really wanted to shake up the Duke's Mansion in the future, he would probably have to put his life and property, as well as the life of the General's Mansion, at stake. How could he care about the feelings of a man from outside?
After returning to Xu's house, Si Hua went to the front yard to report first. If Gu knew that although she did not go, her deeds were spread at the banquet, she would probably be so angry that she would grow many wrinkles overnight.
This is exactly the effect I want. The more angry Mrs. Gu is, the more alienated she will be from Mrs. Gu. It will accumulate bit by bit, and when Mrs. Gu completely loses Mrs. Gu's trust, that will be the time for me to avenge Yi Yan!
In the room, Xu Yixing faced the mirror and wiped the wound bit by bit. She didn't dare to let Siqin come because it was too painful!
"Miss, was this injury of yours caused by the Seventh Prince?"
"Isn't it obvious?" The medicine he gave me was actually quite useful. It felt cool when applied and had a light fragrance. As expected, the things used by the royal family were good. It was a waste not to use them.
"Why? Is it because the young lady rejected him that he turned his back on her? Young lady, let's go find the master and file a complaint."
"It's such a small matter that you're already filing a complaint with the emperor. Are you too idle as a father to do anything?" Xu Yixing still feels more use for the Seventh Prince than hatred for him. After all, he has such a good human weapon, so let him get angry if he wants.
Seeing the scars on the young lady's face, Siqin couldn't understand why the Seventh Prince treated her like this. The strangest thing was that the young lady was not angry at all. Isn't this like the sun rising from the west!
"By the way, Siqin, do you know what happened between me and the Seventh Prince?"
"I don't know. I only know that you, young lady, have done him a favor, but I don't know anything else." Siqin thought that the young lady was going to tell her the story between them, but she didn't know that Xu Yixing also wanted Siqin to tell it. It's a pity that the two confused people didn't know.
"Okay, then you can continue to be confused. I'm going to rest first, don't bother me if there's nothing else."
The purpose of driving Siqin away was to let Yingjiu come out. Sure enough, after Siqin's footsteps faded away, Yingjiu fell down and knelt in front of Xu Yixing.
"I'm wrong. I failed to protect the young lady!" Ying Jiu certainly saw the hurt on Xu Yixing's face, but unfortunately he was hiding far away somewhere else at that time and didn't even dare to approach the gate of the courtyard.
"It's none of your business. It's my order. By the way, next time you meet A-Da and the others, you don't have to hide. It doesn't matter if you get discovered."
"Yes. Miss, do you want me to teach that man a lesson?"
"Please! I'm a prince, are you trying to kill yourself?" Xu Yixing rolled his eyes.
"The prince is also a human being. Any human being can be killed."
"Stop, stop. Our Xu family hasn't planned to rebel yet. If we have such an intention in the future, I will be the first to find you. Is there any news from Yingyi? Has anyone said that Xiaosui has been found?"
“No returns yet.”
