Chapter 100 Stop hitting me, I’m afraid he’ll lick your hand!!
When she said this, the subtitles were blocked.
She didn't know what would happen if they heard it.
Don't dare to take risks.
She was just asking casually.
After all, nothing supernatural has ever happened to me.
Who would believe it?
But unexpectedly, Xiao Tingye did not hesitate at all, "I believe it."
His answer without hesitation made Zhao Yue stunned for a moment.
"If Your Highness knew the fate of you and me... then I would be curious about what the fate of Your Highness and me would be." His hoarse voice was a little low, with curiosity and temptation.
Lin Zhaoyue's mind immediately flashed back to the original storyline of Xiao Tingye, whose subtitles she had watched countless times before. How he had gone mad and imprisoned her, how he had humiliated her, and how she had become his forbidden lover...
She turned her eyes away. "Why do you believe this? Your life is in your own hands. Can a single sentence decide what will happen to you and me?"
Xiao Tingye looked at Lin Zhaoyue for a long while, his eyes seemed to be able to see into her heart.
He deliberately dragged his words out, "In your Highness's opinion, could it be that I have done something...unspeakable to you?"
Lin Zhaoyue's heart skipped a beat. She said coldly, "I just said it casually, and you believe it?"
Xiao Tingye's current state and tone made her feel that even if she told him that he had done something to her, he would be able to accept it happily?
It was as if he knew he might do those things.
It was this perception that gave her a sense of crisis.
Xiao Tingye stared at her and said word by word, "Your Highness, I believe everything you say."
Lin Zhaoyue finally propped herself up and sat up straight.
"I just happened to send spies to Xiling a while ago," Xiao Tingye suddenly said. "I was originally going to investigate whether there were any unusual movements in Qi, which borders Xiling. Unexpectedly, I discovered... a secret in Xiling."
Lin Zhaoyue pressed on: "What secret?"
Xiao Tingye continued, "Your Highness should remember that Daxia has long issued a decree that all minerals within the territory belong to the imperial court, and no one is allowed to mine privately."
Lin Zhaoyue frowned, "So what?"
Xiao Tingye glanced at Zhao Yue and said, "My spies, while in Xiling, accidentally discovered that Marquis Xuanping was secretly mining iron ore."
"What?" Lin Zhaoyue's expression was cold. "Iron ore? Why didn't you report this?"
Its evil ambition in mining iron ore is obvious.
What can be done with iron? Nothing but weapons!
She also sent people to Xiling, but did not find out anything about it.
This shows that Marquis Xuanping was very cautious, and this matter must have been planned for a long time.
Xiao Tingye pursed his lips, his voice slightly cold, "Your Highness, have you forgotten that Xiling is the fiefdom of Marquis Xuanping? Unauthorized iron mining is a serious crime, tantamount to treason. Without actual evidence, accusing him of illegally mining iron in Xiling... will only incur Marquis Xuanping's displeasure."
"Furthermore, Your Highness probably doesn't know that the people of Xiling have more than just respect for Marquis Xuanping."
[Oh my god! I was wondering where Lu Chenzhou got all those troops. They need to be fed and equipped! It turns out the Marquis of Xuanping has been mining for a long time!]
[This kind of thing isn't even mentioned in the book! But to complete the plot logic, mining and training are definitely necessary!]
[And what Lao Xiao said is correct. The original text does say that the father and son of Xuanping Hou are popular and very influential in Xiling.]
[There is also a saying that the people of Xiling only know about Xiling, but not about Xia.]
Lin Zhaoyue's face turned cold.
It seems that what Xiao Tingye said is true.
She said, "Then, according to your opinion, how should this matter be handled?"
Xiao Tingye didn't answer her question. Instead, he stared into her eyes and curled his lips. "I have told Your Highness such important news. I wonder...what reward does Your Highness have?"
Lin Zhaoyue frowned and looked at him for a moment.
Suddenly he raised his hand and slapped him.
“Bang!”
Although the force is not great, it is crisp enough.
Lin Zhaoyue looked at the dazed Xiao Tingye and said calmly, "Is that enough?"
【Not enough, more】
【Hahahahahahahahaha, did the princess know something? 】
[You're still no good, Big Villain! Is it enough for the princess to hit you? Why don't you lick her hand?]
[Old Xiao, there's something wrong with your eyes, hahahaha]
Xiao Tingye narrowed his eyes, and a ripple appeared in his deep gaze.
The curve of his mouth deepened, and he spoke each word very slowly, as if kneading the other person's heart bit by bit: "Thank you, Your Highness, for the reward."
Every word she heard made her feel uncomfortable, and a blush crept onto her face.
But he said calmly: "Yeah."
Xiao Tingye looked at her for a long while with a hint of a smile in his eyes.
His eyes were so hot that she didn't know where to look.
After a while, he suddenly stood up and slowly walked outside.
Lin Zhaoyue looked at his back and frowned.
He suddenly stopped and said softly, "I'll go get some firewood. It's nearby. If you need anything, just knock on the stone wall with the nearby stone. I'll be back soon."
After leaving this instruction, he walked out.
But Lin Zhaoyue's gaze fell on his back.
Countless bloodstains were printed on the white undergarment, the disorder was shocking...
These injuries...
[As expected, I said, there’s no way the villain wouldn’t be injured.]
[Yes, the villain was holding the princess as she fell. The princess had few injuries, so it must be because the villain protected her well.]
Although Lao Xiao was in good health, it was impossible for him to not get hurt at that height, but he was only concerned about the princess.
[He was holding the princess the whole time, so the wound must have torn.]
[Wow, am I the only one who thinks Lao Xiao’s explanation is so heartwarming? He was worried that the princess would be scared alone, so he went out of his way to comfort her.]
Lin Zhaoyue closed her eyes.
She was afraid that because of their interpretation, she would develop an inappropriate fondness for Xiao Tingye.
But she also understood that he was indeed injured in order to protect herself.
She slowly opened her eyes and looked in the direction where Xiao Tingye had left, her gaze slightly narrowed.
Xiao Tingye...
Do you really want to do those things to me...
On the fourth day after Lin Zhaoyue fell off the cliff.
Yinchuan and Fengmian found them almost at the same time.
When they arrived, Lin Zhaoyue's health had recovered a lot and she could barely walk.
When Feng Mian and Mu Ying came in excitedly, they were both stunned when they saw Lin Zhaoyue with disheveled clothes almost leaning on Xiao Tingye.
Then he quickly retreated.
After they got out, they saw Yinchuan, who looked calm at the entrance of the cave, and they gritted their teeth.
"Did you let us in on purpose?"
Yinchuan crossed his arms and said, "No, it was you two who insisted on rushing in to find your princess."
Mu Ying snorted coldly: "Then why don't you go in?"
Yinchuan didn't say anything, just raised his chin, looking mysterious.
[Yinchuan: Too much talk brings tears]
[Hahahaha, that's because Yinchuan was beaten up before for disturbing the villain and the princess.]
[Yinchuan: This is all based on experience]
[Why don't you three get together? Living a good life is more important than anything else.]
Why do I feel like Yinchuan is a little bit sinister?
[With such a perverted master, Yinchuan looks like a sunny boy]
