Chapter 135 Is Your Highness Afraid?
In the end, the emperor still wanted to give Lin Zhaoyue a few men.
Although Lin Zhaoyue refused, the emperor still did not give up.
Lin Zhaoyue said, "Is she as pretty as Mingxi? If not, forget it."
With just one sentence, the emperor was completely blocked.
If we compare her to mermaids, no one can be more beautiful than Ming Xisheng.
Lin Zhaoyue's house is finally quiet now, but she didn't expect her father to send a few more men to make things chaotic again.
Now Ming Xi is enough for her to bear.
Not to mention that there is also Xiao Tingye who she is on guard against.
But when she left, Lin Zhaoyue always felt that her father still had evil intentions...
The emperor narrowed his eyes, as if thinking about something.
"Your Majesty doesn't seem to be satisfied with Lord Xiao." Eunuch Hai bowed and said in a low voice.
The emperor said slowly, "It's not that I'm dissatisfied. If my daughter were just a princess, I would naturally be satisfied... But if she..."
He didn't continue talking.
But his expression had become a little solemn.
As she said, Xiao Tingye is indeed a man of great talent, capable of becoming a general or a prime minister.
But that's precisely why.
He was worried.
Will he become an obstacle and threat to her?
As soon as Lin Zhaoyue was pushed out of the Criminal Office by Mu Ying, she was ready to get up and go directly back to the sedan chair.
Her injuries had almost healed in the past two days, and she was able to move around without any problems.
I was just pretending to be seriously ill today.
After all, the news that she was seriously injured had spread over the past two days, so it was hard for her to explain why she suddenly recovered.
However, as soon as she stood up, she saw Xiao Tingye waiting in front.
He was dressed in an official robe, and his figure was as tall and graceful as a pine tree, giving him a somewhat elegant and graceful look.
After ups and downs in the court in the past few years, he has shed the fierce murderous aura he had when he returned from the battlefield, and replaced it with a restrained and deep majesty.
However, the martial spirit that permeated his bones and the murderous spirit tempered in the fighting on the battlefield never diminished from him.
This is why everyone fears and respects him.
She suddenly thought of Xiao Tingye's final ending in the original plot.
He was pierced through the heart by arrows and died under the siege of the protagonists.
He was such a proud man, a man who could leave a significant mark in the history of any dynasty...but in the end he became a victim of the plot.
What would he do if he could predict his own ending in advance?
As she was thinking, she suddenly became absent-minded for a moment.
When Xiao Tingye saw Zhao Yue stand up, the lines of his lips curled up, as if with a hint of mockery.
But when she suddenly looked at him so intently, the curve of his mouth froze in place.
There was also a glimmer of starlight in those deep and cold eyes, and his whole body seemed to be half frozen, motionless.
[One look controlled the villain]
【I didn’t even get an A】
[The villain seems to be attracted by the princess, and his eyes have changed]
Lin Zhaoyue came back to her senses and inadvertently withdrew her gaze.
He suddenly spoke, "There is a small path from the Criminal Department to the Princess's residence. Your Highness is ill, and I wish to escort the Princess back to her residence."
There were no honorifics in this statement.
The phrase "I think" is a statement of the minister's duty, but it is clearly a naked confession of his true feelings.
He said he wanted to!
[Old Xiao, is this a straight shot? ]
[Small path! No one will see, so can I take you home?! Aa ...
[Wow, ambiguity makes people suffer so much~~]
[Can't find evidence of love~~]
Oh my god, I sang it all out.
His eyes fell on her intently, and he just stood there, as if he had already made the decision for her "without authorization" and knew that she would go with him.
Lin Zhaoyue pursed her lips and said, "How could I dare to trouble Lord Xiao to escort me? After all, Lord Xiao has ulterior motives towards me."
He said nothing, just looked at her.
Those eyes, like a cold pond, reflected only her shadow.
Lin Zhaoyue was quite straightforward.
She wanted to test Xiao Tingye's reaction.
His gaze lingered on her for a long time, and suddenly he curled his lips slightly, his voice lowered to a very low level: "Are you afraid, Your Highness?"
A tentative word, but with a hint of temptation, it stirs people's hearts.
The autumn wind suddenly blew, and the hair and clothes of the two were blown into the air.
The two of them locked gazes for a long time.
He had been waiting for her answer.
Those eyes that seemed as calm as a cold pond were like a whirlpool, tempting to delve into but full of danger.
She could sense that the ferocious beast dormant deep within his body had long since awakened, now crawling forward, seemingly docile.
In fact, his pupils always followed her every subtle movement, as if even the trembling of her eyelashes could not escape his greedy gaze.
Any action of hers would be enough to trigger his tense critical point.
【The princess knows? 】
[Actually, I already realized that the princess knew...]
[Will the princess hate Lao Xiao? If the princess really hates Lao Xiao, I'll go crazy!]
Don't be afraid, Xiao will go crazy before you do.
[Will the princess be scared? ? What should I do? I'm just as nervous as Lao Xiao.]
[Until now, Lao Xiao has never done anything bad to the princess, so the princess shouldn't be disgusted.]
[Princess Wuwuwu, don't be afraid. Lao Xiao will change. He's very easy to teach!]
Lin Zhaoyue raised her eyebrows slightly, "Standing so far away, do you want Yinchuan to escort me back home?"
For a moment, fireworks seemed to burst out in his eyes, and his tense and cold face softened in an instant.
Even if he no longer showed his joy, he would still endure and suppress it.
But now all of that was gone, leaving only the joy that could not be concealed.
yes……
Can't hide it.
Even Mu Ying noticed it.
Just now he clearly thought that Lord Xiao was too scary.
There was no way to tell what Lord Xiao was trying to do just now.
But now I suddenly feel happy.
She couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Lin Zhaoyue actually had something to ask him.
When she came out, she was not surprised to see Xiao Tingye waiting for her.
But just now she was deliberately testing him.
It seems like the cards are clear between them.
Xiao Tingye had already put his evil intentions towards her in front of her.
The honesty surprised her a little.
But it also inexplicably gave her a little more trust.
Yeah, it should be a scary thing.
But his honesty made her feel much more at ease.
He asked her if she was scared?
She is not afraid.
What she feared was that they would be swept up in the plot and become people who were no longer in control of themselves.
[I'm almost scared to death, please stop provoking us.]
【I am here to learn how to train a dog like a princess】
[See, this is how Lao Xiao was tamed by the princess and started barking]
[Who understands! I almost thought my CP was about to end! ]
After Lin Zhaoyue finished speaking, the figure walked forward and stopped beside her.
The corners of her lips lifted slightly, and she nodded: "Master Xiao, please."
Xiao Tingye stared at her for a moment, as if he wanted to burn her skin in his sight.
His voice was hoarse and low: "Your Highness, please."
