Chapter 389 I like it too much, I can't control myself

The Hongmen Banquet turned into a warning banquet. The first and second in command were like eggplants hit by frost, looking wilted.

No matter how dissatisfied they are in their hearts, they have to think twice before they dare to do anything.

After the dinner, Xiao Jinxuan sent a letter to Ling Feng, asking them to pass the news of the withheld tax money to the Xichuan Army as soon as possible.

Only when their interests are touched will those evil spirits become panicked.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw Xie Zhuoning who had just finished taking a shower and was sitting aside drying his hair. He walked over and took the towel naturally, "Why didn't you ask me to help you?"

When the man was drying his hair, he poured some of his inner strength into it. Not only did his hair dry quickly, but it also felt warm and extremely comfortable.

Xie Zhuoning squinted his eyes in enjoyment and chuckled, "This is just a small matter, so it won't bother His Royal Highness Prince Xuan, right?"

"As for that." Xiao Jinxuan said seriously with a straight face, "Your body has not recovered yet, you can't catch a cold again."

Xie Zhuoning sighed softly.

She could shoot four arrows with one hand, so how come she became so weak and unable to take care of herself in Xiao Jinxuan's eyes?

Well, since he is happy, he also enjoys his leisure time.

Xie Zhuoning happily enjoyed the attentive service of the great King Xuan, and asked casually, "Xiao Jinxuan, do you know He Wenjun?"

She had heard of this man's name, but she had lived in the capital in her previous life and didn't know much about these officials from other places.

Xiao Jinxuan happened to have dealt with He Wenjun when he was in the military camp.

"He Wenjun is a good martial artist, a master at charging into battle formations, and loyal to Duke Zheng, but he is a little too stubborn."

Xie Zhuoning frowned, "So he is still a tough guy? It seems that the methods used to deal with the leaders of the Green Forest Alliance may not work on him."

It is easy to kill He Wenjun. The key is how to get evidence from him of the collusion between officials and bandits over the years.

Once the evidence is in hand, Duke Zheng and Prince Yong will have no way to escape.

Xiao Jinxuan lowered his head slightly and looked at her with her chin supported, thinking seriously.

The crackling firelight illuminated her eyes, making them look bright and clear as if they had been washed with water. The heat also made her round and delicate face look rosy and fresh.

But she seemed unaware of how attractive she looked now, and she was still analyzing it logically.

"Since the conventional method cannot be used, then let's just do the opposite. Xiao Jinxuan, let me tell you..."

When she raised her head, she saw Xiao Jinxuan taking away the towel, and then he lay down against the light, swallowing all the words she said.

"I'll tell you later."

The candlelight flickers and the night is long.

…

The next day.

Xie Zhuoning woke up groggy and angry, wanting to beat up that unbridled guy.

Xiao Jinxuan admitted his mistake very well, "I'm sorry, I like it too much and I can't control myself."

As soon as he touched her, he went crazy and wished that every inch of her flesh and blood could become one with himself.

Xie Zhuoning looked at the dignified King Xuan with a pitiful expression on his face, but he couldn't help but feel soft-hearted.

"Hmph!" She immediately frowned and snorted coldly, expressing her attitude, fearing that she had been fooled by him again.

Xiao Jinxuan had no choice but to call Song Yuqiu.

As soon as Song Yuqiu entered the room, he saw Xiao Jinxuan sitting in the upper seat, drinking tea casually.

Even from a distance, one could feel the overwhelming aura blowing towards one's face.

Her heart was beating like a drum, and she thought to herself that she had been behaving herself recently, so she shouldn't have offended His Royal Highness Prince Xuan.

Or, for the sake of safety, she should call Sister Zhuoning to help her out?

Just as he was thinking, Xiao Jinxuan's voice rang out, "Come here, I have something to ask you."

Song Yuqiu had no choice but to walk over and said, "You...you go ahead."

Xiao Jinxuan looked solemn, "If someone makes you angry, what can you do to make you happy?"

"Ah?" Song Yuqiu opened his mouth in surprise, thinking he had heard it wrongly.

No, he looked so dignified and powerful, as if he could kill anyone at any time, but he just asked her such a question?

"Your Highness, are you kidding me?"

"Do you think I'm joking?"

"Haha, not really."

Song Yuqiu laughed awkwardly twice, and began to think of a possibility, "Then Your Highness Prince Xuan, you didn't make Sister Zhuo Ning angry, did you?"

"No." Xiao Jinxuan denied it calmly, "I'm asking you, if you are angry, how do you comfort me?"

Are you so stubborn?

Song Yuqiu suppressed his laughter and replied, "If someone else made me angry, then it's simple. Just give me ten carts of rare and precious medicinal herbs, and I won't be angry anymore!"

She has many ancient recipes, but she has never had the chance to try them because she can't find all the ingredients.

Xiao Jinxuan frowned slightly, obviously dissatisfied with this answer, "What else?"

"What else? You can give me silver, too. Who wouldn't be happy to see money? If you're not happy, it must be because the money you gave me was too little!"

What he said made sense, but Xiao Jinxuan had already turned over all the assets of Prince Xuan's Mansion and handed them over to Xie Zhuoning.

"What else?"

"Also...if there were 10 or 8 handsome men standing in front of me, stripping naked and letting me touch their abs, I would still be able to calm down. If there were 10 or 8 more beautiful women around me, my God, even if the other party and I had an irreconcilable hatred, I would choose to forgive him!"

With an excited heart and trembling hands, Song Yuqiu was extremely happy just thinking about that scene.

When Xiao Jinxuan thought of the scene of Xie Zhuoning hugging people left and right, his face suddenly turned dark, "How shameful!"

Song Yuqiu was frightened and came back to reality from her beautiful dream.

Then Xiao Jinxuan walked away with a cold look on his face.

She felt aggrieved. Wasn't it he who asked her to say that?

Xiao Jinxuan had angered his wife and didn't know how to appease her, so he was getting annoyed.

Then the second in command came over with a group of soldiers wearing armor and holding swords.

The leader raised his eyes and looked Xiao Jinxuan up and down. Seeing that Xiao Jinxuan didn't even have a decent follower, his expression suddenly became contemptuous, "You are the one who asked for a 20% tax?"

Xiao Jinxuan glanced at him indifferently, then looked away indifferently, and asked the second in command with his eyes: Who is this?

The second in command quickly explained, "Master, this is Commander Sun of the Xichuan Army. He is here today to transport this year's tax back. Look..."

Someone from the Xichuan Army?

Xiao Jinxuan narrowed his eyes and was not surprised, "You are quite quick."

As soon as he asked someone to spread the news, people from the Xichuan Army arrived.

But sending only General Sun was clearly not enough.

"Deduct the tax and ask He Wenjun to come and talk to me."

Those calm and composed words instantly broke down Commander Sun's defenses.

He is General He's most capable general and is the center of attention wherever he goes.

As a result, he was not even taken seriously by a bandit!

His expression suddenly turned fierce. "Who do you think you are? How dare you withhold taxes from the Xichuan Army? Today, I must take the taxes away. I must also teach you a lesson about the rules of conduct!"

As soon as the words fell, the officers and soldiers drew their weapons in unison.

Xiao Jinxuan was already in a bad mood, and his eyes narrowed immediately, like a gust of wind and rain, "You're looking for death!"
