Chapter 17: I am tired, Your Highness, please kneel down and rest
A hint of surprise flashed across Xiao Chen's gentle eyes.
His eyes fell on Qin Yinyao's neck with concern. After confirming that there were no marks, he asked, "Why is Miss like this?"
Chixin: “???”
Isn't the point that the young lady can see the City God?!
etc!
He is a close official and personal guard of the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace, and his rank is not low, so why does he call her a young lady all the time?
But I soon felt relieved.
The prince always calls him "young lady". He is the prince's subordinate, so what's so noble about him?
etc!
The young lady can see the City God?!
"It's nothing. I'm alone in the Marquis' Mansion. Since I've decided not to endure it anymore, I still need a helper for safety and convenience. Let's go to the City God Temple and ask the City God for help."
Qin Yinyao said lightly as if it was a matter of course: "But the old thief City God doesn't want to see me, and I can't destroy his temple."
"I'm already annoyed, and it's even more annoying when I can't get help. I might as well just hang myself in front of the City God."
"Even if I die, it's not good to drag someone down with me, but it can't be like there's no impact at all, right?"
She said it with great confidence.
Xiao Chen nodded in agreement: "The evil ghost Hua Niang, is she the helper given by the City God?"
"That's about right." Qin Yinyao ate a piece of dessert and said, "I chose it myself from the notebook."
Her golden finger can only be triggered when she sees a person. She can't ask the City God to call out all the ghosts.
I can only work harder myself.
Chixin: “???”
I chose it myself...in a book? A book? The Book of Life and Death?!
"Can evil spirits also be recorded in the Book of Life and Death?" He looked at Hua Niang with a complicated expression.
Hua Niang retorted, "Before the evil spirit turned into a ghost, wasn't it a human?"
Chi Xin: "That... makes sense, but there's no need to be so harsh."
"I am a fierce ghost, a fierce ghost!" Hua Niang glared, her nails almost digging into Chi Xin's face: "What do these two words mean? Don't you understand?!"
If the evil ghost is not vicious, what is vicious?
Xiao Chen watched Hua Niang and Chi Xin quarreling quietly.
With one hand supporting his chin, he tapped his fingers rhythmically on the stone table with the other hand: "This temper can protect the young lady."
Like observation, more like scrutiny.
"My master has such an infuriating mouth, and he still needs my protection?" Hua Niang was glaring at Chi Xin and retorted subconsciously.
Xiao Chenfeng narrowed his eyes slightly, but his smile remained gentle: "Humans and ghosts have different paths. If the young lady does not need your protection, you should not stay."
Hua Niang's soul inexplicably tightened, and she felt a sense of oppression that she had never felt since becoming a ghost.
Oh, no, after becoming a fierce ghost, I felt this kind of oppression from Qin Yinyao.
"I was just joking. Even if my soul were to be scattered, I would definitely protect my master."
A man who knows the times is a good ghost. Hua Niang immediately softened her tone and stood obediently behind Qin Yinyao.
If it weren't for the fact that her figure was somewhat translucent under the moonlight, she would really look like an ordinary maid.
"Your outfit is too conspicuous. If someone notices, it will be bad for the young lady's reputation." Xiao Chen was satisfied, and his coldness disappeared. "Change it."
Hua Niang: "..."
Is it that she doesn’t want to change? This red dress is her evil spirit!
It is the symbol and face of her evil spirit.
Xiao Chen glanced over.
Hua Niang knelt down and said, "Yes, I'll remember that."
"Since the young lady was able to see the true form of the City God, even if she didn't have a special fate, she must have had a wonderful encounter. And with her is my servant Hua Niang."
Xiao Chen got back to the point: "In this case, my identity as the Astronomical Observer doesn't count as favoritism."
"Your Highness, what I said is true. What if I don't see the City God, don't have any adventures, and don't have Hua Niang by my side?" Qin Yinyao stared at him.
She has a bit of rebellious nature towards the Dragon Prince in front of her, who seems to have not drunk the soup but is pretending to be a little bit stubborn with her.
Xiao Chen chuckled: "Then we can only get married sooner, and I will personally protect the young lady."
"Your Highness, do you mean to keep me in the East Palace?" Qin Yinyao asked provocatively.
Xiao Chen drank tea elegantly, his gentle and beautiful phoenix eyes darkened.
Like the dark abyss beneath the calm blue sea, it is dangerous yet tempting to explore.
"I would like to hide my beauty in a golden cage, but I am worried that the young lady will not like it, so I can only think about it and give up." He said.
Chixin: “???”
Chi Lian’s sky...collapsed.
Hua Niang: “???”
The couple played more extravagantly than each other.
Qin Yinyao was both angry and amused: "The golden house is no longer a golden house, you just want to go straight to the cage, right?"
"Whether it's a cage or not, remember to wrap a layer of cotton gauze inside, with thick cotton inside and thin gauze outside, so as not to hurt the skin." Hua Niang gave sincere advice.
Chi Xin tilted his head and looked at her, sneering in a complicated and strange way: "You're still giving me advice?"
Xiao Chen rubbed his two fingers subconsciously: "That makes sense."
Chixin: "!!! Your Highness! You really considered it!"
Xiao Chenfeng glanced at Qin Yinyao with a half-smile: "It's better to be prepared. I always feel... that it will be useful."
Chixin: “???”
The Chilian people were all dumbfounded.
who is he?
Where is he?
Where's that upright, polite, and gentle gentleman in his family? !
Qin Yinyao, who wanted to get married with Wan Yidiandian, felt inexplicably guilty.
However, his guilty conscience made him rebellious, and he stiffened his neck and said shamelessly: "Remember to prepare a large set, I will give it to His Highness."
"Okay." Xiao Chen agreed readily: "When does Miss want it? Do you need a matching cage?"
Qin Yinyao: "..."
This guy is even more difficult to deal with than when he was in heaven!
When you were in heaven, you still had some concerns about your reputation, but now you've completely let go of your nature, right?!
"I'm tired, Your Highness, please kneel down and greet me." Qin Yinyao forced a smile, rolled her eyes, turned around and left.
Ninety-nine percent certain that this guy didn’t drink the soup!
The remaining 0.1% of doubt is that he is too shameless!
She wants to complain!
Waiting to go back to heaven!
Chi Xin, Chi Lian, and even Hua Niang, who was a fierce ghost, were all stunned.
The young lady is tired, Your Highness, please kneel down and rest.
Very niche text.
Qin Yinyao didn't care. This was not the only time she had been disrespectful. If she could live, she would live. If she couldn't, she would die.
Everything is fine.
Xiao Chen stood up with a smile: "Okay, Miss, I will take my leave first."
Chi Xin, Chi Lian, Hua Niang: “???”
What a reversal of Tiangang.
The master and his two servants entered the mansion through the wall, left the mansion through the wall, and returned to the East Palace.
Before going to bed, Xiao Chen stopped Chi Xin who was about to go out and said, "Go to the Si Tian Jian early tomorrow. Don't implicate the innocent in the Marquis' Mansion's affairs, and don't let the culprit off lightly."
Chixin nodded in agreement.
He turned around and prepared to leave, but suddenly turned back: "Your Highness, there is something I don't understand."
"Your Highness is so protective of the young lady, why don't we just show up and put pressure on her when the Astronomical Observer is here?"
Instead, you have to hide in the dark and observe?
I have to make another trip tomorrow to put pressure on you.
Isn't this a waste of time?
"This lady and I are engaged. If I were to show up in broad daylight, it would seem I'm biased towards her, and people would inevitably wonder what she said or did in front of me."
Xiao Chen patiently explained, "It would damage the reputation of the young lady."
If I don't help the guard who grew up with me to solve his doubts, he will have to trouble me in the future.
Chi Xin's confusion was resolved, but it didn't seem to be: "Your Highness... I'm sorry, but what difference does it make if I go and put pressure on you tomorrow?"
Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows and chuckled: "The Crown Prince's personal guards, out of sympathy for the Crown Prince's diagnosis and treatment of the young lady, acted privately. What does this have to do with me? And what does this have to do with the young lady?"
Chixin's mouth twitched.
