Chapter 121 Are you attracted to her?
After the court was dismissed, Xie Tingzhou walked out of the Xuanhui Hall.
Li Jifeng was detained for a while by Emperor Tongxu, and was not caught up with by the Emperor until he reached Chengtian Gate.
"Walk slower, are you in a hurry to go back and pick up your little boy?"
Xie Tingzhou turned around and looked at him. What he said was half right. He was indeed anxious to go back to see the person, but whether he would be held in arms or not was still a question.
Li Jifeng finally caught up, cleared his throat, turned his head and asked in a low voice: "Was I handsome just now?"
Xie Tingzhou glanced at him and said, "Your father's 'shut up' is more handsome."
"How can you do this?" Li Jifeng said dissatisfiedly: "I am speaking for you."
"Why are you following me?"
Li Jifeng said, "Aren't you under house arrest? I was worried that you were too bored, so I went to your house to accompany you. Oh, by the way, you have fallen in love with a young man, and I have been living in your house for these days, so please give Shi Yu to me."
Xie Tingzhou suddenly stopped and squinted his eyes at Li Jifeng, "What did you say?"
Li Jifeng didn't notice it at all, and said to himself: "Shi Yu, don't you like it?"
"You're attracted to her?"
"Yeah...wait." Li Jifeng took a step back vigilantly. There was a hint of murderous intent on Xie Tingzhou's face.
He immediately realized that with Xie Tingzhou's pride and arrogance, even if he, Xie Tingzhou, didn't want some people, it would not be someone else's turn.
"No, no." Li Jifeng hurriedly explained, "Hey, don't stare at me like that, it's scary. Let's talk while walking, okay?"
Xie Tingzhou started to walk away, and Li Jifeng said, "I am attracted to him, but not because of him as a person, but because of his chess skills."
Xie Tingzhou was stunned, "You like her chess skills?"
Even Chen Yu's skill of stealing one of his moves when she loses three is actually appreciated by others. Is he blind?
Li Jifeng said: "It's meaningless for me to play chess with anyone. They either let me win on purpose, or they kill me like you and I can't fight back."
"But you know I love chess. One of my biggest wishes in life is to fight with others on the chessboard. I think Shi Yu is on par with me. What do you think? Lend him to me."
Xie Tingzhou: “No.”
Li Jifeng asked: "Why? But playing chess
already. "
"Because..." Xie Tingzhou paused because he had already seen the carriage of his own palace outside the palace gate.
Zhongbo and Changliu are here. Could something have happened in the palace?
Xie Tingzhou quickened his pace. Zhongbo saw him from afar and hurried to meet him.
"Your Highness."
Xie Tingzhou: "What's the matter?"
"Don't worry, Your Highness." Zhong Bo said, "It's like this. Somehow Shi Yu found out about the siege at Jiang Mansion yesterday. She was worried that Your Highness would be reprimanded by His Majesty, and she was restless at home. She was really worried, so she had to come to the palace gate to pick you up."
After Zhong Bo finished speaking, he turned his eyes and saw Chang Liu's stunned expression. He raised his hand and closed Chang Liu's chin without saying a word.
Xie Tingzhou looked towards the carriage and asked, "Is she in there?"
"I came here after breakfast and have been waiting for you." said Uncle Zhong.
Xie Tingzhou was full of thoughts and he quickly walked over and got on the carriage.
Li Jifeng was left aside and then he reacted and chased after him.
When he was getting on the carriage, Zhong Bo said, "Your Highness, this carriage is too small. How about..."
Li Jifeng waved his hand and said, "It's okay, just squeeze in."
At the palace gate, Jiang Lianzhi stood for a long time, looking in the direction where the carriage left.
"Xie Tingzhou is really going too far."
Jiang Lianzhi retracted his gaze, "He used Ayu to control me, so can't I use Ayu to control him?"
…
The carriage drove up the long street.
Uncle Zhong thought the carriage was too big and the distance between them was too far, so he specially changed to a smaller carriage today.
Xie Tingzhou looked at Li Jifeng, the uninvited guest opposite him, with an uneasy expression.
Chen Yu had been waiting for the whole morning, and now she was relieved to see Xie Tingzhou come out unharmed.
"This is a big deal, how did you resolve it?"
Xie Tingzhou looked at her and said, "One month of house arrest."
Shen Yu nodded, "If it's just a one-month confinement, then it's fine."
Xie Tingzhou's eyes moved twice, and he suddenly sighed.
"What's wrong?" Shen Yu asked hurriedly.
Xie Tingzhou sighed, "Emperor Tongxu severely reprimanded me in the court, saying that I was being unreasonable and told me to be careful with my words and actions in the future."
Li Jifeng was stunned.
It was clear that Xie Tingzhou had killed all the civil and military officials in the court with just his mouth. Even Emperor Tongxu couldn't do anything to him and couldn't say a single harsh word to him. Now he felt as if he had suffered a great injustice.
Li Jifeng raised his hand and pointed at Xie Tingzhou, "You clearly..."
Chen Yu: "Clearly what?"
"You still have to be careful with what you say and do." Xie Tingzhou looked at Li Jifeng dimly and repeated in a low voice.
Li Jifeng was not stupid, so how could he not hear the warning from Xie Tingzhou? He took a breath and said, "You were obviously scolded so badly that you couldn't even lift your head. But now you are so nonchalant as to brush off the grievances you suffered in the palace. As a brother, I feel sorry for you!"
Li Jifeng pounded his chest seriously.
Xie Tingzhou looked at him and wondered if this was too much.
But judging from the way Chen Yu looked at him, it seemed to be working quite well.
He finally discovered that although Chen Yu seemed strong, she was actually soft-hearted and would respond to soft words rather than hard ones.
Last night, he showed weakness for once, and she hugged him and comforted him for a long time.
What would the scene be like if Li Jifeng, this unpleasant thing, wasn't here at this moment?
Chen Yu lowered her eyes, feeling guilty.
If she had not insisted on going into the palace to gather information, she would not have fallen into Jiang Lianzhi's hands, and Xie Tingzhou would not have surrounded the Jiang Mansion, been confined to the palace, and been scolded.
Xie Tingzhou's heart skipped a beat. It was over. This was too much.
His intention was not to make her feel guilty, he just wanted to show weakness.
He touched her hand under the table and said comfortingly, "It's okay, it's just a few words, I didn't listen."
Li Jifeng looked at the two people opposite him and thought that Xie Tingzhou was still pretending. As a brother, he must help him out today!
He adjusted his tone and sighed, "Reprimanding in court, that's dignity, respect..."
Xie Tingzhou raised his foot.
"ah--"
Li Jifeng screamed in pain and covered his knee, "Why did you kick me?"
Xie Tingzhou asked in a sinister tone: "What did you just say, 'respect what?'"
Li Jifeng gritted his teeth and said nothing.
You are awesome, you coax people, but I get kicked. Where is justice?
