"So I don't want to marry you. Even if I just want to be a little maid around you in the future, at least I can see you every day, can't I?"
"Instead of sitting in the deep palace like a complaining woman waiting hard every day."
He didn't expect that she would say such a thing. He frowned slightly and didn't understand.
Because the men in this world have three wives and four concubines, not to mention countless concubines in three palaces and six courtyards.
Even his former mother imperial concubine loved her father so much that she didn't say that, "you, you girl are amazing!" finally, he had to say such a sentence. He didn't want to have so many concubines.
But he was still tangled in his heart.
He suddenly didn't know how to answer.
Seeing his hesitation, I knew what he was thinking. Lin Xi was not surprised. After all, it was really difficult for the ancients to accept, and she was not reluctant.
"Ah ran, I'm fine. I just want to be a maid beside you."
Seeing her like this, he felt very sad, but he seemed unable to say something for the time being, so he had to decide to wait until he came back, "OK, wait for me until I come back from the palace."
When the next day came, Mo Yiran dressed up and left with Lord Zhou.
Lin Xi had to wait quietly in the room, but she didn't come back until the afternoon. She couldn't help worrying more.
He walked back and forth in the room with an anxious face.
Finally, I heard something moving outside, but it was not Mo Yiran who came in. It was Xu bodyguard and Xu Feng.
Seeing him, Lin Xi's face was surprised, and then showed a happy look, "Xu, Xu bodyguard, are you okay? It's great."
Xu Feng nodded his head lightly, and then said solemnly, "well, fortunately, he survived. Don't say so much now. Let's leave here quickly. Something happened in the palace."
"What, something happened in the Imperial Palace, then, ah ran, didn't the fourth Prince have an accident?" no wonder I didn't see Lord Zhou coming back. It seems that something really happened.
Thinking of this, my heart was pulled up.
Although I was surprised to hear her call the name of the fourth prince, now is not the time to ask these questions, so I hurriedly urged, "now let's not say so much, let's go quickly."
But Lin Xi shook her head firmly, "no, I won't go. I'll find him. I can't leave like this at this time."
"But if you stay here, what else can you do besides causing trouble to the fourth prince? You are just a weak woman with no strength to bind chickens. If you are caught, you may become a bargaining chip for others to threaten him!"
Because I was worried, my voice couldn't help being louder.
Some hazy water mist appeared in a pair of beautiful eyes. He was right. He would indeed become a burden for Mo Yiran, but she had her thoughts in her heart.
"No, I'll wait for him here. If something really happens to him, I won't live."
"You, you man." Xu Feng suddenly didn't know what to say.
However, it is undeniable that he was moved and shocked by her feelings, but the fourth prince told her that he must protect her, so he approached her and stunned her when she didn't pay attention.
Looking at her little face full of tears, there was an awkward look on her face, "risk, offend." there was no way.
So he picked her up and hurried away from the Zhou house.
Not long after they left, the Zhou house was surrounded by heavy soldiers. Then they went in and began to look around. What scared the Zhou house was a flurry of chickens and dogs.
When Lin Xi woke up, he found himself in a strange place.
Thinking of what Xu Feng said to her not long ago, she quickly opened the quilt, sat up, got out of bed and went outside. She was a little confused when she saw the scenery outside. Is she in the farmhouse now?
When she was puzzled, Xu Feng's voice came from behind, "Miss Xi, are you awake?"
Turned and looked at him, with a worried look on his face, "Xu bodyguard, where is this? What's going on in the palace now?"
He put the firewood in his hand on the ground and said in a deep voice.
"No one knows the current situation of the imperial palace. It has been a day and a night. We have left the capital for a long time. Just take it here now."
"I'll find a way to inquire about the news."
He was worried and didn't know what to do. Seeing her like this, Xu Feng was uncomfortable. "Don't worry, the fourth Prince is more than that snobbish, so you'd better stay here."
"My responsibility is to look after you and protect you at the same time."
"Bodyguard Xu, in fact, I've always been curious. I don't think you look like an ordinary bodyguard." he gave her a mysterious feeling, and his every move was not like an ordinary bodyguard.
A little unfathomable.
Slightly drooping his eyes, thought for a moment, and explained to her, "in fact, I was not a palace guard, but I was saved by the fourth prince when I was chased by my enemies, so I promised to work for him for ten years."
"I can leave in about a year."
Lin Xi nodded. It turned out to be so. She said she couldn't tell how she looked at him. It turned out that his real identity was not a bodyguard.
It seems that it must be a Jianghu person. "Then your martial arts must be very high?" otherwise Mo Yiran won't let him protect her.
"Not so powerful, but enough to protect you," he said, taking all the firewood back to the kitchen.
Lin Xi also hurried to catch up with him, "then Xu bodyguard, can you tell me where we are now?"
But he just said in a deep voice, "as long as you know that we are safe now, those people can't find us."
After listening to this, Lin Xixi was somewhat discouraged. "What about Xu bodyguard and green peach? She came with you before. Do you know where she is now?"
Xu Feng shook his head slightly. "I don't know. We went together at that time, but later, after avoiding the danger, we separated again. Now I don't know where she is."
"But you should live well."
In this way, I was disappointed and looked down slightly. Then I turned and returned to the room.
Just sitting like that, my mind is full of Mo Yiran's things.
Until dinner, Xu Feng brought the food in, "eat something. If you are hungry, the fourth prince will blame me when he knows."
I looked back at the dishes on the table not far away. I was surprised, "I didn't expect you to cook?" I'm really a good man.
He knows both martial arts and cooking.
"It's just some simple dishes. Don't despise them. They're certainly not as delicious as chefs." it's starving to run outside all year round and can't cook.
But she can't eat these things now.
Seeing her idea, Xu Feng had to continue to persuade, "you'd better eat something, otherwise the fourth prince will worry when he knows."
Thinking that what he said was also right, he nodded, went to the table, picked up chopsticks and ate.
