Xuanyuan Chen turned to Xie Qingrong's other side and held onto Xie Qingrong's small white hand, carefully trying to coax her, "A Rong, don't be angry. It was indeed something that I had not thought about. I promise that there will never be a next time. "
Xie Qingrong looked at Xuanyuan Chen's cautious appearance, but actually had already started to soften. However, due to face, she had to let out a cold snort. Just as she was about to say that she forgave him, she suddenly realized that something was wrong.
He said with a cold smile, "Good God, Xuanyuan Chen, you actually hid such a huge matter from me?"
Finishing his words, he turned around and left.
Xuanyuan Chen immediately followed along, but Xie Qingrong's face was filled with a cold smile as she angrily left, causing Xuanyuan Chen to not dare to get too close to her, and to only be able to protect her from afar. Even though he was well aware that A Rong did not need his protection at all.
Xuanyuan Chen followed Xie Qingrong all the way out of the General's Estate, and arrived at the side of the city's moat. However, the moment Xie Qingrong turned around, she disappeared behind a tree, and before Xuanyuan Chen could even react, he realized that he had lost someone.
Just as he was hesitating, a gust of cold wind blew from his neck, bringing with it the unique fragrance of a woman he was familiar with.
Xuanyuan Chen closed his eyes and allowed the sleeve arrow on his wrist to move its blade close to his neck without any resistance.
Xie Qingrong sneered as she looked at the man in front of her who had closed his eyes, as if she wanted to hand over her life to her. Her handsome facial features, slightly perked up his phoenix eyes, and a trace of peerless beauty leaked out from the corner of his eyes.
"Heh." Xie Qingrong laughed lowly, and said with endless ridicule, "Do you think I really don't dare to kill you?" The blade cut into the flesh of the neck, leaving a little blood.
In the darkness, the blood on the back of the saber was suffused with a cold glow, giving off an inexplicably twisted sense of beauty.
When the blade was halfway in, Xie Qingrong realized that she could not even move, and said with a cold face: "Open your eyes."
Xuanyuan Chen opened his eyes obediently. Actually, he felt like his throat had been cut open a little. He was also making a bet in his heart that A Rong would not be willing to part with him and wouldn't really harm him.
Sure enough, she couldn't move. This time, she won. But why was it that there wasn't any happiness in his heart? Instead, there was a bit of indescribable sadness.
Xie Qingrong said with a cold face: "Are you satisfied now?"
With that, he retrieved the blade from the sleeve arrow's body, reached his hands out and turned around with a cold expression, not wanting to look at Xuanyuan Chen's angry face again.
Xuanyuan Chen felt as if his heart was being twisted by a knife. He hugged Xie Qingrong from behind and rested his head on Xie Qingrong's shoulder, his voice low and full of regret, "A Rong, I'm sorry. I won't hide anything from you in the future."
Xie Qingrong's heart had actually already softened a little, but when she thought of how Xuanyuan Chen had concealed such a huge matter from her, she became extremely angry. Although it was easy for her to find out about these things, she chose to trust Xuanyuan Chen more.
"I thought we could trust each other." Xie Qingrong also lowered her voice.
"A Rong, I do not intend to hide it from you, I just did not expect you to know about it so quickly." Xuanyuan Chen carried Xie Qingrong from the back. She could not see Xie Qingrong's expression, but she could guess that right now, she should be wearing a cold face with eyes filled with condensed ice.
"Heh." Xie Qingrong sneered and said: "You probably didn't think that I would actually guess it to such an extent. Xuanyuan Chen, I am not as foolish as you think. "
"Yes." Xuanyuan Chen's low voice sounded by his ear.
Xie Qingrong broke free from Xuanyuan Chen's embrace, turned around, crossed her arms over her chest, and stared straight at Xuanyuan Chen with his sharp eyes, "Lin Mu approached the side branch young miss of the Ye Family, did you instruct him?"
"Yes." Xuanyuan Chen did not try to explain and directly admitted it.
"You should know that the reason why Changge held the Summer Feast today was because she wanted to teach that side branch of the Ye Family a lesson. You should also know that the Miss Ye did not have the chance to join the Summer Feast. The only one who could participate was Ye Ningyu. Because Chang Ge couldn't find trouble with the Miss Ye, he could only find trouble with Ye Ningyu.
You understand Ye Ningyu's personality, so it's impossible for her to not have face and tell her father about this matter. Therefore, she will only take revenge on Chang Ge herself, but everything has been settled well, so that Chang Ge won't be in danger, and she can also frame Ye Ningyu. Yes and no? "
"Yes." Xuanyuan Chen replied.
Xie Qingrong said with a cold face: "What if your plan doesn't work, and Zhang Ge gets hurt?"
"I will not allow that to happen." Xuanyuan Chen said.
"Heh." Xie Qingrong sneered, "Could it be that you have also been the one to push the matter of the Prime Minister Changsun? I don't believe that Prime Minister Changsun would be able to lure a snake out of its cave so easily.
Xuanyuan Chen suddenly smiled and said with a light smile: "A Rong has even guessed at this step? I have really underestimated A Rong. "
Xie Qingrong closed her eyes, as if she was resigned to her fate, and said helplessly: "If my guess is not wrong, from the moment Feng Ya Pavilion was set ablaze, you have already stepped into the chess game, right? Your goal has never been that position, but Xuanyuan Jing and the Imperial Consort Ye.
Xuanyuan Chen reached out and pulled Xie Qingrong into his embrace, but Xie Qingrong did not resist, and allowed him to hug her. Xuanyuan Chen inhaled a deep breath of the unique fragrance off Xie Qingrong's body, the corner of his mouth exposing an intoxicated smile, as he buried his head into Xie Qingrong's neck.
Sneering, he continued, "I always knew that A Rong was very smart, but I never expected him to be this smart. Indeed, I have never had any ambition regarding that position. I only wanted to settle this with my own hands, with Xuanyuan Jing and the Imperial Consort Ye. I want to take care of them even in my dreams, but I can't do it for them. I want them to have a taste of what it means. "
Xie Qingrong patted Xuanyuan Chen's back lightly, the anger in his heart had almost disappeared. It was not that Xuanyuan Chen was hiding this from her, it was just that Xuanyuan Chen was hiding this from her.
However, she should have believed in him even more. She believed that he could do it. He believed in this man's astute planning and every step he took.
"When we have time, let's go visit your royal brother together." Come to think of it, I'm about to become your wife, but I haven't even seen your royal brother yet. " Xie Qingrong said softly.
"Okay, after I complete Imperial Father's request, I will take you to see Brother Huang." Xuanyuan Chen tightened the arm that was holding Xie Qingrong, and hugged Xie Qingrong tighter and tighter.
Xie Qingrong was already a little breathless, but she still did not stop Xuanyuan Chen's actions.
She should have thought of this matter a long time ago, but she wasn't so slow.
"Right, I feel that this plan is feasible, but not perfect enough." Xie Qingrong said.
Xuanyuan Chen raised his eyebrow, and asked: "Does A Rong have any brilliant ideas?"
