C77 Sorry

However, Xiao Yi Xiu stopped him, "There is no need to be so flamboyant, let the dark guards secretly look for him. When they find him, they must be courteous and not force him, and there is no need to mention the fire in the medicine garden. Remember, no matter when you find it, you must immediately report it. "

"Yes." Solewind agreed.

"Order people to watch over the medicine garden. We cannot leave even a single inch tonight."

After that, Xiao Yi Xiu ordered everyone to disperse, while he himself followed Gu Qing to the back.

When they arrived at the fork in the road, Gu Qingli felt that he was still following them. She couldn't help but turn around in bewilderment. "Your highness, did you take the wrong path?"

"I'll go to your room tonight."

Gu Qingli widened her eyes. No wonder he had even sent Suifeng away. She was actually thinking about this. She immediately rejected her request. "If Your Highness wants someone to serve her, why not go to Lady Jia's Moon Parasol Pavilion? She's been working so hard tonight, so she hopes that Your Highness can stay the night …"

"She's working so hard tonight to plan this fire, I'm afraid."

Gu Qingli was speechless as she stared at him. Under the cold moonlight, his face seemed even paler, like carved jade. Her eyes were especially cold.

She thought for a moment. "For tonight's matter, the Prince might just have been thinking too much. After all, he didn't see anyone around when the guards ran into the water. I heard that only the cat came out of the burning house."

"Yes or no, it's too early to say."

While talking, the two of them arrived at Gu Qing Li's Feng Ling Xuan. They saw Yu Ying looking towards the courtyard entrance, seeming to be waiting for them.

"It's late at night, are you still waiting outside?" Gu Qingli was a bit surprised.

Yu Ying smiled humbly and gently, "This is my duty."

After entering the room, Xiao Yi and Yu Ying went to wash up. It looked like they were staying for the night.

Gu Qingli was anxious. She recalled the night he shared a bed with her, and then remembered the scene when he forcefully kissed her in the palace. Her heart was a mess.

Previously, he didn't have any fear, but now that the poison in his body had been dispelled, he felt some misgivings.

"Esteemed wangfei, why aren't you coming over to help this king undress?"

Gu Qingli met his gaze and quickly came to her senses. "Your highness hasn't bathed yet, how about I let Yu Ying go …"

"What time is it?" Moreover, today we did what Miss Li Yue said and used Chinese medicine to steam it for an hour. We've already had a bath. " He was a little impatient, and continued to stare at her.

In the past, she could rely on his germaphobia to think that he wouldn't dare to touch her, but now that confidence had vanished from that kiss, she suddenly thought of a reason. "Prince, I can't go today. Uh, that …"

The coldness in Xiao Yixiu's eyes deepened as he silently unbuttoned his shirt and looked at her coldly. This sort of indifference was completely different from his usual indifference.

"What? Are you afraid This King will use force against you?"

Before she could reply, he had already said coldly, "With this body of yours, it's impossible for me to make a move against you."

Gu Qingli's face suddenly turned red for some reason when she heard him speak so frankly. She shifted her gaze and subconsciously looked out the window. When she had first arrived at the prince's mansion, the Dark Guards hadn't left her room, but she had seen them before.

"Stop looking." Suddenly, he reached out his hand and pulled them both down onto the bed. His cold breath came close and whispered, "There won't be anyone staying close to this duke's room all the time. I can't let the dark guards see my imperial concubine, right?"

"You … "Shameless!" Gu Qing Li raised her hand to slap him, but he stopped her.

She knew that although his hand movements were quick, it was powerless to stop it. If she were to suppress it with force, he would not be able to stop it. However, her palm remained in midair, unmoving by him.

"Princess." His voice suddenly became slow and gentle, even to the point that it had a few hints of … Maybe it was just her imagination.

"Did you have fun shopping with Ah Yan today?"

"Of course I'm happy." "Half of her was angry with him, and the other half was true. She withdrew her hand and rubbed her wrist, which didn't hurt, to ease the awkwardness." All day long, you've been trapped in your residence, unable to take even half a step out of it. It's rare for you to be out for a breather, how can you not be happy? "

"Is it mainly because of the elegant King Chen beside him?" He was a little cynical, and seemed sour.

"He's a lot more emotional than you."

He didn't say anything. His hand rested on her cheek and slowly slid down. She thought he would suddenly be strangling her again, but she felt that he was only gently unbuttoning her dress.

Her body instantly stiffened and her mind felt empty. She actually did not know how to refuse.

"Before you left the pavilion, did you not learn to serve your husband?" As he spoke, he untied her clothes.

Gu Qingli suddenly felt a little cold on her body. Although these ancient clothes were very troublesome to wear, they were very soft and could easily slip off her clothes. In the blink of an eye, all that was left on her was her skintight clothes.

Panicking, she pushed him away and climbed into the bed. She crossed her arms over her chest and stared at him warily. "What is the Prince trying to do?"

He put down the tent hook, climbed onto the bed, and took advantage of the situation to push her down. "This king is your husband, what do you want to do?"

"I only know that you don't like me. Even if we were in the same bed last time, you were merely punishing me and looking at me embarrassedly." Gu Qingli forced herself to calm down. If there weren't any shadow guards outside, she didn't need to be afraid of him using force.

"Actually, you want to say that you don't like This King, right? Or do you prefer Yayan? Like... The powder he bought for you, like... He spent so much money for you just to try and make you smile? "

Gu Qingli's face turned pale as she heard this. Actually, this was not surprising. How could he let the 'prisoner' under his watch obtain true freedom? Once she left the manor, Yurou would naturally report this matter to him. How could he let his' thing 'be taken away so easily?

But why was it that when she heard his sour tone, she actually couldn't stop blushing? In fact, she even felt a bit baffled …

"Why do you mind?" She remembered that he had lost control of his emotions because of the incident between her and Xiao Yi Bei on the pleasure boat, and her heart suddenly raced wildly.

He held her hand in the middle of the bed, raised it to his lips, and gently caressed it, making the words that came out of his mouth somewhat vague: "You can let Xiao Yi Bei touch you, and you can even go with Ah Yan. In your heart, do you really see This King as nothing? Do you really hope that the poison in This King's body can never be removed? "

Gu Qingli was suddenly stunned.

"Tonight's fire... "It could also have been you."

Her heart sank, and she stopped for a second, her rhythm speeding up.

He actually doubted her. Even today, he still doubted her!

She suddenly withdrew her hand and mercilessly slapped down with her palm. The pain in her eyes was unbearable. She desperately tried to take in a deep breath to prevent a surge of heat from rushing out.

"Yes, I did. I like the Crown Prince and King Chen, but I don't like you!" She rolled onto her side, no longer wanting to look at him.

With that clear sound, five shallow finger marks slowly appeared on his face that was as white as snow. He did not even try to dodge. With his fast reaction, he could at least avoid hitting his face with that palm.

"I'm sorry." His low voice sounded.

Gu Qingli felt a pair of arms wrap around her from behind. She struggled to shake him off, but was stopped in her tracks by his apology.
