C185 hunting(10)

His hands were long and strong, and his fingernails were well-cut and neat. When he held her, he just so happened to wrap her soft and delicate hand around his palm. It was warm and safe.

Princess Lan Xun's heart trembled for no reason, and she felt her heartbeat quicken.

Previously, she had only had a slight favorable impression of him and had only been inclined towards him after being measured repeatedly within the fourth prince. That was a rational choice. However, at this moment, she felt an inexplicable sense of panic and softness, as if her heart was throbbing irrationally.

How could Xiao Yiyan have known that her thoughts were surging like a tide? He only focused on pulling her closer, pulling out the dagger at his waist and slowly cutting the mountain vines on her body.

"It's all Princess Mo's fault. If she didn't throw me down here, if she didn't wrap the Mountain Vine around me …" I already have the rope. "

Xiao Yi Yan's hand paused for a moment, lifting his head to look at her. With a cold expression, he said, "If she had not wrapped the vine around your body, you would have already fallen down when the pine branches broke. How could I have been able to save you?"

Princess Lan Xun thought about it and felt that what he had said was the true reason, but she still refused to admit it. She bit her lips until they turned white.

"Looking back, if you did not lure her to the edge of this cliff and force her to fight with you, would you have fallen down?"

"In order to save her, I threw out the whip in order for her to catch me. That's why I brought her down!"

Xiao Yiyan said indifferently: "Without you, how could there be any results? If you frame her, she will bring you down; if you save her, she will also save you. "

Princess Lan Xun opened her mouth, and an unexplainable feeling of grievance welled up in her heart. The sour tears once again welled up in her eyes, and she angrily said, "You only know how to help her! This princess knows that no matter what happens, you will always stand by her side and speak up for her because you have a crush on her! "

He exerted force with his hand, and with the tip of his dagger, the mountain vines were torn apart. Princess Orchon instantly lost her weight, and let out an earth-shattering scream that reverberated below the cliff. The guards, who originally couldn't hear her cry, vaguely heard the scream and tried to stick their heads out, but were unable to see the situation below the cliff.

Xiao Yiyan's arm timely wrapped around Princess Lan Xun's slender waist, pulling her into his embrace and drawing her closer to him.

Princess Lan Xun was still in a state of shock. She felt that her entire body was drenched in sweat. The light summer clothes were all stuck to her body, outlining her incomparably beautiful figure.

Xiao Yiyan put away his dagger. His expression was cold and his entire body emitted a cold aura.

And when Princess Lan Xun realized how close she was to him, so close that even her breath flowed in and out of her nose, how could her soft bosom be so enchanting when pressed against his chest?

However, from this ambiguous distance, Princess Lan Xun could feel Xiao Yiyan's cold and icy aura. There was not a trace of nervousness or nervousness in his eyes, nor was there even a hint of shyness and distress.

Xiao Yiyan lightly pulled on the rope tied around his waist, indicating that he should pull them up as the rope slowly began to move.

Princess Lan Xun's heart seemed to be stuffed with something, like she wanted to cry, but at the same time, she also wanted to be angry. However, she knew very well that his indifference and neglect towards her was all because of Gu Qingli. For some inexplicable reason, she started to vent her anger on Gu Qing Li, thinking that he was just a fox spirit. As expected, he was just as annoying as Gu Qing Ruo had said.

"Little Tai... "Prince Chen, you don't want to talk to me anymore?"

Xiao Yiyan didn't reply. He raised his head and looked at the rope moving slowly, as if he didn't hear what she said.

"You … You want to protect her like this just because I said something to her? "Don't forget the status gap between you two …"

"This King knows, there is no need for Princess's reminder." Xiao Yiyan had always been a well-bred person, and was especially warm and considerate to beauties. Such harsh words were already his limit.

"Good …" You... This princess is here to get along with you, are you sure you don't want to get married? "

Xiao Yiyan swept her gaze from top to bottom with a cold gaze, revealing a strange expression. "You can choose anyone you want if you want to marry me, it's not like you have to be this king. Both the Three Sovereigns and the Six Emperor Brothers wish for it, but it doesn't matter who you choose. "

Princess Lan Xun's face was pale. She glared at him and said, "Are these the words in your heart?"

"This King will not agree to a marriage alliance. You can choose any one of my royal brothers." "If it really doesn't satisfy the princess, then this king will have two royal brothers. Although they are a bit young, they look as though they are the same age as the princess …"

Princess Lan Xun's eyes went black and she almost fainted. She came to the marriage alliance with a heart full of unwillingness, but she thought that all of the princes of the Xiao family were after her like birds of a feather. She didn't expect that before she even confessed, they would be rejected. Putting aside her identity as a princess, she was also one of the most beautiful women in the Western Paradise. When had she ever received such humiliation?

"Good, good!" Xiao Yiyan, this is what you said. If you don't want to marry me, I won't force you! "

Xiao Yiyan pursed his lips and didn't say anything. Seeing that the rope was about to reach the top, he felt relieved. He could finally let go of this delicate and arrogant Princess Xi Lin.

The guards at the top of the hall frantically tried to pull them up. Princess Lan Xun hung in the air for a long time, her legs turning weak. When they touched the ground, she almost fell down.

Princess Lan Xun ignored her and once again wiped away the tears that had inadvertently leaked out of her eyes. She completely did not notice the astonished and forced smile that everyone had thrown at her.

"Princess, are you alright?" Jingyuan asked pitifully.

Princess Lan Xun's clothes were stained with dirt, and a few were torn. Her face was smeared beyond recognition, making people want to laugh. However, when compared with Jing Yuan, they discovered that her bearing was completely different. When Princess Lan Xun was in such a sorry state, her eyes were still filled with haughtiness, looking down upon everyone. Jing Yuan, on the other hand, was just a naïve and naive young lady with no sense of royalty at all.

"What can happen? "Go back and make people laugh."

Jing Yuan pouted, supporting Princess Lan Xun as she mounted the horse.

Gu Qingli shook her head as she looked at Princess Lan Xun's arrogant attitude. She turned to Xiao Yiyan and asked, "Is Prince Chen doing well?"

"I'm fine." Xiao Yiyan lowered his head and patted off the dust on his clothes. As he climbed upwards, the bottom of his clothes were grinded by the rocks, causing some damage. A bit of dust had even appeared on his face. And the princess did not even formally express her gratitude, truly lacking the etiquette that a princess of a country should have.

Gu Qingli pulled out a handkerchief and handed it to Xiaoyan, gesturing for him to wipe her face. He accepted the silk handkerchief. It was a high-quality satin cloth, snow-white and soft, without any embroidery. Of course, Gu Qingli had no way of embroidery.

Xiao Yiyan froze for a moment, but still silently wiped her face, and then casually put it into his bosom.
