The night was especially dark on this day, just like many people's moods and even many people's lives.
Was it oneself or fate that played tricks on a person from birth to death, and from birth to a life worse than death?
The so-called fate was an objective existence other than oneself — birth, luck, appearance, other people's malice, and even a stone that tripped you on the side of the road.
But after pushing the responsibility to fate, could one really be relieved?
The capital was quiet at this moment, but there were always some people who could no longer calm down.
Even if they took knockout drugs, would they still be tortured by nightmares when they were unconscious?
In the study of the House of Chen.
Li Xiao had just taken a new robe and belt from the butler. She was like a maid, serving Lord Chen shyly. She threw away the dirty robe and changed into a new one.
She had sharp ears and eyes, but when she suddenly heard Xu Ting's words, she was stunned. She still remembered that when she visited Big Brother Wang's courtyard and saw him interacting with the Liu Fang Clan, she couldn't hide her care and admiration.
Especially when the Liu Fang Clan was still in prison, Big Brother Wang slept on the other side of the wooden fence and accompanied the Liu Fang Clan …
What Xu Ting said … was it true?
Her whole mind was focused on Xu Ting and Wang Yi, who were talking behind her. She was worried about whether Wang Yi would be affected or not, while she helped Lord Chen tie the belt …
"Slap!" Chen Jue slapped Li Xiao's hand away with his sleeve and said angrily, "Clumsy!
Go away! "
Then, he grabbed the belt, lowered his head and frowned, and tied it himself.
He tied it twice, but it didn't look good. There were too many secrets in the study that couldn't be seen by too many people, and he couldn't let A Liu come in to tie the belt for him.
She angrily tied an ugly dead knot on herself, and then raised her head to glare fiercely at Li Xiao.
It was as if not tying a belt for Lord Chen was a heinous crime.
Li Xiao lowered her head in shame and retreated to one side. She seriously reflected on herself — why was she so stupid? She couldn't do anything right.
After Xu Ting said that sentence, he was also stunned. He didn't intend to hide it from Wang Yi, but he didn't expect to say it under such circumstances.
Shocked by himself, he hurriedly raised his head and opened his eyes, looking at Wang Yi's face.
Wang Yi was about to reach out and help him stand up, but when he heard these words, he was struck dumb.
Suddenly, his eyes met with Xu Ting's inquisitive and worried eyes. His heart felt as if it had been stabbed.
He turned his head and avoided Xu Ting's eyes. He quickly withdrew his hand that was supporting Xu Ting as if it had been scalded.
Xu Ting's body was weak and uncomfortable, but he quickly reached out and grabbed Wang Yi's wrist. "Wang Yi …"
Wang Yi shook his hand hard and pulled his arm back.
He didn't dare to look at Xu Ting's face. He took a step back and didn't dare to stop. He went around the table and rushed behind Chen Jue.
"…" Xu Ting looked at Wang Yi's panicked expression and suddenly felt uncomfortable.
Damn it …
Chen Jue was shocked by Wang Yi's sudden appearance behind him. He turned his head and glared at him. When he saw Wang Yi's dazed expression, he turned to look at Xu Ting.
This glance made Xu Ting feel as if Lord Chen knew about his relationship with Wang Yi and the Liu Fang Clan.
It can't be, right?
Li Xiao stood behind Chen Jue on the right. She glanced at Wang Yi, who was standing behind Chen Jue on the left. She saw that his head was slightly lowered and his eyes were unfocused. Her heart tightened, and she timidly reached out and grabbed Wang Yi's sleeve.
Wang Yi turned his head and looked at her. His thick eyebrows were slightly trembling. He didn't look angry, but sad.
What a gentle person.
Li Xiao thought, Even after encountering such a situation, he still didn't fight with Xu Ting. Instead, he avoided Xu Ting and stood here helplessly and sadly.
But, how could such a thing happen?
Liu Fang Clan, she … she's really beautiful, but … how could this be?
How could she treat Big Brother Wang like this?
Li Xiao's little heart was extremely confused. The world of adults seemed to be full of complicated situations.
The soldiers tied Prince Six to a stretcher. Chen Jue had to stay up all night to bring him back to the Dali Monastery.
He glanced at Wang Yi and knew that this kid would be useless tonight.
He couldn't count on him to do anything.
Then he looked at Xu Ting. After using his supernatural ability, his body was obviously weak and in pain. He would definitely be useless for the rest of the night.
Therefore, he could only turn his head and look at another person surnamed Wang.
"Wang Hua, go to Jingbei Hou fu. Once Jingbei Hou comes back, ask for an audience.
I want to know His Majesty's intentions. "Chen Jue stood at the door and took the lead to send Wang Hua out.
Although Wang Hua was a Qianzong of the Nine Gates and not a member of the Supreme Court, when he ordered him around, he did not care about the gap between the two yamen. He acted as if he was ordering his own people around.
Wang Hua was still thinking about reporting to his Nine Gates Commander Lord Zhang. When he heard that Lord Chen gave him such an important task, he immediately pulled himself together and went out.
Chen Jue turned his face to look at Xu Ting and then looked at Li Xiao. He said: "Li Xiao, let Steward Chen arrange a room for Xu Ting to stay in first. As for the rest, we'll discuss it tomorrow."
Li Xiao hurriedly nodded. As a result, because of falling, rolling, and running around, her hair was loose and disheveled. Finally, it couldn't bear Li Xiao's head full of black hair — the hair tie broke.
Her long hair suddenly poured down like a waterfall. She cried out and reached out to grab the hair tie. Her long hair swung in an arc and created countless waves — like smoke.
A beautiful young girl with long fluffy hair and a helpless expression on her face — this was the most unguarded beauty that could strike a person's heart.
Seductive and invisible.
"… …" Chen Jue was speechless.
"… …" Wang Yi was immersed in his chaotic thoughts. Suddenly, he was shocked by Li Xiao's long hair fluttering under the oil lamp. His whole body suddenly trembled. She … is so beautiful … …
"… …" A soldier carrying the stretcher turned around and saw this scene. He was still shy because of Li Xiao's beauty, but he was suddenly stunned.
He couldn't control his footsteps at all. His whole body was fixed in place.
The other person carrying the stretcher was still moving forward, but when the soldier behind him stopped, he was tripped and almost fell.
He turned around and was about to complain, but the moment he saw Li Xiao, he completely forgot what he was going to do … …
"Li Xiao!" Chen Jue suddenly shouted angrily. His voice was full of anger.
"Ah!"
Li Xiao was so scared that she trembled. She quickly turned around, gathered her long hair with both hands, and tied it into a ponytail with a hair tie.
Chen Jue's shout also woke the soldier up. The two people turned around reluctantly, pretending that nothing had happened, and quickly walked out of the courtyard.
"When I come back, this study room and this courtyard must be brand new!" Chen Jue took two steps out, turned around and added.
Li Xiao's back was facing Chen Jue, and she didn't dare to look back. She nodded like she was pounding garlic.
"… …" Chen Jue.
After the murderer was taken away, Jue Chen's Shuzhe Garden suddenly became quiet.
Only then did Li Xiao slowly try to turn around.
"They're all gone." Xu Ting said in a hoarse voice, and then closed his eyes.
It was really … … too tiring.
He had been clenching his teeth and holding on. Now that everyone was gone, he breathed a sigh of relief and fell asleep.
Seeing Xu Ting's body slanting to the side with his eyes closed, Li Xiao was so scared that she rushed over to hold his arm to prevent him from falling off the chair.
After holding Xu Ting, she finally sighed deeply. She felt that her whole body was aching, and her arms and feet were very sore.
She turned to look at the stone path outside the courtyard. She bit her lower lip and couldn't help but think, I wonder … … how is Lord Chen's injury … … Although it was bandaged and sprayed with medicine, such a deep and long injury … … the doctor said that he needs to rest well, otherwise … …
She looked back at Xu Ting, and couldn't help but worry. Although the doctor said that Lord Xu was fine, and that he would be fine after some rest … …
But … … he and Big Brother Wang … … such a gentle Big Brother Wang … … Is the child of the Liu Fang Clan really his?
Xu Ting, who had already fallen asleep, didn't know that after he fell asleep, Li Xiao held his shoulder and worried about the country and its people.
