Drunk Bamboo

"Xie Yuzhu, don't believe what that damn girl says. As long as she wants something or wants to achieve a certain goal, nine out of ten of her words are lies..."

After settling Xiao Bingxin down, Hua Qinfeng came out of the guest room and talked to Xie Yuzhu about Xiao Bingxin all the way.

I originally wanted to clean up a courtyard for her to live in, but Hua Qinfeng said it was not a big deal as she wouldn't be staying there for long anyway.

Xiao Bingxin pretended not to hear it. She looked as if she was happy to stay and that it was no problem to use the guest room, and she happily went into the house.

Xie Yuzhu didn't say anything more and asked Yunling to stay and help her tidy up the room and arrange the daily necessities.

On the way back to Changfeng Courtyard, she kept thinking about the meaning of Xiao Bingxin's last words and the meaningful look in her eyes when she looked at Hua Qinfeng.

"Xie Yuzhu, what are you thinking about? Did you hear me?" Hua Qinfeng saw that she looked dazed and didn't seem to be listening to him, so he asked with concern.

"Dead girl?" Xie Yuzhu came back to her senses and smiled faintly, "So it turns out that the prince's calling her the fourth girl has such a homophonic sound."

It turns out that Hua Qinfeng can be so naughty at times. He is usually very serious, but he is different towards Xiao Bingxin.

I think of how free and happy he was when he was in the western frontier, but in Zhongdu, he got nothing except injuries.

Even though my closest family members are here, they are only hurt.

"You don't know her. People who don't know her will be deceived by her appearance. She is a liar and a crybaby. I have fallen into her hands many times."

When Hua Qinfeng talked about Xiao Bingxin, he was particularly energetic and excited.

If you say you hate it, then you hate it; if you say you care about it, then you care about it. It all depends on what each person thinks in his or her heart.

"The prince seems to be very special to her." Xie Yuzhu raised her eyes and glanced at him, paying attention to the changes in his facial expression.

He lowered his eyes, his deep pupils revealing emotions he had never seen before.

"I joined the Xiao family army when I was thirteen years old. General Xiao and his three sons took good care of me. If it weren't for the Xiao family, I wouldn't have lived so happily in the West. Xiao Bingxin is the apple of the Xiao family's eye. Madam Xiao passed away early, so everyone in the family doted on her and spoiled her. She became willful and spoiled."

Hua Qinfeng seldom takes the initiative to talk about the past, especially the western frontier, which seems to be his pure land, a sacred and inviolable place.

And every time he talked about the palace, his father, the king, and his mother, he was extremely casual and nonchalant.

Because the only person he cared about in the palace, his mother, had already left, and there was nothing worth reminiscing about.

"Your Highness, is this because of your friendship with the Xiao family, so you are so tolerant and generous towards Miss Xiao?" Xie Yuzhu asked.

"Otherwise I would have kicked her out of the house long ago." Hua Qinfeng's dark eyes widened, unable to hide his panic for a moment.

He would never admit that he suppressed his anger for Xie Yuzhu.

I was afraid that if I really got angry, it would scare her.

Afraid that the image she revered and worshipped in her heart would be destroyed.

Xie Yuzhu, however, believes that when a man is willing to tolerate a woman, there must be other feelings besides gratitude.

However, this carefree man in front of me may not have discovered his true inner feelings.

Just thought it was annoying.

Thinking of this, Xie Yuzhu felt a little empty in his heart.

"But I have also deceived the prince."

"You...how can you compare with her? She is willful, and you are trying to solve the problem. You said that you can't say harsh words to people who really care about you. That's called a white lie."

Xie Yuzhu smiled:

"Who says the prince is ignorant of worldly affairs? The prince also understands things very quickly."

Hua Qinfeng remembered everything she said.

The slight emptiness in my heart was filled in an instant.

Xie Yuzhu didn't care too much.

Even if the prince has many concubines in the future, she will always be the princess and her status will not change.

Because her marriage was arranged by the emperor, she was the legitimate daughter of the Nanmi Xie family.

Her ambition was not to be imprisoned in the palace, to please men, and to live a life of intrigue. She wanted to travel and write the Book of Poisonous Grass. How could she have the time to help him manage the palace and have children? In this way, she was incompetent as a princess.

"Xie Yuzhu, aren't you angry?" Hua Qinfeng asked carefully when he saw that she was silent.

Xie Yuzhu raised her eyes again and asked in confusion:

"Why are you angry? The prince always seems to like asking me this question. Am I someone who seems to get angry easily?"

"No, no."

Hua Qinfeng hurriedly shook his head.

"Everyone who meets me says that I am kind and considerate. I am always friendly, never angry, and treat everyone equally."

Xie Yuzhu paused, then stepped closer, staring straight at him.

"Your Majesty, do you think I am prone to temper tantrums?"

Hua Qinfeng suddenly panicked and took several steps back.

"No, no, you're very good, you don't lose your temper, you, you're the best and most considerate!"

"Really?" He raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Of course it's true!" Hua Qinfeng was stunned and wanted to swear.

Xie Yuzhu couldn't help but laugh. He was so gullible.

He shook his head again, really not understanding women's minds.

Xie Yuzhu: "Why is the prince so nervous? He even stuttered when he spoke."

"I'm not nervous! I'm just mad at that damn girl!"

Hua Qinfeng held his head high and quickly walked to the front to prevent Xie Yuzhu from seeing his panicked expression.

"I'm just afraid that you'll be unhappy. I don't want you to be unhappy. Xiao Bingxin's coming here will definitely be troublesome. She's pestering you now because she knows you're soft-hearted. Yun Ling also has a good temper. Otherwise, I'll let Bai Guo take care of you during the days she lives in the mansion."

Bai Guo is a fearless person. No one dares to offend the person she wants to protect. Even if the other party is the emperor, Bai Guo will not give in, let alone be afraid of offending.

Hua Qinfeng was worried that Xiao Bingxin would pester Xie Yuzhu and cause trouble for her during the few days she stayed in the mansion.

"Your back injury has just healed. It will take some time to recover. Don't worry about her. When General Xiao replies to the letter, send her back immediately."

She knew that Hua Qinfeng was doing this for her own good.

Still not adopted:

"Don't bother. Nanny also needs Baiguo's care. I can handle it, Your Majesty, don't worry."

Now that she has said so, it should be fine.

Hua Qinfeng didn't mention it again.

Suddenly Xie Yuzhu asked, "Does the prince really think that Yunling and I have good tempers?"

"Okay, of course you are the most amiable and gentle, but sometimes you are so resolute that people are in awe of you." Hua Qinfeng learned from the lesson just now and used all the words of praise.

Perseverance and courage.

Feel awe.

Is this what Hua Qinfeng thinks?

Just awe.

Xie Yuzhu smiled calmly: "So I'm not easy to mess with."

Hua Qinfeng added: "You are the best!"

For women, the word "awesome" may not be what they want to hear.
