He killed someone, she finished him off, even the crazy Marquis was shocked

Kneeling was just an accident, you can’t tell anyone about it!

Li Siwan simply remained silent.

Xiahou Su's gaze fell on her, and he looked at her for a long time with a complicated look in his eyes.

After a long while, Li Siwan finally spoke again.

"This matter is actually very simple. You just need to replace her with another one and take her out of prison!"

"Simple? Do you think that I can enter or leave the Dali Temple prison whenever I want? The law is in place, and people should pay the price for what they have done."

"Then in your opinion, does everyone who kills someone have to pay with their life? If so, you would have died a thousand times, wouldn't you?"

After hearing this, Xiahou Su frowned.

Li Siwan continued, "From what I saw, the young marquis killed the nanny in Fengxue Garden and the assassin in the painted boat. I think all of these were self-defense, but the shopkeeper of Hengchang Building..."

Li Siwan was about to speak but stopped, but Xiahou Su chuckled, "Are you threatening me?"

"Of course not. What I want to say is that if you want to make the law fair, everyone should be equal, without any distinction between high and low. If you can't do that, don't use the fairness of the law as an excuse to reject me."

Everyone is equal?

Xiahou Su looked at Li Siwan. She had a calm expression on her face, and her eyes were firm and serious.

Xiahou Su's mind was filled with memories of her beating and scolding the maid, and she frowned again.

But the frowning look turned into incomprehension in Li Siwan's eyes.

Yes, this is an idea deeply rooted in the times, so how can there be any exceptions?

Li Siwan sighed and served wine to Xiahou Suman. "Forget it, it's useless to talk about this. Why don't you try the food I made first, and we can talk about everything later?"

Everyone says that to conquer a man, you must first conquer his stomach, and the same goes for bribery.

Li Siwan helped to serve the dishes. Xiahou Su was not afraid that she would poison the food, so he just started to eat leisurely.

Every dish tastes delicious.

Xiahou Su couldn't help but exclaim, "What a great craftsmanship."

"Of course I have to. I've been practicing this since I was a kid. People who have eaten it say it's as good as a five-star chef."

"You've been practicing since you were a kid?"

There was a probing look in Xiahou Su's eyes, and Li Siwan finally reacted.

As the legitimate daughter of a minister, why should she learn to cook since she was a child?

Li Siwan was not panicked, and said calmly, "Young Marquis, you don't know, I have loved cooking soup since I was a child, and my family couldn't stop me."

"Is that so?"

"Yes!"

Xiahou Su stared into Li Siwan's eyes, but could not see anything.

After tasting a few more dishes, he said, "Since you like cooking, why don't you be responsible for my diet in the future!"

"what?"

"What? You don't want to?"

Li Siwan smiled bitterly, "Of course I am willing, but Tianxia Diyi Lou is too busy. How about this, I set aside three days a month to cook for you, young master? After all, if I cook every day, you will get tired of it, which is not good."

Xiahou Su nodded, then put down his chopsticks and looked at Li Siwan seriously, "Tell me the real reason why you want to save the Duke's wife."

"I've already said it, I just think she's a good person!"

"I want to hear the truth."

Looking at the suspicion in Xiahou Su's eyes, Li Siwan sighed silently.

"Young Marquis, not everyone has to have gains and losses when doing things. I really just want to save her. She would rather bear the name of a vicious woman for more than ten years just to save those women and give them freedom. Isn't such a person worth saving?"

"Then why do you think I will help you?"

"Because the young marquis is also a good man!"

This is also true. Although Xiahou Su is moody and occasionally abnormal, he is essentially a good person.

It's not just because he has been on the battlefield for many years, but also because of all the stories Li Siwan has heard about him over the past few days.

He is dressed in fine clothes and rides a fast horse, serving his country and his people, and caring about the world. Even if it means destroying himself, he is always protecting his country.

Such people are good people.

This is also the reason why Li Siwan still dared to come to Xiahou Su despite the previous conflicts.

Say he is a good man!

Xiahou Su couldn't help but want to laugh, but when he saw the sincerity in Li Siwan's eyes, he couldn't laugh.

Something deep in my heart was touched.

At this moment, Li Siwan suddenly reached out, held his hand, and touched his pulse.

The warmth from her fingertips quickly warmed Xiahou Su's cold hands.

Li Siwan's serious profile fell into Xiahou Su's eyes, and for a moment, it was brighter than the candlelight.

But after Li Siwan found out the pulse, he frowned.

"You haven't taken any medicinal baths or taken any medicine these days? Don't you take care of your body?"

There was still some anger in her tone. If he died, she would not be able to live either!

But in Xiahou Su's eyes, this look showed concern for him.

Xiahou Su's heart moved slightly, but the next moment he withdrew his hand from Li Siwan.

"The doctor is gone, do I still need to take medicine?"

"I'm not the only doctor. Besides, the prescriptions are all there. What does it matter if I'm not here?"

"So you mean to say that we want to terminate our original cooperation?"

termination?

Did she mean it?

If the cooperation is terminated, how to complete the task?

Li Siwan quickly shook his head, "Of course not, I said I would save you, no matter what, I won't let anything happen to you!"

As soon as these words came out, Xiahou Su's eyes suddenly lit up.

This was the first time that a weak girl had declared in front of him that nothing would happen to him.

A smile appeared on the corner of his lips, but he hid it when he picked up the wine glass.

"what ever!"

Seeing that Xiahou Su didn't say anything else, Li Siwan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But today's Xiahou Su seems a little different.

Li Siwan looked over and saw Xiahou Su sitting sideways under the lamp, with the moonlight and stars, his whole body was cool but exuding a gentleness that was not there before.

Although it is very faint, it can be felt.

Li Siwan was watching intently when Xiahou Su suddenly turned around. Li Siwan was so scared that he immediately looked away.

"After the Mid-Autumn Festival, there will be a palace banquet, and you will be needed to go. Please prepare. Before that, you will go back to the Marquis' Mansion with me first."

"okay."

Li Siwan nodded, and then thought of something, "Then, young marquis, are you free during the Mid-Autumn Festival?"

"There is also a palace banquet during the Mid-Autumn Festival."

Li Siwan felt a little disappointed, "Oh."

"However, I have never liked this kind of palace banquet, so it's better not to go."

"really?"

Li Siwan smiled instantly, "The No.1 Restaurant in the World is opening for the Mid-Autumn Festival, please come and support us, young Lord. I only invited you!"

There was a hint of coquettishness in Li Siwan's tone that she herself didn't even notice, and her eyes were curved, which made it impossible for Xiahou Su to refuse.

"Well, after all, I am also the chief shopkeeper of the world's number one restaurant!"

Xiahou Su agreed, and Li Siwan was naturally happy.

With Xiahou Su in charge, there is no need to worry about any trouble.

As long as the business goes smoothly, you will make a lot of money in the future.

Li Siwan smiled and stood up, "Then, young master, eat a little more. I will go and make some medicine for you."

He turned around and was about to leave, but halfway through he seemed to remember something, so he stopped and looked back at Xiahou Su.

Without waiting for her to speak, Xiahou Su said directly, "Tomorrow night on the hillside outside the city, you will see the person you want to see."

"Thank you, Young Marquis. I knew that you are the best man in the world!"

Li Siwan ran away while laughing, and his figure fell into Xiahou Su's eyes, and finally turned into a smile.

When he turned around, the smile was reflected in his eyes through the wine glass.

The smile gradually faded and his brows wrinkled slightly.

He just smiled because of her!
