Chapter 8

Xiangxia leaned against the head of the bed, looking at the little golden scissors hanging on her finger, very puzzled.

The prince doesn't embroider, sew clothes, or cut paper. What's the custom of putting a small pair of scissors by the pillow?Xiangxia was born in the capital and grew up in Xunzhou, and she has never heard of it in the north and south.

He sat up lightly, looked sideways at Chu Tan with his head propped up, touched Chu Tan's unsuspecting sleeping face, gently pinched it, making it soft.

this kid.

How can it not be used for self-defense.

……

It seems that there is really such a possibility.

Xiangxia rubbed Chu Tan's hair, and said helplessly, "Little brat."

In the early morning of the next day, a ray of sunlight shone on Chu Tan's face, Chu Tan rubbed his eyes, and subconsciously reached out to touch his side, but there was no one around him.

He woke up suddenly, staring blankly at the empty seat beside the bed, his face turned from red to white and then blue, with indescribable disappointment and anger in his eyes.

"Xiangxia!" He patted the head of the bed vigorously, there was a muffled bang, and the small teacup on the bedside was directly shaken and fell to the ground, shattering into pieces with a bang.

"The subordinates have been here all the time, the prince calm down."

Chu Tan trembled and turned around following the voice.

Xiangxia had already cleaned up neatly, wearing her sword belt and darts neatly around her waist, leaning against the wall behind Chu Tan, looking at him with raised eyebrows.

Chu Tan breathed a sigh of relief: "Changing clothes for me."

"So fierce." Xiangxia smiled and sat on the edge of the bed, supported Chu Tan's thin and slender shoulders from behind, pressed her lips against his soft neck, and asked softly, "Are you angry? Why?"

"No." Chu Tan was a little embarrassed, Xiangxia probably saw all his wayward attitude just now.

"This subordinate wants to ask a question." Xiangxia pressed his earlobe and asked, "What is this for?"

Chu Tan turned to look at Xiangxia, and suddenly saw a pair of small golden scissors with carved patterns in his hand, Chu Tan's face suddenly became ugly, and he fell silent for a while.

"My lord stopped talking." Xiangxia kissed his earlobe, which became red hot because of embarrassment, and asked without waiting for his answer, "Could it be to prevent the subordinate from betraying the master and hurting others."

Chu Tan's body froze, even though it was no longer used for self-defense many years ago.

"No. And you are too unruly." Chu Tan broke free from Xiangxia's arms, got out of the bed, took the clothes and put them on himself.

Suddenly, a cold wind came, and a five-point plum blossom dart flew towards Chu Tan through the air. Chu Tan was so shocked that he could not move. depths of the walls.

The blade was only a hair's breadth away from Chu Tan's flesh, any closer would have killed someone.Chu Tan's face turned pale, his legs became so weak that he couldn't stand upright, he knelt on the ground, and it took him a while to recover, looking at Xiangxia in a daze: "What do you want to do?"

Xiangxia was weighing another dart in his hand, and looked down at Chu Tan who was kneeling on the ground. Chu Tan's fingertips were trembling, and he looked at Xiangxia who was slowly approaching in a panic. He had never shown any killing intent in front of him. When Xiangxia raised her hand close to her cheek, Chu Tan couldn't help closing her eyes nervously.

But Xiangxia sighed, slid his fingertips across Chu Tan's face, rubbed his head, and sighed in a low voice: "It's been more than ten years, are you still afraid of me?"

He gently picked up Chu Tan, leaned this weak and pitiful body against the wall, pressed his lips against Chu Tan's forehead and asked, "Why, my subordinate changed a lot for you."

"You boring guy." Chu Tan pushed him away, looked into Xiangxia's eyes coldly, and said casually, "That's something I used for suicide, and it has nothing to do with you."

After all, Chu Tan obviously felt that Xiangxia's heartbeat froze for a moment.

Chu Tan said again: "You have no reason to blame me. I still don't know your origin, your identity, or even your name. I still want to keep you regardless of the consequences of angering my father. Let me tell you, like Such a blatant temptation, you are insulting the king."

"Throw it away." For the first time, Xiangxia talked with Chu Tan in an almost commanding tone.

After a long time, Chu Tan nodded, "Yes."

"This subordinate will not hurt you." Xiangxia cupped Chu Tan's face, and kissed it tenderly with lips in his mouth. Chu Tan gradually learned to respond, and wrapped his thin arms around Xiangxia's neck.

"I won't leave your side either."

"But you want to lock me in a cage." Chu Tan put his arms around Xiangxia's neck, raised his head and said calmly, "If you want to open your eyes, you will see me, and you will see me when you come back from training, and you won't let me go anywhere."

Xiangxia was immediately poked at the center of the matter, embarrassed for a moment, humming and turning her head away with a smile: "Is there such a thing?"

"What you said yourself that night was telling the truth after drinking?" Chu Tan seemed to be indifferent, but in fact he pressed on every step of the way.

"Let's just say it." Xiangxia smiled, "Men always have something to pursue."

"Really." Chu Tan pushed Xiangxia to the side of the bed, sat on his lap with his legs spread apart, lay on the bed with his shoulders pressed, looked down at him from a high position, and said with a light smile, "Then stay with me." In this cage."

Xiangxia caressed the back of the child who was pressing on her, and pinched the soft cheek: "This subordinate obeys."

Ordinary days passed without rush, the front of the Zhennan Prince's Mansion was clean, at first he talked about Zhennan's Prince Chu's shameful habit, but the Hu Guogong personally wrote a letter to withdraw the marriage, and his face was disgraced.I don't know when these rumors gradually disappeared, and no gossip was heard anymore.

Chu Tan was lazily nestled in the recliner, turning the pages of the book boredly, and asked the shadow guard beside him, "Did you do it?"

Xiangxia leaned against Chu Tan's back, pinched Chu Tan's earlobe, and smiled with the corner of her mouth raised: "This subordinate is small-minded, and I don't want others to always mention my wife."

"come over."

Xiangxia licked her lips, and knelt beside Chu Tan on one knee: "My lord, what's the matter?"

Unexpectedly, Chu Tan turned sideways, supported Xiangxia's face, and kissed him on the cheek, the tips of his ears were slightly red, and his eyes were smiling: "Thank you, keep it up."

Xiangxia licked her lips and smiled, if she had grown a tail, she would have sparkled by now.

"Thank you, my lord...for the reward." Xiangxia hugged Chu Tan, closed the door with his elbow, and carried him into the bedroom.

"Promoting adultery in the daytime." Chu Tan pinched the flesh on Xiangxia's shoulder, "Huh."

Xiangxia put her head down and kissed a few marks between the young master Bai Nen's collarbone, and said with a smirk, "What did you say? This subordinate didn't hear."

"I said you are a beast." Chu Tan blushed with anger.

Xiangxia lifted Chu Tan's chin to carefully examine this flawless face, and after a long while, he clicked his tongue, "That's right."

This was delayed for another hour.

Chu Tan lay pitifully on the pillow with red eyes, Xiangxia looked contented, poured a cup of tea to cool down, sat beside Chu Tan and patiently fed him water.

Xiangxia looked at Chu Tan who was drinking water seriously, she was so cute, she removed the teacup before Chu Tan finished drinking, bowed her head and kissed him.

Chu Tan struggled for a long time before crawling out of the beast's arms.

"I still have to accept the appointment of Second Young Master Ning tonight. I'll be back late. Don't wait for me, my lord, go to bed early."

"Busy recently?" Chu Tan asked with a slight frown, "You often come home late these days."

Xiangxia smiled: "Don't worry, my lord, does this subordinate look like the kind of person who has people outside?"

Chu Tan looked at him like a beast.

"Hmm... Someone outside is looking for me recently." Xiangxia rubbed Chu Tan's hair, "This subordinate can settle things down."

"Who is it?"

"The people from Beihua Xunzhou."

"Your friend?"

"No."

"Okay." Chu Tan shook Xiangxia's hand, "Be careful."

"It's okay, it's not a big deal." Xiangxia put on the sword belt, roughly calculated the time, and left the dormitory.

Just as Xiangxia walked out of the dormitory, she blew a whistle, and several black-clothed shadow guards landed beside her, and said solemnly:

"Keep the prince safe, I'll be back soon."

Qiuchan saw that Xiangxia's expression was more serious than before, and asked in a low voice, "Any news?"

"Yeah." Xiangxia said, "Be extra vigilant against outsiders."

"Yes."

Xiangxia left Zhennan Prince's Mansion and hurried towards Yunyue Tower.

On the way, Fang felt that his whole body was cold, and someone followed him.He put his right hand on the hilt of his waist, and quietly entered a deep alley.

At the end of the alley, there was a man in black waiting quietly.

The man was slender and tall, he slowly walked out from the shadow of the alleyway, the moonlight illuminated his whole body.His face was covered with a layer of black brocade, only a pair of cold almond eyes were exposed, the pupil of his left eye was blue and gray, as if he had been blind for many years.

Xiangxia tried his best to discern useful information from these eyes, but unfortunately he had no impression of this person at all.

"Who are you? What are you doing?" Xiangxia put his hand on the hilt of his sword, raised his chin and asked him.

"You don't know me." The other party's voice didn't sound like a teenager, but it was gentle and warm.

"I'll clean up the house for the owner." He said gently, "The traitors must not stay."

"I heard that the villa has changed hands. I haven't returned for many years, why are you chasing me?" Xiangxia frowned, "I have to make it clear, first of all, I didn't betray the family, and secondly, I am the one who lives wherever I go. Freedom, let me live and die?"

"I'm telling you, I've got married, and I'm done with the golden basin."

"You're right. That's why the owner told me that you don't have to take your life." The man in black didn't feel angry at all, and slowly raised his left hand with two fingers, holding a bamboo slip made of purple bamboo between his fingers. One finger wide.

Peacock Villa is a well-known killer's house, mysterious and distinguished guests often visit, and with sky-high rewards, they invite Peacock Villa to take over the killing.

A black sign is a merchant, a red sign is an official, and a purple sign is a nobleman.

When the man in black showed the bamboo stick in his hand, Xiangxia's face turned pale instantly, his canthus was about to burst, bloodshot eyes were all over his eyes, and he stared fiercely at the purple stick.

Between the fingers of that person was a thousand gold purple sign, with a few words in the letter:

Zhennan Wang Chu Tan.

"10 taels." The man in black shook his fingers and said softly, "The owner of the villa will inherit the family business, and the villa will be ruined. This small amount of money is still useful."

After only a momentary loss of consciousness, when Xiangxia regained consciousness, the masked man stood in front of her silently, a small black fan slipped out of his cuff, tracing the curve of Xiangxia's jaw, those almond eyes were like a pool The deep water reflected himself, and he asked softly, "Will you stop me?"

Although this person is covered with half of his face, he can imagine that there should be a pretty face under the veil, Xiangxia always feels that he is creeped out by these eyes.

"No..." Xiangxia swallowed.

The man in black accepted the purple lottery.

Xiangxia turned around quickly, took seven steps in a row outside the high wall of the deep alley, turned over and climbed up the high wall, and jumped.

"No...you're the only one who has a ghost!"
