I Want to be Alone, Beautifully

Sometimes Yu Ye didn't quite understand what Xu Jiao said.

But judging from her intelligence and countless experiences from reading people, she can easily guess with a little thought that this little Highness is a little narcissistic, and seems to take seriously the joke he threatened her that day. It's okay to think of this, and I am very wary of myself.

It's fine if she was just an unknown little princess before, but now that she is the majestic Crown Prince of Yan, she can't use words to tease casually like before. If she despises the person she has chosen, others will just look down on her. I feel that Xu Jiao is even more useless.

Yu Ye stood in front of Xu Jiao's bed for a long time by the candlelight in the inner hall before leaving.

Before leaving, she did not forget to wave her sleeves to extinguish all the lamps and candles in the corner.

When the figure left and the light in the room dimmed, Xu Jiao opened her eyes and took a look outside. Perhaps it started from Lilith's world. She was used to being pestered by the other party's overly liberal nature, and she suddenly saw this guy She was a little uncomfortable with being so well behaved.

But fortunately, she is not the type who is too lustful, and it is not bad to be able to live through this world in such a well-mannered way——

She pressed her arms behind her head, staring at the curtains on the top of the bed, thinking of Master Yu's appearance that he didn't even touch his chopsticks during the day, and thinking about how to find a way to mend her in the next few days.

In the quiet atmosphere, the system couldn't hold back the sound: "You...seem to care about the heroine very much now?"

Xu Jiao nodded: "Being cold or ignoring her can easily lead to a tragic ending, and it is easy to blacken her and lead to strange plots such as imprisonment and bondage, so why can't I treat her better?" In this way, even if she loves me deeply in the end, I can still choose a way and posture that makes me more comfortable, right?"

system:"……"

It heard the rush of yellow.

Perhaps it was shocked by Xu Jiao's change, it didn't continue to make a sound, Xu Jiao fell asleep thinking about it by herself.

……

Early next morning.

The summer wind penetrated into the house through the window, and it was already a little dry in the early morning. Xu Jiao was awakened by the personal attendants, and then she heard Gong E whispering softly to ask if she wanted to put an ice basin in the house cool down.

After all, Xu Jiao is a woman, not as strong and powerful as a man, and now she has just passed Jiji's fifteenth year, but she is not as tall as some of the thirteenth and fourteenth servants in the palace. Yu Ye ordered her to use the best balm to serve her after taking a bath, and she also eats a lot of food on weekdays, which is beneficial, but this kind of nourishing method does not see the effect in three to five days, and it takes years to see the effect.

Therefore, they are also a little bit unsure whether to put something to cool down in the house.

Xu Jiao was putting on her uniform, and she was waiting for someone to fix her collar and sleeves. Just as she was about to ask for some ice, she heard a slightly cold voice from outside the house:

"It's not yet the dog days, what kind of ice basin is on, Your Highness is studying and studying in the house now, and there are people palming fans around, so you won't suffer from heat stroke like this. If it is really hot, the clothing department will change the close-fitting clothes to lighter and more breathable materials That's it."

Hearing this voice, the servants around Xu Jiao lowered their heads nonchalantly. Although everyone knew that Yu Ye was the one who held the real power and could hold the prince in his hands, after all, under Xu Jiao's In front of them, they couldn't answer Yu Ye directly, so they could only lower their heads and wait for Xu Jiao's orders.

Xu Jiao's expression was very calm, not like some little beasts who can't wait to show their claws when they first encounter power, singing back to Yu Ye, just smiled, and responded with the trend:

"Master Yu's words are very true."

"I heard that there was a flood in a county in the south a few days ago. The Ministry of Household Affairs called on the government and the Chinese officials who have spare capacity to contribute to fundraising in addition to the national treasury. , exchange my ice bills for this month into cash, and donate to the household department for disaster relief."

She had already said this, and others thought that Yu Ye should be satisfied, but who knew that the other party took a step into the room, and his figure blocked a little sunlight, making the room darker by two points.

Xuanyi always carried a chilling tone, just such a step, as if the King of Hades came to take his life, Xu Jiao could easily hear the soft breathing of the people around her, and feel their lowered heads.

At that time, her clothes had already been changed, Xu Jiao met Yu Ye's gaze, and inadvertently traced her facial features from the corner of her eye, thinking that this person is obviously so beautiful, so temperamental, and even has a great sense of integrity , why is it so scary?

At this moment, the person Xu Jiao watched spoke.

"Your Highness needn't be like that."

"The imperial court has made proper arrangements for disaster relief. Dayan is not so poor that even the crown prince has to shrink his clothes and go on a diet to survive."

Xu Jiao raised her eyebrows slightly.

She said in a slightly distressed tone: "Master Yu is really hard to please."

It's really a needle in the bottom of a woman's heart.

Yu Ye looked at her deeply, and his expression did not seem to be kind: "Your Highness, as a prince, will inherit the great rule in the future, and is the most honorable person in the world. Why should you flatter anyone? I can't be your highness." The word "please" spreads out, it will make people think that the minister is coercing the royal family and ordering all the officials."

Xu Jiao just wanted to laugh.

So hypocritical.

Obviously, he has done the massacre of the Xu family, and even established himself as the prince according to his will. Everyone in the palace listens to her and looks at her face. She is a veritable regent, but now Instead, let yourself show the appearance that a prince should have.

Xu Jiao thought, if she really showed her sharpness, maybe she would feel that she was ambitious and scheming, and she would be the first to kill herself.

She somewhat understands why others have said that "accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger". Staying with someone with real power is really like trying to survive. If you go further wrong, you can't take a step back. You can only keep racking your brains to find a compromise. way of doing.

She took another serious look at Yu Ye.

This person is consuming the goodwill accumulated by the heroines of the previous worlds with Xu Jiao.

When Xu Jiao confirmed that she really couldn't remember anything, or lost all the favorability, the two of them would meet again as they did in the first world.

Xu Jiao's eyes will no longer be on her.

Yu Ye probably had a deep intuition that something was about to change, but he couldn't catch it for a while, hesitated for a while, and finally asked the person in front of him:

"Why does Your Highness look down on you so much?"

There was a slight smile in Xu Jiao's eyebrows, like the clouds in the sky, just a gust of wind could erase these traces, even the tone of voice was very casual:

"Master Yu is born beautiful."

It means, you look good and I stare at you.

But when she said this, the palace people in the palace knelt on the ground tremblingly, as if the King of Hades had been urged to put a knife on his neck, and the corners of Yu Ye's lips slowly opened, as if he was being accused gradually. The pointed bow has a beautiful arc, but also contains deadly murderous intent and danger.

She said softly: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your compliment."

Xu Jiao turned a blind eye to the palace people who were kneeling on the ground around her. Seeing Yu Ye had no other intentions, she went to the breakfast table next to her, leaving Yu Ye staring at her back for a while, and withdrew the smile on her lips , wondering whether Xu Jiao's words were contemptuous of herself, or unintentional.

She didn't think for long, when Xu Jiao's voice came from behind the curtain decorated in the hall: "Today is a holiday, there is no morning morning, Master Yu worked hard to watch for me last night, why don't you leave a meal. "

Before Yu Ye could speak, someone came in and whispered something into her ear.

Xu Jiao guessed that this person might not stay for dinner.

The real power is in his hands, but he is not the one sitting on the dragon chair. Yu Ye is just an ordinary general who cares about the emperor's heart. He should be busy with a lot of things.

Sure enough, as soon as the man finished speaking, Yu Ye looked at Xu Jiao: "I still have important matters to attend to, Your Highness will take care of it."

Xu Jiao wanted to say something polite to her, but she had already turned around and disappeared.

She could only look at the door, and put down the spoon in her hand after a while, resting her chin on one hand, wondering what she was thinking about.

The recently idle system popped up again: "Falling in love with you? Deep-rooted love?"

Xu Jiao answered it leisurely: "It's best not to grow, I'm too lazy to have an emotional scene."

After finishing speaking, she beckoned the palace servants next to her to come over and ordered the kitchen to make something and send it to Yu Ye's house. She no longer put her mind on this person, but concentrated on her own study.

……

afternoon.

Yu Ye had just come out of the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, listening to Jin Yiwei's order in her ear, sitting in the lobby of the old general's mansion, and noticed the butler waving for someone to serve dishes, so she glanced at the table and saw all It's plain, so I pick up the chopsticks.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he tasted it, he was stunned. This dish clearly looks like a melon, but it tastes like...meat?

She moved her cheeks twice, and her brows were already wrinkled. She didn't know what kind of tricks the kitchen was playing, and dared to disobey her orders like this. She had clearly ordered that she didn't want to see meat these few months.

"When" sounded.

It was the sound of chopsticks hitting the table.

Jin Yiwei, who was still on the table, was silent, and even the old housekeeper who had been with her was caught by her growing majesty, trembling with trembling voices, asking if the food was not to your taste.

Yu Ye didn't want to offend others, so he just said, "Call the head of today's kitchen."

But the housekeeper already knew what happened, and hurriedly interceded for the kitchen staff: "Master Yu, the kitchen... the dishes in the kitchen are not against your wishes, but a few days ago, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sent news from the palace, It is said that at the dining table, I saw that the adults did not touch meat. I guessed that you might not like meat, so I specially gave the kitchen a few recipes, and asked the kitchen to follow suit. The meat is made into vegetarian dishes, and they are all light. , just because I was afraid that you would lose your appetite if you found out... Today, I dared to make the decision and let it be presented, which really broke the rules. If you want to punish, punish me to make my own decisions."

The butler knelt down as he spoke, wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes, with a bit of sadness in his tone.

He just went out to do some shopping on the day when Yu's house was ransacked, so he avoided the disaster. He was already disheartened and planned to go back to his hometown and spend the rest of his life here, but Yu Ye was thinking about his old love, and returned them to his hometown. The people left behind took him back to the mansion, and he had watched Yu Ye grow up since he was a child, so he naturally had a kind of elder affection for her. Now he can't bear to see her suffer from such sequelae after taking revenge, and he is full of worry. The next said:

"You don't eat meat these days, and you have lost a lot of weight. I really can't bear to see you like this. If I meet the old general's wives in the future, I will have the shame to tell them that I have taken care of the little master until now... ..."

Yu Ye's expression changed after hearing this.

But she helped the old housekeeper up immediately: "Uncle Zou, get up, I just encountered too many things these days, and I have a poor appetite in midsummer, it's not what you imagined."

Seeing that her anger had withdrawn, the old butler dared to get up from the ground. He wanted to persuade her to take care of her body, but she was afraid that she would talk too much, so she confided a few words carefully, not wanting to disturb Yu Ye's appetite, so she backed down and walked out The hall began to weep.

Yu Ye stared at the dishes in front of him. They really didn't look like meat. As long as you don't look carefully, you can eat them easily, and the bite just now really didn't have any fishy smell.

She took another bite and was distracted by someone else.

Xu Jiao.

And that sentence she said: "Master Yu is really hard to please."

Combined with what she has done several times in front of him, it is not difficult for Yu Ye to find that the other party really wants to please him.

It's just that this little girl is not simple, not to mention her delicate thoughts, she is also very good at pretending. Many times, I can't figure out what that little guy is thinking.

If she is really supported on the throne, will this person also use such a calm expression to order the people around him to take her head?

……

Xu Jiao still doesn't know what kind of scheming Yu Ye thinks she is.

She had a faint stomachache since the afternoon, but at that time her class was not over yet, so she could only force herself to sit on the chair. After all the veterans who had come to class had left, she got up from the chair, But I heard Gong'e, who was serving beside me, exclaim in a low voice.

"Your Highness!"

Xu Jiao looked at it puzzled, and when she saw the other party's eyes focused on the clothes behind her, she already knew it in her heart.

She is Kwai Shui here.

No wonder the lower abdomen is swollen.

Gong'e wanted to invite the imperial doctor to come over to take a look, but Xu Jiao waved her hand so as not to disturb the imperial doctor. In her opinion, it was just a trivial matter. She changed all her clothes and took a warmer bath at night to get rid of the coldness on her body. up.

With the memory of the original owner, she knew after a little recollection that the pain in the stomach should be the root cause of the original owner's disease caused by being driven to sweep snow in winter when he was a child. , always have to pay back.

Seeing that she looked calm, Gong'e suppressed her panic, and only followed her instructions to complete the matter one by one.

But when it got dark, Xu Jiao still couldn't resist, she lay down on the bed ahead of time, wrapped in a quilt that was thicker than yesterday, and tried to fall asleep. There were already a few Tang women in the bed, but the pain didn't show how to get rid of it. .

Fortunately, her ability to endure pain is not bad, and she can respond freely to the care of people around her. Except for her complexion, which looks a little worse than usual, the rest is normal.

She frowned slightly when everyone around her retreated and there was no one around the bed.

The system asked her: "Why didn't you invite the imperial physician to see it?"

Xu Jiao answered it with her eyes closed: "It's just a small matter, I went to call the imperial doctor here, Yu Ye will definitely know the situation, she is very wary of me, and she likes to pretend to be superficial, I invited the imperial doctor, so She has to come here for all reason - recently I saw that she was entangled in the affairs of the whole palace, and she didn't eat much food. At this point, let her have a good rest in her own house and don't make this trip. "

System: "You are kind to her."

Xu Jiao gave a "hmm" and added: "The main reason is that my stomach hurts now, I'm too lazy to pretend to be with her, it's too much effort to talk to her."

That person suffered a major family change when he was young, and now he is in a high position. He is definitely not a heroine who can talk to others casually. She is a little different from the heroine Xu Jiao has seen before. That is when Xu Jiao came. , she was an adult, Xu Jiao couldn't erase those bad stories of her youth in advance.

What she is facing is a heroine who has suffered a lot and has completely controlled the plot.

The other party didn't need her rescue, and even held her life in his hands.

Xu Jiao didn't know if she was used to facing a heroine who would please her, so seeing Yu Ye's attitude that a normal person should have when facing chess pieces, she couldn't turn the corner.

She could clearly distinguish the difference between Yu Ye and Zheng Zhiyu from the previous world.

But she couldn't help wanting to be nice to this man.

Be caring.

Perhaps the empathy is a little too deep.

That relationship... After all, it had some influence on her.

So much so that when she clutched her stomach and curled up on the bed, she bit the quilt and cursed in a low voice: "Liar."

She promised that no matter where she was, she would come.

Obviously, I have already caught up with the previous world from that Western Fantasy world, why don't I come again now?

……

"Who is His Highness scolding?" A voice suddenly sounded beside the bed.

Xu Jiao's attention was all on chatting with the system, so she naturally ignored the outside world. She didn't hear the news that Yu Ye had entered the palace, and she didn't hear Yu Ye questioning the palace people what was going on with her.

Now suddenly hearing Yu Ye's voice, Xu Jiao seemed to hear thunder, raised her head to look at the bed, and saw that black figure again, the other party was wearing ordinary clothes now, not the black python robe official uniform that she had seen in the past , the clothes are very slim, which sets off her slender figure.

Xu Jiao didn't say a word, and Yu Ye didn't care about this little detail, and asked again: "Why didn't Your Highness invite the imperial physician to come and have a look?"

While speaking, she reached into the quilt and felt the wet sweat on Xu Jiao's neck. After a pause, seeing that Xu Jiao's complexion was pale, she subconsciously mobilized some internal energy to cover her abdomen. , rubbed gently.

Miraculously, Xu Jiao felt a scorching temperature penetrate into her abdomen, and even her limbs and bones, which couldn't be warmed up at all, were warmed up.

Pain lessened.

She belatedly realized that even though she had some skills and some moves, in this world, it was okay to dodge ordinary attacks, but she still couldn't deal with such internal force attacks.

This is where her physical fitness is poor, and she has no internal strength. If she had any, she would have used this good way to relieve pain just now.

Xu Jiao regained her strength, glanced at her weakly, and replied, "Don't alarm the imperial physician for trivial matters, but why is Lord Yu here?"

Yu Ye withdrew his hand, sat beside her bed, and said in a low voice: "Your Highness has a good memory. I only promised to personally protect His Highness yesterday. I didn't expect His Highness to forget about it today."

There was a hint of sarcasm in her voice.

Xu Jiao glanced at her lightly.

There were some thin red marks in the corners of her eyes that were pressed by her sleeping position. Coupled with her gaze at this moment, it was like a wave of light flowing in her eyes, and she was instantly amazed.

Yu Ye didn't know why she saw herself like this.

Just when she was about to ask, Xu Jiao said in a serious voice: "It's not that I have a bad memory——"

"It's just that some people's words don't count. I don't know which words to believe and which words to believe."

There was even a hint of soft complaint in the words.

like...

behave in a spoiled manner.

Yu Ye was stunned when he heard that.

Before she could react, Xu Jiao turned her head away and said in a low voice in this quiet indoor atmosphere: "My stomach hurts, and what I said was a bit confusing. I don't count it. Lord Yu, don't take it to heart."

But Yu Ye raised his hand in a strange way: "Chen... give Your Highness a rub again?"
