I became the apex of my nemesis by acting

After giving all orders, Xiao Muzi went back to the backyard and knocked on the door: "Master, the third prince is visiting."

There was no answer from the door for a long time, Xiao Muzi wanted to knock on the door again, but the door was pulled open before his hand was on the door, and Bai Chengjue stood in front of Xiao Muzi with his long hair loose.

Bai Chengjue said softly: "He went to prepare lunch for me. He should be in the kitchen. I will let him go as soon as he comes back."

Xiao Muzi nodded quickly: "Okay, as soon as the master comes back, let the master dress up and rush to the front hall as soon as possible."

"My lord, you can't go in here!"

King Li, who was supposed to be waiting in the front courtyard, barged into Xue Beiwang's inner courtyard without any courtesy.

The beauty in front of him was dressed in a wide lining, her collarbone was slightly open, her clear collarbone was faintly visible, her neck was clean and slender, Wang Li looked at the beauty for a long time and did not regain his senses until the beauty closed the door, and then he slowly looked away.

Seeing King Li's eyes eager to enter the house with Bai Chengjue, Xiao Muzi hurriedly stepped in front of King Li, blocking the door with his body: "The tea is ready in the front hall, please move your lord."

King Li looked at the closed door, and said softly: "Wang'er originally made a mess of Wu Guo's affairs because of this person. The portrait is only three points of charm, and the real person is indeed better."

Xiao Muzi said: "My lord, this is the inner courtyard of the Seventh Prince. I'm afraid it's unreasonable for my lord to stay for a long time."

King Li slapped his hand, causing the corners of his lips to be damaged, and five palm marks appeared on his cheeks: "You are a slave, and you are worthy of talking too much in front of this king."

"Although the lord is the elder brother of His Highness, the people who live in this courtyard are His Highness's outer room after all. If the lord stays in this courtyard for a long time and spread the word, he may be blamed by others."

As soon as the words fell, King Li pinched Xiao Muzi's jaw and pressed it against the door, and forcefully removed Xiao Muzi's jaw. Facing the door, tears flowed for a while.

King Li squeezed Xiao Muzi's jaw, gritted his teeth and said, "Wang'er can't teach you well. This king can teach you. You are just a slave. If you don't know how to speak, this king will pull out your tongue."

Hearing the sound, Bai Chengjue opened the door and took hold of King Li's wrist with one hand, and pulled the small wood behind him with the other hand, and entered the room: "Don't the royal family of the Chen Kingdom know what etiquette is?" The appearance of her is not as gaudy as that of ordinary brothel girls.

Before King Li could speak, Bai Chengjue let go and closed the door again, and hung the latch.

Outside the house, King Li slowly returned to his senses, looking at the closed door, rubbing his fingertips against his wrist.

Such a beauty, standing here alone, makes people want to destroy it...

After staying for a while, King Li finally turned and left as if he still hadn't finished.

At this moment in the room, Bai Chengjue handed the square handkerchief to Xiao Muzi: "Does it hurt?"

Xiao Muzi took the veil and covered his side face, just opened his mouth, but closed it hastily again in pain, tears fell one by one, he waited for a long time before opening his mouth with difficulty: "Min Wang shouldn't have come forward rashly."

"If I don't protect you into the house, if you break your neck, you won't be able to get it back."

Thinking of the stern look of King Li just now, Xiao Muzi couldn't help holding his neck and gasped: "I didn't expect that King Min would worry about the life and death of his subordinates."

Bai Chengjue rested his chin on one hand, and said with a slight smile, "He uses you the most easily, and I'm afraid it will be difficult for someone else to adapt."

Xiao Muzi curled his lips, covered his aching jawbone, and almost cried out.

Bai Chengjue said: "Is this person always so arrogant in his residence?"

"I was young when my mother died of the epidemic, and was sent to the care of Concubine Lou Gui, the mother of King Li. Concubine Lou Gui had a son and heirs, and I couldn't help but care about him. King Li even took the name of my elder brother. Suppressing and driving everywhere, the master is not smart enough to be bullied by King Li for so many years!"

Recalling the appearance of Xue Beiwang calling his mother and concubine after he was seriously injured, Bai Chengjue's eyes sank, but his face still had the same smile as usual: "My jaw doesn't hurt anymore."

Xiao Muzi pressed his jaw with his hand, and said aggrievedly: "It hurts, it hurts when I speak."

"Then stop talking."

Not long after, Xue Beiwang opened the door and entered the room with porridge, and saw Xiao Muzi sitting beside Bai Chengjue, his side face was red and swollen from the beating, and there were bruises left by King Li's finger force near his jaw.

Xue Beiwang asked, "He's here?"

Xiao Muzi looked at Xue Bei with tears in his eyes: "Master, he started to do it as soon as he came, and even pinched and dislocated his lower jaw."

Xue Beiwang looked at Bai Chengjue worriedly and asked, "Did he do anything to you?" Seeing Bai Chengjue shaking his head, Xue Beiwang's expression softened a little.

"Master, regardless of the dissuasion of his subordinates, King Li insisted on coming to the inner courtyard, and almost ran into the young master. His subordinates' faces are still burning with pain."

Xue Bei looked sternly and said: "It was you who overstepped. Brother Huang always has a clear distinction between love and hatred. If you hadn't offended him with your words, Brother Huang would definitely not have done anything. You and I will go to the front yard to apologize to Brother Huang."

"I... this subordinate knows his mistake."

The two got up to leave, and the female slave's greeting came from outside the house, and then the female slave brought the sweet cake into Bai Chengjue's room. It's a familiar face.

It was also this person who helped Qin Yinglan speak last time.

Xue Beiwang was particularly stubborn in what he decided. If he really gave Bai Chengjue a sweet cake, he would definitely bring the snack along with the porridge, and there was no need for others to prepare it separately.

Bai Chengjue rested his chin on one hand, and softly said in a female voice: "Your Highness arranged a special trip to serve you in my courtyard?"

The little girl didn't look up, she put the cake on the table, and said timidly: "...Yes."

"The little girl looks so cute." Bai Chengjue stopped stirring the porridge, "If you serve me by my side, I will speak well for you in front of His Highness, and after His Highness marries the princess, she will be entrusted with the concubine. My position in His Highness's heart is definitely inseparable from your future."

The pinky white fingertips lightly tapped the table, looking at the little girl in front of her with a pair of smiling eyes, her frowns and smiles revealed the charm that a girl in a flower building should have.

"The servant thanked the girl."

Bai Chengjue picked up a piece of pastry and handed it to the woman: "Try it."

"Thank you, miss." The woman took the pastry from Bai Chengjue with trembling fingers.

Bai Chengjue gave up and said, "I'm so timid, it's all right, I don't need you to take care of me here, step back..."

"Yes."

Watching the woman leave, Bai Chengjuan pushed the cake on the plate aside with his fingertips, and slowly blew on the white porridge in front of him, the smile on his lips gradually faded.

……

King Li was sitting at the head seat in the front hall drinking tea, this appearance did not regard himself as an outsider.

Poor little Muzi was forced to apologize in front of King Li. King Li took a sip of hot tea and said in a low voice: "If all the slaves in Wang'er's mansion are so unruly, drive them out, Brother Huang will find some well-behaved ones for you."

Xue Beiwang respectfully said: "Xiao Muzi has been by my side since childhood, and I will discipline him well in the future, so that today's offensive behavior will never happen again."

"Wang'er, don't be bullied by this slave. If this slave does the same next time, I will cut off Wang'er's tongue for Wang'er." Li Wang narrowed his eyes slightly, and Xiao Muzi's back felt cold when he saw it. Diao Nu will not be able to speak in the future."

Xue Beiwang suppressed the anger in his heart, continued to maintain his well-behaved appearance as a younger brother, and pretended to be angry at Xiao Muzi: "Did you hear? If there is another time, I must not be able to protect you."

Xiao Muzi repeatedly kowtowed and said: "I dare not, thank you two masters for your generosity."

King Li gave up and signaled Xiao Muzi to back down. Muzi glanced at Xue Beiwang, then got up and left with his lower lip tightly pressed.

Only the two brothers remained in the front hall.

"Brother, I came here this time for the purpose of retiring the engagement. I know what kind of marriage you rejected? Among all the brothers, the emperor only pointed out the marriage of the general to you. It is a kindness to you, sir. The general holds the military power, and you are brave and good at fighting. With the help of General Qin, you can have your own future in the future. How can you ignore it for the sake of beauty?"

At this point, King Li leaned towards Xue Beiwang: "Those who plan big things should not tie their hands and feet for the love of their children, they should kill them!"

Xue Beiwang stood up suddenly: "No!"

Li Wang said in a strict voice: "Wang'er, in the future, if you want to gain power for your brother, what kind of beauty do you want, and you must not make mistakes because of beauty."

"He's different, I can never let him be half wronged because of me!"

"Xue Beiwang!"

Xue Beiwang looked at King Li and said without a word: "If it's about his safety, I have nothing to talk to the emperor about."

"If this king loses power, Wang'er, do you think that you are in deep trouble, and this brothel woman will still love you? I know who she is. Before you had an accident, she went to another place, and now she is back by your side , but it was only after losing the favor of King Wu Guomin that I remembered that you were taken advantage of, but it's a pity that you, an idiot, still don't change your mind."

"He was born in a humble life, and he lived a life of fear and hope that someone will protect him. If he wants to protect him, I can give it to him. Why not?"

The teacup in King Li's hand smashed to pieces on the ground: "Okay, then I will let you see if today's persistence is worth it or not!"

Seeing him leave angrily, Xue Beiwang's eyes grew colder.

Not long after, Xiao Muzi walked out slowly from the back hall, the swelling on his face hadn't subsided yet.

Xue Beiwang said softly, "We will get these back in the future."

"Master, I think he has a bad intention towards King Min, and his stay in the inner courtyard today is probably out of evil intentions."

Xue Beiwang asked, "How did he come out?"

"This subordinate was going to look for you in King Min's room. When King Min opened the door for his subordinate, he bumped into His Highness Li Wang who broke into the inner courtyard. The Lord told me to be careful not to let King Li take advantage of you. , but he stayed in the inner courtyard all the time, King Min closed the door, and he was still looking at the front of the house, the subordinates were worried that he would disturb King Min, so they had no choice but to stop him."

Looking at the scars on Xiao Muzi's face, Xue Beiwang's anger had nowhere to vent.

Already cautious in front of King Li, pretending to be different, and handling the facts very properly in the past year, King Li still intends to replace Xue Beiwang's confidants one by one, and now he is even more focused on his valet.

"When the doctor comes to see his condition, you will also wait in the room to treat the scars on his face."

"Master, this little injury is not a problem. I will heal after I go back and apply the medicine myself. The Holy One has always favored you. It will inevitably make King Li worry that you will become an obstacle in his future. The more you appear to be serious In front of the king, Fu Xiao acted lowly, and put his elder brother's words first in everything, so that Wang Li would not attack the master early. Don't forget that five years ago, the second prince died in the forest farm during hunting, and then the fifth prince was assassinated. You almost lost your life in the country of Wu,

"King Li's methods are so despicable, and his brothers and sisters can be killed quickly. Regardless of whether the master can get a share of the battle for the heir, if he can save his life, there is still a way out. There is no need to mess with his subordinates. King Li is suspicious, after all, except for the Lord, only the Fourth Prince Jing Wang can fight against King Li because of his status as the son of the empress."

Xue Beiwang nodded.

Brother Sanhuang had the most outstanding political achievements in front of his father, but he was still not favored by his father. At that time, the prince and brother Sanhuang were involved in the assassination case of brother Wuhuang at the same time. The prince finally committed suicide by swallowing gold in the East Palace. He worked hard but was frustrated but was framed by others.

Now it suddenly dawned on me that the one behind the scene who held the thread and held the knife and pushed each of the sons favored by the father into a dead end is not this depressed person!

When Xue Beiwang returned to the room, Bai Chengjue had finished his porridge and was sitting reading a book. Xue Bei saw a piece of sweet cake on the table, and hurriedly sat down beside Bai Chengjue to feel his pulse.

Bai Chengjue said with a slight smile, "Are you competing with the doctor again?"

"I'm worried there's something wrong with this cookie."

"I didn't eat, I rewarded that maid." Bai Chengjue closed the book, "I never thought that there would be an eyeliner in your house. Your imperial brother is so suspicious, can he sleep at night?"

Xue Beiwang was surprised: "You know?"

"You have never been serious about losing your temper with him. He was wronged outside the house today. Even if I can't stand it, why are you talking about you? The two of you were bumped into by slaves just outside the house. That girl and Shang This time I helped the servant girls of the Qin Mansion to pass the note all by one person, how can there be so many coincidences in this world." Bai Chengjue took a sip of warm water, leaned on Xue Bei's shoulder and said, "I'm afraid that brother of yours is still looking forward to fighting with Miss Qin outside. , jealous for you."

"...Did you feel uncomfortable when you saw me swimming in the lake with Miss Qin that day?"

Yuan and Xue Beiwang were talking about serious business, never would they have imagined that this idea would turn out to be so novel.

Bai Chengjue sighed lightly and shook his head: "You and Ms. Qin are standing together with a gloomy face like an enemy. I feel uncomfortable for Ms. Qin when I stand in the distance. I don't know if she is blind. You incomprehensible wood."

Xue Beiwang was aggrieved by Bai Chengjue's words: "What about you?"

Bai Chengjue smiled: "If you are as gentle and caring to others as you are to me, I'm afraid I will throw you into the lake that day."
