Princess Jiaojiao is fierce and charming, making him blush and heartbeat

Chapter 20

Xie Liangyue let out a long sigh in her heart.

Now that she has Ji Chulan, she has a soldier she can use, so does she still want Qiao Ji to take risks for herself?
In his previous life, he took such a big risk to save himself, but what will happen to him after he dies?
Xie Liangyue didn't dare to think about it anymore, she closed her eyes to calm down her mood.

"Is there something on the princess' mind?"

Xie Liangyue looked at him through the prestige, forced a smile: "What?"

Qiao Ji's voice was low, and her words were slightly hoarse: "The princess doesn't need to defend me."

He lowered his eyes, resisted the sourness in his voice, and continued: "If there is anything that must be done, I can help you. The reason why the princess brought Ji Chulan to her side is because she needs help for what she wants to do, right? ?He went out from here just now, and I saw what he was holding in his hand."

Xie Liangyue's expression moved slightly, she opened her mouth, but she didn't know what to say.

"The princess can entrust things to him, but not to me."

Qiao Ji laughed at himself: "Don't I have the slightest trust in the heart of the princess?"

"No, no." Xie Liangyue was overwhelmed by his sudden sadness.

"I do entrust him with something, but it's not what you think, and I don't distrust you, it's just"

Halfway through her words, she met Qiao Ji's deep eyes, and the grievance inside seemed to suck her in.

Xie Liangyue turned her head, "Forget it, you go out first."

Qiao Ji closed his eyes when he heard the sound, he sighed, he possessed himself towards Xie Liangyue's back, and backed out.

Hearing the sound of the door being closed, Xie Liangyue breathed a sigh of relief. She fell into the chair and closed her eyes heavily.

The rain outside was still falling wantonly, and the dense black clouds pressed down, making people feel a strong sense of suffocation.

Qiao Ji just sat quietly by the window of the inn, watching the few pedestrians on the street without moving.

It wasn't until a carriage passed by him, and the wind blew the curtains to reveal the appearance of the people inside, that his expression unconsciously changed.

The last time he met Qi Yujin was at Hongyun Temple in the suburbs of Beijing.

Later, although Xie Liangyue's foot injury left him behind, but meeting him now reminded Qiao Ji of the malicious look in his eyes when he saw Xie Liangyue.

Qiao Ji's gaze gradually drifted away with the carriage outside the window, and he didn't look back until it completely disappeared.
-
That night, Qiao Ji had a dream.

In the dream, he undoubtedly dreamed of Xie Liangyue, but what was different from the past was that what he saw was not the beautiful picture when he first saw it, nor was it his imagination in his usual dreams.

His girl was tortured to the brink of death, her clothes were ragged, her black hair was scattered, and she fell on the ground in a state of embarrassment.

He couldn't see her face clearly, he could only be sure that she was alive by the ups and downs of her breathing.

In front of her was a person wearing bright yellow clothes, followed by a person dressed as a court lady, holding a tray in his hand, lowered his head and said something to her, suddenly her body froze, and slowly raised her head.

Qiao Ji stared at the girl in front of her, until her entire face was exposed.

"boom"!
A loud noise made Qiao Ji open his eyes instantly.

He stared at the roof so tightly that he forgot how to breathe for a long time.

"boom"!
Another bang.

Qiao Ji turned over in a jerk, he regained his thoughts, and panted heavily.

His eyes were scarlet, his head was sweating profusely, and his face was full of disbelief and surprise.

The rain outside the window hadn't stopped yet, Qiao Ji got out of bed and found the source of the sound.

There were bursts of thunder, and there was only rain and fog spreading in the sky of Meizhou, as if the sunrise could not be seen in the future.

He collected himself and recalled what he had just seen in his dream.

Why did the princess become like that?When she finally raised her head, it was obvious that she had lost her eyes, and there were only two bloody holes still bleeding.

Qiao Ji didn't know why he had such a strange dream. He convinced himself that it was just a dream, but the reality of the dream made him unable to ignore it.

He wiped his face, put on his clothes and went to Xie Liangyue's door.

It was already late at night, and Qiao Ji was leaning against the door, with uneasiness still in his eyes.

Suddenly he heard movement in the room, followed by Xie Liangyue's soft exclamation.

Before he could react, his body had already taken the first step. He kicked open the door and quickly entered the room.

He ran to where Xie Liangyue was, and protected him behind him.

When he realized that there was no danger, he breathed a sigh of relief and turned around and asked softly, "Is the Princess okay?"

Xie Liangyue was taken aback by him, and now she was sitting by the bed, showing a dull state.

"It's all right."

She regained her senses and asked in wonder, "Why are you here?"

Qiao Ji was stopped by her, turned her head in embarrassment, and coughed softly: "I can't sleep, so I came out and walked around, and I heard some movement in the princess' room."

He realized that he was probably making a joke, and his voice became smaller and smaller.

Xie Liangyue smiled "puchi", looked at Qiao Ji's reddened ears, and had no choice but to explain: "I couldn't sleep either, so I wanted to get out of bed to drink a glass of water, but I accidentally bumped into the foot of the bed."

"Are you injured?" Qiao Ji turned around immediately after hearing the words, and asked nervously.

"No," Xie Liangyue shook her head with a smile, "Since the bodyguard Qiao can't sleep, it's just right, sit down and talk to me for a while."

Qiao Ji's eyes widened instantly, he lowered his head, and said with a little embarrassment: "It's too late, this is against the rules."

Xie Liangyue looked at him amusedly: "If I let you sit down, how can there be so many words."

He sat down uneasily, and looked even more awkward watching Xie Liangyue close the door.

Xie Liangyue ignored him, she walked to the window on her own, looked at the heavy rain, and sighed deeply.

"I don't know if the father and the others are going well."

Although she knew the final result, but she really felt it personally, and she was still deeply worried.

"My lord is supporting the sea and the sky, Meizhou will surely overcome the difficulties as soon as possible."

Xie Liangyue raised her eyebrows and turned to look at him, "You really dare to say that you trust my father so much?"

Qiao Ji nodded, his eyes were like torches, and his eyes were full of determination.

Xie Liangyue was intimidated by his eyes, she couldn't help blurting out: "Why?"

"My lord, you once saved me."

This was something Xie Liangyue never thought of, and she asked: "When?"

Qiao Ji didn't dare to look into her eyes anymore, he lowered his eyes and said softly, "Seven years ago, Suiyang."

Xie Liangyue remembered.

Indeed, there was a famine in Suiyang seven years ago, and the emperor ordered his father to fight the disaster.

As a native of Suiyang, Qiao Ji must have suffered from that famine.

She walked towards him and patted him on the shoulder lightly, "It's all over."

The light in Qiao Ji's eyes dimmed, and she really couldn't remember.

He raised his head, met Xie Liangyue's caring eyes, and forced a smile.

Perhaps it was Qiao Ji's trust in his father that lowered Xie Liangyue's defenses.

She sat down beside him, put her chin in one hand and murmured: "I have something I have to do, although I'm not sure if it will be successful, but since I have the opportunity, I always try it, it's my wish .”

She paused and asked Qiao Ji, "What about you? Do you have any wishes?"

Qiao Ji looked at her, with emotions in his eyes that made it hard to distinguish. After a while, he said cautiously:
"I wish, I wish to do what you wish."
