Senior sister, have you sold swords today?

Chapter 37 Stealing Fragrance Garden

Even though the eldest princess likes romance, the peaceful atmosphere in the Thien Xiang Garden, which is crowded with faces, seems not to be affected at all.

But not everyone's heart is on Xia Shupi, so these people don't bother to fight. As for those who care about the princess, they are not willing to fight.

The Pixiang Garden is divided into multiple rooms, either close or far from each other. Most of the artificial lakes are dug around these elegant rooms, forming a crescent shape. They are also decorated with caves, bridges, boats and water lilies. The light of flowers and shadows on the water are extremely elegant.

The rooms surrounding the center of the Crescent Lake are the most peaceful and tranquil. To enter there, you need to pass through a cobblestone path with bamboo forests on both sides, and finally reach the courtyard surrounded by golden butterflies.

Wuyouju in the middle is the residence of Mianshou Zhanyi, and on the left and right are Guiyanxuan and Laiyizhai. These three nicknames were given by Xia Shu.

There are swings, deck chairs, stone-carved tables and stools in the courtyard, and the breeze comes through the lake, bringing moist and cool water vapor.

In the sky above Guiyanxuan, a carrier pigeon fluttered its wings and flew away, and the handsome figure who walked out of the house and into the yard was none other than Yun Que.

Three months ago, after he chopped Shi Yi and threw her off the cliff, he handed the blood-stained Wuji Sword to Xia Shuti. After that, he set off on his way back to the capital alone. Of course, before setting off, he had to clean it first. There was blood all over his body, but when he looked at his reflection in the water, it was as if he had emerged from a pool of blood, so red that it was hot and dazzling.

After returning to the capital, he thought that even if she was not dead, the two of them would never see each other again, but he received news that Shi Yi had arrived in the capital and signed up to participate in the new round of the One in a Hundred Talent Competition this month.

He knew that she hated him and planned revenge and getting back her master's Wuji Sword.

I just didn't expect that the day when we meet again would come so early.

In the courtyard, Zhan Ye, who was swaying on the swing, noticed Yun Que, who looked slightly hurried.

He couldn't help blinking curiously and asked: "Brother Yunque, are you worried about anything? I always thought you were a cold-blooded and ruthless person."

Yunque paused and his eyes rested on Zhan Ye's open palm. There was a wriggling black Gu worm on it, and it was covered with dense and furry tentacles.

The next moment, the small black bug burrowed into Zhan Ye's palm, and emerged again within a few seconds. The Gu bug, full of essence and blood, glowed with ruddy luster, and curled itself into a round ball, as if falling asleep.

However, such a strange scene was filled with love and compassion in the eyes of this young man dressed in warm red clothes. He gently stroked the soft little guy to avoid disturbing it.

Seeing this scene, Yunque Qingming's eyebrows were not disturbed, and his expression was normal. He just smiled lightly and said, "You are using yourself to feed Gu again. You can raise a house full of weird little animals and even sleep with them." People who talk about others are cold-blooded and ruthless."

"Small animals are much more loyal and warm than humans!" Zhan Ye immediately defended.

Suddenly he thought of something and nervously winked at Yunque and made a silent gesture: "Shh, don't tell the princess! If she knows that there may be bugs scurrying in my body when I see her sometimes, she will definitely do it again. You’ve been keeping your distance from me for a long time!”

At this point, he frowned and murmured: "I begged the princess for a long time before she allowed me to raise whatever I wanted in the house..."

Zhan Ye was brought into the mansion by the eldest princess a year and a half ago.

He was 15 years old when he first arrived, looking weak, dull and suspicious.

He locked himself in the house all day long and did not allow anyone to come near. The servants had to leave the food at the door, although the food remained motionless afterward.After Xia Shutiao sent him here, he heard that his mother suddenly fell seriously ill and went to the palace to stay with her for three days, so he also went on a hunger strike for three full days.

Back at home, Xia Shu overheard the news and went to visit. As soon as he opened the door, he was hit hard on the head by a pillow, followed by an angry and hoarse roar from the boy.

"Go away!"

Xia Shu quickly took the soft pillow with his eyes and opened his lips with a helpless smile: "Are you sure you want me to leave? Then I will really leave?"

Hearing the voice of his heart, Zhan Ye turned his head in shock, and his pale and bloodless face was instantly covered with surprise.

He rushed over in a hurry, hugged the woman's waist tightly, buried his chin on her shoulder, and muttered half-complainingly and half-satisfiedly.

"The princess is a liar! Since you took me away from the Witch Valley, why did you leave me here alone! It's better to let me stay in the valley and continue to be a container for the old wizard to raise Gu..."

At the end of his speech, his voice became smaller and smaller, mixed with choked cries.

Xia Shuqi knew how he was tortured in Wu Valley, and she also knew that it was wrong to leave in a hurry three days ago. She quickly patted his back and said like a child: "Okay, okay, it's my fault. , I apologize to you. If you want to cry, just cry. After you finish crying, you have to eat obediently. Although I promise to help you become a real living person, if you are unwilling to accept the outside world, you should still close yourself. Physically and mentally, staying here is no different from Wu Valley, right?"

Zhan Ye sobbed, then hummed softly and pouted, "right but wrong!"

Xia Shu squinted and asked with a smile: "What's wrong? What's wrong?"

"The last thing I said is right, but the first thing I said is wrong. I won't shed tears over such a trivial matter!" He explained solemnly.

"That's right, men don't shed tears easily. If they cry over trivial things, they are really worse than women." Xia Shupi immediately expressed his appreciation.

Hearing this, Zhan Ye's face was full of pride. This feeling of being recognized made him very happy.

Xia Shu stole his wrist and walked to the dressing table, throwing the pillow back on the bed.

Sitting him in front of the mirror, she picked up a wooden comb to comb the boy's messy hair, and then said patiently: "Since he is a man, can he eat and sleep on his own even if I am not present? I I can assure you that there is nothing strange in the meals served by the servants, and no one will harm you here."

Zhan Ye lowered his face hesitantly, his eyes full of fear.

Xia Shu knew that a person's heart knot could not be easily solved, so she changed the topic and deliberately teased herself: "Just now, someone didn't see clearly who the person was, so he just threw a pillow over. If he had a Were the wooden sticks and iron rods also thrown over?"

"Then I, the eldest princess, am really going to make a big joke. I was attacked by a man in my own house. Then the city will definitely spread the news that the eldest princess is a ghost under the peonies. She is really a top-notch beauty that has never been seen before or since. She’s a girl!”

Sure enough, as soon as he heard these words, Zhan Ye's face turned pale. He quickly turned around, looked up at her, and explained urgently: "I didn't want to kill the princess! If I had a wooden stick or an iron rod in my hand, then I must not have killed her. I will throw it! I was just too angry just now. I was afraid that I would not be able to control myself and do something more terrible, so I wanted to use a pillow to fight off the people who came close to me. Princess, I don’t want to hurt anyone..."
