Huo Jiuge didn't expect Xiao Chengji to still be here. Is he really not afraid of rumors?As a prince, he was too close to the ministers of the court. To put it nicely, he made many friends, but to put it badly, he made many cronies.

I really don’t know what his head is made of!

Huo Jiuge secretly rejoiced in his heart: Fortunately, he had already established a clear relationship with him a long time ago, and the two of them were now in the same boat.

However, although the two have no relationship now, Xiao Chengji is still the prince after all, and he has always surpassed Huo Jiuge in terms of status.

When Huo Jiuge leaned over to say hello, he looked up and saw Huo Qingshang's eyes full of pride. Perhaps in her heart, from this moment on, she was already a head above Huo Jiuge.

She's like the kind of person who shows off her baby everywhere, hoping that everyone will know that she has climbed into the royal family.

"Jiuge, where are you going to take people? Looking at this young master, even though he is your friend, you can't take him outside or inside the courtyard?" Huo Qingshang reminded him pretending to be kind. .

After Han Zan and Wen Yan heard about it, they immediately noticed the smell of gunpowder. It turned out that the Rongguo Duke's mansion looked beautiful on the surface, but there were no less dirty things than those outside.

Han Zan immediately said: "Miss, I misunderstood. I am only responsible for protecting the safety of the two ladies. It is not what the lady thought."

His words not only explained his relationship with Huo Jiuge, but also insinuated Huo Qingshang's dirty thoughts and deliberately poured dirty water on her.

Sure enough, Huo Qingshang's expression changed instantly, especially in front of Xiao Chengji. She had to maintain her beautiful image, but Han Zan's words directly brought her back to her original shape.

Xiao Chengji squinted his eyes and looked at Han Zan, constantly searching for this person in his mind. Finally he found the person who matched him, "If I remember correctly, you should be in the Yulin Guard. Human right?"

Han Zan did not expect that he would be remembered by Xiao Chengji. Just as he was stunned, Xiao Chengji suddenly shouted loudly: "How brave! Even if you are a royal guard, you are not in the imperial city to protect the emperor's safety, but here you are. What kind of flower guardian! How many lives do you have, how dare you neglect your duties!"

Xiao Chengji's words were so frightening that everyone present did not dare to speak out. Wen Yan was even more frightened. She did not expect that she would be caught by the prince if she asked her cousin to come over to give a gift to her benefactor, and he was not easy to mess with. From the looks of it, it is estimated that the matter will not be solved so easily this time.

Han Zan was also sweating profusely. He didn't know where he had offended the prince to make him so angry.

He explained that he was taking a break, but Xiao Chengji deliberately made things difficult for him, so how could he listen to his explanation? He sneered, his tone still unyielding.

"The prince is quite leisurely. He opened a court here and became the lord of Qingtian." Huo Jiuge said leisurely, with a slight sarcasm flowing in his dark eyes.

"What do you mean?" Xiao Chengji heard the strangeness in her words and shouted angrily. "Didn't the prince hear this? Mr. Han is Miss Wen's cousin. Even though he is a Yulin Guard, it is not his time for official duties. He is just guarding his sister and worrying about what danger will happen to her. These people It's such a normal thing, why can't you understand him, my lord?" Huo Jiuge asked.

Now it was Xiao Chengji's turn to be speechless. Since the two broke off their engagement, her whole person has undergone earth-shaking changes. Huo Jiuge usually dared to look at her at all, but now she not only dared to look directly into her eyes , and even dared to make him unable to step down in public!
What kind of medicine did she take wrongly?

"Huo Jiuge! How did you talk to the prince?" Huo Changqing scolded her: "Why don't you apologize to the prince quickly!"

Huo Changqing was afraid of missing the opportunity to claim credit in front of Xiao Chengji, so he flattered him so much that he pretended to teach her a lesson for Xiao Chengji.

After hearing this, Huo Jiuge only thought it was funny. If he had known this, he should not have let his injury heal so quickly. He should have let him lie in bed for a few more days, so that he would have a long memory!
Huo Jiuge smiled at him and said: "My cousin's voice is so loud, it seems that his body is fully recovered." She looked at Huo Changqing's broken legs and said with a faint look: "He is indeed a miracle doctor. His medical skills are superb. Jiu Ge was worried for a long time after hearing about your fall from a horse that day, cousin. It seems that I was worrying too much."

Huo Changqing's heart went crazy when she saw him, but he couldn't show his timidity in front of Xiao Chengji. What would happen if the prince knew that he was frightened by a young girl? He coughed lightly and pretended to be calm. : "Don't change the subject. I asked you to apologize to the prince. Have you said it?"

"Your Majesty is generous, why would you care about me, Tong Yan Wuji, but cousin you -" When Huo Jiuge said this, his eyes never left Huo Changqing's legs, "Why are you so nervous? You don't know. I thought the prince was so unkind that he was too embarrassed to punish me and asked you to take the lead."

"You..." Huo Changqing was about to retort, but Xiao Chengji interrupted him: "Don't reason with this uneducated girl, or you will lose your identity!"

Xiao Chengji looked at Huo Jiuge, his eyes as if the surface of the lake had been wrinkled by the wind. No one knew the depth of the lake, and no one knew what he was thinking now.

Huo Jiuge was not angry after hearing his words. Instead, she smiled and said, "Your Majesty is right. Jiuge is just an uneducated girl. Naturally, she is not worthy of talking to you, Your Majesty."

"Just like cousin Qing Shang said before, this is the inner courtyard of Duke Rong's mansion. Even if you are in love with your cousin, you shouldn't just appear here with such an unjust name. If you really do it for Cousin, if you think about it, you should inform the emperor and the queen and ask them to marry you two. In this case, no matter how you come in and out of the Rongguo Duke's mansion, no one will talk behind your back."

"After all, rumors are like a scourge that can kill people. As a man, you don't have to care about your reputation, but our Qingshang cousin can't!"

"What the hell are you talking about?" Xiao Chengji was furious. He had always behaved like a gentleman. Even when he was angry, he had to keep his emotions and anger a secret, but this was the only time he broke the rules with Huo Jiuge. Quit.

"Why am I talking nonsense?" Huo Jiuge pretended to be surprised: "Don't you like my cousin?"

Xiao Chengji couldn't resist Huo Jiuge's rhetorical question. He didn't answer, but fell into silence. Upon seeing this, Huo Jiuge immediately struck while the iron was hot: "That's why Jiuge was abrupt. I misunderstood your relationship. I really Damn it!"
