Raid

Chapter 401
Since that day, although Li Shengxi didn't say anything, Xiang Huai clearly felt that he had gained greater freedom in Prince Ning's Mansion.

His actions are no longer restricted like others, although he still has to be asked where to go.

If he wanted to see Li Shengxi, he didn't need to go through Rong Zhi again, he could ask for a meeting on his own, as long as Li Shengxi was in luck.

He even got the chance to serve pen and ink by Li Shengxi's side, all this shows that Li Shengxi has great trust in him.

Xiang Huai secretly rejoiced.

On this day, he was still studying ink for Li Shengxi.

Li Shengxi suddenly said, "Mr. Xiang, you are the nephew of the Minister of the Household Department, are you close to the Minister of the Household Department?"

Xiang Huai Yanmo's hand paused slightly, and he raised his head, only to find that Li Shengxi was not looking at him, but continued to critique with his head down, as if the question just now was just a random question.

It's just that Rong Zhi on the side looked at him curiously.

Xiang Huai lowered his head again, "Although I have relatives with the Minister of the Household Department, they are distant relatives after all. I can't say how close they are, and they are not familiar with each other. Why did Your Highness suddenly ask this?"

"It's nothing. It's just that this person is not simple."

"What do you mean by this?" Xiang Huai was puzzled, but he was trying to figure out the meaning of Li Shengxi's words in his mind.

"He is very good at protecting himself." Li Shengxi commented.

Hubu Shangshu made it clear that he didn't stand in line, and he was very likely to be Li Rui's person. If such a person could survive a round under Brother Brother's hands, wouldn't he be very good at protecting himself?

"Huh?" Xiang Huai still didn't quite understand.

It's just that Li Shengxi didn't intend to point out any more.

Afterwards, he couldn't help but ask Rong Zhi for advice, Rong Zhi just smiled and said: "Your Majesty, why should you care about this? Since you are serving His Highness, you only need to make His Highness feel at ease. Why bother trying to figure out His Highness's words and deeds. Don't worry about it." That’s all, it’s better not to speculate on the affairs of the government, melon fields and plums.”

Xiang Huai's expression froze slightly, and Rong Zhi's words "melon fields and plums" reminded him very well that Li Shengxi did not fully trust him now, and he asked too many questions at this time, maybe he would be suspected by Li Shengxi.

He has to grasp the proportion of it by himself.

However, he didn't think that Li Shengxi would just ask casually.A person like Li Shengxi probably has more eyes than hair, and if he said such a sentence for no reason, he might have some deep meaning.

In the palace, chess academy.

Gu Yao and Li Heng played against each other.The round ended quickly, and it was no surprise that the little emperor lost.

"Jiulang, no matter inside or outside, you will never give in to me when playing chess." The little emperor couldn't help feeling emotional.

"The Holy Majesty has made great progress this year. If we continue to practice hard, it will not be difficult to win." Gu Yao didn't say anything else, but encouraged him.

It's just that the pun is obvious.

"I hope." The little emperor chuckled, and then a servant sent a letter up. The little emperor didn't shy away from Gu Yao, and opened it to read it. After reading it, he looked a little smug. At that time, the young and mature attitude.

"It's a letter from Xiang Huai. I knew that among so many people, only Xiang Huai could catch my aunt's eyes." The little emperor smiled and shook his head, then handed the letter to Gu Yao.

Gu Yao glanced at the letter, "Why?"

"Xiang Huai is exactly like my aunt's old friend." The little emperor said.

"Old friend?" Gu Yao was puzzled.

"I heard Brother Yong mentioned that my aunt had a lover when she was young, but unfortunately that person didn't know how to praise him, so he didn't want to take a step forward. Later, my aunt saw him again. Unexpectedly, he became a A rebel. The so-called love-hate entanglement, although my aunt deeply hates this person for deceiving her, there was a portrait of this person hanging in the study for a while."

Although the little emperor is not on the same front as Li Shengxi, but at a certain point he and Li Xun have the same opinion. No matter how ambitious Li Shengxi is, she is also the best woman in the country. No girl can compare with her. Back then Qu Zhili really doesn't know how to praise.

Gu Yao's hand paused slightly, and he looked at the little emperor in disbelief, "With the nature of the eldest princess, she would only hate this person's deception deeply, why would she still hang paintings in the house."

"This is not a conflict. The lover was true before, and he has been cheating since then. Faced with the betrayer, you should kill yourself. As for hanging the painting in the room, it is probably just difficult to let go of the good old days." The little emperor analyzed, and they li The family members are cruel.

Aunt and Aye are in the same line. Although Aunt seems to value love and righteousness, she will only destroy anyone who touches her bottom line.

The lover was true before, and the deception is true since then, the feelings are true, and the murderous intention has never disappeared.

Gu Yao agrees with this sentence very much.

It's just that Li Shengxi has never been someone who is hard to let go of, she has never been sober.

Not to mention the subsequent betrayal, even the previous responsibilities were enough for Li Shengxi to let go of the past. She would definitely not be a woman addicted to love.

"Scholar's procrastination, you can still say it. Women's procrastination, you can't say it." This sentence is not suitable for Li Shengxi, and not all women are addicted to love.

If the opponent is a woman, then you can't just think with the "fixed" "female thinking".People are inherently diverse.

There are men who like red makeup, and women who like arms.Such men and women, they are still men and women, and their gender will not change because of preferences and habits.

Just like a woman like Li Shengxi, who can say she is a man?

She hangs the painting in the house, I'm afraid there is no deep meaning.

"It's just that a restrained and sober person like the eldest princess really knows how to seduce beautiful men? Moreover, the deliberate and similar appearance may arouse the jealousy and suspicion of others." Maybe there is also aversion and disgust, Gu Yao thought of this , looking down slightly, the support of the thumb quickly slid across the pulp of the index finger, and there was a slight pain in the pulp of the finger.

"Deliberately similar looks will arouse jealousy and suspicion, but the looks are given by the parents, and it is not Xiang Huai who wants to have this appearance. What does this have to do with Xiang Huai? Even if my aunt doubts, she should also doubt me. I am the general Xiang Huai. It's just that my aunt's suspicion of me has never disappeared." The little emperor is very self-aware of this, and now he and his aunt are suspicious of each other, and they don't trust each other.

So what's the point of adding an extra layer of suspicion.

But Xiang Huai was different. Once my aunt believed that Xiang Huai was "coerced by him", then with Xiang Huai's face, my aunt would be more willing to trust him.

As for the possibility that Li Shengxi felt extremely disgusted when he saw that face, Li Heng never thought about it.
