Chapter 24

Seeing that Xiang Yingxue couldn't hide it, she was not afraid.

After all, it was in Chu Palace, his own territory.

As long as he finds a way to escape and later insists that he has never seen her, what can he do to himself?
She blinked her eyelashes, looked at King Chen with a pitiful look, and continued to make up lies.

"This servant respects His Highness King Chen in my heart, and His Highness knows it.

I heard that you were resting here, so I wanted to come and see what this number one hero in the world looks like.

Because of my humble status, I dare not look directly, so I can only hide at the door to take a peek or listen to your voice. "

She looked at him with tears in her eyes: "If I have offended His Highness, I will go back to the palace to confess my crime to my master, who will punish me severely."

King Chen was fascinated by the girl's pitiful appearance.

There is no spare brain to think about why a slave will be accompanied by two maids and a large number of secret guards when leaving the palace.

His movements were much gentler, and he slowly helped her up: "You just want to come see me, what's the crime?"

Seeing that things had turned around, Xiang Yingxue breathed a sigh of relief and continued to frown.

"Thank you, His Highness King Chen, for your magnanimity. I will return to the palace to resume my duties now."

After saying that, he bowed and left.

The girl Murong Chen dreamed about every night was finally close to him, how could he let her go so easily.

"There's no rush. I'll wait until I have a few words with you before I leave."

He glanced at Fei Shi, who immediately understood.

Pushing Tie Jia who didn't know what to do, he went out together and closed the door by the way.

Xiang Yingxue knew that the emperor brother would come over after bathing and changing clothes, so she could keep pretending.
But the emperor's brother didn't have so many twists and turns in his mind, and he was afraid it would be easy for him to reveal his secrets.

I originally wanted to use the excuse of giving fruits and leave after just one look. But now that I am trapped, I am not afraid, but I feel a little anxious.

It's just that the situation has just calmed down. If it starts to make trouble again and spreads it, it will not look good on face.

She had no choice but to be pulled to the couch by him obediently, letting his rough hands knead her soft little hands.I just hope that the few words he said are really only a few words.

Murong Chen looked at the graceful girl in front of him with satisfaction.

I thought that the court of Southern Chu was corrupt, capable people were suppressed, but incompetent people enjoyed high official positions and generous salaries.

If it weren't for Princess Yingxue's promotion of agricultural commerce across the country and mutual trade with many countries, and the people's lives becoming more and more prosperous, Chu State would have become an empty shell long ago.

In such a place where mediocrity abounds, there is a little maid who can speak well.

Not only is he knowledgeable and talented, he can talk eloquently about his family, country and the world, but he also has a keen eye to recognize heroes, which is really rare.

His mind reappeared as she said with great longing that day on the way to the theater, "Thousands of people have gone to me, but that's what a great hero does."

A look of joy appeared on King Chen's face: "How about I take you back to Yan Kingdom?"

Xiang Yingxue suppressed her inner eagerness and lowered her eyes.

He said softly: "This slave is just a palace maid. She has no control over this matter. If your highness is interested, you can ask for it from the empress in charge of the harem."

Murong Chen didn't know what the little girl in front of him was thinking. Hearing her shy words like this, he thought she was willing and felt very happy.

Sitting on the couch, staring at her face, he took her two small hands and squeezed them gently.

"Which palace are you from and what is your name?"

Xiang Yingxue took a breath of cold air, thinking that she would be able to get away by taking him to the queen mother, but she didn't expect that this barbarian was quite caring.

"The king is asking you something."

"Slaves... Slaves are..."

She thought for a while, and found out that Fangzhu, who was beside the emperor's wife, looked a third of the way like her, and her appearance was also a third of the same.

And if something happens, the emperor's brother and his wife will also speak to him.

"This slave serves in the Crown Prince's uterus and is named Fangzhu."
