Refusing to marry the king of broken sleeves

Chapter 163: A guest came to the door and walked straight to the hall in the front yard. As soon as Huangfu Yi stepped into the hall, he saw Ye Yuan who was already waiting there.

Ye Yuan also saw him, so he hurried up, cupped his hands and said, "My lord, the carriage is ready and ready to go."

Nodding his head, Huangfu Yi didn't pause any longer, turned around and walked straight towards the gate of the palace.Ye Yuan froze for a moment, looked at the tall and slender figure in front of him, sighed softly, and followed him.

"How is the matter that this king told you?" With his hands behind his back, Huangfu Yi walked straight out of the mansion while asking Ye Yuan who was following behind him, with a calm face and a voice. muffled.

Immediately understood what he meant, Ye Yuan lowered his head, looked a bit embarrassed, and replied in a low voice: "My lord, forgive me, my subordinates are incompetent, and there is still no result."

"If you found the jade pendant so easily, this king would be surprised." Huangfu Yi didn't pay much attention, raised his brows and said jokingly.

Even though Huangfu Yi didn't mean to blame him, Ye Yuan still blamed himself very much, secretly cursing himself for being incompetent, for failing to do well what the lord asked him to do.

"You don't have to follow me to the Prime Minister's Mansion." Walking out of the gate, Huangfu Yi ordered aloud, and looked back at Ye Yuan.

Ye Yuan was a little surprised, and subconsciously said: "Why?" After finishing speaking, he realized that he had said the wrong thing, and quickly changed his words, "The subordinate understands."

Huangfu Yi just looked at him with his deep eyes narrowed slightly, his steps stopped suddenly, his face looked a little dignified.

After a while, he sighed softly, and said in a low voice, "It's important to do business. It's been a little bit uneven recently."

"Not peaceful?" Ye Yuan raised his eyes to look at him, his eyes were full of doubts, "But what happened?"

After hearing his question, Huangfu Yi's face became more and more serious, and after sighing again, he said helplessly: "The Sky Kingdom has become restless again, and it has started to invade our frontier again. It's dissatisfying."

His words made Ye Yuan fall silent, and his slightly thin face also had a dignified expression, which looked very serious.

Sky Kingdom is a neighboring country of Cheyuan Kingdom, and the relationship between the two countries is not friendly. In recent years, Sky Kingdom has often sent troops to harass the frontier, and the war between the two countries has continued for several years.

This year was considered to be a relatively peaceful year, but he didn't want to. After more than half a year of peace, the Sky Kingdom began to be restless again. It sent troops to invade the frontier again, and it was bound to go to war again.

I don't know who will be sent to the battlefield this time.

Turning around and walking towards the steps outside the gate, Huangfu Yi squinted at him, and continued: "We must find the jade pendant as soon as possible, and we must not let others take advantage of the chaos."

Knowing what he meant, Ye Yuan also had a serious face, nodded, and replied in a deep voice: "My subordinates, remember, don't worry, my lord, I will definitely find the jade pendant."

Nodding his head, Huangfu Yi didn't speak any more, he walked to the carriage, and got on the carriage nimbly.

The wheels rolled, and the carriage staggered out, heading straight for the Prime Minister's Mansion.

***

In the prime minister's mansion.

Accompanied by Caizhi, Ling Ruoyao walked leisurely in the garden on the slippery ground.

The weather is rare today, and a heavy rain has relieved the sweltering heat of the past few days. She doesn't have to stay in the room all day, complaining about this world without air conditioners and electric fans.

With a calm face, she looked up at the bright blue sky above her head, and a faint smile appeared on her lips.

Although she is still not used to this country without air-conditioning and electric fans, and she has to wear such complicated clothes every day, she still survived this summer very strong.

The hot summer is coming to an end.

"What are you thinking, miss?" Seeing her pensive look, Cai Zhi frowned and asked in a low voice, with a bit of doubt in her tone.

When she came back to her senses, Ling Ruoyao turned her head to look at her, with a calm expression on her delicate and beautiful face.She shook her head and said casually: "It's nothing, I just feel that it's rare to have such a comfortable weather, so I should really go out for a walk earlier."

"Yes, today's weather is really nice!" Caizhi also nodded and echoed.

Without saying a word, Ling Ruoyao continued to walk forward slowly with elegant and leisurely steps, looking at the surrounding environment while walking.

Just as she turned a corner and went around a rockery, a servant who walked in a hurry came up to her.

Involuntarily frowning her slender brows, Ling Ruoyao stopped the servant and asked, "Why is it in such a hurry?"

Hearing this voice, the young man immediately stopped in his tracks, looked up at her, seemed relieved, and said, "So the second lady is here! The master asked you to go to the hall in the front yard. "

A puzzled expression immediately appeared on her fair and pretty face, Ling Ruoyao seemed very puzzled, thinking to herself, what would be the matter for Ling Yan to find her?In the past few days, she has been very obedient, staying in the mansion all the time, not leaving the mansion for half a step.

"Do you know why the master is looking for me?"

Shaking his head, the young man said in embarrassment: "I don't know, the master just ordered the servant to send a message to the second lady to go to the front hall."

Seeing that she couldn't find out why she came, Ling Ruoyao didn't ask any more, she nodded her head and said, "I see, you can go down."

"Yes, the slave will leave."

After the boy left, Ling Ruoyao looked away and walked towards the front hall, but there was still a deep doubt on her beautiful and refined face.

"Miss, what do you think will happen?" Caizhi hurriedly followed her pace, and asked in a low voice, also puzzled.

With a dignified face, Ling Ruoyao pursed her red lips, was silent for a while, then shook her head and said, "How would I know? Only when I go to see my father will I know what's going on."

As he said that, the pace under his feet accelerated involuntarily.

Not long after, the master and servant came to the front yard.Without going to the hall immediately, Ling Ruoyao stopped in the corridor outside the hall, took two deep breaths, and then stepped forward again, walking into the hall with her usual expression.

"Father, are you looking for me?" As soon as she stepped across the threshold, she asked with a smile on her face, and glanced at the entire hall.

However, when she saw the familiar slender figure sitting on the top seat in the hall, she froze for an instant, looking at that familiar handsome face in surprise.

Who can tell her why Huangfu Yi appeared in the prime minister's mansion?And he looked at her with a smug smile, as if he was provoking her!

Ling Yan asked her to come to the hall because Huangfu Yi came and called her?

Suddenly feeling unhappy in her heart, Ling Ruoyao cast her eyes on Ling Yan, with a bit of complaint in her eyes.

He knew that he hated Huangfu Yi very much, so why did he call her here?It's too late for her to hide from that guy Huangfu Yi, so why would she want to see him?

Sensing the complaining gaze she cast on him, Ling Yan's expression looked a little helpless, he looked away, and sighed softly, almost inaudibly.

Seeing him like this, Ling Ruoyao seemed to understand, presumably, it must be Huangfu Yi who put pressure on Ling Yan, forcing him to call her to come, right?

Thinking of this, she threw a vicious eye knife at him without hesitation, her eyes were extremely fierce and displeased.

It's a pity that her displeased and threatening eyes did not attract Huangfu Yi's attention. He automatically ignored her anger and dissatisfaction. Instead, he raised the corners of his mouth at her, with an elegant and charming smile on his lips .

Undoubtedly, his nonchalant attitude deeply irritated Ling Ruoyao, which only made her more displeased, and the gaze she looked at him became colder and colder.

"Second Miss is really late." Frowning handsomely, Huangfu Yi cleared his throat and said, his tone was somewhat teasing, but also seemed to be mixed with a trace of impatience.

With a cold snort from his nose, Ling Ruoyao cast a sidelong glance at him, and said angrily: "If the Fourth Prince gets impatient, you don't have to wait for me to show up."

Didn't care about her indifferent attitude, Huangfu Yi still looked calm and relaxed, looked at her lazily, and said in a relaxed tone: "Since I have come to the prime minister's mansion, how can I not see the second lady?" What about one side?"

There was a burst of irritability in her heart, Ling Ruoyao couldn't help but secretly cursed, he wanted to see her, but she didn't want to see him!If she had known that he was coming, she would definitely not have come to see him!

"The fourth prince has also seen me, so can I leave?" Ling Ruoyao glared at him fiercely, and said almost gnashing her teeth, with an impatient look on her face.

He raised his handsome eyebrows again, Huangfu Yi did not answer her, but turned his head to look at Ling Yan who was beside him, and said casually: "It turns out that this is how the prime minister educates his daughter."

Ling Yan's face changed suddenly, he looked a little embarrassed, he could only keep laughing, but didn't know how to answer.

His eyes shifted to Ling Ruoyao who was standing in front of the two of them, his eyes were full of reproach, but also a little bit of pleading, hoping that she could bear it for a while and stop angering Huangfu Yi.

As long as this Buddha is sent away, both father and daughter will be at peace.

He also didn't expect that Huangfu Yi would come to the Prime Minister's Mansion suddenly, calling it to visit him, but he knew very well in his heart that Huangfu Yi didn't come to visit him, but came to see Ling Ruoyao, right?

Sure enough, after Huangfu Yi sat down, just after exchanging a few words with him, the topic turned to Ling Ruoyao, intentionally or unintentionally saying that he wanted to see her.

Now that his Fourth Prince has spoken, can he refuse?Therefore, he knew that Ling Ruoyao would be very upset after seeing Huangfu Yi, but he had no choice but to order someone to send a message to let her come to the hall.

No, as soon as the two met, they began to confront each other, their swords were on the verge of breaking out, and the atmosphere suddenly became oppressive and embarrassing. .

Without blaming Ling Yan any more, Huangfu Yi picked up the teacup on the table, and gracefully fiddled with the lid of the teacup.Picking up the teacup and blowing on the tea leaves on the water, he took a sip and fiddled with the lid casually.

Looking at the teacup in his hand with lowered eyelids, he said in a very calm and casual tone: "It's rare for this king to come to the prime minister's mansion once. Should the prime minister let someone accompany me to visit your mansion?"

Ling Yan is not a fool, of course he could hear what he said, so he turned to look at Ling Ruoyao with questioning eyes.

Ling Ruoyao is not a fool, how could she not know his plan?He wouldn't come to the Prime Minister's Mansion for no reason. He came here suddenly this time and tricked her into coming here, isn't it just to see her?

From her point of view, the reason why she stood here was because she was cheated, by Huangfu Yi, a perverted man with broken sleeves!

Now, he said something like this again, didn't he just want her to show him around the prime minister's mansion?She is not so leisurely!

Seeing her frowning and displeasure all the time, Ling Yan knew that she was unwilling and did not want to force her, so he looked back at Huangfu Yi and said apologetically: "The humble house is nothing special, I'm afraid I won't be able to enter the prince's house." eyes."

"How could it be?" Huangfu Yi still had a laid-back look, and said nonchalantly, "This king hasn't seen it yet, so how does the prime minister know that he can't get into my eyes?"

When he said this, both Ling Yan and Ling Ruoyao could clearly feel that his tone was a little more serious than before, with a threat that could not be refuted.

Ling Yan seemed embarrassed again, not knowing what to do.

On the one hand is my daughter, on the other is the prince who cannot be offended, he is caught in the middle, it can be said to be in a dilemma!

Ling Ruoyao was so angry that her teeth itched, she always had a fierce look, staring at Huangfu Yi sharply, thinking, what kind of tricks is he going to play? !

If he came to the Prime Minister's Mansion just to see her, then well, she will accompany him to the end, as long as he doesn't make things difficult for Ling Yan, she will endure the displeasure in her heart and accompany him to the end!

"Since the fourth prince is all open, how can dad sweep away the interest of the fourth prince?" Ling Ruoyao put away the anger on his face and said softly, "If the fourth prince doesn't mind, why don't you let me go with you?" Walk?"

Although her voice was very clear and calm, she looked at Huangfu Yi with sharp and cold eyes, even with a hint of threat, warning him not to go too far.

The thin lips with beautiful lines raised an elegant and charming arc slightly upwards. Huangfu Yi raised his handsome brows, nodded and said: "With the second lady accompanying me, how can I refuse?" big.

And in his heart, he thought to himself, even if the woman is still on the way, he didn't have to make much effort, so he let her agree.He also thought that he would have to spend more time talking.

Ling Yan, who had been silent all this time, looked at Ling Ruoyao worriedly, with a serious and worried expression on his slightly aged face, his eyes remained on Ling Ruoyao all the time.

Sensing the concerned gaze projected from him, Ling Ruoyao also looked at him, with a calm and indifferent expression on her fair face, she even shook her head slightly to signal him not to worry.

Taking the expressions of the father and daughter into his eyes completely, Huangfu Yi didn't say anything, but put down the teacup in his hand, flicked his long gown, and stood up with his tall body.

He walked up to Ling Ruoyao, with his hands behind his back, and looked at her without saying a word, with a faint and sly smile on his sharp and resolute face, and a bit of playfulness in his deep and narrow phoenix eyes. .

"Let's go, Second Miss." Slightly bowing his head towards her, he whispered in her ear, his tone seemed a bit ambiguous.

The scorching breath sprayed on her neck, causing her to tremble uncontrollably, she subconsciously took a step back, and her delicate brows frowned involuntarily.

Saying goodbye to Ling Yan, Ling Ruoyao glared at Huangfu Yi, then turned around and walked towards the outside of the hall with hurried steps, her back straight.

Seeing the pretty figure leaving quickly in front of him, Huangfu Yi curled his lips with a look of indifference.Without stopping any longer, he stepped forward with his slender legs and followed Ling Ruoyao's footsteps in front of him.

And Caizhi, who had been standing by the side, not daring to make a sound, also consciously did not follow, but still couldn't help but cast a worried look at her.

Walking on the circuitous corridor, Ling Ruoyao still walked forward quickly. It seemed that only in this way could she suppress the anger that had already started a prairie fire in her heart.

With his hands behind his back, Huangfu Yi always looked leisurely and composed, following her steadily and rhythmically, with a smile on his face, looking at the angry Ling Ruoyao in front with great interest.

He suddenly felt that making her angry and watching her get angry seemed pretty good.But he is also very clear that if Ling Ruoyao finds out about this idea in his heart, she will only get angrier and hate him even more.

In order not to make her hate him even more, he quickly put away this subtle and strange feeling, and walked towards her at a faster pace.

When he came to her side, he stretched out his long arm and grabbed her arm, forcing her to stop.

Being pulled back by the trend, Ling Ruoyao was forced to turn around, but she still stubbornly turned her head to the side, without looking up at him, her pretty face also had a firm and alienated expression.

Seeing her indifference and displeasure, Huangfu Yi frowned involuntarily, the smile disappeared immediately on his resolute and bright face, and even cast a layer of gloom.

If he was still in a happy mood just now, enjoying the subtle feeling of seeing her angry, but at this moment, he felt a little irritable, very unhappy, and even complained and bitter.

She doesn't want to see him like this?Don't even want to look at him?

"Ruoyao, what exactly do you want me to do before you forgive me?" After a short silence, Huangfu Yi pursed his thin lips and said in a low voice, "I know that I hurt you back then, but I also really hurt you." After thinking about it, I also regret it very much, regretting that I treated you like that at the beginning. Can you give me another chance?"

I only felt a throbbing pain in my heart, and my eye sockets were a little sore. Ling Ruoyao sniffed, trying her best to keep herself calm and calm.

Slowly turning her head back, she met his sincere and earnest gaze, and a touch of poppy bloomed on her lips.She has a charming smile like a millet, but her tone of voice is very cold and alienated: "Is it useful to say this now? There is no medicine for regret in the world. Even if you regret it, what you did at the beginning has already happened and cannot be changed!"

"I know that no matter how much I say now, it will not be able to offset the resentment you have towards me in your heart." His tone became even more low, even a little humble, Huangfu Yi frowned tightly, stared at her, and continued, "But Ruoyao, you have to believe me, I really don't want to lose you again. Give me another chance to make up for the mistakes I made, okay?"

There was an indescribable complex feeling in her heart. She pursed her red lips tightly and looked at him resolutely. There was no trace of emotion on her beautiful and refined face.

She couldn't express what she felt in her heart at this moment, and she didn't know whether it was the disgust and hatred for him, or she was blaming herself.She just felt an inexplicable irritability and anxiety.

Yes, she felt uneasy, just because, for a moment, she was a little shaken, and under the bombardment of his firm, persistent, and even humble words, her heart began to shake.

This feeling made her dislike it very much, and it was even difficult to accept it.

In the midst of irritability, she kept cursing herself in her heart, how could she be so easily shaken?How can you be so spineless?Did she forget how he treated her back then?Can the harm done to her be erased with just a few words?

Only by scolding herself over and over again, can she stay awake and not continue to waver.

Taking a deep breath, she once again met his pleading gaze, with a coquettish and charming smile on her rosy lips, and said in a cold and warm voice: "Give you another chance to hurt me? You underestimate me too!"

Her words made him stunned for a moment, his brows frowned even tighter, and Huangfu Yi seemed a little flustered and nervous, and hurriedly explained: "Ruoyao, trust me! I won't do it again Hurt you, if I do something to hurt you again, let me be struck by lightning!"

"Enough!" Feeling more and more irritable, Ling Ruoyao couldn't help shouting, and looked at him coldly, "You should give up, I won't be your princess anymore, you and I have nothing to do with each other .”

"How can there be no relationship?" Huangfu Yi also suddenly became excited, stepped forward, and put his hands on her shoulders, "You are already mine, and I am your man, how can you say that we have nothing to do with each other?" Woolen cloth?"

His words made her more irritable, and those memories that she was trying to forget, like a flood, invaded her brain and heart, making her extremely uncomfortable and unhappy.

Pushing away his big hands holding her shoulders, Ling Ruoyao looked up at him coldly, snorted through her nose, and said coldly: "Don't say you are my man, it will only make me feel sick!"

Ignoring how ugly his face became, Ling Ruoyao forced herself to calm down, gave him a sideways glance, and continued: "I don't want to see you again, and you don't want to come to me either. Walk slowly!"

After finishing speaking, he stopped looking at him, turned around and strode towards his yard with a particularly determined back.

Seeing her gradually disappearing figure, Huangfu Yi clenched his hands, his expression was particularly lost and heartbroken...
