Lord, your mask fell off

Chapter 1153

"Xiao Hou, you have to calm down!"

Pang Zhijing turned her wrist and struggled, but the person in front of her looked weak and weak like a little white flower on the surface, but in fact, she couldn't move at all when she exerted all her strength, so she had to persuade her.

Xiao Hou raised his eyebrows and smiled, but his voice was a little cold, "Do you think this king treats you too leniently, so you dare to play tricks under my nose?"

"No, no, I didn't mean that!" She immediately denied it, joking, if she admits this, her good life will be over, but she doesn't seem to have any good life either.

Seeing her innocent and well-behaved appearance, he remembered that she caught him off guard in the hall today, and he couldn't help but increase his strength, "Then tell me, why did you violate our plan?"

Going around, she still went back to this question. She thought that if she didn't face it today, she would be torn to pieces by him sooner or later.

"I think this plan is very unreasonable. Xiao Xu and Chu Qingyan are very affectionate. If I interfere, think about what happened to the Nancang Army before, I'm afraid I will die a miserable death!" She quickly explained.

"You are a princess of a country, no one will trouble you even if your request is unreasonable, and is it just a show for you to be my king?" After Xiao Hou finished speaking, he realized that she was just making excuses, he condensed his eyes, "My king must listen to the truth!"

Really old fox!
She secretly complained in her heart, but she didn't dare to play tricks anymore, "I think he's living a good life, and I don't like being a third party, and I don't want to cooperate with your plan at all, it feels like I'm helping the bad guys, please do me a favor , I’m just an insignificant outsider, just let me go! I promise I won’t cause any trouble for you!”

These words made Xiao Hou's whole heart explode. He didn't expect that the carefully arranged chess pieces would give him such a big sap at this time, "Now that the situation has been formed, and your marriage has been settled, what do you think? Are you still an insignificant person? Once you enter the game, unless you die, it will be difficult to fly with wings!"

These words were so severe that she ignored the pain in her wrist, but for some reason, the marriage agreement made her heart tremble slightly, and there was an inexplicable strange joy in her heart, which made her at a loss!
After all these things, Xiao Hou didn't dare to be careless to her, his eyes were fixed on her face, and seeing her expression flickering, he couldn't help squinting his eyes slightly, and got closer to her, "Pang Zhijing, your purpose is to marry this king? "

There was no way behind her, and when he pushed her back, she bumped into a potted plant, and the thin and dense branches pierced into the thin summer shirt, which was a little painful, but she didn't dare to move, because what he said would just Like Xia Lei, it exploded in her ears, brain, and heart.

"I, I—" She opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say.

She has always struggled with which prince to choose. Although the choice is not in her hands, she puts her last effort on the palace banquet. Xiao Xu is excluded first. Xiao Yao is said to be too lustful , obsessed with women all day long, and Xiao Ran is in the center of the power vortex, she can't afford to offend, so she can only choose a confident person she knows well, that can only be Xiao Hou, but she ignores that this person is actually only wearing sheep's clothing The wolf, such as now, his reddish eyes are full of anger.

Xiao Hou didn't give her a chance to continue, he seemed to put away all the sharpness all of a sudden, turned into a gentle lover, clasped her wrist with one hand, and supported her chin with the other, leaned closer, his eyebrows turned into Affectionately, "Do you have a crush on me?"

what?
Her eyes widened for a moment, she didn't know whether she couldn't believe his question, or the answer in her heart, she froze there like a stone.

"You let go, I hurt!"

Xiao Hou exerted a little force on his fingers, her jaw hurt, and she couldn't say a word she wanted to say.

He is like a rose, mysterious and charming, but alluring and thorny, "I am still thinking about why you appeared in the palace last night. The sweat medicine is just your excuse! Your real goal should be this king!"

She blushed. Why is this man so shameless? Is it funny to taunt her?No, he is taking revenge on her!But his aura lingered around her body, making her unable to advance or retreat, and her whole body was stuck there like a log.

Seeing her embarrassing expression, Xiao Hou didn't stop there, he seemed to believe that she thought so, the charm on her body faded, and the warmth put on again, he loosened her chin, but the restraint of her wrist was still there.

"Princess, although this king is not aware of your way this time, don't think that this king will spend any thought on you. In my eyes, you are no different from wild flowers beside the road."

He was like a god emperor aloof, with pity in his eyes, but he didn't bother to sprinkle a trace of kindness.

Pang Zhijing looked at him blankly, forgetting the pain in her wrist, because these words seemed to make her heart ache even more.

Xiao Hou shook off her hand, she couldn't control her body and fell back, just in time to be caught by the right maid.

Xiao Hou ordered, "Take care of the princess, and don't let her leave the hall until the palace banquet is over."

The maids didn't know how the aunt had offended the master, so they immediately bowed their heads in response.

Pang Zhijing lowered her head, watching the hem of his clothes floating far into sight, her eyes numbly falling on the bruises around her wrist, suddenly the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, a self-deprecating smile appeared.

Just now, when he asked herself if she liked him, she didn't deny it in her heart.

It turned out that in these days, she had developed a different feeling for him.

It's just that she felt that she was very sad. As soon as she was sure that she fell in love with someone, she was sentenced to be broken in love.

Is there anyone more miserable than her in this world?
"Princess, it's time for us to go back to the palace." The maid didn't know what she was thinking, and followed Xiao Hou's explanation just now.

Pang Zhijing raised her head, her expression was a little sad, she was too busy to take care of herself now, and she couldn't inform Qingyan, but with Xiao Xu by her side, even if there was danger, she should be able to resolve it!
She wanted to raise her hand, but found that her wrist was unable to exert force. She muttered dissatisfied in her heart, what a heavy hand!

After Pang Zhijing and his party walked away, there was a small commotion on Chu Qingyan's side.

Chu Qingyan and Xiao Xu were about to head back home after shopping around the lanterns, when a little palace maid appeared in front of them.

"Miss Chu, Miss Tang and Miss Jin are waiting for you. They said they saw some beautiful lanterns and wanted you to take a look."

The other party pointed out the name of the person and said the reason, Chu Qingyan didn't think too much, and said to the people around her, "Wait here for me, I'll go back as soon as I go!"

Xiao Xu glanced at the women over there, and it was inconvenient for him to show up, so he nodded and told her to pay attention to safety, and stepped back to wait for her.

She smiled at him, took Xining and followed the little palace maid.
