Chapter 21 Assassination
Xuanyuan Che's loathing and alienated gaze hit her face undisguisedly, but behind the unfathomable light in his eyes, there was a complexity that he himself did not understand.

Yun Xiran's heart trembled when he met that compelling and intense gaze.

Stirred by the cold words, she laughed back from anger.He groped for the big hand lying across his waist with his backhand, pinched the flesh on the back of his hand with two fingers, and twisted it hard.

Xuanyuan Che let out a muffled snort, but his face was still indifferent and expressionless, but his big palm was tightened again, not inferior to Yun Xiran's strength at all.

Yun Xiran almost jumped up in pain, she gritted her teeth, two angry and provocative flames danced in her eyes, and twisted the tender flesh on the back of his hand fiercely in the opposite direction.

Feeling the resistance of the person in his arms, Xuanyuan Che pursed his thin lips slightly, and narrowed his sharp eyes.

And Yun Xiran in his arms felt that the bones in his waist were about to be crushed by him!

"Don't admit it yet?"

The two stalemate for a while, and Xuanyuan Che suddenly smiled unexpectedly.

The bright smile is like the epiphyllum blooming in the night sky, and the beauty is beautiful, but it was only amazing for a moment, but the smile disappeared suddenly, as if it had never appeared.

The intensity of the haunting around her waist suddenly eased, before Yun Xiran had time to exhale the cold air, she suddenly felt the world spinning before her eyes, her back felt cold and touched the cold side wall of the carriage.

It was cold behind him, but his wrists felt hot.When she recovered, Xuanyuan Che had raised her hands high, and pressed her on the carriage in an extremely ambiguous posture.

His deep starry eyes, which seemed to see through everything, were bright and cold inside, where magnificence and indifference coexisted, as if as long as he was stared at by those eyes, half of his soul would be lost.

Yun Xiran criticized aloud from the bottom of her heart: Although she has a handsome face that is disastrous to the country and the people, she prefers to keep a straight face. It really is a waste.The distance between the two became shorter and shorter, but Yun Xiran didn't even have the shyness that an ordinary woman should have on her face.She lowered her eyes and smiled, straightened her waist and approached Xuanyuan Che's handsome face, and seemingly unintentionally blew a cold breath on his face.

Xuanyuan Che's big palm controlling her wrist froze unconsciously.

"Admit what?" Yun Xiran smiled ambiguously, but there was a cold light in his eyes that seemed to be a smile but not a smile. "The troubles that haunt you are awakened by a stick, and they no longer haunt you like a follower, isn't it just what you want?"

Xuanyuan Che sneered when he heard the words, and leaned over slightly, looking down at her condescendingly. "If you are really Yun Xiran, this king will be really happy."

Yun Xiran's hair tightened in her heart, but she still insisted on sarcasm: "Prince Yu is blinded by the moonlight again? He doesn't even recognize his fiancée."

Xuanyuan Che narrowed his eyes when he heard these words, and his dangerous eyes circled around her neck like a knife blade.The big palms closed her wrists, freed one, and began to slowly caress the blood vessels in her neck.

His hands were slightly cold, and the calluses on his fingertips touched her neck, as if if she continued to speak, he would mercilessly strangle her to death.

Sensing his intention, Yun Xiran shrank back unconsciously, but there was no trace of fear in her bright eyes.

"You...don't mess around!"

Xuanyuan Che seemed dissatisfied with her performance, clicked his tongue, and looked at her more deeply and unfathomably.

Suddenly the hand moved from the collarbone to strangle her neck, Yun Xiran's heart skipped a beat, feeling the tightening strength gradually deepening.

She cursed in her heart, changed her mind, and was about to rise up to resist, when the coachman's exclamation suddenly sounded in her ears, followed by the sound of a cold arrow piercing through the gauze.

"My lord, there are a lot of assassins outside—" Xia Ping reported the situation to the people in the carriage while fighting.

"Don't come out." Xuanyuan Che let go of her, picked up his saber and quickly got out of the carriage.

Yun Xiran stuck out her tongue frantically towards his back, and made dozens of grimaces before giving up.

She's not really a fool, there are assassins outside, isn't she looking for death if she goes out now?

It's just that the battle outside seems to be very intense, and the sound of weapons colliding and people's screams comes in through the thin screen window from time to time.

Yun Xiran lifted a corner of the car curtain, seeing it, her pupils couldn't help constricting for a while.

It was just now that Xuanyuan Che was entangled, Yun Xiran didn't notice at all, it turned out that he was wearing a Floating Cloud brocade robe of the same color as her clothes today.

The man under the moonlight has cold eyes, a tall figure, and a figure holding a sword freely and freely.As soon as he raised his eyes and turned sideways, the killing intent was fierce, and his elegance was fully displayed.

Dozens of assassins around him flooded in like a tide, but Xuanyuan Che didn't show any panic at all. He swung his sword while remaining calm, and Yun Xiran felt flashes of white light flashing across his face. All the assassins were left with a pile of corpses and blood.

Putting down the curtain resentfully, she stopped looking out.

"My lord." Xia Feng found a wooden sign from the pile of corpses, and respectfully handed it to Xuanyuan Che.

He lowered his eyes and glanced, the coldness suddenly exploded in his eyes, even Yun Xiran, who was watching from a distance in the carriage, couldn't help shaking.

"I knew it was him." Xuanyuan Che sneered, and with a wave of his hand, the wooden sign instantly turned into sawdust and scattered in the night wind.

Xuanyuan Yu, you are really brave enough, even at the foot of the imperial city, you dare to attack him so blatantly.

"Put away these corpses, don't leave even a crumb of meat, and put them in the king's bedroom!" The cold words were mixed with traces of hidden evil spirit, and even Xia Feng couldn't help but listen to them. A thrill.

"Yes."

After finishing his work, Xuanyuan Che opened the curtain and got into the carriage.The cool eyes only glanced at Yun Xiran lightly, then sat on the opposite side of her, closed his eyes and took a nap.

After a long time without hearing anything else, Yun Xiran finally felt relieved.

She stretched out her hand to touch her neck, and murmured, "What a bastard..."

"Say it again?" The person who thought he was asleep had clear eyes at this moment, his cold eyes were half-closed, how did he look like he had just woken up?
"...I didn't say anything." Yun Xiran snorted and turned her head away from him.

Who knows if this lunatic will come on the bunk and pinch her again later?

The carriage slowly stopped at the gate of the palace, and Xuanyuan Che gave her a meaningful look before getting out of the carriage.Although her lips were raised slightly, there was no smile in those half-closed eyes, and Yun Xiran only felt a frightening aura coming over her face.

She rolled her eyes, got out of the carriage first, passed Xuanyuan Che's gaze, turned around and blessed him in the carriage, her red lips slightly parted: "My daughter won't talk nonsense, thank you King Yu for taking good care of me along the way. "

When talking about the four words of taking good care of her, she slightly accentuated the final sound, with a hint of gnashing of teeth.

Xuanyuan Che only slightly raised his eyebrows, gave a grace without changing his face, and said nothing further.

The palace maid who led the way led Yun Xiran to the female family's seat, and quietly looked at her expression as she walked.

Yun Xiran was already pretty, but because she had been mentally disturbed and did stupid things that made people laugh, not many people cared about her appearance.

At this time, Yun Xiran's makeup is light and elegant, her smile is decent, her gestures are full of ladylike temperament, and the most exciting thing is the layered skirts, as if stepping forward, countless delicate lotus flowers bloom under her feet.

The female officer thought to herself, and in a blink of an eye, she had already arrived at the gate of the banquet, and she respectfully blessed her body. "You please."

After finding his own seat and sitting down, Yun Xiran took a rough look around and found that most of the people present were the children of powerful families in Beijing.There are only a very small number of students who have come out of famous universities in central Beijing.

"Ouch, who is this?" The yin and yang teasing laughter suddenly sounded. "Isn't this the idiot from Prince Yun's Mansion?"

"How can a fool come to the Hundred Flowers Feast!"

"Hey...it's really boring. It's a good banquet, why invite a fool."

Someone at the bottom laughed. "It can't be sneaked in!"

Yun Xiran's movement of holding the cup to drink water didn't stop, she was still flowing and graceful.The slender white fingers covered the white porcelain cup, which was three points smoother and more delicate than it looked.

After she was full, she took a bored look at the group of people who were talking, "Look at your sloppy footsteps and blue eyes..." As she spoke, Jinpa covered her red lips and sneered. "Could it be that you don't lift it?"

"You—" The man choked on the central matter, and his face turned green and pale.

Where is there a girl like her?Why don't you use such indecent vocabulary!
Everyone present sighed, and looked at her with contempt.

As expected of a fool, he really speaks out loud!
Everyone was thinking like this, and they all forgot, how can there be such an eloquent tongue as a fool?
"The Emperor is here—"

During the dispute, the eunuch's loud announcement came into the hall.

The middle-aged man in a bright yellow robe had a majestic face, and the emperor's scrutinizing eyes circled over everyone's heads, especially when he passed by the few children of the family who had spoken rudely just now, they stayed for a few quarters of an hour.

Those few people were sweating profusely, and cold sweat was dripping upwards.

The emperor sat on the dragon chair directly in front of him, and he didn't say until he took a sip of the warm wine brought by the attendant and felt comfortable in his stomach, "Get flat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Everyone stood up, found their seats in an orderly manner and sat down.

The seat in Prince Yun's mansion was closer to the front, and not long after he sat down, the emperor's eyes passed over those ladies in the official mansion, and directly locked on Yun Xiran who was smiling faintly.

"Xi'er, come here." The emperor beckoned to her lovingly, and there was an exclamation of surprise and envy all of a sudden.

Even though those jealous eyes were trying to pierce her through, Yun Xiran still didn't feel much. On the contrary, when she faced the emperor's peaceful and gentle expression, she couldn't help raising her eyebrows lightly and trembling all over.

It's not that I'm afraid, it's that I'm panicked.

In Yun Xiran's memory, the emperor had never been so close to her.She couldn't help guessing the reason for the emperor's drastic change in her heart.

But when others see it, they will only think that this is the supreme honor bestowed by the Lord Long Live. After all, how many women from official families are lucky enough to be called by the emperor to answer?
"Your servant pays homage to my emperor, long live my emperor." Yun Xiran raised her lips and smiled, no matter what, it's right to salute first.

"Get up." The emperor himself reached out and pulled her up from the bottom, looking at her with relief in his eyes. "Well, the illness is really cured."

Compared with the woman with a silly smile who was circling behind Xuanyuan Che before, Yun Xiran in front of her seemed to be born again.
