Queen, don't be too arrogant

Chapter 118 The Origin of Xiaoqi (6)
He was stunned for a moment, then looked up at Xie Jingran, his face was still a little red, and he stuttered a little: "You...what did you say?"

"Haha, you are so embarrassed, it's really beyond my expectation!" Xie Jingran couldn't help laughing, "Seeing you like this, I really doubt that what happened at that time was not your own. You wanted to do that, but someone ordered you to do it!"

"No!" He hurriedly said two words. Just after saying these two words, he seemed to realize that he was too excited, and he regained his usual calmness, and said the following words, "Actually, everything is I mean, because I grew up with the emperor since I was a child, so I have always regarded his affairs as my affairs. Originally, I made you a queen to the emperor, because of your previous reputation, so I treat you I'm very disdainful, I just wanted to insult you to vent his anger, but I don't want to..."

When he said this, he suddenly seemed to think of something, and quickly explained to Xie Jingran: "Please don't misunderstand, although I did think that way at that time, but now..."

"Don't say it anymore, I know it all, and I don't blame you now."

Xie Jingran knew what he was going to say next, so she quickly stopped what he was about to say.For the previous things, just let it go, and bring it up again, it just makes her feel even more unbearable, it's better to forget it all.

After hearing Xie Jingran's words, he seemed to feel even more guilty, and said in a hurry: "I'm really sorry about what happened before, and please forgive me, okay?"

Khan, why has he been obsessed with such a problem? She has said many times that she doesn't blame him anymore, and he is still rambling on here.

So Xie Jingran waved her hand: "Okay, I've already said that I don't blame you, so don't continue to bring up this topic. By the way, it's already so late now, you can go to my house first ,How about it?"

Hearing Xie Jingran's words, his face turned slightly red again, and he said dully: "Thank you, Empress Empress, but I still have something to do, so I'm leaving first."

"Oh well."

Seeing what he said, Xie Jingran didn't force it anymore.Seeing him turn around to leave, he suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly shouted at him: "Wait, I have something to ask you!"

He stopped in his tracks and turned his head to look at Xie Jingran: "I don't know if the empress has any questions for me?"

"Actually, it's not a big question, but I want to ask you..." Xie Jingran suddenly felt that this question was a bit difficult to ask, but seeing Shangguan Mingyu's expression waiting for her to ask, she had no choice but to ask the question, " I want to ask you, did Murong Xuanyan really ask you to protect me?"

Hearing Xie Jingran's question, there seemed to be a strange gleam in his eyes, and then he nodded and said: "Yes, it is indeed the emperor who asked me to secretly protect the empress outside the palace."

"But..." Xie Jingran suddenly thought of a question that was almost ignored by her, "If that's the case, why didn't he ask me to go back to the palace? Didn't he ask you to protect me, then he must already know my whereabouts. !"

When he heard Xie Jingran's question, he was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Actually, the emperor just now knew that the empress is here. As for the fact that the humble minister was able to protect the empress in the past, it was only because the emperor had told the humble minister well. With the Empress Empress, we must protect the safety of the empress at all costs."

"Okay, I get it now."

Xie Jingran nodded, she didn't expect Murong Xuanyan to actually do such a thing, but when she thought of him caring about her safety, she felt very unbelievable, a person like him would really care about her her?
Forget it, forget it, don't think about it anymore, maybe people suddenly realized their conscience, that's why they did this, right?But thinking about it like this, she felt really awkward in her heart, and didn't know how she would treat him if she really faced him.

Seeing Xie Jingran's appearance, Shangguan Mingyu couldn't help smiling, and said to her: "Since the Empress has nothing else to do, I'll take my leave first!"

"Oh, yes." Xie Jingran said to him casually, and suddenly felt that he was really too polite to her, and kept calling her "Empress Empress", which was a bit unfamiliar to her, which made her feel really very uncomfortable.

So she quickly said to him: "By the way, don't keep calling me Empress Empress, after all, you don't have to be so polite to me now that you are not in the palace. Why don't you call me Jingran just like Nangong Jinghong and the others?" Bar."

"Quiet?"

He froze for a moment, another inexplicable light flashed in his eyes, but it was fleeting.Seeing Xie Jingran's smiling eyes, he didn't dare to look any further, but lowered his head, laughed lowly, and said as if mocking himself: "But this humble minister is not Mr. Nangong..."

His voice was so low that Xie Jingran could barely hear what he was saying, and could only watch him talking to himself.

Finally, after his murmurs disappeared, Xie Jingran finally saw him looking up at her with a slight smile on his lips: "Then I'd better call you Miss Xie."

"Miss Xie? Well, it's not bad, then you can call me that outside the palace from now on, and even in the palace, you can call me that when no one else is present."

Xie Jingran smiled at him, not knowing why he would face her with such an alienated smile after talking to himself.But maybe he did this because of the so-called difference between monarch and minister, and she didn't have to force him so much.

After listening to Xie Jingran's words, he nodded and said goodbye to her.She watched his back go away, feeling mixed feelings in her heart for a moment, thinking of the help he had been doing to her all this time, and thinking of him saying that he did all these things at the behest of Murong Xuanyan, some inexplicable emotions were tangled in her heart unclear.

But for some reason, even if he said that, she couldn't see that he was carrying out the order.But if she was asked to believe that he had come to help her out of intention, she felt a little inconceivable.

Forget it, you don't have to think about anything.The most important thing now is to deal with what happens next.

Xie Jingran shook her head, quickly suppressed her uneasiness, turned around and ran towards the Xiangguo Mansion.

Although the man in black said that he was defeated by Shangguan Mingyu, no one can guarantee that he will not turn around and deal with her again, so it is the safest choice for her to go home now.

Xie Jingran ran home in a hurry, and when she ran to the door, she didn't forget to glance behind her, really afraid that the man in black would continue to chase her.
