Chapter 435 Royal Family

Chapter 435 Royal Family

The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.

Xue Mu watched Can Cha's expression change, Ye Guying huddled in the corner and stretched her head while holding her breath, Liu Wanxi watched Xue Mu's expression without blinking.

In fact, aside from Liu Wanxi's complicated identity, Xue Mu also doesn't like to act like a duck. Every time they meet, he borrows money without saying a word, which is very embarrassing. But with the tea cup in front of him, he had to make a choice immediately. Xue Mu also knew that it would be very hurtful to refuse directly.

At this moment, he really hoped that Ye Guying or someone else would come out and interrupt him, dragging the decision he was about to make first so that he could talk to Liu Wanxi about other topics before entering the atmosphere!

It's a pity that there are no such caring people at the moment. Ye Guying is enjoying watching a movie...

Seeing Xue Mu's silence, a trace of complicated emotions flashed across Liu Wanxi's eyes.

In fact, she didn't know whether she wanted Xue Mu to accept or reject.

No one really wants to treat themselves as a tool. Even if they want to steal a man, they shouldn’t get straight to the point in just two or three sentences when they meet...

Her complicated mood made her not push it, and she kept looking forward to what kind of reaction Xue Mu would have.

"Wanxi." Xue Mu suddenly spoke: "You must be very tired after thirteen years of loneliness in the palace."

Liu Wanxi's beautiful eyes flashed with melancholy, and she pursed her lips and said, "Fourteen years."

For fourteen years, the emperor only had a twisted sense of conquest and possessiveness, and had no pity for her. He was surrounded by twisted people, like that weird Eunuch Li... Xue Mu imagined his life for these ten years, and it was the same shudder.

"Entering the palace is really self-abuse. Why did you choose to enter the palace in the first place?"

Being distracted by Xue Mu, Liu Wanxi temporarily forgot to take care of the half cup of leftover tea, and sighed: "I was kidnapped into the palace by Ji Qingyuan herself..."

"ah?"

"The capital is very close to Lingzhou..."

"Um."

"At that time, I was expelled from the sect's secret place in Ye County. I had lost all my skills and was no longer like a mortal. I was filled with pain and regret. I was walking on the road in a daze. I didn't even know that the emperor was approaching me in disguise. I was almost killed by a guard. ." Liu Wanxi said calmly: "Ji Qingyuan saw that I looked pretty, so he kidnapped me into the car."

"Where is Eunuch Li?"

"Xiao Lin was also looking for me from behind. He happened to see me when I was kidnapped into the car. He had not yet completed his spiritual practice at that time, so he did not dare to act rashly. He followed me secretly all the way and planned to find an opportunity to save me." Speaking of this, Liu Wanxi Suddenly he laughed: "As a result, he heard Ji Qingyuan in the car say that for such a beautiful woman and a commoner girl who has no spiritual practice, why not come back to the palace with me and take care of my daily life. That guy suddenly didn't want to save people, and later looked for an opportunity to tell me that the world has been destroyed. There is no place for me, so it would be a good thing if the emperor takes care of me."

Xue Mu: "...Does he think this is a good thing for you, or is he having a green slave mentality?"

Liu Wanxi shook her head and said: "I don't know either. But what he said makes sense to me. If I can gain Ji Qingyuan's trust, maybe I can help the sect in the future?"

"That's true. But don't you need to take a physical examination before entering the palace? You..."

"Of course I'm a virgin, no matter how you test, how could I enter the palace otherwise?"

Xue Mu's mouth was half open and speechless.

Damn it, many of the previous judgments were wrong... Didn't it mean that she was deceived by a man and lost all her skills, which led to the sect incident? Then she gave birth to Yue Xiaochan and was scolded as a bastard, but Xue Qingqiu regarded Yue Xiaochan as a daughter because of sisterly love. Add to that the weird look Xia Wenxuan looked at Yue Xiaochan, and all the tight-knit reasoning collapsed at this moment.

She is still a virgin, so what did the man lie to?

I should have asked Xue Qingqiu if I had known, but it was a pity that when I returned to Lingzhou, I didn't want to ask about it after a long separation, and then I completely forgot about it when things happened... I was really confused this time.

Xue Mu had a headache, picked up the tea cup and took a sip.

Liu Wanxi blinked.

Ye Guying in the corner blinked.

This is the half-cup of leftover tea!

Xue Mu also suddenly remembered that the movement of drinking tea suddenly froze there. It took him a long time to put it down carefully, and said with a smile: "Haha... the tea is good..."

Liu Wanxi showed an interesting smile: "The manager...is really different from what Wanxi imagined."

"how?"

"No matter where I heard the information, the manager is very lustful." Liu Wanxi asked curiously: "Is Wanxi beautiful or not? What makes the manager so embarrassed."

This time, Xue Mu was relieved of the mother-daughter suspicion between her and Yue Xiaochan, and he felt several times more relaxed. He smiled casually and said, "I just feel that it's awkward to borrow seeds from time to time. You made it a tool, and I made it a breeding device." , it’s not a good experience anyway.”

Liu Wanxi sighed softly, stood up and walked to the window, quietly looked at the moonlight for a while, and whispered: "The manager also said that she has been lonely in the palace for thirteen years. Wanxi is not a person in the painting, she also has her own Feelings of joy, anger, sorrow, and joy, I also hope to have a man who is happy with me and treats me tenderly. But after all, it is just an extravagant wish. Even if the steward enters the palace, it is just for a moment to deal with important events. How can we start talking about relationships? Isn’t it wrong to expect this? You're looking for trouble. It's better to have a child by your side. The manager says it's a tool, but I think it's sustenance."

Xue Mu was startled for a moment, and secretly thought that from her point of view, this was correct.

Liu Wanxi turned around and smiled slightly: "Actually, when I first entered the palace, I thought about serving His Majesty well. Even though he was no longer humane, he still gave me a place to stay. But you know that he How do you recruit me to sleep with you?"

Xue Mu probed: "With your hands?"

"Ha..." Liu Wanxi laughed and shook her head: "Forget it with my hands. He beat me with a whip. He tied me to a pillar and whipped me until I was dying."

Xue Mu suddenly stood up.

"I can't be beaten to death because I have been soaked in various magical medicines since I was a child. I am the direct descendant of the witch baptized by the Star-Moon Divine Canon. Although my skills have been lost and my body has been tempered, my vitality is extremely strong in my bones. I can even get sick without dying. Everyone in the world is They say I am frail and often sick, but who knows that every time I get sick, it would be equivalent to death for an ordinary person?"

Xue Mu was silent.

"Are you saying that the other concubines in the harem don't compete with me for favor? No, they are afraid of being beaten. There are several concubines who have been beaten to death, and everyone avoids Ji Qingyuan like a tiger. Since Liu Wanxi can't be beaten to death, then let her Go and get beaten. So I slowly worked my way up from the lowest beauties to the noble concubines." Liu Wanxi laughed a little crazily: "They don't know that I myself abuse myself every day, so what if I am abused by others? It's just atonement. , the more painful the beating, the better, it can remind me that this is a sin!"

Xue Mu couldn't help but stood behind her and hugged her gently: "Stop talking. This kind of thing will never happen in the future. It's only you who beat him."

Liu Wanxi leaned quietly in his arms. The slightly crazy venting just now made her breathing a little faster. Xue Mu's chest was like the best harbor for her to rest and dock. The two stood in front of the window, silent and silent.

After a while, Liu Wanxi reluctantly spoke to break the silence.

"About Xia Houdi...does the manager like her very much?"

"Well……"

"If the general manager likes her, then no prince can be allowed to take the throne."

"Why?"

"The so-called scandal has faded away after so many years. If he really wanted to give Xiahou the title of princess, he could have done so a long time ago. Do you know why Ji Qingyuan has always refused to give her the title of princess?"

"Is there another story here?"

"There is no story. Although he has never said it, Wanxi has been with him day and night and has long seen his hidden meaning." Liu Wanxi smiled coldly: "As long as they are not brother and sister, no matter who he appoints as his heir in the future, he will Xia Houdi refers to her as the Crown Princess. It doesn't matter which brother she has a good relationship with before marriage. She can only protect her husband after all. Even if he builds a ball of mud, this ball of mud will not be afraid of being unstable. "

Xue Mu stood still, and Liu Wanxi could clearly feel that his arms around her waist were slowly becoming as hard as iron, and the extremely shocking anger was spreading, like a volcano about to erupt.
