MTL - Marrying The Villain-Chapter 23 help?

A stone "slapped" on the trunk.

The canary standing on the branch in a daze was frightened, chirped, and flew away.

The black snake jumped into the air, spit out the letter and retracted into the flowers, hiding its tracks.

Ning Yin's "good show" was over, so she turned her head to look at Yu Lingxi, with no emotion in her black ice-like eyes.

The girl under the flower tree had picturesque eyes, patted the dust on her hands and said: "I don't like snakes. If you are warmed by someone, you have to bite them back. They are cold-blooded and ungrateful."

Ning Yin smiled softly.

"But miss, snakes are meant to bite people."

But there was no smile in his eyes, and there was a faint mockery, "It was born with cold blood, lives in the dark, and can't adapt to the temperature of people, how can we blame it for biting back?"

Heretic and fallacious, just like the previous life, it is impossible to refute.

"I need to find a guard and drive it away." Yu Lingxi still panicked when she thought of such a cold thing.

"You should kill it." Ning Yin said suddenly, looking at the black snake coiled on the tree.

Yu Lingxi looked at Ning Yin's profile, not sure what he meant.

In her previous life, when she couldn't figure out Ning Yin's thoughts, she would give in at the right time. So, she raised her bruised and scabbed left hand with downcast eyes, spread her palm towards him, and sighed softly, seemingly unintentionally: "My hand still hurts."

As expected, Ning Yin raised the tails of her eyes slightly.

She whipped herself hard, and in the end she had to be pitiful in front of him.

"Miss, why are you protecting me?" His thin lips parted, and he didn't continue the topic of snakes.

Yu Lingxi glanced at him: "What do you think?"

Ning Yin shook her head: "Miss is too smart, I can't guess."

Being praised as "smart" by a really smart person, Yu Lingxi really didn't know whether to be proud or ashamed.

"It's better to make you owe me some love than to make you hate me more."

Yu Lingxi said bluntly, "Besides, I am also responsible for this matter."

Ning Yin stopped talking.

A magnolia flower fell from a branch and landed at Yu Lingxi's feet, making a soft sound.

She squatted down and picked up the magnolia with intact petals, and then she heard Ning Yin's indifferent voice from beside her: "Is the young lady satisfied with my performance?"

"What performance?" Yu Lingxi was still holding the flower, her pomegranate skirt winding down to the ground.

"I didn't cut off Qing Xiao's right arm."

The corners of Ning Yin's mouth curled up, and his tone was cold, "Miss, do you think Qing Xiao's arms are better than mine?"

He was talking about the day when he visited Xue Cen, Yu Lingxi ignored him and chose to get into the carriage with Qing Xiao's arm.

It's been three days!

He didn't think about it and calm down at all, he was just thinking about this matter in a dark way!

Yu Lingxi's brain was hurting, she lost all temper, got up and sighed: "Wei Qi, don't you have any compassion and love for this world?"

"Love?" Ning Yin laughed suddenly.

It was the first time that Yu Lingxi had seen him show such a willful and cold smile in such a long time since they met again.

"I was born fighting in the Colosseum."

Although he was smiling, his eyes were like frozen pools, and he looked at Yu Lingxi calmly, "No one taught me this kind of thing."

Yu Lingxi held the magnolia flower, her mood fluctuated, and then returned to calm.

She was finally convinced that it was impossible to turn Ning Yin's heart around just relying on small material favors.

He lives in cruel darkness and lacks the affection of normal people. The premise of teaching him etiquette, righteousness, integrity and shame is to make him a normal person with knowledge, knowledge and love.

They stood silently for a long time until the petals covered the ground.

After Yu Lingxi left, Ning Yin stood in the distance, holding a fragrant white magnolia in her hand.

The beast, who was too lazy to pretend, simply showed its fangs, and didn't bother to hide the hostility in his words.

He thought Yu Lingxi would be angry, but the girl pondered for a long time, then just handed over the magnolia flower in her hand, and told him: "Wei Qi, we are not enemies. Yu Mansion will not be a Colosseum either."

Ning Yin looked down at the delicate words in her palm, and for a moment, slowly clenched her slender fingers.

With a light snort, I don't know whether to call her stupid or smart.

If you say she is stupid, she is also bold and transparent, and she can properly dissipate his violent anger every time;

If she is smart...

There was a slight "hissing" sound from the flowering branches above her head, Ning Yin's eyes turned cold, and she raised her hand to accurately pinch the poisonous snake that was trying to sneak up.

With force between the fingers, pinch at the seven-inch point, the body of the black snake convulsed violently, and then hung down limply, without a sound.

Ning Yin tied the dead snake in a knot and threw it on the ground, looking at his fishy fingers with disgust.

If you say she is smart, but she doesn't know that you have to cut the weeds and root out the roots in order to avoid future troubles.

…

East Palace.

"What did you say?"

Prince Ning Tan stood up, "My mother disagrees with Yu Lingxi being the princess, why?"

Cui Anli, the **** in ocher clothes and a jade belt, waited on the side, and said slowly: "I heard that the second girl Yu has a marriage contract with Erlang Xuefu. Your Highness is the future heir, and the world flaunts it. Naturally, you can't do things like robbing ministers' wives. Besides, Xue Youxiang Your Highness understands how important it is to help you secretly."

Mentioning this matter, Ning Tan became depressed for a while.

"waste!"

Ning Tan swept away the paper and ink on the table with a wave of his sleeve, and pointed at the two hidden guards kneeling on the ground, "They are all trash!"

If Xue Cen died, there would naturally be no such obstacles. However, his subordinates did not do their job effectively, Xue Cen did not die, and even alerted the Xue family.

Early this morning, Xue Youxiang came to the East Palace on crutches, obviously asking the crown prince to make a thorough investigation into Xue Cen's falling into the water, but who knows if he secretly gave some warning?

The **** Cui An did not raise his eyes, and said in a slow tone as usual: "His Highness Xue Erlang must not move again. Even without Xue Erlang, His Highness would not be able to marry Miss Yu Erlang."

"How to say?"

"Recently there have been rumors in the middle of Beijing that the second girl Yu was in danger during the spring hunt, and spent a day and a night alone with a slave, losing her chastity. With this stain, it is impossible to become a crown princess."

Cui secretly said, "Your Majesty has said that she will choose Miss Yu as another concubine for His Royal Highness. The important gift His Highness sent to the Yu Mansion earlier should be considered as a reward for Miss Yu, so don't take it seriously."

Ning Tan's thoughts were not on Yu Xinyi at all, he just asked: "You said, Yu Lingxi has lost her virginity?"

Cui secretly said: "It's so rumored, it's not groundless."

"What kind of bewitching beauty is it that makes Xue Erlang, who is so handsome and beautiful, endure such shame and humiliation, and insist on marrying her?"

Ning Tan sat back in a daze, stroking the jade finger, feeling more curious and thirsty in his heart.

Thinking of something, he licked his dry lips, "Since I've already lost my virginity, it doesn't matter if I lose it one more time, right?"

Cui An raised his eyes and knew that the crown prince would never give up until he slept with the woman.

Ning Tan was extremely lustful, if he let it go, he might do even more outrageous and mindless things, and by then, the empress would have to wipe his ass.

"If your Highness just wants to taste it once, it's not impossible."

Cui An suppressed the sneer in his eyes, and said leisurely, "The day after tomorrow is Princess Deyang's birthday party."

Ning Tan was taken aback for a moment, then laughed, patted Cui An on the shoulder and said, "You're smart, go down and make arrangements!"

"Yes." Cui An bowed and stepped back.

Walking out of the main hall of the Eastern Palace, the young **** Fang Lian smiled and stamped his feet, and raised his hand to wipe the shoulder that was patted by the prince.

Yu Mansion.

The Eldest Princess Deyang is Jinshang's compatriot sister. When Jinshang was still the prince, it was only thanks to this very capable Eldest Princess to take care of him that he is what he is today.

Therefore, the status of the Eldest Princess is extraordinary. For her birthday banquet, all the dignitaries in Beijing will send their female relatives to celebrate her birthday, and the Yu family is no exception.

Mrs. Yu originally planned to bring her eldest daughter Yu Xinyi to the banquet as usual, but yesterday the eldest princess's mansion sent a palace attendant to deliver a post and specially invited Yu Lingxi to attend.

Yu Lingxi thought about it. When she was young, she was recuperating from illness all the time, rarely went out to show her face, and she had no connection with Princess Deyang.

However, Princess Deyang lost her husband in her early years and had no children under her knees. She always regarded her nephew Ning Tan as her own child. Ning Tan was able to successfully enter the East Palace, thanks to the Eldest Princess.

After Ning Yin killed her brother and father in her previous life, the eldest princess tried to take revenge on Ning Yin with the eunuchs of the remnant party, but Ning Yin lit a human skin sky lantern and burned the palace into a purgatory on earth...

With the memories of past and present lives gathered together, Yu Lingxi guessed: The eldest princess invited her to the banquet by name this time, most likely because of the prince's wedding.

Could it be that she was curious and wanted to see what she looked like?

Yu Lingxi was still thinking about this question before leaving for the banquet.

Princess Deyang likes gentle and clean women, so she deliberately chose bright begonia-colored clothes, painted red makeup, and dressed up like jewels.

Walnut pouted from the sidelines.

Why does the miss have a preference every day, the last spring banquet was dressed up like a fairy, and this time she was dressed up like a concubine.

"Miss, it's time to go." The maid sent by Madam Yu asked for instructions outside the door.

"Come on." Yu Lingxi looked back and forth at the bronze mirror for a long time, still worried.

She couldn't take things lightly when it came to the royal family of the Eastern Palace.

Like the imperial palace, the princess mansion is strictly guarded by the forbidden army, and those who go to the banquet cannot bring swords or servants.

After thinking about it, she called Qing Xiao who was waiting in the corridor, and whispered: "When you go to the banquet today, you bring two more guards to wait outside the door. Outsiders can't enter the Princess's mansion. If I haven't left at three o'clock in the afternoon After coming out of the banquet, let Ajie go to the King of Nanyang Xiaojun, and she will know what to do."

Qing Xiao took the order: "This subordinate understands."

In the Princess Deyang's mansion, the carriages of the various mansions have stopped for a distance of ten feet, and the crowds are crowded.

Yu Lingxi followed her mother and got out of the car. On the opposite side, Zhao Yuming also got off with Mrs. Zhao.

When the two families met, a trace of embarrassment and uneasiness were evident on the faces of Zhao's mother and daughter.

Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Yu are half-sisters. From the time she was in the boudoir, she had to compete with her gentle and beautiful younger sister everywhere, for clothes and jewelry. He became an inconspicuous head of the military department.

The Zhao family was in a downturn, and Mrs. Zhao felt that her face was dull, and she cut off contact with the Yu family more and more.

This time they bumped into each other, they found that Zhao Yuming and Yu Lingxi were wearing the same begonia-colored dress. At first glance, the backs of the two are very similar, but when they look at the front, they are very different.

Although Zhao Yuming was beautiful, her appearance was a little homely and she couldn't afford such bright clothes. On the contrary, it was Yu Lingxi, who was beautiful, exquisite and radiant.

Madam Zhao greeted Madam Yu with a smirk.

As soon as the Yu family's mother and daughter left, she immediately lowered her face and scolded Zhao Yuming: "I told you not to wear this dress, you insist on it! Now it's all right, it's not as good-looking as others, what an old face They were all thrown away by you!"

Zhao Yuming's face was slightly pale, and he twisted his sleeves silently.

Zhao Xu came over with a limp, and said in front of Zhao Yuming: "Mother, Yuming has dressed up for this banquet for a long time. Besides, my son thinks Yuming is prettier than Miss Yu."

"You feel?"

Mrs. Zhao snorted coldly, and glanced at the lame man who fell from a horse and broke his leg, "What do you think is the use?"

Zhao Yuming followed Mrs. Zhao, and when she stepped up the steps, she stopped again and looked back at Zhao Xu.

Zhao Xuyin was hidden in the shadows, with dark hatred in his eyes, and nodded towards Zhao Yuming.

The Grand Princess Mansion is magnificent, with fragrant clothes and shadows in the garden, and staggered cups and cups.

Before Princess Deyang showed up, the female relatives gathered together in twos and threes to chat and chat.

The General's Mansion has a high position and power, and has always been the object of courtship and win over by various families. Madam Yu is surrounded by wives from all the mansions, and she can't get away for a while.

This kind of banquet requires interpersonal communication, so Yu Lingxi said to Mrs. Yu: "My mother, I will go to Qingping Township Lord."

Tang Buli didn't find it, but he saw Xue Cen.

He looked much better. He was dressed in white clothes, and he was keeping a polite distance, smiling and talking to Zhao Yuming.

Seeing Yu Lingxi out of the corner of his eye, Xue Cen's eyes brightened slightly, he declined to say goodbye to Zhao Yuming, and walked towards Yu Lingxi.

"Second sister." He called out clearly.

"Brother Cen." Yu Lingxi bowed her head in salute, and said with concern, "Are you feeling better?"

"It's okay, it's healed."

Xue Cen led her to sit down on the seat, brewed a pot of tea with his own hands, "This is the latest tea of ​​this year, second sister, try it?"

Yu Lingxi picked up a cup and sniffed it, it was very fragrant.

She asked, "Is it a tea that only came out this year?"

Xue Cen poured tea in an extremely elegant posture, nodded and said, "Not bad."

Yu Lingxi let out a "huh" and sniffed again. Why is the fragrance of tea so familiar?

at the same time.

Prince Ning Tan was standing on a tall building in ordinary clothes, looking at the female guests coming and going, impatiently shaking a paper fan and asking, "Where is Second Miss Yu?"

Clouds shrouded a large shadow, and the shadow gradually moved west along the direction of the Princess Palace.

The back street of the General's Mansion, a secluded corner with no one there.

With the sound of the wind as the wings broke through, a gray falcon spread its wings and landed on the boy's raised arm.

Taking off the secret letter from the bamboo tube tied on the bird's feet, and unfolding it, Ning Yin's eyes darkened.

Ning Tan quietly went to the Princess Deyang's mansion. Since she was not upright, there must be dirty activities.

Thinking of Yu Lingxi who was dressed up for the banquet today, his eyes became a little colder, quenching the frightening cold.

"Miss, I told you earlier."

He laughed, and his extremely low voice was a little playful, "If you don't cut the grass, there will be troubles."

Her benevolent little cleverness is nothing in the face of absolute power.

Do you want to save?

He leaned against the wall, thinking lightly.

Forget it anyway.

If he appeared there for no reason, she might dislike him for his scheming and plotting to kill him.

Anyway, what kind of Qingxiao and what kind of Nanyang County King did she prepare, she didn't need him at all, didn't she?

He sneered, turned and walked back, but his pace slowed down unconsciously, and finally stopped in place.

Clenching his five fingers violently, Gray Falcon flew in shock, and the secret letter turned into dust and fell from his fingers.

But…

The wild and unruly boy raised his head, squinting at the sun that was obscured by the clouds.

Thin lips parted and closed: "I'm in a bad mood, I should kill someone."
