Prince, the princess calls you to dream

Chapter 23
Bai Jiuxiao glanced over the silver rope on his wrist.

"It's pretty good at shirking responsibility."

"I'm not trying to shirk responsibility. What I'm telling you is the truth. It's like the Ninth Prince asked us to wear veils, but in fact we don't want to, because we can't wear them when we sing. It's not good for the audience to see facial expressions or make a sound, but The Ninth Prince is a powerful prince, and we are just grassroots, so we have to follow the same path." Ning Shiqian replied neither humble nor overbearing.

"This king didn't let you wear it when you were on stage!"

"That's our misunderstanding, but the reason is still the same."

Bai Shixiang secretly gestured to Ning Shiqian with her eyes.

Please shut up, do you want to die faster?

Ning Shiqian ignored it.

Not only did he ignore it, he even sold her out again: "Princess Ten don't need to stop me, I believe that Prince Ninth is a sensible person."

Bai Shixiang wanted to kill someone.

Sure enough, her ninth brother was right. Does she know this man?do not understand.

All the advantages of this man are concentrated in his appearance, and there is no other advantage, because she is blind.

Bai Jiuxiao laughed, as if he had heard a big joke: "Do you know that you are the first person to say that this king is reasonable?"

"Is this king sensible?" She asked Xiang Bai Shixiang.

Bai Shixiang didn't answer.

If the answer is reasonable, it is obviously a lie against one's will. Her ninth brother asked her like this, which shows that he is very clear that he is not a reasonable person.

However, if she didn't answer directly, she would say that she was wrong with Brother Ninth in person, and she dared not.

No matter how you answer, you won't get any good results.

Bai Jiuxiao didn't take it seriously, and looked at Ning Shiqian again, and leaned back on the back of the chair: "This king never understands reason, because this king is the reason!"

Ning Shiqian was slightly startled, and also looked at her.

He obviously sat languidly, his tone was dull, and he didn't have the murderous arrogance when he just came in. It seemed that he just said casually, but he suddenly felt the arrogance, arrogance and awe-inspiring shock.

"Have you ever married a wife and had children?" Bai Jiuxiao asked.

"No."

Bai Jiuxiao drooped his eyes and brushed the dust off his robe sleeves boredly, and asked again: "Is there anyone you like?"

Ning Shiqian originally wanted to say no, but on second thought, if there is, it should be beneficial to the current situation, so he replied: "Yes."

Bai Jiuxiao slightly paused his dust-dusting hands, raised his eyelids, and looked at him.

"You still enter the bedroom of the tenth princess?"

"It's because of it that I am open-minded, so I won't have any affair with the tenth princess, and I won't have any behavior beyond the rules, because I will never do anything against my will or betrayal."

Is it?

Bai Jiuxiao raised his eyebrows imperceptibly, delighted by his words.

It seemed that all the anger just now disappeared at this moment.

"Did you hear that?" She turned her eyes and asked Bai Shixiang, "He has someone he likes, why do you bring him to the bedroom? Even if you get his man, you still won't get his heart."

Bai Shixiang really wanted to go back. She didn't want his heart in the first place, she only wanted his people.

But of course she dared not return.

"I heard it, I heard it, I was confused."

Bai Jiuxiao didn't make a sound, as if he was thinking.

For a while, there was complete silence in the hall, and needles could be heard falling.

"How about this, since today is Concubine Xi's birthday celebration, and it is inappropriate to see blood, this king will spare you from death, and spare you from the pain of flesh and blood."

The first sentence was about Ning Shiqian, and the second sentence was about Bai Shixiang.

Bai Shixiang's eyes lit up with joy, and Bai Jiuxiao continued: "But you must be punished, so the ten princesses will be fined for half a month, and the average punishment will be half a year."

what?
Bai Shixiang was dumbfounded.

Punishment for half a year is fine, half a month of confinement is tantamount to killing her!
"Brother Nine."

As soon as Bai Shixiang spoke, she was interrupted by Bai Jiuxiao: "Confinement for one month."

Bai Shixiang: "."

Just shut up.

"You," Bai Jiuxiao pointed at Ning Shiqian, "I still can't fully trust you. In other words, I'm not sure if you're plotting something wrong, so you're not allowed to perform on stage today. You must always follow me. Under the nose of the palace, you will leave the palace until the palace banquet is over."

Ning Shiqian was a little surprised, and quickly took orders: "Yes, thank you for not killing me, my lord."

Bai Shixiang was dumbfounded: "No, Brother Jiu, is this his punishment?"

"You feel lighter?" Bai Jiuxiao glanced at her.

"Of course it's light. He was originally punished with a death penalty, and I was punished with a rod. His crime is heavier than mine. Since he is being punished like this now, is my grounding and punishment too heavy?"

Bai Jiuxiao nodded: "Well, indeed."

Bai Shixiang happily thought that she was going to change, but then she heard her say: "This king said, this king is the truth, I can punish him however I want, and you can bargain with this king when it's your turn!"

Bai Shixiang: "."

Bai Jiuxiao got up and told Ning Shiqian: "You, put on your veil and go with me! Remember, don't play any tricks, otherwise, I will kill you at any time!"

"Yes." Ning Shiqian closed his eyes and got up from the ground.

The two left the inner hall one after the other.

The palace people outside knelt down and saluted.

Bai Jiuxiao commanded everyone in a deep voice: "Princess Ten is grounded for half a month, and this king will take care of her. Once she takes half a step out of Hongxiu Palace, all of you will be punished!"

The palace people trembled, and they all took orders: "Yes!"

After leaving the Hongxiu Palace, Bai Jiuxiao still walked in front, and Ning Shiqian followed behind.

Looking at Bai Jiuxiao's back, Ning Shiqian suddenly thought that this might be the closest he was to this enemy. If, if he shot suddenly, he should be able to kill this man.

However, if this is the case, he will definitely not be able to escape, not even the entire Niannan Liyuan.

So, he dismissed the idea, and the clenched hands under the sleeves of his robe loosened little by little.

When he came to the entrance of Nuanxiang Pavilion, Bai Jiuxiao stopped: "The palace banquet will start in some time, I want to read the memorial for a while."

Ning Shiqian thought that Bai Jiuxiao meant to ask him to wait at the door, after all the memorial is a secret.

After Bai Jiuxiao went in, he found that he hadn't followed, and turned around with a frown: "Didn't you be kept under my king's nose all the time?"

Ning Shiqian had no choice but to go in with him.

The inside is as luxuriously and elegantly decorated as the outside.

Bai Jiuxiao sat down in front of the table with his robe lifted, and asked him, "Can you study ink?"

"meeting."

"Then you study ink for me."

"Yes!"

Ning Shiqian stepped forward slowly, and lightly rolled up the sleeves of his robe.

"Sent by someone you like?"

Ning Shiqian was slightly startled, seeing where her line of sight was, he realized that she was asking about the silver cord on his wrist.

Thinking of a big man wearing this kind of thing on his hand, there is no other good excuse, so he simply replied: "Yes."

Bai Jiuxiao picked up a memorial on the case table, opened it, and began to read it.

Ning Shiqian first put the red ink ingot into the inkstone pool, then poured a little water and grinded it gently.
