Jiaochu

Chapter 457 Testing
After He Li left, Hua Gongzi also entered the room. Seeing that the person was still asleep with his eyes closed, he glanced at the shoes placed beside the bed, sat down on the stool, and said, "What did you overhear?" Lingxi stopped pretending, opened his eyes, sat up, stared at the eyes behind the mask and asked, "Why are you helping me?" Hua Gongzi said, "Didn't the princess hear everything just now?"

This time, Ye Lingxi did not deny it and said straight to the point: "Since you know my identity and are still helping me, it seems that you are not sincerely seeking refuge with Mr. He."

The playboy smiled and said, "Then what do you want me to do, princess?"

Ye Lingxi said: "It's very simple. Take off the mask first."

The playboy smiled again and said, "I'm afraid of scaring the princess."

Ye Lingxi said: "Is it possible that you are ugly, or do you look like a fox with evil intentions?"

Hua Gongzi said: "I don't have any bad intentions towards the princess. If I had any bad intentions, I wouldn't help the princess."

Who knows if it's a real gang or a fake gang? Ye Lingxi muttered in his heart, and didn't want to talk in circles anymore. He asked directly: "Then what are you doing here and what benefits can you get?"

The playboy said: "I'm just bored. I came here to watch the show. I didn't expect to see the princess." His eyes evoked a trace of amusement, and he asked, "Then what benefits can the princess get when she comes back from the adventure?" ?”

Since he knew that she had come back from an adventure, he must have arrived before her, Ye Lingxi thought to herself, and asked when she came. Young Master Hua said that he had only arrived a few days earlier than her. When it came to the assassin in the future, he would ask Zhan. , if she wanted to save people, he could help. Ye Lingxi asked him what the assassin had to do with her, and why she wanted to save people.

"Why should the princess be so guarded against me? I won't harm the princess. If I really wanted to harm the princess, I would have told the second young master the princess's identity just now."

That makes sense, she said to herself, and asked him tentatively where the person was being held. Playboy asked her to answer a question first.

"Why did the princess come back?" The eyes behind the mask stared closely at hers, as if they wanted to see into her heart, wanting to confirm a certain answer, whether it was because of one person or something else.

Ye Lingxi said, "I'll come back as soon as I want. Are you satisfied with this answer?"

Hua Gongzi smiled, and did not say whether he was satisfied or dissatisfied. He said, "People are locked up in this mansion. The princess alone can't save anyone." She asked where they were in the house, and Hua Gongzi suddenly stood up and walked towards her. , she retracted to the corner of the bed and wrapped herself tightly in the quilt. He turned around and left again, as if he was deliberately teasing her.

After staring at the person walking out of the house, Ye Lingxi quickly got out of bed and put on his shoes. He walked to the window and took a look. He saw the person standing in the yard. He felt that this person was neither an enemy nor a friend. He said he was here to watch a show, but it seemed true. I guess this person's temperament must be a bit weird in normal times. Such people are moody and angry, and it's not easy to guess their thoughts. However, it seems that he has no hostility towards her at present, but he doesn't really want to help her, so he still needs to observe and observe.

If what the other party said is true and the person is really locked up in the house, there must be guards keeping strict watch.

She looked at the sky and saw that it was almost dinner time. If people were locked up in the house, someone would be there to deliver food. There would be no good in starving people to death.

She had to go check out the kitchen.

After thinking about it, she walked out of the house and said she was hungry and asked where the kitchen was. The dude said someone would bring it to her later. She said the cook here would definitely not be able to cook what she wanted to eat. The dude didn't object anymore and took her with him. Went to the kitchen.

She felt that the eyes behind the mask had seen through her little trick, but did not reveal it. Their attitude was playful, just like a cat teasing a mouse. This feeling seemed familiar. She slowed down and looked at the playboy from behind. If she only looked at the upper body , the back does look somewhat similar, could it really be him? Could it be that his leg has healed? She looked at the face wearing the fox mask again, and the eyes behind the mask also looked over, and she said, "I found that you look quite similar to someone I know." Playboy said, " Even the princess can see it even with the mask on. It seems that the princess really misses this person." She said, "He is the prince of the North. I did him a favor before, and he promised to do me a favor. Man. A true man can't follow his words."

Hua Gongzi asked meaningfully, "Does the princess want me to be him, or not?" Ye Lingxi thought about it and said, "As for you, I don't know if you are sincerely helping, or if you are playing a bigger trick. He’s waiting for me to get in. Although he’s a bit weird and his words don’t sound very nice, he will definitely not break his promise.”

"Princess, are you so sure?" Mr. Hua asked.

Ye Lingxi said: "If he breaks his promise, then he will treat me as blind and saw the wrong person, and we will never have any contact with him from now on."

Hua Gongzi smiled and said: "I still want to see the princess more. How about this, I help the princess rescue people, so that the princess can believe that I am sincere?" Ye Lingxi stared at him suspiciously for a few seconds. For a second, those eyes were calm, showing neither sincerity nor guilt. He was really a master at hiding his emotions. That's all. Let's believe him for now. If he really helped her rescue the person, she wouldn't be at a loss.

"You helped me, what should I tell you to the second young master?"

"I'm afraid the princess has misunderstood. I don't take orders from the Second Young Master, so naturally I don't have to explain to him."

While talking, the two of them arrived near the kitchen. Ye Lingxi observed the servants who came to pick up dinner. A guard with a sword attracted her attention. Not long after he entered the kitchen, he was carrying a food box. Out.

The two quietly followed the guard and saw the guard entering the courtyard at the back. There were two guards guarding the door. About a quarter of an hour later, another person came out of it, it was He Li.

Those stern and cold eyes glanced around, and Ye Lingxi immediately hid behind the wall, and then hit the person behind her with the back of her head. She heard a hiss, and those stern eyes immediately glanced this way, and immediately a The dagger flew over, and she immediately squatted down. Young Master Hua was about to give her a hand. When he saw her squatting on the ground, he squatted on the ground as well, and quietly warned, "Don't look up, the Second Young Master is coming."

As soon as he finished speaking, He Li came over with two guards. When he saw the fox mask, he looked surprised, and then became gloomy and suspicious again, "What are you doing here, Brother Hua?" As he spoke, he glanced again He glanced at Ye Lingxi, who had his head lowered. Although he couldn't see his face clearly, he had changed into clean clothes and combed his hair into a bun. He looked quite pretty, "Brother Hua, your eyesight is not bad at all. This little girl looks so good in the film." It’s quite pleasant to tidy up.”

Hearing this, Ye Lingxi immediately hid behind Hua Gongzi. Now he just needs to be a coward. The playboy looked back, with a playful curve at the corner of his mouth, and said sharply, "A country girl is not very knowledgeable. It was her first time to enter such a big house, so she pestered me to take her around. I never wanted to let her go." The young master was frightened."

He Li smiled and said: "A girl's movie will not frighten me. However, I told Brother Hua before that people should be honest when they live in the house. Don't ask what you shouldn't ask, and don't pry about what you shouldn't. Otherwise, , easy to die."

The playboy smiled and said nothing.

The atmosphere was a little cold again.

"It's almost getting dark." He Li ordered the two guards to strengthen their defenses at night to prevent others from taking advantage of the situation. When he spoke, he glanced at Ye Lingxi to observe her reaction, and then left.

"You seem to have offended him." Ye Lingxi said.

"There are many people who have offended me, and he is not the least of them." Hua Gongzi said.
