Empress marry

Chapter 1180 And this tone is somehow resentful?
"Why are you here?" He concealed the undetectable fluctuation in his eyes, and Xia Houyuan sneered lightly, "I thought you planned to need someone to pick you up tonight like last night, or you would simply stay in the palace and not come back. ?”

"Why are you talking sourly?"

"..."

The man's face suddenly darkened.

Shangguan Yuxi closed the door and walked straight in front of him, his eyes fixed on his face, "Xia Houyuan, I have something to ask you."

He frowned, lowered his eyes lightly, "I don't want to answer."

Shangguan Yuxi took a slight breath, and asked in a patient and good-tempered manner, "Why don't you want to answer?"

"When you don't want to, let me go away and don't touch you. When you want, you can rush to me and question me. Why do you think I have to answer your questions?" He said lightly, "The body and mind are different. , so you can't force me to answer you."

She thought it was funny that he used such a high-sounding reason to block her?

And this tone is inexplicably somewhat resentful?
But she couldn't laugh anymore, she tightly clenched her palms, and said with a stiff face: "Did you do what happened to Lian Yu's family?"

Xia Houyuan paused slightly as he casually arranged the books on the case.

"what's up?"

"Are you playing dumb with me?"

She smiled coldly, "Master Mo Hou is indeed not a good official with integrity, but he is not the only one who is doing this kind of fishing in troubled waters. Even I, a princess who doesn't understand court affairs, knows that the emperor Brother would choose to turn a blind eye even if he knew about it, but someone poked a hole in such a big deal, so that Lord Mo had to be judged by everyone in the end, and almost even the hereditary title Lost it too, you said—why is that?"

Xia Houyuan lowered his eyelids, and there was a slight arc on his lips, very shallow and very faint, all hidden in the dark shadow, his expression was indistinguishable, "You also said that you don't understand court affairs, so don't speculate on your own. Brother Huang's thoughts."

"I don't speculate, I'll wait for you to tell."

"There is nothing to say. You have preconceived the answer that you think is right. What else do you want me to say?"

Shangguan Yuxi closed his eyes, "Xia Houyuan, I don't make assumptions first. As long as you give me a reasonable answer, I will believe you."

"is it?"

"Yes!"

She can abandon everything she heard from the emperor's uncle just now, as long as he says.

Only then did the man raise his eyes to look at her again, "What answer do you want to hear?" He came out from behind the case and walked in front of her, approaching her step by step, his sharp eyes lowered and fell on hers, "I did all of this because of you, or did your brother want to punish Mohou's family on purpose? No matter which answer you want to hear, I can give you a reasonable explanation."

Shangguan Yuxi gritted his teeth, "I want to hear the truth, not a reasonable rhetoric."

Xia Houyuan narrowed his eyes to examine her for a long time, the dark eyes enveloping her heavily, as if he wanted to suck her whole body in.

Shangguan Yuxi was finally defeated, "Besides this, there is Zheng Fan's matter."

"Oh?"

"At the beginning, I wondered, how could the good-looking concubine of the Shangshu Mansion appear on Zheng Fan's bed and be seen by so many people? This was obviously premeditated, so the queen mother suspected me at the beginning, because of the vested interest in this matter. The only beneficiary is me."
