Jin Tingjiao

Chapter 86
Xiao Huai didn't expect her to answer so bluntly, and looked at her coolly for a while, then turned the cup in his hand: "I asked you to fill out the form, why did you fake it?"

No question means, just a statement.

Shen Xi didn't think he didn't know why.After a short pause, he bowed and said, "Because I didn't know that the prince would come to save us."

Now she is to him like a rabbit that was accidentally caught, there is no need to kill her, but she can be kept to sharpen her claws before letting go.

Xiao Huai looked at her, took a sip of tea, but didn't speak any more.

Shen Xi also focused slightly, it seems that this is a person who is not easily aroused.

Fortunately, she didn't want him to react more.

In any case, he saved her many times.

He has such an identity, even if he is a little arrogant and reckless, it is completely tolerable.

Then she put the hairpin back into her sleeve and said: "Your Majesty Xie helped the Minnv out of the siege. If there is nothing else, the Minnen will leave now."

Just after saying this, Su Yan, who is under the door, suddenly came in: "The prince is here!"

Shen Xi turned his head under the door and subconsciously looked at Xiao Huai.

Xiao Huai's expression has changed, and his brows are also furrowed.

Shen Xi did not break the law, so he is not afraid of seeing King Yan.

However, what He Lanzhun said earlier still echoed in her mind. Why did Chen Xiu attack her before he died? He Lanzhun still needs to explain to King Yan!

After all, Chen Xiu is a felon who has been sentenced to death. Since there are people involved in the whole process of the Yan Palace, it is unreasonable for him not to figure it out.

But she didn't know that King Yan would come so soon!
In this way, it must be He Lanzhun who informed King Yan of the news after they left.

Is He Lanzhun intentionally harming her?
This is of course impossible.

He didn't know that she was from Helian, and he just wanted to find out the connection between her and Chen Xiu.Even if it is clear, it is impossible to deliberately embarrass her.

But she couldn't explain it clearly—she said it was okay, would they believe it?

To convince them, she could only tell the story about her acquaintance with Xiao Huai before, or even the part in the alley, but that would be complicated!

Therefore, the best solution is to withdraw here and prevent King Yan from seeing him.

She was retaliated by Chen Xiu, at least it means that she is not Chen Xiu's accomplice, neither is she an accomplice, why is King Yan holding on to this matter?

But the sound of footsteps outside the door had already entered the room, how else could she retreat?
"follow me!"

While in a daze, Xiao Huai suddenly moved towards her like a phantom, then took her hand, and walked around the back curtain like a phantom, and stuffed her into the gap between the screen and the curtain!
The gap was only one foot wide. Although Shen Xi was thin and his frame was not thick, he was still too narrow to move!
She originally planned that if she couldn't avoid it, she would face it directly, and she might lose if she sees each other again.

But I didn't expect him to use this method!

"Father." Xiao Huai's cold and lifeless voice came over.

It was followed by a drawn-out "uh".

But the voice was surprisingly clear.

Xiao Huai is already in his early twenties, so the King of Yan should be at least not old, but he has such a voice.

She carefully looked out through a gap half a finger wide.

I saw that tall and low figure like Xiao Huai standing with his back facing her, the black python robe on his body was tailored very well, and his well-proportioned figure was modified like a young man in his twenties.

At his age, in such a position where he can sit back and relax, without a big belly, and without a little back, it is extremely rare.What's more, it's so well maintained.

"I heard that you brought back the woman who was assassinated by Chen Xiu in the execution ground earlier, where is she?"

King Yan's face turned towards Xiao Huai. From this angle, he could already see [-]% of his side face. This side face was somewhat similar to Xiao Huai's, and because he didn't have a beard, he looked much younger than his actual age.

But at this moment, Shen Xi has no time to pay attention to the demeanor of Da Zhou, the vassal king.

Because he really asked her when he came!

She settled down and listened to see how Xiao Huai would answer.

"Let's go." Xiao Huai said.

King Yan turned his face a little bit, his eyes stopped on his face, and he didn't move anymore. "gone?"

Xiao Huai's eyes fell on his feet, and he said firmly: "When I was arresting Chen Xiu in Qingshi Town, she came over unintentionally. Chen Xiu should have regarded her as my person, so when he saw her on the execution ground, he would be ashamed." down.

"I don't think she's seen much in the world, and her calves trembled after asking a few words, and she didn't bother to pester her, so she let her go."

Xiao Huai spoke with his slightly hoarse voice, lying completely without a trace.

Shen Xi was a little depressed.

She didn't shake her calves with fright...

However, these words were false and true, so she couldn't help secretly admiring them.

Since King Yan could arrive so quickly, it shows that He Lanchun, the head of the Chengqing Palace known as the White Tiger, is not just for nothing.

Since he can have such capable subordinates, the King of Yan must have something extraordinary in himself.

If Xiao Huai wanted to save her, he could only lie, but if he didn't tell the truth a few words, he might not be able to tell.

It's just that she doesn't understand why Xiao Huai is so wary of her own father?

Even if he said that she was here, it was just a bit troublesome to explain, King Yan would never go into it, let alone doubt her bloodline.

But the casualness, disdain, and even other things on his face before, are all gone now in front of King Yan.

"This is your decision?"

Yan Wang has turned around directly, facing him.

The words were spoken slowly, without audible anger, but there was a faint displeasure.

Xiao Huai was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "This woman is a victim, the Datong camp is in chaos right now, I don't think there is any need to dwell on the details."

King Yan stared at him for a while, then suddenly took two steps to the side, and casually flipped through the official documents on his case.

Xiao Huai stood beside him silently, like a rock.

The only sound in the room was the rustling of paper being flipped.

Shen Xi exhaled and inhaled very carefully, at this moment, he heard King Yan say again slowly: "Self-righteousness is the most undesirable thing."

Beside the official case, he put down the official document and turned his gaze back to Xiao Huai.

After staring at him like this for a while, he stepped up again and walked out the door with his hands behind his hands.

The footsteps gradually faded away and disappeared, but Xiao Huai was still standing there, staring at the ground, as if he had turned into a stone pile.

It had been quiet outside the door for a long time, Shen Xi let out a little breath.

But before she moved much, he suddenly stretched out his hand and threw something, hitting the curtain hook on top of her head!
The curtain hook jingled, and Shen Xi held his breath and concentrated on the spot again.

"Yes."

Suddenly, King Yan's voice sounded at the door again!

She held her breath and looked, only to see that King Yan actually folded back and picked up the few official documents he had flipped over on the table: "I'll take these back to have a look."

After he finished speaking, he glanced at him twice before walking out the door again.

Xiao Huai stood where he was, with his back turned to this side.

Shen Xi bowed his head and breathed.

She thought it was very ordinary, but he made it so hard that she seemed to be shameless.
