marry the princess

Chapter 11 Playing with fire and setting yourself on fire
During the few days when they were preparing to return to the General's Mansion, Su Leyan and Murong Huayi lived in peace, but Murong Huayi didn't send someone to deliver any "messy" things, Su Leyan didn't care, but Qingyue paid attention , Murong Huayi's indifference and concern for Su Leyan changed a little too quickly, she couldn't think of any reason.

"Won't the princess feel bored staying in the Shuixin Pavilion all day?"

On this day, Qingyue went out of the mansion to buy some things to go back to the general's mansion, so only Su Leyan and the maids sent by Murong Huayi remained in Shuixin Pavilion.Su Leyan was bored and sat in Shuixin Pavilion for a while, flipping through a few volumes of books, and Xiaoyou talked to her when she brought the cold food.

"It's really boring. Is your lord busy these days?" Su Leyan put the scroll aside and asked.

"The prince has been taking care of the matter of going back to the general's mansion with the princess these few days, he is a bit busy compared to usual." Xiaoyou replied.

In fact, Su Leyan didn't believe that Murong Huayi was busy with this matter. He must have just neglected his instructions on these matters. How could he be busy with everything by himself, but Su Leyan still responded verbally, "Let the prince worry about it."

"Going back to the princess's natal house, the prince is naturally interested." Xiaoyou looked at her with a smile, "The prince has not been here for a few days, but the princess misses the prince?"

Su Leyan felt a little embarrassed when asked this jokingly by the innocent Xiaoyou.

think?Thinking is naturally thinking, but it is not missing at all.

"I heard that the prince left the mansion early this morning. Maybe he was busy with something. When the prince is free, he will come to visit the princess..." Seeing that she didn't answer, Xiaoyou thought it was shy and looked at herself. Continuing freely, "Princess, Xiaoyou doesn't know whether to say something or not."

"You said."

Su Leyan glanced at her curiously, and Xiaoyou blinked, "The prince hasn't come to Shuixin Pavilion recently, Xiaoyou thinks that if the princess misses the prince, she should go to find him. The prince will be very happy when he sees the princess passing by." happy."

Must be very happy?

Su Leyan pondered for a while, and suddenly felt that Xiaoyou's suggestion was good.Why did she stay in Shuixin Pavilion so passively?She is the concubine of this palace, she can be regarded as half the master, she can go out and walk often - as for her current conflict with Murong Huayi, it depends on who is afraid of whom in the end...

Su Leyan smiled at Xiaoyou, "I've always been afraid that if I went to look for the lord, I would disturb him, but after hearing what you said, it's the same reason. If I didn't take the initiative to see the lord, it would seem that I I don't worry about caring about the prince at all, this princess is not competent at all. Although he is the prince, he is also my husband."

Xiaoyou smiled happily, "It's good for the princess to think so. The prince sent us to take care of the princess at the beginning, and told us to take care of it carefully. I'm afraid that the princess will not be used to living in the palace. The prince is very considerate to the princess."

With such a little matter being taken so seriously by them, this Murong Huayi must be so impersonal, to take care of a woman—or his "wife"'s woman is considered considerate?

Su Leyan also smiled slightly, looking at Xiaoyou.Xiaoyou's smile is very innocent, like a child's, her eyes are so clear that she can't hide anything.It seems that this maid is just an ordinary maid, not like Qingyue who Yan Zhi sent to monitor her.It seems that although the prince doesn't like her very much, he doesn't regard her as a particularly big threat.

"Xiaoyou, let's go out for a walk. You are more familiar with this palace than I am, so you can take me for a walk." Su Leyan smiled and suggested, "If the prince comes back, I can also go and see him."

So for more than half of the morning, Su Leyan walked around the palace with Xiaoyou.The palace is indeed too big, and many places have not been visited yet, but Xiaoyou took her to look around some of the more important places one by one.However, Su Leyan's memory is really not as good as Qingyue's. Xiaoyou came back after a half circle, but she still didn't know where she was, and just followed Xiaoyou's footsteps.

"This is the prince's study."

In front of the attic, which is very elegantly built, there are unicorns squatting on the corners of the high cornices, and there are red silk and copper bells hanging under it, and there is a pleasant crisp sound when the breeze passes.The house is built entirely of mahogany, and the six logs erected outside are about as thick as three people hugging each other. They are smooth and glow in the sun, and there are no patterns carved on them, as long as some auspicious clouds are tattooed on the ring of the base. In the middle is the door of the study room, and above the engraved mahogany door hangs a resplendent and resplendent plaque, with the three big characters of "Mo Yixuan" written in gold-plated characters.

"Mo Yixuan?"

Su Leyan read it softly, then walked over there, Xiaoyou hurriedly followed, faltering and blocking: "Princess, here...you can't enter here without the order of the prince."

"Why can't I get in?"

"The lord has ordered that no one is allowed to enter here except him." Xiaoyou also couldn't explain it. Anyway, his master ordered so, and anyone should include the princess.

"Even I can't get in?" Su Leyan asked her back, Xiaoyou couldn't answer, so Su Leyan continued, "Okay, if the prince gets weird, just say I wanted to get in and it has nothing to do with you."

After finishing speaking, Su Leyan stepped up the stairs, pushed the door open and entered, Xiaoyou was so anxious behind that she didn't want to say no, and she couldn't help but stamp her feet anxiously on the spot.

The study room is very simply furnished, except for the bookcases in the room, there is only a book table on the left side of the small couch by the window in the south, a rattan chair, and a half-person-high chair is placed on the right back of the rattan chair under the window. A large blue and white porcelain vase with a few scrolled scrolls in it.

Su Leyan didn't go to the desk, but just walked around among the bookcases.Murong Huayi has a large collection of books, which are also classified in detail. Naturally, she is not interested in those military books and historical records. After walking around, she stopped in front of the bookcase of scriptures and different books.

Su Leyan has always been a teacher in Caoluotang. Except for the poems and sentences taught by her mother when she was a child, she mostly learned from Mr. Wu in Caoluotang, but she has already read Mr. Wu's books. Looking at the cabinet full of books made her suddenly a lot happier. She picked up a thin book and flipped through it with relish...

"I didn't expect my princess to be so studious and inquisitive."

"what--"

Just as Su Leyan put back the book she had finished reading over there, and reached out to reach for the book on it, a cold voice suddenly sounded in her ear, and Su Leyan suddenly screamed in surprise.

"Wow—" "Crack!!"

A ghostly, cold voice suddenly resounded in this quiet room, biting her like a little snake jumping out of nowhere, frightening her into a cold sweat, shaking her hand, knocking down the book... ...Murong Huayi quickly grabbed one of the thickest books, and although he kicked her to block it, the falling books still fell on Su Leyan, and she subconsciously covered her face and shrank into a ball, like It was trembling like a frightened little animal.

Murong Huayi put the book back on the shelf, "Is this king really that scary?"

Su Leyan recognized that it was Murong Huayi's voice, she put down her hands timidly and took a look, and breathed a sigh of relief when she was sure it was really him.Su Leyan is most afraid of ghosts. The study was originally quiet, but suddenly there was a sound, and she couldn't help thinking wildly.But before Su Leyan let go of her breath, she realized that Murong Huayi's complexion was not good at the moment, and she stared at her sharply.

Su Leyan didn't intend to make things difficult for Murong Huayi, this study was so attractive to her, she expected that even if Murong Huayi forbids anyone to enter without permission, he would not put any important things in such an obvious place , so she came in to have a look, but she didn't expect to be caught by Murong Huayi.

"Why, aren't you going to explain it?" Murong Huayi asked, enduring her silence with a good temper.

Su Leyan calmed down and was covered in cold sweat. She lowered her eyes to look at the scrolls that were scattered all over the floor. Just to hide her panic, she bent down to pick them up, and tried her best to answer his question calmly, "I was bored in the palace, so I came out Let's go, and take a look at the books here."

"By the way?" Murong Huayi looked at her who was concentrating on picking up the books, "You broke into the study room without my king's order, do you know what will happen?"

Su Leyan paused when she picked up the books, then immediately returned to normal, stacked the scrolls in her arms and stood up, looking at him, "Your Majesty can't bear to part with a few books?"

Murong Huayi didn't answer directly, and there was an unclear smile on his lips, "However, you were born in the general's mansion, and I heard that you can't play piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Wangfu, are you suddenly interested in these scrolls?"

Su Leyan's hand holding the scroll tightly, this Yan Xinyao is really useless in his eyes.

"I didn't expect the lord to be so 'attentive' to me, but if the lord wants to know me, there is no need to pick up some 'heard'." Being ridiculed by Murong Huayi, Su Leyan stared at him unwillingly, and responded with a playful smile, "After all, I'm here with you right now, aren't I?"

Murong Huayi's brows twitched, this woman is provoking now?With so many books in her arms, does she know there is a phrase called "playing with fire and setting yourself on fire"?
Obviously, Su Leyan didn't realize that her provocation was "playing with fire and self-immolation". When she was still a little complacent that she had left Murong Huayi speechless, Murong Huayi had already softened his face and raised an ambiguous smile .

"You are by my side now..."

Murong Huayi repeated her words, and approached her in a low and seductive voice, "You are right, you are by my side now."

Murong Huayi suddenly smiled at her, and Su Leyan suddenly realized how ambiguous what she just said was being repeated by Murong Huayi, especially Murong Huayi's deep eyes were still full of ambiguity. Staring at her with a deep smile.

Su Leyan's body trembled from the cold, and she couldn't help walking backwards. When her steps were still in the air, Murong Huayi's hand slid against her waist and slid to her back, and suddenly pulled her into his arms. There is no escape for her.

Su Leyan let out a low voice, and then blushed, inch by inch from her cheeks to behind her ears.Although there is a bookcase here, the light is not very strong, but Murong Huayi clearly watched her face change from white to red, and the expression that originally said that turned into remorse.

He evoked a smug smile, lowered his head slightly towards her, and stopped when he was almost kissing her, "Yan Xinyao, you deliberately broke into my study to attract my king's attention, so that I can have a good time." Does it take you seriously?"

Su Leyan was very nervous, her breathing became difficult, as if she had been fixed for a moment, she stared blankly at Murong Huayi's face which was close at hand.

"Why, are you really insincere? You told me that the well water does not violate the river water in a majestic manner before, but you have come to provoke me time and time again. Last time, you said you were by my side..." Murong Hua Yi exhaled like blue, and said in a deceptively low voice, "Since you have put so much effort into it, how could this king have the nerve to let you do nothing?"

Murong Huayi made a gesture and wanted to kiss her lips, Su Leyan shuddered and subconsciously tried to hide, but unfortunately the distance between the bookcase and the bookcase was not far, and with one hand firmly around her waist, she There is no way to avoid it.

"It turns out that the majestic Fourteenth Prince is capable of this."

When Murong Huayi was about to touch her red lips, Su Leyan threw out a word coldly, and then Murong Huayi stopped moving, neither advancing nor retreating, "Speak."

"Since you guessed that I've tried my best, then let me 'succeed' so easily, okay?" Su Leyan swallowed nervously, "Is the lord trying to cover up? I did something that didn't suit your wishes , you can't punish me because of sympathy, so you use this compromise as a prevarication?"

Murong Huayi waited for her, but Su Leyan didn't continue to speak, so he slightly hooked the corners of his lips, "Is there anything else you want to say?" He didn't let her go at all.

Su Leyan's body trembled involuntarily after being questioned by him, "Get out of the way."

"That means there is nothing to say. Whether it is punishment or compromise, you should know."

Su Leyan's eyes, which had been pretending to be calm just now, suddenly became overwhelmed. Murong Huayi didn't give her another chance to speak, and the hand around her waist suddenly tightened, and her stiff body was immediately pressed against his chest...
