Concubine's true colors

Chapter 39
Xiao Jinxuan glanced at the other party calmly, not flustered by Zhou Xianrui's directness.

After all, he had dealt with each other in his previous life, so this Prince Rui's temperament was already like this, he did things neatly and never dragged his feet, no matter what he said, he always made it clear to his face.

Shaking her head with a smile, Xiao Jinxuan asked instead of answering: "Why is Your Highness so confident? If you don't come, will Jinxuan have no way out?"

Zhou Xianrui took a deep look at her, and said calmly: "At that time, this king really couldn't think of how else you could get out. You owe me a favor, and you won't suffer."

Xiao Jinxuan laughed when she heard the words, and raised her voice and said: "Yes, but debts of favor are always the most difficult to repay. If I owe it today, I am afraid that when His Highness asks for it in the future, my Xiao family will refuse no matter how difficult it is. "

Zhou Xianrui didn't speak, just smiled.Because the woman in front of her has a clear mind and has already said everything he didn't say.

That's right, when he saw the Black Tiger Token today, he brought people here without hesitation, in order to make the Xiao family owe him a favor, so that it would be easier to use when he needed it someday.

The person on the opposite side didn't speak, but Xiao Jinxuan continued: "But I think Prince Rui is wrong, this is not because I owe you a favor, but on the contrary, His Highness owes me a huge favor."

Zhou Xianrui raised his eyebrows, and asked with interest: "Miss Si, tell me, why does this king owe you a favor after saving you?"

Xiao Jinxuan's eyes were as cunning as a fox, and she said with a smile: "If it wasn't for the fact that Jinxuan forced the Sixth Prince and the others into chaos today, and lost his sense of control, Your Highness, where did you get the chance to send the Sixth Prince, Song Peng and others away in a few words? Now that there is no leader in Yangzhou's officialdom, it is definitely a good opportunity for His Highness, do you think you owe Jinxuan a big favor?"

Zhou Xianrui was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed, because as the other party said, he was really happy today. After arriving in Yangzhou, the sixth younger brother, Ji Lingfeng and others, were his great disaster.

But now that the sixth prince is restrained from thinking about it, Ji Lingfeng will not even think about getting out of bed for ten and a half months, and the rest will be scolded by him, like Song Peng who was beaten by Shuang. In such a situation, there is a complete breakthrough.

But as Xiao Jinxuan said, favor is the most difficult debt to repay, and the other party is unwilling to owe it easily, and so is Zhou Xianrui.

Seeing him coughing twice, most of the coldness on his face disappeared, and he said with a low smile: "Speaking of which, this king should indeed accept this favor, but I also saved the fourth lady today, so let's be bullshit." draw."

However, Xiao Jinxuan shook her head and said in disapproval: "If His Highness doesn't come today, Jinxuan has her own way of escape. Compared with what I did for His Highness, your love for helping His Highness is dispensable. How can you argue with each other?" Flat."

When she went to Song Peng, how could she not think of a way to get out and ask Wenxin to invite Zhou Xianrui. She really hoped that the other party would help her, but the most important thing was to ask Zhou Xianrui to accept this favor.

The other party is the prince, and when she returns to the capital in the future, based on today's events, if she is really in trouble and begs to come to her door, the other party will naturally not stand idly by.

After being reborn, Xiao Jinxuan's external factors have not changed except her heart has changed. She is still the most humble concubine of the Xiao family who has no power or power.

Therefore, every time she takes a step, she has to plan out a ten-step path, and even more so, she has to gradually plump her wings and grasp more cards, so that she can be invincible as soon as possible.

I have to say that books are a good thing. They not only increase her knowledge, but also make her think further, see longer, know how to choose and lose, and learn how to win together.

Zhou Xianrui looked at Xiao Jinxuan, this gentle woman, he had never seen such intelligence and composure in other women.

Seeing him smile, he said slowly: "Okay, if Miss Si can tell you how to get out if the king doesn't come, I will accept the favor of Miss today, and I will never forget it in the future."

All you need is your words!

After hearing what she wanted, Xiao Jinxuan slowly took out something from her sleeve and handed it to Zhou Xianrui.

Puzzled, he took what was in the opponent's hand and fiddled with it a few times. Zhou Xianrui asked in confusion, "Huozhezi? Fourth Miss, this is your answer."

Xiao Jinxuan smiled when she heard the words, nodded and said, "Could it be that Prince Rui didn't smell anything else when standing in front of those five carriages full of grain?"

Zhou Xianrui knew that the woman in front of him was extremely intelligent, so there was a reason for her to ask such a question.

So he tried his best to think back at the moment, narrowed his eyes and said: "At that time, this king seemed to smell a strong greasy smell."

Suddenly he clenched the fire folder in his hand, and looked at Xiao Jinxuan in disbelief, the expression on his face clearly showed that he had thought through the mystery.

Xiao Jinxuan sneered, and said with cold eyes: "That's right, just as His Highness thinks in his heart now, the sacks used for nearly a hundred bags of grain have been soaked in vegetable oil for two days and two nights in advance. And I put five The carriages are connected end to end, as long as I throw this fire bag on the carriage, the hundred bags of grain will be reduced to ashes in an instant."

Zhou Xianrui took a deep breath, and then said: "The people around are intimidated by the identity of the sixth brother and dare not move around, but when they see the life-saving food being destroyed because of them, they must be very angry. For the matter, it will not be Miss Fourth who will have an accident at that time, I am afraid that due to public grievances, it will be my sixth younger brother and a group of people who will lose their lives, is this king right?"

The little girl in front of her said confidently just now that even if he doesn't make a move, there is a way to escape.

It's not that Zhou Xianrui didn't believe it, he even thought that the other party's method was nothing more than to mention his father's name to make the sixth prince and others afraid.

Or no matter how bad it is, even if he doesn't come, it is feasible to subdue first and keep yourself safe.

But he never expected that the other party's so-called method was not to retreat but to advance, and the idea was to directly take the lives of the sixth prince and the whole group.

And he has to admit that Xiao Jinxuan's method is not only feasible, but also has a very high success rate.

Not only that, because the law does not blame the public, and was angered by the people, and was besieged. Afterwards, Xiao Jinxuan will not be held responsible in the slightest.

The scheme was vicious and impermeable, and only now did Zhou Xianrui truly realize how terrifying this woman in front of him was.

Xiao Jinxuan smiled, and said softly: "Your Highness is right. Since they have tried to harm me several times, Jinxuan has no great ability, but she will never sit still, so naturally she will fight back."

Hearing this, Zhou Xianrui sighed and said: "I knew that the fourth lady would have such a plan and I would not come here. In order to let me accept this favor, such a good opportunity was wasted in vain. The lady doesn't think it's a pity, but the king thinks it's a pity." Pity."

He also figured it out, whether it is the Sixth Prince and others, or Zhou Xianrui himself, he has become this little girl, a pawn on the chessboard.

The other party first set Song Peng back to save the Xiao family's face, and then gave him a favor, which he had no choice but to accept.

Fortunately, Zhou Xianrui felt that the winner this time was himself, and he didn't want the real big winner to be the fourth lady sitting opposite him.

Xiao Jinxuan lowered her head, and said in a cold voice: "Your Highness, don't feel sorry, don't you think that the sixth prince and others will really sit and wait for death, I'm afraid they will make a move soon, and when the other party shows their flaws, you may not have a chance to take care of them. "

Ignoring Xiao Jinxuan in front of him, apart from being a woman, Zhou Xianrui felt that the person sitting in front of him and talking smoothly was a confident and knowledgeable counselor. Suddenly, a strange feeling flashed in his heart, and a strange idea suddenly appeared. out.

He said in a condensed voice: "What Miss Si said today, I feel that you are only half-honest. I am afraid that you are planning more than that. You want to avenge the Xiao family's bedding. After all, I will not stay in Yangzhou for long. , and Miss Yangzhou is so resourceful, there is absolutely nothing that needs my help, but you have tried your best to let this king inherit your favor, and the place where this king will stay forever is Changping, the capital. To pave the way for the future, it is Marshal Xiao's mansion."

Xiao Jinxuan's breathing was stagnant, and she looked at Zhou Xianrui with ice-like eyes. She really didn't expect that the other party was so keen, and could see her thoughts so clearly.
Unexpectedly, the person who tried to kill her several times in the previous life has become the person who understands her thoughts best in this life, which is really unbelievable.

Seeing Xiao Jinxuan like this, Zhou Xianrui knew that his guess was right.

She smiled and said: "From this point of view, this king is Miss Fourth's confidant. In fact, we can not only become confidantes, but I think we can even become allies. What do you think, Miss?"

Xiao Jinxuan clenched her hand tightly, she knew that the olive branch thrown by Prince Rui was very important to her.

Looking directly at Zhou Xianrui, she said word by word: "I will help His Highness take care of the Sixth Prince and others. When I arrive in the capital in the future, you will protect my life. How does Your Highness feel about this condition?"

Zhou Xianrui looked at Xiao Jinxuan curiously again. He really didn't expect that the other party's condition was this. Could it be that this woman will be predictable and have no worries about her life?It was as if someone would take her life.

However, it is not difficult for him to save the life of a little girl, not to mention that he really needs the other party's head of strategy, so he nodded and agreed without hesitation.

The two reached an agreement, and the carriage stopped not long after, and then Wenxin opened the carriage and said, "Jinxuan, we are here, I will help you get out of the carriage."

Xiao Jinxuan got up, seeing that Zhou Xianrui was also getting off the car, she hurriedly said: "Your Highness, let's go back in my carriage today, we are allies now, it is a good thing for me that you get well soon, Jinxuan will not be stingy, I don’t even want to lend you a carriage.”

Zhou Xianrui laughed when he heard the words, thanked him, and then sat down instead of getting up.

Xiao Jinxuan got out of the carriage, gave a salute, then turned around and walked towards Xiao's mansion, while Wen Xin, who was following her, approached mysteriously.

He also took out a small white jade gourd, and said in a low voice: "Jinxuan, you don't know, I invited Prince Rui to rush to the gate of the mansion, and when I was about to walk to your side, suddenly a person who looked like a maid stopped me and took this The little gourd stuffed it to me, and told me to hand it over to you, and she ran away after speaking, I don't think this thing is simple."

Xiao Jinxuan was also taken aback when she heard the words, and immediately took the gourd over. After holding it, she felt that it was extremely light, so she knew that this thing was probably hollow, and if there was a mystery, it would be fixed inside.

Walking quickly to a secluded place, Xiao Jinxuan smashed the gourd to the ground without saying a word, and as expected, a small silk cloth appeared in front of her.

Bending down to pick up the silk cloth, she quickly opened it to look.

I saw that there were only seven words written on the cloth: Yu Wang is in trouble, save him quickly!
