Chapter 22 To save or not to save

He has stayed in the Ninth Prince's Mansion for nearly ten years. The number of times he has seen the Ninth Prince's expression of such great interest can be said to be counted on one's fingers, but he doesn't know what caused him to be so interested, it is really unbelievable.

Dongfang Ye naturally saw the solemn curiosity in his eyes, but he didn't give any explanation, and asked with a smile, "Sir, what is the purpose of coming to the king tonight?"

Zhuang Yan looked at him deeply, and hesitantly opened his mouth, "Zhuang Yan came here to ask the lord for something."

"Sir, it's okay to say." Dongfang Ye looked sideways at him.

Zhuang Yan nodded slightly in his clear eyes, and after pondering for a while, he suddenly said to Dongfang Ye with a serious expression: "Zhuang Yan knows that the prince has an extraordinary heart and is not an ordinary person, so I just beg the prince to keep a little bit of dignity in the future, so as not to hurt Jiu Yan." princess."

Although the person in front of him is only a young boy, his mind is as deep as a deep sea of ​​silence that no one can see through.He is thoughtful, too cunning and treacherous, the city is too deep, and he has too many calculations. He has always been good at making grand plans and can do everything step by step.What is he thinking, what is he going to do, no one can see through...

But such an unpredictable person is not a good companion.

From Zhuang Yan's point of view, Hua Chao followed him like a chess piece in the hands of a chess player, and he couldn't escape the big net no matter what.so……

"Oh?" Seemingly surprised by the words, Dongfang Ye raised his eyebrows, crossed his slender fingers, and spoke lazily.

A person who has had no desires or desires for many years actually begged himself for his newly married concubine today, heh, this is interesting!

Is it the smell that he will eventually kill the flowers?Then, after watching the good scene tonight, should he show mercy to her who is becoming more and more curious?
With his upper body turned slightly, his cold eyes stared at Zhuang Yan, and he said playfully, "It's rare to hear Mr. ask for help, but I don't know what is the relationship between Mr. Wang and my concubine?"

Zhuang Yan thought for a while, his eyes were cold, and he said: "It's just the daughter of an old friend."

Hearing the answer, Dongfang Ye was silent, and looked at Zhuang Yan for a long time, as if he finally believed his words, and nodded slightly.Then he continued to ask: "This king sees that the princess is not doing very well at home. Since she is the daughter of the husband's deceased, why didn't the husband go to Xilin Kingdom to help her?"

Hearing this, Zhuang Yan lowered his eyebrows, a glint of darkness flashed in his pupils, and his voice was a little erratic, and he replied slowly: "Everyone has their own destiny, the road is her own, and how she walks is also her own business. Others can help for a while but not for a lifetime.”

"Mr. High opinion." Dongfang Ye turned his head, but curled his lips meaningfully.After a moment of silence, he suddenly asked, "How many years have you been a housekeeper in the Nine Princes Mansion?"

Zhuang Yan was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, not knowing why Dongfang Ye would suddenly ask this question, looking at his unmoving face, unable to guess his thoughts, he just replied, "It's almost ten years. "

Nine years ago, he was accidentally injured and his life was in danger. It was Dongfang Ye who saved him.Later, in order to repay this life-saving grace, he promised Dongfang Ye to be the housekeeper of the palace for ten years.Now there are only three months left in the deadline, and he can leave.

"Time flies so fast." Hearing what he said, Dongfang Ye suddenly fell into deep thought.Afterwards, he asked indifferently: "If you want to leave the mansion, sir, where do you plan to go?"

Zhuang Yan replied unhurriedly: "Zhuang Yan has no plans yet." He is alone, and it is not always the same wherever he goes.

Dongfang Ye pondered for a moment in front of him, and finally said lightly, "If you like it, Mister, you can stay in the mansion."

Slightly startled, Zhuang Yan turned his head to stare at his unhappily handsome face, feeling very strange in his heart - this was the first time he had asked to keep him!
Dongfang Ye stopped talking, took a look at Zhuang Yan, turned around and stepped into the bedroom.Suddenly, as if he suddenly remembered something, he turned to Zhuang Yan again, with a pair of transparent pupils that were dark and bottomless.

"By the way, sir, do you know the art of controlling beasts?"

Zhuang Yan was a little stunned, and shook his head slightly, "Zhuang Yan has never heard of such spells."

"Really?" Dongfang Ye didn't seem surprised by the result, but he smiled meaningfully and turned away.However, what is hidden in the eyes is the strangeness that no one can see through.

Oh, everyone laughed at him for marrying a piece of grass, but he picked up a treasure.

This is quite a big surprise!

Back on the bed, Dongfang Ye opened his eyes, looking at the door thoughtfully, waiting for a certain woman who had done something bad to come back.

Time passed bit by bit, and Hua Chao finally rushed back home at the end of the hour.

There was a clear sound of light footsteps outside, and then Hua Chao's little black figure gently pushed open the door and walked in tiptoe, tripping over a low stool that had been moved along the way.Hearing her cursing in a low voice, he couldn't help but smirked, and slowly closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.

Hua Chao moved lightly to the bed, and found that Dongfang Ye was still fast asleep, so he let out a sigh of relief, and lay down beside him not too far away.Perhaps it was because of his poor health and he had been busy for half the night tonight, so he felt lingering exhaustion.

Not long after she closed her eyes, she felt sleepy.

A warm breath with a pure fragrance slowly blew on his face. Dongfang Ye opened his eyes and stared sideways at the sleeping woman. His fingers gently brushed her pale skin. With thin cheeks, she couldn't help curling the corners of her lips, and said softly: "...My dear lady, tell me, where did you learn the skill of controlling beasts, huh?" It's extremely long, it's a test, and it's a joke.

I remember that in the information obtained from the investigation, it was clearly not mentioned that she would have this skill.Why?It's so interesting that there are things that even he can't find...

The next day.

When Hua Chao woke up, she still felt like she was being stabbed like yesterday.

She frowned, rubbed her somewhat misty eyes, then glared at the eyes of the person beside her who was smirking at her, and said angrily, "Why do you keep staring at me when you don't sleep?"

When Dongfangye heard this, his smile deepened, his bright eyes were full of innocence, and he said to Huachao mysteriously: "My lady, Xiaoyeye had a dream last night."

Hua Chao rolled his eyes, suddenly feeling helpless.Well, this guy is just dreaming and wants to tell her now, does he really think she is a life nanny?However, she still responded patiently, "What dream? Is it a nightmare?"
