Allure of a Country Maiden

Shangguan Xuanyi took Xiaoer's hand and returned to the cabin. He felt a little uncomfortable, so he didn't speak much the whole way.

But Xiaoer still felt that he was unhappy, so she pulled Shangguan Xuanyi's hand: "Brother Shangguan, you are unhappy."

This is not a question, but a cliché.

"Yes." Shangguan Xuanyi did not deny it. He opened the door of the room, pulled Xiaoer in, and then the two sat down around the round table.

"Aren't you happy that I'm talking to Mr. Zhao? Mr. Zhao, what's wrong with you?" Xiaoer guessed as she picked up a piece of watermelon on the table and took a bite.

But I'm afraid it would be a bit troublesome not to talk to Zhao Youwei, because Zhao Youwei is Fu Ranhui's fiancé. Due to his friendship with Fu Ranhui, and Fu Ranhui is the daughter of the eldest princess, she will be seen at palace banquets in the future, and there are quite a lot of opportunities to meet. You can't stop talking.

"No, I'm just unhappy with the way he looks at you." This made Shangguan Xuanyi feel extremely depressed. He didn't like others coveting his girl, but he couldn't stop it.

What's more, he didn't give a secret warning.

Zhao Youwei usually looks at Xiaoer secretly, so Xiaoer really doesn't know how he looks at her.

"What look?"

"I don't know, I just don't like him! If you see him in the future, you should take a detour! Girl, why aren't you an ugly girl?" That way no outsider will take a second look!

After hearing this, Xiaoer rolled her eyes at him: "You can't be ugly! Don't you know that there are beauty products in my space? If I were an ugly girl, would you like me?"

"When I first met you, you looked malnourished and definitely not beautiful. Didn't I fall in love with you?!" Is he such a superficial person? ! He is not a person who only cares about looks! What he values ​​​​is connotation!

"But you didn't like me at that time!"

"……"There's none? Shangguan Xuanyi had forgotten when he fell in love with this girl.

Anyway, I know that I can't help but pay attention to her and like to be where she is.

She used to be in Shengping County, and he always wanted to go to Shengping County.

Later, when she was in the Imperial Capital, he didn't want to leave the Imperial Capital again.

I always feel that I am very happy and at ease when I have her by my side.

Seeing that he didn't respond, Xiaoer couldn't help leaning her head towards him and asked: "Brother Shangguan, when did you like me?"

Shangguan Xuanyi looked at the enlarged face in front of him, how could he not steal the sweetness that was delivered to his door?

He couldn't help but kiss it: "I don't know when I liked it, but when I found out I liked it, I already liked it very much!"

Xiao'er wanted to ask how much she liked it, but then the boat stopped. It must have been that it had arrived at Ji'er Island and the boat had docked.

Yang Liu's voice came from outside the door at the right time: "Master, young lady, we have arrived at Jie'er Island."

After hearing this, Xiaoer sat up straight and then stood up: "Let's go! See what the legendary uninhabited wilderness is like."

Ji'er Island is a remote, wild and dangerous place. Compared with the prosperity of the Central Plains, it is a hell for criminals. Water shortages lead to a shortage of food resources. Even if you are diligent enough to open up wasteland and grow vegetables and food, there is not enough fresh water for irrigation. .

In addition, the Jier Strait has high winds and strong waves. In the eyes of many ancients, it was an insurmountable barrier. Those criminals were exiled here, surrounded by the sea, and it would be difficult to escape without a boat.

Although it is an island, it is a place where prisoners are exiled. You cannot imagine how beautiful it is.

Barren and deserted are the best adjectives.

Shangguan Xuanyi took Xiaoer out of the boat and onto the shore. At this time, some officials, soldiers and generals from Nangong Kingdom were already waiting on the shore.

Those people saluted Shangguan Xuanyi and Xiaoer.

"Prince Minze Guorui, the emperor has already decreed that Jian'er Island will belong to Nangong Kingdom from now on. We will retreat now!"

"Okay." Shangguan Xuanyi nodded.

The minister of Honglu Temple immediately stepped forward and signed the contract document with him.

The Minister of Honglu Temple took a careful look at the contents of the document and felt that there was no problem, so he presented it to Shangguan Xuanyi: "Prince Rui, take a look. If there is no problem, we will sign."

Shangguan Xuanyi took it, took a look, and nodded without any questions.

It feels a little unreal that things are going so smoothly.

"Prince Rui, there are not many people on the island. The rest are the criminals exiled by Nangong Kingdom. They have done many evil things in their lives and are unforgivable! If you think they are pleasing to you, just keep them to suffer on the island. If If you don't like them, kill them all! We won't take these criminals away."

After saying this, the official of Nangong Kingdom turned to look at the criminals and said: "From now on, this island will be under the control of Minze Kingdom. Your life or death will be decided by Prince Rui of Minze Kingdom!"

After hearing this, the criminals all knelt down to Shangguan Xuanyi: "Prince Rui, please spare your life! Lord Rui, please spare your life!"

Shangguan Xuanyi frowned when he looked at these exiled prisoners. He looked at the officials of Nangong Kingdom and coldly uttered two words: "Take them away!"

Who knows if among these people there are spies deliberately arranged by Nangong Kingdom.

After hearing this, the officials of Nangong Kingdom hurriedly smiled and said: "Prince Rui, it's not that I don't want to take them away, it's just that our ship is relatively small and can't carry so many people at once. There is always a need for some people to do rough work on this island. , just let them do any dirty or tiring work."

At this time, Xiaoer pulled Shangguan Xuanyi's sleeves and signaled him to keep these people.

Shangguan Xuanyi nodded: "Since you don't want these people now, whether these people live or die in the future has nothing to do with you. You must not use this matter to cause trouble!"

Although Shangguan Xuanyi didn't know why Xiaoer wanted to keep these people, he still listened to Xiaoer and decided to keep them.

After hearing this, the officials of Nangong Kingdom hurriedly nodded and bowed: "This is natural, Prince Rui, don't worry!"

The soldiers and officials of Nangong Kingdom all left.

This went surprisingly smoothly.

As a guest, the Minister of Honglu Temple could be regarded as a diplomat. He especially knew when to say what to say. After all the officials and soldiers of Nangong Kingdom left, he smiled and said to Shangguan Xuanyi: "Prince Rui is too powerful. I will not waste it." He was the first person in history to capture an island with just one soldier."

The Minister of Honglu Temple knew that Shangguan Xuanyi liked to flatter Shangguan Xuanyi. He didn't say anything. He just said to Zhao Youwei: "Assign soldiers to search everywhere to see if there is anything suspicious."

"Yes!" Zhao Youwei quickly bowed and retreated.

Xiaoer looked at the criminal kneeling on the ground and felt something was wrong, but she couldn't tell.

As for why you would keep them? That's because she has loyalty powder, so she's not afraid.
