Chapter 77 Isn’t country more important than beauty? (34)
The sun returns to the mountains, leaving behind wisps of afterglow that dye the flowing clouds dim.
The candlelight flickered in the room, and the man turned over the book in his hand and pretended to ask casually,
"How's the backyard going?"
Wu He, the personal guard, replied with a smile on his face, "Back to my master, Miss Qiao has been observing the new beauties entering the house recently."
"I didn't ask her." Qi Anze retorted innocently.
"Oh, all the beauties are waiting for the master's arrival."
The man closed the book irritably, leaned back on the chair, and stroked his forehead. After a while, he said in a muffled voice, "Is she unhappy or something else..."
‘Dong dong dong,’
"Master, are you asleep?"
Hearing the girl's voice, the corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously, his chin raised slightly, and Wu He immediately became invisible.
"Host, I think some of the beauties who have entered the house recently are a bit suspicious."
Qiao Xi opened the door and saw that there was no one else, so he sat down on the chair and said seriously.
After all, there is a girl named Lian Yue on the facade.
But she couldn't point it out directly, so she could only remind her tactfully.
The man raised his eyebrows and looked at her with a slight smile, "Only a few are suspicious? Not all of them?"
The girl shook her head and handed him a few pages, "Only these three are suspicious, the others are fine."
Looking at the crooked words, Qi Anze said casually,
"Your handwriting is too ugly, come here."
"The point is not the font, but the content." Qiao Xi roared in his heart, but couldn't speak out.
He walked up to him obediently.
Qi Anze stood up and spread the paper on the table, raised his hand and pointed, "What are you doing standing there, grinding."
"oh."
Qiao Xi thought he was going to write some instructions, so he immediately stepped forward diligently.
After a moment, she looked at the brush in her hand with a look of despair on her face.
In order to hide her clumsiness, she deliberately wrote crookedly, but unexpectedly it was self-defeating and increased her workload.
But she couldn't write it right away, so she had to continue pretending.
As the man approached, Qiao Xi subconsciously wanted to avoid it, but the man took her into his arms from behind, held her hand, and wrote on the paper.
The warm breath in her ears made her feel dazed for a moment, and then she immediately recited silently,
"I am a rabbit who wants to become an immortal. I cannot have secular thoughts. Immortals cannot have emotions and desires. My salty life is waving to me."
"It'll look better if you write it this way." The man's voice sounded bewitchingly in her ears.
Qiao Xi looked at the two big characters 'Qiao Xi' on the paper, bowed silently and slipped away from his arms.
"Host, I will go back and practice my calligraphy. Please pay more attention to those three beauties."
Qi Anze looked at his empty arms and suddenly felt a little disappointed. He put down his pen expressionlessly and said,
"Since the little secret guard has doubts about them, why don't we go check it out now?"
Qiao Xi looked at the already dark sky. After hesitating for a moment, he nodded, "Everyone should be ready to go to sleep at this time. If we make a surprise attack, we will definitely find out."
She had no way of determining when that thing was placed in Qi Anze's master bedroom.
However, you can search their houses in advance, so as to avoid wasting time and strive to allow the host to win the throne next year.
Qi Anze sneered and ordered,
"Then you go and inform me. I will be here shortly."
Qiao Xi: "..." Notice? Isn't this just a warning?
Seeing the confusion on her face, Qi Anze was in a good mood and teased, "If you don't want me,"
Before the man finished speaking, he was interrupted by Qiao Xi, "This time is okay, but... can it be done in secret?"
Qi Anze's face turned dark, and he deliberately angered her, "No matter which beauty's house you go to, it must be recorded in the book."
Qiao Xi: "..." It seems that we can only act according to circumstances.
A group of people came to Beauty Garden in a mighty manner and looked at the beauties who had been notified and were waiting at the door early.
Qiao Xi quietly pointed to the woman wearing a pink dress on the left, indicating to the man to choose her.
Qi Anze raised his eyes and glanced at the person she was pointing at.
Yangliu has a slim waist, lightly painted with pink and white, and her eyes look at him timidly.
To be honest, if this person hadn't been sent by the Third Emperor's brother, he would really have thought that she was a delicate little beauty.
But according to the information sent back by the informant, this woman is not simple.
The man waved his hand and walked into Lian Yue's house amidst the heartbroken gazes of the other beauties.
"The slave family Lian Yue pays homage to His Highness the Crown Prince. May His Highness be blessed and safe."
"...Get up." After a while, the man spoke.
He didn't focus on her, but kept looking at the decorations in the room, "Are you getting used to living here?"
"I'm used to it."
Lian Yue poured a cup of tea and handed it to the man's hand.
His eyebrows were lowered, giving him a weak and kind look.
When Qiao Xi saw this scene, he shook his body unconsciously.
So seductive.
She originally wanted to search the house while the two of them went to bed.
According to the rules, the newly arrived beauty cannot leave the house. If you can find the cursed object tonight, you can take them down together to avoid causing trouble later.
But seeing the two of them spending time together, almost finished chatting about poetry and songs, and there was still no movement, Qiao Xi became a little impatient and yawned unconsciously.
"Go and bring Xingchen and Bai Ke over." Qi Anze ordered deliberately as he saw that the girl was still indifferent to the current situation.
Josie: "?"
In the original text, he was not very flirtatious with women, so why did he change his personality? She looked the man up and down with a confused look on her face, and shook her head imperceptibly.
Miss Lian Yue, who had been waiting next to her, had no other expression and looked resigned.
Qi Anze originally thought that the girl's expression of reluctance would eventually say a few words of humiliation.
You know, but after a moment, she put on a righteous expression and said seriously, "Your Highness, although beauty is good, you can't be greedy for too much. Your health is important."
"Ahem, cough, cough," the man choked at her words and spilled the tea all over the table, "Who taught you these words, Wu He, let people go and receive the punishment on their own."
Josie knew he was talking to the Batman in the corner, but he still couldn't help but argue,
"This is not what anyone in the government said, it's what I read in a book. Don't lose your temper casually. It's not good for your health."
Lian Yue calmly observed the interaction between the two and spoke out to help,
"Miss Qiao, where are you thinking? It was the slave family who just proposed to play mahjong, so His Highness called them over."
Playing mahjong? Why didn't I hear this? Could it be that I was distracted just now?
Qiao Xi glanced at the man suspiciously, "Okay, I'll call them over right now."
"Okay, I have no time to think about it. Let's talk about it another day."
Seeing him about to leave, Qiao Xi subconsciously stopped him.
She hasn't checked yet.
