Chapter 31
Xu Nuan looked at Yin Ruoyue in a daze, and asked in a daze: "It's still outside, how dare you?"
"They can't see it."
Yin Ruoyue said confidently, clasping Xu Nuan's hand tightly with her ten fingers, stroking Xu Nuan's hair that was blown by the breeze with the other hand, and said mischievously: "Even if someone sees it, it's not surprising that I am notorious, they will only think How dare a woman really fall in love with a woman, at most it's just a joke."
"Then it looks like you've played around with other girls a lot."
Although she never broke free from Yin Ruoyue's hand, Xu Nuan looked sideways at the fiery eyes, and couldn't help feeling a little headache.
Yin Ruoyue leaned closer and replied: "The other girls are not as easy to tease as the princess."
Immediately, Xu Nuan was angry and annoyed, and wanted to walk to one side, but Yin Ruoyue refused to let go, and instead pulled Xu Nuan to the banquet.
"It's rare for the princess to go out for a trip. The weather is just right, so it's good to go out and relax."
After sitting at the table, Xu Nuan felt that she was a living target, and Yin Ruoyue next to her specially asked someone to prepare tea.
Xu Nuan could only hold the tea and drink it calmly. Yin Ruoyue was in a good mood, she leaned close to drink with a smile, and said in a low voice: "If the princess feels bored, I will find a reason to take the princess around later. The provincial restraint is uncomfortable."
"If I were here, wouldn't I be annoyed at your chance to flirt with other girls?"
Xu Nuan didn't know what was wrong with him, she just focused on Yin Ruoyue saying that she was flirtatious.
Holding the wine glass, Yin Ruoyue looked at Xu Nuan in surprise, touched the wine glass to Xu Nuan's teacup lightly, and said with a smile, "The girls from other families are worried about others, but I don't allow others to think about it, princess."
"You are really unreasonable."
"Thank you princess for the compliment, Yue'er is really happy today."
Yin Ruoyue leaned her head sideways on purpose, and looked at Xu Nuan, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, her eyes were as clean as a different person.
Xu Nuan stared blankly, and the awkwardness just now was gone, she lowered her head and took a sip of tea, calming down and said: "The business is important, I won't joke with you."
"You heard that someone is going to assassinate you, aren't you nervous at all?"
"I brought guards with me, and the maid beside me is also skilled in martial arts, so the princess doesn't have to worry."
Seeing that Yin Ruoyue was calm and relaxed, and didn't seem to care much about it, Xu Nuan had no choice but to be vigilant.
The assassin didn't wait, instead, his body was very warm in the warm sun. Many young masters came to toast with wine glasses, and Yin Ruoyue almost took them all.
In the past, Xu Nuan seldom went out of the palace, so naturally he knew few people, but when Hua Mo came up, he suddenly said enthusiastically, "Why is Princess Yulu lucky enough to come here?"
Holding the tea, Xu Nuan didn't see anything on her face, but she felt very strange in her heart. Mo Zi, who was at the side, bowed, "I heard that the princess was seriously ill again a few days ago, and she is indeed much lighter now."
What kind of medicine did these two people buy in the gourd?
Just as Xu Nuan was scrutinizing her carefully, she was suddenly hugged tightly by Yin Ruoyue beside her, "Princess Yulu has been feeling unwell these days, and it's not suitable to talk too much just after recovering."
amount……
You haven't said this sentence yet?
Xu Nuan looked sideways at Yin Ruoyue, Yin Ruoyue held her palm tightly, but had no choice but to nod to cooperate.
Hua Mo shook the wine glass in his hand in a little embarrassment and said, "Then don't bother me."
Mo Zi on the side looked at Yin Ruoyue, but held a glass of wine and said to Xu Nuan:
"It's a beautiful day, I wonder if the princess would like to have a drink?"
Mo Zi is a thoughtful person, knowing that the atmosphere is not right, he is so calm, although Xu Nuan is surprised, he still holds the tea and drinks it cooperatively.
After a glass of wine, the two returned to the banquet, and Mo Zi was still looking at this side full of scrutiny, Xu Nuan said in a low voice: "You are so bold just now, could it be that Mo Zi saw it?"
Yin Ruoyue leaned slightly against the princess and said, "So what if you see it?"
"Maybe it's because of the princess that Mozi took a second look?"
Xu Nuan didn't understand, she put down her teacup and said, "What are you talking about?"
"I can't compare to you in attracting bees and butterflies. Look at how many young masters here want to post it."
Before she finished speaking, Yin Ruoyue stretched out her hand to pull Xu Nuan to get up, left the banquet, and walked along the path in the peach forest.
Xu Nuan looked at Yin Ruoyue in confusion and said, "What are you doing?"
"Leaving the meeting suddenly, what should you do if someone gossiping about you again?"
Yin Ruoyue looked sideways at Xu Nuan, and asked seriously, "I'm not afraid of gossip, is the princess afraid?"
"Of course I'm not afraid. Anyway, I'm not an official, and I seldom go out. These gossips have nothing to do with me."
"That's fine." Yin Ruoyue said with a gentle look on her brows, holding Xu Nuan's hand tightly in her palm, and said in a good mood:
"If one day I used a big red sedan chair to marry the princess, it would be great if the princess accepted me as sincerely as now."
Xu Nuan stopped suddenly, without blinking his eyes, his whole body was like a log, and he murmured: "What... are you talking nonsense."
You haven't even started dating yet, so why do you feel like you're going to talk about marriage all of a sudden?
wrong!
I haven't promised to be with her yet.
Xu Nuan turned her head very quickly, and said hesitantly: "Wait a minute, you said you want Dahonghuaqiao to marry me?"
"Of course." Yin Ruoyue held Xu Nuan's hand, and said affectionately: "If the princess says yes, I can even guarantee that as long as the royal children don't take the initiative to provoke them, I can let them live a good life."
Obviously, Xu Nuan was dumbfounded by Yin Ruoyue's sudden confession.
"That... I think it's too sudden, you are still young."
Yin Ruoyue's eyes darkened a lot, and she said anxiously: "Ordinary girls get married when they are fourteen or five years old. Now I am eighteen. Does the princess still think I am young?"
"The emperor can't wait to use the princess's marriage to win power, the princess wants me to wait, how can I wait?"
The originally warm spring breeze now made Xu Nuan feel much colder. Occasionally, she could even catch a glimpse of the girls enjoying the scenery with their companions. Their faces were still full of joy, but Yin Ruoyue, who was only eighteen, was frowned with sadness.
Xu Nuan shook her head and replied, "Yue'er, I'm not worth your waiting."
"I'm not in good health. I might die one day. You are the prime minister's daughter and a first-rank female official. Even if you really like women, you can find women who are much better than me."
If you promise Yin Ruoyue right now, you will gain nothing but no harm, but one day you will suddenly wear it back, what will Yin Ruoyue do?
I can't be so selfish.
Yin Ruoyue looked at Xu Nuan in disbelief, let go of her hand, took a few steps back, looked at Xu Nuan with eyes full of alienation and said, "Isn't it worth it?"
"How does the princess know it's not worth it?"
Xu Nuan stepped forward and responded: "The imperial court is chaotic. As long as I live, I will definitely be entangled by the advancing power. You don't need to be dragged into this power."
Yin Ruoyue didn't speak, but the corners of her eyes were slightly red, she stared at Xu Nuan, stretched out her hand to grab the sleeves of Xu Nuan's drooping sleeves, covered them tightly, and said: "It is necessary, sooner or later, those powerful and powerful will bow their heads to me. , no one can covet the princess."
"The princess may not believe it, but one day I will let the princess understand."
"I don't need a better woman, I just want the princess alone."
If he was not moved, Xu Nuan would not be so hesitant, and he could completely reject her like he did back then.
But Xu Nuan felt a headache because he couldn't tell the difference.
"There are assassins!"
Suddenly there was a lot of noise around, Xu Nuan turned his head to look, and saw many men in black rushing towards this direction.
Yin Ruoyue pulled Xu Nuan to escape, while the accompanying guards fought with the man in black. The peach blossoms that were in full bloom were unfortunately chopped off by the sword.
The two shuttled through the peach forest, when Xu Nuan looked sideways, he saw many guards fell to the ground, and the men in black were menacing, chasing after them.
"Yue'er, hide quickly, their target is you." Xu Nuan said out of breath.
Yin Ruoyue stopped, patted Xu Nuan's back, glanced at the men in black and said, "If I leave you behind, I'd rather be killed."
It was the first time that Xu Nuan heard Yin Ruoyue being so impulsive, and hurriedly dragged Yin Ruoyue to one side.
The trails in this Taoyuan are criss-crossed and complicated, and there are several men in black riding horses behind them, Yin Ruoyue suddenly pulls out the sword hidden in her waist, and stabs the man in black on the horse.
"Get on the horse!"
Xu Nuan was pulled onto the horse by Yin Ruoyue, staring blankly at the man in black who had fallen to the ground and was lifeless.
The man in black who was chasing after him rushed forward on horseback, and there was an archer hiding in it. Xu Nuan was shocked to see the arrows whizzing close to him, and his body was covered in cold sweat. Very cold.
"Princess, if it's okay this time, promise to be with Yue'er, okay?"
Xu Nuan looked sideways at Yin Ruoyue, not wanting that Yin Ruoyue's face was completely pale, and then she caught a glimpse of the arrow behind Yin Ruoyue's back.
The horse seemed to be frightened, Yin Ruoyue leaned straight against Xu Nuan, her breathing was very weak, seeing that Yin Ruoyue was about to fall asleep, Xu Nuan hurriedly took the rein from Yin Ruoyue's hand, and shouted loudly:
"If you die, Yin Ruoyue, I will marry Zhou Xia immediately."
Yin Ruoyue suddenly opened her eyes, looked at Xu Nuan sadly and said, "I'm not dead yet, the princess can't wait to get married?"
"The princess is really cruel."
"Then you are not allowed to sleep, otherwise when you wake up, maybe I will marry Zhou Xia." Xu Nuan was worried that Yin Ruoyue would fall asleep, so she was busy talking to distract Yin Ruoyue.
Yin Ruoyue leaned against Xu Nuan weakly, and said in a low voice: "Okay, then if I don't sleep, the princess will agree to marry me, okay?"
"no!"
"How can you get married if you haven't fallen in love yet?" Xu Nuan held the reins, feeling uncertain. After all, it was the first time he rode a horse and it was such a life-and-death crisis.
While thinking about how to escape, Xu Nuan said, "The trial period is three months. If I think you are suitable after three months, how about we continue?"
Yin Ruoyue rubbed Xu Nuan's cheek, and suddenly smiled and said: "Well, a gentleman can't follow what he says, and the princess shouldn't go back on what he says, Yue'er will be sad."
Such a sudden and perfectly normal reaction made Xu Nuan unavoidably suspicious, and the hand holding the rein was suddenly tightly held by Yin Ruoyue.
"Drive!" Yin Ruoyue whispered.
Only then did Xu Nuan come to his senses, and said angrily, "Yin Ruoyue, you big liar!"
Yin Ruoyue frowned as if feeling uncomfortable, leaned close to Xu Nuan, kissed Xu Nuan's cheek lightly and said softly: "I didn't lie to the princess, Yue'er was really shot by an arrow."
"Maybe the back is dripping with blood now, maybe it's bloody and bloody."
Seeing Yin Ruoyue's pale face, Xu Nuan felt distressed and angry, and after turning around, she couldn't help being angry at herself for suddenly believing Yin Ruoyue's nonsense.
This person said one thing after another, but he didn't have a single word of truth.
