The leaves fall without parallel

The next day, Lin Ruoyue was extremely happy when she heard that Xiao Lingche invited her to the palace.

Her injuries have almost healed. Although her father did not allow her to go out, this time it was the prince who invited her. Even if her father knew that she ran away, he would not blame her.

"Zi Fu, quickly help me with my makeup"

"Okay miss"

"Hmm...which skirt should I wear?"

"Miss, you are naturally beautiful, you look good in anything you wear"

"Although I have been to the palace many times, this is the first time that Brother Che has invited me, so I need to dress formally."

After much searching, she finally settled on a satin dress with a pattern of golden butterflies embroidered in a cloud of flowers. She turned left and right, looking at herself in the mirror with satisfaction, hoping that Brother Che would like it.

Lin Ruoyue arrived at the palace and was told by the servants that the prince was waiting for her in the pavilion in the garden.

She couldn't wait to come to the garden

"Brother Che, Yue'er is here."

She moved as lightly as a butterfly among the flowers. Xiao Lingche didn't even glance at her, just drinking his tea.

Lin Ruoyue came to sit next to Xiao Lingche. She was very unhappy. She was on a date with Brother Che, but Qingshi was still standing there like a piece of wood, showing no sense at all. But he was Brother Che's confidant, so she couldn't tell him to leave.

"Brother Che, do you think the skirt I'm wearing today is pretty? I picked it out carefully..."

Xiao Lingche didn't even look at her, and she finally realized something was wrong.

"Brother Che, why don't you speak?"

At this time, he finally had some reaction

"You are the one who captured my maid?"

"What, Brother Che, what are you talking about? Yue'er doesn't understand."

Lin Ruoyue's face changed, then she regained her composure.

Xiao Lingche put down the teacup

"Whether it was you who did it or not, you know it best in your heart. Do you need me to explain it?"

"Brother Che, how could you be so wronged by Yue'er? Yue'er is also a victim. I was also kidnapped by them. If you hadn't come to save me, I'm afraid I would have... wuwuwu"

Lin Ruoyue started crying. Even though she had no tears, she wiped them with her handkerchief.

"Have you forgotten what you did before? I didn't want to doubt you, but your actions are getting more and more excessive. Are you still the kind Yue'er you used to be?"

"You knew about that incident before, but you didn't stop me, did you?"

Yes, he was also responsible for allowing her to act recklessly and making her mistakenly believe that he condoned her actions.

"What happened before has nothing to do with me, and I don't care. But now you've captured my people. If I don't intervene, will you be able to kill or beat anyone in this palace at will?"

"No, that's not the case, Brother Che. I just felt jealous because the maid was so close to you and you cared about her..."

"Where the hell is she?"

Xiao Lingche asked coldly

"I do not know"

Lin Ruoyue turned her head away and didn't dare to look at Xiao Lingche

"Your father probably doesn't know what you've done yet. If he knew, he'd be furious, or even kill you and your family..."

"No, please don't tell my father. I'll tell you, I bribed Hua Manlou's killer..."

"Hua Manlou?!"

Xiao Lingche and Qingshi were both shocked.

"I heard that if Hua Man Lou accepts an order, the person they attack will die. That Xi Yan..."

Qingshi didn't expect that the woman in front of him was so vicious. It turned out that beautiful women are all vicious. He had to stay away from her in the future.

"How dare you collude with the people of Hua Man Lou? This prince really underestimated you. I thought you were just willful and not a bad person. I always believed in you. I should have expected that you were the one who did it."

"Brother Che, you know, I do all this because I like you, and I don't want to see other women around you."

Lin Ruoyue excitedly pulled Xiao Lingche's arm, but was pushed away by Xiao Lingche.

"I have long told you that I only treat you as my sister. Why are you so stubborn and stubborn, even attacking people in the palace? You have really disappointed me. From now on, you are not allowed to enter the palace without my order. Don't bother me anymore."

Xiao Lingche stood up and left

"No, why? What's so good about that maid? Is she so important to you? How dare you treat me like this? Humph, she's dead anyway, you'll never see her again."

She pulled Xiao Lingche's sleeve to stop him from leaving. She was unwilling to lose to a maid.

"She is good in every way, and just based on her kindness, you will never be able to compare to her."

After saying this, Xiao Lingche pulled out his sleeves and left.

Lin Ruoyue stayed where she was and cried bitterly

"Kindler than me, hahahaha, who made me like this?"

Lin Ruoyue looked at Xiao Lingche's resolute back

"Do you hate me so much? Wuwuwu..."

No matter how loud she cried, no one dared to go up to her to comfort her. This rich young lady was not someone to be easily served. Her usual arrogance and domineering behavior were obvious to everyone, so everyone stayed away from her. After all, even the prince disliked her. She would go back on her own when she had cried enough.

"Qingshi, take the Dragon Scale Guards and follow me to Hua Man Lou. Remember not to make any noise."

Xiao Lingche mounted his horse while giving instructions to Qingshi.

"Yes, Your Majesty"

Hua Manlou is a gangster organization that even the imperial court is wary of because its killers are all well-trained and highly skilled in martial arts, and the owner of the building is even more mysterious and no one has ever seen him. This organization requires a large sum of money to hire, and they have never failed after accepting an order.

Despite this, it did not interfere with the imperial court and maintained an invisible balance.

Now he has to take action for Xiyan, he only hopes that Xiyan is still alive.

Huamanlou

After eating the fish, Ye Qingge patted her belly in satisfaction. She really liked the feeling of enjoying delicious food in nature, especially since she didn’t have to cook it herself.

"Owner, you can open a stall with your cooking skills."

"Setting up a stall? What does that mean?"

Men are curious

"Just setting up a stall and selling grilled fish, haha."

The OP is selling grilled fish on the street. I can’t even imagine the scene. Hahahahaha

“I only grill fish for people I care about.”

“Oh…oh.”

The man suddenly blurted out this sentence, and Ye Qingge immediately stopped her wandering thoughts. The air began to quiet down again. Ye Qingge could only smile to hide her embarrassment, and grabbed a handful of melon seeds to continue cracking them.

Only the sound of Yun'er eating meat remained

"Daddy, this fish is so delicious, Yun'er wants more."

“Okay, I’ll bake it for you.”

The OP thought Ye Qingge's flustered look was a bit cute, so he raised the corners of his mouth slightly and continued to grill the fish.

Looking at the man's profile, Ye Qingge thought that it was actually a good thing that he could get out of his sadness, but she really didn't have that kind of feeling for him. You will definitely meet someone better.

The man noticed Ye Qingge was staring at him, and turned to smile at her.

"Why are you so fascinated?"

"The host is so handsome, who wouldn't be confused after seeing him?"

Ye Qingge joked

"What about me? What about me?"

Yun'er rushed to ask

"Yun'er is as pretty as your father."

After hearing this, he continued to eat his grilled fish with satisfaction. Ye Qingge touched his head lovingly.

"Eat slowly, be careful not to get stuck"

The three of them chatted and laughed until afternoon had passed. After playing for half a day, everyone was very tired. They had wanted to stay here for the night before leaving, but Yun'er was very particular about her bed, so they gave up. Fortunately, this place was not far from Hua Man Lou, so they set off to return.
