Chapter 43： (1/2)

Hearing Xiao Huan's words, Ye Shu's first reaction was, this person was not sent by Jinwang to test him, right?

It's no wonder that he is suspicious, although Jin Wang hasn't treated him that way again recently, but this person had done a lot of sorrows before, and Ye Shu had to proceed with caution.

Thinking of this, Ye Shu reconsidered the boy in front of him.

Due to the influence of physique, Kun Jun will have some weak temperament, but the boy in front of him is not like that. Xiao Huan was born in a family of martial arts and studied martial arts since he was a child. His features are delicate and heroic, coupled with the just and awe-inspiring expression, his integrity is beyond doubt.

If this is all pretend, then this person's acting skills may have reached the point of perfection.

But Ye Shu still didn't dare to believe it credulously. He considered it for a moment and said, ”It's probably inappropriate for Young Master Xiao to call your Majesty like this.”

”What's wrong?” Xiao Huan snorted coldly, ”If it weren't for my father's help, did he get him in the throne? He would have been good for promotion. Now that the throne is firmly seated, he began to clean up the old ministry. Ye Shu brother is not like that. Was he killed?”

Ye Shu's eyes flicked, and he heard what Xiao Huan meant: ”You mean... Ye Xiang died unjustly?”

”Could it?” When he mentioned the name, Xiao Huan was even more annoyed. ”Brother Ye Shu treated him so well, and he would never betray him. If the bird hides his bow and the rabbit dies, the dog emperor deserves to have today.”

Ye Shu became more confused as he listened, and asked, ”But the dog...cough, isn't your Majesty doing well right now?”

Xiao Huan looked at him with a look of sympathy and compassion.

”Don't worry, I'm not trying to lie to you.” Xiao Huan's voice softened and said seriously, ”I know that since Ye Shu's brother died, the dog emperor will find you who looks exactly like Ye Shu's brother and stay there. All kinds of torture around. He treats you like that, no wonder you are so afraid of him.”

Ye Shu: ”...”

Has his personality in the eyes of outsiders become like this? ? ?

Ye Shu pressed his eyebrows: ”Young Master Xiao, you seem to have misunderstood. Your Majesty treated me very well, and didn't...torture me.”

Xiao Huan fell silent.

He stared into Ye Shu's eyes for a long while, then sighed softly: ”He insulted you like that, you still speak for him, you are so kind.”

Ye Shu: ”...”

”You look so alike with Ye Shu, it's also a fate in the dark.” Xiao Huan took a step forward and said warmly, ”You go with me and go back to the fief in the south. The dog emperor wants to give my father some face. Even if he finds out your whereabouts, he will not dare to come and ask someone easily.”

”...No one will hurt you anymore.”

The boy's expression was sincere, and it was almost unbearable to refuse.

Leaving here was originally something Ye Shu couldn't ask for. He didn't belong here, staying with the tyrant, always worried about his life. If Xiao Huanneng came a few months earlier, Ye Shu would not hesitate.

But now...

He hid his hands in the fox fur and stroked his upper abdomen, and his eyes were slightly closed.

He... doesn't seem to want to leave as much as before.

”You still don't worry about me, are you?” Xiao Huan said, ”Well, let me give you a few days to think about it.”

”The end of the year is approaching. Ten days later, it is New Year’s Eve. Your Majesty will host a banquet in the palace to entertain the officials. At three quarters, I will wait under the tree in front of Chongde Gate. If the imperial concubine thinks it through, I will come. Find me.”

Xiao Huan persuaded: ”I have a good heart, and I hope the emperor will think about it. The dog emperor treats you as a substitute, not to mention that he treats you like this now, even if one day he treats you seriously, how can you be sure that he is for Are you still for the person in his heart?”

Ye Shu was startled.

The dark alley where the two were located was dimly lit, and even the moonlight was blocked by the high palace wall, so Xiao Huan didn't notice, Ye Shu's face suddenly became a little pale.

Xiao Huan leaned against the palace wall, his eyes darkened slightly: ”You don't know, I have been regretting these days. I had known today, I should insist on taking Ye Shu's brother to leave. Kyoto is a place where people can eat people without spitting out bones. I shouldn't let him stay with this dog emperor.”

”Anyway, you think about it.”

He patted Ye Shu on the shoulder, turned and walked into the dark alley, and soon disappeared.

Ye Shu returned to the bedroom alone.

The night became darker, and the lights in the empty hall gradually dimmed. Ye Shu lay on his back on the couch, dazed.

Xiao Huan's speaker had no intentions, but what he said before leaving always echoed in Ye Shu's mind.

——”Even if he treats you seriously one day, how can you determine if he is for you or for the person in his heart?”

Ye Shu had always understood that Jin Wang treated him well because of the original owner.

In order to survive, he even deliberately used Jin Wang's feelings for the original owner.

His life was at stake at that time and he couldn't allow him to think too much.

But now?

Now he is out of danger, but he is still taking advantage of this.

Some lies are easy to tell, but it is much more difficult than imagined to take them back.

This is what Jin Wang once said to him, and he is not the case.

Ye Shu turned over and buried his face in the pillow.

It's all because Jinwang treated him so well these days, so good that he almost forgot his identity, so good that he almost felt... Jin Wang's liking was what he said to him.

The palace lanterns were completely extinguished, and the moonlight replaced the candlelight, illuminating the hall more and more cold.

I don't know how long it has passed, and suddenly there is a soft creak from the window.

Ye Shu opened his eyes.

It was windy at night, and most of them forgot to close the windows.

Ye Shu is not accustomed to letting others take care of him. He never keeps anyone at night in the Yongshou Palace. These things are usually done by himself.

He sighed and slowly got up from the bed.

——Then I met a pair of bright eyes in the dark.

”!” Ye Shugang was about to exclaim and was immediately covered with force.

The visitor wrapped his waist with one hand, and pressed the other hand tightly on his lips, lowering his voice: ”Don't shout, it's me.”

With the moonlight, Ye Shu could see the face in front of him clearly.

Who else can Jinwang be?

Ye Shu: ”...”

Seeing Ye Shu calm down, Jin Wang let go of him.
