Chapter 261 The Glamorous Killer VS The Undefeated God of War Prince 4
Xuanyuan City was dressed in a dark brocade robe, and the rebuttal light and shadow fell on him through the gaps in the bamboo forest. Instead of the cold and solemn look of the past on the battlefield, it became even more so. Soft, walking in the bamboo forest, like a graceful noble prince.
He stopped in front of Yu Yao and nodded lightly: "Get up."
His voice was like a whale in the deep sea, deep and powerful, full of masculinity.
Yu Yao stood up and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Xuanyuan Cheng stared at her for a while, and a sentence suddenly escaped from his beautiful thin lips: "Why are you playing the pipa here?"
Yu Yao raised her eyes and looked at him carefully. Although she had seen this man twice before, times, but they were all seen from a distance, which was not realistic enough.
This will give you a closer look.
She found that this man was really good-looking. His long eyelashes were like talking fans, and his eyes were as deep as ink. When he stared at a person intently, he seemed to be able to suck him in.
He has a tall and graceful figure, his exposed skin is delicate and fair, his facial lines are smooth and handsome, and his aura of nobility is unparalleled.
Compared with seeing Emperor Xuanyuan Zan in the Jinluan Palace, he seemed to be even more noble.
Her eyes fell on the other person's hand, and she found that there was not even a thin callus on it, the joints were clear, slender and beautiful.
She really doubted that the man in front of her was really a battle-hardened God of War?
The wind and sun are blowing, and the border is full of yellow sand. It must be well maintained.
What does a grown man do to take care of himself so well?
The original owner was a killer, and because he had been handling weapons all year round, his hands were inevitably calloused.
It was only after she came here and took beauty and skin care elixirs that the thin calluses on her hands disappeared.
“Why are you looking at me like this?”
Xuanyuan City raised his eyebrows slightly when he saw her staring at him.
This girl is quite bold.
Few girls dared to stare at him so boldly.
"It's nothing, I just think that the prince is very good-looking, and he doesn't look like a man who has experienced battles at all."
Yu Yao lowered her head slightly and said with a blush.
"Haha..."
Xuanyuan City laughed twice and asked again: "You haven't answered my original question yet."
Yu Yao didn't know that this man would insist on this problem, and said with a somewhat unnatural expression: "I stayed in the palace for several days and could not see the prince. I felt uneasy and uneasy, so I wanted to play a song in the bamboo forest to calm my mind. I feel depressed.”
Xuanyuan City was unconvinced about this answer.
I think the girl is sincere.
He carefully looked at the woman in front of him. Her eyebrows were like crescent moons, her eyes were like autumn water, her skin was better than snow, and her temperament was extraordinary.
It’s not that he has never seen women from the Western Regions. Although most of the women from the Western Regions are exquisite and beautiful, they have never seen such beautiful skin like hers.
"Have you lived in the Central Plains before?"
He lifted up his robe, sat down on the bluestone bench in the bamboo forest, and looked at her to ask.
In addition to her appearance, which is unique to the Western Regions, the woman in front of her also looks like a Central Plains person in her behavior and the way she treats others.
Yu Yao's heart skipped a beat and she thought: Could this man have seen something?
She asked cautiously: "What does the prince mean by this?"
"It's not interesting, I just think you seem to have a good understanding of the cultural etiquette of the Central Plains."
Xuanyuan Cheng's thin lips raised a vague arc, and said again: "And your snow-white clothes I'm afraid it won't be able to survive in the harsh environment of the Western Regions."
He said it bluntly.
Yu Yao's face stiffened and she said: "My mother is from Yangzhou in the south of the Yangtze River. Maybe I inherited her mother."
She was not lying. The original owner's mother was indeed from Yangzhou. The man was just kidnapped to the Western Region by his father. The original owner died a few years after giving birth to him.
It wasn't that he was mistreated, but simply that he couldn't stand the harsh environment there, and that he had to leave his hometown and have no relatives, so he died of illness.
“That’s it.”
Xuanyuan Cheng knew clearly, thinking that her etiquette and Central Plains culture were also taught by her mother.
Although the Western Regions belong to other countries, it is not uncommon for the two countries to intermarry from time to time.
“Why were you sent to Jingguo again?”
After finishing her words, Xuanyuan Cheng stared at her closely, not missing the slightest expression on her face.
Although he was very fond of this woman, he was a little wary because of her status as a dancer from the Western Regions.
Let him not dare to get close.
Seeing him staring at her like this, Yu Yao couldn't help but become a little nervous.
She pursed her lips and said, "My parents have passed away long ago, and I have no relatives in the Western Regions. It doesn't matter to me where I am."
Her eyes fell on the bamboo forest, as if attracted by the beautiful scenery around her, her eyes showing longing.
"One more thing, I also want to see the prosperity of the Central Plains. If I have a chance, I would like to go to Yangzhou to see if there are any relatives on my mother's side there..." Xuanyuan Cheng's expression softened. The wariness in his eyes dissipated a lot.
“The Central Plains is indeed much more prosperous than the Western Regions.”
The man lowered his eyes and said in agreement.
His eyes touched the purse hanging on her waist, and suddenly he felt a strange feeling in his heart.
I can’t tell you what it feels like, I just feel that the woman in front of me is becoming more and more pleasing to my eyes.
"You stay well in the palace and tell the housekeeper if you need anything. If there is a chance, I will take you to Yangzhou to see it."
Xuanyuan City stood up and left a faint sentence Then he turned around and returned to the front yard.
Nan Feng saw the scene just now and saw his master leaving, so he followed him back to the front yard.
It wasn't until the two of them were out of sight that Yu Yao laughed out loud.
Xuanyuan City obviously believed what she said, otherwise he wouldn't have said that he wanted to take her to Yangzhou.
Although I believe it, I will definitely send someone to check it out later.
The Western Region Royal Court dared to send her here, and he would definitely not let him find out easily.
Yu Yao did not stay in the bamboo forest and left with her pipa in her arms.
Just as he was about to return to Fangfeiyuan, he met Wu Lingyan halfway, followed by a little maid.
I don’t know if it’s a coincidence, or if the other party waited here on purpose.
As soon as Wu Lingyan saw her, her face turned stinker than a rotten egg, and she started taunting her.
"Hey, isn't this our dancing girl from the Western Regions? She has only been in the palace for a few days, and she can't sit still? Why, are you using your lowly status to flatter the prince again?"
Wu Lingyan walked over with strong jealousy in her eyes and said sarcastically.
Yu Yao looked at her with a sneer and spoke unceremoniously: "We enter the palace to serve the prince. If we don't flatter him, are we like some people who treat him like a mascot? After entering the palace for more than half a year, we still still... A young girl, if she continues like this, she is destined to die alone."
As soon as she finished speaking, there were several chuckles from the nearby garden.
Obviously someone is hiding nearby, or just passing by.
Wu Lingyan was a noblewoman from the capital. She was fortunate enough to be chosen by the Queen Mother, and was then sent to the palace.
Unexpectedly, after entering the palace, she could not even see the prince's face. It was not that she had not seduced him before.
It’s just that all the methods I’ve tried are of no use.
Yu Yao's words pierced Wu Lingyan's heart like a sharp knife, and she heard the chuckle coming from nearby, making her feel ashamed and angry.
“Bitch, you are looking for death.”
Wu Lingyan rushed over angrily, raising her hand to slap the other person.
Yu Yao quickly grabbed her wrist and threw Wu Lingyan to the ground with a flick.
"Bitch, you are so presumptuous..."
Wu Lingyan grimaced in pain and became even more angry.
She struggled to stand up, but when she touched Yu Yao's cold and captivating eyes, her whole body froze.
Those eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, which made Wu Lingyan unable to help but feel fear.
But this fearful thought lasted only a moment.
She felt that she was so stunned that she was actually frightened by the other person's eyes.
Wu Lingyan struggled to get up. She pointed at Yu Yao's nose and cursed: "I'm going to tell the prince and let him see the true face of you bitch."
Yu Yao but She didn't take it seriously, gently brushed off the dust on her sleeves, and said calmly: "If you really have the ability, go ahead."
She didn't care how ugly Wu Lingyan's face was, holding Pipa in her arms Gone.
At this time, there were several women from the palace in the garden who saw this confrontation in their eyes.
These women were rewarded by the emperor and the queen mother and entered the palace.
It’s just that Xuanyuan City has not touched any of them and is just raising them in the backyard.
Yu Yao's sarcastic words about Wu Lingyan also made them feel very uncomfortable.
Because they, like Wu Lingyan, are still young girls.
“Hmph, this dancer from the Western Region is too arrogant. See how arrogant she can be for a few days, I’m afraid she will be like us before long.”
"That is, Your Majesty doesn't value matters between men and women. He doesn't even come to our courtyard. Let alone this woman is from the Western Regions, His Majesty will not even go to her courtyard."
Several women were angry. They were discussing unjustly, and there was quite a feeling of sharing the same hatred and hatred.
Yu Yao didn't know that her mocking of Wu Lingyan offended all the women in the backyard.
