513 Invitation (2)
âYou got me there.â Xie Jingxing stood up straight, and his eyes darkened. He said with a faint smile, âIâll just take it that you are still Shen Miao.â He seemed to be talking to himself, but at the same time, he seemed to be talking to Shen Miao. âItâs really difficult to find out all the secrets about you.â
âPrince Rui, why wonât you let me off?â Shen Miao looked at him. âWhether I have secrets or not, it has nothing to do with you.â
âUnfortunately, Iâm interested in your secrets.â Xie Jingxing said leisurely, âBesides, after thinking about it, you seem to be the only person I can trust in Ming Qi.â
Shen Miao smiled instead of being angry. âPrince Rui, donât you still have Su Mingfeng and Princess Rong Xin?â
!!
Xie Jingxing smiled. âLet the past stay in the past.â
For some reason, under the light, the smile on his lips looked a little lonely.
Xie Jingxing looked at her and continued, âHow do you plan to deal with Chang Zaiqing? If you beg me, I might help you.â
Shen Miao said expressionlessly, âI only hope that Prince Rui can stay out of my matters.â
âIt seems like youâve already thought of what to do.â Xie Jingxing raised his eyebrows. âImpressive.â
Shen Miao lowered her eyes and heard Xie Jingxing say, âThe princess of the State of Qin wonât let this matter rest.â
âYou donât have to remind me.â Shen Miao glared at him. âI have to thank Prince Rui for âhelpingâ me today.â
With Princess Ming Anâs jealous personality and the fact she seemed to be quite infatuated with Xie Jingxing, after Xie Jingxing was protective of Shen Miao, she would definitely vent her anger on Shen Miao.
âSheâs not your match.â Xie Jingxing reached out and rubbed Shen Miaoâs head. She shook his hand off.
She did not want to speak. Princess Ming An was not smart to begin with, so Shen Miao was not worried at all. The most difficult person to deal with was Huangfu Hao. In fact, Huangfu Hao and Princess Ming An came to Ming Qi this time to form an alliance with Ming Qi. Ming Qi was also interested in befriending the State of Qin.
No matter what, she could not let Fu Xiuyi and Huangfu Hao get together. It would naturally take a lot of effort to break the tacit alliance between the two countries. Shen Miaoâs gaze involuntarily landed on Xie Jingxing. She did not know what kind of role the Daliang Dynasty would play in this chess game.
In her previous life, she died too early, so she did not know what kind of accomplishment Xie Jingxing had made at the end of his life. It was clear that he did not die in battle, but instead, he escaped and returned to the Daliang Dynasty to be Prince Rui.
Xie Jingxing noticed her gaze and smiled. âWhat is on your mind now?â
Shen Miao looked at him steadily. âWhen does Prince Rui plan to return to the Daliang Dynasty?â
âYou donât want me to leave?â Xie Jingxing glanced at her with a smile and looked out of the window. âDonât worry, I wonât leave for the time being.â He said, âI also want to see the show between Huangfu Hao and Prince Ding to the end.â
Shen Miaoâs heart palpitated. Xie Jingxing said, âDonât you want to see it too?â
âI donât know what Prince Rui is talking about.â Shen Miao didnât mean what she said.
Xie Jingxing bent down and picked up the black cloak on the ground. The cloak was wet from the pond water and crumbled into a ball. His expression froze for a moment before he said casually, âShen Miao, you and I are the same kind of people.â
âYour Highness, youâre noble, and I am humble. We have nothing in common.â
âYouâre underestimating yourself.â The corners of the purple-robed young manâs lips curled up. âYouâre just like me, born to rule.â
