Chapter 179 The Romantic Concubine and the Emperor 05
Xiao Yi knew that Chu Fengyan didn't dare to lie to him.
When he heard Chu Fengyan describe what the petite-looking woman had done, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
He really didn't expect that this seemingly weak woman could be so tough.
Not only did he steal Chu Fengyan's lantern, he also threw it on his head, almost burning his hair.
Xiao Yi's lips curled up slightly, revealing a smile of interest. "Haha, quite interesting."
After some careful thought, Xiao Yi dismissed the idea that Yan Jiu was a woman sent by someone to deliberately attract his attention.
No one would send such a flawed woman to approach him.
It is even more impossible to send a married woman to seduce him.
But she smells so good and feels so soft when I hold her.
It would be better if that old guy, General Weiyuan, could be more sensible and take the initiative to send the person to the palace.
How should I remind him?
This was the first time Xiao Yi was interested in a woman, and also the first time he wanted to ask a woman from a minister.
Although it was just a matter of opening his mouth, he didn't want to appear too eager and make a fool of himself.
Yan Jiu was keenly aware that Xiao Yi's eyes on her were not normal. She secretly thought that something was wrong.
"Damn, I'm now General Weiyuan's nineteenth concubine. If you dare to have any thoughts about me, don't blame me for being rude to you." Although Yan Jiu thought so in her heart, she acted terrified on the surface.
He was so scared that he was trembling, hiding in Xiaolu's arms and pretending to cry.
"I don't know what you're talking about. As someone from the General's Mansion, any piece of jewelry I take out is worth more than that lantern. How could I possibly steal a lantern worth only a few copper coins?"
Yan Jiu's voice trembled, as if he had suffered great injustice. "You've been following me from behind the whole time. I only threw the lantern at you to protect myself. If you hadn't followed me, how could I have hit you with the lantern? In the end, it's because you're not a good person."
Chu Fengyan walked over and looked down at the woman's watery eyes, his heart skipping a beat. But he quickly calmed down and spoke calmly.
"Hmph, stop pretending. I was fooled by your weak appearance just now. I thought you were a good person. I didn't expect you to be not only a thief but also a liar. You even dared to lie to my cousin and said I was a scoundrel. Is there any scoundrel as handsome as me?"
Yan Jiu wiped away the non-existent tears.
She glanced at Xiao Yi shyly.
"You're not good-looking at all. Your cousin is the real good-looking one..."
Chu Fengyan felt very aggrieved, but he didn't dare to refute this statement. Xiao Yi was not only his cousin, but also the current emperor. Even if Xiao Yi was uglier than him, he didn't dare to refute it.
But in fact, Xiao Yi's appearance is far different from that of his distant cousin.
The underground must be referring to Chu Fengyan.
He didn't dare to argue with Yan Jiu about who was better looking.
I just want to prove my innocence in front of my cousin.
"We can confront the lantern owner right now and ask him if you stole my lantern and ran away. I paid for it before I came after you."
Xiaolu was shaking even more violently than Yan Jiu, but Yan Jiu was just pretending, he was really scared.
If Yan Jiu hadn't been lying in her arms, she would probably be lying on the ground in fear.
She would recognize Xiao Yi's face, which was more handsome than that of an immortal, even if it turned into ashes.
I didn't expect to see my master's mistress, the biological father of the child in Yan Jiu's belly, here.
Xiaolu was very uneasy, fearing that Yan Jiu would be tempted by her beauty and get carried away and recognize his mistress.
There are guards from the general's mansion nearby. If this gets out of hand, her good days will be over.
Xiaolu hugged Yan Jiu tightly and used her body to block Yan Jiu. Xiao Yi had been staring at his master since just now, and it was obvious that he had bad intentions.
Bah, these two cousins are so shameless.
If Xiao Yi hadn't been accompanied by many guards who looked tough, she would have called all the guards from the general's mansion over and given these two pervert cousins a good beating.
Xiaolu mustered up the courage to say, "My two lords, we are indeed from the General's Mansion. If you don't believe us, you can escort us back to the General's Mansion. We can resolve any misunderstandings face to face."
"My mistress is pregnant and cannot be frightened. Although you two appear to be from high-class families, if you truly harm our mistress and the child, I'm afraid our general will not let it go."
Xiao Yi's expression turned extremely gloomy. He stared at Yan Jiu intently and asked in a low voice, "Are you pregnant?"
Yan Jiu was shocked and shuddered when he saw Xiao Yi's murderous eyes.
Does this bastard want to kill her, or does he want to kill the baby in her belly?
Yan Jiu clutched her stomach tightly, her body involuntarily shrinking into Xiao Lu's arms, and she replied tremblingly, "Yes... yes."
Xiao Yi took a deep breath, trying to calm the surging emotions in his heart, then slowly stretched out a hand and said to Yan Jiu: "Get up, the ground is cold."
