The mind-reading sick prince led me and the system to go crazy

Hearing Lu Xiaoxin's voice, Xie Xi paused slightly, then took her hand and walked towards the gate of Zui Xiang Lou as if nothing had happened.

"Come on, let's go in."

"it is good."

Lu Xiaoxin responded absentmindedly.

Mu Qing drove the carriage around to the other side, entered through the side door of Zui Xiang Lou, and parked the carriage.

[Why is the Fourth Prince hooking up with the Princess of Yan again? He really doesn't do anything serious. He spends the whole day calculating this and that. It's disgusting! ]

[He came quite early. His appointment with the Princess of Yan was at 5 p.m., but it was only after 7 p.m. now...]

[No, no, the Fourth Prince has also invited the mighty general to come over! ]

Lu Xiaoxiao wondered in her heart what the Fourth Prince was up to. He always had to jump around in front of His Highness, which was really annoying.

Perhaps he had already seen clearly what kind of person his fourth brother was. When Xie Xi heard Lu Xiaoxiao say that his fourth brother wanted to collude with the Princess of Yan, his heart was not disturbed at all.

He had long given up on this brother.

If his fourth brother really wanted to plot against him, he would not just sit there and wait for death.

[The Fourth Prince has gone to the Tianzi Room on the third floor. How about I take His Highness there to listen as well? ]

[After His Majesty took back General Weiwu's military power, he had been staying in the General's Mansion. I didn't expect that General Weiwu would come out this time...]

"Your Highness, shall we go to the private room on the third floor?"

Lu Xiaoxiao made up her mind that they should also go up to the third floor to see if they could take the opportunity to eavesdrop on what the Fourth Prince was secretly planning.

Xie Xi, who knew Lu Xiaoxiao's plan, naturally would not refuse her request, "Okay, let's go to the third floor."

The private rooms on the third floor are more luxuriously and exquisitely decorated, and the room rate is twice as high as the guest rooms on the second floor.

"Sir, Madam, this way please."

The second brother in Zui Xiang Lou took Xie Xi and Lu Xiaoxiao to the third floor, and ended up stopping at the box next to the Tianzi room.

"???"

【What a coincidence! 】

Lu Xiaoxiao was a little confused.

She subconsciously raised her eyes to look at the Tianzi room next door, and could faintly hear some discussions inside.

The soundproofing here was not very good, but Lu Xiaoxiao could hear what seemed to be the Fourth Prince's voice.

Xie Xi also heard it.

It seems that my fourth brother is in there.

[God is really helping me. We are only separated from the Fourth Prince by a wall. After we enter the box, will we be able to hear the conversation between the Fourth Prince and the mighty general? ]

[It seems that Your Highness and I have pretty good luck? ]

Listening to Lu Xiaoxiao's mumbling, Xie Xi curled the corners of his lips almost imperceptibly.

Xie Xi walked into the private room holding Lu Xiaoxiao's hand. He coughed softly and told the waiter in a low voice, "Send some light side dishes over."

"Yes, please wait a moment, sir and madam."

The waiter left happily, closing the door when he went out.

There was a faint sound coming from next door. Neither Xie Xi nor Lu Xiaoxiao said anything. The room seemed quite quiet.

[I was originally planning to come to Zui Xiang Lou to listen to the girls singing songs, but I didn't expect to run into the Fourth Prince. When I thought of the Fourth Prince, this heartless bastard, I didn't even want to listen to the songs. ]

Xie Xi was sitting next to Lu Xiaoxiao. Seeing this, he sighed inaudibly and raised his hand to rub her head: "I thought you would stay in the lobby if you wanted to listen to the music, but I didn't expect you to think of coming to the third floor."

After all, most of the girls who sang the songs stayed in the center of the lobby to sing and dance.

When they just entered Zui Xiang Lou, Xie Xi noticed that many young men were staring with their eyes wide open, and none of them were willing to look away.

"It's too noisy downstairs."

Lu Xiaoxiao came back to her senses, thought for a moment and said, "I'd better stay on the third floor with His Highness."

[As long as Zui Xiang Lou is still there, I can go there anytime to listen to the music. But now that the Fourth Prince seems to be planning something bad again, of course the most important thing is to keep an eye on the Fourth Prince and protect His Highness! ]

Xie Xi just felt warm in his heart: "Okay."

[The Fourth Prince's voice was too soft. I couldn't hear what he was saying at all...]

Lu Xiaoxiao was not a martial artist and her hearing was very average. Even if she lay on the wall, she could not hear the conversation inside.

Xie Xi heard it clearly——

The fourth brother is instigating General Weiwu to come forward and discuss cooperation with the Princess of Yan. As long as the Princess of Yan can help him get the position of Emperor of Li, he will marry Zhang Baozhu as his queen when he ascends the throne in the future.

As for the State of Yan, as long as he can successfully ascend the throne, the State of Yan will be able to obtain one-fifth of the land of the State of Li, and this can be documented.

This is the sincerity of the Fourth Prince Xie Jin in wanting to cooperate with the Princess of Yan.

Before the fate was even decided, the Fourth Prince kept promising General Weiwu a happy ending. The cake was so big and round that General Weiwu was not afraid of choking to death on it.

The more he listened, the uglier Xie Xi's expression became. He frowned, feeling disgusted by what his fourth brother had done. His fourth brother even dared to say that after he ascended the throne, he would unconditionally give the land of Li to them.

"Your Highness, what's wrong?"

Seeing His Highness's gloomy face and seemingly unhappy look, Lu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but ask, "Your Highness, do you not want to stay on the third floor?"

[But I can't do that. I want to eavesdrop on what the Fourth Prince is planning to do so that I can take precautions. In case the Fourth Prince goes crazy, he might send assassins to sneak into the Crown Prince's Mansion to kill Your Highness!]

Thinking of this, before Xie Xi could speak, Lu Xiaoxiao quickly grabbed his sleeve. She raised her little face slightly, staring at Xie Xi with her sparkling almond eyes. Her voice was low and soft, and she deliberately leaned close to Xie Xi's ear to speak: "Your Highness, how about we have lunch in Zui Xiang Lou first?"

Xie Xi: “…”

It’s not that he didn’t want to stay on the third floor, it’s just that he was feeling a little depressed.

"What's so annoying about that?"

"???"

Xie Xi finally realized that he had accidentally said what he was thinking just now, saying that he was in a bad mood.

Only Lu Xiaoxiao would ask such a question.

Xie Xi: "Nothing, it's just that there are some things I haven't figured out yet."

"Okay, let's not talk about it for now. Xiaoxiao wants to have lunch at Zui Xiang Lou, so I will accompany you."

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Lu Xiaoxiao smiled with her eyes curved. During the days when she was recuperating from her injuries, she had been eating light meals every day. She was really getting tired of it, so she decided to come out and try some new food that could make her happy.

Seeing Lu Xiaoxiao so excited, Xie Xi couldn't help but chuckle and deliberately reminded her: "You are still injured now, so you have to eat the same thing you eat in Zui Xiang Lou."

Lu Xiaoxiao: “…”

Lu Xiaoxiao glared at him unhappily, and then she stood up suddenly and walked towards the wall pretending to be casual.

Xie Xi looked at her tenderly without restraining her.

Lu Xiaoxiao tried her best to ignore the Crown Prince's almost burning gaze. She gently moved closer to the wall, and the sounds she could hear became clearer.

At this moment, she heard the voice of the mighty general, and it seemed that he was talking about Zhang Baozhu?

[Oh my goodness, did I hear it wrong? General Weiwu wants to marry Zhang Baozhu to the Fourth Prince! ? ? ]

[Wait, isn't Zhang Baozhu your highness's concubine? ]

Lu Xiaoxiao couldn't figure it out for a moment. She tapped her head lightly, then quickly returned to the table. Without saying a word, she pulled Xie Xi closer to the wall again.

Lu Xiaoxiao lowered her voice and whispered in Xie Xi's ear: "Your Highness, listen to this."

Xie Xi was a martial artist, so his hearing was very good. The wall between them could not block anything, and he could hear clearly the conversation between General Weiwu and his fourth brother.

However, since Xiaoxiao insisted that he come over to listen, he would of course listen.

After listening, Xie Xi took Lu Xiaoxiao back to the table and said, "Zhang Baozhu has been ill for a long time and has not recovered. I am afraid that General Weiwu's plan will fail."

When Zhang Baozhu was mentioned, Lu Xiaoxiao thought of her pale and bloodless face. When she went to Mingzhu Courtyard to see Zhang Baozhu before, it seemed that Zhang Baozhu really wouldn't live long.

Lu Xiaoxiao just sighed and didn't say anything more.

Just then the waiter knocked on the door to deliver the meal.

Xie Xi got up and opened the door.

The waiter came in with the meals and placed them on the table. He moved quickly and served all three light dishes. "Enjoy your meal, both of you. I'll be leaving now."

"Ah."

Xie Xi nodded.

Looking at the three vegetarian dishes on the table, all of which were vegetarian and had no meat, Lu Xiaoxiao opened her mouth, but swallowed all the words in frustration.

[I want to eat meat! ! When can I eat some meat! ? ]

Xie Xi pretended not to notice Lu Xiaoxiao's hesitation. He pursed his lips and said with a smile, "Okay, eat."

Lu Xiaoxiao pursed her lips, indicating that she didn't want to pay attention to you.

Xie Xi raised his eyebrows slightly, with a gentle smile in his eyes, and coaxed her, "Okay, Xiaoxiao, don't be angry. When your injury is healed, you can eat what you want."

Lu Xiaoxiao ate a few bites reluctantly and stopped eating.

As soon as she put down her chopsticks, she heard some movement in the Tianzi room next door.

It seems like opening and closing the door?

Could it be that the Fourth Prince and the Mighty General have already reached an agreement?

Lu Xiaoxiao did not move. After Xie Xi finished his lunch, she spoke: "Did your Highness hear anything just now?"

Xie Xi looked at her questioningly.

"I just heard the voices of the Fourth Prince and the mighty general. Did Your Highness hear them?"

Lu Xiaoxiao stared at his reaction.

Xie Xi didn't intend to lie to her. He responded softly and then said, "I heard it."

"Then Your Highness... do you know what they are discussing?"

Lu Xiaoxiao is testing.

Xie Xi: "My fourth brother wants to cooperate with the Princess of Yan."

Lu Xiaoxiao:!!!

It turns out that His Highness can really hear it!

Lu Xiaoxiao calmed down and became curious: "Then how does Your Highness plan to defend himself?"

"We have to wait until Fourth Brother gets in touch with the Princess of Yan before making a decision."

Xie Xi said something that Lu Xiaoxiao could understand.

He knew in his heart that Lu Xiaoxiao was so uneasy because of him.

Lu Xiaoxiao: "That's fine."

After confirming that there was no movement in the Tianzi room next door, Xie Xi brought Lu Xiaoxiao down from the third floor to the lobby to listen to music.

Xie Xi curled his lips and chuckled: "It's rare for you to leave the house, I must make sure you get what you want."

Lu Xiaoxiao was a little touched, and did not refuse His Highness's kindness, "Then go and listen."

The two walked forward.

However, I didn't expect to see the Fourth Prince here as well.

Lu Xiaoxiao and Xie Xi looked at each other, then they quickly took a few steps back, away from the Fourth Prince.

In public, Lu Xiaoxiao didn't want to pay attention to the villain, the Fourth Prince, but she didn't see General Weiwu. Perhaps General Weiwu had already left Zui Xiang Lou.

【What a haunted person! 】

[I was wondering why there were suddenly more singing girls in Zui Xiang Lou. It turns out that this was all deliberately arranged by the Fourth Prince!]

When he got closer, Lu Xiaoxiao discovered that the system had unlocked the plot again.

It also unlocked the task——

[Ding! The progress of helping Crown Prince Xie Xi ascend the throne is 5. Now the side quest is triggered: The Fourth Prince wants to use the dancers to lure Crown Prince Xie Xi into the game at the birthday banquet of the Emperor of Li and ruin his reputation. Please try to stop the Fourth Prince's plan and protect Crown Prince Xie Xi.]

[Completing the task will earn you 100 points, and failing the task will deduct 100 points. ]

Lu Xiaoxiao: “…”

Sure enough, the Fourth Prince’s intention to harm Your Highness has never changed!

It seems that His Majesty’s birthday banquet will encounter twists and turns again this time.

Lu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but look at Xie Xi and sighed in her heart, [To protect His Highness, you still have to rely on me, Lu Xiaoxiao! ]

Xie Xi pursed his lips, a hint of coldness flashed across his eyes, and he paused nonchalantly at the Fourth Prince in front of him.

[I just don’t know what the Fourth Prince will do. ]

[If I'm not mistaken, the Fourth Prince will find a way to arrange for these singing girls to enter the palace. When the time comes, how will he set a trap to lure Your Highness into the game? ]

[Right now, it seems that His Highness doesn't have a good attitude towards those girls? ]

[But it’s okay. There is still half a month before His Majesty’s birthday banquet. I will make preparations and will never let the Fourth Prince get his wish!]

Xie Xi finally understood that his fourth brother wanted to attack him again.

Moreover, Fourth Brother is planning to cause trouble at Father’s birthday party?

As for the girls who were standing on the stage and singing, Xie Xi didn't even bother to look at them.

"Xiao Xiao, we've been out for long enough. Let's go back home first, okay?"

After learning that his fourth brother was going to deal with him again, Xie Xi felt annoyed and didn't want to stay here for long.

Lu Xiaoxiao came back to her senses and saw that His Highness looked a little cold and in a bad mood. She didn't know what His Highness was thinking about. She nodded and said, "Okay, Your Highness, let's go back then."

"Ah."

Xie Xi took her hand again and left Zui Xiang Lou.

Xie Jin, who had been aware of someone's gaze on him, suddenly turned around and took a closer look, and happened to see the backs of Xie Xi and Lu Xiaoxiao turning away.

Xie Jin recognized both of them.

His good second brother and the woman named Lu.

Xie Jin frowned, a hint of anger flashed in his eyes, and he murmured, "Why are they here too? When did they come?"

"Just now...did they see anything?"
