It is said that I was cannon fodder

Gu Jinyu knew that their marriage would not be so easy since King Jing'an woke up, but she didn't expect the accident to happen so quickly.

"It's not a good habit to spy on people taking a bath from behind."

The person hiding in the dark was surprised, he was very confident in his stealth ability, there was no reason why Princess Ninghua could find him, maybe she was cheating him, so he didn't move.

Of course, he didn't peep at the woman taking a shower out of boredom, but the timing was too coincidental, and he looked away after seeing the figure behind the screen.

The room was very quiet, except for the sound of water, the only sound was Gu Jinyu's breathing.

But he was very sure that someone had come in. Seeing that there was no answer, he was about to make a sound, but then thought that it would be inconvenient for him to do so, so he continued to act on his own.

After a burst of splashing water, there was the rustling sound of clothes rubbing against each other. If a man and a widow were living together in the same room, it might be a little ambiguous. Unfortunately, there is only a fake princess and a real man here, and a woman who just wants to get rid of her. Engagement wood.

"Your Excellency, can you come out now?" Gu Jinyu opened her lips and said in a firm tone, "You came here to find me, didn't you?"

Qi Ran's heart moved, and he couldn't help but look at the other person's expression. Then he found Princess Ninghua looking towards him, with a sly smile on his lips.

"caught you!"

This time, Qi Ran was sure that the other party had really discovered him, so he jumped off the beam and said softly, "I'm sorry, but please forgive Princess Ninghua for coming here uninvited."

Gu Jinyu glanced at him a few times, playing with taste: "Even if I don't want to forgive, I can't help you with King Jing'an."

A flash of surprise flashed in Qi Ran's eyes. Although he was curious about how Princess Ninghua discovered his identity, he refrained from asking. This was not the primary purpose of his coming here.

"I only like men, so I will report the truth to the emperor, and ask the emperor to accept his order."

"Oh, tell me now, what do you want? You should be very clear that I have no right to decide on this matter."

"I need the cooperation of the princess, as long as the princess expresses to the emperor that she has no intention of treating me after me. I know that this matter will damage the princess's reputation, so I can give the princess some compensation."

"compensate?"

"Yes, this can also be regarded as a deal between you and me. The princess didn't want to marry me at first, did she?"

Gu Jinyu didn't answer for a while, but approached him step by step, and Qi Ran frowned as if he was uncomfortable, and kept backing away under his approach.

"boom!"

A crisp sound immediately alarmed the people guarding the door, "Your Highness?"

"It's nothing, it's just that Ben Gong accidentally knocked a vase off."

Gu Jinyu raised her tone slightly, just in time for the people outside the door to hear.

Because he didn't ask anyone to come in to clean up, the people outside the door didn't ask any more questions. Everyone in Jingyang Palace knew that His Highness didn't like people to be close to him when he was bathing.

Qi Ran wanted to get out of the predicament while he was distracted, but just as he made a move, a sharp weapon held him back.

He froze, but soon relaxed again. When he heard the address of the person outside the door, he also changed his words: "What is your Highness trying to do?"

"Low your head, you are too tall, I don't like talking to you with your head up." Gu Jinyu's height is tall among women, but not very noticeable among men, at least Qi Ran is obviously a head taller than him.

The two stalemate for a while, then Gu Jinyu said softly: "Can't you meet this little request?" There was a little disappointment in the slightly trembling tone.

Qi Ran's heart trembled. He didn't sense the murderous intent from the other party, but he had a strange feeling. He heard the commanding tone, but it seemed to be acting coquettishly. He sensed the other party's loss. Also follow uncomfortable.

He felt that he was really crazy, but in the end he still lowered his head, and then something soft came up, his lips were bitten and sucked, and the naughty tongue took the opportunity to invade his territory, making him almost throw away his armor .

His heart suddenly throbbed, and a gleam of clarity flashed in his eyes, and then he pushed the young man away. The base of his ears was already red, and his breathing was slightly short of breath.

"You—" As soon as he uttered a word, he got stuck. For some reason, he was a little reluctant to use those dirty words to describe the person in front of him.

After a while, he finally choked out a sentence: "Don't mess with your relatives."

Gu Jinyu smiled softly, he glanced at the bulging mass under the man, and then moved his gaze to his embarrassed face——Qi Ran noticed where his eyes fell.

If Gu Jinyu hadn't pulled his sleeve at this moment, this man would probably run away from the window in embarrassment.

Gu Jinyu wanted to get closer, and said sweetly and softly; "I never mess with my relatives, I just couldn't help it tonight."

This statement is of course false, but when he wants to deceive people, almost no one can escape the weaving net.

It is also impossible for Gu Jinyu to let go of the prey who slams into the door. King Jing'an, who holds the military power, is one of his most important bargaining chips.

Thinking of this, he smiled sweeter. Under the warm yellow candlelight, his eyes seemed to be filled with stars, shining brightly, looking straight into Qi Ran's heart.

Qi Ran smelled the elegant fragrance wafting from the other party's body, and felt that his heartbeat was a little out of order, which was really strange. For a moment, he even wanted to agree to any request of Gu Jinyu.

In the end, his extraordinary willpower made him persist, and he pulled himself out of the lost vortex. He sideways opened the distance between the two, took a deep breath, and calmed his heartbeat.

"Today...today is not suitable for discussion, I will come to visit another day."

Gu Jinyu felt a little funny when he heard his words, but he was already satisfied with today's results, so he didn't stop him anymore and let Qi Ran leave.

He had a good night's sleep, but Qi Ran tossed and turned because of him. When he closed his eyes, he seemed to be able to see his smiling eyes, slightly moist hair and sweet lips. It was rare for him to suffer from insomnia.

The next day, Chu Li, who was actually in charge of treating him, was shocked when he saw his sluggish expression: "What's wrong with you? Didn't your actions go well last night?"

As Qi Ran's good friend, Chu Li is aware of his plan, knowing that he went to the palace last night to discuss with the princess, as far as he knows, the princess is not very willing to marry into Jing'an Palace, it is hard to see After Qi Ran woke up, that princess changed her mind again?

This is not impossible, after all, Qi Ran's face is really outstanding, enough to confuse the little girl, and more importantly, Qi Ran holds the military power, he remembers that Princess Ninghua has a compatriot brother, and he will definitely not let go to win over Qi Ran any chance of infection.

Chu Liwu was thinking wildly, Qi Ranjing mentioned this, and thought of the kiss last night, a blush appeared on his face strangely.

"Hey, even if it doesn't go well, don't make yourself angry." Chu Li didn't think about his abnormality in a romantic way for a while.

The main reason is that Qi Ran is too desolate, neither feminine nor masculine, and the only time he was misunderstood was when he fled to the palace in the middle of the night and lay on the floor next to Qi Ran, but was killed by the second prince the next day. See, there was a not-so-nice misunderstanding.

Seeing that his thinking was wrong, Qi Ran let out a sigh of relief, "It's okay, things are going well, but there are still some details to discuss, I'm afraid I have to go to the palace."

Chu Li wondered: "Then why do you look so haggard? Could it be that you have become a thief behind my back?"

Qi Ran's face was a little dark, "It's just the aftermath of the poison, and it's a bit difficult."

"Is there any residual poison?" Chu Li was startled. Although his personality was a little out of tune, he was still very serious about medical skills, and he felt his pulse immediately.

Qi Ran wasn't completely lying. When he was kissed by Princess Ninghua, the aftermath flared up. It wasn't serious. Although the pain was mild, it was enough to wake him up.

After seeing the doctor, Chu Li came to the same conclusion. There was not much poison left in his body, and after taking the medicine for a few more days, his body would be completely healed.

However, such a small amount of poison should not cause Qi Ran to sleep well. Chu Li felt that there must be something hidden, but this was the reason why Qi Ran was bitten to death. Seeing that he couldn't find out, he changed the subject.

"You deliberately pretended to be unconscious for so long, have you found out all the moths around you?"

"Well, we've caught everything that should be caught." Qi Ran's tone was relaxed, but there was a faint murderous look in his eyes.

"Then what should we do next? If you don't hand over your military power, the old emperor won't let you go. What's more, if you resist the order and refuse to marry, he will definitely seize this opportunity to punish you."

"I just defeated Jin Guo, and I was seriously injured because of it—at least on the surface, so he didn't dare to punish too much, or he would chill the hearts of his subjects. What's more, with military power in hand, although it is troublesome, But it is also my life-saving talisman."

"It won't work once, and there will be a second or third time. The life-saving talisman is not absolute. The old emperor dared not do it openly, but secretly made countless tricks. Didn't you almost lose your life this time? Let me tell you." , you marry that princess back, even if it's just a decoration, maybe the old emperor will feel more at ease with you."

Qi Ran frowned slightly, and said displeasedly: "I'm not going to use a woman to find a way out for myself. Besides, the emperor can't give up his purpose because of this."

Chu Li is also aware of this, he just mentioned it casually, but Qi Ran’s mood is a bit strange, he seems to be angry just now, Qi Ran is not a person who can’t take jokes, as expected, something happened last night that he didn’t know Bar.

But he also knew that if Qi Ran made up his mind not to speak, he would definitely not be able to ask anything from him, so how could he satisfy his curiosity?
