Chapter 677: Coming to the door, unexpected (Part 1)
The guard just knelt on the ground and didn’t dare to speak before Xiao Tianyao open his mouth.
He was not a talker, without Xiao Tianyao’s permission, the guard simply didn’t dare to speak at this time.
Xiao Tianyao turned his head to look at him and coldly said: “Tell me, what’s the matter?” Although the people around him were not smart, they were not stupid.
“Answering back his highness, the eldest prince hurt his head. Doctor Zhu said that the eldest prince’s life is in danger, and his life and death are uncertain.” The guard’s voice trembled as he spoke. He lowered his head after speaking, not daring to look at Xiao Tianyao at all.
Xuanyuan Zhi’s identity was special. Their prince repeatedly told them that they must look after Xuanyuan Zhi and cannot let him die in the eastern country, but now?
They still let XuanyuanZhi have an accident!
“Injured his head? Under your hand?” Xiao Tianyao’s eyes widened in shock, but he quickly recovered his calmness. Seeing the soup stains on the corner of Lin Chujiu’s mouth, he calmly took the handkerchief that was put aside and wiped Lin Chujiu’s lips. Then wiped his hands clean, not caring that Lin Chujiu had used the handkerchief.
For a man with a cleanliness addiction, this was not easy.
“Answering back his highness, the eldest prince hurt his head by himself.” The guard hurriedly said, for fear that Xiao Tianyao wouldn’t believe his words.
“Mmm.” Xiao Tianyao replied, indicating that he knew about it.
As for how to deal with it? The guard waited for a long time but didn’t hear Xiao Tianyao’s order. He didn’t know what to do. He hesitated, but then asked in a low voice: “Wangye, the eldest prince…” What should he do about this? If the eldest prince died, they would be miserable.
They were not afraid of the eldest prince of the central empire, nor were they afraid of the thousand black-armored guards outside, but they were afraid of the central empire, and even more afraid of the tens of thousands of black-armored guards in the central empire.
If the central empire became unhappy and sent tens of thousands of black-armored guards to attack them, they could only wait for the eastern country to be destroyed.
“When he’s dead, tell benwang, now get out.” Xiao Tianyao’s face was cold and his tone was extremely cold, which frightened the guard and almost made him fall to the ground.
“Yes, yes, this subordinate will retire.” The guard held the bowl as if holding an imperial decree.
Xiao Tianyao didn’t even look at him, but when he turned his head he saw Lin Chujiu’s collar stained with soup. He couldn’t help but frown.
That stain was like a flaw on a white jade, which made Xiao Tianyao very uncomfortable. Without thinking, he took off Lin Chujiu’s clothes and put on clean clothes for her.
Seeing Lin Chujiu who didn’t respond no matter how much he tossed her, Xiao Tianyao blamed himself. He stroked her cheek and said in low voice: “Wake up soon, benwang will apologize to you.” As long as Lin Chujiu wakes up, he doesn’t mind apologizing to Lin Chujiu.
This was indeed his fault.
Soon, the second bowl of hot soup was delivered, Xiao Tianyao still took care of Lin Chujiu himself without any pretense. With his experience before, Xiao Tianyao did a very good job this time. At least there was not so much soup spilled, and Lin Chujiu’s clothes were not dirty.
After feeding Lin Chujiu the soup, Xiao Tianyao got up and prepared to go to the outside room to handle official business. However, he hasn’t sat down when a guard came in to report: “Wangye, there is a young master with the surname Shi outside asking to see his highness. He said that this subordinate only needs to say his surname, his highness will agree to see him.”
After the guard finished speaking, he bowed his head to hide the anxiety in his heart.
He knew that their prince didn’t have the heart to meet guests at this time, but the other party was dressed in extraordinary clothes and had a different aura. He didn’t dare to refuse, so he dared to come in and report.
