Shengjing Noble

Chapter 629: Drive Her Away

Su Lanyin leaned back in her chair with her arms folded across her chest: "So what do you say we should do?"

"Kick her away."

"and then?"

"And then...what do you want to do?"

"Didn't we agree to investigate them? How can we investigate if there is no evidence?"

"Then if we keep this spy, we will have evidence?"

"Of course, as long as she dares to take action, we will have the initiative, right?"

"But how do you prevent it? How do you keep all of us safe?"

Su Lanyin curled her lips: "Everything has risks. If you are so scared, you should go back to the Southern Xinjiang Palace as soon as possible. With your father protecting you, you will never experience any risks in your life."

"You...you are looking down on me!" Huo Jingxiao stood up angrily, put his hands on the table, and glared at her fiercely.

Looking at it this way, his handsome appearance really does look like an angry little lion.

"If you can't do it because of the risk, then can I understand that you shouldn't do anything risky? Is the prince coming out this time to travel?"

"of course not!"

"Then do you know that there will be more dangers on the way to the Northern Territory? If you can't even overcome this little difficulty, then I think you will give up before you reach the Northern Territory."

"I will not!"

"You can!"

"I won't!"

"If you can't, then aren't you shrinking back and afraid now?"

"I……"

Huo Jingxiao was speechless after being questioned and could only stare at her blankly.

"Then...what do you think we should do?"

"Since you are following me, you must abide by my rules. From now on, I have the final say on all plans."

"Then can you guarantee our safety?"

"I'm sorry, since we are partners, we should shoulder the difficulties together."

"You...why are you like this!" Huo Jingxiao was very dissatisfied.

Su Lanyin sneered, "Your Highness is the only son of the King of Southern Xinjiang. He has been pampered and arrogant since he was a child. I can understand that, but now we are all in this together. We share the dangers and difficulties. You can't just accept all the benefits and then cut off ties when you encounter some problems, right? I, Su Lanyin, don't want to make friends with people like that."

"But……"

"No buts. We stay here not for ourselves, but for those people who are being bullied. Have you forgotten the humiliation you suffered at the city gate that day?"

"Of course I haven't forgotten!"

"Xianglan is also a woman. You also said that her sister was controlled and she was threatened. Isn't this also a kind of humiliation? She is also a commoner. Even if she was forced to be a spy, we shouldn't put all the blame on her!"

Huo Jingxiao suddenly felt a little ashamed. He had never thought about these questions.

In the past when he was in southern Xinjiang, everyone revolved around him. His safety was more important than anything else. Even if all the guards died, he would remain unharmed.

This was the first time he heard the idea of ​​sharing danger together.

Why couldn't Su Lanyin protect him wholeheartedly?

He is the prince of Nanjiang, the only heir to the future palace. If he gets into an accident, what will his father do? What will the Nanjiang Palace do?

Su Lanyin knew what he was thinking at a glance. After all, Huo Jingxiao was young and had never experienced any setbacks. He was like a jadeite protected in the palm of a hand. If he was not careful, he would be scratched. He was fragile and delicate.

However, the King of Southern Xinjiang is a warrior who protects the safety of the people living in the border areas and guards the southern territory of Dasheng.

How can you be afraid of danger like this?

I dare not imagine what the situation in Southern Xinjiang will be like after the King of Southern Xinjiang dies and leaves the palace to Huo Jingxiao.

More than a decade ago, the southern barbarians repeatedly invaded southern Xinjiang and launched hundreds of wars of varying sizes.

Although the King of Southern Xinjiang is not a god of war, he is a hero who is not afraid of danger.

He had a clear mind and great talent. He commanded several battles very well and successfully defeated the southern barbarian tribes.

Nowadays, those barbarians in the south no longer dare to invade the people in southern Xinjiang.

But they will not give up and are just waiting for Nanjiang to die.

If that day really comes and Huo Jingxiao cannot face these things independently and protect the people, southern Xinjiang will fall into crisis again.

The King of Nanjiang doted on his son and could not bear to see him suffer setbacks and harm, so he acted like a child, unable to grow up, and even acted on his emotions.

Now, Su Lanyin wanted him to understand that if he wanted to live in this world and protect the things he cherished, he must endure danger and learn how to deal with it.

Thinking of this, she said, "Although Weicheng is the border between the north and the south, it is indeed under the jurisdiction of your father, and it is also the fiefdom you will take over in the future. As a prince, can you really just stand aside and watch these phenomena happen here?"

"Of course I can't!" Huo Jingxiao looked at her excitedly, "I just... don't know what to do... I... I'm scared..."

"What are you afraid of?"

"I'm afraid I can't handle it. I can't face those bad guys..."

He felt aggrieved like a child, with his head lowered and a sad look on his face.

Su Lanyin said earnestly, "Don't you think that your life will be short and you won't be able to learn how to deal with it?"

"I do not want!"

"Then just follow me, don't worry, I will ensure your safety."

This was also a reassurance from her.

Huo Jingxiao didn't know why, but he felt that the girl in front of him, who was only a few years older than him, gave him an inexplicable sense of security.

"Okay, I believe you."

"Very good, then go and apologize to Xianglan."

"Oh..." Huo Jingxiao nodded, then looked shocked, "What did you say?"

"I said, go and apologize to Xianglan!" Su Lanyin repeated again.

"Why?" He refused to accept. "I did nothing wrong!"

Why would the prince of Zhennan apologize like a spy?

"You did something wrong. You were disrespectful, and you almost ruined my plan and exposed the secret that we knew the truth." Su Lanyin looked at him seriously.

Huo Jingxiao didn't dare to look into her serious and sharp eyes, and lowered his head reluctantly.

"I do not want to go……"

"Then I won't play with you anymore. You can go back to Southern Xinjiang, or walk the rest of the way on your own. I've said before that since you're following me, you have to listen to me. I don't care what your identity is."

Seeing that she was so serious and there was no room for relaxation, Huo Jingxiao could only accept his fate.

"……Oh."

He stood up, walked out slowly, came to Xianglan and Song Huaizhi's door and knocked twice.

"Who?"

Song Huaizhi came out to open the door, and when she saw it was him, a look of displeasure flashed in her eyes.

"What's up?"

Huo Jingxiao said hesitantly: "I...I'm looking for Xianglan."

Seeing that he looked ashamed, Song Huaizhi turned around and pulled Xianglan out.

"She's here."

There were still tears in Xianglan's eyes as she looked at him timidly.

"Mr. Huo..."

Huo Jingxiao swallowed, lowered his head, and said something through gritted teeth with a cold face.

"sorry."
