The soft-waisted princess was pinched and pampered by the ascetic prince after her rebirth

Chapter 394 Why is Xiao Chenyan’s face so big?

"Are you really a couple?" Hu Bantou looked suspicious.

Shen Ruzhou nodded firmly, "This kind of thing is related to a woman's reputation. How dare I joke about it."

"Last night, we really got into trouble on the street because of some trivial matters at home. We didn't understand the rules and caused you trouble. I'm really sorry." Shen Ruzhou apologized politely.

Bantou Hu saw that her face was sincere and did not look like she had made up a lie to deceive him, so he became suspicious. "Since we are a family, let's not care about it this time. I will let him go. You go back and live a good life, and don't mess around again." After saying that, he called his men to get the keys and let him go.

Soon, the yamen servant came out alone.

It turned out that Xiao Chenyan refused to leave, and Shen Ruzhou suddenly felt a big headache.

It's really easier to ask God than to send God away.

She helplessly held her forehead and wanted to leave, but based on her understanding of Xiao Chenyan, Xiao Chenyan's unwillingness to leave at this time must be because he did not want to give up. Bantou Hu and the others would definitely suffer disaster because of this. She did not want to implicate innocent people. In the end, I had no choice but to go to the prison to persuade him.

It was dark in the prison. Shen Ruzhou held the oil lamp and did not dare to confirm that it was Xiao Chenyan until he saw the facial features of the person in front of him clearly.

At this time, Xiao Chenyan was still sitting in the corner tied up with ropes. His hair was messy, his clothes were in tatters, and there were several scars on his face and body, which were obviously caused by the fight with the patrolling soldiers last night.

Shen Ruzhou had never seen Xiao Chenyan looking so embarrassed, and he felt secretly happy, with the corners of his mouth rising slightly.

If she didn't want Bantou Hu and others to be innocently implicated, she would have really wanted Xiao Chenyan to be locked up like this and suffer more.

"Your Majesty, the people at the Kyoto Yamen misunderstood last night. Let me apologize to you. We adults have a lot of people, so we should go back quickly. It will be dawn soon. It is shameful for others to see you like this."

She hung the oil lamp on the wall, stepped forward, endured the disgust in her heart, and untied the rope for Xiao Chenyan.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Chenyan turned around and avoided it, and said angrily: "I won't leave until I say so. I just want to show the prefect of the Kyoto Yamen to see how many heads he has enough to compensate. "

As expected, Shen Ruzhou sneered in his heart, Xiao Chenyan really did not disappoint her. .

"My lord, it's just a misunderstanding. It's really out of character for you to be so petty."

Shen Ruzhou continued to untie the rope without any explanation.This time Xiao Chenyan did not dodge again, but still said harsh words, "Misunderstanding? Such humiliation of the king, how can it be settled with just a misunderstanding? There is no such thing as cheap in the world."

"The squad leader last night and everyone who took action against me will die." Shen Ruzhou listened to his words and felt even more disgusted when looking at Xiao Chenyan in front of him, but he still suppressed the nausea in his heart.

He deliberately increased the force on his hand and pulled the rope hard, causing Xiao Chenyan to scream in pain.

Shen Ruzhou pretended to be innocent and said: "This rope is difficult to untie, please bear with me, Your Majesty."

After being tied up all night, Xiao Chenyan's hands and feet were already numb. When Shen Ruyi untied the rope, he quickly moved his stiff body.

"My lord, let's forget it. It's not a glorious thing in the first place. If you have to make it known to everyone, it won't look good on your face." Here, Shen Ruzhou was still trying to persuade him.

"This matter will not be spread, and everyone who knows about it will die." Xiao Chenyan's eyes were filled with murderous intent, and he obviously did not intend to let anyone go.

Shen Ruzhou was speechless. He endured it again and again, and had no choice but to continue to persuade: "My lord, I don't know. The prefect of the Kyoto Yamen, Xu Yuandao, was dismissed by the regent due to his ineffective treatment of the plague. Now the new prefect was personally selected by the regent." Many officials have a clear reputation, are not afraid of power, and are upright. If the prince does not leave now and waits for him to come, he will be interrogated in court. If he is punished according to the law again, even if the prince tries to retaliate in the future, his face will not be the same. It’s all been lost long ago.”

"He dares?" Xiao Chenyan was still indifferent. He didn't believe that anyone would dare to interrogate him or beat him up.

"Your Majesty, you and I have reconciled. You dragged me back to the house by force on the street. You were robbing a civilian girl. When you were caught by the patrolling soldiers, you were found guilty. The prefect followed the law of our court. The punishment in court is also reasonable, even if it is brought before the emperor, you are at fault."

Shen Ruzhou had a firm face and his analysis was clear and logical.Seeing that Xiao Chenyan's expression was a little relaxed and hesitant in his eyes, she continued: "Your Majesty, it's better to leave quickly before Magistrate Fang comes."

Xiao Chenyan saw that Shen Ruzhou was so concerned about him, and suddenly said: "Shen Ruzhou, you are worried about me, I can see it."

Shen Ruzhou looked at Xiao Chenyan speechlessly, and really couldn't figure out how this man could tell.He had no choice but to say: "My lord, you'd better return home quickly and don't think too much about it."

Xiao Chenyan was still moved by himself, and then said: "If you want to be angry with me and don't want to admit it, I won't force it. I just know it myself. I will give you face, so go back now."

Whether you love to leave or not, it would be better to die in prison.If it wasn't for the sake of not disturbing others, she would have left long ago.

"Your Majesty, those government officials didn't mean to offend, so don't pursue it." In order to ensure that Xiao Chenyan would not cause trouble to Team Leader Hu and the others again, Shen Ruzhou had no choice but to continue speaking.

It seems that she just doesn't want to say a soft word to this king. Although she usually makes nonsense and cold words to herself, at the critical moment, she still knows to think about herself.

Thinking of this, Xiao Chenyan directly agreed to Shen Ruzhou's request. "Since you personally asked the officials to plead for mercy, I don't have to pursue it, but you have to agree to one condition."

Take measures!
