Part 1 - Yu Nu Jiao / Jade Slave / Enslaved By Love

Chapter 166 I Still have to Listen to Xie Yun

As soon as he finished speaking, Yin Ji regretted it.

He clearly wanted the best for Xie Yun and wanted to ease the relationship between them, but how could it end up like this?

He fled Xie Yun's tent in a panic and stood outside, not knowing what to do.

Xie Yun should not want to see him anymore in the future...

He was a little exhausted and found a secluded corner to nestle, not moving or talking, as if he had turned into a quail.

Zhong Bai walked back and forth three or four times before he saw him, but then he was stunned. This was the second time he saw Yin Ji like this. The last time was when the first lady passed away, but the Xiao family refused to hold a funeral on the grounds that unmarried women could not be buried. They only buried a thin coffin in the back mountain hastily, not to mention the Xiao family's ancestral tomb, and even the grave was not left.

At that time, Yin Ji sat facing the tombstone like this for a long time without moving.

His heart ached, and he moved closer cautiously: "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

Yin Ji smiled bitterly: "I said the wrong thing again."

He refused to speak about what he said wrong, and Zhong Bai did not dare to ask, so he could only reluctantly comfort him: "Everything will be fine."

Yin Ji was obviously not comforted, he remained silent, and it took a long time for him to cheer up: "What do you want to talk to me about?"

Zhong Bai did not want to disturb him at this time, but the matter was of great importance, so he hesitated for a moment and still spoke: "Xiao Chi said he wanted to see you, he said he had something you were very interested in, if you are willing to let Concubine Yue go, he will give it to you."

Yin Ji narrowed his eyes, and the man who was as wilted as an eggplant just now, with just a change of expression, his momentum became sharp: "He dares to negotiate conditions with me?"

"The minister said so, but he wrote this word to the minister."

He wanted to grab Yin Ji's hand, but Yin Ji waved it away with disdain: "It can be written."

Zhong Bai was not annoyed, and obediently wrote a word on the ground. He had been uneducated since childhood, and only read a few books after entering the court. At this time, he racked his brains for a long time and still wrote the wrong word.

But Yin Ji still recognized it. It was the word "Xie".

Yin Ji's face sank. What did Xiao Chi have in his hand?

He and the Xie family were mortal enemies. He didn't care about the life and death of the Xie family, but Xie Yun did. He couldn't allow Xie Yun to be implicated by the Xie family again.

"Bring him to see me first."

"Yes."

Zhong Bai stood up and was about to leave, but turned back after two steps: "Your Majesty, shall we meet here?"

Yin Ji sighed with disgust. How could he meet Xiao Chi here?

He stood up and patted the grass leaves on his body. Suddenly, Zhong Bai called out: "Why are you bleeding again? Your Majesty, who treated your wound? Is it okay?"

Yin Ji waved his hand: "Don't talk too much, go and tell someone, I'm waiting in the middle tent."

"But your wound looks more..."

"Get out."

"Okay."

The dragon tent was blocked by court officials, so Yin Ji naturally couldn't go back. Now he could only go to the middle tent.
