Chapter 246 If You Want to Be the Queen, I Will Seize the Throne
The Gongyang family was wealthy and their house was particularly large.
It may be that the head of the Gongyang family took into consideration the extraordinary identities of the three people and showed them special respect.
Even a separate courtyard was specially prepared for them to live in.
Although it is just a villa, it is meticulously maintained.
The servants served in an orderly manner, the courtyard was cleaned spotlessly, and most importantly, this place was extremely quiet with no one else disturbing it.
On the third day after General Su's death, King Si was beheaded in public.
Emperor Nanxin even killed his own descendants in the name of revenge for his loyal ministers, which directly won him more love from the people.
To him, the last value of the King has been squeezed out.
It was worth it that he used three cities and a large price to redeem it from Dongji.
Until the funeral of General Su, Li Tianzhuo would go to the mourning hall every day to guard it, and he almost went between the Su family and the Gongyang family.
When Deng Youning was not needing treatment, she would go with him.
The Su family and other ministers who came to pay their respects saw how close the two of them behaved and understood their relationship.
Today, the two of them just returned to the city after attending the funeral of General Su.
Just said goodbye to Su Jia and others at the city gate.
The two of them strolled back to Gongyang's home, but the weather was not good and it suddenly started to rain.
Helpless, he could only hide under the eaves of someone's house for the time being.
"Come on, wipe it off, you're all soaked."
Although Li Tianzhuo's clothes were obviously wetter, he still thought about using his handkerchief to wipe Deng Youning's hair first.
"You protected me all the way just now, but you got soaked even more. Please wipe yourself well and don't catch a cold."
Deng Youning pushed his wrist and asked him to wipe it for her first.
"This rain comes quickly and goes away quickly."
"Let's take shelter here first. Before we go back, I'll take you to have a bowl of steamed buns to warm you up."
"You are new to Yuncheng. When General Su's work is done, I will take you for a good tour."
Li Tianzhuo was very interested.
It would be more accurate to say that he missed his own childhood rather than wanting to take Deng Youning for a walk.
At that time, he was a person second only to the emperor and above everyone else in Yuncheng. He was carefree and roamed around the city.
It's so uncomfortable.
"Okay, I also want to see the scenery you see."
Deng Youning saw that he was in a rare mood and naturally didn't want to spoil his mood.
He had lived such a hard life in his past two lives, and finally got the chance to return to the hometown where he grew up in this life.
She knew that he was reluctant to leave this place again.
I didn’t know it before, but now I know his true identity. He belongs to Nanxin and Yuncheng.
Deng Youning was also wondering if it would be too unfair to him if she took him away from here?
Thinking of this, she lowered her eyes and saw the hands held together, feeling mixed emotions.
Is it time to let go?
If you really love him, you should let him pursue a better future.
Li Tianzhuo was still chattering about the scenery he wanted to take her to see, but deep down, Deng Youning had already started planning to separate.
She loves him very much, but she will never give up being herself for him.
Dongji has her hard-earned family and friends. She cannot stop contacting them as Emperor Nanxin said and just stay here as Princess Changle.
Perhaps, after recovering from her illness, she should leave a letter and go away without saying goodbye.
But, she understood Li Tianzhuo and knew that he would not give up on her easily.
What should I do?
Deng Youning suddenly raised her head and looked at him with tears in her eyes.
Li Tianzhuo was a little stunned for a moment. Did he say something wrong?
But he just kept saying that Yuncheng is a good place to eat, drink and have fun, and he didn't say anything else?
"Azhuo, the rain has stopped."
Deng Youning stretched out his hand and began to lower the accumulated water under the eaves.
"Then let's go and eat some steamed buns."
Li Tianzhuo grabbed her wrist.
At that moment, his eyes, smiling like the sun, seemed to be reflected in a rainbow.
It's rare to see him so happy.
Deng Youning felt as if he saw himself before he was demoted to a commoner and before his martial arts were abolished.
The young man dressed in white, full of vigor and vitality, the best martial artist in Nanxin.
As the two of them reached the corner of the street, they met a man and a woman holding an umbrella.
Deng Youning and Li Tianzhuo could recognize the two men even if they turned into ashes.
Especially the woman, who surprised them even more.
"When did Deng Xuelian meet Prince Yi?"
Deng Youning’s eyes almost popped out of her head in question.
Li Tianzhuo shrugged. How would he know?
"Let's go, follow them!"
Just as Deng Youning was about to catch up, King Yi and Deng Xuelian turned around, got on the carriage, and drove away.
"Unfortunately, I can't catch up."
Li Tianzhuo said regretfully.
No wonder the incident involving Wang Si caused such a big fuss, but Wang Yi has not even shown up in the past few days.
"With a beauty by your side, I'm afraid you, my elder brother, have already forgotten about fighting for the throne."
Deng Youning said sarcastically.
She really admired Deng Xuelian. They all thought she had died in the capital of Dongji, but she unexpectedly transformed herself and got close to King Nan Xinyi.
Her methods really made me underestimate her.
"Since Deng Xuelian is also in Yuncheng, we have to be extra careful in the future."
Deng Youning reminded Li Tianzhuo.
She always felt that Deng Xuelian had an inexplicable obsession with the position of queen.
Even if Prince Yi had no intention of seizing the throne, Deng Xuelian would inevitably instigate him.
In this case, the two are still a threat to them.
"We will leave after we have treated the disease, and we will not ask about other matters."
Li Tianzhuo said firmly.
Deng Youning glanced at him coldly and asked:
"If something really happens to the Nanxin court and the people, can you really just sit back and watch?"
These words, like a long thorn, pierced his heart.
Without waiting for his reply, Deng Youning continued:
"Azhuo, I know your character and I know you can't do that."
"Since you can't, just do whatever you want. We all have one life to live again, so don't leave any regrets for yourself in this life."
She patted Li Tianzhuo's arm and encouraged him.
Li Tianzhuo himself understood that his father was seriously ill and might not have much time left to live.
They have now fallen out with King Yi, and with Deng Xuelian's pillow talk, it is inevitable that if King Yi succeeds to the throne in the future, he will hunt down himself, Ningning and others.
By then, even if they hide in Dongji, they will never have peace.
"Ningning, do you want to be the queen?"
"If you want, I will fight for the throne."
"If you don't want to, I will select someone from the royal family, let him stand out in front of my father, and have the strength to fight against King Yi."
Li Tianzhuo asked in a serious tone.
So sincere, so cautious.
Deng Youning frowned slightly, it seemed that what she had just said was in vain.
"Azhuo, you have to know that it's not about what I want to do, but what you should do."
"No matter how you try to escape, you can never change the fact that you are the Prince of Nanxin."
"Under the prosperous city of Nanxin, there may be countless dirty things hidden, all waiting for you to make them clear."
"Azhuo, you don't have to accompany me to Gongyang's house. Go back to your own Changle Palace."
Having said this, Deng Youning turned around and left, so cleanly and neatly.
Li Tianzhuo froze in place, subconsciously wanting to hold her back, but Deng Youning didn't give him the chance.
He knew that he was driven out by Ningning.
"Ning Ning——"
He called out to Deng Youning from behind, but Deng Youning ignored him and just kept walking forward.
Her heart also ached, but she knew she had to let Li Tianzhuo calm down for a while.
His father loved him so much that he was willing to pay any price to get him back to be the King of Changle.
He didn't even need to fight for Nan Xin's throne.
Let him stay here and be the supreme king of Nanxin Kingdom.
This is his life.
Instead of wasting two lives, with the whole life revolving around yourself.
