Chapter 294 Love that lasts till death
He tentatively opened his eyes, not with a grimace, but with the most familiar face in his memory.
"Rong, Rong'er?"
Ji Xiurong's expression twisted for a moment. No, this Bai Yueguang, her name is similar to hers?
Not noticing her loss of composure, Xiao Chuji stared at her blankly with eyes full of nostalgia.
"It's me..."
Ji Xiurong continued faintly, taking the initiative to approach him: "Your Highness... are you in love with me?"
Xiao Chuji was stunned.
He didn't expect that the words he hadn't said before he died would be made clear by the dead. Xiao Chuji felt mixed emotions in his heart, his throat was dry and he couldn't speak, but just nodded slightly.
"In that case..." Ji Xiurong's voice suddenly turned sharp: "Why don't you come to find me, why don't you come to accompany me?"
Suddenly, a strong wind blew, and Ji Rongrong's hair flew everywhere, and her clothes also flew. Combined with her face, she had a bit of a fierce and fierce aura of asking for death.
Xiao Chuji: "..."
He wanted to faint again.
The hand hidden under the sleeve clenched into a fist, and his nails dug into the flesh. The pain stimulated his nerves, and he barely regained consciousness.
He was about to say something, but Ji Xiurong didn't give him a chance to think, and rushed forward.
A magnified face suddenly came into view, Xiao Chuji's pupils contracted, his eyes turned black, and he fainted again.
[It really is a love that lasts until death. Ji Xiurong
: "..."
You can use more sarcastic tone, she loves to hear it!
This situation was repeated overnight, and later, Xiao Chuji seemed to have finally learned his lesson. Even if he woke up, he was determined not to close his eyes.
He lay on the cold ground all night and made it until dawn. As soon as
the sky turned pale, Xiao Chuji rolled out of the house, and did not dare to turn around and look again.
... In the
early morning, Xiao Lingyu got up and went to the palace to see the queen. When
the queen saw him come in, she did not raise her eyes, picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and said lightly: "Kneel down."
Xiao Lingyu knelt down as she was told.
"You came to see me today, but are you here to admit your fault?"
Xiao Lingyu looked up at her: "What did you say, mother? If it is because I haven't come to see you for a long time, I am unfilial, and I admit my fault. If it is about the previous matter, please tell me clearly, what have I done wrong?"
The queen's mouth twitched, and she picked up the teacup on the table and threw it at Xiao Lingyu. The boiling tea touched Xiao Lingyu's exposed skin, which immediately became red and swollen, and looked particularly scary.
Xiao Lingyu endured the pain and said nothing.
The palace maid serving beside him hissed subconsciously and hurried to find medicine for him.
"Don't move," the queen stopped them in a stern voice, her eyes fixed on Xiao Lingyu who was kneeling on the ground: "Everyone, go down, no matter what you hear, no one is allowed to come in without my order, otherwise, you will be beaten to death!"
The maids retreated one after another, and the palace door was closed.
"What do you want to do?" The queen's voice was cold and hard: "You are the prince, born to inherit the throne, become the emperor, and ascend to the most honorable position in the world that everyone covets!" "
But what about you? You are so good, not only do you not perform well in front of your father, but you also give the opportunity away!"
"Are you worthy of me? Are you worthy of those ministers that I worked so hard to bring here?!"
She shouted at the top of her lungs, and Xiao Lingyu looked at her with waving eyes.
"So, in your eyes, I am nothing more than a tool to fight for the throne?"
"What did you say?!" The queen frowned and looked at him in surprise.
"Isn't it?" Xiao Lingyu said calmly: "Since I was a child, you have always told me and taught me to fight for power and to perform well in front of my father. Isn't all this for that position?"
"What about after that? When I sit in that position, will you follow the example of the previous dynasty, sideline the emperor, and rule the country yourself?"
Xiao Lingyu looked at her sharply, and the queen avoided his gaze, avoiding looking at him.
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Although it was a rebuke, the queen's tone at this moment was like that of a person who was angry and ashamed after being exposed: "As a prince, you should be like this. I'm doing this for your own good.
" "What's more, you are the crown prince. Even if you don't fight for it, what about others? Will they let you sit in this position just because you don't fight for it?!"
The more the queen spoke, the louder her voice seemed to convince herself: "Impossible! I let you fight for it so that you can better protect yourself!"
"Your Majesty, you know the truth very well in your heart. Why bother saying these high-sounding words to fool me?" Xiao Lingyu looked at her calmly.
"How I got the position of Crown Prince, mother and I know it very well."
As if a thunderclap sounded in her ears, the Queen's eyes widened and her mouth slightly opened: "What did you say? What do you know?"
Xiao Lingyu stood up and approached the Queen step by step. His shadow gradually enveloped the Queen, and there was an indescribable sense of oppression.
It was at this moment that the Queen suddenly realized that the man in front of her was no longer the child in her childhood who allowed herself to be flattened and rounded.
"Mother, today is the first and last time I will tell you," Xiao Lingyu leaned over to her ear, his tone flat: "I will never fight for or snatch the throne, it does not belong to me." After
the banquet, Xiao Lingyu did not even look at the Queen's furious face, turned around and walked out of the palace.
...
A few days passed in a blink of an eye, Xiao Chuji also stopped being active, and did not look for Ji Xiurong.
Perhaps this incident had a huge impact on Xiao Chuji. It is said that Xiao Chuji now does not allow the maids to blow out the candles at night. Even at night, the house must be as bright as day, and many Buddha statues are placed.
Jiang Zhiyu: "..."
[That's all you have achieved. You still keep saying that you harmed my brother for Bai Yueguang. Now that Bai Yueguang has appeared, you dare not even fart, and you still have to exorcise evil spirits. Tsk tsk tsk.]
[Bai Yueguang would be so angry if she knew about this.]
Jiang Kangan, who told her about this, said: "..."
So, who exactly is Xiao Chuji's white moonlight?
He had sent people to inquire, but to no avail.
...
When the Nangu delegation came to Beijing, it was not known to the whole city like in Mobei. They entered Beijing in a low-key manner, followed Jiang Wenjing into the palace, met the emperor in Yu's study, and then lived in the place arranged by the emperor for them. They were terribly well-behaved along the way, and did not even mention Malzaha.
Jiang Wenjing went into Yu's study to report to the emperor. The emperor was reviewing the memorials, and his eyes were full of confusion when he heard it.
It shouldn't be like this. The Nangu delegation this time was sent by Prince Erzhu Huaji and Princess Tudola.
Although Erzhu Huaji and Malzaha are half-siblings, they have a close relationship like brothers. It is said that he personally fought for this mission.
Now that I have arrived in Shengjing, there is no mention of it...
