sudden rain
Xiao Zhu didn't understand why Liu Zai Xi was so calm, but he believed that the young lady must be right.
A door separates the noise. Outside the door, people are protesting against Liu Zaixi becoming the princess, while inside the door, Liu Zaixi is calmly drinking tea.
Qiu Wuji didn't have much time to relax. He was kept behind right after the court session. The ministers around him were whispering to each other. It must be said that gossip in the capital spread too fast. Even the old men were well-informed.
Qiu Wuji followed Qiu Sheng to the side hall. Qiu Sheng put something heavily on the table, making a loud noise. The eunuchs outside the door trembled three times.
"What's going on between you and Xi'er? Now everyone in the capital is clamoring for you to divorce her!"
Qiu Wuji: "Didn't Father oppose this marriage from the beginning? Isn't it more to his liking now?"
Qiu Sheng was speechless and could only turn his back.
Indeed, Qiu Sheng opposed this marriage at the beginning, but it was Jiang Zhiyi who fanned the flames. No one would let their beloved child marry someone they had not approved. But then he met Liu Zaixi. Liu Zaixi's cheerful personality was just like Shu Fei ten years ago, vivid and three-dimensional. Qiu Sheng understood why Qiu Wuji would marry Liu Zaixi. He could see that Qiu Wuji really liked Liu Zaixi, so he didn't want to interfere with Qiu Wuji's pursuit of happiness. This was his last blessing as an incompetent father.
"I don't care. I don't want to hear any rumors within ten days. I must take Xi'er back."
Qiu Wuji said to Qiu Sheng confidently, "It doesn't take ten days, three days will be enough."
Qiu Sheng looked back at his son and actually saw a bit of shamelessness on Qiu Wuji's face.
It's an illusion, it must be an illusion.
Qiu Wuji did not return to the palace after leaving the palace. He went to the restaurant to eat delicious food first. It was less than a day away, but he already missed it.
However, as expected, Qiu Wuji was refused entry. The door was closed and he could not get in at all. Qiu Wuji stood outside the door, surrounded by three or two circles of passers-by, talking about it.
"The prince even came to see the princess specially. It seems like it's just an ordinary quarrel."
"How is that possible? This woman must have something on the prince."
"What leverage does the prince have?"
"That's right."
"Then tell me why."
"Why don't you just ask?"
Qiu Wuji stood outside the door and didn't leave. As soon as someone made this suggestion, someone who wasn't afraid of death actually came up to Qiu Wuji, clasped his fists, and asked, "I wonder what's wrong with the prince and princess?"
Qiu Wuji smiled as if bathed in the spring breeze, "My wife is just in a bad mood, and I just made her angry."
The man retreated: "Did you hear that? It was just a quarrel. Every couple quarrels."
The crowd grew larger and larger, all discussing how Qiu Wuji had made Liu Zaixi angry.
"If you ask me, it's just that. I had a delicious meal there, and the princess is a very nice person."
"That's right, who spread the rumor?"
Qiu Wuji just stood there, and the rumor was refuted. After all, the rumor had no substance.
Some people in the crowd began to give Qiu Wuji advice.
"Your Highness, even if a couple quarrels at the head of the bed, they make up at the foot of the bed. Just coax them more and they will be fine. To coax a wife, one must be shameless."
"Your Highness, you can climb into the yard through the back door."
"What a rotten idea you came up with! The prince would never do such a thing."
Then Qiu Wuji walked towards the back door of the alley. The crowd wanted to see how Prince Heng would pursue his wife, so they followed him into the alley.
Qiu Wuji looked up at the height, used his lightness skills, jumped easily, supported himself on the wall with his hands, and flipped over smoothly. The people watching below the wall applauded, saying that he was worthy of being His Royal Highness the King Heng who defended his country.
Liu Zai Xi was sitting in the yard eating snacks with Liu Mubai and Xiao Zhu when Qiu Wuji jumped in lightly. Liu Zai Xi loosened his grip and the pastries fell.
He immediately put his hands on his hips and angrily yelled at Qiu Wuji: "Who let you in?"
Qiu Wuji approached, and with every step he took, Liu Zaixi unconsciously took a step back.
Just when it was about to reach Liu Zai Xi, it was blocked by Liu Mubai with his sword.
Qiu Wuji stopped, stared at the sword in front of him, and said, "It's a good sword, but it's stained with too many things."
Liu Mubai: "Your Highness Prince Heng has fought on the battlefield, so he should be more exposed to the virus than me."
"Mine is an enemy that is about to invade our country. What is yours?"
Liu Mubai stopped talking. They were clearly murderers, so why could he be so noble?
He was unwilling to accept it.
"Okay, Xiaobai, put down your sword first." Liu Zaixi spoke, and Liu Mubai put away his sword.
"What are you doing here?"
"I'll take you home and hide away. There are too many people outside the courtyard. I'll become a target of public criticism."
"You deserve it." Liu Zai Xi was merciless and seemed not to intend to let Qiu Wuji stay.
But in the end, I still relented and said, "Just get out of here now."
Qiu Wuji still didn't answer, he didn't agree.
Out of sight, out of mind. When he walked into the room, Liu Zai Xi was gone. Liu Mubai didn't want to see Qiu Wuji either, so he went back into the house.
Xiao Zhu blinked, bowed to Qiu Wuji, and hurried into Liu Zaixi's house.
Liu Zaixi was already lying on the bed, leisurely reading a storybook. Xiao Zhu was very curious and finally asked, "Why is the young lady angry with the prince?"
"He actually kissed..."
Xiao Zhu didn't hear clearly: "What, Miss."
"Anyway, he did something really, really outrageous. You're not still trying to defend him, are you?"
Xiao Zhu quickly waved her hands: "Of course I stand on the young lady's side, but the prince also looks pitiful."
Poor thing. Liu Zai Xi finally understood that Qiu Wuji was best at pretending to be pitiful. She took care of him before because she felt sorry for him, but he actually touched her in the end. She shouldn't have agreed to it in the first place. How could Qiu Wuji be a good person?
"Miss, no matter what the prince did, he definitely likes you. Although Xiaozhu doesn't have anyone he likes, Xiaozhu can see it."
Liu Zaixi's face twisted: "How did you know that?"
Xiao Zhu glanced away: "Anyway, I can see it."
Liu Zaixi dropped the storybook, stood up, walked up to Xiaozhu with a heroic and arrogant look, and pinched Xiaozhu's face: "I finally understand, your elbow is turned outward."
"No, no, miss, I'm not jealous anymore." Xiao Zhu begged for mercy in a vague voice.
At this moment, a flash of lightning struck the sky, blinding Liu Zai Xi's eyes.
"It's going to rain, my lady. Why isn't the prince leaving yet?"
"Never mind him. It would be better if he was struck by lightning." Liu Zai Xi continued to lie on the bed and read the storybook, looking unconcerned.
The last heavy rain of late summer came suddenly, and the sudden rain was cold, hitting people's faces with a chill. Everyone on the street was rushing home to be with their wives and children. Only Qiu Wuji stood in the yard, looking towards Liu Zaixi's room. He had no intention of hiding from the rain, nor did he mean to leave.
Soon the rain got heavier, as if deliberately coordinating with the endless autumn. Summer rain should come and go quickly, but this rain showed no sign of stopping. Instead, it got heavier.
Qiu Wuji's posture never changed. He was lying on the bed with the door closed, but Liu Zaixi could always feel a gaze on him.
"Xiao Zhu, hasn't he left yet?"
Xiao Zhu shook her head. Liu Zai Xi felt that she couldn't be soft-hearted towards this man. She must not forgive him easily this time. If he wanted to get wet in the rain, he could get wet in the rain. If he was sick, he could just go away honestly.
An hour passed, Liu Zai Xi finished reading the entire storybook, rubbed his eyes and sat up.
"Let's go."
Still shaking his head.
The sound of rain hitting the eaves never stopped, and it was raining all the time in his world.
Liu Zai Xi carefully looked out through the crack in the door. The heavy rain clearly blurred his vision, but Liu Zai Xi still quickly closed the door, as he always felt that he saw it.
Of course she knew that Qiu Wuji was playing the victim, a common tactic used by men.
three,
two,
one.
Liu Zaixi opened the door, and the rain was pouring down on her face, piercing her face like needles. She rushed into the rain, grabbed Qiu Wuji's hand, and pulled him into the house.
The sky is clear.
Loving is a girl's natural ability, it has nothing to do with whether I like you or not.
"Xiaozhu, go prepare some hot water and a change of clothes."
Liu Zai Xi threw a towel to Qiu Wuji and signaled him to wipe it himself.
Qiu Wuji showed a triumphant smile under his scarf. His princess was still too kind. What would he do if he met bad people in the future?
Qiu Wuji was bathing in Liu Zaixi's room while Liu Zaixi was enjoying the breeze outside. He didn't know if this was the right thing to do.
It had clearly been a long time, and Qiu Wuji only needed to wash off the coldness from his body, but he insisted on waiting until the water had completely cooled down before coming out.
Liu Zai Xi was getting impatient waiting outside. As soon as he rushed into the house, Qiu Wuji came out from behind the screen, wrapped only in a piece of cloth that could not cover anything. Water flowed over his abdominal muscles. Qiu Wuji's body was very firm, without a trace of fat, and his figure was well maintained.
What a beautiful picture of a handsome man emerging from the bath.
Liu Zai Xi stood there and watched for a few seconds before realizing that she had been impulsive. She closed her eyes in panic, slowly backed away, groping for the door, but tripped over the threshold and was about to fall to the ground. Qiu Wu Ji stepped forward, and Liu Zai Xi fell into Qiu Wu Ji's arms. Qiu Wu Ji used his internal force to close the door.
Qiu Wuji's arms were not soft, and his body was covered with hard muscles, almost the same as the ground. Liu Zaixi felt a pain in his nose after being hit, so he covered his nose and looked up. Water droplets slid down Qiu Wuji's hair and dripped onto Liu Zaixi's face, drop by drop.
"Let me go."
I don’t know if it was because Qiu Wuji’s hug was too deep, but Liu Zaixi was a little breathless.
Escaping from the embrace, Liu Zai Xi quickly turned around.
"Put your clothes on quickly, this is so embarrassing."
Then, Liu Zaixi clearly heard the sound of the last piece of cloth on Qiu Wuji's body falling to the ground, followed by the rustling sound of him putting on clothes, inner clothes, belt, outer clothes, every step was clear.
Qiu Wuji was like wearing clothes in front of Liu Zaixi. Although he was right in front of him, he just couldn't see him. However, Liu Zaixi had already imagined it, as if he really saw it.
A warm current flowed out of his nose. Liu Zaixi touched it and saw a flash of red in front of his eyes.
