Chapter 12: Leaving Me Two Carp (2) Want me to kiss you?
When the curtain of the sedan chair is opened, the shadow sways.
Lu Guanque saw someone sleeping in a soft sleeper sedan.
He completely ignored the outsiders' gossip and astonishment, and directly picked up the person and carried him horizontally, and walked quickly to the wedding hall. As they walked, the person in his arms clung to him, greedily moving upwards, breathing softly on his neck through the veil.
Lu Guanque gently pressed the back of her neck, tried his best to be patient, walked steadily to the hall, gently put her down, and helped her stand in front of him.
He looked at Meng Xuanli who had fallen to the ground. He was like a puppet without its strings, supported by the bridesmaid, and kowtowed tremblingly.
Lu Guanque's heart was beating like a drum and burning like boiling water, burning away a layer of secret and painful thoughts.
It's either a blinding sight or self-deception.
After all, she is his now.
After the ceremony, Lu Guanque carried her to the bridal chamber.
The moment the veil is lifted.
Lu Guanque stood still.
Meng Xuanli was extremely beautiful today, her eyes were watery and misty, with cloud shadows at the corners of her eyes, like blood and snow.
Her black hair fell into his palm, and she was mumbling something. Lu Guanque felt a surge of heat in his chest, and he listened carefully. As soon as he lowered his ear, Meng Xuanli kissed him on the cheek.
Lu Guanque was in great confusion, looking at her with their noses touching, and it seemed like ten thousand years had passed.
Meng Xuanli's hands were as soft as catkins, and her body was soft in Lu Guanque's arms, like a white moon shadow, soaking his whole body from top to bottom.
Lu Guanque laid her down on the bed and heard her murmur, "It's hot..."
Hearing this, Lu Guanque restrained her under him, his hands hovering around her waist. He breathed heavily, his voice hoarse and muffled, "The medicine will be here soon, A-Li, just bear with it."
Damn it.
She is surrounded by her own people, how could anything go wrong?
Just as he was thinking, Meng Xuanli suddenly reached out and climbed onto his neck. Lu Guanque narrowed his eyes slightly, and in an instant, he carefully removed her hairpins and rings, throwing them to the ground.
“It’s so hot…”
Her hands wandered over his body layer by layer, making Lu Guanque feel confused.
His throat rolled as he peeled off her outer robe, raised his hand to hold her slender white wrist, and stared at her intently: "Who am I?"
Meng Xuanli closed his eyes tightly and shook his head uncomfortably...
Seeing this, Lu Guanque's eyes turned cold, but his tone was gentle: "Ali didn't recognize me because he couldn't see, right?"
Yes.
It must be so.
Lu Guanque lowered his eyes and saw her rosy face and porcelain-white neck, and he suddenly had the evil thought of eating her and then having fun.
She doesn't know him.
She didn't recognize him.
These actions were like boiling water, churning in his mind.
Lu Guanque ignored the moans coming out of her mouth and kissed her frantically as if he was ill, and indulged in her affections, satisfying his greedy and foolish heart.
Since she had fulfilled his desire to marry her, she should now fulfill his desire to have her.
But after just a moment, Meng Xuanli seemed to have lost all his strength and fell into a deep sleep.
The night wind blew, the red curtain fluttered, and Lu Guanque suddenly noticed the wetness on her cheek.
Is she crying?
Or yourself?
Lu Guanque didn't want to delve into it.
There was a moment of silence, and then he let her go.
How could he do this to her?
How could he become such a monster?
Lu Guanque shook his head and forced himself to calm down.
She doesn't like it.
She didn't like him like this.
What she liked was the gentle him, the sick him, and the dying him.
He must continue to act like the person she likes and win her heart.
No.
You must fall in love with him, even if you only regard him as a shadow.
Also.
Lu Guanque only came back to his senses when Chen Bi came in with the medicine. After a while, he fed her the medicine, tucked in the quilt, and only got up after seeing her sleeping peacefully.
When he walked to the corridor, Lu Guanque saw Huo Yuan.
"The... the prince..."
Huo Yuan was aloof and profit-driven by nature. Today, upon receiving orders, he hesitated.
"What? Didn't you catch anyone?"
Lu Guanque looked indifferent, savoring the taste between his lips and teeth.
"The night was thick, and that man not only escaped extremely quickly, but also injured several of our brothers." Huo Yuan knelt down in fear, cold sweat on his forehead. "His skills are like those of someone who has been wandering the martial arts world for years, and his moves are also extremely vicious."
"Very good." Lu Guanque was slightly startled and asked doubtfully, "Where did he go?"
"Towards Liangzhou."
When Lu Guanque lifted the curtain of the sedan chair, he knew Meng Xuanli had been drugged. Upon investigation, he found Meng Xiuyu. After several interrogations, he found out that Meng Xiuyu was pregnant, so he had no chance to kill her.
I had hoped that by bringing in all the maids and interrogating them one by one, I could eventually find the person who drugged me. But before the interrogation even began, one of the maids stepped forward to testify. As soon as she finished speaking, she hit herself against a pillar. This maid's background was spotless, and just like the previous incident, the clues were cut off again.
It looks like it was done by one person.
"Follow him and go to Liangzhou."
Lu Guanque's face was gloomy, and he smiled: "Follow him until he dies, then come see me."
"Go ahead."
Huo Yuan lay motionless on the ground, and didn't dare to look up until the sound of footsteps gradually faded away.
Looking at the figure going away, he trembled with fear.
*
The next morning, the tent curtains, a reddish hue like shrimp roe, swayed in the wind. Meng Xuanli turned over, realizing it was already daybreak. She raised her hand to rub her eyes and faintly heard Lu Guanque's voice.
"woke up?"
"Why are you here?" Meng Xuanli seemed to have forgotten the fact that he was married.
Lu Guanque smiled and said, "If I'm not here, then where am I?" Meng Xuanli reached out and stroked the soft pillow, saying, "...Thank you for your hard work, my Lord."
Yesterday, she endured the pain in the sedan chair and forced herself to stay awake in the wedding hall. It was not until she lay on the bed that she completely lost consciousness. Meng Xuanli sighed. If the prince hadn't noticed her condition at a glance, she would have been talked about.
"The person who drugged you was not Meng Xiuyu's maid."
Meng Xuanli bit her lip. She had initially suspected Meng Xiuyu of being responsible for all the strange things that happened yesterday. Now that she thought about it carefully, she was afraid that she had misunderstood Meng Xiuyu.
Meng Xiuyu was the one who least wanted this marriage to go wrong, and she would never give her drugs on the wedding day, especially that kind of drug. This would not benefit her in the slightest.
If it's not her, then who could it be?
The thought flashed through her mind, and Meng Xuanli carefully straightened up, leaning back against the pillow with Lu Guanque's help. She calmed down and whispered, "I suspect the person who ordered that maidservant is the same person who kidnapped me."
Lu Guanque's eyes were like a pool of water. He stood up with a flick of his sleeves and sat beside Meng Xuanli's bed: "Not bad."
"He kidnapped me and drugged me. What's his intention?" Meng Xuanli couldn't understand. "Besides, I lived in Xuzhou for a long time and only returned at the beginning of the year. I don't have any enemies. How could that man target me..."
"What good can it do?"
Lu Guanque's eyes moved slightly, and he coughed softly, "You don't need to worry about this matter. I have already sent people to Liangzhou. I believe that the truth will be revealed soon."
"My Lord, tell me, is that man mentally ill? How could a good person want to destroy someone's eyesight? And even want to destroy someone's reputation? It's truly despicable."
Her words were like pearls falling on a jade plate, each one ringing and each one clear and crisp.
"He's targeting you, not because of you..." Lu Guanque sighed, took her wrist and said guiltily, "It's because of me."
Meng Xuanli listened to his seriousness, his mind shifted slightly, and he said comfortingly, "It wasn't you, it was me. I... I offended a lot of people in Xuzhou before, and they might have done it."
She had heard that the Crown Prince's mother was murdered, so the Duke went to Chang'an and the Crown Prince was also seriously ill.
Meng Xuanli didn't know the details of the matter, but he had a vague feeling that the prince had escaped death and was able to survive.
In order to allow him to live longer, she couldn't let him feel guilty.
Lu Guanque smiled faintly and said nothing more. He rubbed her palm with his fingertips, the force flowing slowly like a spring spring.
Meng Xuanli lowered his head and smiled, "I'm a little thirsty. Could you pour me a cup of tea, my Lord?"
"Of course." Lu Guanque let go of her hand, stood up, poured a cup of tea and handed it to her.
After finishing their tea, Meng Xuanli suddenly remembered something and said in annoyance, "Today is our wedding day. Shouldn't we go to the palace to thank His Majesty for granting us this marriage?"
"You only remembered it now?" Lu Guanque put the teacup aside. "His Majesty sent someone this morning to tell me that you can come with me to see the emperor after your eye disease is healed."
Meng Xuanli breathed a sigh of relief: "Thankfully, Your Majesty is considerate."
After saying that, Lu Guanque tucked in her bedding, then waved his sleeves and sat down beside her: "However, there is something I need to ask Ah Li's opinion on."
"What's the matter?" Meng Xuanli asked curiously.
"It's between you and me."
Lu Guanque narrowed his eyes and looked at her face carefully.
Meng Xuanli's face froze, and he bit his lip without saying a word.
She naturally knew what it was.
They got married yesterday and are nominally husband and wife, but in reality they haven't performed the Zhougong ceremony yet.
Meng Xuanli understood, clenched his fingers, and tapped his palm lightly with his fingertips: "Then... will the prince go back to his room to rest tonight?"
"Um."
Seeing her awkwardness, Lu Guanque raised the corner of his lips slightly: "Don't want to?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Meng Xuanli's cheeks flushed. From Lu Guanque's perspective, she looked like a rhododendron, faintly seeping into his eyes.
"I……"
To be honest, although he had never done that, Meng Xuanli knew a lot about it from books before, and even the details were clearly seen.
clear.
She inexplicably thought of last night's dream.
Last night, she dreamed of a man in black who carefully undressed her, kissed her lips, and gently wandered over her body with his hands.
In her dream, she wanted to push him away, but no matter how hard she pushed, she couldn't muster any strength and could only let him kiss her. The man in black even turned her over and pressed her so hard that she couldn't breathe.
Later, Meng Xuanli suddenly woke up and found that the quilt covered her face, so...
In the future, the prince will sleep in the same bed with me. If he finds out that I had such a dream, it would probably be embarrassing.
Meng Xuanli bit her lip and whispered, "I'm not ready."
Lu Guanque slowly leaned forward, a smile on his lips, and said lightly: "It's not tonight, what are you afraid of?"
"I'm not afraid. I just feel... I'm a little sleepy and might disturb the prince's sweet dreams."
Meng Xuanli leaned back slightly.
Lu Guanque's eyes were filled with warmth as he fixed his gaze on her snow-white, slender neck. He recalled how when he quietly licked and kissed this place last night, Meng Xuanli moaned softly and even grabbed his hair, saying it was itchy.
Lu Guanque raised the corners of his lips, covered her eyes with his palms, and blew gently.
At some point, the wind quietly came in from outside the window and floated on Meng Xuanli's face. She felt the heat coming from her eyes, her body stiffened, and she forgot to breathe.
"Don't bother me. Living together is inevitable, but as for that matter, let's wait until your eye disease is healed. It won't be too late to discuss it later."
Lu Guanque leaned close to her nose, breathing in and out of her. Seeing how frightened she was, Lu Guanque smiled without saying a word, and then breathed out his hot breath on her lips, cheeks, and neck.
"itch."
Meng Xuanli reached out his hand blankly, but Lu Guanque grabbed his wrist and said, "If you don't move, the itch will go away."
The voice was so close that Meng Xuanli swallowed and stammered, "You are...?!"
"exist--"
"Kiss you."
Meng Xuanli was startled and hurriedly pushed him away, covering her face with her sleeves and her lips with her bare hands. Her heart was beating rapidly, and she realized that Lu Guanque was just teasing her. "Are you kidding me?!"
"What? You want me to kiss you?"
The voice sounded like that of a person in a dream, cool and soft.
Meng Xuanli lowered his head and whispered: "I don't want to..."
Lu Guanque's eyes darkened slightly. He lifted her sleeves and lifted her chin with one hand.
"Hmm."
