But I also feel that it shouldn’t be the case.
The two sisters looked quite similar.
Moreover, the person who dressed her up deliberately dressed her according to Li Xiaodie's appearance. In addition, the lights were dim now. Even if the emperor had glanced at Li Xiaodie from a distance, he should not have noticed anything unusual so quickly.
Besides, in the previous life, before this, His Majesty had never met Li Xiaodie.
Li Xiaodie was lost in thought when she heard the person beside the bed sigh inaudibly.
Her heart, which had just sunk a little, was lifted up again.
I took a deep breath and slowly opened my eyes, but I only saw a silhouette.
The emperor was not looking at her, but just lowered his head slightly, pressing his temple with his right hand, as if he had a headache.
Oh, and he just drank.
Gu Jingyan seemed to notice that Li Shushu had opened her eyes, and suddenly put down his hand and looked at her.
What caught his eye was a fair and rosy little face with a melon-shaped shape. The big, lively eyes like a deer were blinking at him, making her look particularly innocent and cute.
The emperor thought: Never mind, she is just an innocent person.
"Did I wake you up?"
The voice was as gentle as possible, as if afraid of scaring her, but it could not conceal its majesty.
Only then did Li Shushu see the emperor's face clearly, and his breathing stopped for a moment.
This His Majesty is so handsome, he is even more handsome than the Seventh Prince.
Needless to say, his facial features are clean and beautiful. His narrow eyes are dark and gentle, yet they carry a bit of imperial power, making people willingly submit.
A small brown mole on the tip of his nose makes his whole face look a little softer, making him unforgettable.
He is not as intimidating as other emperors as outsiders have said.
Seeing that Li Shushu didn't reply, he frowned slightly and asked again: "What's wrong?"
Li Shushu reacted and shook her head like a rattle: "No, no, I was just pretending to be asleep. Your Majesty didn't wake me up."
When she uttered this voice, even Li Shushu herself was stunned for a moment. How could her voice... become so soft and pleasant?
It seemed like the same voice, but also different, soft and sweet, with a hint of charm and tenderness.
The emperor was stunned for a moment, then smiled faintly and said, "You are quite honest."
He spoke again: "Why were you looking at me just now? Is there anything strange on my face?"
Li Shushu tilted his head and thought about it seriously, then replied, "Yes."
"Hmm?" The emperor followed the sound and touched his face with his hands, "Where?"
Li Shushu smiled slyly and said cautiously, "It looks good. Your Majesty's face is really beautiful."
In the past, Li Shushu was very cautious and would never dare to say such words.
But now, she has changed. In order to make the person in front of her happy, she has to get used to saying nice things.
Sure enough, the emperor was very pleased with what Li Shushu said.
I thought tonight would be another boring night like the past, but unexpectedly it was quite interesting.
The corners of his lips curled up, and he reached out to scratch Li Shushu's nose: "I just praised you for your honesty, why are you flattering me now?"
Li Shushu touched his nose awkwardly and thought to himself: Your Majesty is wrong, I am not flattering a horse, I am flattering a dragon.
But this was too flattering, so she didn't dare say it out loud.
She just pretended to be timid and pulled the corner of the quilt to cover her face, leaving her eyes staring at him.
The emperor was not idle either. He looked at her and thought to himself: She is a wonderful person. She is more interesting than those well-behaved women who come here every day.
Gu Jingyan was now somewhat interested. He leaned over with interest, met her eyes, and asked in a low voice, "Why are you hiding? Will I eat you? Huh?"
As he got closer, he could smell a faint fragrance at the tip of his nose. It was very pleasant and relieved the dizziness and headache he felt after drinking. He felt a little better.
The little girl shrank back again and said timidly, "I'm afraid I'll say the wrong thing. The nanny said that if you anger the emperor, you'll be beheaded."
As if to confirm her fear, the voice was as soft as a mosquito's.
"Oh? Which blind maid said that?" He pretended to frown and said seriously, "I will have her killed right away."
That would be great!
Li Shushu thought to herself that Nanny Liu had been very bad to her in her previous life, and she was the target of her revenge anyway.
But she knew it wasn't realistic at the moment, and her eyes widened as if she was scared "Huh?"
Gu Jingyan was amused by her innocent look and pinched her face: "I was just kidding you, whatever you want to say or do, just follow your heart, I won't be angry."
"It hurts..." Li Shushu touched her face which had turned red from being pinched, and looked at him with a smile as if she was finally relieved.
I didn't expect that the emperor in this life would have such a good temper. Did I have any misunderstandings about him in my previous life?
"What's your name?" Gu Jingyan asked.
Li Shushu, my name is Li Shushu, she answered in her heart. I like the ancient poem "The fence is sparse and the path is deep" very much. Her surname is Li, so she chose this name.
But how could she say it now?
It's not time yet.
"Li Xiaodie," she said, biting her lip. To divert her attention, she asked, "What's the emperor's name?"
Gu Jingyan seemed to have heard some extraordinary new question. He was surprised for a moment before he said, "Gu Jingyan."
After saying that, he grabbed her little hand and wrote on her palm: "Gu, Jing, Yan, do you understand?"
Li Shushu nodded obediently.
"Remember this well," he said again, stroking her soft, waist-length hair.
