The emperor nodded.
He has not yet transitioned from his role as emperor and is used to being served by others.
In addition, he was unable to move at the moment, and the wound on one of his legs was quite deep and would need to be treated later.
Xu Lingyi acted quickly. When she came back, she not only brought back a lot of firewood, but also a rabbit.
"Your Majesty, what do you think this is?"
Xu Lingyi was in high spirits. She smiled softly, appearing gentler. "I shot a rabbit. Your Majesty, your meal tonight is settled."
The emperor disliked vicious and domineering women. He thought that he would be filled with disgust when he was with her.
But in reality, she was not as arrogant as he thought. Instead, she was not even spoiled and willful.
The emperor began to doubt the rumors of the past.
"Yeah." The emperor nodded, his face still expressionless.
Xu Lingyi looked embarrassed and smiled faintly.
But in his heart, he had already cursed the dog emperor countless times.
She knew he didn't like her, and she didn't either.
It's just a strategy, winning her heart is the most important thing. Only if he falls in love with her will he be willing to get rid of his enemies for her in the future.
She also doesn't need to wait until her son grows up.
Now he didn't like her, he even hated her.
She could only disguise herself temporarily and keep a low profile.
If he ever expresses his feelings for her in the future, she will definitely treat him the same way he treats her today.
"Can you make a fire?" asked the emperor.
Xu Lingyi nodded: "Father once taught me."
The emperor took out a fire starter from his waist and handed it to her with his uninjured hand.
"Use this."
Xu Lingyi pretended to be surprised: "Your Majesty, you actually brought this with you? We are so lucky."
"Make a fire." The emperor said coldly.
After the fire started, the whole cave instantly became warmer, and the dim light of the fire shone on people's faces, making them look particularly beautiful.
Xu Lingyi quickly dealt with the rabbit, her movements were neat and efficient.
"Your Majesty, it's a pity there's no seasoning. The taste might not be very good. Please just eat it as it is."
Xu Lingyi spoke carefully and handed the whole rabbit to the emperor.
The emperor frowned and said nothing for a long time.
"Are you like this at home too?"
He stared at her for a moment.
"Hmm?" Xu Lingyi tilted her head.
Before she could answer, the emperor's bony hands broke the rabbit in half and placed it on the leaf.
"What are you standing there for?" The emperor glanced at her indifferently.
"Your Majesty, this is not good. You are His Majesty, and I am just your subject... You should eat by yourself."
She hadn't finished speaking yet.
The emperor glanced at her with his cold eyes, "Eat."
Xu Lingyi: “…”
This damn man, can he be a little more normal and not always have such an icy face?
But since that was the case, she didn't refuse.
I have to say that rabbit without seasoning is not delicious, but after all, it is meat and can still fill your stomach.
"Your Majesty, I have made a simple rack. You can put your clothes on it to dry to avoid catching a cold."
After Xu Lingyi finished speaking, she deliberately sneezed a few times, but she was indeed shivering from the cold, and her cold state was not pretended.
She just wanted to show this bastard how considerate and kind she was.
He doesn't like vicious people and says that he values a woman's character, so she shows him kindness.
He frowned, his face slightly gloomy, "You bake first."
"But Your Majesty..."
She wanted to say something, but the emperor glanced at her with his cold eyes.
Xu Lingyi did not refute it anymore.
He did this willingly.
The corners of her mouth rose in her heart.
She seemed to know the character of this dog emperor. He would definitely be soft-hearted and would not tolerate toughness.
"I will turn around."
After he finished speaking, he faced the wall and went to treat his wound.
"Of course I believe in Your Majesty. I have heard of Your Majesty's virtues before."
Actually, it would be better if he didn’t turn around, Xu Lingyi thought.
The emperor didn't say anything, so Xu Lingyi just kept roasting her clothes.
It was extremely quiet at this moment, and Xu Lingyi could clearly hear the sound of burning firewood.
Naturally, she could also hear the sound of her clothes falling to the ground, and I believe the emperor could hear it too.
Xu Lingyi originally wanted to create some accidents to seduce the emperor.
But thinking about the scene in the Imperial Garden that day, this bastard probably wouldn't fall for it.
She just dried the clothes obediently.
But to be honest, even if the emperor didn't look, the situation at this time was a little delicate.
After all, a single man and a single woman were in the same room, which wasn't even a room, it wasn't even a quarter of the size of a room.
Here, there is no one else outside.
The world is so big, and there are only the two of them at this moment.
The two faced the same difficulties and dangers and could only support and rely on each other.
In this situation, people's hearts will unconsciously draw close to each other.
————
By the time both of them had dried their clothes, it was completely dark.
"Your Majesty, let me bandage the wound on your leg for you."
The emperor wanted to refuse, but one of his hands was still unusable, so it was difficult for one person to do it.
He could only nod.
"Use this."
The emperor handed Xu Lingyi a freshly dried undergarment.
She swiftly tore off a corner of it and bandaged the emperor quickly. Her movements were smooth and efficient, without any unnecessary movements.
But her hairband had been lost long ago, and now her long, inky hair was untied and hung in front of her chest.
