Xu Lingyi was thinking about what to do.
In fact, if she jumps down, she believes that she has a talisman with her, which can bless her luck and protect her from poison.
These snakes should leave here immediately and the emperor will be out of danger.
Or use a powerful knockout drug to knock out these poisonous snakes instantly.
These are the golden fingers in her bag.
After much consideration, Xu Lingyi finally chose the former option.
"You should leave quickly." The emperor spoke again, his brows furrowed.
Xu Lingyi's eyes were firm, and she shook her head: "No."
"Your Majesty, I will jump down to attract the attention of these poisonous snakes. You will then take the opportunity to run away."
"You! Are you stupid?"
The emperor was indescribably shocked. He felt as if something was blocking his throat, which was uncomfortable and painful.
She was obviously an extremely weak woman, but at this moment she was so resolute.
He wondered why he had been prejudiced against her in the past.
The emperor forced himself to keep a straight face, a frost covering his face.
He shook his head again, rejecting her silently and coldly.
"I don't need you to go this far, and I don't need you to die. These are all poisonous snakes. If any one bites you, you will die. Go away."
He spoke, his voice trembling slightly.
Xu Lingyi also shook her head, her eyes clear as she looked straight at him.
The moment she jumped into the deep pit, the emperor could not describe the feeling in his heart, as if something had hit his heart hard.
His fingertips trembled slightly under his sleeves.
"you……"
His throat was dry and he suddenly forgot to breathe.
She and I are going to die here today.
"Your Majesty, run." After Xu Lingyi jumped down, the poisonous snakes did not wrap around her.
She saw that the emperor was still standing there, motionless, just staring at her.
Xu Lingyi sighed in her heart. Why did this dog emperor look so stupid? It almost made it impossible for her to continue her performance.
She could only pull him up and run.
But the poisonous snakes did not catch up.
Even until they climbed out of the deep pit covered in mud, the poisonous snakes just stared at them motionlessly.
The venomous snake's eyes were terrifying, but at this moment it seemed stupid.
The two ran far away until they reached an open space and stopped only when they were out of breath.
Xu Lingyi lay on the ground, her eyes looking up at the blue sky, she was still trying to catch her breath.
The same thing happened to the emperor. Both of them felt deeply grateful after escaping death.
Xu Lingyi gasped and asked, "Your Majesty, why didn't you run just now? You just stood there like an idiot. This is not like you, Your Majesty. I am so worried."
She tilted her head and looked at him.
But the emperor just looked up at the sky and didn't dare to look at her face.
She might not have noticed that their hands were still holding each other.
The emperor knew it, but he didn't let her go, nor did he answer her. Instead, he changed the subject and asked.
"Why did you jump down just now?"
His dark eyes were slightly red, as if hiding a strange emotion.
"You are His Majesty, the ruler of a country. Of course I must save you." Xu Lingyi smiled faintly and gave her reasons.
"Is it because of my identity?"
The emperor then stared at her for a moment. Her hair was wet with sweat from running just now, and her black hair stuck to her cheeks.
There was a complicated look in his eyes, and he was not satisfied with her answer.
When Xu Lingyi saw his deep eyes, she knew that she had done the right thing this time.
This bastard is really soft-hearted and doesn't respond to hardship. She had already seen that. He seemed to have never had any contact with young women.
So even though he has a bad temper, he is easier to deceive.
For example, now, she sacrificed herself to save him once, and with a little trickery, he was deceived by her and fell in love with her.
Xu Lingyi planned to add fuel to the fire.
She pretended to be hesitant and her eyes were a little evasive, but she didn't say a word.
The emperor lowered his eyes and stared into hers. "If it's because of my status, but we are in this abyss, I am no longer the emperor, and you are no longer a subject. Why would you risk your own life to save me?"
His usually cold and arrogant voice had softened a lot at this moment.
"Look at me and tell the truth." For some reason, he was stubborn and wanted her answer, his eyes sharp.
Maybe he himself doesn't know what he wants to hear.
Xu Lingyi was stared at by his deep eyes, and was slightly distracted. "Your servant... Your servant does not want you to die. If you die, I will be the only one left here. I don't want that."
"If you're here alone, don't you have to die? If you're alive, maybe you can get out one day and continue to be your general's daughter in the future."
The emperor continued to ask.
"But I want to go out with His Majesty." Xu Lingyi said.
The emperor's eyes were as dark as ink, and he looked at her without blinking. The coldness he had when they first met that day was no longer in his eyes. He finally got the answer he wanted to hear.
"Then let's go out together." The emperor raised the corners of his lips and looked at her deeply with tenderness.
"Your Majesty, why didn't those snakes chase us just now?"
Xu Lingyi asked deliberately tentatively.
The emperor didn't know why, but they were not far away from the snakes, and when Xu Lingyi jumped down, they showed no aggression towards them.
"Maybe we are just lucky?"
The emperor couldn't explain it either.
Xu Lingyi smiled and said, "Perhaps they know that Your Majesty is the True Dragon Emperor, so noble that they dare not approach."
Xu Lingyi deliberately complimented him.
"Are you also afraid of flattery like others?" The emperor's brows relaxed and he looked at her with a smile, "Let's go, let's go back."
