Chapter 992 Previous Life (6)
He raised his lips, his smile showing a bit of evil, and said slowly: "It seems that the emperor has neglected the queen."
Bai Lu widened her eyes. Xie Jingxing's words were too presumptuous. However, she did not dare to drag Shen Miao away directly, lest Shen Miao make any noise and alarm others. She would be in trouble even if she had no words to speak.
After Shen Miao finished drinking, she staggered and picked up the wine jar, poured a large bowl full of it, handed it to Xie Jingxing, and said, "You drink too!"
"Why should I drink?" Xie Jingxing was puzzled.
"You and I share the same suffering!" Shen Miao said.
"Who shares your suffering?" Xie Jingxing laughed. However, Shen Miao had already raised the wine bowl and fed it to him.
Bai Lu was horrified. This was too ambiguous! Tie Yi was also extremely surprised, but Xie Jingxing didn't say anything. He wouldn't make a move.
Xie Jingxing was unexpectedly poured a bowl of wine. When he pushed Shen Miao away, a lot of the wine spilled on his clothes. However, looking at Shen Miao, he finally smiled with satisfaction. She said, "You and I have a bowl of wine of affection. When you return triumphantly, come and watch the fireworks with me!"
Xie Jingxing felt that today was truly inexplicable. It turned out that women lost their rationality when they were drunk. Even the empress, who usually looked dignified and graceful, was now a completely different person.
"Your Majesty, please ask the Emperor to come and see you." He straightened his clothes.
Shen Miao said sadly, “I’ve never watched fireworks with him before.”
Xie Jingxing stared at the woman opposite him. She lowered her head slightly, the corners of her mouth raised, but her eyes were bitter. He inexplicably softened a little and said, "Okay, okay, I promise you."
Shen Miao's eyes lit up, and she looked at him and said, "Then it's confirmed."
Xie Jingxing nodded.
Shen Miao thought for a moment, then shook her head and said, “Words are not enough, we need a token of our loyalty.” She then began to touch the hairpins on her hair.
Bai Lu was stunned, thinking to herself that this was not good. If the Queen's things were in Xie Jingxing's possession, he would be accused of adultery. She was worried that Shen Miao would give him a handkerchief or hairpin. Suddenly, she saw the red string around Shen Miao's wrist, and an idea came to her. She said, "My Queen, your red string is very good!"
Shen Miao's eyes fell on the red rope, and with a thought in her mind, she quickly untied it, took Xie Jingxing's hand, and tied it up carefully.
Xie Jingxing's gaze fell on her slightly curled eyelashes, which were wet, as if mixed with the winter chill and slightly moist, inexplicably making people feel a little itchy in their hearts.
Shen Miao tied it for him and smiled at him: "This is a token from me to you. Take it as a token and wait for your triumphant return!"
"Thank you for the gift, Her Majesty." Xie Jingxing smiled nonchalantly, "But I don't have any tokens to give Her Majesty. How about giving Her Majesty a wish?"
“Wish?” Shen Miao looked at him.
"If we meet again in triumph, I can grant your Majesty a wish. If your wish is what I can fulfill, I will do my best to fulfill it."
Shen Miao said: “It’s a deal!”
"It's a deal."
With a loud "boom", a corner of the sky was once again illuminated by the brilliant fireworks. The two of them looked at it together, and they seemed to have a tacit understanding and were extremely in tune with each other.
Bai Lu was also stunned.
Fireworks are fleeting, but some things will never disappear, like this night.
When Shen Miao woke up again, she felt a splitting headache. While rubbing her forehead, she stood up and walked to the table, saying, "I slept for such a long time."
Bai Lu brought her some hot soup and said, "Your Majesty drank too much yesterday. Sober up first."
"Drank too much?" Shen Miao paused: "I didn't drink much at the palace banquet."
Bai Lu felt a little guilty and said, "Maybe the wine at the palace banquet was too strong."
Shen Miao nodded, then sighed, “This palace’s habit of not being able to remember anything when drunk really hasn’t changed over the years, but it’s also been a while since I’ve been drunk.”
Bai Lu nodded, only to hear Shen Miao look at her empty wrist again: "Why is this red rope gone again?"
Bai Lu whispered, "Maybe... it was lost."
Shen Miao sighed: "It really won't last long."
The sun was blazing, and the departing troops were at the city gate.
The young man in the lead was on a majestic horse, with a lazy smile on his face, but his eyes were so cold that people dared not look at him directly.
"Master, everything is ready." Tieyi said.
Xie Jingxing glanced behind him. Once he left the city gate, his future would be completely different. It also meant a complete break with the past and no ties between them.
You have to leave eventually.
"There's nothing here worth lingering on," the man in white beside him said, fanning himself, "and it has nothing to do with you either."
"Maybe they're all hoping that Third Brother will never come back." The young man in the pine green robe smiled and looked ahead: "No matter what, we're finally going home."
"uncertain."
The two of them looked at the man in purple together.
Xie Jingxing lowered his head, his gaze falling on his wrist, where a red rope was tied. The end of the rope was tied neatly and carefully, and it seemed so secure that it would never come undone.
"Isn't this something women wear?" Ji Yushu asked, "Why are you wearing this?"
"After drinking someone's farewell wine, I owe them a wish." Xie Jingxing said, "I'll pay it back when I get back."
He retracted his gaze and raised his whip: "Get up!"
Set off. ?
