The winter night breeze is absolutely refreshing.
The cold wind blew away the depression in Xiao Li's heart. He exhaled heavily and his mood calmed down.
However, the cold wind was blowing too much, and his brain was easily frozen, so when he turned around to leave, he almost bumped into Rong Qing.
He was strong to begin with, and after putting on the silver armor, he looked even taller and more majestic.
Xiao Li was wondering why he was getting so close, but the next moment he realized the wind was coming from his side.
He stood there deliberately, using his body to shield her from the cold wind.
It was just a cold breeze. She wasn't so fragile that she couldn't withstand the wind.
As the thought came to my mind, I couldn't help laughing.
She is such a... bitch...
Yu Gong: Rong Qing is her subject. It is only natural for a subject to use his body as a shield to protect the emperor.
Personally: Rong Qing is half her lover, and it is natural for him to protect the one he loves.
But her first thought was that she could withstand the wind and rain and did not need anyone to protect her. She felt that his action of standing here to block the wind seemed pretentious.
It was clearly just a simple action, and maybe Rong Qing himself didn't think anything of it, but her first thought was resistance and rejection.
This is why she can't fit in with this world.
Perhaps it is because I have never received pure kindness, so when others are kind to me, I cannot accept it calmly. My first reaction is to put up my whole body defense to prove that I don’t need it.
She is Xiao Li and only wants to be Xiao Li.
Whether it is loneliness or scars, they all belong to her.
The lonely king?
It's ridiculous. That's a poor guy who has nowhere to go. He puts on armor layer by layer and finally makes himself indestructible.
No one can hurt herself, and similarly, no one can touch her.
"His Majesty?"
Rong Qing, who had always maintained a proper demeanor, frowned the moment he saw Xiao Li's smile: "What's wrong with you?"
She was smiling, but that smile looked so heartbreaking, and she almost couldn't stand just now. Was she feeling unwell?
"fine."
Xiao Li waved his hands, instantly regaining his composure. He curled his lips and said sarcastically, "I thought of a joke."
She turned and walked down the city wall, only then she realized that she had been standing for too long and her body was very cold.
I originally wanted to go back to the bedroom, but I turned around and went to Longchi.
They walked all the way to the Dragon Bathing Pool. Xiao Li had already walked in when he heard footsteps behind him and felt something was wrong. He turned around and saw Rong Qing still following him.
She raised an eyebrow: "Are you sure you want to continue?"
Rong Qing was worried about Xiao Li and didn't react for a moment. When asked, he realized that this was where the empress bathed.
Suddenly panicked: "I am sorry."
As he said this, he retreated.
"stop."
Xiao Li called out to him, and Rong Qing took a half-step back to the door, with one foot still inside. He raised his head awkwardly and said, "Your Majesty, please give your orders."
Xiao Li glanced at his foot, which he would rather be uncomfortable than retract, raised his eyebrows, and raised his hand: "Come here."
The tall general paused slightly, then walked in with heavy steps.
Seeing that the empress did not put down her hand, he raised his hand to take her hand, but was avoided.
After hesitating for a moment, he knelt on one knee and turned his face over. The angle was just right for the empress's hand to touch his forehead.
The brave general willingly submitted to his emperor.
Xiao Li was satisfied. Although he was a little boring, he was not a complete blockhead.
She tapped his brow with her fingertips: "I promised you last time, why haven't you mentioned it yet?"
Rong Qing's cheeks were cold and numb from the night wind, but as those slender fingers slid across them, it was like magma dripping onto an iceberg, burning hot and scorching, spreading and penetrating all the way, instantly dispelling the chill around him.
"I was unable to return within a month's time, and I dare not ask Your Majesty for a reward."
Xiao Li raised his eyebrows: "You are really not greedy at all."
As she was about to withdraw her hand, Rong Qing suddenly raised his hand, grasped her palm, and gently placed it against his face.
Looking up, his silver pupils were filled with affection, but his trembling voice betrayed his inner excitement and anxiety: "I am very greedy."
"I want to live, to achieve great things, to hold great power, to hold a high position and receive generous salaries, to become famous and to restore the glory of the Rong family..."
"I am very greedy and want everything. I have coveted everything that countless people seek but cannot obtain. But the only thing I dare not covet is your grace..."
"I am a broken body, picked up from the mud by Your Majesty. This life belongs to Your Majesty. I should have been loyal, but greed gave rise to delusions."
"Your Majesty, allowing me to love you is already a gift..."
Rong Qing was so emotional that he couldn't continue speaking for a moment. Perhaps he himself didn't know what he wanted to say.
He has always been loyal and has been driven by Your Majesty all his life. He has always put himself in a low position, and after falling in love with Your Majesty, he wishes to be humble to the dust.
Even though His Majesty already had three other people, Rong Qing never thought that if they could do it, why couldn't he?
He was able to remain as calm as a rock when Lou Yan and Song Junzhan were jealous, not because he was calm and didn't care, but because he didn't feel he had the right to be jealous.
Your Majesty knew his feelings and allowed him to serve by your side.
He was truly satisfied that he could offer everything to be loyal to the emperor and protect his beloved.
Xiao Li suddenly felt his palms burning, and the scorching temperature spread from his palms to his heart.
Xiao Li was stunned for a moment, not knowing whether it was his skin or his burning affection that was burning.
Rong Qing's attitude is humble, but his feelings are indeed passionate.
The raging flames finally found a gap and swept through, almost drowning Xiao Li.
Xiao Li wanted to pull his hand back, but failed.
She looked over and saw Rong Qing looking a little unsure, but he still held her firmly and held her hand against his eyes.
He knew that His Majesty liked these mutated eyes.
"His Majesty......"
He couldn't learn to seduce as boldly as Lou Yan, nor was he as gentle and tender as Prime Minister Song. He just clumsily wanted to let His Majesty know that he could do it.
Everything he has belongs to Your Majesty.
Xiao Li didn't know why he called him just now. Maybe he just wanted to tease him, but now he was really fascinated by him.
Imagine a huge and mighty white tiger king. It is majestic and capable of killing all around, but it only puts away its claws in front of you and brings its furry head close to you to ask for a touch.
Even if you are not a plush lover, you can't refuse it at this moment.
Xiao Li withdrew his hand and turned to walk towards the hot spring.
Rong Qing remained in a half-kneeling position, his loss visible to the naked eye, but that was all he was missing.
The empress paused slightly, and a teasing voice came from inside: "My majestic general, can you serve me in the bath?"
Rong Qing suddenly looked up, and the empress's figure had disappeared.
His head was buzzing with intense emotion, and for a moment he didn't know if he had heard it wrong, but the sudden surge in his heart made it impossible for him to take a step back.
"Your Majesty... obeys!"
