I knelt on the ground, my head almost sunk into the crack of the ground. In my heart, I was madly complaining: Tsk, I have seen all kinds of storms and waves, isn’t it just acting? Who can’t do it!
"Your Majesty, I am wrong in a thousand ways. It's all my fault! I was corrupted by my father since I was young. I didn't know the importance of my words and actions, and I offended Your Majesty. Please forgive me this time because of my young age and ignorance!" I said with tears in my eyes, but I was laughing in my heart: I have acting skills at the level of an Oscar winner, I don't believe I can't fool you!
Li Heng remained silent, but the look in his eyes made me feel creepy. It was as if he could see through all my thoughts.
I secretly raised my head and looked at him out of the corner of my eye. I saw that his brows were slightly furrowed, as if he was thinking about something.
"Your Majesty..." I was about to say something, but was interrupted by him.
"Look up." His voice was deep and magnetic, with an irresistible majesty.
I didn't dare to resist, so I raised my head and met his gaze.
At that moment, I felt like my heart skipped a beat.
His eyes were deep and sharp, as if they could see through people's hearts. I felt a little uneasy when he looked at me, and subconsciously tried to avoid his gaze, but he grabbed my chin.
"Look at me." His tone was domineering and powerful, leaving no room for doubt.
I was forced to look him in the eye, my heart beating faster and faster. His eyes were like a burning flame, burning my whole body.
"You are very smart and interesting." He suddenly said with a hint of amusement in his tone, "You know, I don't like having my authority challenged."
My heart tightened, knowing that he was warning me.
"Your Majesty, I know I was wrong." I said quickly, "I will never dare to do it again."
"It's good that you admit your mistakes." He released my chin, and a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "Don't worry, I won't really blame you. After all, you came from me..."
He stopped talking before he finished speaking, and his eyes fell behind me.
I was confused and looked back subconsciously.
Li Rui was wearing a white brocade robe and holding a folding fan, walking slowly towards me. He had the same gentle smile as always, but for some reason, I always felt that there seemed to be something else in his smile today.
"Brother, I came at the perfect time." Li Rui walked up to Li Heng and said with a smile, "It seems that I have disturbed your good deeds."
Li Heng's face suddenly turned gloomy, and he said in a cold tone, "What are you doing here?"
"I heard that the emperor summoned Miss Lin today, so I came to see her." Li Rui said, his eyes fell on me, and the smile on his mouth deepened, "Miss Lin, long time no see."
I felt uneasy when he looked at me, and I always felt that there was something strange about him today.
"Your Highness, your servant is here to see you." I bowed quickly.
"No need to be polite." Li Rui said with a smile, "Miss Lin, there is no need to be polite."
Li Heng glanced at Li Rui coldly and said in an unhappy tone: "Since you are here, let's go together."
After saying that, he stood up and walked out of the pavilion first.
I was feeling uneasy, not knowing what Li Heng was up to. And the look in Li Rui's eyes made me feel more and more uneasy.
Could it be that these two brothers want to join forces to deal with me?
