"But, obviously, you don't care about me as much as you used to. Jian Ye looked at Rong Qingyi.

Rong Qingyi deliberately avoided Jian Ye's gaze, his gaze was not concealed at all, it seemed that he was thinking about her thoughts at this time while speaking, it was not an easy task to hide his inner thoughts in front of a man like Jian Ye, when he was serious and indifferent, Qingjun's facial features would not lose half of his charm.

Jian Ye looked at Rong Qingyi's gaze that he immediately avoided, sighed slightly in his heart, smiled slightly, and continued half-truthfully: "Thankfully, for the time being, you have no intention of leaving me, in a sense, it seems that you were willing to really become my woman in the first place, it doesn't seem that it was because you wanted to be my wife, but because you didn't have to face the second choice, stay and leave, and you chose the latter in this way." Don't wonder why I know, I can't read minds, but I'm a man, your body gave me the best answer, and you didn't even mean to please me, but just to complete a ritual like a promise. ”

Listening to Jian Ye's words, Rong Qingyi couldn't help but look at Jian Ye, Jian Ye's words were very straightforward, so that she didn't even have time to hide the embarrassment on her face, and she didn't hide the astonishment in her eyes.

Jian Ye looked at Rong Qingyi and smiled faintly, "I will also speak sweet words, and I can also coax you to be happy and obey me as before, but that is a chess piece that I need to use, I have never been a chess piece when you were a chess piece before, and I don't love you, so I won't let you be a chess piece in my eyes, and I won't be a chess piece in the future, because I already like you, put you in my eyes and heart, say some coaxing words, say some sweet words, isn't it boring." That's good, before you left, we still talked together, and occasionally made some small awkwardness, I put you in my eyes and heart. After you left, you were still in my heart, but not in my eyes. I can't control how you treat me, I'll be sad if you're indifferent, but I won't force you, if you feel uncomfortable, you can leave at any time, you don't have to mind how I react. ”

Rong Qingyi didn't speak, but looked away again, breathing lightly.

The sound of horses' hooves outside came in from time to time, and some wind blew into the carriage, although the space in the carriage was not too big, it was not stuffy, and even some shallow coolness, which was very comfortable when blowing through the skin, because the sky was not good, the light in the carriage was a little dim, and the incense burner was faintly bright.

"You joked with Jiang Shiwei that you are very familiar with Lord Yama. Jian Ye didn't seem to want the carriage to fall into silence, so he paused for a moment and continued, "Did that long kneeling in the rain almost kill you?"

Rong Qingyi sighed softly, frowned slightly, did not answer immediately, and once again appeared in her mind the scene of her kneeling on the ground in the rain and begging Jian Ye, in her dreams, in reality, she repeated this picture several times, even if she thought about it at this time, she still felt that there was a wet feeling on her body, and her knees still hurt.

"Yes. Rong Qingyi smiled, a little self-deprecating, her eyes fell quietly on the faint light in the incense burner, and she still didn't look at Jian Ye, although she clearly felt that Jian Ye's eyes had been watching her, "It's also very scary to think about it now, I don't know where I got the courage to kneel for three days and three nights, so that I can just see you, and I can marry into King Jian's mansion for seven or eight years, I have been holding hope, hoping that you can be good to me one day, and now I will not have such firmness." Maybe that long kneeling made me experience life and death, and I no longer dared to be sure of anything and what to look forward to. As you said, when we are together, we may be able to talk, or even make trouble, but one day we are separated, and we are strangers who are happy with each other. One day, you will be the emperor, no matter what you think or providence arranges, a Zhao Jiangxuan has made me shed tears in seven or eight years, exhausted all my sincerity, exhausted all expectations, you become the emperor, there will be harem beauties, I will also fade my face, and it is no longer possible to compete with those beautiful women who continue to appear, whether it is time or appearance, I am destined to be a failure, so, I will still leave when it is time to leave, after a long time, you will forget, those beautiful women will love you as much as I used to be, follow you, you will not be lacking。 ”

Jian Ye nodded, "Maybe, no one can guarantee tomorrow with absolute words, just like I never thought that I would like you before, so it is also possible that one day, I will like other women, your worries are not unreasonable, just like you liked me before, but now you can face me calmly, and even pretend to like me." Okay, then it's just for now, I will pay you and you and me, and you will pay as much as you want. ”

Next, Jian Ye didn't speak again, it seemed that he didn't know what to say next, and it seemed to be a little shallow tired, after all, he didn't sleep last night to deal with all kinds of things, the carriage moved forward quickly and steadily, there were no accidents on the official road, all the way forward calmly, the smell of agarwood was blown in by the wind blowing in from outside the carriage and fell in the corners of the carriage, Jian Ye closed his eyes, his face was calm, leaning on the carriage to take a nap, he couldn't see his heart at all from his complexion, and his facial features were calm and lonely.

The carriage suddenly quieted down, Rong Qingyi relaxed her breathing, because it was too quiet, the quietness made her feel that even her slightly undulating breathing would expose the ups and downs of her inner emotions, and this kind of breathing that had to slow down made her a little depressed and tired, and occasionally glanced at Jian Ye, he kept his eyes closed and rested.

The wind was a little faintly cool, Rong Qingyi had a rest last night, and he didn't feel sleepy at this time, and then glanced at Jian Ye who closed his eyes and rested, his breath was very calm, his eyelashes were calm, it seemed that he was indeed resting quietly, hesitating, Rong Qingyi gently took the thin blanket on the side and gently put it on Jian Ye's body.

"Thank you. Jian Ye said calmly, his voice was low, his eyes did not open, and he continued to close his eyes and rest.

Rong Qingyi was startled, and subconsciously replied, "It's okay." ”

"You don't have to push yourself. Jian Ye's voice sounded again, but his eyes were still closed, his breath was steady, and his voice was low, "You don't have to work hard in front of me to be a you who is not yours, what I like is you, not what you say, you don't have to be afraid of me being angry, if I like you, I am definitely not angry with you but only with myself, I will only be angry with myself." ”

Rong Qingyi was stunned, because Jian Ye had her eyes closed, so she could look at Jian Ye and speak with more confidence, "I didn't, I'm just afraid that the noise will make you rest." ”

Jian Ye smiled slightly, his laughter was indifferent, and it seemed that the slightly cool water fell in his ears, "I didn't sleep, there are a lot of things to think about, this road seems to be peaceful, but the situation in the two countries where the capital and Jian Ning are located can happen at any time, I have to take into account every step, I just close my eyes and rest, I still have to think about the things I should think, so that you don't have to deliberately avoid my gaze." ”

Rong Qingyi bit her lip and thought of a question that was not very relevant at this time: it seems that since she knew Jian Ye to the present, Jian Ye rarely calls Jian Ning's sister, usually by her first name, and in his dreams, he even dealt with this half-sister because of himself.

The sky gradually changed from bright to dark, in fact, it was not dusk, it was getting worse and worse, and even rained, because of the wind, the rain was obliquely falling, and from time to time there were rain threads drifting in from outside the carriage window, occasionally wetting the curtains, and occasionally drifting in a few threads from the gaps.

It seemed that someone was talking, Rong Qingyi vaguely heard a voice ringing not far from her ears, the voice was somewhat familiar, it was Jinxi's voice, and then Jian Ye's voice.

"Master, there is our inn in front, do you want to go in and rest?" Jin Xi said softly, glancing at Rong Qingyi, who was asleep in Jian Ye's arms, afraid that the sound would disturb her, "It's been three hours since I left, I'm afraid that Madame is also a little hungry, and she just had breakfast when she left." ”

Jian Ye nodded, "Let the people at the inn prepare the meal, take a look at the sky, if the wind and rain don't stop, just rest at the inn for one night and then leave, things are not in a hurry, there is no need to rush to the road, it is all official roads, as long as the daytime itinerary is not disturbed, there is enough time." ”

"Yes. Jinxi answered softly and quietly exited the carriage.

Rong Qingyi felt that she should be asleep, opened her eyes slightly, her vision was a little dark, and when she moved, she realized that she was leaning on Jian Ye's arms, with the thin blanket she had put on Jian Ye before, Jian Ye's arm was holding her, and the other hand seemed to be holding a document to look at again.

"Woke you up?" Jian Ye asked gently, watching Rong Qingyi sit up straight in his arms, a little embarrassed to straighten out his clothes, a slight dizziness flashed on his face, pretending not to see, and smiled, "You slept peacefully, and I was just about to wake you up, in front of us was an inn in King Jian's Mansion, it was not good, and it was raining again, thinking about resting in the inn for a night." ”

Rong Qingyi was really embarrassed, she didn't remember when she fell asleep, and how she slept like this, and muttered: "Well, it's okay, it's time to wake up, and go back to sleep, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep at night, and I'm a little hungry and thirsty." ”

Jian Ye handed her a cup of tea, "Jin Xi asked Lianxiang to make tea and send it over, although it is not as good as you, you can still quench your thirst." ”

Rong Qingyi didn't dare to look at Jian Ye, thinking that she would not stay with Jian Ye before, and in the blink of an eye, she slept for a while in someone's arms, and even the tea was still in the back carriage to find the lotus fragrance and send it over, which should have been what she was supposed to do.
