After the people in the room left, only Murong Xuanji and Xuanyuan Hao were left, and their eyes looked at each other, but they quickly moved away, and the atmosphere in the room was a little awkward.

"You've just woken up, so let's lie down and rest for a while." Murong Xuanji looked for words and spoke, wanting to go over and help him sleep, but Xuanyuan Hao held his hand, Murong Xuanji wanted to withdraw his hand, but Xuanyuan Hao pulled it tightly, and she gave up.

"Are you mad at me?" Although Murong Xuanji didn't look like there was any expression on her face, Xuanyuan Hao could still feel that she was angry, which was completely different from how she felt when she treated herself gently just now.

"What do you say?" Murong Xuanji looked at Xuanyuan Hao coldly, pulled off his hand vigorously, looked at him coldly and said, "You should know that I hate others to lie to me the most, do you have anything to hide from me." Murong Xuanji looked directly at Xuanyuan Hao, planning to give him another chance in his heart, hoping that he would be honest and honest.

"I-" Xuanyuan Hao was now very sure that Murong Xuanji was really angry, and he was a little hesitant whether to say it.

Murong Xuanji took a deep breath, and the only remaining shred of reason made her turn around and close the door of the room before returning to Xuanyuan Hao, looking at him coldly, and questioning him: "What am I to you?" Why do you keep hiding so many things from me? Don't you have any trust in me? ”

"No, it's not." Xuanyuan Hao was eager to explain, but was interrupted by Xuanyuan Hao.

"Did you arrange your poisoning?" Murong Xuanji asked Xuanyuan Hao directly: "Did you and your uncle arrange this?" ”

Hearing Murong Xuanji's affirmative questioning, Xuanyuan Hao knew that he couldn't hide it anymore, so he nodded and admitted, "Yes, the poisoning was planned by me and my uncle, but I really didn't know about the killers that night, and I suddenly decided when I saw those killers." ”

"Why didn't you tell me? I don't really know which of your statements is true and which is false. Murong Xuanji looked at Xuanyuan Hao in disbelief, and no longer trusted his words so completely, "Even if you don't know about those killers in advance, what about poisoning?" If you hadn't been prepared for it for a long time, how could you have been poisoned? ”

Facing Murong Xuanji's questioning, Xuanyuan Hao just sighed slightly, calmed his emotions and said: "There have always been people who want to attack you and me before, and have always wanted to prevent us from rescuing your father and them, although we are lucky to escape every time, but it is impossible to be safe and sound every time, so when the killer appeared that night, I will plan it, I will be injured and poisoned, and then the matter of saving people will be handed over to Leng Fengran and the Eighth Prince to help." ”

"You can think of so much, someone must help from it, then this person who helps can't think of a second one except the codeword, so the codeword doesn't know if your poisoning is fake?" Murong Xuanji held back the anger in her heart and asked.

"He doesn't know." Xuanyuan Hao opened his mouth to explain the code: "The fewer people who know about this matter, the better, so only my uncle and I know." However, I had already instructed the Secret Word before, and if anything happened to me, I would take the letter I gave him and go to Brother Eight. ”

Murong Xuanji took a deep breath, listening to the arrangements Xuanyuan Hao said, he felt like a fool who was kept in the dark, thinking of the worries and fears since those days, and the tears secretly shed when there was a person, Murong Xuanji couldn't forgive Xuanyuan Hao's deception for a while.

"Have you considered my feelings?" Murong Xuanji clenched his fists and asked Xuanyuan Hao with the anger in his heart tightly, "Even if you have these arrangements, why can't even I say it?" Do you even believe me? ”

"It's not that I don't believe you." Xuanyuan Hao looked at Murong Xuanji's body trembling slightly because of anger, and immediately reached out to grab her, and explained softly, "There will definitely be many people who doubt whether my poisoning is true or false, although the fewer people who know, the better, if you know in advance that my poisoning is fake, then you won't show such sadness and sadness, and you won't let people outside know that all this is fake." ”

Although Xuanyuan Hao's explanation could be understood, Murong Xuanji still couldn't accept it in his heart, and once again broke away from Xuanyuan Hao's hand and said in confusion: "You let me calm down alone, I can't tell whether I should believe what I said to you now." Murong Xuanji turned around and left the room without hesitation.

"Miss, it's so late, aren't you going back to your room?" Baoqing walked into the study with hot tea, put it in her hand and watched her continue to read the book, as if she had no intention of going back to the house to rest, and said with some worry: "Miss, if you have something unhappy to say, don't hold it in your heart and get sick." ”

"Baoqing, you go down and rest first, I want to stay alone for a while." Murong Xuanji kept her head down and looked at the book, but she was very irritable and couldn't see a single word in her eyes.

Baoqing wanted to speak, but saw Xuanyuan Hao walk in and make a silent gesture towards himself, Baoqing nodded and quietly left the house.

Murong Xuanji had been immersed in her thoughts, thinking that Baoqing had left, and she didn't notice that Xuanyuan Hao had been watching her for a long time standing in the study.

Thinking of Xuanyuan Hao's concealment from him, Murong Xuanji didn't know whether he should accept his explanation, forgive him, or continue to be angry. Distraught, she closed the book and wanted to go out to the yard to relax, but as soon as she got up, she saw Xuanyuan Hao standing in front of her, looking at herself apologetically.

"I haven't decided to forgive you yet." Murong Xuanji blurted out and said, seeing Xuanyuan Hao's far-fetched smile, she also felt very uncomfortable in her heart.

"I know your character, and I know that your anger will not go down so quickly, but it's late, even if you want to be angry, keep it for tomorrow, I know that you are very hard and tired during this time for me and Murong Mansion, I hope you can sleep peacefully and have a good rest." Xuanyuan Hao said softly.

"If you care about me, if you care about me, you won't hide it from me for so long, make me worry and sad for so long." Murong Xuanji looked at Xuanyuan Hao coldly, and did not soften his heart because of his apology and concern.

"I know I didn't do it right, but if I had to do it all over again, I would still choose to do it." Xuanyuan Hao looked at Murong Xuanji calmly and said, "Since I plan to do this, I must do it seamlessly, so I can't take any risks." I know that even if you know that everything is fake, you will cooperate with me well, but the other party should not be underestimated, and if we are not careful, we will be very passive. ”

Murong Xuanji really wanted to ignore Xuanyuan Hao's explanation like other women, but she still couldn't do it. She had accepted Xuanyuan Hao's explanation in her heart, and she was slowly forgiving him, but on the face of it, she didn't plan to let Xuanyuan Hao know, and she wanted to make it difficult for him, who let him lie to herself for so long.

"Okay, even if what you say is true, but what about my feelings? Have you ever considered my feelings? Murong Xuanji asked Xuanyuan Hao with a serious face, "Have you ever wondered how I've been living these days?" Have you ever thought that I am also a woman, and I will be afraid and sad when I see my husband in trouble? ”

"I'm sorry." Apart from apologizing, Xuanyuan Hao didn't know what else he could say now. Although he had been in a coma all this time, he could clearly hear what Murong Xuanji said to him, so now he felt particularly sorry.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, how much are you going to say sorry to me?" When Murong Xuanji heard Xuanyuan Hao's apology, she didn't know why her mood became extremely bad, in fact, compared to Xuanyuan Hao's apology, she wanted to hear him say something true in her heart.

Seeing Murong Xuanji's slightly excited look, Xuanyuan Hao hugged her tightly in his arms without hesitation, and said distressedly: "I know that you have worked very hard and are very sad during this time, I am really distressed, it is that I have not thought it through, which makes you sad and sad, I will not be like this again in the future, and I will not make you sad and sad again." ”

"You've always promised me that, but it broke my heart every time." Murong Xuanji said aggrievedly, thinking of the sadness of this time, tears rolled in her eyes, but she forced back the tears.

"The Fourth Prince is back, you know." Xuanyuan Hao's sudden words made Murong Xuanji a little inexplicable, and he didn't understand how he could divert the topic to the four princes, and looked at him a little strangely.

"It's the Eighth Prince who told you!" Murong Xuanji thought about it for a while, he had been with Xuanyuan Hao since he woke up, except for the time when he sent his family back before, there was no one else except Xuanyuan Jue told him.

Xuanyuan Hao nodded, and said without denial: "Yes, I was surprised when I heard this, but I can also understand that now the eldest prince is still unconscious, and it is natural for the queen to miss the fourth prince." What's more, I think my father also knew in his heart that the fourth prince was innocent, and he didn't order the beheading before, but exiled him, which was also secretly open. ”

"What's your purpose in saying this suddenly?" Murong Xuanji asked Xuanyuan Hao with a serious face, "Are you suspecting that the queen wants to use the four princes and support the four princes to be the crown prince?" ”

Xuanyuan Hao did not deny Murong Xuanji's speculation, and looked at her with the same serious face and said, "Do you suspect that the person who attacked us before was Chu Wanwan?" ”

Murong Xuanji nodded and admitted, "That's right, I did suspect her before, and she also had this suspicion." But the Imperial Doctor said that there was a rare poison, and it was not the poison of the Beiming Kingdom, so I would suspect her, because she was the only one around us who was not from the Beiming Kingdom. ”

"But have you ever thought that we have been in the Western Qi Kingdom for so many years, and we know a lot, if it is the poison of the Western Qi Kingdom, how can you and Leng Fengran not know it." Xuanyuan Hao calmly analyzed Murong Xuanji, "Although Chu Wanwan and us have a hostile relationship, and they have been unfavorable to us several times, I don't think she has such a smart mind to poison us. ”

"So you suspect that those killers are not Chu Wanwan? Who's that? The Three Princes? Murong Xuanji looked at Xuanyuan Hao and didn't speak, and suddenly thought of another person in his mind, and asked a little incredulously: "Do you suspect that it is the queen?" ”

"I never believe that the queen is truly repentant, and she also has her purpose in joining forces with me before, but she was able to win back her father's heart in such a quick time and bring the four princes back to the palace, which makes me even more suspicious that the queen is not as easy to deal with as we imagined." Xuanyuan Hao said with a solemn expression.

Murong Xuanji listened to Xuanyuan Hao's speculation and suspicion with some indifference, and asked in a cold voice, "So what are you going to do next?" ”

Hearing the displeasure in Murong Xuanji's tone, Xuanyuan Hao looked at her with some surprise, in the past, as long as he talked about these things, Murong Xuanji always calmly analyzed with him.

"Okay, it's late, let's not talk about that, can you go back to the house with me to rest?" Xuanyuan Hao didn't say much more, and changed the topic to coax her to go back with him.

"You go back and rest first, I haven't finished the book yet, I want to finish the book and go back." Murong Xuanji returned to his desk and picked up the book to read.

"Since you refuse to rest, then I will accompany you here." Xuanyuan Hao took out a book from the shelf, sat on the chair next to him and began to look seriously, it seemed that he was advancing and retreating with Murong Xuanji, she didn't sleep, and he didn't sleep either.

Although Murong Xuanji ignored Xuanyuan Hao on the surface, she still peeked at him from time to time, seeing that he was more engrossed in reading than herself, she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, thinking that he had just woken up and not much of it, and his body's strength had not fully recovered, and she was a little worried about his body, and all kinds of emotions were tangled in her heart, making her not know what to do.

"Alright, let's go back and rest." Murong Xuanji finally couldn't turn a blind eye to him, and was worried about his body in his heart, closed the book, got up, walked to his side, took his book and said, "Why don't you care about your body at all, what if you fall ill again?" ”

Although Murong Xuanji's tone was a little unkind, Xuanyuan Hao still heard her concern for herself from her unhappy tone, a smile suddenly appeared on her face, and she said with a smile: "I'm more likely to get sick without you by my side, so don't think about leaving me." If I don't leave, you won't forsake it, that's your promise to me. ”

"I haven't finished the rest of the words, if you lie to me and make me sad, even if you don't leave, I will still abandon you." Murong Xuanji said angry words.

"No, I promise never again." Xuanyuan Hao assured Murong Xuanji again and again that she finally made her mood better.

"I'll listen to what you say for the time being, and it will depend on your performance in the future." Murong Xuanji walked out of the study proudly.

Xuanyuan Hao immediately chased after her, took her hand and said sweetly: "Don't be angry, lady, I will be afraid, husband." ”

Xuanyuan Hao's flattering appearance made Murong Xuanji couldn't help but sneer, and she couldn't pretend to be angry anymore, she just glared at her coquettishly, and didn't break away from her hand, letting him lead her back in the direction of the bedroom.
