Chapter 68: The Thief Couple
Leng Yixiu took a long time to digest that sentence, in fact, when he heard the conversation between the seventh princess and the emperor in the main hall without leaving, he had a guess in his heart, but that guess was too crazy for him to dare to think about it, and at this moment, Rong Xi actually said it.
And it's said lightly!
Looking at her calm and calm appearance, he suddenly didn't know how to spit out his breath, which he had been holding on, as if he was exerting a fierce force, but a fist hit the cotton.
Rong Xi was a little puzzled, her thinking is modern, much more extraordinary and free than these ancients, loving herself is that person's own business, not loving herself, it is her own business, what does it have to do with others? What's more, the other party is still a woman.
But when she saw Leng Yixiu standing there, she seemed to be frozen, motionless, and her body also exuded a cold aura, she slowly stood up, walked lightly in front of him and said, "Hey, what's wrong with you?" It can't be jealous, right? ”
The irritability in Leng Yixiu's heart passed, and when Rong Xi asked like this, he also felt a little unspeakably stupid, looking at her raised face, her skin was as delicate as thin porcelain, her eyebrows were picturesque, bathed in golden sunlight, her eyes were like mist fading away from the full glow of the sky, and the corners of her mouth were upturned, with a faint smile.
"Hmph," Leng Yixiu looked at her smile, and his mood was inexplicably much better, but he refused to admit it, and said sourly: "Your peach blossom luck is really strong." ”
Rong Xi listened to his tone and felt angry and funny, but he didn't want to dwell on this issue with him anymore, "What's the matter with the emperor summoning you?" ”
"It's still a matter of the former prince," Leng Yixiu was successfully diverted from the topic, "It has been confirmed that it is poisoning, a team of soldiers from the confidential office of the capital disappeared last night, and there are ...... A young talent also disappeared, so these things were handed over to the secret office of the capital to investigate. ”
He focused on the words "young talent", and carefully sounded the sound of grinding teeth.
"Oh?" Rong Xi pretended not to hear it, her eyes narrowed, like two sharp needles, "In this way, His Royal Highness King Qi will be very busy...... I don't know if his body can eat? ”
Her last sentence was very soft, and it was scattered in the wind as soon as she spoke, but she was still heard by Leng Yixiu, his eyebrows raised, and the fluttering words seemed to hit his chest, making his whole body shake and numb again.
Although he understood that there was no other meaning in her words, he somehow just thought of that night...... The skin-to-skin kiss with Rong Xi, his heart was like a frenzy, surging like a sea tide and hitting the small hard place in his heart fiercely, and he suddenly felt that those were slightly wet, as if the land that had dried up for many years and cracked was soaked inch by inch, and it was a little tidal green.
What he didn't know was that his face was slightly red from the thought of the passion of that night.
"Huh?" Rong Xi's sharp eyes found, "What's wrong with you?" ...... face"
"What's wrong?" Leng Yixiu had already recovered, raised his hand and touched his face, "What's the matter?" "It's normal to touch it.
Rong Xi couldn't help but wonder if his eyes were dazzled just now, and he would blush? How could this guy blush? He's obviously shameless and black!
"I think he has a lot of things to arrange next, such as, who gave the poison to the former prince? A scapegoat needs to be found, and what about the missing person? That team, as well as the missing young talent, all need to give an explanation. Leng Yixiu turned his face away, his expression hidden in the dark light.
"Regarding the poison, he is just going to borrow a knife to kill someone," Rong Xi thought about Leng Yiwei's pale and sick face, "Guess who he will find?" ”
Leng Yixiu narrowed his eyes, and his tone was slightly cold, "He? In fact, we pushed the matter of tracking to him, which can be regarded as giving him a chance, you are right, it is an opportunity to kill people with a knife, and if you want to grasp this opportunity and use it to play an effective role, there is only the fifth child. ”
Rong Xi turned her head to look at him and didn't speak, she felt for the first time that this man was indeed very attractive, but he didn't notice her thoughts, but continued: "The fifth brother-in-law is also in the army, and there are also a group of supporters under him, I dare to conclude that the former prince must have promised the fifth child something, otherwise as soon as he dies, how could the fifth child not be able to suppress such a big reaction?" ”
"I heard that the eldest prince has a low background and is also reckless?" Rong Xi smiled slightly, his eyes brightened, "Will he be beaten by him?" ”
"It depends on the situation," Leng Yixiu also smiled, his drooping eyelashes couldn't stop the light in his eyes, "In fact, the boss is not a threat to the eighth child at all, and he may not bother to pay attention to him at all." ”
"What about the Four Princes?" Rong Xi asked.
"Fourth?" Leng Yixiu pondered slightly, "The relationship between the fourth brother and several brothers is relatively weak, he will not be co-opted, nor framed, he is also very upright in the death of the prince, his noble birth is the only one who succumbed to the emperor at that time, and Rong Guifei's maiden family is in the coastal area of Eastern Xinjiang, and the power is extraordinary." Just ......"
He paused, as if thinking about how to continue, but Rong Xi smiled and said, "He himself has no intention of competing for the throne?" Want to be an idle prince? ”
Leng Yixiu looked at Rong Xi in surprise, with appreciation in his eyes, he has always appreciated Rong Xi, from the beginning of seeing her first "fierce", she operated against herself, the shock of that moment burst from the bottom of his heart, and the things that followed all the way, he couldn't help but be attracted to her, and was ...... by her Infatuation, this qiē, is based on initial appreciation.
She is smart and wise, and her eyes are so bright that she seems to be able to see people's hearts clearly, as if she can see the powerful relationship of things in an instant, and touch the core of things.
"Am I not right?" He didn't answer for a long time, and Rong Xi couldn't help asking.
"Yes, you're right," Leng Yixiu replied with a smile, "It's just that I don't know if the eighth child will think like this." But at least judging from the current situation, he disdains to deal with the boss, the fourth is not easy to deal with, only the fifth. ”
"Well, then let's sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight." Rong Xi smiled, snow-white, like a cunning little beast.
"Yes!" Leng Yixiu clapped his hands and smiled.
"Thief couple!" The two guards glanced at each other and saw the three words in each other's eyes.
King Qi went to work, but Rong Xi was a little free, although she knew that there would be more and more things in the future, a bit of a mountain rain about to come, but at least the wind and rain have not come yet.
She had been nervous since the crossing, and now she could finally catch her breath, and shortly after dinner, she took an early shower and lay down to sleep.
Leng Yixiu stepped on the moon, the moonlight was good tonight, he found a reason to talk to Rong Xi for a while while walking, where did he know that when he stepped in, he found that the light in the room was dim, and he couldn't help but be slightly surprised.
Xiao'er, who was standing under the porch, saw him, and hurriedly walked over to give a salute and said, "Lord Wang." ”
"Where's the princess?" Leng Yixiu asked.
"The princess said she was a little tired and had already fallen asleep."
"So early?" Leng Yixiu looked inside, there was no light in the bedroom, only a dim lamp was lit in the outer room, and it looked like he was indeed asleep.
He was slightly annoyed, when did he ...... Can Rong Xi pick up the lamp and wait for him? However, thinking about the change in Rong Xi's attitude towards himself in recent days, it is already very surprising, if he does not endure it at this time, according to Rong Xi's personality, he may fall short, so he can only make a hasty "um" and turn away.
He was in a bad mood, and the weather was a little hot, which made him feel even more irritable, so he changed his route back to the front hall and ran to the garden, where the trees were luxuriant, the flowers were dense, the small bridges and rivers flowed, and the air was fresher and cooler.
The moonlight is as light as silver frost, gently enveloping the whole back garden in the light, and a large adult tree next to it has dense branches and leaves, the leaves are deep or shallow in the moonlight, some are slightly white in the moonlight, and some are hidden in the shadows, deep and shallow, adding a bit of gorgeous beauty.
Leng Yixiu looked up at the sky, the night was like ink, the stars were like broken diamonds, the moon was like a jade plate, the halo was slightly blurred, and a touch of clouds floated gently, as if the girl shyly pulled the light veil covering her face.
He stood quietly in this summer night scene, thinking about Rong Xi's sleeping appearance at the moment, his heart seemed to recede a little bit of irritability, and slowly quieted down, he closed his eyes slightly, as if she was beside him, listening to the sound of the petals gently blooming among the flowers, the sound of the light sweetness, the faint sweet smell slowly diffused to the tip of the nose, like her fragrance, no, her fragrance is clearer, cooler, and the elegance and lightness of the orchid in the slight sweetness. That's her.
Under the moonlight, he stood quietly, his eyes closed slightly, and in his mind was Rong Xi's happy and angry appearance, her outline was so clear, as if a knife was carved into his heart, the deep imprint, reflected in his eyes was a soft expression, he unconsciously hooked the corners of his lips.
Suddenly I felt a feeling, what did I feel? Thankful that day, I accidentally drank too much wine and went to find Rongxi? Saw her "fierce? Or do you feel that you are not angry with her because of her "fierceness", but are attracted by her, and get closer to her step by step, so as to know her more clearly?
He didn't know, he couldn't tell, he just felt that a certain place in his heart was slowly opening, and under this moonlight, the silver moonlight spread into it, like a vast silver sea.
"Huh!" In this dark night, it was almost inaudible, it was the sound of the wind sliding through his clothes, a slight sound, but it was like a heavy drum beating on Leng Yixiu's heart.
He opened his eyes.
