Chapter 42: Panic
"Lying?" Tang Ying looked at Ming Chongyan puzzled.
He nodded calmly, "All men lie. I'm no exception. ”
"And what did you lie about?"
Ming Chongyan exhaled a white sigh, "About going to Chang'an to deliver a letter." I took the initiative to send it personally, not by order of Her Majesty the Empress. ”
Tang Ying's heart skipped a violent beat again. She subconsciously wanted to withdraw her hand, but was held tighter by Ming Chongyan, "Don't make trouble." It's important to hurry back to Luoyang Palace. ”
After walking for a long time and not seeing the guards, Tang Ying asked, "You came by yourself?" ”
"Hmm." He replied briefly, and continued to walk forward.
Tang Ying said: "If we are really in danger, then what can you and I do?" Ming Chongyan seemed a little embarrassed, and replied softly: "I was in a hurry, so I didn't tell anyone." ”
Tang Ying was in a state of confusion, he didn't know how to answer him, he just wanted to return to the palace as soon as possible. After walking for an hour, they finally came to the vicinity of Luoyang Palace, and Tang Ying pulled out his hand again. This time, Ming Chongyan didn't force it, and let go of his hand.
"Today's incident, I will act as if it never happened." Tang Ying pretended to be calm and announced.
Ming Chongyan's face was calm, "But I can't pretend that it hasn't happened." ”
Tang Ying was anxious, "Ming Chongyan, you can't do this. ”
Ming Chongyan said: "How? ”
Tang Ying was dumbfounded, in fact, he didn't make a clear confession or do anything excessive. Ming Chongyan smiled, "Since I didn't say it, this matter has nothing to do with you." ”
Tang Ying said: "This ...... There is no result. I won't have any response to you in the future. ”
Ming Chongyan dusted off the white snow, and dusted off the snow on Tang Ying's shoulders very calmly, "No, no, no." I was ready. ”
"Huh!" Tang Ying had never seen such a dead-eyed person. She used fake death to cut off Di Renjie's thoughts last time, what should she do this time? Do you want to fake your death again?
Ming Chongyan ignored her entanglement, found the imperial doctor to order a good decoction, and hurried to the emperor's bedroom as if nothing had happened.
In the distance, you can see the dim candlelight peeking through the window. Wu Mei couldn't find Tang Ying and Ming Chongyan, so she could only guard Li Zhi in person. Seeing them coming back one after another, she didn't have time to ask, but just said to Ming Chongyan: "Go and see, Your Majesty is starting to have a headache again." ”
Ming Chongyan was already accustomed to Wu Mei's way of behaving, and was no longer cramped, but replied in a low voice: "Please don't worry, the queen doesn't worry, wind vertigo is a seasonal disease, and it is common for it to occur on snowy nights." His Majesty was in pain, but it was not life-threatening. Just drink a pill or two. ”
Wu Mei now trusts and relies on Ming Chongyan very much, and she is relieved to hear him say this. Tang Ying walked up to her sullenly and waited outside with her. Wu Mei took her hand and asked, "Look at you all over the snowflakes, go change your clothes and be careful of catching a cold." ”
How could Tang Ying catch a cold with white fire in his body? But she didn't want to meet Ming Chongyan, so she obediently went to change her clothes, and then rubbed until it was estimated that Ming Chongyan was gone, and then came back to see Li Zhi.
Wu Mei had already gone back to her bedroom to rest. Except for the palace maids and eunuchs who kept vigil, there was no one else in the emperor's bedroom.
Tang Ying came to Li Zhi's bed lightly, and saw that his brows were stretched, presumably the decoction made by "Moon Shadow" had taken effect. She was afraid that the sound of holding a stool would wake up Li Zhi, so she found a ** to sit on the ground at the head of the bed, and lay down to rest with her arms on the edge of the bed.
I don't know if I stayed for too long, Li Zhi wanted to drink water in the middle of the night, and called people with his eyes closed. Tang Ying asked the palace maid to step back, poured himself a glass of warm water and sent it to the bed. She held the cup in one hand and helped Li Zhi up with the other.
The soft touch on his back made Li Zhi open his eyes suddenly, "Ah Ying? How are you? ”
Tang Ying motioned for him not to get excited, helped him sit up, put on his coat, and handed him warm water, "I've been here for a while." Seeing that you were fine, I didn't wake you up. ”
After Li Zhi drank the water, he looked at her with a smile in his eyes, "When I saw you, I was immediately healed." Come, get to bed. ”
Tang Ying patted him on the arm in disgust, "It's not serious to be sick like this, I'm going to call Mei Niang." ”
Li Zhi hurriedly put on a pitiful look, "Don't, don't." You're going to threaten me. I didn't call you up, but we could sit side by side. ”
Tang Ying raised his eyebrows to observe his expression, and said categorically in just two seconds, "I don't believe it." ”
Li Zhi smiled comfortably, "I still can't hide anything from you." Then put your clothes on you, and I will lie down. ”
Tang Ying waved his hand, "This is a dragon robe, how can I wear it?" ”
Li Zhi pretended to be angry and said, "When did you become so pedantic? Could it be that for this useless etiquette, the body is frozen? I command you to put it on, or lie down beside me. ”
Tang Ying saw that he was starting to be childish again, and he no longer shirked it, carefully took the drape on his body, and intimately helped him lie down, and carefully tucked the quilt corner.
Li Zhi always stared at her every move, waited for her to sit down, and said with emotion: "Ah Ying, you have become good at taking care of people." ”
Tang Ying said: "I would have known it a long time ago." You forgot that I started belting you when I was a teenager. Li Zhi shook his head slightly, "It's different." You are like a mother now. ”
Tang Ying's face flushed, but his voice trembled a little, "But I don't have children." ”
Li Zhi stretched out an arm and put his hand on hers, "There will be." Ah Ying, if you have someone you like. I'm willing to call the shots for you. You're twenty-four, and it's time to have a home. ”
I have!
She almost blurted out. But she's not so sure now. She originally thought that the place where Li Chunfeng was was her home, but Li Chunfeng did not admit their relationship, and she ran out of the "home".
Seeing that she seemed to have been wronged, she pursed her mouth tightly. Li Zhi asked: "Have you been in the palace for a long time, and some people have gossiped about you, saying that you are my woman?" Actually, it's not hard to think of it. The women in the palace were originally the emperor's.
Seeing that Tang Ying didn't reply, he said, "I can issue a holy decree and make you the lord of the county." If the man still won't marry you, I'll kill him!" ”
Tang Ying laughed angrily, "I'm talking stupid again, I think you just don't want me to marry." ”
Li Zhi looked at her smiling face, gently poked her dimples with his fingers, and said gently, "I think so." Sincerely, I hope you can always be by my side. But I want you to be happy more than I want you to be happy. ”
Tang Ying was moved by his words, and thanked her a little coquettishly: "I know that you really care for me." ”
"yes. Come on, get into bed......" Li Zhi narrowed his eyes mischievously, and provoked Tang Ying to punch him in the arm.
"Alas, Ah Ying, what would I do without you?" He emotionally took her hand and kissed her lightly on the mouth, his eyes shining brightly.
"Me too, me too." Tang Ying faced him and pillowed his head on his hands. Suddenly, there was a desire to talk in her heart, and she asked: "Your Majesty, what should married life be like?" ”
Li Zhi seemed to be in good spirits, and said excitedly: "You asked me to be the right person." I've got a lot of experience. ”
"Oh?" Tang Ying blinked, "Then you tell me about it." ”
