With Li Cao to pick him up, Shen Ruyu went back with him.

Wang Zijun seemed to have expected this result and was not surprised at all, but Mingxi still couldn't react a little, his expression was dizzy, and he couldn't accept that his sister, who was as warm as jade and as pure as snow in his heart, actually followed the emperor like this - also, in broad daylight, kissed him.

Wang Zijun seemed to know what he was thinking, and laughed idly, "I didn't expect Mingxi to be so young and so old-fashioned?" Where the love goes, the two love each other, and if you use the great principles of morality and etiquette to suppress it at every turn, you will be hated? ”

Mingxi had no way to act in this unruly manner, as if she did whatever she wanted, he snorted unconvinced, and muttered awkwardly, "Sister Ruyu was brought bad by you people!" ”。

Wang Zijun was not angry and calculating, and dragged him back with a smile to continue working.

On the other side, Li Cao, who was led down the mountain by Shen Ruyu, was still a little confused.

Seeing that it was impossible to be gently reminded to be careful of her feet, Shen Ruyu turned around and held Li Cao's arm a little funny, the other party was slightly stunned, and looked up at her blankly, looking at him like this, Shen Ruyu sighed lowly, "What do you think?" Watch your step. ”

Li Cao's ears suddenly turned red, but he forced a calm "um", grabbed Shen Ruyu's wrist, and was helped by her to slowly walk down the mountain.

He felt like he was a little messy.

That's ......

What kind of ...... is this?

Did Ruyu agree to be with him?

She also said that she liked him.

She also kissed him......

Is she sincere, or is she ...... Just for the Shen family?

Although...... As long as she agreed to be with him, he was very happy, but what her heart was still made him very concerned.

Perhaps this is the so-called lack of greed.

Obviously, he had always thought that Ruyu would be satisfied if he could look at him more, but now that they are together, she kisses him, but he still wants her to love him without impurities, like he loves her.

It's just that Li Cao is no longer a three-year-old child, and Shen Ruyu suddenly found out how unlikely it is that he actually loves him deeply, and he knows it himself.

After a brief period of ecstasy, his whole body felt like he was stepping on the edge of a hanging cliff, and his mood fluctuated.

Shen Ruyu didn't speak, and Li Cao was silent as if he was more energetic.

They kept holding hands and going down the mountain, and Shen Ruyu found the carriage at a glance at the bottom of the mountain, although it looked low-key, but if you thought about it carefully, you could figure out that it was extraordinary everywhere.

She turned her head and asked, "Did you come in that carriage?" ”

Li Cao seemed to be a little resentful and nodded, I don't know if he was angry at Shen Ruyu who had eaten him and never took him to heart, or if he was angry at Shen Ruyu, he was extremely useless.

Yes.

Li Cao felt that Shen Ruyu had never taken him to heart.

Say what you like him...... He had no impression of what she said, maybe she made it up in order to coax him.

She is so smart, it must be easy to make up a few plausible stories that I don't know whether they are true or false.

But...... Even if he was so upset about the fact that Ruyu didn't really accept him, when he found out that they were suddenly attacked, he still subconsciously dragged Shen Ruyu into his arms and protected the other party to the death.

Countless □□ hit them like a storm, and instantly nailed the entire sedan chair into a hedgehog, Shen Ruyu took out something from his arms and threw it out of the window, the thing immediately burst out with a thunderous sound, and a red mist exploded in mid-air, probably afraid that someone would be attracted over, and the attackers fled immediately without coming forward to check the casualties.

Li Cao was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but saw Shen Ruyu in her arms showing an extremely unrestrained look for the first time, her hands pressed tightly on his chest, her eyes widened, and she looked at him nervously, "A-Cong?!" Are you okay!? ”

Seeing this, he originally wanted to say that he was wearing the personal armor of the Ouchi system, and he was not injured and told her not to worry.

Almost at that moment, Li Cao immediately closed his eyes, fell on Shen Ruyu's shoulder, and pretended to faint.

In fact, there was indeed a □□ that penetrated the car board and nailed it into his back, Li Cao felt it, it was probably only some broken skin, but if he didn't take off his clothes, it still looked very terrifying - at least Shen Ruyu was really frightened.

Soon there were officers and soldiers in the city who were attracted by Shen Ruyu's release signal, and before that, I don't know if it was because he had closed his eyes for too long, and Shen Ruyu kept muttering in his ear that he wanted him to hold on, and the worry and eagerness made him very relieved, Li Cao slowly and really lost consciousness.

……

He dreamed about something that had happened a long time ago.

At that time, he was still a prince, young and frivolous, arrogant and arrogant.

In the dream, Li Cao was like a ghost that no one could see, silently watching his young self grow up.

At that time, I didn't seem to know what worries in the world, no matter what I wanted, I could get it at my fingertips.

And on that day, someone presented a red horse to the palace. The horse was red as red as blood, and when it ran, it was like a flame.

Of course, he begged the horse from his father, and he was so happy that all he thought about was the red horse, and he didn't see anything else, such as the little girl waiting at the gate of the royal garden.

Li Cao, who had been quietly looking at himself when he was young, suddenly widened his eyes.

Because he found out that the little girl who hung her head and was quietly saluting "herself" was Shen Ruyu.

Yes!

Red Horse, Royal Garden.

This is exactly the scene where Ruyu had told him before, and they met for the first time.

She said that at that time, he had never looked at him in the eye.

Li Cao didn't believe that he would ignore her one day, but at this moment, he looked at himself in a red riding costume when he was young, dressed in fresh clothes and angry horses, and walked through a group of people outside the imperial garden without squinting, and galloped towards the imperial horse farm with a high spirit.

Li Cao: "......"

However, what made him slightly relieved was that after Shen Ruyu finished the salute, she didn't seem to be angry because of his rudeness and arrogance, she turned around and followed behind the eunuch, and when she was summoned by the queen to enter the imperial garden, he saw Shen Ruyu paused slightly, turned her head sideways and looked at the direction of "herself" leaving, her expression was full of curiosity and yearning, envy and longing.

And, it was a pair of extremely bright eyes.

Even though Shen Ruyu's eyes are usually clear and bright enough, at this time, those eyes are shining with a moving brilliance that can only be found when looking at something beloved.

Li Cao suddenly remembered what Shen Ruyu said-

【“…… I fell in love with you when I first met you when I was seven years old. ”】

["Although at that time, you didn't even look at me. ”】

【“…… That was the first time I saw you. I remember you jumping into my eyes like a flame in a fiery red riding suit. ”】

【“…… At that time, I saw your face and thought, how can there be such a beautiful person in this world? You look so happy, and I see you so high-spirited, even my heart soars. You're so eye-catching, it makes me think—how nice it would be if you could always be so proud and wanton. Just looking at you, I'm already happy. ”】

Then in the many, many things that he remembered lacklusterly, Li Cao found the person standing beside the queen again and again, and cast a vague gaze.

When she looked at his back, her eyes were full of smiles.

He had never noticed, and she had concealed it well, and as long as she lowered her head slightly, the tenderness in her expression dissipated completely.

Li Cao suddenly hated her a little, why did she like him at that time, but she never sued him.

But he thought, even if Ruyu said it at that time, what could it be?

At that time, he ...... Bears are going to die, and they don't know what it means to like them.

As Li Cao in the dream gradually grew up, he finally became mature, and then reached the scene of his first meeting with Shen Ruyu in his memory.

From the perspective of a bystander, he watched the gentle and beautiful girl with her wonderful eyelashes lowered, stroke by stroke in the palm of his hand, and slowly wrote down the word "瞾" with slender fingers.

The moment she finished writing, the moment he finished reading, they raised their eyes at the same time, and Li Cao remembered that it was at that moment that her gaze looked into his heart.

He once thought that Shen Ruyu had always been indifferent to him, but the small tenderness in her eyes was like a fleeting light, hidden without a trace in a moment, but it was still, real.

When he didn't know it, her gaze had stayed for him for so long.

……

Li Cao opened his eyes suddenly.

He found himself back in the palace, his mind was chaotic for a while, he lifted the quilt and was about to go to find Shen Ruyu, and the two little eunuchs who were guarding his bed suddenly panicked, "Your Majesty!" 陛xià! Be careful with your ......"

He interrupted their unnutritious nonsense irritably, and roared angrily, "What about Ruyu!? ”

As soon as Li Cao's words fell, Shen Ruyu walked in from outside the door, and she asked suspiciously, "...... What's wrong? ”

Seeing that her eyes finally fell on him again, Li Cao rushed over and hugged her in his arms.

Shen Ruyu was slightly stunned, "...... 陛xià? ”

Li Cao suddenly tightened his arms roughly, "Don't call me Your Majesty!" ”

Shen Ruyu glanced at the two little eunuchs, and the two clever ones immediately retreated, and then she raised her hand and patted Li Cao's back, "Ah Cong, what's wrong?" ”

"You lied to me......" and Li Cao remembered that she obviously liked him so much, and pretended to be cold, so he gritted his teeth angrily, and his sweet scalp was numb, "Watching me circulate around you, is it so interesting!" Shen Ruyu!? ”

Shen Ruyu: "...... I lied to you? She frowned in confusion, "What did I lie to you?" ”

"You like me!" Li Cao replied viciously, "You obviously like me, don't you!" ”

"Do you care about this?" Shen Ruyu couldn't understand his brain circuit at all, and she said helplessly and funny, "-Do you want to listen to who attacked us?" ”

Li Cao was very perfunctory: "Who? ”

"It's the bandits who once kidnapped me." Although he didn't seem to have much interest, Shen Ruyu still dutifully reported, "...... The son of the leader of the cottage was not captured, but fled, and he was the one who attacked us before. ”

“…… He shouldn't know who you are, but he's coming for me. ”

"Oh, do you catch it now?"

"It's been caught." Speaking of this, Shen Ruyu sighed.

Li Cao immediately raised his head sensitively, "What?" You want to let him go!? ”

"It's not...... Since he has already done this kind of thing, he deserves to be severely punished by law. Shen Ruyu was quite speechless for these people who always felt that she was kind like a virgin, "I'm sighing at you." ”

"Ah Cong, do you really understand your responsibility as the king of a country?"

"You're in front of me, if something really happens, what do you want this country to do?"

Of course, Li Cao also understands what it means to be "the son of a daughter who can't sit down", but ......

"The body moved on its own at that time, and I couldn't ...... it"

If Shen Ruyu wasn't around, he might still be bound by the so-called "responsibility" and think rationally, but as soon as Shen Ruyu was around, all those things disappeared, and he could only see her alone in his whole world.

When he said this, Shen Ruyu couldn't refute it, so she had to say helplessly, "I owe you a life." ”

Li Cao couldn't help laughing, "It's just right, I want you to spend your life to pay me back." ”

After learning the news, Cui Wenjun's whole person exploded - half of it was cute, and half of it was shocked.

Wang Zijun was not surprised at all, after witnessing that kiss in broad daylight, even if he was unwilling, he had actually faintly accepted the truth in his heart.

And after the relationship was confirmed, Shen Ruyu no longer wanted the queen to still exist - her ambition had never faded, and she had faintly won over many people in the Shen family, if she could become the head of the Shen family, the power of the century-old Gaomen would definitely make her * go to the next level.

But when the emperor was ready to start a struggle with the family's famous swords and guns, her actions would undoubtedly greatly deplete the Shen family's heritage. And history proves that the system of monopoly of the gate valve clan is bound to be abandoned by the torrent of the times.

Shen Ruyu asked Song Jin to order the shadow son who was lurking in the Shen family to quietly let the second miss of the Shen family, who had been cured from a serious illness, die of a sudden illness again.

In the name of filial piety, the Shen family became extremely low-key, and in the subsequent operation launched by the emperor to clean up the clan forces, the Shen family and the Cui family were the two families that suffered the least damage.

Wen Ming left again not long after returning to Jingshi, he said that during the trip with Shen Ruyu, although he encountered many terrible and thrilling things, but because of this, those experiences were so unforgettable, and the happiest thing about the journey was that you never knew what the next scene would look like.

Shen Ruyu felt that maybe Wen Ming could become Xu Xiake of Da Jiang.

Only Cui Wenjun and Wang Zizhi felt scared from time to time - what to do with history, it seems that there is a deviation from what they know, and their butterfly wings are a little fierce! I wonder if they will be born in the future? If they don't be born, then they won't cross, will they suddenly disappear one day, and then the world will be ruined?

Maybe it's because fear is also a very strong force, with that momentum, Wang Zizhi wrote a lot of words, because the brain hole Qingqi story is novel, extremely popular, when he was old and began to be forced to marry by his parents, he simply didn't do anything to learn from his sister and became a Taoist priest, and concentrated on writing books.

It's just that Li Cao is very unhappy to find that in each of Wang Zizhi's scripts, there is always a character very similar to Shen Ruyu, beautiful and talented, but the end is always tragic, and he always falls in love with the same man as the heroine.

Shen Ruyu comforted him deeply every time, you don't understand, this is the second male ...... No, the standard configuration of the second female.

The protagonist is used to toss, and the supporting role is used to love! The heroine of the crossing is so tall
