174. Go back to him
"Hehe, my favorite sweetness?" Cheng Tiantian sneered, and tears flashed in her eyes with laughter: "But at that time, can I still go back to you?" Have you ever thought that after I go back, he will never give me a chance to escape again, what should I do then? Accept all his punishments obediently? ”
"He won't punish you, I'm sure of that." Mu Lingtian said in a low voice, with a hint of weakness in his voice that he could feel himself: "Also, Tiantian, I really love you, and you don't need to question this." ”
"Then don't let me go back, eldest prince, I don't want to go back." Cheng Tiantian grabbed Mu Lingtian's hand tightly, and tears finally welled up: "I already have you in my heart now, and you let me face him again...... I can't do it! ”
"Tiantian, do you know how I've spent all these years?" Mu Lingtian gently wiped the tears on his cheeks with his fingers to help Cheng Tiantian, and said sadly: "I was sent here when I was three years old, and I can't go back for the Chinese New Year, and my father has never come to see me. I can't do anything except practice and study every day, and I don't have any other children who have played or enjoyed it. I once sneaked out of the monastery to play with the children herding the cows, but the master came back and beat me and told me that I was different from other children, and that I could only stay here to learn art and recuperate. ”
Cheng Tiantian was stunned when she heard it, forgetting her heartache and forgetting to speak.
Mu Lingtian looked at her and continued: "One year during the Mid-Autumn Festival, my father finally came, and I was very happy. However, he still took King Jing with him, and the love he showed to King Jing in every word made me envious. At that time, King Jing was majestic and majestic, and every guard around my father was respectful to him, but when he saw me, he looked at me with pity...... At that time, I made up my mind in my heart that one day, I would also stand majestically in front of King Jing, surpass him, and take back everything I had taken from him. Let everyone know that I am the real master of this palace. ”
"Then your queen mother doesn't care about you? Queen Mother, she ......" Cheng Tiantian couldn't help but ask.
"The Queen Mother?" Mu Lingtian took Cheng Tiantian's words, and his expression was particularly sad: "I don't even know what my mother is like?" Outsiders thought I was born to the queen, and I thought it was like that when I was a child. But here I am, and she hasn't been here once, and I'm strange and sad. One time I had another seizure and a high fever that didn't go away for a long time. I said to the nurse who has been taking care of me, I miss my mother, why doesn't my queen mother come to see me? The nurse cried, and I couldn't resist asking again and again, but the nurse later told me that the queen mother was not my biological mother. My own mother disappeared after giving birth to me, and the queen mother took me to me and declared that I was her child. The only people who know this secret are probably the father and the queen now. ”
"The eldest prince, it turns out that your background is so pitiful, your own mother is missing, haven't you thought about looking for her?" Cheng Tiantian said softly, her heart full of deep sympathy for Mu Lingtian.
"Tiantian, in a place like the palace, what does it mean to be missing, don't you understand?" Mu Lingtian smiled bitterly, and his dark eyes were slightly wet: "How can my mother still be alive?" After giving birth to me, she must have ......"
"Great prince, don't be too sad...... Cheng Tiantian's heart ached slightly, his arms wrapped around his body, and he said with pity: "I think your mother will bless you in heaven." ”
Mu Lingtian hugged her tightly and asked in a deep voice, "Tiantian, can you help me?" ”
Cheng Tiantian lowered her head again, didn't speak, and her heart was in a mess.
"I only have you now." Mu Lingtian raised her head slightly with his hand and looked at her affectionately and gently: "Tiantian, we have high-fived before, you promised that I will help me if I have something." ”
"But ......" Cheng Tiantian opened her mouth, but she felt that it was so difficult to say every word: "I can't hurt people casually, right...... Although he is not good to me, he still seems to be very responsible in doing things, and I don't do it properly. ”
"Didn't let you hurt anyone, just gave me some of his actions." Mu Lingtian hugged her into his arms and said calmly: "This does not affect his work, it can help me ascend to the throne in the future." You must know that this throne itself should be mine, if it weren't for him, how could I have so many grievances? He is only the nephew of his father, and it is only natural that I inherit the throne. ”
"Do you really love me?" After being silent for a long time, Cheng Tiantian raised his head and looked at him faintly.
"Love, of course I really love you." Mu Lingtian let out a long sigh and stared at her deeply: "Tiantian, don't you still believe me?" The only girl I've ever hugged is you, and I'll only love you in this life. ”
"But I don't know about those state affairs, and I don't know, what is useful information?" Cheng Tiantian finally spoke, her heart had been shaken.
She tried to convince herself in her heart that since according to common sense, the eldest prince should inherit the throne, and she didn't want to see him sad, then help him.
As long as he doesn't hurt others, it's actually not bad for Mu Lingxuan to be his prince......
"Tiantian, you are very smart, I know that as long as you are willing, you will definitely be able to do well." A pleased smile appeared on Mu Lingtian's face, and he said gently, "When the time comes, I will also give you a hint." ”
"That'...... How can I contact you in the future? Cheng Tiantian bit her lip heavily, and her voice was dry and weak: "He is so scheming, he didn't let me go out casually before." ”
"I'll contact you if there's something." Mu Lingtian squeezed her hand and said softly: "Moreover, as long as you are kind to him, he will definitely not embarrass you again, and he may even rely on you for everything." If you want to find me, you can go to Tianshui Accord, you appear there, and I will know soon. ”
"Hehe, be kind to him? You just want me to be good with him? Cheng Tian smiled bitterly, feeling funny and heartache, what could be more ridiculous than hearing a man who said he really loved himself and let himself be a little warmer for another man?
"Tiantian, I'm sorry......" Mu Lingtian's eyes slipped with deep guilt, and hugged her tightly: "Believe me, this time, it won't be too long, I won't let you stay by his side for too long." ”
"Go back, I want to sleep." Cheng Tiantian sighed softly and stood up.
The two of them walked to the temple together, and along the way, Cheng Tiantian never said a word again.
At night, she naturally suffered from insomnia, tossing and turning in bed, and it was difficult to sleep.
The figures of Mu Lingtian and Mu Lingxuan overlapped in her mind alternately, and as soon as she thought of going back to Mu Lingxuan's side to go undercover and steal information, Cheng Tiantian had a sense of crime in her heart. However, he couldn't control himself......
The next day, Mu Lingtian took Cheng Tiantian to bid farewell to the Tianxuan Daoist and set off to rush back to the capital. Because of the long distance, when they arrived in the capital, it was already the evening of the third day.
During this long journey, Cheng Tiantian has always been preoccupied and rarely speaks. Mu Lingtian was also upset, and the two of them spent almost the entire way in silence.
Outside the gate of the capital, Mu Lingtian stopped the car and looked at Cheng Tiantian silently, his eyes seemed to contain a thousand words.
"What's wrong?" Cheng Tiantian asked.
"Tiantian, I can only go here with you, you can call a car back to the palace yourself." Mu Lingtian stared at her, his voice slightly hoarse: "If I send you back, he will definitely be suspicious." ”
Cheng Tiantian was stunned for a moment, and smiled bitterly again: "Okay, I'll go back by myself." ”
As she spoke, she got up and was about to get out of the car, but Mu Lingtian gently grabbed her hand.
"Is there anything else?" Cheng Tiantian asked, turning her head away from looking at him, afraid that she couldn't help it and tears would fall disobediently.
"Tiantian, you have to remember that no matter what I do, I love you." Mu Lingtian held her face and left a gentle kiss on her forehead: "Even if I can't be with you, my heart for you will never change." ”
"Well, I remember." Cheng Tiantian's eyes quickly reddened, and she quickly broke free of his hand and jumped out of the car.
Mu Lingtian's carriage didn't stop too long, and galloped away in the direction of the capital, leaving behind the dust and smoke flying all the way.
Cheng Tiantian stood in place, watching the carriage get smaller and farther away, until it completely disappeared from the end of her sight. Her heart was filled with a sadness that bordered on despair.
Now, she is only 17 years old, but she suddenly seems to feel that she has become very old......
After standing like that for a long time, Cheng Tiantian walked over to a row of carriages parked on the side of the road waiting for business.
She once thought about going back to the General's Mansion for a few days. However, she knew that she had gone back to the General's Mansion, and her parents would not say anything about it, and they would immediately notify Mu Lingxuan. The storm that should come will have to be faced sooner or later, so it is better to go back to the palace first, and wait until the entanglement with Mu Lingxuan is clear, and then go back to the general's mansion to see them.
casually got into a carriage, and Cheng Tian said sweetly: "Help send me to King Jing's Mansion." ”
When they arrived at King Jing's Mansion, the guards guarding the door saw that the princess, who had been exhausted by the prince who had not been seen for several months, suddenly came back alone, and they were all surprised, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet them respectfully.
"Is the prince here?" Cheng Tiantian walked into the door without squinting, and asked indifferently.
"Back to the princess, the prince hasn't returned to the house yet. But the princess is back, and we will find someone to inform the prince immediately. The prince explained that if there is news about the princess, he must report it to him immediately. One of the guards replied.
"Oh." Cheng Tiantian was slightly stunned, was he really so eager to find himself? Is this a blessing or a curse?
After thinking about it, she gently dropped a sentence: "Actually...... There is no need to tell the prince in such a hurry, the prince is very busy. And he hurried away.
