Chapter 47: Confused King's Heart (1)
Qingyi Palace side hall
Nangong Luo Jing was dressed in a light veil, lazily half lying on the soft collapse, closing his eyes, sorting out his almost messy thoughts in the past few days.
That day, after being placed under house arrest by Lan Lingxu in Qingyi Palace, Nangong Luojing never saw her sister Wang again.
thought that Lan Lingxu would put her under house arrest with her father, but unexpectedly, they still separated them, Nangong Luo Jing was placed under house arrest in the side hall of Qingyi Palace, while her father was under house arrest in the main hall of Qingyi Palace.
And from beginning to end, it was Nangong Ting who stayed by his father's side to take care of him, the second sister who only had a few relationships with her.
She had only seen her father on the day she was brought into the Qingyi Palace, and she had never set foot in the main hall again.
However, just a few steps away made her feel exhausted.
She wanted to see but couldn't see it, and this feeling was more painful for her than death.
It was also on that day that she realized that there were so many things that were beyond her expectations.
What her father said to her that day was still ringing in her ears.
It turned out that Nangong Heng was not under house arrest, it was just that they wanted to use a puppet king to obey their orders, so that they could unknowingly ban that high position, and wait for the general situation to stabilize.
It's the so-called justification.
Oh, it's all so well arranged
Thinking of this, Nangong Luo Jing smiled and secretly laughed at all these plans that were designed seamlessly.
"The last general has seen the prince" The salute of the guards outside the door sounded, and Nangong Luo Jing's heart suddenly became a little more vigilant, collected his thoughts, raised his eyes, and looked towards the door.
After that sound fell, the vermilion door slowly opened with a muffled grunt.
The first thing that caught my eye was the white clothes, which were so white and clean that they were spotless, lined with that handsome face, which made people think of the gods coming to the world, but it was a pity that the white clothes were worn on Lan Lingxu's body, at this moment, Nangong Luo Jing could only silently tell himself in his heart that the man in front of him was a demon.
"The princess has been doing well here these days" The lazy tone slowly fell, Lan Lingxu raised his eyes and looked at the woman sitting on the soft collapse not far away, and saw that the light gauze dress was half transparent with the graceful posture of a woman, the long hair like a waterfall fell down to the waist, and the stunning face had a hint of cold color, with a hint of "do not approach".
"I haven't seen her for a few days, and the princess seems to be a little emaciated," he opened his mouth intentionally or unintentionally, so that the eyes that were originally clear and bright suddenly dyed with a light mist.
"The prince came here just to judge whether Luo Jing has eaten well these days, whether he is fat or thin" The thin mist between his eyes disappeared in an instant, Lan Lingxu only felt that the woman in front of him looked at him with such a sharp eye, Xu did not expect that she would look at herself with such eyes, and there was a trace of loss in her heart.
"If the princess is willing to think like this, this king will not mind" He raised his eyes, shook off a trace of fog in his heart, and looked fixedly at the beautiful woman in front of him.
Suddenly, there was a trace in my heart, and I wanted this woman to smile at him.
If he knew, he would later realize that he had become a little obsessed with this woman, and longed to be able to show her smile only in his own face, he would definitely regret hurting her now, and he would absolutely hate himself now.
"Luo Jing didn't think that the prince would have such a Yaxing, and he came to this Qingyi Palace just to see if Luo Jing was fat or thin" Looking at the indistinguishable color between his eyes, Nangong Luo Jing was powerless to think more, just thinking that at this moment, the man in front of him could disappear from his eyes immediately.
"It's not necessarily a good thing for the princess to think too much" A touch of playfulness quietly climbed up Lan Lingxu's thin lips, and he was even more secretly surprised in his heart, the woman in front of him was able to arouse his great desire.
"Heh" A light smile spread, with a hint of cold ridicule: "It's not that Luo Jing thinks too much, but the prince makes Luo Jing have too many illusions that are not illusions"
"Very good, this king would like to see how long the princess's sharp teeth and mouth can last," a trace of annoyance arose in his heart because of her mockery, but he couldn't bear to vent to her after all.
He was not angry at the sarcasm of her words, but the deliberate distance of her words made him feel powerless.
He admits that he has some longing to be close to the woman.
Lan Lingxu's words, Nangong Luo Jing could clearly feel a trace of annoyance in his words, but it seemed to be an illusion, so he didn't pay attention to it anymore, so he moved his eyes to stare at the half-open window lattice, and didn't respond to Lan Lingxu's intentional words that angered her.
"Why, don't you even have the courage to look at this king" I don't know when the man has stepped in front of him, and the light of his eyes has been replaced by the man's long body.
She didn't want to say anything more, but he became more and more aggressive.
Taking a deep breath, Nangong Luo Jing lowered his eyes, staring at the bluestone jade brick under his feet steadily, only to see that on the jade brick, he could vaguely recognize his vague figure, but the vague figure was actually entangled with Lan Lingxu's figure.
Twisting his eyebrows, Nangong Luo Jing instinctively took a few steps back, but before he could take a step, he felt that the force in his waist had already retracted the steps he wanted to retreat again.
"Lord, please respect yourself" Her brows were furrowed, and a little anger had already crept up on her fair face, but her hand still held the man's arm tightly in an untouchable situation, in order to prevent herself from stumbling and falling.
"The woman that King Xi has taken a fancy to is only to such an extent, it really opened the eyes of this king" The shallow and quiet voice was full of disdain, and it also made Nangong Luojing, who was surrounded by him, look fair and red because of the anger in his heart.
The mess under those clear eyes was tightly covered by the long eyelashes, so that he couldn't see the look between those eyes.
It's just that the beauty is in his arms, and the hand he placed on her waist unconsciously retracted, and the fragrance emanating from her body lingered under his nose in an instant, Lan Lingxu only felt that this burst of fragrance was like rosemary leading him step by step into the sea of flowers, and that kind of wonderful feeling was something he had never experienced in his life.
"The prince will think like this, but he is overestimating Luo Jing, Luo Jing is just an ordinary woman, and it is not too late for the prince to understand it now" Nangong Luo Jing lowered his eyes and responded coldly.
"Does the princess remember what the king of Japan said?" said the princess, smiling lightly, his long eyelashes flickering softly, as clear and agile as the fluttering butterflies.
"The prince said so much to Luo Jing, I don't know which sentence the prince is referring to"
Even if she knew he was referring to that, she thought she had never heard it.
"Is the princess testing the patience of this king" These words overflowed lightly with a smile, Nangong Luojing only felt that the man in front of her who kept an ambiguous distance from her seemed to be getting closer and closer, and the unfamiliar breath was already clearly lingering under her nose, making her want to hide but she couldn't dodge.
Facing this uncertain prince, Nangong Luo Jing still didn't think of a way to deal with him, and now even if she has wings, she can't escape, offending the man in front of her, she put her father in an even more dangerous situation.
She still has value for him, but her father is the biggest bargaining chip in his hands, which is why Lan Lingxu separated her from her father and put her under house arrest
She has a step to lose, and it will not be anyone else who will suffer, but her or her father.
Faced with such a complicated situation, Nangong Luojing, who was in a dilemma, was really at a loss.
"What is the prince doing so many things for" She opened her mouth faintly, and after only thinking about it for a short time, she already felt that her mind was suddenly in chaos.
"In order to get everything this king wants" Without a trace of hesitation, Nangong Luo Jing was surprised by the unbelievable answer he heard.
"How can this little patriotic country be the goal of the prince" His eyes rolled slightly, and his eyes fell on the window.
"Hmph, the princess also underestimates this king too much, how can this patriotic country be the target of this king" A muffled snort fell from his head, Nangong Luojing's brows twisted slightly, and instantly tightened a few points, hearing this answer in his ear, the fog that had been bypassed in his heart gradually dissipated a little, and his heart became clearer and clearer.
He had already given her too many signs of pride, but she couldn't believe what she had heard.
"Dongyang, Xiling are all in the prince's budget" Removing the only trace of fog in her heart, she suddenly felt that somewhere in her heart was like a butterfly breaking out of a cocoon, everything was clear and clear.
"The princess is now trying to understand this," a smile crept up the man's thin lips, and the hand placed on his waist became more and more forceful.
Sima Zhao's heart was well known to passers-by, and there was no need for her to answer.
"Heh, it seems that the prince has also made a big bet on Luo Jing, Luo Jing is really afraid that he will disappoint the prince when the time comes" dodging left and right, she is looking at herself lightly.
There was a hint of inquiring brilliance in his eyes, and Lan Lingxu looked down at those eyes, and he actually felt a sense of confusion.
"This king has only seen someone who sees himself as more important than anyone else, and has never seen anyone who sees himself so lightly, the princess deserves to be a princess, and would rather be the first person in the heart of this king than have the same thing with everyone"
Listening to the laughter falling in his ears, Nangong Luo Jing really didn't hear that these words were a little positive and a little depreciated.
After a moment of silence, the room fell silent, and it was only after a short time that Lan Lingxu's low voice fell into his ears.
"The agreement prepared by the king yesterday should be in the hands of the king of the east and the west at this moment" Before Lan Lingxu finished speaking, the woman in front of him had an unusual reaction, and those clear eyes suddenly rose at that time, and there were too many emotions in those eyes, so complicated that he almost couldn't help but fall into them.
"Who are you worried about, is it the king of the west who is the husband of the princess, or the king of the east who is obsessed with the princess" He changed his voice slowly, and in an extremely cold voice, he found a response attitude from the eyes that almost made him fall.
"What does the prince want to do" Uncontrollable emotions poured out, and her eyes were full of anger at this moment.
"Didn't this king say that this king wants to get everything this king wants" He looked at the anger burning in his eyes, and his heart that should have been proud was now forgotten because of the anger in the woman's eyes, and was replaced by a struggle without warning.
"Knowing that he can't do it, the prince also opened Luo Jing's eyes" The anger still did not decrease slightly, she stared at him, but there was a trace of pity and disdain in her eyes.
"Don't look at me like this" hurriedly dodged those eyes full of disdain, and the struggling emotions took root and sprouted in his heart without a trace: "What you know you can't do, what this king wants will never be easily handed over, even if he lets it, this king will get it back a thousand times over"
A moment of anger, confiding too much sadness in his heart, but all this was also beyond his expectations, these words, those buried in the heart for many years, have already turned into a sharp thorn, deep into the heart of the memory surging up again, he thought that he had forgotten what the pain was, he thought that when he touched it again, the heart would no longer be painful, the pain of eating bones, but he did not expect that when he recalled all this, he still could not restrain the memories that swept in his heart like the waves of the river, so that he once again sank and could not extricate himself.
