Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Untold Secret
"From ancient times to the present, the courtesy of kings and ministers has never been insurmountable, and the king should know better than anyone else" opened her mouth faintly, Nangong Luo Jing turned her head to stare at the darkness outside the window, staring at the darkness in her eyes, she couldn't see everything in front of her, she only felt a little confused suddenly, such a dark night seemed to be able to precipitate too many feelings in her heart, but it was those precipitated feelings that made her feel scared and uneasy.
"Understood" groaned, and never heard a sound again, only to see that under the halo, Lan Lingxuan lowered his eyes and pondered, and his long eyelashes cast a long projection under that fair face, making people unable to guess what emotions were in the heart of this king at this moment.
"Yes, this king knows better than anyone else" Whispering, Lan Lingxuan muttered Nangong Luo Jing's words just now, as if reminding himself.
Seeing Lan Lingxuan like this, Nangong Luo Jing's heart also seemed to have a trace of pity for the man in front of him.
Nangong Luo Jing didn't know what to say to comfort him, so he could only stand at a distance from him and look at him quietly.
The silence spread, and the atmosphere in the room became more and more dull, but he was unwilling to break it, and Nangong Luo Jing would not break it.
"You're just like them, are you afraid of me" When Nangong Luo Jing was struggling to say something, Lan Lingxuan had already opened her mouth before her.
I'm afraid, Lan Lingxuan, can I say I'm afraid of you.
"Don't be afraid" After thinking for a long time, Nangong Luo Jing suppressed the true thoughts in his heart and slowly opened his mouth.
"Don't be afraid," he smiled, listening to the soft voice with a hint of imperceptible hesitation, and his heart only felt more and more ridiculous.
Nangong Luojing looked at the man in front of her inexplicably, only to feel that his smile had too much meaning, which made her chill for a while.
"If you're not afraid, why do you always run away from me?"
The low voice fell on the side of his ears, and with the warm breath pouring out in his neck and ears, Nangong Luojing frowned tightly.
At some point, the man leaning against the window was already behind him, and he was so close.
As the sudden temperature around his waist spread, Nangong Luojing's body slowly became tense.
Although it is not uncommon for him to hold himself like this from behind, it seems that there is too much ambiguity in this situation.
"Everyone in the world can be afraid of me, only you, only you can't know" whispered gently, he was close to her ear, and he spoke so clearly in her ear, but before she could speak again, Lan Lingxuan opened her mouth again: "Tell me, you are not afraid of me" said softly and with some domineering, the hot and humid touch followed, and even found that the man lying on his shoulder at the moment seemed to be a little swaying, and he couldn't even stand steadily.
After careful identification, Nangong Luo Jing found that the man behind him seemed to have a hint of drunkenness.
"You have drunk" frowned slightly, her eyes glanced at the man who was leaning on her shoulder, and suddenly felt that this man's eyebrows were a little less immature, and there was a deep outline on his facial features
"No, no," he leaned on her shoulder, shaking his head vigorously in denial, like a child doing something wrong.
The pain came from her shoulder, and she groaned softly, Nangong Luo Jing frowned fiercely, wanting to let the man who was leaning on her shoulder leave, but no matter what she did, she couldn't let him leave her shoulder.
Taking a deep breath, she sighed helplessly, causing the man lying on his shoulder to suddenly move.
I don't know how long it lasted, Nangong Luo Jing heard the man's low voice fall: "There are some words, you are willing to listen to me, this king is not, it is me, I want to say it, I am so tired" He needed someone to wait quietly beside him, listen to him, talk about everything in his past, and say that he never wanted to touch the past.
Tired, there was a touch in her heart, she let him flip on her shoulders indiscriminately, her breath was entangled, and she felt pity for the man in front of her from the bottom of her heart.
"She's not my mother, I'm not the prince of Dongyang, and I don't even know who I am" The drunkenness gradually hit his brain, and even he didn't know whether he was really drunk, or, he just wanted to find an excuse for himself, find someone to pour out the unknown things that were suppressed in his heart, perhaps, the reason why he was "drunk", that's all.
Hearing him tell this shocking secret in person without warning, Nangong Luo Jing only felt that even his heartbeat had missed a beat.
finally understood that her feelings were not wrong, but she would never have thought that they were mother and son who were not related by blood.
"You must ask how is it possible, right" The smile spread, although he couldn't see his expression at the moment, Nangong Luojing could still imagine what kind of smile should be on that handsome face at this moment, it was a bitter smile, and maybe it was also sad to the bottom of his heart.
He asked and answered himself, all the words seemed to be just his monologue, and Nangong Luojing was just the object he needed to listen to him.
"It's ridiculous, the king of Dongyang is not the biological son of the king of Dongyang, he is really laughing and generous" was originally a depressed tone, and suddenly after the last sentence of "laughing and generous", his laughter made people feel a little sad.
The language was always so pale, and he said those words as if those words could not hurt him, and he kept repeating those self-deprecating words in her ear, the more meaningless the words, the more his heart was exposed to her, in fact, he hated his own existence.
"How about being a descendant of the old East King, not a descendant of the East King" She smiled, a soft smile like a spring breeze: "The king is a capable person who lives in it, isn't it, if the East King doesn't really have this ability, how can he sit on this throne steadily?"
She deeply felt that when her voice fell, the man's body suddenly stiffened, and it was difficult to move.
"Why didn't you tell me like she did, that you were not worthy to be the king of this country, that you were not worthy of what she said that day, that every night appeared in my dreams, that I could not shake it, that I could not disperse, what should I do?"
Nangong Luo Jing didn't know how long this matter had tormented him, but from his voice and his words, she could hear the pain in this man's heart.
"What the king of the east wants to do, isn't he already doing it, govern the country, treat the people well, the people will not lose their happiness and peace because their king is not a pure-blooded royal family, that's all the king should do" smiled suddenly, she buried a trace of helplessness floating on her face, and said faintly, but there is another thought in her heart, it is your responsibility to be a good king, if you let the people of Weiguo and Xiling suffer from the flames of war, Lan Lingxuan, you will be the person I Nangong Luo Jing hate the most.
"That's all there is to it, why, you would say something like this, Jing'er" The force of the circle around the woman's waist increased, and at this moment, he wanted to embed her in his body, and he would never let go again, and she would not run away from his body.
He never imagined that the words that had been bothering him would get the answers he most wanted from her.
The night was deeper, and Lan Lingxuan left Mengjing Xuan when he arrived, and Nangong Luojing, who had been surrounded by Lan Lingxuan, was already full of fatigue after Lan Lingxuan left, and he didn't have the strength to think too much about the plan he had been planning all along.
He lay down on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
When Nangong Luojing opened her eyes, it was when the morning light was slightly dewed, her eyes flowed, and when she finally stayed on the shallow light through the window, the thoughts that had stopped working jumped clearly into her mind at the dawn of the morning.
Stepping off the bed, Nangong Luo Jing walked forward slowly, thinking about today's plan uncontrollably in his heart.
Today is a rare opportunity for her, today Lan Lingxuan went back to worship the heavens, this happened to be the best time for her to take advantage of today to escape from this golden world.
If nothing happens today, she should be able to get out of here.
"Miss, you're awake" The abrupt voice disrupted the rhythm of Nangong Luojing's methodical arrangement of his thoughts.
Mei'er walked slowly into the room with the silver basin, and when she reached the dresser, she stopped, and after carefully putting down her things, she walked to the bed and made up the bedding on the bed.
While tidying up, he didn't forget to say: "Miss, wait, Mei'er will clean up here after tidying up, and I'll freshen up for Miss"
Skillful movements, this is what Mei'er does every day, she folded the futon layer by layer as usual, but when she saw the dark red on the white bed, her heart moved, and her delicate little face became like a ripe apple, and the color of shame was obvious.
The white mattress was stained with blood, and she couldn't help but think of the king who left last night.
She has never experienced anything about men and women, but she still knows a little about it.
"Miss" squeaked, Mei'er paused her hand, didn't know what to say, was silent for a moment, and then stopped saying nothing, just silently cleaned up the stained white mattress on the bed, lowered her head and ran out quickly, leaving Nangong Luojing looking at her hurried figure disappearing in front of her eyes in surprise.
I didn't have time to stop her, so I saw her run out like a gust of wind, and before I could think about it, a burst of pain came from my lower abdomen, an irrepressible pain.
With a deep groan, Nangong Luo Jing thought that it seemed that it was time to calculate the time of this month's Kwai Shui, and thinking of Mei'er's appearance of running out after receiving the white mattress just now, she also understood a little, which eliminated the strange feeling in her heart.
