Volume 1: The Palace's Storm Chapter 22: Nature is willing to lie on your bed
The carriage quickly sent the two of them to the Regent's Palace, and Xiao Qi helped Lu Ziyue get out of the carriage and took out a piece of silver from his purse and handed it to the coachman.
The two of them entered the gate.
"Princess, Xiao Qi feels a little tired and wants to go back to the room to rest first, so I can't accompany the princess to find the princess."
Xiao Qifu body, her face was full of tiredness, as if she was extremely tired.
In this way, Lu Ziyue did not force her to go with him. It just so happened that Xiao Qi was not there, and she could also talk to Shen Xie about some things.
went to Shen Yuan alone with his skirt.
The lights in Shen Yuan's study were very dim, and Shen Xie did not deal with government affairs in front of the desk, but lay down on the chaise longue at the back of the bungalow to rest.
His face was thick with tiredness, as if he hadn't rested for a long time.
Bypassing the cloak and walking in front of him, the dim light showed that the man's facial features were more resolute, but it made people feel that he was like a heavenly god, and he didn't dare to touch it easily.
Lu Ziyue sighed, sat on a chair next to the chaise longue, closed her eyes and said: "I have almost dealt with the matter on King Anyang's side, and Princess Anyang is also willing to accept the matter of sending the eldest young master over as a proton, but from their matter, I also have a doubt about you, King Regent." ”
The voice was soft, but Shen Xie still heard it clearly.
He sat up and looked at Lu Ziyue, her face with heavy makeup had great doubts, wondering if there was something underneath, but the light was too dim, and he really couldn't see clearly.
Then he said, "What doubts do you have?" ”
"A lot, for example, whether the prince is hiding something from me, or whether the prince has a woman outside behind my back, or that the prince wants to go behind my back and deal with all the things about me but doesn't let me know."
Lu Ziyue became a little aggressive as she spoke, she stood up and looked at Shen Xie condescendingly, the light in her eyes was dim.
"The prince said, can you solve my doubts for me?"
Lu Ziyue's sudden questioning made Shen Xie still not know what was going on, but he was never the kind of man who stood still and let others ask him.
Even if the truth is not in his hands, Shen Xie will use his mouth to say that the black is white.
Even if the woman standing in front of him now is the one he really loves, nothing will change.
Tiredness disappeared from his mind, he sat up straight, his eyes flashing with sharp light, his thin lips moving slightly, and there was a faint anger churning in his chest.
"Are you threatening me now?"
"You think I mean that?" Lu Ziyue sneered, "Didn't the prince tell me a long time ago, if you have any questions, I can come and ask you?" Didn't you say that there shouldn't be too many secrets between husband and wife, and they shouldn't do things that are bad for each other behind each other's backs? ”
She didn't know why, as long as she talked to Shen Xie recently, she couldn't control her anger, and she would ridicule him when she spoke.
Many times two people have not really started to cut to the point, and they end a conversation hastily because of each other's tempers.
She really wanted to try to change this state, but both of them knew that this time was different, and many things would change their state of mind after they happened, and it was not a question of whether they wanted to or not.
She has a bad attitude, and Shen Xie doesn't have a good temper.
"I do things, I do it after weighing the interests, I have never done anything unfavorable to you, from the beginning of the destruction of the country, I hid the news, I was afraid that you would not be able to bear this blow after you suddenly knew, and then your parents were imprisoned, I didn't tell you at the first time, and I was afraid that you would be hurt because of this."
Shen Xie never thought that he was sorry for Lu Ziyue in anything, and wars between countries have never been decided by one person.
From the proposal of a war, to the various preparations below, it is not something that can be done by one person.
Moreover, the huge benefits brought by the victory of the war are not all piled on one person.
Since he had no way to prevent the outbreak of this war, he could only do his best to maximize the benefits of this war.
Don't let the people who watch the excitement pick up the cheap.
Of course, these truths are very simple truths, and Lu Ziyue understands them in his heart.
The reason why she has been holding on to this matter is also very simple, it is nothing more than that she herself is both the party who is benefited and the party who is wronged.
"You said things so high-soundingly, saying that you did all this for me, then I would like to ask you, why do you want to hide it from me, the soldiers and civilians of the Great Yue Kingdom want to see me?"
Her eyes were inexplicably red, and her heart was filled with pinprick pain.
The voice gradually became choked: "Are you doing this for my own good?" They are so eager to see me, so they expect to be able to see the hope of a country in me, why do you want to extinguish this little hope with your own hands? ”
Shen Xie's eyes narrowed when he heard this, the residents of Dayue Kingdom wanted to see her This matter was very well hidden, and few people in the whole country knew about it at present.
How did Lu Ziyue know?
Could it be that Mu Chi Yu told her when he went to Anyang Wangfu today?
No, Mu Chiyu is a smart person, even if he knows about this matter, it is impossible for him to take it out and publicize it, let alone tell Lu Ziyue.
In this way, there is only one possibility left, that is, there are still some remnants of the Great Yue Kingdom, and these remnants are lurking by Lu Ziyue's side, often telling her some news about the Great Yue Kingdom.
Even so, Shen Xie didn't have anything to say, he suddenly grabbed Lu Ziyue's wrist, and his five fingers gradually closed.
"I have never forced you to do anything, nor have I said that you have to do things according to my wishes, but there is one thing, Lu Ziyue, I must remind you that you have been married to Shen Guo five years ago, and since that time, the relationship between Da Yue Guo and you has become very thin, at most that country is just your home country for you, you quarreled with me before, I can understand that you are worried about your parents, but now if you still mess with me, forgive me for not having such a good temper and tolerating you again and again."
Shen Xie doesn't have a good temper now, or rather, Lu Ziyue's recent repeated yin and yang weirdness makes him plan to tear his face with her.
"Okay." Lu Ziyue looked at him with wide eyes, "I won't mess with you again in the future, you're right, since I'm already married to you, then naturally I should focus on your country's affairs, Shen Xie, what you said is right, but I also want you to remember one thing, I don't need you to tolerate me, I just need you to give me the respect I deserve, and I hope you can do it well what you promised me, otherwise I can't guarantee that I will do anything to make you lose face at your enthronement ceremony in half a month." ”
"You're threatening me?"
Shen Xie let go of Lu Ziyue's wrist and said this sentence for the second time today.
"Isn't my threatening tone strong enough that His Royal Highness the Lord Regent can't hear it?" Lu Ziyue was also in a state of broken jars, "If His Royal Highness the Prince Regent can save the lives of my parents, then the two of us can live in peace, if you can't, then you can only change to a queen in half a month, I have figured it out recently, I will no longer beg you like I did a few days ago, pin all my hopes on you, and let you humiliate me." ”
Lu Ziyue has already figured it out, if her father and queen mother can't live well, then she has no interest in living alone in this world. It's better to die with them.
It was the first time Shen Xie had seen her so resolutely, and he really didn't expect that Lu Ziyue would talk to him with such a mentality in just a day or two.
In this way, he can only compromise.
"Okay, I can promise you about your father and queen mother, I will let them live well, and I will not send them to that stone prison, there is a courtyard in the palace, and they will live in it for a long time, but there is one thing, you will not be able to see them again in your life, and this is the biggest concession I can make."
Shen Xie had to ensure that his imperial power would not be affected by any factors, even Lu Ziyue could not affect what he had to do.
"Okay, since that's the case, then I'll take a step back, I won't go to see those soldiers and civilians in Da Yue Kingdom, I just don't know about it myself, and I won't bother you with these things in the future, although the two of us can't go back to the past, but at least we can continue to live respectfully."
She pressed out the turbid air from her lungs, breathed a breath of fresh air, and remembered Shen Xie's face in the dim candlelight: "Let's do it first." ”
"Huh."
Shen Xie heard what she said so much, and finally understood that this woman was here to trick herself today, maybe from the beginning, she did have the intention to meet those irrelevant people.
But after thinking about it, she may also understand that those people will not bring any benefit to herself, but will anger herself.
Lu Ziyue has really become smarter in the recent events one after another.
"You said that even if the two of us can't go back to the past, we can still live with respect, then I ask you, are you still willing to lie on my bed willingly?"
He may have been stimulated by what he had just said, and his words were full of thorns: "I need more than just a queen of the world. ”
"Why not?" Lu Ziyue hooked his lips and smiled, "Since the prince is willing to make this deal with me, how can I not be willing to pay the price I should pay?" ”
After speaking, he glanced at the chaise longue where Shen Xie was lying, and said with a smile: "As long as the prince is willing, the concubine will not have any complaints, but there is one more point, Ah Pei has been arrested and locked up by the prince for so long, and it is time to release it." ”
