Chapter 295: Royal Mission
After Dugu Xuerou finished asking, she directly slapped the back of the soldier's neck with a palm knife, knocking him unconscious, and then jumped to the mountains again, shuttling through the dense forest.
"Xiao Jingcong, where have you been?" Dugu Xuerou secretly swore in her heart, "No matter where you go, I will find you!" This time, you won't be able to escape the palm of my hand! ”
……
Deep in a dense forest in northern Xinjiang, the courtyard of the prince's mansion in Yuanxia.
After Yan Zixi finished dinner, she thought about going out for a walk and eliminating her appetite. After negotiations with Li Yuanxiao, she was finally able to get out of the house, but she was only able to wander around this courtyard, followed by guards and maids, and wanted to get out of the house - it was even more difficult than ascending to the sky.
Yan Zixi had already dispelled the idea of sneaking out, this courtyard was heavily guarded, Li Yuanxiao's eyeliner was everywhere, and flies couldn't get in or out, how could she, a weak woman who didn't know martial arts, escape with her own strength.
What's more, Li Yuanxiao also served himself with good food and drink, and he didn't slack off at all, so there was no problem staying here for the time being.
Yan Zixi, under the supervision of the guards and maids, came to the front garden, and happened to see Li Yuanxiao sitting in the pavilion drinking alone.
Li Yuanxiao under the moon is so poignant, today he is wearing a hair and describing himself as a lot haggard, I don't know why he is worried.
Yan Zixi walked over curiously and came to the stone bench in front of Li Yuanxiao and sat down.
Li Yuanxiao saw that Yan Zixi was coming, put down the wine jug in his hand, hooked his lips and smiled coldly, "Princess Xiao, can I see you taking the initiative to find me?" ”
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, did something happen, why did you have such an ugly face and drink so much wine?" Yan Zixi asked the doubts in her heart in one breath, after all, the current Li Yuanxiao was not what she knew.
Li Yuanxiao, whom Yan Zixi knows, is always dressed in white clothes, dusty, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and there is a sense of confidence and mystery in his gestures.
Li Yuanxiao, who is so haggard and decadent as tonight, Yan Zixi is the first time to see him.
Li Yuanxiao shook his head and replied with a little bitterness: "It's nothing, life is unsatisfactory nine times out of ten......
"This is not the Prince Yuanxia I know!" Yan Zixi replied seriously.
"Oh, really?" Li Yuanxiao also seemed to be interested, and couldn't help but ask: "I don't know what kind of person I, Li Yuanxiao, am in the eyes of Princess Xiao?" 139 Reading Network
Yan Zixi heard the question, pondered slightly for a while, and then replied with a serious face: "Although I have known His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for a short time, I can see that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a person with pursuit and taste...... Although you usually look very chic and open-minded, there are some unspeakable hidden things buried in your heart...... I don't know why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is distressed, can you talk to me, the princess of Daxiao? ”
When Li Yuanxiao heard this, he picked up the wine jug again and drank a few sips, and only after drinking it did he raise his head and laugh and said: "My Yuanxia is a small country in the southwest, and I have been struggling to survive under the oppression of Beiliang and Daxiao all the year round, and I am always worried about the ...... of the country."
After a slight pause, Li Yuanxiao's voice became hoarse, "Since I was born, my father and my mother have regarded me as the hope of Yuanxia, and they have instilled in me the idea of strengthening the country and the army since I was a child. Train me to be a puppet without any feelings, and only know how to give everything for Yuan Xia! They...... They never cared about my feelings, they cared about what I wanted, not even for a moment! ”
“…… Even...... Even my name, Yuan Xiao, was given to fight against your Great Xiao, just to let me never forget that there is a powerful Xiao Kingdom around Yuan Xia! ”
Hearing this, Yan Zixi was silent, she didn't expect that although Li Yuanxiao was the prince of Yuanxia, he would be the monarch of Yuanxia Kingdom in the future, his childhood, and his life experience would be so painful. The children of the royal family all have their own troubles, whether it is Xiao Jingcong who was born in the powerful country Daxiao, or Li Yuanxiao who was born in the weak country Yuanxia, they do not have the right to choose their own path, from birth to adulthood, they are all accepting the irresistible and prepared road!
How many people can understand the bitterness, pain and helplessness?!
In the past, Yan Zixi felt that the princes and princesses filmed in the TV series and movies said that they did not want to be born in the emperor's family, and would rather be an ordinary person, these are all fake, but now it seems that maybe these princes and princesses really once envied the lives of ordinary people and lived that kind of simple and ordinary life.
The mission and responsibility of the royal family weighed on them like a great mountain, leaving them breathless.
At this moment, Yan Zixi even thought that Li Yuanxiao and Xiao Jingcong were actually people all the way, the only difference was that they were in different environments, and the responsibilities and missions they were carrying were also different.
Thinking of this, Yan Zixi couldn't help but feel sorry for Li Yuanxiao, and even sympathized with him.
Seeing the painful look of tears in Li Yuanxiao's eyes, Yan Zixi didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only sit on the side and look at Li Yuanxiao in front of him without saying a word.
I don't know how long it took for Li Yuanxiao's mood to calm down a little, and he drank the little wine left in the pot, and Li Yuanxiao said to Yan Zixi dumbly.
"I'm sorry, Princess Xiao, I said a lot of inexplicable things tonight, which confused you......"
"It's okay, Your Royal Highness the Prince, I know the boredom and sorrow in your heart, I really want to help you......" Yan Zixi bit her red lip and tried to persuade again, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, you and my husband are actually all the way, and he has also borne the mission and responsibility of the royal family since childhood, why can't you become confidants and friends, but fight each other to the death?" Can't Da Xiao and Yuan Xia live together peacefully? ”
Li Yuanxiao chuckled, "Peaceful coexistence?!" Hehe, how can there be such a good thing in this world? If everyone can be as kind and thoughtful as Princess Xiao, how can there be so many disputes between countries for many years? ”
"This ...... Maybe I can't understand it......" Yan Zixi couldn't find the words, so she could only move the reason from a film and television work in her memory, "People can't truly and completely understand and tolerate each other, that's why there are so many conflicts and disputes in the world......"
"Don't understand? Maybe it......" Li Yuanxiao nodded slightly, looked up at the waning moon hanging in the night sky, both of them fell silent, the air seemed to become restless again, the sound of insects chirping came from time to time in the courtyard, and the night wind blew, brushing Yan Zixi's cheeks, blowing Li Yuanxiao's white clothes like jade, fluttering lightly......
