Gu Li didn't seem to feel pain, so he looked at Mu Qianxia's face motionlessly, trying to find the slightest hesitation or emotion from it.

But no.

Not a single bit.

Gu Li suddenly lowered his eyelids, suddenly held Mu Qianxia's hand, and pulled out the hairpin stiffly!

Although Mu Qianxia didn't understand the acupuncture points, the position she had just pierced would bleed as long as she was stabbed, especially when she pulled it out, blood splashed on their faces. Just a drop fell on Mu Qianxia's eyelashes, blurring her vision for a moment, but it was quickly wiped away by her cold raised hand.

The pain in his chest spread through the skin into his heart, throbbing violently one after another, and under Mu Qianxia's cold and resolute eyes, the pain reached its peak.

But Gu Li's handsome face had no waves, just like Mu Qianxia just now.

Gu Li's face was as pale as from excessive blood loss, but it didn't look clear in the backlight.

The corners of Gu Li's mouth hooked up a shallow arc, "Princess, I'm afraid it won't be as you wish this time." ”

"What do you mean?" Mu Qianxia frowned puzzled. Gu Li had successfully completed his task, and there was no need for him to be wronged to continue to stay in her small princess's mansion, or rather, it was time for him to go back to Dongqin.

Literally. The princess will not only see me in the future, but she will see me every day. Gu Li said lightly.

"Can you make it clear, things have come to this point, and you must have no need to hide it from me." Mu Qianxia said coldly.

"Princess, you're about to marry Dong Qin."

"I know this, so I don't need to tell me. At that time, I must have been facilitated by you to marry Dong Qin, right? "Actually, she really wronged Gu Li, for this matter, Gu Li was on her side at the beginning, and he didn't want Mu Qianxia to marry Gu Chenjing at all.

Gu Li didn't answer Mu Qianxia's question, as for the truth of the matter, it didn't matter what it was before this, and the matter of her marriage now was indeed facilitated by him, he has always believed that it doesn't matter what the process is, what matters is the simple and crude truth of the result. As for what it was before, it didn't matter, what she just said was indeed correct.

"Princess, after you finished speaking, the marriage partner has changed."

"What do you mean? If I don't marry Gu Chenjing, will I still marry you? Mu Qianxia asked with a sneer.

"Princess, you're right. The person you are about to marry is Gu. Gu Li smiled lightly.

"What?" Mu Qianxia exclaimed in disbelief, "I'm not married." Who agreed to this? Prince? ”

"The four princes of Western Chu, your future emperor of Western Chu." Gu Li patiently explained.

"It can't be! How could he accede to such an unreasonable demand? Mu Qianxia asked incredulously.

"If the princess doesn't marry Gu, Gu will immediately wave his troops to Xichu. You Xichu have just experienced a coup d'état, and the internal worries have not been completely lifted, how can you face external troubles? What's more, as long as there is a war, there will be casualties, there will be people and relatives at the same time, and it will cause the people to be displaced. Moreover, the princess must not want to bring such a catastrophe to hundreds of people in the world because of herself, right? ”

"How do you know that Princess Ben is unwilling?" She just felt pitiful for those people, and hoped that they would be spared death, and now that she was about to take care of herself, where would she have the energy to take care of this, not to mention that she didn't have the ability to manage even if she wanted to.

"Princess, you won't!" Gu Li said firmly. He understands Mu Qianxia, she has always been kind-hearted, and she will not see casualties, she will not put hundreds of people in danger because of herself. That's why he dared to threaten her with this.

Mu Qianxia hooked her lips and smiled bitterly, she really wouldn't. She is hard-mouthed, and if she is really asked to make a choice, she will choose to sacrifice herself. In her eyes, human life is born equal, there is no distinction between high and low, everyone will have their own relatives who die in pain, and this is the scene she doesn't want to see.

"Count you ruthless." Gu Li is really terrifying, he has touched everyone's hearts so thoroughly, I am afraid that no one can compare to him in terms of figuring out and using people's hearts. That's why he can't fight.

"Princess, isn't this what you wished?" Seeing Mu Qianxia's forced and reluctant look, Gu Li only felt a burst of anger, and a nameless fire surged into his heart.

"What do you mean by what I wanted to be?"

"It's not that the princess doesn't like Gu Chenjing, she likes ...... Me? ”

"Where did you hear that? When did Princess Ben say that? ”

Gu Li pursed his lips and suddenly smiled: "I heard it all at the time." ”

"What?" Being said by Gu Li's headless and brainless sentence made Mu Qianxia a little confused.

"A thousand years ago! Did the princess forget, this is what you said before, if you forget, do you need Gu to help the princess reminisce? ”

"You were pretending to be unconscious? You heard them all?! Mu Qianxia immediately changed color.

"Yes."

"You didn't suspect I was talking nonsense at the time?" As soon as she thought that Gu Li listened to all the words she said, Mu Qianxia couldn't help but feel embarrassed, at that time she really thought that Gu Li was unconscious and couldn't hear what she said, so she treated him as a tree hole, let go of what she wanted, and said everything that should be said and what should not be said.

For example, her biggest secret, and the fact that she likes him.

When the secret is exposed, it will be exposed, anyway, she has never cared about this identity, and Gu Li doesn't seem to want to spread the word, but-

Even though it was still in the cold winter, Mu Qianxia's face still couldn't help but heat slightly, if she knew that Gu Li was awake at that time, she wouldn't have said those words...... She simply introduced herself in front of Gu Li and ...... Long confession.

Those words, if she were talking to herself alone, would just vent it, let her say it to the object she likes, it was too sensual, too embarrassing, and she wouldn't have done it even if she was killed before.

Gu Li said warmly: "Why should I doubt it? Although what the princess said at the beginning sounded extremely incredible, but in a different place, if you think about it carefully, it is indeed reasonable, the world is full of wonders, we are only a very small speck of dust, how can we know everything, in this case, what reason do I have not to believe? ”

Gu Li's eyes were like water, his voice was soft, Mu Qianxia met his eyes, sighed in his heart, and looked away: "If it were someone else, I would never think like you." Presumably, those people burned me alive as a demon girl. No matter what Gu Li did to her, Mu Qianxia was actually full of admiration for him, he was different from others, he always looked calm and breezy, but he saw everything so thoroughly.

In this era, even herself, as a party concerned, took many days to accept this fact, but Gu Li accepted it simply and calmly, without questioning her or treating her as a madman. Even if it were herself, if someone else said these things to her, I was afraid that she would immediately take the other person for a madman. But Gu Li didn't, he calmly stood in her perspective and thought carefully, believing every word she said.

In the past, when she talked to Gu Li, sometimes because of some of her own concerns, she would always say something that had no beginning or end, but he never ignored it, nor did he keep asking, let alone laugh at her, but would think seriously and patiently express his opinions to her.

This kind of gentleness that seems to be inadvertently is the most unconsciously exciting, which is one of the most important reasons why she likes Gu Li. His gentleness, his thoughtfulness, and his indifference are all what she likes. But after a long time, she realized that it was just his personal habit. He is used to analyzing everything carefully, he is used to smiling at everyone like a spring breeze, he is used to caring about everyone's emotions, and this is the illusion that causes him to be gentle.

"You already knew my identity before, and you knew that I was a fake princess, why didn't you expose me?"

However, at this time, Mu Qianxia did not wait for Gu Li's answer, and what responded to her was a silence and the sound of the wind blowing from afar.

She raised her eyes to look, but saw that Gu Li's deep dark eyes were filled with a layer of dazedness, as if she didn't know her, and after a while, Gu Li asked in a low voice: "Since you have long suspected me and thought that I have a plan, maybe it is all hypocrisy, why did you choose to sacrifice yourself to save me later?" ”

What exactly does she want?

He is too good at conspiracy and calculation, too good at calculating gains and losses, and too accustomed to controlling the overall situation, he never thought that Mu Qianxia would choose to save him.

She said that her time was good and peaceful, and she said that she missed her family very much...... Isn't she afraid that she will accidentally lose her life in this world and never go back?

It's not that he doesn't know the love, kinship, friendship, and husband and wife in this world, he knows all of this, but his mind is too stable to shake for such a trivial matter, but he will overturn, manipulate and use these emotions.

For example, to Mu Qianxia, to the real eldest princess.

Mu Qianxia waited for a while, but didn't wait for Gu Li's answer, and her heart to know the answer gradually faded.

Mu Qianxia smiled self-deprecatingly in her heart, secretly laughing that she still couldn't let go of it at this point, even if it was in the house, but Mu Qianxia still began to feel cold, the kind that slowly spread from the depths of her heart. Although she said in her heart that she would die early and be born sooner, she stared at Gu Li and said word by word: "Gu Li, I liked you so much before...... So, did you have a little bit from beginning to end...... Like me a little? In fact, from beginning to end, what she wanted to know most was just this sentence.

Her eyes were clear and clear, and she looked at him without shying away.

Put aside all reserves and doubts, give up all scruples, and never have a moment so honest and generous to say what you think. Even if she and Gu Li have come to this point now, she still wants to know Gu Li's answer. Even if she hated him from this day forward, she still wanted to know his answer.

This is what people call ...... Be persistent.
